Chapter 283: The matchmaker comes to the door
"Eh, it's time to go!"
Several families happily sat down and happily ate a meal, until the unitary time, after everyone was full of wine and food, they got up to send Qin Sanlang to them.
"Take these things and distribute them to the brothers in the division and the yamen, don't be troublesome, you are new to the city, you have to deal with the relationship, so as not to be dissatisfied with you in the hearts of others." The third grandmother chattered and asked Qin Sanlang to put four sacks full of bean dregs on horseback.
After he finished putting it away, he brought two more bags and put them on the horse that Qin Erlang was riding: "It is filled with seasoning spices, all of them are two by two, you take one bag, Wu Boy takes one bag, and when the time comes, give everyone a bag, and give a few more packs to the head of the small flag and general banner, but people are in charge of you, and you can't give as much as the little soldiers, that's not a gift, it's burying others." ”
Qin Erlang frowned, and he really wanted to throw away the two bags of seasoning spices.
Qin Sanlang came over and helped the third grandmother put the two bags of seasoning spices on the horse's back, and said with a smile: "Third grandmother, don't worry, we will give these things to our comrades." ”
After speaking, he turned over and got on the horse, stretched out his hand again, pulled Luo Wu onto the horse with his arm strength, and said to several families: "Let's go, come back next time." ”
He also explained: "If that Sun Lichang comes to find fault again, don't hide it, go to the military office and the county government to find us, and we will come back to help." ”
"Eh, we know, don't worry." The third grandfather waved his hand and urged him: "Let's go quickly, it's not too early." ”
Qin Sanlang looked at Gu Jinli, and after seeing that she nodded very seriously and nodded again, he laughed, clamped the horse's belly, flicked the horse's whip, rode a fast horse, and ran out of the end of the village.
Qin Erlang followed, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared.
After Qin Sanlang and the others left, Gu Jinli began to teach the Chu family, the Yan family, and the Chen family to fry spices, while thinking about what fresh food to cook for Gu Daya's family?
After thinking about it for three days, I finally came up with two things to eat that Da Chu didn't have, so I called Gu Daya's family that night and told them: "There are two good appetizers, called lo-mei and roast duck." ”
"What is lo-mei? What kind of dish is roast duck? Like grilled fish, do you put the duck on the iron plate and grill it? When Gu Daya was in Li's house, she worked as a cook and could cook a lot of dishes, but she had never heard of lo-mei and roast duck: "The duck smells fishy, and the meat is relatively firewood, which is not delicious, and everyone dislikes it." ”
Gu Jinli said: "Auntie, rest assured, the roast duck is not only fragrant, but the meat is also tender and juicy, which is better than chicken." ”
Nowadays, ducks are cheap, a three-pound duck costs 45 yuan, but a three-pound live chicken costs 100 yuan, and if it lays eggs, it costs at least 150 yuan, which is very expensive.
Qi Kangle's eyes lit up when he heard this: "If it can be made better than chicken, then this business can be done, and ducks are much cheaper than chickens." ”
Then he asked, "What is lo-mei?" ”
Gu Jinli said: "It is a kind of appetizer, first use seasoning spices to boil a pot of braised soup, and then put the meat in it to cook, and after cooking, soak it for an hour to eat." You can also make vegetarian marinade, put tofu, bean skin, and lotus root into the boiled brine, and after they absorb the taste of the brine, it becomes vegetarian marinade, which is very delicious. Not only is it an excellent appetizer, but it also goes well with rice and steamed buns. ”
Qi Panzi said: "It's okay to say that the vegetarian marinade is not easy to sell, but the meat marinade is not easy to sell, and there are few rich households in the town, and not every family is willing to eat meat every day." ”
Qi Panzi has been a merchant and knows the conditions of the people in Dachu Town, don't look at the people who live in the town, but many families only buy meat once every few days.
Gu Daya glared at Qi Panzi: "Before it opened, you said frustrating words." ”
This is what Xiaoyu worked hard to come up with, and he doesn't boast about it, but he still says this kind of thing.
Besides, it would be nice for Xiao Yu to teach them these two fresh foods, and he still said such unpleasant things.
Gu Daya is now very protective of her eldest brother's family, even if Qi Panzi is unintentional, she can't listen to Qi Panzi say such things.
When Qi Panzi heard this, he hurriedly said, "Listen to you." ”
Gu Jinli looked funny: "Uncle, don't worry, although we are opening a shop in the town, we can sell this kind of thing to other towns or restaurants in the county, and we can't just sell it to people in Qingfu Town." ”
Lo mei is a snack that everyone likes to eat, as long as they send lo mei to the restaurants in the county and other towns when they open, she dares to guarantee that the shopkeepers of those restaurants will definitely come to order with them, and they are afraid that they will not make money when the time comes?
When Qi Kangming heard this, he was very moved in his heart, and said: "Daddy, this business is done, don't hesitate, let's do it." ”
"Do it, do it, you mother and I don't hesitate." Gu Daya has already crossed the Qi plate and become the head of the family, and as soon as she makes a decision, the matter is settled.
But......
"Xiaoyu, we can't ask for this livelihood, you are out of the land and money, and you give back the food recipe, this livelihood is divided between our two families. If you don't agree, this shop will not be opened. "Gu Daya's attitude is very resolute, their family relies on the eldest brother and the little fish to get to where they are today, if they still shamelessly swallow this business alone, is it still human?
He also said: "You bought the land, and when the time comes, it will be your family's money to build a shop, and the shop should be yours, and it must be recorded in your family's name, and your aunt's family can't ask for it." ”
She was afraid that Gu Jinli would refuse, so she added: "If you want to give that shop to your aunt's family, then wait for your aunt's family to make money, and then buy it from you, is it okay?" ”
Gu Jinli is not a fool, so he naturally won't dislike having a lot of money, so he immediately agreed: "Cheng, then let's split the account fifty-fifty, shop and land, and wait for you to make money, and then buy it from me." ”
Gu Daya was overjoyed: "Eh, okay, it's decided." ”
After Gu Daya's family's livelihood was decided, Gu Jinli began to prepare the brine the next day, preparing to boil the brine.
was busy at home, and the door of his yard was suddenly slammed.
The person who knocked on the door was very rude, slammed the courtyard door, and shouted loudly: "Gu family, open the door quickly, the old woman is bringing joy to your family." ”
After speaking, he opened his throat and sang a tune that Gu Jinli had never heard.
The song has the singing tone of Peking Opera, and Gu Jinli can only understand the words of good years, good surnames, and marriage.
She frowned and walked out of the kitchen, and the third grandmother had already asked through the courtyard door, "Who are you?" Got the wrong person, right? ”
Gu Jinli didn't understand the folk song, but the third grandmother knew, this is a happy ballad, and it has always been sung only when the two families are married or married.
There are also some matchmakers who will sing when they come to the door to say goodbye, but that is already set by the other two families, and they want to have a lively time, so that the matchmaker will be so high-profile.
Their children didn't tell anyone about the marriage, and the matchmaker came to the door, still singing this kind of happy ballad, which made the third grandmother very unhappy.
