The four dishes of shredded fish-flavored pork, kung pao chicken, back to the pot meat, and boiling cabbage sound very ordinary, but they are actually very famous.

Kung Pao Chicken is a famous dish, it is rumored that the founder of this dish, Ding Baozhen, is cooked with Jingzai rooster as the main ingredient, glutinous chili pepper and other auxiliary ingredients. This dish is a traditional famous dish of Qianwei, red but not spicy, spicy but not violent, spicy and strong, smooth and crispy meat, extremely delicious.

Fish-flavored shredded pork, back to the pot meat and boiling water cabbage seem simple, in fact, they are all included in the famous dishes of the eight major cuisines of China, take the boiling water cabbage as an example, it is not a simple boiled water to roll cabbage, the name of boiling water cabbage says boiling water, in fact, it is skillful to use clear soup, the key is to hang the soup, the soup should be thick and clear, clear as boiling water, the finished dish at first glance is like a few cabbage hearts soaked in clear water, and a star of oil flowers is not seen, but it is fragrant and refreshing when eaten in the mouth. Boiled cabbage is actually a high-quality consommé dish.

It is true that Liu Yuan's cook, under the guidance of Liu Daguan, made the "four colds" and "four heats" in fact, the level is only sloppy, as far as Liu Yuan's words are concerned, it can only be regarded as barely qualified, but in the mouths of Cui's uncle and nephew, it is extremely delicious, and I can't wait to swallow my tongue.

This is not to blame Cui's uncle and nephew for being so anxious, although the diet is not bad at this time, and the dishes in many places have their characteristics, but in general, there is still very little innovation, and the dragon meat will be fat if you eat too much.

For example, in the Wu Zetian period, Zhang Yizhi, a favorite of the Wu family, created a new way of eating, that is, to heat an iron plate, put the goose on it, and get up around, there is a soup trough in the middle, the goose is getting hotter and hotter on the iron plate, the goose paw is constantly swollen, and the steaming makes it thirsty, so it will drink the soup in the soup tank, and finally chop off the swollen goose paw to eat, this is it, and it is also regarded as delicious by everyone.

Wine. It is the best wine, a thousand cups are too little; Dishes, four cold dishes, four hot dishes with a balance, so delicious that you can't stop eating, is the tableware used, but also the celadon produced by the top grade torture cellar, clear as ice, crystal warm and moist like jade, touch it makes people love it.

In addition, there is ice around to relieve heat, and it is not ordinary to eat.

What kind of high-minded talk, drinking and guessing are all saved. Even the beauties hurriedly sent by the Jiaofang Division tried their best to play the piano and dance, but they did not attract the attention of the two adults, and they were favored by the two adults, and they all said that the people take food as the sky. Cui's uncle and nephew are not saints, and it is the first time they have eaten such a delicious thing. You don't need Liu Yuan's invitation. The two of them seemed to be swept away by the delicacies on the table.

One disk is empty, and two disks are empty......

Liu Yuan hadn't eaten much, and when he saw that the plates on the table were almost empty, he consciously drank some juice or something, and didn't grab food with the two officials, and saw that Cui Tingshi's clothes had leftovers and Cui Jing's beard stained the vegetable juice. The vegetable juice dripped, which was so funny that Liu Yuan couldn't hold back, so he didn't laugh.

What a thorn in the history of the book. Not a mortal yet? Talking about being a beggar and being a lazy official, it seems that he is still at ease.

Just now Liu Yuan was still envious of the prestige and pomp of the two when they ran away, and now it seems that he doesn't have to be jealous of others, no matter what he does, the purpose is to make himself more fed, more ambiguous, and live a more nourishing life.

In less than two quarters of an hour, seven of the eight dishes were empty, only the plate of braised pork and a piece of braised pork with bright color, distinct layers, and a strange luster, suddenly there was a soft sound, and two pairs of ivory chopsticks collided, and the two pairs of chopsticks hit the braised pork at the same time, and they bumped into each other.

Seeing that the braised pork that was about to be coerced was intercepted, Cui Tingshi was furious in his heart, and raised his head suddenly, just as he wanted to see that it was a guy who was not long-eyed and dared to snatch it by himself, but he didn't expect to look up and see Cui Jingzheng looking at him with a cold face, which scared Cui Tingshi into a cold sweat.

Nima, eating well, forgot that this is not in the mansion, sitting opposite, not his colleagues or subordinates, it is his own uncle, the dignified Ministry of Works, Lord Shangshu, is looking at himself with an unhappy face at the moment, obviously, he is angry that he dares to rob him of food.

"That~~~ I'm full, third uncle, please use it slowly." Cui Tingshi hurriedly "humbled" and loosened the chopsticks that had been holding the braised pork and took it back.

Cui Jing smiled proudly, picked up the last piece of braised pork, put it in his mouth, and ate it with relish.

"Oh~~"

After eating, Cui Jing burped comfortably and put down his chopsticks very satisfied.

Although this ingredient is ordinary, it is very delicious, and Cui's uncle and nephew are very satisfied, especially Cui Jing, the master of the Ministry of Industry, who has eaten so many juices and snacks just now, and now has eaten so many wines and delicacies, his face is a little like a red color, and he has been smiling all the time, and he touches his round stomach with his hand from time to time, and he is very happy.

I haven't eaten so happily for a long time, I remember the last time I was in a flood when I was inspecting the river, and I was trapped on a hill for two days and two nights.

After eating, a maidservant girl sent hot towels and water basins, and carefully took away the vegetable residues on the clothes for the two officials, and this simple and delicious meal was completed.

Cui Jing, who was known as a thousand cups and was not drunk, was a little drunk, and sat on the sofa again, with slightly reddened eyes, looking at Liu Yuan, who was a little restrained, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

This improved Tianfu incense, the alcohol concentration is about 40 degrees, and the Tang Dynasty is only 20 degrees, that is, it is about the same as beer, many of them even have no degree of beer, what the poem says "wine is less than a thousand cups of confidants", it is not an exaggeration, drink it, it will become urine for a while, and it will be gone when you pee.

At that time, it was not who had a good amount of wine, but who had a big stomach and could hold more.

Cui Jing, who was a little drunk, stared at Liu Yuan like that, how could there be any official authority, it was clearly the eyes of the elders looking at the younger generations, as the saying goes, "The mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she looks, the more satisfied she is", but now Cui Jing is more satisfied with Liu Yuan.

The most important thing is that he has read Liu Yuan's information, Liu Yuan's growth road, no background, no noble support, in a word, relying on his own hands to start from scratch, Rao is just a small businessman, but he is also an excellent craftsman, the number one talent in the north, with such ideals and pursuits before he is an adult, it is very rare.

Cui Jing asked himself, that kind of environment, even if he was himself, he did not do as well as Liu Yuan.

In fact, what satisfies Cui Jing the most is Liu Yuan's attitude towards the family.

When fighting for family property, Liu Guang and his wife did not act like a brother, but like a robber, taking property when their brother was rich, but when it was difficult, in order to draw a clear line, even the younger brother was driven out of the clan, and the behavior was extremely disgraceful, but Liu Yuan still let him go lightly, repaid his grievances with virtue, and did not pursue revenge if he had the ability. put the family first, but when Yumanlou Chen Chang designed to frame him, he was very decisive.

The grievances are clear, and these actions are very consistent with Cui Jing's idea of "putting the family first in everything".

The mud can't support the wall, but a good seedling, it's easy to hold up, a piece of beautiful jade, as long as a little carving, can exude its own brilliance.

"Lord Shangshu, Lord Thorn Shi, the lack of preparation, coarse tea and light rice, let the two of you be wronged." Liu Yuan said modestly.

Cui Tingshi said with a smile: "Yes, yes, the more simple and ordinary things are, the best way to show off their cooking skills, it seems that this official will have to run here more in the future, and eat food." ”

"Lord Thorn Shi can come, and no one is welcome, that is the luck of the villain." Liu Yuan hurriedly responded.

Cui Jing scolded with a smile: "You kid, you are willing to spend energy on eating, and if you put these thoughts on learning, you will definitely be able to achieve greater achievements." ”

Scolding as a kid, relatively speaking, this is a kind of closeness, and being able to get Shangshu's laughter and scolding is a very enviable thing, and Liu Yuan also felt flattered when he heard it.

"Yes, yes, Lord Shangshu is extremely trained, and the little ones must study hard." Liu Yuanlian should accept Cui Jing's kindness.

After working all day, with his words, it's worth it, and when someone wants to fight his own idea, he has to weigh his own weight, after all, he is so close to Lord Shangshu.

Cui Jing glanced at Liu Yuan, sat up straight, and asked Liu Yuan with a smile: "Liu Yuan, I heard that you were expelled from the Jintian Liu family, but is there such a thing?" ”

It can't be revenge, right?

Liu Yuan felt a pang in his heart: Don't, I have spent so much effort in order to remove the "big mountain" of the family, so that no one can take care of him and he can be free, and the snobbish and poor clansmen will bring him nothing, some are just trouble.

"Lord Shangshu, the past has passed, and the villain doesn't want to mention it anymore." Liu Yuan hurriedly responded.

A small Jintian Liu family, so small that it can be said to be ignored, Cui Jing naturally will not be interested in paying attention to these things, hearing that Liu Yuan does not have the backing of the family, and he is not tired, this is better, and the probability of recruiting him will be higher at that time.

"Well, I see, how can you have a match?" Cui Jing asked lightly.

Cui Tingshi on the side felt a pang in his heart: The third uncle finally made a move.

Get married? What is this old boy going to do? Why is she like a mother-in-law, so fond of gossip?

Slander to slander, Liu Yuan said with a "sad" face: "Since I was a child, my family was poor, my parents died early, and I was sent to the Jinyu family as an apprentice very early, and what woman can afford me." ”

Sure enough, there is no marriage match, Cui Jing is relieved, now he is relieved, he is most afraid that Liu Yuan has a marriage match, and it will be troublesome to operate at that time, and it is easy to provoke right and wrong.

"Yes, you did a very good job today, and the official is very satisfied, so let's do it, which girl do you like, say it, the official sells you a face, is your matchmaker, and says something for you."

As soon as he finished saying this, Cui's uncle and nephew all stared at Liu Yuan, and there seemed to be expectation in their eyes.

When Liu Yuan heard this, he was taken aback: What? A matchmaker at the level of Shangshu? (To be continued.) )
