Space peasant girl: madly criticizing Xianggong for being weak and bullying

Chapter 117 Boiled Cabbage

I have been to an academy and read a book, which is something worth showing off according to common sense, but County Magistrate Shen feels that it is even more valuable because of Ning Dalang's "never"-you can hear such a level in the audience, if you study seriously , what will it look like in a few years?
Unable to bear the anticipation in his heart, he asked directly: "Do you want to enter the academy?"

Ning Dalang was in a daze for a moment. His sister had also asked him this question, and his eyes fell unconsciously on the little head protruding from the kitchen door frame.

Xiaoxiao's big black eyes are now round and round, like a cat. She is holding the door frame so hard that she is about to knock off a piece of rotten wood that has been in disrepair. It can be seen how much her sister cares about this matter. .

Ning Dalang laughed: "I want to, of course I want to." I thought about it in my dream.

County magistrate Shen asked tentatively: "There is a Bowen Academy in the county, and the teachers who teach are all talented. Do you want to go?"

Ning Dalang asked: "How can I enter that academy?"

County magistrate Shen narrowed his eyes and stroked his beard: "Take the entrance exam, or..." He smiled and said, "Ask the county magistrate for a letter of introduction, and you can get a place for admission immediately."

Ning Erlang's eyes flashed instantly, staring at the county magistrate like two lanterns, but as an insider of the real identity of the guest, he didn't want to surprise his parents, so he quickly looked away, as if he was covered in fleas, Began to be unable to sit still.

Ning Dalang fell silent, and when Xiaoxiao was serving a dish, he took the plate and said, "Then I really have to hurry up and study to take the exam."

Xiaoxiao glared at him behind her back, and he followed her glaring with a good temper, with a gentle smile, like a spring breeze.

Xiaoxiao couldn't get angry with such a brother at all, curled her lips, and put down the first dish.

Looking at the tender yellow cabbage wrapped together in front of them, everyone fell silent for a while.

Ning Fengnian and his wife looked at each other awkwardly, not knowing how to make things right.

Mrs. Shen was very educated and kept smiling, without any look of disgust in her eyes, while Shen Tianci tilted her head honestly: "Ning Xiaoxiao, are you eating this directly?"

Xiaoxiao shook her head, lifted the long-mouth pot in her hand, and poured the broth in the pot under the puzzled eyes of everyone.

Shen Tianci almost couldn't find his chin: "It's blooming, it's blooming!"

A miraculous thing happened. The tender cabbage, which was still very inconspicuous just now, unfolded its leaves under the washing of the broth, like lotus flowers blooming out of water.

Xiaoxiao said the name of the dish: "Boiling cabbage."

The broth was treated by her to be clear, and it really looked like white water, so everyone thought this dish was just interesting to look at, but County Magistrate Shen was still the first to put a piece of cabbage into his mouth, which was out of politeness , I never thought of a mouthful of surprises.

He covered his mouth, as if he couldn't believe it: "Isn't this pot filled with white water?"

Xiaoxiao frowned: "It's chicken soup that has been boiled all night."

Mrs. Shen moved her chopsticks right behind her, and her eyes were full of surprise at the moment: "It's delicious!"

Of course it is delicious. Boiled cabbage, a famous dish at the state banquet, has already absorbed the essence of the thick soup for a long time.

Without squinting, Xiaoxiao continued to report the name of the dish: "Boiled fish, the fish bones have been shaved, but you should pay attention when eating to prevent small spines from being cleaned."

After putting down this dish, she ran back non-stop, and brought out other dishes from the kitchen with her brothers who came with her, including the family's favorite "Ruyi Bao" and "Crystal Shrimp Dumplings" recently. After the dishes were put on the table, the gazes of County Magistrate Shen and Mrs. Shen changed from admiration to curiosity to amazement.

They thought that no matter how exquisite the farm food was, it was just vegetables with greener leaves and tender tips. Who would tell them what half of the dishes on the table were that they had never heard or seen before?
