Chapter 36: The Feast

The Xue Mansion received an invitation from the Three Princes' Mansion.

But the strange thing is that this is not to invite Mrs. Xue and Young Lady Xiao Zhuyu, but to borrow the invitation from Luo and Luo Yuanyuan, who live in the Xue family.

Mrs. Xue didn't look closely, so she asked people to bring the invitation to Luo's.

Although the Luo family poisoned his son, the family ugliness was not publicized, and on the surface, the Luo family in Xue Mansion and Luoyang still had to maintain the apparent harmony.

Mrs. Xue couldn't really grounded Luo Shi and Luo Yuanyuan and didn't let them participate in the banquet invited by others.

Mrs. Xue thought about it, summoned her daughter-in-law, who was eager to stay in the kitchen all day long, and asked her softly about the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion.

Xiao Zhuyu has no concept of her father who is above 10,000 people in the court, and the most she talks about is her mother-in-law and the two daughters she gave birth to.

After her mother died, her mother never cared about Xiao Zhuyu, and even allowed Xiao Yunyan and Xiao Qianyue to bully Xiao Zhuyu.

Xiao Zhuyu grew up stumbling in such an environment.

Mrs. Xue and Xiao Zhuyu's mother are close friends, but the two have not had much contact after Xiao Zhuyu's mother married into the Zuo Xiangfu.

Seeing the childish little face in front of her, whose voice and smile looked like her friend, Mrs. Xue couldn't stop sighing in her heart.

The first beauty in the capital was admitted to the house by the young and promising Zuo Xiang, which could have become a good story in the market, but who knew that there were so many yin and selfishness in the Zuo Xiang's mansion, and he let his friend die of illness early.

Only Xiao Yu'er grew up alone.

Xiao Zhuyu saw Mrs. Xue come over to her, but without saying a word, she instantly knew what Mrs. Xue was thinking.

But she didn't know where to start, so she had to knock on the side: "Mother, there are still small moon cakes with ice skin and fresh meat in the kitchen, do you want to try one?" ”

Mrs. Xue smiled: "You skinny child, what kind of moon cakes are you eating in April." ”

Xiao Zhuyu replied confidently: "Why can't you eat moon cakes in April?" If you want me to say, it's all food, except for some seasonal fresh fruits, the rest doesn't matter what season it is, as long as it's delicious, I want to eat it, I want to eat it. ”

Mrs. Xue's expression moved slightly, and she said with a smile: "I have never eaten this snowy moon cake, I heard you say that it is wrapped in meat, could it be a salty moon cake?" ”

"Yes, yes, my mother is really amazing, I know it at once." Xiao Zhuyu's eyes widened in amazement, and her expression did not seem to be fake at all.

"What's not to guess about that? Wonder is the daughter of ignorance. Mrs. Xue smiled and scratched Xiao Zhuyu's cheek.

"I thought it was sweet meat and put it in the ice skin to make mooncakes...... Xiao Zhuyu rubbed her cheeks exaggeratedly, her face full of frustration.

"Hahaha, Gai Ming'er asked Master Sun to make you some cherry meat to eat, and then wrap it in a layer of ice skin." Mrs. Xue raised her eyebrows and said teasingly.

Xiao Zhuyu's eyes lit up: "Mother, pay attention to this, when the time comes, we will make it for Xianggong to see, and scare him." ”

"Good, good boy, it's hard for you to think of him at such a time." Mrs. Xue really didn't expect that a sentence she said casually could pass through Xiao Zhuyu's hand and become such a harmless but interesting little game.

"When the time comes, Bo Lian's kid will definitely be confused by you." Mrs. Xue smiled and nodded Xiao Zhuyu's head, feeling that this child was really heartwarming.

As he spoke, the snow skin mooncake made by Chef Sun himself was presented, with a thin layer of ice skin, showing a translucent and translucent color, and there was not only meat filling inside, but also egg yolk filling. The two fillings are placed in the same pie, and different patterns are engraved with different patterns.

Xiao Zhuyu is such a person who likes to eat delicious food, and the first time she saw this snowy skin mooncake was not to eat it, but to hold it in the palm of her hand and take care of it.

Mrs. Xue's eyes lit up, and she took a bite of the pie gently, and the aroma of the meat quickly took over the entire mouth.

The shiny oil seeped out from the place where the moon cake was bitten, the ice skin in the entrance neutralized the greasy taste of the meat, the meat was finely torn into fine shreds, and then various ingredients were added to stir, and the powder ground into star anise and cinnamon was moderately put on, which made this snowy skin moon cake.

Xiao Zhuyu first took a bite of the duck egg yolk mooncake, and the oil in the duck egg yolk also flowed out quickly, and she quickly took another bite and another bite...... I ate a whole snowy mooncake in just a few bites.

After eating, Xiao Zhuyu drank the lemon blossom tea also made by Chef Sun, and the fragrance of the roses accompanied by the fragrance of lemons made Xiao Zhuyu, who had just eaten the snowy moon cakes and felt the greasy taste, feel refreshed.

The same is true of Mrs. Xue next to her.

She sighed and said: "It's not like I didn't eat this mooncake with tea before, but mooncakes and tea seem to be two things that are completely separated. ”

"yes, this lemon is a good thing." Xiao Zhuyu nodded, agreeing with what Mrs. Xue said.

Mrs. Xue stopped talking and began to concentrate on eating the moon cakes in her hands.

Actually, where is lemon a good thing? It's a bit more expensive, but it's not impossible to buy. This daughter-in-law is the real priceless treasure.

As soon as Mrs. Xue finished eating a snowy mooncake, she met Xue Bolian who had returned from the lower office.

He frowned as he entered the house, meat was fragrant to others, but to him it was like a smelly weed on the side of the road.

When Xiao Zhuyu saw him come back, her heart was full of joy.

She handed Xue Bolian a bowl of lemon blossom tea, and then squeezed her eyes at Mrs. Xue.

Mrs. Xue nodded knowingly, and decided to conceal the little game that the two had just discussed.

When Xue Bolian saw this bowl of lemon blossom tea, he was a little resistant.

Tea...... It has always been something that women drink, and how can he drink such a thing as a manly husband? If those reckless men found out, they would have to laugh at him for three or five days.

But this is the flower tea that Xiao Yu'er handed to herself, if she doesn't drink it, wouldn't she be sorry for Xiao Yu'er?

Xiao Zhuyu saw Xue Bolian staring at this bowl of tea but didn't drink it, and was a little surprised: "What's the matter, Xianggong, isn't this tea delicious?" ”

After speaking, she approached Xue Bolian and took a sip from his hand: Well, it's still that taste.

Xue Bolian saw the lip print belonging to Xiao Zhuyu on the edge of the bowl, his cheeks were hot, and then he drank the whole bowl of tea with a grunt.

"Doesn't it taste good?" When he raised his head, he saw his mother looking at him with a playful face, and Xiao Yu'er next to him still had an ignorant gaze.
