Chapter Forty-Eight: The Former Master of the Tiger Son
Xia Li got up and gave him a big smile and said, "Yes, thanks to Liu Gongzi, he likes to eat the dishes made by the little woman." ”
Liu Changzhao put away the big folding fan and said, "Little girl, do it well, be careful." My cousin's mouth is very greedy, he is happy to eat, not only will he reward you, but he will not look for the master's ballast again. ”
Xia Li couldn't refuse these two reasons, smiled with crooked eyebrows, and said, "Okay, I'll do my best." "Secretly, this kid is quite sincere.
Liu Changzhao just didn't have anything to say, let's take a look at Xia Li. Seeing her smiling happily, he was also happy in his heart. After a few more gossips, he was embarrassed to stay longer and took his leave.
As soon as he went upstairs, Xia was led by Xiao Er, she smiled and stretched her eyebrows, and when she saw that the matter was done.
Xia Li asked, "It's done?" ”
Xia smiled and nodded.
Xia Li put his arm around her and smiled, "Congratulations to my mother, and congratulations to me, our family finally has a man with a top door." ”
Listening to Xia's words, it cost one or two silver to go to the household registration, and they invited the fourth master's family to come to the house for dinner on the tenth day of the new year, and they all agreed. If you have a son, you have to invite relatives and friends to recognize your relatives.
At noon, Xia Shan came to ask Xia to leave the kitchen to cook, and brought a slightly chubby middle-aged man.
Xia Shan smiled, "This is Uncle Xiang, who is in charge of the general's kitchen. ”
Xia Li smiled and said hello.
When he entered the kitchen, Shopkeeper He only led one cook inside, and the other cooks left, and the pork belly had been cut into half a palm-sized slice.
To make this dish, you must pay attention to the heat, duck blood is not delicious when boiled for a long time, especially pork belly, it must be cooked, but also to maintain its crispness and deliciousness.
Xia Li explained while doing it, and it was done in two quarters of an hour, and it was put into a blue and white porcelain soup pot with a white background. Finally, according to Lord Ye's acceptance of spicy, put an appropriate amount of chili pepper and Sichuan pepper into the hot oil, and then pour the oil on the blood in the basin.
The blood soup is red and bright, the blood pieces are dark red, the pork belly is slightly rolled, and the fresh fragrance enters the nose, which makes you particularly appetizing at a glance.
Uncle Xiang sniffed and smiled, "The color and flavor are good, and it smells delicious." He asked Xia Lidao again, "Little lady Xia will bring it to our uncle?" ”
Xia Shi on the side hurriedly stopped, "She has always been timid, don't bump into adults." ”
Xia Li shook his head and said fearfully, "I don't dare." ”
Xia Shan smiled apologetically, "Country kid, timid. ”
Uncle Xiang listened, smiled and took the porcelain basin to a box on the second floor. This kind of good thing of showing his face, how can he not have Shopkeeper He and Xia Shan? The two of them also followed closely behind Master Xiang. Shopkeeper He was even more happy in his heart, and his master actually came.
A box in the southwest corner of the second floor, twice the size of the other boxes, with red lacquered wood floors, mahogany tables and chairs, calligraphy and paintings hanging around, and a few pots of ice, the dense branches and leaves outside the window cover the light and heat of the sun, and the inside of the house is much cooler than the outside.
There were three men sitting in front of the table, and under the table was a Yanshan wolf dog that looked very similar to Dangdang.
One of those three was Liu Changzhao. As soon as he entered Tongning County, from yesterday to today, he tried his best to reduce his presence in front of his cousin. This is the place where he is sad, losing his cousin's beloved and useful tiger. He was afraid that his cousin would see things and think of the dog, and beat him again, and he was even more afraid of driving him back to the capital.
He ate in silence and listened to the conversation between his uncle and cousin.
The older man was in his thirties, with a short beard, a gray satin jacket, and a black hood. It was Zeng Lin Zeng, who was then the deputy envoy of the Xiangjiang Provincial Department of Punishment and Rubbing, and he happened to be on business in Tongning County for the past two days.
The other man looked a little like Liu Changzhao, wearing a moon-white embroidered round-necked robe and a crown of eight treasure beads. Long and jade, cold and handsome, about twenty years old, it is the former owner of Huzi, the young general Ye Feng who was the capital at the time.
Zeng Lin put down his chopsticks and looked around, and the people who served them all retreated with interest. He lowered his voice and asked, "Does that stuff really exist?" Just because I lost the dog named Huzi, I can't find it? ”
Ye Feng's black eyes were immediately filled with coldness, his left hand was clenched into a fist, and he slammed it on the table, and a few drops of wine in the wine cup overflowed.
Liu Changzhao was so frightened that he leaned towards Lord Zeng, and his head was almost lowered into the bowl.
Ye Feng pursed his thin lips before saying, "There must be." After the subversion of the previous dynasty, those remnants disguised as bandits have been entrenched in the depths of Huaxiang Mountain, and I heard that in the past hundred years, they have dug many mountains and found nothing. According to reliable information, the king of the southwest has also been in frequent contact with bandits in the mountains over the years, and he should have heard about the rumor......" and gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle has never seen a tiger, it is really extremely intelligent, and its sense of smell is extremely sensitive, it is the smell of a few months ago, it remembers it, and it can smell it...... It can do many things that we humans can't...... Losing it, we lost a lot. ”
As soon as he said Huzi, his heart began to bleed again, his face turned pale, and his breathing became short. Huzi's goodness is not only what he said, Huzi's many actions made him feel familiar, and it was Huzi who gave him the idea of forming a dog team......
Liu Changzhao couldn't sit still anymore, so he jumped up in fright and stood behind Zeng Lin with his head down.
Zeng Lin coughed twice embarrassed, and said, "I also blame those two evil obstacles in my family, if it weren't for their instigation, Changzhao wouldn't have brought Huzi to Tongning County and let it get lost...... Alas! ”
Ye Feng asked again, "Has that case been solved?" ”
Zeng Lin shook his head and said, "No, several people involved in the case are dead." If you can find the dirt, you may be able to give the family of the sufferer an explanation......" and said, "You can train tigers, and you should also be able to train other dogs to be smart." You don't need to be in a hurry, just train again. ”
Ye Feng shook his head and said, "Dogs, like people, also have wisdom roots, and the degree of wisdom and foolishness is different. At present, I have more than 30 Rong dogs, including a few Yanshan wolf dogs and a few fan dogs. I used the same training method, but they couldn't match the hundredth-two......-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred- Alas! He said to himself, "Although the dogs of this dog team are far from being as good as Huzi, they can still be used to fight bandits." ”
Zeng Lin raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Rong dog? It's a peculiar name. ”
Ye Feng said, "Dogs can not only hunt and guard, but also have many uses. For example, catch criminals, find dirt, and fight enemies......" looked at the dog under the table again, and said, "Ermao's sense of smell is currently the best among the Rong dogs, see if it can help the uncle." ”
Zeng Lin said with a smile, "If the dog really has this kind of ability, I will also recommend that we raise one in the yamen in the future." ”
Ye Feng said again, "The matter of our desire to use Rong dogs to fight bandits is still in the secret stage, and it is a military secret, so please ask my uncle to keep it secret on our behalf." ”
Zeng Lin smiled, "This is nature. ”
Ye Feng and Zeng Lin were whispering, and they heard the shouts of the soldiers outside the door, "Uncle, Master Xiang and Shopkeeper He are here." ”
Master Xiang brought the small basin to the table and said with a smile, "Master Zeng, uncle, young master, please." ”
