However, the subsequent Qionglin Banquet is essential.
However, it will be His Majesty and a number of selected candidates who will go there.
But who can say for sure, Xiao Nianzhi will have no chance to go?
But on second thought...
My brothers didn't pass the exam either, so they just didn't join in the fun.
Just tonight, do you want to go back to Xiao Mansion?
In a moment of embarrassment, the beef has already been braised.
Xiao Nianzhi and others worked together to tear the beef into thin shreds.
If you want to eat Dengying Shredded Beef, this procedure is essential.
Traditional Dengying beef relies on marinating, air-drying, and low-temperature baking.
The shredded beef made by Xiao Nianzhi is fried directly.
The fried flavor is more intense.
When the aroma of fried meat wafts out...
Well, many people in the yamen couldn't help but quietly moved closer here.
Originally, a few people wanted to eat in a low-key manner, but now colleagues from the yamen gathered around...
More wolves but less meat!
It's just that we are decent people after all, and it's not easy to just take advantage of them.
Moreover, what people eat is still rare beef.
Just, I'm very sorry.
or……
Wait another day?
Although they retreated quietly in embarrassment, the cats were in various corners, gently sniffing the scent.
However, Supervisor Li and the others were embarrassed and ate alone.
In particular, Supervisor Li's deputy rank is higher, and Xiao Nianzhi is even higher than him.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that it would be bad not to share.
Especially when shredded chili peppers and peppercorns are put into the pot together, the aroma bursts out at that moment, as well as the pungent spiciness. Although it makes people flinch, more often than not, they unconsciously want to stay.
, I want to continue to smell it.
After that, fry the delicious shredded beef and stir-fry together.
I always feel that the rich aroma seems to reach its peak in an instant, and then overwhelming, attacking every corner and everyone's olfactory nerves.
The aroma of meat is already attractive, and coupled with the strong spiciness and the assistance of Sichuan peppercorns, the aroma is wrapped in a slight white mist and rolled farther away.
Now that the temperature is slowly rising, the fragrance can already drift to farther places than in winter.
Therefore, even the clerk working in the front could smell the aroma of meat.
But when I thought about it carefully, I realized that it was the big guys at the back who were looking for food. Everyone took a break and rubbed their stomachs, thinking about what to eat for lunch.
I used to eat vegetarian noodles, how about adding a piece of meat today?
But, meat is expensive!
Life is hard.
The two pieces of beef shank that Deputy Supervisor Li brought over were finally fried into a large plate of fragrant and spicy shredded beef.
The rich aroma has already reached everyone's nose before they even taste it, testing their willpower.
It’s just one dish, and it’s definitely not enough for several people.
Cong Xiangwu had already bought steamed buns and came back with a wink.
Cut the steamed buns in half, then add some shredded beef...
Then pop it into your mouth!
hiss!
Just thinking about it makes me drool a little uncontrollably.
Cong Xiangwu bought steamed buns, Xu En bought two side dishes on the street in front, and Xiao Nianzhi quickly stir-fried a dish of fried pork with mushrooms.
I also made a winter melon and egg soup.
Four dishes and one soup are definitely enough for the four of them.
Because the quantity is large enough.
But if we add other people, I'm afraid it won't be enough.
However, everyone is too embarrassed to eat free rice.
So one person went to buy some cooked food, and the other person went to buy some snacks.
There were eight people at the last table, and there were a lot of dishes.
But the most tempting thing is the shredded beef!
One is that the beef is precious, the other is that the taste is so fragrant,
The whole table of dishes is not as overpowering as its fragrance!
When freshly fried, the shredded beef is slightly crispy.
But after stir-frying again, it became softer with the hot oil and high temperature.
However, the texture after deep-frying is still there even if it is re-fried.
At this time, he picked up a chopstick and put it into his mouth gently.
The first feeling when my tongue touches it is...
hot!
Next comes hemp.
Crispy and attractive spicy taste, coupled with the fresh aroma of beef.
After one bite, the spiciness is enough and the aroma is tempting.
Even after taking it into your stomach, you will still be able to remember it.
Between the lips and teeth, even after three or two bites of the steamed buns, there is still a lingering fragrance.
The tip of the tongue is lightly hooked, and after encountering that bit of fragrance, people will look forward to the next bite even more.
However, the reality is still that there are more wolves and less meat!
Even though, they also bought other meat and vegetables.
However, compared with the shredded beef weaved by Xiao Nian, it is still inferior.
Everyone's eyes are still fixed on this.
It's just that low-ranking officials are too embarrassed to compete with Xiao Nianzhi and Deputy Supervisor Li, so they have to give in a little bit. They can just satisfy their greed.
Another dish cooked by Xiao Nianzhi tastes equally good.
So, it’s okay to eat this.
But, that flavor of shredded beef...
hiss!
Can't think about it anymore!
Thinking about it again makes me salivate on the steamed buns!
The lunch was lively.
In the afternoon, Xiao Nianzhi sat there and fell asleep.
After spending a whole day touching the fish, Yan Xingxuan was already waiting for him at the door.
Yan Xingxuan has nothing to do recently, so he has relatively more free time.
He felt that it would be good to come over and think about it when he was free and doing daily business.
He enjoyed this kind of ordinary, yet warm time.
I just wish that time would always be so kind to him.
On the way back, Yan Xingxuan rode a horse and walked beside Xiao Nian's carriage. Passing by a road with few people, the two of them would whisper.
Xiao Nianzhi talked about today's shredded beef, and said that if they encounter beef in the future, they can also try the real Dengying beef.
Xiao Nianzhi also said that in fact, in addition to the cattle used for farming, there are other types of cattle, some of which are not suitable for farming. Killing them for meat will not affect anything.
However, the breeding period of cattle is too long, and the cost of raising one is really high.
Therefore, ordinary people will not raise these easily.
Bison are not that easy to tame.
…
The two of them talked to each other about what happened today. Xiao Nianzhi also talked about the two brothers of the Xiao family who failed to pass the exam.
Although the two brothers said before that they might not be able to win, they were somewhat modest.
However, if you really fail to make the list, you will still feel a little bit disappointed, right?
While talking, Xiao Nianzhi couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Do you think I should go and see the two brothers?"
At this time, whether to go or not is somewhat sensitive.
Yan Xingxuan felt that the family did not need to worry about this.
Yan Xingxuan does not think that the Xiao brothers are stingy people.
After thinking about it, he said in a deep voice: "The two brothers of the Xiao family are both good-looking and talented, and their ability to withstand pressure is also top-notch. They will only be happy if you go."
