Jiang Yuanliu has tasted the barbecue of this era, and the taste is really indescribable.

The two of them went into the kitchen, although Jiang Fengmao did not officially introduce Jiang Yuanliu's identity, but no one was a fool, knowing that Jiang Yuanliu was the daughter of the princess of the protector, even if he didn't pay attention to it, it was not something that these slaves could despise.

The cook is a fat woman in her early forties, she is a cronie brought by Qi Jingxian from her mother's family, so she naturally looks down on Jiang Yuanliu very much, and said in a sour tone: "If the second lady wants to eat anything, just ask for it, how can I bother you to do it yourself." ”

Jiang Yuanliu didn't pay attention to her, but said directly: "Can there be beef and mutton and spices?" ”

"There are a few spices you mentioned, but they are all top-level treasures from the Western Regions, and they can't be used for recreation at will. The cook secretly rolled her eyes.

"How expensive is it that I can't use?" Jiang Yuanliu stared at the cook with a smile, presumably the matter of her making a fuss about Qi Jingxian's courtyard had not yet come out, otherwise this fat cook would not dare to say anything.

"That'...... Those are tributes, the emperor rewarded the grandfather of the country, and his gold and ...... "The fat cook lady didn't dare to look directly at Jiang Yuanliu, although this second lady didn't look favored, but after all, it was the blood of the grandfather of the country, if he really killed her, the grandfather of the country would not punish his own daughter.

Jiang Yuanliu raised his eyebrows lightly, and said in a loud voice: "I am the princess of the protectorate, no matter how expensive things are, I can still have them!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the fat cook didn't dare to say more, how could she dare to say that the spices of the tribute were more expensive than the princess of the protectorate, so she could only obediently find out what Jiang Yuanliu needed.

"Second Miss, you really don't know what the old slave of chili pepper you are talking about......" the fat cook said with a bitter face.

Jiang Yuanliu sighed, there is no chili pepper in the barbecue, and the fragrance is less than half! But it's not easy to find so many spices now, after all, this is not a flower grower.

"Okay, get me the charcoal fire." Jiang Yuanliu took the marinated beef and mutton and charcoal fire to find Jiang Fengmao happily.

The Furong Garden is the closest to the main courtyard where Jiang Fengmao is shrunk, and unlike the Hibiscus Garden full of flowers and trees, the main courtyard is simple and generous, because Jiang Fengmao is obsessed with practicing martial arts, and there are wooden piers for practicing martial arts in the courtyard.

"Father." Jiang Yuanliu instructed the cook to put down the beef and mutton.

Jiang Fengmao was talking about things with Gu Jinshu, and when he heard Jiang Yuanliu's voice, they all looked towards the door, and saw the fat cook holding a lot of things and panting behind Jiang Yuanliu.

As soon as she saw Jiang Fengmao, the fat cook fell to her knees, "Grandpa Guo, the second lady is too deceitful, the slave is the cook in the dining room, but she is called by the second lady as an inferior slave!" ”

Jiang Yuanliu was stunned, is this cook missing a string in her brain? Doing such a non-technical appearance in front of her!

Jiang Fengmao's brows were furrowed, his cold and hard face was majestic and deep, and a dark glint flashed in his eyes, this cook was Qi Jingxian's person, and he knew it clearly.

"Presumptuous! A slave and maid dare to commit a crime! Gu Jinshu slapped the table angrily and scolded loudly, he knew that Jiang Fengmao was not good at showing his love for Jiang Yuanliu in public, so he took over this important task himself.

"I ...... It's the second lady...... "The cook was so frightened that her face turned white, and after careful discussion, Gu Jinshu was Mrs.'s distant cousin, so Gu Xiaohou often came to the Huguo Mansion, and there was a courtyard in the mansion.

Gu Xiaohou is still deeply favored by the grandfather of the country, and she will never dare to offend the protection of his wife.

"Get out of here and get fine!" Gu Jinshu's voice was cold, "The second lady of the Protector's Mansion is also something that you can fight against as a slave!" ”

The cook was staggered and dragged out, and wanted to ask for mercy but was stopped by the guards.

Jiang Yuanliu had never seen Gu Jinshu's angry appearance, and she was a little distracted for a while, and because Gu Jinshu was grateful for her maintenance, she could faintly guess the reason why the Protector had a cold attitude towards her, but she couldn't understand it.

She was unfamiliar with life when she first arrived in the capital, so she could only rely on the power of the protector, but in the end, she could only protect herself by herself.

"Father, I specially roasted beef and mutton for you, and Jinshu will also taste it." Jiang Yuanliu gave up the bad thoughts in his mind, and greeted the two of them to eat meat with a smile.

Because in the main courtyard, Jiang Fengmao is not better than making a show to others, so he can't help but have a loving smile on his face.

"Weird, where did you get this strange thing?" Jiang Fengmao looked at the stove holding the charcoal fire, and after looking at it for a long time, he realized that it was actually a shield with a thin piece of iron on it.

Jiang Yuanliu said with a smile: "Father and Jinshu are just waiting to taste the deliciousness." ”

After speaking, Jiang Yuanliu put the marinated beef and mutton on the iron sheet and roasted it, and the strong aroma of the meat came to the nose against the backdrop of spices, and the taste made people appetizing.

The lamb is made of the finest lamb, with a slight touch of fat, and the fat is bubbling out under the charcoal fire, and the aroma is strong and attractive.

Jiang Fengmao never ate roast mutton when he was marching and fighting, and the rude method retained the most original fragrance, and he could never taste that taste again after returning to Beijing.

It's not that the elaborate delicacy is bad, but Jiang Fengmao, who has always been wild, doesn't like cumbersome and complicated food, and advocates the original taste.

The smell of roast mutton emanated, which immediately attracted Jiang Fengmao, regardless of the scorching heat, he picked up a piece of oily roast mutton and put it in his mouth, his eyes widened, and he nodded in admiration.

"The taste is fragrant but not greasy, there is no fishy taste of mutton, but the aroma is rich, and the taste is very good!" Jiang Fengmao praised.

Different from Jiang Fengmao's rudeness, Gu Jinshu behaved elegantly, and he was full of the nobility of the family, he picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it on the plate, let it cool before sending it to his mouth, and then said with a smile: "Liu Er's mind is exquisite, and she actually makes the fishy mutton so delicious." ”

Recognized by the two people, Jiang Yuanliu laughed, she was not satisfied with the roast mutton, not to mention that the meat quality was not good, and there was a lack of many spices, fortunately, the current mutton was a good sheep that was pollution-free and pure grass, so that the taste buds could enjoy it by relying on the deliciousness of the mutton itself.

"This method is more time-saving and labor-saving than roasting whole sheep, and the taste is more delicious, if you are marching and fighting to reward the three armies, you can do so!" Jiang Fengmao thought more.

Jiang Yuanliu thought for a while and said, "If you can find a plant called dry tea, also called benzoin fennel, you don't need spices to taste it, and it will be very delicious if you put dry tea and sprinkle it with salt." ”

Dry tea is cumin, the smell is fragrant and strong, very suitable for cooking meat, but also can regulate the stomach and appetize, dispel wind and relieve pain, but unfortunately she has not met it.

Jiang Yuanliu described to Jiang Fengmao and the others what cumin looked like, and Gu Jinshu said thoughtfully: "I seem to have seen the dry tea you mentioned, and there were fearful businessmen who came to the court and brought some. ”

"The fearful person you are talking about is white-skinned, beautiful, with thick eyebrows and big eyes?" Jiang Yuanliu was taken aback, could it be that he was a Huifu? You must know that in Huifu, agriculture is the mainstay, planting cotton, wheat, corn, rice and other crops.

As soon as he thought of the delicious rice, Jiang Yuanliu's eyes lit up.

Gu Jinshu was slightly stunned, it was rare for him to see Jiang Yuanliu so curious about something, recalled it, and said: "Then try what happened ten years ago, the vultures are indeed as you said." ”

"Jinshu, do me a favor, can you find more dry tea?" Jiang Yuanliu grabbed Gu Jinshu's cuffs.

Gu Jinshu is forbearant and resourceful, but he hates trouble the most.

But at this time, Gu Jinshu nodded with a smile, "It's a trivial matter, although the fearful people don't come often, but they can still find it if they inquire carefully, and I also want to taste how delicious the dry tea in Liu'er's mouth is." ”

"If I can find the Vulture, I can let you eat more delicious!" Jiang Yuanliu's eyes narrowed, and there was a happy smile on his face.

Looking at the two people who were talking and laughing, a worry flashed in Jiang Fengmao's eyes, and then he was relieved, rubbed Jiang Yuanliu's determination, and said, "You kid has a lot of wonderful ideas, I don't know where you learned it?" ”

"Ahem, I flipped through the books in Daddy's study when I had nothing to do, and the rumors and anecdotes I heard in the teahouse, and I also read the miscellaneous books in the booksstand, and I forgot where I saw them." Jiang Yuanliu was a little weak-hearted.

However, Jiang Fengmao did not ask deeply, but sighed: "It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. ”

Jiang Fengmao's eyes were a little distant, he wanted to tell Jiang Yuanliu all the scenes he had seen back then, and then he would be able to receive his daughter's adoring gaze.

But before he could speak, he heard the guard hurriedly walk in and say, "The eldest lady asks to see you." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Fengmao's eyes lit up, and then he sat up straight, his expression was not angry and arrogant, and he didn't have Fang Cai's kind and kind smile at all.

When Qi Ruge came in, she saw three people sitting around something strange with a frozen atmosphere, and she was used to it Jiang Fengmao was full of deterrence.

"Father, Mother just had heart palpitations, if you have time, can you visit Mother?" Qi Ruge's voice was soft and soft, very harmless, and a pair of watery eyes were full of pleading.

Jiang Fengmao bowed slightly, "I already know, I'll go later." ”

Jiang Yuanliu was a little weak-hearted, and secretly looked at Jiang Fengmao, but she didn't expect to be discovered by Gu Jinshu.

After Qi Ruge left, Gu Jinshu asked thoughtfully, "Liu'er, are you in trouble?" Otherwise, why be so timid? ”

Jiang Yuanliu is not afraid of heaven and earth, since he has Teng Zhuyue, the guard of the high wall of force, he is even more like catching turtles in the sky and the moon and going down to the river, there is nothing that Jiang Yuanliu does not dare to do.

"Ahem...... No, no, what trouble can I cause, don't talk nonsense! Jiang Yuanliu denied it, how could she admit it? Because she was too lazy to deal with the affairs of the back house, she simply did it once and for all, and tore her face with the Duchess of Heguo.

Although this era is not so harsh on women, the marriage of children is in the hands of the housewife.

She offended Qi Jingxian, which was to ruin her marriage.
