Chapter 155: Reluctance

In the afternoon, Xiaocao had already bought two ducks from Mao's side, put the duck blood in a small basin, and the duck's internal organs were marinated together with the pig's head meat and large intestines.

At this time, the braised pork had just come out of the pot, and a strong fragrance wafted throughout the courtyard. As soon as the Emperor Taishang entered the courtyard gate, he sniffed vigorously, with an intoxicated expression, and muttered: "This is the smell!" It's still a braised pig's head made by a little girl, and the taste is authentic! ”

Seeing the fans drying in the yard, he laughed: "I said that the little girl will definitely be able to get it!" Isn't it!! Girl, little girl! Add a 'pork stewed vermicelli'!! ”

Yu Xiaocao poked his head out of the kitchen, greeted the Emperor Taishang and the Zhao family one by one, and then rolled his eyes at the person who made the request: "Fifth master, if you can conjure pork, I will make you pork stewed vermicelli!" ”

"Look, I'm crying with my grandfather and I'm poor!! I bought a lot of money from you last time, so I can't afford to eat pork? Hey! The little girl is getting bolder and bigger, dare to roll her eyes with the master? "Although the Emperor Taishang is not young, his eyes are not dazzling or deaf, so he naturally did not miss Xiaocao's big white eyes.

Yu Xiaocao has now basically figured out the temper of the Emperor Taishang, if he wanted to cure his own crimes, she would have been punished eight hundred times. She boldly made a big grimace at the emperor, and said with a hippie smile: "How can there be? You've always misread it - the duck blood vermicelli soup will be ready soon, Fifth Master, you can sit down for a while. ”

The house town was stunned by the daring behavior of his goddaughter, who was the emperor who was powerful and decisive. In order to take his daughter's life, he hurriedly interceded for her: "Fifth master, those who don't know are not guilty." She's still a child, so don't be like him. ”

Emperor Taishang learned from Yu Xiaocao's appearance, gave the house town a big white eye, and said, "Do you still need to talk too much?" For the sake of duck blood vermicelli soup, I will forgive you this time - braised pig's head and pig ears, cut one first, mix with garlic!! ”

Yu Xiaocao was busy in the kitchen, and Xiaolian brought the sliced pork head meat, red oil ear shreds, green onion fried fat sausage, spicy pork belly, stir-fried pork liver, and five-flavor spicy duck. The portion of the dish was sufficient, and there was enough for the guards. As for the eunuch Zhang Quan, he was sent back by the emperor as soon as he had lunch.

Originally, the meal was very well prepared, but the Emperor Taishang and General Fang were both super big stomachs, and with the four members of the Zhao family, they were a little stretched. The two stoves in the kitchen are all boiling, one is stewed with duck soup, and the other Yu Xiaocao is wielding a spatula and stir-frying a few vegetarian dishes.

"Come, come, come! You're welcome! Try the craftsmanship of the little grass girl!! The Emperor Taishang sat on a simple wooden bench, staring at a table of meat dishes with bright eyes, and his chopsticks were unceremoniously clipped.

The Yu family's new table is not big, and it is indeed a bit crowded to sit six big men. With the great god of the Emperor Taishang, no one else can let go. Fortunately, the Emperor Taishang doesn't have any shelves, and the way he eats makes people look appetizing. When he ate it, he gave General Zhao Zimo a chopstick and shared the food with him. General Zhao was flattered.

Eating the fragrant pig's head meat, crispy ear silk, and fat large intestine, the Emperor Taishang felt that this was the taste he wanted, and he really wanted to stay in Dongshan Village and not leave!

When he was almost finished, the Emperor Taishang looked at the fans drying in the courtyard and sighed again: "I really miss the taste of pork stewed vermicelli!" After decades of thinking, I don't know if I can still eat ...... in this life."

General Zhao Zimo looked at the heroic leader of the rebel army on the battlefield, his hair was gray at this time, there were more wrinkles, and his waist was not as tough as before, and he felt a sigh of "heroic twilight". He asked softly, "Is it difficult to make pork stewed vermicelli?" Pork I know, what is this vermicelli? The minister is lonely and unheard, and this is the first time I have heard of it. ”

"Ahh The Emperor Taishang nodded at the strips hanging on the bamboo poles in the courtyard and said, "That's the noodles." I didn't expect me to say this, and the little girl really made it out. Although the thickness is not very uniform, the taste should not be much worse! Now everything is ready, only the pork is owed! If there was fatty pork belly, it would be even better! Alas! Dongshan Village is still too remote, and there is not even a pork seller! ”

The town of the house is also quite interested in the "pork stewed vermicelli" that the Emperor Taishang remembers. He suddenly had an idea, stroked his palms and smiled: "Fifth master, Dongshan Village doesn't sell pork, but there are pig farmers!" If you really want to eat it, let's buy a big fat pig and kill it now......"

"Mingzhe!!" Zhao Zimo really has nothing to do with his own occasionally unreliable apprentice. In the more than ten years of conquest at the beginning of the founding of the country, I don't know how this bastard survived, and his words are simply not brains.

Housetown lowered his head like a child who had said the wrong thing, glanced at the master secretly, and quickly withdrew his gaze.

Zhao Zimo glared at him hatefully, what kind of bad idea did this bastard have? Nowadays, the saint advocates frugality and has a high reputation among the people. If you let someone know that the Emperor Taishang killed a pig in order to eat a dish, it will damage the royal reputation! This stinky boy, do you want to be a gossip courtier?

"Grandpa, there's still a piece of pork hanging from the well in our backyard! But it's not pork belly, it's leg meat that is suitable for fat and thin! "The lady of the Zhao family usually does not go out of the door, and the purchase at home is basically the responsibility of Zhao Han's father and son, so he still knows a little about the inventory at home.

The Emperor Taishang clapped his hands and laughed, and said, "Leg meat is fine!" As long as there is a pig's head, Han boy, go and bring the pork! Today, I can finally eat stewed vermicelli with pig's head! Originally, I was still planning to stay in Dongshan Village for a day and a half tomorrow in order not to leave regrets! ”

When the commander of the guards who was dining in another place heard this, his heart, liver and lungs trembled. When he came, the emperor gave him a death order to bring the emperor back to the imperial city safely within five days. The way back and forth was delayed for at least two days, and today I have spent a whole day in Dongshan Village, and I was thinking about going back to Fucheng tomorrow, resting for half a day, and returning to Beijing early the day after tomorrow.

If it is delayed for another day, who knows if the emperor will have any moths on the way back. If he had returned to Beijing on a whim, he wouldn't have been able to complete it! Hearing the Emperor say this, he wanted to cry! Fortunately, the Zhao family has pork. He had never been so happy and excited about a piece of pork!

Tonight, the Emperor finally satisfied his appetite. Not only did I taste the delicious duck blood vermicelli soup, but I also tasted the authentic pork stewed vermicelli. Although it is a pity that there is no alcohol, he is very satisfied.

In the evening, Emperor Taishang rested at Zhao's house. The Zhao family trembled and guarded all night, for fear that something would make a disturbance and alarm the Emperor Taishang. The guards were even more miserable, because the room was not enough, they were stunned and stayed in the courtyard all night wrapped in quilts on a cold spring night. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong all night, and the Zhao family and the guards were relieved!

Before leaving the next day, Emperor Taishang specially went to Yu's house and packed the remaining vermicelli in the yard and the pickled vegetables that he planned to sell at the dock today! When he returned to the capital, he would never have the opportunity to eat such authentic braised vegetables again!

Alas, does he want to build a separate courtyard or something in Xishan? Go back and ask Manager Liu if the budget in the house is enough. If it's not enough, why don't you borrow some from your sons and grandchildren?

In the capital, several princes and princes sneezed a few times in unison, and there was a chill on their bodies: This is the rhythm of bad luck!!

Zhu Junyang, the little prince who was drifting on the sea, also sneezed loudly. He rubbed his nose, looked in the direction of the motherland, and said in his heart: It must be the mother concubine who is thinking about him again. I have been at sea for nearly half a year, and the days of sailing at sea are both exciting and boring, but fortunately, this batch of ships has been improved, not only much stronger, but also a lot faster than ever!

It is believed that he will be able to return to the voyage smoothly in the near future. If you're lucky, you can still accompany your father and mother to spend the Dragon Boat Festival! When I was with my parents, I didn't feel that once I left, that kind of longing was really worrying. Zhu Junyang is looking forward to this day!

Sending away the big Buddha of the Emperor Taishang, Yu Xiaocao didn't have a few days of ease, but ushered in the day of farewell to the Zhao family.

In order to see off the Zhao family, Xiaocao prepared a table of good dishes very ceremoniously, and ordered roast chicken and salted duck from Zhenyulou, and also took a stall of good wine from others.

On this day, it was just in time for the small stone to rest. He looked at Zhao Han reluctantly at the dinner table, and said with a slight choked voice: "Brother Han, can you not leave?" I'm going to miss you! ”

In the days before the separation, Zhao Han, who could hunt, became a ray of sunshine in his dark life. Brother Han took his second sister and him to catch prey in the dense forest, roast game in the valley, and catch fish and stew soup in the stream...... Although his living conditions are much more prosperous now than before his family, those days have become the best place in his memory.

After the separation, in the most difficult days, it was Brother Han who sent some prey from time to time to help them get through the most difficult moments. Later, the second sister relied on her craftsmanship to make the whole family live a rich life, but Brother Han's image in his heart is still extremely tall. In his little heart, the combination of Brother Han and the second sister is a seamless match.

If...... Brother Han can not go, how good it would be!

Zhao Han touched the little guy's head, after a few months of studying in the town, the little guy not only grew flesh, but also jumped up in size. Coupled with the well-fitting Confucian costume, it has a bit of a boy's taste.

Zhao Han was also very sad at this time, Dongshan Village was the place where he was born and raised. Although life here is poor, it is very stable; It carries all his fond memories here; Here, there are also people and things he cares about.
