Chapter Fifty-Four: Gathering Heroes in Tears
Since ancient times, it has been sad to part, and it is embarrassing to sigh when you see each other again! Even Li Ji and other famous generals of the Tang Dynasty who are in the position of dukes are not exempt from vulgarity. It was indeed a hero with tears in his eyes, looking at the elders gathered in the small courtyard, Wang Xingxin was not boring, and he was very angry, and said that he was going to prepare food for all the uncles and use the following wine.
Fortunately, these Guogong University will bring gifts to visit Liu Lao Er in the future, and there is no shortage of food in these gifts, including rice, noodles, wine and meat! Among the gifts of Niu Jinda are pepper and cumin, which are equivalent to gold spices.
It just so happened that a cow fell to death yesterday in Cheng Biting Jin's Zhuangzi, so there was a lot of beef in the gifts brought by Cheng Biting Jin! This made Wang Xingxin admire Cheng Biting the Feng Shui of the Jin family Zhuangzi!
Among the gifts brought by Li Ji were not only wine and meat, but also some green vegetables, which must have been given by Li Er. In this season, when the spring cold has just passed and has not warmed up for a few days, only the royal warm soup supervisor can produce some green vegetables.
Looking at this dazzling array of ingredients, Wang Xingxin suddenly had an urge to show his skills, called the ugly cow, Heiwa and other brothers, unloaded the ingredients, and Wang Xingxin was thinking about how to make a table of delicious.
Fried lamb with green onions, cumin beef, green vegetables are pineapple vegetables and some woad vegetables, and pineapple vegetables are still cold salad. Then stew some chicken soup to make a soup dish.
Then get a few more called flower chickens, and scrambled eggs with green onions. After thinking about it, I feel that the dishes are still few; After pulling Cheng Chumo and Heiwa whispered for a while, Cheng Chumo touched his buttocks, gritted his teeth and galloped to buy pork for the sake of food. Heiwa took a few half-grown children to catch fish in the river at the head of the village.
Just when Wang Xingxin had just stewed chicken soup and made a flower chicken with mud, Heiwa came over with two and a half big babies carrying fish dressed in wicker.
"Brother Xin, this fish is fishy, there are a lot of rivers in the village, and no one in our village used to eat it as long as it wasn't hungry!"
Wang Xingxin was immediately happy when he saw Heiwa carrying a big grass carp weighing about four or five catties in his hand, and he happened to make a braised grass carp. The two babies were holding crucian carp the size of an adult's palm, and this wild crucian carp soup was the most delicious.
"Heiwa, you don't know how to eat fish, see if my brother makes it for you, I promise that there is no fishy smell!"
"Hmm. The new brother is crooked! ”
When Wang Xingxin dealt with these fish, Cheng Chumo finally pouted and rode back on a horse, and Cheng Chumo's butt did not touch the saddle, so the riding skills were indeed superb!
Wang Xingxin was just about to turn around to deal with the pork in Cheng Zhimo's hand, when he heard Cheng Chumo say: "Brother Mingshen, what are you going to do with this pork?" Or that bacon? ”
"Ugly cow, don't you dislike this as cheap meat?"
In the Tang Dynasty, pork is cheap meat, and rich and noble people never eat it, they all eat mutton, thinking that pigs are pickled things! Especially those literati who simply change color when they smell pork! If it weren't for a poem by Mr. Dongpo in the Song Dynasty, it would have taken many years to justify the name of pork before it would have been accepted by those so-called nobles!
In the Tang Dynasty, pigs were not castrated, and there was a little fishy smell. However, it can still be removed if it is handled properly!
Cheng Chu listened to Wang Xingxin ask him if he disliked pork, and said: "Whatever the mother's expensive meat and cheap meat, as long as it is delicious, it is good meat!" ”
Wang Xingxin gave Cheng Chumo a thumbs up, and then went to the kitchen of the newly built Viscount Mansion to get busy!
With the help of the women of the village and the guards brought by the generals, in a short time, all the dishes were ready, except for the chicken soup that was difficult to stew.
Of course, Wang Xingxin will not only be enjoyed by a few uncles, after all, this village is his family!
In addition to the dishes enjoyed by the uncles, there were more dishes, and the radish stewed mutton was enough to make two large pots. So much so that Gongzi took the cauldron from each house when he was making salt before.
Before Wang Xingxin, who was making a meal, could look at his Viscount Mansion when he was called by Cheng Yanjin's loud voice.
"Boy, the food is ready! The old man and your uncles are all drooling when they smell the fragrance! ”
"Uncle Cheng, uncles and uncles! The kid is ready, and I'm about to come and enjoy it! ”
When everyone came to the front hall of the Viscount's Mansion, they saw a large table of eight immortals in the later generations, as well as a few high-backed chairs. The tables and chairs that still exude a woody fragrance have been built in the past two days after the pole returned.
Niu Jinda and Li Ji, who had never seen these new furniture, felt very comfortable after trying to sit down, so Wang Xingxin had no choice but to teach the two carpenters in the family how to build this new furniture. In fact, it's just a style, if Wang Xingxin is asked to build it, he can't even build a chair leg.
When everyone sat down, Wang Xingxin personally took Cheng Chumo and Da Niu to bring the prepared food. As for the black baby, she was already squatting in the kitchen and eating the steak that Wang Xingxin specially fried.
The rest of the village and the guards brought by the generals were also eating the radish stewed mutton from the big pot in the courtyard, and the staple food was noodles.
As the saying goes, the dumplings that welcome the guests are good, Wang Xingxin made the noodles, in the words he said before he crossed, it is a long-term picture!
Wang Xingxin was just about to leave the front hall without disturbing the gathering of the uncles, but before he left the door, he was called back by Cheng Yanjin: "Where are you kid!" Call the ugly cow and the big cow boy to pour wine for the old man and your uncles! ”
Helplessly, Wang Xingxin had no choice but to call the big cow who was eating fiercely, and silently barked at the rooster called Hua in the competition.
The three of them respectfully filled the wine for these old guys, and after these old guys drank the three pulp in the big bowl, they heard Cheng Biting Jin, the old guy, shout: "Happy!" It's been years since I've been drinking like this with my brothers! ”
Liu Lao Er patted Cheng Jin's shoulder and said, "Zhijie, there will be opportunities in the future!" As long as you have nothing to do in the court, you can come to Lao Han's village and drink a few of our brothers! If this kid dares not to cook snacks for us, the old man will beat him to death! ”
Wang Xingxin stood aside and suddenly became sad, why did he bring the master! It seems that it is better to train a few cooks to come out, or not just cook for these old guys!
After the three of them gave the old guy the wine again, Wang Xingxin said: "Uncles and uncles, today is a double happiness, first, all uncles are getting together again!" The second is that the kid can be regarded as having his own home! ”
After finishing speaking, he took a big bowl and filled it up, and then said: "The kid has no relatives since he hit the mountain, he was rescued by Uncle Liu in distress, he was conscripted into the mansion after twists and turns, and he was taken care of by Uncle Cheng and others in the army to have this viscount position!" This bowl of wine boy respects my Uncle Liu first, and then you uncles, and I hope that your uncles will take care of and guide you. It's not much, but it's from the heart! Let's do it first! ”
After speaking, more than three taels of three syrup were poured directly into Wang Xingxin's mouth, even if it was not as high as the liquor in later generations, Wang Xingxin choked and coughed.
Liu Lao Er patted his back with some distress and said warmly: "You kid, you don't have the amount of alcohol to drink, and you don't know that your kid has filial piety, alas! Isn't it my blessing to be able to save you? Without you, I don't know when I will be able to reunite with your uncles, and I think the old man will be buried in the soil in a few years! ”
Wang Xingxin, who had slowed down after listening to Liu Laoer's talk like this, blushed and said loudly: "What is this what Uncle said!" My eldest brother has no heirs, and the boy has not yet started a family, you still have to take care of children for my brothers, how can you say that it is unlucky to bury in the soil! In front of all the uncles, the kid put down the words here, and the kid will treat you as a father to be filial in the future, just like a father! No one can bully you, no one can underestimate you, not even Your Majesty today! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped down by Cheng Yanjin and scolded: "Bastard boy, I just wanted to praise you, how could I think you can say such a rebellious thing!" Looking for a fight! Don't kneel down in the Taiji Palace to ask Your Majesty for guilt! “
Wang Xingxin knew that this was Cheng Biting Jin for his own good, and several generals in the DPRK and China were gathered in the small village, and Li Er must have eyeliner.
Wang Xingxin did not kneel on the ground, but stiffened his neck and glared at Cheng Biting Jin: "Even in front of Your Majesty, the kid dares to say this!" Without Uncle Liu, the kid would have died of starvation! Uncle Cheng, you don't know that the kid climbed out of the dry well, but he is defenseless! Bare-assed! Cold and hungry, it was Uncle Liu who dressed the boy and gave him food to eat! ”
Cheng Yanjin and the others sighed and stopped making a sound when they saw Wang Xingxin's tearful hard breath after speaking.
Seeing this, Li Ji said: "Your Majesty is not that stingy person, this bastard boy is also pure filial piety!" I'm just a little clever to see what this kid can do! ”
After speaking, Wang Xingxin kicked out, and everyone continued to drink!
