Of course, in the eyes of the Wen family, this matter naturally has nothing to do with "Wen Zhenzhen". Even if she smelled it, she didn't seem to have any part in it. So when he had breakfast today, he told Wen Zhen very calmly that the Wen family attached great importance to the selection of female officials this time, and in order to ensure justice, they invited the elders of the family, the local gentry, and even people from the palace.

In fact, before Wen Zhen arrived, he had already gone through a round of competition, the main content of that round was the white case, and today's is the main event, the red case, frying, steaming and cooking can be had, no restriction on materials, and this time the arrangement is relatively fresh, open-air, held in the garden between the front yard and the back yard. It is said that the place is large, so it can accommodate many guests without interfering with each other.

Wen Zhen brought a plate of peanuts, golden red and shiny, very crispy, the old man sent them to his mouth one by one, shouting that good peanuts should be used as wine, and immediately climbed back to take the wine again. While he was getting the wine, Wen Zhen planned to get another dish. Today, there are very few ingredients in the kitchen for some reason.

It is estimated that it is the handiwork of the person, for fear that if she goes to the place of the competition to insert a foot, she simply does not give her the ingredients, and it is difficult for the clever woman to cook without rice.

Wen Zhen looked outside, and there were a few more sturdy women at the door, looking into the room with burning eyes.

Wen Zhen hadn't arrived at the door yet, but he was stopped by those women, and one of them said coldly: "Really girl, there is something important in the house today." Please don't move around. ”

"That's fine," Wen Zhen said, "Then I need some ingredients, please ask my sister-in-law to go to the front yard to help me get some." ”

"There is a big feast in the house today, and the ingredients are all supplied there, and we can't get them when we go." The woman said coldly, "Please also ask the real girl to be more respectful, you have to understand that you are not a person on the brand name, and do not indiscriminately instruct, so as not to harm others." ”

"You're going to have a cooking competition, right?" Wen Zhen smiled, "As for being so stingy? I'm also a member of the Wen family, I don't say I participated, and I can't go and see it? ”

"The real girl is telling a joke, isn't she?" The woman's slender eyes could barely contain the contempt that overflowed, "What are you going to do there if you don't know how to cook?" What did you knock over with your hands and feet, the real girl and noble person are fine, but it is us poor people who are affected. ”

She said that she was a poor person, but she looked at Wen Zhen like she was a poor person.

Wen Zhen still smiled, didn't say anything, and turned back. After walking a few steps, I heard someone behind me spitting and saying, "Sure enough, Miss Thirteen is right, it's not a worry-free one!" ”

Another person smiled and said, "It's not surprising, that family came out." That Aunt Wen San, who was a powerful character back then, was also a good cook, but later it is said that she angered the emperor, and she lost her eyes, saying that she was married, but in fact, she was kicked out of the Wen family, ha, and said that she was a member ......of the Wen family, and I don't know if our Wen family is willing to recognize it."

Someone else "booed", and the crowd stopped talking.

Wen Zhen smiled and stopped slightly.

Mrs. Wen was actually good at cooking? Was she expelled from the Wen family?

Although it is a gossip in a few words, it is also a hidden story, but this story can be seen at a glance - the old lady Wen is sad and low-married, middle-aged widowed, and lost her grandson in her old age.

couldn't get the ingredients, Wen Zhen couldn't see that he cared very much, and while casually cooking the dishes, he invited a maid, gave her a little broken silver, and asked her to find the people around Jun Moxiao, and invited Jun Moxiao to come to her for a while.

She didn't hide it, she invited it generously, and she was sure that Jun Moxiao was holding her breath now, and her curiosity was heavy, and she would definitely come.

The maid hesitated a little, but looking at the silver horn, she couldn't help but be moved after all, and took the silver and went out. After coming back after a while, he glanced at Wen Zhen from afar, and Wen Zhen knew that the matter had been done.

When the old man Wen put the bottle of wine on the table, Wen Zhen's dishes were also served. First come up with a whole piece of golden four-sided pot, fry it in oil until it is slightly crispy, and the rice grains on the edge are slightly expanded, which is lovely and transparent like citrine.

When he heard the smell, he smiled and said, "It's better to have no wine in the pot." ”

"That's it, don't eat it." Wen Zhen entered the kitchen again, smelled the old man scratching his chin, and couldn't help but look at it.

At this time, outside the gate of the small courtyard, Jun Moxiao had just approached with two maids.

Jun Moxiao looked up at the door of the small courtyard: "Xiying, what do you say she asked me to do in a good manner?" ”

"The slave maid can't think of it, in fact, the girl shouldn't pay attention to her, and really come to see it in person, in case people have bad intentions......"

"That's not it, if you come in broad daylight, a fool will play tricks." Jun Moxiao snorted coldly, "Anyway, I can't go today......"

The maid immediately said indignantly: "It's so shameless! That smell thirteen! It's okay to splash sewage on the girl, and you deliberately sent someone to apologize early in the morning to delay the girl's work. If you want me to say, the girl should throw out what she has sent. ”

Another maid said quietly: "You are always so reckless, let's send people under the fence, it's not good to turn away the master's house, right?" ”

"Quhe, you always say that you send people under the fence and send people under the fence, as if this is inferior, but look at the head of the family is more attentive to our girl than his own, or how to say it......"

"Drama Warbler!"

The alley was quiet for a moment, and the warbler lowered her head worriedly.

Qu He looked at his girl worriedly.

Jun Moxiao's face was hidden in the shadow of the courtyard wall, and she didn't see her expression, she could only see her eyebrows that were extraordinarily high, and it took a while for her to speak, but her tone was lazy, "Say, why don't you say it?" ”

The two maids were silent.

"Isn't it an illegitimate daughter? If you don't say it, naturally there are others chewing their tongues, and this morning, I heard the old mother sent by Jinchun, and she kept saying that she was not implying that I was an outsider, and I would accept it when I saw it. ”

The two maids lowered their heads even more, but Jun Moxiao sighed, "Last night, I heard that Thirteen was born after death, and I dragged the sixth girl and me into it." I'm still fine, I have the head of the family to protect me, the sixth girl is still kneeling in the ancestral hall, I was splashed with cold water last night, and I don't know if I will get sick," I thought about it, and gritted my teeth and said, "This slut did it on purpose, right?" The night that delayed me, the pot of soup I boiled was too hot and could not be used! ”

"It's not for that Wen Zhenzhen to be implicated! A country girl, lucky. The ancestors passed on the arts, and the thirteenth lady didn't calculate. ”

The two maids began to discuss, why did Wen Jinchun target Wen Zhenzhen, and why did the ancestor Wen Zhenzhen take a fancy to her as soon as she came? Is it true that cooking is good? Would you like to ask for help?

The other refuted the other party's whimsy, how could a countryman have outstanding cooking skills, saying that it was the ancestors who passed on the arts, who really saw what the ancestors passed on to her?

Jun Moxiao had been distracted, and he didn't seem to hear the discussion between the two maids, and suddenly said, "It's so fragrant!" ”

……………………………

In the small courtyard, Wen Zhen just came out of the kitchen, with a rag padding his hands, holding a steaming basin, fresh and fragrant all the way, smelling the old man's probe, his eyes lit up.

"Shrimp, yellow flowers, mushrooms, soybeans, sliced meat...... This is a good hook, thick and moderate! ”

"Get out of the way." Wen Zhen poured the slightly thick soup into the pot.

"Snort", the sound was sharp and loud, the heat suddenly rose, and a white mist came out, and he jumped back in shock, and said in a panic: "What is so loud!" ”

Wen Zhen had already dragged a bowl: "Eat it while it's hot, it's boring if it's soft." ”

Bai Wu stretched out a hand, pulled a pair of chopsticks, quickly took away a large piece of pot with shrimp slices, stuffed it into his mouth and bit it, and the creaking sound was slightly crispy.

Wen Zhen thought it was the old man, but then she heard the old man's screams as if she was killing a chicken.

"Who! Who's going to rob the biggest piece I fancie! ”

The heat dissipated, Wen Zhen looked up, and smiled: "Miss Jun? ”

Jun Moxiao ignored her, half-closed his eyes, chewed carefully, and only opened his eyes suddenly, snorted, and said with a smile: "No wonder Wen Thirteen wants to deal with you!" ”

Behind her, Qu He, the opera warbler, looked surprised.

Wen Zhen pursed his lips, "Wen Thirteen wants to deal with me, but it's not because I can cook." ”

Jun Moxiao squinted her eyes, looked at her carefully for the first time, and said, "That is, she didn't know that you could cook, just your ......skill" She suddenly sneered, picked up the dish, and pulled Wen Zhen out with her.

"Hey, what are you doing, I haven't eaten yet!" Wen Old Man waved chopsticks and caught up.

"Old Ancestor," Jun Moxiao waved his hand, "It's not enough for you to eat three dishes for breakfast?" When we win it back, we'll make you a big meal. ”

"You're going to a competition?" Smell the smell and stop.

"Ancestor, although Wen Zhenzhen grew up outside, I am an outsider and don't have the surname Wen, but Wen Liu is still your favorite great-granddaughter back then. Today, Wen Zhenzhen was secretly grounded, I was broken in the soup pot, Wen Liu was locked up in the ancestral hall, and Wen Thirteen had no competitors, and he would definitely win. She is that person, with one move, can make us like this, once we enter the palace, we will soar...... Hehe, the ancestor is stopping, so in the future, our coffin will trouble you to fight? ”

“…… What kind of good place is it in the palace, one by one to squeeze your head to enter......" I was so blocked that I rolled my eyes.

"I don't want to enter the palace, I just want to smell Jinchun and eat deflated." Jun Moxiao also rolled her eyes, "her mother, and I didn't eat her food, and I listened to her sister all kinds of hints that I was an outsider, and I wanted to be a man with my tail between my legs, ha, when I was rare!" ”

"Saying this in front of the head of the Wen family, don't you think you're too polite?"

"Former head of the house." Jun Moxiao replied even more unceremoniously.

Wen Old Man angrily kicked over the stool, "Let's go!" Go farther! ”

"No." Jun Moxiao waved his hand, dragging Wen Zhen's head and didn't reply, Wen Zhen picked up a small bag, Jun Moxiao glanced at it, snorted from his nose, and said, "Look, I don't know what to pretend, in fact, everything is ready." So, I don't like you, you're the same as Wen Thirteen, you're not a good thing in your bones, a dead face, a smiling tiger. ”

"But I like you." Wen Zhen smiled softly.

Jun Moxiao's answer was a sneer with even more disdain.

"It doesn't matter if you like it or not, we just have the same purpose today. I can't play the craft I do best, you lack ingredients, let's work together, how about it? Jun Moxiao suddenly frowned and said, "To be honest, in fact, even if you are excellent at cooking, we don't have much chance of winning." Because in addition to cooking skills, you also need good looks and intelligence, and a stable temperament, I heard that several internal officials have passed Wen Thirteen in private, and they are very satisfied with her. ”

"Since Wen Jinchun has already made up his mind, why do you have to find a way to eliminate competitors, even me, who has just arrived and is not a threat?"

"This is the 'advantage' that she admires the most, she has a thoughtful temperament, a careful mind, and does not let go of any hidden dangers that may cause variables, which is the first condition for a palace person to gain a foothold." Jun Moxiao said, "Hearing the thirteen is bound to win." Because her younger brother can't study, and he is afraid of hardship when he learns martial arts, the fourth room of the Wen family wants this child to be able to get grace or enter the Longxiang camp in the future, which requires someone in the palace, and Wen Shisan feels that he has an unshirkable responsibility. ”

Wen Zhen frowned when she heard this, what kind of logic is this, dare to kill you like this and make her trample on her life at will just to pave the way for her younger brother?

"Anyway, let's give it a try, even if it is to defeat her and make her stop her heart!" Jun Moxiao had already finished cheering himself up in a blink of an eye, and dragged Wen Zhen to the door, and the women hurriedly came to stop, "Two girls-"

"Smack."

The hot soup pot covered the human face with a muffled sound, drowning the woman's screams in the soup, and the soup dripped, splashing the prawns and magnolia slices on the ground, and the women on all sides screamed and scattered, and they were busy shaking their hot hands or splashed wet clothes.

"What the hell dare you stop me?" Jun Moxiao waved the bare soup pot in his hand, and the tiger swept around, and his eyes circled the faces of the surrounding women.

The women who were touched by her gaze retreated one after another—although the soup was gone, the basin was still heavy, and it was no fun to be smashed anywhere.

Jun Moxiao sneered, smashed the soup basin to the ground, and took advantage of the moment when everyone jumped to avoid the broken porcelain pieces, pulled Wen Zhen and left.

As he walked, he said, "I'm sorry for ruining your dish, by the way, what's the name of your dish?" ”

"Bomb Tianjing."

Jun Moxiao: ......
