Chapter 47: On-site conditioning
"Zhu Xin, why did you come here when you weren't in the back kitchen to prepare for dinner?" Yuan Shu looked at Zhu Xin, a little dissatisfied.
Because of cooking, the chef was covered with the smell of oil smoke, which was very disgusting to the nobles. Unless you have eaten well and want to be rewarded, then call it up, and then you will soon go down.
Like Zhu Xin, at the beginning of the banquet, it was the first time he came up without being summoned. For Yuan Shu to do it, this is an unruly practice.
"Zhu was ordered to prepare for tonight's banquet......" Zhu Xin replied, neither humble nor arrogant, his boss was Sun Ce, not Yuan Shu. If you behave too humbly, you will lose Sun Ce's face, "The type of dinner should be the sole responsibility of Zhu." At least, you, General Zuo, did not specify a certain kind. ”
"What other types of feasts can there be?" Yuan Shu asked angrily.
"Depending on the environment, the nature of the banquet, and the requirements of the atmosphere, it will naturally have a different nature. For example, this is a welcome party, and the theme should be happiness and freedom, so that the atmosphere will be more cheerful. Zhu Xin replied.
Then he looked at Ma Riyan and asked, "Mrs. Ma, I don't know what Zhu said, what do you think?" ”
Ma Riyan didn't expect Zhu Xin to ask her for her opinion, and after thinking about it, he found that he didn't hear what the other party said clearly. But only the word 'freedom' did not miss it, which is what she longs for the most.
"Well, there's some truth." Ma Riyan nodded.
Seeing this, Yuan Shu could only swallow in one breath. Tonight she used the excuse to welcome Ma Ripan, of course, to respect her ideas. It's just that I didn't expect that Zhu Xin actually used Ma Riyan as an excuse, and I don't know if it was Sun Ce's instruction.
At the beginning, she used Ma Riyan to delay Sun Ce as an official. Now Zhu Xin Ma Riyan is an excuse, so that she can't help but suspect that this is Sun Ce's revenge on her. At least, she didn't think that Zhu Xin, a chef, could have such means.
"So, what kind of dinner are you going to come up with?" Yuan Shu planned to hear what he had to say.
"If you want to strengthen the friendship between the two, of course you have to masturbate!" Zhu Xin got up and came to the barbecue net, "It's fragrant, and with a glass of wine, the atmosphere will be completely up." ”
"Hahaha, what should I be, it's actually barbecue." Yuan Shu laughed when he saw this, "What do you mean, do you have to serve the food while roasting?" ”
"Why, could it be that General Zuo still has to test the poison? Freshly baked and eaten, if this can be poisoned, it is too unlucky. Zhu Xin teased.
As far as he knew, Yuan Shu really had to test the poison when he ate. Every time, it must be eaten by a special drug testing officer, and it can only be served to her after half an hour, otherwise it will not be eaten.
I don't know why it's so hypocritical, or if I say that there are too many people offended, there is a feeling of precariousness. Or is it that at this moment, Yuan Shu has really regarded himself as the emperor, but he just lacks an excuse to ascend the throne in the name of righteousness?
Zhu Xin just pretended not to know about this matter, and when he said this, the meaning of ridicule came up.
At the next place, Yan Xiang, Yuan Yin and others were also slightly dissatisfied when they heard this.
is the so-called king humiliating the death of his ministers, Zhu Xin ridiculed Yuan Shu like this, they can't be regarded as not seeing. The problem is that Yuan Shu has to test the poison before eating, and they have complained in private. However, this is a personal personality issue, and it has nothing to do with morality, and it is difficult to say.
For a while, I didn't know whether it was better to mix it or not.
"I'm just dissatisfied that you are so perfunctory for such an important banquet." Yuan Shu complained, "If it were my chefs, then I would definitely serve the most chic meals and dishes, instead of baking and eating them as I do now." ”
"General Zuo's words are wrong!" Zhu Xin smiled, "Who said that baked things are low-level?" I'm going to play well tonight, and if you and Taifu are not satisfied, it's not too late to punish you. It's not too early, otherwise, Zhu will fire? ”
"Whatever you want!" Yuan Shu didn't say anything when he heard this, and looked at what he did, and in the end, he would definitely be punished.
Thanks to the fact that it is now in the open air, the moon stars are sparse and slightly cold. Zhu Xin was roasting at the moment, and a large number of ingredients began to be grilled continuously. At the same time, a bowl of sweet wine brewed by one person was brought up by the Huotou army on Huang Gai's side.
"It's cold, and it will take a few minutes to bake, so please use a bowl of sweet wine to warm your body." Zhu Xin shouted not far away, but the work in hand did not stop at all, "It's all out of one pot, and if there is a problem, everyone will have an accident together." ”
"It's kind of interesting!" Yuan Shu looked closer, and the latter nodded, and her face was slightly better.
She would never have eaten anything that had not passed through her own hands, or left her eyes, or had not tried poison. It's not that she's hypocritical, but ...... Forget it, she wasn't going to explain anything to anyone.
Sweet wine is brewed, and the taste is not fragrant enough without eggs, but the feeling of sweet wine is very comfortable, especially when the weather is slightly cold.
Everyone is brewed with a pot of sweet wine, so she can't be the only one who has a problem. You must know that Sun Ce is also in the banquet, and it is impossible for Zhu Xin to harm Sun Ce.
In the past, when I tested for poison, I ate things that were left for half an hour, and no matter how delicious it was, it became slightly warm, and even cold. Especially in winter, fried things become greasy and very uncomfortable.
When he heard that Zhu Xin was going to barbecue as the theme of tonight, he was immediately strongly dissatisfied. But if you bake and eat it now, indeed, it's all pickled in batches, so you can't just be tricked by someone, right?
"Here it is, first course, cumin lamb kebabs!" Zhu Xin put down a handful of mutton skewers, sorted them by the soldiers, and gave them to everyone. Not much, three per person, but the lamb on it is big enough, each fat and thin, and it looks very comfortable.
After thinking about it, he added: "General Zuo, please feel free to sing and dance...... You can't everyone watch me cook, right? ”
"Yes, yes, song and dance!" Yuan Shu reacted at this time, how can this singing and dancing be less? As a result, watching Zhu Xin cooking there, everyone's attention was concentrated.
"Haha, I think this chef's cooking is more interesting." Ma Riyan said with a smile, looking at Zhu Xin, who was constantly shuttling in several kitchen utensils, this cooking method seemed to be a performance.
On-site cooking refers to cooking ingredients for guests on the spot. Allowing guests to clearly see the process of food from raw materials to delicious dishes is also a kind of performance to a certain extent.
Strictly speaking, if Zhu Xin puts all the cooking equipment in the middle of the banquet venue, it will be a very good cooking performance.
Now it's a little farther away, so I can't see it clearly, but at the same time, I don't have to worry about the smell of oil smoke all around. Just looking at it this way, it's still a bit of a drain on the eyes.
"Why don't you read on?" Yuan Shu thought about it and asked, and she found that Ma Riyan seemed to be in a good mood.
"It's okay, I'm curious, what dishes he will serve next!" Ma Riyan said lightly.
