Food bloggers made fortunes in ancient times

The cook served several cold dishes, including braised beef in soy sauce, pickled duck feet, and cowpeas with ginger juice.

Among them, Song Yan prefers the pickled duck feet the most.

After just one bite, Song Yan roughly figured out how to cook duck feet.

The duck feet are first boiled, then rinsed with cold water, and then soaked in soy sauce and aged vinegar overnight.

The duck feet, which have been soaked for a long time, are extremely tender and fresh, and you can feel the mellowness of the aged vinegar and the richness of the soy sauce in every bite.

The skin of the duck's feet becomes very chewy, and the meat is just the right amount of soft and tender, and can be easily peeled off the bones without much chewing.

Lin Yifeng went to help block the drinking, and only Song Yan and Shu Changyu were left at the table.

Song Yan simply brought over a whole plate of pickled duck feet and asked Shu Changyu, "Do you want to eat?"

Seeing Shu Changyu shaking his head in disgust.

Song Yan directly brought the soaked duck feet in front of herself and started to eat them happily one by one.

Just at this time, Shu's father brought the groom to his table to toast.

Song Yan quickly dropped the duck paw in his hand, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, then raised his wine glass and said a string of auspicious words: "Third brother Shu, I wish you and sister-in-law a happy and lasting marriage."

After saying that, he tilted his head back and drank the wine in the glass.

Even though someone helped to block the drinking, Shu Changsheng still couldn't help but drink several glasses, and his face was slightly red.

"Xiao Song, I toast you with this glass of wine. I also hope you can find a beautiful bride soon."

"Haha, then I appreciate your good words." Song Yan replied politely.

Shu Changyu's eyes darkened, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a vague smile: "Third brother, you are drunk."

Shu Changsheng looked confused and said stupidly: "Ah? I'm not drunk."

Shu Changyu looked at him meaningfully: "Really?"

Lin Yifeng, who was standing by, keenly caught the warning in his words and quickly pulled Shu Changsheng away. As he walked, he muttered, "Third brother, you must be drunk. Look at you, you're talking nonsense."

Father Shu still smiled and said, "You two are having a great time, especially Changyu. Today I even asked the chef to make your favorite bean cake."

After saying that, he went to the next table to toast.

Song Yan turned her head and looked at Shu Changyu with amusement.

Shu Changyu was slightly speechless: "That was eight hundred years ago."

Song Yan smiled and said, "It's normal to like sweet things. My Erya likes to eat bread and cake."

There was no smile on Shu Changyu's face, and he suddenly raised his hand and reached out to Song Yan.

"What are you planning to do?" Song Yan looked at him warily, and instinctively leaned back, trying to keep his distance.

Shu Changyu sneered: "You are so brave, and you dare to make fun of me."

Song Yan opened her eyes and said innocently: "How did I make fun of you?"

Shu Changyu lowered his eyes and ignored him.

Song Yan moved the stool, moved closer, and explained in a low voice: "I really didn't laugh at you just now. I just felt that your father loved you very much. He remembered what you liked to eat and specially asked the chef to make it for you."

Shu Changyu lifted her thick eyelashes and looked at him in confusion.

At this time, the cook came over with a large plate of steamed buns and looked at them with a strange expression.

Song Yan realized that he was too close to Shu Changyu, so he quickly moved his stool to create some distance.

When he saw the cook enter the house, Song Yan felt a little embarrassed. Getting so close to an unmarried girl in public was indeed an overstep for him.

"I'm sorry." Song Yan bowed her head and apologized.

Shu Changyu realized the reason why he was apologizing, and said "Ha", then suddenly raised his hand, pinched his face and rubbed it a few times without any hesitation.

"You're such a darling."

"What are you doing?!" Song Yan slapped his hand away.

are you crazy.

Song Yan looked around quickly.

"Old Wu, come on, let's have a couple more drinks."

"Drink! We won't go home until we are drunk today!"

"This duck feet is good, I have to try it."

They felt relieved when they saw that everyone was still eating, drinking and chatting, and had not noticed their table.

However, he did not notice that when he turned around, the guests around him exchanged glances and secretly glanced at their table out of the corner of their eyes.

"I wonder what this little brother's background is?"

"It seems to be the young master's friend."

"Tsk tsk, the two of them seem to have an unusual relationship."

After most of the dishes were served on the table, Song Yan was already half full, but she saw the cook was still serving more dishes.

Song Yan couldn't help but be amazed. This table of dishes must have cost a lot of money.

After the cold dishes and staple foods, the next dish is the meat dish, braised pork.

Then two vegetarian dishes were served, and finally the braised fish fillets.

Guang'an Prefecture is not a coastal area, so the fish served at the banquet are mostly river fish. This type of fish has many bones and has a fishy smell, which needs to be neutralized with heavy oil and spices to cover up the fishy smell in the fish meat.

The chef invited to today's banquet is very good at preparing river fish.

The fish meat is fresh and not fishy, ​​but there are a few too many bones.

Song Yan knew that Shu Changyu liked to eat fish, but was impatient to pick out the bones, so she pointed to a piece of fish meat on the side and said, "Shu Changyu, here is a piece of fish belly meat, with fewer bones."

Shu Changyu picked up the piece of fish belly and ate it slowly, with his drooped eyes looking reserved and cold.

Song Yan took a quick glance, not daring to look any further, and her eyes inadvertently fell on his hand holding the chopsticks.

When he held the chopsticks, veins bulged on the back of his hand and the joints of his slender fingers were distinct.

She is not as slender as ordinary women, but rather full of power.

Song Yan stared at his hands and couldn't take her eyes off him.

It was not until Shu Changyu put down his chopsticks and let out a sneer that Song Yan's ears started burning. The way she had just peeked at Shu Changyu's hand really seemed like she was being a hooligan.

Song Yan was so embarrassed that she tapped her toes on the ground.

He very deliberately changed the subject: "Why don't I see your eldest and second sister-in-law?"

Shu Changyu picked up the handkerchief and wiped his fingers, saying, "Entertain the female guests inside."

Song Yan curiously looked into the main hall and noticed that two tables had been set up inside, specially prepared for female guests.

In their remote village, the separation between men and women is not as strict as in the city. After all, during the busy farming season, women also need to work in the fields.

At village banquets, men and women usually sit together, with no particular separation.

However, at the Shu family, it was the first time that Song Yan saw male and female guests being seated at different seats.

Finally, the groom's toasting session came to an end, and Shu Changwen was able to temporarily escape. He found a corner to sit down and fill his stomach.

Although the dishes on the table were no longer as hot as when they were first served, Shu Changwen was not picky and was content as long as they could fill his stomach.

He held the steamed bun in one hand, picked up a piece of braised pork, and chewed it in big mouthfuls.

Seeing Shu Changwen eating voraciously, Song Yan was afraid that he would choke, so she quickly poured him a bowl of tea: "Brother Shu, don't eat too fast, drink some tea slowly."

After eating a few steamed buns and braised pork, and drinking a few sips of warm tea, Shu Changwen slowed down his eating.

"I haven't eaten a single bite since this morning."

Although Song Yan has never been married, he has served as a best man for his friends. From morning to night, he is really tired after a whole day.

Shu Changwen sighed: "Fortunately, it's just this once."

Song Yan felt strange when hearing this, and he said, "Isn't there Shu Changyu?"

He remembered that in the novel, the heroine's wedding was even more grand and splendid.
