Chapter 283 Boneless Chicken Fillet (2)
The gentle-looking middle-aged man smiled and said, "I'm not a buyer of the yamen."
Ji Caimai was stunned when he heard the words, and he looked at that person even more strangely: "How can you come to Zhuangzi to buy vegetables if you are not from the yamen? When did the high-level executives in Zhuangzi be so talkative? Will you come in?" Looking around, he began to find the shadow of a high-level official.
The man didn't care about Shangji's purchase, he just smiled and said, "I'm the cook of Jingyun Hou's mansion, and the Duke of the Kingdom will celebrate his birthday in a few days, so the housekeeper specially went to the House of Internal Affairs to invite a Zhang Ling." At this point, he paused, and continued to explain to Shang Ji Caimai's eyes, "Some time ago, someone bought sick poultry and livestock in the market, and the whole family fell ill after eating them. What about it? It would be terrible if something spoiled at the Duke’s birthday banquet! Because of the ingredients for this birthday banquet, in order to be on the safe side, the steward asked me to come to the Zhuangzi to buy them.”
The explanation is very detailed, the attitude is neither humble nor overbearing, and the cause and effect are also very clear.
Ji Caimai nodded and said, "So that's how it is!" Then, he turned to Wen Mingtang and said, "The supply of goods in the market is uneven. Although it may not be possible to find good ones, there are more bad ones! Some time ago There was even a smuggling of poultry and livestock infected with the epidemic, and the people who ate them followed suit."
Although he cooks in the public kitchen every day, because he doesn't buy ingredients, it is naturally impossible for Wen Mingtang to know about these things, but Ji Caimai, who buys ingredients, knows about it.
"Compared to the market where you can find good things by chance, the things on Zhuangzi are safer!" Ji Caimai said, "After all, they are imported things, so be careful!"
Wen Mingtang nodded, deeply convinced: "That's true!" While speaking, she subconsciously glanced at the gentle-looking cook on the opposite side, and after he announced the name of "Jingyunhou's Mansion", she couldn't help but look at him up each other.
Wen Mingtang has not completely forgotten the taste of the rather authentic bowl of hot and sour noodles that he ate not long ago. The person in front of him must be the cook who was hired by Mrs. Hou and is good at cooking dishes from Sichuan and Sichuan!
But...Wen Mingtang was a little surprised by the mandarin that was so fluent that he couldn't hear the accent of other places. He thought that the cook was a good mandarin mandarin, and he probably had some accents from Sichuan and Sichuan. Can't hear it.
Sensing Wen Mingtang's gaze, the cook smiled at her, turned to Ji Caimai and said, "I have a cold dish, which uses chicken heart and liver and other chicken offal. Chicken legs and other things can also be used for other dishes, but chicken breast Chicken breast meat is not what I'm good at, I thought it was either discarded or cooked and chewed casually, but I didn't expect you to be good at chicken breast meat dishes, which can prevent waste." Saying, wait Ji Caimai opened his mouth, and then took the initiative to say, "This is an unnecessary item, and the price can be negotiated."
I bought what I wanted at a very low price, avoiding waste. Ji Caimai was also very satisfied. The two parties negotiated the price and waited for the people in the village to slaughter chickens and ducks. Ji Caimai chatted with the other party stand up.
"I thought I was a new recruit from some yamen. I used to be the cook of the Jingyunhou Mansion. Speaking of which, we have a deep relationship!" Ji Caimai said.
The other party was obviously a little surprised when he heard the words: "I don't know which yamen Xiongtai belongs to?"
Ji Caimai glanced at the cook and said, "The public chef of Dali Temple."
As soon as these words came out, the other party was taken aback for a moment, and the expression on his face was dazed for a moment, and then turned into joy: "The second son of our family is in Dali Temple, and my wife often says that the chef of Dali Temple is very skilled. She has an appetite!"
The other party raised his eyebrows in surprise when he heard the words, and immediately cupped his fists at Wen Mingtang, saying, "I'm sorry, I've heard that Master Wen's Sichuan dishes are pretty good!"
Wen Mingtang saluted him, and said frankly: "To be honest, that bowl of hot and sour noodles entered my stomach, and it tasted very good. I have long wanted to see the master!"
It can also be regarded as the sympathy between the masters who rely on craftsmanship for a living! The other party glanced at Wen Mingtang a few more times, originally wanting to chat with Wen Mingtang about the customs and customs of Sichuan and Sichuan, but after learning that Wen Mingtang had never been to Sichuan and Sichuan, he just stayed in the palace and learned this skill by accident. A little disappointed, but still made a verbal "date" with Wen Mingtang and Ji Caimai for "next time", and bid farewell to them after leaving Zhuangzi.
Duke Yasukuni’s birthday banquet was full of people, and I heard that the scene was very lively, and the dignitaries who were rarely seen on weekdays made the eyes of the people who squatted outside the Duke’s mansion to watch the excitement that day dazzled!
The case of the "Beauty Lantern" was handed over to Zhao Mengzhuo to close it, so they didn't need to deal with it. Lin Fei, the second grandson of Duke Jing, had no case, so he naturally took a leave of absence and accompanied Jing Yunhou to entertain the distinguished guests.
The case just came to an end, and Liu Yuan and others, who were free, were "fishing" in the yamen of Dali Temple. They imagined that Shangfeng, who usually looked solemn, was accompanying Jing Yunhou at this time, and greeted him with a smile on his face. Guests, everyone shivered subconsciously. It was really hard to imagine Lin Fei welcoming the guests with a smile on his face!
Although they couldn't see the grand occasion of the Yasukuni Mansion's birthday banquet, the people in Dali Temple didn't feel regretful at all. They happily ate the three meals provided by the Dali Temple's official chef, catching up on the book that they hadn't read before, and holding a piece of paper in their hands. The stick at the end of the bamboo stick is the new snack served by the chef of Dali Temple today-boneless chicken fillet!
There was a long queue outside the public kitchen of Dali Temple in the afternoon.
The smell of oil, meat and unique spices permeates the air. As soon as people step into the range of this fragrance, they subconsciously take a deep breath, which can no longer be ignored.
"It smells so good!" A few passers-by took a deep breath intoxicated, stopped, and looked at the public kitchen involuntarily, wanting to put the snacks that the public kitchen was making in their pockets. , But... Seeing the crowd of students lined up in front of them is a bit daunting.
"What time is it?" Swallowing, one of the clerks looked at the sundial by the side of the road, and raised his voice, "It's time for class! Don't you worry about Mr. saying that you can buy snacks here if you don't have class?"
The intention of this little official is too obvious!
Semi-old children are not easy to cheat.
Hearing this, the student who turned his head squinted at Xiaoli, with an expression of "I can understand your intentions", snorted coldly, and said: "Dr. Yu who is in class today also likes the snacks made by Master Wen very much." , let me wait to help him bring a copy!"
As soon as the words fell, another student on the side joined in and said: "Dr. Yu's class was randomly checked and recited articles for half an hour at the beginning. Today, the students who were randomly selected to recite are the students from the next class who are reciting at this time! They also asked me to wait Bring some snacks."
Guozijian’s teaching doctors are either strict or loose, and Dr. Yu obviously belongs to the latter.
The students refused to give way. The two little officials looked up at the long queue, but fortunately the line was long, but the movement was not slow. After thinking about it for a while, they resigned themselves to their fate at the end of the line, waiting for the name "Boneless Chicken" Willow" snacks.
