Chapter 71: Dinner (1)
"Yan Yan wants to learn, come to my mother to teach you!" Min Qing pulled Feng Tianyan in front of her and began to teach Feng Tianyan to play the guqin.
Due to the foundation of musical instruments such as the guzheng, Feng Tianyan learns very quickly. This made Min Qing, who didn't know what was going on, couldn't help but feel envious: This daughter is really talented!
After practicing for an hour, although the fingering is not yet very proficient, Feng Qianyan is already able to play simple tunes.
"It won't be long before Yan Yan can surpass the level of her mother!"
"It's not that my mother taught me well! Hehe!" Feng Qian looked at the sky, there was still an hour or so before dinner, and said, "Mother, can you practice here today?"
"Okay, it's not too early, let's go back and rest. Min Qing said while helping her daughter tidy up her dress.
"I'm going to my grandfather's yard and promise him to cook two dishes in the morning. ”
"Yo, when will our good daughter learn to cook?" Min Qing said with a smile, just to make the old man happy.
"Secret, hee-hee! My mother remembered to tell my father and my brothers to come to Grandpa's for dinner. ”
"Got it. Then we're all waiting to taste your craft!" Min Qing sent Feng Tianyan to the gate of the courtyard.
Inside the kitchenette of Cangwu Courtyard.
"Cui'er, come and give me a hand. The wind took out the basket and the carp.
"Miss, where did this fish come from?" Cui'er remembered that there were no fish in the big kitchen.
"I caught it in the lake in Fuchu. Feng Qian Yan said as he sorted out the ingredients.
"Ah?!Miss, that's the koi raised by the old general!" Cui'er was frightened.
"Shhhh "Anyway, I want to make it for the old man to eat, and I can use it with peace of mind.
Cui'er hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand, looked around, and was relieved to see that there was no one.
The master and servant began to wash vegetables and cut meat in the small kitchen, and they were busy in full swing.
Soon, a pungent fragrance gradually wafted in the courtyard.
Feng Xiaotian was playing chess with Chen Ting in the study.
"Huh?" Old Man Feng moved his nose, "Old Chen, do you smell anything?"
Chen Ting sniffed it carefully and said, "I don't know who is the cook today, this smell is fragrant!"
Chen Ting has been by Feng Xiaotian's side since he was a child, and he has worked from a small maid to the housekeeper of the General's Mansion, and his daughter-in-law and two sons are all working in the mansion. has followed the old man's relationship for decades, and he is also a servant and a friend, and the two of them are more casual when they get along in private.
"Well, it's really fragrant! It should be Yan Yatou tinkering in the small kitchen!hahaha!"
"You mean Miss?"
"This girl said in the morning that she would cook for the old man herself, hehe!" Feng Xiaotian smiled proudly.
"The eldest lady is a filial one, you are blessed!" Chen Ting said, leaving a son, "Win!"
"Eh, why did I lose!" Feng Xiaotian's attention was attracted by the smell coming from the kitchen, and he accidentally lost the chess game, and said unwillingly, "Come on, fight again!"
Because today is Hugh Mu, the three brothers are at home. At dinner, the family sat around the flower hall of Cangwu Courtyard. The people served all the meals one after another, and only the wind was blowing.
"Cui'er, get ready to serve. Feng Qianyan did the final preparation and clapped his hands.
Cui'er called out to the two little maids, no one took a dish, and followed the wind into the flower hall.
The three-course dishes were served, and the family looked at the unfamiliar dishes with a blank face.
