Views:

The altar Buddha jumping over the wall not only conquered the stomach of Princess Jing, but also the hearts of the two chefs. The two chefs in Prince Jing’s Mansion, one is from the Jiang family, a famous chef family in the south of the Yangtze River. In history, the Jiang family has produced eight famous chefs all over the world. Their recipes and cooking methods have been passed down from generation to generation. direct descendant.

During the war, Prince Jing had rescued the head of the Jiang family, so in order to take care of the princess, when Prince Jing went to the Jiang family to ask for a cook, the Jiang family sent Chef Jiang, whose skills were second only to the head of the family, to Prince Jing's mansion to repay his favor.

The other is Huang Yuchu, the imperial chef who is best at medicinal food in the palace, and was once appointed by the Empress Dowager Taishang. Before the Supreme Emperor abdicated, he heard that Princess Jing was weak and needed long-term recuperation, so he gave Huang Yuchu to Prince Jing's mansion to be in charge of the princess's medicinal food. It can be said that if there is no Huang Yuchu, Princess Jing's dilapidated body may not be able to survive the encounter with Yu Xiaocao, and her soul will die!

Such a well-known celebrity chef and imperial chef were actually impressed by the culinary skills of a teenage girl. No one would believe it if he said it.

At this time, Yu Xiaocao didn't know this at all. She is carefully sorting out the recipes of Buddha Tiaoqiang, and is going to sell it to Young Master Wednesday at a high price! The fruit wood roast duck craze of Zhenxiu Restaurant is gradually receding, it's time to launch a special dish! ! "Buddha jumps over the wall" is well deserved! !

Why is it said that it was sold to Zhenxiu Restaurant at a high price? The ingredients used in Buddha Tiaoqiang are all top-notch treasures, and the high cost and price determine that the consumers for this dish are either rich or expensive. Those kinds of consumers are not short of money. Zhenxiulou can not only earn money, but also increase its popularity and make friends with some dignitaries. The benefits are great! No matter how high the price is, it is worth it!

On the second day after the development of Buddha Tiaoqiang, King Yang booked a private room in Zhenxiu Building to celebrate Xiao Shitou's passing the examination as a scholar. During the banquet, not only Dean Yuan from Rongxuan Academy, but also teachers from Xiao Shitou's class were invited. County Magistrate Zhao got the news from nowhere, and prepared a congratulatory gift and came forward cheekily. In addition to the protagonist Xiao Shitou, the Yu family also includes Yu Hai and Yu Xiaocao.

It was hard to persuade Old Yu, but everyone went to Zhenxiu Building. When he heard that there was the dean of the academy and the county magistrate, Old Yu, who had never dealt with officials in his life, was scared and hid in Yu's house. In the house in the town, no matter who said so, they would not come out. Except for the Yu family, no one else knew about this episode.

Xiao Shitou felt rather embarrassed, it was supposed to be a family gathering to celebrate, why did so many irrelevant people suddenly appear? Like a little grown-up, he said politely: "However, being a scholar is not a champion, so there is nothing to celebrate!"

County magistrate Zhao joked, "You are too modest. There are only two lin students in the entire Tang Dynasty, and you are one of them. Besides, you are the youngest among the scholars who passed the exam this year. It is said that you are from Zhili Province Master Xuezheng, I value you quite a lot, and even personally reviewed your test paper!"

Dean Yuan is quite satisfied with Xiao Shitou's achievements and performance. The little guy has only been studying for three years. If it wasn't for his extraordinary talent, he would almost have a photographic memory, and his comprehension is also amazing. For ordinary children, being able to read characters is already good. He even asked to take the county test!

Originally, according to Mr. Xiaoshitou's assessment of him, he was lucky to be able to barely pass the exam. Who knew that he had a smooth journey, passed the county examination, the government examination and the college examination, obtained the reputation of a scholar, and was also among the best. He passed the entrance examination. Of course, apart from Xiao Shitou's extraordinary talent, it is inseparable from Dean Yuan's careful cultivation of him.

What they didn't know was that Xiao Shitou's original IQ was only slightly better than his uncle Yu Bo's. In other words, he studied hard all his life, and at most he could be a scholar.

However, with Yu Xiaocao as a variable, everything became possible. Since Xiao Shishi was five years old, all he ate and drank was Lingshi water. For adults, Lingshi water at most has the effect of strengthening the body and curing dark diseases. But for children, it can promote the secondary development of the brain and the development of brain domains.

Ordinary people have only developed 3% to 5% of their brain domains. Even a great genius like Einstein has only developed and utilized about 10% of their brain domains. The little stone unknowingly surpassed the level of the great scientist of later generations. Not only the memory is super good, but also the comprehension ability is also improved. Coupled with his hard work, and his determination to contribute to the family like his second sister, it would be a ghost if his grades were not good!

Dean Yuan, who already regarded Xiaoshitou as his closed disciple, did not follow others' words to praise him, but said rationally: "Yu Ge is right, he just got admitted to a scholar, and he is the first student on a long road. One step, you must guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and don't make a fuss about "hurt Zhongyong". Yu Yu, you must look forward. While studying hard, you must also broaden your horizons and not be confined to books .Next year, the old man will go to Jiangnan to give lectures, so you should go too!"

When Xiao Shitou heard this, he was extremely excited. Jiangnan is a place that many literati yearn for. It is the birthplace of many literary schools in history, and it has a strong humanistic atmosphere. It is said that even old farmers who work in the fields can recite a few little poems.

Every year, Dean Yuan is invited to give lectures in several well-known academies and academies in the south of the Yangtze River. Only his personal disciples have the honor of being able to accompany him and listen to his teachings at any time.

Although Dean Yuan has taken good care of Xiao Shitou in the past two years and often prescribes small things for him, but he never dared to become Dean Yuan's personal disciple. The personal disciples of Mr. Dean will either become great Confucian scholars in a famous town, or become famous ministers who govern the country in the court, and their future is limitless.

Yu Xiaocao, who came in holding the fragrant Buddha jumping over the wall, saw her little brother stunned, quickly put down the jar and patted the back of his head, saying, "Are you so happy? You still don't want to kowtow to your master!"

Mr. Xiao Shitou also jokingly said: "Now that there is wine and tea, let's complete the ceremony of apprenticeship together!"

Dean Yuan's mind was attracted by the strong fragrance of Buddha Jumping over the Wall, he took Xiao Shitou's apprentice tea in a daze, and simply completed the ceremony of apprenticeship. After the banquet was over, he realized that he had an extra disciple who was less than nine years old, who was younger than all his disciples and grandchildren.

It has been more than 20 years since Dean Yuan took in his last apprentice. All his disciples, including himself, thought that he would never accept any more direct disciples in his life. Speaking of bringing small stones to lectures, it is because he loves talent and doesn't want to waste his talent. Who knew that after a meal, he would accept a young disciple in a muddleheaded manner. well! Food is misleading! !

However, that Buddha jumping over the wall is really delicious, even Dean Yuan, who claims to have tasted all the delicacies in Ming Dynasty, was deeply impressed.

The happiest thing is Yu Xiaocao besides the little stone. After Yangjun Wangyi's explanation, she realized how lucky it is for her younger brother to be able to worship Dean Yuan as his teacher and become his closed disciple. It can be said that as long as Xiaoshishi is not an elm lump, his future will definitely be smooth. Not only does he have the best learning resources, but he also has so many outstanding seniors who will be his contacts in the future! ! It can be said that it is almost certain that Lao Yu's family will be able to become an official in the future!

"Hey! Xiaojun Wang, thanks to you for initiating this banquet! I don't even know how to thank you!!" Yu Xiaocao thanked you from the bottom of her heart, her bright eyes shone like autumn water .

Zhu Junyang's heart skipped a beat when he saw those dazzling eyes, and couldn't help but look away. He never knew that human eyes can be so clear and clear, like the top glass jadeite, without a single blemish, as if it can shine into the depths of a person's heart and purify all filth.

"Cough...then, how do you thank Master?" Zhu Junyang was also happy for Xiao Shitou. With the little stone, there will definitely be a place for the Yu family in the court in the future.

Yu Xiaocao smiled and narrowed her eyes, like crescent moons: "I'll make Buddha jump over the wall for you every day, how about it?"

"Eat it every day? No matter how delicious the food is, I'm tired of it!!" Zhu Junyang expressed his dissatisfaction with this thank you gift.

Yu Xiaocao thought about it seriously with her head sideways, and found with some dismay that she really couldn't come up with any eye-catching thank you gifts in front of the youngest son of Prince Jing's mansion, the little county king whom the emperor valued.

Zhu Junyang saw the little girl biting her fingers and thinking about something, and the cat trapped by the thread, with a confused expression on her face. He smiled silently, patted her on the head, and said: "If you can't remember it, don't think about it. I am very merciful, and let you owe it first."

Yu Xiaocao didn't like to owe people anything the most, and said with a dissatisfied face: "Little County King, what do you want most. As long as I can do it!"

King Yang showed a proud expression, and said: "You took the initiative to give it, and the one you asked for, can it be the same? No sincerity!" After speaking, he strode away.

Yu Xiaocao bit the back like a little tail, and couldn't help saying: "You just say one! You don't need anything, and I'm not a roundworm in your stomach. I really don't know what you need!"

Zhu Junyang listened to her crunchy voice with a hint of coquettish coquettishness, and his heart felt itchy as if touched by a cat teaser. He stopped suddenly, turned around and looked at the little girl who was no bigger than his armpit.

Yu Xiaocao didn't expect the person in front to stop suddenly, and was still trotting forward with small steps, complaining in her heart: The long legs are amazing, walking so fast!

"Ouch!" It turned out to be a tragedy, the little girl plunged headlong into Zhu Junyang's arms, her nose was so sore from being hit by his hard abdominal muscles, she shed physical tears.

"You didn't say hello before you stopped, your nose was flattened by you!!" Yu Xiaocao protested loudly, wiping away tears. The nose wasn't that strong in the first place, if she bumped it twice more, wouldn't she have to face people with a flat nose for the rest of her life
