Chapter 231: Zongzi

"I heard a few things about you when I just entered the house, and you don't want to be idle?" Zhang Yi was entering the door, he ripped open his collar and snatched Brother Xu Ying's fan, squeezed it a few times, and complained: "Ghost weather, it's still cloudy in the morning, and it's so hot in the afternoon." ”

Brother Xu Ying handed over a cup of herbal tea, and when Zhang Yizheng drank it, he handed over a wet handkerchief: "What have you heard of me?" ”

"I've heard it all." Zhang Yizheng looked at her expression, but she didn't see the frustration or grievance, so she couldn't help but sigh secretly, motioned for her to sit next to her, and said in a low voice: "You and I husband and wife, you don't have to force a smile." ”

Brother Xu Ying shook his head: "It's me who doesn't listen to you, the mother concubine has already said me, I figured it out." ”

Zhang Yizheng was not reluctant, and changed the topic: "When did you compile the health recipe?" How am I? In fact, you have presented a sketch of the phoenix crown and hairpin, which can be regarded as a birthday gift. ”

Brother Xu Ying smiled: "Didn't the third master always laugh at me for being used to slapping and begging? It's been a long time. After that, he got up and took out a booklet from the dressing table and handed it to Zhang Yizheng.

Zhang Yizheng looked through it, and saw that the beginning of the above was the few delicacies she was used to cooking, with beautiful handwriting and exquisite binding, so she put it aside with disinterest: "I want to come to Niangniang is very loved." ”

Brother Xu Ying squeezed his eyes: "It's not just the mother's love, but there are many people who love it." ”

While speaking, Zi Haze came in with a plate, one of each of which was still steaming with various flavors of zongzi, which was fragrant. Brother Xu Ying was greedy, and hurriedly got up to untie the silk thread. The zongzi was too hot, so hot that she blew and picked it, and from time to time she put her burned hand on her earlobe to relieve the pain.

Zhang Yi was watching silently from the side, and unexpectedly remembered the eve of the Dragon Boat Festival the year before last. At that time, his family had not yet had an incident, he went to Xu's house to send the festival, and happened to meet Brother Xu Yingchu who cooked a pot of zongzi, and she was also afraid of burning and gluttonous zongzi. From time to time, she pouted a few more greedy children than her to solve them, and she laughed happily when she saw others being burned. He wanted to please her, and he was cheeky to solve it. Then take advantage of no one's attention to touch her cold earlobes to relieve her hunger.

In a trance, a fragrant egg yolk pork belly dumpling was handed to him, and Brother Xu Ying smiled softly: "This is delicious, can you taste it?" ”

Zhang Yizheng was suddenly very sad, Brother Xu Ying didn't like this taste, but this taste was Cui Cheng's favorite, so she had to cook a lot for him every year, and now she sent this zongzi to him, did she still think Cui Cheng did. He must like it too? The past is gone. None of this matters anymore, what matters is now and later. Zhang Yizheng took a bite with a smile, and shook her head firmly with the saliva that came out of her mouth: "I don't like it, it's not delicious", the latest chapter is: ". ”

Brother Xu Ying was stunned, and then smiled: "Then let's change it." ”

Zhang Yizheng lowered his head and chewed the freshly peeled chestnut ham dumplings vigorously, when he heard Brother Xu Ying distributing them on the side: "Pick up six eight-color zongzi and send them to the prince and princess, the fifth master and the side concubine will each send four, and the eldest grandmother, the second grandmother, and the fourth grandmother will each send four." The three ladies each gave two each, and the gentlemen in the outer study each gave two each......"

The chestnut ham dumplings are fragrant and glutinous, not sweet or greasy, salty and fresh, Zhang Yizheng slowly regained some feeling, and interjected: "Don't send it to your parents-in-law?" ”

Brother Xu Ying said: "Today's family eats by themselves, and tomorrow we will distribute it everywhere, not only our mother's family, but also the princess's mansion, the martial mansion, the Tang mansion, etc." ”

Zhang Yizheng said: "Leave some out, I will send it to your brother's house tomorrow." ”

Brother Xu Ying glanced at him silently and said, "Okay." ”

Zhang Yizheng said: "As the mother concubine said, when I go on this trip, I will decompose and decompose for you, if he still doesn't follow, then forget it." No matter if he goes back to the ministry on an errand in the future, or what he wants to do, we just help the handle in secret. ”

"Hmm." Brother Xu Ying didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, so he turned his head and asked someone to prepare water for him to bathe. When Zhang Yizheng cleaned up, the two of them rested in front of the window and said some gossip, Zhang Yizheng knew that she didn't want to mention Xu Fu, so she told her some border scenery, but also calm and comfortable, "come: watch popular romance on the Internet".

The bell came in and replied: "Grandma, the zongzi everywhere have been delivered, and the kitchen is washing the zongzi leaves and soaking rice, you can start to wrap some more tonight, and after cooking it overnight, it can be sent to the mansions tomorrow." ”

"Good." Brother Xu Ying turned his head and asked Zhang Yizheng with a smile: "Does the third master have someone to send?" As I said at the same time, I'm also here to prepare. ”

Zhang Yizheng remembered that Wang Shudao often ate the zongzi given to him by Brother Xu Ying, and he was very greedy. I wanted to send him a few, but the words were already in my mouth, and I finally shook my head silently.

The bell smiled and said to Brother Xu Ying: "Grandma, all the masters are full of praise, many people are asking the maid, is this zongzi also written into the recipe compiled by grandma?" A few little ladies clamored to come over for a sneak peek. ”

Brother Xu Ying smiled: "Really? So why not come? ”

The bell glanced at Zhang Yizheng, and saw that Zhang Yizheng was looking at the flowers and trees in the yard, and there was no dislike on his face, so he boldly said: "Mrs. Hua was about to come over to take a look, but she was stopped by the grandmother." Min Niangzi was also curious, and the second grandmother detained her to write and was not allowed to come. The third lady watched it for a long time and said that she would come to learn from you another day. The fourth grandmother didn't ask anything, so she rewarded the maid with a penny, but the red clothes in her room pulled the maid and asked for a long time, saying that this zongzi is not only good-looking, but also fresh to eat, why not keep it hidden in the recipe and sell it when the time comes? The maid said as grandma instructed, saying what is this zongzi, and where is it worth writing in the recipe? Grandma doesn't know how many new things this way is. ”

"The zongzi to be cooked tonight are all to be given away, you can't be sloppy, you go and call Zi Ha and Qiu Rong to go to the kitchen to keep an eye on it." Brother Xu Ying was very satisfied, the concubine and the Wang family wanted to avoid suspicion and didn't want to spy on it, Feng Bao'er's attitude was worth pondering, there was no novelty at all, but let the girl ask below, indicating that she was tempted.

When the bell receded, Zhang Yizheng tilted his body on the rattan chair and said, "What bad things are you going to do?" ”

Brother Xu Ying smiled: "What bad things can I do? Why did the third master say this? ”

Zhang Yizheng glanced at her: "I know you love to be ingenious." But I never knew you loved to show off. ”

Brother Xu Ying approached him and whispered, "You guessed right." I'm fishing for law enforcement. Seeing Zhang Yizheng's inexplicable face, he smiled and said: "I know that some people like to do bad things, but unfortunately they don't have a chance to do it, so let's give her a chance to let her do something bad, so that she can go to the scene and get the stolen goods." ”

Knowing that she has always been measured, Zhang Yizheng didn't bother to care about her, and only said: "Then I wish you a victory." Except for zongzi. What do you want to do tomorrow? ”

Brother Xu Ying held his chin and smiled: "Tomorrow I will be a Buddha jumping over the wall." ”

"Buddha jumping over the wall?" Zhang Yizheng had never heard of it, and Brother Xu Ying gestured: "It's so fragrant that even the monk can't help jumping over the wall to eat it when he smells it, do you say it's fragrant?" ”

In the blink of an eye. This Buddha jumped over the wall and spread all over King Kang's mansion before it came out of the pot, making everyone curious, even King Kang couldn't help but look forward to it when he heard about it.

Nothing was said all night.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Yi was resting, got up early to pack up, brought the zongzi prepared by Brother Xu Ying, and only took Zhu Gui and Xiaoman to Xu Fu's new house on Changsheng Street, Xinchangfang. The twins waited for him to go, and for about half an hour followed. After another half an hour, Feng Bao'er got the permission of Princess Kang, and the spring breeze was full of timidity. But Zhang Youran, who was dressed up much brighter and cuter, also returned to her parents' house with a box of zongzi. But the two henchmen in red clothes and Biwen were left at home. I didn't take it with me.

Brother Xu Ying, according to the Haikou boasted yesterday, mysteriously borrowed Princess Kang's small kitchen, and did not come out as soon as she got in, and the one who helped was also the kitchen lady who was trusted by her and Princess Kang. After that, I heard all kinds of legends, what is this dish exquisite, charcoal fire to use pure and smokeless high-quality charcoal. I used another jar of wine, and I asked for lotus leaves, not to mention that everyone was interested in such a big movement, even Princess Kang asked from time to time. Concubine Xuanfang sat in the room for a while, but she couldn't sit still, so she cheekily ran to Xuanle Hall to guard.

The bell had nothing to do, so he sat with a few little girls by the lake to weave grass and play, played and fought grass, and saw Biwen dangling from a distance, so he greeted Biwen warmly: "Sister Biwen come to sit." ”

Biwen held a stack of patterns in her hand, and excused herself: "I'm going to send patterns to Hua Niangzi, I'm afraid I won't be idle, you can play." ”

The bell smiled and said: "There is no hurry for any tricks, it is rare that the masters are busy, so we are just free." ”

Biwen also sat down and said with a smile: "Why don't you follow your grandmother into the kitchen?" If you learn the craft, you won't have to worry about it in the future. ”

The bell said, "What is that?" How can any person get in? It was the best dish in our grandmother's recipe. If you get it right, you won't be able to show your face at the palace banquet. ”

Biwen's eyes moved slightly, and he smiled: "So good? I saw dozens of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and I had to use a jar of wine, isn't it intoxicating? ”

The bell secretly "bah", his heart is really good-eyed, and he even remembered that he had sent dozens of things in, but his face became more and more proud: "Our grandmother has her own calculations." Speaking of which, this is our palace, where do ordinary people find these many precious and fresh ingredients? I'm afraid I won't be able to prepare it for a few days! ”

Biwen became more and more interested: "Is it a stew or a stir-fry?" I just can't think of how to do so many things. ”

"There are fried and fried ......" Bell shook his head suddenly, covered his mouth and said, "I don't know." ”

Biwen sat for a while, and saw that she really couldn't ask anything, so she had to resign. After seeing Hua Niang, she handed over the pattern first, and then covered her mouth and smiled: "It's hard for Hua Niang to be so calm at such a young age, and now everyone in the mansion is thinking about the Buddha jumping over the wall of the third grandmother, but you can still calm down and embroider." ”

Hua Niang raised a finger and gently "shh My mother won't let me go and see the excitement. Tell me, how's it going? ”

Biwen told a story like adding oil and vinegar to it, and then said goodbye and left. Hua Niang sat for a moment, got up lightly, and forcibly pulled Min Niang to go to Xuanle Hall.
