Chapter 683: The Great Feast (II)
In the iron cage, a fat goose was lying there, and it had just been filled with sauce slurry, and it seemed to know what fate was, and it was desperately hitting the cage. But the cook, who was a middle-aged veteran, picked it up very easily, pierced it with an iron rod, and put it on the fire to roast it, and the fur fell off, and the scorching smell was made, and the goose fluttered violently there, but no matter how much he tossed, he could not escape.
On the stove beside him, a pot of boiling oil was made, and another fat goose was carried and dipped its palms in the oil, and the goose struggled violently in pain, and was thrown into a pool full of cold water. Fang soaked it, picked it up again, and continued to dip it in the boiling oil. You have to toss it like this a few times, so that after the goose loses its strength, the taste of the goose paw is the most delicious.
A little farther away, a donkey was buried in the ground, its belly pressed against the ground, and its body covered with bedding. The kitchen helper poured buckets of boiling soup on the bedding, and the donkey's mouth let out a wail. Seeing that the hour was almost right, a strong man pressed the quilt with both hands, and wiped it down from the neck of the donkey, all the way to the buttocks. The donkey's fur faded like this, and his life was still alive. While the donkey was working, the helper carried a sharp knife to rip off the pound-sized meat from the donkey's buttocks, grilled it on the fire, and brushed it with layers of sauces and seasonings, and then handed it to the servant to send to the front hall.
In the hall, the wine was hot, Xu Pengju pointed to the donkey meat and introduced, "This donkey burn, Hong Xi had a royal meal, but unfortunately Renmiao has a good heart, not only did he not eat it, but also punished the shopkeeper who made this dish." Or Xianweng entered Beijing to do business at the beginning, learned this method, and the chef at home concocted it in the same way, and the taste was really delicious. ”
These characters have reached the point of perfection in eating, drinking and having fun, and when it comes to talking about food, they can go on for days and nights, so Yang Chengzu has no choice but to nod. There were also people who shouted to go to the teaching department to call a few girls to come over to accompany the table, but then Xu Pengju covered his mouth.
"You don't want to be beaten out by my wife sending a women's army, just be cautious for me, don't feel uncomfortable for this New Year. You don't know her vinegar jar, and when the time comes, she will turn her face, but her six relatives don't recognize it, and my mother will help her speak. ”
"Yes, yes. Our Brother Xu is a well-known Ji Chang's fear, don't hurt him and be beaten by his wife during the New Year. The woman won't call it, but the money still has to be gambling, otherwise the wine is not interesting. Come on, take the dice, pai gow, let's bet until the second day of the Lunar New Year. ”
Another person said: "Exactly, who won, please teach ...... in the second year of junior high school" Before the word Fang Si was spoken, he was blocked by others. This time there is a talented man like Yang Chengzu, no matter what kind of talented woman can see it, Yu Jiaofang Division is full of yearning, and the gambling is also very energetic.
Although Leng Feishuang is a female guard, the servants of the Xu family who treat the Yang family are also like guests, and they are arranged to the big girls who run to the room, and there are also special people to entertain them. Although these maids are not as good as their masters, they are not worse than the daughters of ordinary well-off families.
They spoke with a sweet and soft southern accent, pulling Leng Feishuang and talking homely, pleasing her. Some people also asked if she had been accepted by Master Yang, and wished her to conceive flesh and blood as soon as possible, and become an aunt, so that she would be prosperous and rich from now on. Leng Feishuang was not annoyed, but just like a bystander, looking at the wine and food, coming and going, like a beautiful flower and a maid, ringing and dingling, and secretly praised himself: What a fairyland on earth.
At the same time, outside the Yamen of Ningbo City, a group of coolies are carrying a huge wooden box to the car, although it is the south, but the weather is also very cold at the end of the year. These coolies had no decent clothes on them, and their skin was a little red from the cold.
Overseers patrol around in thick cotton clothes and whips, keeping an eye on everyone. A big man stumbled under his feet and almost threw the box in his hand. The whip in the overseer's hand seemed to have eyes, and immediately fell on the big man's back and head, and the flesh and blood were blurred.
"Pickled and poured, the livestock that deserves to be eaten by wolves and dogs, this is the porcelain that the official kiln is set to burn, if you break one, you can't afford to pay for your life. How dare you be so frizzy, I'll kill you today and teach them a lesson! Damn, dare to stare at me, tired of living? ”
The more the overseer spoke, the more annoyed he became, the whip in his hand danced vigorously, and the big man covered his head with both hands, and the already tattered cotton clothes turned into butterflies under the leather whip. The two arms were blurred with blood, and the man could not stand still, and fell backwards.
A gloomy voice suddenly sounded, "Forget it." During the Chinese New Year, if you break people, you will have broken feng shui. "What came out of the yamen was an old man in his early fifties, wearing a python robe and a wingless black veil on his head, who was the eunuch of Ningbo City, Ryan.
The tall overseer was immediately shorter in front of Ryan, and lowered his whip to speak of the great man's recklessness and negligence. Ryan glanced at the man twice, "He's not eaten for a few days, so he doesn't have the strength." You too, when you hire someone, you must not only look at whether he has a son, but also whether he has eaten. Really, isn't your work even more delayed? Just drive him away, why kill him? My Buddha is compassionate, our family is a fasting person, but I can't talk about beating and killing, you follow me, you have to learn the word compassion, understand? Okay, the others are going to work, this bastard thing is thrown away from me, we don't want to see him in Ningbo City. ”
So, in order to know his sweetheart, the Three Tigers, who went to Jiangnan to break into the world, were once again unemployed and returned to the ranks of beggars. Fortunately, the year is approaching, even if you are a beggar, you don't have to worry about starving to death. As soon as he thought of his childhood sweetheart, he was motivated again.
"Old ...... Master...... Dada" was in the burst of tactful and arrogant cries, and he didn't know an inch, and he was paralyzed into a puddle of mud and lay weakly on the stepping bed. Zhou was drenched in sweat, but he was still pulling Yang Chengzu's waist, and it seemed that he still wanted to invite pets.
Yang Chengzu smiled, "Since you can't fight, don't provoke again" After speaking, he galloped on Hao Qingqing on the other side. As a girl in the room, she is qualified to share her husband with Hao Qingqing, but when she looks at her flat belly, she is a little depressed, and Yulu has also taken on a lot, but I don't know when I will be able to conceive flesh and blood.
My father, who was far away from his hometown, sent a letter not long ago, and under the care of the Yang family and Qinglong Mountain, my father's tuberculosis had improved greatly, and at least he could maintain his life. Several younger brothers in the family can also go to school, and all of this, isn't it all given by this man?
She looked at Yang Chengzu's eyes, full of admiration and gratitude, knowing her identity, she was just a piece of furniture that could walk, at most she was qualified to warm the bed, but she was also willing, and even broke her fingers behind her back to calculate when it would be her turn. As for a certain deceased, there is no time to think about it.
There is only one day before the New Year, and almost all the large and small yamen of the entire Ming Dynasty are in a state of sealing and resting, that is, on this night, two trading fleets from the same country and different forces have approached Ningbo and submitted an application for inspection to Ningbo. At about the same time, the commanders of the seven coastal areas and nine guards in the interior of Zhejiang went to Nanjing with large sums of gold and silver to visit friends and visitors, and to make some joints.
