Chapter 226 The joy of the family, the sword points to Longchuan
Does Wang Xiaoguan know how to cook?
Seeing that Wang Fulin went directly to the kitchen, he solemnly reminded Liu Hongshi not to break in. When Xiaobei went to see Wang Erniang and Wang Xiaomei in confusion, the sisters also shook their heads in unison, indicating that they didn't know. However, Jinbao was slightly impressed, tilted his head and said: "When I went back to Songming Mountain last time, my father seemed to be cooking, but he was stopped by Uncle Wang Qi and Aunt Wang Qi, saying that it was a gentleman who was far away from cooking. β
When he was said this, Qiu Feng also thought about it, and sighed lightly: "Once when Cheng Gongzi came over, he also asked the little official if he had been cooking recently. Listening to his tone, he seemed to be very sure that the little official would cook. β
As soon as these words came out, everyone was full of curiosity, and when they went back to the room, there were a large number of people gathered at the kitchen door. Liu Hongshi, who was robbed of his job, was so angry and funny, wiped his hands on the apron, wrapped the handkerchief around his head more tightly, and then smiled: "Even if the petty officials really know how to cook, this also needs someone to do it, besides, rabbits and pheasants are not so easy to concoct, washing, peeling and removing hair are all kung fu work." β
In the kitchen, Wang Fulin was indeed suffering from a headache because of these jobs, and Liu Hong's coming in solved the urgent need. Even so, when this man helped to clean up all these tasks with his hands and feet, he still invited people out of the spirit of thinking about others. Sure enough, when he had the foresight to take a handkerchief and make a simple mask to cover his mouth and nose, and then put the peppers into the oil pot, outside the kitchen, the group of people who were still around suddenly scattered like birds and beasts, and those who walked slower were choking and coughing. Xiaobei dragged Liu Hongshi and asked in wonder, "What the hell is this doing?" β
Liu Hongshi didn't know, he only remembered that Wang Fulin seemed to have cut a bunch of red things. However. Campbell's autumn maple is also good. Wang Erniang and Wang Xiaomei. But it suddenly reminded me of the memories of the Mid-Autumn Festival, remembering the scene when Wang Fulin coaxed them to eat the mapo tofu, Wang Xiaomei jumped up all of a sudden: "It must be that chili!" My brother was so bad, I drank a lot of water that day, and my mouth was about to swell! β
However, when she tried to rush into the kitchen to make trouble, she was directly turned away by the smell of oil smoke. Wang Erniang was also angry, thinking that Xiaobei kindly sent wild meat. She could only pull people aside and explained in a low voice: "A while ago, Brother Cheng Gongzi didn't know where to find a lot of red dried goods, saying that it was chili, which was much spicier than green onion and ginger, and coaxed us to eat it during the Mid-Autumn Festival before, but everyone was choked with spicy enough, but I didn't expect him to come again today!" Sister Xiaobei, if you send these good things today, I really have to say I'm sorry. β
If it were to be changed to usual. Xiaobei had already been furious, but today she just wrinkled her nose for the first time: "It's okay." Anyway, it's not expensive, and it's not something to buy! β
But if her kindness is really ruined, she must settle accounts with that guy!
When the heavy smell of oil smoke in the kitchen finally dissipated, and Wang Fulin, who was full of chili peppers, came out, he was holding a large plate like a guy running a hall, with four plates on it. Seeing that everyone was staring at him, he coughed heavily and said, "I know you can't eat spicy food, so I made two flavors." Don't be stunned, help serve the plates! β
Hearing Wang Fulin say this, Wang Xiaomei cheered, rolled up her sleeves and was about to step forward to grab the plate, but Wang Erniang grabbed her and taught her a lesson. At this time, Liu Hongshi and Jinbao Qiufeng had already hurried up to help, and there was only one plate left in the large plate in Wang Fulin's hand. Xiaobei leaned in and took a look at the only remaining plate of fried rabbit meat, only to see a little red stuff dotted in between, it should be the chili pepper Wang Erniang said, she simply reached out and took it, but found that the fragrance was tangy, but there was indeed a choking spicy smell. Always curious, she sniffed lightly, and thought about it in her heart
When the tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks were set up in the Ming Hall, Liu Hong's other steamed dishes and cooked dishes were also put up, a total of seven or eight. Because Mr. Fang and Mr. Ke went out and did not return, only Liu Hui came over to join them, and sat down widely. For braised rabbit meat and fried pheasant, everyone's evaluation is not bad, but the two plates in front of Wang Fulin are not concerned except for him. Whether it's Wang Erniang and Wang Xiaomei, Jinbao and Qiu Feng, everyone just watched Wang Fulin feast on his two plates, but they definitely didn't want to try that feeling of throat fever again.
But at this moment, a pair of chopsticks next to him stretched out. Just one bite, that unprecedented taste bud experience made Xiaobei frown tightly, but she went south and north, and at that time she had eaten all kinds of messy things, and the initial stimulating taste quickly turned into a fragrant aftertaste, and her eyes suddenly lit up. In just a moment, she stretched out her chopsticks and grabbed the second piece, and the third piece was the third piece...... The initial hesitation was gone, replaced by the urge to stop.
Driven by her, Wang Xiaomei couldn't help but try it with some hesitation, but this time she cautiously only took a small bite. Compared with the exciting experience of the Mid-Autumn Festival, she is obviously much more receptive, and after pulling two mouthfuls of rice, she actually yelled at others.
"It doesn't seem to be so spicy this time, it's delicious!"
Seeing that a pair of chopsticks were stretched out to grab food in his bowl, Wang Fulin suddenly smiled. There are guests today, how can he not add a heavy spicy taste all at once, this kind of stimulation Cheng dΓΉ, as long as you are not afraid of spicy or tracheitis and laryngitis, you can eat it, in fact, most of the people who eat spicy in later generations only get such a slightly spicy Cheng dΓΉ. It wasn't until the two dishes were robbed that the atmosphere became normal, and even Liu Hong's asked Wang Fulin how to use this red chili pepper under Liu Hui's hint. Naturally, looking at her posture, she will never let Wang Fulin rob her kitchen again.
After a short meal, for Xiaobei, who came uninvited today and mentioned two dishes of game, Wang Fulin knew what he meant, so he smiled and invited her to talk upstairs where there was no one at this time. When he got to the second floor, he sat comfortably on the beauty around the patio below, only to hear Xiaobei suddenly whisper headlessly, "Thank you." β
"I, a little Xiucai who didn't listen to things outside the window and only read the books of sages and sages, I definitely couldn't think of this without outsiders reminding me. If you want to thank you, you should go to thank the old lady Xu, Qi Baihu, or those who are still nostalgic for the old things and do not forget to worship with incense. Wang Fulin paused, remembering what Qi Liang said today, "If I guessed correctly, Qi Baihu might be the one who broke the padlock on the back door, entered the West Garden, and then went to the main hall of the southeast pillar stone." He also left a line on the desk with a knife, and he read those words in front of me when he promised to deliver the letter today. β
"The name is no longer there, the injustice is not snowed, and the hatred of Hu Gong is difficult to extinguish now."
Xiao Bei raised his head. She looked directly into Wang Fulin's eyes without evading, and then finally made up her mind: "Madam told the master, instead of returning to the sect, it is better to be the daughter of the Ye family." I have long regarded my wife as a mother, and I don't have any thoughts about the current Hu family, and it is my blessing to be the daughter of the Ye family. But I must do my part in my father's affairs, whether others know it or not, but at least I have to do it. I can't let anyone else rush ahead of me and hide behind me, my real daughter. I was young when I escaped the catastrophe, but I can bear it now. Wang Fulin, you sue me, what can I do? β
Hearing this little girl call her name for the first time, Wang Fulin couldn't help but feel a little itchy in her ears. He thought about it for a while, and finally asked, "Who lives in the old house of the Hu family in Jixi now?" β
"My second brother, Hu Songqi."
"It's the second son who left the coffin and ran away when he heard that his family was in prison when he returned to his hometown? Does he know you're still alive? β
"It's already been preached that I'm dead, so what's not alive?" When Xiaobei said this, he was neither contemptuous nor hateful, but raised his eyebrows.
"Have you been there? Do you know where he is now? β
"When I quietly went to worship my father's tomb on the Qingming Festival, I went to Longchuan Village by the way, and he didn't see anyone all day long, even if my father's old relatives and friends were all gone, and the gods didn't know what they were doing. He gave birth to two sons, all of whom were mediocre in their schoolwork, and they couldn't even pass the boy's exam, and they were extremely unproductive. β
Knowing that Hu Zongxian's sons are not successful, but at this moment, when he heard about the situation of his grandson, Wang Fulin still couldn't help but sigh like a tiger father and a dog. He gently tapped the back of the beauty with his fingers, and suddenly said: "If you are not optimistic about the situation in the court and want to avoid disaster, then the world is so big that there are places everywhere. But since he occupies the ancestral house of the Hu family in Longchuan Village, Jixi, he can't be allowed to be like this. If you don't mind, I'll build you to pretend to be a ghost and scare your second brother. The collective sacrifice of the gentry at the time of the death could not be handed over to him to preside, but he had to meet him. β
"Good!" Xiaobei nodded without thinking about it, and said without hesitation, "If he continues to be a shrinking turtle, I will scare him to death!" β
"Moreover, Longchuan is the ancestral home of Hu Butang, and some voices have to come from there, so that people can feel that they are spontaneous and not deliberate." Speaking of this, Wang Fulin suddenly asked thoughtfully, "There is one sentence I have always forgotten to ask you, do you look like your father?" β
For this question, Xiaobei was a little caught off guard, and after thinking for a while, he said uncertainly: "The eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother don't have the majestic and natural feeling of their father, and I am more like my mother." But at the beginning, my nurse said that I looked serious and looked very similar to my father. β
Is that so? However, Hu Zongxian has been dead for several years, except for Qi Liang, he is really not sure who has seen the original governor of Zhejiang, and he can't bring Xiaobei over and ask directly if he looks like Hu Zongxian, right? He asked Xiaobei carefully, and learned that she didn't often see outsiders when she was at home, at most a strategist like Xu Weimaokun and Shen Mingchen had seen her, and later when she followed the nurse to avoid trouble in the southeast, it was only the nurse who showed up and ran outside, she had not seen anyone, and he finally made up his mind.
"Let's go back to Longchuan Village and let's go together. Wait for the news from Yunyang first. β
PS: Recently, I have cracked down hard, but fortunately I am not involved in pornography or politics, and even the squeaky Jin Lingchun directly saved it...... Well, keep asking for tickets ^_^ (to be continued......)
