Chapter 19: Don't! No! No!

86_86297 "Xiao Yun'er, can I pay someone to wash it for me?" Ouyang Chenfeng walked to Yun Zirao's side and asked in a consultative manner.

"Okay, who are you going to let help you, let's say okay first, find someone to help, a thousand taels of silver for a dish, there are twenty or thirty kinds of dishes in this kitchen, as well as meat, a meal costs tens of thousands of taels of silver, it's not much for you Ouyang Gongzi, it's really not much, Aunt Li Cui, I remember that there is a maid in the kitchen who washes dishes and vegetables called Xiaomeng, I heard that there are parents and two younger brothers in Linxian's hometown, Ouyang Gongzi, why don't you let Xiaomeng help you, you can be regarded as doing a good deed, how about helping us poor people?" Yun Zirao raised her eyebrows and looked at Ouyang Chenfeng, whose corners of her mouth twitched, with a smile in her eyes.

Today happened to be Xiaomeng's turn to wash the vegetables, as soon as she heard Yun Zirao mention her, Xiaomeng was startled, and then heard that Yun Zirao was going to help her through Ouyang Gongzi, so she immediately stepped forward and knelt in front of Yun Zirao, "Thank you Miss Biao for your care, Xiaomeng doesn't ask for silver, in the Li family, Xiaomeng's monthly money is already very good!" ”

"Zijin!" Yun Zirao gave Zijin a look, Zijin stepped forward to help Xiaomeng up, took it aside, and explained softly, looking at Xiaomeng's wide-eyed appearance, Zijin felt funny and funny, "Xiaomeng, Sister Yun is like this, don't shirk, in fact, Sister Yun is deliberately entertaining Ouyang Gongzi, if there is a benefit, you can take it, we are all used to Sister Yun!" ”

"Huh?! But ......"

"Don't be, it's okay!" Zijin comforted Xiaomeng's uneasy heart and let Xiaomeng slowly calm down, but Xiaomeng still felt a little like being in the clouds, and the warmth in his heart made Xiaomeng unable to forget it for a long time.

"I'll say it first, everyone should wash the vegetables according to the amount of food they eat on weekdays, wash too much, if you can't finish eating at that time, no, and since Ouyang Gongzi can find someone to wash the vegetables, his father-in-law, aunt and everyone can also do it, but like Ouyang Gongzi, just pay the money, if you don't have money, you can also use other methods, I won't interfere with this."

Okay, Aunt Li Cui, you take out all the vegetables and meat that can be eaten in the kitchen, first tell everyone what kind of vegetables and meat, how to wash them, and then help everyone cut them, and everyone who has not been called to help come and help me, everyone can act separately! Yun Zirao put on her apron and went into the kitchen.

"Zirao, this dish and meat are washed, cut, and brought to the dining room raw?" Li Mengshi didn't slow down a little, but her heart was ready to move, her interest was strong, the previous days were too monotonous, and the things in front of her made her feel very fresh.

"Well, it's going to be raw, and when you eat it, you'll know!" Yun Zirao responded with a smile and began to work.

The kitchen suddenly became lively, Li Peng, Li Tingxuan, Yi Qingfeng and Feng Xiaochen all asked the maid to help, because they couldn't even recognize the whole dish!

Hua Xiaoyao has lived in Yueshan Village for a long time, cooking and cooking are common things, directly rolled up his sleeves, picked up the plate handed over by the little maid who washed the dishes, and began to choose.

Aunt Li Cui took all the dishes in the kitchen to the courtyard of the kitchen, and told everyone one by one what the dishes were and what the dishes that everyone used to eat were made.

Jin Aotian took the little hand of the meat bun, the meat bun directly took a small basket, and began to choose, and from time to time he lowered his head to discuss, and chose Yun Zirao's favorite dishes, and then walked to the well, there was already a small maid who had made clean water, Jin Aotian picked up the hem of his clothes, squatted down, and the meat bun with big hands and small hands, while washing and playing, so unhappy.

The well water in winter is warm, and I don't feel cold at all, and the mud on a big sweet potato on the meat bun is accidentally slipped, and the sweet potato falls into the basin, splashing the muddy water on his and Jin Aotian's faces.

"Haha, Daddy, you have a big mole on your mouth!" The meat bun pointed to a big mud spot on Jin Aotian's lips and smiled crookedly.

"There are three on the little face of the meat bun, two more than Daddy!" Jin Aotian looked at the meat bun with a smile, and while the meat bun was not paying attention, he quickly clicked three times on the meat bun's face left and right, and three mud spots appeared.

"Daddy is bad, bullying meat buns, hum!" The meat bun pouted, pretending to be unhappy, Jin Aotian picked up the sweet potato in the basin, and rubbed a layer of skin directly, revealing the white and red inside.

"Huh?" The meat bun took the sweet potato from Jin Aotian's hand, looked at the meat in the sweet potato, felt very strange, stood up, and ran into the kitchen with a kick, "Mother, mother!" ”

Yun Zirao was cooking the hot pot soup base, and when she turned around, she saw the meat bun coming over with a sweet potato, and her eager and doubtful little appearance made people feel cute.

"What's wrong?"

"Mother, the sweet potato is obviously red and yellow, why is this white?" Meat bun looked up with a small face with three mud spots, and his eyes were full of curiosity.

"What about this sweet potato, when cooked, it is red and yellow, and when it is raw, it is white, just like when we were in Yueshan Village, the amaranth made by Aunt Qin was green when it was raw, but it was red when it was made, and there was mint grass, which became black after being made into mint balls, which is the same reason." Yun Zirao patiently gave an example to the meat buns, and the meat buns nodded as if they didn't understand, turned around and ran out.

Yun Zirao smiled, these seem to have some chemical reactions, and there are many explanations, I'm afraid she can't tell herself clearly in the end.

When the meat bun returned to Jin Aotian's side, he had forgotten the mud spots on his face, and happily discussed the color change of sweet potatoes with Jin Aotian, and the father and son became more and more compatible.

Time passed quickly, and after everyone prepared their favorite dishes, the hot pot soup base made by Yun Zirao was almost boiled, and two rich fragrances wafted in the kitchen.

Thinking that Li Peng was unwell and couldn't eat spicy food, Yun Zirao boiled a clear soup base with pork ribs, turned on the fire, and then put it up, put it in Wengzhong, and put it directly into the pot stove, so that the bone flavor of the pork ribs could easily penetrate into the soup.

The soup base of the spicy soup is mainly chicken soup, which is filled with red oil fried by chili peppers and various medicinal herbs, seasonings, boiled over high heat, simmered over low heat, and fragrant!

"Don't rob me, Mozhu, give me that cabbage!" Ouyang Chen's angry voice came from outside the kitchen.

"Childe, we are half of us, and you can't eat the whole tree!" Mo Zhu held a Chinese cabbage in his arms and jumped up and down.

Jin Aotian stood aside with the meat bun in his hand, holding a basket in his hand, the basket was already full and could not be full, and the meat bun was still holding a large bowl in his hand, with all kinds of meat in the bowl, as well as two bird eggs from nowhere.

"Dad, it's so fragrant, why don't we wash it a little more!" Meat Bun tilted his head, his mouth clicked twice, swallowing his saliva, thinking of the bubble tea in the morning, Meat Bun felt that it was better to prepare a little more.

Li Peng and Hua Xiaoyao have already continued to move, and they don't need to think about it at all!

Aunt Li Cui cut vegetables until she was soft, but she got the most rewards today, Ouyang Chenfeng let Aunt Li Cui cut vegetables first, and directly paid the silver, and lined up at the front, everyone was helpless, and they paid money one after another, of course, it was their own private money.

The same is true of the rest of the people in the kitchen, all of whom have been rewarded, and everyone has a smile and satisfaction on their faces.

"Meat buns, just now I saw your mother secretly took two sweet potatoes into the kitchen, your mother must have made something else delicious, we have enough so many dishes, save some stomach for a while, let your mother make you pearl dumplings to eat!" Jin Aotian whispered in the ear of the meat bun, when the meat bun heard it, it was reasonable!

"Cousin, in addition to the barbecue grill in the blacksmith shop, did you send those small pots I ordered?"

"Yes, yes, Miss Table, those small pots are all under the cabinet against the wall on the left side of the kitchen, just open the door of the cabinet and see it!" When Aunt Li Cui heard Yun Zirao's inquiry, she immediately replied.

Yun Zirao found the small pot and asked the maid who was washing the dishes to wash it, and then asked the few maids and maids who helped her to start preparing the small stove.

After putting charcoal in each small stove and putting the soup base into each small pot, Yun Zirao walked out of the kitchen and led everyone to the dining room.

"Xiao Yun'er, do we have to cook it ourselves?" Ouyang Chenfeng looked at the pot and stove held by the maid and guessed.

"That's right, just cook your own food and eat it yourself!"

Everyone's faces stiffened, this has always been the clothes to stretch out their hands, the rice to open their mouths, and cook by themselves, and they don't even know whether they are cooked or not!

"Zirao, my grandfather has never cooked, how long does it take to cook this dish before I can eat it?" Li Peng was holding a large bowl of dishes, both meat and vegetarian, with embarrassment on his face.

"Grandfather, you can see how I cook it in a while, you can cook it however you want, it's very simple!" Yun Zirao asked people to set up the stove first according to the location they were in, and then lead the charcoal in the stove, so that there would be no open flame with charcoal, which was safer.

Seeing the charcoal in the small stoves turning red, Yun Zirao asked everyone to take a seat, "There are two kinds of clear soup and spicy soup, everyone chooses one by themselves, the clear soup is fragrant and delicious, and the spicy soup stimulates the taste buds!" ”

"Mother, can you have both?" The meat buns smelled fragrant and began to drool.

"Yes, in the pot here, half of it is clear soup, half of it is spicy soup, you can choose it yourself, after you choose, put it on the stove and cook it first, and I will teach you how to eat it later!" Yun Zirao nodded to the maids with the soup base, turned around and went to the kitchen again.

Everyone in the kitchen was busy at noon, and they didn't even have time to cook, Yun Zirao deliberately left a lot for them, explained to Aunt Li Cui, and learned how to eat, Yun Zirao turned around and went into the bottom of the stove, and used tongs to dig out the stove for a while, and finally took out two roasted sweet potatoes, wrapped them in two handfuls of straw, and returned to the dining room.

In the dining room at this moment, the aroma of the bottom of the pot was wafting all around, Yun Zirao asked the maids to go to the kitchen, secretly put the two sweet potatoes into Jin Aotian's hands, and began to teach everyone how to eat.

Everyone was already swallowing their saliva and couldn't wait to swallow it, and they immediately began to try it according to the method taught by Yun Zirao.

"Grandfather, how's it going?" Yun Zirao watched Li Peng eat the boiled meat slices into his mouth and began to ask for opinions.

Before Li Peng could answer, Ouyang Chenfeng and Mo Zhu took the lead in opening their mouths, "It's so spicy, it's so spicy, but it's so fragrant and delicious, Xiao Yun'er, this hot pot is really delicious, I didn't expect this son to be able to cook such a delicious thing for the first time!" ”

"Miss Yun, why is this spicy soup so spicy, I knew I wanted a clear soup, it's too spicy, woo woo woo ......" Mo Zhu's tears were about to fall, but he didn't spit out the food in his mouth.

Jin Aotian helped the meat buns, and in front of Yun Zirao, there were a total of three pots, all of which were boiled meat buns that the meat buns liked to eat, and the meat buns were eaten happily, so no matter what opinions were disagreed, the little guy was busy eating by himself, and he took care of Da Hei from time to time.

"Zirao, in the winter in the future, the Li family will eat hot pot every day, eat it when it is cooked, the temperature is just right, the taste is unique, this meat is boiled through the soup base, it is immediately boiled into the flavor, salty and suitable, after eating, the mouth is fragrant, it is really good!"

"Zirao, my uncle has eaten like this all his life, and it is really fun to do it yourself!" Li Tingxuan gave Li Mengshi the dishes cooked in his pot, Li Mengshi had a smile in his eyes, and a little blush floated on his face.

"That's it, cousin, this hot pot is so delicious, let's open a hot pot restaurant in Lanling City, this winter, eating hot pot, it's warm and fun, and the taste and eating of this hot pot are so fresh, you will definitely be able to earn a lot of silver!" Li Hua has followed Li Tingxuan and Ouyang Chenfeng in the past few days, and although he has just started in business, he is very talented.

Yi Qingfeng and Feng Xiaochen both nodded, especially Feng Xiaochen, since he started eating, Yun Zirao hadn't seen him put down his chopsticks.

"This is natural, the hot pot restaurant is naturally going to open, why don't I take the secret recipe of this hot pot soup base as the capital for my cousin to marry a daughter-in-law in the future, and give it to my cousin, I only hope that my cousin can open a hot pot restaurant all over the five countries, and find me a good sister-in-law who is virtuous and virtuous in the future!"

"Xiao Yun'er, why don't you give me the secret recipe for this hot pot soup base?" Ouyang Chenfeng pretended to be pitiful and deliberately made trouble, he knew very well in his heart that even if the Li family opened a fried chicken restaurant in Lanling City, it was only a small start after all, if he could open this hot pot restaurant and rise slowly, it would be easy to do, with money, many things would be easy to do, and dealing with the mall could also make the Li family's experience sleek, not blindly hiding at home!

"Ouyang Gongzi, if you can open a fried chicken restaurant well, I will be satisfied, I still have a lot of new food, to sell in the fried chicken restaurant, you have so many businesses to manage, one more is not more, one less is not less, you are the richest man in the Aoyun Continent, you have to take care of your cousin in the future, if you take care of it well, I am happy, if you don't do it, I will think of a few more new foods!" Yun Zirao raised her eyebrows, discussed with Ouyang Chenfeng, and the two tacitly looked at each other and smiled.

"Cousin, you see that Ouyang Gongzi and I have said okay, you have to work hard, don't forget, you still owe me a thousand taels of silver, earn the money and pay me back as soon as possible!" Yun Zirao's grateful eyes to Li Hua, and her elegant and peaceful smiling face made Li Hua's heart warm, what a thousand taels of silver, I'm afraid it was an excuse that my cousin had thought of a long time ago, and my heart was full, I don't know why, Li Hua felt that her eyes were very sour and astringent at the moment.

Li Peng, Li Tingxuan, and Li Meng's hearts are also overflowing, from Yun Zirao to the Li family, the Li family's qiē has changed, happy, laughing, all positive, beautiful, and warm things have come together, and the taste of home is getting stronger and stronger!

Hua Xiaoyao looked at Yun Zirao, smiled and nodded, the cloud girl has grown up and matured, and she is no longer the cloud girl in Yueshan Village who just wants to live!

Once there are people around this person who need protection, and once the number of people who need protection increases, they will naturally choose to slowly become stronger, just to be able to better protect!

Yun Yatou is a strong-minded person, and she doesn't give up easily, which is really excellent!

Feng Xiaochen's eyes stayed on Yun Zirao's body for a moment, then moved away and continued to fight to eat.

Yi Qingfeng thought back to Yun Zirao's journey, and felt more and more that the Aoyun Continent, one day, would slowly move towards its destined end, just like the Li family, gradually rising and going to glory!

Jin Aotian turned his head to look at Yun Zirao, only to feel that there was a faint light lingering around Yun Zirao's body, which deeply attracted his attention and made him more and more unable to extricate himself!

A hot pot meal, everyone not only ate in full swing, physically and mentally comfortable, but also felt the warmth from the bottom of their hearts, and took the lead in experiencing the warmth of spring in the cold winter that was about to pass.

In the quiet time of the afternoon, the whole of the Loei Mansion began to be busy, the meat bun held a roasted sweet potato and Ouyang Chenfeng started the chase race, Yun Zirao smiled and ignored it, held hands with Jin Aotian, and returned to Haitang Garden.

"Rao'er, come and eat!" Jin Aotian tripped the hot roasted sweet potato in half, revealing the steaming flesh of the yellow and reddish potatoes inside.

"You feed me?!" Yun Zirao blinked Qingling's big eyes, looked at Jin Aotian, and opened her mouth mischievously.

With a smile and doting in his eyes, Jin Aotian carefully peeled off the charred sweet potato skin outside, ate it inside, and handed it to Yun Zirao's mouth, "Take a small bite, don't burn it!" ”

"Hey, hey!" Yun Zirao took a bite gently, sweet and soft, sure enough, the sweet potatoes roasted in the modern electric stove can never be compared to the residual heat of the firewood in the pot stove, this taste is ......

The most important thing is that in the winter, eating with the people you like, feeling the added taste, looking up at the sky outside, you feel a little bluer.

"I'll feed you too!" Yun Zirao picked up the other half with a smile, pulled out the skin, and fed Jin Aotian, Jin Aotian's heart moved, and he took a bite, only to feel that his mouth was full of sweetness.

The four eyes are facing each other, and there is only love in their eyes that is about to overflow!

"Rao'er ......"

"Hmm!"

Hug and kiss each other, adding a few splashes of color to the afternoon time......

There are seven days to the end of the year, on this day, Yun Zirao is trying to make the egg tart to the flower hall for everyone to taste, and the two holy decrees came to the Li family gorgeously.

"Fengtian carrier, my emperor's edict said: 'Li Tingxuan, the son of Li Mansion in Lanling City, is very talented...... Assist in the raid of the Wang family and the Lu family...... He was specially canonized as the assassin of Lanling City, and assisted the city lord and deputy city lord of Lanling City in managing Lanling, and his wife Meng was virtuous and virtuous...... Specially given from the first product of the lady! Chin this! ’”

After Wang Xiang finished reading the holy decree, he did not open the second holy decree, "City Lord Li, quickly take the decree and get up!" ”

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Li Peng was pleasantly surprised, and his heart was excited.

"City Lord Li, there are two holy decrees in this one, one of which has been recited by the lower officials, and the remaining one is for Young Master Li, the emperor said, on the day of Young Master Li's wife, open and recite it!" Wang Xiang handed over the two holy decrees to Li Peng, and turned his head to look at Jin Aotian and Yun Zirao.

"Prince, princess, the emperor said, after the New Year, please go back to Beijing as much as possible, the queen mother is anxious to take a look at Xiao Shizi."

"There are Wang Lao's guards who have worked hard all the way, it is better to stay in the house for a few days, and let me thank the Wang guards, the prince is here, the Wang guards don't shirk, I want to come to the emperor should not blame!"

"That's it, last time the king's guards came in a hurry and hurried back to Beijing, this time, you might as well rest in the cold house!" Li Peng and Li Tingxuan both stepped forward to stay.

Wang Xiang smiled innocently, "Then the lower official is better to obey his orders than to be respectful, and I hope that the lord of Li City will forgive me if he is disturbed!" ”

In the evening, Li Peng called Li Tingxuan's family and Yun Zirao to the study, and after a conversation, he learned that the holy decree of the day was because Yun Zirao used the evidence of collusion between the Lu family and the Lie King collected by the Lu family, as well as the Lu family's dozens of acres of fertile land.

The Lu family harvests grain every year, but in recent years, the grain has been given to King Lie, Yun Zirao asked Jin Aotian, only to know that King Lie has 50,000 hidden soldiers in his hands, so far he and Emperor Jin have never found out where to hide, this time, Yun Zirao inadvertently caught the Lu family, a big fish supported by King Lie, which can be said to make Emperor Jin laugh.

And in addition to these evidence, Yun Zirao did not hesitate to give the title deeds of all the good land of the Lu family to Emperor Jin, the northern part of the Jin country has a cold winter weather and a shortage of food, with these good fields of the Lu family, why worry about the national treasury to allocate grain, Yun Zirao heard Ouyang Chenfeng say that this time in Beijing, it is to talk about food with Emperor Jin and solve the poverty in the north of the Jin country.

Yun Zirao's hand not only allowed Emperor Jin to save money, but also solved the long-standing predicament, which really made Emperor Jin happy, and naturally made Emperor Jin understand that Yun Zirao had a heart for the Li family.

In this way, Emperor Jin has a lot less scruples about Yun Zirao's identity as the daughter of the Mandate of Heaven, because once Yun Zirao is the daughter of the Mandate of Heaven, and the Li family is in Lanling City for a day, the Jin Kingdom will be fine, and it can be regarded as the Golden Emperor who has seized the handle!

"Zirao, the Li family came from you, and the previous haze was swept away, so your uncle and aunt are still ...... My grandfather was really ......."

"Grandfather, uncle, aunt, cousin, we're a family, aren't we! Since it's a family, why bother saying these words of gratitude, without my grandfather, there would be no mother, and without my mother, there would be no me, these are what I should do! Yun Zirao held Li Peng's hand, looking at Li Peng's old tears, her heart was extremely sad, the Li family went all the way, it was really not easy, and in the final analysis, in addition to the fierce king's eyesight, the side of the Zhongyi Marquis's mansion, Yun Zirao has not figured it out yet, but Yun Zirao knows that the hatred between her and the Li family and the Zhongyi Hou will one day be broken!

"Yes, we are a family, cousin, in the future, the Li family will be your maiden family and backing, and you will always be the young lady of the Li family!" Li Hua's words made Yun Zirao's eyes slowly redden.

"Well, family!"

"Uncle, these days, you asked your father-in-law to show you your arm, and the high priest of Qingfeng said that your arm is only broken in the meridians, and if you pick it up, it can still be cured!" Yun Zirao diverted the topic and looked at Li Tingxuan, her eyes shining like stars.

"Good!" Li Tingxuan had already given up on his arm, but today, he wanted to try again, no matter what the result was, it was just like this in the end!

Connecting the meridians is a very unrealistic move, even impossible, as early as when he was injured, Li Tingxuan knew about it, but tonight after Yun Zirao brought it up, Li Tingxuan inexplicably felt hopeful!

On the way back to Begonia Garden, Jin Aotian held Yun Zirao's warm hand, and the breath around his body shrouded Yun Zirao, domineering with arrogance and sweetness.

"Rao'er, the Li family will get better and better, when you return to the capital, you will break the matter of the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion, and I will come to the door to propose marriage, okay?"

"Propose? Not good! Yun Zirao's mouth pursed, a little unhappy.

"Huh?!" Jin Aotian was stunned in his heart, a little nervous and anxious.

"The two of us are in love at most now, you have to propose to me first, and then propose to each other, and set a name!" Yun Zirao looked up at her reddened pretty face, and her appearance made Jin Aotian's heart flutter faintly.

"Propose?" This word, Jin Aotian is not the first time he has heard it in Yun Zirao's mouth, the last time Yun Zirao said it inadvertently, he wrote it down, but he didn't know what this marriage proposal was, what kind of move or what it was.

"Yes, it's a marriage proposal! Anyway, we first had meat buns, first became fathers and mothers, and then fell in love, the order was reversed, and I had to complete all the subsequent rituals, otherwise I would take the meat buns back to Yueshan Village, and I didn't want you! ”

Jin Aotian hugged Yun Zirao into his arms, his voice was low and slightly hoarse, "Don't say this, don't want me, otherwise ......" Jin Aotian hugged Yun Zirao tightly, as if as soon as he let go, Yun Zirao would run away, uneasy, fearful, lingering in his heart, as long as he thought of Yun Zirao and Meat Bun abandoning him, it was like the whole person fell into a 10,000-year-old ice cellar, despair, cold, suffocation!

"Uh...... Jin Aotian, I'm just ...... It's just talking, you don't want to ......."

"No! Just don't! ”

Yun Zirao surrounded Jin Aotian, her face changed, and she said, "If I really do this, what are you going to do?" ”

"I ...... I ......"

"Hmph, if you bully me in the future, and you don't admit your mistake and lock me up with the meat bun, then wouldn't I be very sad?" Yun Zirao pretended to be lost, lowered her head, and began to cry quietly, of course, pretending!

"No, no, I won't bully Rao'er, never! Rao'er will never leave me! ”。
