After he reminded him like this, Hong Fang suddenly remembered the purpose of his coming, and hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, not only the princess of Xiangyang, but their family and the king of Xiangyang are here." ”

"All here?" He Xiaoqiao couldn't help but raise his voice, and he also had the urge to throw Hong Fang out at this time, "Why didn't you say it earlier...... Cai Lian, go and invite people in. ”

Cai Lian hurriedly ran to pick up someone, He Xiaoqiao also wanted to follow, but as soon as she stood up, she asked Jiang Fenghao to pull her back, "Just sit down, the sixth sister-in-law doesn't care about this." ”

Thinking of having to walk so far, He Xiaoqiao was also a little out of breath, and finally decided to listen to Jiang Fenghao, just wait in the house.

Cailian trotted all the way, and when she came back, she was quite fast.

He Xiaoqiao had just asked Suo'er to remove the cold food on the table, and was about to let the big kitchen cook some freshly cooked, when he heard footsteps outside, and then Princess Xiangyang, who was still a little pale, let the maid help her and walked in slowly.

Jiang Fenghao stood up to help her, but Princess Xiangyang glared at him, turned to pull He Xiaoqiao's hands, who also came forward, and looked her up and down with a worried look, "It's all right now?" Do you feel uncomfortable? ”

Knowing that she cared for herself sincerely, He Xiaoqiao couldn't help but be a little moved, shook his head when he heard the words, and replied very obediently, "No, no, it couldn't be better, there is Lao Liu's sister-in-law who cares." ”

"You!" When Princess Xiangyang saw that she was really fine, she put down her heart, stretched out her hand and nodded her forehead, pretending to be slightly angry and said, "I'm about to be a mother, why are you still so careless!" It's like this twice in a row, and it's going to scare you to death...... Don't run outside if you're okay in the future, and don't let strangers in...... I'm old and in poor health, but I can't stand your scare a few times. ”

Listening to her babbling like a real elder, He Xiaoqiao's heart was warm, nodding his head from time to time.

I don't know if it's because of the cold wind blowing along the way, or because the body is relatively weak at the beginning of the serious illness, and she noticed that Princess Xiangyang's palms are a little cold, He Xiaoqiao hurriedly pulled her to the table and sat down, poured her a cup of hot tea, and hurriedly motioned for Cailian to go and fetch a charcoal basin, and put it in the house to warm up.

Princess Xiangyang greeted He Xiaoqiao, and the King of Xiangyang, who followed him all the way because he was worried about his wife's health, was naturally received by Jiang Fenghao.

"I haven't seen you for many days, is the sixth brother in good health?"

King Xiangyang tilted his head and snorted heavily, not wanting to answer him at all, so he walked to the table and sat down.

Jiang Fenghao had long been accustomed to his look of looking down on people, and he didn't mind, so he turned his head with a smile and ordered his subordinates to go to the kitchen to get two more pairs of dishes and chopsticks.

Hong Fang was fully focused on the food, and when he heard the noise, he looked up at the other side. Seeing that it was the king of Xiangyang, he was not much surprised on his face, grinning and his master, all smiling, looking extremely silly.

Hong Fang didn't wear the clothes of a guard, and the king of Xiangyang didn't have much impression of his appearance, plus he didn't know that the Changning Royal Mansion had developed a borderless and classless distinction under the leadership of He Xiaoqiao, and it was common for the servants and guards to eat at the same table with the master. Seeing a bearded man sitting opposite, he thought it was a guest who came to visit the house, although he still had a disdainful expression on his face, he finally didn't attack him, and even nodded slightly to say hello.

Receiving this courtesy, Hong Fang was very surprised, but because of the thick nerves, he quickly forgot about it, and continued to look at the dishes on the table intently, calculating which one to eat first would be more cost-effective.

In addition to crystal melon and stir-fried shrimp, there was also a plate of finely sliced radish, a plate of oil and mustard, a plate of ham with bean sprouts, a plate of fried bean sprouts with mushrooms, and a silver silk roll and sesame pancake that had just been made.

The black pottery wine jar that had been simmering on the stove for four or five hours in the center of the table was still exuding heat, and He Xiaoqiao took a thick cloth and handed it to Jiang Fenghao, signaling him to open the lid.

In view of the fact that this wine jar was too abrupt, Princess Xiangyang couldn't help but look at it twice, and said strangely, "This jar is filled with warm wine?" Why doesn't it smell at all? ”

King Xiangyang also looked inexplicable, but since an old wife asked on his behalf, he saved the question, stroked his gray beard, and sat with a serious expression waiting for an answer.

"It's food, not drink." He Xiaoqiao explained with a smile, "The wine jar is just a container, just like a plate and soup bowl." ”

As he was talking, Jiang Fenghao had already gone to the lid and opened the lotus leaf attached to the mouth of the altar with his hand.

In an instant, the aroma of wine reached the nose and went straight to the heart.

Jiang Fenghao and Hong Fang both looked like they couldn't go up to the mouth of the jar, and even the action of the king of Xiangyang brushing his beard stopped, leaning forward regardless of the image, and snorting vigorously, as if he wanted to inhale all the aroma into his stomach.

Princess Xiangyang smiled and pointed to He Xiaoqiao, "It seems that this is really the right time, look at a few of them - I haven't seen your sixth brother show such a gluttonous appearance for a long time." ”

"Since the sixth brother likes it, then I will write the recipe and raw materials on paper later, and the sixth sister-in-law, you can bring it back, and when you want to eat it then, just let the cook do it." He Xiaoqiao didn't intend to hide his secrets, so he took over with a smile.

"That's not going to work, I don't have the energy to care about that." Princess Xiangyang waved her hand, glanced at her husband, looked back at He Xiaoqiao and said, "If you want to eat one day, I will send him to you, and don't lock him out of the door when the time comes." ”

He Xiaoqiao laughed, "Sixth sister-in-law, is this burying our husband and wife?" There is only a pot of soup left and right, and you can come whenever you want, but you have to explain before you come, so I can let people find all the ingredients. ”

Buddha jumping over the wall, a famous dish that appears at state banquets all year round, is naturally extraordinary, just collecting eighteen kinds of raw materials took her several months, and the abalone and shark fin were also recently brought back by Jiang Fenghao from outside.

Jiang Fenghao also knew that it was not easy to find ingredients, and when he heard this, he laughed all kinds of smiling, and without saying a word, he started to sell melons again, "It's a loss that the sixth brother and six sisters-in-law have long legs, this Buddha jumping over the wall is the only good taste of Dayan, and my lady can do it all over the world, and others don't have this good cooking skills!" ”

He Xiaoqiao secretly kicked him under the table, and scolded with a smile, "Besides, the soup is going to be cold, don't hurry up." ”

Her flower fist embroidered legs are like tickling to Jiang Fenghao, and she looks like she is smiling when she is kicked, but her subordinates obediently take a spoon and poke it into the wine jar.

Soon, a bowl of soup was placed in front of several people at the table, and the thick brown Buddha jumped over the wall, and the thick aroma of meat was perfectly integrated in the taste of wine, making people can't help but relish their tongues just by smelling it.

This time, even the princess of Xiangyang couldn't help it, picked up the bowl and mixed it twice, "The taste of this soup...... It's amazing. ”

In his last life, thanks to his friends, He Xiaoqiao was fortunate enough to eat Buddha jumping over the wall a few times, and then he tried to do it twice, and he always felt that the taste was a little lacking.

So he instigated, "Sixth sister-in-law, try it, this thing can delay aging, and eating more can also beautify your skin." ”

As soon as He Xiaoqiao's words fell, Princess Xiangyang hadn't moved, and Hong Fang had already poured the whole bowl of soup into her stomach with a snort, smashing her mouth like a cow chewing a peony, as if she was reminiscing about the taste just now, "It's delicious!" ”

Jiang Fenghao eats more elegantly, but the speed is also not slow, and he was already loading the second bowl when the Xiangyang Wang couple had not started, expressing his absolute support for his daughter-in-law with practical actions.

The king of Xiangyang himself is the most old-fashioned and etiquette-oriented, and when he saw this, he couldn't help but glare at the two of them, and expressed his high contempt for Hong Fang Zhu Bajie's behavior of eating ginseng fruit.

But contempt is contempt, and his subordinates don't stop grabbing spoons.

Princess Xiangyang, who was sitting next to him, tried a few bites, and her eyes were full of amazement, "I didn't expect it to smell rich, but it tasted so soft and soft...... Meat is not greasy, the taste is strong, even if it is a palace meal, there is rarely such a good taste. ”

He Xiaoqiao ate half a bowl by himself, although he couldn't achieve the realm of a hotel chef, but he felt that the taste was much better than before, and I don't know if it was because of the fresh and sufficient ingredients.

After listening to Princess Xiangyang's words, she was even more happy, "If the sixth sister-in-law likes it, drink more." Next time I cook this dish, I will call you to come over with the sixth brother. ”

"Then you're welcome." Princess Xiangyang said with a smile, and ate a whole bowl of Buddha jumping over the wall and even soup and meat in an elegant and slow manner.

This time, without Jiang Fenghao's help, King Xiangyang, who saw that his old wife's appetite was open, had already stretched out his hand and unceremoniously scooped her a full bowl.

Jiang Fenghao on the side naturally did the same, and by the way, he kicked out the cheeky Hong Fang who wanted to drink the third bowl.

During the banquet, everyone talked and laughed, and soon wiped out a whole jar of Buddha jumping over the wall and the accompanying appetizers, and everyone looked satisfied.

"After living for so many years, this is the first time I've eaten so much." Princess Xiangyang put down the dishes and chopsticks, took the clean handkerchief handed over by the maid, nodded the corners of her lips, and said to He Xiaoqiao with a smile, "It seems that in the future, not only your sixth brother, but even I will often come to eat." ”

After the hot soup was smoked, her complexion looked much better, her cheeks were flushed, she completely took off her sick appearance, and her mood looked even better.

In view of this, the king of Xiangyang couldn't help but glance at He Xiaoqiao a few times, and there was a lot less dissatisfaction with her background in the past.

It was rare to open Chrysostom, and for the first time let go of prejudice and talk to her, "Old Seventeen, the origin of this Buddha jumping over the wall, but what is the allusion?" ”

"There are naturally allusions." He Xiaoqiao pursed his lips and smiled, "But the versions are different, so I'll just pick up a simple one." ”

"It is rumored that a long time ago, the name of the Buddha jumping over the wall was 'Mantan Incense'. One year, a monk who attained the Tao stayed in a hotel overnight, and happened to meet the people on the partition wall who were feasting guests with "full altar incense", and when the altar was opened, the incense floated in four seats. The monk smelled and salivated, abandoned Buddhism for many years of practice, jumped over the wall and entered to enjoy the "full altar incense". The scholar who had good deeds laughed at this time, and also wrote a poem saying, "The altar opens the meat incense and floats in the neighborhood, and the Buddha hears and abandons Zen and jumps over the wall" - from then on, the "full altar incense" was renamed "Buddha jumping over the wall". ”

"The altar opens the meat incense and floats around, and the Buddha hears that he abandons Zen and jumps over the wall......" Several people present, except for Hong Fang, the big boss, silently chewed these two lines of poetry, and then laughed, "No wonder it's called this name, it really deserves it!" Well deserved! ”
