Dressed as a villain's mother

Chapter 156 Confucian Cuisine

While talking, Eleven heard the sound of firecrackers and said, "Here we come, I'll open the door."

"Row."

Jiang Yu was a little nervous seeing this scene for the first time.

Yan Lingming saw that there was still a kitchen cloth around her body, and couldn't bear to look directly at her, "Can you pay attention to her appearance?"

"Is there something on my face?" Jiang Yu didn't understand, so she touched her face. Did she wash her face?

Tang Jingxuan said innocently: "There is nothing, it is very beautiful."

Yan Lingming & Bai Xun: "..."

"Just your sweet mouth."

He really praised her all the time, Jiang Yu's old face was blushing, and those who didn't know thought she taught her to be like this.

By the way, who taught these words?

While talking, the door of the Tang Mansion opened, and two officials wearing red silk came in. They each held a mahogany tray in their hands, and looked at them with smiles.

"Excuse me, who is Mrs. Tang?" The chubby and lucky official walking in front asked with a smile.

"I am." Jiang Yu stood up from the crowd.

The official said: "Congratulations to Mrs. Tang, your son won the fourth place in the spring test. We are here to congratulate you and present a card."

"Excuse me, Jingxuan, thank you two officials."

It's actually the fourth...

"Thank you both, for your hard work."

After Tang Jingxuan finished speaking, Xiaoya promptly delivered two small money bags with small silver ingots inside.

The two official servants who received the red envelopes smiled more sincerely, and said with a basket of good words: "Your nobleman has achieved such achievements at a young age, and he will definitely be able to do great things in the future."

"Thanks to the auspicious words."

After accepting the things, Jiang Yu was stunned when he heard the official asked when the banquet would be held, is there still a banquet?
Seeing that Jiang Yu didn't understand, the official said, "For such a happy event in the family, most of the people around will be entertained, and relatives and friends will also be invited."

"Why don't you please?"

"Then at least treat the master to a meal." The official was thinking, wouldn't even the master not want to invite him?

Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's for sure, and please don't tell others about Jing Xuan's age, I'm afraid that he will be too proud of his young age and be dazzled by the achievements in front of him."

It turned out to be like this...

The officer nodded understandingly, "Okay, this is no problem."

"It's troublesome."

After seeing off the official messenger who announced the good news, Jiang Yu looked at Er Shi again, his eyes were full of sympathy, "Why did you get fourth in the exam?"

Yan Lingming thought she was dissatisfied with this result, so he said, "Some of them won't pass the exam even in their [-]s and [-]s, so don't push your children too hard."

"No, I think this ranking is too high. If it is a crane, it will not be so conspicuous. You must know that people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. This is not entirely a good thing. When he grows up, others will come Compare. It’s okay if you achieve something, after being ordinary, those people’s mouths can’t tell how stinky they are, and I feel very pitiful to live in the eyes of others.”

"Mother, I'll come later in the exam next time." Tang Jingxuan thought that the fourth place was already far behind, and he didn't dare to enter the top three. Unexpectedly, his mother still thought it was too far ahead.

Li Minglan nodded in agreement, that's the reason.

In the past, Tang Yunze was said to be a talented person in the future, and his family experienced great changes. As a mother, Li Minglan saw her son becoming more and more silent, and she felt uncomfortable.If he was more ordinary, there would not be so many people making sarcastic remarks after something happened, because too many people knew about him.

Jiang Yu never said outside that Tang Jingxuan was admitted to Tongsheng, he just showed off his paintings to others, he was well-behaved and sensible, and he could cook.It is better to live a happy life than to do well in the exam.

Bai Xun is sour again, he has never been treated like this before, and no one told him that as long as you are happy, it is fine.

Yan Lingming didn't quite agree with Jiang Yu's attempt to hide Tang Jingxuan's brilliance, but she was Tang Jingxuan's mother after all, and she was speaking as a mother, so she didn't refute.

It's better not to be utilitarian. Growing up in such a family, you will be even better in the future.

"Let's not talk about this. I will make a piece of tofu and longevity duck soup for Xuanxuan at noon today to celebrate. Eleventh, go and invite Xuanxuan's master over."

Jiang Yu hasn't made Yipin tofu for a long time. This is a Confucian dish, and it's the most suitable time to eat it.

"Yes." Eleven drove out quickly in a carriage to find someone, and it took more than an hour to go back and forth.

"Do you know how to make Shouzi Duck Soup?" Yan Lingming's eyes lit up. He only ate this dish once at the palace banquet, and it tasted very good. It's a pity that he didn't make a reservation for that building because he had to wait in line for two years. up.

"Yes, it's just that I'm not very familiar with it, so don't take offense." Jiang Yu said modestly.

In modern times, relying on her own good ingredients, Jiang Yu went to "seduce" chefs to teach her how to cook, and didn't ask for a teacher. Those chefs were so angry that their teeth were itchy. It can be seen that Jiang Yu has good ingredients and talent. They I can only admit it.

Tang Jingxuan looked at Jiang Yu adoringly, "Mother is so powerful, she can do anything."

"Uh... Maybe you won't, don't give me a high hat, go and help me wash the vegetables, and I will have a big feast at noon."

"Okay."

Yan Lingming, who was about to say that a gentleman stays away from the kitchen: "..."

"I'm going to help too." Bai Xun was very curious about how Jiang Yu would cook duck soup with longevity characters. This dish was not well cooked, but it was useless. If it was that simple, there wouldn't be so many people ordering it in Menghuilou seat.

But one dish of Shouzi Duck Soup costs 500 taels of silver, and it is very expensive to cook once every ten days. Most people can’t afford it, and high-ranking officials and nobles only buy it once if they try something new or someone in the family has passed the exam.

But Ningcheng is at the foot of the emperor, and the most indispensable are these rich people, so it is generally not possible to make a reservation, and it is also because the time is too long.

Confucian cuisine is generally used for receiving distinguished guests, appointments, birthdays, family days, weddings, funerals, and special preparations, and there are different specifications.

Jiang Yu can't make large-scale ones by herself, so she simply makes a few of her favorite dishes, such as Yipin tofu, duck soup with longevity characters, white grouse, roasted cabbage with chestnuts, three delicacies soup, fried chrysanthemum shrimp buns, and seaweed soup. One, the pastry is ready.

Can she say thankfully the kitchen has been remodeled?Otherwise, I really can't cook so many dishes.

Most of the longevity duck soup is used to celebrate birthdays, but Jiang Yu likes to eat it, so he also added it.

Confucian cuisine is very difficult to control the heat, seasoning and shape, which is also a bit troublesome for Jiang Yu, so be careful, otherwise it will look different.

Hey, it's a pity that Tang Yunze is not here, otherwise I would be able to taste delicious food...

Chasing Tang Yunze out of his mind, Jiang Yu carefully prepared the ingredients, while Tang Jingxuan, Bai Xun, and Xiaoya were watching to see if they could help.

Tang Yunze, who was far away on the border of Yuzhou, was surrounded by a group of bandits. Looking at the group of people, the people behind him trembled, almost crying.
