MTL - Dali Temple Small Dining Room-Chapter 326 Fish-flavored Eggplant Casserole (1)

  Chapter 326 Fish-flavored eggplant stew (1)

  Lin Fei rubbed the center of his brows, glanced at the vermilion door again and left.

  After he left, the coachman who was listening to the noise outside threw the whip to the gatekeeper, and strode to report to Princess Liyang.

  Anyone who can order ordinary servants of the royal family at will can't be just a coachman. The porter picked up the riding whip that fell on the ground with a respectful expression.

  This is the confidant of the prince and princess, so he can't offend at will.

   Today, the thief who "intruded into the palace by mistake" was not caught on the wall. I am afraid that someone will suffer from the princess, so it is better to be on the safe side.

  Others envy them for treating others and doing things in Shan Liyang's mansion, and only they themselves know what the masters and masters in this mansion look like behind closed doors.

   When I returned to Dali Temple with a stack of story books, it was just in time for the public chef to eat evening food.

  Wen Mingtang went back to rest for a while, flipped through his notebook, and went to the public kitchen when the evening meal was about to end, to see the glutinous rice ball master and A Bing master who had been busy all day.

  Today, the public chef cooks fish head tofu stew. It was supposed to be one fish head per person, but Dali Temple Minister Zhao Mengzhuo, who did not eat evening meals in the yamen in the past, actually stayed in the yamen to eat evening meals for the first time. To be honest, he has been greedy for food from the public kitchen for a long time in the past, but after all, his wife is more important in his heart, even if it is delicious, he still wants to eat the food made by his wife, so he rarely comes to the public kitchen.

   Mrs. Zhao went to a banquet today, instead of cooking by herself as in the past, Zhao Mengzhuo naturally came to the public kitchen.

The fresh and spicy taste of the chopped pepper fish head tofu and chopped peppers was so satisfying to Zhao Mengzhuo's appetite that one fish head was not enough, so he ate two fish heads in a row, and then touched his bulging belly and asked Ji Cai to buy it I asked for some hawthorn pills for digestion, refused the **** of the coachman Lao Yuan, and walked all the way back.

Mr. Zhao just lost two servings of food out of thin air. He originally planned to eat the glutinous rice **** and A Bing after the evening meal, so he could only watch what was left in the public kitchen and make them for the evening meal. .

  Wen Mingtang came over while he was worrying.

  The three people who hadn't eaten the evening food hit it off and looked through the stock of the public kitchen.

  Eggplant was used in the evening vegetarian dish, and there were some left on the table. The fish body left over from the meat-eating fish head tofu stew is used to make fish balls, which are ready to be made into soup tomorrow. Pork pork with pork belly has been used to make crispy pork belly these days, and it is being pickled and hung in the warehouse at this time, but Ji Caimai bought a lot of pork belly, so the people in the village donated more meat Mo and Ji Cai bought, the minced meat was placed on the table at this time, because it was only a small packet, it was still a gift, and everyone hadn't figured out how to use it yet.

  Master Zhao's appetite improved for a while, and in this way, the three of them only had these minced meat left in their evening meal.

   Tangyuan looked at the minced meat, thought for a while, and said, "How about making a stewed egg with minced meat?"

  With Master Wen around, this stewed egg with minced meat is also very delicious.

  Wen Mingtang picked up a few eggplants from the table, and said to the glutinous rice balls, "I won't be making stewed eggs with minced meat, and I'm missing vegetarian dishes."

  They had a good grasp of the appetite and portion size of the people in Dali Temple. Today, after everyone in Dali Temple finished their evening meal, there was nothing left on the table except some vegetable soup.

  Wen Mingtang held up the eggplant in his hand, and said, "Let's make meat and vegetables together!"

  …

  It was already past the time for evening food, and most of the Dali Temple left except for a few guards who stayed on duty overnight.

Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu haven't left yet. They are usually more concerned about the case than they are. It is rare for Shangfeng and Lin Shaoqing to ask for leave, but the two of them dare not neglect. Shangfeng is not here, not only can't slack off, but should behave better , otherwise, wouldn't it be lined like someone who eats dry rice?

  Shangfeng is not here today. After Hu Siming in prison and Liu Sanqing, who is in the stone gambling business, they went to visit Zhang Wulin, who was in the business of the Four Treasures of the Study.

   On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, he dropped a red moon and clear clay inkstone on the cruise ship.

  When visiting Zhang Wulin in the past, Zhang Wulin was arranging the Four Treasures of the Study on the multi-treasure shelf in his shop.

Although it is only a shop that sells the Four Treasures of the Study, it is different from most shops in the city that only have two simple shops. Zhang Wulin's shop is not so much a shop as a building, and among the shops that sell the Four Treasures of the Study in the city, there is only one with three floors. shop.

However, the four treasures of the study sold by Zhang Wulin's shop are all unusual, all of them are famous products, and the people they entertain on weekdays are not ordinary people. It also makes sense.

  The business of this kind of shop is not based on quantity. When Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu entered, there was only Zhang Wulin in the shop, not even a clerk.

   "Dude has something to do at home these few days," Zhang Wulin and the two explained with a smile after seeing the ceremony, "It happens that there is no one at the moment, so just ask if you have anything to do!"

The left red moon inkstone was placed on the table, Bai Zhu picked up the inkstone, looked at the vermilion full moon on it, got up, walked to the multi-treasure shelf and looked inside the shop The Four Treasures of the Study.

Zhang Wulin raised his head instinctively, his eyes followed Bai Zhu's direction, but he heard two "knock knocks" in his ears, turned his head, and saw Liu Yuan on the other side knocked on the table, motioning him to look Own.

   This knock made Zhang Wulin notice him, and then Liu Yuan asked, "The Hongyuecheng mud inkstone is not a big object, and it is easy to carry in your arms. How could it fall for no reason?"

   This kind of external object is no better than the soft armor internal object dropped by Liu Sanqing, so it is naturally easy to explain.

Zhang Wulin smiled, and explained calmly: "The moon was full in the Mid-Autumn Festival that day, and I brought Chengni inkstone to facilitate more business. The atmosphere during the banquet was good. I drank a few more glasses during the festival, and I forgot about it when I got off the boat. When I remembered this the next day, I hurried to get it back."

  Liu Yuan gave a "hmm" and was noncommittal to his explanation, and continued to ask: "When did I get on the boat, and when did I get off the boat."

Zhang Wulin said with a smile: "The boat I entered in Youshi was a tour boat chartered by the chamber of commerce. There were many merchants on the boat. It is inevitable for those who do business on weekdays to socialize. Many people are witnesses. When they got off the boat, they were probably sons and daughters. It's time."

  This testimony is the same as Liu Sanqing's, and there is nothing to consider. As for the cruise ship, after asking Liu Sanqing, the people from the boat rental office on the Weishui River came to the Yamen to confirm that there were indeed several pleasure boats belonging to the Chamber of Commerce in the cruise ship. People will take care of it.

  The witnesses that Liu Sanqing gave when he boarded the ship were also from those people on board, as were the witnesses that Zhang Wulin gave when he boarded and disembarked.

  Same as Liu Sanqing, it seemed very "frank" at first glance, but Liu Yuan didn't even lift his eyelids, and asked Zhang Wulin: "These hours have been witnesses throughout the whole process? Have you ever left in the middle?"

  The smile on Zhang Wulin's face froze, he paused, and looked at Liu Yuan: "How many hours will Gong not go out to enjoy the moon and watch the fireworks? Do you think it's possible?"

  Liu Yuan shook his head: "Impossible."

  So it's hard to say whether Zhang Wulin and Liu Sanqing got off the ship halfway to go on a private matter on the self-chartered cruise ship.

Zhang Wulin thought for a while, and was about to say something, when at this moment, Bai Zhu, who was looking at the Four Treasures of the Study in front of the multi-treasure stand, suddenly said: "Zhang Wulin, the two of us I have inquired about it before I came here, and I heard that every Chengni inkstone from your shop is an "orphan product", and the patterns drawn on it are unique, so...why is the one on your shelf the same as the one on your case? Yes, different colors alone?"
