Chapter 614: Following Shao Liulang
Four dishes and one soup, braised pork with green beans, pork belly with bean curd, chicken slices with green peppers, fried eggs with green onions, and cabbage and vermicelli soup.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan were not distinguished guests, so naturally their manners were not elegant.
However, the ingredients of this era are very fresh and original, and the dishes cooked in an iron pot over high flame are simple to prepare and taste good.
After they ate, they left.
Now that we have entered the city, we cannot return empty-handed.
It just so happened that Qiao Xuan, Xiao Qi and others went into the mountains to hunt pheasants and deer two days ago and ate them all, so they bought some fresh meat today to cook.
Originally, Qiao Xuan was planning to kill two fat hens today to make salt-baked chicken and crispy chicken, but she could do it in a few days.
The two went to the market to buy meat.
I bought two pork elbows, a piece of pork belly, two pork ribs, a pig stomach, and a pig heart. Seeing that there was fresh mutton for sale, I also bought a rack of lamb.
Tonight, I will cook half of the lamb chops with sauce, stew the other half with fresh mushrooms, and stir-fry a portion of twice-cooked pork. I will stew the pork belly and heart with marinade and eat them tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
Put the pork elbow near spring water at night to keep it cool, stew it with yam tomorrow, and take out half of it to make sweet and sour sauce.
I will use the pork ribs to make porridge at noon tomorrow. Add various diced mushrooms, fresh river shrimps, and a handful of chopped green onions. It will be so delicious.
The two men had bought the meat and were about to go outside the city gate to get the donkey cart when they suddenly saw Shao Liulang standing in front of the Liuhe Teahouse. He lowered his head and carefully tugged at the folds of his clothes, adjusted his collar, and smoothed his sleeves. Then he raised his head and chest, walked into the teahouse with vigor and grace.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan looked at each other, both showing some surprise.
"Who is he dating? He's so particular and so happy, husband. Should we go and take a look?"
Qiao Xuan was really curious.
Shao Liulang has always been conceited, but she has never seen him get so carried away and excited to this extent.
Shao Yunduan thought for a moment and said, "Let's follow them and see."
"That thing"
The two of them stored the meat they had bought at a familiar old dim sum shop and then went into the teahouse together.
After spending some money, Shao Yunduan easily found an excuse and quietly found out from the waiter which box Shao Liulang had entered.
The two men entered the box next to them, put their ears to the screen-like partition in the middle, and listened with bated breath.
This is thanks to the sound insulation effect of ancient partitions.
Not very good.
What's more, this is a small county town, where privacy is not important. After all, when you go to a teahouse to drink tea, as long as you have peace and quiet, it's enough. You won't specially invite people here to discuss secrets, so privacy is not a concern.
Hearing the sweet laughter of a young woman coming from next door, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan looked at each other in bewilderment.
This, this
When they listened again, they actually heard the woman asking Shao Liulang indirectly about Qiao Xuan, Shao Yunduan and the Shao family's first wife. Their hearts sank and they concentrated.
After listening again, Qiao Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and she leaned close to Shao Yunduan and whispered, "I heard it, the woman should be Zhao Ming from Mr. Zhao's family, the Miss Zhao who has a good relationship with Qiao Wei."
The woman's warm breath hit his ears and face, feeling itchy, numb, and soft. Shao Yunduan's heart rippled slightly and his face slowly began to heat up.
He was a little distracted.
Thinking that he shouldn't have such a reaction at this moment, he quickly suppressed his throbbing and stepped aside calmly: "Are you sure?"
