When He Xiaoqiao went to the kitchen in the morning to see if the pickled cucumbers were ready, he found that he didn't know who had sent a few lotus roots the size of an adult's palm on the board.

The silt on the lotus root has been cleaned, and one section is hidden under the vegetable leaves, and the white fat water is very cute.

Seeing her staring, Cailian told her that it was bought by Hong Fang on the street, and it looked strange and heard that it tasted very good when cooked, so she sent it directly to the kitchen.

...... "He Xiaoqiao really doesn't know whether to praise Hong Fang for being filial and sensible, or whether to scold him for having a foodie heart."

But this mistake is very satisfying to her, before she was still thinking about what candy snacks to make for the New Year, but now there are materials.

The lotus root slices are stained with icing sugar to make osmanthus sugar lotus root, which is delicious and shelf-stable.

In addition, lotus root can also be made into cold lotus root slices, crispy fried lotus root boxes, honey glutinous rice lotus, salt and pepper lotus root clips and other home-cooked dishes, in winter, serve a bowl of hot lotus root pork rib soup, sprinkled with chives and coriander, the taste is fragrant, so delicious that people can't wait to swallow it with their tongues.

In short, Hong Fang's purchase of the lotus root and sending it to the kitchen is still worthy of praise.

The pickled cucumbers made in the kitchen a few days ago are ready, and they are mixed with pickled radishes, and they taste spicy and crispy.

The porridge was boiled out in a clay pot and buried in the stove after cooking the braised pork last night, and it was more fragrant and glutinous than just adding water and cooking it in a big pot.

He Xiaoqiao cleaned up briefly in the kitchen, Cai Lian and Suo'er helped to brand a few corn tortillas, and the three masters and servants ate them all together with Hong Fang Baishou.

Hong Fang also shouted that the pickled cucumbers were delicious, and he begged He Xiaoqiao pitifully to teach his daughter-in-law how to make it in the future, and was ruthlessly complained by Bai Shou that he would find his daughter-in-law first, and then talk about it, and the wilting appearance amused everyone.

After dinner in the evening, He Xiaoqiao habitually dressed up in men's clothes again, pasted a fake Adam's apple and touched the folding fan and left.

Taking advantage of the good weather now, they still have to go to Yihong Courtyard to see the excitement!

In order to avoid suspicion after mixing in, Hong Fang and Bai Shou were also ordered not to wear short fights.

Without saying a word, Bai Shou changed into a black robe embroidered with green bamboo at the corners, wearing a jade crown on his head, a jade belt around his waist, and a handsome face without expression, and when he stood on the street, the rate of turning back was absolutely 100%.

Hong Fang is a big old man, and it took him a long time to find a robe that he didn't know how many years to make, and it had already turned yellow and put it on.

He Xiaoqiao first looked at his messy beard, and then looked at the robe that didn't match at all, and smiled unkindly on the spot, and finally found a ready-to-wear shop on the road, and asked the shopkeeper to find him a navy blue one to change into, which felt more normal.

Hong Fang touched the new clothes, feeling awkward and satisfied.

Since following He Xiaoqiao, the quality of food has improved by more than one grade, and even the standard of living has risen dramatically, Hong Fang doesn't know what Bai Shou thinks in his heart, in short, he is very glad - fortunately, the person who was transferred back was him and not Hu Qing's old fox, otherwise how could he live such a good life?

"It seems to be a little lonely today......" He Xiaoqiao looked left and right, frowning and muttering.

Although there are not a few pedestrians on the street, it is a little too much to see compared to yesterday, and now there are people on the street except for the stalls doing business, and most of the others are women and children with their hair tied up, and there are few men to see at all.

Hong Fang was also wondering, but Bai Shou told the truth in one sentence, "Those people are at the gate of Yihong Courtyard." ”

Life is too boring, even if you don't have the qualifications to enter the door to watch the scene, it is also enjoyable to take a close position outside and listen to instant gossip.

So He Xiaoqiao and Hong Fang instantly realized that Lan Xin was still so good at her mother, and she could attract thousands of empty alleys anywhere!

Walking to Zhilan Street, the number of people passing by began to increase, and when they arrived at the gate of Yihong Courtyard, they could only be described as crowded.

Today's Yihong Courtyard has been renovated, and the lights at the door are full of joy.

Three meters away from the door, several strong men stood collectively, enclosing a distance to prevent the crowd from occupying the lane for the guests to walk.

Shrewd hawkers carrying baskets selling melon seeds and walnut snacks shuttled through the crowd, shouting two sentences from time to time, and the whole Zhilan Street was full of people, which was more lively than watching a big show during the New Year's holiday.

He Xiaoqiao stood aside and watched for a while, and directly beckoned Hong Fang to walk with Bai Shou to the back alley.

Climb the wall, of course, you can't go through the main entrance.

In addition to the main building, the backyard is also quite open, with stone tables, stone chairs and swing racks, and a row of evergreen trees planted near the courtyard wall, which are still flourishing even in this cold weather.

Bai Shou jumped on the wall in a hurry, and saw that the door of the backyard was open, and an ox cart carrying more than a dozen jars was parked at the door, and two men dressed as turtle slaves were guarding the door with their hands in their sleeves, stomping their feet to keep warm, and shouting loudly to let the people who came to bring wine and food quickly move things into the door.

"How? Can you sneak in? He Xiaoqiao squatted by the wall, looked up at Bai Shou and asked quietly.

"No problem," Bai Shou jumped down from the wall and patted the hem of his clothes with his hand, "Now the two guards are staring at the door, the others are in the kitchen, we just need to go around the other side of the kitchen to enter the main building." ”

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go." He Xiaoqiao was overjoyed, inserted the folding fan on his belt, stood between Hong Fang and Bai Shou, opened his arms and said, "Act according to the original plan." ”

Hong Fang and Bai Shou glanced at each other, and one person lifted He Xiaoqiao's arm at the same time, and at the same time, he flipped directly over the wall lightly, and then fell quietly into the backyard.

The two turtle slaves were still cursing at the door, and occasionally one or two women who looked like cooks came out to fetch water and wash vegetables and pots.

Passing around from the edge of the kitchen, He Xiaoqiao smiled proudly, shook off the folding fan, and swaggered across the place where the girls of Yihong Courtyard lived on weekdays and walked towards the main building.

Because they had to be rich people, Hong Fang and Bai Capital did not bring weapons, but were threatened by He Xiaoqiao with a folding fan.

Bai Shou didn't have a hobby of holding a fan to pretend to be X, so he only held the folding fan in his hand and followed He Xiaoqiao with his hands behind his back without squinting.

Hong Fang saw He Xiaoqiao fanning happily, and he clumsily picked up the folding fan and shook it off in her style. I didn't shake it off once, frowned and pulled it back, and continued to shake it, who knew that if I accidentally threw it too hard, the folding fan came out of my hand, and it slammed into the head of a middle-aged fat man who was talking to others not far away.

The fat man snorted, covered his head and turned around with a scolding, "That bastard smashed Lao Tzu? ”

The people next to him all followed, Hong Fang hurriedly pretended to be casual, looked left and right, didn't even care about the folding fan, and followed He Xiaoqiao without saying a word.

The main building of Yihong Courtyard is very open, there is a large area in the middle that there is no second floor, you can see the beams of the roof at a glance, the beams are hung with red, red, green and green streamers, the second floor in the shape of a ring is divided into many private rooms, there are corridors on all sides to pass, the corridors are equipped with beautifully carved fences, and two red wide ladders with turns are distributed on both sides to connect the upstairs and downstairs.

Directly opposite the entrance is a half-meter-high performance venue, with a red carpet on the stage, and several musicians occupying the dimly lit area.

There are a lot of people in the hall on the first floor, all of them are standing together in twos and threes, talking and laughing with wine glasses in their hands, and there are some men with one or two young girls around them, so that those girls flirt and scold as if they were fed a glass of wine and say two sentences, and they feel that the bones of the whole body are crispy and crispy, and the hatred can not be fulfilled.

There was a warbler sound around, He Xiaoqiao tilted his head and looked at it beside him, and was preparing to try the feeling of warm nephrite in his arms, but he didn't expect that just after taking two steps, a woman who was more than half taller than himself suddenly rushed out, and without saying a word, he shook his handkerchief and came up to greet him, "Yo, the three sons are really handsome!" ”

When he said this, he also glanced at Hong Fang, and threw a sugary wink at him, Hong Fang's face was pale and incompetent.

He Xiaoqiao looked up, and almost didn't let the person who came be frightened by the face with heavy makeup like a palette, and even Bai Capital couldn't help but gasp - this appearance is too challenging to people's psychological bottom line!

Seeing the three of them, the and the beaded woman suddenly seemed to understand something, and touched her face with her hand very shyly, and then waved a handkerchief that was so fragrant that people sneezed in front of He Xiaoqiao, "I hate it!" Why are you looking at people so directly! ”

Bai Shou's cool face instantly cracked, Hong Fang shivered on the spot, and He Xiaoqiao had a surprised expression of digging a treasure, and he couldn't wait to rush up and hold her hands tightly.

"This ...... Girl, what is your last name? ”

The live-action version of Sister Pomegranate! What a touching and nostalgic encounter with Qi Fei!

Probably got the affirmation and satisfaction of her appearance from He Xiaoqiao's surprised appearance, and the woman with heavy makeup couldn't help but giggle, "It's the first time the three sons have come, right?" If you have been here before, you must know the name of my Spring Thirteen Niang. ”

Spring Thirteen Niang? What a name, what a name!

He Xiaoqiao smiled back, and when Chun Thirteen Niang saw this, he waved his handkerchief and said, "Everyone else calls me Thirteen Niang, and you call me that way." ”

"Thirteen Niang!" He Xiaoqiao immediately shouted from the goodness.

"Hey~" Chun Thirteen Niang turned sideways with joy, pulled He Xiaoqiao to the chair on the side and pressed her to sit on the chair, while raising her voice and shouting, "Yinhua! Honeysuckle! Where did you go, girl? Why don't you bring good wine and food to the guests! ”

"Got it, Thirteen Niang!" Behind the curtain of the door, a rather delicate young girl poked her head out and responded crisply, and after a while, she brought a tray up, and put a pot of wine and two plates of side dishes on the table, "Three sons, please use it slowly." ”

"Thank you, Miss Silverflower." He Xiaoqiao nodded at her, the girl seemed to be a little stunned, glanced at He Xiaoqiao quickly, and retreated with a kind smile.

"Childe, you're so polite." Chun Shi Niang said with a smile, because the powder on her face was too thick, this smile forced out the wrinkles in the corners of her eyes, and it looked even more scary than before.

"Come on, you sit down first, let Thirteen Niang and I find you a few girls to accompany you, and keep them all gentle and good-looking." Chun Thirteen Niang said, and raised her voice and shouted, "Peony, cinnamon branches, cloves, why don't you come and talk to a few sons!" ”

"It's coming!"

Not far away, three girls dressed up in bright and enchanting clothes responded with a smile, twisting their small waists and walking towards this side with all kinds of style.
