When the door closed at night, Jiuniang glanced at Meng Youcai and frowned: "Tired, right?" You go and rest first, and I'll do the rest. ”

Meng Youcai rubbed his eyes and asked, "But you still have to sort out the account books and count the money?" Second sister, I'll come, you've been busy for a day, although my reading is not very good, but this account can still be calculated. ”

"It's okay, you work the first day, it's natural to be tired, have a good rest today, and be more energetic tomorrow." Jiuniang insisted.

Gu Huacheng glanced at the two of them and spoke: "Meng Youcai, you go and rest, let's just come here." ”

Meng Youcai nodded at this time, yawned and went to sleep.

Gu Huacheng walked to Jiu Niang's side, patted Jiu Niang's back, and asked, "What's wrong?" Such a dignified look? ”

"It's nothing, it's just a little unexpected." Jiuniang lowered her head, pulled the corners of her mouth slightly, and called out to the ginger girl who was holding the basin, "Senior sister." ”

"Huh?" Jiang Nu looked over with a yawn, put the basin at the door of the house, and asked Jiu Niang, "Senior sister, what's wrong?" ”

"Tomorrow, you won't come to the counter to help." Jiu Niang smiled and stepped forward to help Jiang Nu straighten her collar.

Jiang Nu nodded very happily, picked up the basin and left, walked a few steps but stopped, and glanced at Jiu Niang: "Senior sister, so tired, can Meng Youcai be busy alone tomorrow?" ”

"You don't have to worry about it, you don't have to deliver any more wine tomorrow, and you won't be as busy as you are today. You have a good rest, and if you are really too busy, you are watching to see if you want to help. Jiu Niang smiled.

Jiang Nu nodded, and finally left happily.

Gu Huacheng glanced at Jiu Niang, a little curious: "Jiu Niang, come and tell me what you think?" ”

Jiu Niang glanced at Gu Huacheng, turned around and went behind the counter, took out the account book, and began to look at it carefully.

Gu Huacheng was bored standing by himself. couldn't help but go over, and snatched the account book from Jiu Niang's hand: "You look very busy talking to you, I said my Jiu Niang, you are not the proprietress of our wine, why did you start to have the style of the proprietress of the boss?" ”

Jiuniang couldn't help but blushed and spit out: "Why do you have so many things?" ”

Turning around, Jiu Niang began to turn out all the money in the drawer again, and glared at Gu Huacheng: "Can't you look at the accounts?" ”

"Well, it's okay, the woman and the husband are fine." Gu Huacheng nodded and looked at Jiu Niang's red-headed cheeks. I feel very happy. Looking down at the account book carefully, he went to count the remaining wine, and after a while, Gu Huacheng couldn't help but let out a puzzled "huh".

Jiuniang frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"We actually sold two hundred and seventy-three jars of wine today?" Gu Huacheng sighed in disbelief, and hurriedly counted it again.

Jiu Niang had almost ordered the silver money at this time, and pulled Gu Huacheng, who was about to count it for the third time: "Master, don't count, that's right." ”

Indeed, two hundred and seventy-three jars of wine were sold. But out of the two hundred and seventy-three altars, one hundred and three were given away. But such a number is enough for Gu Huacheng to be surprised.

When business is at its best, it's just a hundred and ten jars a day. And was it like this? Even if each of them comes out to work, they are still busy and their feet do not touch the ground, and what has to be said is that Meng Youcai is eloquent.

Among those who are coming today. Most of them are people who Jiu Niang said yesterday that they can come to get wine for free today. But if it weren't for Meng Youcai saying that they would all buy some more, what they said today, they wouldn't have sold so much.

Jiu Niang sighed. glanced at Gu Huacheng: "What should I do, I just think that Meng Youcai is so talented in doing business now, and I don't dare to scold him anymore." ”

"It's as if you scolded him in the past, but when Jiu Niang said it, did you notice what Meng Youcai did today?" Gu Huacheng smiled shallowly.

Jiuniang thought for a while, and shook her head a little dejectedly, "I'm too busy looking for wine for them over there, where can I have time to care about what Meng Youcai is doing." However, I was worried that Meng Youcai would be a little deducted when he received cash, but now, I think of him badly. ”

Gu Huacheng nodded, saw Jiu Niang raise her hand and rubbed her eyes, and said with a smile: "Go to sleep." ”

Jiu Niang glanced at Gu Huacheng and nodded with a smile.

The next day it was another sunny day, and when I got up and opened the door, I could already see the smoke rising from the stove in the courtyard.

Jiuniang smiled, went to the stove room to get hot water, and planned to make tea for everyone, who knew that when she entered the stove room, she found that the person standing next to the stove was actually Meng Youcai.

Stunned, Jiu Niang smiled: "Why did you get up so early?" ”

"Second sister, are you up?" Meng Youcai turned around and grinned at Jiu Niang, "I can't sleep and get up, second sister, can you taste the porridge I cooked, can you still eat it?" ”

Meng Youcai said as he scooped a bowl of porridge from the pot on the side and handed it to Jiu Niang, Jiu Niang looked down to see that the white porridge in her hand was still steaming, but this porridge was not boiled out of rice. You can still vaguely see a few shredded meats, and there are some green vegetable leaves with the appearance of japonica rice.

Jiuniang couldn't help but glance at Meng Youcai: "The meat you went to buy?" ”

Meng Youcai lowered his head embarrassedly and pointed to the big urn used to store grain on the side: "I saw that there was one in it, so I took it out and used it......"

Jiuniang was stunned for a moment before smiling: "The meat in there is salty." As he spoke, he stirred the porridge in the bowl with a spoon and took a sip, but exclaimed, "It tastes good, do you often cook at home?" ”

"No, I didn't." Meng Youcai was a little embarrassed, "My sister cooks at home, and after the eldest sister gets married, my mother does it, and my father does it occasionally." My mother never let me interfere. ”

Jiuniang nodded, this is indeed Cao's style.

got up and glanced at the pot, Jiu Niang couldn't help but be curious: "What are you doing with the lid of the pot over there?" ”

Meng Youcai stood in front of the pot like a baby, and waved his hand at Jiu Niang: "Second sister, go wash your face, wait for you to wash your face and then shout everyone up, I can do it if I think about it, won't the second sister know what it is by then?" ”

Jiu Niang spread her hands, picked up the kettle from the hearth, poured some hot water and turned around and went out.

After waiting for everyone to wait in the dining room, Meng Youcai came over slowly, and the first thing that came up was the shredded porridge with vegetables and meat that Jiuniang had already tasted, and then the one that came up was still covered with a lid.

Jiuniang frowned, looking at Meng Youcai with some doubts: "What are you doing here?" ”

"Wine-brewed balls." Meng Youcai said after putting it down.

Jiu Niang twitched the corner of her mouth: "Are you so mysterious about a wine-brewed ball?" ”

However, when Meng Youcai lifted the lid of the wine-stuffed balls, Jiuniang realized that Meng Youcai had his reasons for doing this.

The balls that were supposed to be smooth and round, I don't know if Meng Youcai opened them too much, or if they were stirred too hard, but now they have become paste and spread out in the basin. But if you say that there is still something worthy of praise, it is probably that Meng Youcai added some green silk and red rose-like things to it, which looks very good.

Meng Youcai scratched his head embarrassedly: "Second sister, Mr. Gu, Brother Fusang, Sister Jiang, don't look at me all the time, but eat." ”

"You did both, huh?" Fuso asked in some surprise.

Meng Youcai nodded.

"Why is there such a big gap!" Jiang Nu finished drinking the porridge in the bowl, and she couldn't understand it.

One tastes good, and the other looks bad.

Meng Youcai scratched his head: "Haven't you tasted this wine-brewed balls yet?" Although it doesn't look good, it doesn't necessarily taste bad. ”

Jiuniang smiled, glanced at Jiang Nu, and took the lead in scooping a bowl of wine-stuffed balls.

Flavor......

It's really not hard to eat.

Meng Youcai, who has never cooked before, can make such a taste, which cannot but be said to be amazing. It's just that after the surprise, Jiu Niang felt a kind of shock. An inexplicable kind of shock.

Frowning, Jiu Niang quickly lowered her head and finished eating, and left the dining room under the pretext that something was wrong.

Gu Huacheng looked at Jiu Niang, frowned slightly, turned his head, looked at a few people who were looking at each other, and said, "Why don't you eat quickly, you all look at Jiu Niang, you know that you are in a hurry to open the door so early, you are still eating here slowly, don't you feel ashamed?" ”

Jiang Nu and Meng Youcai listened, and immediately lowered their heads to eat well, only Fusang frowned and looked at Jiu Niang's back for a while before sighing and continuing to eat.

After the meal, Meng Youcai hurriedly cleaned up the table and hurriedly ran to the counter.

Jiu Niang had already cleaned up the counter, and when she saw Meng Youcai coming, she smiled: "You are so good to guard, I'm leaving." ”

"Where is the second sister going?" Meng Youcai was a little puzzled.

Jiuniang stopped, glanced back at Meng Youcai, and said with a smile: "This is your job alone, we came to help you yesterday, but we just looked at the fact that there are so many people, thinking about it today, how can it not be like yesterday, you have to live well." ”

Meng Youcai opened his mouth, and then nodded: "Oh, I see." ”

Jiu Niang smiled and turned to leave.

Gu Huacheng watched Jiu Niang come out, beckoned to Jiu Niang, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Not really." Jiuniang lowered her head and sighed slightly, "Master, I feel a little unhappy, I want to talk to Hu Die." ”

Gu Huacheng frowned: "Is there anything you can't say to me?" ”

"It's not anymore, it's just ...... Master, you didn't know what Meng Youcai's temper was, and I didn't know how the Cao family raised children, and I have an indescribable feeling about Meng Youcai's performance today, or the performance of the past few days. But Hu Die ...... Hu Die knows something there, I want to talk to her......"

Gu Huacheng interrupted Jiu Niang's words: "Anyway, let's stay in the wine fragrance today." ”

"Huh?" Jiuniang was puzzled, and some didn't understand why Gu Huacheng suddenly said this. (To be continued......)
