Mother Lu glanced at Liu Qingchun, and said to Rong Yunhe a little unhappily: "You said to go to the town, why did it take so long?" ”

Rong Yunhe knew that Mother Lu was worried about her, so she stuck out her tongue and said perfunctorily: "I will come back early in the future." Then he quickly slipped into the room.

After changing his clothes under Yun Xing's service, Rong Yunhe came out and walked around the courtyard, and finally chose the corner of the courtyard outside, inserted the wisteria branches in the soil, and poured some space water. She vaguely remembered that wisteria flowers could be cut into life, and now that there is space water, there shouldn't be much of a problem, right?

Although a trip up the mountain is a great harvest for Rong Yunhe's heart, the flowers of the flower viewing party are not found. Rong Yunhe thought about it and decided to go to the town the next day to inquire. Shiyao Town is not far from Pingzhou City, and everyone in the town should have heard of such a major event every year. It stands to reason that people with brains will not fail to seize this business opportunity. In the city or even in the town, there should be a lively flower market.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The next day, Luzhu arrived in Qingxi Town, went around the fence to the main gate, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Dongzi holding a broom in his hand, and he didn't sweep the floor, but was looking at the ground in a daze with a sad face.

Lu Zhu stepped forward and stretched out his hand to shake it in front of his eyes, and asked, "Brother Zhang, what's wrong?" ”

"Ah, Miss Green Bamboo, are you here?" Dongzi seemed to see a savior, his eyes lit up, and his eyebrows and eyes were stretched.

"What's wrong? Did the old man scold you? ”

Dongzi hurriedly shook his head: "No." The old man knew that I would not serve anyone, but he did not embarrass me. He only asked me to do some rough work for him. I don't have to do the rest, he does it himself. ”

"And what's wrong with you?"

Dongzi lowered his head: "The old man doesn't like the dishes I make." Didn't eat much last night. Early this morning, I went to the tavern again. ”

"Going to the tavern again?" Green Bamboo's voice rose up.

Old Man Lin walked out of the courtyard. looked at Luzhu with a smile: "The girl is here?" ”

"You're going to the tavern again?" Midoritake turned around and stared at him and asked.

Old Man Lin touched his head a little embarrassed, and said, "I went, but I only ordered two meals, and it didn't cost much." Really, it didn't cost much. After speaking, he seemed to feel that he was too cowardly to say this, and he couldn't help but straighten his chest. I cleared my throat and looked like it wasn't a big deal.

Seeing that Old Man Lin was teasing her, he inadvertently revealed a kind of majesty that is customary to superiors. Luzhu was stunned for a moment, and then withdrew his gaze.

This old man, at first glance, is a person in a high position, except for her grandfather in her previous life. None of them are the same. Even if he's down now. It's not something that a little girl like her, who doesn't even have a free body, can pity. Thinking of this, she suddenly felt bored, turned around without saying a word, and slowly walked out the door.

"Hey, girl, where are you going? You promised to cook for the old man yesterday, why did you turn around and leave? The old man saw that it was not good, and hurried forward. grabbed Green Bamboo's arm.

Lu Zhu pulled out his arm from his hand and said lightly: "My craftsmanship is not as good as Brother Zhang's." Where can you get into the food? You'd better go down to the restaurant. As he spoke, he went out without looking back.

"Hey, girl, don't be angry! Am I not ready to listen to you? I'll never go down to the restaurant again, so I'll listen to you. You can do whatever you say, okay? "Where is the old man willing to let her go? Chased out the door and stopped in front of her, pleading.

Every time her grandfather was caught drinking and was discovered, she coaxed her with this pitiful expression. Lu Zhu lowered his eyes, held back the tears that were about to overflow, and said softly: "Your money, you can spend as much as you like, you can spend as much as you like, there is no need to care about what I think of a little girl in the countryside." ”

"If you leave me alone, I'll have to ask for food in two days." The old man tugged at her sleeve, "Although my old man is confused, I also know that you are really good for me, girl." Good girl, don't be angry. From now on, I'll do what I say and won't go to the restaurant. Do you think it's okay? ”

Luzhu raised his eyes and looked at the old man who had gray hair but still had a stiff back, and sighed in his heart.

With his power, even if his men didn't come looking for him, he wouldn't starve, would he? What was the need to whisper to her like this? He may really just because he knows that he is genuinely good to him.

People in high positions can easily get anything; Only sincerely, but it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood. Thinking of this, Lu Zhu secretly sighed, his heart softened, and he caught the steps he handed over, and said, "That's good, you can remember your words." ”

"Remember, remember." The old man saw that Lu Zhu's attitude was relaxed, and his face became happy, "Let's go, hurry up and cook for me." I'm hungry. ”

Seeing that the old man persuaded Luzhu to come back, Dongzi was also very happy. He led Luzhu to the kitchen and said, "According to the girl's instructions, I spent twenty yuan to buy these dishes." The old man didn't eat at home in the morning, so he didn't do it. ”

There is a large piece of pork, two eggplants, and two cabbages on the green bamboo desk; The green onions, ginger and garlic are also complete.

glanced at the old man who came in with him, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's good." "The little people live a life, and it is enough for one person to eat such dishes. Besides, although she boasted about Haikou in front of the old man, she just liked cooking in her previous life. The dishes are all home-cooked, which is better than the average person. But when it comes to comparing with professional chefs, there is basically no comparison.

Since she didn't have the ability to satisfy the old man's fussy mouth, she didn't want to put so much effort into it. Do whatever you want. He really didn't want to eat it, and she didn't have to run out to see him in the future.

Thinking like this, she rolled up her sleeves, cleaned her hands, picked up the slice of pork and looked at it. This is a piece of ribs, weighing one and a half pounds, although it is also fat and thin, and it is not evenly distributed.

Let's make a stewed lion's head. Green Bamboo made a decision in his heart.

Wash the meat at the moment, and neatly put the skin off with your hands and feet, and remove the tendons from the meat. The meat is then cut into slices, which are shredded and finally cut into cubes the size of pomegranate seeds. Mix together the fat and lean meats that have been cut separately. While stirring, add the seasoning made with corn starch, cooking wine, and green onion and ginger juice until it thickens and sticky, then knead the meatballs the size of a fist with your hands.

After doing this, spread the skin of the meat on the bottom of the casserole, spread some cabbage, and put the meatballs on top. Bring boiling water to a boil, slowly pour it into the pot from the edge of the pot, cover and simmer. After a cup of tea. A smell came out of the pot and gradually overflowed the kitchen.

"Well, it smells so good." The old man shrugged his nose and complimented. Looking at the green bamboo who is serious about doing things. The eyes became more and more gentle.

Finish doing these. The green bamboo did not rest. Washing rice for cooking, he fried a meaty eggplant with specially set aside meat, made a green vegetable soup, and said to the old man: "The lion's head must be stewed for an hour." If you're going to be hungry, you can eat these two dishes first, and then eat that dish. ”

After speaking, he explained to Dongzi, who had been watching her cook on the sidelines: "After an hour, skim off some of the oil on the soup, and then pick out the meat skin and green vegetables and throw them away." Then turn the heat to high and add the cabbage that I had chopped. When the dish is seven or eight ripe, it can be cooked. ”

"Yes." Dongzi responded, and asked Luzhu excitedly, "We usually make this dish during the New Year's holidays." It's just that everyone can't do it well, either it's too hard and too tight or too firewood, and the taste is very bad.

"But the cook in the restaurant on the east end of the street did a good job, I went to eat with my cousin once, the crab is fresh and tender, refreshing and soft, not greasy at all. But that's the craft that people rely on to eat, and we're embarrassed to ask. Today I see you cooking this dish, which is very different from our approach. Maybe it's as delicious as Chef Wang's. ”

Lu Zhu listened and said with a smile: "I guess you must have chopped this meat with a knife to make it hard and tight." In fact, the essence of this dish is four words - finely cut and coarse, the meat should be finely chopped, preferably diced pomegranate, and then slightly chopped, resulting in a distance of 'wanting to be indistinguishable, wanting to be incompatible', so as to achieve the tender and soft taste of the meat. ”

Dongzi suddenly realized: "I see. I said, if we add water chestnuts and lotus roots, they can't achieve that effect. It turned out that the method of cutting the meat was wrong. ”

The old man's eyes lit up when he heard this, he took chopsticks and tasted the meaty eggplant made of green bamboo, nodded, and said, "The girl's skills are good." Then he looked at Luzhu and asked, "You taught the method that other chefs used to make a living, so you are not afraid that he will come to you for trouble?" ”

Lu Zhu was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "I don't work as a cook in a restaurant in this town, I just tell Brother Zhang about my cooking experience in private, and I haven't broken the rules, what kind of trouble is he looking for me?" ”

The old man stroked his beard, nodded, and said, "But if you sell this recipe to other restaurants, won't you be able to make some money?" ”

The old man who spends money like water knows the way to make money?

Lu Zhu glanced at him in surprise and said, "If I have no food and clothing and need money urgently, I will naturally do this." But I'm neither hungry nor cold now, and Brother Zhang is not an outsider, so naturally I can't hide my secrets.

"Besides, I have always believed that man, as the primate of all things, has been given by God a tongue to taste all kinds of flavors, and to digest the hot and cold intestines of meat and vegetables, which is fortunate compared to those animals who drink blood and only know how to eat food, or can only eat grass and meat.

"It's time to share food with your peers with a grateful heart. By exchanging cooking skills with each other and improving their skills together, we may be able to create more delicacies, so that everyone can enjoy more delicious food under limited conditions, so as to live up to God's favor for people. ”

Looking at the old man's shining eyes and Dongzi's adoring eyes, Lu Zhu felt that his face was a little red.

Ahem...... Well, she admits that she just thinks she's a low-level amateur chef who doesn't know much of a secret, so she doesn't think about selling it as a treasure. If she knew that this was a secret ingredient that could be sold for money, she would never just say it casually. In front of her, who has not solved the problem of food and clothing, and does not even have personal freedom, these high-sounding truths are ridiculous to say.

However, what she said just now did come from her heart.

That's what people in the future did. There are countless recipes on the Internet, which is proof that people share food. She was also saddened by the fact that the ancients hid secret recipes, which eventually led to the loss of countless good skills. So if she has the opportunity, she will definitely do her best for what she just said, so that the ancient people can eat more and better food.

If you are good, you will help the world, and if you are poor, you will be good alone. She didn't think the two contradicted each other.

"I can't imagine that my old man will be able to hear such words in his lifetime." The old man, who was in a high position and had been well-dressed all his life, was obviously deeply moved by her words.

He stroked his beard, his face full of emotion, "I can't imagine that such words came from the mouth of a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, which makes me feel embarrassed, how can I be embarrassed by my feelings, how can I ......be embarrassed by my feelings."

Sighing at this, he suddenly turned grim, and said solemnly: "Luzhu, kneel down." ”

"Huh?" Luzhu was stunned, I don't know which one he was singing. What she said just now didn't seem to have violated the imperial power, right?

"Old Man Lin, don't be angry. If the green bamboo girl says something wrong, you can teach her a lesson. There's no need for her to kneel, right? Dongzi hurriedly persuaded.

He can see the old and the young getting along. In his opinion, although Mr. Lin is rich, he can't even talk about an employer in front of Luzhu. The reason why Luzhu cares about him and helps him is completely for his pitiful sake. He had no reason or right to behave like this little girl.

"Do you want to worship me as a teacher? If you want to pray, get down on your knees while I haven't changed my mind yet. The old man ignored Dongzi, looking at the green bamboo with a solemn face but kind eyes.

"Apprentice? Do you mean......" Luzhu reacted, couldn't help but be full of joy, and didn't ask questions, knelt straight on the ground, kowtowed to the old man three times, and changed his name to "Master." ”

"Hahaha...... the old man stepped forward and helped up the green bamboo, "Good boy, get up." Seeing Luzhu stand up, he suddenly blinked narrowly, "You kowtowed without asking anything, aren't you afraid to worship a master who taught you to make toilets?" ”

“…… Make a toilet? cough cough ......" Lu Zhu choked on saliva, looking at his old urchin master's face full of helplessness, "Master, making a toilet is also a craft, okay?" "I wanted to scare her with this, but there was no door.

"Isn't it? Mr. Lin, do you really want to teach the green bamboo girl to make a toilet? Dongzi was shocked.

"Of course not." The old man coughed twice, and said solemnly, "Luzhu, you listen well, what you just entered is the first faction in the world for teachers." (To be continued.) )
