Chapter 133: Give Me This Girl
Hearing this question, everyone looked at Lin Xiaozhu worriedly. Duanwang is a typical smiling tiger, pretending to be filial and respectful in person, but in fact, he is full of ruthlessness. The prince was in love at that time, and he was repeatedly fooled by him, and suffered several losses. And the biggest time was when Yuan Tianye was poisoned. After that, although the prince also learned to be virtual and snake-like, the person he hated the most in his life was the person who was different from the outside.
If Lin Xiaozhu made all the vegetarian food this time, she just said that the prince was impressed, and then she went to taste the delicious vegetarian food she made, presumably the vegetarian food she made would not disappoint the prince, then this matter is the most satisfying, the prince felt her love, and the son also read her kindness. But she shouldn't have made braised pork and sauced duck in order to cater to the prince's appetite. At this time, no matter how eloquent he is, he is unable to distinguish between words, and it is difficult to justify himself. If the prince is really angry and beats her twenty boards, this is still a trivial matter. But if the prince hates her, then it will be difficult for her to stay in the villa. What's more, there is also the matter between her and her son......
"Lin Xiaozhu will definitely be able to convince his brother-in-law, don't worry." With his brother-in-law here, Tang Ningyuan, who had always been honest, approached Yuan Tianye and comforted him quietly.
Yuan Tianye smiled and shook his head. His eyes looked at the pretty figure outside, and he couldn't take his eyes off it for a long time. Is there anything more than the woman he likes has a heart for himself, gives him a huge help, helps to dissuade his father, and achieves excellent results that makes his heart shake even more? The words of consolation just now are that those old scholars who are talented can't say it, right? So why is it difficult for her to tell the truth of those two meat dishes and persuade her father not to punish but to reward? This girl's eloquence and cleverness, it's not the first time he's known! Even if it really annoys my father. Isn't there still him?
When everyone was in a hurry, they saw Xia Shan take a step forward, bowed, and was about to speak, Lin Xiaozhu's eyes were quick, and he dragged him hard, and then preemptively said: "I don't know if you can see the braised pork and sauce duck made by Xiaozhu, is there any difference between it and other braised pork and sauce duck?" ”
Everyone was stunned. What is the mystery of these two plates of meat made by Mo Feilin Xiaozhu? Yu Jiaoxi and Ma Jiaoxi, who had already withdrawn from the outside, didn't care about any trespassing, so they approached the bead curtain and stretched their necks to look in, wanting to see how the two dishes made by Lin Xiaozhu were different from those of Xia Shan and Wu Pingqiang. They're all old cooks. At a glance, you can see that the two dishes are different in color. But there was no squeak. The difference in color is still better than what the prince himself can see.
Yuan Zhibai looked at it carefully for a while, nodded and said, "Well, the two dishes you make are more colorful than the dishes made by the other two." "Turned his head to look out of the curtain." Why? ”
Xiaozhu bowed down and replied respectfully: "The two meat dishes made by Xiaozhu are actually using one thing. Not only can it make the meat fat but not greasy, but it can also treat symptoms such as headaches and heart palpitations caused by cravings, lack of activity, and obesity. This kind of thing, called red yeast rice, was brought by Steward Qin from his hometown. ”
"Oh?" Yuan Zhibai's eyes lit up when he heard this. Great surprise. It can not only make the body healthy, but also be able to eat a lot; I can make myself happy. It can also make the family not worry. Isn't this the best of both worlds, and that's what I've always looked forward to?
Yuan Tianye, as a doctor, couldn't tolerate unfounded words, and frowned and looked at Steward Qin: "There is still such a thing?" ”
Steward Qin was stunned when he heard the three words red yeast rice. Seeing Gongzi looking at him at this time, he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Gongzi, my subordinates did bring an ingredient called red yeast rice from their hometown. But I don't dare to hide it from my lord and son, in our country, this thing has always been used for dyeing, and red pastries are made during happy events. As for whether it can cure diseases, it is not clear to subordinates. ”
Yuan Tianye looked outside: "Lin Xiaozhu." Why do you say it heals? What is your basis? Could it be that you listened to your grandfather again? ”
"When my grandfather used to go out of the mountains, he met a man surnamed Li. The family likes to eat this braised pork the most. None of the family members are obese, and they are all extremely healthy. Even the elderly are no exception; And their braised pork is particularly delicious. When I inquired, it turned out that this red song was played. This is a statement that Lin Xiaozhu has already thought of, and it is consistent with the facts, but it is not what happened in this time and space.
"Well, I believe this little girl." Yuan Zhibai wished that Lin Xiaozhu could say a lot of truths, so he feasted on it. Immediately gave her great support.
After getting along for three years, Yuan Tianye also knew that Lin Xiaozhu seemed to be bold, but in fact, he was extremely calm and cautious, and he would not talk nonsense in order not to be punished, let alone speak with a conscience in order to win the first place. And this girl can always create some miracles and make the impossible possible. Therefore, although he has doubts in his mouth, he has already believed most of them in his heart. Seeing that her father was willing to believe her, she stopped talking at once.
His actions surprised Yuan Zhibai again. It's about his own health, and his son is a prudent person. If it were normal times, he would never have let go of this matter so easily, and he would have to ask Lin Xiaozhu to come up with real evidence. But at this time, he didn't even ask any more, as if he acquiesced to Lin Xiaozhu's words. This has to be thought about.
However, Yuan Zhibaiping didn't say much, he directly took the chopsticks from Yuan Quan's hand, took a piece of braised pork and put it in his mouth.
No matter how fanciful it is, you have to see how the real kung fu is.
The aroma of rice wine, the saltiness of soy sauce, the sweetness of rock sugar, and the faint sour smell of red yeast rice, after a long period of cooking, have already been immersed in the pork belly between fat and lean meat, and the meat is completely blended together, without the slightest greasy feeling. Crispy but not rotten, mellow in taste. Take a bite, together with the juice of green onion and ginger, the aroma of meat blends in the mouth again, and the mellow aroma produced instantly permeates the entire mouth, lingering for a long time, leaving a fragrance on the teeth and cheeks.
"Good, good, good!" Yuan Zhibai's admiration turned into three "good" words, "Old Yu, old Ma, no wonder you will intercede for this little girl regardless of your old face." This little girl's talent is really good. Blue is better than blue! Her braised pork, compared to what you made, tastes more than a star and a half. Come, come, come, all of you come and taste. ”
Good things, naturally everyone should share and praise together, which is called taste. Therefore, Yuan Zhibai did not hesitate at all to make this plate of braised pork just seven or eight pieces, so that Yuan Tianye, Tang Ningyuan and the three chefs all tasted a piece.
"Lin Xiaozhu, the braised pork makes such a taste because of the red yeast rice?" The most surprised was Steward Qin. He didn't expect that the red yeast rice made at home could have such an effect.
"It's not just because of the red yeast rice, it's not the same way this meat is made." Lin Xiaozhu took out a piece of paper from his arms, "This is the secret recipe for making this braised pork, dedicated to the nobles." ”
She had already thought about it. Dongpo pork is still different from ordinary braised pork, perhaps because it has no oil and has been cooked for a long time, it not only tastes better, tastes more mellow, but more importantly, it is not greasy at all. Coupled with red yeast rice, it is healthier to eat such braised pork. So after thinking about it for a long time, I decided to use this dish to participate in the competition. This can be regarded as a way for her to repay Yuan Tianye. With Yuan Tianye's cleverness, he would not be unaware of her loss. Let him owe her a favor, maybe he will need it sometime. Besides, maybe as soon as the nobleman is happy, maybe he will give her a big reward. Yuan Tianye promised her not to stop others from giving her a reward.
Yuan Quan came out of it, took the secret recipe, went in and handed it to Yuan Zhibai. Yuan Zhibai is a gourmet, although he never cooks, he also knows how to make braised pork. The secret recipe of this Dongpo meat is not ordinary at a glance. After he looked at it carefully, he carefully folded it into his bosom, and shouted in a very good mood: "The bounty is five taels." ”
"Master appreciates Lin Xiaozhu and five taels of gold." Yuan Quan shouted loudly. took out five taels of gold from his arms, took out the bead curtain and gave it to Lin Xiaozhu, and he was extremely glad that he was prepared. He originally thought that today was the day of the competition, maybe the dishes made by those apprentices were good, and the prince would call for a reward when he was happy, so he carried some silver and gold ingots in his arms. I didn't expect it to be used at this time.
Five taels of gold, which is equivalent to fifty taels of silver. Although compared with the price of the old man's recipe for five hundred taels as soon as he made a move, it is still far behind. But he originally planned to sell favors to Yuan Tianye, and fifty taels of silver was considered an extra income, which made Lin Xiaozhu very surprised, and sincerely saluted at the bead curtain and thanked him: "Thank you for your reward." ”
Yuan Zhibai can't control his mouth, but who doesn't want to live a long and healthy life? So thinking that he could take care of both, today's harvest was quite fruitful, his mood was good for a while, and he turned to Yuan Tianye and said, "I'm going to ask you for this girl to go back to be a cook, how are you doing?" ”
"That's not going to work!" Yuan Tianye didn't think about it, and these words rushed out of his mouth. After finishing speaking, he was stunned. Fortunately, he reacted quickly, and soon found an excuse, and said to Yuan Zhibai jokingly: "That girl, the most ignorant of the rules, acting recklessly, you see that she talked and did things just now, and almost didn't let you go out to play the twenty boards." The wife of the family is the most important rule, if this girl goes to the house, she has to fight twice a day, and she will be resold in less than two months, but it is a pity that I spent three years training her, and her cooking skills are also good. Actually, you don't have to be her. With that method of making braised pork, you can just find a chef to do it. ”
After saying that, he turned his head again and glanced outside. Although he couldn't see the inside from the outside, it was useless for him to look at him, but Lin Xiaozhu had a good understanding of him, and he should be able to understand his embarrassment, and he would definitely take the initiative to say that she was willing to stay in the villa and not go with the nobles, right?
