MTL - Chang’an Small Restaurant-Chapter 80 Lin Yan and Pei Fei
The new restaurant just opened, and Shen Shaoguang was mostly in Qinrenfang. "Little lady just left", "Little lady should be back soon", "Little lady lives in Qinrenfang today"... Recently, every time Lin Yan went to a liquor store, Shen Ji's round-faced butler always said this.
Lin Yan was unhappy. Looking at the steward, Lin Yan wondered if A Li particularly liked a round face. Seeing her servants and maids, they were all round and round - but she herself was not round at all.
On the way to Qinrenfang on horseback with Pei Fei, Lin Yan was still thinking about this question. She's been busy for a while. I wonder if she is getting thinner? Whoever wants to turn his head will see the huge chrysanthemum fish, and there are four dignified characters.
You don't even need to look at the brand to know that it's Shen Ji. With these few words, Lin Yan pursed his lips, feeling that the privileges he had not enjoyed were offended by others.
Pei Fei also said next to him, "An Ran, you have to smile more, your little lady is so narrow-minded and loves to play, you have a sullen face all day long, more than the Han Li on the wall. To be solemn, how did this happen?"
Lin Yan glanced at him, in the end it was Shen Ji who entered Qinrenfang with a smile.
Shen Shaoguang was talking to the manager Xu Kai behind the counter. Although Xu Kai is a shrewd person and has been taken in an old shop for a while, but he is the shopkeeper of a liquor store for the first time, and there is still a lot to improve.
As he was talking, the door curtain rang, and Shen Shaoguang raised his head: "Lin Langjun, Pei Langjun—"
I didn't expect these two to come to join us so soon. It's almost time, did you come here after the meeting? Then they should have eaten under the corridor... Of course, it does not rule out the possibility that they came here to eat with their stomachs.
Shen Shaoguang pondered in his heart, and joked lightly in his mouth: "The two gentlemen, it's really 'where in life do not meet'."
Pei Fei laughed, even Lin Yan raised his eyebrows.
I am too familiar with them, Shen Shaoguang handed over the recipe, and then introduced "today's special dish", "Today there is roasted pheasant. The pheasant sent by the hunters this morning is already coated in oil, It's very fat and tender, with some burnt aroma, sprinkled with cumin powder, it's the best drink."
"There is fresh sea bass, although it is not Songjiang four-billed sea bass, but it is also very plump, should I eat it on a fire, or should I just cut some fish fillets? Today's sea bass is very big, it is not suitable to steam it, otherwise it is steamed to eat Excellent too."
Pei Fei eats free food, so Lin Yan chooses what to eat.
Lin Yan remembered the "beautiful meal" outside, but what he said was "Little lady just watched the arrangement."
Shen Shaoguang said: "Then let's cut the fish fillet. The best way to keep the umami taste, the two Langjun also tasted the new gold jelly we made a few days ago."
Shen Shaoguang also served several dishes such as stir-fried chrysanthemum, honeydew lamb chops, eel chestnut, shrimp tofu, and a mushroom and spinach soup.
Hearing that there is spinach soup, Pei Fei nodded with a smile: "This soup is excellent."
Shen Shaoguang doesn't understand, drink a spinach soup, as for how smiling like a flower?
When Princess Fuhui came in, she saw Pei Fei's smiling face, hehe...
Shen Shaoguang turned back and hurried over to meet him.
The eldest princess is an old resident of Qinrenfang, and many people in the workshop know her. Seeing her coming, the diners, including Lin Yan and Pei Fei, all saluted seriously. The eldest princess waved her hands and went straight to the food table that Lin and Pei were sitting on. The high-foot dining table was occupied, and they still used the snack table. .
The eldest princess came, and the diners next to her did not dare to eat with her, so they all ran away. Shen Shaoguang instructed the steward Xu Kai to give a discount, and some simply waived the order - Shen Shaoguang thought a little bit painfully, I hope the nobles at the table can fill the hole.
Shen Shaoguang presented the menu and asked the gentleman what he wanted to eat.
"It's the one on the wall at the entrance." Princess Fuhui glanced at her and smiled, "The rest, the little lady can do whatever she wants."
Shen Shaoguang agreed, and was about to leave when she heard Princess Fuhui ask, "Have I seen the little lady somewhere?"
"Er original opened a wine shop in Chongxian Square, and the noble went to eat hot pot and gave him an armband."
Elder Princess Fuhui looked at Shen Shaoguang again, "I remember..."
Seeing that she had no other orders, Shen Shaoguang went to the kitchen to make arrangements.
Only serving these three people, the time was not very big, and Shen Shaoguang took the hall to bring the dishes one by one.
Looking at the chrysanthemum fish in front of her, Princess Fuhui took a chopstick and tasted it, "Very good!"
Shen Shaoguang smiled, that's naturally good, according to your taste, add two more spoons of sugar than normal.
Elder Princess Fuhui glanced at Pei Fei and then at Shen Shaoguang: "It's so palatable twice, does the little lady have similar taste to me?"
Lin Yan frowned, just as he was about to say something, Shen Shaoguang said solemnly: "Please forgive your sins, and let the women speak bluntly. The tastes of the people and the nobles may be very different: you are from a noble master. Noble, I love those that are bright in color and sweet in taste; women who live in the countryside only love the light ones.”
Shen Shaoguang pointed to the sea bass that Paotang brought up, "It looks light, but it actually has a lot of flavor. Mixed with golden glutinous rice and green mustard, it is spicy and sour, and it is delicious!"
Elder Princess Fuhui looked at Shen Shaoguang, Shen Shaoguang smiled.
Light... Princess Fuhui looked at Lin Yan with understanding. In fact, although Princess Fuhui is on her birthday, she would not do this to a high-ranking official in a red robe on weekdays, but who made him Pei Fei's friend?
Lin Yan pursed her lips, and Pei Fei was quite embarrassed over there. He and An Ran were compared to two little ladies...
After a while, Princess Fuhui raised a beautiful brow and asked with a smile, "Is it really enough?"
Shen Shaoguang swallowed and said, "It's a bit choking!
Eldest Princess Fuhui laughed "pochi", looked at the fish with two different methods, and said after a while, "It can be seen that the taste is indeed different."
Shen Shaoguang nodded in agreement, yes, yes, fortunately the taste is different.
Princess Fuhui continued to eat her chrysanthemum fish with great interest, and also tasted yam, honey-sauce lamb chops, goosefoot, etc., and finally ate a small bowl of sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus rice dumplings .
Shen Shaoguang explained, "It is probably not easy to store, so there are few fresh osmanthus on the market."
Elder Princess Fuhui waved her hand: "I'll give you some, the osmanthus trees in the back garden are also white."
Shen Shaoguang hurriedly thanked him and said, "I have used the osmanthus of the noble, and asked the noble to give me a name."
Elder Princess Fuhui thought for a while: "It's the 'Chixia Guixiangyuan'."
"So - our shop also has osmanthus porridge, osmanthus sugar cake, osmanthus glutinous rice lotus, osmanthus duck..." Shen Shaoguang couldn't help but laugh.
Eldest Princess Fuhui has never seen such a person who can follow the pole and be afraid, and she couldn't help but feel resentful, "If I could be like you, in addition to this Chixia Garden, the Tong Garden in Zhongnan Mountain, If you can get Bitan Village by the Weishui River, how can Jiuniang and Shiniang be cheaper.”
Shen Shaoguang is also distressed for her, the other business in Zhongnan Mountain, the holiday house by the Weishui... It turns out that the princess also has the same dream of buying a home that can't be found!
Shen Shaoguang said with infinite longing: "At this time, the game on the mountain has become fat, and he led people to hunt some hares, deer, deer, pheasants, etc. in Zhongnan Mountain, and put them on the barbecue branches. If you like something sweet, brush it with honey and bake it layer by layer; if you like something salty, dip it in salt and pepper; if you like something spicy, sprinkle it with cornel and cumin pepper…”
"One year Hachiro hit a strange-looking thing, brown body, black and white hair, like a cat but not a cat, like a raccoon but not a raccoon, so we roasted it in the mountains and ate it , very fragrant and tender. Later, Song Fu heard about it and asked us if the beast had a mane with a white tail, and he said that even if it was a 'Fei Fei', raising it would relieve worries." Princess Fuhui said that it was about ten years ago. "Hachiro" is the king of Heyang with a beautiful male concubine.
Shen Shaoguang thought about it and gave a professional opinion: "If you hunt again, the nobleman will try to pickle it, steam it with honey wine, and eat it quickly."
Elder Princess Fuhui nodded: "It should not be greasy after being marinated."
Listening to the two coming and going to discuss eating the mythical beasts in the "Shan Hai Jing", Lin Yan had a bad hunch that this place is so close to the residence of Princess Fuhui, Mr. Handing over with this unruly eldest princess, don't be kidnapped...
"In spring, it's better to live by the Weishui River. Fishing while the peach blossoms are flooded may catch big fish." The topic of the two people had turned to the Weishui River.
Shen Shaoguang felt that the eldest princess was very poetic and could live: "Peach blossoms flowing water mandarin fish fat", the mandarin fish meat at this time is the most tender, even if you add some salt to boil the fish soup, it is fresh very.
Shen Shaoguang also suggested to Princess Fuhui: "The soft-shelled turtle is also delicious in spring, so there is a saying in the south that 'cauliflower is yellow, soft-shelled turtle is fat'. Soft-shelled turtle is a tricky thing, but use some chicken liver , mutton as bait, don't worry about it not being hooked. This spring, the soft-shelled turtle is braised, steamed, boiled in soup, stewed with chicken and venison, all delicious."
Letting Lin and Pei aside, Princess Fuhui and Shen Shaoguang talked from eating and drinking to buying a property, and then from buying a property to eating and drinking, and then they simply talked about fashion.
Until later she said she was tired, Princess Fuhui said with a smile: "I can wait for someone who can talk! I'll see you another day."
Shen Shaoguang smiled and said, "I can't ask for it."
Lin Yan looked solemn, but Pei Fei was very calm.
Before leaving, the eldest princess did not leave any money - this means that Shen Shaoguang is not regarded as an ordinary merchant. Shen Shaoguang thanked her for her respect, but felt that if she took another pair of gold inlaid treasures It's not disrespectful to send yourself a bracelet.
Who would have thought that the next day, the eldest princess sent someone a box of fresh osmanthus flowers, which was bigger than the box of roses sent by Lin Shaoyin that day. People are sending it. The long princess is mighty! Favorite princess! Shen Shaoguang immediately turned into a licking dog. How many delicious osmanthus can be made with such fresh osmanthus.
For another two days, when Shen Shaoguang was still harassing and tinkering with those fresh osmanthus flowers, Princess Fuhui sent another one the size of a palm, half an inch thick, and inlaid with a circle of gold moiré patterns. The silver medal is about the same size as today's special dishes hanging behind the counter. It says "Chixia and Guixiang". The best part is that there are several small circles below, where you can hang things.
Shen Shaoguang was simply moved, the long princess is so cute. Immediately, this delicate inlaid gold and silver plaque was hung on the hook of the special dish, with several small plaques hanging below, "Osmanthus Sugar Cake", "Osmanthus Duck" and "Osmanthus Chestnut Soup".
Manager Xu Kai has been living a magical life recently. He used to be in charge of the county magistrate's house, but he was invincible when he saw a county magistrate. He was sold to this restaurant in Beijing. On the first day, he saw Jingzhao Shaoyin who came in casual clothes. He was assigned to this store. Princess Fuhui is in the same square, and I have thought about it, is there a day when I can meet this noble master for a trip? Who would have thought that the eldest princess would come to the store to eat in person, and she even gave sweet-scented osmanthus flowers and dishes!
Xu Kai felt that this matter was enough to talk about for a lifetime.
