Wanhualou

Hearing Fu Danqing's words, Gu Yunxi looked stunned at the moment, lowered his eyes in embarrassment, and his clear eyes looked at the bag of gold ingots on the table with a hint of uneasiness and confusion, and then raised his head to re-lock the graceful woman on the other side of the corner table.

"Fu ten taels", a calligraphy and painting is exactly ten taels of gold!

Now she only asks for three, and this bag of 100 taels of gold belongs to her, and she is not losing business!

"Miss Fu, please forgive me for being abrupt. Dare to ask the girl, do you think that the honorarium is under the ...... Less is it? ”

Gu Yunxi raised his eyebrows and spoke bluntly, and he didn't have much time to play sloppy with this peculiar Qinglou woman.

Fu Danqing turned his eyes to Gu Yunxi, who was full of impatience, and pulled his lips elegantly, smiling lightly and brightly.

"Yun Gongzi misunderstood. As the saying goes: There are fewer than a thousand cups of wine for a confidant, and there is more than half a sentence of speculation. Fang Cai Danqing talked with Gongzi, and when he saw that Gongzi talked extraordinary, especially when he talked about his own goodness, he was even more ambitious and brilliant. Danqing is also a person who is good at it, and he empathizes with Yun Gongzi's words.

Now Danqing is presumptuous and wants to make an agreement with his son. Don't give it to each other in exchange. Yun Gongzi made a dish for the little girl that has never been seen in the ordinary market, soup, dishes, desserts, everything is with the child. Three days later, the son came to Wanhualou again with food, and Danqing was sure to present three pairs of ink treasures.

"This ...... This will not work! ”

Gu Yunxi was immediately anxious, and his face was flushed, and he panicked in his heart. Inadvertently, the body that was originally sitting cross-legged at the corner table jumped up directly.

I feel like I've been fooled. However, it was because she had a request for her, and Gu Yunxi was not good at attacking.

Suppressing the evil fire in her heart, she walked briskly back and forth on the ground, and said with a stiff expression:

"Girl, it's really urgent. Time is pressing, please help! ”

"Danqing's conditions have been explained, as long as the son meets the little girl's wishes, Danqing will be squandered to serve the son."

Dan Vo bowed his head, and smiled softly like a spring breeze. Even if the person who is anxious and annoyed sees this smiling face, he will immediately become calm.

"Danqing Girl......"

Gu Yunxi stabilized his mood, and was about to say another when the voice of the old bustard outside the door sounded:

"Danqing, it's almost time!"

When Fu Danqing heard this, he got up from the top of the golden silk chrysanthemum floating brocade futon, put his hands together and gave Gu Yunxi a deep blessing, lowered his eyebrows, and said in a soft voice:

"Yun Gongzi, the time for the little girl to practice the piano has come, and it is inconvenient to accompany the son here. If it is not thoughtful, I hope that the son will understand. ”

Gu Yunxi was completely dumbfounded, understanding that this was someone else's expulsion order for her. As if with a light sigh, she looked gloomy and helpless and said:

"Good. In this case, I will take my leave. Go back to explore one or two, make a superb dish with the girl's request, and then come to the door to bother. ”

After speaking, she bowed to Fu Danqing, and then strode out of the embroidery pavilion.

When Gu Yunxi left with his front foot, he walked into Fu Danqing's room in white clothes. The folding fan is swaying, the ink hair is flying, its figure is handsome, chic and dignified, it is really like a jade tree in Qiongshan, infinite romance.

When the woman inside saw this, she hurriedly landed on her knees, bowed down respectfully, and said:

"Your Highness."

"Hmm."

Lu Qiange picked up the white jade folding fan, the amethyst-like clear streamer in his eyes flashed, and he casually scanned every piece of furniture in the house.

Not long after she left, there was still a trace of her breath in the slowly flowing air, sweet and wonderful.

Thoughts and intoxication converged, weaving into a complex expression, and lingered slightly on Lu Qiange's young and handsome facial features.

A pair of purple eyes greeted the sunlight that folded into the window lattice, shining with beautiful dazzling colors. The involuntary lowering of the eyelashes was gently stirred in the warm sun.

The lips and teeth opened slightly, overflowing with a mellow voice:

"Have you made it clear to her?"

"Yes. The subordinates obeyed His Highness's wishes and made the requirements clear to her. I believe that in three days, she will visit Wanhualou again. ”

"Good! When painting a portrait of her, you need to keep in mind what the person in the painting looks like. After that, we will copy the sample and send our people to visit the territory of all walks of life outside Dayi, and find out the person in the painting as soon as possible. ”

"Subordinates obey."

……

Gu Yunxi walked out of Wanhua Building sullenly.

Cheng Wanli and Qing'er had been waiting on the street for a long time, and when they saw her leading a horse and walking slowly on the street with a lawsuit on her face, they greeted her.

"How's it going? Didn't see Fu Shiliang? ”

When Cheng Wanli saw her face, he asked anxiously, his black and white pupils dilated sharply, and the brilliance faded, excited and frightened.

Gu Yunxi shook his head and sighed:

"Don't mention it, get on the horse, let's talk as we go!"

The three of them got on the horse, and while walking slowly all the way back, Gu Yunxi told about what happened after he met with Oiran......

Hearing Gu Yunxi's words, Qing'er was indignant on horseback, clutched the reins tightly with both hands, and said indignantly:

"Girl, you should have revealed your identity as Dongchang at that time! Look at her, a woman in a green building, dare not behave like a monster and deliberately trick you with some ghost ideas! ”

Gu Yunxi frowned, his eyes sank a little, and said:

"It's nice to be so simple and straightforward. I talked to that Fu Danqing, and I felt that she was also an arrogant master, and she would never be moved by fame, fortune and power.

rashly revealed her identity, I was afraid that she would rebel, but I refused to help. It's also my fault, I didn't have any cooking skills in front of her, but I told her to find a trick that would make it difficult for me. ”

Cheng Wanli thought about it, and always felt that he couldn't figure it out, frowned and said:

It's hard to guess what this Oiran is thinking! There are so many customers, why is it different for you? Yun Guan'er, you say, does she already know your details? ”

One sentence made Gu Yunxi's heart tighten, and his expression showed a trace of astonishment. The slightly cool fingers supported her forehead, and she was at a loss:

So far, I can only meet her request first. What is the dish that has never been seen in the world? ”

"That's only the Imperial Food."

Cheng Wanli replied, and then felt interesting, and couldn't help laughing:

"I think it's because this Oiran is used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, and the taste is becoming more and more tricky, and I want to try the royal banquet food? In this way, I will ask someone to go to the palace dining room to find a recipe for imperial food, and Yun Guan'er, you can make it too! ”

Gu Yunxi still shook his head, his expression was gloomy, and his face was sad:

"It's too late! Not to mention that the ingredients for the imperial food are rare and hard to find, she only gives a three-day period at the moment, even if there is no shortage of materials, I am afraid that it will be difficult to make decent things for a while and a half......"

As he spoke, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. Gu Yunxi suddenly thought of a place, where there was a book, recording many delicacies that ordinary people had never seen and whose ingredients were the most rare!

Suddenly, Gu Yunxi's expression immediately became fluttering again:

"Uncle Cheng, Qing'er, let's hurry back home! Cooking, wrap it up on me! ”

Raising her hand and adding a whip, she urged her mount and took the lead in the long run.

After returning home, Gu Yunxi first reported back on the experience of meeting Oiran Fu Danqing

Overseer.

Afraid that he would think too much, she did not mention to him that she was troubled by that woman. I just said that I would go to Wanhualou to get a picture in three days.

In the evening, Imperial Physician Jiang came to the house, and together with Cheng Wanli, he changed the dressing for the overseer's wound and wiped his body.

Gu Yunxi was rarely free, so he sneaked into the overseer's study while everyone was not paying attention.

She came to find the manuscript book that Yanwan had shown her last time, "Treasures and Treasures".

Although it was a rough idea, judging from the ingredients and cooking steps contained in the booklet, the dishes included in the book with beautiful names are indeed rare in the world.

With such a precious recipe close at hand, why not borrow it? But it takes time to wait for Cheng Qianhu to look for it in the palace?

Gu Yunxi looked at the four chests next to the table, but did not find the blue-sealed manuscript.

Immediately, a trace of doubt appeared in her heart.

Gu Yunxi remembered that Yanwan said that day that the books were placed on the chest of drawers. At that time, I still asked her to put it back in its original place, why is it not now?

Don't......

In an instant, a cloud of doubt arose in Gu Yunxi's mind, and then quickly disappeared.

Her attention was already focused on the book, so she didn't look any further, but started to dig through the drawers.

On the first floor, I saw the handkerchief of Yanwan. Gu Yunxi flattened his mouth and picked it up and hid it in his sleeve.

Next, she found the target in the last drawer, hurriedly took it in her hand, and opened it seriously.

On the first page, Gu Yunxi's eyes were stumped by the line of juanxiu font again.

Mountains have trees, and trees have branches

She once again tasted a sense of frustration in her heart, and then her complexion was depressed, as if she had a faint and shallow mist, which would not disperse.

With a slight movement of cold fingers, Gu Yunxi was somewhat hesitant before turning to the second page.

This book, a collection of rare delicacies, was given by a friend of the Overseer's youth. Now, without his permission, he has taken it upon himself to take a look at it, and even has to make the treasures recorded in it for outsiders to taste, which is indeed inappropriate.

Turning his head and thinking again, he really had no other way. The right is to solve the urgent need, borrow it yourself and learn it first. When the problem is resolved in the future, he will explain it to the Overseer, and he will surely forgive him.

The light in the eyes is shallow, and it is fixed at the end of the page.

Pei Rushi......

Reciting these three words silently in his heart, Gu Yunxi immediately narrowed his apricot eyes, and a trace of melancholy appeared in his heart, and he whispered:

"Miss Pei, Yunxi is really to relieve the Governor's predicament and eliminate the nightmare of the East Factory, and without the consent of the Governor, you will open the things you gave him. Yunxi is not intended to offend, I hope you and the Overseer, a lot of Haihan. ”

When I finished talking, my heart was much more relaxed.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Yunxi couldn't wait to open the second page of the book and carefully watch the delicious dishes recorded in the book......

Time, with the water leaking outside the window, flows little by little, and flies by unconsciously. The sky is faint, the curtain is dull, and the sky is dark.

Gu Yunxi had already read the book from beginning to end. When I looked up again, I felt that my mind was dizzy, and my eyes were misty and sour.

Rubbing his stiff neck, Gu Yunxi hung his head and made a mistake again.

The book consists of 28 pages, each of which contains a delicacy. Although the number is small, the content described is not divided into cuisines, but it is soup dishes, desserts and soft snacks are involved in various categories.

Not to mention that the production method is cumbersome and difficult, many of the ingredients contained in it are something that Gu Yunxi has never heard of.

There are only three days, how to make a handy dish in the 28 dishes of "Treasures and Dishes", and present it perfectly and exquisitely in front of Fu Danqing, so that she can favor her?

After thinking for a moment, Gu Yunxi turned the pages of the book back and looked at its contents again.

Finally, she fell in love with a rare dessert called "Jiaozhu Pear". The ingredients and preparation methods are simple, and they are the most common and simple of the 28 dishes. Then, this dessert was designated by Gu Yunxi as a gift to Fu Danqing in exchange for a portrait of a tribute girl!

Gu Yunxi took the pen, ink and paper, and copied all the contents of the book about "Jiaozhu Pear", without missing anything. She then returned the book to its place and left the Overseer's study.

In the following whole day, Gu Yunxi began to try to make the rare dessert "Jiaozhu pear".

According to Pei Ru's records, the ingredients used to make this dessert are all similar to the cheese ingredients Gu Yunxi made before.

The only flaw is that one of the ingredients called "pear rain" is not in Gu Yunxi's hands.

Pear rain, as the name suggests, is the rain that falls from the sky when the pear blossoms are in full bloom, filters and precipitates impurities, and filters the water. This is a common sense that any chef and diner knows.

If there is no pear rain, it will be replaced by well water!

Gu Yunxi collected all the ingredients and began to fight.

Soak the glutinous rice for four coins for a quarter of an hour to soak softly, mash it into the well water of fifty coins, throw rock sugar for a penny, and boil it over a simmer. When the soup thickens into a semi-turbid white pulp, take a fine sieve and filter the glutinous rice residue.

Take a fresh chicken egg, remove the egg yolk, leave the egg liquid to break up, mix in ten coins of goat milk, and stir well.

Put the egg liquid goat's milk into the glutinous rice milk, mix the heat thoroughly, stir and cook until the slurry completely becomes a cheese paste, put it into the pear flower cup, and then put it into the ice cellar for half an hour.

After the cheese paste is cooled at low temperature, it is as tender as fat, white as jade, and smooth as a bead, like a clear milky white tofu, quietly displayed in the flower pot. Its form is crystal clear and semi-transparent, and it is like the pear blossom of the jade bone ice muscle before and after the Qingming Dynasty, drenched by the crisp rain, between the branches and the plain and elegant, jade bone ice muscle.

When eating, a spoonful of dogwood and fruit sweet stuffing is embedded in the center of the jade cheese, and a delicious and rare "Jiaozhu pear" is probably done.

Gu Yunxi quietly called Qing'er and asked her to try to taste the results of her first attempt.

When Qing'er saw the graceful five-petal puff pastry cheese in the pink pear blossom pot, her round face was bright, and her eyes showed a surprise streamer.

Looking at the fine food in front of her, Qing'er was so happy that she forgot to blink, and kept asking:

"Girl, can I really eat it? Can it really be? ”

Gu Yunxi nodded vigorously, and said with an affirmative expression:

"Of course, you can try it! I'll give a review later, where the taste is lacking, I'll improve it. ”

"Good!"

Qing'er happily agreed, her voice was clear, and she carefully held the flower pot in her hand, and a small spoon in her other hand. Just as he was about to scoop it, the raised arm suddenly stopped.

Gu Yunxi watched from the side, not feeling nervous, the expression on his little face was stiff, and he kept urging:

"What's wrong? You'd like to taste it! ”

Qing'er squinted embarrassedly, and said regretfully to the flowers:

"Girl, you didn't see this dessert too delicate, I ...... I can't bear to put down the spoon......"

"Oops! You can eat it with confidence, I'll make it later! ”

Qing'er raised her thin eyebrows, took a deep breath, and dropped the spoon into the cup.

Quietly "pounce."

The sound sounded slightly, and a piece of jade cheese in the bowl was suddenly missing.

Qing'er scooped a spoonful of semi-transparent white jelly, stared at it between the half-concave spoons, and shook it tremblingly. Then she swallowed it with her mouth open. The tip of the tongue is cool, the sweet and silky fruity aroma is mixed with the smell of goat's milk, and the creaminess of the egg whites melts and melts, and then invades the entire mouth.

"How?"

Beside Qing'er, Gu Yunxi was so nervous that she couldn't breathe, she held her breath deeply, and her two eyes were firmly locked on Qing'er's closed little mouth, and she didn't move at all.

Qing'er couldn't help but squirm her lips and tongue, savoring the unique taste of cheese on one wall, and nodding her head on the other. With her neck straight, she swallowed the mouth full of cheese that had melted into milk, frowned slightly, and said:

"Girl, the cheese you steamed for the first time is good, but at the end, there is always a milky smell. Next time, will you try to change the milk? ”

Gu Yunxi nodded slightly, and then denied:

"You don't have to have milk. Thinking that goat milk fat is higher than cow's milk, the prepared things are easier to freeze. Maybe I didn't use the right materials, so I couldn't get rid of the fishy smell of goat milk and egg liquid......"

With that, she picked up the spoon and filled a piece of the mouth.

Sure enough, as Qing'er said, at the beginning of the taste of this crisp cheese, it was a tempting refreshing and sweet feeling, falling on the tongue, as if licking a piece of weightless floating clouds and light smoke.

Later, especially the process of milk jelly softening into frost in the mouth, the fishy smell of goat milk mixed with egg liquid is revealed. And with the blessing of the sweet taste brought out by that penny of rock sugar, the meaty taste of the cheese became thicker and stronger.

Gu Yunxi was most afraid of milkiness, so he forcibly swallowed the buttermilk that had melted into only half a mouthful, and his face was ugly.

"No, I have to do it again!"

Gu Yunxi put most of the remaining custard and prepared to come again.

Seeing this, Qing'er grabbed her and persuaded her with kind words:

"Don't rush, girl, take your time. In fact, the taste and appearance of this cheese are excellent, and the smell is only a little, and you can't taste it at all if you don't taste it carefully. ”

Gu Yunxi's expression was solemn, and he shook his head and said:

The horizontal and vertical materials are made by me, and the production techniques are even less heated. The recipe says: Jiaozhu pear, cheese entrance, salty and astringent, astringent and sweet, clear into the spleen. The cheese I make has only one flavor from beginning to end, and that is sweet! Definitely not. ”

In the world of gastronomy, the increase in taste and the change in taste in a dish are regarded as rare. Even if it is made of simple materials and has no pretentious appearance, if you enter it in one bite and repeatedly taste two or more heavy flavors, it is a superior product.

In order to bring out the multiple flavors of a dish, it is necessary not only to choose the ingredients, but also to rationalize the cooking process and master the cooking skills, but also to stand the test.

Qing'er blinked, looked directly at Gu Yunxi's serious energy, and asked in confusion:

"Girl, what did you just say 'Jiaozhu pear', who gave you the recipe?"

“……”

Gu Yunxi's eyes froze, and he was suddenly speechless, and cleared his throat uncomfortably, before he said:

"Since I am a sister of Gongyuan, I have given it to me a long time ago! Oh, by the way, let's make this dessert, we can't tell anyone, including Cheng Qianhu! ”

"Why?"

Qing'er's eyes flickered, her face was still full of doubts, she shouted in her voice, and was gagged by Gu Yunxi.

"I'm going to surprise him!"

withdrew, Gu Yunxi made up a lie.

She knew that Cheng Wanli had been with the Overseer for the longest time. The leaders of the East Factory all knew the news about the Governor's good intentions, and Cheng Qianhu knew more about this matter. Perhaps, he knew the story about the book "Treasures and Treasures".

Gu Yunxi thought, if Cheng Qianhu knew that he had secretly borrowed the food treasures in "Linlanglu", he would pass the letter to the overseer if he couldn't keep it, and he wouldn't be scolded to death by the overseer?

She patted Qing'er on the shoulder and said solemnly:

"When I've eaten up how to make this cheese and made it the most flawless, we'll show it to him! During this period, if you don't say it, I won't say it, God knows, but you have to keep it secret! ”

Qing'er listened, her face was clear, her facial features were full of innocence, and she nodded vigorously:

"I listen to the girl! The girl doesn't let anyone talk about it, Qing'er definitely doesn't talk about it! ”

The rest of the time, in addition to going to the superintendent's room on time to serve him, Gu Yunxi trapped himself in the kitchen, carefully studied and practiced repeatedly, but he still failed to make pear cheese that satisfied him.

If you think about it, you should have a fork at the "pear rain" ingredient.

Before and after the Qingming Festival, the pear trees are raining in the season. Because it is the essence of all things, it accumulates for a winter, and bursts out in early spring with the drizzle falling. Therefore, there are many literati and writers, quoting poems and writings, the capital is the preciousness of the spring rain in the pear blossom season, comparable to ghee!

Pear rain is astringent and slightly bitter, and it is a gem to restrain the fishy smell of goat milk. However, without pear rain, what kind of material should be used to replace pear rain?

In the evening, Gu Yunxi, who was so tired that his muscles and bones were sore and dizzy, was forcibly pulled out of the kitchen by Qing'er and stuffed into the room to take a hot bath.

After changing into clean bedclothes, the little eunuch Kang Hai came to summon again.

This overseer, let her sleep and be addicted?

Gu Yunxi knew that as soon as he went to his house, he would have to toss around again. But today I was so tired and panicked, I had already lost my energy, so I asked Qing'er to send Kang Hai away.

After a while, Kang Hai turned back, full of grievances under the corridor. Gu Yunxi was helpless, so he passed over with a lantern.

As soon as he arrived at the bed, Leng Qingtang came over, sniffed with his neck, his eyes were restless, and he whispered:

"Girl, how much papaya custard have you drunk today? A whole body of milk! ”

Gu Yunxi lowered his head, his nose sniffed on his two arms, and frowned.

Just a little bathing, but it failed to completely remove the goat milk and egg liquid that had been stained for a day. Now in the overseer's room, it smells inexplicable.

Leng Qingtang smiled wryly, leaned sideways on her thigh, looked at her peach blossom face fixedly, and his tone was full of ambiguity:

"Like...... It's still mixed with the sweet fragrance of the strands, and it's changed to honey wattles? ”

"No ......"

Gu Yunxi deliberately avoided the overseer's scrutinizing gaze, and was a little flustered in his heart, and he said:

"I—I didn't ......"

Before the sentence was finished, Leng Qingtang's two big hands suddenly got into her bedclothes, accurately caught the pair of soft curves, and squinted his eyes and said with a wicked smile:

"Yes, much bigger......"

"Overseer!"

Gu Yunxi's face was full of redness, but he was also embarrassed, his little hand held his wrist, and he gasped and raised his eyebrows in protest.

Recently, the Overseer has been recovering well from his injuries. The buttocks don't hurt anymore, and the more bold people are, the more arbitrary their actions become.

Protests are ineffective!

The end result is that someone is successfully pushed down, confused, and entangled in a kiss with the person on his body.

The room is full of beautiful spring and cannot be described in detail...... 2k reading web
