Chapter 928: Selling Yourself
At noon, three plates of meat dishes were placed in front of Gu Ye at the same time. Gu Ye tasted some of everything, and felt that it was too ordinary, not to mention comparing with Aunt Yan, even if she pulled a random cook in the kitchen at home, she couldn't compare.
The stew is too oily, and the salt is too much, which covers the original aroma of the meat. The duck is a bit chai and has a strong flavor. Sister-in-law Qi's roast chicken nuggets are better, and they can barely be eaten, but they are still far from her delicious standards!
Gu Ye only ate two bites of each and then stopped his chopsticks. Jin Moran ate deliciously, and didn't forget to complain about her: "I look at you, it's just a habitual problem." It's already good to have such food on the road, and your mouth is so picky, aren't you afraid of fainting on the road with hunger? I tell you, I won't save you then! β
Gu Ye glanced at him: "It's just you who can feed, okay?" Don't worry, if you're hungry and faint, I won't faint. It has been scientifically proven that a woman's ability to carry hunger far exceeds that of a man. β
Jin Moran pursed his lips and continued to pull the rice into his mouth, obviously not believing it. Gu Ye shrugged: Believe it or not!
Took a nap and was fine in the afternoon. Gu Ye pulled Sister-in-law Qi and tossed in the kitchen for a whole afternoon, and finally made a red date glutinous rice cake with a barely palpable taste under the extremely simple ingredients. He also asked Brother Qi to buy two little stupid chickens, stuffed mushrooms, bamboo shoots and other ingredients in his stomach, wrapped them in dried lotus leaves sent by Xiaohu on the opposite side, and wrapped them in mud to make a flower chicken.
Sister-in-law Qi made a flower chicken according to her method, and the couple tasted it and was amazed. After obtaining Gu Ye's consent, they decided to make this called flower chicken the signature dish of the inn. Although their town is small, there are people who come and go from time to time, and they will settle in their inn. The inn also has a three-board service.
Gu Ye instructed them to make red date cakes and called flower chicken, which were very popular with foreign guests. Even people who have extra money in the town will occasionally come to buy some red date cakes for their children as snacks, or buy a flower chicken to go back to entertain guests, which is very face-saving!
Early the next morning, when Gu Ye checked out with Brother Qi, the other party was unwilling to accept it. also said that she is the lifesaver of their children, not to mention that she only stays for one night, even if she stays in their house permanently, it is impossible to charge them for their room.
As for the dishes bought from the Li family of the Han family, he said that it was for guests, so how could he still ask the guests to pay for the meal? Seeing that Gu Ye still had to give money, Brother Qi was about to kneel down for her.
He doesn't have anything good to give his benefactor as a thank you gift, eat a few meals, and stay for one night If he still needs money from his benefactor, is he still human?
Seeing this, Gu Ye no longer insisted, so he put away his purse, waved his hand to Brother Qi's father and son who were sent outside the town, waved towards them in a chic manner, and walked away. Jin Moran, who was carrying a bamboo basket on his back, followed behind with a stinky face.
"What's up? Why do you have a poop-eating expression? Gu Ye grabbed a grass vine from the side of the road and shook it in his hand.
Jin Moran gritted his teeth and said, "Who eats stool?" You...... I don't know how King Ning likes you, it's so rude that you don't look like a woman! β
"Haha, then it goes without saying that King Ning naturally took a fancy to my peerless appearance, was shocked by my beauty, and his heart was pounding, so he chased me for more than two years!" Gu Ye was very shameless.
Jin Mo's mouth was almost behind his ears: "Beautiful? If King Ning is a person who values beauty, he just looks in the mirror every day! What kind of woman do you think can get into his eyes? β
"That's because of my talent. A talented woman like me, who is talented, talented, rich, and knowledgeable, can there be a second one in the world? We call it 'talented women and men', a perfect combination, made in heaven! "Gu Ye's skin is not ordinarily thick.
Jin Moran decided not to continue this topic, otherwise he would have blocked his lungs and exploded. He tossed the bamboo basket on his back and said, "You said you, did you deliberately fix me?" It's too much to get two big mud balls for me to carry, right? Didn't you say that if you live in peace, no one will cheat anyone? β
"I don't know! What mud eggs, that's our noon food. If you dare to throw it, just wait to be hungry, right? Gu Ye looked at him with disdain - he had never seen a flower chicken, he was really lonely.
Jin Moran was so stimulated by her that he wanted to hit someone! What cuisine? Wrapped in mud, can you eat it? Aren't you particular about eating? Blind and exquisite!
The two of them walked forward while bickering, and the speed was not slow. Brother Qi disappeared from sight behind the backs of the two of them, and then carried his son back. As soon as he entered the town, he saw his mother-in-law hurrying towards him.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Brother Qi asked his mother-in-law.
Sister-in-law Qi took a breath and asked, "What about the benefactor?" Let's go? β
"Ahh Let's go? What the hell is going on? Brother Qi asked strangely.
Sister-in-law Qi showed him a silver nugget of five taels in her hand: "When I was tidying up my benefactor's room just now, I found the ...... next to the pillow."
Brother Qi was silent for a long time before he said, "Put it away." When Bin'er grew up, he told him that the silver ingots were left by the kind people who saved his life. The girl...... What a great man! β
It must have been the benefactor who saw that their family was not well-off, felt that he was both a chicken and a duck, and spent a lot of money, and was afraid that he would not accept their money, so he quietly stayed. The little girl is beautiful and kind-hearted, and she will definitely have great blessings in the future!
Gu Ye and the others were lucky enough to hitchhike an ox cart on the road, and they didn't walk on their feet again until they reached the fork in the road to Fuqu Town.
For the rest of the journey, Gu Ye trotted forward all the way, jumping and jumping without any difficulty at all. But Jin Mo was dyed, carrying this big bamboo basket, he had no internal strength, and he relied on his body to have good physical strength, so that he would not get tired and lie down.
However, at lunchtime, Jin Moran finally saw the delicacy of "mud eggs". I picked up some dry wood, lit it on the side of the road, threw the mud eggs into it, and after a while broke the hard shell, and a rich fragrance wafted out.
Peel off the lotus leaf to reveal the tender chicken inside. If you are tired of eating meat, the ingredients in the chicken belly can enrich the taste. It's so delicious! I didn't expect this woman to have this unique skill? Why didn't you see her show her hand two days earlier?
If Gu Ye knew what he was thinking, he would definitely give him a big look: The old lady dares to do it, do you dare to eat it?
In her previous life, her cooking skills could be said to be deadly, and cooking porridge could make people spit it out. In this life, when I was a child, I had the memory of the original owner, and the food I cooked could only be regarded as ingestible, and it was still 108,000 miles away from being delicious.
After Aunt Yan came, she almost didn't do it herself, and only gave guidance in theory. This is called flower chicken, and it is also her dictation, and Sister-in-law Qi adds seasonings according to her own cooking experience. With her aloneβa little salt, how much is this little? The appropriate amount of green onion and ginger, and the appropriate amount is geometry?
It's so hard for her! God was always fair and gave her the gift of medicine, but missed the point of cooking. Alas, she doesn't force it anymore!
The speed of the two was not slow, they should have arrived in Fuqu Town at sunset, but they were full an hour in advance.
Compared with the town in the morning, I don't know how many times bigger, almost equivalent to a small county seat. They walked along the main road where people came and went, looking for a suitable inn to stay.
"Huh? With so many people in front of you, it can't be that someone has an emergency, right? After Gu Ye finished speaking, he drilled into the crowd.
Jin Mo was full of helplessness: Woman, you are now a meat ticket, and you must have the consciousness of a meat ticket. No matter who gets sick along the way, you have to intervene. Did I kidnap you, or did I accompany you to practice medicine?
Gu Ye squeezed over to take a look, and it turned out to be for sale. Buried in his father's place. A lady dressed in silk and satin lifted the chin of the kneeling woman with a fan: "Yo! The little one looks pretty good! It's five taels of silver, come with me? β
The moment the woman raised her head, Gu Ye almost burst out laughing. This woman in ragged clothes, unkempt hair, and grass in her hair, who is not the full moon? Her trick is also good enough, and she betrayed her father to bury her. Aren't you afraid of being bought by others?
"Five taels of silver? Look at this blessed little round face, look at the big eyes that flicker. How can it be worth five taels of silver? This son, you're too picky, aren't you? Five taels of silver to buy a thin coffin is just barely enough, people have to ask someone to help with the burial, and then ask a few monks to recite the mantra of the dead or something, what is five taels of silver enough? Gu Ye pinched Yueyuan's chin and looked at it carefully. That look, that expression, is more like a disciple than the one next to him.
"You! Do you know who Young Master Ben is? Dare to spoil the good deeds of Young Master Ben? The gorgeous clothes stretched out their hands and wanted to pull Gu Ye with a smile. Yueyuan clenched her hands tightly, for fear that she would not hold back and break this kid's neck.
"Who do I care you are? In front of the county lord, you are a dragon, and you have to be coiled for the county lord! "Gu Ye pretended to be the brutal county lord of Anping, and there was no pressure.
"The county lord? How could the county lord appear outside in this poor country? Can you afford the charge of pretending to be the county lord? Hua Fu looked incredulous and said with a sneer.
Gu Ye took out a dragon-shaped jade pendant from his waist and shook it at Huafu: "Did you see it?" The dragon-shaped jade pendant, rewarded by the emperor, can enter and exit the palace freely with it. Still not convinced? Do you want me to take you to the capital for verification? β
A young man next to Huafu Gentleman, who still had good eyesight, quietly grabbed his friend and whispered: "Although the cloak on this girl's body is a little dirty, it seems to be made of Yanmink fur. And as soon as she raised her hand, a little fabric was revealed on the cuffs, as if it was woven from silkworm silk. β
"What? Clothes made of silkworm silk, still worn inside? You read that right? Who has a piece of silk silk woven clothes, and they don't want to cover their heads and faces, for fear that others won't see it? The boy in the costume screamed in disbelief.
His friend whispered, "What are our family members doing?" How could I be wrong? β
This kid's family is an imperial businessman, responsible for the supply of fabrics in the palace, and he still has this knowledge. The prince of Huafu was instigated, but he was not a person who wanted to save face, so he arched his hand and said: "It turns out that it is really His Royal Highness the county lord, in Xia Lu Yulin, he just had eyes and did not know Mount Tai, and he offended the county lord." Prepare a table of water and wine in Fumanlou to make amends to His Royal Highness the county lord! β
