Chapter 50: Burning with Anger
Although according to the agreement, Mu Fan must fry a hundred plates of Hejian vegetables, and taste them in person before he can become a teacher. But when Mu Fan fried the fiftieth plate, Qi Lian stopped it. Cooking continuously, and there is no half-point difference, Mu Fan's ability has been recognized by her, and there is no point in doing it any more.
"Master Jiao, you have accepted an amazing apprentice. Qi Lian said sincerely.
"So-so. Jiao Xiang was modest, but his face was already happy.
"Sister Lian, thank you for teaching me how to fry river tip vegetables. Mu Fan took off his apron, respectfully bowed to Qi Lian, took out the 10,000 taels of silver ticket paid to him by Shang Que from his arms, and handed it to Qi Lian, "I came in a hurry today, and I didn't have any preparations." This silver ticket is a little bit of my heart, please be sure to accept it. ”
"Mu Gongzi has completed his studies, and he relies on his super comprehension and learning ability, and I can't accept this money. Qi Lian waved her hand and refused, if Mu Fan followed her to study for two or three years before becoming a teacher, then Qi Lian could accept some tuition. But ask yourself, except for writing a secret book for Mu Fan and demonstrating the cooking method by the way, Qi Lian didn't teach Mu Fan anything, and the money was hot.
"Xiaolian, no matter what, without your help, my apprentice would definitely not be able to learn to fry Hejian vegetables. Jiao Xiang smiled and said, "Since he has little heart, you can accept it." ”
"Yes, you not only taught me, but also provided me with ingredients, you have to accept this money anyway, otherwise I will have a troubled conscience. Mu Fan said sincerely.
"My pot of river tip vegetables is worth more than 20 taels, and I can sell it for a lot of money just for the fifty plates you fry. Qi Lian smiled and said, "These fifty plates of fried Hejian vegetables should be your heart." If Mu Gongzi doesn't dislike it, we can make friends, between friends, not about money. ”
"What a friend. Mu Fan said happily: "If Sister Lian doesn't dislike it, how about we be commensurate with sister and brother in the future." ”
Qi Lian didn't expect Mu Fan to say this, so she happily agreed. At Qi Lian's strong request, Mu Fan put away the silver ticket. The three chatted for a while, and after Mu Fan agreed to visit Qi Lian often, he and Jiao Xiang said goodbye together.
Sitting in the carriage, Mu Fan closed his eyes and turned on the system by resting. Just when he successfully fried the first pot of Hejian vegetables, the system's prompt sounded, thinking that it was a reminder that the task was completed.
The host has successfully learned to cook a vegetarian dish, the first stage of the task has been completed, and the reward has been distributed to the backpack, which can be withdrawn and used at any time.
Overall progress of stage tasks: 1/5
The next stage of the mission will be started from time to time.
Seeing the content prompted by the system, Mu Fan breathed a sigh of relief. If it's really a non-stop release task, he really can't come. Although you can't control it from time to time, you can always take a break.
opened the backpack, and there was indeed a red envelope in it. As for the improvement of physical fitness, it will be completed automatically when he returns to the human world.
Glancing at Jiao Xiang, who was resting with his eyes closed, Mu Fan quietly opened the red envelope. With a flash of golden light, a card appeared in Mu Fan's mind.
Kitchenware redemption card, with this card, you can exchange a free item in the system mall.
"That's not a bad reward. Mu Fan said secretly, with this exchange card, he can save a lot of money when he goes back to buy props. There is no cheap kitchenware in the mall, which is equivalent to giving Mu Fan tens of thousands of silver tickets in disguise, and he is still quite satisfied.
Back in Luxiang City, Jiao Xiang suddenly remembered that he had made an appointment with an old friend to talk about this afternoon, so he said hello and got out of the car first. Mu Fan, who went to Jiaofu alone, happened to see a rouge gouache shop with good decoration. Thinking of Shi Niang and the two water spirit girls in the house, Mu Fan got off the carriage in advance.
Walking across the street and into the shop, a handsome young man stepped forward and said with a smile, "What does this boy want to buy? ”
"Buy a few boxes of rouge. Mu Fan replied.
"I wonder who Childe is going to give it to?" the young man asked, and there were many types of rouge, some suitable for young girls, some suitable for mature young women, and some for older women.
"Give it to my wife, and two little maids. Mu Fan said as he looked around.
"Childe is really a filial and compassionate person. The young man brought three boxes of rouge and introduced: "This red one is goldenrod rouge, which is made of high-quality red petals, in addition to preventing aging, it also has the effect of invigorating blood. It's worth eight hundred taels, and the son's wife will definitely like it. ”
"Hmm. Mu Fan picked up the rouge and looked at it, a box of eight hundred yuan should be considered superior. And in terms of packaging, it is indeed very exquisite, and it is very suitable for my wife. Mu Fan put down the rouge, lowered his head and pointed to the other two boxes, and asked, "What about these two boxes?"
"Oh, these two boxes are cotton rouge, made of comfrey, worth fifty taels, and it is also a good choice to give them to the maid. The young man replied that the average master rarely gave anything to the maid, and even if he did, he would not buy anything too valuable. I have to say that the two rouges recommended by the young man are very suitable, but Mu Fan doesn't like them very much. In his heart, he didn't regard Rose and Xiaohe as subordinates, and the fifty taels of rouge were really a little out of his hands.
"The rouge of the saffron is okay, but the rouge of this comfrey is too inferior, give me a good one, it's not bad money. Mu Fan waved his hand and said.
"Yes. The young man nodded hurriedly, and there were not a few young masters who took a fancy to their own family or other maids. Many of them were also willing to spend money for the maid, and the young man obviously classified Mu Fan into this category.
"Childe, you see, these two boxes are also golden flower rouge, made of high-quality pomegranate petals, five hundred taels each. The young man brought two boxes of rouge again and introduced them with a smile.
"This one is pretty much the same, wrap it up for me. Mu Fan took out the silver ticket and slapped it on the table, and said very proudly.
The young man smiled and wrapped the rouge separately, handed it to Mu Fan before picking up the silver ticket, and after finding the money, he respectfully sent Mu Fan out of the door.
Mu Fan, who was carrying the rouge, was in a very happy mood, whistling and walking back to Jiaofu. I went to meet my sister first and sent the rouge up. Although Mrs. Wang was blaming Mu Fan for spending money indiscriminately, she was still very happy in her heart.
After making the master happy, Mu Fan heard that Rose and Xiaohe were sweeping the floor in the back garden, so he shook his head and came to the back garden. Before he could enter, Mu Fan heard a man's angry scolding.
"What are you two eating, you haven't cleaned the yard yet, haven't you been beaten for a while, and your skin is itchy?"
"Steward Hu, we've been cleaning and haven't stopped. ”
Mu Fan could hear it clearly, it was Xiaohe's voice, and his tone was full of grievances.
"I dare to say that I am not lazy, it has been half an hour, and the courtyard is only half cleaned. Steward Hu sneered and said, "Don't think that if you become Mu Gongzi's maid, your status will be high." I tell you, as long as you are in Jiaofu, you can only listen to me, otherwise, I will let you go around without food. ”
"Steward Hu, this courtyard is usually cleaned by five people together, and it can't be cleaned for more than half an hour, but our sisters clean nearly half of it, which is already good. Rose replied unconvinced, "Besides, we should indeed listen to you in the house, but not only you. Could it be that your orders are still above the old lady and the son?"
As soon as Rose's words fell, Mu Fan heard a crisp snap, and Xiaohe exclaimed, "Steward Hu, why are you beating me Sister Rose." ”
"If I don't obey, I'm naturally going to fight, if you're not convinced, you can go and complain to the master, I want to see if the master believes me, or you cheap girls. Steward Hu sneered very smugly.
Hearing this, Mu Fan seemed to have a fire burning in his chest, gritted his teeth and walked into the back garden.
