Chapter 654: Hong Yan Teaser
Zeng Youqu smashed all the wild bird eggs that Zeng Gao took out last night in an iron box, mixed evenly with chopsticks, and then washed and chopped mountain mushroom seeds, put them in and stirred together, when the oil pot smoked, then poured the egg liquid into it, rolled it with a spatula, and immediately a wild bird egg cake was made. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
There were still some leftovers from last night's barbecue, Zeng Youqu cut them into thin slices, and cut the steamed buns he brought into slices, fried them in an oil pan, and fried them until golden brown.
Fried steamed bread slices, grilled meat slices, and then rolled with wild bird egg cakes, and you're done.
I really didn't see it, Zeng Youqu is also a good cook, don't look at the few things in front of you, it's very simple, but the taste is really good.
"The mountains are not as good as at home, so I have to take local materials, it's a bit simple, Boss Wang don't dislike it, first eat a few bites to fill the belly, and then go home, and then make a good table." Zeng Youqu got it done and gave Boss Wang a copy first.
He was already hungry with his chest on his back, and when he saw such a fragrant delicacy at this time, how could he bear it, and while gobbling it up, he raised his thumbs up towards Zeng Youqu.
"Brother Zeng, don't call me Boss Wang, look at me younger than you, you just call me Brother Wang, it's so kind. Just your casual food, it's better than breakfast in a big restaurant in town, it's delicious, delicious, and delicious. ”
Can it be delicious, the mountain mushrooms are all Zeng Youqu, just picked next to the tent, the wild bird eggs were also picked last night, and the eggs used to stir the eggs are the clear and sweet mountain springs.
The barbecue meat sandwiched in it also tastes great, and the grilled steamed buns are logically said to be unpalatable overnight, who knows that with such a frying, there is a kind of crunchy texture.
Zeng Youqu listened to him praise non-stop, but he didn't say anything, just smiled.
As a soldier, how to find food for themselves in the wilderness and how to survive is the most basic, but the food methods they know are relatively simple and direct, unlike Zeng Anxin's artistic food work.
In Zeng Youqu's view, instead of making food into a variety of fancy dishes, it is better to be so direct and primitive, with more beauty of the food itself, and without destroying nutrition.
Boss Wang ate with a round belly, and then remembered that there was one person missing, and when he looked up, he happened to see Zeng Tall, carrying two big buckets on his back, pulling the rope, and retreating from the cliff with difficulty.
At the other end of the rope was an iron clawed fence, which was hooked in the crack of the stone, and occasionally the wind blew and swayed, and a small stone fell, and he was terrified to see it.
I also sighed secretly in my heart, I don't blame the Zeng family for asking for a high price, this water is really not easy to come by, and I really pinned my head to the waistband of my trousers.
"Quick, you two go up and help." Boss Wang hurriedly instructed his two guys, they were already stunned, and then they reacted, and ran over one after another, one by one, supporting Zeng Gaoda, and helping to take down the bucket and put it on the ground.
At this mention, I was startled, I looked at it from a distance just now, and I felt that it was nothing, but now I know that a bucket of water is really not light, at least a hundred catties smaller, aren't these two buckets two hundred catties?
No wonder Zeng Gao's face was as red as a boiled shrimp shell, and his clothes were even soaked with sweat, and Boss Wang also saw that Zeng Gao's palms were all bloodstained by the rope.
Zeng Gaoda ate something casually, and found that Boss Wang was circling around the two buckets, and he also pretended not to see it, so that he could take a look.
Boss Wang found that these two barrels were very cleverly designed, and there were lids on them, and they were very tightly sealed, which means that even if they missed for a while, they didn't catch them, and they rolled to the ground, and the water would not flow out.
He wanted to lift one to try the weight, but he was stunned to find that he couldn't lift it, and then he puffed up a sigh and mentioned it again, so he couldn't help but ask with a slight surprise: "Didn't the little girl say that there can only be a certain number every night?" I see how these two buckets can get at least 200 catties of water. ”
Zeng Gaoda smiled slightly: "These two buckets of water probably add up, maybe only eighty catties, as for the rest is the weight of the bucket, because this bucket, the inner and outer layers are wood, and the middle is iron, so it is heavy, but because of this, it can play a good role in sealing and protection." This cliff is too high, I'm afraid that if I can't catch it, the bucket will fall, so I can protect the water, right? ”
"I see, it seems that this water is really hard to come by." Boss Wang nodded and didn't say anything more, because he thought that since the water was so rare and the water quality was good, it meant that he was going to bleed heavily.
I don't know that little girl like a ghost and elf, this time he will offer a lot of money, anyway, he has his own psychological limit, if it's too ruthless, it's a big deal.
When going down the mountain, Boss Wang's two buddies still wanted to help, but they couldn't even walk steadily with the bucket on their backs, and finally they went down the mountain with a tall back.
Zhaocai smelled the smell of Zeng Gaoda's body, so he shouted towards the courtyard, and Anxin immediately ran out to greet them with a smile.
Anyway, I had already eaten wild egg cakes in the morning, and now Boss Wang is like an arrow, and he wants to go back quickly, and spread the news that he got super good spring water, which will definitely attract a large number of tea customers.
"Anxin girl, hurry up and weigh it, let's weigh the water, weigh the tea, and pay for the things." I didn't go back that night, and I don't know the people in the teahouse, so why are I worried. ”
"Okay." Since he is refreshing, there is naturally no reason to procrastinate.
first took out the Xiaoxing stamp, weighed three taels of tea leaves and wrapped them, and sent an iron bucket for him to load, and then asked people to carry water over and weigh it, and the result was about eighty catties.
The price given by Boss Wang is eight taels of silver for one pound of the best mountain spring, and eighty catties is six hundred and forty taels. Thinking with peace of mind, on the surface, it seems that this water is very difficult, but in fact, it is very easy, and it is not bad to earn four hundred taels.
However, she still made a sad appearance, and showed her tall and worn hand to Boss Wang, and exaggerated the road, and asked Boss Wang if he had experienced it himself.
Boss Wang thought about the hospitality of the Zeng family last night, and he would have to do business for a long time in the future, so he nodded and raised the price to ten taels of silver a catty, but he hoped that Zeng Gaoda could provide water delivery services.
"Boss Wang is a cheerful person, then we don't procrastinate, for long-term business considerations, we will be friendly and cooperative in the future, although the price is a little lower, but we also agreed. Sending water to the door, it may be unlikely, but I can give you another big discount, this superb mountain spring, only sold to you, if others come again, we will not sell it for a hundred taels and a catty! ”
Boss Wang was originally also a businessman's head, thinking that the price had risen, and it was good to take advantage of the interest and recover the interest, and he heard that he couldn't send water, and he felt a little uncomfortable, but when he heard that he only sold his family, he immediately told which one was more cost-effective, and immediately smiled.
This top-notch tea is gone, and it will be next year, which is equivalent to an exclusive buyout, plus the buyout of this superb mountain spring, haha, it seems that they are a tea house and dominate Taoyuan County.
"Okay, good, Miss Zeng is really a cheerful person. Then Wang took his leave. These silver tickets, Miss Zeng, please take them! Boss Wang took out the silver of tea and spring water from his arms.
The tea leaves are 1,500 taels, the spring water is 800 taels, a total of 2,300 taels, 23 silver tickets, a large stack.
When Boss Wang walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and said: "Anxin girl, this tea is really good, but it doesn't have a name, why don't you give it a nice name, so that it will be loud in the future, and this spring water, why don't you also give it a name?" ”
That's a great idea!
Anxin asked his family for advice, and asked Boss Wang, and finally named the spring water as the peach source fairyland, and the tea as Qingyu fairy tea.
Anxin sent Boss Wang away with a smile, and then handed the silver ticket to his mother to collect.
Li Lamei, who had just come down the mountain, asked curiously: "Peace of mind, why don't you send it to others, if it is sent to the door, it will be convenient for people, maybe there will be any good things in the future, and I will think about you." ”
"I didn't agree to deliver to the door, there is a reason, Uncle Yu's local restaurant has only opened, and it is not famous, it is completely dependent on the person who comes to pick up the goods, so there is business to do, if we deliver to the door, then her restaurant will not be closed? Second, this water is expensive, if something happens during transportation, we have to be responsible, it is equivalent to an extra layer of risk, it is better to let them transport it themselves, no matter what happens, it has nothing to do with us, and we don't have to worry about it. An An put his hands behind his back, shaking his head like an old pedant, but his eyebrows and eyes were very clever and eccentric.
"Anxin, you are so smart, how can you think of this, if only I were half as smart as you."
An An smiled and pretended to be old and said: "That's because my father is smart and my mother is smart, so I'm smart." Ha ha! ”
Li Lamei also laughed, didn't say more, and hurriedly carried the basket in to find Aijun to weigh the weight of the mountain goods, she still had to go home and cook dinner for her grandmother.
Sometimes I really envy and feel at ease, my parents are there, and I have two brothers to protect and love, where is like her, I can only rely on my grandmother for my life.
Anxin stood at the door, looking towards the entrance of the village, wondering if Grandma and Aunt He could get things done today.
Mrs. Zhang and He came back when it was almost dark, and the Zeng family had not eaten and were waiting for the two of them.
Mrs. Zhang first took a sip of water, rested for a while, and took a breath, and then talked about today's situation in detail, which was really thrilling.
But in the end, it was done, but He was too soft-hearted, but he was defrauded of five taels of silver by the old woman.
That old thing is too powerful, if it weren't for Mrs. Zhang, who saw that things were not good and quickly stopped her, I'm afraid He would have to tell the truth.
"Sister Di, didn't you come with you?"
He Shi's eyes were red: "That old thing, she is not allowed to come over until she finishes all the work in the field at home." I always have a bad premonition, I really don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing to let Lai Di come to work, you said that if it's that old thing, so he relies on the Zeng family, and runs to eat and drink every day, but how is it good? ”
An Xin immediately hooked his lips and showed a sneer: "I'm afraid that she won't come, if she dares to come, I will definitely give her a meal to eat, so that the next time she sees me, it will be like seeing a ghost." ”
The matter was finally done, and a stone fell in everyone's hearts, so they ate together with Gao Aijunxing.
Who was only halfway through the meal, and saw Zhang suddenly holding his stomach and moaning.
"Mother, what's wrong, what's wrong, second brother, second brother, come on, my mother's stomach hurts, are you going to give birth?" Anxin stared at Zhang nervously, looking at her somewhat pale face.
Zhang held her daughter's little hand, smiled comfortingly, and wanted to say something, but a new wave of labor pains came, and she only moaned, where did she have time to say anything.
Zeng Aijun hurriedly ran over from the back of the house, first checked Zhang's pulse, and then checked the situation, and said: "The amniotic fluid is broken, but the palace mouth is not big enough, I'm afraid there will be a while, first help my mother to the room, and rest assured that you can boil water." ”
The whole family immediately mobilized, and the He family also helped, and the sound of Zhang's exclamation of pain was heard from time to time in the house.
Zeng Youqu walked around the house with a serious face, every time he heard an exclamation, his face darkened, and his fists clenched tightly, before he wanted to go in to have a look, but was stopped by Mrs. Zhang, saying that the delivery room is not suitable for men to enter, and it is not clean.
"Ah......" There was another miserable cry, Zeng Aijun was already busy sweating profusely, and He Shi brought out basins of blood from it from time to time.
Anxin is still a girl, and Mrs. Zhang naturally won't let her in, but she is really worried, silently praying to God, don't let her mother suffer too much, and pray that the little brother must come safely and smoothly.
After another scream came, Zeng Youqu rushed in regardless of Mrs. Zhang's obstruction, stared at Zhang's eyes seriously, held her hand tightly, and called her name softly: "Cui Niang, I'm here, I'll be fine soon." ”
Zeng Youqu saw Zhang's gritting his teeth in pain, for fear that she would bite her tongue, and she actually stretched out her hand without changing her face.
Zhang only knew that there was a heart-rending pain in his lower body at the moment, where could he manage a lot, he bit when he caught it, and after a while, Zeng Youqu's palm was dripping with blood.
But his face did not change at all, and he still comforted Zhang with a very gentle voice: "Cui Niang, it's okay, it'll be okay soon, I'm here, I will always be with you." ”
Zeng Youqu thought of his previous life, when Zhang gave birth to three children, he was on a mission outside, and he had never been guarded by his side, since he could do it all over again, he must make up for such regrets.
Mrs. Zhang came in and saw her son-in-law's hand, the flesh and blood bitten by her daughter were blurred, and she was really a little surprised.
At the same time, I am also happy for my daughter, and finally come to the end of the hardships and get through.
Zhang's body, although it was very bitter and malnourished in the early stage, but since Zeng Anxin came with Xiantao Space, he has been conditioned in many ways and has long since improved.
And Zhang himself also pays attention to exercise and nutrient absorption, so he lives quickly, and before he arrives two hours, he hears a loud cry.
Zeng Aijun hugged the big fat boy and grinned, this is the little brother who was delivered by him?
Zeng Youqu also saw it, and smiled, his eyes flashing with love.
This kid weighs nine pounds, it seems that the absorption is really good, and it is not like the newly born at all, the skin is white and tender, very tight, the little hands and feet are chubby, the hair has grown a shallow layer of scalp, and it is also black stubble, unlike other children, wrinkled and red like a little old man.
Mrs. Zhang happily took it, wrapped the small bag and quilt, and was amazed while looking at it, saying that she was so old, and the first time she saw a newborn baby, her skin and hair were better than those that others had raised for months.
Zhang tried to raise his head, his eyes were full of joy, Zeng Aijun hurriedly said: "Grandma, my mother hasn't seen my little brother yet." ”
"Yes, yes, yes, look at my love for the army, hey, little baby, come and see your mother, you have to thank your mother, she worked hard to conceive you to term, and it hurt for a long time before she had you."
I don't know if it's a coincidence or if this child really understood Mrs. Zhang's words, when Zhang stretched out his hands and carefully hugged her into his arms, the little bun actually grinned.
That smile, soft and warm, instantly warmed Zeng Youqu's strong heart into a puddle of spring water, he felt that he couldn't say anything, only grinned.
Zhang kissed the baby's face, but the circles under his eyes involuntarily turned red, Zeng Youqu and his wife had a heart-to-heart, knowing what she was thinking, so he used his rough big hand to shake the nervous hand, and said softly: "We will teach this child well in the future and train him to become a talent, which can be regarded as worthy of this family." ”
Zhang nodded slightly choked, but his hand held the baby tighter.
Zeng Aijun only thought that the old lady loved the army too much, and she was middle-aged and had a child, so her eyes were red, where would she guess the thoughts of the husband and wife.
Zhang's childbirth, the whole family is happy, Zeng Youqu has already loved the army and can't find the north and south, fortunately, Mrs. Zhang is an old man who has been through things for a long time, and quickly turned the three brothers of the Zeng family to turn around, first of all, of course, the blood tonic food that has been stewed long ago is brought over for Zhang to eat.
The little thing, already with its mouth open, arched in Zhang's arms, probably hungry.
Zhang glanced at his youngest son, his heart became more and more gentle, took the chicken soup in Mrs. Zhang's hand, solved it in three or two bites, and ate some others.
Only if she eats more, the baby will have abundant milk to eat.
Zeng Anxin took advantage of his grandmother's inattention and added a lot of fairy pond water to those chicken soups, which not only enriched the mother's milk, so that the little brother could eat the best quality breast milk, and his body would be great in the future, and it would also be of great help to the improvement of the mother's postpartum physical weakness.
Zeng Gaoda went to report the good news to the village chief, Zeng Aijun was busy listing how to make confinement for his mother next, how to eat during confinement, how to take care of the baby, etc., and he would teach Mrs. Zhang and He when he turned around.
Zeng Anxin is going to prepare for the good news tomorrow.
He saw that the Zhang family gave birth to another son, he was really envious, and then thought about himself, why couldn't he conceive a son?
But after thinking about it again, not everyone's son is as promising as the Zeng family, besides, the daughter is also very good, such as peace of mind, and then Xiaoli of his own family.
Later, Yu Dayong comforted her again, although she had a little regret in her heart, she quickly put it aside and got busy for the Zhang family.
The small clothes, small shoes, diapers and so on that have been made a long time ago will come in handy now.
He gave birth to three daughters, and naturally she was very familiar with these, as long as the child hummed and moved, she could almost immediately judge whether the child was hungry and thirsty, or urinated, and used the fastest and most comfortable means to immediately change the child.
Zeng Anxin glanced at it, his eyes widened, and he secretly thought to himself: "Aunt He's hand is amazing, if this is placed in modern times, it will definitely be a sought-after golden housekeeping." ”
Although Mrs. Zhang is also very skilled, she is old, and she is a little tired after being busy in the middle of the night, so He took the initiative to take care of things and let her rest.
Zeng Youqu was also discussing with Yu Dayong what to do about washing three wines.
Zeng Gaoda finished informing the village chief, he had already driven the ox cart and went to Zhangjiazhai, and early tomorrow morning, Father Zhang and Uncle Anxin's large group of people would be able to rush over.
Anxin couldn't sleep happily, she was standing outside the courtyard looking at the bright moon in the sky, thinking that Wang Zhuoyun seemed to have not been here for a long time, she counted her fingers, in fact, it was only ten days, but because she used to see her every day, she didn't see her for a few days now, so she felt that time had passed for a long time.
He was in such a hurry last time, and he said it in such a hurry, that he didn't know what the situation was now.
Thinking of Wang Zhuoyun, I thought of Wang Rujia and my eldest brother with peace of mind, and couldn't help but sigh softly, Sister Rujia is the future princess, and she is destined to be not on the same path as her eldest brother, and it seems that she has no fate.
The eldest brother is really unlucky, the love in his previous life was not smooth, he has crossed, and the emotional road is still not smooth, God, do you have long eyes at the bottom?
Thinking of the eldest brother, she naturally also thought of the second brother, the Shangguan Chaodi, who was originally very sticky to the second brother, suddenly disappeared, and she was a little worried.
A few days ago, he secretly spied Shangguan Haoran in his words, and found that there was nothing wrong with him, maybe Shangguan Chaodi had really given up.
It's okay, she and her second brother are not people of the same world, and when they think about Shangguan Chaodi, they were originally attracted by magic, but they were just girlish feelings.
And what about yourself? She smiled bitterly, and felt that she was only ten years old, thinking about what to do, such a thing, it was not too late to think about it when she turned eighteen years old.
I don't know if the heart is connected, she only thought of Wang Zhuoyun when she was free, but suddenly saw a black shadow appear in front of her, almost startled her, but then this black shadow half-knelt in front of her, "I've seen Miss Zeng." ”
Uh, this voice, this dark shadow looks, she knows.
The person who carried her directly to Mr. You's courtyard at the beginning was, of course, the person Wang Zhuoyun left to contact.
"Get up, why are you here?" Because she didn't know what the other party's name was, she just ignored it.
