Chapter 22 is a decisive thing
As soon as I heard this, I secretly cursed in my heart: Look at your virtue, and say that uncle, I am not suitable to sit here, how many people like me can be here who have known up and down for 5,000 years? How many people are there in the world? I can sit here to give you face, in modern times, no matter how big an official you are, you want to invite you to sit, and you won't dump you.
I thought so in my heart, but my body was honest and neat and I got up and wanted to leave.
When I came to ancient times, I was cautious at every step and did not dare to make a slight mistake. Because the people of this age are savage, and they kill people at every turn. I lost my head in horror and I don't know why. If you offend the people of the government today because of a seat, it is too worthless.
The proprietor Chen Xianda's face was embarrassed when he heard this, and he stopped talking, and finally looked at me, which meant very clearly, I had better change places. I don't really have anything, I'll sit wherever you want to sit, and it doesn't matter if I don't let me sit I'll go back, I understand people.
Wei Na Huang surnamed the scribe sneered on his face, pressed my standing body directly and chuckled: "We are all here to be guests, and we should not distinguish between dignity and inferiority, after all, it is not a court meeting." Besides, this is Master Song, a cooking master in Puzhou City, is not an ordinary cook, this is a young and promising talent. Anyway, I don't care if others look down on him, I think he is my friend, if someone looks down on Master Song, it will look down on me Huang! When he finished speaking, there was no smile on his face, his eyebrows were erect, and his eyes were slightly closed.
As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent, and they didn't expect that the scribe surnamed Huang would value me so much. I couldn't help but be flattered, and intuitively felt that this scribe surnamed Huang was extraordinary, and I could already see it by looking at his words and deeds.
Chen Xianda is proficient in the world, and when he saw that the scribe surnamed Huang was so focused on me, he hurriedly raised his glass and smiled: "Ha, it's rare for all friends to come here for a party, it's all my Chen's Rong Xingha, come, I'm Chen, please have a drink." ”
This is a step to uncover this section.
Seeing that the scribe surnamed Huang strongly supported me to sit down, the two officials' faces were like sinking water, very ugly, but they also thought that so many people were watching, there was no need to be unhappy about this little thing, plus Chen Xianda invited me to drink again, obviously acquiescing to me in this seat, so he didn't say anything more, and raised his glass to drink.
After this festival, everyone was quite good, and they had a good conversation. I am silent, watching everyone drink, I will serve a cup, everyone will eat I will raise the spoon, others talk, I smile and listen, never say much.
But with more and more dishes, everyone has eaten differently, and obviously feels that these dishes are different from those they have eaten before, each dish has a lot of taste, oil and water, not to mention the aroma, and the entrance is mellow and reaches the taste buds.
It didn't take long for everyone to catch everyone's attention. He praised this dish for being so good.
When asked who did it, Chen Xianda smiled and pointed at me. Now I really caught everyone's attention, and they all asked me how these dishes are cooked, and how they are different from other dishes. Even the two officials couldn't help but ask how these dishes were made, and they tasted so amazing.
I immediately seized the opportunity, and said in detail the lotus-like finger dishes, not only praised the process of cooking, but also said that each dish has a health effect, what nourishes yin and nourishes the kidneys, aphrodisiac and increases qi, and prolongs life are all boasted.
There is no way, one is that I am eloquent, and the other is that they have not eaten.
Of course, I said what I was. Within a moment's time, everyone wanted to order my peanut oil and various ingredients, and they all asked me for my home address, claiming that they would order it later. They also agreed that if there is a banquet at home, I must be invited to the chef in person. I agreed to them all, especially in the face of those three officials, and I was even more diligent.
Because I know very well that the ancient officials were not as simple as asking for money, and if they didn't serve well, they would have to die.
Everyone was enjoying the food and drinking wine.
I secretly calculated, at least twenty or thirty people want to order my peanut oil, secretly thinking that it is another unruly income, and my heart is secretly refreshing, and the scribe surnamed Huang has a cup of wine, and I drink happily.
Everyone saw that I talked properly and did not dislike that I was a cook, and they were willing to raise a glass with me to drink, I was invited to let me drink a lot, fortunately, in ancient times, it was rice wine, rice wine, the degree is not as good as modern beer, I can barely cope with it, if I change to modern liquor, maybe I have already collapsed under the table.
Everyone saw me as very well-behaved, and they all liked me very much, and even those officials had a few drinks with me. And every time a dish comes up, I have to introduce the name of the dish first, and then introduce how to eat it.
Because they found out that each dish I made had a different name, and there were allusions, such as ants on trees, rats against guns, three jinshi, and daughters returning to ......
Anyway, these are normal in modern times, and the tricks that every restaurant is used to use have been vividly brought into play here, and the allusions of these dishes not only made everyone drink more, but I also had a reputation for being erudite.
At this time, the main course was also on the stage, starting with a dish of Qingjiang sea bass.
As soon as the dish came up, the white-faced official smiled and said, "Master Xiao Song, what do you call this dish and how to eat it?" ”
I stood up and said, "Oh, my lord has a vision, this dish is called Qingjiang Hidden Dragon." ”
"Wow, that's a big deal." The crowd screamed, all startled, and then whispered.
I didn't notice the uneasiness on Chen Xianda's face, but I just looked at the words I had compiled and said, "Look, my lords, this perch was caught from Qingjiang in the middle of the night, and it is more than a foot long, which is relatively rare. The main thing is to see what is under this perch. ”
When they heard me, everyone looked down and saw that it was a few radishes that I had carved. Everyone was puzzled, but they heard my loud voice: "This is the dragon gate, as we all know, the fish leaping dragon gate is Jackie Chan, this fish, with years of practice, can almost reach the point of leaping the dragon gate into a dragon, but at this moment, it has become a meal on the plate of everyone, so the name of this dish is called, Qingjiang Hidden Dragon." Haha......"
I thought that I had spoken very well this time, and I would definitely win everyone's warm applause, but I didn't expect that no one applauded, and they all looked at me with strange faces.
I wondered if what I said wasn't exciting enough, and I had to practice more when I got back?
I was thinking about whether to add some more words, but I felt that someone was pointing at me behind me, and when I turned my head, it was a black face, which scared me.
After a closer look, it was Lan Ge'er's servant who served the food and came to my side.
"Don't talk about dragons, you drink less." Lan Ge'er whispered.
A word woke up the person in the dream, I woke up half of the wine I brushed, and I gave myself a big mouth when I went up!
Grandma drops, I can't find the north if I drink some wine, and I think it's in modern times, I don't know if this is ancient times, who dares to say dragons.
Everyone saw me slap myself, but they didn't know why. They all stared at me.
I didn't blush and said unashamedly: "Everyone, maybe you misunderstood just now, the dragon word I said just now is not a real dragon, Tianlong's thoughts, is a deaf cage, yes, it is the cage of the cage net, our hometown dialect, sometimes we may not be able to hear it clearly, it is the cage net, the cage net of the net fish, this fish, it is extremely laborious to catch it, and it can only be caught with the cage net, which shows that its vitality is very strong, so after eating, it will enhance its strength and strengthen the body. "I was in a hurry, and after thinking about it for a long time, I finally found a suitable reason to avoid being strong, hoping to get through the trick.
This is uncomfortable in my heart: what kind of mouth do I have, why don't I run here and not open the door.
At this time, when I saw that everyone suddenly realized and returned to smile, I felt relatively peaceful in my heart.
I glanced at the white-faced official, and the weather was uncertain, which made me feel the drum in my heart, and I accidentally saw that the scribe surnamed Huang was smiling slightly and looking at me with great meaning.
I wiped a cold sweat, thinking that I must fork these topics, and said: "In our hometown, there are many ways to eat this fish, if you say it all, there are one hundred and eight sayings, and it is a kind of saying and a wine." ”
As soon as this remark came out, it aroused everyone's interest, and someone immediately asked: "There are so many sayings, so Master Song should come and listen to it." ”
I secretly said in my heart, the opportunity to change the topic came: "Then this first way of eating, that is, the first chopstick, to let the most noble guests eat, if the most distinguished guests do not eat, others can not be left behind, and it is not possible to change the table." Ah, of course, our table can't move. "I missed my mouth for a while, and I forgot that there was no turntable on the table at this time. In the future, I will make a little money from this aspect.
As I spoke, I took a new pair of chopsticks, and put them on the plate of the scribe surnamed Huang.
At this time, I didn't know that I had made another big mistake.
Just as the scribe surnamed Huang greeted him with a smile, two people coughed lowly.
I turned my head to see that one was the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked official coughing, and the other was Chen Xianda coughing again, and he kept giving me a look and glancing at the white-faced official. I immediately wanted to give my head a look.
It's really stupid, I can't figure it out after drinking some wine today, so there is obviously an official, why do you still give it to a scribe surnamed Huang, doesn't this add chaos to others.
I hurriedly turned around and sent the fish and meat in my hand to the white-faced official again, and then the white-faced official's face looked better.
I hurriedly picked up the flask again and trotted to the white-faced official and said courteously: "Only you, the most distinguished guest, have tasted the first spoon, and then drank three toasts, and then you can start the following rules." ”
The white-faced official smiled and said, "Oh, there are so many rules, do you want to drink three cups?" ”
"Yes, it's three cups, the first three. What about this first cup, you drank it to ensure that you were promoted and came to the stage steadily. "I opened my mouth to make a toast.
When the white-faced official heard this, he was very happy and hurriedly took a cup and drank it all.
Everyone also shouted in unison, all vying to congratulate the official on his promotion, between the words I vaguely heard everyone call this official Jia County Order, I was secretly shocked, it turned out to be Jia Changshou County Order, no wonder these people are talking to him, the head of a county. Only I saw that the scribe surnamed Huang only smiled silently, and there was a trace of coldness in his eyes.
I didn't care about what the scribe surnamed Huang was thinking, so I was busy with the second glass of wine and said, "This second cup wishes Jia County to make Lord Jia rich and endless." "The second cup of Najia County Order is another laugh and a sip of it.
Everyone laughed and clapped their palms together.
I then went to the third cup, and opened my mouth and said: "This old saying is good, the promotion and fortune die ......" almost said the three modern joys of the promotion and fortune and the death of the wife, but fortunately, I woke up in time and hurriedly changed my words: "This promotion and fortune is, you want to get it, but it must be better if you have the favor of the beauty, so this third cup of blessing Jia Lord Peach Blossom Luck can't be stopped." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone burst into laughter, and the county magistrate of Najia was also extremely happy, and pointed at me with his hand and said: "You baby, you are not very old, you understand a lot, okay, I also drank this glass of wine." ”
As he spoke, he raised his neck and drank cleanly, and everyone applauded warmly. Only the scribe surnamed Huang pretended to drink tea, and there was no intention of attaching it.
After three glasses of wine, Najia County ordered: "Then what are the rules after this?" ”
I smiled and said: "After that, all the rules will be handed over to you, for example, you clip a fish face, to whom, that is to reward him with a face, you clip a fish eye to whom, that is to look at whom, there is a way is a fish beam to distinguished guests, called the mainstay, fish mouth to friends, called lips and teeth to rely on, fish tail to subordinates, called to entrust heavy responsibilities, fish fins to juniors, called wings to fly high." Fish maw to new knowledge, called to push the heart, fish buttocks to the frustrated, called to have a blessing, and finally fish to eat at will, called more than every year. This fish, pay attention to the head three tails, four belly, five navels and six ......" I cleared the etiquette of eating fish on the modern table in one breath, so that everyone was dumbfounded, and they didn't know that there were so many things to eat a fish.
This time, the atmosphere was set off. Najia County Ling was also happy to drink, while talking to everyone about fish, while asking me what I should say, and how much wine should I drink, everyone was also very cooperative, smiling faces, wine to the cup of dry, the scene was enthusiastic, until everyone can eat fish casually, then they have moved to try fresh.
After everyone ate it, they were full of praise and shouted delicious, and Chen Xianda saw that I made the atmosphere so warm, and he also quietly gave me a strong thumbs up.
I hurriedly returned the salute to show my shame.
Seeing everyone happily drinking together, I quietly returned to my seat, wiped my sweat, and said in my heart: "My God, it's much more tiring than cooking." ”
Looking at the scribe surnamed Huang who seemed to be smiling on the side, I knew that he was not as happy as he was on his face.
With a piece of fresh meat under the face of the fish, he sent it to Huang Wenshi's plate, and said softly: "Brother Huang, this piece of meat, called Yuezhuer meat, is the most tender piece of meat on this fish, and I am reluctant to give it to others, so I will give it to you, you don't know, this is also known as: a small brother, I respect you, please smile." ”
The scribe surnamed Huang was depressed in his heart, but when he heard me say "a piece of money is fixed", his eyes suddenly lit up, and he went up and grabbed my hand and said: "Brother Xian, it seems that I still underestimate you, it turns out that you are a real person and don't show your face!" ”
I don't know why the scribe surnamed Huang is so happy, and I thought: Isn't it just a piece of fish, can it really settle the matter? That's all the emperor's doing, what does it have to do with us ordinary people?
I obviously underestimated the enthusiasm of the scribe surnamed Huang, and even toasted me three times in a row. The meaning of happiness is obviously not disguised. In the end, he specially sandwiched another basket of fish meat for me and asked me, "What is the name of this second basket?" ”
I smiled and said, "This is called Erzhen Dingqianmo, which means that your brother wishes me a prosperous business and a lot of money." ”
The Huang scribe slapped the table happily and said: "Virtuous brother, make a note, when I Huang stands on the sky, it will be the time for you to open your mind!" ”
I smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to reply, just laughing and drinking with the scribe surnamed Huang. While I was drinking, the last finale came up.
