Chapter 617

"It's so ridiculous. The old man thought he was discussing important matters, but he didn't expect to come to see the cook, Lan Tianhou, cooking? It's an insult to gentleness, and it's really embarrassing for us and other nobles!

Lan Tianhou treats us so slowly, please forgive me for not being with me. "

An old man in his 60s was furious and was about to turn around and leave.

Many people also started shouting, and Zheng Wenyong stepped forward to persuade: "Brother Wang, why bother to be angry? Everyone in the world knows Lantian Hou's culinary skills. He said that he chatted while eating, and it seemed that he was afraid of the tense atmosphere. Please calm down." Don't be impatient, okay?"

The old man is the patriarch of the Langya Wang clan, a prominent family in Shandong, and even Zheng Wenyong wants to give him three points.

Seeing this, Yu Chigong felt depressed that Bai Fan had to pick up people by himself. This is really a hard job, why didn't he call a literati?If you want to be a big boss, if you have a bad temper, wouldn't you be able to slap these old men to death?
But complaints are complaints. Although Yu Chigong was reckless, he didn't dare to shoot stabs among this group of people. Although Yu Chigong was not tactful in the court for many years, he still understood this accident. Ji Ji couldn't offend this group of people at all. If it wasn't for the position of General Youwuwei, he might not even be able to get in the way here.

Because the aristocrats of the Tang family have always looked down on these military generals who were born as commoners, Yu Chigong's way of life is to follow the emperor Li Er closely, and be loyal to the emperor Li Er, so there is no need to talk about other court routines. It is also a simple and crude way of self-preservation.

After sorting out his thoughts, Yu Chigong said, "Ahem!
All the clan elders were entrusted by the Marquis of Lantian to welcome everyone on their behalf, but Marquis of Lantian showed all his sincerity for this meeting.

Everyone, don't underestimate him because of his cooking. I remember that when Lan Tianhou first debuted, many people in the court criticized him for cooking, but what he said, he said that the gentleman far away from the kitchen is a descendant Taken out of context, this debate must have been heard by everyone.

Old Hei, I am a vulgar person with little knowledge, but I can understand what he says makes sense.

And he has a good saying, no matter whether cooking is a gentleman or not, cooking to feed your family is not ashamed, and cooking to feed your parents is an act of filial piety.

You all sneered at his cooking today, but you probably don't know how many people in Chang'an City are looking forward to eating a meal cooked by Lan Tianhou himself, because he is the originator of the new generation of gourmet food in the Tang Dynasty.

But he doesn't cook for others very often. Apart from being a good husband at home and cooking for his wife and children, he also cooks two delicious meals from time to time to honor his aunt, Mrs. Wei, or his parents-in-law, King Jin. Husband and wife, and the rest, even His Majesty, the second uncle of the natal family, can't be ranked.

Today he can cook for you personally, which shows his sincerity.

To put it bluntly, I am not afraid of the jokes of the elders of the clan. I, Old Hei, have been looking forward to him cooking for a long time, and today I am still honored by everyone. Let’s put aside the etiquette and face, I can guarantee that what Jian Zhi did this time Delicious, it will definitely satisfy everyone's appetite for life. "

Yuchi Gong's words made many old people in the room look at this black-faced general with admiration. They didn't expect that Yuchi Jingde, who always claimed to be a reckless man, could speak clearly and logically, which was not easy.

"Hmph, am I waiting here for my appetite?"

Li Derao, an old man from the Li family in Zhao County, said: "It's okay, maybe Lan Tianhou's move has other meanings. I am looking forward to it. General Yuchi, I will lead the way."

With this big guy speaking, no one dared not show face, Yuchi Jingde hurriedly walked in front to lead the way for everyone.

Chang'an County Canteen is a new big canteen built from demolition of private houses in the county. A strange fragrance that can instantly arouse human appetite.

Hiss... what kind of fragrance is this?
This question flashed through many people's minds, and the patriarch of the Wang family in Taiyuan said in surprise: "The old man is not feeling well recently, and his food intake has decreased due to his old age. These days, he is even more unwilling to eat, and even delicious delicacies are hard to swallow. Today, smelling this kind of fragrance, I suddenly felt a sense of increased appetite. Hou Lantian's cooking skills are really incredible, General Yuchi, I don't know where Master Hou is? Can the old man go and have a look."

"Hahahaha, Xiao Wang, that's nothing to you. The old man has devoted himself to practicing Buddhism for many years and has already observed the precepts. Today, when he smells this fragrance, he has the urge to break the precepts. Although he knows that it contains the smell of meat, there is nothing in his stomach. Still can't resist the urge to try it.

With this ability alone, Hou Lantian deserves the reputation of the Datang God of Cookery. "The old man of the Li family in Zhao County laughed loudly.

At this time, I saw Bai Fan holding a huge iron pot with both hands, which was filled with a pot of delicacies, floating from the back kitchen, as if the five-foot-diameter cauldron had no weight in his hands, Yuchi Gongman The face of admiration, this pot must be at least a few hundred catties when it is full, and judging by the steaming appearance, I am afraid that the iron pot has just been taken off the fire.

There may only be such a daring guy with a high skill in the world who can do this. Usually, several strong men in the cafeteria carry it out, or put it in a wooden barrel and bring it out.

"Seniors, I was delayed in cooking, and I have lost my way, please forgive me.

This pot is made by Fan himself, and I am here to entertain everyone from afar. Chang'an County canteen rules, do it yourself, please come in line, and the boy will serve a bowl for each of the seniors, so that everyone can also taste my unique Chang'an County. gourmet food. "

As soon as Bai Fan appeared, that kind of approachable affinity immediately made people feel close, and at the same time, that kind of high-ranking temperament made dissatisfied people no longer dare to speak presumptuously. They could only sigh and lower their heads. People have had serious eye surgery before, and this guy is more fearsome than the emperor.

"Okay, since you're here, you have to do what you want. In short, what kind of food is this? The smell will make people's appetite go up. Come, give uncle a bowl."

Zheng Wenyong was the first to join in, and Bai Fan smiled and filled a bowl and handed it over, and said mysteriously: "Uncle, I will reveal after tasting it first, this meal is related to today's events."

There were more than 100 nobles in the audience, plus one person and one personal entourage, almost 300 people. Bai Fan felt amused when he saw that everyone was drooling but not moving their chopsticks. This is the etiquette of nobles. We have to start eating at the same time, so no one is rude to start first.

A quarter of an hour later, the people who were supposed to taste the delicious food and then talk about it had forgotten to talk about it, but lined up again, thinking that one bowl was not enough, and wanted two more bowls.

Bai Fan is secretly happy in his heart, he bought your stomachs, and the next step is to take your hearts.

"I don't know if this bowl of beef stew with potatoes can catch the eyes of seniors?" Bai Fan asked with a smile looking at the belching old people.

"Yeah, this kind of delicacy is hard to find in the world, the best, the best!"

"This is the most delicious meal this old man has ever had in his life."

Everyone was full of praise, and they were not as wary of Bai Fan as before, but Li Derao of the Li family in Zhao County noticed the name of the dish and exclaimed: "Potato stewed beef? This, is this made by fairy food?"

"Beef? Marquis Lantian, killing cattle in the Tang Dynasty is a felony. How dare you know the law and break the law?"

Someone immediately stood up and looked at Bai Fan in disbelief.
