Chapter 163: Approaching (Adding to Yanguo QQ)
But whether you are convinced or not is not based on words.
Zhou Shaojin felt that only by doing better could he fight for himself.
She left Jiashutang as usual, but her heart was as complicated as the sea.
Mrs. Guan stood in front of the window lattice, watching Zhou Shaojin's back slowly disappear behind the flower wall, and then called Mama Wang in, and said in a low voice: "Do you want to let people talk to Aunt Liang to see how the old ancestor in the second room is doing?" ”
Mama Wang was taken aback.
Mrs. Guan told Mama Wang everything Zhou Shaojin told her just now, and finally smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that we are going to stand in line, we can't help but prepare early!" ”
Mama Wang is the old man in the family, and she knows even more about the affairs of the Cheng family than Cheng Wei. After the change of dynasty, the Cheng family lost the aura and convenience of the eunuch's house, and with the reputation of a remnant of the previous dynasty, officials of all sizes dared to come forward to fight the autumn breeze, and life was very difficult, until she followed the old lady Guan to marry and did not ease her breath, if it weren't for the talent and intelligence of the ancestor of the second room, and he was admitted to the Jinshi, the Cheng family would have collapsed long ago. It can be said that the reason why Jiuru Lane is where it is today is all due to Cheng Xu. How Cheng Xu made the Cheng family prosper little by little, they not only saw it in their eyes, but also experienced it themselves. In the hearts of these old people, Cheng Xu is no less than the "King of Zhongxing" of a dynasty, let them challenge the majesty of Cheng Xu...... They don't dare!
So Mama Wang couldn't help but tremble when she heard this: "You, are you sure?" Don't anger the old ancestors...... Although Mrs. Guo is powerful, she is a woman in the end, and her name is not right...... Chi Siye is even more unappointing, those who have any boat ticket numbers are all flowers in the mirror, I'm afraid that a letter from the ancestor can bring down those boat ticket numbers......"
"Then you're as simple as you say!" Mrs. Guan said disapprenously, "Today is different from the past, and the ancestors and colleagues of the same year have passed one after another. The subordinates have their own thoughts, if it weren't for the support of the eldest man of the long house, some people may not sell the face of their ancestors. Otherwise, the old ancestor would not have enveloped the aunt for Ziyi. It's not that I want to follow the long room and fall to the second room to benefit from it...... Do you still remember when Siye Chi was doing the ticket number business and asked us to join us? I didn't close my eyes for three days and three nights. No shares. The family's income is not enough to support Brother He'er and Brother He'er's future studies, and when we buy shares, we are tied to the same boat as Changfang. What scared me even more was that Fourth Master Chi was only sixteen years old back then! If he grows up peacefully, he doesn't know what evil things he will do! Do you know Chi Siye's intention to create the ticket number now? The second room endured not to turn his face with the long room, and if he turned his face, he turned his face. Look at it. The one who jumped out to take the lead must be Wufang! ”
What is lacking in the five rooms is silver.
Silver is the life of wealth.
The second room wants the net worth of the fifth room, and the fifth room can risk his life to fight with the second room.
Mama Wang was silent.
Old Lady Guan whispered: "Now it depends on how the old ancestor's body is......"
Mama Wang understood and nodded "yes". Retreated.

Zhou Shaojin painted a statue of Guanyin at home for a day, and the depression in his heart dissipated little by little. Counting the days, it was also the day when she went to the Hanbi Mountain House to copy the scriptures. She thought that Cheng Chi lived in the Hanbi Mountain House, and considering that the Spring Festival had just passed, she cooked crispy cakes and brought them over to Mrs. Guo and Biyu to taste.
Mrs. Guo couldn't stop nodding and said, "This snack is well done." Then he said, "It looks like five-spice powder in it, but it doesn't look like it." ”
Zhou Shaojin smiled: "I added a little Sichuan pepper." ”
"Oh!" Mrs. Guo tasted it again. "It seems that there is something else." ”
"Your old man is really the emperor's tongue." Zhou Shaojin said with a smile, "I ground the Sichuan pepper into powder, and then fried it with salt, and added the five-spice powder to make a crisp, and the taste of the Sichuan pepper is slightly different from usual." ”
"I'll just say. This shortbread doesn't taste the same as usual. Mrs. Guo smiled with relief. Tell Jasper, "Send a few to Shiro to try too." ”
Zhou Shaojin smiled: "I also made a box for Fourth Uncle Chi." ”
Old Madam Guo couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
Zhou Shaojin smiled: "Since I did it for you." Naturally, Uncle Chi can't be missing. ”
Old Madam Guo smiled and said, "It seems that Shiro still pleases me, it's okay, then I don't care, take these to Mama Lu." The last sentence was to Jasper.
Jasper smiled and said "good".
Zhou Shaojin said goodbye and went to the Buddhist hall.
She hadn't copied scriptures for a few days, and the faint smell of ink made her feel very kind and comfortable.
She took a deep breath and began to grind the ink.
Over there, Cheng Chi received the crispy cakes forwarded by Biyu, looked at them for a long time, gave the box away, handed it to Huaishan, and said, "You are a northerner, you should like to eat this, you can take it back and eat it!" ”
Huaishan took the box.
Cheng Chi continued to talk to him: "...... Since Xiao Zhenhai can find Jinling, others can also find it. It's inconvenient for me to show up in Jinling City, and the Cheng family will call me sick in the future! That would also explain why I didn't go out of business. After two years, I died of illness, and the Cheng family was safe. ”
Huaishan said "um", and saw Ji Ying walk into the yard, and a little girl with a face bowed her head and talked for a long time, the little girl took out a box that was the same as Cheng Chi handed him just now and handed it to Ji Ying, Ji Ying took the box, rewarded the little girl with a few coppers, and happily went back.
"Fourth Master!" He couldn't help but say, "The second miss of the Zhou family seems to have also sent food to Ji Ying." ”
"Oh!" Cheng Chi said lightly, "I probably did a lot, everyone gave some-it's not strange that many people have gifts!" She copied scriptures in the Hanbi Mountain House, and made friends with these servants, which would make it much easier for her to act. ”
Huaishan should be, and went back with the box.
Ji Ying ran to Zhou Shaojin and said with a smile: "Second Miss, the crispy cakes you make are really delicious!" Thank you so much! Still thinking about me. ”
Zhou Shaojin grinned and said, "I have done a lot, and everyone has a share." Uncle Chi also has a share. ”
"Really?" Ji Ying looked very sorry and said, "Your Uncle Chi doesn't like this kind of dry point. ”
Zhou Shaojin was not good, and asked, "Then what does he like?" ”
Ji Ying thought for a long time and said, "I don't know either." But I know he doesn't like sweets, but no, he seems to eat orchid crisp too...... Don't eat things made of glutinous rice. This is definitely not right because he doesn't eat glutinous rice balls and zongzi. He eats pork dumplings...... Heck, he's a weird guy anyway, and I don't know what he likes to eat. Who knows what will suddenly whet his appetite! In the end, she became a little impatient, and said, "Anyway, he is very particular about eating." ”
Is it because she doesn't make it delicious?
Zhou Shaojin thought about it. The second time I made a jade siu mai.
with pork. Glutinous rice, green vegetables and dried shrimp. In order to be beautiful, she also deliberately found a pastel entwined flower.
It is said that Cheng Chi just thought that the plate was not bad after seeing it.
The third time she made unsweet sesame cakes. In order to look good, it was deliberately cut into a triangle, a layer of white corn flour, a layer of black sesame seeds, black and white, which looked very novel.
Cheng Chi rewarded Qingfeng and Lang Yue, and Mama Lu liked it very much. After eating, I asked her for the recipe.
Zhou Shaojin couldn't cry or laugh, was defeated, and decided to make pastries only for those who like to eat.
She not only wrote the recipe for the sesame cake to Mama Lu, but also made Jiangmi osmanthus cake for Mama Lu.
Mama Lu was very happy and gave some to Mrs. Guo.
Mrs. Guo smiled: "This Jiang rice cake is well done. ”
Ate several pieces.
Zhou Shaojin was taken aback.
Jiang rice is easy to accumulate food if you eat too much.
Mama Lu said aggrievedly: "Is the old lady persuaded by us?" ”
Zhou Shaojin said: "If you can't persuade it, you have to persuade it!" Otherwise, what can we do if we eat three long and two short? He said. I thought for a moment. "Then I'll make some turnip cake tomorrow." The same soft and glutinous and easy to eat. But it is made with radish and pork, which is better than Jiangmi cake. ”
Mama Lu nodded again and again.
The next day, Zhou Shaojin made a Rocka cake and sent it over.
Mrs. Guo ate four pieces in a row and put down her chopsticks.
When Zhou Shaojin went to say goodbye to her, she asked, "Are you very good at cooking?" ”
"Not very good." Zhou Shaojin said modestly, "I am very good at cooking what I like, and I basically can't eat what I don't like." Like I don't like to eat mackerel, I won't do it. ”
Mrs. Guo laughed and said, "Then what do you like to eat?" ”
"Squirrel fish! Osmanthus glutinous rice cake, Longjing shrimp, lotus root pork rib soup......" Zhou Shaojin counted with his fingers and said, "Anyway, I like to eat delicious food." ”
Mrs. Guo laughed and rewarded Zhou Shaojin with a set of pastry molds made of nanmu.
There are peaches, chrysanthemums, lotus, auspicious clouds and even five bats holding longevity, there are 21 kinds of flowers, which can not only be used to make snacks, but also can be used to make moon cakes, which is very rare. Ordinary people have such a set of molds, which are usually used to make family heirlooms.
Zhou Shaojin didn't dare to accept it.
Mrs. Guo smiled: "I don't have a daughter, and your cousins don't like to cook." Others are swords and knights, and I am a celebrity chef with a mold, which can be regarded as complementing each other! ”
Zhou Shaojin really liked it, no longer shirked, happily accepted it, and decided to make a few snacks for Mrs. Guo to taste in the future.
It's just that what she didn't expect was that when she returned to Jiashutang with the mold, Mrs. Wu was actually talking to Mrs. Guan.
Zhou Shaojin asked quietly: "Is Mrs. Wu here alone?" ”
See'er nodded and whispered to her: "I cried and cried when I came, but I finally stopped crying just now." Looking like that, it seems that he came to complain to Lao Anren. ”
In her previous life, Mrs. Wu often cried with Mrs. Guan. But since Wu Baozhang won the favor of Grandma Zhi's Zheng family, Mrs. Wu would cry at Grandma Zhida whenever she had anything, and she almost never came to the fourth room.
Zhou Shaojin sneered and went in to greet Mrs. Guan.
Mrs. Wu, whose eyes were still a little swollen, saw her unprecedentedly enthusiastic, and was about to step forward to take her hand with a smile: "Second Miss has come back from the Hanbi Mountain House?" The wind is a bit strong today, is it blowing? But I haven't seen each other for a few months, but the second lady has grown taller, and she is much more beautiful than before......"
