Chapter 118: Cooking

"Second Miss, what kind of chili pepper are you talking about, but this thing?" , An's mother took out two brightly colored dried red peppers from her sleeve.

The little fish's eyes lit up, and he took the dried chili pepper and folded it into a small section and put it in his mouth. Well! It was this taste that Xiaoyu salivated at the thought of finally being able to eat the long-lost chili pepper.

"Mother An, that's it, you still have it, give me more!" , An's mother looked quite surprised, she heard for the first time that this second young lady could cook.

"Second Miss, there is still a small bag in the kitchen, if Second Miss needs it, the slave will go back and get it immediately. It's just that the slave dared to ask, what is the second lady holding the chili pepper for? ”

Xiao Yu casually pointed to the sheep and said, "Of course the roast sheep needs it!" ”

Mother An's eyes lit up suddenly, and she hesitated for a moment and said, "Second Miss, I wonder if the slave can watch how Second Miss cooks it when the time comes?" ”

Xiao Yu nodded and said, "Of course, I taught you, and I won't have to do it in the future!" Ann's mother went happily.

When the chili pepper was brought, Xiaoyu first instructed Mother An to grind the dried chili pepper into chili noodles finely, and then Xiaoyu instructed the two mothers-in-law to lightly coat the sheep with a thin layer of oil inside and out, and then mixed the chili noodles with fine salt to evenly coat the sheep inside and out.

Looking at the roasted sheep with a new look, Xiaoyu thought with a little regret that it was a pity that there was no cumin, otherwise if he sprinkled some cumin, the taste would not be mentioned.

After the sheep has been marinated for a while, Xiao Yufang asks the mother-in-law to put the sheep on the grill.

"Just use this silver frost charcoal to roast slowly, no open flame, you have to be careful, this side is almost baked, just turn it over and bake, remember to brush the oil, and bake it several times. It must not be baked! After Xiaoyu explained the essentials to the mother-in-law, he was still not at ease, and repeatedly told him several times.

"Second Miss, this hasn't been roasted yet, and I think it's delicious when I look at it." Mother Ann stood aside a little excitedly and complimented. It was the first time she had seen such a method of roasting sheep, but when she saw Xiaoyu's determined face, Mother An felt that the roasted mutton in this way must be good for no reason.

Xiaoyu arranged it, and walked into the pavilion to see their mahjong battle, now Qin Xueyi is temporarily down, Liu Yajuan and Meng Qiaoqiao are in a fierce battle.

Seeing Xiaoyu coming in, Liu Yajuan raised her head and beckoned to Xiaoyu: "Sister Xiaoyu, come here, come and help me see if I can win!" ”

Xiao Yu walked to Liu Yajuan's side, and seeing that she had already gathered a full deck, she quietly moved the cards lightly a few times, and then clicked on the vacancies. Liu Yajuan suddenly realized and thanked Xiaoyu softly.

Xiaoyu looked at the cards of the other three girls again, Zheng Hongsleeve is not a card, and the cards in his hand have not been made up.

Iron Coral is the first to play, Liu Yajuan asked for the card she firmly held in her hand, but she didn't play it. Meng Qiaoqiao is making a big pair, as long as he touches one more card, he can wait for the winning card.

Qin Xueyi was not idle, standing behind Zheng Hongsleeve and shouting, so annoyed that Zheng Hongsleeve turned around and pushed her from time to time, asking her to stand elsewhere, it can be seen that the relationship between the two of them is very good.

A few people kept in their hands and mouths.

"Sister Zheng, you will be fifteen this year, and you will have to call me when the time comes!" , Iron Coral said to Zheng Hong's sleeve while touching the cards.

Zheng Hongsleeve replied slowly: "What are you anxious about, I will send a post to invite you sisters when the time comes, but it's you, but remember the tired gold silk amber hairpin that was sent to me last year when I was waiting for me!" ”

Iron Coral played a card and said with a smile: "Sister Zheng, be stingy, a hairpin is remembered until now, rest assured, even if I forgot to send it when you arrived, I will always give it to you when I add a box to you!" As soon as her words came out, Zheng Hongsleeve's face burned red all of a sudden.

"Red Sleeves, so your family affair is decided?" , Qin Xueyi, a curious baby, quickly grasped the information revealed in Iron Coral's words.

"Xueyi, don't listen to the coral chewing the root of the tongue!" , Zheng Hong's sleeves and red eyes chirped.

Iron Coral looked at Zheng Hongsleeve narrowly and said, "Sister Zheng, how can I talk nonsense, I listened to my mother yesterday ......", Zheng Hongsleeve didn't care about everyone's eyes, and half-leaned out and reached out to cover Iron Coral's mouth.

"Okay, okay, what's going on with Red Sleeves, you can also say it, and we will give you details!" , Qin Xueyi stopped Zheng Hongsleeve for Tie Coral while clearing the siege.

"I heard my mother say, the day before yesterday, you went to Huayan Temple to look at ......!" , Iron Coral simply stopped playing mahjong, and said loudly from Zheng Hongsleeve.

Zheng Hongsleeve was so angry that he stomped his feet when he heard this, but he couldn't take the iron coral. When Qin Xueyi heard this, she immediately came to her senses, and gossiped: "Sister Tie, which one is it that you look at, let's talk about it!" Red sleeves, don't be shy, we can also help you inquire about it when the time comes, and see how the future sister and wife are! ”

Zheng Hongsleeves said shyly: "It's the second son of the Duke of Wuguo!" ”

Qin Xueyi frowned and said, "Duke Wu Guo? It was sealed by the emperor in the first time, and his family heard that it had declined! ”

Zheng Hongsleeve plucked up the courage to defend and said: "That's his eldest brother, he ...... He said that after getting married, he would separate and separate! ”

"Oh, Sister Zheng, when did you talk to your future brother-in-law about yourself?" , Iron Coral heard Zheng Hongsleeve say this, and shouted even louder.

"Sango, you can be quiet, don't let those girls outside hear you!" , Qin Xueyi feigned anger.

"It's him...... It was he who took the initiative to ask his aunt to come to my house to propose ......marriage, he said...... He said that on the day of the Huanxue Club, he quietly ran to peek, and he fell in love with me at a glance......", Zheng Hongsleeve was embarrassed, and finally finished talking intermittently.

Xiao Yu saw that although she was shy, her eyes were full of happiness. "And what is your mother's attitude?" , Qin Xueyi couldn't wait to ask.

"My mother said that people look good, I heard that he himself found a third-class guard in front of the palace, that is, the reputation of the Wuguo Mansion is not good, my mother is still a little hesitant, but if it can be separated in the future, and there is no serious mother-in-law to manage it, my mother thinks it is very good. Seriously, my family is still climbing! ”

Liu Yajuan said enviously: "Sister Zheng, you are still blessed, at least that person is willing to ask the elders to propose marriage, and he is also willing to think about the future days." Many of my sisters are blind and dumb marriages, and they don't know who they married until they get married. My mother said that this woman's marriage is equivalent to a second child, and I look at my mother's life, I don't want to get married! ”

Zheng Hongsleeve raised his head suddenly and said, "Sister Liu, I think you are still reasonable, how can you say such a bastard?" Marriage is naturally to marry, but what kind of life you want to live, you still have to work hard, you can't tie your happiness to that person you have never met! ”

When Zheng Hongsleeve said this, he said categorically: "If I marry someone who is not in the future, then I would rather cut my hair and be a sister-in-law!" Xiaoyu was dumbfounded when he heard it, who said that ancient women were three from four virtues, these little girls are still very individual, very thoughtful!

Qin Xueyi sighed and said, "You are all better than me, I was destined to enter the palace from birth!" So I always did whatever I wanted, and my grandmother didn't limit me, after all, maybe the happiest time in my life was before I got married! ”

Speaking of which, a gloomy cloud enveloped everyone, remembering the uncertain future, everyone bowed their heads and touched the cards silently.

Xiao Yu looked at the dull atmosphere, rolled his eyes, clapped his hands and said: "Now the sheep should be roasted, let's go out and have a look, this time it is my unique secret recipe roasted, I promise you have not eaten it!" Speaking of food, a little smile appeared on Qin Xueyi's face.

Everyone walked out of the Bangyue Pavilion, and the smell of roast sheep came to their noses, with a little spicy taste. "Xiaoyu, your roast sheep really smells very attractive!"

Seeing that all the young ladies had come out, Mother An hurriedly rubbed her hands with her apron and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, this sheep will be fine soon, please sit down for a while!" ”

Xiao Yu waved his hand and said, "Mother An, let's sit in front of this sheep today, you hurry up and go to Zhang Luo to gather some chairs around this sheep!" After speaking, Xiaoyu arranged for the mother-in-law to get some wild onions and wild garlic and mash them into a puree, and mix them with fine salt.

After everyone sat down, Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Today, let's also imitate the taste of the ancients drinking wine and eating meat in a big bowl!" After speaking, Xiaoyu asked Mother An to first cut the most tender tenderloin on the roast lamb and distribute it into everyone's bowl.

Xiaoyu first sandwiched a piece of tenderloin, then dipped it in some green onions and garlic, put it in his mouth and said, "You try it, it has a different flavor!" Everyone smiled and was curious to learn from each other.

"Uh-huh! Xiaoyu, your roast lamb is so delicious, isn't this spicy pepper? Qin Xueyi screamed as soon as she took a bite, regardless of the fact that she still had a piece of mutton wrapped in her mouth.

Xiaoyu asked the girls to go to Zhang Luo for wine, and said: "Some sisters and sisters may not be used to this spicy taste, you can taste a small bite first to see if you are used to it!" Don't take a big bite into your mouth! ”

Then Xiaoyu poured a bowl of plum blossom stuffed for Qin Xueyi and Zheng Hongsleeve, who could drink, and the rest of the ladies who couldn't drink poured plum blossom dew.

Meng Qiaoqiao carefully tasted a sip of plum blossom dew, and immediately said with a smile: "Sister Xiaoyu, I just ate spicy mutton, and with this plum blossom dew, it is just right." ”

Qin Xueyi took a big sip of plum blossom brew with her eyebrows, held a leg of mutton, and said to Meng Qiaoqiao: "Sister Meng, it's still strong enough to brew plum blossoms, a big sip of mutton and a big sip of wine, this feels too comfortable!" ”

Tie Coral covered his mouth and smiled: "Sister Qin, look at you like this, if you change into deerskin boots and put on a mink fur Zhaojun set, you will be no different from those women outside the legend!" ”
