Hua Manxi followed his subordinates to the kitchen of the Qin Mansion, and began to select ingredients to prepare for the barbecue.

First of all, Mrs. Qin asked for mutton skewers, which selected fat and thin mutton, cut it into small pieces, and then added salt, soy sauce, pepper, cooking wine, etc. for marinating and seasoning.

Of course, in addition to mutton, she also chose squid, oysters, prawns, chicken wings, chicken feet, fish, etc., all marinated with the same seasoning.

Then, she prepared some vegetarian dishes, mushrooms, green and red peppers, leeks, Chinese cabbage, corn, eggplant, etc., and she asked her subordinates to repair some bamboo skewers and wear these vegetarian dishes into strings.

After getting the ingredients, the meat was almost marinated, and Hua Manxi also dressed the meat in strings and put it in a clean basket.

The next thing to prepare is the seasoning, which is a barbecue sauce made from oil, soy sauce, chili powder, pepper, cumin powder, and garlic and chopped green onions for grilled fish, grilled eggplant, and grilled oysters.

After the preparations were ready, Hua Manxi asked his subordinates to help move the ingredients and seasonings to the pavilion where Mrs. Qin drank tea.

The charcoal fire in the pavilion was already burning, because it was dark, Mrs. Qin ordered someone to take the lamp again, and under the hazy moonlight, this Qin Mansion had a different scene.

Hua Manxi went over with the ingredients, put out the seasoning, and began to grill the lamb skewers.

This lamb skewer should first be grilled with the moisture on the meat, then start to brush the oil, slowly grill after brushing the oil, wait until the lamb skewer makes a sizzling oil sound, then smear the soy sauce and the barbecue sauce just prepared, and then sprinkle a handful of chopped green onions after cooking.

Barbecue is to eat next to a smoky stall to have that feeling, but if you go to a sophisticated restaurant and wait for someone else to serve it, it will lose the fun.

Mrs. Qin, who was drinking tea next to her, couldn't bear it anymore when she smelled the fragrance, her eyes stared at Hua Manxi's slender ten fingers, and saw that she turned over the mutton skewers very familiarly, and skillfully brushed the oil and sauce, sprinkled green onions, and every action was so natural, not panicked at all, not stiff.

It can be seen that she is indeed a cook, this kind of kung fu cannot be pretended, if it is said that the Lin family spent more than ten years to cultivate a girl in order to calculate the Zhenguo Mansion, such a possibility is very small.

So what Mrs. Lin said just now should be true, Lin Fengxuan and the prince have a personal relationship, and today they were broken in the Zhenguo Mansion, if the two families make a fuss, not only will the two families lose face, but they will also hand over the authority of the Zhenguo Mansion to His Majesty.

This girl looks good, without the slightest stinginess of a Kyoto noblewoman, generous, and superb cooking, with her nephew who is not good at it, but it is also a good match.

Mrs. Lin already had a plan in her heart, and smiled a little more at Hua Manxi: "Wow, it's so fragrant, it's so fragrant, can you eat it?" ”

Hua Manxi had already taken the plate and handed over the grilled mutton skewers, and said casually: "This mutton skewers can be eaten, but Madame, don't eat it all at once, there are other things behind, I also got prawns, squid, oysters, eggplant, grilled fish, mushrooms, etc., these are also delicious to grill." ”

"And so much more to bake?" Mrs. Qin's eyes lit up, staring at Hua Manxi's movements, only to see that she put the oysters on top of the shell, and put some spices into them with a spoon, which made her feel even more amazing.

"Uh, this oyster is delicious to roast." Hua Manxi also smiled slightly, and continued to roast the things in his hand.

"Wow, it smells so good! It's so fragrant! Mother, what are you doing! Accompanied by a heroic female voice, before the words fell, Hua Manxi saw a neat figure flipped a few times and landed directly behind him.

"It's so fragrant! What is this! I'm going to eat it too! "The person who came was the pearl of Qin Xiang and Mrs. Qin, Qin Shengsheng.

"Eat, eat, you know what to eat all day long, and what to do in the yard! Beware of scaring guests! Didn't you see your Aunt Lu? Mrs. Qin glared at this daughter unhappily and said helplessly.

"Haha, didn't I follow you with this temperament? I think you're eating pretty good! Aunt Lu won't blame me, right? Qin Shengsheng smiled and snatched the two mutton skewers from Mrs. Qin's hand, and brought them to his lips to eat.

Where did Mrs. Lin dare to blame her, she could only smile and flatter: "Sheng Sheng is fast and fast-talking, quite like Sister Xu's style." ”

Where can Qin Shengsheng still care about dealing with her, as soon as this mutton skewer is in her mouth, she will be amazed immediately, spicy and delicious, soft, tender, and refreshing, accompanied by the aroma of roasting things over there in Huamanxi, it is simply appetizing.

"Uh, uh, it's delicious, it's delicious!" Qin Shengsheng licked her lips, it was obvious that two skewers of mutton could not satisfy her appetite at all, "I just didn't eat dinner, I starved to death, I still want to eat." ”

"Wait, Chef Hua hasn't done it yet." Madam Qin snorted in disgust.

Qin Shengsheng set his eyes on Hua Manxi at this time, suddenly felt familiar, thought for a while before remembering, and exclaimed: "Aren't you the one who boiled snakes in the competition?" ”

Hua Manxi has a better memory, recognized Qin Shengsheng, nodded and said, "Yes, thank you Miss Qin for speaking up." ”

"Hehehehe, what kind of righteous words do I have, but to tell the truth, mother, where did you invite an imperial chef back, her dishes are really delicious, I tasted her final dishes that day, it is really the best among all imperial kitchens!" Qin Shengsheng spared no effort to praise.

"Miss Qin is overrated." Hua Manxi smiled slightly, and skillfully poured garlic into the oysters, which was quiet and gentle, making Mrs. Qin feel that she had an indescribable unique temperament, which made people feel extremely reassuring and reliable.

"Yo, what's the matter, you still know this flower chef?" Mrs. Qin felt that Hua Manxi had a relationship with their Qin Mansion, so she couldn't help but be interested and asked.

Qin Shengsheng briefly said that the girls in the finals that day disliked snake meat and couldn't eat it, and insisted that Hua Manxi withdraw the dishes.

She was straight, and she didn't shy away from Mrs. Lin's presence, and said Lin Fengxuan's words as they were at that time, and Mrs. Lin's face turned blue and white for a while.

Since Lin Fengxuan was given marriage and entangled with His Royal Highness the Prince, there was still such a person in private, and Mrs. Qin listened to it, and she disliked Lin Fengxuan even more.

Mrs. Lin was feeling very embarrassed, but Hua Manxi relieved her, she put the roasted oysters on the plate with chopsticks, and said to Qin Shengsheng: "Miss Qin, the oysters are baked, be careful to burn your mouth." ”

"Wow, it's so fragrant, this thing can be eaten like this, it's the first time I've eaten it, but it's a long experience." Qin Shengsheng was very satisfied.

"Don't say you, it's the first time I've seen this way of eating, it's really novel and fun, if you use this method for going out or having a small banquet, isn't it a hundred times better than eating those fruits and melons? Isn't it fun to talk and laugh while doing your hands? Mrs. Qin said.

"It has to be accompanied by fruit wine, which is the best." Hua Manxi also interjected and echoed.

"Yes, there are still some days to celebrate birthdays, but if you hold such a unique way to celebrate your birthday, it will definitely be the first one in Kyoto." Mrs. Qin thought very proudly.

"Yes, it's really good to eat well and play well this way." Qin Shengsheng also agreed.

"What good idea did Sheng Sheng come up with, and he could eat and play well?" A low, playful voice suddenly sounded.

This voice Hua Manxi recognized that it was Shen Shao.

"Naturally, it's a particularly good idea." Qin Shengsheng was eating oysters, she stuck out her tongue when it was hot, and grimaced at Shen Shao.

"Lord Shen." Hua Manxi smiled indifferently at Shen Shao, and said hello.

Shen Shao also raised a smile, he himself is very good-looking, not inferior to Xu Heng in any way, his face is like a crown of jade, his facial features are exquisite, and his temperament is outstanding, he is worthy of a son-in-law like jade.

"No, you even know Chef Hua?" Mrs. Qin felt more mysterious, although Shen Shao was Qin Sheng's disciple, but Shen Shao's martial arts were taught by her and her younger brother Zhen Guogong, he had a cold temperament since he was a child, and he was dedicated to competing with Xu Heng, and he had never had a good color for the girl's family, that is, Princess Mingzhu was devoted to him, and he had never seen him grovel, and now he was so polite to Chef Hua?

"Naturally, didn't I go to Stone Mountain last year? At that time, it was Chef Hua who entertained me and the ninth master. Shen Shao sat down slowly and said calmly.

"Lord Shen is polite, it was Miss Wang and Master Chen who entertained Lord Shen, and I just made two meals." Hua Manxi is very modest.

"Chef Hua cooking two meals is the best hospitality, since Shen returned to Beijing, he has never met a chef with such superb cooking skills as Chef Hua, let alone eating such ingenious dishes as Chef Hua." Shen Shao praised solemnly.

Madame Qin set her eyes on Hua Manxi's movements, she was roasting a whole eggplant, and some mushrooms and cabbage, she never knew that eggplants and mushroom cabbage could also be eaten like this!

After Hua Manxi brushed the seasoning and chopped green onions, he also put the eggplant and vegetarian dishes in his hand on the plate: "Since Lord Shen misses it so much, it is better to meet by chance, hurry up and eat to your heart's content." ”

"Nature, this is nature." Shen Shao smiled slightly, picked up the chopsticks, and began to eat skewers with Qin Shengsheng.

Well, whether it is an elegant and dignified lady, or an incomparable court minister, no one can escape the charm of skewers, a few skewers, a few cups of fruit wine, it is really a fairy who will go down to the earth!

Mrs. Lin's trip was originally to let Hua Manxi leave a good impression on Mrs. Qin, so that she could say a few kind words in front of the Duke of Zhenguo and make Xu Heng agree to the matter of changing relatives, but now seeing her talking and laughing with Shen Xiang, Miss Qin and others, she is very familiar with the appearance of intimacy, and she has a little bad taste in her heart!
