Chapter Two Hundred and Three: Plain as Water

The Li family in the capital? The Emperor asked.

"If I'm not mistaken, his wife is the eldest lady of the Li family." Nan Anbai's father had a good relationship with the Li family, especially with the elders of the Li family, when his father was still alive, the Li family often corresponded with the family, but after his father died in the war, Nan Anbai was soaked in the army all day long, but he was not in the mood to manage these relationships.

But for the Li family's previous kindness to their family, Nan Anbai naturally wanted to repay him.

"Oh? That's interesting, the son-in-law of the Li family actually became a small prefect in Quzhou, interesting, interesting. "With the power of the Li family, being an official in the court is just a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning, as long as there is no scholar who does not want to stay in the capital, there are really not many people who give up the opportunity to stay in the capital.

Nan Anbai also thinks so.

The prefect and the emperor finally met.

In the house next door to Ye Tiantian, the prefect visited the emperor, and the reason why the emperor wanted the prefect to know his identity was that the current Quzhou prefect made him very satisfied.

"Wechen meets the emperor." The prefect knelt respectfully on the ground.

"Hurry up, didn't I come over and scare you accidentally." The emperor began to joke again.

How dare the prefect say anything and hurriedly replied: "It's the fault of Weichen, he didn't find out in advance that the emperor came to Quzhou." ”

The emperor shook his head: "I don't care about your business, I quietly summoned you here to make you feel at ease, you are doing a good job here, I think that if you are willing to return to the capital, I will give you an official from the second rank, even if it is a new official?" ”

The prefect of Quzhou hurriedly kowtowed to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen wants to stay in Quzhou for the rest of his life, even if Weichen goes back to the capital on an errand, he is not easy to come here." ”

"It's such a good place in the capital, you don't want to go back?" There was already something dangerous in the Emperor's tone.

He hurriedly kowtowed and continued: "Please don't blame the emperor, the so-called plotting in his position, even if I don't want to return to the capital, in Quzhou, I can also help the emperor manage here, I hope Quzhou can become the emperor's place to forget his worries." ”

The emperor didn't mean to blame him in the first place, since he wanted to stay here, so he didn't want to.

"Since you have such a mind, stay here and govern my place well, and I will naturally give you no less rewards in the future." The Emperor said with a smile.

"Wechen Xie Emperor Longen." The hanging heart finally let go, he and his wife were unwilling to enter the capital again and fell into endless struggles, and spending the rest of their lives in Quzhou was the best choice.

The prefect solved a major matter in his heart, and after telling his subordinates to protect the emperor, he went back and discussed the future with his wife, and both of them were relieved.

A month passed in such a hurry, and after the Double Ninth Festival, it was time for the emperor to return to the palace.

"Drunken Xiang Pavilion has a new dish!" Because of the popularity of Zuixiang Pavilion, every time there is a new one, there are special people responsible for delivering news in the streets and alleys.

Because of the Chung Yeung Festival, the decoration of the streets and alleys has changed slightly.

The bricks and stones outside the drunken incense pavilion and the leaves and fields are depicted with chrysanthemums. It has a different charm, the chrysanthemums that Ye Tiantian transplanted in the yard before have bloomed, and fresh chrysanthemums have been placed on every table in the Drunken Xiang Pavilion.

On the day of the Chung Yeung Festival, the Drunken Xiang Pavilion had just opened, and the people in the inner room were full.

"Chrysanthemum feast?" The guests looked at the menu and there were only these three words.

At this time, the shopkeeper stood on the platform in the middle and introduced: "Welcome guests, this time in order to let everyone spend a profound Double Ninth Festival, the store officially launched a chrysanthemum banquet, all the dishes in it are only available today, and the osmanthus brewed made by the shopkeeper himself, everyone is welcome to taste." ”

The cheers came one after another, and after the shopkeeper finished speaking, the atmosphere on the field became active again, and everyone was talking about what this chrysanthemum banquet was.

The complete chrysanthemum banquet has a total of cold dishes: chrysanthemum bucket chicken, chrysanthemum petal bullwhip jelly, chrysanthemum leaf elbow flower, chrysanthemum fragrant ruyi roll, golden chrysanthemum mixed with fragrant dry, refreshing chrysanthemum celery, beautiful chrysanthemum drunken jujube, chrysanthemum-shaped mushroom stone.

Hot dishes: Golden chrysanthemum palace swallow, white chrysanthemum frost wings, fragrant grouper, custard chrysanthemum-shaped shrimp, chrysanthemum leaf eel, chrysanthemum crab fat, Songdu chrysanthemum red crisp roll, honey green chrysanthemum, lily double chrysanthemum, colored chrysanthemum corn kernels.

Eight dishes for cold dishes and eight dishes for hot dishes are the good fortune of great luck.

In order to be able to eat the dishes today, Ye Tiantian also officially opened a table today, which can not only eat a complete chrysanthemum feast, but also promote the communication between people in the restaurant.

The way of sharing the table does make many people feel novel, but the best thing is the idea of this chrysanthemum banquet, Ye Tiantian's own osmanthus brew is even more refreshing, the sweet taste is not the spicy taste of wine, but the rich taste of osmanthus makes people feel the taste of autumn.

Many people who loved their wives at home filled a pot and said they wanted to take it home to their wives to taste.

Yaya sent fresh shrimp and crabs a day in advance, Ye Tiantian originally wanted Yaya to send ten boxes, so that she could also take this opportunity to help her, but this time Yaya put down her things and left directly, without giving Ye Tiantian a chance.

But she didn't care, there was always a chance to meet again, and next time she would bring something delicious to Yaya.

The shopkeeper took advantage of the time when he was free, and also drank the osmanthus brewed by Ye Tiantian, which was the day of the Double Ninth Festival, and the osmanthus brewed was not charged, but Ye Tiantian has always been very good to the people who do things for himself, and the osmanthus brew was drunk by them, and this wine would not be intoxicating, and it would not affect the work of the store.

Ye Tiantian was busy making two hot dishes in the kitchen, the first is the chrysanthemum-shaped shrimp, first put the chrysanthemum petals in the pot and water again, and then wrap the fresh shrimp in sweet potato flour, put it in the oil pan and fry, fry until the shrimp body blooms, then sprinkle chrysanthemums in the cracked mouth, and then pour the boiling water boiling chrysanthemums on it, the bottom of the shrimp is covered with fresh chrysanthemums, and the golden shrimp body and the color of the chrysanthemums complement each other.

The recipe for this dish is quite simple, so the chef who followed Ye Tiantian quickly learned it. There is also a chrysanthemum crab fat, which was originally used to describe autumn, but it also has a different flavor when used as the name of the dish.

Pry the crab shell open, boil the crab body until it is red, the whole chrysanthemum is placed under the crab, a whole eight hairy crabs, Ye Tiantian knows, since this is eight dishes, it is eaten by eight people, eight hairy crabs can not only show the sincerity of the drunken Xiangge, but also make the people who come to eat happy, after all, there is one less crab, how much it will make people feel uncomfortable in their hearts.
