The two little guys carried a small barbecue stove, saluted Xu Ping, put it down on the table, lit the charcoal fire, put the grill net on it, and bowed to Xu Ping and said, "The county marquis, wait a while, the little ones go to get meat and vegetables." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

After a while, a few more servants came over, put down a briquette stove, turned the damper, and sat on an iron pot. The other put a small table next to the table, on which were lined up with all kinds of fresh meat dishes, and disturbed him.

At this time, there were only two small servants, one holding a thick wooden barrel, and one on each side of the table. The barrels are filled with half a bucket of ice, and the slightest bit of cool air is bubbling up, and it feels extremely cool at a glance.

The little guy with the wine put the two huge wine jugs into the ice wooden barrel, bowed down and said, "Junhou, you should wait for a while, and it is best to drink the wine in the pot when it cools down." ”

Xu Ping nodded and let them go, leaving only a neatly cleaned young guy to wait on the side.

Zheng Jian and Ji Ying looked at the tricks, and after a while, there were a lot of various things on the table, eating and drinking, and most of them couldn't be named.

Xu Ping asked the little guy on the side to put a few large handfuls of lamb tripe into the boiling soup pot on the stove, and several other kinds of boilable tofu and mushrooms went down to the pot together and slowly boiled first.

After a while, another servant held a wooden plate in his hand, which was full of boiled pork ribs, and the aroma was hot and fragrant. Putting the plate on the table, the little guy bowed and retreated.

Xu Ping pointed to the plate on the table and said: "This is a special braised soup made in the shop, which is boiled with selected ribs. ”

"Tianxiu, it turns out that you are here! No wonder the director wouldn't let us move here! ”

At this moment, a shout came from behind Xu Ping.

Xu Ping turned his head to look, and it turned out that Ouyang Xiu was standing not far away, and he happened to see Zheng Jian opposite, and shouted there. Behind Ouyang Xiu, there were also Yin Zhu, Cai Xiang, Hu Su, Wang Zhu and Fan Zhen.

These people came from behind Xu Ping, Xu Ping turned around and saw him here, and hurriedly bowed together: "Xia Guan and the others don't know that Deputy Envoy Xu is here, I was rude just now, I hope to forgive my sins!" ”

Xu Ping turned his back to everyone, his posture was very awkward, and he couldn't stand up to return the salute, and said: "It's inconvenient for me to get up here, and you don't need to be polite, come and sit down, and let the store add a few stools." ”

A few people walked around the backyard for a while, and suddenly found that the place where Xu Ping and a few people were sitting had the best terrain, which was cool by the river and quiet. They didn't want to sit with a group of officials, so they found the supervisor to change seats with the guests at this table, where did they think that the director would not do it anyway, so they came over to see it themselves, not wanting Xu Ping to sit here.

Of course, a few rich people here want to eat big households, and they are not polite at the moment, so they let the store add a stool and sit down around Xu Ping's table.

Xu Ping took a rib from the plate on the table and said to everyone: "Eat a little first and pad your stomach, otherwise you will be easy to get drunk and hurt your body if you drink on an empty stomach." ”

Ouyang Xiu looked at the ribs on the plate, frowned, and said, "Xu Beizhi, forgive the officials for talking too much, I see that you have already ordered so many dishes here, why do you still eat this?" Pork is cheap, this is a bone, how can it ......"

"Bones? The meat on this bone is the best meat, and only those who know how to eat it know the benefits. Anyway, it's already up, let's taste it for each person, and I won't know until I've eaten it! ”

Xu Ping said as he ate the ribs in his hand.

Treat this as a bone, in the previous life, it was much more expensive than meat, and at that time, I couldn't afford to eat it when I wanted to! In this era, of course, we must make up for the regrets of our previous lives. usually eats, Xu Ping has always picked food that he couldn't afford in his previous life.

And there is another reason, the dishes in the front shop are heavy salt and oil, large pieces of meat, this rib is really not suitable, so it was brought to the backyard, and the large pieces were cooked for the guests. Division of labor before and after, no waste of ingredients.

Seeing that Xu Ping was eating well, several other people also picked up the ribs on the plate and chewed them while gnawing on them. As soon as you eat the meat, it is really delicious, and the meat is soft and easy to chew.

Unconsciously, a rib is finished, and people can't help but get up.

The little servant brought the water, and everyone cleaned their hands and sat back on their seats.

At this time, Xu Ping instructed the servant to distribute the cups to everyone and pour the wine.

Looking at the transparent glass in front of him, which was two sizes larger than the usual wine glass, several people felt a little novel. These glassware are sold in the shops of the three divisions, and the Xu family shop where Xu Chang is in charge is more exquisite, but they are all expensive, except for the big rich and noble families, few people buy them for home use, I didn't expect this inconspicuous snack shop to use this kind of wine vessel.

The servant lifted the flask from the ice barrel and filled the glasses of the crowd with wine.

The wine is pale red, and the glass is illuminated by the light and reveals a dreamy color that is pleasing to the eye.

Xu Ping raised his glass: "Grape wine luminous glass, this is the fruit wine made in my village, mainly using grapes, and it is the most refreshing when iced." Although this solar term is a little earlier, let's try it first. Let's have a drink! ”

Everyone carefully held the wine glasses, took a big sip like Xu Ping, and inhaled the cool air together.

This sweet and cool taste makes it penetrate into people's souls, and it is so cold that it makes me feel excited, and I feel comfortable all over.

"For the wine of the Western Regions? In previous years, it was also sold in the capital, but I didn't think it was so delicious! ”

Wang Zhu sighed as he inhaled.

Xu Ping said: "It's about the same, of course, it's a little different. The Western Regions may have similar wine, but it is not as enjoyable as many ice cubes, and the entrance is of course very different. ”

Zeng Gongliang looked left and right, and said strangely: "This wine does have a different flavor when it is cold, but it is strange, why is it not on the other tables?" Behold, they drank fruit wine, too. ”

Xu Ping laughed when he heard this: "Do you think this bucket of ice is very cheap?" How many people here can afford this bucket of ice money! Today I invited you to drink, and that's why it's like this, but not everyone who comes here will ask for a bucket of ice to drink cold wine! ”

Everyone laughed together when they heard this, and thanked Xu Ping.

Regardless of business, Xu Ping is about the same age as these people, and even everyone here is older than him, except for Fan Zhen. Slowly getting acquainted, Xu Ping is easy-going and easy-going, and they are not particularly restrained together.

And today, Ouyang Xiu and the others originally came to celebrate the abolition of the depreciation and the actual money, and their monthly income has risen by a cut, so they must remember Xu Ping's kindness. I didn't expect to come to the store, I still eat Xu Ping and drink Xu Ping, and I am always a little embarrassed. (To be continued.) )
