Zhao Sichen put the tea. Pastries and other things were placed on the small table next to Wei Qianlang, and said: "The home is simple, you will have some, drink tea here first, eat some pastries to cushion your stomach, and then eat together." ”

Seeing Zhao Sichen turn around and prepare to return to the kitchen to continue his work, Wei Qianlang hurriedly asked, "How can I help?" ”

Hearing Wei Qianlang take the initiative to speak, Zhao Sichen was not polite, took out a small basket of peanuts from the kitchen, put it next to Wei Qianlang, and said, "Since you are idle, then help peel peanuts." Later, let's make glutinous rice balls with peanut stuffing - the weather is cold today, the cold wind brings spring, let's drink a bowl of hot glutinous rice balls soup, which is comfortable. ”

Aunt Zhuo saw Zhao Sichen in the kitchen asking Wei Qianlang to peel peanuts, and the work in her hand paused for a few seconds.

Although the third prince's mother, Concubine Hui, is not favored, he is one of the princes favored by the saint, and he has the help of the Marquis of Anding, and he has been carefully raised in the palace since he was a child, and he has never done a little rough work.

When he came to Miss Zhao, Miss Zhao called him unceremoniously, as if he were an ordinary man.

The third prince didn't seem to care......

Aunt Zhuo was stunned for a while, and Yun Bi urged her on the side: "Aunt Zhuo, you have to bring the sauce over there here." ”

Aunt Zhuo responded with a smile.

Since Miss Zhao was right, and Miss Yunbi was also normal at the time, then-

The matter of calling the three princes to work is not a big deal in the Zhao family!

Wei Qianlang has never done the work of peeling raw peanuts, nor has he ever seen no peanut shells.

He picked up the peanut, shook it in his hand, looked at it, and pinched it with his hand.

Let's go.

The peanuts crumbled into powder in his hands.

The force is too great, you have to control it.

Wei Qianlang tried to control the strength, tried a few times, and still broke a few in a row.

Because Wei Qianlang gave two rewards, Qingzhu was grateful, took the tea cup for the guest from Chunhua's hand, carefully brought it, and put it on the small table next to Wei Qianlang.

He observed for a while and found that Wei Qianlang had rusty hands and was not very skilled in peeling peanuts.

It turns out that the big brother who looks so powerful can't do such a simple thing.

Qingzhu held back a smile, approached cautiously, picked up a peanut, and gently pinched it with two fingers, peeling off the gray-white shell, revealing a red peanut coat.

Qingzhu is a demonstration for him.

Wei Qianlang understood in his heart, nodded gratefully at Qingzhu, and stepped aside.

Qingzhu didn't move a stool, sat down directly on the steps under the porch, and peeled peanuts with Wei Qianlang.

Although the two did not have a dialogue, the atmosphere between them was harmonious.

Soon, in the small basket in front of the two people, a small half of the peanuts were missing.

Zhao Sichen cut the vegetables in the kitchen, dried his two hands on the apron, walked out of the kitchen, and asked Wei Qianlang, "How many people did you bring here today?" ”

Wei Qianlang's hand didn't stop, the peanut shell fell down, and he replied: "Today, I went to visit Mr. Zhou Liyi at the Hanlin University Scholar's Mansion, I didn't dare to disturb, I didn't bring many people, only four guards and Tian Hongda." ”

Zhao Sichen asked again: "How do they solve the problem of Chinese food?" ”

Wei Qianlang didn't think about this matter in detail, thought about it, and said slowly: "It stands to reason that they follow me to someone else's house, and the host's family will entertain them well......"

And so it was!

Zhao Sichen shook his head helplessly.

Wei Qianlang came to Zhao's house a few times, and also had a few meals in Zhao's house, but she ignored the guards and subordinates who came with him.

It's that she didn't fulfill her responsibilities as a master—

In the future, Wei Qianlang will not be allowed to eat at her house!

How to solve it today?

Zhao Sichen suggested: "Your little servants and guards can't make them hungry every time they come to the Zhao family. Otherwise, let them go to a nearby restaurant for a meal? I'll pay ......"

Wei Qianlang shook his head and said, "No." They were on an errand and left their master without permission, and if something happened to the master, it would be a dead word. Even if there is nothing to do on my side and I go back to the Three Princes' Mansion, they will have to be punished. ”

“…… Oh. ”

Is it so serious?

Zhao Sichen sighed.

Five big men, eat poor old man.

Even if she made it fresh, she wouldn't be able to cook enough for five big men.

Zhao Sichen thought for a while and beckoned Qingzhu to come over: "There is an old man who sells noodle soup at the door of our house, do you remember?" Last time, I asked you to go to him and buy noodle soup. ”

Qingzhu nodded quickly.

He naturally remembered that the old man's noodle soup was delicious, and he could cook three bowls alone.

Zhao Sichen said: "You call that old man in, bring the stall in, and let him cook noodle soup in our yard." ”

Qingzhu nodded and ran away.

Zhao Sichen called Steward Zhuo again: "Fortunately, the rain has stopped, Steward Zhuo, please go to the middle of the yard to set up tables and chairs, and then invite a few heroes guarding our door to come in, and we will have a light meal in our yard." ”

In the end, Zhao Sichen went back to the kitchen and asked Aunt Zhuo to cut the freshly marinated large pieces of beef and pig's head: "Let's keep a small half of it, and cut the rest into two large plates and send them to the table on the other side of the yard." ”

Aunt Zhuo is a good worker, a kitchen knife is fast, and she quickly cut two large plates of freshly marinated beef and pig's head.

Zhao Sichen was holding a plate in one hand, and as soon as he stepped out of the kitchen door, he saw Wei Qianlang sitting at the door.

She casually shouted, "Since you have to be idle, why don't you send these two plates of meat to the front yard." ”

Wei Qianlang said "um", didn't say much, patted his two hands, patted the peanut shells on his hands, and then took Zhao Sichen with two large plates of meat in his hands, and walked steadily to the front yard.

As soon as Wei Qianlang walked to the front yard, Zhuo Daneng came in from the gate with four big men and Tian Hongda, and they bumped into each other.

Everyone at the door was dumbfounded, looking at the gorgeously dressed young man in front of him with two large plates of meat.

Blinking, I thought I was wrong.

"Ouch, I can't help it, I can't help it, little third master, how can you serve the food yourself?!! It's a bad man!! ”

Tian Hong shouted loudly and greeted him.

If Steward Xing knew that the third prince had become a boy serving vegetables, he was afraid that he would be beaten and scolded, and maybe he would be driven to Zhuangzi and not let him go back to the city.

The four guards also surrounded Wei Qianlang and confessed one after another.

"Get up!" Wei Qianlang passed by Tian Hongda's side, kicked him lightly with his toes, and said, "What are you still doing in a daze?" Quickly set the table and put the meat on it. ”

As he was talking, Zhao Sichen came to the front yard with a small basket of oranges, and saw everyone gossiping around Wei Qianlang, a little speechless.

The class concept of the ancients will be difficult to eliminate for a while.

Why don't you just serve two plates of meat, what a big deal?!

She opened her mouth to relieve everyone, and said with a smile: "Don't be stunned, everyone, sit down." Our family conditions are poor, you will be wronged today, and you will have a meal in the yard. ”

The guards didn't dare to move, and they all looked at Wei Qianlang.

Zhao Sichen stepped forward and said with a smile: "I invited you to eat this meal today, don't thank the wrong person, the third prince of your family just helped me serve two plates of meat." ”

Wei Qianlang also said lightly: "Don't be stunned, sit down and eat." ”

The tense atmosphere subsided, Tian Hongda looked at Zhao Sichen and smiled, and the guards also hugged their fists: "Thank you, Miss Zhao." ”

Zhao Sichen smiled and said, "Stay for a while and eat some fruit after eating." Because the family was short of manpower, I was afraid that I would not take good care of it, so I brought the fruit first. ”

Tian Hongda hurriedly ran forward and took the fruit from Zhao Sichen's hand diligently.

At this time, the old man who sold noodle soup was also invited over and set up a stall in the courtyard.

Zhao Sichen said: "Later, everyone will eat a bowl of hot noodles to drive away the spring cold." ”

And let the old man of the noodle stall cut the ingredients, and did not save the pickled cucumbers, garlic cloves, and greens that should be served with them.

Taking care of this side, Zhao Sichen and Wei Qianlang returned to the hall.

Yunbi had already set up the table, on which were hot braised pork, green vegetables, winter melon and shrimp balls and chicken skin soup, steamed duck stuffed with wine, stewed elbows with ham, and brown sugar peanut glutinous rice balls.

The lobby is brightly lit and the aroma of various dishes is fragrant.

Zhao Sichen rolled up his sleeves, first picked up a bowl of hot green fragrant rice and japonica rice, and put it in front of Wei Qianlang. Sandwiched another piece of duck breast, and said with a smile: "You are blessed today, Sister Yunbi made a big meal, which was originally to celebrate Mr. Guo and Yu Feng's successful admission to the school." I didn't expect them to go home, but let you get cheap. ”

Yun Bi stood behind, heard Zhao Sichen say this, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "These are all home-cooked dishes." When the third prince came to the house, he should make another meal, but he didn't have enough time to ....... ”

Wei Qianlang hurriedly smiled: "Sister Yunbi, don't treat me as an outsider, don't treat me as a third prince, you don't need to prepare anything for me, just treat it as an ordinary day." ”

Zhao Sichen took Yun Bi's hand and asked her to sit down, Yun Bi didn't squirm, sat down directly, and said with a smile: "Since you said so, then I won't be polite to you in the future." ”

Wei Qianlang tasted the duck breast, and the aroma of the duck meat exploded in his mouth. The aroma of the meat is accompanied by a hint of sake. And the wine takes away the fishy smell of the duck, but adds to the chewiness of the duck.

He finished eating it in one bite and gave a thumbs up: "Sister Yunbi, the dishes you cook can't be compared to the best chefs in the capital." ”

Yun Bi said with a smile: "The chefs in the capital have a few ancestral hard dishes at the bottom of the box. My little home-cooked food is just an axe. But don't kill me. ”

Zhao Sichen turned his head to look at Wei Qianlang: "Do you think Sister Yunbi is suitable to open a restaurant and be a chef?" ”

Sister Yunbi is the big palace maid in the harem of the former King Zhao, and her cooking skills are first-class, even in the palace, she is a rare opponent.

Although there are many chefs in Daqing City, there is nothing that can be compared with Sister Yunbi.

However, after listening to Zhao Sichen's words, Wei Qianlang shook his head.

He thought that Zhao Sichen was looking for a way to make money, and persuaded: "Sister Yunbi's cooking skills, not to mention ordinary chefs, even if they are compared with the chefs in the palace of the Wei Kingdom, they are not inferior."

However, women can generally only work as cooks in the inner house, because the meals and pastries in the backyard are not large and mainly fine.

Most of the chefs in the restaurant are powerful men who can hold a big pot and spoon.

Rao is a young and middle-aged man, and he is tired enough to work in the back kitchen for a day. ”

Unexpectedly, Zhao Sichen not only did not listen to persuasion, but seriously discussed the feasibility of opening a restaurant with Wei Qianlang.
