happy event

Chapter 41 Greet silly friends!

After hearing this, both of them smiled. After all, they knew how much delicious food was bought in that basket.So the two saluted and thanked them again and then ran to report the good news to the other handymen.

Dong Rong changed into half-worn coarse cloth clothes, dipped in clean water and licked the broken hair on her forehead, then put on a big apron and began to cut, wash and prepare materials.Silly Zhu chopped a lot of firewood, went to the mountain spring to fetch two buckets of water, and finally sat at the door of the kitchen, ready to help out.

The weather was already hot, and there was no smoke vent in the kitchen, but within an hour, Dong Rong was sweating profusely. Sha Zhu pulled up his sleeve to wipe it for her, but he didn't know where the sleeve was stained with dust. Make a big face of his little daughter-in-law.

Dong Rong slapped him so annoyed that he couldn't stop laughing.After Dong Rong fetched water and washed her face, she put the braised pork that needed the most heat into the pot. After boiling for a quarter of an hour, she handed it to Sha Zhu to add firewood and slowly simmered it over a low heat.She spread out dried tofu slices cut into two-inch squares on the cutting board, and then put all kinds of vegetables and fried meat sauce that had been blanched in water neatly, rolled them into rolls, cut them obliquely, and put them vertically into the disc Arrange them in a fan shape, and finally find a blue and transparent radish and carve it into the shape of a singing bird. A plate of beautiful and refreshing peacocks is ready.

Dong Rong moved the plate from side to side, and felt satisfied, then cut off the skin of the deep-fried tofu, hollowed out the inner core, then carefully filled in the pre-cut black fungus, green pepper, and chopped eggs, and finally placed three pieces horizontally and vertically. Put it into a square plate, pour the prepared soup and steam it in the drawer.

After being so busy, the braised pork was already cooked to perfection, so she quickly took it out and put it into a large clay pot and covered it tightly.Then brush the pot and pour half of the vegetable oil. The three-inch long small yellow croaker has been marinated for half an hour beforehand. They all put on the extremely beautiful "golden armor"...

At some point, the strong smell of meat sneaked out from the door of the kitchen, and was carried far away by the mountain wind, causing all the handymen working down the mountain to raise their heads and sniff their noses.One of the young men couldn't bear his greed, so he asked Zhao Qingshan in a low voice, "Brother Qingshan, what kind of meat dish will our host have for lunch? Is there a piece of fatty meat? The last time I ate meat was during the Chinese New Year, I will soon remember." I can't afford the meaty taste."

The rest of the people also echoed, "Yes, I heard that the ice bowl sellers in the city are doing well now, and there is often meat on the dinner table, which is rewarded by the boss. Isn't our boss also in charge of that? Is it an ice business, maybe it can satisfy everyone's hunger."

Zhao Qingshan put down the hoe in his hand, coughed twice and then said, "Everyone work hard, the boss will not treat everyone badly."

Everyone was a little disappointed, and continued to be busy unhappily.Seeing this, Zhao Qingshan added slowly, "However, my boss ordered me to buy more than ten catties of pork belly in the morning. Fresh meat can't be kept in this season!"

The young man who spoke before blinked his eyes, and then suddenly cheered, "Haha, I really have a big piece of meat for lunch!"

Everyone was also smiling, and they all clicked their mouths, sucking and slobbering non-stop.Seeing this, Zhao Qingshan knew that everyone was not in the mood to do work anymore, so he waved his hands and said, "It's noon, everyone, let's rest, if you don't have work to do, just hurry up in the afternoon."

After hearing these words, everyone put away their equipment and began to climb up the mountain like a swarm, as if they would be able to eat big slices of meat earlier if they were closer to the stove.

Zhao Qingshan thought that his identity was unusual, and he followed behind slowly with a hoe on his shoulders. He didn't want to see Doctor Feng who lived in the east of the village walking out of the path among the fruit forests with a little medicine boy as soon as he reached the mountainside.He hurried forward to salute, and said with a smile, "Doctor Feng, did you go up the mountain to collect medicine?"

Doctor Feng smiled kindly, nodded and said, "Yes, there are not many medicinal materials at home, so I went out for a walk. It happened that Zhuzi asked me to buy a drink yesterday, so I came by the way."

Zhao Qingshan was stunned for a moment, and then he understood why the owner was so busy preparing banquets early in the morning, it turned out that it was Sha Zhu who wanted to entertain Old Doctor Feng.In this way, not only did the boss not treat Sha Zhu with such negligence as everyone guessed when they were gossiping, on the contrary, they valued him very much. Otherwise, they would not spend so much money just because of his jokes.Fortunately, no matter who he was, he never dared to neglect Shazhu, otherwise he would lose his job if his boss found out.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly bowed to ask Dr. Feng's master and servant to go up the mountain. He looked very respectful, and even took the small medicine basket on Qingfeng's shoulder.

Silly Zhu reckoned that it was almost time, and he was already standing at the end of the mountain road waiting.Sure enough, he soon saw Zhao Qingshan coming up with Mr. Feng, he hurriedly strode forward to meet him and laughed, "Old man Feng, if you don't come again, I will eat up all the braised pork."

"I could smell the smell of meat since I was in Nanshan, so I knew you had a big appetite, so I hurried over to grab a bowl." Doctor Feng also laughed, and finally sat down with Shazhu under the pergola covered with vines to rest.

Dong Rong also took off her apron when she heard the movement, adjusted her clothes a little, and came out with tea to entertain guests.

Old Doctor Feng heard a lot of interesting stories about Dong Rong from the teenagers in Group A, and guessed in his heart how beautiful and lovely this woman was.Seeing it with his own eyes now, he couldn't help but stroked his beard and nodded repeatedly.

Although he doesn't have the appearance of a country or a city, but his face is like a full moon, his seal is wide and flat, his nose is straight and his lips are thick, which is quite the appearance of Wangfu Wangzi.In particular, a pair of eyes are extremely clear and energetic, which means that this woman is decisive in dealing with things and has a plan in mind.If Shazhu is really a farmer's son, with this woman as his wife, his life will be smooth and prosperous.But he will inherit that position in the future, and when the time comes, when this woman meets that person, I don't know what will happen...

The old man was thinking about things secretly, and he didn't speak for a long time, which made Dong Rong think that there was something wrong with his clothes.She lowered her head and glanced at her dress, shoes and socks indiscriminately, seeing that there was nothing wrong, she stepped forward to put down the teapot, smiled as a junior, and said softly, "Doctor Feng is well, I usually listen to Zhuzi Speaking of your care for him, it is really an honor for our young husband and wife to have Dr. Feng as a guest today. The little girl has cured some rough food, and I hope Dr. Feng will not be disgusted with it."

Mr. Feng came back to his senses, coughed in embarrassment, and quickly responded, "Sister Rong, don't be polite, just call the old man my uncle. Zhuzi also helps me gather medicine on weekdays, and I should thank him. I haven't seen him walking around the village these days, and I, an old man, feel bored, so I drove you to the mountain to beg for a drink, which will make you tired."

Mr. Feng had a kind expression on his face, and his clothes were different from ordinary peasants' clean and tidy clothes. He spoke in a slow and soft voice, which was very comfortable to hear.Dong Rong fell in love with such an elder almost immediately, so she yelled "Uncle Feng" very simply, poured good tea for him with her own hands, and then patted the pillar where she was eating snacks to ask him to accompany the guests, and finally entered The kitchen continued to be busy.

Mr. Feng took a sip of tea with a smile, and enjoyed the scenery for a long while, before turning to the disciple with a slightly disturbed expression, he smiled and said, "God is merciful, if you lose the east corner, you must reap the mulberry elm. Mrs. Cao will buy you a little daughter-in-law for the sake of face." , did not expect to be a rare good woman, you are blessed!"

Murong Huaide has been hanging on his mind for a long while, he doesn't want to get to the bottom of why he cares so much about her husband's opinion of Dong Rong, and he instinctively hopes that she can get his approval.Hearing these words at this time, he couldn't help but smile all over his face, and replied in a warm voice, "Thank you, sir."

Mr. Feng remembered that when the two first met, his little disciple was still a child of seven or eight years old. It seemed that in a blink of an eye, the child turned into a high-spirited man of eight feet. He got married and started a business, but he was getting old.Time is really magical and ruthless!
Murong Huaide saw that the old man's face was a bit gloomy, and thought that he remembered the old things with that person, so he hurriedly found some interesting stories to tell to relieve his boredom.The old man was also sympathetic, he was very appreciative and laughed non-stop.

Soon, Dong Rong picked up the tea set and brought out the carefully prepared dishes.When Mr. Feng was young, he traveled all over the world and traveled to many places, and he considered himself a well-informed person.He can't boast that he has tasted the world's delicacies, but he is definitely not ignorant.

But at this moment, the dishes served by the apprentice and daughter-in-law are very novel and special in terms of shape, color and aroma.The old man didn't see it either, he raised a piece of braised pork with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth, the piece of meat almost melted in his mouth, without chewing half time, the fat with rich aroma slid directly into his throat.The old man couldn't help eating three yuan in a row, so he praised it loudly.

Dong Rong was also a little proud. Speaking of which, the Great Qi Kingdom was just a fork in time and space after the Three Kingdoms, and the level of cooking dishes was still at the stage of just knowing how to fry, which was simply inferior to the various methods in the previous life. One hundred and eight thousand miles.

Although she was not born as a gourmet, she had worked as a handyman in the back kitchen of a restaurant for two years, and she had become a so-so chef by stealing and learning.If Shazhu wanted to entertain the emperor, she might be a little timid, but if she invited a country doctor to drink, she thought she could do it perfectly.

"Uncle Feng, you'd better eat less greasy meat when you're getting old. Come on, try this peacock with open tail and colorful tofu box, both of which are good dishes to cool off the heat. And this dry fried yellow croaker, next Wine is the best." Dong Rong took a pair of clean chopsticks, and said with a smile on her face as she prepared vegetables for Mr. Feng.

The old man never refuses anyone who comes, and he must praise every dish he tastes. At the end, he called out to the little drug boy who was swallowing his saliva, "Qingfeng, quickly bring me the wine jar in the medicine basket! How can there be no food after the delicious food?" Good wine?"

Dong Rong originally wanted to say that she had prepared corn wine, but she quickly swallowed the words when she looked up at the white-painted blue-and-white wine jar in Qingfeng's hand.The wine jar is so exquisite, the wine in it must be even more rare. Her inferior wine, which is only worth [-] ren, should be reserved for the handymen.

Silly Zhu took the jug, smiled and filled a glass for Mr. Feng, and poured a full bowl when it was his turn, making Mr. Feng's beard tremble wildly.Dong Rong sniggered to herself, leaving Shazhu to accompany the guests in peace of mind, and then retreated to the kitchen to bring out a stack of large pottery bowls and a large pot of braised pork.

Zhao Qingshan and others were afraid of delaying the host's hospitality, so they have been hiding in the shadow of a tree behind the house to enjoy the shade.Suddenly they heard Dong Rong's call, so each of them came out with a full face.

Dong Rong stuffed a large bowl of braised pork into Zhao Qingshan's hands first, and said with a smile, "It's been hard work for you these few days, and it just so happens that today is a treat for guests, and there are a lot of dishes prepared, so let's try something new along the way."

Zhao Qingshan really didn't expect the owner to be so generous, how could such a big bowl of meat weigh half a catty.He stared at the big piece of meat in the bowl, his tongue couldn't straighten, and reluctantly said, "Master, everyone can eat a bowl of vegetarian dishes, this meat... this meat is too much."

Dong Rong's subordinates quickly continued to fill the bowls and divide the meat, and said with a nonchalant smile, "Brother Zhao, don't be too polite, as long as everyone works hard, the orchard will earn money in the future, maybe they will divide the meat every day. Hurry up Take it home, and you can still catch up with the family for lunch."
