276. January 26, two years, sunny, the sound of firecrackers reminds the new year
Tomorrow is the Spring Festival. Firecrackers began to ignite in the city from early morning today, and every household began to paste peach talismans and draw door gods, giving a New Year atmosphere.
Song Beiyun is now preparing the New Year’s Eve dinner in the kitchen. Today he is the chef, and everyone else is only worthy of taking action.
“What’s good to eat today?”
Because Miaoyan is in a strange environment, she seems particularly attached to Song Beiyun. She is the only one left in the kitchen forbidden area.
"As the head dish, just make a wine-making river fish." Song Beiyun introduced while cutting the fish into pieces: "Remove the scales and internal organs of the fresh fish in the Ganjiang River, wash it and cut it into small pieces with ginger, garlic and bean paste, and rice wine. Then cook oil in the pot and put the drained fish pieces into the pot and heat it up. After the two sides are golden, add fermented black beans, sweet rice wine, and soy sauce. Turn it out the aroma and add water to the juice, then add sugar, and finally add minced ginger and a little horseradish and dogwood to the pot. The taste is fresh and sweet, soft and fragrant in the mouth."
"Yes." Miaoyan smiled: "What about?"
"You will know later, and there will be no surprises when you say it."
This New Year’s Eve dinner is very important for Song Beiyun, so his ingredients are absolutely luxurious, such as prosciutto, duck with sauce, braised chicken, fried dried beef, steamed bacon from winter bamboo shoots, and mutton chops.
The most important dish is his father's specialty dish. Although he can't call it a name, it is a traditional dish that Song Beiyun makes every year.
This dish is complicated and complicated, and it is simple and simple. That is, first take the bacon of five flowers first, wash and steam it, take it out and let it cool when the meat is crispy and rotten. Then wrap it with egg liquid and rice flour and cold oil to fry it in the pan. When the rice flour begins to fluffy and golden, take it out and steam it in the pan for two hours. After it is released, it is finally refrigerated to the pot and fry it over high heat.
This dish tastes hot and fragrant. The aroma of bacon is mixed with oily aroma and moderate saltiness. The rice noodles add a crispy texture. The steamed meat melts in the mouth. This dish alone can eat three big bowls of rice.
After all these dishes were ready, it was also evening. Several heads were already lying on the window outside and watching Song Beiyun busy. He turned around and smiled: "It's almost done, the last dish."
"You should hurry up. Your fragrance has aroused my greed. My stomach has been screaming all day long." Qiaoqiao lay on the window and shouted dissatisfiedly: "Hurry up."
"No, men can't be too fast."
Song Beiyun took out a piece of tofu from the ice water: "The last dish is here, you can go and wait for it later."
This last dish is also a very exquisite dish. Because it is a soup, it is particularly complicated to prepare. First, cut three pieces of tofu into slices, with meat filling between each two slices. The meat filling also contains mystery, seven parts of pork, one part of shelled river shrimp and one part of ham, and finally put chopped water chestnuts on it. Carefully place the tofu with the meat filling in a basin, and then cover it with another kind of meatballs made of minced meat.
This meatball is not a random pinch, but adds dilute water and flour, taro paste and seasonal wild vegetables to the minced meat to make a dumpling as big as two fists. The dumpling is wrapped with the flavored fish paste and then wrapped in a large pork skin jelly. Then put the tofu and meatballs in a steamer.
While waiting for the pot, Song Beiyun hung a pot of clear and slightly yellowed broth with twelve delicacies, mutton, chicken and a crucian carp.
After the tofu was released, pour the delicious soup in the pot and finally sprinkle some decorations. Song Beiyun slapped his hands and said, "Come and serve the dishes!"
The dishes were served on the table, the fragrance in the room was filled with it, and everyone was eager to try it out.
"Don't be anxious." Song Beiyun pointed to the Taotao next to him: "Brother Yusheng, go, stick peachtao and light firecrackers."
While busy outside, Song Beiyun saw someone on duty at the secret sentry not far away. He turned around and took a lot of money out, and came to the secret sentry: "You can share this money with your brothers. It's not easy for anyone to celebrate this big holiday. Please take more burdens."
"This... Lord Song, I dare not take responsibility for it."
Joke, who dares to take Song Beiyun’s money? Even Wang Daban’s head hurts when he sees him. If a pawn like them takes his money, can he still have the life to go back?
"Hold it." Song Beiyun stuffed the seal into their arms: "If these moneys fall to the ground, you will die."
The masters of the inner circle quickly put the tickets in a hurry, and then they reacted and bowed to thank Song Beiyun.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Song Beiyun thanked him and turned back. He always had a characteristic of doing things, that is, he liked to be a boy with money, but no one who did his job was unhappy. Even if he didn't like this person, he had to take good care of Song Beiyun even for money.
In fact, these days are the days with the highest probability of mutiny, but Song Beiyun believes that these people will not be so smart. It is not that they look down on the heroes in the world, but that they really think that these people have poor IQ.
Because if it was really scheduled to be released in these few days, there would not be any burning Song Beiyun that day. It is likely that a team of fully armed soldiers would come to surround Xiao Song and kill him.
As I said, the most unbearable thing in the world is thinking. Some things are accompanied by causes and consequences. Once you think about them, you will be extremely clear and you don’t have to worry too much. Is Kong Ming’s magic trick really relying on fortune-telling?
Of course, Xiao Song didn't have enough clues on hand now, so he couldn't assume what they were going to do, but the longer the delay, the better. In a few days, I'm afraid that 800 miles will be coming. At that time, it was not a simple tiger talisman, but the emperor's personal order of the alchemy iron voucher monk Fang Baojian. At that time, Song Beiyun could start a big cleaning.
Hey, it's interesting to say. He said it was low-key, but what was his low-key? If the rebellion was successfully suppressed, it would be bad when he went back. But Xiao Song was also prepared and had a solution, but he was just causing trouble. If anything else was not good, wouldn't it be a good show?
After pasting the peach talisman and igniting firecrackers, the New Year's Eve dinner started. As expected, his skills were unanimously recognized by everyone, especially the cumbersome and rich fried bacon made people feel appetite. Even a delicate girl like Miaoyan had three bowls of rice.
When Song Beiyun saw a table of people having fun eating, he was also very happy, but he always felt that something was missing. I think it was probably not the special programs on TV year after year and the "Spring Festival Overture" and "The Golden Snake Dance" that were played repeatedly every year.
Of course, there is no Spring Festival Gala. Although it is not necessary to watch it, turning on the TV and put it there is also a spiritual symbol, rustic and peaceful. For ten years, every year during the Chinese New Year, he will particularly miss the Spring Festival Gala that has been complained about by countless people.
This is probably... Only when you lose it can you understand what preciousness is.
And while the lights of thousands of families were burning, the woman from the White Lotus Sect and her two subordinates were sitting in the carriage eating dry food, holding a sword and imagining the future. She said she would have countless silk and satin, and gold, silver and treasures that were not only flowers. If Song Beiyun was here, she would definitely feel that they were like the kind of people who bought the lottery and were planning to spend five million before they even got the lottery.
It's a bit stupid, but in fact, from another perspective, this is probably the reason why this era supports people's rebellion - be an emperor and farm with a golden hoe!
But on the other side, this was not the case. Commander Li was in the restaurant to invite commanders from other brother camps, deliberately making people seem to have drunk a little and said some inappropriate words.
These words were naturally what Song Beiyun taught him, and Song Beiyun also said that as long as he said this, someone would come to him.
He was somewhat unbelievable, but his superiors gave the orders so, and what he could do was obey, so he naturally said many things in the past to behead him in a slightly drunk manner.
He didn't know what the result would be. If it was spread then and Song Beiyun didn't care about him, it would be really bad.
But what he didn't expect was that it was really as Song Beiyun said. After the banquet was dispersed, someone knocked on the door of the inn where he was staying late at night.
He first started to be polite, and then started to do ideological work for him. The attitude of "Brothers are for your own good" is actually very tempting. If Commander Li hadn't been given a vaccination by Song Beiyun a long time ago, it would be absolutely false to say that he was not moved.
But as Song Beiyun said, they were all the generals of the flag and the generals of the military and horses. Just think about it... There are only a few generals and a few commanders in the world, and a commander can give them to the general. In the end, wouldn't they be under the general and 800 marshals?
What is the difference between this and the straw troupe? After having this resistance in his heart, he became awake and began to communicate according to the other party's words in Song Beiyun's explanation.
"There are four camps in Jiangzhou and three camps in Xinzhou. If Brother Li can jointly carry out major events, Hongcheng will definitely be easily captured. At that time, we will encircle them together, and this prosperous place on Jiangnan West Road will be ours."
"But there are only two camps in Hongcheng, and it is hard to support the lonely tree." Commander Li's face was full of contemplation, as if he was moved: "Rebellion will be implicated in the nine tribes..."
"Brother Li, listen to your brother's advice. At that time, your camp will be the isolated island in the Jiangzhong. What's more, if you don't fight, you will be just a stinky hillock for the rest of your life. You don't know that the overall situation is almost settled. As long as the 8th day of the Lunar New Year begins, the star will be the time for the big event to be held together." The man's expression became excited: "And I will sit firmly in Jiangxi for two months, and I will be able to raise the banner in Lin'an. At that time, the dog court will be a lonely boat, and I will be able to enter Jinling City in a few days! Brother Li, don't you want to taste the delicate little ladies in Jinling City?"
