"Okay, I'm going to cook, make a big meal!" Hua Manxi immediately nodded again and again, "It's just that we went home for a few days, and there were no ingredients at home, so we had to go to Miss Wang's house to borrow some." ”

"What to borrow! If it weren't for you, I would be in prison right now, waiting for my dad to ransom me! Wang Shishi glanced at her, "What do you want, I'll send someone to get it." ”

Hua Manxi glanced at the people in the house, there were uncle's family, her, her mother, Xu Gongzi, and Lord Chen with a few subordinates, Wang Shishi, Li Yuehui, who had been crying and crying, with two guards, and there were almost twenty people, and they had to cook two tables of dishes.

"There are so many people, it's troublesome to cook, it's better to barbecue, roast rabbit, roast fish, roast suckling pig, barbecue steam, and then cook a pot of fire sugar water to eat together." Hua Manxi thought of an idea, so he made a bold list and asked Wang Shishi to hand it over to his subordinates to get the ingredients.

When the ingredients came, the eldest aunt and Hua Lanxiang began to knead the dough to make steamed buns, they were no better than Wang Shishi and Chen Xiuli, they were croppers, and they always had to eat some staple dishes to be full, so they planned to steam some white flour steamed buns.

And Hua Manxi instructed Xiao Yezi and Da Yang to use a big iron pot to burn charcoal, and the barbecue stove she drew for Da Yang to make also made Xiao Song start to burn charcoal, she found mung beans, barley, red dates, lilies, lotus seeds, rock sugar, etc., and began to boil a pot of sugar water.

After she prepared the ingredients, she asked her aunt to help watch the fire, and she began to make the barbecue powder with dried chili, pepper, cumin, etc.

The ingredients needed to roast fish, roast rabbit, and roast suckling pig are all different, especially the ingredients used in roasting suckling pig are more complex.

Salt, cooking wine, soy sauce, sugar, her homemade thirteen spices, oil consumption, Zhuhou sauce and other ingredients are mixed into the ingredients of roasted suckling pig, which is salty and sweet, and the ingredients of roast rabbit are added with chili, pepper, pepper, etc., to make a spicy taste, and grilled fish is made with general barbecue sauce.

After adjusting the sauce, the subordinates of Wangfu sent the ingredients over, suckling pig and rabbit, fish were all killed, and other beef and mutton.

The eldest aunt's steamed buns have also been steamed in the pot, and Xiao Yezi came over to help skewer the meat skewers, Hua Lanxiang is to watch the fire, Hua Manxi used vinegar, maltose and other ingredients to make crispy water, first marinated the suckling pig and rabbit with their respective sauces for a while, and then put on the fork, tied the limbs, and fixed the shape with a wooden stick.

After making it, first scald the back of the suckling pig with boiling water once, so that the skin of the suckling pig is soft, brush with crispy water, and the same is true for roast rabbit.

After brushing, start to set it on the iron pan and roast it slowly over low heat, first roast the back, then slowly turn it, and the whole suckling pig and rabbit will start to roast.

This is the most wasteful effort, if the fire is too big, it will be mushy if you don't put your mind down, and in the process of baking, you have to constantly brush the oil.

And kebabs, leeks, eggplant, grilled fish, baked potato chips, grilled shrimp, these are much simpler and better, Hua Manxi is not the first time to do barbecue, Xiao Ye can be dealt with, even the breeze and light clouds can be grilled two skewers, thinking that the sauce and dipping sauce are all adjusted by Hua Manxi, as long as you pay attention to the heat when roasting, keep brushing oil, and don't bake paste.

Even Chen Xiuli and Wang Shishi were interested and roasted corn by themselves.

After Hua Manxi roasted the suckling pig and the roast rabbit, put them on the table, removed the fork, and then took a knife and chopped the pot.

The suckling pig is roasted, the color is very beautiful, the crispy and clear skin, exudes an attractive aroma, cut with a knife, the meat inside is white and tender, and there is a burst of heat.

Hua Manxi chopped the suckling pig and the rabbit into pieces, and beckoned everyone to come and eat.

The suckling pig is crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and the whole meat has a rich and salty feeling, smooth, tender and refreshing, while the roast rabbit has a heavier taste, the pot is full of red oil, and the rabbit meat is spicy and flexible, which is another taste.

A roast suckling pig was only a few catties, and the rabbit was not big, so it was quickly wiped out, and Hua Manxi turned to the barbecue grill and began to roast other things.

Chicken wings, lamb skewers, beef skewers, cabbage, leeks, potato chips, eggplant, literally everything can be grilled.

While grilling meat, while playing the cards invented by Hua Manxi, it is simply not too beautiful.

This meal was eaten until late at night, and after everyone ate a bowl of stewed soft and sweet sugar water, they went home one after another.

And Xu Jinfei and a few people naturally stayed in the original guest room.

Poor Uncle Zhao, because when he was injured, no one took care of the carriage he was in when he came, because everyone was worried about Hua Manxi and had no time to take care of him, and after a bumpy journey, the injury seemed to be more serious.

The smell of their barbecue tonight is really big, and they drilled into his nose for a while, but Hua Manxi only let him eat a few pieces of suckling pork, and then there were three big white steamed buns, and finally although there was a bowl of sugar water, it couldn't sweeten his bitter heart into bitter gourd!

Uncle Zhao lay on the bed by himself, he just wanted to cry without tears.

There was a day without danger finally passed like this, and after such a incident, everyone's thoughts of going back to Peach Blossom Village for the New Year were light, so they simply bought red paper and began to cut window flowers, and celebrated the New Year in the house in the city.

Although Hua Manxi is a good hand at cooking, he is a good hand at cutting window flowers and small leaves. Hua Manxi watched her scissors spin like a fly, but after a few seconds, the red paper was spread out, and it became a lively little fat baby.

"Wow, that's amazing, Xiao Yezi, you still have this skill! Hurry up, cut a few more! Hua Manxi was amazed, and praised Xiao Yezi non-stop.

"Of course, the little leaves are amazing, not only cutting window flowers, but also embroidering how many times better than you! Like you, a girl, you know how to cook all day long, except for cooking, you can't do anything! Hua Lanxiang said meaningfully.

"I have a specialization in the art industry, I have a specialization in the art industry, I am a cook, it is enough to be able to cook, I am not an embroiderer, what do you want to do such a good embroidery job?" Hua Manxi snorted twice and said confidently.

"Manxi, it's twenty-eight, tomorrow is the New Year, Xu Gongzi, Xu Gongzi, he doesn't need to go home to celebrate the New Year with his family? He spends the New Year with you, what does it look like? Hua Lanxiang lived a stable life for two days, and forgot Xu Jinfei's merits that day, and both horizontal and vertical felt that they were not a good match, so it was like a pimple in her heart.

"He, he won't go home, if he does, won't I follow him to Kyoto? So far away, how can you still celebrate the New Year with me? Hua Manxi said naturally.

Hua Lanxiang has been with them for so long, where did she not find out that Xu Jinfei did not treat Hua Manxi as a cook at all? She knew in her heart what was really going on, but she couldn't refute her daughter directly, so she blushed and said, "It's always okay to go back to Peach Blossom Village for the New Year, right?" He's here with you, what does it look like, it's just a friend visit on weekdays, but it's just the New Year, after all, the New Year is a big event, so that the neighbors and villagers see it, and they think that the two of you have become married! ”

"Then he goes back to Peach Blossom Village for the New Year, a few of them can't cook, and I have to go back to Peach Blossom Village with me, isn't it the same to spend the New Year with him?" Hua Manxi naturally understood what her mother meant, but she just pretended to be confused.

"You, can you have a snack, you're a girl, why don't you care about fame at all!" Hua Lanxiang was so angry with her that she pointed at her and scolded.

Hua Manxi looked like he didn't enter the capital with oil and salt, and said indifferently: "Mother, reputation is useless, reputation can't be eaten, even if it has a good reputation, will you definitely be able to marry well?" I think it's okay to marry someone not to look at reputation, not to look at family background, the most important thing is to look at him as a person, as long as he has a good character and treats me well, it's okay, everything else is empty. ”

Hua Lanxiang was so blocked by her that she couldn't say a word, and looked at her in a daze, holding her breath.

At this time, the breeze outside the door ran in and shouted: "Hua Xiaochu, the son said to take you to ride a horse!" ”

Riding a horse, Hua Manxi hasn't ridden it yet, anyway, she can't cut this window flower, so she simply put down the scissors and stood up and responded: "Okay, come right away." ”

She responded, and hurriedly said, "Xiao Yezi, I'll leave this thing to you, I'll go change into thicker clothes and play." ”

She hurried back to her room, put on a thick dress, and ran outside like a smoke, regardless of the fragrance of the orchid.

"What a woman! Don't stay! Hua Lanxiang looked at Hua Manxi's lively back, stomped her feet, and picked up her scissors as if she was angry, and cut it on a piece of red paper.

"Godmother, don't be angry, I think Sister Manxi is right, Xu Gongzi is very good. Even if she marries a man with a low threshold, that is, a crop man, she may not be as intimate as Xu Gongzi, you see Manxi following him, which of him is not thoughtful? Such a person is not a good match, so who else in this world is a good match? ”

"Okay, even you help her, don't you? Now Manxi is not his person, there is no freshness, naturally he is thoughtful everywhere, this man, he is like that, Xu Gongzi looks like this, how can he only marry Manxi alone in this life, in the future, Manxi is pregnant, old, he is not a concubine in a room and carries it into the room? Will the days of Manxi be better in the future? You young people are just shallow-eyed! I can only see this little profit in front of me, and I don't think about it in the future? Hua Lanxiang said worriedly.

Although Xiao Yezi is illiterate, he still understands the truth, and said in a low voice: "Will you be happy if you marry a low-level person?" It's not a look at people, Wang Dazhuang's portal is low enough, and he can't afford to accept concubines, but he tossed his mother-in-law to death, and sold her corpse! ”

Hua Lanxiang couldn't imagine that this little gourd-like little leaf still knew how to reason with her, but there seemed to be nothing wrong with what she said-

She was speechless for a while, and she didn't know what to say, when her eldest aunt came out and said to her: "Sister Lanxiang, that Uncle Zhao said that he was hungry and wanted to eat a few refreshing pastries, you can make some." ”
