At 12 o'clock in the afternoon, lunch officially began.

The place to eat is under a big tree by the lake, a tablecloth is spread out, and all kinds of dishes are placed on it, which is the place to eat. And everyone sat on the ground on the turf next to it, full of wild fun.

First serve a few cold dish platters, authentic from the best vegetables in the secret realm of Qinglian, when you don't move the chopsticks, the smell alone makes people drool. Shoot cucumber strips, steamed beans, roasted eggplant, pickled pepper and cabbage...... The natural flavor and no extra seasoning make you feel the charm of the best vegetables.

Fang Huiping's craftsmanship is indeed exquisite, and these most ordinary home-cooked dishes actually make a table of people drool.

If the hot dish is not served, no one usually uses chopsticks, but this routine can also be broken at will, such as cold dishes are too tempting, and the wine is too mellow.

And today's table, both are occupied.

The wine was naturally the Tibetan wine that Zeng Zhi took out from the Qinglian Secret Realm, but it was not the original Tibetan wine, but was diluted by Zeng Zhi with the spiritual energy spring water in the Qinglian Secret Realm.

In fact, if it has not been diluted, the wine is not very suitable for drinking, the wine is too strong, even a person like Zeng Zhi who has cultivated, at most, he will get drunk after drinking three taels, let alone ordinary people. Like Zeng Zhi's parents, they basically drank about five yuan, and they would get drunk and unconscious.

But even if the wine has been diluted a lot, after being disassembled, it is still fragrant all over the field.

Zeng Zhi is the host of today's meal, and he is the youngest, so the matter of pouring wine fell on his head. He took a bottle of wine and said, "Come on, come on, everyone is full, the hot food hasn't come up yet, let's taste the good wine first." ”

Zeng Zhi hugged the wine jar, first filled a glass for Chen Yongping, and then poured it for Peng Zhengwang, followed by Lin Qingzhang and other leaders in the township.

Although Zeng Zhi doesn't like to socialize, he still knows the basic rules.

Because I don't have to leave immediately after lunch, but I have to rest by this lake for a while, so everyone has a share, and there is no need to worry about drunk driving anyway.

Today is a picnic, no distinction between dignity and inferiority, the emphasis is on a fun and casual, the rules are not said, everyone first made a small cup of Moutai, a stronger sauce fragrance spread in the mouth, the aroma rushed up, so that the nose from the inside out, have smelled the fragrance.

After pouring it for everyone, Zeng Zhi raised his glass and said, "Come on, leaders, let's have one first." Everyone eats food after drinking, and you are welcome. ”

As the host of the wine table, Zeng Zhi is responsible for making the wine and the food, so that the guests can feel the enthusiasm of the host, in the eyes of today's city people, it feels a little too fake, but most of them are a habit, and the whole place is this habit, which will be called a tradition.

In fact, Zeng Zhi also felt that it was too fake, and he was almost not allowed to eat by himself, but all the people present today were considered guests, and all of them were leaders, so he could only follow some rules.

After everyone did it together, some leaders in the township planned to be polite, after all, it was in front of the big leaders. However, when they got off their chopsticks, they didn't care so much because the dishes were so delicious. Especially when everyone saw that Chen Yongping was not polite at all, they had no scruples.

There weren't many cold dishes, and they were almost swept away in a few clicks. Fortunately, the hot dish came up quickly, and now no one is really welcome.

As the host, after everyone has a drink, it's time to toast, and the arrangement is smooth according to the status or importance of the errand. The local cups are small cups, only one or two cups, which is convenient for toasting, and a few more toasts will not fall down immediately.

Zeng Zhi took a breath and saluted one by one, and everyone praised Zeng Zhi for his good drinking, and the atmosphere was very warm.

Taking advantage of the drinking, Chen Yongping took the opportunity to taste a piece of grilled fish, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he exclaimed: "Good fish, chewing is really strong, and the spicy aroma can't hide the aroma of the fish, this is the best fish I have eaten in recent years." ”

Peng Zhengwang also tasted a piece, and nodded again and again, praising the good fish. This fish is a grass carp weighing seven or eight pounds, and the quality of the meat is considered to be at the middle and upper level of freshwater fish. If it is pure wild, the meat quality will be better, and Zeng Zhi added the secret realm aura spring water to the big depression, which can add a little bit of deliciousness.

Another red carp was cut by Pan Huifang with a squirrel flower knife, patted with dry powder, fried in oil, and poured with tomato sauce, it became a special dish, called squirrel fish, suitable for all ages, both men and women.

After this dish was served, it was immediately robbed by everyone. Although the carp has many spines, as long as it is handled properly, the taste is not to be said, and everyone is full of fragrance when they eat it, and they can't stop it.

"I've never eaten such delicious fish...... "Yuan Ling, the girl, didn't care about keeping the girl's reserve in front of the leaders, and said while eating.

Zeng Zhi, a person who has been raised by the ingredients of the Qinglian Secret Realm and has a tricky taste, thinks that this table of wine and food is excellent, not to mention others.

After the squirrel fish is served, the pickled wild boar meat is served with sharp peppers, and a shredded pepper is fried, which immediately detonates everyone's appetite, fresh and spicy and delicious, with fine wine, and some people drink too much unconsciously.

When the crucian carp soup came up, no one could drink it. However, stimulated by the strong aroma, everyone drank at least a large bowl.

The picnic lasted more than two hours before it came to an end.

After removing all the leftovers and cold burning, Zeng Zhi made another pot of tea and poured a cup for everyone, which was regarded as sobering tea.

Although it is a local habit, many people know that drinking tea after drinking is not good for the body, so drink it if you want to drink it, and drink plain water if you don't want to drink it.

Chen Yongping took a sip of tea and exclaimed: "Xiao Zeng, today I just found out that your home is a treasure." Not to mention the vegetables and fruits you grow, a pot of wild tea brewed casually is actually a rare good tea. ”

"This tea is very ordinary, and after a while, I will let you taste one of the best tea leaves I treasure, and that will be amazing." Zeng Zhi said with a modest smile.

These tea leaves are actually produced in their family's tea garden, because the aura spring water is watered before picking, so that the tea leaves already carry some spiritual energy. What's more, he also added half a cup of Qinglian Secret Realm's aura spring water to the water in which he made tea.

Otherwise, with the local wild tea, although the quality is good, it can't enter Chen Yongping's eyes, so you must work the water.

And the best tea that Zeng Zhi said was the tea produced by the tea trees he planted in the Qinglian Secret Realm. Some time ago, he transplanted some tea trees in the Qinglian Secret Realm, because the Qinglian Secret Realm has a very obvious function of accelerating the growth and maturity of all products, and now these tea trees have begun to produce tea.
