Geng Yi thought for a while, the recipe that must be experienced to lose weight: chicken breast!
It's just that this stuff is really unpalatable. She has tried it herself before, and no matter how she cooks it, it's always not very tasty. It depends on whether Chef Ma can bring the chicken breast back to life and make it more delicious.
Therefore, she thought of another one, which was chicken floss!
This thing is made of chicken thigh meat, remove the bones and then chop it up, wrap it in egg white, fry it in a pan until golden, then pick it up, add sesame oil, cooking wine, winter bamboo shoots, ginger and onion, etc., and put the removed bones On top, add a large bowl of water to steam thoroughly.
When you want to eat, throw away the chicken bones, then tear the chicken into strips, whether you make chicken shredded noodles or eat it directly, it’s all a dish.
Geng Yi thought about it, and he could also make chicken breast and chicken leg meat together, so that the taste would be better and it would not make people fat.
In addition to this, she also thought of a dish, and that was shrimp cakes!
Shrimp is high in protein and good in nutrition. It is most suitable for a half-grown kid like Elder Brother Shi. It doesn't make you fat after eating, and it tastes good.
The steps to make shrimp cakes are simple. Chop the marinated shrimp meat into the dough, knead it into a small ball, put it in a frying pan, and fry it until it turns golden on both sides. It is crispy and delicious. It is fragrant, and there is not much shrimp in it, so you won't feel that you have eaten too much meat.
After all, the dough and the shrimp meat are kneaded together. When eating, it is actually not clear which is the dough and which is the meat. It is not so obvious when you eat it.
Although this dish looks not difficult, if there is too much shrimp, the dough will not be formed.
If there is less shrimp meat, it will only taste like noodles, although it is crispy but not so fragrant, it is a clever skill of the chef.
There are two people, the tenth elder brother and the fourth elder brother. One and a half-year-old boy has a big appetite, and a young man in his twenties has a big appetite. The two dishes may be a little short. Geng Yi thought about adding another silver carp tofu, fresh silver carp Fry it on the oil pan, put some sauce and stew it with tofu, it is not too fragrant.
I heard that Elder Brother Shi is not very good at picking fish bones. You can also cut silver carp into slices of fish, stir-fry a little and then stew with tofu. However, the fish should not be left for too long, otherwise the fish will be old. food.
The tofu is white, and the fish is also white, which is confusing when put together.The tofu is full of fish juice, and it tastes like fish meat. It may be tofu if it looks like meat. It seems to have meat but not a lot.
Add a dish of vinegared cabbage, and it will be complete with both meat and vegetables.
It is nutritious and light, and it is not easy to gain weight!
These can also be eaten with rice, which is perfect for warming up in winter.
Brother Ten saw a dish of fish, but he doesn't really like fish very much.
But seeing that the fourth elder brother was eating deliciously, the fish was boned again, and it was not troublesome to eat, so he tried to eat with a piece of fish. It has no fishy smell, is fresh and tender, and it melts in the mouth. The tofu stewed with fish and meat, the tofu has the umami taste of fish juice, and it goes well with rice.
Brother Ten poured the fish juice on the rice, and the sweetness of the rice grains covered with the fish juice was even more delicious.
The vinegared cabbage is appetizing, and the shrimp cakes are crunchy. Brother Ten can eat several pieces alone and can't stop.
And the portion is not too much, it is just right for the two of them to eat, otherwise Brother Ten feels that he can have another table!
However, it feels that the meat is not too much. It can be full without being greasy, and it doesn't look too fat. He still likes it very much.
Elder Brother Ten rubbed his belly and said, "Brother Ninth said that the food in Brother Fourth's house is good. I didn't believe it at the time, and almost missed it."
What a pity to miss out on delicious food!
In fact, the food in the palace is not much worse, after all, the imperial dining room has gathered the best cooks in the country.It's just that the imperial dining room pays attention to fine details, each dish looks beautiful and tastes good, but it lacks a little bit of smoke and fire.
It’s not as casual as the fourth elder brother’s eating here. The two of them can sit and eat facing each other. It’s okay to sweat profusely. You don’t have to worry about the embarrassment of the waiters around you staring at them. Ten elder brothers eat much more happily .
But after he finished eating, he rubbed his stomach and sighed again, and he heard the fourth elder brother say: "Tenth brother, sit down for a while, and then just take a walk with me to digest food."
The two sat for a while, looking at each other silently, the fourth elder brother thought for a while, and then talked about the homework that he had to come to the husband today: "Tenth brother, take a look when you have time, don't fall behind too much, and you will not be able to keep up later." of."
Elder Brother Ten was listless, afraid that he would be detained in the study all afternoon to do his homework.
Fortunately, the fourth elder brother was not so mad. After taking a walk, I asked the tenth elder brother to go back to take a nap, and then get up to do an hour of homework: "If I do well, I will take the tenth brother to the school grounds to ride a horse and relax."
You can't just eat and sleep and then sit still, you still have to combine movement and stillness.
The tenth elder brother was happy when he heard it, and said anxiously: "Fourth brother, I am not very good at riding and shooting."
The fourth elder brother said: "What are you afraid of, which brother didn't practice his riding and shooting slowly? The thirteenth brother was normal before, but after working hard for a while, he looks decent. I sent someone into the palace to call the thirteenth brother , in the afternoon, you can compete with the thirteenth brother."
The tenth elder brother knew that the fourteenth elder brother beat the thirteenth elder brother for a while, and the fourteenth elder brother was sent to Xidaying to suffer and was punished. After the thirteenth elder brother recovered from the injury on his face, he hurried to start Seek guidance from Master Wu.
It wasn't long before the thirteenth elder brother's riding and archery skills came up, and the tenth elder brother secretly thought that he, the elder brother, couldn't fall behind too much.
The fourth elder brother picked a docile maroon mare for the tenth elder brother in the schoolyard in the afternoon. It was not tall, and the tenth elder brother could get on the horse by himself and trot slowly.
He watched Elder Brother Ten run around, with smiles on his round face, obviously very happy to come out for a run.
The thirteenth elder brother hurried over, and the tenth elder brother hurriedly stopped the mare to greet him: "The thirteenth brother is here, do you want to run together?"
Hearing this, Brother Thirteen nodded and said, "Okay."
The two of them ran for a lap, and the thirteenth elder brother was even more exquisite in riding skills. The horse ran so fast that the tenth elder brother couldn't catch up no matter how much he patted the horse.
Obviously, his riding and shooting was not bad before, so why is he so far behind Brother Thirteen?
"Brother Thirteen, how did you practice? Your riding skills have improved by leaps and bounds?"
Elder Brother Thirteen smiled and said, "Just spend more time practicing, and then I will ask Master Wu to correct me."
Just by practicing hard by himself, it is very likely that he will not be able to discover his faults, and it will be different if someone is watching from the side.
The tenth elder brother nodded thoughtfully, thinking that he would ask Master Wu to correct his riding and shooting when he went back for a while, then he heard the thirteenth elder brother say: "Ten elder brother, your complexion is much better than before. Are you ok?"
Before hearing that the tenth elder brother didn't want to eat, the fourth elder brother was the one to do it, so the emperor waved him and sent him to Sibeile's mansion for a few days. The thirteenth elder brother was envious when he heard about it.
He really wants to live with the fourth elder brother, eat together, talk about homework, and practice riding and shooting together. It must be very interesting!
There is also the copybook of the fourth elder brother. The thirteenth elder brother has long wanted to copy it. The emperor praised the fourth elder brother for his good handwriting, and he had to work hard to do it.
The thirteenth elder brother knew that the tenth elder brother and the fourth elder brother were eating together, punching together and writing big characters in the study, and his face was full of envy: "That's great, if I tell Huang Ama to live with the fourth elder brother, I don't know Will Huang Ama nod her head?"
Elder Brother Shi didn't understand: "I was called up early in the morning to punch. Although I ate well, I wrote thirty big characters in the morning and had to do my homework in the afternoon to go out for a run. What's the point?"
He couldn't understand, how could Brother Thirteen wish he could do this instead of himself, isn't he tired?
The thirteenth elder brother has an expression of "you don't know how to be blessed while you are in the blessing": "The fourth elder brother's copybook is hard to find, so he just gave it to the tenth brother to copy it, how wonderful! The homework, the tenth brother's original copybook Homework is just so-so, if you don’t go to class and don’t do your homework, it’s not like you’re going to fall behind a lot, and you have to be overtaken by the younger brother.”
Really surpassed by the younger brother who is several years younger, can brother ten still hold on to his face?
"Isn't the fourth brother doing it for the benefit of the tenth brother? Otherwise, why would he go out of his way to ask the teacher for his homework, and even ask me for a question. If the tenth brother doesn't know it, he can answer it for you."
So the thirteenth elder brother can't be envious, the fourth elder brother is practicing, eating and playing with him!
The tenth elder brother thinks about it, and the fourth elder brother is hardworking enough.
Obviously it was the emperor's intention to throw people out to make the fourth elder brother distressed. Although he had a headache, he honestly took over the tenth elder brother and took good care of him. He didn't miss any of his food, homework, and health.
The fourth elder brother could actually take the person in, and then tell Si Fujin to take care of him a little more. It is enough to ask a few questions occasionally. Anyway, the tenth elder brother will go back to the palace after staying for a few days, so there is no need to bother so much.
In particular, it's not a thankless task for him to take care of Elder Brother Ten's food, but also take care of boxing and homework.
The tenth elder brother was also a little depressed at first, but when he saw the thirteenth elder brother looking at him enviously, he changed his mind and thought that he was indeed blessed and didn't know the blessing.
There is a person who thinks about all aspects of himself, nagging and even teaching a lesson, isn't that caring and valued?
That is to say, the fourth elder brother is willing to bother when the tenth elder brother is a close brother.
Otherwise, the fourth elder brother is so busy, why would he need to ask everything, and even take the tenth elder brother to fight, eat and go out for a horse race?
The fourth elder brother probably also understands that he is not good at words, and it is a bit embarrassing to have nothing to say with the tenth elder brother, so he specially sent someone into the palace to invite the thirteenth elder brother over.
Elder Brother Shi also knew good and bad, sniffed and said, "Then I have to practice calligraphy and do my homework well, so that my husband can praise me when I go back."
Elder Brother Thirteen felt that this request might be a little difficult, but he didn't hit Elder Brother Ten too hard: "If Elder Brother Ten can't do it, he can ask Fourth Brother. If Fourth Brother doesn't have time, he can also ask Third Brother."
The tenth brother thinks about the third brother and forget it. Although the knowledge of the third brother is good, but the words are too deep, and the meaning is not understood: "Then I'll ask the ninth brother and forget it."
Brother Thirteen's expression is indescribable. Although Brother Nine is good at arithmetic, I heard that he has recently started to learn Latin by himself. He writes decently, and there is no problem with simple oral communication.
The problem is that Brother Nine's interests are too broad, and he doesn't pay much attention to his homework. He can only say that he is barely passable. If he is asked to teach Brother Ten, isn't that a mistake?
Brother Thirteen held back for a while before saying, "Brother Ten should ask Brother Four or Brother Eight."
Elder Brother Ten sighed and said, "Big Brother is too busy recently, busy collecting bills, and Fourth Brother doesn't have that much time."
But he lives with the fourth elder brother, so it is much easier to see the fourth elder brother, so he should be able to ask.
The two of them ran for a while, horses and arrows, the thirteenth elder brother held the bow, and the feathered arrow hit the bull's-eye, he couldn't help showing a frustrated look.
The fourth elder brother watched from behind and patted the thirteenth elder brother on the shoulder and said: "You are too nervous here, relax a little, it will be fine next time."
The tenth elder brother was not as proficient in drawing the bow as the thirteenth elder brother, so the fourth elder brother went over to correct his posture, and the feathered arrow actually hit the target. Although there was still a distance from the target, he was very happy.
After all, he was absent-minded in archery before, and he missed the target eight out of ten times. Master Wu was also desperate for Elder Brother Ten.
The fourth elder brother said: "You can't lose your riding and shooting skills. You are too hungry and have no strength. Raise your arms a little bit. Yes, that's it."
Elder Brother Shi shot the arrow again, this time the feathered arrow was closer to the target, he smiled and said: "It seems that I still have talent, just practice more."
The fourth elder brother smiled and nodded: "Yes, the tenth brother did a good job this time, just practice a few more times with the thirteenth brother."
Elder Brother Ten probed and said, "Practice a few more times, will you be able to catch up with Thirteenth Brother?"
Elder Brother Thirteen smiled slightly beside him and said, "Brother Ten, riding and archery skills are not something you just talk about."
His expression of "Let the horse come over, who is afraid of whom" made Elder Brother Shi take it seriously.
Elder Brother Ten mumbled, "I am an elder brother anyway, how can I lose to my younger brother."
Every time he draws the bow, he adjusts it, and with the correction and guidance of the fourth elder brother, the feeling of the bow is getting better and better, and he will never miss the target again. The distance from the target is getting closer and closer.
But on Brother Thirteen's side, he has already started to hit the bull's-eye frequently, and he basically hasn't left too far.
The two little ones chased after each other, and finally the tenth elder brother's arms were sore, and he couldn't pull the bow and arrow in his hand, so the fourth elder brother stopped: "Okay, it's almost time, thirteenth brother, why don't you follow me?" Go back and have dinner together?"
The thirteenth elder brother nodded and smiled repeatedly: "Then the younger brother will bother the fourth brother."
When they went back to wait for the meal, the fourth elder brother let the sweaty two take a bath and changed their clothes, and then asked Su Peisheng to bring two relatively strong eunuchs to pinch the arms of the tenth and thirteenth elder brothers and explain He said: "After practicing archery for a long time in the afternoon, my arm will be sore and sore tomorrow. It's better to pinch it and relax it."
The tenth elder brother only felt that the fourth elder brother was too thoughtful. When he first squeezed his arms, his arms were so sore, but after that, he gradually relaxed a lot. He was a little drowsy, but his stomach was growling with hunger.
"Fourth brother, what's for dinner tonight?"
The fourth elder brother really didn't know about this. When he turned back to the kitchen, the food was brought up. It was a plate of spinach and fish ball soup.
Another eunuch came up with a big pot, which shocked Elder Brother Shi: "What is this?"
Chef Ma who followed him replied respectfully: "Brother Ten, this is ground pot chicken."
He reached out and lifted the lid, revealing the true contents of the pot.
"This chicken is a young free-range chicken. First, the chicken is chopped into pieces and then fried in a pan with several kinds of mushrooms. Add ginger and spring onions and fry until golden brown. Then add chicken soup, corn and winter bamboo shoots, and finally add Stew with washed cabbage."
Brother Ten squinted his eyes when he smelled it, but he was a little afraid to stretch out his chopsticks.
It was the fourth elder brother who first picked up the chopsticks and picked up the chopsticks for him, and then the thirteenth elder brother, and then greeted: "Don't worry about eating, come back from riding and shooting, it's okay to eat such a little."
Elder Brother Ten thinks about it too. Today, he rode a horse for several laps and practiced archery for a long time. The exhaustion is big enough. It doesn’t hurt to eat a little, so he started to eat with peace of mind.
The chicken is full of juice, even the winter bamboo shoots and cabbage. One bite of meat, one bite of vegetables and one bite of rice, Elder Ten enjoyed eating it.
Brother Thirteen ate much more slowly, but the chopsticks never stopped.
Elder Brother Ten thinks it’s boring to eat alone, but three people at a table can eat. If you have a chopstick and I have a chopstick, it will be much more lively.
He asked the chopsticks to slow down, maybe the meat he liked would be gone!
The thirteenth elder brother looked thin, and he was also a very edible age. The three of them ate a whole table of food in a daze, and didn't feel particularly full.
Seeing that the time was almost up and the gate of the palace was about to be locked, Brother Thirteen reluctantly returned to the palace.
Seeing the resentful look in his three steps and turning back, Elder Ten was happy, feeling that he had taken advantage of it, and Dian Dian sent Elder Thirteen to the door, as if he was the master here.
The thirteenth elder brother's eyes became more resentful. Fortunately, the fourth elder brother sent a copybook of his own in order to appease the younger brother. The thirteenth elder brother was happy now, and got into the carriage with the copybook and left.
Elder Brother Ten was tired all day and was full after eating. He fell asleep not long after returning home, almost falling asleep with his pillow on his head.
Waking up in a daze the next day, he saw the fourth elder brother coming in with air-conditioning all over his body.
Thinking of it being so early in the morning, the fourth elder brother would come to wake him up before going to the morning court. He must have woken up much earlier than him. The tenth elder brother got up in a jerk, and consciously went to wash up without the fourth elder brother's urging, and then punched.
The fourth elder brother looked very satisfied with the tenth elder brother, and the tenth elder brother woke up earlier in the next few days.
Every morning when the fourth elder brother passed by, the tenth elder brother had already got up, dressed and washed to wait for him.
When Geng Yi saw Elder Brother Ten again half a month later, he obviously felt that Elder Brother Ten's figure had become thinner, from a chubby fat man to a sturdy little fat man.
Elder Brother Ten is actually not very satisfied, feeling that he is still a bit fat.
It was still the fourth elder brother who said with a blank expression: "You eat too much snacks in the palace on weekdays, and you don't like to move, that's why you got fat. Think about how long it took you to get fat after eating, how could you lose weight completely in just half a month?" go down."
It's not impossible to lose weight immediately, isn't it the fastest to cut the meat directly?
After hitting him with a stick, the fourth elder brother gave him some sweetness again and said: "However, the tenth brother has worked hard for a while, and he has lost a lot of weight in half a month. If he continues with this routine, he will gradually lose weight."
Elder Brother Ten eats here every day except for meals, almost no desserts, and the amount of activity is also high enough. Originally, he was a half-sized child with a high metabolism, and he gradually lost weight.
As long as he doesn't worry, don't frantically try to starve to death like before, otherwise he will starve himself to death, and he may lose weight in a short time, and he will easily become edema and look fat, and even make himself sick from starvation.
Elder Brother Ten heard that something was wrong, he suddenly raised his head and said: "Brother Fourth, are you going to let me go back to the palace?"
The fourth elder brother looked at him suspiciously and said: "Yes, the tenth brother can eat and sleep now and has lost a little weight, so he should go back to the palace. Otherwise, he will not go to class all the time, and he will be far behind in his homework. After returning, the tenth brother You can't be lazy, or you'll have to gain weight again."
The tenth elder brother's expression was exactly the same as that of the thirteenth elder brother before. Living here with the fourth elder brother was so comfortable that he didn't even want to go back to the palace in the blink of an eye for half a month.
Think about living alone after returning to the palace, no one will eat with him, no one will practice boxing with him in the morning, and he will not be able to practice riding and shooting together in the afternoon.
The fourth elder brother said: "The thirteenth brother is also in the palace, the tenth brother can practice riding and shooting with him."
The tenth elder brother thinks about it too, he has improved a lot recently, so he has to compare with the thirteenth elder brother again to see who is the elder brother!
So he wasn't depressed any more, and happily got on the carriage and went back to the palace.
The fourth elder brother was really relieved to stand where he was. He was really afraid that the tenth elder brother would not want to go back to the palace, and then cried and insisted on staying, so he was in a dilemma. Should he agree or not?
The emperor had made an exception for Elder Brother Ten to leave the palace for such a long time. Now that he has recovered, it would be inappropriate for him to continue living outside the palace.
Elder Brother Ten finally returned to the palace, and everyone in Sibeile's house finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Especially the pressure in the kitchen was the greatest. Chef Ma felt that the hair on his head was getting thinner, and every time he was afraid that the food he cooked would not suit Elder Brother Ten's appetite.
Fortunately, Geng Yi opened his mind to him, and the fourth elder brother took the tenth elder brother to boxing and riding and shooting every day, so the exhaustion made him hungry quickly, and he no longer yelled and refused to eat.
Brother Nine learned that Brother Ten was back, so he hurried over, seeing that Brother Ten had indeed lost weight, he was surprised and said, "Brother Ten has really lost weight."
He thought that the fourth elder brother would not really force the tenth elder brother to work hard, otherwise how could the tenth elder brother lose weight?
Elder Brother Ten rubbed his stomach and laughed, "Brother Ninth, you are right, the food at Brother Fourth's house is really good."
He hurried to see the emperor, who was also surprised when the emperor saw Elder Brother Shi who had lost a lot of weight, and said with a smile: "Xiao Shi looks much stronger, it seems that you are doing well with Lao Si."
Knowing that the fourth elder brother had a way to restrain the skinny monkey, the tenth elder brother, the emperor stroked his beard and smiled.
Moreover, the emperor was even happier when he learned that Elder Brother Shi had not failed in his homework and that his riding and shooting skills had improved.
The fourth elder brother had done a lot of hard work, and the emperor rewarded him with a lot of things, ranging from jade, calligraphy and painting to medicinal materials and food materials, and the whole cart was sent by the eunuch Gao.
Eunuch Gao came with a cart full of rewards, the fourth elder brother thanked him and accepted it, and Su Peisheng gave Eunuch Gao a small purse.Although the inside is light, you can tell it's a bank note as soon as you touch it, and the smile on Eunuch Gao's lips deepens.
Eunuch Gao said: "Si elder brother, this basket of red fish is still fresh, and it was sent all the way from the sea in a hurry, so it must be disposed of as soon as possible."
Otherwise, the fish will not be fresh and taste bad.
A large cart of live fish was sent all the way to the capital, and only a small half of it was still alive.
Two baskets of live fish were sent to the empress dowager, the emperor kept two baskets, and gave one basket to the fourth elder brother, and one basket to the prince. The harem concubines and other elder brothers are not enough, and it is impossible to have one basket each , can only be divided according to the article.
Su Peisheng hurriedly sent the basket of red fish to the kitchen, and asked Chef Ma to deal with it quickly.
When Cook Ma saw it, he decisively decided to make a whole fish feast, and the rest of the fish would be washed and marinated, and it was okay to make bad fish.
Some fish can still be processed alive. After deboning, the meat is minced and made into fish balls, which can be frozen for a while in winter.In the future, eating a pot or making soup with fish balls is so fresh that people want to swallow their tongues.
The kitchen was busy for several hours before all the fish were processed. Cooks Ma and Cook started cooking with their apprentices.
Hearing that there was going to be a whole fish feast, Geng Yi had come to the main courtyard early to wait.
She came earlier than Song Gege, Song Gege came in and saw Geng Yi's face could not help being surprised: "Sister Geng came so early."
Geng Yi smiled, there was something delicious, she couldn't stay in the house, so she hurried over.
Li Gege and Niu Gulu Gege soon followed, and Li Gege was holding a little girl carved in pink and jade, timidly sticking behind her and looking at Song Gege and Geng Yi.
Geng Yi suddenly realized, this is the fourth elder brother's daughter Huai Ke, right?
It's just that it's been almost a month since she came here, and it's the first time she's seen Li Gege's daughter.
The nanny behind Li Gege hugged Huai Ke and sat on the chair, and Li Gege sat down next to him. Seeing Geng Yi's eyes, he said: "It was cold before, and Huai Ke coughed a little when he went out and was blown by the cold wind. She just stayed in the house and didn't come out. The weather is not so cold now, the wind is not strong, and seeing that her cough has recovered, I brought her here."
Huai Ke was clothed thickly, and she was chubby, and it was a bit difficult to even reach out. I don't know how many clothes Li Gege put on her.
After entering, he took off his cloak, and at first glance, there were still several pieces inside.
As soon as Geng Yi heard it, he understood that Huai Ke might be young, and his respiratory tract might not be very good. It is easy to cough when he catches a cold when he is blown by the cold wind.
But she saw that the red light didn't appear, and Huai Ke's complexion was okay, so it's probably not a big problem, and they should all be healed.
After all, the winter in Beijing this year is indeed a bit colder than in previous years, and it is only natural for children to be sensitive and uncomfortable.
It was Li Gege who was quite nervous, and Huai Ke was not allowed to come out for the New Year's Eve dinner.
It’s just that Huai Ke’s cough may not be healed before, and Hong Hui is also there, so it won’t be good if he gets sick.
After a few people sat down for a while, Nanny Liao came to invite them to a seat, Si elder brother and Si Fujin also came over.
Hong Hui was not carried out by the nanny, it was too early for him to eat fish at his age, and he was afraid of making a fuss to eat it when he smelled the smell, so he simply watched and fed some meat paste to the nanny.
The fourth elder brother sat down with Si Fujin, and Si Fujin sat on the left hand side of the fourth elder brother. The fourth elder brother motioned for Geng Yi to sit on his right hand side, and Li Gege took his daughter to sit on the other side of Geng Yi.
On the other side of the Four Fujins was Song Gege, and then Niu Gulu Gege took his seat.
The kitchen led the apprentices and eunuchs to serve the dishes one by one, and the first dish was steamed fish.
Afraid that there are too many fish bones, it is not easy to eat, and steamed fish cannot remove the fish bones before steaming, it is easy to steam, so Chef Ma had an idea, and thought of frying the red fish in the oil pan for a while first, and the fish bones Fried and crispy and then steamed, the fish tastes crunchy on the outside and the bones inside are also crunchy, and it doesn't hurt at all to eat.
Even the little Huai Ke can eat this fish without fear of getting stuck in it.
Geng Yi ate the fish really well, and Chef Ma's skills were really good.If the fried fish is overcooked, the fish meat will be old. If it is not fried enough, the fish bones will not be crisp enough, and it will still be a bit sticky.
Now the fish bones are not only crisp, but the fish meat is still fresh and tender, which is really amazing.
She ate half of the red fish in one go, and served the second course.
It is to cut the red fish into slices, put them into the chicken soup with ham and dried bamboo shoots and cook for a while.
No wonder the dish is served now instead of directly following the previous one, because the fish fillet tastes the most delicious when it is just cooked, and it will get stale after a long time. It is just right to serve it at this time.
The base soup has ham and dried bamboo shoots, the chicken soup is double delicious, the fish fillets are very tender, and the fish bones are cleanly shaved, and Huai Ke is also hard-pressed to eat while being served by the mother behind him.
Probably because of Huai Ke's presence, the dishes were not spicy, so they were much lighter.
Then there are fish ball soup, sweet and sour fish fillets, fried fish cakes and fried fish soup. A table of dishes includes frying, frying, steaming and boiling, which can be described as extremely attentive.
The last dish served was a bowl of noodles. Geng Yi was also surprised that the noodles looked ordinary and couldn't compare with the previous dishes.
But she ate a chopstick and was immediately surprised: "Is this fish noodles?"
Chef Ma was waiting in the corner, showing up at any time for introductions. When he heard Geng Yi's question, he quickly replied: "Yes, Master Geng is very powerful. He ate it in one go. This is exactly the fish noodle."
Geng Yi couldn't help feeling that Chef Ma really knows everything.
Fish noodle is actually minced fish meat mixed into the dough, and then kneaded into noodles.
There is fish in the noodles, and it has the umami taste of fish and the strength of noodles. It looks simple, but it is not easy to make.
Geng Yi had heard of this dish before, but it was a pity that he didn't have time to eat it, but he didn't expect to eat it now.
After eating the fish noodles, tonight's whole fish feast is over. The whole basket of fish is almost finished, and the rest are made into fish balls for a few days to eat.
Li Gege pushed his daughter who was dozing off after eating too much, and Huai Ke woke up with a jolt, and immediately got up and ran to the fourth elder brother to hug his arm, and said in a milky voice: "Ama, it's been a long time Come see me."
The fourth elder brother touched Huai Ke's head, saw that her complexion was ruddy, she was really well, and said with a smile: "I will see you some other day, it's getting late, you should go back to sleep."
Huai Ke timidly looked back at Li Gege, Li Gege was a little frustrated, but let the mother hold her daughter, got up and said goodbye.
She was about to leave, Niu Gulu Gege beside her also got up and went back, and Song Gege was no exception.
Song Gege saw that the fourth elder brother seemed to have something to say to Si Fujin, so he stayed soon.
Just as Geng Yi was about to get up, Si elder brother sat down again with his shoulders pressed down.
After the others left, the fourth elder brother said: "Before I was busy, and then the tenth brother came to live again, so I couldn't get away for a while. The business of Yurong Ointment went quite smoothly, and with the help of the ninth brother, this The business has stabilized."
"The prescription of Yurong Gao was given by you, and Geng Yin was also recommended by you. You will get [-]% of the monthly profit of this business. Fujin helps select and arrange the manpower, which is hard work and also earns [-]% of the profit."
Geng Yi was taken aback for a moment, his face not showing, but his heart was full of joy.
Although she didn't go out to see how the shop's business was going, she heard from the errand runner Xiao Li that the supply of Yurong Ointment was in short supply outside, and there were a lot of people queuing up to buy it.These [-]% may not seem like a lot, but the huge shipments are quite a lot.
Not to mention that the price of a jar of Yurong Paste is not low, but the cost is actually not high. Even if the beautiful glass jars are included, Geng Yi has made a lot of money!
Thinking about her sitting in the mansion, a large amount of money will fly into her arms every month, it's so refreshing!
Fujin declined and said: "Master, I just did this with a little effort, and I am really ashamed of this achievement."
The fourth elder brother smiled and said, "Just keep it."
Seeing his insistence, Fujin didn't refuse any more.
Looking back, the fourth elder brother said to Geng Yi in private: "I originally wanted to give you [-]% of the profit, but it was too eye-catching. In addition, I will take half of the profit from me to reward Geng Yin and a few nuns who teach the female workers."
After all, there are rewards and punishments in order to mobilize the enthusiasm of the subordinates.
In fact, Geng Yi was already very satisfied with getting [-]% and getting [-]% was a bit greedy. After all, she just came up with a recipe and recommended Geng Yin to help. The rest were done by Si elder brother and Si Fujin.
"Master, two achievements are very good."
Seeing her smiling, the fourth elder brother pinched Geng Yi's cheek and said, "Okay, at the end of every month, let Geng Yin send someone to deliver the bank notes."
Geng Yi is very happy, it seems that her small coffers are getting fuller and fuller!
The fourth elder brother saw her happy face, so he naturally laughed too.
They are happy here, but the eighth brother is much more worried.
The eighth elder brother followed Prince Yu to check the accounts. There were too many debts. It was impossible for Prince Yu to ask for it in person, so he had to go.
But the eighth elder brother didn't want to offend people very much, so he could only come to the door politely, and then he was greeted politely and then sent out politely. Both sides were smiling, but there was almost no progress in the arrears.
Either they said that they couldn't get it out, or they said they would delay it for a few days, or they only gave a sporadic part, just like sending beggars.
It's just that the eighth elder brother is not good at tearing faces with them. After all, everyone is from a distinguished family and cannot be offended to death.
That’s not to mention, the eighth elder brother finally found time to run to the West Daying, and he was terribly tired after climbing the mountain. The fourteenth elder brother’s matchup was also over. second.
Elder Fourteen was a little regretful, thinking that next time he must take the first place, so he didn't want to go back to the palace.
The eighth elder brother tried to persuade him again and again, but he didn't know what to do with the fourteenth elder brother.
He really couldn't persuade him, and he was too tired, so he could only say: "I can't say it's the fourteenth brother, but I really can't, let the fourth brother come over later."
Elder Fourteen shrank his neck and said, "Fourth Brother is so busy, he probably doesn't have time to pick me up?"
The eighth elder brother thought about the recent past, so he nodded and said, "fourth brother is indeed very busy these days. He has to do business with the ninth brother, and also takes care of the tenth brother who lives in his house for half a month..."
The fourteenth brother was not happy when he heard it: "What, I haven't lived in the fourth brother's house yet, and the tenth brother still lives for half a month? Why is the ninth brother still doing business with the fourth brother?"
I heard that the tenth elder brother lives in the fourth elder brother's house, and the fourth elder brother eats and plays with him and teaches riding and shooting skills, so the fourteenth elder brother can't sit still.Or should he go back and tell the emperor that he will also go to stay with the fourth elder brother for a few days?
Although his riding and archery skills are much better than that of the tenth elder brother, he doesn't need the fourth elder brother's guidance, but he has been in Xi Daying for so long, and his homework has also fallen behind. Shouldn't the fourth elder brother help guide him?
It's just that this stuff is really unpalatable. She has tried it herself before, and no matter how she cooks it, it's always not very tasty. It depends on whether Chef Ma can bring the chicken breast back to life and make it more delicious.
Therefore, she thought of another one, which was chicken floss!
This thing is made of chicken thigh meat, remove the bones and then chop it up, wrap it in egg white, fry it in a pan until golden, then pick it up, add sesame oil, cooking wine, winter bamboo shoots, ginger and onion, etc., and put the removed bones On top, add a large bowl of water to steam thoroughly.
When you want to eat, throw away the chicken bones, then tear the chicken into strips, whether you make chicken shredded noodles or eat it directly, it’s all a dish.
Geng Yi thought about it, and he could also make chicken breast and chicken leg meat together, so that the taste would be better and it would not make people fat.
In addition to this, she also thought of a dish, and that was shrimp cakes!
Shrimp is high in protein and good in nutrition. It is most suitable for a half-grown kid like Elder Brother Shi. It doesn't make you fat after eating, and it tastes good.
The steps to make shrimp cakes are simple. Chop the marinated shrimp meat into the dough, knead it into a small ball, put it in a frying pan, and fry it until it turns golden on both sides. It is crispy and delicious. It is fragrant, and there is not much shrimp in it, so you won't feel that you have eaten too much meat.
After all, the dough and the shrimp meat are kneaded together. When eating, it is actually not clear which is the dough and which is the meat. It is not so obvious when you eat it.
Although this dish looks not difficult, if there is too much shrimp, the dough will not be formed.
If there is less shrimp meat, it will only taste like noodles, although it is crispy but not so fragrant, it is a clever skill of the chef.
There are two people, the tenth elder brother and the fourth elder brother. One and a half-year-old boy has a big appetite, and a young man in his twenties has a big appetite. The two dishes may be a little short. Geng Yi thought about adding another silver carp tofu, fresh silver carp Fry it on the oil pan, put some sauce and stew it with tofu, it is not too fragrant.
I heard that Elder Brother Shi is not very good at picking fish bones. You can also cut silver carp into slices of fish, stir-fry a little and then stew with tofu. However, the fish should not be left for too long, otherwise the fish will be old. food.
The tofu is white, and the fish is also white, which is confusing when put together.The tofu is full of fish juice, and it tastes like fish meat. It may be tofu if it looks like meat. It seems to have meat but not a lot.
Add a dish of vinegared cabbage, and it will be complete with both meat and vegetables.
It is nutritious and light, and it is not easy to gain weight!
These can also be eaten with rice, which is perfect for warming up in winter.
Brother Ten saw a dish of fish, but he doesn't really like fish very much.
But seeing that the fourth elder brother was eating deliciously, the fish was boned again, and it was not troublesome to eat, so he tried to eat with a piece of fish. It has no fishy smell, is fresh and tender, and it melts in the mouth. The tofu stewed with fish and meat, the tofu has the umami taste of fish juice, and it goes well with rice.
Brother Ten poured the fish juice on the rice, and the sweetness of the rice grains covered with the fish juice was even more delicious.
The vinegared cabbage is appetizing, and the shrimp cakes are crunchy. Brother Ten can eat several pieces alone and can't stop.
And the portion is not too much, it is just right for the two of them to eat, otherwise Brother Ten feels that he can have another table!
However, it feels that the meat is not too much. It can be full without being greasy, and it doesn't look too fat. He still likes it very much.
Elder Brother Ten rubbed his belly and said, "Brother Ninth said that the food in Brother Fourth's house is good. I didn't believe it at the time, and almost missed it."
What a pity to miss out on delicious food!
In fact, the food in the palace is not much worse, after all, the imperial dining room has gathered the best cooks in the country.It's just that the imperial dining room pays attention to fine details, each dish looks beautiful and tastes good, but it lacks a little bit of smoke and fire.
It’s not as casual as the fourth elder brother’s eating here. The two of them can sit and eat facing each other. It’s okay to sweat profusely. You don’t have to worry about the embarrassment of the waiters around you staring at them. Ten elder brothers eat much more happily .
But after he finished eating, he rubbed his stomach and sighed again, and he heard the fourth elder brother say: "Tenth brother, sit down for a while, and then just take a walk with me to digest food."
The two sat for a while, looking at each other silently, the fourth elder brother thought for a while, and then talked about the homework that he had to come to the husband today: "Tenth brother, take a look when you have time, don't fall behind too much, and you will not be able to keep up later." of."
Elder Brother Ten was listless, afraid that he would be detained in the study all afternoon to do his homework.
Fortunately, the fourth elder brother was not so mad. After taking a walk, I asked the tenth elder brother to go back to take a nap, and then get up to do an hour of homework: "If I do well, I will take the tenth brother to the school grounds to ride a horse and relax."
You can't just eat and sleep and then sit still, you still have to combine movement and stillness.
The tenth elder brother was happy when he heard it, and said anxiously: "Fourth brother, I am not very good at riding and shooting."
The fourth elder brother said: "What are you afraid of, which brother didn't practice his riding and shooting slowly? The thirteenth brother was normal before, but after working hard for a while, he looks decent. I sent someone into the palace to call the thirteenth brother , in the afternoon, you can compete with the thirteenth brother."
The tenth elder brother knew that the fourteenth elder brother beat the thirteenth elder brother for a while, and the fourteenth elder brother was sent to Xidaying to suffer and was punished. After the thirteenth elder brother recovered from the injury on his face, he hurried to start Seek guidance from Master Wu.
It wasn't long before the thirteenth elder brother's riding and archery skills came up, and the tenth elder brother secretly thought that he, the elder brother, couldn't fall behind too much.
The fourth elder brother picked a docile maroon mare for the tenth elder brother in the schoolyard in the afternoon. It was not tall, and the tenth elder brother could get on the horse by himself and trot slowly.
He watched Elder Brother Ten run around, with smiles on his round face, obviously very happy to come out for a run.
The thirteenth elder brother hurried over, and the tenth elder brother hurriedly stopped the mare to greet him: "The thirteenth brother is here, do you want to run together?"
Hearing this, Brother Thirteen nodded and said, "Okay."
The two of them ran for a lap, and the thirteenth elder brother was even more exquisite in riding skills. The horse ran so fast that the tenth elder brother couldn't catch up no matter how much he patted the horse.
Obviously, his riding and shooting was not bad before, so why is he so far behind Brother Thirteen?
"Brother Thirteen, how did you practice? Your riding skills have improved by leaps and bounds?"
Elder Brother Thirteen smiled and said, "Just spend more time practicing, and then I will ask Master Wu to correct me."
Just by practicing hard by himself, it is very likely that he will not be able to discover his faults, and it will be different if someone is watching from the side.
The tenth elder brother nodded thoughtfully, thinking that he would ask Master Wu to correct his riding and shooting when he went back for a while, then he heard the thirteenth elder brother say: "Ten elder brother, your complexion is much better than before. Are you ok?"
Before hearing that the tenth elder brother didn't want to eat, the fourth elder brother was the one to do it, so the emperor waved him and sent him to Sibeile's mansion for a few days. The thirteenth elder brother was envious when he heard about it.
He really wants to live with the fourth elder brother, eat together, talk about homework, and practice riding and shooting together. It must be very interesting!
There is also the copybook of the fourth elder brother. The thirteenth elder brother has long wanted to copy it. The emperor praised the fourth elder brother for his good handwriting, and he had to work hard to do it.
The thirteenth elder brother knew that the tenth elder brother and the fourth elder brother were eating together, punching together and writing big characters in the study, and his face was full of envy: "That's great, if I tell Huang Ama to live with the fourth elder brother, I don't know Will Huang Ama nod her head?"
Elder Brother Shi didn't understand: "I was called up early in the morning to punch. Although I ate well, I wrote thirty big characters in the morning and had to do my homework in the afternoon to go out for a run. What's the point?"
He couldn't understand, how could Brother Thirteen wish he could do this instead of himself, isn't he tired?
The thirteenth elder brother has an expression of "you don't know how to be blessed while you are in the blessing": "The fourth elder brother's copybook is hard to find, so he just gave it to the tenth brother to copy it, how wonderful! The homework, the tenth brother's original copybook Homework is just so-so, if you don’t go to class and don’t do your homework, it’s not like you’re going to fall behind a lot, and you have to be overtaken by the younger brother.”
Really surpassed by the younger brother who is several years younger, can brother ten still hold on to his face?
"Isn't the fourth brother doing it for the benefit of the tenth brother? Otherwise, why would he go out of his way to ask the teacher for his homework, and even ask me for a question. If the tenth brother doesn't know it, he can answer it for you."
So the thirteenth elder brother can't be envious, the fourth elder brother is practicing, eating and playing with him!
The tenth elder brother thinks about it, and the fourth elder brother is hardworking enough.
Obviously it was the emperor's intention to throw people out to make the fourth elder brother distressed. Although he had a headache, he honestly took over the tenth elder brother and took good care of him. He didn't miss any of his food, homework, and health.
The fourth elder brother could actually take the person in, and then tell Si Fujin to take care of him a little more. It is enough to ask a few questions occasionally. Anyway, the tenth elder brother will go back to the palace after staying for a few days, so there is no need to bother so much.
In particular, it's not a thankless task for him to take care of Elder Brother Ten's food, but also take care of boxing and homework.
The tenth elder brother was also a little depressed at first, but when he saw the thirteenth elder brother looking at him enviously, he changed his mind and thought that he was indeed blessed and didn't know the blessing.
There is a person who thinks about all aspects of himself, nagging and even teaching a lesson, isn't that caring and valued?
That is to say, the fourth elder brother is willing to bother when the tenth elder brother is a close brother.
Otherwise, the fourth elder brother is so busy, why would he need to ask everything, and even take the tenth elder brother to fight, eat and go out for a horse race?
The fourth elder brother probably also understands that he is not good at words, and it is a bit embarrassing to have nothing to say with the tenth elder brother, so he specially sent someone into the palace to invite the thirteenth elder brother over.
Elder Brother Shi also knew good and bad, sniffed and said, "Then I have to practice calligraphy and do my homework well, so that my husband can praise me when I go back."
Elder Brother Thirteen felt that this request might be a little difficult, but he didn't hit Elder Brother Ten too hard: "If Elder Brother Ten can't do it, he can ask Fourth Brother. If Fourth Brother doesn't have time, he can also ask Third Brother."
The tenth brother thinks about the third brother and forget it. Although the knowledge of the third brother is good, but the words are too deep, and the meaning is not understood: "Then I'll ask the ninth brother and forget it."
Brother Thirteen's expression is indescribable. Although Brother Nine is good at arithmetic, I heard that he has recently started to learn Latin by himself. He writes decently, and there is no problem with simple oral communication.
The problem is that Brother Nine's interests are too broad, and he doesn't pay much attention to his homework. He can only say that he is barely passable. If he is asked to teach Brother Ten, isn't that a mistake?
Brother Thirteen held back for a while before saying, "Brother Ten should ask Brother Four or Brother Eight."
Elder Brother Ten sighed and said, "Big Brother is too busy recently, busy collecting bills, and Fourth Brother doesn't have that much time."
But he lives with the fourth elder brother, so it is much easier to see the fourth elder brother, so he should be able to ask.
The two of them ran for a while, horses and arrows, the thirteenth elder brother held the bow, and the feathered arrow hit the bull's-eye, he couldn't help showing a frustrated look.
The fourth elder brother watched from behind and patted the thirteenth elder brother on the shoulder and said: "You are too nervous here, relax a little, it will be fine next time."
The tenth elder brother was not as proficient in drawing the bow as the thirteenth elder brother, so the fourth elder brother went over to correct his posture, and the feathered arrow actually hit the target. Although there was still a distance from the target, he was very happy.
After all, he was absent-minded in archery before, and he missed the target eight out of ten times. Master Wu was also desperate for Elder Brother Ten.
The fourth elder brother said: "You can't lose your riding and shooting skills. You are too hungry and have no strength. Raise your arms a little bit. Yes, that's it."
Elder Brother Shi shot the arrow again, this time the feathered arrow was closer to the target, he smiled and said: "It seems that I still have talent, just practice more."
The fourth elder brother smiled and nodded: "Yes, the tenth brother did a good job this time, just practice a few more times with the thirteenth brother."
Elder Brother Ten probed and said, "Practice a few more times, will you be able to catch up with Thirteenth Brother?"
Elder Brother Thirteen smiled slightly beside him and said, "Brother Ten, riding and archery skills are not something you just talk about."
His expression of "Let the horse come over, who is afraid of whom" made Elder Brother Shi take it seriously.
Elder Brother Ten mumbled, "I am an elder brother anyway, how can I lose to my younger brother."
Every time he draws the bow, he adjusts it, and with the correction and guidance of the fourth elder brother, the feeling of the bow is getting better and better, and he will never miss the target again. The distance from the target is getting closer and closer.
But on Brother Thirteen's side, he has already started to hit the bull's-eye frequently, and he basically hasn't left too far.
The two little ones chased after each other, and finally the tenth elder brother's arms were sore, and he couldn't pull the bow and arrow in his hand, so the fourth elder brother stopped: "Okay, it's almost time, thirteenth brother, why don't you follow me?" Go back and have dinner together?"
The thirteenth elder brother nodded and smiled repeatedly: "Then the younger brother will bother the fourth brother."
When they went back to wait for the meal, the fourth elder brother let the sweaty two take a bath and changed their clothes, and then asked Su Peisheng to bring two relatively strong eunuchs to pinch the arms of the tenth and thirteenth elder brothers and explain He said: "After practicing archery for a long time in the afternoon, my arm will be sore and sore tomorrow. It's better to pinch it and relax it."
The tenth elder brother only felt that the fourth elder brother was too thoughtful. When he first squeezed his arms, his arms were so sore, but after that, he gradually relaxed a lot. He was a little drowsy, but his stomach was growling with hunger.
"Fourth brother, what's for dinner tonight?"
The fourth elder brother really didn't know about this. When he turned back to the kitchen, the food was brought up. It was a plate of spinach and fish ball soup.
Another eunuch came up with a big pot, which shocked Elder Brother Shi: "What is this?"
Chef Ma who followed him replied respectfully: "Brother Ten, this is ground pot chicken."
He reached out and lifted the lid, revealing the true contents of the pot.
"This chicken is a young free-range chicken. First, the chicken is chopped into pieces and then fried in a pan with several kinds of mushrooms. Add ginger and spring onions and fry until golden brown. Then add chicken soup, corn and winter bamboo shoots, and finally add Stew with washed cabbage."
Brother Ten squinted his eyes when he smelled it, but he was a little afraid to stretch out his chopsticks.
It was the fourth elder brother who first picked up the chopsticks and picked up the chopsticks for him, and then the thirteenth elder brother, and then greeted: "Don't worry about eating, come back from riding and shooting, it's okay to eat such a little."
Elder Brother Ten thinks about it too. Today, he rode a horse for several laps and practiced archery for a long time. The exhaustion is big enough. It doesn’t hurt to eat a little, so he started to eat with peace of mind.
The chicken is full of juice, even the winter bamboo shoots and cabbage. One bite of meat, one bite of vegetables and one bite of rice, Elder Ten enjoyed eating it.
Brother Thirteen ate much more slowly, but the chopsticks never stopped.
Elder Brother Ten thinks it’s boring to eat alone, but three people at a table can eat. If you have a chopstick and I have a chopstick, it will be much more lively.
He asked the chopsticks to slow down, maybe the meat he liked would be gone!
The thirteenth elder brother looked thin, and he was also a very edible age. The three of them ate a whole table of food in a daze, and didn't feel particularly full.
Seeing that the time was almost up and the gate of the palace was about to be locked, Brother Thirteen reluctantly returned to the palace.
Seeing the resentful look in his three steps and turning back, Elder Ten was happy, feeling that he had taken advantage of it, and Dian Dian sent Elder Thirteen to the door, as if he was the master here.
The thirteenth elder brother's eyes became more resentful. Fortunately, the fourth elder brother sent a copybook of his own in order to appease the younger brother. The thirteenth elder brother was happy now, and got into the carriage with the copybook and left.
Elder Brother Ten was tired all day and was full after eating. He fell asleep not long after returning home, almost falling asleep with his pillow on his head.
Waking up in a daze the next day, he saw the fourth elder brother coming in with air-conditioning all over his body.
Thinking of it being so early in the morning, the fourth elder brother would come to wake him up before going to the morning court. He must have woken up much earlier than him. The tenth elder brother got up in a jerk, and consciously went to wash up without the fourth elder brother's urging, and then punched.
The fourth elder brother looked very satisfied with the tenth elder brother, and the tenth elder brother woke up earlier in the next few days.
Every morning when the fourth elder brother passed by, the tenth elder brother had already got up, dressed and washed to wait for him.
When Geng Yi saw Elder Brother Ten again half a month later, he obviously felt that Elder Brother Ten's figure had become thinner, from a chubby fat man to a sturdy little fat man.
Elder Brother Ten is actually not very satisfied, feeling that he is still a bit fat.
It was still the fourth elder brother who said with a blank expression: "You eat too much snacks in the palace on weekdays, and you don't like to move, that's why you got fat. Think about how long it took you to get fat after eating, how could you lose weight completely in just half a month?" go down."
It's not impossible to lose weight immediately, isn't it the fastest to cut the meat directly?
After hitting him with a stick, the fourth elder brother gave him some sweetness again and said: "However, the tenth brother has worked hard for a while, and he has lost a lot of weight in half a month. If he continues with this routine, he will gradually lose weight."
Elder Brother Ten eats here every day except for meals, almost no desserts, and the amount of activity is also high enough. Originally, he was a half-sized child with a high metabolism, and he gradually lost weight.
As long as he doesn't worry, don't frantically try to starve to death like before, otherwise he will starve himself to death, and he may lose weight in a short time, and he will easily become edema and look fat, and even make himself sick from starvation.
Elder Brother Ten heard that something was wrong, he suddenly raised his head and said: "Brother Fourth, are you going to let me go back to the palace?"
The fourth elder brother looked at him suspiciously and said: "Yes, the tenth brother can eat and sleep now and has lost a little weight, so he should go back to the palace. Otherwise, he will not go to class all the time, and he will be far behind in his homework. After returning, the tenth brother You can't be lazy, or you'll have to gain weight again."
The tenth elder brother's expression was exactly the same as that of the thirteenth elder brother before. Living here with the fourth elder brother was so comfortable that he didn't even want to go back to the palace in the blink of an eye for half a month.
Think about living alone after returning to the palace, no one will eat with him, no one will practice boxing with him in the morning, and he will not be able to practice riding and shooting together in the afternoon.
The fourth elder brother said: "The thirteenth brother is also in the palace, the tenth brother can practice riding and shooting with him."
The tenth elder brother thinks about it too, he has improved a lot recently, so he has to compare with the thirteenth elder brother again to see who is the elder brother!
So he wasn't depressed any more, and happily got on the carriage and went back to the palace.
The fourth elder brother was really relieved to stand where he was. He was really afraid that the tenth elder brother would not want to go back to the palace, and then cried and insisted on staying, so he was in a dilemma. Should he agree or not?
The emperor had made an exception for Elder Brother Ten to leave the palace for such a long time. Now that he has recovered, it would be inappropriate for him to continue living outside the palace.
Elder Brother Ten finally returned to the palace, and everyone in Sibeile's house finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Especially the pressure in the kitchen was the greatest. Chef Ma felt that the hair on his head was getting thinner, and every time he was afraid that the food he cooked would not suit Elder Brother Ten's appetite.
Fortunately, Geng Yi opened his mind to him, and the fourth elder brother took the tenth elder brother to boxing and riding and shooting every day, so the exhaustion made him hungry quickly, and he no longer yelled and refused to eat.
Brother Nine learned that Brother Ten was back, so he hurried over, seeing that Brother Ten had indeed lost weight, he was surprised and said, "Brother Ten has really lost weight."
He thought that the fourth elder brother would not really force the tenth elder brother to work hard, otherwise how could the tenth elder brother lose weight?
Elder Brother Ten rubbed his stomach and laughed, "Brother Ninth, you are right, the food at Brother Fourth's house is really good."
He hurried to see the emperor, who was also surprised when the emperor saw Elder Brother Shi who had lost a lot of weight, and said with a smile: "Xiao Shi looks much stronger, it seems that you are doing well with Lao Si."
Knowing that the fourth elder brother had a way to restrain the skinny monkey, the tenth elder brother, the emperor stroked his beard and smiled.
Moreover, the emperor was even happier when he learned that Elder Brother Shi had not failed in his homework and that his riding and shooting skills had improved.
The fourth elder brother had done a lot of hard work, and the emperor rewarded him with a lot of things, ranging from jade, calligraphy and painting to medicinal materials and food materials, and the whole cart was sent by the eunuch Gao.
Eunuch Gao came with a cart full of rewards, the fourth elder brother thanked him and accepted it, and Su Peisheng gave Eunuch Gao a small purse.Although the inside is light, you can tell it's a bank note as soon as you touch it, and the smile on Eunuch Gao's lips deepens.
Eunuch Gao said: "Si elder brother, this basket of red fish is still fresh, and it was sent all the way from the sea in a hurry, so it must be disposed of as soon as possible."
Otherwise, the fish will not be fresh and taste bad.
A large cart of live fish was sent all the way to the capital, and only a small half of it was still alive.
Two baskets of live fish were sent to the empress dowager, the emperor kept two baskets, and gave one basket to the fourth elder brother, and one basket to the prince. The harem concubines and other elder brothers are not enough, and it is impossible to have one basket each , can only be divided according to the article.
Su Peisheng hurriedly sent the basket of red fish to the kitchen, and asked Chef Ma to deal with it quickly.
When Cook Ma saw it, he decisively decided to make a whole fish feast, and the rest of the fish would be washed and marinated, and it was okay to make bad fish.
Some fish can still be processed alive. After deboning, the meat is minced and made into fish balls, which can be frozen for a while in winter.In the future, eating a pot or making soup with fish balls is so fresh that people want to swallow their tongues.
The kitchen was busy for several hours before all the fish were processed. Cooks Ma and Cook started cooking with their apprentices.
Hearing that there was going to be a whole fish feast, Geng Yi had come to the main courtyard early to wait.
She came earlier than Song Gege, Song Gege came in and saw Geng Yi's face could not help being surprised: "Sister Geng came so early."
Geng Yi smiled, there was something delicious, she couldn't stay in the house, so she hurried over.
Li Gege and Niu Gulu Gege soon followed, and Li Gege was holding a little girl carved in pink and jade, timidly sticking behind her and looking at Song Gege and Geng Yi.
Geng Yi suddenly realized, this is the fourth elder brother's daughter Huai Ke, right?
It's just that it's been almost a month since she came here, and it's the first time she's seen Li Gege's daughter.
The nanny behind Li Gege hugged Huai Ke and sat on the chair, and Li Gege sat down next to him. Seeing Geng Yi's eyes, he said: "It was cold before, and Huai Ke coughed a little when he went out and was blown by the cold wind. She just stayed in the house and didn't come out. The weather is not so cold now, the wind is not strong, and seeing that her cough has recovered, I brought her here."
Huai Ke was clothed thickly, and she was chubby, and it was a bit difficult to even reach out. I don't know how many clothes Li Gege put on her.
After entering, he took off his cloak, and at first glance, there were still several pieces inside.
As soon as Geng Yi heard it, he understood that Huai Ke might be young, and his respiratory tract might not be very good. It is easy to cough when he catches a cold when he is blown by the cold wind.
But she saw that the red light didn't appear, and Huai Ke's complexion was okay, so it's probably not a big problem, and they should all be healed.
After all, the winter in Beijing this year is indeed a bit colder than in previous years, and it is only natural for children to be sensitive and uncomfortable.
It was Li Gege who was quite nervous, and Huai Ke was not allowed to come out for the New Year's Eve dinner.
It’s just that Huai Ke’s cough may not be healed before, and Hong Hui is also there, so it won’t be good if he gets sick.
After a few people sat down for a while, Nanny Liao came to invite them to a seat, Si elder brother and Si Fujin also came over.
Hong Hui was not carried out by the nanny, it was too early for him to eat fish at his age, and he was afraid of making a fuss to eat it when he smelled the smell, so he simply watched and fed some meat paste to the nanny.
The fourth elder brother sat down with Si Fujin, and Si Fujin sat on the left hand side of the fourth elder brother. The fourth elder brother motioned for Geng Yi to sit on his right hand side, and Li Gege took his daughter to sit on the other side of Geng Yi.
On the other side of the Four Fujins was Song Gege, and then Niu Gulu Gege took his seat.
The kitchen led the apprentices and eunuchs to serve the dishes one by one, and the first dish was steamed fish.
Afraid that there are too many fish bones, it is not easy to eat, and steamed fish cannot remove the fish bones before steaming, it is easy to steam, so Chef Ma had an idea, and thought of frying the red fish in the oil pan for a while first, and the fish bones Fried and crispy and then steamed, the fish tastes crunchy on the outside and the bones inside are also crunchy, and it doesn't hurt at all to eat.
Even the little Huai Ke can eat this fish without fear of getting stuck in it.
Geng Yi ate the fish really well, and Chef Ma's skills were really good.If the fried fish is overcooked, the fish meat will be old. If it is not fried enough, the fish bones will not be crisp enough, and it will still be a bit sticky.
Now the fish bones are not only crisp, but the fish meat is still fresh and tender, which is really amazing.
She ate half of the red fish in one go, and served the second course.
It is to cut the red fish into slices, put them into the chicken soup with ham and dried bamboo shoots and cook for a while.
No wonder the dish is served now instead of directly following the previous one, because the fish fillet tastes the most delicious when it is just cooked, and it will get stale after a long time. It is just right to serve it at this time.
The base soup has ham and dried bamboo shoots, the chicken soup is double delicious, the fish fillets are very tender, and the fish bones are cleanly shaved, and Huai Ke is also hard-pressed to eat while being served by the mother behind him.
Probably because of Huai Ke's presence, the dishes were not spicy, so they were much lighter.
Then there are fish ball soup, sweet and sour fish fillets, fried fish cakes and fried fish soup. A table of dishes includes frying, frying, steaming and boiling, which can be described as extremely attentive.
The last dish served was a bowl of noodles. Geng Yi was also surprised that the noodles looked ordinary and couldn't compare with the previous dishes.
But she ate a chopstick and was immediately surprised: "Is this fish noodles?"
Chef Ma was waiting in the corner, showing up at any time for introductions. When he heard Geng Yi's question, he quickly replied: "Yes, Master Geng is very powerful. He ate it in one go. This is exactly the fish noodle."
Geng Yi couldn't help feeling that Chef Ma really knows everything.
Fish noodle is actually minced fish meat mixed into the dough, and then kneaded into noodles.
There is fish in the noodles, and it has the umami taste of fish and the strength of noodles. It looks simple, but it is not easy to make.
Geng Yi had heard of this dish before, but it was a pity that he didn't have time to eat it, but he didn't expect to eat it now.
After eating the fish noodles, tonight's whole fish feast is over. The whole basket of fish is almost finished, and the rest are made into fish balls for a few days to eat.
Li Gege pushed his daughter who was dozing off after eating too much, and Huai Ke woke up with a jolt, and immediately got up and ran to the fourth elder brother to hug his arm, and said in a milky voice: "Ama, it's been a long time Come see me."
The fourth elder brother touched Huai Ke's head, saw that her complexion was ruddy, she was really well, and said with a smile: "I will see you some other day, it's getting late, you should go back to sleep."
Huai Ke timidly looked back at Li Gege, Li Gege was a little frustrated, but let the mother hold her daughter, got up and said goodbye.
She was about to leave, Niu Gulu Gege beside her also got up and went back, and Song Gege was no exception.
Song Gege saw that the fourth elder brother seemed to have something to say to Si Fujin, so he stayed soon.
Just as Geng Yi was about to get up, Si elder brother sat down again with his shoulders pressed down.
After the others left, the fourth elder brother said: "Before I was busy, and then the tenth brother came to live again, so I couldn't get away for a while. The business of Yurong Ointment went quite smoothly, and with the help of the ninth brother, this The business has stabilized."
"The prescription of Yurong Gao was given by you, and Geng Yin was also recommended by you. You will get [-]% of the monthly profit of this business. Fujin helps select and arrange the manpower, which is hard work and also earns [-]% of the profit."
Geng Yi was taken aback for a moment, his face not showing, but his heart was full of joy.
Although she didn't go out to see how the shop's business was going, she heard from the errand runner Xiao Li that the supply of Yurong Ointment was in short supply outside, and there were a lot of people queuing up to buy it.These [-]% may not seem like a lot, but the huge shipments are quite a lot.
Not to mention that the price of a jar of Yurong Paste is not low, but the cost is actually not high. Even if the beautiful glass jars are included, Geng Yi has made a lot of money!
Thinking about her sitting in the mansion, a large amount of money will fly into her arms every month, it's so refreshing!
Fujin declined and said: "Master, I just did this with a little effort, and I am really ashamed of this achievement."
The fourth elder brother smiled and said, "Just keep it."
Seeing his insistence, Fujin didn't refuse any more.
Looking back, the fourth elder brother said to Geng Yi in private: "I originally wanted to give you [-]% of the profit, but it was too eye-catching. In addition, I will take half of the profit from me to reward Geng Yin and a few nuns who teach the female workers."
After all, there are rewards and punishments in order to mobilize the enthusiasm of the subordinates.
In fact, Geng Yi was already very satisfied with getting [-]% and getting [-]% was a bit greedy. After all, she just came up with a recipe and recommended Geng Yin to help. The rest were done by Si elder brother and Si Fujin.
"Master, two achievements are very good."
Seeing her smiling, the fourth elder brother pinched Geng Yi's cheek and said, "Okay, at the end of every month, let Geng Yin send someone to deliver the bank notes."
Geng Yi is very happy, it seems that her small coffers are getting fuller and fuller!
The fourth elder brother saw her happy face, so he naturally laughed too.
They are happy here, but the eighth brother is much more worried.
The eighth elder brother followed Prince Yu to check the accounts. There were too many debts. It was impossible for Prince Yu to ask for it in person, so he had to go.
But the eighth elder brother didn't want to offend people very much, so he could only come to the door politely, and then he was greeted politely and then sent out politely. Both sides were smiling, but there was almost no progress in the arrears.
Either they said that they couldn't get it out, or they said they would delay it for a few days, or they only gave a sporadic part, just like sending beggars.
It's just that the eighth elder brother is not good at tearing faces with them. After all, everyone is from a distinguished family and cannot be offended to death.
That’s not to mention, the eighth elder brother finally found time to run to the West Daying, and he was terribly tired after climbing the mountain. The fourteenth elder brother’s matchup was also over. second.
Elder Fourteen was a little regretful, thinking that next time he must take the first place, so he didn't want to go back to the palace.
The eighth elder brother tried to persuade him again and again, but he didn't know what to do with the fourteenth elder brother.
He really couldn't persuade him, and he was too tired, so he could only say: "I can't say it's the fourteenth brother, but I really can't, let the fourth brother come over later."
Elder Fourteen shrank his neck and said, "Fourth Brother is so busy, he probably doesn't have time to pick me up?"
The eighth elder brother thought about the recent past, so he nodded and said, "fourth brother is indeed very busy these days. He has to do business with the ninth brother, and also takes care of the tenth brother who lives in his house for half a month..."
The fourteenth brother was not happy when he heard it: "What, I haven't lived in the fourth brother's house yet, and the tenth brother still lives for half a month? Why is the ninth brother still doing business with the fourth brother?"
I heard that the tenth elder brother lives in the fourth elder brother's house, and the fourth elder brother eats and plays with him and teaches riding and shooting skills, so the fourteenth elder brother can't sit still.Or should he go back and tell the emperor that he will also go to stay with the fourth elder brother for a few days?
Although his riding and archery skills are much better than that of the tenth elder brother, he doesn't need the fourth elder brother's guidance, but he has been in Xi Daying for so long, and his homework has also fallen behind. Shouldn't the fourth elder brother help guide him?
