I Wore It Back After 60 Years

Chapter 1281 Changing the Menu

As a result, the Hundred Days Banquet menu with Buddha Jumping over the Wall as the main course cannot be used.

It doesn't matter how the family eats, the meat is rotten in the pot, outsiders don't know, but the country advocates hard work and simplicity, and the leaders treat guests with the standard of four dishes and one soup, they can't be too outrageous.

It's not that I don't want to entertain them well, it's just that the situation doesn't allow it!
A few old comrades came over, and there must be guards accompanying them to protect them. There are too many people, and it is easy to leak secrets.

Xia Mingxing immediately discussed with Li Xingxing to change the menu, "In the future, I will cook Buddha Jumping Over the Wall alone for you and your family to eat. I won't do it this time. Let's prepare three tables, two pairs of parents, Uncle Zhao, Aunt Lanyu, eldest brother, and old comrades." We sit at the same table, we sit at the same table with my sister-in-law, Qinghui, Dapao, and the Second Pao Daichangsheng, and the guards and life secretaries, do you think it will work?"

"I think it's okay!" Li Xingxing affirmed, "Everyone sits at a big table, and many dishes are needed to eat, which seems very extravagant. It's not the same to serve dishes separately. A table with many people will serve more dishes, and there will be fewer people. If you want to eat a few less dishes, and you don’t cook delicacies from mountains and seas, it looks much more simple.”

After dinner, everyone was sitting in the big living room talking, Lan Yu heard their conversation, and interjected: "I'll sit at the same table with you, I'm so young, don't arrange me to sit at the head."

I can't afford it, I can't afford it.

Moreover, she will feel uncomfortable all over.

Living in the market for more than ten years, I have long been impatient with the way of socializing with dignitaries.

Xia Xingxing agreed, "It's up to you, you don't think we're neglecting you, you'll take the seat of our young people, what kind of food do you want to eat? This time there are no delicacies from mountains and seas, let's keep it simple."

Lan Yu blurted out: "Braised pork!"

She just loves this bite, and thinks it tastes better than any delicacies from mountains and seas.

Xia Mingxing nodded slightly, and wrote down the first dish in his notebook, "In addition to the braised pork, make another Wensi tofu, a stewed lion's head, a steamed large yellow croaker, and a scrambled egg with shrimp."

The first two are state banquet dishes, and the latter two are immediately grounded.

After hearing this, Li Xingxing gave him some advice: "Little Brother Xia, this won't work. There are too few four dishes and one soup, which doesn't show the grandeur of our family, but more than four dishes and one soup will easily make the old comrades feel extravagant. Why don't you listen to me, let's set up a meal sharing system, everyone has four dishes and one soup plus snacks and staple food, Wensi tofu and stewed lion's head are especially suitable."

Is it a plate of four lion heads for the whole table to eat?Or one person and one lion head are grand?

Of course the latter.

Sapphire agreed, "Xing Xing is right. Get one braised pork, one stewed lion's head, one Wensi tofu, and if you have cabbage, you can also have fresh cabbage. It's a pity that cabbage in summer is not delicious, but you can make it for stars." A mandarin duck chicken porridge, one bowl of mandarin duck chicken porridge per person, is nutritious and can show your ability. Although four dishes and one soup are the standard, we don’t have to be so rigid. You two think about another dish and one soup, and make it together Four dishes, one soup and one porridge, plus staple food and snacks."

"Wensi Tofu is actually a soup, tofu soup." Li Xingxing said.

"Then I was thinking about two dishes." Sapphire corrected her words.

Xia Xingxing said: "I can't live without fish. Add a dish of squirrel mandarin fish and a dish of shiitake mushrooms, so that there are meat and vegetables, which is pleasing to the eye. Then, assorted fried rice with three meat and four vegetables is the staple food, and red dates, wolfberry and tremella soup are the main food." For dessert, add a snack and an ice cream, and prepare some drinks, how about it?"

Everyone nodded in unison and said in unison: "Not bad, not bad!"

The menu for the Hundred Days Banquet was decided like this.
