In the yard, Tang Sufan and others had just gotten off the carriage.
A sound like a cannon and full of banditry was heard from inside, echoing in the yard.
"Hey, what's the relationship between me and your young master? Your young master has said that you can come to his place to pick some fruits and green food for my wife every day. Don't block the way."
"Hey, Lieutenant Cheng, please don't embarrass me, the old man. The young master has already told me that the greenhouse in the courtyard must be carefully watched every day, and you..."
Are there no good things for people named Cheng in Chang'an City? You all have the air of a robber and a bandit.
When Tang Sufan heard this, his face immediately darkened, because the voice was so iconic that he knew who it was without even thinking about it.
He strode into the yard and ran straight to the backyard.
Li Shimin and others looked around each other with strange expressions on their faces. Why did this old gangster arrive first?
As soon as I entered the backyard, I saw——
Cheng Yaojin was holding a variety of fruits and vegetables in his arms. He was trying to escape from Uncle Wen who was trying to stop him and ran away.
In that embrace——
Cabbage, radish, leek, celery, this guy grinned and picked a courgette...
My left hand is so full that I can’t hold it anymore, and my right hand is still holding a few garlic sprouts...
"Old Cheng, I think your skin is itchy!"
When Cheng Yaojin heard this voice, his back felt numb.
Today I personally went to the house to get food for my wife, but I happened to find that this boy was not at home.
Looking at the bright glazed light and the lush green fruits and vegetables below, I felt a little jealous.
I was just starting out with the chicken feathers as arrows, and I was thinking about how to get some more and improve the food, when I saw this guy coming back.
How embarrassing...
When Uncle Wen saw that his young master was back, he finally felt relieved.
"Master, you are back. This man named Cheng is so unreasonable!"
His expression quickly changed, and he ran to his young master to complain.
Cheng Yaojin:......
This seemingly honest butler of the Su Fan family turned out to be a two-faced person.
He had just been given the title of Colonel Cheng, why is his surname now Cheng?
Cheng Yaojin turned around awkwardly, and when he saw that Tang Sufan was following...
Your Majesty... Old Man Fang... Du Laohei... Changsun Lao Yinbi... Wei Penzi... and the princess Gu Panshenghui looked at me...
Ahem...
Even more embarrassing...
But Cheng Yaojin didn't have any shame, so he immediately said with a grin.
"Hahahaha, Su Fan, I don't think your greenhouse is full of dirt. I want you to loosen the dirt. Isn't that..."
What's the matter? If only for a little while, I, Old Cheng, could run away with these precious fruits and green food...
However, the movement was a little slow——
Not to mention that others don't believe it, Li Shimin and others want to give this old guy a slap in the face. Can you give me some snacks by making up an excuse?
Tang Sufan raised his brows and said with a half-smile, "Oh, loosen the soil? Have you finished loosening it?"
This old guy is really hard to get rid of!
Loose soil, luckily only you, an old bandit, can think of this reason, loose soil? Did the food fall into your hands?
"Hey, it's time to relax, it's time to relax..."
"You're done, why don't you put down my food..."
Tang Sufan glanced angrily.
Cheng Yaojin held an arm full of vegetables and couldn't bear to put it down. Suddenly, he felt so blessed that he patted his head.
"Oh, look at my old Cheng's brain. By the way, isn't it... My wife's appetite has increased in the past two days, so I, old Cheng, will come here to pick some today..."
The corner of Tang Sufan's mouth twitched, and he had no intention of complaining anymore.
"Your wife's appetite has increased. Can she eat so much?"
"Hehe, aren't you treating this well..."
Seeing the old gangster acting like a fool, Tang Sufan didn't even bother to argue with him.
Fortunately, this guy is a mulberry farmer and knows how to pick vegetables, so his roots were not harmed.
But this unhealthy trend must be stopped!
This time it was food. Next time, the old bandit might carry his own door and run away.
"Okay, okay, put the vegetables you picked for me in the kitchen. I'll cook the meat later. As for the old lady's food, I'll pick them again later."
Shabu-shabu? ?
When Cheng Yaojin heard that there was something delicious to eat, his eyes lit up.
It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten the delicious food from this kid’s hands. Now that noon has passed, I didn’t expect that this kid hasn’t eaten yet.
What a God-given opportunity!
"Hey, hey, you haven't eaten yet. It's okay. Lao Cheng will help you with it!"
He didn't care about the dishes, so he immediately ran towards the kitchen neatly...
Li Shimin and the others were speechless for a moment when they saw that slutty look...
"This...!! Hiss!——"
At this time, Wei Zheng, who was standing behind Li Shimin, twitched his face and looked as if he had been severely shocked.
Because the greenhouse in the backyard comes into view.
All the grass thatch of the greenhouse was lifted up by Cheng Yaojin.
Under the warm sunshine that was slightly visible in the winter, it reflected the flowing white crystals, shining brightly.
Wei Zheng: Liuli, so much Liuli!
He didn't know what this greenhouse was, and it was his first time coming to Tang Sufan's small courtyard.
He simply saw the colored glass piled up like it was free of charge...
From the outside, this courtyard looks ordinary, but inside it is so unique!
This is too luxurious! The luxury is heavenly! How much money is this worth?
At this time, Li Shimin and others looked "contemptuously" and turned their heads "carelessly" to look at Wei Zheng, the "local dog".
Among them, Du Ruhui was even worse, looking at Wei Zheng with eyes full of "arrogance".
Thinking about last time, this "local dog" was still him...
This time, it's the next one's turn.
"Hey, Xuancheng, it's just some colored glaze, why should you be surprised."
Li Shimin waved his hand lightly, calmly and calmly, and walked over at the lead.
No need for others to say anything, just go pick some vegetables you like.
Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling also walked around the greenhouse and went to pick some of their favorite vegetables.
Li Shimin plucked the spinach vigorously. Spinach was sold at the highest price in the market, so it was natural to eat the more expensive one.
Fang Xuanling was pulling leeks, while Du Ruhui never got tired of eating coriander.
Even the leader of the Guanzhong family, Changsun Wuji, was carefully pinching Wo'erqing.
In this winter, you can still have the freedom to eat green food, which is a beautiful thing...
Wei Zheng rubbed his eyes as if talking in sleep.
It was unmistakable. Under the emerald flowing glass, there was a bunch of various green vegetables. Wei Zheng even suspected that it was autumn and summer.
No, even in autumn and summer, ordinary wealthy families may not have so many vegetables!
Apart from anything else, the spinach in His Majesty's hands is not cheap in normal seasons.
Even he can't eat it more than once a year.
What's more, it's still cold weather and spring is not yet here!
He looked at this ordinary courtyard, and then looked at the crystal clear and beautiful glass, Wei Zheng felt bad.
Seeing this guy's shocked appearance, the monarch and his ministers all raised their mouth corners and their eyebrows were dancing with joy.
Tsk, tsk, tsk – country bumpkin.
At this time, with Du Ruhui's thoughts at the forefront, everyone expressed their highest spiritual contempt for Wei Zheng.
In less than a quarter of an hour, each of the four monarchs and ministers had a handful of fine dishes in their hands.
Li Shimin walked in front, and the three old men walked behind.
One person held a handful of vegetables and walked slowly past Wei Zheng.
"Old Wei, look at what you want. You can pick whatever you like. Don't be frightened. It's just a glass shed."
With that said, Li Shimin patted the shoulder of Wei Zheng, whose beard was still shaking, and then the four monarchs and ministers left "arrogantly".
Wei Zheng was confused in the wind.
It's getting late too.
It's already past noon, and counting the time of the next life, it's almost early now. We can't keep so many people waiting.
Tang Sufan went to prepare stew early in the morning.
At the strong request of Li Shimin and others, the best mountain venison was stewed.
More than ten kinds of fine seasonings such as Codonopsis pilosula, wolfberry, star anise, fennel and so on are put inside.
Looking at the venison on the pot, Tang Sufan suddenly had a thought.
He glanced at Cheng Yaojin who was happily washing vegetables next to him——
Because...I want to eat beef...
The taste of beef is something I haven’t tasted in a long time.
Sizzling beef, braised beef, roast beef...
Which one is not a delicacy that is worthy of heaven’s praises?
But now that I have money, it’s not easy to get some beef.
Isn’t there a rightful owner now?
This old gangster was a big cattle eater during the Zhenguan period.
Tang Sufan leaned over while they were alone in the kitchen.
"Old Cheng! Hush!"
Seeing this guy sneaking around, Cheng Yaojin subconsciously softened his voice.
"What?"
"Look, I helped you hide your identity in front of my father-in-law. Shouldn't you thank me?"
Cheng Yaojin looked strange, I should thank you, thank you grandma for your legs!
It's easy for me.
To perform a play, you have to perform it both ways.
Then Tang Sufan said: "Look, I heard that you had beef at home that day. So, can you bring me some?"
It turns out that this guy is not a good guy either!
Cheng Yaojin's eyes lit up, as if he had found a like-minded person, and he immediately asked with a big smile.
"You kid wants to eat beef!"
"Keep your voice down! It's not like you don't know about those pedantic fellows outside! Whether you give me or not, that's a word! I'm just greedy for beef!"
The two of them crouched under the stove, "quietly plotting."
Cheng Yaojin immediately patted his chest, his eyes flashed brightly, and then he glanced out the window, his "righteous words" expression suddenly appeared on his face.
"You are confused, eating cows is against the law. How can I, Old Cheng, have beef? No, no -"
After saying that, he pretended to be confused and shook his head.
No, how does this kid know he has beef at home? I, Old Cheng, keep a close eye on the gossip about my affairs. Your Majesty doesn’t even know about it. Why does this kid know about it?
You must not let this kid take advantage of you. If this kid threatens you and asks for sex, you won't be able to do it.
Tang Sufan:......
"Fart, others don't know and I don't know?"
"Have you ever eaten sizzling beef? Have you ever eaten braised beef? Have you ever eaten braised beef? Have you ever eaten hand-made beef balls? Besides, beef is nutritious, so patients should eat beef! If you don't eat it yourself, your wife also needs it~ "
Tang Sufan raised his eyebrows at Cheng Yaojin. Each name of the dishes made Cheng Yaojin feel greedy.
The main reason is not that I am greedy, ahem, my wife needs supplements.
"Do you have a share in me?"
"As long as you give me enough beef, don't worry, I'll get your share!"
This old gangster really doesn't let go of the rabbit before he sees it!
"Okay, if you want to eat beef in the future, I will give you some ideas. Don't make it too little."
The two of them reached an agreement and smiled tacitly.
Tang Sufan: Great, we have beef to eat.
Cheng Yaojin: Great, we will have delicious beef to eat in the future.
"make a deal!"
At this time, Li Shimin and others entered the kitchen with dishes.
Hearing the deal between the two, Li Shimin couldn't help but frowned astutely, "examining" the two of them.
Could it be that these two people have reached some kind of business deal?
"Deal? What deal?"
"Ahem..."
Tang Sufan stood up, coughed dryly, and then waved his hand in a haha manner.
"What deal? Lao Cheng said he wanted to eat dumplings! How can I make dumplings now? I'm so ignorant, Lao Cheng!"
Cheng Yaojin:......
But skipping a few words, it’s time to prepare the dishes.
With the help of Lao Li and others, the emperor and his ministers worked hard with the mentality of experiencing life, and soon they were almost done.
The meat is stewed first, and the side dishes are prepared first.
After a while, several side dishes were put into the big pot, and two small cold dishes for drinking were also prepared.
After moving the small stew stove to the living room, Li Shimin and others consciously served the cooked dishes to the Eight Immortals table in the living room.
The alluring fragrance lingered in the nostrils, and everyone secretly twitched their Adam's apple and swallowed their saliva.
When it comes to food, this guy is definitely No. 1 in Chang'an.
Now Wei Zheng understands why His Majesty likes to leave the palace and run to this boy Tang Sufan whenever he has nothing to do.
He would be willing to put it on him!
"Come on, Rou'er, sit next to your father..."
Li Shimin directly called his daughter next to him.
After taking a glance, sure enough, this dog, just like the dog smelled it, leaned directly next to Li Rouer.
The people at the table hurriedly sat down, and even Li Junxian and Tang Sufan, who was now a "personal bodyguard", also greeted them and sat down.
There are not so many rules here.
Perhaps because of his resistance to the emperor's deskmate, and with the company of these familiar people, Li Junxian's acting skills were finally more mellow today.
At least there was no surprise.
"Hey, did you forget your bowl?"
Everyone at the table sat down, but found that the bowl was not taken.
This is also because people are busy and have many things to do, so they forget about it.
Li Shimin informed the cashier closest to the door, "Lao Fang," and Fang Xuanling went to the kitchen, and came back holding a bunch of eye-catching glass bowls.
Until Tang Sufan carelessly took the glass bowls and "threw" them in front of everyone, Wei Zheng still couldn't help but stare and gasp.
I picked up this "glazed bowl" with some trembling...
