Xie Ye and Xie Ye looked at each other and asked the maid standing at the gate of the courtyard, "Is the eldest madam in the courtyard?"

The maid should be.

Xie Ye was silent for a moment, and said, "Go and spread the word and tell the eldest lady that we have returned to the mansion."

The maid went into the courtyard to spread the word as instructed.

The two were young, and they were in a period of curiosity about everything. Thinking of Xu's leading two younger brothers to stay in the third room, it was inevitable to make up a lot of brains.

What quarrels, accounting entanglements, internal disputes... No matter what they thought, they would never have thought that the Xu family was really just eating skewers in the third room and forgot the time.

After the maid entered the yard and reported it, Mrs. Xu realized that she had missed the time too much, and quickly cleaned the string of fried skewers in her hands, wiped the corner of her mouth and walked out.

As we all know, the Xu family is synonymous with dignified and virtuous, and has never neglected the rules and etiquette.

So when she covered her face with her hands and hurried out while chewing on the skewers, Xie Ye and Xie Ye were so surprised that their jaws dropped to the ground.

Xu Shi said to the two sons who were standing outside the courtyard gate dumbfounded, "Why did you come here?"

Xie Ye looked at Mrs. Xu, who had recovered to her previous dignified and gentle appearance after swallowing the fried skewers, and stammered, "After we returned to the mansion, we heard that my mother came to the third room. Seeing that you haven't come back for a long time, I thought of coming over to have a look. "In fact, it was mainly because he was afraid that the Xu family would lead the two younger brothers to have a dispute with others in the third room.

Mrs Xu nodded and said, "Let's go, go back."

Xie Hao couldn't help being curious and followed Xu's pace: "Mother, what were you doing in there just now? Where are Ah Zhao and Ah Yao?"

Mrs Xu walked steadily and walked gracefully, and said softly, "A Zhao and A Yao were talking about coming to the third room to play, so I sent them over."

Xie Hao thought that the two little guys were here to look for Xie Xun, so he raised his eyebrows and said, "Mother, you are too much for them, now it's dinner time, it wouldn't be strange to send them over to play with the third uncle. ?"

Xu Shi was stunned for a moment: "It was delivered just after the meal." She had an embarrassed look on her face, "The two little guys are greedy for their third aunt's craftsmanship. already."

Xie Ye and Xie Ye suspected that they had heard it wrong, and didn't react for a while.

In just three months, Xu has changed a lot, her face is no longer the same gentle expression as if wearing a mask, she smiled with a lively look, and said bluntly: "Don't talk about them, even me hungry."

The impact of these words was too strong.

Xu Shi turned back: "What's wrong?"

When Xie Ye and Xie Ye were still in shock and couldn't react, their thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a shout.

Xie Li came over with a serious black face: "Madam."

Xu Shi turned back and said in surprise, "Husband, why are you here too?"

Today, the eldest son and the second son returned to the house. Xie Li returned to the courtyard early after he was off duty. As a result, the wife was not in the courtyard, and the two younger sons were not there. When I asked the maid, even the two eldest sons were not there, so they all went to the third room. !

So, this is weird.

Xie Li reasonably guessed that the third sibling was cooking fresh food again. Usually, when she cooks food, she will give some to the big room to taste. Could it be that she will directly let people taste it today

Xie Li knew that the Lin family opened a store, and that Jiang Shuyao would find someone to try the taste after pondering the recipe. Yu Gong, as a family member, he should help his younger brothers and sisters to taste new products; Yu private... Hahaha.

Xie Li rushed to the third room with a jumping pace, hoping to catch a hot bite. With an anxious face and hurried steps, she looked like she was seeking revenge, so frightened the maids on the road hurriedly ducked their heads to avoid, for fear of being "revoked" by this famous living king of Dali Temple.

Xie Li hurried to Sanfang, but when he saw that they had all come out, his whole body was like a balloon pierced by a needle, and he was suddenly discouraged: "It's okay, I'm just here to take a look."

Xu always felt that something was weird, but he couldn't guess it.

At this moment, a little maid chased after her, holding a plate in her hand, and saluted after seeing Mrs. Xu: "Madam, the third lady asked the servants to send some fried skewers to the big room, saying it was for the two of you. The young master of the government has a taste."

Xu's heart suddenly softened beyond words: "Brother and sister are really..." How can you be so considerate, it's too painful.

She paused for a while, then raised her head and said to the two sons who were staring blankly at the fried skewers: "Go back with me and thank your third aunt."

"This—" The two didn't want to see Jiang Shuyao, because they were really afraid of Jiang Shuyao, a sturdy woman. After all, she and the county master had once scared a group of people into the water. Fortunately, the two of them were young at the time and barely escaped. Over a catastrophe.

Mrs. Xu had already treated Jiang Shuyao as a family member, and wished that everyone would praise her good sister, so regardless of the hesitation of the two, she led her two sons back to the third room, and there was another one who kept silent. Xie Li with the beard.

Jiang Shuyao prepared a lot of fried skewers. She and Zhou Shi alone couldn't finish them. There were also white rice porridge and cold dishes in the kitchen.

Just when she was worrying about how to solve the remaining fried skewers, the maid reported that Mrs. Xu was back again, with the eldest master and the two young masters.

Jiang Shuyao was happy: "Let them in quickly."

A group of people from the big room entered the yard. As soon as they came in, the spicy smell of the yard suddenly made them all refreshed.

Xie Li stroked his beard, took a deep breath, and sighed, "I'm afraid the third brother and sister's craftsmanship has improved again."

Xie Ye and Xie Ye pointed their ears and stared at Xie Li—

No way, Dad, how come you, the big-eyed brow, rebelled against the revolution? When Miss Jiang was going to marry the third uncle, you were sighing all day long.

Xie Ye and Xie Ye looked at each other, and they couldn't believe it. What kind of food in the world could make their dignified and generous mother, rigid and serious father, and two younger brothers who didn't like to pay attention to them all surrendered!

Seeing so many people coming, Jiang Shuyao, who likes to be lively, smiled and said hello: "Sister-in-law, eldest brother."

Xie Li hurriedly replied, "Hello brother and sister, hello brother and sister." The soothing tone made Xie Ye and Xie Ye suspect that their father was possessed by a monster.

Mrs. Xu turned her head to the two staring sons and said in a kind manner, "Don't you see your third aunt yet?"

The two of them were terrified by the Ji Feng inside, no matter what their thoughts were before they came, they all converged at this moment, and respectfully greeted Jiang Shuyao.

Jiang Shuyao responded with a smile, and then greeted him warmly: "I happen to have made a lot of fried skewers, do you want to try it?"

Xie Ye bowed again and said respectfully, "Thank you for the kindness of the third aunt, this is-"

Before he could finish speaking, he was suddenly pushed away by his father, Xie Li had a straight face, and his tone was as serious as ever: "Very good, very good."

Mr. Zhou stopped next to Jiang Shuyao, and he actually learned Mr. Xu's standard gentle smile: "The fried skewers made today are very delicious, you can be considered here." There is a taste of a good wife and a good mother.

Xie Ye and Xie Ye blinked, no way, it's impossible, did they see it wrong

Where is the mean and vicious second aunt who used to have a bad face when she saw anyone

The mother has changed, the father has changed, and even the second aunt has changed, what the hell is going on!

It must be the wrong posture for them to enter the mansion today!

When they were messed up in the wind, Xie Li had already stepped up to the table.

Looking at the two bowls of the rich sauce, I swallowed silently.

"Brother, are you coming to string bean curd?"

Sheryl nodded.

Jiang Shuyao took the oil-draining skewers off the iron net, put them on a plate, dipped them in the sauce with a brush, and swept the bean skins neatly. , brushed with another layer of hot sauce, and hung on the skewer with the red and bright sauce with sesame seeds.

After brushing the sauce, she handed the fried skewers to Xie Li, who thanked Xie Li and took it, can't wait to put it in his mouth.

The bean skin was rolled into a narrow roll with leeks in it, just one bite.

As soon as you enter the mouth, a strong spicy flavor immediately occupies every corner of your mouth. The bean skin is fried to just the right temperature, the edges are crunchy, and the skin is fried with little bubbles. It has a crispy and mellow taste after being oiled, and it does not lose too much water, and still retains the tender taste of the bean skin. , soft with chewy tenacity.

The leeks inside are over oiled and soft. The cooked leeks have a special fragrance. It is very crispy when chewed. The juice that spills out is sweet. The hot sauce was just right.

Xie Li has always been taciturn, but at this moment he couldn't help but praise: "It tastes wonderful." After saying these four words, he couldn't help but take another bite.

Jiang Shuyao took two more strings of crispy bones, brushed them with sauce, and handed them to the two brothers who were standing beside them: "How about a taste?"

The two of them were still in the midst of a huge shock and didn't recover, so they took it over: "Thank you third aunt."

The bamboo skewers still had a trace of heat, and the sauce on the surface became brighter when the fried skewers were held in front of them. The meat skewers after being deep-fried at high temperature have a unique charm. They are not boiled skewers that are slowly soaked in flavor, nor grilled skewers with the aroma of charcoal grilling, but the oil temperature locks the tender gravy inside and at the same time gives the meat skewers. It brings a slightly charred meat flavor, but there is no charred part on the surface of the meat skewer, only the reddish-brown glossy and slightly crispy skin.

This was the first time they had eaten crispy bones. The food they had eaten in the past was carefully processed. The meat could not have been boiled and chopped, for fear of exhausting the teeth of the nobles, so when the teeth touched the bones, both of them were a little surprised. .

The crispy meat part is soft and firm, dipped in the sauce and cumin chili noodles, it is delicious and spicy. The brittle bone is not difficult to chew. With a little force, it shatters with a "click" sound. This taste is really addictive. After the first bite, there is a crisp sound in the mouth.

The crispy bones and the meat are chewed together, soft and crispy, tender and hard, and the taste is not lost in the rich taste. It has both the freshness of the meat and the fragrance of the sauce, and every bite is a pleasure.

The maid just happened to bring tea, and they quickly took a cup and poured it into their mouths. The cool tea removed the greasyness of the fried skewers, leaving only the lingering fragrance in the mouth for a long time, which was really torture.

Xie Ye and Xie Ye fell silent after eating the crispy bones, and glanced at them, they saw two younger brothers sitting not far away.

Xie Zhao and Xie Yao found two high stools and sat next to them. Their short legs couldn't reach the ground. One of them had a fried ham sausage in their hands.

Xie Ye and Xie Ye heard their own saliva. Obviously, he had no appetite when he came, but at this moment, he was even greedy for the string in his younger brother's hand.

Xie Zhao felt the gaze, raised his head and happened to meet their gaze, and smiled at them as if he was holding a fried skewer: "Big brother, second brother, ham sausage!"

They were caught greedy for other people's food, and the two of them blushed and quickly looked away.

Jiang Shuyao heard it and brushed two hams for them: "This is specially made for children, it should suit your taste, after all, children like it."

Child? Is she two or three years older than them? They were there when she molested the handsome man.

The two murmured and took the fried ham uncontrollably.

The ham sausage is red and tender, slashed with a knife, and blooms like a flower after being fried. The ham sausage is tender on the outside and tender on the inside. The meat on the outside is fried and shrunk into a solid thin skin. The meat on the inside is very different from the outside. , the meat is full of flavor.

Well, kids are kids, they love ham so much.

While they were sipping ham, they thought that the next time their classmates in the academy brought up the story of the third aunt who molested the beautiful man and fell into the water, they had to correct her name.

Those who can cook such delicacies must have an exquisite heart, and there must be no secret behind the flirting with beautiful men back then... Forget it, let's just admit it, they are just too greedy for this kind of food, who can stand it!
