Chapter 17: The Autumn Banquet (Part II)

Sanxi rushed back to Zhongfu Jinghua Xie from Xifu in order to find Zisu.

At first, Yu Qi came to the banquet and asked Zisu to follow, but Zisu was unwilling. The crux of her heart took root when she entered this mansion, and she didn't want to see more people in the mansion.

Yu Qi does not force it.

Now because the old lady wants to listen to "Luo Shen Fu Song", she will follow her personal feelings, one is to comfort the old lady, the second is to raise the face of the county lord, the third is to attract the sisters to look at it differently, the fourth is to give a good impression to the people on the other side of the pavilion, and the fifth is to mourn his father and mother.

It should not be at this time, but it is unbearable.

I want to vent the grief in my heart again.

In the old days in the south, Yu Qi, Zisu, and Xuan Yao made friends, and Yu Qi and Xuan Yao fell in love with foreign goods, and they also knew some music theory, and Zi Su knew the rhythm of ancient books. It's only been a few years, and Xuan Yao went to Kyoto to enter the palace, otherwise, the three of them will be amazing.

Don't think about it now, the directional plan, let Sanxi return to the mirror and thank you.

At the time of the covered bridge, Yu Qi quietly said to Sanxi: "You tell Sister Zisu that I am in trouble, and I will not be able to move forward without her." Let my sister put down her face and help me. At the same time, when I went to the compartment, there was a guqin piled up in the corner of the secret door, and I brought the guqin with me. Again, when I went out of the yard, I picked a handful of bamboo leaves. Let my sister think about the "Roselle Comedy" that she discussed with Yu Yu back then. My sister must understand that this is what I meant. ”

Listening to Sanxi repeat Yu Li's words, Zisu did not hesitate at all after hearing it, and went straight to the compartment to find the guqin.

found the guqin, and picked a handful of bamboo leaves outside the courtyard according to Yu Qi's wishes, and the two hurried to Xifu Loutaiyue. Just outside the Zhongfu, I was about to go west, when I suddenly saw a group of girls from the north running in a panic to this side, some hiding behind the locust tree, and some running into the Zhongfu.

Sanxi and Zisu saw that the situation was not right, and they also hid behind the bamboo.

After a while, I saw the two people from the first household of the second master's mansion coming with a few capable servants panting, looking around, as if looking for something. Because a girl ran behind and came to Sanxi and Zisu, Sanxi was bold and rushed up to grab it.

Sanxi asked, "What are you running?" Weird and scary. ”

The girl was shocked and said, "Uncle has come out, he is more powerful than ever, and he is still smashing people with stones!" ”

The girl shook off Sanxi's hand violently, and also ran to Shouzhong to hide.

Sanxi panicked, pushed the guqin in his arms to Zisu, and wanted to run to Beifu.

Zi Su had just heard such danger, how could he let Sanxi go, and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Sanxi broke free, and while running, he said, "You go to the girl's side first." Huiyuan is in Beifu! ”

Zisu panicked when he heard this. I can't move left and right, I want to go to Xifu, I don't know the way, I don't know when I want to wait here. was hesitating, and saw Sanxi hugging his head and turning back.

Later, Uncle Zhuang held up a stone, and Zisu didn't care about the danger, holding the guqin to cover his head for Sanxi.

Said late, came quickly, and suddenly, Zhuang Ji threw a stone with one hand, and it was smashing on the guqin.

I heard a loud "buzz" sound.

Zisu was shocked, knowing that the strings must have been broken.

The two squatted on the ground, covered their heads with a guqin, humming and humming. I thought that Zhuang Ji would definitely do something to them when he came, but fortunately, a few people from the first household of Qian Zhuang heard the sound and rushed to it, so they hugged Zhuang Ji and tied him up and went to Dongfu.

After walking a few steps, Zhuang Hu came from Dongfu Road with Dao Feng Jianqiu and other girls.

Zhuang Hu's voice said, "What's going on?" What's going on? He said again and again: "Quick, carry it back and carry it back!" ”

Seeing Zhuang Hu slightly straighten her clothes and calm her mind, she found Sanxi and Zisu squatting on the ground not far away.

Zhuang Hu walked towards them, and at this time, Zisu and Sanxi had already stood up from the place.

Zhuang Hu looked at the two of them, saw that they were not injured, and saw that the strings of the guqin were broken, and only said: "Have you ever been injured?" ”

Sanxi Se retracted and was fine, but Zisu held the piano with a side face and did not answer.

At this time, the Cao family was helped by two girls in Guiyuan Yuyuan, and there was another girl in the back to help a person, and at the end were Zhuang Xuan's girl Wanjin and Zhuang Ying's girl Ziyuan.

The three likes to wait and see, saw Huiyuan, and saw Huiyuan's cloak, as if he had experienced an unbearable encounter. It was also a look of fright.

Sanxi pulled Lazisu, Zisu turned his look, but he didn't see Huiyuan, because he saw Cao's first, he quickly turned his face and refused to face it.

Where did Sanxi prompt Zisu Huiyuan over there, pulled out his legs and ran to Cao's side, and grabbed Huiyuan.

When Cao saw Zhuang Hu, he slapped his chest and said in a trembling voice: "But it scared me, the uncle just ran over." I asked for someone, saying that I had sent away some of his Bichi. Where did this word come to him? ”

Zhuang Hu smiled slightly, went to support Cao's family, with a sense of comfort, and said: "Let my wife be frightened, I will tell our wife when I turn around, let my wife come and compensate my wife." Right now, the old lady is on the side of Loutaiyue in Xifu, so don't ruin her old man's interest. Motioned to Cao's to look at the guqin that Zisu was holding.

Seeing Zisu's proud appearance, the Cao family was already unhappy, so he smiled coldly, turned his head and went to Beifu, and did not take Zhuang Hu's words.

Rest, Zhuang Hu walked up to Huiyuan, brushed her hair, and said, "Jianqiu, go to my house and get some makeup, how can this color be good." Jianqiu took the order, because he said to Huiyuan again: "Girl, don't remember this in your heart, Uncle Zuo is just confused for a while, I will go back and tell you girls, you also mention it to the big guy at this juncture." It is not easy for the guests to know about the affairs of the house, so as not to make people laugh. Do you think so? ”

Huiyuan committed herself to give a salute and smiled hard: "Uncle is looking for something in a hurry, and nothing has happened." Please rest assured, big girl. ”

Huiyuan was so decent, Zhuang Hu was very satisfied, and then said to Wan Jin, Zi Yuan and other girls: "Did you hear clearly?" ”

The people spoke as if they had been commanded, and they made it clear.

Zhuang Hu smiled: "Then you can go over." ”

Sanxi was still worried about Huiyuan, so he took her hand and refused to let go, and Zisu also came over at this time and said a few words of relief. Huiyuan shook her head and only said that it was okay.

On the ground, Sanxi and Zisu are in a general state of mind, wondering what Huiyuan met in Beifu? It's so good.

On the way back to Loutaiyue, Sanxi wanted to ask Wanjin and Ziyuan many times, but Zisu insisted on holding her back, and she behaved like Lu Qi

When he arrived at the shore of the Moon Covered Bridge on the floor, Zisu whispered to Sanxi: "Don't bother your girl, forget what you just happened for a while." It's not too late to ask Huiyuan when you go back. ”

Covered bridge above.

Yu Qi and the others were discussing how to do the emperor snail that day.

The old lady told everyone: "The first emperor liked to eat this snail, and he also entered from the South China Sea and the North Sea, and then heard that the snail of the Emperor of Siam Buddha was the cleanest, and he came back from there every year." If you want to say the method of this snail, I don't know, when I arrived at the Queen Mother, I ate it, it was simmered in soup, the taste was delicious, and it was fishy. ”

Among the people, they can eat this product, or no one can compare to the Cao family, and the county lord may not have seen and eaten it, only in recent years, the sea products that have entered the palace have passed from their palace, so Su Yuan has to be like this. Aunt Xi is from a merchant background, if she says that she has eaten and seen, it is also possible.

When Aunt Su saw that Su Yuan and the county lord were a family, Su Yuan refused to speak out, and the county lord must not be willing either, so she pointed to Aunt Xi and said, "I think Aunt Xi should know, why not give a proposal." ”

Aunt Xi was stunned suddenly, usually it is not her turn to have a head and face, which made her propose, and she looked flattered.

The old lady said, "Then you say, what to do, so that the cook can do it quickly." ”

Zhuang Ying saw that Aunt Xi refused to say for a long time, so she said: "If you want me to say, boil it in water, cook it like eating a big sea crab, smash the shell and care if the meat is good, just pick it and eat it." ”

The old lady and the others laughed because of this.

Aunt Xi said: "I ate it when I was a child, and it was not as big as this thing, it was just a pot of boiling, and I picked it with a hairpin to eat." ”

Zhuang Pu said: "Such a big snail, you need an iron pestle-like hairpin to pick it up, right?" ”

Because she made everyone laugh again, Aunt Xi had no face and looked a little uneasy, but after all, she covered it up with a smile.

At this time, Yu Qi said: "This Tiandi snail has to go through several processes before it can become a dish......

Before the voice was finished, I saw Sanxi and Zisu coming. Zisu hugged the guqin, the strings were broken, and her hand was pressed on it, so that no one could see it too much.

I only heard Zisu's voice pick up Yu Qi's words: "This snail was not originally called the Emperor Snail, but our hometown called it the Emperor Snail." First boil the water in the pot, then take a stone to break the tail of the snail, then put in the boiling water to boil about six cups of tea, take it out of the deep well and cool water, and then use the hook to hook out the snail meat. Once you have the meat, cut the dirty dirt at the end, discard it, wash it again, and finally take a knife and cut it into slices. If you want to cook soup, you have to stew the old hen first to get the chicken fragrance, and then put in the snail slices, add ginseng, wolfberry, and ginger. If you want the soup to be delicious, you have to infuse it with deep-sea seawater and boil it for a long time. The soup needs to be served in a rough and unglazed bowl to be delicious. That's why there is no fishy smell.

If you want to eat chewy and fragrant, stir-fry it in lard, add fresh bamboo shoots, and then use some soybean paste as ingredients, add garlic, ginger, cinnamon foam, and dried star anise. If you like the fishy smell, add the crab roe paste. The storage is fragrant and fresh. This snail is the coolest thing, and eating too much will cause abdominal pain and diarrhea. ”

After Zisu finished speaking, everyone was dumbfounded.

finished, only to hear Zhuang Pu clapping his hands and praising "amazing".

The old lady said, "It's hard to eat this dish!" It's a bitter cook! He laughed.

Mr. Guan, Su Yuan, and Cao Yingguan were all amazed, and the girls shook their heads frequently, so they were not envious.

Su Yuan hurriedly asked the cook to do it according to Zisu's method, while still praising it: "It's so detailed, how about the girl who turned around to make a cooking detail for me?" ”

Zisu didn't care about it, and he committed a gift to Sanxi.

Yu Qi was fascinated by it just now, and smiled even brighter after listening to it. After Su Yuan finished speaking, she stood up, turned her head to the old lady and the county lord, and said, "I know that this dish will definitely take a lot of work to make. Didn't the old lady just want to listen to "Luo Shen Fu Song"? I'm afraid that it will disturb the ears and eyes of the old lady and the aunts and sisters, so I advocate calling the girl. Because I heard her say this song a few days ago, and she played it. ”

Zhuang Yu clapped his hands and said, "Then when will it be, hurry up." It's a pity, it would be better if my sister came to play. I just want to listen to my sister play music, before I thought about it, my sister is very affectionate, this piano, chess, calligraphy and painting must not leave home. My sister's piano must be excellent. ”

Yu Qi said: "I don't dare to show my third brother and the guests to laugh, so I can play with Zisu?" ”

Sanxi saw that Yu Qi swore to recommend it to everyone, and the guqin had broken strings on the ground.

Zisu took over coldly and said, "Girl, the strings are broken." ”
