According to etiquette, the first time the mother-in-law comes to the house, the daughter-in-law always makes the dishes or pastries herself and serves them to the mother-in-law. In addition to the dishes made by the mother-in-law, they were all served first, and after the elders sat down, Liu Yuru, Fan Ying, Xie Jinlian and others, including Deng Yulong, went out and served a dish in the kitchen.

Cui Shi knew that this was a portion made by each of them, and according to the etiquette, she had to taste it for evaluation. She remained silent, secretly remembering the order of each person, listening to them put the dishes on the table, then announcing the names of the dishes, and then sitting down one by one.

Master Li knows the etiquette, so don't move the chopsticks first, and ask Cui to taste them first.

These dishes are served hot and cold, as well as meat and vegetables. But I have to say that the level of these people who cook is very different, and in short, they are not very superb. There is no comparison with the craftsmanship of the mother-in-law who often fiddles with this.

Li Wanqing is not big first. She has been a female poet and calligrapher since she was a child, and Li Xiyu will not let her get these things, and when she was in Yangzhou, she hired a maid to wait at home. So she just cut a plate of ready-made pork head meat and served it, feeling apprehensive.

Who knows, Cui Shi picked up a piece of chopsticks first, and he was not in a hurry to put it in his mouth, he first took the meat and looked at it carefully, and praised, "Not bad, not bad, Wanqing's knife skills are very good!" With that, put the piece of meat in his mouth.

No one can say anything about such an evaluation, but it can be regarded as giving Li Wanqing a face, and Master Li accepts it after listening to it. Gao Jun listened and said in his heart, you really know! actually praised the knife skills. But also, what do you not praise the sword skills? She didn't make the meat.

Another is that Fan Ying is not very popular, she made a sword from a small martial arts knife, which is not connected with a kitchen knife, she made a plate of cold salad, but she chose to wash the dish and cut it by her, but it was Xie Jinlian who helped when she put the condiments in the end.

Cui Shi took a bite, frowned and didn't comment, so he went to pick up a dish. Fan Ying also cared about Cui's evaluation in front of everyone, and when she frowned, Fan Ying looked at Master Gao with a red face. Gao Jun motioned for her to be calm.

After eating a small stir-fry made by Xie Jinlian and Lirong, Cui had to say in his heart that their craftsmanship was the best among these people, and the color and taste were excellent.

Because the two of them are from ordinary families, they usually do a lot of work, although they don't know how to cook big dishes, but they are skilled in the control of heat and condiments.

But Cui's only praised Lirong. Xie Jinlian sat at the table and secretly glanced at Master Gao, she didn't care what Cui Shi said.

The steamed pork made by Siqing made Cui's full of praise, and she was heartfelt. The meat is fresh and fragrant in the mouth, the fat melts immediately and is still shapely, and even the thin part on top of a piece of meat does not lose its bite at all, she knows that Master Li and her husband will eat it for a while, and they must always be judged appropriately.

Deng Yulong's soup is a little salty, but it's really soup, what can she do as a princess? Cui Shi only nodded slightly and said, "This soup is just right for rice." ”

After eating the plate of fried vegetables served by Cui Yan, Cui Shi couldn't help nodding, "Well, I didn't expect Yan'er's craftsmanship to be so good, and it was on par with Lirong." It was like saying to her husband and Master Li, and to these women, "This kind of home-cooked green dish is not simple, but it is not easy to do it well, especially it is even more rare to do this." ”

She pointed to the dishes and said, "Gao Jun always walks in the officialdom, and wine and meat are indispensable to eat, but eating too much meat will hurt the spleen and stomach, so I should often eat some of this at home, light and delicious." ”

Gao Xianxing heard her say so well, he couldn't help but stretch out his chopsticks and put a spoon in his mouth and tasted it, and sure enough, his wife's praise was not very out of line. I wondered when Cui Yan learned such a craft.

Everyone knew that Liu Yuru was the last one to serve, and they all pricked up their ears to listen to what she had to say about the last plate.

This dish is the most home-cooked - steamed eggplant. Cui Shi took a serious look first. I saw that there was an eggplant with half a cut on the plate, and after steaming, I sprinkled minced garlic and refined salt on it, and drizzled soy sauce and sesame oil.

She pursed her lips, and said in her heart that this dare to go up, and where can it be called craftsmanship, it can only be on par with that bowl of soup.

She sandwiched a spoon on it, and immediately spit it out into the eating plate with a "bah" sound after entering the mouth, and said, "Spicy spicy, salty and salty, don't mix it and go to the top!" ”

Her behavior like this is really to show no mercy to Liu Yuru, and if she spits out what she says in public, she is also very indecent. Ignoring these, she lit the steamed eggplant with chopsticks and said, "This dish is the most ordinary dish, and it is also the most easy to make, most of the time it is steamed in the pot, how can you just mix some condiments and make it difficult!" ”

Gao Jun didn't see Liu Yuru like that, Cui Yan stood up with a red face first, "This ...... That's what I did...... The plate of vegetables just now was made by Sister Liu. ”

This is really what she did, Cui Yan and Li Wanqing are the same category, not only the eggplant was cut by others, but even the minced garlic was cut by her mother-in-law, she only peeled the garlic.

But when she was moving from the kitchen to the middle of the living room, Cui Yan changed her from Liu Yuru's hand, and she winked at Liu Yuru at that time. At this moment, Liu Yuru couldn't help but laugh, looking at Cui Yan with some distress, and it was really difficult for her.

Gao Jun covered his mouth first and ran out, even saying that his stomach hurt. Fan Ying obviously knew what Gao Jun meant, but still whispered, "Why do you cover your mouth when your stomach hurts?" ”

When Cui Shi heard this, his face was red and white, and he didn't speak for a long time. scolded her daughter in her heart, "You are a wrongdoer who eats inside and out, and my hard work has made you kick into the ashes!" ”

Master Li was busy asking everyone to move his chopsticks, and he also deliberately covered up Cui's embarrassment. The men then raised their glasses and saluted each other to drink. The atmosphere at the table immediately became warm, and Cui Shi felt like he had drunk brine, and hurriedly ate a few sips and left the table.

Cui Shi returned to the room, leaned back on the bed, and listened to the joyful and harmonious atmosphere of the people in the hall, as if he was out of place. She hated Liu Yuru, hated her for overpowering herself in Chang'an, and humiliating her noble heart.

She hated that Hou Mansion, and she hated everyone who came out of it. Originally, after Hou Junji was ambushed, she thought that a piece of her heart disease had finally been rooted, and that beautiful and pretended virtuous woman would also be buried in the barren mountains and mountains of Lingnan.

Unexpectedly, this Liu Ru quietly went to Xizhou and sprouted again in Xizhou. Not only that, but she turned into a new generation of young grandmothers in Gaofu, which stretched her roots under her feet.

Cui Shi knew that until today, she was the most outstanding among the young heroines of Gaofu, and among the wives of the Gao Xianxing brothers, no one could match her, including the princess. This is no longer the case.

The woman who used to stand up on the street and accept her apology and gift violated herself in another form. Liu Yuru knew about her humiliation, and Liu Yuru's smile told her that she would say that in public at any time, depending on her mood.

And she can win the support of most women in the family, including her daughter Cui Yan.

Her heart ached, and tears flowed quietly, and the tears reflected the man riding the black-hoofed red rabbit horse. (To be continued.) )
