Chapter 14 Dongpo Meat
"Miss, Miss, wake up!" When Qiu Yue picked up the young lady in Shili Pavilion outside the city, she had been asleep.
Han Weier woke up from someone else's shaking. When she opened her eyes, it turned out to be Qiu Yue!
"I'm not dead?" Han Weier asked Qiuyue in surprise.
She had heard the devil's aunt say that she was going to take her home! It turned out to be this family, not the other family! I'm scared to death of this baby!
"Dead for what? Miss, tell me who is going to harm you? I went to her to settle the score. Qiu Yue heard Han Wei'er's question, and the expression on her face immediately changed from worry to anger.
"Qiuyue, it's okay, it's all over. By the way, Qiuyue, why are you here? ”
"That Ruying messenger, I came to the other courtyard to find me, and asked me to come to Shili Pavilion to pick you up at the end of the day."
"Oh." Fortunately, I asked Qiu Yue to come and pick me up, if I was sent back to Fengfu directly, then it would be really troublesome in the future, and I would definitely not be able to leave the house freely. Han Weier secretly rejoiced.
"No, miss, didn't you say yes? Take good care of yourself? How can you take care of yourself like this? Qiu Yue said distressedly: "I can't let you go alone anywhere in the future, it's useless to talk too much, anyway, I'm going to be with you closely." ”
It gives me a headache when I think about it, and the last time I only left for a while, the young lady fell into the water, almost died, and lost her memory; This time I left for a few days, although there were no physical injuries, but I came back in a faint. asked her what happened, and she refused to say a word, how worrying!
"It's okay, don't you think I'm good? After that, I'll take you with me wherever I go, and I'll take you with me when I go to the toilet, okay? Han Weier pinched Qiu Yue's little face and teased.
"Miss, you're out of shape again." Qiu Yue burst out laughing.
"Let's go, Qiuyue, let's go to the best silver building." Thinking that I haven't been back to Fengfu for a few days, it should be better to go back and bring some gifts at this time. Han Weier is going to Yinlou to make a few toothbrushes for her family.
In the Ruyi Building, Han Weier asked for pen and ink to draw the figures. She chose two pieces of jasper as handles and prepared them to give to her grandfather and wife; chose a piece of black jade as a handle to give to the eldest brother; He also chose two pieces of white jade as a handle and prepared them for his sister-in-law and himself.
By the way, let's make one for Prince Ping! has been taking care of others, and it is time to give something back to others. Han Weier chose another piece of black jade as a handle, and prepared to give it to Prince Ping, who was as humble as jade.
She thought of the white jade-handled toothbrush that Mr. Xizi gave her, so she drew a rose flower pattern with leaves on a picture of a white jade handle, and asked the master to produce it according to the picture.
Obviously a person who looks so handsome, he has to cover his face with a mask, it's really a tyrannical thing! The thought of Mr. Xizi makes her have a toothache!
"Hey, as soon as this Wei'er girl leaves, our Moon Pavilion will suddenly lose its vitality!" Summer complained to Ruying while tidying up her things.
Ruying put her finger to her lips and made a silent gesture towards Summer, then pointed to the study.
In the study, Yun Feiyue took the toothbrush that Miss Feng had only used for a day, and she had been looking at it for a long time. He rubbed the pattern of roses at the end of the white jade handle, remembering her joy and satisfaction when she saw the rose bushes in the small courtyard; remembered her serious nonsense to herself in the little dark room; remembered her delicate girl pulling the corner of her clothes and hiding behind her to shout for help; remembering her surprise and gratitude when she saw this toothbrush; Then he thought of what his aunt said, of her status as a quasi-princess, and of her marriage in half a year. Yun Feiyue slowly put the white jade toothbrush back into the box, and then solemnly put it in the bottom cabinet.
After the six exquisite toothbrushes were made, Han Weier carefully selected twelve exquisite jewelry boxes and went home.
Back at Yulan Garden, Han Weier called the three miscellaneous envoys and Yiguan, and asked them to grind tangerine peel into a fine powder, mix it with fine salt, and pack it in six small jewelry boxes.
She paired the toothbrush with tooth powder one-on-one and put her share aside. Then he opened the box one by one, pointed it out to Qiu Yue, and told her which one was given to which person, and then relieved Qiu Yue to give away the toothbrush and tooth powder.
I haven't seen it for a few days, and the magnolia in the yard is in full bloom. Blooming gracefully and quietly, the white and warm jade-like petals exude bursts of fresh and elegant fragrance, which is refreshing!
Han Weier sat boredly in the chair in front of the bookcase, looking out the window in a daze. When I think of myself, it would be a great thing if I could have a good rest for a day; But now it feels like there's nothing to do, and it's even more scary!
Without Mr. Xizi, there would be no Yujue, and without Yujue, you can't wear it back. But she really doesn't want to go to that tiger's den to find Mr. Xizi anymore! Life is precious, it's not right to mess around!
Let's live life for the time being! Find something to do for yourself, don't waste this great time!
Since there is no toothbrush yet, it is not yet in the Song Dynasty, which means that there is no Su Dada, and there is no Aunt Li!
Hehe, Su Dada, I'm sorry, I'm going to borrow flowers to offer the Buddha today.
"Qiuyue, take me to the kitchen, I'm going to show you a hand for dinner today." Han Weier got up from her chair excitedly.
In the kitchen, Han Weier was busy. She asked Qiuyue to help scrape the skin of a piece of pork belly and cut it into square pieces of meat about 5 centimeters square. Han Weier put the cut meat pieces in boiling water and boiled them for a few minutes, then took them out and washed them with cold water again. Then put the large casserole prepared by Qiuyue, use a bamboo grate to pad the bottom, first spread the green onion and ginger shreds, and then put the pork skin side down neatly on it, add sugar, soy sauce, rice wine, and cover the meat. Finally, cover the casserole pot with a lid and bring it to a boil over a hot fire. After boiling, switch to simmering over low heat.
It took more than an hour to toss. When Han Weier heard the sizzling sound in the casserole, she knew that the soup in the pot should have almost been absorbed.
Han Weier found a white porcelain plate of Eight Immortal Lotus Flowers, spread the green vegetables that had been blanched in advance, and then she opened the lid of the casserole, carefully pinched out the meat in the casserole piece by piece, and stacked the meat skin upwards neatly, and then poured some of the soup in the casserole on it!
Perfect! Han Weier was secretly proud when she saw the finished product.
"Xi'er, is this what you did?" Seeing the brightly colored new dishes on the dining table, Feng Manlou asked in surprise.
"Yes, father, it took me nearly two hours to make this for your daughter, so let's taste it!"
"Oops, simple is so delicious! Quick, everyone try it, it's really delicious! "I tasted the first bite of the wind, and I was busy recommending it to my family.
Grandpa Feng commented while eating: "This dish has thin skin and tender meat, mellow and juicy, crispy and not broken, fragrant and glutinous but not greasy." It's really amazing! ”
"Our family Xi'er is getting more and more powerful now, and there are so many tricks!" Madame Wind's eyes were crooked with a smile.
"I haven't thanked my sister for the toothbrush, and now I'm making such a delicious dish, sister, you're really good now!" Sister-in-law Jinyuan also smiled and agreed.
"That's right, Xi'er, how did you come up with this little head? That toothbrush is really easy to use, and this dish is really delicious! The eldest brother was eating with great interest, and asked with interest while eating meat.
"Uh, uh, I dreamed about it. I didn't expect it to be able to make it, and now it looks pretty good! Han Weier rolled her eyes and replied a little weakly.
"Yes, yes, yes, yes, Do you have a name for this dish? ”
"Let's call it Dongpo meat!"
By the end of the meal, there was only a little soup left on the plate. Just the sister-in-law who doesn't usually eat much meat ate a lot of it!
Everyone finished dinner happily and warmly, and the eldest brother helped the sister-in-law to go back to the room to rest first.
In the hall, Han Weier accompanied Grandpa Feng and his wife to drink tea and chat.
"Father, mother, I have a request, I don't know if I can tell it." Han Weier thought twice. I still want to say it.
"You kid, they're all a family, what can you talk about?" Madame Wind said with disgust.
"That is, your mother is right, you can say it, and then make a decision." Feng Manlou put down the tea cup in his hand and said to Han Weier with a smile.
"Father, mother, I think, I want to open my own restaurant." Han Weier said weakly. She bit her fingers lightly and looked at Grandpa Feng with longing little eyes, and she didn't dare to breathe. I feel that this request is indeed a bit excessive.
Hearing Han Wei'er's words, Grandpa Feng and Mrs. Feng looked at each other.
Mrs. Feng took Han Wei'er's hand and gently persuaded: "Xi'er, you are all people with a marriage contract, and it is not appropriate to go out and show your face again." Besides, in less than half a year, you will get married, and my mother still thinks that you can spend more time with me and your father at home. ”
"Mother, I also thought that I could exercise my housekeeping skills. It's good to get married, and you can be in charge of the palace, so as not to lose face in our Fengfu because you can't manage it. Han Weier finally found a reason that could barely be spoken!
Hearing Han Wei'er say this, Mrs. Feng couldn't say anything more, she raised her eyes to look at Grandpa Feng and motioned for him to have an idea.
"Xi'er, if you definitely want to do this, your mother and I won't stop you, but you must know that doing business is very hard." Feng Manlou took a sip of tea, then put the tea cup back on the case in front of him, and looked at Han Weier solemnly to remind.
"Father, mother, don't worry, as long as I am allowed to do it, I will not be afraid of hard work, and there will be a beginning and an end." Hearing Grandpa Feng's words of relief, Han Wei'er immediately raised three fingers with an oath.
"Well, now that you've made up your mind, it's decided. It just so happens that our family has a shop on Chaoyang Street that is idle, so I will leave it to you to take care of. No matter what the need, just look for Steward Zhao. ”
"Thank you, Father! Thank you Mother! Han Weier was so excited that she almost jumped!
"Xi'er is spoiled by you!" Mrs. Feng looked at Feng Manlou and said angrily.
"Of course, my own daughter, we are not spoiled by our parents, who spoils?" Feng Manlou smiled dotingly.
Listening to Grandpa Feng's words, Han Wei'er couldn't help but have a sour nose and almost cried. It's nice to have parents here!!
