050 Benzoin and kebabs
"Whoever eats it will be theirs," Sun Miao rolled her eyes lazily, picked up the bowl, and simply drank the soup.
Ah Tao was angry, she couldn't control it for a while, she forgot to keep the teacher's pride, and her eyes were red: "You! This is the flesh cake that the princess just taught the kitchen today! I waited in line for a long time to get it! β
Being bullied by a newcomer like this, Teacher A Tao, who is in charge of education work, trembled with anger, and tears that had not been shed since coming to Xixian County flowed again.
Sun Miao clicked her lips, and was very surprised in her heart, such a delicious cooking cake was actually a recipe given by Princess Rui, not made by the kitchen itself?
"Then have you ever eaten bone broth noodles? That's also Princess Rui's secret ingredient? She asked Tao curiously.
Ah Tao has already started to look for foreign aid at this time: "Ah Ji, Ah Yue, come over and take care of this newcomer together!" β
At this time, someone persuaded Sun Miaomiao next to him: "Newcomer, why don't you hurry up and make a new meal for Teacher A Tao?" If you offend her, do you still want to go to school in the future? Now that they've started to talk about the second volume of the first grade of elementary school, you don't want to be a village girl who can't read big characters, right? β
Seeing that she didn't know why, the person who persuaded her hurriedly added a few words: "Teacher Tao and Teacher A Ji Teacher A Yue are both stewards in the palace, so the power in your hands is great, if you want to stay in the palace, you can't offend them!" β
Sun Miaomiao said with a strange face: "As a steward, it's too cowardly, right?" I have the ability to tell them to beat me! How could there be such a cowardly steward in other palaces? It's all whipping and beating people, who is talking nonsense with you? β
The people who persuaded her couldn't cry or laugh: "In our Ruiwang Mansion, there are no fights, and those who fight will be expelled from public office, if you don't want to be kicked out of Ruiwangfu, you can restrain yourself - except for Ruiwangfu, which one has such delicious food, such a high salary, and clothes all year round?" β
Sun Miao was really surprised at this time.
Not to mention anything else, the hearts of the people under the Rui Wangfu are really loyal, and they actually have such a high sense of belonging to this palace?
Where in the world can people be so loyal on the outside? Actually carrying the master behind his back and still maintaining the house?
Except for here in Ruiwangfu, she really hasn't seen it.
The thought in her mind raced, and when Aji and the two sisters stood in front of her and looked at her with fierce eyes, she immediately relented.
"Can't I give the money?" Sun Miaomiao impatiently took out a certain amount of silver and threw it on the table, "It's enough for you to buy two cooking cakes, right?" β
Ah Tao said fiercely: "I don't want your money, I want the meal I didn't eat just now!" I'm going to eat the pulp cake! β
Ah Ji persuaded him humbly: "Forget it, they are all masters and masters, and they will take away their temperament, there is no such meal and that rice, just eat a bite." β
Ah Yue stared at Sun Miaomiao thoughtfully: "Are you new here?" Who introduced you? β
Sun Miaomiao didn't expect a bite of delicious food, and caused trouble to herself, so she said casually: "My sister-in-law." β
Ah Yue asked, "What's your sister-in-law's name?" In which department do you work in? Who is the line leader? β
Who can answer her words?
Sun Miaomiao decisively took the case and prepared to leave.
As soon as she got up here, someone grabbed her arm.
"Take your money back and get me a new meal!" Ah Tao was in tears, and at the same time said with a tough attitude, "Put the food here again, and you have to apologize to me!" β
At this time, Sun Miaomiao's impatience has reached its peak, she has not been provoked like this since she came out of the rivers and lakes, as a closed disciple of the Poison Hand Medicine King, who is not respectful to her wherever she goes?
Looking at Ah Tao's hand that caught him, Sun Miaomiao asked with a vicious look: "Don't want the hand anymore?" β
In the next moment, Ah Tao's hands were blistered, and she let go of her hand with a scream as if she was burned, and her Chinese medicine hand only trembled.
In Sun Miaomiao's consciousness, as long as she showed her hand, the people around her should retreat and let her go with awe.
Who knew that this was not the case here in the Rui Palace-
In the sound of brushing tables and chairs, Sun Miao was surrounded by people, and the people who surrounded him were all the people who came to eat in the cafeteria, including but not limited to Ah Tao and the three of them.
I only heard Ah Yue shouting and asking: "You are not from Rui Wangfu!" Who are you? β
Sun Miaomiao never thought that a little steward of the palace would have such a smart mind, and she was recognized in three or two sentences.
"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you." She rolled her eyes and flew up, brushed twice, and flew out of the cafeteria on top of everyone's heads, like a harrier.
Ah Ji also reacted at this time: "Go and protect the princess!" Is this assassin trying to kill the princess? β
Brush and pull, no matter whether there is a person who eats or not, even Ah Tao, an injured person, rushed out of the cafeteria desperately, and rushed towards the place where Princess Rui was, and the thoughts in everyone's hearts were surprisingly unanimous: Don't have anything to do with the princess!
*
Sun Miaomiao was like no one in the Ruiwang Mansion, her body was like a ghost, and the sky was already dark, so she really hadn't been noticed for a while.
She thought that if she left Rui Wangfu now, she would invisibly admit her failure, which would be too face-giving.
So not only can't she leave, but she also has to find Princess Rui, get rid of Princess Rui, complete this mission, and leave with a swagger.
After scurrying around aimlessly for a while, Sun Miaomiao strayed into the depths of a garden.
At this moment, a wisp of incomparably mysterious, strange fragrance like the sound of the Nine Heavens rushed into her nostrils.
It was a mixture of charcoal, grains, meat, vegetables, benzoin and honey.
Benzoin fennel, an expensive spice in the Western Regions, has become the exclusive domain of princes and nobles since it was introduced into the capital, and those who are noble and wealthy like the three princes cannot use benzoin to entertain guests at every meal.
Therefore, Sun Miaomiao has not eaten the dishes cooked with benzoin fennel, but the quantity is very small, and the spices in the dish are not used much, which is not as rich and rich as the benzoin in the back garden of this remote county.
The taste is so timeless and charming, with the magic of seduction, as if a big hand invisibly grasped all of Sun Miaomiao's senses, as a standard foodie, and she had a large amount of food, she couldn't help but fly over with the aroma.
As the target got closer and closer, the aroma became more and more intense and domineering, originally just if there was nothing, but now it was like substance, like a fine and dense net, tightly covering Sun Miaomiao.
In the quiet little garden, a small charcoal stove has a shelf on it, with a dark red flame below, and a string of various ingredients strung together by wooden skewers above, and a pair of slender jade hands are fiddling with the food that is strung together, and these hands seem to glow with a soft light like white jade under the moonlight.
The skewers are turned over, greased with oil, sprinkled with salt and sprinkled with spices, and the aroma of the charcoal fire is so refreshing that you can't take your eyes off the ingredients.
The owner of the jade white finger raised his eyes and smiled lightly in the direction of Sun Miao, and said softly and weakly: "The night is cool and refreshing, just suitable for eating barbecue and drinking wine, the spices are given by wealthy businessmen, and the wine is also the sherbet that he entrusted someone to bring from Jiangnan, it's so boring to eat alone, how about sitting down to eat and drink together?" β
Sun Miaomiao approached quickly and unceremoniously sat down opposite her.
The heavens and the earth are not as big as the appetite of the mouth.
Heavenly King Lao Tzu has to wait until she is satisfied.
Therefore, the artist was bold and consciously not afraid of the "poisonous hand medicine lady" who poisoned her at all, so she unceremoniously picked up the skewers that Pei Qing had grilled by herself, and opened her mouth to pick it up.
I don't know what kind of meat it is, it is soft and tender, and it seems to have other spices in it besides benzoin fennel, so that this meat has no fishy smell at all, and it also hides its variety.
After eating a bunch of meat, Sun Miao didn't know what kind of meat he had eaten.
As soon as she threw away the empty wooden skewers, the slender hand handed her another string.
"Try these honey wings." Pei Qing said to the uninvited guests attentively.
Sun Miaomiao first looked at the things in her hand, and she could see that the skewer was wearing two chicken wings, which were oily and shiny, and fragrant.
When you enter the mouth, the chicken skin is crispy and sweet, mixed with a strong benzoin flavor, but the meat inside is extremely soft and tender with a faint salty aroma, and this contradictory feeling of sweetness and saltiness and aroma intertwined together hits the mouth, and people can't help but want to eat even the bones.
Sun Miao finished eating a string of chicken wings in a daze, and felt that the whole person was awakened, especially his appetite.
Everything she had eaten in various parts of Xixian County today seemed to have turned into water and disappeared, and her whole person was hungry.
"Try this string of treasures again." The woman in charge of the baking gently handed her new food.
Sun Miaomiao took this string of things with strange names and put them in her mouth, but she tasted a crispy and elastic texture, only a little bit of aroma and umami that could not be detected by the ballistics, but it was very interesting, chewing in her mouth and rattling, she could eat 100 skewers of such things!
Now Sun Miaomiao looked at the delicate woman standing behind the flames, as if she was looking at a living Bodhisattva.
"And charcoal-grilled steaks." Pei Qing smiled and handed her a palm-sized piece of meat, "If it is loosened with a loose meat hammer, it should not be firewood." β
Sun Miaomiao didn't know what a loose meat hammer was, but that didn't prevent her from eating meat - the meat was soft and crispy, the skin was crispy on the outside, but there was juice on the inside, and she didn't know how the meat was pickled.
Is this so-called grilled steak a little salty, and it seems to be sprinkled with a little more salt on the surface?
Sun Miaomiao began to feel thirsty.
At this time, the sound of pouring water was heard.
In an uproar, the slender jade hand held a jade pot, and was pouring wine into a small jade cup, and the aroma of the wine instantly overflowed.
There were two glasses of wine in total, Pei Qing picked up one by himself first, did not toast, put it in his mouth and drank it dry, and then spit out with satisfaction.
Sun Miaomiao looked at the remaining glass of wine, naturally snatched it unceremoniously, and poured it into his mouth.
It turned out to be grape fruit wine, the taste was a little bland, Sun Miao pursed her lips, she didn't like this kind of wine from the Western Regions very much, but it was good to drink it as water.
She could clearly tell that there was nothing else in the drink, and there was no poison or medicineβlet alone any poison or medicineβand you were not welcome.
The steak is followed by roasted shiitake mushrooms, which were collected by Wang Ergou when he took people up the mountain, all of them are very fresh, the skin is cracked, and the flame exudes a wonderful aroma.
Pei Qing handed the roasted shiitake mushrooms to the stranger who broke into the back garden: "This is a specialty of our former county, I'm sorry for myself." β
How could Sun Miaomiao allow herself to be sorry for herself? Of course, it's a big meal.
The grilled shiitake mushrooms are followed by a crispy, soft and sweet little crispy fish that tastes like it is, smeared with honey on the outside, with the sultry aroma of charcoal fire.
Sun Miaomiao has never eaten pure sweet fish.
It should be very greasy, but because the skin is crispy and the fish meat is soft and tender, it is very sweet in the mouth, and even the bones are baked, and you can swallow it after chewing it twice.
At this time, Sun Miaomiao saw that the woman opposite was baking cooking cakes, what is there to test about cooking cakes? It didn't taste like anything in the first place, and she didn't bother to eat it usually - unless it was the flesh cake she had just eaten today.
Thinking like this, when handing her a skewer of roasted browned blow cakes, Sun Miaomiao said with some hesitation: "I still want to eat meat ......."
The delicate and sweet woman smiled lightly, but her tone could not be ignored: "This is the essence of barbecue, if you don't eat grilled steamed bread, barbecue is equal to nothing." β
Sun Miaomiao finally took it and stuffed it into his mouth, not to mention, it was very fragrant, the taste of benzoin fennel was full, but it was a little salty...... The saltier the better.
In this way, eating sweet and salty food alternately, Sun Miaomiao's mouth became more and more thirsty, and he drank more and more wine.
At the beginning, she relied on her own medicinal body cultivated by her master's father, and was not afraid of all kinds of poisons, so she was unscrupulous about everything, but she had a point for wine.
Later, when I ate more and more, I wanted to remind myself to drink less and less alcohol, and finally Biu disappeared as soon as she disappeared, so she let go of the amount and drank alcohol, and even when all the food was eaten, she still drank until the glass was dry, and drank more and more.
And the mysterious woman's wine seemed endless, no matter how much Sun Miao drank, she could take out a pot of wine again and fill it for her.
The flames in the barbecue stove were weakened, and there were a mess of skewers on the ground, but Sun Miao was still drinking grape and fruit wine.
By this time, her eyes had begun to straighten, and she thought she was very conscious.
"Do you know who I am?" Sun Miaomiao wanted to point to her nose, but instead pointed to her left ear.
The gentle woman who was a master of cooking smiled and asked, "So, who are you?" β
Sun Miaomiao tried to straighten her tongue to make her tone less blurred: "I'm from the capital, you know, I'm coming here, what are you doing?" β
Another glass of wine was filled, and the owner of the slender jade hand asked lightly, "So, what are you here for?" β
Sun Miaomiao's eyes were drunk, and she smiled unscrupulously: "I'm here to get the head of Princess Rui." β
