Xu Wanning hurriedly poured herself a cup of the newly served warm Lihua Zui, and Pei Heng snatched the rest away.
One cup after another, for fear that I would miss a sip.
The way he protects food doesn't look like a murderous demon, but like a child who hasn't grown up yet.
Xu Wanning: "..."
Xu Wanning didn't even want to move her chopsticks anymore, she was so angry.
Pei Heng drank a glass of wine and saw Xu Wanning sitting still. He bit a piece of fish brain with a spoon and put it into Xu Wanning's bowl. He did not forget to say, "This is very delicious."
Xu Wanning: "..."
"Young madam, don't blame me for looking ugly. If not, blame this cook for his excellent skills." Pei Heng was full of praise.
He said it was ugly to be popular, but no one really thought it was ugly. He is gentle and elegant, and his every move is upright. No one can find anything wrong with him.
Hongmei Qingxing saw that her young lady did not dare to say anything in front of this person, so she guessed that this person's identity was not simple, so she ate with her head down. Chen Wang, besides eating, was very energetic.
And the one who eats the most delicious food is none other than the youngest Chang'an.
He was young, and he had met Pei Heng last time. Although he was still wary, as he enjoyed the meal, his wariness disappeared.
Besides, Xu Wanning's fried fish scales were so delicious. After Chang'an had his fill of fish and pig's trotters, he started eating fried fish scales.
The fried fish scales were placed in front of Chang An. It was a small plate, and the contents inside could not be discerned from its original appearance.
Upon seeing this, Pei Heng curiously asked Chang An, who was enjoying his meal: "What is this?"
Changan replied, "Fried fish scales."
Pei Heng asked again: "Is it delicious?"
Chang'an nodded: "It's delicious."
Then, Pei Heng reached into the plate and grabbed a few. He looked at them carefully first, frowning, fearing that they were some poisonous snakes and beasts. Seeing that Chang An was eating happily, he threw them into his mouth and chewed them. Chewing, the frown suddenly relaxed.
"It's really delicious." Pei Heng grabbed another handful and threw it into his mouth.
The fried fish scales on the plate were immediately reduced by half...
This person just competes with adults for wine and meat, but why does he compete with children for snacks?
Xu Wanning: "Mr. Pei, eat meat and drink wine."
"No, these fish scales are delicious. I didn't expect fish scales to be able to do this. You are such a good cook." This was Pei Heng's sincere compliment.
He had eaten in so many delicious restaurants in Kyoto, and even he was tired of eating the emperor's food. But after all, even the imperial chef had tasted this chef's skills, but he had never tasted fried fish scales.
Fragrant and crispy.
The adults grabbed two handfuls, and the fish scales on the plate disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Chang'an: "..."
Pei Heng took a sip of pear blossom to quench his thirst, and then poured it out. Only two or three drops came out of the jar, and then he looked at Xu Wanning.
Xu Wanning smiled softly: "Mr. Pei, I was drunk with twenty pots of pear blossoms, and I drank them all."
Beside the feet were jars lying in various directions.
Pei Heng smiled and said, "Pei is full of wine and food. Thank you very much, madam, for your warm hospitality."
Xu Wanning also smiled: "Master Pei, just eat well."
I hope that a good meal and a good meal will help this person become kind-hearted in the future and prevent the butcher's knife from hanging over the heads of Xu's family.
After sending Pei Heng away, Hongmei and Qingxing were cleaning up the mess in the small kitchen.
Qingxing looked at the twenty wine pots scattered on the ground, and her heart broke. "Twenty pots of pear blossoms are so drunk, eight taels of silver for each pot! I didn't even drink a sip, it was all drunk by that outsider." .”
Hongmei couldn't help but asked curiously: "Qingxing, when did our lady know that person?"
Qingxing shook her head, "You ask me, and I'll ask you too. Isn't it always you who goes out with the lady?"
Hongmei also shook her head.
She doesn't know either.
Chang'an obediently swept the floor and placed the twenty wine bottles one by one.
He knew how the young lady knew this person, but he couldn't say it since the young lady didn't let him.
Qingxing didn't even drink a sip of Lihua, and was in a bad mood. She pulled Hongmei and muttered bad things about Pei Heng.
"He looks like a human and a dog, but he can really eat and drink. Look at the way he eats, and you'd think he was reincarnated as a starving ghost." Qing Xing muttered, "Ouch."
She covered the back of her head and turned around to glare at Chen Wang who was flicking the back of her head: "Why are you flicking me?"
Qingxing pursed her lips, bulging with anger, and her round black eyes were watery, as if she could talk.
Chen Wang looked at those talking eyes and explained to her: "Be careful, the walls have ears. This person's kung fu is unfathomable..."
"What? He knows kung fu? Can you beat him?" Next time he comes to eat and drink alone, let Chen Wang punch him out.
Chen Wang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I'm afraid I won't be able to catch his ten moves."
Qingxing was stunned when she heard this, "Is he, his kung fu so powerful?"
Xu Wanning walked in and said after hearing this: "Next time you meet this person, go as far as you can, and don't offend him."
This person is not a kind person.
Qingxing saw that the young lady looked helpless when talking about this person, so she had to stick out her tongue, "But young lady, how do you know this person? Who is he?"
"His name is Pei Heng."
"oh."
The small kitchen was quiet and there was no reaction at all.
Also, they were far away in Kyoto and didn't know Jin Linwei at all, let alone Pei Heng.
Everyone knows the bad reputation of Lord Jin Linwei in his previous life. Just hearing the name can make people's blood surge.
Some corrupt officials who had done bad things in the previous life were scared to death two or three times when Pei Heng rushed to the mansion to catch him.
But now, Jin Linwei has just been established, and his notoriety has just begun.
Pei Heng, who was still innocent at the moment, walked back to his residence with his hands behind his back.
The night was already deep, and there was still a slight cool night breeze. After drinking almost twenty pots of pear blossoms in one breath, he was still awake, but now that the night breeze blew, Pei Heng felt that his head was starting to feel dizzy.
Fusong saw him appear and immediately went over to greet him, "Supervisor, have you been drinking?"
"Well, Yancheng's Lihuazui. I thought I would have to wait until tomorrow to drink it, but I didn't expect that I would drink it tonight."
"This Zhuangzi belongs to the Chengyang Marquis Mansion. Knowing that the governor is coming, he will definitely entertain him warmly."
"It was just a coincidence." Pei Heng wanted to laugh inexplicably when he thought about how Xu Wanning was reluctant to let go but did not dare to get angry when he was drinking and eating meat.
She definitely didn't expect that she would sit down to eat, let alone that she would be so rude.
Thinking of the delicious fish head stewed with tofu, pickled fish fillets, and fried fish scales, Pei Heng couldn't help but swallow silently. He ate most of the food and wine carefully prepared. Don't blame her for not being angry!
"The cook in Chengyang Marquis' Mansion is very good, which gives me a reason to go see Cui Lu."
He has taken a liking to the cook and wants to take him away!
