Chapter 44: Bright and Bright
Even if a cultivator is nourished by the aura of heaven and earth, and his physical fitness surpasses that of ordinary people, he can go without eating or drinking for days, or even dozens of days, but if there is no Taoist method of "opening the valley", he will still be hungry and thirsty, and without the supply of food, his body will be malnourished and sick.
Legend has it that beyond the realm of Dacheng, it can really suck the wind and drink dew, do not eat the fireworks of the world, and enjoy the world like heaven and man.
When it comes to appetite, cultivators can eat much more than ordinary people.
Unless there is a reason or a last resort, who wants to starve without anything?
The dishes eaten in this era are either steamed or boiled, the practice is extremely monotonous, although the taste is natural and light, the most able to retain the original taste and nutrition of the food, but after eating for a long time, it will always be tasteless, which is like the cooking of later generations is diverse, changing and new.
Xiang Yue's new style of roast duck is different from each other, and it is difficult to sell it.
She calculated that the cost of a gluttonous duck was about four copper coins, the whole price was seven copper coins, and half was sold for four copper coins.
It may be too expensive for the poor, but in order to face the vast consumer base, it can also be sold for a quarter of the price, and the price is two copper coins, which can basically be afforded.
Thanks to the fact that her square stove was made larger, she could grill up to eight ducks at a time, and finally sold all sixty ducks before dark.
The business of the store is also driven by "gluttonous duck", many people sell duck at the take-out window, and they eat in the store, and order some wine and food by the way.
She is even more confident in her vision.
This is only the second day promised to Yue, there is such a good sales performance, and there are still three barrels of seasonings that are useless, so there is no hesitation, of course, Jia Chunmu went to order two hundred ducks.
Tomorrow on the third day, let the silver woman and a few of them see what the real strength is!
It was late at night, and although Xiang Yue felt tired after a busy day, his heart was excited, and he couldn't sleep for a while, so he opened the door of the store and walked out.
She had been barbeconing in the backyard all day, and she was able to catch her breath.
There were two thin figures standing outside the door of the store, holding small heads, looking at the takeaway window, and when they saw Xiang Yue coming out, they looked at her hands, as if she had food in her hands, and she looked salivating.
"Do you want to eat the sweet duck?"
Xiang Yue saw clearly that they were two little beggars in rags, with two small black feet, and they were probably attracted by the fragrance.
"We don't have any money, will you hit us?"
A little beggar who had grown a little bigger hurriedly stood in front of another beggar who was smaller than him, staring at Xiang Yue with a look of vigilance and expectation.
"Don't be afraid, my sister won't beat you."
Xiang Yue heard them say this, her nose couldn't help but sour, look at the older little beggar is only about ten years old, the other is even younger, five or six years old, two such young children look yellow and thin, even if they want to eat something, they are afraid of being beaten.
"Really won't hit us?"
The little beggar who was blocked showed half of his small head and opened a pair of innocent eyes.
Most of the people in the Tianxing Gate are helpless and miserable people, including abandoned orphans, widows, and the elderly, beggars who are outcast, poor people who are too sick to have money for treatment, and all kinds of people who are on the verge of despair, all of whom are rescued by Gandharva.
Xiang Yue himself lost his mother at birth, he was still mentally retarded, and he still didn't know who his parents were, if it wasn't for the rescue of Qiandapo, he would have died fifteen years ago.
At the beginning, Gandharva was merciful and took in these miserable people to give them a place to live, but she did not expect that now she would become so strong and form a force, and this purpose has remained unchanged to this day.
"Really, you see that your sister looks so gentle, how can she beat you? You are willing to follow your sister, and my sister will not let you go hungry again. ”
Xiang Yue was surprised how she could say the same thing as Huang Zijin.
The little beggar ran up with his whole body: "Sister, I'm so hungry. ”
"You don't lie to us?" The little beggar who was a little older hurriedly grabbed him, and he was not afraid of it.
"I don't lie to you! My sister is also an orphan like you, but it was my master who saved me and taught me to cultivate so that I could protect myself. My sister also wants to learn from Master, and in the future, you will all be my people, and my sister will teach you kung fu to defend yourself, okay? ”
"Well, we believe you!" The little beggar didn't think much of it, and immediately responded.
"It's really good, but now you can't eat fragrant duck, tomorrow my sister will roast it for you. Come, tell my sister, what's your name? ”
Xiang Yue stretched out his right hand and rubbed his two little heads, took out half a piece of bread, and handed it to them to satisfy their hunger. She was so busy that she couldn't even take care of eating, so she still asked Yinpo for a big cake, and she didn't eat the remaining half.
"My name is brother."
"My name is my brother."
The two of them divided half of the flatbread very evenly and devoured it.
I can't imagine that they don't even have names, but there are many people in the Tianxing Gate who don't have names, like Zi Youlan, who has the "purple" of Zigongtang as her surname.
"Brother and brother are seniority titles, not names. My sister will give you a name. ”
Xiang Yue thought about it for a while, and then she said: "My sister has been staring at the moon since she was born, so the master named my sister Xiang Yue." You will be surnamed Xiang with your sister, your brother will be called Xiang Ming in the future, and your younger brother will be called Xiang Liang in the future, Xiao Ming and Xiao Liang, okay? ”
However, she immediately lost her face, remembering that she wrote essays when she was a child in her previous life, and often named the characters in the essays Xiaoming Xiaoliang, is it too inappropriate for herself.
Wronged, she didn't have that idea.
"Okay, we have a name." After all, they are still young, and a name makes the two children jump with joy.
"I finally found it."
Suddenly, a figure flashed out of the night and leaped directly towards the moon.
"There are bad guys, protect my sister!"
Xiang Ming was in front of Xiang Yue as he had protected Xiang Liang before, but he was too thin to block much. Xiang Liang also regarded Xiang Yue as his own sister, and when he heard his brother's cry, he hurried to block it.
"It's my sister's friend, it's fine."
Xiang Yue recognized it as Wu Chong when she heard the voice of the visitor, patted Xiang Ming and Xiang Liang on the shoulder, and let them stand next to them with confidence.
"You're just doing things here?"
Wu Chong landed in front of Xiang Yue, his footsteps did not stop, and he forced her to the door frame of the store, and he couldn't move anymore, so he stopped, and said with emotion, "You make it easy for me to find." ”
"Awesome, you've found it."
On that day, Li Laosi and others in Taohuazhai started with the Kuocang faction, and Xiang Yue took advantage of everyone's lack of attention and took the opportunity to slip away, but he was followed, who told his attention to stay on her. However, Xiang Yue made a sound to lead him elsewhere, and went back to the past, and in the end, there was a scene of practicing with Yuan Lingshou.
"I've taught you all the secret words, when will you fulfill your promise."
Wu Chong gradually approached Xiang Yue, the high bridge of his nose was almost attached to her face, his handsome face was still a proud look, with his appearance, identity and status, I believe that he is the object of any woman's affection, the little woman in front of him is just a person who works in a small shop, there is no reason not to be moved.
But he was already moved, Xiang Yue was facing the stove all day today, his cheeks were red and fluttering by the heat, and he was infinitely beautiful, he only felt as if a fire was burning on his body, and he couldn't help but want to kiss it.
"Shameless!"
With an angry scolding, Jia Chunhu didn't know when he would appear behind him.
