Chapter 11: The Deceased
Sheng Jinyue, as the concubine of Huainan Palace, was the most favored in the mansion and grew up with everyone. A group of sisters lowered their eyebrows in front of her.
Xie Yunxi usually talks to her in every possible way.
I never thought that my sweet-mouthed cousin would dare to say such about her behind her back!
It's okay to be arrogant and rude.
The four words of mediocre appearance hit her sore spot.
There are six sisters in the Huainan Palace, and all of them are better than her! She usually has a disdainful face, but she is actually very concerned in her heart.
Sheng Jinyue snorted coldly and glared.
Xie Yunxi was angry and anxious, blushing and arguing: "Cousin Jinyue, don't listen to her nonsense. I've never said that about you behind my back! It was she who deliberately instigated, don't believe it! ”
Then he glared at Xie Mingxi angrily: "Xie Mingxi! If you chew your tongue again, I won't be able to spare you! ”
Xie Mingxi was as good as a stream, and quickly responded: "Yes, yes, yes, I won't say it." It's that you complained before that Cousin Jinyue relied on her status as the concubine of the palace to see no one in her eyes, and I didn't say a word. ”
Xie Yunxi: "......"
Sheng Jinyue's face became more and more ugly, with a tense face, she turned around and returned to the carriage.
Xie Yunxi was full of grievances, and he was so frightened that he vomited blood. glared at Xie Mingxi, who looked innocent indignantly.
Xie Mingxi reminded with a smile: "Cousin Jinyue has already gotten into the carriage. Second sister, why don't you hurry up and follow? ”
Sheng Jinyue lost her temper, but the six relatives didn't recognize it! In a fit of anger, it's not impossible to leave her here and go home alone! Don't say it's embarrassing, it's really suspicious, and it's really worth it!
Xie Yunxi weighed it slightly, and then made up his mind to chase after him.
Before leaving, he threw down a sentence: "You wait for me!" ”
You wait for me!
Very familiar words!
For decades, one by one, enemies and opponents fell at her feet. When you are angry and desperate, you will always shout like this. "One day I will make you regret it" and "I won't let you go if I am a ghost", she doesn't know how many times she has heard.
Hehe!
I'll wait!
And how?
Xie Mingxi raised the corners of his lips and said slowly: "Congyu, Fuyu, follow me into Dingxiang Building." ”
……
A few fluttering words, Sheng Jinyue was so angry that she left in a rage, and Xie Mingxi was even more disgraced. I don't know how much it takes to coax Sheng Jinyue to dissipate his anger.
Miss is amazing!
Congyu and Fuyu looked at their master with reverence, then straightened their waists and entered the Dingxiang Building with a majestic spirit.
The third floor is dedicated to female guests, welcoming young women in their twenties. Dressed simply and cleanly, with a smiling face and a good mouth.
"The girl came by coincidence, and there happened to be a private room left."
As he spoke, he quickly looked at Xie Mingxi.
Dingxiang Building is the most famous restaurant in the capital, and the third floor comes and goes every day with noble women. The young woman is also quite knowledgeable. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
At such a young age, he was born with such a good appearance!
When I grow up in the future, I don't know how beautiful it is!
After entering the private room, Xie Mingxi's eyes swept away, and it was indeed clean and elegant.
A good pear blossom wood round table is enough to seat eight people. After Xie Mingxi sat down, he casually ordered: "Let all the cooks make a special dish." ”
There are ten cooks in Dingxiang Building, and each person has a specialty dish, which is ten dishes.
Although the request was strange, the young woman did not hesitate, and immediately responded with a smile: "Please wait a moment, girl." ”
After exiting for a moment, he brought fresh and dried fruits up. One in a delicate white porcelain plate. The color is bright, and it makes people look at it and have a raw appetite.
Fuyu swallowed quietly.
Xie Mingxi's ears were sensitive, and he looked at it with a smile.
Fuyu's ears suddenly turned red, and he explained: "The slave is tall and powerful, so the amount of food is also a little larger. ”
Xie Mingxi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Is it only a little bigger?" ”
Fuyu's face turned even redder, and he replied honestly: "More than a little." ”
Congyu unceremoniously revealed her old bottom: "The slave maid eats one bowl at a time, and Fuyu always has to eat three bowls to be full." Not to mention the little maid in the inner courtyard, even the little maid in the outer courtyard can't eat like her. ”
Fuyu's face was full of shame and worried.
Will Miss think she's too good to eat?
Thirteen-year-old Fuyu is a head taller than Xie Mingxi, stout and sturdy. A slightly darkened round face, like white paper, with everything in his heart on his face.
Xie Mingxi pursed her lips and smiled: "Don't worry. I, the master, will never be able to support you, just take care of it and eat it. ”
Fuyu breathed a sigh of relief and grinned, "Thank you, Miss." ”
……
The young woman running the hall had a numb mouth, and her movements were even more neat. The hot dish was quickly served: "There is also a fish soup, which is quite time-consuming, and it takes half an hour to wait." ”
The aroma is full of appetite.
From Yu Fuyu quietly swallowed saliva together.
The delicacies that made the two little maids salivate, in Xie Mingxi's eyes, did not have much outstanding. Rinse your mouth with a sip of warm water, take a sip and frown slightly.
On the second plate, I also had a little bite.
Then the third set and the fourth set......
In all fairness, the cooks in Dingxiang Building are quite good at cooking.
It's just that in his previous life, Xie Mingxi was the imperial concubine, and there was a small kitchen in Qionghua Palace, and several of the top imperial chefs in the palace were selected to serve. The mouth has long been raised to the extreme. Waiting for idle dishes, I really can't get into the mouth.
After tasting the nine plates of dishes, a trace of disappointment flashed in Xie Mingxi's eyes, and he put aside his chopsticks: "Congyu, Fuyu, these dishes are all rewarded to you." ”
The two little maids were both surprised and delighted, and they were busy thanking their masters for the reward.
"Dishes are only delicious when they are served hot. I don't have to wait here for the time being, you eat first. Xie Mingxi is well versed in the way of control, and the two fluttering words moved Congyu to tears.
Fuyu was moved and feasted at the same time. Only one-fifth of the nine plates of dishes were eaten from Yu, and the rest were all swept away by Fuyu.
Xie Mingxi: "......"
Sure enough, the amount of food is amazing!
……
After waiting for a long time, the young woman who ran the hall finally brought the fish soup, and apologized apologetically: "I'm sorry, I let the girl wait for a long time." Chef Ye has the most customers who order Chef Ye to cook every day, so he has to be slower. ”
The round-bellied white casserole with the fish soup was placed firmly on the table, and when the lid was lifted, a burst of fragrance quietly overflowed.
Xie Mingxi's nose moved slightly, and his eyes lit up.
Congyu hurriedly put a bowl in front of Xie Mingxi: "Miss, you have eaten very little in the past three days. Eat more today. ”
She wants to be full, too!
You have to be able to eat it!
Xie Mingxi scooped a spoonful of fish soup and put it in his mouth.
Sweet and tender, melts in your mouth. There is no trace of excess flavor, and the deliciousness and sweetness of the fish overflow the mouth.
Xie Mingxi's eyes became brighter and brighter, the corners of his lips curled, and he ate one bite after another.
From the jade to the jade are all happy. Finally, there is a dish that can enter the mouth of the lady!
After eating two bowls of fish soup in a row, Xie Mingxi put down the bowl and ordered with a smile: "Invite this Chef Ye to meet him." ”
If you are satisfied with your meal, it is common to give rewards. The young woman replied with a busy smile.
"How much silver does the young lady want to give?" Congyu asked in a low voice: "The slave maid specially paid two silver tickets of fifty taels from the account office today, and also brought a few taels of broken silver. ”
Originally, I was going to buy fat powder flowers and the like, but I didn't expect it to come in handy now.
Xie Mingxi glanced at Congyu with approval: "Next time I go out of the house, I will pay five hundred taels." ”
Congyu: "......"
……
After a cup of tea.
A fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl appeared in front of her.
The girl was dressed in a cyan Luo skirt and had a fair complexion. The head was full of green silk and braided into a thick braid, which hung down to the chest. A pair of eyes are large and smart, and the eyes are quite bright, pretty and lovely.
Xie Mingxi was a little surprised.
To be able to make such a delicious fish soup is a superb cooking. She originally thought that she was at least a woman who had been immersed in the kitchen for more than ten years. I didn't expect it to be such a young and beautiful girl.
As everyone knows, the girl is also amazed by Xie Mingxi's young beauty in her heart.
"You're Chef Ye?" Xie Mingxi asked with a smile.
The girl in Tsing Yi deserved to be crisp and neat: "Yes." I've been walking with a kitchen knife in my hand since I walked. It took ten years of study to become a teacher. I have been in Dingxiang Building for a year, and I am the best chef in Dingxiang Building. ”
There was a hint of pride in his tone.
People with real talent and real learning always have the qualifications to be proud!
Xie Mingxi's gaze swept over the girl's face, and his heart moved slightly.
She has an excellent memory, and the people she has met can remember even after many years.
In his previous life, he lived for eighty years, and he did not know how many people he saw in his life. The face in front of me is vaguely familiar. It seems that in the distant past, I have seen such a face......
Wait a minute!
Surname Ye?
A name quickly flashed in Xie Mingxi's mind: "Ye Qiuniang!" ”
The girl in Tsing Yi was startled, and her eyes suddenly became a little more vigilant: "Why does the girl know my maiden name?" ”
