Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 238
When the new year comes, Gu Zhuang's family puts a large urn on the stove.

There is a layer of pork belly, a layer of radish, a layer of chicken, and a layer of fish in the urn, which is a good sign of perfection.

Even some families who are not so well-to-do are unwilling to make up for it this year. Naturally, they should be more frugal and cautious during the rest of the year. There is also plenty of oil and water, and every household is doing their best, and they are never too extravagant.

Gu Xiang also started cooking New Year's dishes in Gu Ji's big kitchen early on.

Her dishes this year are not as simple as those of the villagers. Apart from more than a dozen pots of 'Perfect Buddha Tiaojiao', there are also a lot of individual chicken, duck and fish.

Dozens of chickens are first stewed with large ingredients, the bones are crispy and the meat is rotten but there is no firewood, and then slowly smoked with firewood, the color is golden, and the black and white flowers are lying on the kitchen door with small persimmons. Gu Xiang was ready to move, so Gu Xiang had to teach it: "Although the bones of my chicken are rotten, but your little persimmon has a weak stomach, you must not eat it, do you understand, you can't eat it!"

"puff!"

Cherry couldn't help laughing.

Gu Xiang blinked, not angry at all, and said to Da Keai in a soft voice: "Today the cherry meat is left to you, not to her, be good."

Black and White Flower: "Ahh!"

Little Persimmon: "Ah, ah, ah!"

cherry:"……"

Gu Xiang put some firewood in with a smile, raised the corner of his eyes, and opened the system interface, only to see that his rigid system was also covered with a layer of red gauze, which looked quite festive.

Not only is it covered with a layer of red gauze, but there is also a big gift package for the New Year's event-'The picturesque country'!
This set is in the same series as Gu Xiangmai's 'Poetry and Painting'.

It's just that "poetic and picturesque" is just a recipe, while "picturesque scenery" is a banquet for New Year's events.

A banquet must have songs, dances, ostentation, and elegance.

Gu Xiang opened the product introduction and took a closer look, and suddenly found it very interesting. Even if it wasn't for the food, she still wanted to play, so she immediately became active, and called Lao Du and the others over to look at the stove. She got up and went to write the invitation.

Although it is said that family reunion is important during the Chinese New Year, at this time of year, everyone has to go home to rest, but people in mountain villages don't pay much attention to it.

Moreover, Gu Xiang made the New Year's dishes with his own hands, and solemnly wrote the invitation card to invite, presumably everyone would be happy to support the old and the young, and come out to support this event.

"Picturesque in the mountains and rivers" is a New Year's welfare event, a full-day banquet, including ingredients, water and wine, entertainers, and all decorations, but only 99 food spots, which is even lower than the price of a bone fracture.

Even if it was a note suffixed that might attract strange diners, Gu Xiang didn't take it as a shortcoming.

What is a diner?
It's her parents, no matter what, she welcomes them all.

Gu Xiang bought a stack of beautiful bronzing invitation cards, all of which were made of brocade, double-layered with gold and silver thread embroidery, and the name 'Gu Ji' was embroidered on it.

After receiving it, Gu Xiang admired it first: "Not bad!"

Not only is it good.

When Wang Zhixian received the invitation from the old dog, his eyes protruded when he saw it, and he almost didn't dare to reach out to accept it. He washed his hands several times before accepting the invitation with great care. Carefully placed it on my bookshelf, and decided not to take it with me when I went to the "Gu Ji" banquet. I made a shelf for it later, and prepared a good silk cloth to cover it well, so as not to fall dust and stain it. satin.

It's no wonder that Wang Zhixian is so careful. He is a person who cherishes calligraphy and paper. This whole invitation card not only looks luxurious, but also has a long-lasting fragrance, which is really a good thing.

29 On this day, God was not so beautiful. When we got up in the morning, there were dark clouds and heavy snow fell, but it melted when we entered the ground, and the mountain road was muddy and difficult to walk.

The fire in the back kitchen of 'Gu Ji' has not been extinguished since the dawn of the night, and the most time-consuming 'Buddha Tiaojiao' has been on the stove early.

In the hall of 'Gu Ji', countless palace lanterns were hung early in the morning, and the trees in the garden were also decorated with colored silk and ice sculptures.

Gu Xiang didn't even hold back, and took the two girls Qiuli and Yingying around the garden several times, and the scenery everywhere was breathtaking.

"The only problem..."

It just doesn't fit well with Gu Zhuang's environment, which makes people feel flustered.

It wasn't Gu Xiang who said this, it was the poor maids hired by the restaurant, who started to tie their hands and feet when they were cleaning the courtyard, saying that they always felt that they had strayed into the Dragon King's Crystal Palace, and they were very uneasy.Their ancestors have lived in this small mountain village for generations, and they have seen the most magnificent place, but it was built by Liu Chuanfu and Liu Yuanwai's family.
Fortunately, the young servant of Gu Xiang's family is the one who can "subdue the dragon and subdue the tiger", and the mere Crystal Palace can't scare him.

These palace lanterns and ice sculptures will never be seen again after the new year. Gu Xiang arranged all the errands for the back kitchen, and hurriedly led the little maids around him to go shopping in the garden.

The diners even stuck to the garden early and refused to leave.

A group of literati and inkmen headed by Wang Zhixian wrote no less than a hundred poems and articles in one go.

"uncle……"

Wang Yi, the nephew of Wangzhi County, arrived in Shouling County from his hometown only yesterday.

This year, he is eight out of ten. He has been selected as a scholar, and he can be called a young talent. His family sent him here to Wangzhi County, and asked him to run errands for his uncle. His uncle helped out, lest his uncle had no one to help him around.

Before coming, Wang Zhixian and Wang Yi's father had told him in advance that life would be very difficult after he passed.

According to Wang Zhixian, he is surrounded by wolves, and every step is dangerous. The danger on the surface is nothing, and what is even more terrifying is the danger hidden under the water.

And life is hard.

There is a king of Hades on his head, with little salary and a lot of work, no holidays, and eating bran and swallowing vegetables every day.

After listening to a lot, Wang Yi was very scared and apprehensive when he set off. Because he missed his uncle, he gritted his teeth and never flinched.

The Wang family is not hypocritical. When his uncle was not admitted to be an official, his parents and elders were often hungry. Even now that Wang Zhixian is an imperial official, the family has no money, and the elders are still very frugal.

When Wang Yi even practiced calligraphy, he finished writing on one side of the paper, and then turned it over to write on the other side. He would never change the pen if it became bald. Usually, he would go to the bookstore to copy a few books to earn pocket money when he was free. , a nerd who only concentrates on reading.

He is confident, he will not complain about suffering or tiredness, and he will definitely spend two years of hard work with his uncle to sharpen his body and mind.

The sun was just about to set, and the sky was not yet completely dark. The palace lanterns all over the garden were lit together, and the crystal ice sculptures were shining brightly, as beautiful as a fairy palace.

Wang Yi opened his mouth, but nothing came out.
