Chapter 327

The next day, in the morning.

Early in the morning, Xu Shu, Jia Xu, Pang Tong and others all arrived at the general's residence. Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Chen Dao and others in the general sequence also came early. After Zhang Xiuxian returned to Chang'an with the cavalry of Langya camp, Gan Ning led the army to Chang'an in the evening.

All the troops, pull back.

When civil servants and military generals gathered together, even Jing Zhao Yin Du Ji, who was newly subordinated to Zhang Xiu, also attended.

There are many talented people in the hall.

Among the people, only Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Li Ru knew the situation, and the rest did not. All they knew was that Zhang Xiu had told her to come to the party. But it's a surprise to go to dinner early in the morning.

They were chatting and talking about what had happened recently.

Pang Tong knew Zhang Xiu well, and it was unlikely that he would hold a banquet early in the morning. He looked at Xu Shu and asked, "Yuanzhi, my Lord, why did you suddenly invite us to the banquet today? There's something weird in it. Do you know why? "

Everyone's eyes fell on Xu Shu.

Xu Shu was the Minister of the Ministry of officials.

He is the most important official under Zhang Xiu's command and is likely to know the situation.

Xu Shu laughed and did not hide. He immediately said that he had prevented Zhou Fu from being appointed as a partial general. Finally, he said, "the Lord wants to prove that Zhou Fu's pork is delicious and useful, so he made a special trip to hold a banquet."

Things will eventually be announced, Xu Shu did not think there was anything, so he said it directly.

Pang Zhugong joked: "the first bet is that you raise your eyebrows. But this time, it's interesting. I'm looking forward to it. "

Other people's hearts were open, talking about the appointment of Zhou Fu as a partial general.

At the end of the day, Zhang Xiu came.

Today's Zhang Xiu, dressed in a white robe, is very handsome. He strode into the hall, and the crowd immediately got up to salute.

Zhang Xiu nodded, sat down on the throne, and said with a smile: "you have arrived. Today I call you here to let you taste pork. It's interesting about pork. It comes from a cook named Zhou Fu

It's not surprising to hear that people know in advance.

Zhang Xiu continued: "because of Zhou Fu, I would have bet with Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Li Ru. If Zhou Fu's pork doesn't smell fishy, then I have to pass the appointment of general Zhou Fu pian."

Xu Shu said with a smile: "there is such a gamble. I hope the Lord can win."

Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "Yuanzhi, you will surely lose."

"I'll wait and see!"

Xu Shu is neither humble nor overbearing. He has nothing to fear. He seems very relaxed.

It's nothing to bet with Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu's big sleeve flicked and said with a smile: "if we don't say much, let's talk with facts. This morning, Zhou Fu took the killed pig to his house. He would have been busy with him for a long time. In the backyard kitchen, all kinds of dishes were ready. Now, let's have a feast on the tip of your tongue. "

Speaking of this, Zhang xiulang said: "come on, let Zhou Fu arrange the dishes."

After the soldiers were informed to go down, they soon saw one by one soldiers coming in. In the hands of every soldier, there is a delicate pottery pot, which is the same as a soup pot in later generations.

The pottery pot is smaller, about 10 cm in diameter and 15 cm in height.

Inside each pottery pot, there is milk white pig's hoof soup. There are seven or eight pig's hooves in it. After nearly two hours of stewing, the pig's hoof is extremely soft, and the Milky soup is full of crystal clear oil beads, which greatly increases people's appetite.

This pig's hoof soup was made from four pig's hoof stews after Zhou Fu slaughtered pigs in the early morning of the morning. Four pig's trotters are put in a big pot and simmered slowly. After boiling, keep warm all the time.

Now it's divided into each pot and placed one by one in front of everyone.

Everyone has a pot of pig's hoof soup.

Zhang Xiu looked at the pig's hoof soup in front of her, picked up a spoon, took a spoon, and drank it with a pee. Although it's a hot day now, I feel comfortable after drinking a mouthful of warm pig's hoof soup.

Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "come on, give it a try."

When people heard the words, they didn't take the lead. Among the people present, such as Jia Xu and Li Ru, who were once officials, they have eaten delicacies and are well-informed.

Rao is like this, and has never drunk the soup stewed with pig's feet. Now, of course, they don't know which part of the pig is stewed.

Zhang Xiu saw that all of them didn't do anything. She knew that this was a preconceived conflict.

Because of the conflict, so refused.

It's normal.

After Zhang Xiu took the lead in the demonstration, seeing that no one took the initiative, she said with a smile, "Yuanzhi, don't you want to bet with Ben Jiang? If you don't try, how can you decide who will win or lose? "

Xu Shu gritted his teeth and said, "I'll have a taste of it."

He looked down at the Milky soup, picked up the spoon and dropped it.

At this moment, everyone's eyes fell on Xu Shu.Xu Shu tried the law by example.

Everyone wants to see, what is the situation in the end, in case there is a smell of mutton and Sao?

Xu Shu scooped up a spoonful of soup with a spoon, lowered his head slightly and tasted it gently. The pig's trotters that come into the mouth are very comfortable, which soaked the soup of all the pig's feet. Once in the stomach, it seems to make the stomach completely warm up.

There was a smile on Xu Shu's face. He opened his mouth again, and a spoonful of soup came into his mouth.

At this moment, Xu Shu decided.

The soup is really delicious, and it doesn't have any peculiar smell.

Zhang xiudao: "Yuanzhi, how about this soup?"

"It's delicious!"

Xu Shuyan's simple and comprehensive answer, he said: "although the soup is thick and delicious, without the slightest smell, it can be called a peerless delicacy, but the pork has not been tried. What if the pork tastes good? "

Zhang Xiu said, "try again."

"Good!"

Xu Shu nodded.

At this time, the civil servants and military generals in the hall heard Xu Shu's words and quickly picked up spoons and tried pig's hoof soup. The mellow taste of pig's hoof soup is distributed in the taste buds, making people feel more comfortable.

It's delicious.

One by one, they tasted the delicious soup and saw the white pork stewed in the soup, but no one took the lead in eating meat with chopsticks. They were worried about the significance of pork.

Xu Shu is still the pioneer.

In Xu Shu's heart, there was a trace of expectation at this time. He scooped up a pig's hoof with a spoon. At this time of pig's hoof meat, stewed very soft, a little sip, you can make bone and meat out.

When the spoon comes out, the pig's hoof is shaking slightly, which makes people have a big appetite.

In his eyes, Xu Shu still had a preconceived taste in his heart. He put the pork in the bowl, picked up the chopsticks, carefully put a little into his mouth.

Pork into the mouth, taste soft, delicate incomparable, a sip on rotten, and then slide down the throat into the stomach, only know delicious, but did not feel fine.

Compared with the firewood of beef and mutton, pork is more delicate.

In this era, there are generally few meat and oil. Even the pigs raised by ordinary people are not delicious because they are raised in captivity, have little fat, not much fat, and have a great smell of mutton.

It's different to raise pigs.
