Chapter 848: Apology
Emitan shook his head and said, "What's so difficult about this, as long as you use it a lot, you will be proficient." However, the Sogdians were still a little particular about using knives? ”
Uncle Hua smiled and said, "Amy Dan, you tell me, let me learn this mutton cutting technique too!" ”
"When using a knife to remove meat, the blades should be pointed inward, not outward, and the blades should not be outward, indicating that there is no threat to others at the table. When pulling into your arms, you should use the thumb of the hand to hold the cut meat slices so that the minced meat or meat oil will not splash on the guests, which is a sign of respect for the people at the table. ”
Zhang Bao'er suddenly asked, "Amy Dan, can the knife you carry with you be used for eating mutton?" ”
Amidan smiled: "Zhang Gongzi is still careful to observe, you are right, Sogdian men have the habit of carrying knives with them, which is related to our living habits." The nine kingdoms of Zhaowu have melons and fruits in all seasons, especially in midsummer, they have to eat melons and fruits every day, and they can't do without knives when eating watermelons. There are also slaughtering sheep, skinning sheep, cleaning up offal, scraping sheep's heads, eating finger meat, and of course, including this roasted whole sheep, all of which are inseparable from knives. In addition, when packing up sets, saddles, and hunting, the knife is also a handy tool for us. ”
"I can't wait, you're welcome!"
Zhang Baoer said, rolled up her sleeves, and grabbed a piece of roasted whole mutton with golden color and translucent red, oil droplets seeping, and fragrant eruption in her hand. After chewing carefully, you can still taste a faint milky aroma in the aftertaste. After eating a fist-sized piece of meat, it is not greasy at all.
The four of them feasted happily, halfway through the meal, when the interest came, one hand held the grape wine, the other hand grasped the roast mutton, clinking glasses to toast, not to mention the fun! It's even cooler!
After a while, a roasted whole sheep was eaten by them.
After Zhang Bao'er wiped her hands, she stroked her belly and said to Amidan: "The taste of this whole sheep is so good, thank you so much, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to eat such a delicious taste." ”
The Sogdian shopkeeper came over and said to Amidan: "Brother Emidan, you are also full, leave quickly, those great cannibals will not give up." ”
The smile froze on Amidan's face, she was happy to eat and drink happily just now, and she forgot about the stubble of the big cannibal. Now, listening to what the shopkeeper said, Amy Dan suddenly became sad again.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Baoer saw that Amidan's face changed, and couldn't help asking.
"The shopkeeper told us to leave quickly, he was afraid that the big cannibals would come to take revenge." Amy Dan said truthfully.
"No hurry! Wait! Zhang Baoer said leisurely.
"But ......"
Zhang Bao'er smiled and said: "Amy Dan, think about it, if we leave like this, and the big cannibals can't find us, then won't this shopkeeper be unlucky?" So, we can't go! ”
Zhang Baoer said it was not unreasonable, and suddenly made Amy Dan speechless.
Sure enough, after another moment, there was a noise outside the door, and there was no need to ask, it was the big cannibal rescuers who came.
Zhang Bao'er got up and said, "Let's go, I'll meet them." ”
With that, he walked out the door.
Uncle Hua and Wolf Tian followed.
Amidan hesitated, but finally stomped her heel out.
As soon as Amidan came out of the restaurant, he was stunned, and nearly a hundred big food cavalry at the door were riding on horses, staring at Zhang Baoer and the others standing at the door. At the head is a heavily armed Great Food General, and beside him is the Great Food Officer who was thrown out of the restaurant by Wolf Tian.
At some point, the streets, which had been bustling with activity, turned out to be deserted, and even the nearby shops were closed, and only a few bold Sogdians could be seen on the corners, and they were half exposed, paying attention to the scene in front of them.
Although Amidan was afraid, he couldn't hide from it, after all, the king had confessed Zhang Bao'er and others to himself, and if there was an accident, he couldn't explain it to the king.
So Amidan stepped forward and gave a Sogdian chest salute to the Great Eclipse General, and then said in the Great Eclipse language: "General, I am the Sogdian merchant Amy Dan, and they are my guests!" ”
Amy Dan pointed at Zhang Bao'er and said, "Your subordinates want to forcibly occupy the food we ordered, so there was a conflict with my guests, this is just a misunderstanding." I am willing to make reparations, and I hope the general will not embarrass my guests! ”
After listening to Amy Dan's words, General Da Shi turned his head to the officer beside him and asked, "Didn't you say that they took the initiative to attack you?" ”
"Thousand household chiefs, you can't listen to his nonsense, they are all in the same group!" The officer argued.
Amy Dan was not as nervous as before, and he said respectfully: "General, the shopkeeper and the guys of the restaurant can prove it, I am not talking nonsense!" ”
General Da Shi waved his hand impatiently and said, "Okay, no matter what, your guests still damage the majesty of my Da Shi army, let them apologize to my Da Shi, I will not pursue this matter." ”
Hearing what the other party said, Amidan finally breathed a sigh of relief, he turned to Zhang Bao'er and said, "Zhang Gongzi, I have already agreed with them, as long as they apologize, they will no longer pursue it!" ”
"Apologize?" Zhang Baoer snorted coldly: "I don't have the habit of apologizing!" ”
"Huh?" Amy Dan was stunned, he didn't expect Zhang Baoer to be so hard-mouthed under the coercion of the other party.
Uncle Hua said on the side: "Go and tell them that my son-in-law will not apologize to them, and if they want to apologize, they should also apologize to my son-in-law!" ”
"But ......"
"Nothing, tell them the truth!" Zhang Baoer said categorically.
Listening to Zhang Bao'er's cold words, Amy Dan's heart sank, and an ominous omen enveloped her heart.
Sure enough, when the Great Food General heard Amy Dan's words, he couldn't help but be furious, only to see that he gave an order, and the Great Food Cavalry all drew their scimitars.
Zhang Bao'er looked left and right, and said softly, "Is there a problem?" ”
"No problem!" When Uncle Hua and Wolf Tian answered, they also drew their long swords from their waists.
General Da Shi raised his scimitar and was about to give an order, but he heard a coquettish reprimand from the side: "Stop! ”
Zhang Bao'er squinted and saw an exotic young woman appear in her eyes, she was wearing a high-pointed hat, wearing a robe with a lapel, the sleeves of the robe were very narrow, the robe was wide, the bottom was long and dragged to the ground, and the collar, cuffs and placket were inlaid with a wide brocade edge. The jade belt is also tied with grape streamers, and on the feet are a pair of pointed hook brocade boots.
This woman is so beautiful, delicate appearance, elegant posture, petite face shape and delicate facial features, as peculiar and dazzling beauty as a half-breed, delicate and fair skin like goat's milk curd, curly eyelashes flickering, the perfect arc of the corners of the mouth, dark and deep eyes, there seems to be rippling water, the forehead with a forehead ornament, the fine white gold chain makes the slightly curly long hair look pure and beautiful, and there is a diamond hanging from the center of the eyebrows, which is unusually beautiful and dazzling.
