Chapter 33 Foie gras with net oil

The hosta knelt in front of Mrs. Zhao with the washing water, asked her to wash her face, and said curiously: "What is Mrs. polite to her?" It's just a county magistrate's wife, and her wife is much more noble than her. ”

Second Mrs. Zhao smiled: "Where do you know the things in the officialdom." Go to the front to take a look, see if it's gone, and invite the third young master. asked Lai Niang to make the dishes he liked to eat. ”

The hosta got up and answered, and the curtain was lifted, and a black shadow jumped in first, rushing straight to the feet of Mrs. Zhao's second wife, so frightened that Mrs. Zhao immediately leaned back, pointing in horror at the thing squatting in front of her and sticking out her tongue.

"Where did this come from, get out, get out!"

The maids had the courage to come forward and bombard the dog, but it was not afraid, but looked at the group of maids with fierce eyes, and had the posture of pounceing on them at any time.

The maids were timid after all, and they were just scaring it from the sidelines.

The dog suddenly fell to the ground, but its head was rushing out the door.

"Don't pick it up. Ma'am, get some meat for him. As he spoke, Zhao Xihou stepped in and rushed forward to say hello to Mrs. Zhao.

Second Mrs. Zhao didn't wait for him to kneel down, so she pulled him to sit down beside her, and looked at him carefully: "I didn't take a good look at you just now." Now let me take a closer look. But when you grow up, you will suffer here! This time, my mother will make up for you well, and if you want to eat, you can say that if you can't, you will send someone to Nanjing to buy it. ”

Zhao Xihou smiled: "Where is it so bad, I'm not good?" I heard that I have a younger sister, where is she? ”

Second Mrs. Zhao nodded and said, "At your fifth sister's, you can go back and see her." The maid hugged Brother Shou and said, "This is your brother." ”

Zhao Xihou nodded, and was about to hug Brother Shou, but the sunspot suddenly called, rubbing against his legs, biting his trouser legs and pulling them out.

Zhao Xihou had to reach out and touch its head: "I know that you are hungry, so I will immediately ask someone to serve it, how can you eat it so much?" He turned his head to Mrs. Zhao and said, "Mrs. hurry up and get some food." I had a lot of wine with my grandfather in front of me, but I haven't eaten a bite yet. I'm going to eat Uncle Wang's food, no matter what. ”

Second Mrs. Zhao scolded: "Ask Lai Niang to cook it for you, didn't you like to eat her dishes the most when you were a child?" I've already called someone to get it. Why run so far, there are many things in the kitchen today, and you can also tell people to rest for a while. ”

Zhao Xihou nodded a little reluctantly: "Grandpa said that the master will come back in a few days?" ”

"Yes, I'm afraid that your township test will be over at that time. At that time, we will have to be lively. After all, there are few nineteen-year-old people in the world. ”

Zhao Xihou sat opposite Mrs. Zhao, washed his hands, wiped his face, and just waited to eat.

Seeing him like this, Second Mrs. Zhao was busy urging people to hurry up.

Soon, Lai Niang personally brought someone in with the dishes. As soon as she saw Zhao Xihou, she immediately rushed forward and kowtowed to her: "The young master came to the old mansion, and the slave maid was boring even if he cooked." ”

Zhao Xihou smiled and asked her a few hello, tasted the food, and asked someone to soak the meat in the water.

When Mrs. Zhao saw that he was a moth, she scolded: "What are you doing?" Could it be salty? ”

Zhao Xihou shook his head and fed the meat to the sunspot with glowing eyes: "It can't eat salty." Like a hungry wolf all day long, half a pound of meat is gone. ”

Second Mrs. Zhao hurriedly held him down: "Eat it yourself, I'll call someone to feed it later, you can eat it raw." He personally sandwiched foie gras to Zhao Xihou, "Eat more foie gras, you study all day long, and you are the most wasted eye, this is the clear purpose." ”

Zhao Xihou took a bite and took the rest of the water to wash it for sunspots. He ate a little of everything, but he couldn't eat enough, and after a few bites, he asked for water to rinse his mouth.

Lai Niang saw that Zhao Xihou only ate such a little, and her heart was suddenly depressed, her years of hard work were in vain, these things were her best skills, how could it become leftovers when it came to the mouth of the third young master.

"Eat more, aren't you hungry?" Seeing that he only ate a few bites, Second Mrs. Zhao knew that these dishes would not appeal to his taste, but she also persuaded him, hoping that he could eat more.

Zhao Xi wiped his mouth and said: "This foie gras is delicious when dipped in pepper and salt." ”

Second Mrs. Zhao hurriedly called someone to fetch pepper salt, and sighed: "You said that it is not easy to ask for pepper salt." How can you eat enough of this now? I still have to read books and work hard at night. ”

Zhao Xihou added a bowl of rice, and bent over to feed the sunspots with a lot of meat. Only then did he say: "If it's not in the way, Uncle Wang sent it over with a little heart." I've been eating Uncle Wang's dishes for a few years, and I'm used to it. ”

"What are you used to? Can Chef Wang compare with Lai Niang? Everywhere he has been with us all these years, these dishes can be compared to him as a country cook? You will be an official in the future, don't always keep your eyes open, even if he knows a few dishes that are eye-catching, what can he do? ”

Zhao Xihou drank tea and said: "The dishes are for eating, and they are not for people to see." Today, Uncle Wang's Eight Immortals crossed the sea to make trouble for Arhats, which is very good, delicious and chic. ”

Second Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but feel that it was a mistake to follow Zhao Youlin's words and put her son in her hometown, and she couldn't gain any knowledge. She pondered for a moment and said, "After this township examination, whether you take the test or not, you will go with me to your master's appointment." ”

Zhao Xihou smiled and said, "What are you going to do with the master?" After being admitted, I have to prepare for the next year's entrance examination, where is that kung fu. ”

Second Mrs. Zhao patiently persuaded: "I asked you to go to broaden your horizons, and you can see who you follow on weekdays." This county is full of people, except for the county magistrate who is a jinshi, the rest are some people, what use will this be for you in the future? Learn more from your father in office, and in the future, you will be released as an official, and it will be more convenient for you. ”

Zhao Xihou suddenly felt that his mother had become extremely verbose, and all he was talking about was some official things, and he was dizzy and dizzy when he heard it. But it was not good to interrupt my mother's speech, so I had to sit there and listen to her finish speaking, and if I was really bored, I threw something to feed Kuroko.

How do you know that Second Mrs. Zhao got up endlessly, Zhao Xihou couldn't sit still, calculated the time, he stood up, and said apologetically: "My son has to study when he goes back, and grandpa has also drafted a few topics for his son to do, and my son is afraid that he will have to stay up late." ”

When Mrs. Zhao heard that he was going to study, she immediately stopped talking: "Then go back quickly." You are studying well, I'm afraid that in a few days, the sixth brother of your third uncle's family will also come, and you must fight for your mother when the time comes. He entered school at the age of thirteen, and your third aunt did not prevaricate your mother. ”

Zhao Xihou smiled, bowed to Second Mrs. Zhao, and beckoned Heizi to go out.

Jin Ying saw a table of dishes that had not moved a few bites, and said softly: "Madam, do you want to ask Lai Niang to make some snacks to move the third young master?" ”

Before Second Mrs. Zhao could speak, Lai Niang herself opened her mouth first: "Mrs., you still call that Wang Jiuzhi to do it." I can't use this craft anymore. ”

"Are you looking at the old lady who asked him to cook? I don't feel happy anymore. ”

Lai Niang couldn't help but say: "The old lady and young master are used to eating the dishes he makes, and I have nothing to say." It's just that those people in the kitchen are too disagreeable, pulling our people to gamble. ”

Second Mrs. Zhao said lazily: "The people in the old mansion will go with them, I don't have so much energy to take care of these things." ”

Lai Niang secretly glanced at the face of Second Mrs. Zhao, and said secretly: "The old lady doesn't know what's wrong, and she refutes Mrs. Zhao for no reason." Two first dishes were served at once, and when they were spread, it would damage the prestige of his wife. ”

"You're thinking a lot for me."

Lai Niang leaned in front of me and whispered: "After all, I am in front of my wife, so I naturally think about my wife." I just can't figure out when the old lady sent a message to ask Wang Jiuzhi to cook too. ”

Second Mrs. Zhao stopped shaking her fan and looked around at the people in the room: "Go down!" The golden warbler went outside to keep guard, and no one was allowed to come in. ”

Jin Ying hurriedly led someone down, closed the door, and guarded the steps outside. I just doubted that Lai Niang was going to say something to Mrs., but Mrs. suddenly changed her eyes.

Second Mrs. Zhao pointed to her feet and sat down: "Say it." ”

"It was Wang Jiuzhi's girl who came to say that the old lady asked Wang Jiuzhi to cook and serve it too. But I've heard that my wife ordered her not to let her in, so how could she spread the word? Besides, the first dish is served with two dishes at once, and there is no such rule anywhere, how can the old lady not even know this after being an official outside for so many years? Since you let the surnamed Wang do it, you will order someone to tell me, and I won't have a second word, why do you still ask me to do it? ”

Lai Niang poured out the doubts in her heart, and after speaking, she glanced at the face of Second Mrs. Zhao.

"You mean what Wang Jiuzhi's girl said?"

Lai Niang hurriedly said: "Yes, she is not the person next to the old lady, and the word should be the person next to the old lady." ”

Second Mrs. Zhao suddenly smiled: "I thought it was a big deal." Isn't it just that other people's dishes compare your craftsmanship? I think that Wang Jiuzhi's cooking is better than yours. There are a few bites of food on this table, and I think your skills are not as good as before. ”

Lai Niang didn't expect Mrs. Zhao to talk to her first, but she felt that she had rubbed the ashes of her nose, so she was not discouraged.

"Hurry up and think about it, what to do for San'er at night. He has to read all these days, and you serve carefully. ”

When Lai Niang heard the latter words, she was immediately overjoyed, and bowed again and again: "Thank you for your grace." I must show my housekeeping skills and serve the third young master. You are waiting for the third young master to earn the phoenix crown for you. ”

"Alright, let's go down!"

Lai Niang retreated happily, and when she went out, she met Jin Ying, and said with a smile: "What do you want to eat today?" There's still fresh shrimp in the kitchen, and I ordered someone to send it? ”

Jin Ying looked at the flowering Lai Niang on her face and said no. Jin Yan and several maids also shook their heads, but only Jade Hairpin interjected: "We were about to ask Wang Jiuzhi to cook and send it over, but the eldest lady's craftsmanship was compared." ”

Lai Niang suddenly smiled.

Jin Ying hurriedly asked people to take the hosta down, and said with a smile: "The third young master is afraid that it will be hot, and he hasn't eaten much, and the lady of the table must be rewarded to us." I want to drink some porridge, and I ask my aunt to ask someone to bring it later. ”

Lai Niang smiled at this time: "When the girl said this, I also remembered it, and I also sent some to the third young master when I went back, I was confused, and I still got these greasy things on such a hot day, no wonder the third young master didn't like it." Thanks to the girl for reminding me. ”
