As she spoke, Xiahou Ying turned around and took the tray that was originally held by Xue'er.

When everyone saw that there was a wide-mouthed jar on the tray, they couldn't help but be stunned, could it be that Xiahou Ying wanted to invite them to eat Laotan sauerkraut?

Xiahou Ying put the jar on the table, and then opened the lid on the jar, and suddenly bursts of aroma wafted out of the altar.

"It smells so good!" Wei Ziqi couldn't help but stand up, stretching his neck to see what kind of delicious food was in the jar, it was so fragrant.

"Our Lu family's ingredients are really limited, and we can't make any exquisite food, so I had to steam a pot of rice for everyone, and I hope you will eat more, and don't say that I'm hungry after I go out!" Xia Houying said to a few people while stirring the rice in the jar with a wooden shovel.

"Oh, Miss Lu, hurry up and serve me a bowl, my saliva is going to come down!" Wei Ziqi handed his rice bowl to Xiahou Ying's eyes, and said with a blank eye.

Xiahou Ying smiled and took Wei Ziqi's bowl and filled him with a big bowl of rice.

Wei Ziqi took the rice bowl and began to eat it before he sat down, praising while eating.

Seeing that Wei Ziqi ate so well, Nan Rongliang and Situ Jie, who originally wanted to pretend to be reserved, couldn't sit still.

Although Xia Houying said that she was just steaming a pot of rice, and it did seem that it was just a pot of white rice, however, if it was just ordinary rice, how could it exude such an attractive aroma?

Nan Rongliang picked up a grain of rice and put it in his mouth, chewed it slowly, and savored the taste.

The rice is soaked in chicken broth with oil removed, and although it has the umami flavor of chicken broth, it does not feel greasy.

However, instead of using chicken broth, the rice was boiled in a bone broth that had been prepared in advance.

And the most amazing thing is that in addition to the taste of chicken broth and bone broth, there is also a faint aroma of ham, which makes people wonder how it is made for a while.

Wei Ziqi looked at Xiahou Ying suspiciously, "How did the taste of this ham come from?" ”

"This is my unique secret, how can I pass it on casually?" Xiahou Ying smiled proudly.

Nan Rongliang picked up the last grain of rice in the bowl, put it in his mouth, and chewed slowly for a long time before swallowing it. It's not that he eats so elegantly, it's just that the jar of rice has been snatched clean by Wei Ziqi and Situ Ji, and he can't taste it if he doesn't want to......

"Actually, it's not difficult," Nan Rongliang put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said indifferently, "The mystery is on this jar, if my guess is right, it should be that before putting the rice into the jar, a layer of ham was spread on the inner wall of the jar, so that when the jar is sealed and starts to cook rice, the fresh aroma of the ham will naturally slowly invade the rice." ”

"Wow! So that's it! Miss Lu, I didn't expect you to have so many tricks and even cook so much! Wei Ziqi said with admiration.

Although this compliment sounds weird, Xiahou Ying also knows that Wei Ziqi is such a person who can say whatever comes to mind, so naturally he will not bother with him.

"When we're full, shouldn't we do something?" Situ Jian bit his chopsticks and looked at the others in the banquet.

"I don't know what young master Ji has to propose?" Xia Houying asked with a smile.

"I don't dare to make a proposal, but I vaguely remember that the phoenix kite in Xiahou Mansion seems to be with you, I wonder if we have a chance to appreciate it today?"
