Chapter 64: Watermelon

Seeing this, Fang Yage smiled lightly, and slowly withdrew a string of bracelets from his hand, to be precise, a string of wooden bracelets, and placed them on the tray with great importance, everyone was a little dumbfounded, this jewelry ......

Fang Yage smiled lightly, "I have never liked gold and jade jewelry, this bracelet was opened by the abbot of Daxiangguo Temple, it can be safe, and it is a mind to be a color head." ”

Everyone listened to this and admired in their hearts, the abbot of this Daxiangguo Temple is a high-ranking monk, but he is close to his old age, and he does not see outsiders on weekdays. The eyes of everyone looking at the bracelet suddenly became eager.

Fang Qiaoqian smiled lightly when she saw this, thinking in her heart, this Anning County Lord is too big, does she think that she will definitely win by taking out such a valuable thing? Fang Qiaoqian was disdainful in her heart, and when she won this bracelet that belonged to her, the county lord of Anning would definitely be distressed, hum.

It's no wonder that Fang Qiaoqian is so confident, she has been able to get the top spot in the melon making zuò many times not by cheating, the Fang family has sent people to travel all over the country, and specially found a female gentleman who is good at cooking, just to teach Fang Qiaoqian cooking. Therefore, she has made a small success in cooking, and at a young age, she is not only exquisite in making zuò with melons, but also able to make good dishes.

"The county lord is really generous, and my sisters are naturally inferior. The county lord can come up with such a beloved thing, presumably the skill of making zuò from flowers and melons must be unmatched. ”

Fang Qiaoqian said flattering words, but she thought in her heart that the more respectful she was at the moment, the higher she would praise the other party, and the more miserable she would be when Fang Yage lost, only in this way could she relieve the boredom in her heart.

"Miss Fang's words are serious, the lord of this county is not proficient in the flower melon system, and he is not as good as Miss Fang winning the championship for several consecutive years. It's just that all the sisters can't bear to take out their favorite things, so they compare their hearts with their hearts, and also take out their favorite things, so as not to disappoint everyone. ”

If you kill it, everyone will say that if it was Fang Yage before rebirth, Fang Qiaoqian would have won today, but after a few years of life as a chef, Fang Yage's cooking skills are no longer comparable to those of the year. Moreover, Fang Yage's words are with guns and sticks, alluding to Fang Qiaoqian's domineering, forcing the ladies to take out their favorite things as lottery heads.

Fang Qiaoqian's face changed when she heard this, and she didn't reply after biting the root of her back teeth, and all the young ladies were also unpredictable, and a large number of them really agreed with Fang Yage's words. They didn't come here to fight for cooking skills, and even if they did, they couldn't beat that Fang Qiaoqian...... Now I am still forced to take out my beloved jewelry, isn't it the icing on the cake for others.

Most of the ladies who come here today are here to see the world, to be familiar with each other in front of many ladies and little sisters, and to have a good reason to move around more in the future. Of course, more of them are here for the young talents on the other side of the river.

It turned out that behind the pavilion where Fang Yage was located was a small river two steps wide, and on the edge of the river was a low-hanging willow forest, through the sparse willows, you could faintly see the figure floating on the opposite side. It turned out that those noble sons and young talents who were invited were not far behind the willow forest at the moment, using the ground as the seat to sing poems, less than a hundred steps away from the place where the flowers and melons were made. This beautiful woman is across the river, and the little girls at this moment are eager to dress up beautifully, who wants to take out the jewelry to participate in the bet of making zuò flowers.

"The county lord doesn't have to be humble, but also ask the county lord to choose the melons and fruits that he likes, and if the melons and fruits are selected well, the effect of this zuò will be better."

Fang Qiaoqian stepped back after speaking, she actually wanted Fang Yage to choose first, and everyone saw that they couldn't, so they also stopped choosing, waiting for Fang Yage to pick first.

Fang Yage looked at Fang Qiaoqian and smiled secretly, this is a good way to retreat as an advance, she lightly provokes everyone's dissatisfaction with her, and she is the first to pick materials, in case she loses, she can't find any excuse.

"Miss Fang, you don't have to be polite, you don't have the melons and fruits I want here, I'd better wait." Fang Yage said lightly.

"Oh, I don't know what melons and fruits the county lord needs, as long as I say it, I will definitely send someone to find it."

Hmph, if her skills are not good, she said that she had no materials, and she was not afraid of losing and losing face, Fang Qiaoqian made up her mind, she must end Fang Yage today......

"Well, that's not good." Fang Yage looked embarrassed.

"It's okay, the county lord just speaks."

"Since Miss Fang said so, it would be a little disrespectful for the county lord to refuse, in fact, it is not a rare melon fruit, it is the watermelon."

"Watermelon ......" The ladies have heard of winter melon and pumpkin, but what is this watermelon?

The smile on Fang Qiaoqian's face completely solidified when she heard this, these young ladies didn't know watermelons, but she knew that it was Qingze's specialty and a tribute. She has only heard and seen it when she is so big, and she has never even eaten it, which will make her look for watermelon, which she can't buy even if she has money...... It was a tribute, and even the palace was not necessarily available from time to time.

"The county lord doesn't want to participate in the melon competition, just say it directly, why embarrass me like this! This watermelon is a tribute, and the county lord now has to ask for this rare thing, isn't it difficult for a strong man? The county lord doesn't have to be like this, you better take the bracelet back, let's make our bet, the county lord's status is honorable is my offense, and please watch the county lord on the side. ”

When Fang Qiaoqian's words came out, the surrounding ladies were suddenly speechless, no wonder the young ladies of the Fang family said this, how could the tribute be there. And even if it is rewarded by the palace, ordinary people are willing to eat it, let alone use it to make zuò flower melons.

Thinking about it this way, Miss Fang's words really make some sense. It seems that this Anning county lord is not good at cooking, but he is afraid of losing face in front of everyone, so he deliberately took out a bracelet...... After that, it is more difficult to make more difficult materials, which is nothing more than to withdraw from the competition in the name of not having suitable materials, so that the bet that is used as a lottery will naturally be taken back.

Fang Yage looked at everyone's clear expressions and felt funny in his heart, so he spoke: "Miss Fang is like this, but you have repeatedly asked to prepare materials for the county lord, but the county lord has repeatedly excused herself. It's just that Miss Fang is so gracious that you can't say anything, why do you deliberately make things difficult? ”

Fang Yage's words alluded to Fang Qiaoqian's ignorance of the height of the sky, the cowhide was blown up, and she lost her face and blamed others. Fang Qiaoqian thought that she really had to rush to prepare materials for others, and secretly hated that this Anning County Lord was really cunning, and led her into such an embarrassing situation step by step.

"I just didn't expect that the melons and fruits that the county lord needs are so rare, I can't do anything about it. In that case, the county lord should not participate and watch from the sidelines. ”

Fang Qiaoqian couldn't, so she could only eat this secret loss, and as she spoke, she raised her chin and hinted that the maid would return the bracelet to Fang Yage. It's just that the deep affection of disdain can't be hidden.

Seeing this, Fang Yage smiled softly, seeing that Fang Qiaoqian's chest was high, her chin was raised, her eyes were squinting, and she turned away with a faint look of disgust. Fang Yage remembered that the peacock he saw in the Imperial Garden that year was also like this.

"Miss Fang, wait a minute, the county lord didn't say he wouldn't participate!" Fang Yage smiled playfully.

Fang Qiaoqian almost fell down when she heard this, didn't she say she wouldn't participate? Dare to love her, she doesn't have to be a watermelon...... Is this teasing her? Is it just to let people know that her family is not capable enough to find watermelons? It's too much of a bully......

"Oh. What other fruits does the county lord need? Fang Qiaoqian turned her head and gritted her teeth and asked.

"That's not it, I'm still going to use watermelon, but it just so happens that the emperor rewarded a few to the princess's mansion today, and I just asked the maid to get it, but Miss Fang is enthusiastic and can't bear to live up to your kindness."

Fang Qiaoqian almost vomited blood when she heard this, she did it on purpose, it must be on purpose! His eyes stared at Fang Yage, but he only saw a bright smiling face.

"In that case, let's wait a little while before we start." Fang Qiaoqian said very reluctantly.

"That's not necessary, you guys start first, I guess it won't be long before the maid should come back......" As soon as Fang Yage's words fell, he saw a figure walking in the sea of flowers, holding a big box in his hand, which was the perilla that he had gone to get the watermelon before.

It turned out that Fang Yage had already made this ingenious idea clear, and the reason why he came today was to see the situation of this house, and secondly, to make a name for himself.

That's right, Fang Yage wants to make a name for himself, and at this ingenious meeting, let everyone know about the Anning County Lord of the Princess Mansion, and this precious watermelon. So early in the morning, Fang Yage asked Zi Su to put the watermelon in the box and bring it, but Zi Su had actually arrived a long time ago, so he didn't come forward in order to wait for the county lord to teach that Fang Qiaoqian a lesson.

"County Lord, something has been brought."

Shiso opened the carved box, revealing a large oval-shaped emerald green watermelon. This watermelon is a specialty of Nishizawa, and it is even more good in appearance and taste when it enters the palace. Fang Yage didn't pick the flower skin, but picked a one with a skin as green as ink, Fang Yage knew that this kind of watermelon tasted better, the most important thing was that it was bright red on the inside and green on the outside......

Everyone was curious, such a green melon is the tribute watermelon? This is not very pretty, there is no grape green and crystalline, no peach is pink and lovely, and there is no apple and pear aroma, no matter how you look at it, it is not a material that is very suitable for making flower melons.

"Now that the county lord's ingredients are available, let's start quickly."

Although Fang Qiaoqian has also seen watermelons, they are also in the palace, cut and placed in front of the emperor, it turns out that watermelons look like this.

Fang Qiaoqian smiled in her heart, what does this Anning County Lord want to do with it? Frying, stir-frying, cooking, frying? It seems impossible, so you can only make cold cuts? Cut evenly and pose a few shapes.

Hmph, it's just that she wants to use rare materials to attract everyone's attention, but the flower melon she is going to make today has been practicing for more than a year, and it is impossible to lose. She didn't believe that the lord of Anning would be favored enough to have watermelons for her to practice every day, even the imperial chef in the palace didn't see any exquisite dishes made with watermelons, and she won today. So Fang Qiaoqian couldn't wait to lead everyone to start the production of flower melons.
