CHAPTER XXVIII

Gu Juan liked to study recipes the most in his last life, but at that time, no matter how delicious Gu Juan cooked, he only ate it alone. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

First cut the chicken into pieces, then cut some ginger chili, pour some vegetable oil into the pot first, then put a little jaggery, wait until the sugar is fried to make the sugar color, then put the chicken in, stir-fry a few times, then pour in white water, put in ginger slices, chili peppers and salt.

Gu Juan thought about it and put in the mushrooms that Ah He picked on the mountain a few days ago.

For a while, the small stove room was filled with the aroma of chicken.

The eldest aunt, who was setting up the vegetable garden outside, came over and said, "Ah Juan, what are you doing here?

"This is my new idea, a new way to make chicken, I want you to try it, it's not good yet, I have to stew it for a while. ”

When Boss Gu and his party returned, it was already sunset.

At this time, the chicken was already stewed with a strong fragrance, and it happened that Gu Zhi also returned from a lecture, and when he smelled such a smell, he hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, what did you do, so fragrant?"

"Uncle is back, come and try the dishes made by Ahe, they are delicious, I have never eaten such a tender stewed chicken. ”

Gu Zhi hurriedly sat down and looked at the table, only to see a half-sized casserole in the middle, which was filled with bright yellow and tender chicken, and it looked very good with green and red peppers and mushrooms.

Gu Zhi took a chopstick chicken and put it in his mouth, and immediately felt the smooth and tender aroma of the chicken, the delicate taste of the chicken and the salty and slightly spicy soup were really delicious.

"It's really delicious, as the so-called food is not boring, what Confucius said is very true. ”

After saying this, Gu Zhi couldn't help but take another quick bite of chicken.

"Since Daddy thinks it's delicious, what do you think about selling this?"

Gu Zhi, who was eating, suddenly put down his chopsticks and said, "If you have the capital, it's not impossible, it's just that doing business is not child's play, let's take a look." ”

Based on Gu Juan's understanding of Gu Zhi, there is absolutely no meaning to say this.

"I don't need much capital, so I find an uncle carpenter at the entrance of the village to make a pair of tables and chairs, and it doesn't cost three taels of silver to buy some ingredients. ”

Gu Zhichang sighed, and he said, "Ah Xuan knows how much this dock worker earns a day?"

"How much?"

"At most, fifty wen, the cost of Ah Juan's chicken pot is at least thirty wen, will there be that dock worker who can't think of it to eat this?"

Gu Juan was silent, she was just on a whim, but she didn't think that the Ming Dynasty and later generations were essentially two completely different countries. Ordinary dock workers are paid at most one or two pieces of silver a month. They are all breadwinners, how can they spend such money?

Gu Juan couldn't help but feel a little lost, and Wang, who was eating at this time, put down his chopsticks, looked at Gu Juan and said, "I think Ah Juan's dish is a bit tricky." ”

This Wang is a northerner, and he followed the displaced people to Jiangnan in his early years, but he is not so conservative and calm in his bones.

Gu Juan was suddenly overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Sister-in-law, please speak?"

"This stewed chicken is extremely delicious, even if there is only juice with brown rice, it is also delicious, and I heard Ah Wan say, the method is also very simple, this chicken is expensive, but other things, like taro, eggplant, and even lotus vegetables are not expensive, if it is in the same way, the taste will not be too far behind, the price will naturally come down, and if it is really a deal, it is not necessarily only sold to those poor dock workers, ordinary people's homes, small traders, who doesn't want to taste it?"

As soon as the Wang family finished speaking, Gu Juan couldn't help but secretly say, this Wang family is really a resolute and refreshing woman.

At this time, Gu Juan opened his mouth again: "I'm looking for someone to make some small casseroles, the size of a bowl, only seven or eight pieces of chicken, enough for one to eat, ten cents a piece, most people can still afford to eat." ”

After Gu Juan finished speaking, everyone was silent.

"Your grandfather was in business in his early years, and if he had known about it, he would have been a little gratified. ”

Gu Zhi said this, Gu Juan knew that there was hope, but the most important thing at this time was the issue of capital, Gu Juan next to her was not clear, but her family's money was really a dime.

"What does Daddy mean?"

"Naturally, I don't have an opinion, but the money problem?"

At this time, Wang continued this conversation and said: "If my uncle doesn't have the capital, I borrowed it from my mother's family, and it can be regarded as a partnership with Ah Juan's sister." ”

Gu Juan was overjoyed, and then said with a smile: "Then thank you sister-in-law." ”

After dinner, in Wang's house, Gu Tong looked at Wang with some concern, and said, "Sister Ajuan is just a little lady, so you really feel at ease to put the money into it?"

Wang looked at Gu Tong with some annoyance.

"What do you know? Although Wei Jun is sick at this time, he may not be able to say after he recovers. I heard that Wei Jun's knowledge is better than that of his uncle, and when the time comes, my uncle's family will accept my affection, so I can't lift you up more. ”

"I see, it's all a family, and it doesn't have to be like this. ”

"Besides, I think this business has a spectrum, shouldn't my unsuccessful brother also get married, wouldn't it be better if he could kiss and kiss?"

"Forget it, I always think that my sister Ajuan is going to be the life of the official's wife, don't think about it. ”

At this moment, Gu Juan walked lightly to Gu Lao'er's house with a bowl of chicken, and there was a half-old child squatting outside the door, this little boy raised his head, his eyes were bright, and after he saw Gu Juan, he said, "My sister is the daughter of the second uncle, right?"

Gu Juan was a little strange, so he asked, "How do you know?"

"People say that the best-looking girl in Lanxi Village is your sister, so I can naturally recognize it. ”

Gu Juan smiled, this kid is so smart, born with a tiger's brain, very cute, Gu Juan couldn't help but ask: "Then you must be the smartest child in Lanxi Village, Gu Mingqi, right?"

Gu Mingqi smiled and said, "It's me, what is my sister doing today?"

Gu Zhi once said that Gu Mingqi, the youngest son of Gu Lao's second family, is talented and very likable, and he is really cute when he sees it today.

"I'm here to bring you food. ”

"Then come on in. ”

Gu Mingqi ran to the house in a hurry, Gu Lao'er's family had already finished dinner, a long-faced woman was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and Gu Lao'er was sitting aside, and there was a woman next to him who was about to get up and leave, I saw that this woman was fair-skinned, not like an ordinary peasant woman.

This woman must be Gu Lao'er's eldest daughter, Gu Su, who is lazy by nature and doesn't like to work, although she looks a little good, but because of this problem, she has not yet married at such an age.

Gu Su is already over sixteen years old, which is not small in ancient times.
