The Dreamer in the Spring Boudoir

Chapter 66: Wine and winter

Views:

Ning Errong's impression of barbecue is to grill chicken, duck and fish over the fire, but Sang Yu said that he needed fine barbed wire and silver charcoal.

Anyway, their family is here as a guest, so Ning Errong didn't bother to ask for anything that Steward Qian wanted, and ordered Ji Man to fetch all the things he wanted.

The smell of winter is stronger, and at night, the cold wind howls outside, making people reluctant to go out, but Ji Man insists, "Go to the gazebo in the yard to bake."

"Why, wouldn't it be nice to stay warm inside the house?" Ning Errong frowned and glanced at the weather outside, reluctantly.

"There is a charcoal fire when making barbecue, what are you afraid of?" Ji Man rolled his eyes and said, "Barbecue is only delicious when eaten in a cold environment, heavy oil and spicy, with cumin powder on the top Sprinkle it, not to mention how delicious it is."

Ning Errong swallowed his saliva, struggling a little in his eyes: "It's not the same to eat it in the house after it's baked..."

"Do you understand what is hard-earned to be precious?" Ji Man said seriously: "If you let others prepare it and deliver it to you, then there is nothing delicious."

The spoiled little princess was silent for a long time, and finally said reluctantly: "Okay."

Bai Zhi helped people arrange the barbecue equipment in the gazebo, and by the way, asked people to add two more braziers, which is better than nothing.

Ji Man looked around, no one came to Nanyuan at this dinner time, she also got the old lady's consent to come here, she was not afraid of causing any trouble, so she tied up her cuffs, and ordered the alfalfa next to her to help cut the meat and vegetables String them up, and arrange the seasonings in the bottles and jars.

After a while, the charcoal fire ignited, and Jiman put the meat skewers on the roasting oil first, sprinkled salt and spices, spread oil and cumin, and the aroma wafted out after a while.

Ning Errong sat on the side and looked at Ji Man, holding her hand in the rabbit fur and beating her to death, but she refused to take it out, but the fragrance was so tempting, and the meat skewers sizzled, she couldn't help but take a deep breath .

"Is it delicious? People in our place love to eat this no matter in winter or summer. Drinking beer and hang out with friends at the roadside stall, it tastes so good." Ji Man was thinking about it while grilling, and couldn't help saying that he missed it. Mouth.

"Where is your place?" Ning Errong looked at her curiously: "Isn't your home from the capital?"

It seems that there is no such thing in Beijing, what is beer

Ji Man consciously made a slip of the tongue, and quickly handed her the freshly grilled meat skewers: "Leave that alone, do you want to try it?"

The large pieces of mutton, beef, and pork that are brought here from the kitchen are of good quality, and they are even fatter but not greasy when roasted. When the oil dries up, the fat remains, and it tastes delicious after a bite.

Ning Errong ate very deliciously, and finished eating a bunch of them in a short while, and continued to look at her eagerly.

"Come here and help bake, what can I do if I don't do it myself." Ji Man snorted, and handed her a cotton cover: "I use this to wrap my distressed hands. I just ate meat, so I roasted some vegetables to relieve my greasy."

Errong really wanted to say, why is she tired, she still wants to eat meat... But Ji Man had already put the leeks in her hands, so she had no choice but to follow her example, put the vegetables on the barbed wire, brush the oil, brush them seasoning.

The scent wafted far away, and Ning Mingjie had just finished eating and was about to go for a walk in the garden, when he smelled this scent, he came all the way to the gazebo.

"What is this doing?"

Seeing the two girls in the gazebo roasting in full swing, the surrounding servants are holding a bunch of things in their hands, and the aroma is even more tempting to get close to.

"Brother." Ning Errong turned around to see him, and quickly said as if showing off: "I told you that I can't cook, so come and taste it, I baked this."

Passing a bunch of mutton over, Ning Mingjie looked at the dark and fragrant thing in front of him, very hesitant. Ji Man next to him hurriedly handed over another skewer, and said, "Eat this one first, Er Rong failed to roast that one."

"Where did it fail? Is it a bit dark!" Ning Errong was not convinced, took a bite by himself, and smacked his mouth in a disfigured way: "It's much more delicious than the ones made in the kitchen."

Su Jing held the greasy meat skewers and handed them to him. Ning Mingjie was stunned, and looked up at the person in front of him. Bright red lips, a light mole on the tip of the brow, who is it if it's not Nie Sangyu

Why is she here? And make kebabs

Seeing that he had picked up the barbecue, Ji Man didn't say anything, just lowered his head and continued to roast. It took a while to react, huh? Why is Ning Mingjie here

Looking up at him, the latter was quietly eating mutton skewers, half of his face under the silver mask was expressionless, but his eyes were sparkling, as if he liked the taste very much.

At this time today, according to the original book, shouldn't this person go to the garden, meet the heroine by chance, and then find that the heroine is very beautiful, so he has a crush on it? Why did you come here to eat mutton skewers

Sensing Ji Man's gaze, Ning Mingjie turned his head and smiled at her: "I never thought you would have this hand."

This smile is very beautiful, much prettier than Ning Yuxuan's unsophisticated smile, Ji Man was slightly taken aback, and finally realized something was wrong.

Now she is not a girl who has not left the court, but has married Mo Yuhou. Although she is only a concubine, it is not very good to get along with a strange man like this, right

Although I don't quite understand the rules of this era, but I consciously told her that it's better to leave early.

"Does Sang Yu still remember my brother?" Er Rong said while gnawing on the meat skewers: "You guys met each other when you were very young, although it was only once at a palace banquet, Sang Yu also said that my brother is actually It looks more like a piece of jade than Mo Yuhou."

It happened ten years ago, and Nie Sangyu remembered it before, and mentioned it to Ning Errong. Ji Man didn't have such an impression at all. Looking at Ning Mingjie's blank expression, he probably didn't have any impression either.

"We are all relatives, let's have a meat skewer together." Ning Errong patted the stool on one side generously, and Ning Mingjie naturally sat down, how tired he was standing.

Ji Man looked at his hands and said with a smile: "Why don't you ask the servants to bake it for you first, I'm too dirty, I'd better go back and wash my hands."

Ning Mingjie knew that she meant to avoid suspicion, and just as he was about to nod, Ning Errong said carelessly: "How far to go back, I will ask Baizhi to fetch water for you! Good sister, bake me two more skewers Well, your roast is the best."

Ji Man didn't know whether to laugh or cry, this girl didn't know what avoiding suspicion was at all, and she thought she was just a group of minors playing carefree.

When she acted like a baby, it was really hard for her to leave, so she had to ask Clover to stand by, so everyone could see her. Then go on to grill the kebabs for the little ancestor.

"They all said that you have changed a lot, but that's true." Ning Errong kept talking while eating, "In the past, you only had your cousin in your eyes, so how could you have the time to do these things?"

Ji Man smiled and said nothing, roasted the meat and vegetables, put them on small plates and handed them to the two brothers and sisters.

Ning Mingjie had eaten, so he wasn't very hungry, but the glutton in his stomach was aroused, so he was not polite when he took it, and asked someone to get some good wine.

The cold wind was howling, and the courtyard was naturally not as warm as the house, but Ning Errong was so hot that he stuck out his tongue, and it was useless to hold his hands. Ning Mingjie felt that it was very pleasant to drink and eat barbecue in the cold wind. Nie Sangyu Making the meat into such small pieces is much more delicious than roasting the whole one.

So after eating and drinking enough, Ning Mingjie felt that Sang Yu was actually a very nice woman, at least the barbecue she cooked was delicious.

The plot was quietly changed. Ning Mingjie didn't go to the garden to meet the heroine. What caught his eyes first was a pair of slender hands deftly flipping the barbecue.

Ji Man stayed safely in the house for two days, while Mu Shuiqing survived the wind-cold symptoms, her high fever was no longer present, and she could get out of bed and walk around, which is considered to have passed the difficulty.

No one in the house talked about Ji Man's barbecue with the two brothers and sisters in Jing Wenhou's house that day, and even the old lady heard Ning Errong mention it, and wanted her to do it again.

However, Ji Man does not recommend the old lady to eat this. After all, she is getting old and it is not good for her health. The old lady only ate it once, and occasionally she couldn't forget it, so she asked the kitchen to make some barbecue again.

It's just that they were not familiar with Ning Mingjie at first, but when they saw him recently, they seemed to be smiling at her. Ji Man felt that this man was too easy to bribe, and he got acquainted after a barbecue.

Shui Niangzi went to the mansion to pay the bill this month, and brought good news to Ji Man, saying that the palace wanted cream as an imperial offering. This is great news. Ji Man made up his mind and wrote down the method of making the cream and gave it to Shui Niangzi, asking her to secretly find a worker to make it and give her full responsibility. In this way, the output is increased, and it is also convenient for the cream to go out of the capital and go to the whole country.

Clover looked at the large stack of banknotes brought by Mrs. Shui, and took a deep breath: "Master!"

This month's business is enough for them to have enough food and clothing for several years.

"Follow me, master, and you will be very rich, right?" Ji Man smiled and was very satisfied. She stretched out her hand and took out a fifty-two silver note, and put it in Clover's arms generously: "Go and buy yourself two Good outfit, your dowry master will also save it for you, follow me from now on, and I will give you good food and spicy food."

Clover held the bank note in a daze for a long time, and suddenly his eyes turned red.

"Hey, please don't cry, or I'll get the money back." Ji Manhu frightened her with a frowning face, but didn't want Clover to kneel down and kowtow to her suddenly: "Master's kindness, I will definitely remember it in my heart." , I won't... I won't betray you again."

Ji Man didn't go into it carefully when he expressed his loyalty. He helped him up with a smile and said, "Look at you, isn't it only fifty taels of silver? It's like being touched. I heard that Dr. Li's mother is seriously ill. , if you want to see it, how about I give you a day off to see it?"

"He...his mother, what's the matter with the servants, I need the servants to see what I do!" Clover stomped anxiously, blushing, turned and ran outside.

Ji Man was amused, how could she not know the little girl's thoughts

Locking the rest of the bank notes at the bottom of the closet, Ji Man took a deep breath, feeling that the good days are not far away!
