Chapter 32: Peach Blossoms on a Snowy Night (Part II)
Lin Yuxiao and Yue Linfeng are siblings, Liu Yiyi would never dare to say bad things about Yue Linfeng in front of him, and from her heart, Yue Linfeng was very good to her, so good, so good that it annoyed her.
This can't be said clearly, "When we met for the first time, Yiyi cried when she saw Lord Lin, so that Lord Lin was misunderstood, can you be angry with Yiyi?" ”
"It's not enough to be angry, it's just a little weird."
At that time, Liu Yiyi explained that he was out of shape and said, "I just thought of the strange case in Mengzhou City when I saw Qincha, if the two adults could come a few days earlier, there would not be so many people who died......"
Not to mention that this is used to deal with Lin Yuxiao, Liu Yiyi herself felt that it didn't work when she thought about it later-there were two Qincha, why did she stare at Lin Yuxiao and cry stupidly?
"If Yiyi said that it was the first time to meet Lord Lin but it was not the first time, would Lord Lin think that the little girl was talking nonsense?" Liu Yiyi asked very seriously.
Lin Yuxiao didn't answer, he looked up at the sky: "It's snowing." ”
It really snowed, and it was small snow particles that fell one after another, and then turned into snowflakes, and after a while, a layer of silver-white was spread around it, including the lantern in Liu Yiyi's hand.
The light of the lantern began to weaken, it was not that the snow wet the candle, but that the candle was about to burn out, Liu Yiyi plucked up the courage to speak: "Lord Lin, there is a hotel in front of our Liu family, can you let Yiyi change the candle and avoid the snow by the way?" ”
Lin Yuxiao's walking at night is no different from that during the day, but he has to consider Liu Yiyi, if the candle goes out and the road is slippery, wouldn't it be more troublesome if he falls? "Okay."
“…… This is ......" Liu Yiyi gave directions, and walked more than 50 meters ahead, it was a two-story restaurant on the side of the street with lights on, and the door of the store on the first floor was empty, and it opened with a push of his hand.
There was no one in the restaurant, the tables and chairs were brand new, and it looked very empty and deserted in the middle of the night in the New Year.
Liu Yiyi regretted inviting people in here a little, but finally someone brought it, so she could only continue: "This is given to Yiyi by my father, it has just been renovated and has not opened, usually there are only two guards here, at this time they should have rested, Lord Lin, please sit down, I will go to the back to find out what to eat." ”
The restaurant was lit with oil lamps, Lin Yuxiao didn't sit and wait, he went to inspect the oil lamps, a total of five oil lamps illuminated the hall very brightly, only half of the lamp oil in each lamp was left, and the time had been burning for half an hour.
Liu Yiyi actually didn't lie, this restaurant is one of the dowries that Master Liu gave to his daughter, and it was decided only in Layue last year, because the original "Liu Yiyi" had to know nothing about business, so the dowry prepared by Master Liu was all real money, but what should happen to all the shops of the Liu family in the future? He was worried all the time.
Master Liu doesn't ask his daughter to be as long-sleeved as a boy, as long as she can read the account book, each store has its own capable shopkeeper, she only needs to analyze whether they are loyal from the profit point of view, but unfortunately "Liu Yiyi" is confused when she sees the numbers, and often falls asleep on the account book.
Last year, Zhang Yi wore it, and Mr. Liu found that his daughter was a little sensible and interested in cooking, so he planned to try to teach her again, and specially reopened a restaurant, starting from the most basic to what he liked.
The weather was cold, and Liu Yiyi stored all kinds of ingredients in the kitchen of the restaurant, so that when Master Liu brought her over and pointed out the rules of her ancient business, she could do her filial piety in the underground kitchen.
Being able to invite Lin Yuxiao to eat alone, the mood is naturally different from usual, Liu Yiyi is like a dream, looking at a bunch of ingredients, she can't wait to turn them into a full Han banquet and serve them on the table, and she can capture the stomach of the male god outside at once.
"Ahem, it's cold and snowy outside, can this boy let Xiaosheng come in to avoid the cold?" Someone pushed the door of the store and came in, and then knocked twice on the door and asked Lin Yuxiao in the hall.
Lin Yuxiao was not surprised, and smiled as if watching the excitement: "Still thinking about when you will come in, how about it?" It's cold outside, right? ”
"Cold, Mengzhou has not snowed so much in winter for many years, the weather has been abnormal since last winter, there are rumors on the market that the ghosts of those rich people who died in vain are not gone, so it always snows, if you don't solve the case again, there will be many people who go to the capital, and the emperor should have a headache at that time." The visitor said while warming his hands.
"Soon, we'll go back to the capital when the spring flowers bloom." Lin Yuxiao smiled faintly.
When he said this, he locked the target, and the people who came no longer asked about it, and he also looked around at the hall: "The decoration is quite new, but what's the use of lighting an oil lamp in winter, who wants to stay here for a long time when it's so cold?" Why are you the only one? What about the people who brought you here? Won't you have to go back to add clothes from the cold? ”
“…… Said he was going to get something to eat. Lin Yuxiao just waited to see what she could come up with.
"Good food, Miss Liu's cooking skills are good, I'm also curious about what she will do today, don't you mind if I wait?" The people who came were interested in participating, but first they had to respect Lin Yuxiao, and if Lin Daren thought he was "in the way", he would leave immediately.
"Why not." Lin Yuxiao doesn't matter.
So when Liu Yiyi came out with the wine and food she had carefully prepared, not only did she see Lin Yuxiao, who was still waiting, but also one person was sitting at the dinner table.
"Du Xiaobawang!?" Liu Yiyi was startled, and the tray almost couldn't hold it.
Du Shaonan hurriedly got up to pick it up: "Be careful not to spill it, you can still have wine and food in the middle of the night on this snowy day, it's really good luck!" Thank you, Ms. Liu. ”
Liu Yiyi was so surprised that she let him take away the wine and food, and watched the little overlord put the wine and food on the table in a row, there were two sets of dishes and chopsticks, one for him and one for Lin Yuxiao.
"The dishes are good...... Du Shaonan looked at Liu Yiyi's carefully prepared dishes, a plate of vegetarian assortment, a plate of scrambled eggs with leeks, these two are home-cooked dishes, and the largest plate in the middle is particularly conspicuous and beautiful.
"What kind of dish is this?" Du Shaonan pointed and asked, his tone was like asking the shopkeeper of the restaurant.
Liu Yiyi didn't want to pay attention to him at all, but Lin Yuxiao was also interested in her carefully prepared dishes, and turned her head to look at her, of course she had to introduce: "This dish is called Peach Blossom on a Snowy Night, Lord Lin, please see, the white and round in the middle is spread out with egg white, like a snow-white full moon?" The flowers and plants around here are made with ham and minced coriander......"
As soon as she introduced the dishes she cooked herself, Liu Yiyi was habitually very serious, and at this time she could still remember being courteous to Lin Yuxiao, but she completely ignored someone who came uninvited: "...... The focus of this dish is the snow moon, and the flowers on these moons, these flowers are shelled and sliced with prawns, and they are thickened with tomato sauce and stacked in the middle of the snow moon. ”
"It's really a peach blossom!" Du Shaonan didn't look at people's faces at all, and smiled at Lin Yuxiao.
Liu Yiyi blushed when he said it, so she could only pretend not to hear it.
Du Shaonan also had something to say: "Miss Liu's sincere invitation should always make people full, three dishes are too few, you can order another one of the rain flute, but the kitchen stove must still be prosperous." ”
Lin Yuxiao looked at the three dishes, the name of the peach blossom on a snowy night is good, but it is not full, one large plate is only thinly spread on a layer, and the other two dishes are small plates, "Then do you want a home-cooked dish and fried tenderloin softly?" He asked softly about the daughter of the Liu family.
"Okay." Liu Yiyi immediately nodded and agreed, how could she let Lin Yuxiao not be full.
"Then add a piece of sugar crispy fried meat, by the way, there is also a dessert after the meal, this is whatever, anyway, I don't care if Yu Xiao likes sweets, but unfortunately there is no staple food, it would be nice if there were some steamed buns, pancakes and the like......" Du Shaonan nodded endlessly.
Liu Yiyi simply ignored him, smiled at Lin Yuxiao and said, "Please wait." Then he went back to the kitchen.
Du Shaonan saw that her background was gone, so he squeezed his eyebrows at Lin Yuxiao again: "Your dessert after dinner is not worried, but I'm worried about my sugar crispy fried pork, why don't you help me say it again?" ”
Lin Yuxiao sat lazily, holding chopsticks in his hand: "I'm also worried, I'm going to the kitchen and wait to come out again, what else is left on the table." ”
"I'm not you." Du Shaonan was busy eating when he saw him, and he had to act fast when he ate with Lin Yuxiao, otherwise there would only be empty plates left after a while.
When Liu Yiyi brought out another tray, the three dishes on the table were all empty, Du Shaonan was not even half full, but the gluttonous worm hooked it, and when he saw that there were vegetables again, he hurriedly got up to pick up the tray.
There are three more dishes in the tray, soft-fried tenderloin, fried pork with sugar, and shredded apples.
Du Shaonan was a little moved in an instant, she actually cooked for him: "Miss Liu has worked hard, sit down and eat ...... together" He took the initiative to give up his seat and his tone was sincere.
Sure enough, blocking the mouth of the foodie has to do what he likes, Liu Yiyi didn't want to fry the plate of sugar crispy fried meat, but she didn't look good when she thought about it alone, I was afraid that Lin Yuxiao would misunderstand her and not be virtuous and reasonable, after all, this Du Xiaobawang is the queen's cousin, and she has to get by on face.
Du Shaonan was able to pull out the chair in person and invite her to sit opposite Lin Yuxiao, Liu Yiyi's impression of him was a little better, and thanked her for sitting down and watching Lin Yuxiao and Du Shaonan continue to eat.
Lin Yuxiao also tasted the fried pork with sugar crisp, which made Liu Yiyi not regret stir-frying this dish more, and his eating action was also extremely elegant, especially when there was a little bully on the side to make a comparison, Liu Yiyi looked at it with a smile, she felt that she would not get tired of watching it for the rest of her life.
"Why doesn't Miss Liu eat it?" Du Shaonan is definitely a kind reminder that if you don't eat these three plates, it will be empty.
Liu Yiyi thought he was noisy, so Lin Yuxiao also looked up to pay attention to her, she was embarrassed to stare at others anymore, so she had to move her hand to get the chopsticks, and this time she looked down and found that only half of the three dishes were left.
This Du Xiaobawang is too edible! "Lord Lin, do you want to make a few more dishes?" She was afraid that he would not have enough to eat.
"No, it's time to finish eating these early, we should go." It was Du Shaonan who rushed to decide.
