Chapter 139 Crepe Small Wontons (2)
The cloud-like thin skin can be separated with a sip. Although it’s like eating dry skin as a joke, it tastes different from eating dry skin. The bit of pork meat wrapped in the cloud-like skin is tender and springy, the skin is thin and tender, and the soup that is brought into the mouth with each bite is extremely delicious. , and lined with various side dishes such as seaweed, shrimp skin, egg skin, pickled vegetables, etc. in the soup, the taste is surprisingly rich.
Liu Yuan swallowed the small crepe wontons whole, and said vaguely in his mouth: "If the skin is so delicious, I can do it without meat!"
"Eat the skin dry, without that bit of pork meat, I'm afraid it won't taste right!" Wei Fu at the side ate a small crepe wonton and said with emotion, "Master Wen's bowl of small crepe wonton is wonderful because everything is just right. "
Wen Mingtang couldn't help but smile looking at the overcrowded public chef in front of him.
Only when there are no cases, this group of servants, temple ministers, and petty officials can sit here and eat the court food slowly.
When Si time was approaching, when the morning meal was over, Wen Mingtang handed the food box to Zhao You who came to get the food box, and confessed: "Take it back and boil the water and boil it. The broth is underneath."
Zhao You nodded "Yes", handed a dime to Wen Mingtang, turned and ran away.
Looked at the corner of silver in his palm for a moment, put the silver in his purse, and after returning the public kitchen to Master Sun, Wen Mingtang put the prepared lotus root noodles in the basket and left Dali Temple.
Last time, the lotus root sent by Liang Hongjin has been made into lotus root powder. When you want to eat it, you can wash it with hot water and stir it, and you can eat it.
For people like Liang Hongjin who are too lazy to start a fire, they like this kind of convenient food the most.
As usual, we met outside the Tongming Gate in the old place. Wen Mingtang waited for a while at the Tongming Gate, but before Liang Hongjin came, another unexpected visitor arrived.
The carriage stopped beside her, and Wen Mingtang took two steps back, coincidentally missing the face protruding from the curtain.
Wen Xiutang glared at her with a complicated and delicate bun on her head.
Wen Mingtang looked at the bun with several peonies in it, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Only Wen Xiutang's face can hold back the peony flowers on his head!
Annoyance flashed across Yanbi Peony's face. Looking at Wen Mingtang, he subconsciously touched his cheek.
For so many years, King Yu seldom slapped her face hard, but since meeting Wen Mingtang, she has been slapped several times.
Facing King Yu, Wen Xiutang didn't dare to say anything more, but after all, she was afraid that King Yu's subordinates would leave scars on her face if they didn't care enough, that would be bad!
She would not blame King Yu, nor did she dare to blame King Yu, all her resentment was directed at Wen Mingtang who was wearing a gray short shirt and robe in front of her.
"Why didn't you come when I asked you to come?" Wen Xiutang glanced at her, and said, "So you like working around the stove so much?"
Wen Mingtang heard the words, nodded and said: "Yes! I really like it!"
Wen Xiutang was about to continue lecturing, but suddenly got stuck, and stared at her annoyed and annoyed. After a pause, she opened her mouth, and just when she was about to find an excuse to ask her out, the girl with the basket on the opposite side touched her nose and said, "Why is my cousin asking me out?"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a burst of light laughter.
Wen Xiutang looked at Wen Mingtang who suddenly laughed out loud, frowned, and instinctively opened her mouth to reprimand, but Wen Mingtang, who was chuckling on the opposite side, had already spoken first.
"Cousin, I have acted with you for so long. I originally thought that when my conscience found out, my cousin would stop on her own initiative, but unexpectedly, she got worse and asked me out?" Wen Mingtang said casually.
The beautiful peony face on the opposite side suddenly turned pale, and subconsciously shook his head: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Wen Mingtang sneered: "I'm talking nonsense?" The girl raised her eyebrows after saying these three words, and pointed out a person, "King Yu."
As soon as the word "King Yu" came out, Wen Xiutang's face was stunned. When she met Wen Mingtang's half-smile eyes, she leaned back instinctively, and said, "I don't know what you're talking about?"
It's time like this, and the duck's mouth is still stubborn! Wen Mingtang sighed, and murmured: "I understand how Liu Yuan and the others felt when they met the murderer who refused to let go of all the evidence in front of him."
After saying this, without waiting for Wen Xiutang to find any ridiculously lame excuses, Wen Mingtang began to speak: "Cousin, smart people don't speak dirty words! I know everything you do. If you want to hear it, I will give it to you." You can break it up one by one and talk to you.”
"The first time you and I met at the Sushan shop was because you did it on purpose! I said that my cousin is dressed so richly, and at first glance she looks arrogant. If you eat Sushan, it's best not to go. I must also go to the most first-class shop in Chang'an City. Go to the Sushan shop on the side of the road, and go to the same shop with us cooks and handymen to eat Sushan, can my cousin really let go of this figure?"
So, in fact, from the very beginning when the two met, Wen Mingtang never believed her? Wen Xiutang's face was extremely ugly.
"Later, I went to Jiaofang specifically to find you, just to see what your plans were. You can't live a hard life and insist on entering Jiaofang, so forget it. After all, everyone has their own ambitions." Wen Mingtang said, "I It's not your mother, there's no need to force you which way to go. But after I came out of the teaching workshop that day, I was chased by murderers."
If she hadn't made preparations in the palace for a few years, she might have died by then.
Wen Xiutang moved her lips, and murmured to explain: "Didn't I say that? It has nothing to do with me."
It's really boring to open your eyes and talk nonsense at this time! Wen Mingtang shook his head, and said, "Cousin, after the two culprits were settled that day, I went back to Suyue Jiaofang, and I waited at the door specially, and saw with my own eyes that the servant girl by your side sent King Yu out. .”
Wen Xiutang still wanted to talk, but Wen Mingtang was too lazy to go around in circles with her anymore, and said straightforwardly: "The two cooks of Dali Temple went to the internal affairs office to inform people, and I already knew about the matter of bringing the words to King Yu. They planned If it doesn't work, you will appear immediately, and I know something is wrong with you."
Wen Xiutang looked at Wen Mingtang who was talking, her expression was extremely ugly.
Wen Mingtang changed the basket of lotus root noodles in his hand to another arm, and continued: "Also, you said...we are sisters deeply in love?"
Wen Mingtang reached out and brushed the broken hair hanging on his forehead behind his ears, and said softly, "Do you want me to tell you about my cousin who bullied and coaxed me when I was young, and robbed me of my beautiful clothes and pearls?"
This cousin has never looked like a sister since she was a child.
"When I first relied on my father's power, he would steal my things privately and bully me. Once my father fell, I didn't forget that you pushed and kicked me." Wen Mingtang looked at the ugly face in front of him. Wen Xiutang said, "Since I borrowed my father's power in the past, I should understand that one glory, all glory, one loss, all loss."
"I want to enjoy the glory and wealth, and I want to escape when I am in trouble. Even if my father allows it, the law of the great glory will not allow it!" Under the sun, the girl's smile was indifferent and alienated. Damn, I never imagined that after so many years, my cousin is still very selfish, and she still wants to use my life to please your benefactor? Let me tell you..."
"Go and dream your spring and autumn dream!" The girl grinned, showing her white teeth to Wen Xiutang, who was leaning against the wall of the carriage in shock, "Cousin, I have one life! I won't help you change it." You'll save a few slaps, bear it yourself! The left and right cousins are so thick-skinned, you should be able to bear it!
