Chapter 74: Eat Well
Hua Mian waited at the gate of the courtyard with a food box in both hands, rich people are really troublesome, there are so many things to eat, it is more difficult than coaxing children to eat, no wonder there are no fat people in this family.
If you wait for the dish to be cold, if you don't eat it at the most suitable temperature, the taste of the meal will be reduced.
Hearing the maid who had gone to deliver the message calling for her to come over, Hua Mian quickly walked through the front yard and came to the front of the house, where the maid lifted the veil and motioned for her to enter.
I didn't see it from the outside of the courtyard before, but even the curtain of this house was made of a veil embroidered with dark lines, and a burst of floral fragrance wafted from the part of the curtain that was opened.
As soon as Hua Mian walked into the house with a food box, she heard a female voice shouting, "Why are you?" Although the voice was not loud, the tone was full of surprise.
Very good, this effect is also one of the purposes for Hua Mian to insist on delivering the meal in person, as for the other purposes, of course, he is worried that other maids will deliver the food, and he can't explain his food clearly, so he can't achieve the best effect.
"Let's let, be careful not to bump into it" Hua Mian walked past Li'er, put the food box on the low stool next to the round table, and walked to the couch that Sikong Yu was leaning on, made a blessing and said, "Greetings to Miss Six, I am Xia Huamian, the head chef of the big kitchen, responsible for all the meals of Miss Six in the house."
"The name is good", Sikong Yu raised his eyes and looked at the person standing in front of the couch, it seems that his hair has been tidied up, but the overall appearance is still so ordinary and inconspicuous, but it's a pity that the name is gone.
"I should have explained that the big kitchen doesn't have to bring food over"
The Ji steward is really good at finding trouble, everyone has said that he has explained, and he let himself send it over, seeing the other party's attitude, Huamian is not annoyed, after all, it is work, without waiting for Sikong Yu to speak again, he walked back to the round table and opened the food box, took out the dishes and put them on the table one by one.
There are not many dishes, a standard four dishes and one soup, another dim sum and a small jar of wine, and a full table is also set up on the small round table.
As soon as the dish is taken out of the food box, the aroma wafts through the whole room, but it does not conflict with the fragrance of the flowers in the house.
"It's so beautiful! These are all eaten? Li'er walked to the round table, and when she saw the dishes put out by Hua Mian, she couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, "Miss, come and see, these dishes are really beautiful"
"Don't babble, what do you look like", I've been with this maid for eight years, and I haven't seen anything in the royal capital? Even if it was a banquet for the princes and nobles, she had not been to a banquet with her, what kind of dishes could make her so amazed?
Sikong Yu got up from the bed, and a black silk on the cushion poured down, scattered behind him, with no shoes on his feet, and walked barefoot to the round table, really shocked when he saw the food on the table.
It is as if the garden in the house has been moved to this small round table in his room, and the dishes are bright and pleasing to the eye, and you can see the traces of flowers in each dish, and even the snacks are made into the shape of flowers.
Seeing that the young lady did not have an expression of disgust with this table of dishes, Li'er hurriedly set up the dishes and chopsticks to serve the rice, moved a chair and invited Sikong Yu to come and sit down, and took out a mutton fat white jade cup from the cabinet on the side and handed it to Hua Mian.
"Miss, you see this dish is so beautiful, I'll bring it over for you to taste," Li'er stood beside Sikong Yu and held a pair of long silver chopsticks and cloth dishes.
Hua Mian poured the wine from the altar into the jade cup, and a golden flower faintly appeared on the inside of the jade cup that had received the water.
