Chapter 113: You don't have to come back
Later, Sister Kite returned to the British Mansion and was found out by the second master Chu Qizheng for stealing tea, and there was a rift between father and daughter, so I won't go into details.
Later, Chu Lian found out, and only listened to it as a joke.
In the main courtyard of the front yard to entertain male guests, there was a table of old and young nobles in Beijing, from the old Zheng Guogong to Xiao Wei Yuanhou, some of whom they did not have much contact with on weekdays, but today they gathered together because of the food brought by Chu Lian.
Everyone invariably only enjoyed the food in front of them, and did not talk about the government and national conditions.
After half a month of cultivation, the old Zheng Guogong has been taken care of by Ming Yan's 'essence' heart in the diet, and now goodbye, he is already a 'spirit', and the old man's nose is a little red, and he looks even more 'spirit'.
Old Zheng Guogong recently fell in love with the spicy boiled fish, when he was in Zheng Guogong's mansion, he had to eat every meal, the boiled fish white glutinous fillets floated on the red 'color' chili oil, with a unique fresh and tender deliciousness, eat a bite, tender want to swallow the tongue into the stomach.
Originally, this boiled fish was the most delicious food, but when I came to Linju today, I saw a huge plate of grilled fish brought up by the little guy, and the two 'smart' eyes widened.
The spicy grilled fish of Guilinju is the most tender Qingjiang fish in the Minjiang River, the selected Qingjiang fish is still in the freshest time when it is slaughtered, the fish 'meat' is fresh and tender, the outermost layer of fish skin is burnt yellow, and the spicy oil in the grilled fish plate is sent into the mouth, the greasy fish skin has been roasted out, leaving only the smooth and burnt fragrance, swallow it, and immediately can't help but want to eat the next bite, and wait until you eat a few more bites, the chopsticks can't stop, until the tongue is slightly numb, but I feel that this kind of pleasure is comfortable.
Fresh bean sprouts and lettuce, burnt chestnuts, and green lettuce can be served on the grilled fish plate.
In the big 'flower' hall of the main courtyard, a table of nobles, forgot to speak, and after a few chopsticks went down, they were all hula and runny nose, and there was a waiting servant behind him who came up with wet wipes, and the old Zheng Guogong wiped his nose boldly, this is autumn, and there is a layer of fine sweat on his forehead because of spicy food, just like this, he has to shout "refreshing".
Let the little guys who are standing behind and serving be ashamed.
Xiao Wei waited for a light mouth, and he couldn't eat spicy food, but he watched one or two chopsticks around him keep stretching out to the plate of grilled fish with a rich fragrance, and finally he swallowed his saliva, and finally couldn't resist the 'temptation' and 'confusion', and stretched out to the big square plate.
Two mouthfuls of fish 'meat' went down, Xiao Wei's spicy tears came out, and the originally pale 'color' lips were even red, 'glamorous' and 'glamorous', and even a little swollen, with a tendency to evolve to sausages.
While he was inciting with his hand, the hand holding the chopsticks couldn't help but pick up the grilled fish, look at his appearance, where is the appearance of the handsome and noble little marquis on weekdays, at this time he looks like a gluttonous diner, or the kind without an image at all.
The little servants who were waiting buried their heads lower, and they all wanted to stuff their heads into the crotch of their 'pants', where was there a little bit of aristocratic and high-ranking officials in this situation of grabbing food.
Ming Yan also came to the forest house with the old man today, and she couldn't enter the 'flower' hall where the nobles dined together, so she hid behind the screen and secretly took a look.
The little guys who served in the 'flower' hall were all clever people personally selected by Steward Qin, and today the old grandfather brought this maid with him, which shows that this maid's identity is not ordinary, so they just turn a blind eye, anyway, this maid just stood behind the screen and looked at it, and didn't do anything.
As soon as Ming Yan saw the situation of everyone eating in the 'flower' hall, his face turned pale in an instant.
Her eyes fell on the sandalwood table in the center of the 'flower' hall again, and suddenly she found that she had never seen any of those fresh dishes!
Ming Yan's heart sank to the bottom in an instant.
What's going on? Why is there so many new dishes in the third 'milk' and 'milk', and does she still have many secret recipes in her hands?
Ming Yan lost her mind for a while, and buckled the screen to carve 'flowers', and the screen was a little skewed because of the weight of her body leaning on, but fortunately, the little guy standing next to her quickly held the screen.
The little girl said unhappily: "This girl, if it's okay, you better go out, if there is an accident here, you and I can't afford to take our lives." ”
Ming Yan also came back to her senses at this time, regained a trace of reason, she thanked her in a panic, and then turned around and stumbled out of the "flower" hall of the main courtyard from the back "door".
Could it be that when they were in Songtao Garden, the three 'milks' and 'milk' still had many secret recipes hidden from them?
It's impossible, the three 'milk' and 'milk' don't shy away from a few big girls every time they eat, and even tell them the secret recipe in person, she is not stupid, as long as it is the secret recipe of the three 'milk' and 'milk', she has carefully memorized it and then learned it.
The three 'milk' and 'milk' are just ordinary people, where will the secret recipe be inexhaustible, even if it is more, in those days, she has also learned everything, why is there now a lot of dishes she hasn't even seen?
Speaking of which, in fact, Ming Yan has only learned more than 20 dishes, which is just a 'hair' for Chu Lian, a big foodie who has eaten all over the country, and it is not worth mentioning at all.
Only Ming Yan himself was complacent in his heart, thinking that he had completely mastered the secret recipe handed down from the ancestors of the three 'milk' and 'milk'.
Looking at Fang Cai, Lao Zheng Guogong was obviously robbed of his favor by the dishes that returned to Linju.
If this is the case, how will she gain a foothold in the Zheng Guogong Mansion in the future.
The more Ming Yan thought about it, the worse her mood became, she was unwilling, she took a brave step, and she would never retreat back to the same place.
She walked back and forth under the porch outside the courtyard, the handkerchief in her hand had been stirred into a ball by her, and finally she suddenly made a decision, and the next second, she walked out of the courtyard quickly.
On the way, she asked a servant for the direction of the kitchen, and then she walked quickly to the kitchen, but before she could enter, she was stopped by a tall man guarding outside the kitchen.
"This girl stays, the kitchen is an important place to return to the forest, and idlers can't go in. ”
Ming Yan lowered her head and shook slightly, and after a moment, she raised her head after doing her psychological construction, met the sharp gaze of the guy, and said confidently: "I am the big girl next to the three 'milks' and 'milks', I came to the kitchen to do things on the orders of the three 'milks' and 'milks', you dare to stop me?"
The guy who was originally upright was stunned, but he didn't know what to do, when suddenly a familiar voice sounded behind Ming Yan, "Ah Zhong, you go in and help, 'hand' me over the matter here." ”
It was Xi Yan who spoke, and Xi Yan often came to Lin Ju to teach the cook, and everyone here was familiar with her.
The guy named Ah Zhong immediately saluted the wild goose and went into the kitchen.
Ming Yan's whole body was frozen, she didn't expect Xi Yan to come to the kitchen at this time.
But in a blink of an eye, she didn't do anything to be kind, and she is still serving by the old man's side, the old man doesn't treat her as a maid, if she is raised by her side, others believe that her current status can be regarded as a higher than Xiyan, and her waist should be straighter.
"Miss Mingyan, I've been taking care of Grandpa Guo all this time, when did the three 'milks' and 'milk' instruct you to do things, why don't I know. Xiyan scoffed.
This Ming Yan looks quite honest on weekdays, but she didn't expect that she would have a different heart a long time ago, and now she is still pretending to say three 'milk' and 'milk', if she was really let into the kitchen just now, I don't know what irreparable things will happen.
Today is the first banquet for Guilinju, and the most important thing is not to have a little trouble.
As soon as she declared, the wild goose girl showed that the wild goose was alienated from her.
Ming Yan frowned, cursing Xi Yan fiercely in his heart, but he put on a smile on his face.
She walked two steps quickly to Xiyan's side, "Sister Xiyan, you blame me, I just look at the dishes made in the kitchen of the three 'milks' and 'milk' in the forest house today, and I want to come and see the world, but I don't have any other thoughts." ”
Xi Yan 'twitched' back the arm she was holding and looked at her with a cold face, "You'd better not have any other thoughts, it's okay, you better go back to your grandfather's side, the dishes in the kitchen of Guilinju are all made from secret recipes, and you don't want to show outsiders." ”
Xi Yan's words were unceremoniously, she was not a person who could go around her mind, not to mention that in front of the annoying Ming Yan, she could say whatever she wanted.
Ming Yan's face couldn't hold back, she stomped her feet, "Sister Xiyan, what are you talking about! You treat me as an outsider? Even when the three 'milks' and 'milk' were eating in the house, they never avoided me!"
"That's because you were the big girl next to the three 'milks' and 'milks', and you were the one who served the three 'milks' and 'milk', but the master you are serving now is the grandfather of the country, and when you return to the three 'milks' and 'milk', when will you be the same as before. ”
Leaving this sentence, Xiyan was too lazy to entangle with such a white-eyed wolf, so she immediately threw her back and hurried into the kitchen by herself.
Ming Yan stared at the 'door' of the kitchen, stunned for a while, and finally could only spit hatefully, stomp his feet and leave.
Subsequently, Ming Yan went to look for Jing Yan and Fu Yan who came with her, but it was a pity that Jing Yan and Fu Yan were waiting by Chu Lian's side, and she couldn't see anyone.
With a nervous and anxious mood, Ming Yan returned to the outside of the 'flower' hall of the main courtyard with a restless heart.
As soon as she arrived at the 'door' of the 'flower' hall, she heard the angry voice of old Zheng Guogong from inside, she paused, walked forward, and got closer.
"Jinyi, your restaurant is running well, and my old man will have a place to eat in the future. This is the voice of old Zheng Guogong, obviously with unconcealed joy.
"The business that will return to Lin Ju in the future will be taken care of by the old man. Chu Lian's voice is unique soft and clear, very good.
"By the way, a few days ago, my old guy's body is thanks to your little girl, the maid you left in the house is not bad, but the old man's body is almost better, you can't occupy the big girl next to you, otherwise, that girl, you will send someone to bring it back today!"
Chu Lian's eyes blinked, and he said with a smile: "It seems that Mingyan's girl is very liked by Grandpa Guo, and there is no shortage of people around the younger generation to serve her, since Grandpa Guo uses it easily, there is no need to send her back, and the younger generation will let the grandma next to her send the girl's deed of sale to the Guogong Mansion the next day." Anyway, that girl also learned a lot of secret recipes from me. The old man can't help but give the younger generation this opportunity to pay respect. ”
