Chapter 82: Let's Taste It
The first day of the Lunar New Year, a new year and a new atmosphere. Qian Ning got up early, stood under the porch, looked at the clear sky, the sunshine all over, stretched her waist greatly, and was refreshed.
"Grandma, but you're going to say hello?" Feng'er bent down slightly and asked Qianning softly what she meant.
Because it is the New Year, the old marquis and Tian have already sent a message yesterday, so there is no need to come over early in the morning to say goodbye, so that everyone can sleep well. Having said that, Qian Ning didn't think that she really didn't need to ask for peace, and asked Mengying quietly, knowing that it would be okay to go a little later, so she slept a little more today.
Seeing that the hour was not early, Qian Ning bowed: "Let's go." He turned his head again and asked Dew, "The reward for the subordinates has been distributed?" ”
The New Year's convention is to give the people in the courtyard a New Year's reward, listening to Yuxuan's people got two new clothes in the house a year ago, and now they have a silver reward, they are all happy.
What's more, Qianning is not stingy, and the reward silver given is not at all less than that of Yunhuatang and Yongmeizhai, which makes some people who originally thought that Qianning did not marry much and that the silver reward would be mean.
Lu Shui remembered that everyone was grateful to Qianning, and she was a little surprised in her heart, but she was also relieved that Qianning had captured people's hearts: "It was sent out early this morning, and everyone is a two-month monthly case." ”
Qian Ning nodded, during the New Year's holidays, there should be no less people to be sent, and there are few people who do things without asking for returns, only when the rewards are rich, people will work hard, this point, Qian Ning has a deep understanding in the Lu family.
Hearing that the dew had been done, Qian Ning glanced at her appreciatively: "That's good, let's go, we can't let my grandfather and grandmother wait for a long time." ”
When they arrived at Zhenghai Courtyard, Cui's, Lian Chengmei and others had already arrived, and they were talking auspicious words around Tian's side. Seeing Qianning coming in, Lian Chengmei was the first to say, "Oh, Sister Lu is finally here, but did she sleep late yesterday?" Grandmother said a long time ago that she didn't have to get up early to say hello today, so why did my sister come early, she should sleep a little longer. ”
Even Chengmei's words were thorny, and somehow, early in the morning to find fault, could it be that he was still calculating the matter of picking up dishes for Zhao Luoyan at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet? Qian Ning secretly thought about it, but her mouth was unkind: "I got the order of my uncle and aunt last night, guarding a few younger sisters, where can I be like a sister, and go back to rest early?" Is my sister in good health now? ”
What Qian Ning said, didn't you point out that Lian Chengmei's body was delicate, and she went back to rest when she was sick and painful. Lian Chengmei wanted to sarcastically say a few words about Qianning, but she didn't think that she had made a face, bit her lip, and asked Xiang Mengqian instead: "Second sister, I was unwell yesterday and couldn't play with you, and I don't know what you all played?" ”
Before Mengqian could answer, Mengying walked in in a huff: "Grandmother, mother, aunt, you can taste the dumplings we made by yourself." As he spoke, the maid in the back came in with a brocade box.
Tian was a little surprised, dumplings are the New Year's food eaten by ordinary people, Mengying has never seen a few daughters, why did she think of making dumplings? Just thinking about it, Meng Ying personally took a brocade box and held it in front of Tian: "Grandmother, can you taste it." As he spoke, he took a dumpling and handed it to Tian.
Tian has spoiled these grandchildren for so many years, and it is the first time to taste the food made by his granddaughter, and he is happy, and he stretched out his head and took a bite of the dumplings.
"How's it going, grandmother? Is it delicious? Meng Ying asked expectantly.
Tian nodded: "It's delicious, my Ying'er made it, how can it not be delicious?" ”
Meng Ying smiled when she heard this: "Grandmother loves to eat, but she needs to eat more." We packed a lot of bags last night, and we specially left some for my grandmother, mother and aunt to try. ”
"Oh?" Tian raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "You made dumplings last night?" Who taught you how to make dumplings? Whose idea was it? ”
"It's sister-in-law," Meng Ying replied crisply, "If it weren't for my sister-in-law's proposal, we wouldn't have been able to eat such delicious dumplings, who would have thought that the dumplings eaten by ordinary people are actually more delicious than the food we eat during the New Year." ”
When Tian and the others heard this, they all looked at Qianning, and for a while, Qianning became the attention of everyone.
"How does Sister Lu know about these folk foods? Haven't you tasted and eaten it before? Lian Chengmei still had a smile on her face, and asked lightly.
If Qian Ning only suspected that Lian Chengmei was uneasy and kind, but now she is 100% sure, doesn't this show that she is having a poor life in her mother's house? Qian Ning settled down, met her gaze, and said frankly: "What my sister said is good, when I was in my mother's house, I would eat dumplings when it came to the New Year, how about it?" My sister also tasted it, is it delicious? Qianning did not shy away from the embarrassment of her mother's house, Lian Chengmei had nothing to say, picked up a dumpling and took a bite.
Cui and Liu also ate a lot, and they also praised a few words.
Meng Ying blinked her eyes and asked Liu: "Auntie, the dumplings you eat are all made by the second sister, and they were specially selected." ”
Liu was a little surprised, his daughter has always disdained female celebrities, let alone making these foods, since letting Qianning go to enlighten, Mengqian has also begun to try to be a female celebrity, and now she is still making dumplings, the changes are not small, thinking, looking at Qianning's gaze with a complicated look: "It's rare for Qian'er to make food, I'm so surprised." Liu said from the bottom of his heart.
Mengqian really didn't expect that a few dumplings made casually could make Liu so emotional, and there was a rare embarrassment on her face: "If my mother likes it, I will often make it in the future, this is not difficult." ”
The love on Liu's face was even deeper.
Cui Shi also laughed: "It seems that Lu's idea is quite good, not only to let a few girls learn to make a new food, but also to let everyone try it together, it seems that our family can fill this dish for the New Year in the future." ”
Mengying "Ula" called, "I can't wait for the Chinese New Year, and I have to let my sister-in-law take me to eat dumplings on weekdays." ”
"You're just gluttonous." Tian scratched Mengying's nose dotingly, and then turned to Qianning, "Since several girls have learned to make dumplings with you, you will work hard today, and then take them to make more, so that someone can send them to the Li family and the Chen family, so that the two in-laws can also try it." ”
This is a good thing, not only to contact the feelings of several families, but also to properly show the Li family and the Chen family the virtuous and upbringing of the two girls, killing two birds with one stone.
Qian Ningfu responded yes.
Since Tian's spoke, Qianning naturally didn't dare to slack off, and when she went back, she instructed Li's mother to go to the kitchen to ask for dumpling filling, and the kitchen knew that it was Tian's order, and it was still to be given to the future in-laws, but the preparation was more careful than last night. Not only is there pork and cabbage, but also mutton carrots, mushrooms and chicken, three fresh fillings, the stuffing is also cooked with spices, just smelling can arouse gluttony, not to mention that the dough is also mixed with vegetable juice, carrot juice, it looks red, green and green, and it is very good-looking.
Meng Ying drooled while wrapping it: "I can't give away such beautiful dumplings." ”
Mengqian smiled rarely: "If you eat it all, the future third brother-in-law will not have to eat." In a word, Meng Ying was ashamed again.
This time there were a lot of dumplings, not only did Qianning cook and eat them, but they were also sent to Zhenghai Courtyard, Yunhuatang, Shaohuatang and Yongmeizhai. Zhao Luoyan happened to have lunch at Cui's place, and saw the dumplings sent by Qianning, which were in the shape of a crescent moon and had a color, which were very good-looking, and couldn't help but taste several.
Cui Shi saw that he liked to eat, so he pushed a plate of dumplings in front of him: "If you like it, eat more, it was made by Lu Shi with Mengying and a few of them." ”
Zhao Luoyan's eyes flashed, he didn't expect Lu Qianning to do this, he originally wanted to praise a few words, but he heard Cui's say that Qianning had already sent a handful to Tian's in the morning, and Cui's and others tasted it, and their hearts couldn't help but feel a little unhappy, why did the family get it up and down, but only his upright husband was ignored?
