arranged the old lady's, and then let the maid take the meal with special seasonings and help Hongzhu back to the main house.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw that the second master was already sitting in the hall, talking to Hongyu, and when the two of them saw her come in, they both shut up.

"The second master looks more energetic today," Mengxi said to Xiao Jun while motioning to the maid to set the meal.

"I slept heavily last night, I had a good night's sleep, I felt energetic when I got up in the morning, my hands and feet were strong, I just took a turn in the courtyard, moved my muscles and bones, and now I feel hungry" Xiao Jun looked at the food on the table, he was in a good mood and talked a lot.

"This is the concubine personally made three fresh tofu, the main ingredient is tofu, mushrooms, mushrooms, bamboo shoots This dish has the effect of tonifying and benefiting qi, clearing heat and dissolving phlegm, and is most suitable for diseases such as illness, body weakness, spleen and stomach weakness, poor diet, shortness of breath and less food. The second master will use it more later."

Mengxi pointed to the three fresh tofu that was served, introduced it in a slow voice, and then introduced several other dishes one by one. After the dishes were ready, I washed my hands and stepped forward to give the second master a dish.

The dishes were set, and seeing that Mengxi was going to come over to serve, Xiao Jun thought for a while and said:

"This has red jade on the line, you go to the room to ask the old lady for peace, tell grandma that I am better today, I feel that my legs are much stronger, and my hands can hold heavier things, I also punched this morning, tell grandma not to be concerned, I will go to ask for peace in person after two days, I have a lot of affairs in my study, you don't need to come back to serve in a hurry, you are there to accompany grandma for me."

Mengxi answered, turned around and returned to the inner room, under the service of Hongzhu, changed clothes, refreshed up, and walked with Hongzhu to the old lady's Shouxi Hall.

When I arrived at the Shouxi Hall and entered the hall, I turned the big screen of Songhe Yannian, and saw that the old lady was already sitting there, except for the eldest man who went out to take care of business yesterday and did not return to the house at night, everyone arrived, Mengxi hurriedly stepped forward to greet the old lady and the eldest lady, and gave the uncle, grandmother, and third master a salute, and then sat down under the grandmother.

After Mengxi sat down, the old lady asked, "Why did Xi'er come so early today, and how is Jun'er?" ”

Mengxi hurriedly stood up and said to Lao Junfu:

"The second master is in good health today, the granddaughter-in-law just set the meal in the morning, I wanted to serve the second master to eat and then come over, but the second master was in a hurry to come over, let the granddaughter-in-law come to the old lady first, and go back to the old lady, the second master is already better today, I feel that the legs are much stronger, and the hands can hold heavy objects, the second master also practiced a trip this morning, I want the old lady not to be concerned, and after two days, the second master will come to the old lady to ask for peace, and the granddaughter-in-law will ask for peace, don't be in a hurry to go back, accompany the grandmother for the second master there"

"Okay, good, Jun'er is good, the old body is relieved, this is really the blessing of our Xiao family, Xi'er will not be too late to come over after serving Jun'er in the morning, here is your mother-in-law and your sister-in-law, don't rush over" The old lady said happily.

Mengxi was busy, remembered the meal sent in the morning, and said:

"Old lady, granddaughter-in-law saw the newly purchased jade bamboo in the house this morning, fresh bamboo shoots, itchy hands for a while, remembered the dishes she had eaten before, so she made three fresh tofu for the second master, and jade bamboo stew, thinking that these two dishes are soft and delicious, easy to digest, very suitable for the old lady to eat, so I added two more dishes, with plum blossom porridge and a few colors of pastries made in the morning, and sent them together, after a while, the old lady compensated, and the granddaughter-in-law made the old lady smile."

"It's good to have this filial piety, the porridge made by Xi'er is delicious and tight, much better than the cook in the house, hurry up, write the method of making porridge, let the kitchen make it, and everyone will pay for it"

Mengxi was busy, and the family chatted for a while, and the old lady ordered someone to set the meal.

The old lady directly ordered the eldest lady to sit, let Mengxi and the eldest grandmother serve on the side, the eldest lady sat down with the old lady, looking at Mengxi standing beside the old lady, a trace of cruelty flashed in her eyes, she didn't like this daughter-in-law at all, and today I saw that she was just thinking about how to make the old lady happy, and she didn't take her as a legitimate mother-in-law seriously, and her psychology was even more annoying.

Mengxi carefully clothed the old lady, and the old lady picked up a small piece of meat that Mengxi put on the plate in front of her eyes and put it in her mouth, and asked in surprise:

"How is this meat made, it melts in your mouth and has a fresh aftertaste?"

Mengxi saw that the old lady liked it, so she hurriedly sandwiched a small piece of it and replied:

"Old lady, this is the jade bamboo stew that my granddaughter-in-law told you, first wash the pork, blanch the blood with boiling water, and take it out and cut it into pieces. Then put the meat and the chopped jade bamboo, green onion, ginger, cooking wine, and salt into the pot, and add an appropriate amount of water. First boil with a fire, and then simmer until cooked. Finally, remove the jade bamboo, green onion, ginger, add salt, pepper and other seasonings to make it. The fragrance you just got is the fragrance of jade bamboo, which has the effect of nourishing yin, moisturizing dryness, removing annoyance, and quenching thirst, this dish is not only delicious, but also has the effect of nourishing yin and moisturizing dryness, and is suitable for fever, injury, thirst, heat, weakness, waist and knee pain, indigestion, diarrhea and other diseases. People who are not sick can eat it to prevent diseases"

"Well, it's delicious, it's delicious," the old lady said as she nodded.

"This chicken is also made by the second sister-in-law?" Xiao Yun picked up another piece of chicken and put it on the plate in front of him and asked.

"The third master doesn't know, this dish is called Shouwu chicken, first cook Shouwu in a casserole, and decant out the frying juice; Then wash the chicken and cut it into diced meat, add cooking wine, monosodium glutamate, refined salt, and starch to make a good slurry. Remove the stems of fresh bamboo shoots and fresh peppers, wash the seeds, and cut them into cubes; Fry the diced chicken in the oil pan and remove it. Then add a little base oil to the pot, add diced chicken, cooking wine, refined salt, soy sauce and shou wu sauce, stir-fry quickly, and thicken with starch after flavoring. Polygonum multiflorum has the effect of nourishing the liver and kidneys, nourishing the blood and dispelling wind, and this dish has the effect of nourishing the liver and kidneys."

"The second grandmother's cooking is really delicious, who can you learn it from," the eldest lady asked casually.

Mengxi hurriedly replied: "My mother likes to cook, and my daughter-in-law often watches from the side, and if I see too much, I will be fine, as for the medicinal value of these dishes, my daughter-in-law sees it from the book."

When everyone put down the chopsticks, Mengxi found that the four dishes she made were basically at the bottom of the plate, which is not common in a big family like Xiao Mansion, Xiao Yun smiled at the second sister-in-law embarrassedly, because most of them were eaten by him and Xiao Qing, Xiao Yun also secretly thought: "In the future, I have to think about going to the second brother's to eat mixed rice."

The table was removed, and after the eldest lady, Xiao Qing, Xiao Yun and others left, the old lady said to Mengxi:

"Xi'er pinched the back of the old body very comfortably last year, I feel that the shoulders and arms are much easier, and last night I asked the waiter to try to knead it, but I didn't feel it at all, Xi'er pinched the old body again today, and let the waiter watch and learn from the side.
