Chapter 42: The Past and Present of Chinese Cabbage

Ouyang Qing was immersed in his work when he suddenly heard a huge sound of glass breaking from the next room, as if something like a cup had fallen to the ground.

Ouyang Qing immediately walked out of the office and knocked on Zhong Liwei's door.

The silence in the door returned to the past, Ouyang Qing pushed the door and walked in nervously, only to see Zhong Liwei's swivel chair facing back to the door, and all the things on the table fell to the ground.

Ouyang Qing looked at the mess in surprise: "Fourth Master, what happened...... What's wrong? ”

Zhong Liwei's tone was light: "Find someone to clean it up." ”

Ouyang Qing nodded stunnedly: "Well, I'll clean it up." Ouyang Qing turned to leave.

Zhong Liwei leaned back in his chair, his eyes closed tiredly, his chest rising and falling.

The only thing I like in my heart is you!

You are the most important person in my life, and the most dearest and dearest relative in my life-

He slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the phone in his hand, and then suddenly waved his arm hard, and the phone flew out, and then lay there with broken bones.

……

There was a knock at the door, and Lannie immediately answered, "Please come in." ”

The door was pushed open, and the third sister walked in respectfully: "Miss Lan, it's time to eat." ”

Lan Ni stood in the middle of the bedroom: "The dining room is downstairs!" When I go downstairs, I don't have to go upstairs, it's troublesome. ”

The third sister immediately said, "Don't bother, Miss Lan, people have already come up." ”

As soon as the third sister finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor, and then six men carried a dining table more than three meters long, and it took ten minutes to finally enter Lanni's bedroom.

Lannie froze, what is this for? Is there going to be a state dinner?

But after one table was moved, another one was moved, and the two tables were side by side, which was even bigger than the kang in the northern countryside.

Lannie was dumbfounded: "Three...... Third sister, your family...... Don't have a smaller table? ”

The third sister was respectful: "Yes, but those tables can't fit." ”

Lan Nimeng, those can't put it down? What does that mean?

The table was placed in the center of the bedroom, and four maids walked in with a snow-white cloth, and each of them grabbed a corner of the cloth and spread it on the table with neat movements.

A manservant brought a solemn high-backed chair and placed it in the center of one end of the dining table, and the third sister bowed down and said, "Miss Lan, please take a seat!" ”

Lannie looked at the high-backed chair, and suddenly felt like she had arrived at the courthouse, and she moved her steps in a daze, and slowly walked towards the table.

A few minutes later, four well-dressed maids came in in a vertical row, each with a delicate white porcelain plate in their hands, and they placed the plate in front of Lannie in an orderly manner, and said in turn:

"This is Chunlan."

"This is Xia He."

"This is Qiu Ju."

"This is Dongmei."

Lan Ni stared at the four plates, the first of which contained a few graceful white magnolia flowers, the magnolia flowers were white and yellow, crystal clear; In the second plate are two palm-sized lotus flowers, and at the bottom of the lotus flowers are two emerald green lotus leaves, and there are a few crystal dew drops floating on the lotus leaves; On the third plate are three blooming bright yellow chrysanthemums, whose petals are slender and curly, graceful and graceful; The fourth plate contains a fiery red plum blossom, which blooms with all its might, as if it were alive and lifelike.

Lanny looked at the four plates in a daze, damn, what are they?

Chunlan, Xia He, Qiu Ju, Dong Mei, let her eat flowers for lunch? If you eat flowers for lunch, why eat them in the bedroom, go straight to the garden and eat them.

The third sister standing on the side said: "These four dishes are the small snacks carefully made by our pastry chef for Miss Lan, Chunlan, Xia Lotus, Qiu Ju and Winter Plum, which means that the flowers are rich and prosperous, and the four seasons are safe, I hope Miss Lan likes it." ”

Lan Nimeng, what is this? It's all made of noodles? Is it a snack?

Damn, the chef of the royal court!

Lan Ni stretched out her hand and gently touched the petals of the chrysanthemum, which turned out to be really made of noodles: "Third sister, your family is hospitable...... Is it all such a big show? ”

The third sister smiled slightly: "Actually, the fourth master has just returned to China, and there are no guests at home, so Miss Lan, you are the first guest of our family in a few years." ”

Lan Ni nodded stunned: "First guest, honor, honor!" But this chef is amazing! There is no problem for him to receive foreign heads of state. ”

The third sister smiled again: "This is the ordinary chef of the Zhong Mansion, and all the cooking skills are taught by the master of the Zhong family's old mansion. ”

Lan Ni was still stunned: "Amazing, amazing!" ”

At this moment four more maids entered, and the four maids put four more plates on the table.

These four plates are filled with four beautiful landscape paintings, including vast distant mountains, rolling rivers, ancient temples at the city gates, and small bridges and flowing waters.

Lan Ni looked at the landscape ink painting on the plate in a daze: "What is this called?" ”

The four maids said in turn:

"This is white mountains and black water."

"This is a white dew boat."

"This is Gusu Yebai."

"This is the white moon on an autumn night."

Lan Ni was still stunned: "Third sister, this, what are these white-character generations made of?" Why do you have the word 'white' in your name? ”

Third sister: "These dishes are all made of Chinese cabbage, so they all have the word 'white' in their names." ”

Lannie glared: "Chinese cabbage? Be...... It's all Chinese cabbage? ”

The third sister nodded: "Yes, this is all made of Chinese cabbage." ”

Lanni: "How do you do this black mountain?" ”

Third sister: "This is made by soaking cabbage leaves with cuttlefish capsules. ”

Lannie: "Where's the little orange flower?" ”

Third sister: "Soak the cabbage root in carrot juice for twenty-four hours, and then carve it with a carving knife." ”

Lannie: "Where's the little yellow flower?" Wait, don't say it, I guess - it's cornmeal! ”

Third sister: "No, all the ingredients are cabbage, this little yellow flower...... It's cabbage flowers. ”

Lannie: "It's amazing, you can make such ordinary Chinese cabbage like a work of art, they can be exhibited in the art gallery." ”

The third sister smiled slightly, and told Lan Ni about the origin of the Chinese cabbage, and at the same time told the details of the growth of these Chinese cabbages on the table.

Lan Ni looked at these four dishes and listened to the third sister's explanation of the Chinese cabbage, as if she had seen the past and present life of the Chinese cabbage.

There were forty dishes on the table, each of which was a fine product, and the third sister was just about to pick up the dishes for Lanni, but Lanni immediately said, "Don't touch, don't touch." ”

The third sister was stunned: "Miss Lan, don't you want to eat?" ”

Lan Ni rushed towards the big bed: "Eat, you must eat!" But before eating, you must take a photo of them, leave a souvenir, and then show off and send a circle of friends. ”

Faced with a table of delicacies, Lan Ni ate directly to the explosion, so that she had been walking in the corridor all afternoon to eat, she originally wanted to go upstairs, but as soon as she went up the stairs, someone immediately came out of a room and told her that where was the forbidden area of Zhongfu, no one was allowed to enter except for the fourth master.
