Everyone was attracted by the exclamation and looked in the direction where the sound was made.

The one who couldn't help but exclaimed was a daughter who had not yet been married. The eyes of everyone in the flower hall fell on her. She even faintly felt the sight of the male guest behind the screen, and her face suddenly turned red, and she wanted to cover her face with a handkerchief.

The daughter who came with her side gently pounded her with her arm and asked in a low voice, "Ayun, what's wrong with you? Everyone is watching!"

The girl named Ayun pointed at the maids who served the food with red faces, and lowered her voice to the people around her, "Sister Yuan, look at the things the maids are holding on the tray, and you will know why I was so surprised."

Following the direction of Ayun's finger, another daughter looked over and was immediately silenced on the spot. She widened her eyes and asked in disbelief: "All these are fresh vegetables?"

Ayun nodded, "Now you know why I can't help it."

The table Ayun was sitting on was closer to the door of the flower hall, and he was the first to see what was placed in the tray of the maids who came in.

The maids were well-trained and placed the trays on the table one by one.

The bright green color of those dishes was so tender that it almost dripped out of water.

There are spinach, green vegetables, lettuce, cucumber, water spinach, lettuce... and even winter melon and yam...

I'm afraid even a first-class official can't eat all these things in winter.

Some people even suspect that even the Regent, some vegetables cannot be eaten in the middle of winter, such as cucumbers and winter melons... These are vegetables that can only be eaten in early summer and late summer.

And in this flower hall, on the dining table in the Hou Mansion, it suddenly appeared, and it looked fresh and delicious at first glance.

From nobles to the people, you may not be able to eat one or two green vegetable leaves throughout the winter. Now you have almost moved all the vegetables from spring, summer and autumn to the table at once. All this makes people feel like dreaming.

Although the meat before was already very attractive, when this wave of vegetables was served, the shadow of the meat was gone in everyone's eyes.

Mrs. Mu's eyes were about to pop out, and she was wondering if the tender vegetables in front of her were her fantasy.

Where did the Hou Mansion get these vegetables? In winter, only the Rui Palace in the whole of Yanjing has fresh vegetables. Could it be that the Rui Palace gave it to him?

Is there anything that Yongxing Hou Mansion has with Prince Rui Mansion?

Since the beginning of winter, Mrs. Mu has never eaten green leafy vegetables.

Although the Mu Mansion is not an unknown person in Yanjing, the men in the mansion have only a small official position, and they don’t have many opportunities to get in touch with the Regent, let alone be rewarded with vegetables by the Regent, so Mrs. Mu naturally has no chance to try it out in winter.

After half a winter passed, Mrs. Mu only ate some cabbage and radish hidden in the cellar. Three meals were indispensable for meat. After eating this, she became angry. Several ulcers appeared in her mouth, and her tongue hurt even when she pressed her.

Now that I see so many processed vegetables placed on the table, Mrs. Mu is really greedy.

She even wanted to reach out to grab a leaf of vegetable and put it in her mouth to chew it to see what it tasted.

But soon she discovered a problem, and the next second, her brows tightly frowned.

These vegetables and vegetables that were brought up by the maid and placed in the exquisite porcelain plate were all raw, but they were not as cooked as before. How to eat this...

The cucumbers are fine, but those raw small greens, spinach, water spinach, can't just stuff them into your mouth like this, right? They are not animals!

After being surprised, this kind of question arose in the hearts of the entire flower hall.

The Hou Mansion was not trying to trick them on purpose, so that they could not eat it, right?

Before the guests in the flower hall began to whisper, Chen Yuntang stood up.

She had a smile on her face, and she spoke clearly, neither fast nor slow, like the spring breeze blowing through her ears, making people extremely comfortable. "I have prepared a pony of shisha for everyone today. This pony of shisha for only eating meat but not fresh vegetables will soon get greasy. So in order to make everyone happy, I specially prepared these fresh vegetables. The way to eat is the same as the meat I mentioned just now. Put it in a pot, cook it and dip it into the sauce, and take it as you eat it, which is very convenient and fresh."

After listening to her explanation, everyone realized that these fresh vegetables were also used for eating them.

As soon as Chen Yuntang finished speaking, an anxious customer had already picked up a chopstick of tender spinach that was about to drip and put it into a hot pot. The spinach was already tender, and after the boiling bottom of the pot became slightly soft, it could be picked up and eaten.

The middle-aged male guest didn't bother to stuff the speared spinach dipping sauce into his mouth.

The half-cooked spinach that had just been taken out of the boiling pot was very hot, but he wrapped it in his mouth all of a sudden. His face was wrinkled and his mouth kept inhaling and moving. However, no matter how hot he was, he was unwilling to spit out the spinach that had entered his mouth.

The people around him looked at him like this and were really worried about him.

When he swallowed the spike of spinach, people from a table and even half of the flower hall were watching him.

The person next to him asked quickly, "How is it, how does it taste?"

The middle-aged male guest had no time to nod, so he stretched out his chopsticks and picked up the spinach and put it into the pot. Then he quickly picked it up and put it in his bowl, and started to sniff the air.

The people next to him were stunned and realized after several seconds. They also hurriedly wanted to pick up spinach. Unfortunately, his movements were too slow and the spinach had been picked up by someone, so he had to turn around and pick up the small green vegetables next to him.

When everyone took the first bite, they finally understood why the middle-aged male guest had just nodded and had no time to say anything. It was so delicious!!

After the fresh vegetables are mostly cooked, they absorb the umami flavor of the soup and dip them in the slightly salty and fresh sauce specially prepared by Hou Fu. At this time, in this weather and environment, it is simply delicious!

This is not a snack that is not allowed on the street, it can be placed at a state banquet.

Soon, the whole flower hall was filled with the sound of eating, and the sound of drinking, socializing and greetings disappeared completely.

There is no way. Even if there are a lot of vegetables and meat on the table, it cannot resist everyone's enthusiasm. If you are not happy, you may not even be able to grab a piece of vegetable leaf.

Chen Yuntang saw that these male guests who were considered officials at least had eaten, as if they had been hungry for three years. She smiled helplessly and shook her head, and went with them. Today, she made these offerings to entertain them. She didn't have to despise them for being cruel in their eating habits.

Female guests are much more reserved than men. Even if they are delicious, they must always maintain etiquette when eating.

Under the guidance of the maids, the female guest placed meat and vegetables in the pot in order, and then dipped them in different sauces to taste.

Although the female guests were all not messy, the few dishes on the table were not much slower than the male guests.
