Fiftieth octopus soup

The fish soup bubbled, and a burst of fresh aroma came to the nostrils. Song Yansheng was immediately attracted and walked over to check for a while. The fish soup was simmering on low heat, and it had become milky and tempting, so she carefully removed the lid, picked up the small plate on the side of the table, and threw the remaining few lotus seeds into it.

Hengbo frowned, and quietly took a few steps backβ€”she didn't want to be the test subject of the sixth girl anymore. The vinegared osmanthus fish made when I was in Jinling, as well as the eight-treasure duck last time, are either half-cooked or have a tricky taste. She deeply felt that her girl's cooking skills were the same as her handwriting, and she was really not very talented.

When Song Yansheng picked up the wooden spoon and took a bite, Hengbo subconsciously tightened his mouth to resist the feeding of the six girls. But this time, she didn't "embarras" Hengbo, she leaned over and tasted it, then raised her eyebrows, and beckoned with crooked eyes, "Jingyun, go and see if the bamboo tube rice just now is cooked?" It's time to eat. ”

The stone platform is near the water, and the smoke is swirling from afar, which is not interesting. There is a cup of Zhengshan small species on the case, the dishes have been placed, and the underwater fish occasionally jumped off the tail and splashed a string of water droplets.

Song Yansheng and Duan Xun sat opposite each other, Jingyun came to the bamboo tube rice, and was about to break the bamboo tube and pour the rice grains into the plate, when she saw it, she immediately stretched out her hand to stop it, "Hey, you can't eat it like this, the fragrance of the bamboo can't be eaten." You have to use a spoon like this, dig and eat. She slightly parted the two halves of the bamboo tube and showed them this.

Removing the burnt outer skin, the snow-white glutinous rice is revealed little by little, bringing out a strong aroma during the roasting. This way of eating is novel, Duan Xun took a bite, his phoenix eyes raised slightly, and he smiled and praised: "It tastes very good, this is also learned from your sister-in-law in Jinling?" ”

Song Yansheng's mouth was bulging, she shook her head, took down the teacup, and added a cup of tea to both of them. She took a sip of tea and swallowed it before saying, "No, I learned it from a pair of brothers." "To be exact, Chunsheng's idea, his ideas are endless, and he has great ideas about eating. Chunsheng and Yusheng were lonely when they were young, and occasionally there was rice and grain relief, but there was no meat, so they went to the bamboo forest to cut bamboo and tender bamboo shoots to burn this bamboo tube rice to eat. Ancient and modern literati and writers all love Yongzhu, and they probably wouldn't have thought that someone would take such an elegant thing to eat.

"Your Highness, you can taste the fish soup again."

Yokoba immediately looked up, took a few steps forward, and secretly tugged at her sleeve.

"Oh, what's wrong with you, you just started to winkle your eyebrows." Song Yansheng dragged his chin, ignored Hengbo's gesture, and watched with a smile as Duan Xun picked up the small porcelain bowl containing the soup.

"How's it taste?"

Hengbo was full of sweat on his forehead, trembling at the boldness of his own girl. What if you eat it badly, Your Highness? After staring and waiting for a second, two seconds, I saw that the golden and noble Sixth Highness put down the spoon, and his expression was still gentle and smiling.

This...... That's not right.

"Fabulous."

Yokobo immediately shifted his gaze to the bowl of soup, shocked. This fish soup is indeed in good condition, but your Highness, don't be fooled by this! Often the finished product of the six girls is good, if you taste it, it is really extremely inconsistent with the appearance, okay!

"You girl, what are you slandering in your heart?" Song Yansheng looked at her expression and couldn't help but smile, "Once born and twice matured, is it okay to have a little confidence in your girl?" As he spoke, he took a bowl from the casserole and handed it to her, patted the bamboo mat beside him and said, "Your Royal Highness the Sixth is friendly, don't be formal, sit down and taste it." And Jingyun, Yiyun, you also come. ”

Yiyun was eager to try, his eyes couldn't take his eyes off the bowl of soup, and he was the closest person to the pot just now, and he knew very well how fragrant and attractive the soup inside was.

Duan Xun didn't move, didn't say anything, just pinched the porcelain bowl, Feng Mu raised slightly, and his lips outlined an arc that seemed to be smiling but not smiling. Yiyun's steps were paused, and Jing Yunyi next to him raised his hand and pulled him back.

"Don't be presumptuous." He whispered a reminder in Yiyun's ear. Just kidding, it was made by the sixth girl herself, and naturally only the master could taste it.

"Transverse waves, transverse waves......"

"She is the girl next to the sixth girl, so she can naturally taste it."

Yiyun was caught by Duan Xun's glance and retreated to the corner, and stretched out his hand to draw a circle with great resentment and shouted, "Master, master doesn't eat fish." ”

Duan Xun really doesn't like to eat fish, he is troublesome. This is true, but it cannot be said now.

Jing Yun glared at him with warning.

This fish soup was caught because it was used, plus a dry spice and herb, the heat was just right, and fortunately there was nothing wrong, so it tasted fresh and fragrant and could be passed, but Song Yansheng asked himself that he didn't meet the standard of the palace meal, but Duan Xun gave extra face and drank two bowls in a row. Her smile widened, her eyes lit up, and she said, "Wait, I have a way to eat it myself." She took another spoonful of fish soup and poured it on top of the bamboo rice she had just made, and it seemed to taste a little more fragrant.

"That's good." Duan Xun also replied with a smile.

The three sentences are not far from praise, but Song Yansheng is not very embarrassed. A meal at lunch was very pleasant, she forgot about the bad things in Yangzhou for a while, and the amount of food was a little bigger than before.

Duan Xun stopped his chopsticks, took a wet handkerchief to wipe his hands, picked up the teacup and looked at the six girls in front of him while drinking.

"Yangzhou granary is in a hurry, if the payment has not arrived, what are you going to do?" He seemed to say it casually, as an after-dinner pastime, but she paused when she heard the action, and her round and bright eyes were raised, and she looked at him and frowned slightly.

"I heard that it was the third prince who went south for disaster relief, so I didn't have hope for it. According to the time, it is time for the grain to arrive. But there was still no movement on my uncle's side, but I was afraid that it was the deliberate delay that caused it. ”

Now that the displaced people are scattered, the disaster relief funds are escorted all the way to the provinces in the south of the Yangtze River through the Grand Canal, although it is necessary to close to the most severely affected Lin'an Mansion, but according to the effectiveness of the imperial court, it should have been allocated long ago between three or two days.

"After I arrived in Yangzhou last night, I received a message." Duan Xun said unhurriedly, "The team escorting the silver here, was robbed on the road, and there was a fatality, and the death was the son of a family." ”

Hearing this, Song Yansheng lost his mind to eat, and asked, "Shouldn't this escort of the disaster silver grain be a soldier, how can the son and brother of the family send it?" ”

"This time I went south for disaster relief, and the big families in Beijing all made efforts to stuff people in, just waiting for meritorious service."

She sneered, "So the credit was not earned, and I gave my life in vain?" Confused, the Third Highness can't die of happiness, the whole money has been robbed, and there are still so many homeless people in Yangzhou City, don't you just wait to sit and eat until it collapses. After thinking about it, he shook his head and reprimanded, "This kind of bad move is estimated to be inseparable from this Third Highness." Why was it robbed by chance? Who would dare to rob it? This is for my uncle, for the Song family. "To be more precise, that cabinet minister, Pan Zongjiang, is the object of more suspicion.

If the dam on the Fujiang River is not repaired, the affected people will be homeless and displaced. The backflow of the river has become a waterlogged situation, and this embankment repair is not a trivial matter that can be solved in a day or two. In such a grim situation, it is not that all of us are working together for disaster relief, but that the interests are secretly tilted to make stumbling blocks, and it is the common people who are fighting back and forth, and it is all the people who suffer!

She doesn't know Pan Zongjiang, but judging from his support for Duanhong, he thinks that he is also a ruthless and cunning person of the same kind, and they all say that people are divided into groups, which is true, when his grandfather was in the same dynasty as him, he didn't look down on this person, and felt that this person was not a gentleman, and he was a real wolf with ambition inside.

The Song family and the Pan family didn't deal with each other in the first place, but now that they have such a good time, they can't make a stumbling block.

"Time is running out, sixth girl, you have to hurry." Duan Xun looked at her cheeks and bit her lip, his eyes were slightly downcast, and he reminded, "Pan Zongjiang is an old fox, before he was promoted to the pavilion, he did a few years of salt patrol in Lianghuai. ”

Song Yansheng suddenly raised his eyes!

The two Huai patrol salt imperial history, the two Huai local salt administration, can be regarded as the first fat difference in Dacheng. But she didn't pay attention to this, if Pan Zongjiang was the top old boss of the two Huai merchants, wouldn't the big salt merchants entrenched in Yangzhou City have to sell him some face? ! If that's the case, isn't it difficult for Uncle Song Zhi to move there? There are still so many displaced people in the city today......

Song Yansheng couldn't sit still, and now that the sun was just right, she got up in a hurry, but she tripped over her skirt. Duan Xun knew that she understood, Feng's eyes were deep, and he held her hand.

Hengbo saw that his girl's face had changed drastically, and he also stretched out his hand. His fingers retracted, and he tapped lightly on the desk, his head tilted slightly, his jawline smooth and graceful, and his face as calm as promised. He watched the sixth girl gasp twice, picked up the teacup and took a big sip, she frowned and said hatefully, "I really don't believe that everyone can listen to him." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

This girl didn't drink two sips of tea, but a casserole of fish soup solved a lot, and then disappeared in a puff of smoke. Yiyun only had a poor fish skull left in the pot of fish soup in his heart, and his master stretched out his chopsticks, and with a slight force, the stewed white eyeballs were picked out by him.

"This girl, running so fast, hasn't said a few words yet."

Haven't said a few words yet? Yiyun was shocked, there were words in these words, the amount of information was huge enough, and it was a shame that the six girls could react.

Duan Xun seemed to feel something, glanced over, but didn't say anything, only nodded and praised, "Good check, hard work." ”

Jing Yun and Yi Yun didn't know what he was thinking, they just watched him take out the fish eye, and the chopsticks moved, and they were gently put into the dishes opposite, which was the set used by Song Yansheng just now. Then I saw him get up, walked over with a teacup, and ordered in a low voice, "Let's go, it's not early, go to Lin'an." ”

Yiyun: "Advertise, if you like someone, give her fish eyes - my Royal Highness's special confession method!" ”

Ah Hao: ......

Duan Xun: ......
