Chapter 579: Calling for Rice (10)

The butler walked and slowly opened the half-open door. The door was opened, and it was full of people, no less than ten.

In the kitchen, the shopkeeper and his family, as well as the workers, were eating. Na Fei Teng was boiling hot porridge, facing the cauldron, stirring the rice spoon in his hand.

They were eating, some were drinking. The mood is happy and boring. The door was opened, and where the maid who was cooking was sitting, facing the door, she saw a man with a knife, and there was some blood on both hands, and there was blood on the knife, and her eyes widened when she saw it.

The others felt the door open, paused, and looked at the door.

"Butler." Qian Xi said with five hands holding a rice bowl.

"So it's all in this house?" The butler looked at the people in the room one by one, then at the dining table, at the food at the dining table.

"You've all eaten?" Seeing that the shopkeeper's family was eating, and his own workers were also eating, he asked his workers.

"Will the butler come in and have a bite to eat?" Qian Xiwu chewed on the food in his mouth.

They were all eating, and the housekeeper looked at his hands and wanted to eat, but because his hands were dirty, his thoughts broke a lot. He said, "Why don't you tell me when you eat?" He looked at Qian Xiwu and how they were extraordinary.

Qian Xi chewed the food and ate it fragrantly, and he said, "Butler, you threw away the knife, come in and wash your hands, and eat him twice." There is also wine, and I drink him two sips if I like to drink. ”

This shopkeeper sees the housekeeper and does not squeak.

They are all eating, but they are not eating. He wanted to take a step forward and said, "And what about the horse's meat?" ”

"Horse meat?" Qian Xiwu thought for a while, and he said, "It's okay, butler, you take a rice bowl and put the food in it, and go to the carriage." Selling horse meat while eating. ”

"Then I'll wash my hands, put my food in it, and go to the carriage to eat?" The housekeeper was also hungry when he saw the food.

"Okay, if you want to drink, pour another glass of wine." Qian Xi pulled the dishes and picked up the wine glass: "Butler, look." After speaking, Qian Xiwu took a sip of wine.

When they were all hungry after eating, the housekeeper came into the house and went to see, "Where is there a basin, I will wash my hands." The butler saw the basin, and he walked towards it.

The steward went to the basin, and wondered who had washed the leftovers, but there was a basin on the ground, and the water in the basin was black and buried. This comparison, the housekeeper knows who washed the two basins. It was the woman and the shopkeeper who washed it, because they didn't work on the site. The burial must have been washed by the family and the workers. He deliberately glanced at the hands of the people in the room. The hands of the shopkeeper were clean, but the hands of his workers were dirty, and they were washed with ashes.

In this way, it was determined that his workers did not wash their hands. The dirty water must have been washed by the two of them.

Although the clean water basin is clean, it is compared to the buried water basin. It had been washed, and the butler put his knife on the ground, took up the basin, and before it reached the door, he threw the water towards the door.

The steward came back and put the basin up, and went to get the water and scoop it up. When the shopkeeper saw that the housekeeper's hands were dirty, he said, "Go and help the housekeeper scoop water." ”

The cook answered, and immediately got up to scoop water for the butler.

The shopkeeper asked for help scooping water, but the housekeeper stopped and did not scoop again.

The maid scooped two ladles of water from the water tank for the butler and stood aside.

The butler came to the basin of water, picked up the knife and threw it into the basin of clean water, and there was soap on the stool beside him, and the butler put his hand into the basin and wet his hands, and went to get the soap to rub it, and rubbed his hands with soap. And he took out the knife and put soap on it.

Put the soap back, and the housekeeper rubbed his hand with the knife, and the oil on the knife made the soap suck. After rubbing the knife hand, the housekeeper put the knife hand into the water and washed the knife and washed his hands.

After washing the knife and hands, the housekeeper wiped the knife on his clothes, and wiped his hands on his clothes.

The butler held a knife and asked, "Where are the dishes and chopsticks?" ”

The maid who cooked brought the basin where the butler washed his hands. She brought the basin to the outside and poured it into the brick ditch outside. When the maid returned, she poured out the dirty water from the ground.

After the two basins of water were emptied, the maid scooped some new water into the pot of the butler's knife washer, and then went back to sit down and eat.

The housekeeper asked where there were bowls and chopsticks, and Qian Xiwu and they all looked at the bowls and chopsticks. When the housekeeper saw this, he went over, went over to get a bowl, and went over to find chopsticks. The bowl taken by the housekeeper is a large bowl, and the food is packed together. He saw Fei Teng boiling porridge and asked, "You boiled this porridge for yourself?" ”

"My mouth is broken and I can't chew it." Fei Teng stirred the porridge in the pot, and the aroma of rice porridge had been boiled out.

The butler saw that he did not speak again, and went to the table to serve the food. The housekeeper filled the meal with rice, carrots and peppers, dried tofu peppers, cold vegetables, and peanuts.

He took the knife, put it at the bottom of the bowl, and said, "I won't drink the wine, I'll have to sell horse meat outside." ”

After speaking, the housekeeper walked out with a knife and chopsticks in his hand, and after walking a few steps, he stopped, and said in his heart: "Have a glass of wine, have you anything to drink?" ”

After thinking about it, the housekeeper put the knives, bowls and chopsticks on the table, and looked at the wine glasses on the table, all of which were used. He looked around and saw a cabinet of shelves, and when he got to the cabinet of shelves, he looked for a wine glass.

The butler brought the wine glass to the table and poured himself wine, which was fragrant and wanted to drink when he smelled it.

"Eat and drink here, and I'll go to the side of the road." The butler held a wine glass and a knife in one hand, and a bowl and chopsticks in the other. When he had finished speaking, he went out of the kitchen and went to the carriage.

The housekeeper went, and in the kitchen, as before, the shopkeeper's family sat at the table to eat, and Qian Xiwu and they ate standing upright, drinking, and often bent down to pick up vegetables. Fei Teng was boiling porridge in front of the stove, and it was almost ready.

In this kitchen, some people like it and some people are bored, although everyone is in the same room, but the mood for eating is different.

The housekeeper held a knife and a cup in one hand and a bowl and chopsticks in the other, and came to the side of the roadside car. He went to put away the knives, cups, dishes and chopsticks, found a wooden plank, and put it on the base of the wall. He brought his knives, cups, bowls, and chopsticks, and sat on them, diagonally facing the horse's meat cart.

The knife and cup were put aside by the housekeeper, who held the bowl in his left hand and chopsticks in his right hand, and began to eat. After eating, the rice is fragrant; Ate the dish, the dish is fragrant. The housekeeper chewed the food and praised: "This meal is very fragrant?" ”

The carriage was loaded with horse meat, and there were two villagers in front of the carriage watching the sale of meat. The butler asked, "Do you want to buy horse meat?" ”

The two villagers, an old man and a middle-aged man. The old man asked, "I heard that your horse meat is two copper plates and a catty, no matter what it is?" ”

"There are two copper plates and a catty, from the horse's head to the horse's tail, and then to the horse's feet, from the inside to the outside, all of them are two copper plates and a catty." The butler chewed the food in his mouth, and pointed to the horse meat on the cart with chopsticks in his hand.

"Then the horse's lungs are also two copper plates and a pound?" The old man asked.

"Two copper plates for a catty, meat, bones, organs, and intestines are all two copper plates for a catty." The butler looked at the old man and the meat in the carriage, and looked at the middle-aged man.

"Weigh me." The old man wants to buy horse lungs.

"One or two?" The housekeeper asked.

"One." This horse lung is quite big, and the old man is worried that he won't be able to eat it.

"How do you eat that thing about horse lungs?" The middle-aged man next to the old man asked.

"Eat it and dip it in garlic sauce." The old man replied.

"One." The housekeeper put the dishes and chopsticks down, picked up the knife to the front of the car, and used the knife to move the horse's lungs, which were two large pieces and not connected. Looking at the two clean hands, the housekeeper was helpless, and took the horse's lungs to the old man.
