Chapter 59: The Nature of a Foodie
"Thank goodness I finally came out safely!" Cheng Naixuan looked Wang Fulin up and down for a moment, and then asked worriedly, "In addition to Brother Kui, my other cousins, cousins, there are few people who can not be disciplined in front of my father, and there are even people who are too scared to come to the door, Shuangmu, my father didn't ask you about it, right?" ”
"Your dad is so terrible." said this, but Wang Fulin said in his heart that dealing with your father was more tiring than dealing with Ye Xianzun, and then changed the topic and said, "I came today to discuss something with you." ”
"Your business is my business." Cheng Naixuan patted his chest without saying a word, and sent Mo Xiang to guard outside, and dragged Wang Fulin into the study. Seeing that the other party crossed the threshold, his eyes widened in shock, and he said curtly, "You also know my father's temperament, this is arranged by him himself, and I am not allowed to change it even a little." ”
There is no partition in the huge room, the north, east and west walls are bookshelves, the top is densely stacked with books, there is a bamboo couch next to the bookshelf on the east side, there is a large bookcase in the middle, a Huanghuali seat at the back, and the four treasures of the study room are readily available. On the west side is a piano stand, and on one side are several large volume cylinders, which are full of volumes, and I don't know whether it is a celebrity law or a fine painting and calligraphy. As for the rest of the various ornaments, there is no one, looking at a sense of elegance coming to the face, if you don't know, you still think that Cheng Dagongzi is a diligent and hard-working person.
Wang Fulin came to the bookcase in this sea of books, and then found an extremely embarrassing thing, there is only the main seat and no guest seat here! And the next moment, Cheng Naixuan also discovered this embarrassing situation, looked around for a while, his eyes fell on the bamboo couch, and immediately smiled evilly: "Or, move the bamboo couch over, you can make do with it?" ”
"you, stand and talk!" Wang Fulin really didn't know what to say about this bad friend, so he simply took out something from his arms and handed it over, "Look at this thing, do you know it?" ”
What Wang Fulin handed over was a fruit knocked down from a tree on the side of the road on his way back to Songming Mountain. Cheng Naixuan was a little strange, stretched out his hand to take it and looked at it again and again, and then said uncertainly: "Although it seems to have just grown for a long time, and the color is not right, it looks like a small walnut." Where did you come from? ”
"You know?" Wang Fulin didn't expect Cheng Naixuan, who grew up in the city, to know this, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Do you know what this thing is for?" ”
"Oil! I have a steward in charge of an oil mill, who is in charge of oil extraction. What tea seeds, brassica seeds, soybeans, sesame seeds...... There are many more that can be squeezed for oil. Last time, he didn't know where to hit and heard that this thing can be squeezed after being peeled, and it grows in the mountains without money, so he hired someone to knock it down and picked up a few carts, but he was dumbfounded after getting it back. So in a fit of rage, he threw all these cars away. Why are you asking this, are you planning to open an oil mill? Don't do it before it's too late, it won't kill you. ”
The Cheng family really has a lot of industries!
Wang Fulin sighed in his heart, but said with a smile: "It's really not easy to extract oil from this thing, but it's good to be a snack." ”
When Cheng Naixuan heard this, he almost didn't pop out his eyes. Didn't you hear that Wang Fulin is delicious? In an instant, he thought of Jinbao, and immediately said with a smile: "It's not easy for you to eat, I'll go back and ask Moxiang to ask the oil mill." ”
"Last year's was stale food, where can I eat it, but this year's food will have to wait until around the white dew to harvest. At that point, ask your housekeeper to collect a few carts for me. Seeing Cheng Naixuan glaring at himself incredulously, obviously meaning that you can eat so much alone, he said with a smile, "How many people eat melon seeds now, how many people will eat this little walnut in the future." You don't care, it's just a feast. ”
Cheng Naixuan smacked his lips in disbelief, and finally reluctantly agreed. But what he didn't expect was that in an instant, Wang Fulin walked to the bookcase again, picked up a piece of ink with half an inkstone on it, and then spread out a piece of paper, dipped the pen in ink to write and draw, and after a while, several strange things appeared on the paper.
"What is this?"
"It's all food. It should have been shipped from Nanyang, you can help me find out the news, even if it is only seeds. ”
Wang Fulin knew that these things should be transported from the Americas to Nanyang, and then transferred from Nanyang, but he didn't plan to explain too much to Cheng Naixuan. He pointed to the thing above and said the same, "This, it may be called chili pepper or pepper, it is red and green, and the entrance is spicy, which is a bit similar to turmeric of Sichuan pepper." This one is long, one grain yellow at the top, probably called corn, or some other name, and it is good to eat roasted and boiled. This big red is a bit like a fruit, probably called a persimmon? Maybe it's the name, anyway, it's such a big one, bright red and bright red, the scrambled eggs are the most wonderful, and they taste good when eaten raw......"
Cheng Naixuan listened to Wang Fulin talking about the same kind of food as if he was a treasure, there were seven or eight kinds of food, and he finally determined that he had ignored one of Wang Fulin's attributes in the past.
This guy is a foodie!
In the Majia Inn, Qiu Feng sat alone by the well in the yard to wash clothes, although the well water was cold, and he was sitting under the shade of the tree, but now the weather was very hot, he raised his hand from time to time to wipe his sweat, and gradually stopped his hand and started to be stunned.
At this time, Wang Fulin visited Cheng Gongzi in the Cheng family's mansion, Jinbao studied at Master Li in the county magistrate's house, and he was the only one left to stay here. He was sent over by Master Cheng, it has been almost a month, Wang Fulin is really good to him, the books around him are read with him, even the pen, ink, paper and inkstone are allowed to be used, usually at most a lesson and warning, never beat and scolded him. Reasoning, he sold a death deed to others as a slave, and he should be content with such a life.
But there is a comparison of Jinbao, he doesn't know why, he just can't be reconciled! Moreover, Jinbao is only eight years old, and he is expected to shine in the next few years, but he is already eleven years old! Is it just like this, a few years older, you can marry a village woman casually, and then be a cow and a horse for the rest of your life?
Thinking of his old father who took twelve taels of silver after selling him, Qiu Feng only felt that his eyes were sour, and he unconsciously shed tears. He was afraid of being seen, so he raised his hand and was about to wipe it, when he suddenly heard a voice outside: "Qiu Feng, your family has sent you something!" ”
Qiu Feng was stunned for a moment. Since he was sold, although he was in the city of She, in order to avoid a headache, he has not returned home once. As for his relatives at home, he didn't think he would bother the god to find him. However, the impossible happened! He subconsciously dropped the clothes in his hand, scrubbed his hands in the water casually, and didn't bother to dry them when they were wet, so he hurriedly took steps and ran out.
However, when he followed the messenger to a small door of the inn, he found a man in his early thirties, with a beard on his lips and a few moles on his face.
"Your dad asked me to bring you something." The visitor smiled and handed over a baggage.
Qiu Feng saw that the guy had left, so he hurriedly wiped his clothes with his hand and reached out to take the burden. The heavy weight of the hand made him quite puzzled, and after thinking about it, he simply untied it in front of the visitor, but saw that it was a set of clothes, shoes and socks, all the materials were the best, and the stitches were fine. Shocked, he stared at these things for a long time, then raised his head and said, "My mother can't make such clothes, and she can't afford to use such materials." Who are you? ”
