Chapter 9 But smell the green plums

Buddha jumping over the wall?

Before everyone could realize the special features of the name, an enticing aroma wafted through the hall, quickly touching everyone's nostrils and taste buds.

Gu Yuelun smiled lightly: "The slave maid wishes the old lady a happy life with this delicacy!" ”

Mrs. Meng had already smelled the fragrance, and the old gluttony was suddenly hungry, her appetite was greatly enhanced, and she was full of yearning for the fragrant wine jar. However, her identity and age reminded her that she must be dignified, so she had to hold back her doubts about the food and asked softly: "Buddha jumping over the wall?" What's the origin? ”

Gu Yuelun said: "According to legend, there is a cook after making this dish, the fragrance is wafting, and after the monk in the adjacent temple smells it, he abandons Zen and jumps over the wall to pursue deliciousness, so it is named 'Buddha jumping over the wall'!" ”

"Really? How can it be unheard of? Chen Xuan felt that this was far-fetched against him, and he was very annoyed by it.

Gu Yuelun smiled: "This is what my cousin Lin Zhao saw from the ancient anecdotes, after the little woman improved it, she specially cooked it for the old lady's birthday!" "The implication is that Chen Xuan is lonely and unheard!

Lin Zhao, is he again? Chen Xuan gritted his teeth hatefully.

It's him? Meng Ruoying was also surprised, but her mood was diametrically opposed to Chen Xuan, Lin Zhao had given him too many surprises recently. It's just that I didn't expect him to know how to cook?

Meng Ruoying couldn't help but wonder, how profound was his knowledge? How many more surprises will there be? The fragrance wafts and lingers in front of the nostrils, which can't help but make people's appetite move, and unconsciously, the heart also moves slightly......

Gu Yuelun smiled: "Okay, please taste the old lady!" Then the lid was lifted completely, and the fragrance in the hall became even stronger, tempting the mouths of the crowd to almost salivate.

Gu Yuelun took the lead in serving a bowl, and after Meng Ruoying took it, she sent it to her grandmother's mouth!

Mrs. Meng took a sip, only to see that the old birthday star's eyes were closed, and his face was filled with a faint smile, enjoying it extremely much. After a long time, he opened his eyes and said leisurely: "It's really delicious in the world, from the mouth, nose to the stomach is very comfortable, after the old body eats, the heart of the Buddha has already reached the clouds......"

In this way, everyone is even more interested in this Buddha jumping over the wall and full of expectations!

"The old lady is really humorous......" Chen Xuan smiled reluctantly, and such praise made him very uncomfortable. But the fragrance kept coming to the nostrils, and the saliva flowed to the lips several times and swallowed raw, and I couldn't admit it or not.

Mrs. Meng instructed: "Serve it to the guests too, please taste it together!" "For special occasions, you can't just enjoy the delicious food.

Gu Yuelun obeyed the instructions, and after it was served, the maid distributed it to the distinguished guests. The capacity of the wine jar is limited, and the number of delicacies is not much, and only a few distinguished guests in the hall are lucky enough to taste it.

Everyone took it excitedly, impatiently picked up the spoon, and after the delicious taste, they were full of praise, and they were full of amazement for a while!

"The best in the world, the Buddha jumping over the wall really lives up to its name!"

"Ahh It's like you're standing in the clouds! Someone closed his eyes and said, "It's light, it's refreshing to every pore!" ”

"Sage Yun, Chaowen Dao, you can die at night! Now it's delicious to eat and die immediately It's not in vain! ”

"It's really a blessing to be able to eat such deliciousness!"

Lin Zhao was shocked by his exaggerated performances, what did the people of the Song Dynasty eat before? Pig food? Although the Buddha jumping over the wall is indeed delicious, it will not come to this point, right?

When I thought about it, I was relieved. Mrs. Meng praised her well, and some people exaggerated a little, and slapped her ass in a different way to make the old birthday star happy......

In this way, the advertising effect will naturally expand exponentially, but I am afraid that the rumors in Jiangning City will be more miraculous, and this is the effect I want. Looking at the intoxicated and happy expressions of the guests in the hall from a distance, Lin Zhao showed a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Some guests found that the soup contained chicken, duck, seafood, and vegetables...... They are all common ingredients, so why is it so delicious? Attentive people begin to notice the wine jar on the table, and perhaps that is the secret!

Those guests outside the hall are naturally not blessed to enjoy the delicious food in the world, and they are regretful! I was only jealous and jealous, imagining in my mind that the Buddha couldn't resist the temptation, and my saliva flowed......

Their eyes fell on Gu Yuelun, the Buddha jumping over the wall was from the hands of this little chef, and if she had the opportunity, she would ask her to do it again no matter how big the price was......

When Meng Ruogu saw this scene, he believed that what the girl said was not bad, Lin Zhao did a really good job! But I wondered in my heart, which ancient book has such a record?

Old Madam Meng said happily: "Call Brother Lin in, their brother and sister should be rewarded!" ”

Lin Zhao has never been a person who does not sit on the table, so he immediately strode up to the hall, bowed down and said: "Give the old lady a birthday greeting, I didn't prepare any gifts in a hurry, and please invite the old lady Haihan!" ”!

Mrs. Meng smiled: "You and Yuelun, this Buddha jumping over the wall is the best birthday gift, there is nothing better than this, sit down!" ”

With the words of the old birthday star, Lin Zhao and Gu Yuelun, the two "servants", ascended to the Hall of Elegance and were able to sit in the same hall with many dignitaries.

Meng Ruogu never despised Lin Zhao, and immediately ordered someone to prepare two seats!

Coincidentally, Lin Zhao's cousin and sister happened to be sitting opposite Chen Xuan, and Chen Gongzi's bitter gourd face was clear. There is no need for sympathy for this kind of person, Lin Zhao unceremoniously sprinkled salt on his wounds, and his smile was full of mockery,

Chen Xuan is so angry in his heart, the chef who specially invited back from Bianjing at a high price! How could she be compared to a yellow-haired girl? He was one of the guests who had the pleasure of tasting it, and the Buddha jumping over the wall was indeed infinitely delicious, and it could definitely kill any delicacy he had eaten before. He couldn't help but drink it all, but he was reluctant to give up, and the aftertaste was endless.

In comparison, the few dishes made by the Bianjing chef before, I don't know how many grades are missing! I wanted to take this opportunity to slap Lin Zhao in the face, and Li Shi used the topic to play and punish him, but I didn't expect to lift a stone and hit myself in the foot, this feeling is really uncomfortable!

The two birthday gifts that were painstakingly planned were useless compared to one dish by others. The delicacies are just fine, and the name Buddha jumping over the wall must have been deliberately done by Lin Zhao. It's clear that he wants to fight against me, refute my face, and slap me in the face!

Chen Xuan was furious, and his hatred for Lin Zhao skyrocketed, almost reaching the peak! Fortunately, there is one more trick, and this time you are dead!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After three rounds of drinking, I don't know who proposed to make some poems, one is to congratulate the old lady on her birthday, and the other is to commemorate. When the ancient literati gathered, it was common for them to compose poems, so it was common for them to produce excellent works. Although the occasion is not so suitable, it is not obtrusive!

Although the Meng family is a businessman, they have always regarded themselves as scholars, and the old lady naturally does not object!

As a result, all kinds of arias and chanting sounded in the courtyard of the hall......

Lin Zhao didn't care at all, and lowered his head to eat and taste wine. The wine of the Song Dynasty is not the high-purity liquor of later generations, but the low-purity rice wine and rice wine. Lin Zhao felt novel, so he tasted and enjoyed one cup after another......

Until Chen Xuan, who was opposite, got up and said: "Since everyone composes poems to congratulate the old lady on her birthday, then it will be ugly!" ”

What kind of tricks is this guy going to do? Lin Zhao glanced up and "listened" with interest!

Chen Xuan looked around, pointed to the door and said, "Look at the two peonies blooming just right, let's dedicate a poem to the next birthday!" I just heard him chant: Qizi must wait for the flower worker, and it may not be demonic to limit Luozhong. It should be the Spring Emperor who is biased towards color, but teaches fairies to be ashamed of riding the wind. Zhu Lan made an appointment with him for a new year's reward, and Cui Hu sighed for a few days. Whoever is in Soochow is the first product, carefully read the Fang Cong in the early morning. ”

Everyone heard it clearly, this is obviously not written for Mrs. Meng's birthday, it seems to be more like a peony to convey love. Well-informed people know that Chen Gongzi has been pursuing Miss Meng's family, and he thinks that he is taking this opportunity to express his love and win Miss Meng's heart!

Some people have listened to the explanation and suddenly realized, no wonder Chen Gongzi is sending the Jade Buddha and inviting the chef, it turns out that it has a deep meaning!

Those who have good deeds have already begun to analyze, and Chen Gongzi uses flowers as a metaphor for people, praising Miss Meng's appearance over the fairy...... Zhu Lan made an appointment with him for a New Year's reward, which was an obvious gesture to Miss Meng...... The golden boy and the girl are a good match......

Lin Zhao knew better that the two peonies at the door were given to Meng Ruoying by Chen Xuan, and they were moved over today because they needed to be decorated.

Now it seems that most of the proposed poems were arranged in advance by this guy, and it was really painstaking!

"Not bad, not bad!" That Jiangning Xuezheng Zhu Xueli and Zhixian Shao Wenquan praised one after another...... Lin Zhao deeply doubted that these two were the senior sailors invited by Chen Xuan?

After the parents spoke, everyone naturally echoed and praised, Chen Xuan seemed to have regained some dignity, a smug smile appeared on his face again, and he pretended to be modest: "Falsely praised, if Brother Gu is knowledgeable, why don't you come to a song?" ”

Meng Ruogu smiled and excused himself: "Forget about this matter, I'm not good at poetry, so I won't be ugly!" ”

Chen Xuanzhi focused on the articles and classics, and he didn't force it, but said: "I heard that Brother Ruogu's scholar Brother Lin has quite an opinion on poetry, I don't know if it's true?" Show it in public, right? When he spoke, he deliberately bit the word "scholar" very hard, and seemed to deliberately name Lin Zhao's inferior status.

Lin Zhaoshan's poetry? Meng Ruogu disagreed. I wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, this matter is still up to Lin Zhao himself!

Chen Xuan was already looking at Lin Zhao with a smile......

"It's better to hide ugliness than to hide it! Forget it! Lin Zhao wasn't very interested in this!

"What? Is it modesty? Or timid? "Chen Xuan is aggressive!

Meng Ruoying's eyebrows moved, and she obviously felt that the smell of gunpowder between the two was very strong!

Push me, right? Pure heart to blame for his humiliation, then it's no wonder brother! In the previous life, in order to pursue the school flower of the Chinese department, Tang poetry and Song words really did not look less, the situation was urgent, and it was inevitable that one or two things needed to be "borrowed".

He immediately got up and said, "Okay then! When I think of a small order, I feel that it is the right time, so I will write a poem! As he spoke, he turned around and glanced at Meng Ruoying, and said slowly: "Kick off the swing, get up and straighten your slender hands." Lunon flowers are thin, thin sweat and light clothes. Seeing the guests coming, the socks shoveled the golden hairpin, and walked away with shame. Leaning on the door and looking back, he sniffed the green plums. ”
