Chapter 85: Ingenuity Sea Gang Leader
After the first snowfall, there were two days of cold wind, and the weather gradually improved.
Su Haoyi was invited to Haifu for the fireside banquet, and she prepared gifts for Haiqingqiu's family of three, because there were a lot of things, so she didn't walk, but took the carriage of the Chu Waist Pavilion.
When he arrived at the gate of Haifu, Su got out of the car with good intentions, turned around and explained to the coachman: "Uncle Ma, you can go back." I'll just walk back and don't have to come and pick me up. ”
The coachman then drove the car back.
Su Haoyi entered the Haifu and found that there was no one, only a few servants walking around the courtyard, and one of them introduced Su Haoyi to the second gate.
Zhang hugged the child and greeted him, and Su Haoyi hurriedly rushed forward to greet him.
In fact, Su Haoyi didn't lie, Zhang's was born petite and simple, so no matter how you look at it, he is much younger than people of the same age.
Su Haoyi didn't see Hai Qingqiu, and couldn't help but ask Zhang: "Is the eldest brother busy today?" Away from home? ”
"Inside," Zhang replied with a smile, "don't stand here, go into the house and talk." ”
Zhang's eyes smiled crookedly, like a pair of crescent moons, and said to Su kindly: "I haven't seen you for a few months, you seem to have grown taller again." ”
"Mrs. Sister-in-law thinks I'm getting taller, but I think you're getting smaller. I don't know how you usually take care of it? I also asked for a recipe, and it will be useful in a few years. Su said kindly.
Remember in a second https://
Zhang couldn't laugh when he heard this, and said, "You got up early to eat candied fruit, right?" It's so sweet, it's just a death sentence. ”
There are already two people in this room, and they are two big men, one is Hai Qingqiu, and the other is Tong Sanye.
Hai Qingqiu was rolling dough with an apron, and Tong Sanye was sitting on a low stool making dumplings.
Zhang turned around and smiled: "Don't be surprised, it's a family banquet today, so I didn't invite outsiders." ”
Su Haoyi followed Zhang inside, still a little puzzled in his heart. Even if you enter the second gate, there are many fewer servants in this mansion than in the past, let alone guests. It stands to reason that many guests and friends are invited to the fireside banquet, but today's Haifu is too deserted.
What's even more strange is that the Zhang family did not lead her to the main room, but bypassed the main room and went to the courtyard at the back, where there were three very small rooms.
Although Su Haoyi was puzzled, he couldn't ask directly, and when he entered the door, he couldn't help but be startled.
Therefore, after listening to Tong Sanye's words, he hurriedly said: "This is more grand than anything else, what delicacies and delicacies can't be purchased in my eldest brother's house?" This is something that doesn't treat me as an outsider. I was so flattered that I was a little ashamed. ”
Hai Qingqiu said with a smile: "You are a smart person, needless to say, it's not me who boasts, Tong Sanye and noodles I make the filling, few people can eat these dumplings." ”
"I said how can I move my index finger vigorously these days, it turns out that Koufu is waiting for me here! It's just that I can't believe that you two can make dumplings. ”
Tong Sanye got up and said: "The helper and his wife are afraid that Master Su will be restrained, so they only called the old man to accompany him, and the meals prepared are all home-cooked meals, but I am afraid that it will slow down a little." ”
How can Su Haoyi not understand at this time?
Tong Sanye didn't know, but Hai Qingqiu and his wife knew that they were daughters. I've always been a man to the outside, so it's not good to enter the house. But Hai Qingqiu and his wife have always wanted to find an opportunity to treat themselves like family.
Su Haoyi was very curious in his heart, and quietly asked Zhang: "When did the eldest brother learn to cook?" ”
Zhang swallowed the melon seeds and said calmly: "He has been known since he was a child, and I grew up eating the food he cooked." ”
Hai Qingqiu is more than ten years older than Zhang, and Zhang's father is his benefactor, so after Zhang became an orphan, Hai Qingqiu has been taking care of her. When Zhang was seventeen years old, he took her as his wife.
Several people laughed, Su was about to wash her hands to help, Zhang pulled her sleeve and said, "You can't intervene, let's go over there and sit and talk." ”
Saying that, Su Haoyi was pulled aside, and the two of them drank tea and ate melon seeds.
Su Haoyi took Jiaguan from Zhang's arms, the child is now almost eight months old, chubby and white and tender, with a milky taste. is not afraid of life at all, and when he saw Su Kind, he reached out and grabbed her hair, babbling and not knowing what to say.
Then he asked Zhang: "Sister-in-law, do you know how to cook?" ”
Zhang was not embarrassed at all, and generously admitted: "I won't, and besides, he won't allow me to do it." Then he smiled and whispered, "I won't tell you, he washed all my clothes with such a big body." ”
Su Haoyi listened to it, and the melon seeds in his hand were not fragrant.
Although Su Haoyi was surprised, seeing that Hai Qingqiu rolled the dough so skillfully, he knew that it could not be practiced overnight.
Zhang said: "Actually, my master is skillful, not only cooking deliciously, but also making a lot of gadgets!" Look at these toys of Jiaguan, they are all made by him. ”
Su Hao said that the rattles, carriages and horses and other toys on the table were exquisite, and his jaw dropped in shock.
Su Haoyi heard this and hurriedly stood up and went over to help serve the plates, while the Zhang family called the maid and asked her to take the little young master away first.
Su Haoyi brought the plate to the table, and there were already four side dishes on the table, as well as a big bowl of pure vegetable soup.
Hot dumplings lie on the plate like little fat pigs.
Hai Qingqiu is so good to his wife that he is too enviable.
As the head of a gang, not only does he not have three wives and four concubines, but he also does it so personally in trivial matters of life, and it is false for any woman to say that she is not envious.
At this time, Hai Qingqiu beckoned: "It's about to eat, come and sit!" ”
Su looked at the four side dishes, which were melon seeds and cucumber strips, sauce tofu, sour cowpeas, and drunken pickled melon.
tasted the sour cowpeas closest to her first, and praised them sincerely: "Big brother's craftsmanship is really amazing!" ”
Hai Qingqiu said with a reserved face: "Actually, two more days will be better, it's still a little bit more meaningful." ”
Hai Qingqiu said: "Eat it while it's hot, it's not good if it's cold." ”
Everyone sat around the table, and Zhang smiled and introduced to Su Haoyi: "You can taste these small dishes, they are all made by the master himself." ”
Hai Qingqiu sat there and didn't speak, but the look on his face was both forbearant and expectant.
"Master Su likes this thing?" Tong Sanye said with a smile: "It's really not easy to get it in other places, but our boat gang is doing water business, and there is no place where you can't get it on the north-south waterway, so this thing is not rare for us." ”
But what pleases her the most is the bowl of pure vegetable soup on the table.
"It's the first time I've eaten Ulva soup in winter," Su Haoyi didn't hide his surprise and curiosity at all: "It's too rare." ”
Su Haoyi tasted three other side dishes, and the taste was also very delicious.
"If you like it, just ask someone to send you some every once in a while," Hai Qingqiu said: "I called the fourth child over a few days ago and said a few words to him, he won't bother you again in the future." ”
Su Haoyi hurriedly thanked her, she was still a little strange why the fourth master didn't entangle herself anymore, it seemed that Haiqing knew about it, warned him, and saved herself a lot of trouble.
