Yangcheng

Tong Shaoxuan's little cousin, surnamed Changsun, has a single name, Shu, and the small character is Aru. She has been aggressive since she was a child.

A month ago, Ye Niang said that she would take her out to play, and she happily prepared new clothes, planning to enjoy spring outings and travel around Dongchun.

If possible, it would be best to persuade Ye Niang to go to Boling to see and see.

Unexpectedly, after playing around the mountains in Dongchun, she said that Ye Niang didn't intend to go to Boling, but instead came to the southeast.

At that time, she had a bad premonition—could it be that she was going to visit poor relatives in the backcountry again?

Ah Ru questioned her, Ye Niang, but Ye Niang just started to hesitate, saying that she was overwhelmed and didn't want to go to Su County.At that time, Ah Ru really believed them, but he didn't expect to come to this place in the end!

So Ye Niang regards me as a child who is easy to be deceived, right?

She didn't have a good impression of the poor relatives in Su County, and now the feeling of being cheated made her even more annoyed, and she just wanted to find a place to vent her anger.

It's fine if you force her to attend any family banquet, anyway, she can't guarantee what kind of embarrassing things this mouth can say!

Ah Ru on this one had thought up all sorts of hurtful moves, while Tang Jianwei on the other was really aroused by her words with a gun and a stick.

Now Tang Jianwei is already a legitimate daughter-in-law of the Tong family, and the glory of the Tong family is firmly tied to her, but she can't listen to anyone saying anything bad about the Tong family.

She knew best that the members of Tong's family were all talkative, but in fact they were very soft-hearted. Some of them didn't even talk very well, and they were all stupid and good people.

Wealth or not is not the only criterion for measuring a family.

What's more, if Tong Shaoxuan was willing to sell her invention, he would have become the richest man in Su County long ago!The richest man in Angzhou is no problem, right?

The Tong family is wonderful!One poor relative at a time, really deserves a beating!

How can you let such a brat look down on you?

Tang Jianwei went straight to the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves and his eyes were on fire, and said to Zitan, "Don't cut the mutton, go and buy some fried tofu for me, the one from Sister Shen's will do! There are other ingredients, here is List, buy them all for me!"

Rosewood: "..."

Seeing Tang Jianwei's fighting spirit so high, he wished to tear the little bum with his hands, Zitan knew that it would be useless to say another ten thousand words.

Tong Shaoxuan dragged Xiang Yuesheng's wreckage back, roughly repaired it, and put it back in the backyard. He planned to wait for his relatives and friends to leave in two days before concentrating on tidying it up.

In fact, this time the flying wheel has been successfully developed, but the success was too fast, and the brake device was forgot to be installed.The next time the brake device is installed, it will be the day when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming.

At that time, on the night of the full moon, let Tang Jianwei make some delicious snacks, and take Tang Jianwei to fly to the sky to enjoy the moon!

Thinking about such a beautiful thing, Tong Shaoxuan's steps became much lighter, thinking of Tang Jianwei in his heart, he went back to the east courtyard to look for her, but there was no sign of her.

Where did Tang Jianwei go?Could it be that he was really injured?

When Tong Shaoxuan came out, he happened to see Tang Guanqiu and bowed to her:

"Hello, sister, did you see where Tang Jianwei went?"

Tang Guanqiu took a step back vigilantly, kept a distance from Tong Shaoxuan, and pointed in the direction of the chef.

Tang Jianwei went to the kitchen now, did she start preparing for the night market so early?

It just so happened that before watching her fan the flames, she had to be watched by a special person. If she was accidentally smoked and coughed, it was even worse when sparks flew into her eyes. It was too much effort.

Tong Shaoxuan specially created a small device that can automatically fan the fire and turn over the grilled skewers. Right now, it is just right to show her and let her know that she can do something useful.

Tong Shaoxuan walked into the kitchen with a small machine, and Tang Jianwei didn't notice her presence after turning around twice, and he was wholeheartedly dealing with a large basket of fried tofu.

The "skull" of the fried tofu was accurately cut off with a knife in one hand, and then the inside of the fried tofu was cleaned out with a spoon, and the minced meat and shiitake mushrooms were filled in, and arranged one by one. Place in a steamer.

"What is this?" Tong Shaoxuan asked curiously, "It looks weird."

"When did you come in, and you didn't make a sound, you scared me." Tang Jianwei pointed to the fried tofu stuffed by her full of energy and said:

"It's called Golden Wanliang, and it's not only pretty but also delicious."

Tang Jianwei answered her casually while continuing to work on other dishes without stopping.

"Why do you start cooking at this hour? I thought you were preparing for the night market? Could it be that the family banquet at noon today also made you work? Whose meaning is this? Did my mother ask you to come over for lunch? Or Aunt He asked you to help?"

Tong Shaoxuan was a little anxious, he was afraid that it was his own family's intention to let the new daughter-in-law work hard on the first day after the wedding,

"And why don't you take a break, just get busy here."

"Your mother didn't ask me to do it. I did everything I could to ask Aunt He to rest." Tang Jianwei turned around and said to Tong Shaoxuan very firmly and seriously, "This is my own idea."

Tong Shaoxuan didn't understand, and was about to ask again, but Tang Jianwei didn't give her a chance, and drove her out of the kitchen:

"Oh, don't talk so much, don't come in casually in my important kitchen!"

"I have something for..."

"Go outside and stay!"

Tong Shaoxuan: "..."

Tang Jianwei originally thought that the kitchen in the west courtyard was small enough, but he didn't expect that the one in the east courtyard was not that big.

At noon today, she has big things to do!Zitan had just bought all the ingredients and filled the kitchen to the brim. The stove and the rice bowl were all piled up like acrobatics, and if she accidentally touched them, the ground would shake and the ground would be shattered.

Tong Shaoxuan is a fickle person, and the longer she stays in the kitchen, the more likely it will cause an irreversible major accident. Will she get angry or get angry?

Tong Shaoxuan didn't finish half a sentence, and she threw it out directly.

Tong Shaoxuan stood outside the kitchen, holding a trick carefully designed for Tang Jianwei in his hand, and had no chance to show it at all.

Tong Shaoxuan: "..."

On the first day of marriage, he was rejected by his wife and rushed to and fro, Tong Shaoxuan let out a long sigh, and couldn't help worrying about his life after marriage.

After Tong Shaoxuan left, Tang Jianwei stood on the stove for a while, felt the pain in his waist, and said to Zitan:

"Help me watch the fire, and deal with the side dishes as I said. I'll be back in a while."

Zitan was worried about her: "Are you going to see a doctor? Why didn't you tell Madam."

"No, I'll be back when I go."

The Tong Mansion is not too big to say it is not small, many relatives from other places came to attend Tong Shaoxuan's wedding banquet, and the Tong Mansion can only accommodate some of them to live at home.Some relatives and friends were not used to living in the inn, and they left after the wedding banquet, leaving behind only those who had a close relationship.

It's rare for the whole family to get together, and they may not be able to see each other once a year even if they are in the mountains and high roads. They can chat more on the happy day of Tong Shaoxuan's wedding, and they don't know when they will meet next time.

In order to free up more room, Tong Changting has been sleeping with his son and father-in-law for the past few days.

These three people snorted like thunder, and usually they would cause people around them to fight wildly with bamboo poles. This time, the three of them are arranged together. Don't dislike each other. They can snore as much as they like when they are grouped together.

Song Qiao hadn't seen his mother for a long time, and the mother and daughter slept in the same room, chatting about this and that until midnight.

Song Qiao inadvertently mentioned Tong Shaoxuan's going to Boling, and said that she had participated in the eldest princess's spring appreciation party, and was called by the eldest princess to have a chat alone.

Whether it was back then or now, Song Qiao was very interested in the matter between his mother and the eldest princess, but unfortunately, he never heard his mother mention it directly, and he never had any excuse to mention it.

Now that he finally had a chance, Song Qiao couldn't ask his mother as soon as he arrived, it was too deliberate.

The past two days had suffocated her, and finally found a suitable opportunity to pretend that she hadn't meant to mention Anian's official career.

Song Qiao waited enthusiastically for A Niang to speak, but after waiting for a long time, A Niang just gave a plain "hmm" without any comment at all.

What does "um" mean?

After decades, the eldest princess still couldn't forget her, but she only answered "huh"?

Sure enough, she was the one who had the heart to let the eldest princess stand in the cold wind all night...

On the day of the big wedding, there was no room for people to sit, and today the family banquet is still placed in the yard.

Early in the morning, Ji Xueqiuxin and a few servants were already busy, moving out the foldable wooden table developed by Tong Shaoxuan.

Once the small wooden table was unfolded, it became a large round table. A round table can accommodate more than a dozen people to eat together. Two round tables are crowded enough for everyone to sit down.

Sitting in the bamboo grove, enjoying the cool breeze and warm sun, is quite pleasant.

Ji Xue brought out the cold dishes, and Song Qiao saw that there were some decent plates of duck feet, cold green vegetables, spicy snails and saliva chicken.

Song Qiao was very satisfied with what he saw in his eyes. It seems that Aunt He performed exceptionally today and would not be ashamed in front of relatives and friends.

In fact, Song Qiao wanted Tang Jianwei to show his hands.After all, she knew Tang Jianwei's craftsmanship, which was more than a little bit better than Aunt He's.Every time Tang Jianwei delivered the dishes, they could conquer their whole family, and they were well received in the county.If she can make a few random things and present them, it will definitely impress everyone.

But early in the morning, she was already exhausted because of what happened to A Nian, so it was inconvenient for Song Qiao to bother him, and she only pinned all her hopes on Aunt He.

Song Qiao was smiling at the cold dishes, calling everyone to sit down and try Aunt He's cooking skills, when he heard a little girl's voice with undisguised disgust say:

"What is this red thing? It looks scary. And how did the duck's feet be separated? Could it be chewed out by an old lady's mouth?"

Song Qiao turned his head and saw that it was Aru, the granddaughter of his third cousin, who was speaking.

Ah Ru held a pair of chopsticks in his hand, pointing casually at the served cold dishes.

"What are you talking about! Who taught you to speak like this?" Ah Ru's mother sat beside him, took her hand and scolded her in a low voice.

Ah Ru didn't confront her mother head-on, but smiled and said, "I'm just talking casually. I haven't seen these foods before, why can't I ask? Right, auntie, you don't think I'm so rare, do you? "

Song Qiao cheerfully replied: "No, no, Auntie told you that the red thing is dogwood, which is a bit spicy and can enhance the taste. The duck's paw was peeled out by our cook in the morning. , absolutely clean, Ah Ru, you can rest assured to eat."

"Your cook... I remember the last time I came to my aunt's house, she used pork that had eaten shit to cook, and the dishes she cooked were terrible! Last time we all had diarrhea after eating! It won't be her this time, right?"

Ah Ru's voice was high-pitched and thin, and he yelled while laughing. This sound was heard clearly by everyone in the yard, and they all turned their heads to look at Song Qiao.

The person who was about to eat with chopsticks also stopped in embarrassment because of her words.

For the people of Su County, it is very common for the latrine to be connected to the pigsty.

However, big cities such as Dongchun Boling are more particular, and fewer and fewer people do this, and they regard it as vulgar and dirty.

If they were all brothers and sisters who often met when they lived together, it would be fine to joke, but basically those present only saw each other once a year or two.The relationship is good, but there is still some estrangement after a little less contact, and occasionally it is not unreasonable to fight secretly.

Under such a complicated relationship, Ah Ru's words made Song Qiao quite embarrassed.

"You child, who taught you to speak like this! Hurry up and apologize to Auntie!"

Ah Ru's mother was going crazy.

I know that my daughter is sometimes naughty, and in the past two years, Ah Ru went to study in the most famous academy in Dongchun, twenty miles away, and lived there with a maid. , not as intimate as before.

It never occurred to her that Ah Ru actually said that he was crazy and acted crazy regardless of the occasion!

Ah Ru sneered in his heart, but turned to Song Qiao as sweet as candy: "So you can't say these things, I'm sorry, Auntie, you don't care about villains, you certainly won't care about me, right? "

What can Song Qiao say?She didn't expect there to be such a mean-speaking child.Ah Ru also has the impression that she is indeed a bit willful, but she has never had such a bad mouth in the past.

Facing an 11-year-old child, it was impossible for Song Qiao to really care about her, so he could only smooth things over with a smile.

If this was his own child, he would have whipped his butt and blown it to pieces!

Tong Changting cheerfully poured wine for everyone and changed the subject. Ah Ru was also quiet for a while, sitting next to her mother, her eyes rolling around, not knowing what she was thinking.

Tong Shaolin and Lu Fan bought something from the market and took it to the cook. Just after they came back, and before they sat down in the yard, they saw her mother's face was as black as iron, and she approached in a low voice and asked:

"Mother, what's wrong with you? Aye made you angry again?"

Song Qiao whispered about the previous incident.

"So that's what I said, no wonder..." Tong Shaolin smiled when he said this.

"No wonder what?"

Tong Shaolin was still playing tricks, picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip: "You will know after a while, Ma'am."

Tong Shaoxuan came and sat by Tong Shaoqian's hand, leaving the other side for Tang Jianwei.

Tong Shaoqian looked at the dishes on the table one by one, wondering:

"Today, Aunt He is fine, all the dishes she cooks look good. Those who don't know think Tang Sanniang did it."

It was indeed Tang Jianwei who made it. Tong Shaoxuan grabbed a handful of melon seeds, nibbling and waiting for the family banquet to start.

But it was strange that Tang Jianwei suddenly went to work in the kitchen, and he didn't know why.

Tong Shaoxuan still kept his mouth shut and waited and watched.

Ah Ru's mother told her to go back to her room if she was fine, but Ah Ru refused to go back:

"Didn't you ask me to come, Auntie? I'm so hungry, why don't you let me eat?"

"You are the one who eats. The food will come in a while. Can you keep your mouth shut?"

Ah Ru said with a smile: "It depends on whether the food is good or not. Don't worry, mother, you and Aye have taught me to be a sincere person since I was a child. Don't worry, what Ye Niang taught Ah Ru is good. I've always kept it in my heart."

"you!"

Ah Ru's mother was so angry that she was speechless, she was sent to the academy but she didn't learn anything, and it was smoother than anyone else to say a few crooked words!

Everyone came together, and the hot dishes began to be placed on the table one by one. Perhaps it was because of what Aru said just now. Among the cold dishes, except for the cold green vegetables that were caught by someone, the other meat dishes were up to now. Didn't move much either.

Ah Ru took the chopsticks and waited unhurriedly.

She's not stupid, she doesn't want to be that early bird, this time she will wait until someone starts talking about the dishes and tastes, no matter what is said is good or bad, she can make up a few dollars with Tong Wuji.

The first few cold dishes should have exhausted all the thoughts of Tong's cook, there is nothing too particular about cold dishes, as long as they are well placed, they look like something to eat.

But hot dishes are completely different. Whether it is steamed or stewed, everything requires skill and cannot be fooled, let alone more advanced cooking skills such as frying.With the level of the Tongfu cook, Ah Ru didn't think she could eat fried dishes today.

Ah Ru likes to eat, and she has eaten almost all of the well-known restaurants in Dongchun.She is very picky about eating, and now she is waiting to see what the first hot dish will look like.

The first hot dish was brought up together by Ji Xue and Qiu Xin. They each held a wooden plate with a semi-circular copper lid upside down, and what food was inside could not be seen for the time being.

It is precisely because we can't see it that it makes everyone look forward to it even more, guessing what is inside.

Ah Ru sneered in his heart—only doing these boring superficial things.

When the copper lids were lifted together, the gilded sea animal water ripple silver basin was filled with dazzling gold.

The dishes were still hot, and the heat from the copper lid all rose up, and the gold on the plate was even more eye-catching for a while, and even those who didn't notice that the dishes were talking about other things couldn't help but be overwhelmed by the sudden heat. Attracts attention.

"What kind of dish is this? It looks weird."

Song Yu, the elder sister of Song Qiao sitting next to Chang Sun Yin, had her eyes rounded and couldn't help admiring.

Ji Xue said: "Mrs., this dish is called Golden Wanliang, which means that after eating this dish, everyone will be able to make a fortune in the new year!"

Tong Shaoxuan said in his heart: As expected, Tang Jianwei was manipulating the kitchen.

The people at the two tables smiled and nodded after listening, saying that the meaning is really good.

"Then I have to eat one!"

Someone took the lead and put one into the mouth. Ah Ru watched carefully. I don’t know where her cook learned it from. It seems to be quite similar, but in fact It is a test of the skill of adjusting the stuffing, if it is not done well, it will be a disaster.

Unexpectedly, the uncle who was eating the vegetables let out a "huh" and pointed at "Golden Ten Thousand Taels" with chopsticks:

"It tastes really good. This is made by your cook? It's even better than the dishes in restaurants outside!"

Song Qiao didn't expect that Aunt He's dishes would get such a high evaluation, so he responded with a smile, a little curious, and took an entrance, his expression changed immediately, he almost forgot that this was home-cooked food, and shouted a few times The sentence is "delicious", let everyone move their chopsticks and taste it!

The eldest grandson Yin, who had just eaten a few mouthfuls of green vegetables, seemed to like the shape of the sea beast on the silver basin very much. After looking at it for a while, he lowered his chopsticks to "Golden Wanliang".

With the mistress taking the lead, and the meaning of this dish is indeed very good, it looks very appetizing, and the people who were made a little uncomfortable by Ah Ru's few words just now have one dish for each person, and a large plate is quickly served. empty.

There were praises everywhere.

Ah Ru picked up a chopstick and put it on his own plate, and looked at the people around him wonderingly.

This play is too much, right?

Isn't it just a plate of fried tofu, have you never eaten fried tofu?

Ah Ru scoffed at the so-called "harmony" of these adults, but no one dared to tell the truth.

That being the case, leave the truth to me!

As long as I take one bite, I can spray ten sentences in a row!

With the heart of eating the mud from the moat, Ah Ru reluctantly took a bite like a strong man cut off his wrist.

With just one sip, the rich soup actually flowed directly into her mouth.

Unexpectedly, Ah Ru was shocked.

The oily aroma of the outer layer of fried tofu is unexpectedly harmonious with the meaty aroma of the meat filling. The proportion of shiitake mushrooms is not much, but it can subtly increase the taste and reduce the greasiness produced by oil and meat.

The skin of the fried tofu can completely lock the gravy, the fat and lean meat is evenly moist and not overcooked, and the soup is not too hot, which is a good temperature for the entrance.

the most important is……

The flavor of this minced meat is also amazing!

Ah Ru was not satisfied yet, and found that his mouth was empty.

When I wanted to pick up another one, I found that it had already been snatched up.

Ah Ru: "..."

Why are you all moving so fast!

Ah Ru's staring at the plate did not escape her mother's eyes. Her mother ate one just now, and it was unexpectedly delicious, so she asked her:

"Is it delicious?"

Ah Ru put down the chopsticks, and snorted unconvinced: "It's so-so, just a coincidence."

The second hot dish is served again, two crispy geese for one table.

When Ji Xue and Qiu Xin came from the direction of the chef, Ah Ru was attracted by the rosy and shiny surface of the crispy goose.

When it was brought to the table, Ji Xue cut the goose open with a single knife, and the sound of the crispy skin of the goose attracted everyone's admiration.

Ah Ru had already smelled the scent of crispy goose, and leaned forward, wanting to climb directly onto the table.

She knows that crispy goose is the most difficult thing to make. Not only must the skin be crispy and crispy, but also the goose must be soft and tender, and the layers of texture must be full of gravy.

From the beginning of marinating, it is a test of skill. If you want to get a crispy and shiny skin, you must first brush an even layer of maltose water on the goose skin, and wait until it is completely dry before starting to make it.

When making it, you need to pour hot oil on the goose skin spoon by spoon, which is very particular about the strength of your arms, and the hot oil must be poured quite evenly to get a uniform red and bright crisp skin.

Her mother, Ye Niang, once took her to the most famous restaurant in Quandongchun to eat crispy goose, but the taste did not meet her expectations, but this goose...

The marinade is extremely delicious, the skin is burnt and crispy, and the meat is tender and juicy.

Dip it with two matching sauces, one sweet and one salty, and the taste is a hundred times more delicious than that of Chuiyanglou!

Ah Ru swallowed one piece after another, and picked up a whole bowl together with white rice!

Her mother was dumbfounded: "Eat slowly...don't choke."

Ah Ru also felt that he was crazy when he ate.

Why is it so delicious?Even the white rice has distinct grains, and the grains are sweet!

When she put down the empty bowl, there was another plate of Tonghua soft beef intestines on the table.

Ah Ru was stunned.

If she read it correctly, this should be a famous dish in the burning tail banquet. It is marinated and stirred with the bone marrow of a newborn lamb and various fillings, then poured into the intestines of the cow and steamed.

But obviously, this dish has been improved, not steamed, but fried with oil!

This Tonghua soft beef intestine has a richer taste after being stir-fried, but the crunchy chewiness remains the same.

Didn't expect her to be able to eat such high-quality court food in the backcountry of Su County... Wouldn't it be a bluff?

What are these red patches?Is it still cornel?

Ah Ru didn't care about other things for the time being, and asked Ji Xue to help her fill another bowl of rice, then picked up a section of beef intestines, and ate it expectantly.

The first impression is that it is delicious, without any peculiar smell, crisp and tender beyond imagination!Like biting her newborn cousin's little cheek.

Another feeling is spicy...

ho-

so spicy!

Ah Ru ate too fast, and the spicy taste quickly accumulated and exploded in her mouth. She never thought that just a few red slices could trigger such a spicy taste!

"Aniang, I'm hot..." Ah Ru breathed in hissingly, his lips were swollen, and tears rolled in his eyes.

After all, Ah Ru is still a child, and Dongchun people don't like spicy food very much, so this time it is really spicy for her.

Her mother poured a glass of cold water to relieve her spicy heat, when suddenly a snow-white hand handed over another small teacup.

"Drinking cold water can't relieve spicy food, you need to drink salt water to be effective. Try it."

Ah Ru looked up, and was stunned when he and Tang Jianwei looked at each other.

She has never seen such a fairy-looking woman...

Song Qiao smiled and said, "Ah Shen, did you cook today's dishes?"

Tang Jianwei said: "Go back to Aunt, I see that there are so many relatives and friends here today, I'm afraid that Aunt He will be too busy, so I went to help."

Song Qiao's eyes were about to stop laughing, and he kept muttering: "I know it, I know it, my daughter-in-law is really good at craftsmanship, everyone eat more! Ah Shen, you should sit down when you're done with your work, don't be hungry. on."

Someone missed the big wedding yesterday, this is the first time seeing Tang Jianwei, and sighed: "So this is your daughter-in-law from Boling. Not only is she a beautiful talent, but she is also so good at craftsmanship! You are so blessed!"

What, Boling?

Hearing these two words, Ah Ru almost forgot the pain in his mouth in an instant, and looked up at Tang Jianwei.

When she got married that day, she slipped out to play and didn't see the bride herself.

This fairy-like sister is actually from Boling...

No wonder it cooks deliciously and looks beautiful!

My silly cousin is too lucky!

Tong Shaoxuan, who was picking up vegetables, turned his head away and sneezed suddenly.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Tong Shaoxuan, who was chased here and there for a disagreement: Ah Ru, you are still young, and you don't understand many things.

Tang Jianwei (sharpening: Let me tell you, what should she know?

Tong Shaoxuan (shrink)
