Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 1606 Family Dinner
The reception banquet was prepared according to Song Jue's previous request. He told Jin Miaomiao that this is an ordinary family banquet, there is no need to have so many fancy things, as long as you can eat enough.

Jin Miaomiao listened to Song Jue's words, and sure enough, those delicate and frivolous dishes that they often see in palace banquets did not appear at the Fengfeng Banquet. But the method is a little more complicated than ordinary home cooking.

"Your Majesty, my lords, because it's already night, I didn't prepare a wide variety of dishes, and the amount of dishes is not very large. I want to avoid that after dinner, your majesty and lords can't digest it. If you accumulate food at night It’s not good.”

"Miao Miao is right, that's how it should be."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment." Jin Miaomiao smiled at Song Jue, who was sitting in the upper seat, then looked at the elders, and chuckled, "Don't be upset, it's not suitable to eat and drink at night, with all due respect , you are all getting old, you should eat less at night, it is good for your health, the doctor should agree with me, right? Of course, if you don’t feel like eating well, we can have a big meal at noon tomorrow Yes." She looked at the small table in front of her, "It must be richer than this."

"You think too much, we are not unhappy, in fact, this level is already very rich." Dai Wang looked at the food on his small case, and said cheerfully, "Look, there are boiled mutton and roasted mutton. Chicken nuggets, soup, vegetables, and steamed cakes, isn’t this very rich?” He glanced at Wu Qingruo next to him, “Don’t worry about him, he’s not unhappy because of what he ate, but he’s thinking about other things matter."

"What about me?" Wu Qingruo felt everyone's eyes, raised her head and looked, "What about me?"

"Tell me if you are angry because the welcome banquet is not rich enough."

"No, no!" Wu Qingruo waved his hand, "Don't get me wrong, it's not because of this, I was thinking about other things just now." He smiled at Jin Miaomiao, "It's already very good, we rarely eat such food at night There are many things." He looked down, picked up a small round cage, and there were four things that looked like steamed buns that he had never seen before. He looked at Jin Miaomiao and asked curiously, "This is What? I've never seen you do it before."

"My lord, this is also a kind of steamed stuffed bun. It's different from ordinary steamed stuffed buns. It's just that the making process is a bit more complicated, and nothing else is fine. This kind of steamed stuffed bun was brought from the grasslands in the north, and it also flourished in the Liao Kingdom for a while. In the beginning, it was only eaten by the nobles in the Liao Palace and in the Linhuang Mansion, but now it is the daily ration of ordinary people."

"Did you learn it last time when you followed Xiaocha to Linhuang Mansion?" Seeing Jin Miaomiao nodding with a smile, Dai Wang smiled, "Eat it like a normal bun? Just bite it like this?"

"Uncle Huang, Uncle Wang, look at me, let me demonstrate." Song Jue picked up one, dipped it in the sauce on the saucer at hand, took a sip, and stuffed the whole bun into his mouth. Chewed slowly for a while, then smiled at Prince Dai and Wu Qingruo, "It's very delicious."

"Then let's try."

Wu Qingruo and Prince Dai picked up a small bun at the same time, dipped it in the sauce like Song Jue, and took a small bite.

"Wow, although it doesn't seem to be stuffed with meat, but..." Prince Dai blinked his eyes, "It seems very fresh!"

"That's right, it's not meat, it's vegetarian stuffing, right?" Song Jue drank two mouthfuls of soup, looked at Jin Miaomiao who was slowly fighting with a piece of boiled mutton, "When I was in Beijing, you made the little buns Many times, there are different dipping ingredients. But today is the first time I have eaten this stuffing, and so is the sauce.”

"Does Your Majesty like it?" Jin Miaomiao ate the mutton on her plate and smiled at Song Jue, "Do you think it's delicious?"

"Well, I like it very much." Song Jue nodded, and picked up another small bun, "These two are very delicious when put together."

"As long as your Majesty likes it." Jin Miaomiao smiled, "Because I cooked mutton today and roasted chicken nuggets, this little bun is not stuffed with meat, but vegetarian stuffing. But , There is a dipping sauce for vegetarian fillings, this dipping sauce uses a very special secret recipe, made of dried shrimps, it goes well with the small buns with vegetarian fillings."

"It's really delicious, sister Miao Miao."

Song Qiyun quickly ate up all the buns in the small cage in front of him, and then went to snatch Bai Meng's next to him. Bai Meng protected his cage, preventing Song Qiyun from succeeding, but he won Song Qiyun himself. Big eyes.

He didn't get Bai Meng's, but he wanted to grab Xia Jiu's on the other side. When Bai Meng was protecting his little bun, Xia Jiu had quietly moved his cage a little farther to let Song Qiyun out of reach.

"You..." Song Qiyun yelled angrily. He rolled his eyes at Xia Jiu, snorted, stretched his chopsticks towards the roast chicken, and bit the chicken hard, just like Bai Meng and Xia Jiu. Like being bitten by him.

"Okay, Xiaoyun, I'll give you this." Shen Cha smiled helplessly, and asked Mei Lin to deliver his share to Song Qiyun's table, "I can't eat so much, so I'll give it to you if you like it so much." !"

"Thank you sister!"

Song Qiyun smiled at Shen Cha, and shook his head proudly at Bai Meng and Xia Jiu, making people hate him so much, wishing to bully him severely.

Bai Meng thought so, and did the same thing. Relying on her stature and long arms, she stretched out her hand and rubbed Song Qiyun's head fiercely several times, seeing him frantically grabbing her hand, I was very happy, the breath I was holding was finally released.

Shen Cha looked at the mess on the other side, smiled helplessly, put two pieces of boiled mutton and one piece of roast chicken on his own plate, and asked Mei Lin to bring the plates of boiled mutton and roast chicken to Xia Jiuhe respectively. In front of Shen Jiu.

"Why do you eat so little?" Shen Haolin looked at her, reached out to touch her forehead, and found that everything was normal, "No appetite?"

"I'm too hungry, so I don't want to eat, just eat a couple of bites." Shen Cha smiled, and took a small bun from Shen Haolin's cage drawer, without dipping it in sauce, just took a bite, whispering as he gnawed He said, "Go out for a stroll at night? I heard that there is a market today. Let's go and see it?"

"Okay!" Shen Haolin nodded, looked at the people who were eating and whispering, "The old people should go to bed early, but if we don't call His Majesty and Xiaobai, maybe it's not good?"

"Just ask them after dinner." Shen Cha thought for a while, "I guess they would really like to go. Brother Xiaojue said last time that it was a pity that he didn't go to the market. When he comes to the border next time, You must go and have a look, isn't the opportunity here? It's just that the market is at night, once we appear, we will definitely attract attention, and it is impossible to hide our identity. If Brother Xiaojue follows us, I am afraid that he will not be able to do whatever he wants Hanging around. But if we separate, we are not very relieved."

"Don't worry, just ask His Majesty if he has any plans to go. The market doesn't mean that it won't be closed after today. It will be open for several days. If we can't go today, there will always be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. It will always be possible. No regrets."
