Shangshi female official

In the evening, they cook Dongpo pork and sweet and sour carp in their dining room. Although not every master and nobleman makes a whole serving, the emperors, concubines, and princes and daughters also make more than 40 servings.

Dongpo meat can also be handed over to ordinary court ladies, and Mo Xi can make it himself when seasoning. Sweet and sour carp is a more troublesome dish.

Sweet and sour carp sounds simple. Carp is made into sweet and sour mouth, but there are details that cannot be missed everywhere.

The first is the fish. Except for the internal organs of the whole carp, the two sides of the fish need to be cut straight, and the knife should be cut diagonally until the fish meat on both sides of the tail can be lifted out, and the hollow fish maw can be seen through.

When frying, the whole fish should be slightly folded, so that when it comes out of the pan, it will naturally look like a carp wagging its tail.

The second is the paste. The paste made by sweet and sour carp is not simply mixed with flour and water. The flour and starch must be adjusted well. If the fish meat is thin, the paste cannot be hung, and it cannot be thickened. If the paste is too thick, it will not taste good.

The last is the gorgon juice, which pays attention to the bright oil and bright gorgon, but it must be thin.A thin layer is like brushing on the fried fish, so that the fried fish cannot collapse, and it has a umami taste.

The palace banquet in the evening was held in Kunning Palace, and Mo Xi had to be extremely careful, and she had to pass through her mouth first before pouring everything into the pot, and she didn't worry about anyone pouring the juice at the end, she poured it all by herself.

A carp stood on the plate with its tail wagging, with a red cherry in its mouth, the fish meat was layered, and the gravy was hanging on the fish meat.

There was one that was poorly made, and several people in the dining room shared it. The fish fell off as soon as it was pulled. .

More than 40 dishes of fish and Dongpo meat were carried to the Kunning Palace by the eunuch carrying food. As soon as she left, Moxi felt dizzy and seemed about to collapse. Juanzi and Wang Yifu hurriedly supported her to sit down.

Mo Xi beat her leg, let out a breath, and sighed: "Finally I'm done."

Wang Yifu pinched her arm, loosened her muscles and said, "Sister Mo Xi, you have worked hard."

"A few more palace banquets will really kill me."

"Otherwise, sister Moxi will rest first tomorrow?"

Mo Xi immediately refused: "No, I haven't finished the work in the kitchen, so there is no time to rest."

"What about the kitchen?" Juanzi asked suspiciously, "What else?"

Both Mo Xi and Wang Yifu kept silent, they just avoided her eyes and pinched their legs and squeezed their shoulders.

"What's the matter, even I can't tell?"

"I'll tell you when I get back."

Moxi and Juanzi have been in trouble together for many years, and they don't really want to hide it. There are so many people in the meal room, so it's not convenient to explain everything clearly at this time.

But none of them expected that the culprit would take the initiative to admit his mistake.

After the kitchen was cleaned up, Juanzi specially moved a stool by the door, and put it in the dining room where they were at the bottom floor, where Mo Xichang loved to stay.

Mo Xi was sitting there smoking a cigarette while looking at the stars, and when they packed up and left one by one and Juanzi was locked, she would go together again.

Only the three of them and Xu'er were left at the meal, and Xu'er actually walked up to Mo Xi, knelt down on the ground, and said calmly, "Sister Mo Xi, I poured the acid water. If you beat me, you will be punished. You can figure it out."

Mo Xi was dumbfounded, completely confused, she was tough on the outside and soft on the inside, she couldn't yell at people who confessed their mistakes, and she couldn't bear to see people bowing down and acting like a petty person.

But Wang Yifu couldn't, she pressed Mo Xi's hand that wanted to help Xu'er, and said with a smile: "Sister Mo Xi is naturally happy if you can take the initiative to admit your mistake. To be clear, who instigated you?"

"Since I've come to admit my mistake, I can't say who instigated me."

"That's why someone tricked you."

Xu'er choked, and fell into Wang Yifu's trick, and Wang Yifu said again: "I advise you to tell the truth, if you don't tell me, it will be even more embarrassing when we find out."

Xu'er raised her eyes and lowered them again. The sky was dark, and most of the lights in the kitchen were turned off. The faint yellow light suppressed her, "When Aunt Ba came, I knew I couldn't hide it. But I still It cannot be said that she is kind to me after all."

"I understand that if you are coercing you, you will confess if you confess. If you are kind to you, if you say so, it will be revenge."

Mo Xi spoke for Xu'er, and Wang Yifu lost half of her temper when she asked the question. She thought that Mo Xi would let her go, and the matter would be left alone. Unexpectedly, Ruan Sishan came to the door, Said: "There are not many people who are kind to you, and those who are kind to you and have trouble with Chen Shangshi, you can count them with your fingers."

"Thousands of mistakes are all my fault. Sister Moxi, even if I tell who asked me to do it, she can pick it up without any evidence. You can't do anything with her, and punish me. , if I spare her, it is my repayment."

Mo Xi knocked the copper pot with the tobacco rod on the steps, and the blackened shreds of tobacco inside shook out, "I won't chase you away anymore, you can leave on your own, whether you leave the palace or go to another dining room, We're never going to work together again."

Xu'er didn't expect that Mo Xi's personality, which is usually turbulent, would be tolerant in the quiet night. It's not because of relatives, but she can let her go without relatives or fate. Xu'er couldn't help but shed tears and kowtowed: " Thank you, Sister Mo Xi."

Xu'er got up, wiped away her tears, and left.

Only then did Mo Xi raise her eyes to look at her old opponent who was not in the same boat, and asked, "Why are you here again?"

Ruan Sishan picked up the jar of wine in his hand and said, "Mo Xi, let's have a drink."

Moxi opened her mouth, she was about to refuse, but she swallowed the words of refusal, while she hesitated, Juanzi had already set up the low stool and small table.

Although the red walls in the palace are taller than people, you can still see the starry sky when you look up. In June, the stars move very slowly.

Only this day, no matter where you are, you don't pick people, and you don't change the sky because of power and money.

A jar of wine was placed on the table, except for Wang Yifu, the three of them had a few drinks, Juanzi left the opportunity for the two of them to talk, but the two of them didn't say a word, just looked up at the shining galaxy.

"I didn't do that?"

After a long time, Ruan Sishan only heard Ruan Sishan say this sentence, and Mo Xi asked, "What's the matter?"

"Ninth Prince, I didn't tamper with his nanny's diet."

Mo Xi sneered, and said: "Master Si Shan, if you didn't work with Qiu Shangshi, how did you manage to be the Secretary of Food at such a young age?"

"This is where people's horror lies. You don't need to do it anymore. As long as people think you have done it, you can't wash it off even if you jump into the Yellow River. You have a handle." After she finished speaking, she raised her head and drank A glass of spicy wine.
