Kaifeng House Small Dining Table

Zhan Zhaoben focused all his attention on the tailor's ruler and waist badge. Zhao Hanyan probably expected it when he said it at first, but at that time he only thought that this person had some brains.But what Zhao Hanyan said just now, Zhan Zhao felt that it was fresh, so he looked at Zhao Hanyan twice more.

A pair of jet-black eyes flickered, and when he spoke, he was full of confidence, just like a clever look.This little cook is not only literate, he is not afraid of corpses, and he is also very knowledgeable about solving cases.

Zhan Zhao was wondering how the little cook could have so many abilities, when he heard Gongsun Ce talking.

"I agree with Brother Zhao's statement."

Zhao Long and the others were about to make fun of Zhao Hanyan's nonsense, but they were stunned when they heard Gongsun Ce's words.They all knew who Mr. Gongsun was, and everyone believed him when he spoke.

"I understand a little bit about loving cleanliness. I have killed people and know how to use swords, but I don't understand how you know that the murderer must be strong, conceited, and usually easy-going, good at talking to people. ? And I don’t know much about living in the capital, so how do you know it’s not a foreigner who just came here recently?” Zhao Hu scratched his head almost wanting to break it.

"Old man Zhang is hard of hearing. Even I don't know about sending firewood to Kaifeng Mansion on Fridays every month, but the murderer knows. The blood left on the coir raincoat is in the front, which shows that the murderer cut the victim from the front. If he is not strong enough , People who are confident in their own methods will never kill people head-on."

"It's really easy for the opponent to find, resist and escape. The murderer should have absolute confidence and feel that he will be able to kill the person. Otherwise, if the opponent runs away and calls for help, he will be easily exposed." Zhan Zhao added. Turning to look at Zhao Hanyan, "The reason why Brother Zhao said he was good at talking to people is probably because the two deceased died, one was in a secluded alley, the other was in the back of a tailor's shop, and there was no struggle at the scene. There are no traces, the murderer should try to get close to the deceased first, talk to them about something, and then kill them head-on by surprise."

Gongsun Ce nodded.

Zhao Hu and others suddenly realized that they all looked at Zhao Hanyan in admiration and sighed at his power.

After Zhan Zhao finished speaking, seeing that Zhao Hanyan didn't respond to him, he asked her, "Is that so?"

Zhao Hanyan nodded, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Little cook looks so pretty when he smiles." Zhao Hu didn't hide his mind, and said what he thought.

"What kind of little cook, he's a bit regulated, so he's good at addressing people." Gongsun Ce blamed.

"It's okay, the little cook is very nice." Zhao Hanyan smiled again.

Zhao Hu was even more stunned, and responded with a silly smile and scratched his head.

Gongsun Ce thought about the case, his face was a little dull, and he asked Zhao Han: "Are you sure the murderer will continue to commit crimes, in the next rainy day?"

"The murderer is well versed in this method of killing. Rainy Day will definitely continue to commit crimes, but it's not the next one." Zhao Hanyan promised, "And the next victim is likely to have something in common with the previous two victims, such as bad temper and bullying. "

Gongsun Ce and Zhan Zhao glanced at each other, and then they both looked at Zhao Hanyan at the same time in unison, as if they had discovered something different and seemed to have discovered some treasure.

"It's getting dark," Zhao Hanyan looked at the dark night outside the window, and asked everyone immediately, "Have you used up your dinner, are you hungry?"

"I was busy investigating the case and didn't eat. You really feel hungry when you say that." Zhao Hu said, touching his shriveled belly, hoping to ask Zhao Hanyan, "Could it be that the kitchen can cook food? How about that?" What are you waiting for, hurry up and bring it to us."

Wang Chao, who was hungry when he mentioned eating, immediately voiced his heart: ahhhhh, the little cook is so considerate, I have been hungry for a long time, as long as I can eat the delicious porridge like last time.

Then there were a lot of voices from his heart, and Zhao Hanyan quickly excused himself to leave: "Yes, the stove in the kitchen can't be used yet, but we can use the temporary stove to make some simple noodles for everyone to eat."

Gongsun Ce smiled: "Then I will trouble Brother Zhao."

Heartfelt voice: I don’t know what the taste of the noodles made by Brother Zhao is, and I am looking forward to it.

Zhao Hanyan nodded, and after saying goodbye to everyone, he immediately went back to the kitchen to work, put the six drawers of dumpling that had just been made on the pot, and then wrapped about ten more drawers, and finally wrapped all the fillings.At this time, the steamed dumplings over there are also ready, and then heat up the white rice porridge that was boiled before, add fresh chopped shepherd's purse, adjust the salt and start the pot.

Zhao Hanyan took the lightly salted radish shreds, oily beancurd skin and fungus shreds that had been prepared in the basin before, sprinkled some sesame seeds, peppercorns, small ground sesame oil, and soy sauce and mixed well.After some tasting, I always felt that the taste was not good enough. Although sesame oil, pepper, and shredded radish were marinated for a long time, there was still some earthy and spicy taste of radish.Zhao Hanyan felt dissatisfied, and searched around the seasoning area. In fact, there are many seasonings in ancient times that are not commonly used in modern home cooking, such as basil, basil leaves, dill and so on.When Zhao Hanyan entered the kitchen and started cooking, he tasted every condiment in empty mouth in order to understand the taste.Now she needs a condiment that can cover the spicy smell of radish. Zhao Hanyan grabs a little of each condiment and brings it to her nose to smell, reviewing the taste of these condiments, and finally stops at dill.Zhao Hanyan put the minced dill into his mouth and tasted it. After confirming that the taste was correct, he pinched a little with two fingers, put it in the basin, mixed it again, and tasted it again. .

Zhao Hanyan moved the mixed shredded radish into the plate and garnished with coriander.At this time, Xiuzhu had already filled the vegetable porridge, and sent it together with steamed rice dumplings and mixed vegetables to Sansi Hall, which is where Bao Zheng, Gongsun Ce, Zhan Zhao and others usually deal with cases late at night, not the main hall of Kaifeng Mansion.

Before the meal came, Gongsun Ce and Zhan Zhao were still studying whether there was anything to add to what Zhao Hanyan said just now.Zhao Hu was listening happily, and suddenly remembered something, and slapped down the table.

Everyone looks at him.

"Oh, I forgot to ask the little cook to cook some lighter meals. I just came back from such a bloody place. I really don't have an appetite for meat." Zhao Hu expressed everyone's feelings.

Zhao Hu got up to give instructions, but Zhan Zhao stopped him.

"At this moment, the kitchen has already started cooking. Why do you bother others? If you really can't eat, you just need to drink water."

Zhao Hu stopped awkwardly and sat back down.

"The meal is here." The Chunlaichunqu brothers came in with steamed sasa and porridge respectively.

"At least I can drink porridge, so I don't have to be hungry." Zhao Hu was happy when he saw the vegetable porridge, but when he looked at the steamer, he couldn't help sighing, "Is there steamed buns in the steamer, stuffed with meat?"

Chun Lai shook his head.

Zhao Hu was pleasantly surprised, and after making eye contact with Wang Chao Ma Han and others, he hurriedly asked what it was.

"Steamed dumpling, stuffed with walnut kernels and red bean paste, tastes great." Chunlai happily introduced.

Gongsun Ce nodded beside him, full of approval.Zhan Zhao also realized that this meal was prepared by the little cook with great care, so he sighed to Gongsun Ce: "We seem to have a real treasure in Kaifeng Mansion."

"It is indeed a rare piece of jade in the rough, clever and considerate." Gongsun Ce agreed.

Zhan Zhao retorted in his heart: "I think it's more like a pearl."

As soon as Zhao Hanyan showed up, he knew that he was not a simple ordinary cook. He was not only literate, but also had a decent manner of speaking and manner, and he was also good-looking.It was already a little bit eye-catching when we first met, and it is even more dazzling now.Therefore, it is more appropriate to say that the little cook is a pearl, not a rough jade.For the first time, Zhan Zhao had the idea of ​​refuting Gongsun Ce's comments.

"Master Bao is back."

After the messenger finished speaking, everyone got up and saw Bao Zheng in court clothes pacing in the door.After Bao Zheng ordered everyone to excuse himself, he took off his hat and handed it to the boy. He asked about the case first, and then he saw the steamed dumplings and porridge dishes on the table. Knowing that everyone hadn't eaten yet, he asked everyone to eat first, and he happened to be able to go Change into casual clothes and come again.

Everyone promised that after Bao Zheng left, Gongsun Ce would take everyone to sit down. When eating with chopsticks, Gongsun Ce remembered something and ordered the servant to leave a portion for Bao Zheng to send to him, and then he ate with everyone.

In fact, when Bao Zheng was ordered to face the saint, it happened that it was time to have dinner, and the saint would leave him to eat together as a rule.But when the courtiers and the emperor eat together, it is unlikely that they will be really full.Besides, he had just recovered from his gastrointestinal discomfort before, and he was not used to big fish and meat, so this time he was even more hungry.When he first entered the Sansitang, he could smell the aroma, but he was embarrassed to say that he had eaten the imperial rice and wanted to eat it.Now thinking about the vegetable porridge with a faint rice fragrance, and the dish of mixed shredded radish that looks delicious, it is simply the dish he wants to eat the most right now.

After Bao Zheng changed his clothes, he was feeling regretful, and wanted to drink some water to satisfy his cravings, when he saw the young man bring porridge, saying that it was Mr. Gongsun.Bao Zheng felt very warm in his heart, Mr. Gongsun was indeed his confidant!

Bao Zheng, the little cook, has long experienced the skill of making porridge, and it is very delicious, so after he sat down, he immediately took a sip of the porridge, and it was as delicious as he expected.The rich rice fragrance is accompanied by fresh and tender shredded shepherd's purse, with a little salty taste, which is just right for the mouth. Take another bite of shredded radish, which is sweet, crunchy and numb, very appetizing and refreshing.But after all, it is salty, and the taste is a bit repetitive. Take a bite with the dumplings, and the sweet bean paste filling with a light osmanthus fragrance flows naturally into the mouth, and the sweetness immediately permeates between the lips and teeth.Take another sip of vegetable porridge and eat some shredded radish. The deliciousness of different texture levels is superimposed in the mouth, creating a huge sense of satisfaction, which instantly occupies the whole body.

A small supper satisfies everyone.

The author has something to say:

Bao Zheng: "It's so delicious, give the chef a thumbs up!!!"

Gongsun Ce: "The reason why I say jade in the rough is to emphasize that I am the first person to praise her!"

Zhan Zhao (smiling face): "You don't need to tell me that I have already seen how powerful she is!"

Zhao Hu (dissatisfied): "No, no, I am the one who admires Little Cook the most. I fell in love with her the first time I saw her. Don't grab her!"

Chao Mahan and others: "I express my dissatisfaction, we don't want to be a supporting role, we want to grab it!"
