Chapter 38

Pei Fei and Lin Yan walked back on the snow.

With Shi'er in his stomach, Pei Fei's mood improved a lot, so much so that he was in the mood to care about his friend's "love affair".

Thinking of the "sauce in vinegar", "boiled dried shreds", "golden cabbage" among the meat dishes such as roasted pheasant, agate meat, and roasted mutton, as well as Lin Yan's eyebrows stretched and the corners of his mouth slightly raised when he ate it. Appearing, Pei Fei squinted and tilted his head to look at him: "An Ran, I have a doubt..."

"Then Mrs. Shen arranges drinks and dishes at will, and the merchants seek profits. Normally, most of them are expensive goods. Why are there so many light side dishes?"

"The meat and vegetables match, and the complex and the simple complement each other. This is the way to reconcile food. Since the owner of Shen Ji is running a wine shop, why can't it make sense?" Thinking of the smiling face of the lady Shen when collecting money, Lin Yan said lightly, " Moreover, even small dishes are sold at the price of large dishes.”

Pei Fei laughed "pochi", "That's what you are willing to give, not what others want."

Lin Yan also slightly raised the corner of his mouth.

But Pei Fei is not so easy to fool past people, "Those dishes seem to suit your taste..."

Lin Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at him sideways, "...Aren't those roasted pheasants to your liking too?"

Pei Fei smiled, with a look of "Oh, you can be stubborn", but in the end it involved the little lady, it's not easy to ask too blatantly, so he let him go.

The more Pei Fei thought about it, the more she felt that Lin Yan was the perfect match for this little lady Shen, a gourd with a saw-mouthed gourd and an articulateif he didn't like to talk, wouldn't he be suffocated? If they are all articulate, they will inevitably have to quarrel; their appearance is also very suitable, An Ran is graceful and graceful, and the little lady Shen is also charming and beautiful; in terms of knowledge, although An Ran is a scholar and a first-time handsome man, that little lady Shen is not an ignorant woman. Didn't you use the Three Kingdoms Pang Tong to satirize people last time? This time, I talked about the famous ministers and state affairs of this dynasty.

Those who are missing, family ears! Although Lady Shen was from the Shen family in Luoxia, it was a pity that her family was down, but An Ran was a high-ranking official in a red robe...

Pei Fei shook his head, what a pity.

Pei Fei didn't know that Shen Shaoguang was the palace maid released this spring and the old things in her family, otherwise the head would be shaken more violently.

How could Lin Yan not be able to hear what Pei Fei was saying, when he was about to say something with a sullen face, but then he gave up, he has such a temperament, but he still has some sense of restraint, so as not to end up indecent.

The dishes arranged by the restaurant suit her own taste. Lin Yan doesn't think that there is anything. She has been there a few times, and the little lady Shen just remembered her own taste... However, she is so clever, it is no wonder that she can live in this market. It is so fresh and vibrant, just like the greenery in the mountains and plains in the spring - and it really lives up to the small characters of "A Li".

Asuna - don't know what the official name is. The public inspection documents only contain family, place of origin, age, appearance characteristics, in a certain year and a certain month because the father Shen Qian was convicted and not in the court, and in a certain year and a certain month to leave the palace as Qimin, etc., the female public inspection practice does not have a name .

Lin Yan suddenly raised his head and squinted at the white-covered street. What was he thinking about? Really drunk.

Shen Shaoguang didn't know what kind of soul torture he caused Lin and Pei, and was thinking about new dishes.

In the cold winter and twelfth lunar month, there are few vegetables. Every day, Chinese cabbage, radish, tofu, bean sprouts, and nothing else. It is good that there is no shortage of pork, chicken, mutton, and fish. With a few pickles and preserved vegetables, you can make do with some. Sample numbers. It snowed in the past few days, the fish broke, and immediately felt that would not join hands. The steamed fish head, fish balls, vinegar fish, tiled fish, fish pot, etc., were all gone...

In such a cold day, even if the snow melted, it was not easy to get fish. Shen Shaoguang decided to remove the fish dishes first, and add some other dishes. By the way, according to the sales in the store, some other dishes were replaced and updated.

This is something that needs to be pondered carefully, and sometimes have to ask Yu San, and even ask for the opinions of the two indigenous foodies, A Yuan and A Chang.

A Yuan and A Chang love new dishes in the store because that means - try them.

Seeing how excited the two of them looked, Shen Shaoguang reflected, did I usually feed them? Or do these two have a deep love for food? Shen Shaoguang was willing to believe it was the latter.

The boiled dried silk for Lin Shaoyin is a new dish recently. Dried tofu is cooked in chicken soup. In order to increase the umami taste, dried shrimps are placed in the cooking, and the dried shrimps are placed in a small white cloth pocket. When they are out of the pot, they are not used. As long as the white dried shreds are served, they are served on top of the dish. A pinch of minced bacon and a little diced green pickled cucumber, just to adjust the color.

There is no ham, kaiyang, etc., and the method is not authentic Huaiyang cuisine. It is a "make-up dish" that has no choice but to travel through time and space, but the taste is not bad, and the picky tongue like Lin Shaoyin also eats a lot.

It is a test of skill to make cabbage and tofu delicious. This is another era of lack of things and things. Shen Shaoguang still likes all kinds of naked and sturdy meat dishes.

For example - steamed meat with powder, stewed meat with vinegar, lychee meat, smoked and simmered meat, jar chicken, fried chicken, smoked chicken, and white-cut chicken. As long as you master the know-how, you can play it at will, and the taste will not be bad.

A Yuan came back from the outside and saw the steamed pork that had just come out of the pot. She quickly reached out and took a small noodle cake, stuffed a large piece of steamed pork in it, blew it, and bit into half of it in one bite. Nodding, "Hmm! Hmm!"

"Don't patronize the food, go and tell the girl from the Chu family?" The girl from the Chu family was an uninvited guest from Xuetian, who now lives in Guangming Nunnery, and her maid is called A Jin.

"Uh-huh!"

Shen Shaoguang laughed: "Eat, eat."

In other words, which cook doesn't like to see diners like A Yuan? If you are all like Lin Shaoyin, even when he eats, his emotions and anger are invisible. If he likes it or not, he can only analyze and observe by himself. He doesn't even have any feedback. How boring is this cook? Hey, I really sympathize with the person who cooks for Lin Shaoyin.

Before A Yuan's "additional meal" was finished, the master and servant of the Chu family arrived.

Shen Shaoguang asked them to go to the back house to talk.

Shen Shaoguang personally poured tea for the Chu girl, and the girl stood up to take it and thanked him again.

Although anxious, the Chu lady waited for Shen Shaoguang to sit down and take a sip of tea before asking, "Does the little lady have news about Huan Lang?"

"This afternoon there was a guest surnamed Huan, Xing Qi, tall, fair-faced, and well-mannered. I'm afraid I made a mistake, so I didn't ask the guest, I told the little lady first."

The Chu girl was a little excited: "It's him."

The maid A Jin also hurriedly asked: "Does the little lady know how to find this Huan Lang?"

Shen Shaoguang nodded: "Yes, he knows a regular customer in our store. The customer is very enthusiastic, you can ask him. He lives in the house on the far south of the back street by the square wall." Liu Feng's address was still what the official matchmaker said at the time. It was not far from the Zhangjia Niantou store, and A Yuan met him when he went to buy Niantou.

The Chu girl solemnly thanked Shen Shaoguang.

Shen Shaoguang understands the truth of friendship, but it seems that Huan Qilang is a little too shrewd and not very reliable, so he is a little bit cocky, thinks about it, and then said: "Look at the girl's hairpin in small script. The writing is really good, but my words are too crude, and I want to ask the girl to give some pointers."

Just talking about Huan Qilang, but suddenly turned to calligraphy, this little lady Shen is not a trivial matter, the Chu lady knew that there must be a reason, and immediately smiled: "I don't dare to give advice, please The lady wrote it, let's learn together."

Shen Shaoguang grinded it, spread out the paper, wrote a few poems of Bai Juyi in regular script, and tapped the last "Silver Bottle at the Bottom of the Well" with his finger twice, "This is a poem by a Bai Shangshu, which is straightforward and straightforward. Che, I like it a lot."

"...I feel that the pine and cypresses have turned into my heart, and I secretly cooperate with the two chariots to chase the king...Pin is a wife and a concubine.

The girl's expression changed, and she smiled for a while: "Bai Shangshu's poems are good, so are the words of the little lady." Then she stood up and solemnly bowed to Shen Shaoguang, "Thank you little lady for reminding me."

Shen Shaoguang held it, and the two took their seats again. Only the maid A Jin was still stunned.

"Little lady doesn't know, my family is in the business, and the most important thing is fairness in business. We made a promise to each other that day, and we wrote a lot of letters. If he - let me down, I will shake it out. Of course, I won't get better. His reputation is also a hindrance. This is the most important discipline under the emperor's feet. He has to take a scientific examination and he has to be awarded an official in the examination, so he will not take this risk."

Shen Shaoguang nodded, wanting to tell her that this city of Chang'an is not as rigorous as she thought, but she has come this far, and she is determined and thoughtful... However, it is better than completely "even if you are ruthlessly abandoned, you can't be ashamed." " Silly Bai Tianqiang.

If that's the case, let's rush to the sea of ​​love.

The author has something to say: Qingtianqinghai is a word in the Red House, and even the phrase "Bai Shangshu's poems are good, so are the words of a little lady." They also learned from Lin Daiyu's words.
