"One fish for two dishes can solve the current dilemma."
The dining eunuch and the chef felt numb, "you want to hide it! No, you're too brave!
"So the maidservant just said if." The bird's nest explained, "the shad is expensive. It will die when it is out of the water. It tastes unspeakable when it is transported by horses or caravans to the capital - isn't that why you choose braised pork, the chef? Mix the other fish to shape the other half, and then return to the pot for braised. The maidservant can ensure that the cooked shad tastes no different from other shad. "
The bird's nest said in a low voice.
When she suggested that one fish be used for two dishes, the dining eunuch and the chef were afraid that there were many people in the kitchen. When someone with a broken mouth said that he was bald and talked to others, he let the bird's nest go out with them and found a corner to talk to the bird's nest.
The dining eunuch said, "you speak lightly. When the guests find out, what's the face of the long princess?"
The bird's nest was not alarmed: "I heard that two of the invited ladies have their parents' or husbands' families in Dinghai county. You can send half of the fish to their table. Fishing boats often go to Nanxun in Dinghai county. Slaves often buy seafood and river fresh with fishermen from Dinghai and know a little about their local customs. The local people taboo turning over the fish when they eat fish. It has the meaning of turning over the boat. As long as the fish cut into two is brought to the table, they won't find it. "
The chef pondered: "you also said that the two are from Dinghai county. They must have eaten fresh shad, and they tasted it wrong --"
"This will not happen." The bird's nest was determined. Her talking appearance made the chef dare not underestimate the little servant girl who was said to help when she came from the Lotus Garden: "are you so confident?"
Bird's Nest: "there are rows of small stoves built beside the wharf in Dinghai county. An umbrella, a steamer and wooden tables and chairs are a restaurant. Whenever a fishing boat comes to the shore, people buy shad from the fisherman, and they can give the fish to the owner of the small stove in a few steps. She will cook it now, kill it now and make a steamed shad. It tastes different from the shad transported all the way to the capital. Before I entered the house, I followed the cook to make a lot of vegetarian fish or fish meat mixture. You can confuse the fake with the real. "
At this time, the boy who bought ran back with a fish.
The dining eunuch shouted at him quickly. He didn't feel it from a distance. When he looked closer, he found it was a herring and asked him what was the matter: "how can you buy a herring?"
The boy shouted: "when the small one arrived at the fish market, the shad had long been gone. The small vendor said that several could be delivered tomorrow. The little one asked mandarin fish again, but mandarin fish didn't look like shad at all. After looking for several houses, there were only stinky mandarin fish, and finally the little one had to buy herring... "
"You!"
How can it be so replaced!
The chef thought about the possibility of bird's nest. If you don't turn over and eat the half of the fish under the fish bones, it should also be... Feasible, "but you can't turn one fish head and fish bones into two."
Bird's Nest: "it's good to replace it with something else. Chef, please rest assured. Since coral can say so, all the details will be done well. It won't make people see that it's greasy - the cat can't tell."
She meant that she cooked those two dishes herself“ No matter what happens, the coral will bear it. "
Chef: "I think it's feasible."
Dining eunuch: "we don't think so!"
Chef: "no, what, no, you come. This is the basket you poked out. Now I want the whole kitchen to worry with you."
The dining eunuch said, "it's a big matter. It's found that people hide things from the world. The majesty of the eldest princess is damaged, and the consequences are very serious."
Chef: "the long Princess asked for the shad by name. The guests didn't ask for it. Let me ask you, have you reported the name of the dish?"
The dining eunuch was stunned. When the shad was withdrawn to the kitchen, he told the servant girls to serve the dishes without reporting the names of the dishes. If a lady and her family asked, he would answer softly. Did he already have an idea to hide at that time.
Time was too long for them to tangle. The manager came to urge them in person.
The dining eunuch said, "coral, tell the manager to do it if he agrees. No, let's continue to think of another way. "
The bird's nest is blessed. Here you are.
"Why are you still here, not in the kitchen?" The manager asked, "how to solve the shad?"
"Back to the manager, there is a solution, but..." the dining eunuch hesitated. The manager asked him to say anything, and he asked the bird's nest to explain.
The bird's nest said, "the maidservant proposed that a fish be divided into two plates, and then packed into two plates, and then the herring meat is filled into the other half. The shad is facing up and the herring is facing down. These two plates are sent to the wife's table from Dinghai county. Out of customs, they won't turn over the fish to eat. The maidservant is sure that the wives at those two tables can't find the mystery."
The manager listened curiously, but the bird's nest was too bold.
"When things are urgent, you have the right."
"It's a matter of urgency. You can do it. When it's done, you can bring the two plates of fish." The manager said and reported it to the princess.
The long Princess flashed a different color in her eyes and covered her face with a fan: "it's curious for the chef to master such a skill."
The eldest princess has passed this level now. The manager's temples are wet with sweat.
"What's the matter?" Sun Changxin asked.
"Nothing, some trivial things."
In the middle of the meal, when the lady learned that the little white cat in trouble came back, she suddenly felt a big stone in her heart and ate more bowls of rice.
Cui mengzhang, wife of founding Hou Ji, glanced at Liu Qingchi and Liu Chengxin from a distance and lamented why such a good thing did not fall on her son. Thinking of Liu Qingchi's hint in the garden, she asked her to arrange them to meet peishuo as soon as possible. Her heart seemed to be pricked by a needle through cotton wool, which was not painful but uncomfortable.
The banquet was full of happiness, and the maids and servant girls rushed out from the side door of the side hall.
Braised shad is coming down.
The bird's nest carries two plates of half true and half false shad and sends them to the tables of the two wives in Dinghai county. Although their parents or husbands are from Dinghai County, their relationship is not harmonious. They pinch when they meet, and they can't even maintain the plastic sisters on the surface.
The bird's nest sent vegetables to wait under the green landscape paper screen. She can't go. This is what the catering eunuch said. If there is anything wrong with the two tables, she will be asked to take the blame at the first time.
She lifted her eyes and swept around when delivering vegetables. Her uneasy heart was in her stomach in this eye. There were those who didn't eat fish at those two tables, those from Dinghai County who paid attention to eating fish and didn't turn over, and some of them showed a little belly under their clothes. Their chopsticks had been put down and their hands were put on their abdomen.
The bird's nest was leisurely and half guilty. She left like other servant girls. The two tables of women didn't find that the servant girl played a trick of changing the day under their eyes.
The ladies moved their chopsticks one after another, picked up the fish and sent it to their mouths.
The dining eunuch sweated in his palm.
