Before serving the dishes, Wei Lan specially washed his face with soap.

She likes the way her temple hair is wet and sticking to her cheeks. The contrast between her jet-black hair and her porcelain-white face is impressively clean.

Yes, she just wanted to impress Duanmu Chang'an, she didn't mean to seduce, most of the men that a 12-year-old shriveled girl could seduce were the bians like Mr. Lu, and no one wanted to make friends with bians.

As an adult, it is perfectly normal to accumulate contacts for the future.

She comes from a modern age with a good family background. She graduated from university and has ancestral craftsmanship. She needs culture and skills and skills. She really doesn't want to marry a small farmer who digs food in the fields and has no common language.

She had been divorced once in her previous life, and something happened after the divorce procedure was completed.

Lessons can be described as painful.

Wei Lan doesn't want to make the same mistake again in this life, or even in the next life - he and she would rather be single for the rest of their lives than find another make-shift.

She tidied herself up quickly, put a few dishes on two wooden trays with her own hands, covered them with Li's newly made covers, and left the kitchen with Wei Daya.

Old Mrs. Wei was feeding the only three remaining chickens in the yard. When she saw her come out, she immediately narrowed her eyes with a smile, and even pouted her mouth in Xici's room needlessly.

Wei Lan blinked in agreement, but shook her head helplessly in her heart, and whispered to Wei Daya: "Sister, if he doesn't ask, let's not say anything." She lost face last time, and this time she has to find a way Get it back, even if you can't get it back, you can't be more ashamed.

Wei Daya nodded heavily. Although the eldest son was good-looking, she just felt terrified and became nervous when she saw him.

At Duanmu Chang'an's request, Mr. Wei's family ate meals in the main room as usual, and he himself ate in the Xici room.

When Wei Lan knocked on the door and entered, there were only Duanmu Chang'an sitting cross-legged on the kang and the guard standing in the corner as the background board.

Duanmu Changan looked over upon hearing the sound, nodded, and said, "I'm sorry."

Seeing that Aya Wei didn't answer, Wei Lan said, "You're being polite."

The sisters brought the dishes to the table.

The household utensils for serving dishes are porcelain brought by Duanmu Chang'an, with simple and elegant patterns, and the porcelain is white and delicate, which is very suitable for displaying dishes.

The poached chicken is evenly sliced ​​and topped with cucumber flowers and chopped shallots for garnish.Roasted oysters with garlic sauce are meaty and tender, fried cabbage is fragrant and refreshing, and sweet and sour pork ribs are bright red and oily...

The dishes are ordinary, but the taste and appearance are good, which should be the ultimate for Lijia Village.

Duanmu Chang'an finally had a gleam of joy in his eyes, and before Wei Lan went out, he said two words concisely: "Not bad."

Wei Lan raised the corners of her lips, turned her head, and was about to smile, but saw Duanmu Changan put an oyster into his mouth, and closed his eyes contentedly.

This man is a real foodie.

She was inexplicably disappointed, but she became happy again the moment the door was closed. It's good to be a foodie, and it's her contacts.

……

Weige came back late, and it was already one watch when he got home.

He went back to the backyard to wash and change into clean clothes.

When he was about to go out, he asked Wei Yan who was tanning the rabbit skin: "Sanya, what kind of person is the prince?"

Wei Yan said: "I like to carry it, I don't like to talk a lot, and I don't like to drop the book bag, so Dad, you just do it."

That is high above.

It's not easy to deal with.

Weig felt a little cold in his heart.

Mrs. Xu straightened his clothes, and said: "The child is not very old, that is, fifteen or sixteen years old, Sanya father doesn't need to think too much."

"Hush..." Wei Yan signaled the two of them not to talk, "It seems that someone is here."

Xiao Shitou leaned over to look at the window, and said, "The eldest son is here with his guards, and Brother Dashu and Brother Qin Zai are also there."

Wei Yan paused, Qin Zai came back from Hai'an Mansion, when did this happen?That magistrate is a corrupt official, I don't know how he did in the exam.

She thought for a while, wiped her hands, then got up too, and followed Weige to greet him.

Duanmu Changan was very polite, meeting Weige as a junior, which made Weige very happy, but he didn't climb up the pole because of this, he was not flattering, and he didn't have a scholarly spirit.

The old house looked even more dilapidated under the pale moonlight. Weige didn't have the courage to invite distinguished guests into the house. He turned his head and spotted the open space in front of the window, so he asked Mrs. Xu to put a candle by the window, Several people sat down on a few stone blocks that Wei Yan specially turned over.

Wei Yan moved out the small kang table and placed it among several people.

Mrs. Xu made the tea herself.

"How did you do in the exam?" Wei Ge asked Qin Zai.

Wei Yan hung the tanned leather under the window on the other side, then stood still, her eyes fell on Qin Zai's side face, she also wanted to know the answer.

Now, Qin Zai's achievements are not only his, but also hers.

"It's okay." Qin Zai seemed calm, but he was full of confidence.

Weige smiled and said, "Haha, young people are awesome. If the leader of our case in Li County has the confidence, then Third Uncle will congratulate you first."

"Thank you, Third Uncle." Qin said, cupping his hands.

Both of them were smiling, but neither of them reached their eyes.

Wei Yan shook her head, thinking, Qin Zai looked down on Wei Ge, and Wei Ge also didn't like Qin Zai's targeting of his daughter, the two of them hadn't spoken a word for a year, but today they got together by virtue of Duanmu Chang'an. He's a scholar, so he can pretend, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sit still.

Duanmu Chang'an also opened his mouth when the conversation between the two of them settled down, and asked Wei Yan, "Has that rabbit been cleaned up yet?"

Wei Yan guessed what he meant, and said: "It's packed. Young master, how about we roast rabbits?" She can't cook, but barbecue is a must.

Duanmu Chang'an nodded.

"I'll call Second Sister and ask her to bring some more meat and spices." Wei Dashu trotted to the front yard.

Wei Yan glanced at Qin Zai subconsciously, and found that the latter glanced at Duanmu Changan warily.She rubbed her nose and thought, this is shooting herself in the foot.

Wei Lan and Wei Daya came very quickly, and they had just chatted about the weather before their sisters arrived.

Wei Yan fetched a fire bag and lit the firewood.The firewood was prepared by Mrs. Xu in the house before it rained. It was very dry and the fire was very bright. She sat down by the campfire and began to peel wooden sticks with a kitchen knife.

The hand holding the knife is stable, and the falling sawdust is even.

Duanmu Chang'an's eyes fell on Wei Yan's slender but rough hands, and he didn't move for a long time.

Weige coughed uncomfortably, and said: "My girl was raised wild, she used to like to fight with her fists, but now she doesn't fight anymore, but she is obsessed with hunting again, she's very skinny, alas... the girl can't help her, she can't control her. .”

Duanmu Chang'an knew that he might have misunderstood, but he didn't look away, let alone explain, he just said lightly: "Just be happy."

Wei Yan's every knife is just right, he likes the beauty of the combination of strength, proficiency and precision so much, he can't bear to leave his eyes.

Qin Zai smiled when he heard this, and withdrew his attention from Wei Lan, who was marinating pork, and said: "What the eldest son said is very true, living in the country is just for the sake of being comfortable and happy, Sanya has Sanya's future, Sanya Don't worry, Uncle."

There's nothing wrong with him not thinking deeply about what he said, but it didn't sound so good to Weige's ears. What does it mean that Sanya has Sanya's future? Does it mean that Sanya can only be a country woman in this life?

Who dares to say that I will not pass the exam in my life?

Weige was angry and wanted to refute, but he was worried about Duanmu Chang'an, he didn't have the same knowledge as the younger generation.

Wei Yan was so nervous that she couldn't hear the twists and turns in those tunes, and even if she could, she wouldn't care.However, she just needed such an opportunity to say what she wanted to say.

She put the sharpened wooden stick on the plate next to her and said, "Father, Qin Zai is right. Life is not easy. I don't know if I can close my eyes today and open them tomorrow. If I can be happy for a day, I will be happy." Heh one day. Just like Brother Qin Zai, he thinks he did well in the exam and there is no big problem, but I don’t think so. Everyone says that his son is like a father. That son of Liu Zhifu is not a good guy. It will be difficult for Jae-ge to get the case. So, don't think about anything, just be happy when you can."

"What nonsense are you talking about, girl!" Xu, who was helping to skewer the meat, reprimanded Wei Yan, and then quickly said to Qin Zai, "Qin Zai, the third aunt is telling you, don't listen to my third aunt. nonsense."

Qin Zai put down the teacup tightly in his hand, and said with a smile: "It's okay, Third Aunt is too polite, Sanya is quite right, I am prepared for this matter, but I am the chief case in Li County, even if I If you can’t get the first place in the exam, there is no problem in getting a good ranking.”

Duanmu Chang'an glanced at Qin Zai unexpectedly, and said, "It's best if you think so."

Wei Yan nodded in her heart, with Duanmu Changan's words, her mission today was complete.

As long as Qin Zai didn't expect to take the lead in the case, he would naturally not feel too disappointed when the results were announced.

very good.

There was a wind at night, the firewood burned quickly, the smoke cleared, and the charcoal was bright red.

Wei Yan put the marinated large piece of rabbit meat on a wooden skewer, put it on the fire and started roasting.

Duanmu Chang'an got up suddenly, walked to Wei Yan, squatted down, and stretched out his hand to Wei Yan, "I will try too."

Wei Yan was kind and generous, handed him a dressed rabbit leg, then passed the small stool under his buttocks, and said loudly: "The meat roasted by yourself is the most delicious, who of you wants to roast it."

The gentleman is far away from the kitchen, Wei Ge is not sensitive, and he is old, it is not convenient to hang out with young people, just sit and drink tea.

Wei Daya was nervous and didn't want to participate, so she went back to the front yard without saying a word.

Wei Lan also sat down, grabbing a handful of meat skewers strung with peeled wattle twigs.

Qin Zai also came over, took two skewered meat skewers from Wei Lan, and casually grilled them.

The smell of meat began to become more intense. Bits of oil fell on the charcoal, first smoking, turning red, and then turning black, and the light of the fire gradually dimmed.

Looking at the charcoal, Duanmu Changan opened his mouth again, and said: "Barbecue is a delicate job. Spices, charcoal fire, and the experience of the person who grilled meat, all three can affect the taste of barbecue. When the fire is fired, the weapon forged is a good weapon. A good weapon is very important to the soldiers who defend their homes and the country, but we will report to the Ming court and reward those who have made great contributions to this.”

This is the longest sentence he has said since he entered Wei's house.

Wei Yan's heart tightened, and he thought to himself, did he have doubts about himself, or did he just want to find advanced iron-making technology?

She looked at Wei Lan, Wei Lan came from modern times, did she know something about steelmaking methods?Could this be her chance?
