Whose little lady is so crazy?

Chapter 505: The Country Bum who Has Never Seen the World

When Lan Zechen heard her agreement, he wanted to ask the driver to move the small chair over. After all, there were ten people and there were ten small stools. If he shamelessly came over and took one, one of them would have to eat standing, which was not good.

But before he could say anything, he saw the children had brought three more small chairs over and moved the original chairs around.

They listened to his conversation with the young lady, and when they heard her response, he brought chairs to the three of them so quickly without even waiting for her to speak?
No, no, that's not the point. When they go out, it's fine if they bring tables and chairs with them, but they actually brought extra? They really don't mind the trouble!

Seeing that three more sets of bowls and chopsticks were added to the table, he had to eat the food that was at Lan Zechen's mouth, and he quickly swallowed the other two food back into his stomach.

He asked his people to bring the food they brought, but did not specify what to bring. The coachman Jingui and the guard Liu Zhaoqiang thought that their master was not a petty person. Besides, the lady had prepared several kinds of food and told them to eat them as soon as possible or they would go bad, so they all brought them over.

Lan Zechen was just about to ask them to put the food on the long table, but when he saw the dishes brought up by the children, they were all cold dishes, served in fine blue and white porcelain plates.

"Leave it to them." Lan Zechen said.

Upon hearing this, the coachman and the guard handed the things in their hands to Tian Quan and the others, and watched them take them, unpack them, cut what needed to be cut and put them on the plates, and put what needed to be heated on the makeshift cooking table.

"Please take a seat, all three of you." After Hong Xiaoduo made a brief introduction, Quan Jinghuai greeted the other party.

"Thank you, we'll both eat the same thing." Guard Liu Zhaoqiang said quickly.

After hearing this, Quan Jinghuai was thinking about how to respond appropriately, when Lan Zechen spoke up: "The master asked you to come together, so just sit down, why are you wasting words?"

"Yes." The two of them hurried forward and prepared to sit down, but seeing that the group of children were still busy, they felt that it was not appropriate for them to just sit there and wait for food, so they hurried over and wanted to help, but there were enough people at home and they had no chance to help at all.

"We are all away from home, so just be casual." Hong Xiaoduo looked at the two people who were despised as useless by their master and invited them to sit down again.

Lan Zechen was not the kind of person who was harsh on his subordinates, so naturally he wouldn't really get angry and scold them.

Looking at the finely polished wooden chopsticks in his hand, Lan Zechen identified them and found that they were made of chicken wing wood!
The ones used by ordinary people were all made of bamboo or ordinary wood, while the masters of wealthy families, as well as the royal family, princes and officials used gold, silver, and ivory from foreign countries. For example, he used silver.

Chicken wing wood is a mid-range wood among the rosewoods. It has a unique texture and the longitudinal section can form patterns of mountains, rivers and figures. It has a strong cultural flavor and is deeply loved by literati and scholars.

Furniture and tea sets made of chicken wing wood, and fan handles and ribs in the hands of literati and poets.

This was the first time that Lan Zechen had seen chopsticks made of chicken wing wood.

Oh, there were several dishes on the table in front of him that he seemed to have seen for the first time.

Probably to make it easier to pick up the food, each dish has two plates, placed on both sides.

The ingredients of one dish look familiar, a bit like chicken feet? But why does the skin on the feet look so soft?
But, who would cook with chicken feet?

Lan Zechen shifted his gaze and looked at the other dishes. After identification, he found several other parts of the chicken: the braised chicken legs, the middle part of the chicken wings were fried, and the tip of the wings were braised.

? Oh my god, there is even a whole plate of chicken heads? It looks like it is braised, but it has chili and other seasonings! Lan Zechen couldn't help but look at Tianxuan. He made all the dishes, so if there were no braised beef tendons, braised beef, and braised pork on the table, this table could be called a full chicken feast!

Do they particularly like eating chicken? Or is there a special custom in their hometown that they have to eat chicken on the 16th day of the first lunar month? Eating a lot of chicken?
Similarly, the coachman Jingui and the bodyguard Liu Zhaoqiang were just as surprised as their master. They looked at the dishes in front of them with chopsticks in their hands. They had seen and eaten the dishes cooked together, but when they were cooked separately, they looked a little unfamiliar.

Seeing these three people like this, Hong Xiaoduo suppressed her laughter and said, "Tianxuan, you cooked all the dishes. Please introduce the names of the dishes to the three guests."

Tianxuan quickly stood up and introduced the dishes one by one: "Tiger skin chicken feet, garlic chicken wings, braised chicken legs, braised chicken wing tips, spicy chicken heads, stir-fried chicken gizzards and hearts, stir-fried chicken intestines, Kung Pao chicken, stir-fried chicken blood and chicken liver, and stewed chicken skeleton with mushrooms."

After the introduction, Tianxuan pursed her lips and sat down.

Except for A Ping who was absent-minded and didn't care about the reactions of the three guests, everyone else saw the surprised reactions of the three guests.

Everyone watched while trying not to laugh.

"Is this Kung Pao Chicken fried with chicken breast?" Lan Zechen pointed at the dish and asked Tianxuan. All other parts of the chicken matched, except the breast.

Tianxuan smiled and nodded: "Yes."

"Oh my God, there's only chicken feathers and chicken farts... Ouch, why are you kicking me?" The coachman Jingui didn't finish his surprised words and asked the guard sitting beside him in confusion.

As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I immediately realized that it was indeed inappropriate to mention chicken butt at the dinner table, especially at someone else's dinner table.

"Well, are there any special rules for eating these today?" After glaring at Jingui, Lan Zechen looked at Hong Xiaoduo curiously and asked.

Hong Xiaoduo smiled and glanced at Tianxuan, and said: "Pavilion Master, don't think too much, there is no reason or explanation. The only reason is that my children are kind-hearted. They spent the New Year here and became familiar with the vegetable and meat sellers in the market. There was an old man whose son came to take him to live with him, but the chickens he raised at home had not been sold yet, and it was not easy to take them because the journey was long.

Someone asked him to come to my child, and he was so soft-hearted that he bought more than ten chickens.

If we don’t eat it this way, it will be inconvenient to carry it around while it’s still alive. So, we just burn it like this.”

So that's what's going on. Lan Zechen, his master and his servant suddenly realized what was going on and looked at Tianxuan with approval.

"This is amazing. So many dishes were cooked in less than half an hour." The guard praised.

Although I haven't tasted the food yet, I know that they are not just random dishes. To be honest, they looked a bit weird at first, but after hearing the name of the dish and the reason, I immediately felt that it must be delicious.

"The chickens were slaughtered in the morning before we set off, and some were marinated in advance." Tianxuan, who was praised by outsiders, said embarrassedly.

"Master, please don't be disgusted. Come and try it." Hong Xiaoduo greeted with a smile.

Lan Zechen also nodded in response, he was sorry for bothering her, this was a way of eating that he had never tried before, how could he dislike it? This was also the first time he felt like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world...
