In the dining room of Lin Feng's house, instead of everyone having their own dining table, craftsmen made an Eight Immortals table for Lin Feng, Bai Yuyao and Zhao Lexian to eat together.
Bai Yuyao was originally somewhat resistant to this arrangement. She was a woman, and if she and Lin Feng ate together, people would say that they were uneducated and didn't understand the rules. She wanted to eat separately.
But Lin Feng couldn't stand it anymore, so they decided to have dinner together. Even Zhao Lexian was not willing to eat with Lin Feng. No matter how well Lin Feng treated him, Zhao Lexian had to stick to his duty.
But Lin Feng forced the order, and Zhao Lexian had no choice but to obey.
Even so, both Bai Yuyao and Zhao Lexian have said that they will never eat with Lin Feng once outsiders are around. This is the rule.
It's okay for the family to be together. If guests come, they have to eat together, which will make Lin Feng embarrassed.
Lin Feng couldn't resist, so he agreed.
This Eight Immortals table is very spacious, more than enough for two people to sit in a row. Right now, there are only four people, Lin Feng, Ying Jiuxiao, Wang Tang and Lin Feng, sitting down in their own seats.
Ying Jiuxiao looked at the Eight Immortals table, especially the stools sitting on them, which were a bit novel, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Lin, the tables, chairs and benches are very special. They are very different from today's desks. Did Mr. Lin also make them?"
Lin Feng smiled and said: "I did make it. It's actually simple. Any craftsman can do it at a glance. When eating, I like the whole family to gather around it. It's lively and not deserted, so I made this table. "
Ying Jiuxiao was thoughtful after hearing this.
Lin Fengzhong's family.
This is an emotional person.
Lin Feng's family has been ruined, and now that he is getting married in Yongning County, he is equivalent to becoming a member of Da Qin.
Being emotional is a good thing.
Ying Jiuxiao smiled and said: "You just said that the food is delicious, I am looking forward to it."
Wang Tang stroked the beard under his chin and said with a smile: "I am also looking forward to it."
Wang Yue blinked, a little strange. Although he was very familiar with Lin Feng, he even called him brother. However, he has not eaten like this at Lin Feng's house. After all, he is very busy during this time.
Unexpectedly, the Lin family’s food is also different.
Not long after, an attendant came in and brought a large bowl with stewed pig trotters with lotus roots. The pork on the market today has never been castrated, and the pork has a strong smell.
Fortunately, the pig's trotters used in Lin Feng's house were marinated in wine to remove the fishy smell, then blanched to remove the blood foam, then stewed with old ginger, and finally stewed with yellow peas, so that the flavor was completely revealed.
The peas are soft and glutinous, the pig's trotters are raked and rotten, and they have the fragrance of peas and the meaty fragrance of pig's trotters.
This is excellent food.
Regarding pork, Lin Feng had already asked the chef at home to find a butcher to castrate the piglets and start raising pigs from an early age so that he could eat better pork.
Lin Feng looked at the stewed pig's trotters with lotus root that was served, waved his hand and said: "Ying Gong, Wang Gong, give it a try."
Ying Jiuxiao frowned.
He saw the pig's feet and the forked position of the pig's crotch, and lost interest. He looked at Lin Feng and felt that although Lin Feng was a genius, his food had some bad taste and he actually ate pig's feet.
This is what pigs tread on.
How dirty!
Ying Jiuxiao valued Lin Feng very much and could not refuse Lin Feng. He looked at the pig's trotter soup in the bowl without any appetite, so he turned to Wang Tang and ordered: "Wang Shangshu, come, you invite me first."
"ah!"
Wang Tang exclaimed when he heard this.
Wang Tang himself is also a member of a general family, a member of a large family, and he is also very particular about his diet.
How to eat pig's feet?
It's so dirty.
However, the emperor arranged it, and he did not dare to refuse. He could only smile and said helplessly: "Okay, I will have a taste first."
Wang Tang picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of trembling pig's trotters, and put it into his mouth.
Wang Yue saw it in his eyes and felt happy in his heart.
I'm glad that I'm younger, so I'm not at the front of the queue, so I don't have to eat.
He also didn't want to eat pig's feet.
Wang Yue mourned for Wang Tang in his heart, thinking that his father would be very uncomfortable after eating pig's feet this time and not being able to eat for ten days and a half after returning home.
"Hey, it tastes different."
Wang Tang's eyes lit up.
There is no trace of dry wood in the mouth of the pig's trotters, and there is no trace of peculiar smell. On the contrary, it is pork trotters, which has a unique fatness and a hint of fragrance.
In particular, the pork trotters melt in your mouth, are extremely soft and glutinous, and are very comfortable. Wang Tang swallowed it in three or two mouthfuls, and the meaty aroma of pig's trotters bloomed from the taste buds on the tip of his tongue.
His whole body was actually addicted to it.
tasty!
It’s truly delicious!
Wang Tang's eyes were bright and he couldn't help but stretched out his chopsticks and picked up a piece of pig's trotters to eat. This time, when I ate it, I was filled with a mouthful of soft meat, which made Wang Tang, an older man, even more happy.
Ying Jiuxiao felt a little weird after seeing it. Are pig trotters delicious?
It must taste terrible?
Why does Wang Tang seem to be enjoying himself?
Ying Jiuxiao was curious and asked, "Wang Shangshu, how do you feel?"
"I'll try again."
Wang Tang stretched out his chopsticks again, picked up a piece of pig's trotters and ate them. He breathed a long sigh of relief and said with emotion: "This pig's trotters is really delicious. I am someone who has tasted delicacies from all over the world, but this piece of pig's trotters is so delicious."
Ying Jiuxiao suddenly understood.
This old guy Wang Tang, rather than giving it a try, is clearly taking the opportunity to eat more meat. He stretched out his chopsticks, picked up a piece of pig's trotters doubtfully, and put it into his mouth.
The meat is delivered to the mouth, and the fragrance fills the air. Immediately, Ying Jiuxiao chewed it twice. The meat was smooth and soft. He ate it directly and spit out the bones easily.
Ying Jiuxiao's eyes were even more shining.
The pig's trotters were very soft, and even more delicious for an old man like him.
too delicious.
Ying Jiuxiao glared at Wang Tang, then quickly took off her chopsticks without any hesitation.
Wang Tang and Ying Jiuxiao kept eating. This scene fell into Wang Yue's eyes. His face was full of shock. Are pig's feet delicious?
This is a pig's foot!
There is an odor.
Wang Yue was curious. After all, Wang Tang had eaten all the food, so he picked up his chopsticks and prepared to pick up a piece of it. But as soon as he stretched out his chopsticks, Wang Tang looked over and said, "Wang Yue, you must respect the old and love the young, do you understand? I and the Marquis of Zhenbei haven't eaten yet, why are you in a hurry?"
Wang Yue was confused.
Is this the biological father?
He actually refused to let him eat, and even said that he should respect the elderly and cherish the young. This was simply disrespectful to the elderly.
Lin Feng saw this scene in his eyes and smiled softly, but at this moment, the attendant brought another plate of tofu.
This is simple home-cooked tofu, with a hint of numbness. In this era, if there were no chili peppers, there would be no doubanjiang. However, without doubanjiang, we could use cornel to make the sauce, which barely brought a spiciness, as well as ground Sichuan peppercorns crushed into powder.
The taste is quite passable.
When the tofu was served, Wang Tang and Ying Jiuxiao each ate a piece in tacit understanding, their eyes brightening even more.
The tofu is delicious.
Far more flavorful than other tofu.
While the two were eating, three more dishes were served: fried mutton with celery, roasted chicken with taro, and fried eggs with chives, and finally a bowl of rice.
Lin Feng filled a bowl of rice by himself. He took the chopsticks and said with a smile: "Mr. Ying, these dishes are very simple. They are all home-cooked dishes. Because pork generally has a smell and is difficult to use. The pork legs are good after being processed. I Used it. After a few months, the pigs I raised will become more delicious. Now just eat some, come on, let’s eat.”
Ying Jiuxiao and Wang Tang were already eating, they were completely transformed into gluttons, and they kept grabbing the food.
Tofu, delicious!
Stir-fried mutton with celery, absolutely delicious!
Taro roasted chicken, delicious!
Scrambled eggs with chives, fresh and refined!
They are all of the best taste in the world.
These dishes were unprecedented in the palace and had never been prepared by any chef. This kind of taste is excellent for Ying Jiuxiao and Wang Tang who have very ordinary food.
The two old gluttons kept eating.
Wang Yue also ate, and while eating, he looked at Lin Feng. He felt that his life was in vain.
This dish tastes amazing.
too delicious.
He regretted even more that he only went to Lin Feng's house for dinner now. If I had known earlier, I should have come earlier to eat.
A meal was enjoyed by both host and guest.
Ying Jiuxiao was a little full after eating, looked at Lin Feng, and asked: "Mr. Lin, this is my first time to eat these dishes. I have eaten all kinds of delicacies outside, but they have never been so delicious. Was this invented by Mr. Lin?"
"yes!"
Lin Feng nodded.
He chuckled and said: "I am a layman who likes food and drink. I thought about this when I had nothing to do."
Ying Jiuxiao suddenly said: "Mr. Lin, after I eat the food prepared by your chef, I'm afraid that when I return to Xianyang and eat the food at home, it will taste the same as Jue Wa, and I won't be able to eat other food. This food is so delicious. ”
Wang Tang agreed: "It is true. I have traveled all over the country and seen countless delicious dishes. But compared with these dishes, they are not even a little bit worse. Although they are all ordinary dishes, the taste is completely new."
Lin Feng said with a smile: "This is a simple matter. The prince asked his brother to recruit a cook from the county government and come to my house to study for a period of time, and then the cook can return to the Wang family. At that time, Ying Gong will also let someone learn from him."
"Okay, okay, this arrangement is very good."
Ying Jiuxiao took the initiative and said: "I like Mr. Lin's arrangement, so it's settled."
Wang Tang looked at Wang Yue and ordered very seriously: "Wang Yue, you must let your cook study carefully and don't be lazy. Otherwise, don't blame me for dealing with my family."
"My son understands."
Wang Yue cursed in his heart, but he honestly agreed.
Ying Jiuxiao stood up and said: "After bothering you for a long time, it's time for me to leave. After all, I have to return to Xianyang early to report to His Majesty. Mr. Lin, I look forward to your coming to Xianyang soon."
Lin Feng said: "Don't worry, Mr. Ying, this day will come. When the time comes, I will bother Mr. Ying."
Ying Jiuxiao said: "I'm looking forward to it."
He clasped his hands together, bowed to Lin Feng, then turned and left.
Wang Tang also bowed and left.
Lin Feng personally sent Ying Jiuxiao, Wang Tang and Wang Yue away before returning to his house to rest. After all, what he said earlier made Lin Feng quite hard and needed a good rest.
