Chapter 35: The Night Feast
Xiao Han's house is so lively, needless to say, this is a very popular wine party in the Sui and Tang dynasties, which can also be called a dinner party.
Speaking of this banquet, in fact, even Xiao Han himself was a little confused, shouldn't the Tang Dynasty invite guests by the host's post? Why did the guests come to him with posts?
And he, who was still doing nothing in the morning, thought about visiting the Great Ci'en Temple, and was busy preparing the ingredients for these hungry guests in the afternoon? And these hungry customers even order, aren't they just the host?
The more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, Xiao Han looked at Xiao Shiyi who was leading the sheep in the backyard and was a little distracted.
"Master Hou... Hou Ye ......"
A timid voice came from behind, interrupting Xiao Han's thoughts.
"Oh, big girl? What's wrong? ”
Xiao Han didn't know why, he wanted to laugh at the mention of this name, he originally wanted to give a good name, such as Chunxiang Xia Xiang and the like, but in addition to plagiarism, he couldn't think of any good names, and put Xiaobai or something on them, and felt like a puppy...... In the end, I can only scream first, and I always feel like a village woman......
The eldest girl rubbed the corners of her clothes with both hands, her face was flushed, and she didn't dare to look at Xiao Han, especially after Xiao Dalang pulled her and muttered to her, this little girl who was only twelve or thirteen years old didn't dare to come to see Xiao Han.
Although this master seems to be very kind, Uncle Stunned said that this seemingly kind master also came back from the battlefield, and he may not know how many lives there are in his hands, or he can be a marquis at a young age?
Xiao Han didn't know that he had already equated himself with the general who was charging in the big girl's heart, but he just watched the big girl twist and pinch for a long time without speaking, and felt a little funny in his heart: "Big girl, what's the matter, just say it, could it be that those leather boys bullied you?" ”
"No, no, that, Uncle Stunned asked me to come to you and say that you should take an inventory of the gift list......"
"Counting the gift list?" Xiao Han subconsciously touched his chin, not understanding why someone gave him a gift?
"That's it?"
"Hmmm......"
"Okay, I know, you can go back if it's okay......"
After speaking, Xiao Han patted his buttocks, muttering who would give gifts at this time, and walked towards the porter, leaving the eldest girl in place, looking at Xiao Han's back blankly, and then seemed to think of something, and his face became even redder......
Where does Xiao Han know the thoughts of this little girl, of course, even if he knows, he doesn't have livestock to the point where he doesn't even let go of a teenage girl.
I hurriedly went to the porter, pushed the door and looked, I went, the housekeepers of each family are here! And the master unity is all gone, and it is estimated that this will have gone to the backyard.
This group of livestock, entering Xiao Han's house, is more casual than his own family, and if he can't do it, he has eaten it now......
When the housekeepers who stayed in the gatehouse saw Xiao Han, they hurriedly bent down and saluted one by one! The "old slave" screamed happily.
But Xiao Han didn't even bother to look at them, his eyes directly crossed over this group of housekeepers, and looked at the big table in the concierge in a daze!
I don't know if it's Feng Da or Liu Er's big mouth, which actually spread Xiao Han's morbid obsession with gold!
And this time when they came to eat with Xiao Han, those individuals even congratulated Xiao Han on his promotion to a nobleman, and officially stepped into the same level with them in terms of identity, so except for a few people who were not very familiar with them, the gifts that Xue received from them were all gold!
In other words, gold and silver are not the currency of the Tang Dynasty, but Xiao Han recognizes gold, and copper coins rust after a period of time.
Besides, I didn't even mix a gold necklace in my previous life, and I had to go to the night market to pull two gold-plated ones, with a neck, and the stabbed neck was pimple......
He took the greeting post with a smile, and as soon as he turned around, Xiao Han's face immediately changed from red to black like Sichuan Opera, and he was in a hurry to start bombarding people, and blasted out all the housekeepers in the house, I don't care about your meal, go out! Go back to your own house, find your own mother......
The vermilion door slammed shut, and the housekeepers who were kicked out stood outside the door, you look at me, I look at you, all of them were the second monk who was confused, and one by one thought that Xiao Han was unhappy because of his poor etiquette.
It is estimated that they didn't expect to kill them, Xiao Han and Xiaodong were squatting in the house at this time, and their mouths couldn't be closed, swaying with the golden gold, and the disgusting appearance of salivating was unbearable!
"The gold is good! Because I don't know anyone else......" Xiao Han sighed and closed the lid of the box containing gold, and then looked at the table next to him, and he didn't get angry, what is this? What is this???
A few glass beads that are three flat and four are not round, what? Or is it imported? Bah! The glass beads that Lao Tzu played with when he didn't go to school were countless times better than this, and there were ribbons in them!
What is this? Two broken bowls? Qin Shi Huang used? No? So what are you doing with this? When do I ask for food? Want to me off?
As soon as he threw down the broken bowl, he saw a scroll of calligraphy and paintings, and his heart was excited, could it be Wang Xizhi's?
Open it and take a look, oh, I don't know if it's Wang Xizhi, but this is definitely written by a god!
"Du Fu can move ???" Xiao Han felt a little dizzy in his brain, wasn't Du Fu still unborn? How to move?
At the door, a weak voice came: "It's diligence that can make up for ......"
Xue Shu didn't expect Xiao Han, who couldn't be found, to look at the gift here in a hurry, and he was really defeated by him, and he couldn't read three words incorrectly, could he read or write......
Xiao Han handed the calligraphy and painting to Xiao Dong on the side, and stood up with a smile: "Just kidding, just kidding, read from right to left, I still know!" ”
After speaking, he gave Xiaodong who was smirking next to him a kick: "Go and see if the food is ready?" Don't starve your guests! ”
Watching Xiaodong rabbits running away, Xiao Han was not idle, pulling Xue Shui and walking out, it looks like he is going to take out the treasure at the bottom of the box tonight, and let them know that this gift is not in vain......
As a scholar of China and the West, he is well versed in the millennium ...... (vomiting...... Let me vomit first...... )
The dinner at Xiao Han's house is very distinctive! Especially in this Datang, it is definitely the only one!
A big round table, a dozen or so people in one table! It's a pity that there are no bearings, and there is no way to make one that can turn, or I have to let you old hats see it......
Several tables were spread out in a semicircle, and Xiao Han's ingenious presence lit a big fire in the middle of the scene, one side of the fire was a round table, and the other side was the open-air kitchen!
In the open-air kitchen, a pro-soldier specially selected by Xiao Han from the auxiliaries, with a big head and a thick neck, was stirring the meat slices in the cauldron, and he didn't know whether it was excited or hot, and his nose was glowing red.
This iron-making furnace that was originally intended to give Xiao Han a good idea to build at home has been completely converted into a stove, a large piece of wood is filled in, the flames are rushing upward, and a large cauldron of the military camp is on it, and the oil splashes are accompanied by water vapor!
"Serve the food!! The fat soldier picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, and shouted like Xiao Han, and there were immediately five or six more plates in front of him! There are no maids, let Xiao Lang and them play the job for the time being, this kind of banquet, they and the other soldiers really don't have the identity of the table.
"Rejoice! Thinking of this unsalted and light sauce of green vegetables in the seemingly ugly iron pot, it is a little less bitter and more flavorful! ”
Fang Xuanling, who had a goatee, sat at the round table, holding an emerald green rape on the lacquered wooden chopsticks, sniffing deeply, and the fragrance was fragrant! I was about to fill it in my mouth, but unexpectedly, the chopsticks suddenly lightened, and the rape was nowhere to be found!
"Ahh The one who killed a thousand knives robbed the old man's dish!! ”
Everyone shook their heads together, but Chai Shao, can you swallow it first and then shake your head? Such a large rape leaf hangs on the cheeks, and I am not afraid of shaking my head when my jaw hurts......
"Chai Shao'er, the old man fought with you!!"
"Look, braised pork ribs!"
"Huh? There???? ”
"Hahaha......"
Xiao Han pulled a chair casually, and looked at a group of people laughing with a smile, since that day Zhang Qiang sent food to the barracks, and then the greedy Chai Shao personally came to the door, and after his big mouth publicity, not to mention that everyone in the whole world knows it, at least everyone in the military camp knows that his food here is the best in the world......
Seeing the scene of a group of people eating as if they were fighting, Xiao Han could predict that his large courtyard was estimated to become the base of King Qin's mansion, to be precise, the base of the canteen.
Li Shimin also looked at Chai Shao and Duan Zhixuan pinching each other for a bone with a smile, in this pure land, he can always feel stable from the bottom of his heart, whether it is all kinds of novel utensils or strange makeup, don't be surprised here, no matter how strong the husband is, he always needs a place where he can rest a little, and Xiao Han here is undoubtedly the best place!
A crisp copper bell sounded, and the noisy courtyard seemed to be paused, and all the sounds disappeared, and everyone was looking at Xiaodong, who was shaking the copper bell.
Looking at the suddenly silent scene, Xiao Han sighed sincerely, "Sure enough, they are all men on the battlefield, and this vigilance alone is enough to learn for a while!" ”
"Everyone, everyone!"
After thinking about it, Xiao Han stood up, climbed onto the chair, shouted around, and saw that everyone's attention was concentrated, so he continued: "Thank you for not giving up, Xiao Han has developed a new spirit in the house, take advantage of everyone's happiness tonight, and specially take it out to share with you, everyone is welcome to ......"
The sparse applause sounded, like an unsuccessful drama, and Li Shimin and the others were still not used to applauding this new thing......
The applause disappeared, and I saw the excited Xiaodong drop the copper bell and take the lead in lifting a jar of wine from behind, without a mud seal, only covered with a piece of brown paper.
Raising the coarse porcelain jar to publicize it, Xiaodong lifted the kraft paper, and suddenly, a special fragrance of distilled liquor floated out of the jar, emitted in the air, and lingered......
Chai Shao, who was very close to Xiaodong, sniffed, with a look of disbelief: "Hey, what kind of wine is this, why is it so fragrant, you added spices?" ”
Xiao Han rolled his eyes widely: "Do you think this is boiled beef, with spices??" By the way, if you don't say it, I forgot, who cooked beef last time and ate it alone? I'm not afraid to die......"
Chai Shao smiled a little embarrassedly: "Okay, okay, next time there is a cow that fell to death, I will send you a quick one, isn't it because you were too busy last time and didn't call you, as for the now...... Quickly pour the wine, pour the wine, this smell has hooked my gluttony! ”
