Chapter 14 Hot Pot Seafood


  Nanny Zhang looked in disbelief, but she saw Xiumei, who had gotten out of the car to buy something, had handed over two taels of silver to the seafood vendor. 


  Then, without waiting for the assistance of the escort guards, Xiumei moved the seafood basket to the carriage alone. 


  After being puzzled for a while, Zhang Momo guessed in his heart that Wei Ruo's money might have come from the gift the old man in the capital gave to Wei Ruo two days ago. 


  I murmured inwardly, even if I got my own money from the old man, I can't spend it like this, I really don't know how to organize a house. 


  After returning to Tingsongyuan, Xiumei transferred a basket of seafood to Tingsongyuan. 


  "Meimei, how about ..." Wei Ruo stared at the basket of seafood. 


  "Miss, you want to eat a hot pot, don't you?" Xiumei immediately looked through Wei Ruo's mind. 


  “Yes, Meimei, you really understand me!” He hasn't even opened his mouth yet! Meimei guessed everything right! 


  "Miss, I really can't guess what you think about other things, but in that case, as long as you look at me, I'll soon know what you want to do." make 


  hot pot seafood, after processing the rest, we will dry it for dry food." 


  The bottom of the spicy pot, the seafood ingredients, just thinking about this pot, Wei Ruo's index finger twitched. 


  "But Miss, did you forget that we don't have a kitchen or a pot, so we can't make a hot pot. " "Was not 


  is there a kitchenette in Yingzhu Park next door? Maybe we can borrow it" Wei Ruo said. 


  There's a kitchen next door!" Xiumei suddenly realized something after he finished speaking, "Miss, you didn't mean to send soy sauce to the second young master because of this, did you? 


  " How can I be, am I such a person?" Wei Ruo felt guilty. 


  Xiu Mei nodded. 


  Miss, you must be such a person!


  “Ehem, not important. The important thing is there is a place to cook hot pots and turn on a small stove. " "Then I'll go to the room to look for him 


  . How much spice is left?" 


  Xiumei turned around and went to the ear chamber that Wei Ruo used as a warehouse. 


  When he returned, he had a white cloth bag in his hand. 


  There were no chili peppers in this era, and there were not many herbs, Wei Ruona's taste nourished by the spices sometimes yearned for that stimulating flavor, she said, so he gathered all kinds of herbs that could be collected in this era. 


  Zanthoxylum bungeanum, Cornus officinalis, Fuliu vine, cinnamon, and mustard Combine these spices together, experiment with the ratio repeatedly, and try to, then get the most suitable seasoning package for Wei Ruo. 


  After Wei Ruo mixed it up, they were packed in cloth bags, and when necessary, just take out the bags. 


  "There's the last remaining bag of seasoning. I'll use it this time. Next time, Miss, if you want to eat again, you'll have to find a way to reunite those spices. " Xiumei brought back the spice bag 


  also as Back with bad news. 


  The spices were not easy to obtain, and Wei Ruo spent a lot of effort to gather them beforehand. 


  Wei Ruo nodded: "Wait a little calmer, I need not only spices, but also medicinal ingredients." 


  Then Wei Ruo asked Xiumei to stay in Tingsong Park to process the ingredients, and went to knock on Yingzhu Park's door alone . 


  The courtyard door opened, and Xiaobei, the maid, asked in surprise, "Miss, what can I do?" " 


  I'd like to borrow your little kitchen, and as a gift, I invite you to eat a seafood hot pot! My Meimei cuisine is very good skill." Okay, I guarantee you won't lose any money!" " 


  Miss ... I cannot make a decision about this, I must ask the young master. 


  " mister." 


  "Okay, miss, wait a minute, I'll go and ask." 


  Wei Ruo poked his head out to look inside. Like the last time he came, Wei Jin was still sitting in the octagonal reading pavilion, he seemed to like sitting in the courtyard and reading. 


  Somewhat far away, Wei Ruo could not hear the conversation between him and Xiao Bei, but he could see his face darken after Xiao Bei said something, instead, then he lifted his head and looked towards the door, his eyes matching Wei's. The ruo. Is correct. 


  Wei Ruo smirked back, and reached out to greet Wei Jinyi. 


  As he smiled, Wei Jinyi's complexion turned slightly dark. 


  What's up, isn't she smiling kindly enough? She thinks she looks good when she smiles, Meimei says she looks good when she smiles! 


  I don't know what Wei Jinyi said to Xiaobei, Xiaobei walked over with an embarrassed expression and said: "Miss, young master said, if you have something you want to eat, you should have something to eat, ask for a big kitchen to make it. It is small, and there is no good material, so it really does not fit.” 


  “I bring my own ingredients and seasonings. kitchen. It's been burning for a long time." 


  Xiaobei looked puzzled: "But the oldest woman ..." 


  "Please, please." 


  "But young master ..." Xiaobei turned his head and looked towards Wei Jinyi, how could he be the master, the young master let him He refused, but he did not dare to offend the oldest woman. 


  "I will speak to your young master myself!" 


  Seeing the problem, Wei Ruo passed Xiaobei and went straight to the Bajiao Pavilion. 


  "Second Brother!" 


  The sound of "Second Brother" made Wei Jinyi instantly frown. 


  "Second brother, let me borrow your little kitchen. We cooked a hot pot of seafood, and you ate it together. I promise it'll be good!" Wei Jin also stared 


  Wei Ruo, his eyes fluttered, full of anticipation. 


  After a while, Wei Jin also compromised and said: "As much as you." 


  "Thank you!" Wei Ruo happily thanked him, then dashed back to Tingsongyuan.


  Xiaobei walked back to Wei Jinyi, and whispered: "Young Master, Miss is completely different from everyone else in the mansion ..." Other people 


  in the mansion all were afraid to avoid their young master. The woman was fine, the last time she delivered soy sauce, this time even stranger, she said that she would come to their small kitchen to cook hot pots... " 


  Let her go, she looks like this, you can't explain it to her." 


  Wei Jin also did not understand.She liked to waste her tongue with others, but when Wei Ruogang came to Wei's house, she did not understand many things, she did not understand much, and he doesn't understand common sense in doing things, and he can't' explain a lot to her for a while. 


  Not long after, Wei Jin also saw Wei Ruo enter his courtyard with his maid. 


  The master and the servant brought many items to the small kitchen with a large bag and a small bag. 


  In the kitchenette, Xiumei was in charge of cooking, and Wei Ruo helped light the fire. 


  When the pot is hot, add the lard, and when the milky white lard melts, pour the seasoning package prepared by Wei Ruo. 


  The aroma of the spice was very pungent, after being stimulated with hot oil, it instantly filled the entire small kitchen and drifted into the courtyard. 


  "Sir, what is this smell? Why does it smell so good?" Xiaobei sniffed and sniffed, making sure that it was something he had never kissed before. 


  "Ink research." 


  Wei Jin also remained expressionless. 


  Xiaobei quickly regained his senses and continued grinding Wei Jinyi. 


  Wei Ruo dashed out of the small kitchen, ran towards Wei Jinyi, and asked, "Second brother, I saw the bamboo shoots in your yard grow quite well, why don't you let me break some and cut one? ?" Let's cook it in a hot pot and eat it?"
