Datang: My apprentice is Li Chengqian

Chapter 63
All kinds of rumors and gossips spread outside.

However, Qin Xiedao, the instigator, hid in the mansion and personally instructed the cook to prepare the dinner.

As for making soap, Yinger, who has watched it once, is able to fully grasp the basic operation process.

In the martial arts arena, he directly set up a few large iron pots to smelt lard and make soap, so Qin Xiedao didn't need to worry about it at all.

"Ma'am, this is the dinner that Da Lang asked the kitchen to deliver..."

In the backyard, Luye stood by the table with a tangled face, not knowing whether to invite her to dinner or not.

"Da Lang asked the kitchen to deliver it?"

Mrs. Zhang was quite surprised. The eldest son in name hadn't shown any intention of getting close to him before.

"Yes, but..."

"But what?"

"Ma'am, these dishes are all made of pork, such as sweet and sour pork ribs, nine-turn large intestine, braised pork, and chicken with pork belly. It looks like it has a good color and flavor, but it is actually made of pork."

Apparently, even a servant like Luye felt that eating pork meat was an unworthy thing.

The emphasis on food these days is much more exaggerated than in later generations.

"Made from pork meat?"

There was a strange expression on Zhang's face.

It's not that she has never eaten pork, but she rarely eats it.

Because pork meat has a special smell of mutton, it is impossible to eat pork meat made by ordinary cooks.

Coupled with the influence of various rumors that pork is poisonous and dirty, Mrs. Zhang has not eaten pork for several years.

But thinking that this was Qin Xiedao's filial piety, she couldn't refuse it.

"Yes, today Da Lang had someone buy the meat of dozens of dolphins at one go, and most of the fat meat was turned into fat by Yinger's arrangement to the martial arts field.

However, there is still a lot of lean meat, which was made into cured meat for fear of spoiling.Now the Martial arts arena has been turned into a miasma. "

"These dishes look delicious."

After Luye said this, Mrs. Zhang probably understood the situation.

However, now is not the time to comment.

Since Qin Xiedao arranged for the cook to come over for dinner, she at least wanted to taste it first.

"Aniang, I want to eat that braised pork."

Before Mrs. Zhang was seated, Qin Huaidao, who was over two years old, opened his mouth to yell.

Obviously, when a child sees something that has both color and fragrance, he immediately likes it.

They don't care what's wrong with pork.

Mrs. Zhang, who has always loved this son very much, naturally did not refuse.

First, he pampered him with a piece of braised pork.

"lady……"

Seeing this scene, Green Leaf couldn't help but want to remind something again.

However, this time, Mrs. Zhang didn't wait for her to finish, and said, "Green leaf, Da Lang asked the kitchen to cook so many dishes, we can't finish them, you should sit down and eat together."

The rules of the Qin family are not so strict, and the Zhang family is the daughter of a military general, so they don't pay much attention to etiquette.

In addition, Luye is his personal maid, so he would occasionally let her eat with him.

Hearing what my wife said, it's not good for Luye to dislike the food in front of her.

You can't eat the food that your wife eats, but you despise it there, right?

Her EQ is not so low yet.

"Mother, it's delicious, I want more!"

Qin Huaidao, who is more than two years old, is already able to express himself more accurately.

Children are the most honest. The braised pork just now tasted better than anything he had eaten before. No wonder he immediately expressed that he wanted to eat it.

However, Qin Huaidao's performance aroused Zhang's curiosity.

She couldn't help but put a piece of braised pork in her mouth, and chewed it lightly.

At first, I was a little nervous and tried to chew, but I quickly speeded up, and then quickly took another piece into my mouth.

"Mother, I want to eat too."

Seeing that his aunt actually patronized him to eat, but ignored him, Qin Huaidao was a little unhappy.

After realizing what he was doing just now, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but blushed, and quickly grabbed a piece for her son.

"Luye, is this really pork meat? Why is it so delicious? It's completely different from what I've eaten before?"

Hearing what Zhang said, Luye was also confused.

So she didn't answer Mrs. Zhang's question right away, instead she took a piece of braised pork and tasted it.

Once I tasted it, I immediately felt extraordinary.

Dining in this era is basically either stewed, boiled, or steamed, and there are very few tricks.

The braised pork in front of them, where have they eaten it before?

Haven't even heard of it.

"Ma'am, these dishes are all made of pork meat, there is absolutely no fraud. But I don't know why they are so delicious."

Luye swallowed a piece of braised pork, and then quickly answered Zhang's question.

Immediately afterwards, she tried a bite of sweet and sour pork ribs, nine-turn large intestine...

Can't stop after that!

"These dishes are really delicious, the best I have ever eaten in my life."

Luye couldn't help but stretched, touched her stretched belly, and gave an honest evaluation.

As for the dislike of pork meat just now, and the incomprehension of Qin Xiedao, all of them disappeared.

If the dishes made of pork meat are so delicious, she would be willing to let her eat pork meat every day.

"It's really extraordinary! Not to mention the braised pork and sweet and sour pork ribs, the key is that the Jiuzhuan large intestine is so delicious. If this is said, no one will believe it."

Zhang's reaction was not much better than Luye's.

Obviously, she was also fed up.

In front of this kind of food, few people can resist not eating more.

"Da Lang is really full of mysteries and can always bring surprises to people. I think once the recipes of these dishes are spread, the price of pork meat in Chang'an City will probably increase."

"The secret recipe of this dish must not be passed on without the permission of Da Lang. Lu Ye, you go to the kitchen to order and emphasize this rule."

These days, the secret recipe of dishes can be regarded as a secret, even the treasure of some restaurants.

So Zhang's reaction is actually very normal.

Anyone who knows the secret recipe of these dishes will not tell others easily.

"Madam, I'll arrange it right away! But the general's friends often come over in the mansion, and these dishes will probably spread around soon."

"That's another matter! It's a favor to teach others how to make these dishes."

As the head of the Qin family, Mrs. Zhang naturally took care of many things.
