Chapter 416: West Lake Vinegar Fish
Meng Yu didn't ask the reason, and directly agreed.
On the second day, Song Qingyi directly found Zhu Jie and said: "Today we will leave and prepare to go to Kyoto, there is a lot of disturbance during this time." ”
Listening to Song Qingyi's words, Zhu Jie was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Don't you stay longer?" Is it because of the county lord? Don't worry, I've already taught her a lesson yesterday. ”
"No, it's just that we have something to do in Kyoto this time, because we met you and only stayed here for a few more days, and now it's almost time, so it's time to go." Song Qingyi shook his head and directly interrupted Zhu Jie's words.
Looking at Song Qingyi's appearance, Zhu Jie was about to say something, but finally shut up.
"In that case, then be careful on the road." Knowing that he couldn't keep Song Qingyi and them, Zhu Jie had no choice but to say.
Song Qingyi nodded, and then went to Kyoto with Meng Yu.
There are indeed reasons for this departure, but more often than not, they still have their own tasks.
On the way, Song Qingyi was still thinking about the Lotus Kingdom, and he didn't know what the strange thing was.
"Do you think this Lotus Kingdom will really be like the Concubine Kingdom and the Ye Kingdom?" Song Qingyi asked Meng Yu directly.
She hadn't found anything about the Lotus Kingdom these days, and she was already a little uncertain.
Meng Yu stroked Song Qingyi's hair and said, "Since the predecessors have already said this, there should be, but we haven't met it yet." ”
Song Qingyi nodded in Meng Yu's arms.
On the way, when I was about to reach the capital, I passed by a small town and heard that a famous minister was going to come down to check, and the local officials began to find someone to make a lot of snacks.
Song Qingyi's eyes suddenly lit up, this was a good opportunity.
If you can get the appreciation of the minister, you will be able to learn about some things about the lotus country through the minister.
Thinking of this, Song Qingyi directly recommended herself and said that she also wanted to do her part.
Looking at Song Qingyi, a delicate woman, the local officials couldn't help but express their doubts.
"Do you really know how to cook?" Looking at Song Qingyi, the local official questioned.
"If the minister doesn't like it, you can take me accountable when the time comes." Song Qingyi said with great confidence.
For his cooking skills, Song Qingyi is very confident.
"Forget it, why don't you let her try." Someone directly proposed.
Song Qingyi looked at that person gratefully, and then waited for the person in charge to answer.
Seeing this, the local officials also directly agreed.
On the second day, when the minister arrived, the local officials prepared a lot, and many chefs prepared snacks, and Song Qingyi prepared the West Lake vinegar fish this time.
"Master Zhang is here, come and taste these are all prepared for you by the chef in our town after hearing that you are coming." The local officials hurriedly greeted the minister when he saw him.
Mr. Zhang looked at the snacks on the table and looked very satisfied. U9 eBook
"Let you break the bank." Master Zhang picked up chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat and tasted it.
Seeing Mr. Zhang's satisfied appearance, the local officials also breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's good to be able to make Master Zhang happy." Local officials also directly picked up chopsticks to pick up dishes for Mr. Zhang.
The two began to discuss things about the town, and at this moment, Master Zhang, who was still eating, couldn't help but stop his chopsticks.
Seeing this, the local official was also a little nervous, and asked cautiously, "Master Zhang, what's wrong?" Is this fish not tasty? ”
When he saw that Master Zhang stopped when he was eating this fish, he couldn't help frowning and said to the next person: "Go and call the cook who makes this fish." ”
After a while, Song Qingyi came, looked at the local official with a gloomy face and asked directly, "I don't know what the adults are looking for me?" ”
After hearing this, the local officials were about to get angry when they heard Lord Zhang speak: "Why is this fish sweet and sour?" ”
The fish he had eaten was either braised or steamed or stewed, and this was the first time he had eaten it.
"If you go back to your lordship, this is the West Lake vinegar fish, which is sweetly and sour because sugar and vinegar are added to it." Song Qingyi hurriedly explained.
Master Zhang couldn't help but eat another piece, and then nodded in praise: "It tastes good, it's the first time I've eaten this kind of fish, you have a lot of ideas." ”
The local officials were relieved to hear that Master Zhang did not blame.
In the face of Lord Zhang's praise, Song Qingyi was not proud at all, and stood next to him and said humbly: "It is an honor for the little girl to be able to like it, in fact, there is a legend about this West Lake vinegar fish." ”
Hearing Song Qingyi's words, Master Zhang couldn't help but feel a little interested: "Oh? Tell me about it? ”
"Once upon a time, there was a fisherman's family, there were two brothers in the family, and the eldest brother married a wife, and the family originally lived a very happy life, but they never thought that their family was targeted by bullies. The eldest brother was wrongfully imprisoned and died, the younger brother and the eldest brother's wife were very sad, the younger brother decided to take revenge, so he was inspired to go to Beijing to catch the exam, and when he left, the sister-in-law made West Lake vinegar fish for the younger brother. The younger brother was puzzled and asked why it was sweet and sour, and the sister-in-law said that after eating this fish, we should remember the sadness of the family after my brother's death, even if I tasted the sweetness after becoming famous in the future, I could not forget the sourness of the past. ”
Finally, my younger brother was appointed as a senior official in high school and punished the bully at that time, but when he returned home, he couldn't find his sister-in-law. The younger brother has been looking for his sister-in-law hard, and then he tasted the vinegar fish of West Lake in an inn and tasted the same as the sister-in-law's cooking, and finally found his sister-in-law. Later, the younger brother resigned from his official position and returned home with his sister-in-law to continue fishing. ”
"This is the story of this West Lake vinegar fish, and this is how the sweet and sour taste comes from." Song Qingyi told the story to the officials.
After hearing this, Mr. Zhang also had a lot of feelings in his heart, and he also admired Song Qingyi very much: "I didn't expect that there would be such a story about this West Lake vinegar fish, you did a very good job." The same is true in life, with sweetness, we can't forget the sourness of the past hardships. ”
Afterwards, Mr. Zhang basically ate the whole plate of West Lake vinegar fish, and basically didn't move the rest.
I thought that after this incident, the local officials would recommend themselves to Lord Zhang. However, the local officials only gave Song Qingyi some silver as a reward, and did not say a word about Lord Zhang.
Seeing such a result, Song Qingyi was inevitably a little sad, but he could only give up, and then went to Kyoto with Meng Yu.
After coming to Kyoto, Song Qingyi looked at the bustling Kyoto, and then said to Meng Yu: "Why don't we open a restaurant here?" ”
There are a lot of people coming and going every day to open a restaurant, so it is also of great benefit to them to collect information.
After listening to Song Qingyi's words, Meng Yu did not refuse: "As long as you like it, it's fine." ”
Meng Yu also found a good location for Song Qingyi's restaurant, and even paid for the house and named it Zuixian Building, even the decoration in it is the same as Zuixian Building.
Looking at the drunken immortal building in front of her, Song Qingyi was very satisfied, so she could be regarded as having a chain store of her own in this era.
