"Try what?" Su Yuewei tilted her head and looked at him.
Yuan Suijun changed the subject, "It's nothing. I saw some paints given by His Majesty. You may be interested. You can use them for painting."
Su Yueling's attention was indeed diverted, "Huh? Really?"
When she was kneeling at that time, all she could think about was feeling aggrieved, and she had no intention of paying attention to what the saint had given her.
"Why don't we go to the warehouse and take a look? I think those pearls are of excellent quality and are suitable for your hair and facial hair."
Instead of letting Su Yueling think about her knees, it's better to find something for her so that she doesn't have to think about it. Now Yuan Suijun has mastered this technique proficiently.
The quality of the Dongzhu prepared by the royal family is naturally good. You can't see it on the market, let alone buy it. Each one is round and huge, of average size, exuding a noble brilliance. Dongzhu has always been produced in rare quantities and is very rare.
It was precious and was generally enjoyed by the royal family. It was not available on the market. Su Yueling was able to get two boxes, which showed that the emperor was very satisfied with her.
When Su Yueling saw these two boxes of Dongzhu, she thought of her modern pearl curtain.
She said: "It's a pity that the number of these beads is too small, not enough to string them together into a curtain."
Yuan Suijun's eyelids twitched. This kind of Dongzhu is usually used as a headdress or as an ornament inlaid on clothing. Su Yueling actually wanted to use it to string curtains. This is an act that cannot be described as a waste of natural resources. These two boxes
The Dongzhu is worth only two thousand taels. Apart from the houses and shops in the capital, it is the most expensive.
He said: "This Dongzhu is hard-won."
Then I talked to Su Yueling about how difficult it is and how little the annual output is. At the time of the late emperor, the output of dongzhu was getting less and less. In order to avoid mining them all, he issued an imperial edict that the number collected every year should not exceed 2,000.
Su Yueling really didn't know this before, she was thinking of another thing.
"Those pearl divers are very dangerous."
After all, if they want to mine pearls, they have to dive into the sea. In this era, if they are not careful, they may lose their lives.
Su Yuelington suddenly lost interest in Dongzhu. She liked to enjoy it, but she didn't want this enjoyment to be based on other people's blood and sweat.
She recalled, "I remember that pearls can also be cultured." But she didn't know how to culture them specifically. She was not an encyclopedia, so it was impossible for her to know everything.
"Forget it, I will be able to cultivate pearls in the future. Then I will definitely use the best pearls to string the beaded curtain."
Then visit the mall every day to see if you can figure out how to cultivate pearls.
Su Yueling hinted at the 250 system.
【I want pearl curtains! You know!】
The system said it didn't want to understand. It couldn't open a backdoor for Su Yueling. At most, it could only secretly adjust the probabilities when it saw related products entering the card pool, so that which ones Su Yueling liked had a greater chance of appearing on the shelf.
a little.
…
Geng Hai and other guards took a hot bath at Yuan's house and washed their bodies and hair together. The fatigue of the past few days was washed away by the hot water, and they felt extremely comfortable.
After they cleaned up and walked out, the servants of the Yuan family began to bring food to them.
As the emperor's chamberlain, Geng Hai received good treatment in the palace. He was accustomed to the skills of the imperial chefs, so he originally had no hope in the cooking skills of the Yuan family's cooks.
As a result, the first thing served was Buddha Jumping Over the Wall.
Sister-in-law Yang said: "You adults, let's drink some soup first to satisfy our stomachs."
Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, this dish is said to be a dish that the eminent monks would abandon their Buddhist teachings and jump to the other side of the wall after hearing it. Sister-in-law Yang did not know how many times she experimented in order to make a taste that satisfied Su Yueling, and she felt distressed by the waste of precious ingredients.
Enough.
Sister-in-law Yang opened the lid, and the overbearing fragrance made people swallow their saliva.
Geng Hai found that he, who had tasted all kinds of delicacies, turned into a bumpkin in front of this dish.
"What's this?"
Sister-in-law Yang introduced: "This is the dish of Buddha Jumping over the Wall, which has been simmered for three hours."
This Buddha Jumps Over the Wall was made by Su Yueling because she wanted to eat it today and asked the kitchen to make it. As a result, Angel and Magistrate Yao are here now, so naturally they have to serve them well. However, Sister-in-law Yang has long kept Su Yueling's share. No one can lose.
Thank you madam.
Geng Hai took the spoon and took a spoonful and put it into his mouth. Then he was conquered by the extremely delicious and soft texture. There were many flavors but not messy at all. Instead, they blended together perfectly.
,You have me I have you.
No wonder Buddha is called to jump over the wall.
With this thing, he no longer wants to be a Buddha.
Geng Hai originally thought of eating a few bites for his face, but unknowingly, he finished the whole bowl, and his stomach became extremely docile.
Others saw his performance and tasted it one after another, and then they couldn't stop at all.
Next, one dish after another was served by the servants of the Yuan family.
Braised pork, shrimp dumplings, rouge goose breast, eight-treasure fat duck, fish ball soup...many of them were originally prepared for the masters as dinner, but now they are brought out first.
Every dish was something Geng Hai had never tasted before. Even with his sophisticated taste, he had to admit that these dishes were delicious. Some of the combinations surprised him - it turned out that he could still do this.
As the emperor's chamberlain, he often had to taste dishes for the emperor. It could be said that he had tasted all kinds of delicacies, but in the Yuan family, he became a country bumpkin.
I ate one dish and was amazed by each one. I just felt that every dish was indescribably good.
Not to mention how proud Sister-in-law Yang is, look! Even the nobles in the capital like her cooking. However, Sister-in-law Yang is very self-aware and knows that her cooking skills are definitely not as good as those of the chefs. If it hadn’t been for a wife to come up with it
With recipes and regular practice, how could she improve so quickly?
This meal satisfied Geng Hai and the other guards.
Geng Hai couldn't help but sigh to Yao Zhixian, "I didn't expect that the Yuan family's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon would have such a great chef."
Yao Zhixian guessed a little bit, shook his head and said: "The real chef is our Weiguo Xiangjun."
"These dishes must have been directed by her."
In the beginning, Su Yueling made money by selling cookbooks. Fulailou became the most popular restaurant in Guangning County because of those recipes. Now even he has to book a table several days in advance.
Geng Hai said with emotion: "To be able to come up with so many novel and delicious dishes, Mr. Wei Guoxiang is really smart and smart."
It's a pity that you can't eat these if you leave Guangning County.
Prescriptions like this are the secret knowledge of each family. Those aristocratic families are eager to hide these tightly and pass them down from generation to generation to show their heritage. Therefore, no matter how much he likes it, Geng Hai will not ask for the prescription.
Sister-in-law Yang saw his regretful expression in her eyes and turned around to tell Su Yueling.
Because they came to the house, Su Yueling was impatient to deal with strangers, so she had dinner in her yard.
Su Yueling was indifferent to this, "Do they like food so much?"
"Then give them the recipe."
Anyway, she is not short of money from selling cookbooks now. Just think of it as the errand expenses paid by Geng Hai and others for traveling all the way to deliver rewards.
