Chapter 42 Green vegetable and tofu soup

That night, the Zhao family failed to find Zhao Xihou back after all. Early in the morning of the second day, the second wife of Zhao, who had not closed her eyes all night, sent someone out of the city to find Zhao Xihou. I want to bring Zhao Xihou back before the sixth child in the third room comes.

"Every temple in this county has turned over a poop for me."

Rong Yue, who had been following Second Mrs. Zhao's side, whispered, "Don't worry, madam. The third young master is the most particular on weekdays, and he won't go to the ordinary realm. It was rare that after the third young master said the food of Shenshan Temple, the slave maid wondered if the third young master was there? ”

"Yes, yes. Go to Kinabalu Temple. ”

Those who go out to seek it will return quickly.

"Back to Mrs., the third young master said that he would not come back, so he lived on the mountain. He also said that if he is a monk's wife, don't be sad, and Shou Ge'er will wrestle for his wife. ”

Mrs. Zhao didn't sleep well all night, her eyes were deeply sunken, her eyelids were deeply blue, and her face was yellow and waxy. As soon as she heard this, she rushed out without makeup, pointed at the little maid and said, "Tell him that if he doesn't come back, I will sell that little prostitute!" ”

The little servant responded again and again, and said embarrassedly: "Mrs. Hui, the third young master said that if you mention Miss Fang Qiang, if you have a small life, you will sell it, and remember to earn back the money you spent!" ”

I was worried that he might be used to living in the temple and whether he could eat well, but he didn't expect to put down his words and ask other people's sons to wear filial piety for themselves.

Second Mrs. Zhao's eyes were round, and her long nails were about to be buckled into the flesh: "Call someone to prepare the car!" ”

Before she could walk back to the back room to dress, someone came in again to pay her respects: "Madam, as far as the descendants of the third master's family are concerned, the sixth young master will enter the mansion in another hour." The old lady called the third young master over. ”

Second Mrs. Zhao said that she knew, first ordered her to retreat, and sent a group of people to pick up Zhao Xihou: "Go, call a dozen people, even if you rob him, you have to snatch him back for me!" ”

The little guy ran out like a flyer.

Second Mrs. Zhao looked down at the clothes on her body, and walked into the back room quickly: "Jin Ying, comb my hair." Let's go see the old lady first. ”

Old lady Zhao had already eaten breakfast under the service of Zhao Xiyun and Zhao Xixiao, and was talking to them, when she saw the second wife Zhao coming in, she looked behind her: "Where is the third grandson?" ”

Second Mrs. Zhao greeted Mrs. Zhao, handed the tea to her, and said with a smile: "I have already sent someone to call him!" ”

"Humph!" Old lady Zhao put down the teacup, lit the cane and said, "I have sent someone to call him several times, and they all said to go to you!" What about people? ”

Second Mrs. Zhao was stunned in her heart, and forced a smile: "Yes, I said that I remembered to take something, and went back to his house." ”

"Go and get someone to call him. The sixth grandson is about to arrive, so we all have to wait for him? ”

Second Mrs. Zhao responded again and again, and asked Jin Ying to hurry up and urge her. He bowed his head in embarrassment.

For a moment, two moments, no one came, and even the golden warbler who went out to call people was gone. Second Mrs. Zhao only felt that she was sweating all over, she kept wiping the thin sweat on her forehead, and said to Mrs. Zhao with a smile: "It's been a little hot these days, and the old lady should pay attention to her body." Yesterday's cold cake was used by the old lady? ”

"Humph! I have five girls and seven girls to serve you as wholeheartedly as you do. ”

Second Mrs. Zhao nodded sneeringly, and her eyes moved out of the bamboo curtain. Put the handkerchief in your hand, and your heart is like a fire, hurry, hurry. The gang of dogs directly tied San'er back.

Old lady Zhao nodded on the table: "Second wife, how long has it been here, and the people you sent out have not come back, my broken house is the Longtan Tiger's Den?" ”

"I think so...... Thinking that something was delayed, the daughter-in-law went over to take a look. ”

Old lady Zhao waved his hand angrily: "I'm old, although my eyes are dazzling, my ears are not very good." You want to hide it from me, too? The third grandson didn't come to see me the night before, and I didn't see anyone all day yesterday. Where the hell did he go? ”

"It's at home."

Old lady Zhao's old eyes suddenly filled with light, and he turned back to Zhao Xiyun and Zhao Xixiao: "You two said, where did your third brother go?" ”

Zhao Xixiao shook his head in fear, and looked at Zhao Xiyun beside him.

Zhao Xiyun already knew that the whole family was hiding from Mrs. Zhao alone, she glanced at Mrs. Zhao, who was winking at her, and shook her head.

"Five girls! You're hiding it from me now? ”

Zhao Xiyun knelt in front of Old Lady Zhao and said, "The third brother brought a few dishes to Grandpa, and went to the mountain early in the morning. ”

"Humph! Didn't he know that the sixth grandson had arrived today? Go, send someone to get him back! ”

Second Mrs. Zhao stood on the side with her hands down, and whispered, "My daughter-in-law has ordered someone to arrest him back." ”

Old Mrs. Zhao didn't pay attention to Second Mrs. Zhao, but just urged Zhao Xiyun to go quickly: "Don't go quickly." ”

Zhao Xiyun led Zhao Xixiao out of the courtyard in a hurry.

Zhao Xixiao saw that the maid was left behind, and said cautiously: "Fifth sister, third brother will not come back." ”

Zhao Xiyun took her hand and whispered, "Do you know anything?" What the hell is going on with the third brother? How did you run to the temple so well? ”

Zhao Xixiao held Zhao Xiyun's hand tightly, his face tightened, and he glanced at the mother-in-law and maid who had already followed in fear, and shook his head.

Zhao Xiyun didn't speak again, just took Zhao Xixiao's hand and walked silently.

Fourteen-year-old Zhao Xiyuan, thin and thin, wearing a straight blue cocoon silk shirt, with a straight back, a pair of eyes not squinting, walked up to the old lady Zhao, lifted the placket with both hands, knelt down on his left leg first, and then knelt on his legs, and kowtowed three heads respectfully: "Grandson Zhao Xiyuan pays a visit to my grandfather." ”

Old lady Zhao ordered someone to pick him up and told him to do it by his side, but Zhao Xiyuan repeatedly refused: "Grandfather sits quietly, and grandson stands and waits." ”

Seeing that he knew etiquette very well, Mrs. Zhao was very happy, and pointed to the second Mrs. Zhao who was standing on the side and said, "This is your second aunt," and pointed to Sister Zhao Xiyun and said: "This is the sister of your fourth uncle's family, row five, this is the sister of your second uncle's family, line seven." ”

Zhao Xiyuan saluted them together, and at the end he still stood respectfully beside Mrs. Zhao.

Second Mrs. Zhao smiled and said, "The sixth young master just came, wouldn't it be good to go and freshen up first and then come over?" It was just too hot. ”

Old lady Zhao said: "Exactly." Sixth grandson, go quickly! By the way, if you want to eat, I'll ask someone to make it. ”

Zhao Xiyuan bowed and thanked Mrs. Zhao: "My grandson wants to eat green vegetable and tofu soup." ”

"Green vegetable and tofu soup?" Old Lady Zhao couldn't help laughing, "Why do you want to eat this?" ”

"Nothing."

Old lady Zhao nodded: "Got it." Good boy, go and freshen up. ”

Zhao Xiyuan quickly freshened up and changed into a cyan cotton gown.

Old lady Zhao saw that he was dressed plainly, and his heart was even more happy: "Your father wrote to say that although your writing is good, your pen power is still a little immature. Show it to me. ”

Zhao Xiyuan took out the weekday article from his cuffs and presented it with both hands.

Seeing that he had prepared in advance, Old Lady Zhao nodded with joy. Flip through the pages of his articles. Decent floor pavilion body, stroke by stroke is extremely serious, from beginning to end the pen is the same, no slackness. At the age of fourteen, it is already good to be able to write this handwriting.

The article is not bad either. It is a good start to solve the problem, in the article, nature and man are united, loyal to the monarch, patriotic and love the people...... Even if this kind of article is not favored, no matter which examiner reads it, it will be selected. It seems that the sixth grandson is indeed more beneficial than his father in this regard.

Old lady Zhao said: "Very good." Wait a minute, I've given you a question, you've been doing it for a few days. ”

Zhao Xiyuan hurriedly replied and looked around the hall: "I heard my father say that the third brother of the second uncle's family has been studying in front of his grandfather since he was a child, and he is very knowledgeable, why don't you see the third brother?" ”

He made an appointment with his classmates, went out today, and will be back in the evening. When the time comes, you'll be able to work together again. ”

"Master Wang, someone from the Sixth Young Master's house came and said that they wanted to send a green vegetable and tofu soup over."

Zhao Yuan, who was doing the finishing work, couldn't help but say: "Didn't I just ask for green vegetable tofu soup for dinner, and I also asked for green vegetable tofu soup at noon, why do you want to eat it now?" ”

Feng Quan'er smiled: "How do I know? Eat a soup three times in a row, and he is not annoyed? ”

Wang Jiuzhi rubbed his hand, sat on the side and did not speak. It's the first time he's encountered such a thing, and he asked for the same dish three times in a row, and he really likes it, and he won't do it.

The green vegetable and tofu soup at noon is the most common method, the old tofu is fried on both sides of the golden brown, boiled in water, and the green vegetables are served.

He raised his head and said, "Feng Quan'er, you are in front of the sixth young master, how much does he eat?" ”

Feng Quan'er said: "I ate a bowl at noon and put it down, but I ate half a bowl of green vegetable and tofu soup in the evening." ”

At night, it was made by Ruixue. She asked for fresh shrimp, peeled the shell, leaving only the shrimp yellow and shrimp meat, the shrimp meat slices are good, wait for the water to boil, add the shrimp meat, and then beat the tender tofu into it, and wait for the soup to open, add the shrimp yellow, sprinkle with chopped green cabbage leaves, and put lotus root powder to thicken.

The sixth young master ate half a bowl more.

He nodded and smiled. I took a piece of lean meat and two pieces of old tofu.

Zhao Yuan approached Wang Jiuzhi: "Master Wang, what is the point of this green vegetable and tofu soup?" ”

Wang Jiu pointed out: "It's not exquisite, we will be wrong." ”

The lean meat is chopped well and seasoned.

Cut the old tofu into pieces, put it in the pot and fry it on both sides as it is golden, take it out, put the meat that has adjusted the flavor and put it in the middle of the two mouthfuls of fried old tofu, the garlic leaves are tied, put the bamboo shoots and ham slices, mix with the broth, and cook them together when they are about to open, and then put the green cabbage leaves.

Tomson Feng Quan'er stood and looked at Wang Jiuzhi's approach, and couldn't help laughing: "This is also called green vegetable and tofu soup?" ”

Wang Jiuzhi rubbed his hand and said, "Send it over." Check out this satisfaction? ”

Sure enough, it was just a meal, and Feng Quan'er, who delivered things, came back happily, showing a small silver ornament rarely: "Good creation." The sixth young master rewarded. Master Wang, the sixth young master drank all the soup and said that you did a good job. He also said that he would eat fried beans tomorrow. ”

The easiest way to make green vegetable tofu is to fry the tofu slightly, add water and then put the greens, which is the favorite of the red envelope father; As for the final luxury version, it is an upgrade of Dae Jang Geum, which is a stick.

In other words, if we can skate faster at 3,000 meters, and no matter how foul the stick is, it won't touch us, and there will be no human referees, clamoring for another game. But it doesn't matter how we win, we just won anyway~

Thank you zz for helping me upload it in the past few days when I was on a business trip~
