Chapter 373: First Taste of Preserved Eggs, Eyes Light Up
The third son, Fu Mingxiu, shrank his neck and stopped talking when asked by his grandfather.
He turned around and saw Leng Rongyue covering her mouth and laughing at him, with a helpless look on her face.
Although the three brothers of the Fu family, Fu Mingjun, Fu Mingqi and Fu Mingxiu, two of them were civil officials and one was a military general, they had all entered the court based on their achievements and abilities.
But, as long as you return home, you have to be like a dragon coiled up and a tiger lying down.
In front of the elders at home, they are just three younger generations!
"Your Highness Prince Yu, Yue'er, please come in and have breakfast!" Old Lady Xue greeted with a smile.
"Yes, madam!" Xiao Jingyu responded first.
"I'm coming, grandma!" Leng Rongyue immediately agreed and walked into the flower hall with Xiao Jingyu.
Fu Mingjun glanced at his brother who was looking listless, raised his hand and patted his shoulder, gave him a look that told him to wish him the best, and followed Xiao Jingyu and Leng Rongyue into the flower hall.
“Hey hey!…”
Fu Mingxiu gritted his teeth secretly as he watched the three ungrateful guys walking past him.
However, he who knows the times is a hero!
Fu Mingxiu smelled the strange aroma wafting from the hall...
Well, this must be another delicious dish created by Yue'er. You'd be a fool not to try it!
He decided to... follow in.
The worst that can happen is that my grandfather will glare at me!
Delicious food is here!
What did that sentence say?
If you are thin-skinned, you can’t eat;
Be thick-skinned and eat enough!
Thinking of this, Fu Mingxiu no longer hesitated, turned around and stepped into the flower hall.
I looked up and saw that my grandfather just gave me a blank look and ignored me. I was secretly happy in my heart.
Fu Mingxiu sat down at the bottom of the round table dejectedly.
Duke Anguo asked Xiao Jingyu to sit next to him.
Leng Rongyue was pulled by Old Madam Xue to sit next to her.
The servants in the hall had all left, and those who stayed were not outsiders, so there were no such things to be said.
The eldest master and his wife, and the second master and his wife also took their seats.
Seeing that everyone was sitting around the table, Leng Rongyue smiled and said, "Grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, second uncle, second aunt, His Royal Highness Prince Yu, and brothers, come and try the breakfast that Yue'er made. How does it taste?"
As Leng Rongyue spoke, she reached out and opened the lid of the small soup bowl in front of Old Madam Xue.
After hearing Leng Rongyue's words, everyone raised their hands to open the lids of the small soup bowls in front of them.
As the lid opened, hot steam and fragrance wafted out.
The small soup bowl was right in front of him, and the aroma was even stronger.
Everyone looked into the small soup bowl...
In the snow-white rice porridge, there are actually light pink shredded pork and emerald green onion flowers. The aroma rushes straight to the nose, and it makes you extremely appetizing just by looking at and smelling it!
But... why are there some black particles in this porridge?
What is this?
The porridge in the small soup bowl tastes completely different from the rice porridge we usually drink, and it has a special aroma!
Looking at the porridge in the small soup bowl, then at the other things on the table, everyone raised their heads in confusion and looked at Leng Rongyue.
The hot and sour melon strips and other side dishes are easy to recognize, but that big plate in the middle... what is that?
Why is it so dark?
And it's crystal clear.
Leng Rongyue looked at her grandparents, uncles and aunts, His Royal Highness Prince Yu, and brothers, all of whom were looking at the food on the table, and then at her. No one picked up the spoon or chopsticks to taste it, so she smiled and said, "Grandparents, uncles and aunts, His Royal Highness Prince Yu, brothers, this small soup bowl contains preserved egg and lean meat porridge.
It is made by adding shredded lean meat and chopped preserved eggs to rice porridge, and then boiling it with a variety of seasonings.
Oh, by the way..." Leng Rongyue said, pointing to the plate of preserved eggs with ginger juice in the middle.
The preserved egg pieces in the rice porridge are the same as those in this plate.
These black eggs are actually duck eggs, but they are made using a special process to achieve their current appearance and taste.
Because after it is made, patterns like ice flowers and pine flowers will appear on the discolored egg white, it is called Songhua Egg, also known as Preserved Egg or Changed Egg.
This dish is seasoned with minced ginger, vinegar, soy sauce, and sesame oil and is called ginger preserved egg.
The porridge made by chopping the century egg into pieces and cooking it with shredded pork is naturally called Century Egg and Lean Meat Porridge.
Also, these are the dumplings Yue'er made. Grandpa and grandma, uncle and aunt, His Royal Highness Prince Yu and brothers, please try them quickly. If they get cold, the taste will be bad."
After hearing Leng Rongyue's words, everyone at the table picked up their chopsticks and spoons, but looking at the plate of black duck eggs...
Oh no, it should be called Songhua Eggs, and I am still a little hesitant...
"Yue'er, are you sure this black egg... is really edible?" Fu Mingxiu pointed at the plate of ginger preserved eggs in the middle and asked Leng Rongyue.
“Of course you can, and it’s delicious!
Oh, but its taste is indeed a little special, and everyone’s taste is different, so I don’t know if everyone can get used to it! ”
As he spoke, Leng Rongyue stretched out his chopsticks, took a bite of the preserved egg and put it into his mouth, with an expression of great enjoyment on his face, "Mm, delicious, this taste... is amazing!"
Xiao Jingyu looked at Leng Rongyue, smiled, stretched out his chopsticks, and also took a bite of the preserved egg from the plate...
The next to pick up their chopsticks were Fu Mingxiu and Fu Mingjun.
The taste in their mouths made the three people's eyes light up at the same time, and then, the chopsticks in their hands reached out to the plate of ginger preserved eggs...
