Chang’an Small Restaurant

Chapter 58: eat barbecue together

    During the evening meal, Mrs. Jiang Tai smiled and asked, "The rose dew was rewarded by a saint? Why didn't you see the yellow stick? It's something from the palace, it's very rich and mellow."

      A miss of closeness. Since Lin Yan ended his foreign post and returned to Beijing to serve as Shaoyin, these things have been common.

    "But it's not for the saints." Lin Yan scooped a small bowl of fish fillets for his grandmother, carefully picking out the peppers inside, and said, "Occasionally get some roses and throw them away for nothing. It's a pity, so I asked Shenji liquor store to help make some honey-stained and candied sauerkraut."

    Lin Yan paused, "Miss Shen is not too troublesome, she helped us steam some flower dew."

    Mrs. Jiang Tai smiled and said, "No wonder! I said why I haven't seen a yellow sign. So it turns out that steamed flower dew is still popular among today's girls? Lady Shen's craftsmanship is really good. When I was young , the sisters who play together also like to make this, jasmine in spring, rose in summer, sweet-scented osmanthus in autumn, and some people have also steamed plum blossoms, saying it is a cold fragrance." Mrs. Jiang Tai said that she was still waiting for her girlfriend. matter.

    "When your grandfather took office in Hangzhou, I tried to steam with a lot of flowers, and it was very good. At that time, I gave it to relatives and friends and called it 'Hundred Flowers Dew'." This is after marriage. matter.

    "Afterwards, things became too complicated, and gradually I did less, and your mother..." Mrs. Jiang Tai stopped and said with a smile, "I remember these old sesame and rotten millet clearly, and I will eat it today. I can't remember anything, and I'm also very weird with my stupidity."

    Lin Yan handed over the bowl, and said warmly, "You changed the prescription of the imperial doctor, and it seems to be much better. Besides, it doesn't matter if you don't remember the morning meal."

    "If you can't remember the morning meal, of course it doesn't matter, but if you can't remember people and things, it's not good. If you're good, I can help you see a bride."

    Lin Yan lowered his eyes and smiled, "That doesn't matter."

    Mrs. Jiang Tai shook her head in disapproval.

    Lin Yan used a small plate to hand over half of the rice dumplings that were cut open - this thing is not easy to digest, only let the old people taste it, the Dragon Boat Festival is coming again, this is the first time this year to steam new dumplings .

    Looking at the rice dumplings in the plate, Mrs. Jiang Tai suddenly said, "My eldest man is so careful and looks good, but I'm afraid I won't be able to marry a good little lady?"

    The servants were stunned and laughed, even Lin Yan laughed.

    Looking at her grandson who has grown into a handsome man, Mrs. Jiang Tai was a little sad and a little relieved, sighed in her heart, and smiled.

    After dinner, Mrs. Jiang asked "Be careful with the slippery road" again, Lin Yan agreed, and came out with a salute, wearing wooden sandals under the porch, holding an umbrella, and exiting the grandmother's yard, slowly Walk slowly back to the inner study.

    The rain this evening made Shen Ji's business a lot light, and just after Xu Zheng, no one was there.

    The four of them packed up, and Yu San asked, "What's for dinner today?"

    Shen Shaoguang said with a smile: "Didn't we just order the roasted meat branch? I think there is some meat left today, so let's grill it!"

    Yu San frowned, "Isn't there a special stove for roasting meat? It will take two days for the stove to be delivered."

    Shen Shaoguang smiled and said, "Child! Take the charcoal basin for heating in winter and make do with it."

    Yu San: "…"

     

    Shen Shaoguang also went to help, equal to three cuts, then marinate the meat with pepper, salt, sugar, clear sauce, rice wine, gorgonian powder, etc. The cumin powder will be added when it is roasted spread.

    Cumin is called benzoin at this time, just like wolfberry, hawthorn, etc. It is bought from drugstores. It is said to have the effect of regulating qi, appetizing, dispelling wind and relieving pain. I don’t know if it can expel wind and relieve pain, but it is certain that it can be appetizing. Sprinkling it on barbecue can increase the aroma by 30%.

    It's a pity that its good friend Chili is not there, otherwise it will be fragrant, and people in a workshop can make it fragrant.

      rush…

    It was also a coincidence that when the meat was marinated and the vegetables were ready, the rain gradually stopped, and some new stars appeared in the sky.

    Shen Shaoguang moved the table, charcoal pot, meat, vegetables and the like to the yard.

    It just rained, the summer heat subsided, and the blue brick floor was washed clean. He took out the bamboo mat that had been laid in the store before, put the table out, and placed a few futons next to the table. Shen Shaoguang took the hidden capsule and leaned against it, shaking the small fan while watching Yu San Roast.

    A Yuan couldn't wait, smashed walnuts with a hammer next to her, and spruced it up first. Shen Shaoguang didn't often stretch out his hand, so A Yuan gave her half of it.

    Shen Shaoguang suddenly found the meaning of "the sky is as cool as water at night, lying down and watching the Altair and Vega", but it was the Qixi Festival, I haven't passed the Dragon Boat Festival here, where people are quiet, and here I am The aroma of barbecue... "Silver candle and autumn light cold painting screen", shouldn't the painting screen sent by the Lin Mansion be put out to suit the scene?

    But Shen Shaoguang suspects that the "painting screen" in the poem is not such a large floor-to-ceiling screen, but a small pillow screen standing in front of the pillow on the bed to block the wind. ", the so-called "Xiaoping Mountain in Autumn at the Bedside", the so-called "Paper Screen Stone Pillow Bamboo Square Bed, Tired Hands Throwing Books and Long Dreams" ①…

    Pillow screen is a private thing, and there are all kinds of paintings. I have seen a beautiful woman on the pillow screen of a scholar who has a legendary book and walked down ②... Shen Shaoguang smiled slyly, the pillow screen of this scholar is probably the same as The Fengyue Baojian in the Red Chamber is a set.

    When I think of a screen, I can't help but think of the person who sent it. I wonder what was painted on the screen of Lin Shaoyin's bed headrest, who looked so serious?

    This Lin Shaoyin confused Shen Shaoguang. Shen Shaoguang knew that the food in his store was delicious, but it was so delicious that Jingzhao Shaoyin, a well-informed gentry and a well-informed disciple, used it as a canteen every day?

    And the overly polite return gift, the first time was nothing, I was just in time to buy a house and land, this time…

    But otherwise there is no exception.

    A person like Lin Shaoyin who is cold, rational, and talented, doesn't fall in love with me, right?

        Maybe people are rich and well-mannered? The nobility is a stinky and particular group, what kind of habits do not have?

    Wang Ziyou was still snowing in the middle of the night and went on a boat to find a friend and came back to his friend's house. If Di Andao thought about it, he should think that this kid has some hidden feelings for him that he can't tell. .

    Let's turn around again, so what if Lin Shaoyin really has so much meaning? A marriage that is not the right match has a very small chance of happiness. Marriage is like company mergers and acquisitions. It involves cooperation and games in many aspects of assets and personnel. It is not a "sentient", and it can ensure smooth cooperation and long-term win-win.

      Yes, it's fine.

      The eldest princess is so arbitrary...

    Hearing the voice of "Lang Jun, pay attention to your feet", when he turned his head, he saw Lin Shaoyin at the gate of the courtyard.

    Shen Shaoguang: "…"

    Achang smiled, "The slave went to the front to get the wine, just when Lin Langjun came..."

    So, you brought him directly to the back home? Shen Shaoguang knew Achang's problems, and he was at a loss when he saw the "noble person".

    That's all, let's be safe when you come. "If Langjun doesn't dislike it, please take a seat and eat some roasted meat." Shen Shaoguang stood up and smiled.

    Lin Yan nodded: "Excuse me."

    Lin Yan has never done such an "indecent" thing as staying in a woman's house overnight in his life. He was a little uncomfortable, but his face became more and more serious.

    Shen Shaoguang looked at him, obviously he was here to rub the barbecue, but it seemed like he was holding an executive meeting...

    Yu San expressionlessly handed the grilled mutton skewers, chicken skewers, pork belly skewers, tofu gluten vegetable skewers to Achang, who placed them on a large plate and served them up Treating guests and giving to his little lady, but not knowing whether to wait on guests to go to branches and cut small pieces, Lin Yan said warmly, "I'll just do it myself."

    The rest of the baked goods were taken, and Yu Sanzi took them, brought another plate of noodles, took Ah Chang and Ah Yuan, and went back to the room to eat.

    Shen Shaoguang smiled at Lin Yan: "Langjun please use it, don't be polite."

    Lin Yan smiled and nodded: "Thank you little lady for the delicious food and wine."

    I originally wanted to replicate the nightlife of ponytails, trolls, big vests, kebabs, and beer drinking, but it turned out to be a social dinner. Shen Shaoguang was not good at throwing off his cheeks and eating directly, so he had to put the meat on the plate and eat it with chopsticks - it felt that the taste was wrong.

    It would be embarrassing to "eat without talking" at this time, Shen Shaoguang ate some meat and drank some wine, and then he began to talk nonsense: "Today's charcoal is not good, we still use pine charcoal, which has a pine fragrance when roasted. Children, or use fruit charcoal, jujube charcoal, roast it with some sweetness."

    "If you don't have this charcoal, pick up some pine towers and put them on the charcoal fire, it's the same." Shen Shaoguang said again.

    "Is this the way in the palace?" Lin Yan asked with a smile.

      Look for it on the mountain in the woods.

     "That's it, it's already delicious." Lin Yan half-drooped his eyes and smiled at the table in front of him.

    Shen Shaoguang squinted and smiled, and Lin Shaoyin became more and more praised.

    Shen Shaoguang said again: "I haven't thanked your house for the screen, Mrs. Tai is so polite."

    "Today my grandmother praised the little lady's steamed flower dew, saying 'it is very rich and mellow', and the little lady should not be polite."

    Listening to what he said frankly, Shen Shaoguang felt that maybe he was thinking too much, and he became cheerful at the moment, "It's just that my thatched hut is very simple, and it would be a waste to put such a rich and elegant thing."

    Lin Yan looked at the peach trees in front of the window, the walls full of vines and green leaves, and the lush vegetable garden over there, smiled and said, "'The eaves under the shade of elms and willows, in front of the Taoli Luotang,' He Lou Is there?"

    Ha, sure enough, every literati has a dream of a hermit, living at the height of the temple, he is thinking of returning to the garden, the joy of fishing and woods, and living far away from the rivers and lakes, he is thinking of admonishing the emperor and the people, and the purple robe Jade belt, tsk tsk...

    "Shao Yin is elegant, beyond the reach of ordinary people." Shen Shaoguang said with a smile.

    Lin Yan glanced at her smiling face, her words were not in her heart, and her words were eloquent!

    Thinking of "Ling Se", Lin Yan lowered his head and took another sip of wine. In the corner of his eyes, the pretty face was reflected by the vermilion gauze lights, which made him feel ashamed.
