Chapter 07: A New Year's Dinner with All Colors and Flavors!
Shen Manru's eyes couldn't help but look at Gu Qiaoqiao, this daughter-in-law who is only willing to make promises on weekdays, and has more than enough success and failure, how can she seem to be a different person today.
Standing there quietly like that, it looks quiet and beautiful.
Shen Manru thought, why did she have such thoughts, she must be crazy.
Gu Qiaoqiao said slowly, "Our country's food carving has a long history, about the Spring and Autumn Period, it is not only a plastic art to beautify the banquet and set off the atmosphere, but also to show its unique charm in the coordination with the dishes, which is not only the icing on the cake, but also a good art." ”
Bai Yun was stunned.
Grandma Qin smiled and said, "Qiaoqiao is right, that's the reason, this food carving, but it is a treasure in our country's culinary culture for 5,000 years......"
"Why, it's a stinky radish in your mouth." Gu Qiaoqiao didn't wait for Bai Yun to open her mouth to refute, and then said, "You have read a lot of books, you know a lot, Xiaoyu is still young, and you don't understand a lot of things, you should have told her these words, but you misled her." ”
"Gu Qiaoqiao, you ......" Bai Yun was embarrassed for a while.
The stupid woman spoke so fast that she didn't even react.
Suddenly, there was a crackling sound of firecrackers in the courtyard.
At this time, during the Spring Festival, the imperial capital has not yet banned fireworks.
Gu Qiaoqiao hadn't spoken so happily for a long time.
Looking at Bai Yun's shocked and angry eyes, a sense of happiness rose in her heart.
I have to say that Bai Yun's reaction was extremely fast, and she took Shen Manru's arm and suddenly said coquettishly, "Aunt Shen, the Qin family is a scholarly family, and it is not a cooking family, so I said this without much thought, I'm sorry." ”
"It's okay, why do you say you're sorry." Shen Manru has never been interested in cooking, so she smiled, "Besides, what you said is right, we don't open a hotel, just understand these things." ”
"Then I'm relieved, I'm still worried that Aunt Shen will annoy me and won't hurt me." Bai Yun was coquettish.
Then he took Xiaoyu's hand, "I'll look for you to watch the fireworks at night." ”
"Okay." Qin Xiaoyu was naturally happy.
Although it's actually a bit of a pity in my heart.
She didn't know what cooking culture was, but the carved flowers were really beautiful.
Gu Qiaoqiao looked away.
This girl, don't look at the same age as herself, but she is really not an ordinary child.
In the previous life, I was simple and confused, timid and cowardly, how could I not be toyed with by such a girl.
The corners of her mouth curled in self-deprecation.
The door was pushed open.
After setting off the firecrackers, Qin Yize and Qin Xuan entered the house.
The living room, which originally looked noble and elegant, was immediately eclipsed when Qin Yize stood there.
Bai Yun stood up and couldn't help but glance at Qin Yize, every time she looked at it, her heart hit like a deer.
Hiding the love in his eyes, he forced himself to look away, glanced at the dishes on the table that looked full of color and flavor, clenched his fingers, and then released them.
walked quickly to Gu Qiaoqiao's side, and smiled mischievously, "What my sister-in-law taught just now is that I was wrong, I shouldn't talk like that, for the sake of the New Year's face, don't keep a straight face with me, okay?" ”
Gu Qiaoqiao stared at her, and after a few breaths, he smiled, "Okay." ”
Bai Yun was stunned, and a distorted dark light crossed her eyes.
This slut really thinks he's a dish.
She forced a smile and said, "Then can I talk to you after I finish the New Year's dinner?" ”
What do you say?
It should be to teach her how to kneel in front of the old lady the next day, crying and asking him to call the shots, let Qin Yize demobilize and go home, and live a good life with her.
I'm really a good gun, pointing where to shoot.
The old lady had beaten the invaders when she was young.
Later, for some reason he had to be discharged from the army.
Otherwise, according to his merits, he may be an old general now.
He left the army with regret and pain.
Therefore, today's Qin Yize is a continuation of his dream and his pride.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, how can the old lady not be thunderous?
She Gu Qiaoqiao is in this Qin family, what status does she have!
I'm afraid it's not as good as the big black dog in the yard.
Gu Qiaoqiao was still standing in place, looking at Bai Yun fixedly, and nodded slowly, "Okay." ”
"I knew my sister-in-law was the best." Bai Yun spoke softly, as if she was happy, and then pulled her long hair, "Then I'll leave first, my family is going to have dinner." ”
"Well, Bai Yun, come and play after eating." Shen Manru smiled and spoke.
"Okay."
No one kept her, because today was a reunion dinner, and she had to eat it at her own home.
When Bai Yun passed by Qin Yize, she secretly glanced at the man who was as tall as jade, and then she pushed open the door and left the Qin family.
"Okay, there are no outsiders, the firecrackers have been set off, let's eat." Grandma Qin spoke.
"Aze, go and get the thatch." After Qin Xuan set off the firecrackers, his mood was much better.
Excitedly, let his son go and get the wine.
Then he took the lead in sitting under the old mother's hand.
The Qin family's dining table is rectangular.
Grandma Qin sat on the upper seat.
Shen Manru sat opposite Qin Xuan, and the others also sat in their usual positions.
Gu Qiaoqiao slowly sat next to Qin Yize, opposite Qin Xiaoyu, who glared at him.
"Although Qiaoqiao is cooking for the first time, it is absolutely impossible to be wrong based on this appearance and taste...... "Grandma sat in the main seat, although this vein is not prosperous, but they are all excellent.
looked at the family members sitting at her with relief, and the old lady also knew that her life was one year less than one year.
She cherishes the days of family reunion.
The old lady then said a few opening words, which were nothing more than auspicious words and blessings, and then picked up the chopsticks happily.
Other people, looking at the dishes on the table, can be called fragrant, but they don't know how they taste.
No one put down chopsticks.
It's a little embarrassing.
Although the Qin family is a scholarly family, it also has some old rules handed down from their ancestors.
The New Year's dinner requires the elders in the family to move the first chopsticks.
Professor Qin was worried that the taste would be bad and make the old mother uncomfortable, but it was not good to try it first.
I sighed slightly.
Since this daughter-in-law entered the house, the Qin family has lost its former peace and nobility.
Grandma Qin looked at Gu Qiaoqiao, who bowed her head slightly, and stretched out her chopsticks to pick up a piece of minced meat and eggplant in front of her eyes.
People are old, and their teeth are not good.
After only one bite, Grandma Qin was stunned.
Qin Xuan was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Mom, don't swallow it if it's not delicious, your stomach is not good." ”
Gu Qiaoqiao hooked the corners of her mouth, and her expression was indifferent.
Qin Yize's deep gaze fell on her face, and after a few breaths, he moved away lightly.
