Chapter 39: The Invitation
The snow was blowing heavily, and the goose-feathered snowflakes seemed to be pouring down with a dustpan.
Yun Xiao ordered the door to be opened, and the fireplace in the room burned with grease-filled wood. Next to him, the shirtless man was roasting a lamb, and this big man was the slave of the Zalandin family who was in charge of the barbecue. Yun Xiao spent three hundred gold coins in order to eat delicious roasted whole sheep. These coins can buy up to a hundred slaves. Anyway, the money was rewarded by his father, and he could pack a little more on the way back after spending it.
I have to say that this man's roasted whole sheep is really a must, eating fat roasted whole sheep on a snowy day. Drinking steamed wine and enjoying the snow outside the door is really a special flavor.
The room was quiet, except for the crackling sound of wood in the Orr fireplace. The mutton was already wafting out of the fragrance, and Kunlun Nu was brushing the mutton with a small brush over and over again with his secret water.
The snow outside the door rustled, and Yun Xiao picked up a piece of dried cantaloupe and put it on his nose and sniffed it. The fragrance of cantaloupe made Yun Xiao a little intoxicated, and he took a bite and chewed slowly in his mouth.
Yin Yin doesn't like this thing, little girls are partial to sweets, and she still has a soft spot for sweet raisins. Comparatively speaking, dried cantaloupe is not as sweet as raisins. She couldn't figure out why Bai Yunxiao liked to eat that unsweet dried cantaloupe.
It is even more unclear why Bai Yunxiao let Canghu collect grapes all over the world and the vines and seeds. Even the seeds of cantaloupe were collected, and the Yun family's steamed wine and canned food made Yun Xiao sell a lot.
"Eat less raisins, not because you can't afford them. It's because if you eat too much of this thing, you will get fat, you look at the Donghu woman outside. Each waist circumference is similar to height. Do you want to be like that? ”
Yun Xiao looked at Yin Yin, who was eating raisins, and was in a hurry, and the high priest jumped and jumped to pick a day for King Donghu. On the seventh day of the next month, Yun Xiao felt that the fourth and seventh days did not seem to be the best days to get married. But a monk has a scripture, and when you get to Donghu Ai, you can follow them.
Anyway, the way to deal with King Donghu has been thought of, and the thin urine bubble is filled with pigeon blood. You can guarantee that the blood is gushing, and the old guy will probably think that he has stabbed in the artery.
"What's the matter with that, you're not with me. I want you to know what I have become. ”
Since becoming a husband and wife, Yin Yin has grown a lot, and women just can't help but get used to it.
"You knew from the beginning that we couldn't be a long-term couple. It's the limit now. But I'll make some arrangements for you in Donghu. At least it won't be bullied later. ”
Kunlun Nu cut off a leg of mutton and put it on a plate, hunched over and handed it to Yin Yin. This woman is terrible, raisins and mutton and drinking. Yun Xiao estimated that in the foreseeable future, this girl would definitely become a fat person irrepressibly. Watching a slender waist about to become the thickness of a bucket. Yun Xiao hurriedly turned his head. so as not to have a psychological disorder yourself.
The lamb chops were brought to Yun Xiao. This is Yun Xiao's favorite. After hard work, Yun Xiao believes that the rib bones of animals are the most delicious part. Regardless of the animal, the meat on the rib bones is delicious. So up-grade foodies. You'll definitely have a soft spot for ribs.
Enjoy the snow scene, drink a little wine, and be accompanied by beautiful women. I don't change this day for the prince.
Outside the door, the goshawk came to report that Zalandin's butler wanted to see Yunxiao.
Zalandin's housekeeper is also an acquaintance, and when he sold Kunlun slaves, he ruthlessly pitted Yunxiao. So when buying steamed wine, Yun Xiao naturally wanted to put him along. In the end, it seems that neither of them has taken any advantage.
The two fought to a draw in the first round, and I don't know what this guy is doing again. Could it be that it was not enough to be slaughtered, and he stretched his neck and waited for himself to be stabbed. This time the bloodletting must be ruthless, when this old boy sold Kunlun slaves, the knife was sharpened quickly.
After letting Yin Yin avoid her, Zalandin's butler was called in. This guy was born with big ears, and he has a pair of thick eyebrows and big eyes on his country-shaped face, and he looks like Zhu Shimao when he looks cold.
"See Your Excellency the Han Envoy." The housekeeper stroked his chest and gave a salute, glancing at Kunlun Nu with a smile on the corner of his mouth. This was the most successful business he had ever done, and he sold one slave for a hundred slaves. The eldest prince rewarded him greatly for this, and now he is in the position of the great butler thanks to this business.
"What are you doing here? What's so bad to hold back? The last time I sold this guy, I cheated Ben Hou, how did I get addicted. Okay, I won't buy whatever you have in your hand this time. ”
Arnold introduced Donghu's food to Yun Xiao, and Yun Xiao, as a foodie, had the idea of competing. Arnold starts with roasted whole chicken and goes all the way up to roasted whole lamb. Yun Xiao was ready to fight, but after hearing that the whole camel was roasted, he suddenly lost the courage to compete.
At the beginning, the housekeeper sacrificed the Kunlun Nu Society to roast whole camels, which made Yun Xiao cut the meat manually. I didn't expect to come back and ask Kunlun Nu, it turned out that in Donghu, the whole sheep would be roasted, and the whole camel would be roasted. The process is similar, except that the stove is larger and the baking time is longer.
"Oh, no. After this heavy snowfall, it is time for all the dormant animals to come out. There is Darahan Mountain in the southwest of Zhangye. The stones there are very beautiful in the five-colored sun, and they are even more flavorful in winter.
The eldest prince asked the villain to invite His Excellency the Han envoy to go hunting and watching the scenery after the snow stopped. I wonder what His Excellency the Han envoy means? ”
Yunxiao's Danxia landform in Zhangye had heard of Yunxiao before, and I heard that there was also a special geopark. It's a pity that Yun Xiao didn't bring the group to Zhangye, so he didn't have a chance to see him. This time, when I heard that Zalandin was going to invite himself to see the Danxia landform, my heart immediately itched.
The third princess didn't seem to have troubled herself during this time, and the news from Arnold and John said that the third princess was reprimanded by King Donghu. Now he stays in the palace all day long, and he often beats and scolds his attendants to get angry. For the time being, there is no sign of revenge against Yun Xiao, and besides, hunting in the wild with guards is not afraid of her even if she retaliates.
Thinking of this, Yun Xiao agreed to Zalandin's invitation.
"Please tell His Royal Highness the eldest prince that Yun Xiao will definitely go to the appointment on time when the time comes. Goshawk, take the jar wine and give it to the big butler to taste. ”
"Thank you, Your Excellency."
The chief butler was very excited. The wine of the Han family spread all over Zhangye, and this was a drink that only the royal family had the opportunity to drink. Now that I have made a jar, I don't envy those stewards of other families.
Zalandin's butler left with a thousand thanks, and Yun Xiao continued to eat roast lamb chops and drink wine. Didn't take it to heart at all. (To be continued......)
