Chapter 377: Shoulder to shoulder with the Heroes Building
"Why do you bring so much? It's too heavy, bring less next time, and take the food box back after I scatter it. "It's not appropriate to ask Ming Yan to wait, so Gu Chengyu asked Ming Yan to go back first.
Ming Yan smiled, "You are working hard!" Eat more, the food box is waiting for you to finish eating, and the small ones will be taken home! ”
Gu Chengyu was stunned for a moment, then smiled at him, "You go back first!" I'll just take the food box back with me. ”
Gu Chengyu understood the meaning of Ming Yan, and the family background of the three people in his room was the same, and Jiang Kenan's family background seemed to be worse, so the meals sent by the family every day were some steamed buns and seasonal vegetables, and Gu Chengyu also saw that he brought two pieces of fat meat yesterday, and he was expected to be stimulated by Gu Chengyu's daily meat fragrance.
When he came on the first day, Mingmo was afraid that he would be hungry, so he brought not only six dishes, but also a plate of pastries. Since Gu Chengyu practiced martial arts, he was prone to hunger, and the amount of food was not small. However, Gu Chengyu didn't finish eating so much, and then his family found that the three colleagues had looked at him several times.
After observing the dishes sent by their families, they found that there was meat in Liu Zonghan and Ren Ge's dishes, so Jiang Kenan actually slapped the cucumbers and ate two white-flour steamed buns.
This made Gu Chengyu a little embarrassed, Liu Zonghan's dishes were incomparable to his own. The cook in his house learned from the chef in Juxianglou, and in order to satisfy his appetite, Gu Chengyu also gave several recipes for the cook to change. The cook's craftsmanship is naturally good, and the dishes are also full of color, flavor and flavor.
In the past three days, the three people have been greedy, and Gu Chengyu is embarrassed to be stared at by them. He also mentioned the matter to Liang's mother when he returned home, saying that he would send less in the future. It's not that he didn't want to invite everyone to eat, but as time goes by, it's impossible for him to have lunch, right?
Unexpectedly, Liang's mother prepared more today than before, and it seemed that she wanted him to invite his colleagues to dinner. That's it! It's good to ask for it once, and it can improve the relationship between colleagues! This food box should be enough for four people.
Carrying the food box into the room, Ren Ge glanced at it as if unintentionally. When I found that the food box had more layers than before, I couldn't help but be secretly stunned. This Gu Chengyu is really extravagant, isn't it said that he is a farmer? How did the family become so rich?
Those who eat these delicacies from the mountains and seas every day will make them all miserable under the same roof. Their family backgrounds are average, and Jiang Kenan's family is worse than them. It's good to have meat every day, but Gu Chengyu's dishes are not comparable to those in big restaurants, and at first glance they are made by chefs with good skills from rich and noble families.
Liu Zonghan was also very curious about the Gu family's background, which seemed to be similar to the meals of those Zhong Mingding foodies. It is not that there are no families in Hanlin Temple, on the contrary, there are many family children in Hanlin Temple.
Although the imperial examination has given the poor a chance, the main force of the imperial examination is still those families. Those people have been taught by famous teachers alone since they were young, and the cost of studying is a drop in the bucket for them, and there is no shortage of contacts. Therefore, it is difficult to produce a noble son from a poor family, which is a wise saying.
Of course, Liu Zonghan was curious about why Gu Chengyu had such a sumptuous meal every day, because Gu Chengyu was a farmer before, and everyone knew about it. However, I heard that the Gu family later started a soap business and developed.
His wife also bought the soap, it is very valuable, it seems that the profit of the soap is very large! Even if you have to give some officials a share every year, you can earn a lot of silver, which can be seen from Gu Chengyu's food.
Gu Chengyu took the food box, felt very heavy, and put the food box on the table.
"Ahem! Ladies and gentlemen, I have also come to the Hanlin Academy for three days, and I have been taken care of by you for these three days. Today, let the cook cook cook a few more dishes, and please enjoy your face. My chef's skills are no worse than those chefs in restaurants, I don't know what you think? ”
"This? How embarrassing? We didn't do you any help, it was useless! Ren Ge responded first, in fact, he had already been hooked out of the gluttony in his stomach by Gu Chengyu's delicacy in the past few days.
Gu Chengyu's invitation just now made his eyes light up. However, after all, everyone has just met each other, and I am a little embarrassed.
Liu Zonghan also hurriedly refused, "This can't be done, I really didn't help you, I deserve it!" ”
Even Jiang Kenan, who has always been silent, spoke unprecedentedly, "Don't be so polite, everyone is an official in the same dynasty, and we have to help each other in the future." ”
Gu Chengyu had already opened the food box, "You don't have to be polite to me, the dishes have already been brought, if you don't eat them, it will be a waste." Come on, come on, sit down! ”
As soon as you open it, you will have a rich fragrance. On top of the layer were pork ribs, steamed tofu and honey-glazed pork belly, and the aroma made the other three swallow. Ren Ge took the lead and sat down in front of Gu Chengyu, what are you waiting for? Since it is difficult to resist kindness, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate!
This meal was enjoyed by the guests and hosts, and Gu Chengyu also took out a lot of things about the Hanlin Academy from their mouths. Including his cold treatment in the past few days, he also asked about the experiences of the three of them, and after learning that they were the same, Gu Chengyu was completely relieved.
Several people ate and drank, and after Liu Zonghan drank the last half bowl of Babao Old Duck Soup, everyone couldn't help but give Gu Chengyu a thumbs up.
"Jinyu! Your chef's skills are really good! It's not bad compared to Juxianglou. Liu Zonghan's friend invited him to Juxianglou, and the dishes of Juxianglou are needless to say, so Liu Zonghan took this place as an analogy.
"Oh? Has Lord Liu tasted the dishes of Juxianglou? I always heard that the dishes of Juxianglou are the best in the capital, but it is a pity that the dishes of that restaurant are too expensive, otherwise I must try them in the next. Ren Ge immediately asked enviously.
Gu Chengyu couldn't help but be a little speechless, it seemed that their Hanlin Academy was really a Qingshui Yamen. Except for the sons of the family and the clansmen in the family who are doing business, everyone's life is tight!
Liu Zonghan was a little proud, "That's!" The dishes are really good, na! It's similar to the taste here, but there are many types of dishes, and every now and then new dishes are introduced, which is really delicious! ”
Speaking of this, Liu Zonghan still had an aftertaste. It's too expensive, and his friends can't invite him often! The owner behind the restaurant is really going to make a profit. Juxianglou has been famous in the capital for three years, and many businessmen from other places have come to the capital and go to Juxianglou.
"Didn't you say that when you come to the capital, you don't live in the Qunying Building and don't eat the Juxiang Building, that is, you haven't been to the capital? The business of Juxianglou is so good, it can show that its dishes are delicious! ”
Gu Chengyu didn't know that his Juxianglou was so famous in the capital, and he could stand side by side with Qunyinglou? This really surprised him!
After eating and drinking, Gu Chengyu and the others cleaned up the table. Gu Chengyu was still very idle, holding this historical record, Gu Chengyu seriously began to look for typos.
