MTL - Chang’an Small Restaurant-Chapter 59 Lin Shaoyin rolls over
After eating the morning meal, Lin Yan went up to the court. While it was still cool, Mrs. Jiang Tai asked her servants and maids to help her go to the garden to relax. It rained only last night, and the garden was green, fat, red and thin, very fresh.
Pointing to the withered peony under the bar, Mrs. Jiang Tai smiled and said: "Unfortunately, no one in the family wears it, and no one rewards it, it would be better if it was given to Mrs. Shen, At least I can make flower dew and eat it."
A Su and other personal servants and maids laughed, "You are doing such a small family language again."
Mrs. Tai suddenly stopped, "Go to the warehouse to find the guy I used to use for steaming dew, remember there is a fruit juice squeezer, as well as a small silver choshi, a jade bowl Yuzhan and the like are a set of things that girls play with. They are packed in gift boxes and given to Lady Shen." Mrs. Tai sighed, "Otherwise, it would be a waste to leave it in vain."
Looking at Madam Tai's face, A Su bowed and answered yes, and led another servant girl away.
On the stone couch in the pavilion, a maid had already laid a brocade mat, and Mrs. Jiang Tai helped the maid's hand up the steps and sat on the couch. The servants took out small pots and cups from the baskets they carried, poured a bowl of buttermilk and served them.
The maid was young and lively, looking at Madam Tai with some emotion, she smiled and said, "Are you worried that you won't have a good flower dew to eat in the future? You don't have to, Alang married Madam, naturally you will honor these things."
Mrs. Jiang Tai sighed softly, "It doesn't matter if they are, as long as they are a good husband and wife, I will be satisfied."
The maids laughed: "A Lang is good, and the wife he married is naturally good. The two are good and one is good.
Mrs. Jiang Tai drank the buttermilk and looked at the lush greenery of the garden. Sometimes, this one or that one is good, but it is not as good as a bunch, and it becomes a grudge...
Interesting Mrs. Tai's handwriting, the previous screen...
I didn't receive a double thank you, Shen Shaoguang said with a smile: "Your house has already given Xie Yi, it's not good to accept such a generous gift, and please ask the lady to go to Mrs. Fu Tai."
The maid A Su smiled and said: "That's from the mansion, and this is specially given to the little lady by Mrs. Tai. Mrs. Tai said that I haven't had such a strong and sweet flower dew for many years. Said, in the fall, I will trouble the little lady to make sweet-scented osmanthus dew, and I beg the little lady not to refuse."
Oh, it turns out that except for the male host, everyone in your house can speak well, and the male host... Shen Shaoguang can't say that the gift was also given by "Mrs. Tai", not ordinary I had no choice but to laugh and accept this historical, exquisite or decadent gift. ①
The servants of the Lin family were sent away, and Shen Shaoguang came back to look at the gifts sent by Mrs. Tai. There were copper, porcelain, silver, and jade, each of which was very small and exquisite, all of which could be put away in future generations. The things displayed in the Duobao Pavilion can glimpse the leisurely and elegant days in the boudoir of a noble noble girl. The things in the palace are also exquisite, but they tend to be rich, which is different from the elegance of this aristocratic family.
And thinking of the equally elegant screen, this time, even Shen Shaoguang couldn't convince himself, Lin Shaoyin, were you really struck by lightning?
Thinking of Lin Shaoyin's gentle breeze blowing, Chunshan Xinbi's smile, slightly curved eyebrows, beautiful lips, and a good bosom, Shen Shaoguang smiled and sighed faintly , good is very good, but unfortunately no blessing to consume...
Yu San came out and saw the little lady laughing and sighing at the bunch of guys sent by the Lin family, like she was a little melancholy, pouted, oh, little lady, even if she is sturdy like her own A little lady like the little lady can't escape love. Then Lin Shaoyin is just better-looking, better-born, and higher in official position...
Yu San shook his head and went to the back garden to pluck the onions.
Shen Shaoguang asked Ah Yuan to help put these things in the warehouse, and then we will return them to Lin Shaoyin or what to do. I would never dare to use them in the kitchen. Such works of art are bumped, and future generations of cultural relics have to cross over to beat people, or rough and suitable for daily operations.
Shen Shaoguang stopped worrying about the problems of the Lin family, put on an apron, entered the kitchen, and looked at the fish, shrimp and clams in the bucket.
Different from the big fish delivered on weekdays, today the fish seller sent a lot of clams, small fish and shrimp, and there were a few loach in it, saying that they were caught in a different place.
Loach and clams need to spit mud, so I will cook some shrimps at noon. Fresh and small shrimp, the best thing to eat is fried in oil.
After the shrimp turns red, add salt, sugar, and clear sauce to taste. Just before taking out of the pot, throw in a handful of chives, and stir-fry twice before serving.
Well, fresh! Mmmm, incense!
The guests who came early smelled the taste and even got a plate, and the rest went into the mouths of the boss Shen Ji, the chef and the hall. Among them, Shen Shaoguang ate the most.
A Yuan asked her, "It's rare to see a little lady like this."
With the minced meat rolls, fried tofu box, braised purple eggplant, garlic courgette with sesame sauce, and a bowl of rice porridge with thick rice rotten soup, Shen Shaoguang was determined to eat.
Why do people eat home-cooked dishes every time? Shen Shaoguang felt that this was the hardest puzzle in the chef world.
Having eaten and drank enough, nestled behind the counter, counting the bills, counting the small money, Lin Shaoyin's moon-like face could no longer trouble Shen Shaoguang. It can be seen that there is really nothing that a meal can't solve...
I chewed a meal at noon, and had food for the guests at night. These fish and shrimp were exhausted. When Lin Yan came to the store, there were only a few loach left.
When he came back in the evening, the housekeeper reported it to him, and Mrs. Tai gave Shen Ji's little lady some things from the girls' boudoir as a thank you.
Because Mrs. Jiang Tai's spirit is not good, the housekeeper has always drawn up the order for the ceremony, reported it to the owner, and the accountant will handle the specific operation, and the gift sent to Shen Ji was Lin Yan's private goods , did not pass through the housekeeper or the cashier, and directly showed the owner's waist badge and carried it out; what Mrs. Tai sent was also a private item.
Lin Yan paused and pursed his lips, "Got it."
During dinner in the evening, Lin Yan asked her grandmother, "I heard that you gave Shen Ji's little lady some gifts today?"
Mrs. Jiang Tai smiled and said: "The daughter of the high-ranking lady Shen, make these sauerkraut and clear dew for us. It can't be regarded as an ordinary merchant. It is not suitable to send money, so I will send some girls. Household stuff. These rituals are supposed to be done by family members. If you didn't get a bride, I'll share your worries for you."
Share the worries... Lin Yan smiled and said, "Yes, Granny Lao is worried."
Because of this "worry" shared by her grandmother, Lin Yan has rarely hesitated since the first two years as an official, and felt a little dry.
Drank two cups of tea, calmed down and approved the batch of documents, Lin Yan walked out of the house.
Shen Ji opened the door and saw a slender figure in the dim light from a distance.
Lin Yan's hesitant heart suddenly calmed down and smiled.
Shen Shaoguang raised his eyes and greeted with a smile: "Lin Langjun."
Lin Yan smiled and nodded: "Miss Shen."
Lin Yan sat down by the window where he used to sit, Shen Shaoguang served the sour plum drink and asked with a smile, "What do you want to order today?"
"The little lady looks at the arrangement."
Lin Yan glanced at Shen Shaoguang, smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, let's go to another day."
"..." Shen Shaoguang smiled, "Langjun wait."
Yu San did not cook loach, Shen Shaoguang did it himself.
Take another pot, put oil, sauté minced **** and garlic until fragrant, put in the basil that goes well with loach, then add the simmered loach, add salt, shallots, a spoonful of clear sauce to taste, stir fry twice, and you’re done out of the pot. ②
Here the dry loach is out of the pot, and there are a few quick dishes such as courgette eggs, chicken breast, eggplant, cumin and mutton prepared by Yu San, even a bowl of clear soup. Put it on the tray and let Ah Yuan take it out.
Shen Shaoguang washed his hands, walked out, and sat down on his knees opposite Lin Yan.
Lin Yan smiled: "It's hard work."
"Does Lin Langjun know what this is?"
"Fish?" Lin Yan raised his eyebrows.
Shen Shaoguang sneered, "This is a loach in the mud pond, it is dark, with a beard, a stubborn temper, and an earthy smell, but it can't be made into the golden loach that Langjun eats every day. mullet."
Lin Yan smiled and took one, "click" in his mouth, and chewed slowly.
Shen Shaoguang: "…"
"Crispy and fragrant." Lin Yan smiled at Shen Shaoguang.
Shen Shaoguang said that Bi Xing Gao, who was not allowed to have a noble banquet on a small loach in the countryside, was bitten by his "click" and the sentence "sweet and fragrant" stuffed in his throat.
Shen Shaoguang is a generous person, he smiles, and he is bored.
Under the gaze of Shen Shaoguang, this Lin Shaoyin slowly ate four or five pieces of loach, half a plate of courgette eggs, some eggplant and mutton, and a small bowl of hoto After he finished drinking, he wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and A Yuan drank another half of the tea he was serving, but didn't say anything.
Shen Shaoguang finally realized the difference between the senior officials in red robes of Jingzhao Mansion and the subordinates in Tsing Yi. said.
Lin Yan finished drinking tea and looked at Shen Shaoguang: "There is something I want to ask the little lady—"
Finally, Shen Shaoguang smiled: "Lang Jun, please speak."
"Fenzhou Shen Biejia is a direct descendant of the Luoxia Shen family. After the term expires, he will return to the capital to report his duties. Little lady - do you want to meet?"
Shen Shaoguang was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment, "Forget it, it's gone, it only adds to the sadness of each other." The key is to add trouble to each other. I don't have an uncle myself, this uncle, who I don't know is the uncle, who has been out of a few clothes.
Lin Yan looked at her with a calm smile, she was obviously a beautiful and rich Begonia, but she wanted to carry all the things that she could and couldn't, like the green bamboo in the front yard , and thinking of her wit and her ability to toss, the name "蠠" is also very appropriate...
Lin Yan nodded, smiled and said warmly, "Alright."
Sending Lin Shaoyin away, Shen Shaoguang remembered, no, don't we want to talk about the little loach that is not suitable for the big banquet? And that oolong gift...
Lin Yan walked back slowly with her hands behind her back. If she met Shen Biejia, it would be convenient to propose a kiss... Thinking of how she looked when she said loach today, Lin Yan pursed her lips and frowned. Think about it.
