Chapter 76
Ouyang Jinyu said lightly: "Don't think that everything will be cured after this. I took the medicine for two courses of [-] days, but it only cured the symptoms, not the root cause. If you want to recover, you have to spend at least a season of food supplements, less movement and rest. .”

Qi Haitao nodded, pointed at his children and grandchildren, and said: "This time I will rest, and they will take turns to watch me and not let me use force."

Qi Zhan stepped forward and asked a little excitedly: "Brother Ouyang, my name is Qi Zhan, a student of Chang'an Academy. I entered the school a year later than you. Do you recognize me?"

"I know you. You are smart and protect your weaknesses. You are good at fighting. If anyone dares to bully your friends, you will beat them up like pigs. Your parents won't even know you, and they won't be able to find out your reason."

Qi Zhan's eyes lit up.

Dongfang Xuanyi patted Qi Zhan on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I just like people who are smart, protect short, and have strong fists. I'm sure you are my friend!"

"I got compliments from my two elder brothers today, and I can eat a few more bowls of rice." Qi Zhan was overjoyed.

"I don't eat rice or noodles for lunch." Duke Ding said loudly, "It's lamb shabu-shabu. It's the first time I ate shabu-shabu in my life."

Dongfang Xuanyi and Ouyang Jinyu laughed and said: "No wonder you hurried back, it turns out that Jinhua made fresh food again."

"Zhan'er, if you come in different generations, you have to call Shi Ziye uncle. Shi Ziye allows you to call him elder brother, but you can't treat him as an equal." Qi Haitao whispered to Qi Zhan.

Qi Zhan nodded quickly, "Yes."

When everyone arrived at the dining room, the two Eight Immortals tables had been placed in the middle, and there was a red copper pot burning smokeless silk charcoal. The lamb bone soup in the pot was gurgling, and the room was filled with the aroma of meat.

Surrounding the red copper pot were ten blue and white porcelain plates filled with paper-thin slices of mutton, prepared sesame sauce, freshly fried chili oil, chive flowers, garlic, coriander powder and other seasonings, and two catties of fine wine.

"Yu Zixi has met Uncle Qi, two older brothers, and four nephews." Yu Zixi was wearing a nearly new rose red dress, combed with a pair of maidservants, wore short pearl hairpins in her hair, and wore With a slight smile, he walked in with Ma Qi from the kitchen, greeted the guests, and said to Ding: "Grandma, sister, me, and brother Feng ate in the small dining room."

"I'll go over too, and I happen to have a table with you." Ding said with a smile to everyone, "You can talk, eat and drink as well as relax after I'm gone."

Qi Haitao snorted and asked, "Why does the little girl call my grandson a nephew?"

Yu Zixi spread his hands and said, "My father was an official in the same dynasty as you, and is of the same generation. My seniority is naturally higher than your grandson."

Qi Haitao's four grandsons all shook their heads, "That's impossible."

"I see that you are at most ten years old, younger than my fourth brother, how can you be an elder."

Qi Zhan saw that the little girl spoke with a refreshing tone, and heard that her breathing was long and powerful. She had practiced martial arts, and she was different from the noble girls in Chang'an he had seen before.

Yu Zixi looked at Qi Zhan a few times, and joked: "Your martial arts talent is better than my cousin, then I will be convinced by you, and I can call you brother."

Without any embarrassment or anger, Qi Zhan said, "I'm younger than your cousin, and it's only natural that I can't beat him. I'm older than you. If you can beat me, I'll respect you as an elder. "

"That's what you said. There is a martial arts training ground in the mansion, let's compete in the afternoon to determine the seniority." Yu Zixi helped Ding to leave under Qi Zhan's astonished gaze.

Ouyang Jinyu said slowly: "My aunt died of dystocia when she gave birth to her cousin ten years ago. My cousin was brought up by my uncle alone. When my cousin was in Jincheng, she met several young ladies who had come from the frontier to practice martial arts. Influence follows martial arts, which is to strengthen the body."

Mr. Ding Laojun said anxiously: "It's time for dinner, you have to put everything aside, sit down and enjoy your meal."

"Miss specially instructed that when shabu-shabu is cooked, meat and meat should be shabu-shabu first. After eating [-]% full, you can eat wine, and then shabu-shabu. If you feel that your stomach is still a little short, you can have a crispy sesame seed pancake at the end." Ma Qi, who was standing by the side He stopped the servant from pouring wine, and stepped forward to demonstrate how to eat hot pot.

Everyone learned how to boil mutton in a decent manner. After the first chopsticks were dipped in the seasoning, the meat was so delicious that they directly poured plates of mutton into the pot. Two tables of [-] plates of mutton were eaten up in a short time. up.

Duke Ding said with a moved face: "The mutton is so tender and delicious after being cooked like this."

"Where is this mutton, it doesn't have the slightest smell, it's much tastier than the mutton I ate in the Northland." Dongfang Ding became happy and talked a lot.

Qi Haitao was excited to eat, and said loudly: "My lord, we were so hungry that we ate boiled meat on our chests and backs in Beidi, but we didn't think it was as delicious as this one."

Dongfang Ding said: "At that time, the Huns and horse bandits were killed, and the human corpses were thrown aside. The seriously injured horses could not be taken back, so they were all slaughtered and boiled to eat. The horse meat that could not be eaten was smeared with thick salt , Marching all the way and eating all the way.”

"Are you used to eating?" Ouyang Jinyu specifically asked Dongfang Xuanyi who was sitting beside him eating happily.

"I've eaten about two large plates of mutton by myself right now. You still ask me if I'm used to it?" Dongfang Xuanyi poured the chili oil into the seasoning bowl in front of Ouyang Jinyu, and said with a smile, "This oil makes the meat a little bit worse." It's so fragrant, it's so spicy that I feel like I'm back in the Southland."

"Eating too much spicy pepper can cause acne." Ouyang Jinyu quickly put away the seasoning bowl.

In the small dining room next to the kitchen, the grandparents and grandchildren laughed and cooked the mutton pot.The red copper pots they use are small ones for one person.One small pot per person.

Ouyang Jinfeng was very excited to be able to cook the pot by himself. He usually doesn't like to eat mutton, but this time he ate a lot.

Ding asked tactfully: "Zixi, do you like Qi Zhan?"

"It's not pleasing to the eye. I'm already ten years old, and he actually called me a little girl." Yu Zixi swallowed the mutton into his belly, looked at the white fish balls and red meat balls that were just served, and murmured with a tangled expression on his face : "I'm going to compete with him in the afternoon, so I can't eat too much. What should I do?"

Ouyang Jinhua jokingly said: "You, you can't say anything without eating."

"Who told you to make the food so delicious?" Yu Zixi said with a smile: "I used to eat roast lamb made by Hui Yiren when I was in Jincheng, and I ate very little each time."

Xiaoqin walked in quickly, and said anxiously: "Miss, the food over there is very fast, and one and a half muttons have been eaten, you think there is still half a mutton left, maybe it is not enough, do you want to send someone to the West Market to buy some? "
