Back to the ancient favorite

Xiliu turned her dip pen and walked to the gate of the palace, just in time to meet Lu Heng who was dragging a car with a group of people.

"Lu Heng, what are you doing?" Xiliu glanced at the things in the car and then remembered, didn't she want to build a bathroom in the gym...

"Master, don't you want to build a bathroom in the west room?" Lu Heng was a little scared watching him turn his pen.

Shiodome nodded and said, "That's right, that's right, look at my memory, then I won't ask you to make things, I'll go to the street."

"Master, go slowly." When he heard that Xiliu was not looking for him, Lu Heng wiped his sweat unavoidably, with lingering fear in his heart.

Xiliu turned her pen and asked Lizi behind: "Where is the best blacksmith?"

After thinking for a while, Lizi said, "I'll take you there! Last time, thanks to his old man's help."

Xiliu didn't remember anything anyway, so she followed the happy Lizi.

The blacksmith shop was extremely hot, Xiliu was waiting outside for Lizi to call someone out, so she looked around, and found that everyone passing by her would stare at her, so she gave a wave of smiles for free , People who watch it are embarrassed.

A thin old man came out, looked at Xiliu and said, "I don't know if Master Xiliu is here, it's really disappointing."

Now Xiliu is too lazy to chat with him, so she took out the blueprint she had drawn and said, "I want to use it tonight, can you get it out?"

The old man took the drawing and frowned, a sunken basin, a square shelf, with an opening on one side.

"The old man dares to ask, this is..."

"I have written the dimensions of the grilled fish rack and grilled fish basin I designed for you." Xiliu poked the paper with a pen and laughed.

The old man was a little puzzled, spread out the paper on the round table outside and said, "What is this? How many feet is it?"

Only then did Xiliu realize that it was broken... I only know centimeters, what the hell is a ruler.

"Do you...have a ruler or a zhang?" Xiliu blinked and asked.

The old man nodded, and took out a wooden ruler for him. Xiliu took him to draw the size on the paper, and the old man wrote it down next to him and said, "Give it a try, old man."

"It must be successful! Dinner is up to you! Come on!" Xiliu made a gesture of cheering, and the old man even tilted his head, not knowing why.

Afterwards, Xiliu happily left the blacksmith shop and said to Lizi, "Next! Go back and pickle the fish!"

On the way back, Xiliu bought a lot of thin wire, which was used by others to tie straw, and Xiliu regarded it as a treasure.

When he arrived at the palace, he wrapped his hands with gauze and started a happy life of winding barbed wire.

Sitting next to him, Lizi didn't understand what he was doing at all. Xiliu used the thin wire to make a bamboo building around the city to form a fishing net, and it got bigger and bigger. She glanced at her face and said, "Lizi, why is your little face so small?"

Lizi frowned innocently and answered innocently, "How would I know?"

Xiliu shook her head and went around a few more times, leaving two empty seats at the end, and happily took the two connected pockets to her own gym, because Lu Heng was there.

"Lu Heng! Hurry up and let me be the two handles!" Xiliu jumped up and down in front of Lu Heng. Lu Heng was so shocked that he didn't want to see this person at all, but there was nothing he could do, he was a young master.

Lu Heng made a bow and asked with an expression of 'please let me go', "What do you want, young master?"

Xiliu showed him the barbed wire fence she made and said, "Make two things that I can pinch, right now."

Lu Heng helplessly took over the object and looked at the incomprehensible object, took out two polished logs from the small wooden bar next to it, tried to compare them, and then said: "Wait a minute, master."

After a while, Lu Heng handed the worn barbed wire back to Xiliu.

Xiliu shook it to make sure it wouldn't fall off, and said happily, "Come to the yard to eat fish at night!"

Without letting anyone refuse, he ran away happily. Before he could speak, Lu Heng shook his head and was full of complaints: "I don't know what this young master... wants to do."

Back in the kitchen, the cook had already bought the fish kill and put it on the slate. Xiliu inspected it and was very satisfied. He rolled up his sleeves with gauze and prepared to pickle the fish.

Steps for marinating fish:

Now remove the scales, plan and kill the fish, remove the viscera, wash, change the knife, and split the two petals vertically, then grind the fish with salt, cooking wine, and five spices, spread the inside of the fish, put a little green onion, a little ginger, and put it in a basin for later use .

Preparation steps:

Raise the charcoal fire, apply oil on both sides of the barbed wire, and then sandwich the fish between the two nets to start the long process of grilling the fish, which must be turned over continuously in the middle.

During the period, Ge Tianming's hometown chili powder and secret chili sauce were served, and continued to be roasted over charcoal fire.

After roasting for a long time, there was a burst of delicious aroma in the kitchen yard, and everyone was attracted by this smell, and came to watch.

Xiliu tossed and turned over and over again tirelessly, smiling and humming. After seeing that both sides of the fish were browned and the fish was firm and only slightly elastic, he got up and happily put the big fish on the basin with the grid.

"It's still early, Ge Pangpang, what kind of food do you like, cut it up, don't need to cook it, and leave it there until I come back." Xiliu clapped her hands and removed the gauze, then smiled, "Don't touch my fish Do you hear me!" A group of people watching the grilled fish nodded and sighed, "I heard you."

Xiliu hummed a little tune and rushed to the blacksmith's shop. Seeing Xiliu's arrival, the old man hurriedly took out what he wanted from it.

Two deep concave rectangular pots, a rectangular shelf with holes all around, and a small door on one side.

Xiliu put the pot on the shelf and compared it, it fit perfectly, and she couldn't help laughing.

After asking Lizi to give the money, she left holding a baby.

After returning to the palace, he ordered the servants to rearrange the stone table in the garden, and he instructed Ge Tianming to put a charcoal brazier on the rectangular bottom frame first.

Afterwards, Xiliu hurriedly chopped some onions, cabbage, and mushrooms, then added Ge Tianming's secret chili sauce, garlic, spices, and a little water to fry, and quickly poured them into the iron basin, so that they would still be hot After putting the fish gently into the iron basin, he smiled softly.

Lizi Fengcheng rushed in and said: "Master, the prince is back."

"Ang, let him wash his hands and change his clothes, and go sit down in the garden." Then he continued his great business of grilling fish.

Lizi talked all kinds of things, but it was hard for Prince Man to give up the idea of ​​looking for Xiliu first and walked to the pavilion in the garden. He frowned when he saw Ge Tianming sitting there fanning something and baking something.

"Prince Ankang." Ge Tianming had no choice but to nod helplessly.

"Where is he?" Prince Man stopped to ask Lizi when he walked to the pavilion, and Lizi replied with an aggrieved face: "My lord, please sit down, the young master ordered you not to know."

"Why can't I let this king know!" Prince Man was angry again, he was afraid that Xiliu would steal a man behind his back, but now Xiliu has no such leisure time.

In the kitchen, Xiliu started the pot again, sautéed the onion, ginger and chili with oil and poured it on the side dishes they chose, and then put some meat and mushrooms that they liked.

After wrapping his hands with gauze several times and soaking two pieces of cotton cloth, he reached out and picked up the iron basin, and at the same time yelled: "Get the fuck out of me!"

The people who were still watching dispersed one after another. Xiliu walked steadily and quickly, wanting to get out of the iron basin as soon as possible.

In the garden, Prince Man was still questioning Lizi, until Xiliu's voice came from a distance: "Get out of my way!"

Prince Man frowned as he watched him approach with a basin of something unknown, and when he put the iron basin on the rectangular shelf, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The grilled fish is ready. "Then looked at the prince happily.

The prince was stunned for a moment, this red, dark and fragrant thing is actually for food?

Xiliu glanced at her masterpiece, patted her head and said, "Oh, I didn't bring the bowl, Lizi, go and get the bowl and chopsticks, and I'll pay you more."

Lu Heng, who happened to be passing by here, saw that the prince was there, and hurriedly wanted to turn around and leave, but was called back by Xiliu, who told Ge Tianming and Lu Heng to sit down properly, and then smiled and pushed the prince down as well. After getting down, he said: "Wait, I will make you a drink again." After speaking, he ran away happily.

Ge Tianming and Lu Heng didn't dare to sit at the table with the prince, they stood up again in desperation.

Wang Ye watched them stand up, shook his head and said, "Forget it, since Xiliu has two people left, let's sit down."

"Thank you, my lord, for the reward." "Thank you, my lord, for your gift." The two of them still only sat on their buttocks so that they could escape at any time.

Xiliu returned to the room, took some honeysuckle, and went to the kitchen to find some dried chrysanthemums, a little rock sugar, a little honey, and orange peel to make a mug of tea, and chilled it in ice water for a while. Take it out when the water cools down.

Holding 6 cups and bouncing back in front of several people, I found that everyone was still sitting there obediently.

"Why, if you don't eat it, it will be cold, and it won't taste good when it's cold." Xiliu pulled the pear into the water, glanced at the person standing behind Prince Man and asked, "Who are you?"

Prince Man looked back and said, "Ah Ren, this king's attack."

"Oh, let's sit down and eat together." Xiliu smiled super nicely. It's not a loss to eat Xiliu's dishes and get his bonus smile.

Prince Man was taken aback for a moment, but he could only nod along with him and let him sit down.

"For the first time, so many people are together, so happy." Xiliu helped Prince Man with the fish, with a smile on his face.

Prince Man watched him fascinated.

"Delicious!" Lizi stared at Xiliu with wide eyes, Xiliu poured him a glass of drink and said with a smile: "It must, I am the little overlord of the East! What I make is not delicious, come on Drink and watch, you lose your temper."

"It's delicious!" Lizi took a sip and then looked at Xiliu with wide eyes, "Master, Lizi never knew that Master is so talented."

"I have a lot of secrets, I will tell you slowly in the future." After speaking, she turned her head and met the prince's gentle eyes.

"Eat, look at me." Xiliu picked up the fish and stuffed it into his mouth, with an expression of 'look at the fart'.

The prince bit his teeth and suddenly laughed out loud, "It's really delicious."

"Necessary." Xiliu was praised by the prince for some reason, and he didn't know why his heart was full of warmth. He reached out and touched his heart, and glanced at the happy smile of the prince eating with vegetables. He didn't know that his nerves were broken again. Suddenly blurted out: "You like it, I will make more for you in the future."

Prince Man froze for a moment, raised his head to look at Xiliu, showed his white teeth with a smile, nodded and replied, "I like it."

'Digging, Liu Wei, what are you doing!You won't really be tempted by him! Xiliu was stunned, quickly lowered her head to drink her drink, frowned and questioned herself, but then raised her head to look at the side face of the prince, wanting to remember every detail deeply.

'No no no!It's the body that likes him!not you!Wake up! Xiliu sighed and stretched out his hand to hit him, but Prince Man stopped his hand first: "The three chapters of the contract, why are you doing this again?"

Prince Man frowned and saw his reddened hands with distressed expression on his face.

Xiliu glanced at it and said, "It's not in the way, it doesn't hurt."

"This king is in pain." Man Wangye's eyes leaked a lot of love and distress.

Xiliu was fascinated by this look: "Well... Liu Wei, Liu Wei, you seem to really like him." '

At this table, except for these two people who kept showing their affection, the other four people kept their heads in their mouths and kept eating, talking about how delicious it was, how spicy it was.

A few days later, the prince and Xiliu suggested that since he likes to be lively, he would invite some friends to the palace for a gathering, hoping that Xiliu could show his skills again.

Of course Xiliu happily agreed, because what could be happier than letting the prince eat something he made?

But in the next second, he refuted himself again.

The four days passed quickly, and during this period Xiliu made a lot of herbal tea for backup, but it was already the end of autumn, and it became cold when the sun set.

This time, Xiliu cleverly asked Ge Tianming to appear in front of everyone with a smile on his face while holding the dishes on the iron basin and herbal tea.

"It's cold, why are you wearing this?" Prince Man took off his outer shirt and put it on Xiliu, and first sprinkled dog food to everyone present.

"It's okay. It's not cold." Even so, Xiliu put it on.

After introducing the people present to Xiliu, Prince Man sat down and ate together. Of course, Prince Man did not forget to proudly praise his own Xiliu: "This time, Xiliu learned it by himself, and I invite you all to come and try it." .”

Anyway, Xiliu was not happy to record their names, so she labeled them as: people in blue clothes, people in gray clothes, and people in colorful colors.

After a few people boasted about it commercially, they tried this never-before-seen way of eating, but all of them raised their thumbs up: "Wonderful!"

"This fish is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and it's spicy but not dry. It's so articulate." The man in blue said.

"What is this, sweet mouth and throat." The colorful people took a sip of herbal tea and looked at the brown drink for a long time.

Xiliu replied with a smile: "This is herbal tea. I have learned some before. You like it. Take some back after eating."

Several people stared blankly at Xiliu's smile, and the man in gray shook his head and said: "Prince Man, this Xiliu is indeed the most beautiful man in the imperial city, and his smile is really more charming than thousands of flowers." .”

Even if Xiliu is an illiterate fool, he can still hear that this guy is trying to improve himself. He turned to look at Prince Man, and Prince Man smiled and said, "No, no, it's just empty."

'Fuck, saying that Lao Tzu is empty has its own show. Xiliu rolled her eyes, took a sip of water and ignored him.

The man in gray smiled and waved his hands and said: "Prince Man, there is no need to be modest. I heard that Master Xiliu is like a yellow eagle coming out of the valley. I wonder if you have such a blessing."

'What's the meaning? Xiliu Dike looked at this man in gray clothes and began to try hard to recall how the prince introduced him just now?Can't remember at all.

Lord Man swallowed his saliva, and turned back to ask Xiliu: "Xiliu, would you like to sing a song to... wish Yaxing?" Lord Man hoped that what he said was that he was not feeling well today, because Lord Man already felt that this Xiliu Liu doesn't know how to sing any songs at all.

But Xiliu is a guy who is not afraid of things. He smiled and raised his head and said, "Okay, let you listen to what is KTV Xiaobawang."

Everyone frowned, not knowing what he was talking about, even Prince Man frowned.

Xiliu snorted and stood up, thinking to herself: "Master, you know how beautiful you are when you ride a horse, let me sing a ditty?"I will sing you a pop song! '
