Gu Ting was unmoved: "Second brother, what are these words?" ”

The second master smiled: "What do our brothers understand, a brother and sister are so good, let the father and mother recognize this daughter-in-law, it is more than ascending to the sky, the seventh!" ”

Gu Tingwen clinked glasses with him and drank them all: "Thank you second brother for reminding me." ”

"My own brother." Gu Tingwang played with the empty cup and looked at him with a smile, "I heard that my younger brother and sister have a slap-long scar on their arms, if this is burned on their necks......

Gu Tingwen looked at him.

He couldn't get enough momentum and took a step back: "Come on, it's rare for uncles to gather together to rejoice, you and I must not be disliked." ”

Gu Tingwen's face was not very good, and it was inevitable that he would have a stern demeanor when greeting guests. This time, it can be regarded as ruining the lively atmosphere.

The elders of the clan had to sit with a smile, not to mention the woman who was sitting next to her, from salivating to fawning to trembling in fear.

Ren Yan sat behind the beaded curtain, holding his chin and listening to the drama on the stage.

Seeing him come in, her eyebrows were full of tiredness, so she smiled: "Don't you also like to talk to your elders?" At that time at home, the grandfather and uncle were always thinking about Yang'er, and they had to go up to the front to order during the New Year's Festival, and they had to listen to the numbers at the end. ”

At this time, brothers and sisters can hold their children, whether they are a mother or not, you help me and I will help you, first talk about the others, and it is not too late to turn around and pick up the hatred.

Young children are so simple and happy.

Gu Ting heard her say that she was funny, and always looked at her with a smile.

Ren Yan said for a long time, and when he saw that he didn't speak, he reached out and touched his face: "What, aren't you happy?" ”

He smiled, took her hand back, took a hot towel and wiped the osmanthus dew on her fingertips: "No, I want to hear you talk more." ”

The little girl who was protecting Ren Yan retreated early, not far from the outside, and only separated by a curtain, although the movements of the people inside were not careful, but most of them could understand the meaning.

These uncles treat the wives of the main house, and some of them are just respectful of each other, where have I seen the golden and precious gentlemen serving women, and now they are sighing that Gu Ting is not angry, that is, the world is declining.

I didn't drink the wine, I didn't drink the food, and I was about to disperse after saying two sentences.

One of the two brothers couldn't keep people, and the other didn't entertain guests, so they had to send people out of the door.

Gu Tingwen led Ren Yan to stand outside the door, he called a word, and introduced one to Ren Yan, which was the style of the master's family, and the elders naturally disagreed.

Most of them shook their heads and sighed, and there were about one or two who cautiously patted Gu Tingwen's shoulder: "Old Seven, you must not wait for your parents' orders, the words of the matchmaker, this is the ancestral etiquette!" ”

If you don't wait for your parents' orders, the words of the matchmaker, peep through the holes, and obey each other over the wall, your parents and people are cheap.

Ren Yan felt that he hadn't read much, but what he should have seen and what he shouldn't have not been left behind. She was a rebel, and what she thought was ridiculous at the time sounded ridiculous now.

What's more, the gentlemen around her were still holding her hand, and then looked at her and smiled: "Fourth uncle, this is Zhaoming's fiancée." ”

"Zhao Ming, is it your cousin?" After sending off the guests, Ren Yan picked up this fun thing.

Gu Tingwen smiled: "Yes, it was too cumbersome when I was young, and no one was allowed to mention it, and I almost forgot it." ”

She turned her head to look at him: "What's the matter?" ”

He shook his head, "No, my mother is probably taken from 'Huang Lan Yu Chu Xi, Zhao Xi Yu is famous'." ”

Ren Yan smiled: "Mother saw that you had an outstanding bearing, so she gave you such a word, and she was very particular." ”

He looked at her and smiled, but the joy ran out of his eyes and could not be hidden.

She realized it and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Nope." He held her hand and walked leisurely, "You have eaten a lot, eat and then sleep?" ”

“…… Good. ”

You can't blame her, after all, there is a plate of lamp shadow beef on the table.

The plate is bright red and shiny, and it tastes numb and spicy in the mouth, crispy and delicious, and a thin slice melts between the lips and teeth, I don't know how much it can consume.

Thinking about it now, I still have to salivate, and Ren Yan rubbed his stomach in embarrassment.

He knocked her on the head: "The wound has not healed, you are allowed to eat a piece, and you don't know moderation." ”

She pouted in disgust: "I only ate a snack in the house, drank half a bowl of porridge, and I was hungry!" ”

"I'm sorry."

He remembered something, and still laughed.

Ren Yan's brain turned quickly, and they were lying on their necks in the house, lingering on their feet; If he hadn't withdrawn in time, I'm afraid that tonight would really be full of merit.

She smiled secretly, squeezing her tongue between her teeth, and still had the numb aroma of beef, and the taste flowed, spicy and hot.

Ren Yan lowered his head, not daring to look into his eyes: "Do you know how to make Lantern Shadow Beef?" ”

"Hmm."

The evening's walk ended in the kitchenette.

Ren Yan still sat on the stool and watched him cook for her obediently.

There are a lot of yellow beef legs left in the kitchen, which are strong and plump, and the meat is delicate and compact; The knife and the meat are not happy to touch the cold water, so they can remove the tendons and repair the bones, and slice them into extremely thin slices of meat.

The sliced beef slice is the size of a palm, sticking to the blade of the knife and facing the light, crystal clear, and the shadow can be seen through a gesture.

Ren Yan pinched the fingers of the men opposite, very regretful: "It's a pity not to be a chef." ”

Gu Tingwen puffed up the back of his hand and touched her face: "Go get the basket." ”

"Okay."

She picked up a smaller basket of bamboo, and when she turned around, she saw that he was spreading salt evenly on the slices of meat, and then rolling it into a meat tube, which she lay in the basket.

Twenty pieces were stacked upright, and hung on the window to dry the blood.

Ren Yan looked left and left, and sat still: "How long will it take to dry, will there be rats, wild cats, yellow wolves, how can it be good to come and steal food?" ”

He Quan tied the rope and was happy: "Miss Ren, you can rest assured, there are no such things at home, if we call it to see, we will be too successful, no matter whether people or little beasts dare to come to grab food." ”

She asked someone to pull her away, but she was still uneasy: "Is it really a real Ge'er, there is a shortage of food on a snowy day!" ”

He Quan came in from outside, moved a stool and sat down: "Don't you have me to guard here, when the time comes, please ask the seventh master to come and cook it for you to eat, no one will dare to come here if there is a shortage of food, I will fight hard with him." ”

Only then did she feel at ease, and told Gu Tingwen: "Remember to call me when you are cooking." ”

He shook his head and sighed, smiling helplessly.

didn't answer, but asked her to get up when it was cold.

The table clock rang three times, Gu Tingwen rubbed his eyebrows with a pen, and He Quan sent tea into the door: "Seventh master, you can't always stay up like this, Mr. Zhang's affairs can't be too urgent." ”

"Any news from the south?"

Mr. Cheng didn't reply, probably stumbling. You also know the big event in July this year, and everyone in the capital is staring at it, afraid that it is restricted from coming. ”

"Shi'an ......" he bent his fingers and tapped on the table, carelessly.

After washing, he spoke: "Go to the kitchen." ”

"Is it Miss Ren?"

"Don't startle her to get up."

The Gu Mansion was quiet, but someone couldn't help but smell it and came.

When Ren Yan entered the kitchen, he was still twisting a big loose braid, his eyes were shining, and he smiled and showed a mouthful of small white teeth: "Mr. Zhaoming, morning!" ”

Gu Tingwen rolled up his sleeves, and was spreading the beef rolls piece by piece on the bulging belly of the basket, charcoal was burning in the open charcoal basin, and he smiled: "Morning, Miss Ren!" ”

She jumped up to her: "Looks like I arrived at the right time, did I sleep last night?" ”

He didn't answer and asked, "What, something?" ”

She narrowed her eyes: "The mattress is cold, I always feel that you didn't come to lie down." ”

He didn't take the bait, and instructed He Quan: "Order someone to add two more mattresses to Miss Ren." ”

"Hey!" She stopped the person and complained, "Do I mean that, you man, it's really boring!" ”

He laughed and rubbed her hair even more messy: "I didn't pay attention to writing articles, and at this time, I simply don't bother you." ”

The colander was drying the water on the charcoal, and he took her hand and sat down on the small stool: "Get up so early, do you want to go to work?" ”

Ren Yan shook her head: "On the last day of class at the girls' school, there was a dance party in the second half of the night, and I ended up going to see Hui Yu, she was sick for several days." ”

Gu Ting snorted: "I'm not in a good mood, I can't wake up for a few hours a day." ”

Her voice sank: "In two months, she will get married." ”

Until the beef slices dried out of steam, no one spoke again.

Gu Tingwen picked out the meat slices and put them in the steamer to steam them for half an hour, took them out and changed them into small slices, steamed them again, and dried them in a new basket.

Cool the time, heat the pot with vegetable oil, stir the ginger shreds and pepper grains, leave the hot fire and wait for the hot oil to slowly stain the ginger peppers; Take advantage of the time to spread the cold slices of meat with the marinated marinade.

The oil soaked the fragrance, the ginger pepper was skimmed off by the fence, the oil was heated over the fire, and then the beef was fried in the pan one by one; Wait until it can form a clear amber flake before removing from the pan.

The square slices of thin meat in the plate, the sauce is yellow and transparent, stacked in two neat stacks, waiting for the powdered sugar and chili powder to soak the fragrance in the oil, and then roll back in.

But Ren Yan never waited for the bright red pepper powder in his heart, and watched Gu Tingwen's hand sweep over the porcelain jar with the chili pepper, prepared sugar and fragrant powder, fried the meat slices, adjusted the seasoning and sesame oil, and put it on the plate.

Without chili oil, the Lamp Shadow Beef is like a girl who has washed away the lead, and the makeup is as soft as amber.

Delicious and elegant, thin and crispy.

She ate half of the plate with chopsticks before muttering, "It's not as good as last night." ”

is telling a lie, she is mourning the chili powder that has not been allowed to eat.

"Really?" He lifted his glasses and reached out to take her chopsticks, "Then I'll eat it." ”

She had always been very good at taking care of food, and she picked up her plate and ran out, wanting to go back to her room and hide it.

The snow was deep and icy all night, and before the girls had time to clean it up, she slipped on her foot carelessly, and fell straight into the snow with her head.

The little girls panicked, called Miss Ren, and came to hold her with all hands and feet.

Gu Ting heard that he chased her out to probe the wound on her arm, and the girl was snowballed in the snowdrift, fluttering the snow slag on her head, and holding the saucer in front of him like a treasure: "Look, it didn't break!" ”

Everyone fell on their stomachs, but the dishes and bowls did not move at all, and even the lamp shadow beef in the dishes was stacked upright, which was enduring!

The girls and boys in the courtyard all held back their laughter, this Miss Ren is too lively!

Gu Tingwen was so choked by her that he couldn't speak, and pulled someone up to dust the snow: "Did you knock it?" ”

She shook her head and leaned closer to him and grinned, "My flesh is old and strong, didn't you touch it all yesterday?" ”

Leaning closer, the breath of speech reached the lenses of his glasses, foggy.

The mirror is full of flowers, and he has always been seductive, but he couldn't hold back for a while, and bowed his head and kissed it.
