After marrying a rough man, I played mahjong to support Shoufu

Chapter 172

Early the next morning, Shen Xian took Zhao Shun to the nearby morning market and bought a piece of the freshest butter.

Then I skillfully bought star anise, cinnamon, pepper and other aniseed ingredients in the seasoning shop.

Thinking of Yan Chongluan's greediness, Zhao Shun specially bought a huge piece of beef, rented a carriage and transported various ingredients to Yan's house.

Knowing that both Shen Xian and Zhao Shun were here, Yan Chongluan quickly came out to greet him, seeing such a big piece of beef being carried out, his mouth spit up sharply.

"I heard magpies calling when I woke up today, so there is something delicious!"

Shen Xian looked at him with a smile and asked: "Mr. Yan, you said you wanted to build a hot pot and copper stove at the beginning, so you didn't do it, did you?"

"I did, of course I did, this is the first thing I do when I come back." With a big wave of his hand, Yan Chongluan sent the housekeeper to get the boiler ready.

After entering the Yan's mansion, Shen Xian took Zhao Shun to meet the two elders of the Yan family. After exchanging pleasantries, Shen Xian started to cook and prepare the ingredients for the hot pot at noon.

After Yan Chongluan continued to describe how delicious the hot pot was, Mrs. Yan and Master Yan raised their expectations, and they waited anxiously for the so-called hot pot.

For lunch, it was still the Eight Immortals table made of pear blossom wood.

There is a copper stove in the center of the table, which is twice the size of Shen Xian's house, and the boiling red butter base is bubbling.

Plates of beef on the table were sliced ​​as thin as cicada wings, lamb tripe, dried shrimp, crab, and tender baby dishes. There were more than [-] kinds of them in total, almost filling the table.

Smelling the tangy aroma of butter, Mrs. Yan's appetite increased greatly.

"It's so fragrant, I can't wait."

Shen Xian covered his mouth and smiled, "Then let's start eating."

Mrs. Yan and Master Yan were a little unfamiliar at first, so they picked some light-tasting vegetables to rinse, and then praised Shen Xian endlessly.

As for Yan Zhongluan, as a skilled veteran, where is the soul of the natural way of hot pot ingredients, he calmly put slices of fatty beef rolls in front of him, and cooked them one after another.

Master Yan is a fine person, seeing that his son only ate that one, he knew that this kid was hiding a trick, so he quickly picked up a piece of tender beef and put it in the pot.

When the beef turned gray and curled slightly, Master Yan took a sip, his eyes were about to pop out.

He directly raised his sleeves, took two plates from Yan Chongluan, put them in front of himself, and blew his beard and said: "You kid actually wants to eat alone! It's outrageous!"

Mrs. Yan gave Master Yan an angry look, and said in a calm tone, "Look at you, you're such an adult, you even grab things with your son, and you're not afraid of the laughter of the two juniors..."

Before the words were finished, Master Yan boiled a piece of beef and stuffed it into Madam Yan's mouth.

Mrs. Yan chewed lightly, her slender phoenix eyes narrowed slightly.

"Chongluan, you are indeed a bit too much, and you don't even remind mother when you have such a good thing."

Yan Chongluan's face tightened slightly, he quickly protected the beef in front of him.

Shen Xian and Zhao Shun looked at each other, with a deep smile in their eyes, this family is so interesting.

Half an hour later, the dinner table was swept away like wind and clouds, except for some side dishes with large portions, the meat was almost swept away without even scum.

Yan Chongluan supported his stomach and leaned on the chair, showing no airs.

Mrs. Yan held her belly tightly to keep herself graceful, but her stomach was already full.

Seeing them like this, Shen Xian felt a sense of nostalgia in her heart, thinking that when she went to eat buffet hot pot for the first time, she also came out with the help of the wall.

After filling in the appetite, Yan Zhongluan finally returned his mind, and sat upright with difficulty and asked, "Brother Zhao, how did the discussion go about yesterday?"

"There are already countermeasures, but if you want to succeed, you have to ask Brother Yan for help."

Madam Yan moved her ears, and asked softly: "What's the matter, maybe you've encountered some trouble?"

Shen Xian had a helpless expression, and spoke slowly and softly about the injustice that Zhao Shun had encountered.

Mrs. Yan patted the table after hearing this, "This is on the Yan family's shoulders. On the day of the chamber of commerce meeting, those bastards from Futai will definitely not be able to get off the stage!"

Master Yan thought for a while and said: "This matter is not difficult, but it is best to let those scholars complain first, otherwise it will be bad for the government to settle accounts after autumn."

Yan Chongluan shook his head slightly and said: "Father, I am afraid that these scholars will be very difficult to be useful. The rankings have not been released yet, and it is difficult for those scholars who have not won to blame Li Hong."

Jiang Yan's family had scruples, and Shen Xian didn't want to embarrass them, she immediately said: "If it doesn't work, then let it go, and I'll think of other ways."

"Exactly, what is difficult for the strong is not what the gentleman does." Zhao Shun also echoed.

The two men acted frankly, which made the second boss of the Yan family take a look at them more and more.

Yan Chongluan rolled his eyes slightly, and suddenly had an idea.

"By the way, don't the Tang family also want to participate in the business meeting? Let's take advantage of the perfume to make a good use of the Tang family, and let that dude Tang Buku follow us to testify against Li Hong for taking bribes."

Mrs. Yan let out a 'heh' in a sarcastic tone when she heard the words, "That ignorant brat from the Tang family actually went to take part in the examination. It's really a donkey's face and a horse's face."

Things took a turn for the worse, Shen Xian showed joy, "Then let's make a deal like this."

Zhao Shun nodded slightly, and said coldly: "This Tang man has repeatedly provoked, and he should pay a price."

"Huh? Has this person offended Mr. Xiang?"

Once Shen Xian's temperament changed, the air pressure around him was not right.

"Well, yesterday I ordered my servants to do it, but it's a pity that they are not my opponents."

"Then we have to teach him a good lesson." Shen Xian clenched his fist tightly.

Mrs. Yan saw that the husband and wife had such a good relationship, she couldn't help but glanced at her son, she hadn't seen him bring back the girl after being such an adult, she couldn't do anything better than a hot mouthful.

After lunch, Shen Xian bid farewell and left Yan's mansion, and went to the mahjong parlor, while Zhao Shun and Yan Chongluan called Liu Qing to visit the customs of Yuhua Prefecture.

In the mahjong parlor, Shen Xian rarely met an opponent, it was a middle-aged woman in her forties, she was dressed in jewels, and she played cards very well.

Shen Xian's luck is full, but he can barely draw with her.

A sneer appeared on the corner of the middle-aged woman's lips, and she mocked: "I heard that you have won [-] games in a row, and I still think you are some kind of incredible master, but that's all."

Shen Xian looked at her with eyes facing each other, "This madam speaks so arrogantly, haven't you won yet? Aren't you afraid that the wind will flash your tongue?"

For this kind of person who has nothing to find fault with, Shen Xian will naturally not be soft-hearted, she moves her finger joints, intending to teach her a good lesson.

"If you don't accept it, let's have another game and let my wife teach you how to behave." The middle-aged woman did not know where the arrogance came from, and her words were full of confidence.

"Then stop talking nonsense and start."
