Chapter 254 Hoof Flower Soup (3)
Looking down at the list of dignitaries, Lin Fei, who had never spoken until now, slowly said: "It is true that Du Lingmou cannot be told about this!"
Today's Zhongshuling Du Lingmou is really good, but...
"In the past, he was overwhelmed by Wen Xuance everywhere, so he turned against him! After Wen Xuance's accident, he immediately wrote a letter stating that he would be severely punished!" Lin Fei frowned when he said this.
Of course, for Wen Xuance’s crime, whether he is severely punished or not, the difference is not that big. It doesn’t make much difference whether Du Lingmou files a letter or not.
But this person's closeness and distance are too clear, the relatives are too nice, and even turn a blind eye to connivance;
"Wen Xuance committed a crime, and the entire Wen family was in trouble. Master Wen was still a child when he entered the palace," Lin Fei said, "I heard that he even specially instructed people in Yeting to make things difficult for Master Wen!"
The entire Wen family is already like this, but they don’t even let go of a child they haven’t even met. Du Lingmou really has a tendency to "kill all" those who are alienated and those who make friends with each other!
Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu didn't know about it yet, and they couldn't help but fell silent when they heard the words.
"You don't need to tell Lord Zhao about this!" Lin Fei clicked on the list of dignitaries involved, and said, "I'm going to the palace to see the Holy Majesty right now!"
Seeing this, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with the evening food, so I can only let Zhao You run for a while! Lin Fei was also a little curious about how to make the dolphin hooves.
During the evening meal, the dolphin hoof that made everyone in Dali Temple nervous all afternoon finally met with everyone.
Different from the usual way of processing pork meat—braised in soy sauce—what everyone saw when they ate at dusk was milky white thick soup boiled in a clay casserole.
The cut pig’s hoof is exposed in the thick soup. The skin of the pig is white and attractive. Due to the long cooking, there are already some signs of bone loss, and it sinks and floats in the soup noodles like blooming flying flowers.
"No wonder it's called hoof flower soup!" When Liu Yuan came over, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion when he saw the neatly placed casserole on the table.
The hooves that I saw in the afternoon were still a bit scary, and now they have changed their appearance and are lying quietly in the casserole. The surface of the milky white hoof flower soup is also dotted with fresh and tender green onions. With one glance, he swallowed immediately, and the appetite in his heart was drawn out.
At that time, everyone who said "I dare not eat" and "I can't eat it when I think of those hooves" has already unknowingly lined up a long queue, waiting to get food!
Food is only open in the evening, so there are naturally no people at the takeaway stalls at this time!
Ji Caimai walked to the front of the stage with her hands behind her back, and saw that the servant in the first line was going to sit down to eat at the food table after receiving the evening food, and immediately called out to him: "Didn't you just avoid it when you came to pick up milk tea in the afternoon?" Is it too late?"
He is not old enough to forget what happened in the afternoon in a blink of an eye, isn't this the well-known guard who shivered in fright, turned his head and ran, and then passed on the story of eating dolphin hooves at night what?
In the afternoon, he ran faster than anyone else, but now he is in the first place.
The guard who was stopped by Ji Caimai laughed twice, and hurriedly said: "My fault, my fault! Ji Caimai, please forgive me!"
"It hurts!"
Ji Caimai just gave up, and walked to the back of the takeaway stall with his hands behind his back and sat down.
…
The guard in that room who had confessed his mistake was afraid of being caught by Ji Caimai again, so he quickly picked up the plate and sat down to eat at the food table after admitting his mistake.
The thick hoof flower soup was served with a small dish of sauce, which was supposed to be made by Master Wen himself, and there was a thin layer of oily chili on top.
After sitting down, the guard hurriedly picked up a spoon to scoop up a spoonful of soup. The soup in the mouth was rich and delicious, and there was a slight aroma of pepper in it. A mouthful of warm soup entered his stomach, and immediately there was a rush of it. The warmth dispelled the cold air brought in from outside.
Sure enough, the colder it is, the more suitable it is to eat soup and water.
After several sips of the delicious soup, the guard put down the spoon, picked up the chopsticks, and was about to pick up the hoof flowers in the soup when he heard someone's emotional voice not far away.
"What a hoof to bully Frost Saixue!"
This sentence almost made people spit out the soup in their mouths! The sound of choking coughs rang out one after another, and everyone looked at Liu Yuan who was holding a hoof flower and expressing emotion.
As if he didn’t see the eyes of everyone, Liu Yuan lowered his head and opened his mouth to bite the hoof flower caught on the chopsticks. Looking at the milky white thick soup, he could guess that the hoof flower here must not be firewood.
The fact is indeed the case. The moment the teeth bite the skin of the hoof flower, you can feel the soft and tender taste: soft but not rotten, smooth and refreshing. When chewing lightly, the soft and smooth taste is particularly meticulous. It looks like fat meat, but it is completely different from the greasy taste of ordinary fat meat. It is mostly delicate, even if you just eat it with the delicious thick soup, you will not feel tired! There is still a little lean meat near the bone, but it is completely rotten at this time, and the hoof bone and flesh can be separated with a light pull.
Liu Yuan, who had finished eating a piece of hoof flower, picked up another piece, this time dipping it in the sauce made by Wen Mingtang: the sauce added a hint of sour and spicy sauce to the already delicious hoof flower, so it’s easy to eat when you’re empty Because of the hot and sour sauce, the hoof flower that doesn't feel greasy tastes a little more appetizing, and the more you eat, the more you can't stop!
After eating a few hoof flowers one after another, Liu Yuan caught a glimpse of the snow-white thing called white kidney beans in the thick soup. Temporarily suppressing the urge to continue gnawing hoof flowers, Liu Yuan scooped up a spoonful of the soup and beans and put it in his mouth. The beans in his mouth were soft and delicate like cotton yarn, with a wonderful taste.
Ji Caimai, who was dialing the abacus at the back of the takeaway stall, looked at the officials and servants who were eating dinner in the hall, and a smile appeared on his face: After working for so many days, it's nice to be able to sit down and eat dinner quietly. It makes people feel very warm when they look at it!
Thinking like this, Wen Mingtang put the casserole wrapped in a thick cloth and a bowl of red sauce into the food box behind the counter, and handed it to Zhao You who came.
Zhao You travels fast, and he does a lot of errands on weekdays. In the past few days, he sent most of Mr. Xun's evening meals, but Mr. Xun also doesn't eat spicy food very much. At first glance, the bowl of red sauce was not given to Mr. Xun. It's for... Lin Shaoqing.
Today, Liu Yuan, Bai Zhu and the others have come to have dinner, what is Lin Shaoqing up to? Why didn't you come?
Lin Shaoqing, who was missed by Ji Caimai, returned to the Jingyunhou Mansion at this time, handed over the thick cloak to the concierge, and walked into the mansion.
Since Lin Fei entered the Yamen of Dali Temple, it is not surprising that he comes back late every day, but it is not common to come back from the palace!
So the one who came to look for Lin Fei this time was not the usual Mrs. Hou, but Jing Yunhou himself!
