Nongmen fierce girl head chef

Chapter 1190 The Rules

After crying and venting, Xiao He has slowly recovered her calm, and it will not be too long before she calms down.

The waiter in the lobby ran over and whispered something in shopkeeper Liu's ear. Shopkeeper Liu's eyes widened in surprise, and he nodded to tell the boy to go back.

Lin Yuan knew that there must be something wrong, so she persuaded Xiao He to go to the room to wash her face and rest.

After Xiao He left, Shopkeeper Liu came over and said softly, "Girl, Master Wan and the others have already left."

Lin Yuan nodded. Since Wan Jinnian has already settled down in the capital, there will always be a chance to meet in the future, so let's leave today.

Shopkeeper Liu glanced at the room where Xiaohe was, and lowered his voice: "That Mrs. Wan, quietly sent a message to the young man, saying that she hopes to meet Miss Xiaohe in private."

Meet?

This surprised Lin Yuan, but Mrs. Chen obviously left in a hurry, and didn't say specifically when and where they would meet, but said that someone would come over to spread the word in the future.

Thinking about the situation of the Chen family just now, Lin Yuan also guessed that the position of the Chen family in Wanfu must not be very good, so she understood a lot about it.

However, she still told Xiaohe truthfully about the meeting, and let her make up her own mind in the future.

Unexpectedly, Xiao He didn't speak, and didn't even show any joy, excitement, or surprise on his face. He just listened quietly, as if what Lin Yuan said had nothing to do with him.

"Xiaohe, you..."

"She's already married, so how can she meet me? I'm living a good life now, and she doesn't have to worry about me, as long as she lives a good life."

After leaving this sentence, Xiao He went out of the room "vigorously" and went back to the back kitchen to work.

This girl, although she said that she would not complain, she still couldn't get over this hurdle in her heart!

Ugh!
Sighing, Lin Yuan shook her head lightly. After all, Xiaohe was still too small. If she thought about it carefully or took a closer look, it should not be difficult to see that the Chen family was not favored by Wan Jinnian.

Chen must have had no choice but to turn a blind eye before. Now that she took the initiative to pass on the message, it can be seen that she is still worried about this daughter.

It's really not worrying!

Shaking her head, Lin Yuan also went back to her private room to eat. After such a commotion at noon, she didn't even have a meal!
It's just that before the meal was finished, shopkeeper Liu sent another post.

This time it was a lot easier.

It was a post sent by Xu Muqing's maid, saying that the flowers are blooming in spring, and I hope to pick a good day to invite some friends to go out for an outing.

The post also mentioned several good friends that Xu Muqing planned to invite, including Yan Ruchun, Tian Hui, and Tian Xuan.Of course, her favorite brother Rong is also indispensable.

Looking at the post, the corners of Lin Yuan's lips could not help but twitch. The ancients called it an outing, but they prefer to call it a picnic. In fact, it is a group of friends who happen to go out together in spring.

However, since Wei Borong will also participate, the men from Wei Boyu and Cheng Haoxuan will also be there.

I don't know if Xia Zheng will be free then?

After accepting the post, Lin Yuan asked the little girl who came to deliver the post to send a message back, saying that she has time anytime and can prepare a lot of delicious things to bring with her.

I don't know if it's because Lin Yuan agreed to the invitation, or because she said she wanted to bring delicious food, the smile on the little maid's face became brighter, and she kept responding, and when she turned to leave, she was so excited that she almost slammed into the door up.

Lin Yuan pursed her lips amusedly. Could it be that "where there is a master, there must be a servant"?Even the little maid next to Xu Muqing is a snack!
Ever since I met Chen Shi once, I haven't heard from her for many days.

Xiaohe was still talking and laughing every day when he came home, but Liu and the others could still see that something was wrong with her.

Lin Yuan had no choice but to tell Liu about Mrs. Chen.

After hearing that Mrs. Chen remarried a sixty-year-old man as his successor, Mrs. Liu sighed several times and said "committed crimes" repeatedly.

Lin Yuan also agrees with this very much. Although Wan Jinnian is rich, he has three legitimate sons under his knees, not to mention concubines and concubines.

Now that he is still alive, the Chen family may still have a few years to live a happy life, but what about a hundred years from now?
A stepmother without children, and without the backing of a strong natal family, the future will definitely not be optimistic.

However, neither of them mentioned these words to Xiaohe. She doesn't even know what her feelings for Chen Shi are now. Others talking about it will only increase her troubles.

The sixth day of March was the day when the second prince and Yao Hanyan got married. After so long entanglement, Yao Hanyan finally got his wish and married into the second prince's mansion.

However, a few days before the good times passed, Yao Hanyan's troubles came.

March [-]th is the day when the side concubine Tang Ruyan enters the mansion.

Although she was a side concubine, she was a concubine after all, so Zhao Hongsheng didn't give Tang Ruyan an ostentatious wedding like Yao Hanyan's, but just carried her into the mansion gate in a sedan chair before evening.

However, the name of concubine and side concubine is nothing to the scheming Tang Ruyan. Who said that being a concubine will be able to do well?
Even the queen is deposed sometimes, let alone a little prince and concubine?
Tang Ruyan can bear it, but Yao Hanyan is not a person who can bear it.

Before she got married, she was arrogant and arrogant. In the past, when she went out with Zhao Hongsheng, she couldn't help but play tricks with Tang Ruyan.

Now that she has the constraints of identity, she will not let go of such a good opportunity.

Although it was only a day, the friction between Yao Hanyan and Tang Ruyan spread throughout the circle of ladies in the capital, even Lin Yuan, who didn't often associate with official girls, knew about it.

As a side concubine, the first thing Tang Ruyan did after entering the door was to serve tea to Yao Hanyan who was the main concubine.

In fact, this is a very common thing, and the general housewife will not set rules for the concubine on the first day she enters the house.

But Yao Hanyan stood up.

When accepting the offer of tea, I don't know who accidentally knocked over the teacup. Anyway, the scalding tea fell to the ground, and by coincidence, some of it just spilled on Yao Hanyan's lap.

Yao Hanyan got angry on the spot, raised her hand and slapped Tang Ruyan, smashing the delicate hairpin on her head to pieces, making her very embarrassed.

In fact, Tang Ruyan was the one who was really scalded by the tea, most of the cup of tea spilled on her hands.

But her status was there, and Tang Ruyan was a smart woman, even though she felt wronged, she didn't immediately refute, especially after being slapped by Yao Hanyan, she knelt on the ground obediently and didn't move.

But her confidant maid had already slipped out quietly.

After all, Tang Ruyan lived in the second prince's mansion for a while, so her foundation and confidantes are naturally more stable and much stronger than Yao Hanyan who just entered the mansion less than half a month ago.

Seeing Tang Ruyan knelt on the ground with a weak face and remained silent, completely lacking the energy to confront her before getting married, Yao Hanyan was both happy and arrogant in her heart, so she became even more determined to vent all the grievances she had suffered before getting married.

Thinking about it this way, she casually sent Tang Ruyan to kneel for an hour, and waited until the second prince came back from the palace before going to the bridal chamber in her own courtyard.

An hour was neither long nor short, so Tang Ruyan knelt down obediently, but for some reason, the girl rolled her eyes and turned her body with a bang, after kneeling for less than a cup of tea. Just fainted.

Fortunately, the maid who was following her caught her quickly, otherwise, if the real marble floor fell on it, wouldn't her head bleed?
When Yao Hanyan was with his mother at the University Master's Mansion, he was naturally used to seeing her methods of punishing concubines, so when Tang Ruyan fainted, he just sneered and motioned for Mo Zhu beside him to splash her with cold water Awake.

Although it is already spring, it is very cold to splash the body with cold water in the evening.

Mo Zhu hesitated for a moment, and when he was about to persuade, Zhao Hongsheng's roar sounded outside the door.

Yao Hanyan trembled in fright, feeling a little embarrassed and embarrassed like being caught by an adult in public for doing something wrong.

But when he thought of his status as mistress, he suppressed his inner anxiety and sat still.

Zhao Hongsheng didn't like her at first, and always regretted the wrong step he took at the beginning.

In addition, there were not many Qingliu scholars under Yao Shijiang's men, which made him even more annoyed.Therefore, during the ten days when Yao Hanyan married into the mansion, he only shared the same room with her on the day of the bridal chamber, and slept alone in the study room the rest of the time.

And the only night when they were in the same room, they didn't do anything. One snored in bed, and the other sat on the edge of the bed with a hijab and cried until dawn alone.

Seeing Tang Ruyan who had fainted, Zhao Hongsheng felt distressed and angry at the same time, he hugged her and sent her back to the yard himself.

Before leaving, he warned Yao Hanyan provocatively not to touch her in the future.

How could Yao Hanyan swallow this shame in front of the whole family?
But no matter how much she couldn't swallow, she couldn't do anything, her most urgent task now was how to win over the man's heart.

After a night of ideological struggle, Yao Hanyan woke up early the next morning to confess his mistake with Zhao Hongsheng.But unexpectedly, a thunderbolt fell head-on.

Tang Ruyan is pregnant!
A concubine who had just entered the mansion was pregnant for one month, Yao Hanyan blushed with anger, and immediately threw all kinds of porcelain jewelry in her room clean!

No wonder he fainted after kneeling for a while, no wonder Zhao Hongsheng cared more about her than himself, it turned out that the embryo had already been secretly knotted!

When Xu Muqing and the others came to Dongtian to discuss with Lin Yuan the next day's outing, they couldn't help talking about Yao Hanyan and Tang Ruyan.

Yan Ruchun always disliked Yao Hanyan, and talking about her at this time was even more disdainful.

"I've seen that this woman is stupid a long time ago, but I didn't expect to be so stupid. Then Tang Ruyan is not a good person at first glance, she can't see it! Hmph, what a waste of her reputation as the most talented woman in the capital !"

Lin Yuan shrugged. The number one talented woman in the capital only said that Yao Hanyan was better at piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, etc., but these things were of no use at all when it came to dealing with rear-end affairs.

Yao Hanyan may be a bit smart, but when she was in her natal family, Mrs. Yao personally took care of the concubines in her family. Although she had seen it, she had never done it. Naturally, she couldn't compare to the scheming Tang Ruyan.

What's more, Tang Ruyan's father, Tang Qing, is not a simple person!

Xu Muqing was not clear about these official affairs, but she had heard a lot about the affairs between Yao Hanyan and Tang Ruyan.

While eating the spicy strips that Xiaohe specially brought over for them, she pursed her lips and said, "I don't think Miss Yao is not only a talented woman, but also a bit stupid. The side concubine Tang is also a side concubine, how can she make her the number one concubine?" How about kneeling and fainting as soon as Tian entered the door? She doesn't even think about her own reputation!"

For Xu Muqing's words, Lin Yuan was probably the only one present who could understand.

Although Yan Ruchun's family has no concubines, they have two concubines.

Not to mention Tian Xuan, there are not only several concubines in the family, but also many concubine children.

Like this kind of thing where the mistress disowns the concubine and sets the rules, which mansion doesn't have one or two incidents?

That is to say, there is no one in Xu Muqing's family. Although Xu Muqing's parents can't be said to be very loving, at least they don't have concubines. It's no wonder that she doesn't understand Yao Hanyan's approach.

cough cough.

Clearing her throat, Tian Xuan quickly changed the subject, and said with a smile, "Let's not talk about them anymore, let's discuss the outing tomorrow. Mu Qing, didn't you say you want to go out to play? Have you decided where to go? "

As soon as the outing was mentioned, everyone's interest immediately increased a lot. Xu Muqing took a bite of the spicy strips, dangled the remaining spicy strips in his hand, and said with a smile: "Of course I've thought about it. Twenty miles west of the capital, there is Yiqing Mountain, shall we go there?"

“This place is nice.”

Tian Xuan clapped her palms and smiled happily: "There is a very beautiful small lake in the south of Yiqing Mountain. Because it is at the foot of the mountain and sunny, this place is very warm, and the spring welcomes earlier than the other side."

All of them were born and raised in the capital, so they are naturally very familiar with the scenery around the capital.

Tian Xuan introduced the scenery of Yiqing Mountain to Lin Yuanhaosheng again, and it really is a beautiful place with beautiful mountains and clear waters.

Since the Chinese New Year this year, Lin Yuan has been exposed to unhappy things, and she just needs a chance to make adjustments.This outing is indeed a good opportunity.

The few people agreed on the time and place to meet the next day and the food to bring, and they went home to prepare.

Before leaving, Xu Muqing deliberately stayed behind to ask Lin Yuan what delicious food she wanted to bring.

Lin Yuan smiled mysteriously, and naturally didn't tell her, but the food she prepared never disappoints, and Xu Muqing still had high expectations for it.

Originally, Lin Yuan planned to let Lin Wei and Xiao Linshuang go with her, but this time she was going out with not only the women but also their favorite people. It was really inconvenient to take Lin Wei and Xiao Linshuang with her, so she had to Let it go.

However, Lin Yuan has already made up her mind. If Yi Qingshan's trip is happy this time, she will find time to bring the whole family to play together.

There are also grandpa and grandma, Zheng Ruyue's son is almost one year old, and he will come to live in the capital with him this year.

It should be there when the weather gets warmer.At that time, the whole family will go out for an outing together, and it will definitely be very lively.

It is now the middle of March in the lunar calendar, and if calculated according to the Gregorian calendar that Lin Yuan lived in before, it is almost exactly the time when Qingming has just passed.

The most suitable thing to eat at this time is the Youth League, so Lin Yuan prepared a lot of Youth League for this outing.

Qingtuan, as the name suggests, is a small green dumpling with a sticky and glutinous taste, wrapped in the smell of spring grass, very refreshing and delicious.

The method of Qingtuan is actually very simple, but it is somewhat similar to glutinous rice balls.

The glutinous rice is also ground into flour, but some fresh wormwood buds that just grow in spring are added to the dough.

The wormwood is blanched in boiling water first, and then the juice is smashed out with a small hammer.When kneading the noodles, if you add too much wormwood juice, the color of the green dough will be dark green. If you want that clear and light color, you must reduce the amount of wormwood juice.

As for the filling of the Qingtuan, it is even more casual, such as salted egg yolk or bean paste, there is nothing you can't think of.

According to everyone's tastes, Lin Yuan made several common green balls, including red bean paste fillings, jujube paste fillings, and some salty egg yolk fillings.

Although the Youth League is often used to discuss which flavor is better, Lin Yuan actually prefers the sweet flavor. As for what Yan Ruchun and the others like, Lin Yuan is not sure.

But she is very clear about Xu Muqing's taste, this girl must like everyone, and she wants to eat up everyone!

Qingtuan can be eaten when it is cold, or it can be eaten while it is hot.

Since they were going out for an outing, they had already agreed during the discussion that they would bring the food they had prepared before going and never eat at the restaurant stall next door.

So it is definitely necessary to light a fire when you arrive at the place. Put the green balls on the fire and heat them up, and you can eat hot green balls that don't stick to your teeth.

In addition to the Youth League, Lin Yuan also prepared some other meals, including rice balls and fried chicken.

Onigiri is very simple, it is to knead the previous rice into a ball, and then put some favorite meat seasoning on it.

Of course, fillings such as egg strips, cucumber strips, and radish strips can also be placed in rice and rolled into the shape of sushi.

It's just a pity that Dayong is not adjacent to the sea, and there is no seaweed available, so Lin Yuan can only use dried bean curd on the outside of the sushi instead.

The bean curds were marinated with seasonings in advance. When Lin Yuan was making rice balls, Xia Zheng sneaked over to taste one.

In his words, it tastes weird, but it's still delicious when you taste it carefully.

The rice ball is done, and the fried chicken is even better. Cut the chicken breast into pieces, stick it with flour and egg liquid, then put it in the oil pan to cook, and finally wrap it with a layer of seasoning while it is hot.

"It's a pity that there is no cumin!"

After tasting a fried chicken that was simply coated with salt and pepper powder, Lin Yuan couldn't help sighing.

Xia Zheng, who was devouring his food, paused for a moment, and asked, "Cumin? Is it the thing Beirong people put on mutton? The choking one?"

Lin Yuan raised her brows, a little surprised that Xia Zheng knew Zizi.

What surprised him even more was that this guy even knew the living habits of Beirong people.

Could it be that the relationship between Beirong and Dayong has eased?
Never heard of it!

Although there have been fewer students coming out to discuss political affairs recently, they have not heard of any agreement reached between Beirong and Dayong.

Seeing that Lin Yuan was puzzled, Xia Zheng stuffed another piece of hot fried chicken into his mouth, and smiled: "Don't look at the rudeness of the Beirong people, but the lamb they roast is really delicious, and it's sizzling. The layer of cumin sprinkled is also delicious, and it really complements the mutton."

Lin Yuan couldn't help but support her forehead. She knew that it wasn't any special connection between Xia Zheng and Bei Rong, it was simply that this guy was greedy and disguised himself as a Bei Rong to eat roast lamb.

"Roasted lamb and mutton skewers are indeed the most delicious and authentic made by Beirong people."

Lin Yuan said something casually while continuing to fry chicken nuggets, but she didn't expect such a simple sentence to win Xia Zheng's heart.

"It seems that my daughter-in-law also likes the roast lamb? Don't worry, isn't it cumin? I will definitely get it for you within two months!"

Seeing Xia Zheng's mouth full of fried chicken and oil stains all over his face, and swearing to pat her breast as a guarantee, Lin Yuan laughed for a while, thinking that this guy was just joking, and didn't take his words to heart.

Although these three simple but uncommon foods were packed in three food boxes by Lin Yuan, the full food boxes were heavy, even if those girls went there without food, there was enough food for them Several people filled their stomachs.

After preparing these, Lin Yuan thought for a while, and selected a few vegetables of different colors that could be eaten raw from the green vegetables sent by Liu Siliang as raw materials, and then made a juice with vinegar, sugar, salt, and oil. Made a vegetable salad.

Xia Zheng said that the fish in the small lake at the foot of Yiqing Mountain were very plump, and he must catch a few and roast them when he went there tomorrow.

Since there are grilled fish and fried chicken, this vegetable salad is definitely a very refreshing and essential vegetable.

After preparing some, Lin Yuan put some seasonings such as oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar in a small jar and brought them with her, and used them to season the fish when she went to Yi Qingshan to grill the fish the next day.

In addition to grilled fish, there will naturally be other game dishes, and it is definitely not wrong to bring these things.
