The first time he saw the fish, Xiji was very pleasantly surprised. He has been here for a long time, but basically he has never eaten fish.

One is because there are no rivers near Xijia, and there are no fish farms for farming. The means of transportation in this era are simple, and many of them are not fresh after traveling long distances. What can be eaten are some half-dead fish, and the taste is naturally not very good. Sample.

The second is that the way fish is handled in this world is very simple and rude. The fish always has a fishy smell. Few people can overcome the fishy smell, and the taste is even more unpalatable.

The stuff didn't taste good, plus it had a lot of bone spurs.Therefore, in many places, fish is an obscene thing that is despised by the upper class. like to eat.

Seeing the fish being delivered at this time, it seemed to be fresh. Xiji didn't care what the person in charge thought, and was a little happy that the fish was cleaned up. At least the internal organs and fish scales were cleaned. He does it himself.

Looking at the fish of a suitable size and thinking of the sweet and sour fish that he ate in his previous life, Xiji's mouth began to salivate. He really missed that feeling so much.

Just when he was about to do it with great interest, he suddenly realized that he was not jealous yet!What kind of sweet and sour fish was there, and I was a little disappointed immediately.But he really misses the sweet and sour taste of sweet and sour fish. No matter how you eat it, it is delicious. The way to eat it is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and then wrapped in a layer of sweet and sour sauce.

When Mo Shu came back after washing the dishes, he saw his young master squatting there looking very distressed. He leaned over and saw the fish in front of him. He immediately puffed up his face and said angrily: " Young master, don't be angry, I'll throw this thing out for you right now."

As he said that, he wanted to make a move, but Xiji, who came back to his senses, quickly stopped him, and said quickly: "What's wrong?"

Mo Shu looked at his young master, his face turned red with anger, how could he feed this kind of food to his young master, he had seen it before, this kind of food was basically fed to cats and dogs by the masters of the mansion .

His young master is a rich man, since he came here, not only has he lost his servants, he even has to cook his own meals, and even feeds this kind of animal food to the young master, this palace is really deceiving.

Seeing that Mo Shu's eyes were red with anger, Xiji knew that he must have misunderstood, so he quickly comforted him and said, "Don't worry, I'm not angry, but just thinking about how to eat this thing."

"Eat, young master, how can you eat this kind of thing?" Mo Shu suddenly felt that the young master was even more pitiful.

Seeing Mo Shu's posture of crying or not, Xiji immediately lost his temper. He could only pat him on the back and explained slowly: "In the past, everyone didn't like to eat this because they couldn't handle it. But I am different from your young master, I can cook it, and I can cook it deliciously."

Hearing his words, Mo Shu gradually calmed down. Since his young master said so, he must be able to make it, and it will be delicious.

Just looking at the worried young master, he asked in bewilderment: "Then young master, what are you still worried about?"

"It just occurred to me that we don't have vinegar. I want to make sweet and sour fish. Although it is delicious in other ways, it is not as delicious as sweet and sour fish." Xiji likes this dish very much. Although it is simple, it is really good. eat!

Hearing this, he also thought of the sweet and sour taste, and immediately started worrying along with his young master. He really wanted to eat it.

So, the master and the servant stared at a dead fish and began to worry.

"It would be great if black cones could make vinegar." Mo Shu stared at the fish and muttered to himself.

"Black cones, what black cones?" Xiji answered politely.

"It's the kind of fruit that has a lot of juice in it, but it's so sour. Someone sent a lot of it last time. I remember that the young master didn't like it, so he piled it in the corner." Mo Shu held his face and looked at the piece of fruit. Yu, thinking about when he will be able to eat the vinegar from the young master's mouth, he really wants to eat it.

Hearing him say this, relying on a chef's intuition, he always felt that he would miss something if he didn't ask, so he turned to look at his little book boy, and asked, "Where is that fruit now?"

"It's right there." Mo Shu pointed to the pile of dark-looking things in the corner without distraction. If he hadn't mentioned it today, Xiji would have thought it was some kind of stone unique to this era, but it looks quite worthy its name.

Picking up one, the weight is not heavy. Thinking of what Mo Shu said just now, I still came to the cutting board, picked up the knife, and cut it hard.Smelling a slightly fruity sour smell, and then reaching out to dip a little bit to taste, Xiji's eyes lit up immediately, as if he had found a substitute.

"Mo Shu, we can make sweet and sour fish without vinegar." Xiji walked out happily and announced to Mo Shu who was still worrying about fish.

Hearing his words, Mo Shu's eyes lit up, and he said eagerly, "Then can we eat sweet and sour fish tonight?"

Xiji looked at him, nodded, and said happily: "Of course it is possible. You go to the small vegetable garden and get some green onions and garlic. I'll go and deal with the fish. We can eat fish in the evening."

Mo Shu was very happy, and ran off in a hurry to prepare the dishes his young master wanted.

Seeing Mo Shu's cheerful pace, Xiji smiled slightly, then picked up the fish, picked out a few dishes and took them together, turned around and walked towards the kitchen, "Xiang, let's see how I treat you this time."

……

"Brother Fang, can we still eat that kind of food at night?" Looking at the sky that was going to be dark soon, the little guard asked the senior in front of him with itching, his eyes were full of the bowl of vermicelli that he ate at noon. yearning.

Seeing the little guard's greedy face, Fang guard looked at him with a half-smile, and teased, "Aren't you afraid of being punished now?"

Speaking of this, the little guard was still a little embarrassed, touched his head, and said a little shyly: "Didn't we do nothing?"

Looking at the bastard in front of him, he didn't even care about the punishment of the chief guard who always talked about it for a bite. At first, he wanted to make fun of him, but when he looked at him eagerly, those ironic words I can't tell.

He glanced at the sky, but he could only sigh and said, "There is nothing in the evening, the young master usually only delivers the lunch at noon, and it's when he's cooking new dishes."

After all, sometimes patrolling guards pass by here, and if they are seen, it will be bad for them.

Hearing what he said, the little guard's face immediately collapsed, thinking that he was still reluctant to part with the noon meal.

Seeing him like this, Guard Fang couldn't stand it anymore, looked at him with his eyes, and said bluntly: "Don't be discouraged, boy, that young man is a diligent person, and he will do some new tricks from time to time. You can also get some light from time to time.”

Hearing what he said, the little guard suddenly became happy again, and then said with a somewhat tangled face: "Then we ate his food, what if he tells us to do bad things?"

Although he really wanted to eat those things, he couldn't betray the king!Although the king is fierce and terrifying, he is their king.

"Just put your heart back in your stomach, this young master is not that kind of person." Fang guard said, looking at the gate of this courtyard, he also thought that the young master struck up a conversation with them in order to know about the king. I like it, and I have been secretly on guard.

It wasn't until later that I found out that this young man would only talk to them except for those precious spices, and the rest of the time he stayed in this small courtyard, living a peaceful life with his little servants, without mentioning anything. One word from the king.

Even looking at them sometimes, he has the illusion that this is a peaceful and prosperous age.Facing such a peaceful master and servant, even a rough man like him couldn't help feeling a little more pity.

Hearing that Wang is back, thinking about Wang's character, I don't know what will happen to this young master in the future.In his heart, he hoped that this young master would have a good home, but reason told him that it was difficult.

Because their king, even if he worships him again, he has to say that he is really crazy!The real kind.

Sighing, as a small soldier, he can't really help, he can only try his best to help cover up the unusualness of this young man, hoping that his future journey will be smoother.

Against the background of dusk, looking at the smoke rising from the yard, it is expected that the master and servant have started to cook again, and they don't know what they are eating.It's just that no matter what it is, it should be delicious.

Looking at this quiet small courtyard with complicated eyes, I only hope that such a beauty can be well.

……

When Mo Shu hurriedly ran to pick vegetables, Xiji had already selected the fruit, estimated the portion, cut it quickly, and took out all the pulp inside and put it into the prepared large bowl. Then filter it with gauze to leave a slightly yellowed juice.

Then put the processed fish into the plate, marinate the fish inside and out with the juice, put it there, and wait until it is almost ready to be put into the pot with other seasonings.

When Mo Shu brought all the ingredients that Xiji wanted, the two went to the well to wash them together. Xiji skillfully sliced ​​and sliced ​​the ingredients, put them aside and waited for a while cook.

Seeing that the time is almost up, put the oil in the pot to preheat, and you have to estimate the amount when putting it in.In this world, the price of oil is not cheap, so there is not much distributed to Xiji and the others. In addition, they are restricted in freedom and cannot go out at will.Therefore, oil needs to be used sparingly, so as not to accidentally use too much, and the days to come can only be lived with clear soup and little water.

Seeing that the oil was almost ready, Xiji slowly slid the fish down the side of the pot, heard the sound of zigzagging in his ears, smelled the aroma constantly rising from the pot, and saw that the fish began to turn brown, Slowly took the fish out.

Then, using the oil left in the pot, pour in the prepared ingredients and stir-fry again. Seeing that the frying is almost done, take out all the hot dishes and pour them on the fish that has just come out.Immediately, a smell that stimulated the secretion of saliva came out, making Mo Shu, who was helping beside him, swallow his saliva uncontrollably.

"Okay, did you get the two bowls of vermicelli that I told you just now?" Xiji was about to go out with the plate of fish, when he turned around and saw the ink book leaning against the door, swallowing his saliva, and was immediately caught by his face. That gluttonous look was amused.

Mo Shu sucked his saliva, nodded his head and said, "I went to get it when the young master ordered it just now, and it's already on the table now."

"Yeah." Xiji nodded, took the plate, and walked towards the place where the two of them ate together with the ink book. They saw two bowls of vermicelli that were about the same size as noon. In fact, eating this kind of thing for three meals a day is very It's easy to get bored.

It's just that the weather is perfect for something this cool, and it's not easy to store in this age without refrigerators, so it's okay to indulge.

However, due to the noon and the meal near the evening, he is actually not very hungry at this time, so he specifically told Mo Shu to get less for himself just now.As for ink books, his own appetite is still as good as ever.

"Master, this sweet and sour fish is delicious!" Mo Shu looked at his master tearfully while eating.

My young master is amazing, he can turn such unpalatable food into magic, and make it so delicious, it is so touching.

"If you like it, eat more, I can't eat that much." In addition to the meal that was eaten in the afternoon, Xiji actually didn't have much empty space in his stomach. After a few bites, he found that it tasted good, thinking about the fruit The taste is similar to what I expected, as long as a little processing is a good substitute for vinegar.

At this moment, seeing Mo Shu's appearance that he couldn't lift it, he felt very relieved and even a little happy.Mo Shu's appetite has always been very good. He used to eat a lot when he had nothing to eat, but now with Xiji's special feeding, he eats even more.

Seeing Mo Shu's gradually fattening little face, Xiji was still very happy.For children, it is better to have meat to look better.

In the end, the two of them ate the fish cleanly, and with a bowl of vermicelli each, they could hardly stand upright.

"Master, I'm so full." In the end, all the food that my young master didn't eat went into his stomach. No matter how much he ate on weekdays, he still felt a little full after eating so many greasy things. .

Xiji's state at this time was similar to that of Mo Shu. He originally thought that there was not much fish and he should not eat it. Unfortunately, he still overestimated the amount of food he ate today.Even though he didn't eat as much ink books, he still managed.

The whole person slumped on the armchair, rubbing his stomach, looking quite uncomfortable, and said to Mo Shu who was packing up the dishes: "Mo Shu, take a rest before washing, anyway, there is only The two of us, it doesn't matter if we wash up later."

Mo Shu didn't respond to these words, he just smiled at the young master who started to get lazy every time he finished eating, and then quickly packed up the dishes and went to wash.

Looking at Mo Shu's busy figure, Xiji struggled for a while, but still didn't get up. His habit of being lazy when he was full should not be changed.Sitting there, Xiji looked at the gradually rising moon outside the window, thinking about what to do tomorrow to reward his diligent little book boy?

After thinking for a long time, I decided to make bean paste buns. Although the process is a bit troublesome, they have plenty of time here and can afford it.

Well, let's do this, take a rest, soak the material before going to bed later, and save some trouble tomorrow.

……

In a gorgeous yard far from this small one.

"King." The young man came from a distance in a black brocade suit, and the dark silver pattern embroidered on it faintly revealed as he walked.The guards I met along the way all bowed down respectfully and saluted, and they didn't get up one by one until the king passed by, standing upright in their positions.

With a creak, the door in front of him was gently closed, and the most noble master in the mansion entered his bedroom.After closing the door, the guards on the left and right stood silently on guard with the flickering candlelight.

Ye Lin returned to his dormitory, looked around at the dormitory with only the huge wooden bed, glanced nonchalantly at the door leading to the clothes room, and slightly raised the corners of his lips.
