"It's time so soon?" , Looking at the back of Sikong Xiao walking towards the door, Ye Huang turned his head to look at Sikong Yue again, with an expression on his face that he wanted to continue playing with them.

"It looks a little pitiful...", Hua Mian didn't look over, and silently thought in his heart, Your Highness, don't look at me, I can't help you.

Different from Hua Mian's reaction, Sikong Yue said: "Huang'er, let's learn swordsmanship with your Uncle Xiao, and I'll accompany you when I look back."

Listening to Sikong Yue's words, Ye Huang's eyes instantly widened: "Really? Not to bluff me? said that the fourth aunt was not allowed to regret it when the time came."

With Sikong Yue's promise, Ye Huang suddenly became happy, chased out with a sword, and Hua Mian beckoned Xiao Cui to clean up the dishes and return to the kitchen.

Jokes are jokes, thinking that Sikong Yue wants to stay alone in the Hejing Palace at the New Year's banquet, Hua Mian is not a good feeling in her heart, what should she prepare for her when she eats alone, but she still has to make the dishes for the New Year's banquet, so she can only make the dishes here in advance, and no matter how she keeps it warm, it will be cold when she eats.

Leave the processed ingredients for Xiao Cui to make? Hua Mian's brain made up for it, forget it or not, let Xiaocui do it, the fourth miss will be too pitiful.

Pack up the remaining ingredients and prepare to save them for the next meal to eat with Xiaocui, whether it is mushrooms, greens or meat such as beef and mutton, the amount of each leftover is not enough to make a dish alone.

Hua Mian rummaged around in the kitchen, and there was still a lot of seasoning left from the previous mixture, in that case... Looking at the large pieces of mutton, Hua Mian had an idea.

"Xiao Cui, go and call Xiao Jin to move the table to the stove, bring a few more dishes, and then bring the jars of sauce I made before on the shelf, by the way, go to the porcelain vases on the table in my room and help me get them later."

Hua Mian arranged work for Xiao Cui in his mouth, but the work under his hands did not stop at all, the hands and feet were quick to chop vegetables and cut hands, the beef and mutton were extremely fresh, cut into thin strips of a finger length and neatly put into the plate, and the chicken was cut into thin slices, rolled into small rolls, and swung in circles in a large disc, like a big meal of sunflowers.

The two black fish in the big wooden barrel that were originally planned to be used for stewing soup suddenly became active at this time, tossing up and down, making Hua Mian notice their existence.

Originally, I thought it was just for stew, so I didn't choose those fat and big black fish, but chose these two fish that looked no more than half the thickness of my forearm.

"Black fish, this is a delicious thing", Hua Mian reached out and took the fish out of the bucket, washed and cut it into wide fish segments and stacked them in a bowl, and then instructed Xiao Cui to cut and stack all kinds of vegetable mushrooms.

"Sister Huamian, what are we going to do here?" , Xiao Cui was a little curious, these ingredients were all processed, and she didn't see Hua Mian go to the hot pot, Xiao Cui couldn't see what she was going to do.

Not only are there no tools used to prepare the dishes, but even the fire on the stove is only concentrated in the center, and the stove is not a pot, but an iron frame used to make barbecues.

"Sister Huamian, the fire in the house is already very hot, do we still need to warm the baby?" , Xiao Cui saw a pot of pebbles next to the iron frame and asked.

Hua Mian picked up a few pebbles one by one with a long bamboo tong, lined them up on the iron frame to bake, and replied: "These are not the stones that are used to warm the baby, today's stones are going to be used to make shabu-shabu."
