Rich and wishful

Chapter 114 On the Road to Beijing ([-])

"If it wasn't a hunter, how did it come here?" Jiang Xia asked subconsciously, making everyone laugh.

"Silly girl." Jiang Yiwen held his forehead.

"When we passed the forest ahead, we happened to meet a father and son who had just come out of the mountains. Most of the deer and these pheasants and rabbits were bought from them. We didn't shoot much ourselves." Liu Huairan explained.

"The pheasant meat is not tasty after being roasted. Some of them were wrapped in mud and buried there. The others were sent to the master chef for stewing soup. The master master said that today I have your favorite braised pig's trotters to eat. These Take a few bites less, so you don’t have enough delicious food in your stomach.” Jiang Jianwen pointed to the bottom of the fire and reminded Jiang Xia that this kind of thing had happened before.

"Wow, there's still braised pork trotters today. I know, I won't eat too much." Jiang Xia nodded indiscriminately, drooling while roasting the rabbit meat.Made several people laugh non-stop.Looking at it from the side, Eggplant blushed for his young lady, but unfortunately, the master didn't feel shy at all.

In fact, Jiang Xia can't be blamed for being greedy. The chef who followed them all the way to the capital was the master chef of Quan Zhou Guozhuang Scholar Building.That old man's culinary skills are not even close to the royal chef in the palace.Coupled with the "cheating device" of Lingquan water that outsiders don't know about, can the things he cooks be worse!

It is said that this old man was invited back by Mumao Villa with great difficulty.Apart from teaching his apprentices, he rarely cooks.This time he would follow them, and cook frequently, but it was all for the sake of Mr. Liu Fuguan.

To say that Liu Fuguan is not a person who is willing to treat himself badly, as far as he is concerned, it is not easy for him to live at this age, and he does not know how long he will live in the future?He has always been used to enjoying it since he was a child, if he is only asked to be "thrifty" when he is old, it would be better to kill him directly.

So when the old man is not practicing, he is extravagant.Use only the best of everything.Let's talk about this trip, his carriage is one of An Ruyi's only three.

Although An Ruyi and the two men from the Liu family scoffed and despised the old man's words that "I don't know how long I will live in the future", they were not stupid enough to refute him.

Anyway, Mumao Villa has plenty of money, so it's no problem to provide for an old man, no matter how extravagant he is, he will never be poor.Even without the supply from Mumao Villa, the old man's own gold, silver, jewelry, and antique treasures alone would not fit in even the biggest storage bag.Can he reduce his own expenses?Anyway, no one is short of money, and the old man can do whatever he likes, whoever is patient and meddles in his own business.

Liu Huairan was cutting bamboo, and Jiang Jianwen's movements were a step slower because Jiang Jianwen handed over the skewered rabbit meat to Jiang Xia for roasting first.Jiang Yiwen and Zhang Kang have already occupied a pile of fire, brushing seasoning powder and honey and starting to barbecue.

A few people quickly roasted several skewers of rabbit meat and venison, and sent someone to send them to the elders.The next ones started to eat by themselves.

Jiang Xia tasted a few mouthfuls of the meat she grilled. Although she thought it tasted good, she didn't dare to eat more, so she threw it to the eggplant.I personally cut a piece of venison and roasted it.While eating and playing, they were talking and laughing, and soon someone came to invite them to have a meal. At this time, the beggar chicken buried under the fire was almost ready, so Liu Huairan and the others took the beggar chicken and left first. Only those who waited on them were left to deal with the aftermath.

In fact, they are more interested in playing barbecue than eating.After the meat is grilled, most of them don't eat much by themselves.Especially Jiang Xia took a few bites at most, and most of the rest would go into the stomachs of people like eggplant who served her closely.After all, the food cooked by the master chef is not a big pot of rice. It is only for the masters, and not everyone can eat it.

A group of people, there are at least 100 people accompanying them up and down.Naturally, the meals for the people below are prepared by other women who are responsible for cooking.

Although it is outside, because there are female relatives, the dining place is also tightly surrounded by cloth curtains.Because it is inconvenient to go out, the rules of eating are not so fussy, and everyone has no distinction between men and women, and they just eat together at the same table.

The food was already set up, and sure enough, there was Jiang Xia's favorite braised pig's trotters.Sit down in order of seniority and inferiority, Mr. Liu moved his chopsticks first, and asked someone to put the braised pig's trotters in front of Jiang Xia. She was so happy that she smiled and thanked happily.

"Grandfather, you dote on her too much. She has become more and more wild recently, and she still has a dignified appearance of a lady." Liu Rong looked at Jiang Xia's smiling face, then looked at Zhang Kang, and suddenly He began to worry about whether he would dislike his daughter for being too "wild" - she played with them a lot along the way, and even rode horses and hunted together.

"Don't worry about it too much. If a girl doesn't pamper her, don't she still yell and scold? I think Xia'er is fine. What's the use of a girl who is blindly dignified? Don't give me my good great-granddaughter. I'm so stupid, according to me, it's better to be more lively." Liu Fu noticed that his granddaughter's eyes stayed on that kid from the Zhang family for a while, and he couldn't help but rubbed his chin and wondered, isn't this because he's attracted to him?The kid looked fine.

I have to say that Mr. Liu has told the truth.

"That's right, Rong Niang, don't be too attached to Xia'er." Jiang Zijie also glanced at Zhang Kang calmly. Just now, the lady mentioned it to him. At first, he was pleasing to the boy, but now the more he looks at him, the more he thinks It seems to be a little weaker, and the small appearance with no power to restrain the chicken is not harmonious no matter how you look at it. His father and brothers are all big and thick, how come this kid has changed?
Hearing that she was being discussed, Jiang Xia gnawed on the pig's feet while looking at his mother with pouted lips, so aggrieved!But when the elders talk, they are talking about themselves, so it is definitely inappropriate for them to intervene.

Being watched by Jiang Xia so aggrieved, how could Liu Rong not feel it.She also felt wronged.So he glanced at his grandfather and husband angrily.

"I just said to her that you all protect her. If she gets married and is rejected by her husband's family in the future, what will you do?"

"Who dares? I'm not so easy to talk to Liu Fuguan's great-granddaughter who wants to bully me." Liu Fuguan almost patted the table.Glancing at Zhang Kang, he saw that the kid was still calm and completely out of the way—well, didn't he know?He showed a puzzled look.

Zhang Kang was looked at inexplicably, thinking that there was something wrong with him, he couldn't help but secretly glanced at himself several times, and he didn't even feel good eating in an instant.
