Chapter 163 Find Zhong Jing
So, the four of them entered the mountain together, and then secretly detoured to Suixi County.
Yu Xiaofang is the happiest one. In the past, he could only collect herbs honestly and genuinely enter the mountains in Gaolian County, but since he went to Hainan Island to enter the mountains, his whole pattern has opened up. It became brighter.
Now I’m going to Suixi County. Although it’s a neighboring county, it’s a place I’ve never been to. The mountains there are definitely different from those in Yancun. Maybe I can find something good?
For Shu Yan, this was also the first time she went out after coming to Yancun. She was also so excited that she couldn't help opening the corner of the curtain to look out curiously when she was in the carriage, chatting with Zhao Liya all the way.
Zhao Liya laughed and said that it would be better for everyone to go to Hainan Island together in the future. Shu Yan was happier and nodded without hesitation to express her great yearning.
Although it took a little longer than normal to go to Suixi County, the party still arrived at the garrison camp around four o'clock in the afternoon.
After notifying his name, Zhong Ming quickly brought someone out to greet him in person.
"It will take half an hour for our general to come back after going to the school grounds for inspection. Please don't blame me! Ms. Zhao, you are finally here. The general has been talking a lot these days. He said yesterday that if the girl doesn't come again, he will send someone Go pick it up."
Zhao Liya smiled and said: "Of course I remember this. Didn't this come as soon as I finished my work? Don't worry, it won't miss the season."
Zhong Ming nodded again and again: "We can rest assured that Miss Zhao is here!"
Zhong Jing had asked someone to prepare a residence for them, and Zhong Ming directly led them there.
It was a small independent courtyard with quiet surroundings and lush flowers and trees. Rhododendrons, roses, and magnolias were in full bloom. There were also a few clumps of cannas standing gracefully. The decorations were interesting, vivid and bright, which made the four of them subconsciously relax a bit. Somewhat tense because of the preconceived impression of the barracks.
Although the yard is small, it has all internal organs, and there are kitchens in the east and west rooms, enough for the four of them to live in.
Zhao Liya, Zhong Jing, and Zhong Ming are already very familiar with each other, and they are not as reserved as before, so they asked with a smile if they could walk freely around here? She wants to go out for a walk.
Zhong Ming nodded: "This area is not the real big camp, and it is not the core of the important thing. I will accompany you wherever you want to go."
It’s still not allowed to wander around by yourself. Zhong Jing is strict in governing the army and must not allow it.
When Zhong Ming said this, Zhao Liya felt relieved: She just likes to be so orderly, so she said with a smile: "That's great, we want to go out for a stroll now, can we accompany you when you have time!"
Zhong Ming nodded and smiled: "What's wrong with this, Miss Zhao please!"
Miss Zhao is a distinguished guest and their God of Wealth. Who doesn't know the right and left arm of the general?
No matter what happens, Ms. Zhao must be happy!
Shu Yan and Zhao Liya are inseparable, and they will follow. She went to Lin Mo naturally. Needless to say, Yu Xiaofang, he also likes to go out and walk all over the mountains.
So, the four of them were not tired at all, and went out to wander around happily when they first arrived.
It wasn't until the sun went down that Zhong Jing found out, and then came back talking and laughing.
Zhong Ming sent someone to rush to ask Zhong Jing for instructions. Tonight, he ordered the masters of the Huotou Army to cook a few dishes for Zhao Liya and the others.
Zhong Jing smiled and said: "We are all old acquaintances, we don't see each other, even if we sit at the same table occasionally, it's okay, if it happens to be lively, I'll make the decision, sister Xiaoya, Brother Lin, sister-in-law, Doctor Yu, don't mind it !"
Zhao Liya smiled and said: "Of course I don't mind, this is just right!"
Shu Yan smiled: "Me too."
Zhong Jing laughed loudly: "Sure enough, we all have the same temperament, so that's fine!"
For a while, the food was put on the table, not necessarily elaborate, but well-prepared, white sliced chicken, stuffed tofu stuffed with shiitake mushrooms, steamed mandarin fish, fried chicken nuggets with soft-shelled turtle and spring bamboo shoots, steamed pork with pumpkin powder, boiled cabbage heart, garlic and spinach, Add a bowl of old fire soup, add lotus seeds, almonds, chestnuts, etc., the main ingredient is old duck pork belly.
Zhong Jing greeted everyone to sit down and said: "Alcohol is not allowed in the military camp, but this drink is free. Our military camp is full of bosses, and their cooking skills are naturally inferior to sister-in-law Shu. Don't be disgusted with it!"
Speaking of Shu Yan's craftsmanship, not to mention Zhong Jing hasn't tasted it for a long time, Zhao Liya and others couldn't help but feel a little greedy.
Shu Yan was amused in her heart, and simply smiled and said: "General Zhong is too modest, I am too embarrassed to boast! It is even more unjustifiable if I don't show my hands. In this way, I will cook for the big guys in the small kitchen in this yard tomorrow. Let’s cook the food! It’s a small effort.”
"Really!" Zhong Jing was overjoyed, his eyes lit up, and he realized that his reaction seemed to be a bit over the top, he coughed and hurriedly laughed and said, "This, this is really embarrassing, hahaha, it's a little bit I'm bothering my sister-in-law, hahahaha."
Zhao Liya: "Puchi!"
Lin Mo glanced at Zhong Jing, but said nothing.
Shu Yan couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips: "Don't bother, don't bother, and don't be embarrassed, I like cooking in the first place, this is nothing, it's a matter of convenience!"
Zhong Jing was even more delighted, "Hahaha, my sister-in-law is so virtuous! Then, then."
He didn't dare to talk nonsense this time, he went to look at Lin Mo while laughing.
It's also strange, Lin Mo is just a hunter, Zhong Jing is a dignified fourth-rank Guangwei general, but he instinctively fears Lin Mo.
Lin Mo said: "Shu Yan likes to cook, and she is her own person, so let's do it."
Zhong Jing just said "ah!" with a laugh: "Okay, okay, tomorrow I will ask someone to come over early in the morning, just tell me what ingredients my sister-in-law needs, and let them get it. Ah no, my sister-in-law will just say it tonight, and I will send it away." Zhong Ming will go talk to the Huotou army."
Shu Yan hurriedly said: "You don't need to bother, just send whatever ingredients you have in the military camp every day!"
Zhao Liya also laughed and said: "Our sister Shuyan can cook any dish at her fingertips, no matter what ingredients are there, she can't trouble our sister Shuyan!"
Zhong Jing slapped his forehead and laughed again and again: "Yes, I have little knowledge! Then I will ask Zhong Ming to bring the ingredients every day! Come, let's eat, eat!"
"OK, please!"
Everyone chatted and laughed and moved their chopsticks. The ingredients were fresh, and the craftsmanship of the master chef was naturally excellent. The taste of various dishes was unexpectedly better than it looked.
After dinner, Zhong Jing couldn't wait to discuss planting with Zhao Liya.
The temptation of white sugar is too great, the sweetness is too great, no one wants it.
