Chapter 367: To Eat or Not to Eat
A private room on the terrace on the second floor of the Snow House.
Hao Lian Zhai Yang held the Yueji Flower Water Xin Xuan Cake in his hand, looking at the dim sum that looked like a piece of finely carved jade.
Looking at the delicate flowers in it, I couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration.
The fragrance of this crystal jelly is not very strong, but the appearance is very tempting to people's appetite.
At least, this is true for Hao Lian Zhai Yang, who likes beautiful things.
He had already asked the guy just now, what is this thing called: "Crystal Cake".
Ye Qing gave this thing this name, mainly because it sounded better.
The draft water Shin Xuan cake is naturally accompanied by a dipping sauce, sweet and rich syrup, milky white condensed milk and beige soybean flour, just looking at it makes people feel excited.
Hao Lian Zhai Yang gently took a bite of the "Crystal Xuan Cake", and there was nothing peculiar about the slippery taste of eating cold and jelly.
But a milky aroma that he liked very much instantly burst out in his mouth, sweet and silky like the lactose that his "Abuji" (mother) made for him when he was a child.
His whole body was intoxicated, the skin was smooth and tasteful, and it bounced slightly on the wall of his mouth.
The flower on the inner layer has a slightly bitter taste, but it is full of rich floral fragrance.
This "crystal cake" is not only novel to Hao Lian Zhai Yang, who likes sweets, but also delicious.
Eating such a piece in this big summer made him feel a lot more refreshed, he nodded, and then motioned to Xiao Yuyan to ask him to have a piece too.
"I don't like to eat cold things, especially sweets!" Xiao Yuyan shook his head with a folding fan.
"Oh, if you don't eat it, then I'll eat another piece later. Xiao Yanzi, bring the jade jue (goblet) over there for this prince. ”
Sui Xiaoyanzi, who was standing next to Hao Lian Zhai Yang, immediately picked up the cup of assorted ice, and then carefully placed it in front of Hao Lian Zhai Yang, and said respectfully: "Lord Shizi, please use it slowly." ”
"Yuyan, you eat, don't just watch your cousin and me eat!" Hao Lian Zhai Yang said.
This Xiao Yuyan is the grandson of the eldest princess, and Hao Lian Zhai Yang is the sister-in-law of the eighth prince, so he is naturally his cousin.
Xiao Yuyan put the paper fan on the table and looked at the bowl of cabbage soup, this is a bowl of clear soup, the soup is so bright that you can't even see the oil star, just like white water.
But since Tianxueju dared to bring this dish, it must not be as simple as it seems on the surface.
He elegantly picked up a pair of silver chopsticks inlaid with gold and jade, took a piece of cabbage and put it in his mouth, and after chewing it gently, his beautiful eyes moved slightly.
Immediately after that, he took a gilded-edged Ruyi moire spoon, scooped a spoonful of soup and put it in his mouth, and after swallowing a mouthful of soup, his eyes lit up significantly.
Soon he took another sip, another sip, and another sip......
His repeated actions made Hao Lian Zhai Yang, who was enjoying the ice, his eyes widen instantly.
Xiao Yuyan eats slowly, which is well-known among several of their acquaintances with the children of the royal family.
He has always chewed slowly, and the soup has to be scooped up with a spoon and slowly eaten, not that he pretends, but because of habit, he has been weak and sickly since he was a child.
Later, the imperial physician in the palace prescribed him a prescription to nourish his spleen and stomach, and strictly prescribed Xiao Yuyan's eating method.
Whatever he is asked to eat must be taken in small bites and eaten slowly, not to mention that he needs to chew and swallow slowly when eating, even if he drinks soup, he must take it in his mouth first.
But Xiao Yuyan is a person who loves food very much, so what he can eat is naturally the best of the best.
He won't care about this problem of eating and drinking carefully, otherwise he will definitely not eat the second bite.
The prince of Jin was extremely surprised, and his lake-colored eyes widened slightly: "Yuyan, is the soup so delicious?" ”
Xiao Yuyan came back to her senses suddenly, put down the spoon with some embarrassment on her face, and then nodded.
Hao Lian Zhai Yang originally didn't like the clear soup and little water Rausch cabbage soup, although the small bowl containing the cabbage soup was very exquisite, but he still didn't have a good impression of the kind of cabbage that only civilians would love to eat!
But even Xiao Yuyan, who has always been picky, has drunk so many mouthfuls of soup, it must be delicious......
Or...... He ...... Taste it too?
Hao Lian Zhai Yang personally picked up the small bowl of cabbage soup, looked at the cabbage with some disgust, and then scooped out a spoonful of soup with a spoon and put it to his mouth, and hesitated for a moment before drinking it into his mouth.
He only took half a sip, and after taking a mouthful of soup in his mouth, his eyes widened suddenly, and he was reluctant to swallow it for a while.
Soon he hurriedly drank the remaining half of the soup from the spoon, and asked while smashing his mouth, "Is there anything else in this soup?" ”
He finally picked up a piece of cabbage and put it in his mouth and chewed it a few times, the crisp and tender cabbage heart filled his teeth, and then scooped a mouthful of the soup, and when he ate it with the soup, the delicious enjoyment made people sigh.
The slight sweetness of the fresh cabbage heart, paired with the soup that is so fresh that you can stick out of your tongue, instantly fills every corner of your mouth.
What the taste of cabbage is in the end, it doesn't matter what he looks down on the cabbage that civilians love to eat!
This soup is obviously the best among all the clear soups he has drunk, and even the old hen soup stewed in the palace kitchen does not necessarily have this skill, right?
He began to pull the bottom of the bowl with chopsticks, turning left and right, and there were just a few cabbage leaves in this soup, and nothing else?
After a while, Hao Lian Zhai Yang directly held the bowl and drank the soup to the bottom, then sighed happily and stretched out a thumbs up to Xiao Yuyan.
smiled and said: "Yuyan, I will take what you can eat is the best delicious tongue, this soup is really not ordinary."
Xiao Yuyan just smiled lightly and didn't move her chopsticks again.
King Shizi of Jin put down the bowl and spoon and said to the entourage beside him: "Xiao Yanzi, go and call the guys over." ”
"Okay, Lord Shizi!" Xiao Yanzi immediately went out to call a buddy.
After a while, Fang Yuan in the courtyard received a message from his fellow man.
The distinguished guests in the private room explained that after the finals were over in a while, they would serve the dishes made by Ye Qing to them to taste, and if they were satisfied, they would let Ye Qing personally go up to receive the reward.
After the thirty judges ate the dim sum made by Ye Qing, they found that there was nothing to eat for the main dish on this table.
They also used the cabbage soup as a snack, and now there is nothing on the table except for half a plate, which can be seen as the peacock open-screen fish that was originally good.
But it's already cold, and if something like fish is cold, they think it's not tasty and smelly.
So most of the people left this table and scattered to the other tables to find something to eat.
However, a few people were reluctant to leave, looking at the fish.
Thinking about the taste of the cabbage soup I just ate is simply outstanding!
I never knew that a bowl of soup like boiling water could make people eat so much that they were amazed.
