Chapter 109 on Untitled
After Granny Li finished speaking, she began to drink tea again, and my grandmother also drank it, two people one after another, they drank the best original Da Hong Pao, not the common artificially cultivated Da Hong Pao on the market, this Da Hong Pao has only six trees, and it is also said that there are seven trees, all of which grow on the cliff of Wuyi Mountain, and the picking risk is large, the production is less, and the quality is good, so it is only for auction, and the price of each auction only rises and does not fall, which can be described as a sky-high price. Like my grandma and Granny Li, every sip can be tens of thousands, and it really hurts me to drink.
Neither of them spoke, just silently tasting tea, a few of our juniors didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere, so we could only wait quietly on the side, Granny Li handed me a cup of tea from time to time, let me taste, I couldn't drink a reason, but from this point of view, Granny Li really treated me differently and favored me. Even if it is a tea after three rounds, Granny Li whispered a few more words to Li Yunxian, Li Yunxian walked outside the barrier and gave an order, and the waiter served a snack again, I observed that the waiters who served on the third floor today are different from the past, all of them are young girls wearing cheongsam, it seems that the status of Grandma and Granny Li is really unmatched.
Pastries are also extremely exquisite, to serve five kinds of pastries, five means a good harvest, symbolizing perfection, eight kinds of nine kinds are too much, too cumbersome, five and six are indeed relatively more suitable numbers. Five kinds of pastries are served in order, and they are also exquisite, to be simple and luxurious, the first four are all good, Zhilanzhai dried cakes, Chengde rose cakes, Qingxu Mengfeng cakes, Zhanghua Taiji crisps. It's just that when this last one is served, my eyes are straight.
"Shih Tzu?!" I couldn't help but exclaim, I may not be good at other aspects, but I like to cook, and I am also a standard foodie, from the delicacies of the mountains and seas to the street food, there is nothing I can't name, and this Shih Tzu tongue is the best I have never even tasted. It's not that my family can't afford to eat it, but this thing is too complicated and rare, and there are few dim sum shops that can make it.
"Yo, I don't see it, old girl, you don't care about eating, your yin girl has seen a lot." Granny Li said with a slight smile.
"Hmph, this girl, she just likes to deal with food every day, I'm afraid she has eaten all the things in the sky and on the ground, fortunately, the Kui family has a little background, otherwise she will be poor by eating." Grandma said nonchalantly, with a look of disgust.
"Girl, mother-in-law, I am also a master who likes to eat, this Shih Tzu tongue is not so easy to make, mother-in-law likes this dish the most, you can talk about its method, if you are right, you are allowed to eat." It seems that Granny Li wants to take the opportunity to test me.
"Shih Tzu tongue, first select the best glutinous rice, grind it into powder, and then use the technique of hanging pulp to make water grinding powder and make it into skin. Then 18 kinds of high-quality materials are selected to make the filling, the main ingredients need to be carefully selected, to use Cangzhou jujube paste, Xinjiang sugar, sow belly plate oil, Kuqa walnut, Yangshuo kumquat preserved kumquat, Jiangsu sugar bergamot, Luhe green plum, Fujian red melon, Pucheng osmanthus made of sugar osmanthus, as well as Bayan sunflower seeds. Wrap the filling into the skin and press it into the shape of a tongue, so that it will not fall into the soup and the oil will not be greasy. The dish on the table is fried in oil, and the entrance is crispy but not greasy, and it is salty and sweet. After I finished speaking in one breath, I saw the surprised expression on Li Yunxian's face, and I felt a little proud in my heart.
"Good girl, old girl, your girl is good." Granny Li said with a smile, while holding a piece of Shih Tzu tongue with her own hands and putting it on my plate, this action made me even more confused, whether Granny Li's eyes were really blind. "Girl, I heard that you have something to ask me, so I let that kid from the old Yun family let out words everywhere, say, what's the matter? Mother-in-law today maybe you, no matter what the request, help you to the end. Granny Li said with a smile. It's like pie in the sky for me, no, it's RMB! There was a voice in my heart telling me that Uncle Lu's eyes were saved.
I didn't dare to speak without permission, so I looked at my grandmother's face first, and my grandmother was still drinking tea and didn't speak, but I saw her blink her eyes inadvertently, and I instantly felt steady.
"Mother-in-law, I heard that you will have a long-lost craft that can be used to scratch people's eyes, I don't know if this is true." I tried to make my tone as sincere as possible, and Granny Li's cup of tea stopped in mid-air.
"What you're talking about is this, this is all the old yellow calendar, I won't tell you, our three-year-old children will do this, not for anything else, the world is getting more and more chaotic, if you don't scratch your eyes, you can't see some people and some things clearly. But things like this can be solved by looking for our bastards, so why do you bother to find me so much. ”
"I'm not telling you the truth, mother-in-law, one of my friends has an eye injury, and a friend sued me, I'm afraid only you can cure it." I told Granny Li what happened in the ancient tomb, of course, I didn't mention the key part of the agarwood box, and Granny Li didn't seem to care, she listened patiently, put down the teacup, and replied in a low voice.
"A friend of yours sued you that I would cure this? I'm afraid that your friend is not simple. It's not difficult to cure him, but does your injured friend have the courage to heal me, a blind old woman? "Granny Li asked me.
"He, by all means!" I firmly said that when it comes to courage, I have absolute confidence in Uncle Lu.
"That's good, that girl, mother-in-law makes a deal with you, don't blame mother-in-law for being pedantic and calculating, only I can do what you ask me to do, and only you can do what I ask you to do, even if your mother-in-law does business with you, there are not many people in this world who can do business with your mother-in-law and me personally. Girl, do you think it's okay? Granny Li said.
"But, mother-in-law, you haven't said what I need to do for you." I asked.
"There's no hurry, you'll find out later." Granny Li deliberately sold Guanzi, and she didn't know who else to wait for. About a quarter of an hour later, an elderly middle-aged man walked into the tea room, his eyes were blazing, and his body exuded the charm of a mature man different from Yun Ximing and Li Yunxian, without the belly and bloated of middle age, this middle-aged man was slender and invincible. He is Li Rong, now the Li family's chief butler, and the only spokesperson to the outside world, and he is the only person who can come and go here at will on such occasions. He stood in front of the tea party, nodded to my grandmother, expressed his respect, and then walked straight to Granny Li's side, and said a few words in Granny Li's ear, and Granny Li nodded.
Li Rong seemed to have received some kind of permission, he cleared his throat and opened his mouth to speak, his voice was low, and it was also the kind of calmness that is unique to middle-aged men.
"Everyone, the person we are waiting for has arrived, I hope that except for the head of the Kui family and Miss Kui Yinyin, the rest of the people will avoid it for the time being, I hope everyone can understand." (To be continued.) )
