Chapter 188: Digging the Foot of the Wall

Soon, she opened the envelope of the family letter, and took a look inside, the small letter contained a lot of things, she poured all her brains on the table, and what caught her eye was a rosy plum blossom hosta, the carved flowers on it were full of branches, and the plum blossoms were vivid, and it seemed that a burst of plum fragrance came to her nose when she held it in her hand.

The hosta texture is ingenious, the carving is clean, the lines are smooth, as if the clouds are flowing water, which is particularly pleasing to the eye.

Speaking of jade, although she doesn't understand the jewelry industry, but she knows that all good jade is crystal clear, the most important hosta tremolite content is very high, the higher the tremolite content, the stronger the grease of the jade, the surface of the jade will show a strong grease luster, and at the same time, the grease in the hand is also very strong, and the hosta she is now holding in her hand is as smooth as a piece of sheep fat.

She knew that this hosta must not be cheap.

Looking at the tabletop, there is also a wooden comb with exquisite carving, and a stack of silver tickets.

I counted it, it was a full ten, that was one thousand taels, he had only been out for a few days, how could he send so much money to himself? Where did he get all this money?

Confused, Duran hurriedly opened the letter and read it.

"Lady, this letter should be the Mid-Autumn Festival, on this day when it should be reunited, but I can't go home to be with you, so that the lady is lonely. At this moment, how I want to turn into moonlight and snuggle up next to my mother. Thinking of this, Duran walked to the window and looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and suddenly felt that she was not alone at the moment, at least he was thinking about himself in the distance. And the empty room is not cold, and the moonlight spills into the room, which is so warm.

A smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and Gu Youan's handsome face appeared in her mind, and she lowered her head and continued to read the family letter. On writing, it seems that Gu You'an's bright eyes are flashing: "Jing Nu Qishu, I am at the corner of the city." Love but not see, scratching his head and hesitating. Quiet girl, let me care. Tong Guan Youwei said that she was beautiful. Self-shepherding, beautiful and different. The beauty of the bandit girl is the beauty of the beauty, and the beauty of the ......"

Is Gu Youan expressing his longing for her? Although it is borrowed from other people's poems, the warmth of the veins in the poems reaches Duran's heart through words.

"Lady, I won't say love words, just understand my heart."

Duran was speechless, this love poem was explicit enough, sensible enough, what else did he want to say?

Bowing his head and continuing to look, "Lady, I can only give you these for the time being, but believe me, one day I will give you the most beautiful thing in the world." You take care of yourself at home, there is not much money, you can use it where you can use it, I will try my best to help you and help you achieve your dreams. I'm all right outside, don't read it! ”

Putting down the family letter, a light smile appeared on the corner of Duran's mouth, isn't a thousand taels of silver still a lot? What kind of money does he make outside, so he dares to say big things.

Putting away the silver ticket and putting it on the bedside table, Duran picked up the brush and replied to Gu Youan: The moon is born on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time. The lover complains about the night, and he is lovesick at night. The candles are extinguished, and the light is full, and the clothes are dewed. It's unbearable to give away, and it's a good time to sleep. You take care of yourself outside and eat well, don't worry about your home, everything is fine.

After writing, Duran raised his head and looked at the bright moon outside the window, and a burst of joy surged in his heart: The moonlight is good tonight.

The two figures separated from each other seemed to reunite in the moonlight......

This night was the most restful night for Duran after Gu Youan left home.

In the blink of an eye, two days have passed since the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the villagers have sold a lot of corn stalks to Duran, who uses the house as a house for fermenting soy sauce. The first stage of fermentation, steaming, drying, and long koji has been fermented. This is followed by a second stage of fermentation.

Duran found someone to move all the thirty water tanks in the yard to the room, added boiled salt water and pepper water to the tank, poured all the soybeans into the water tank, and then lit the stove to keep the room temperature at about 30 degrees.

At the moment, the climate is suitable, you don't need to deliberately light the stove, just cook and make a fire every day, and burn the stove for a while to keep the room temperature when the weather is slightly cool in the morning and evening.

After all this, the whole day passed, and lying in bed this night, Duran couldn't sleep for a long time, thinking about what she should do next.

Fermenting soy sauce is a long process, the shortest time is five or six months, and she can't be idle for this day.

Looking up at the bedside table, there was all her savings since she started her business, as well as the thousand taels of silver that Gu Youan had sent back.

Her cooking wine was not sold at that time, and it was basically supplied to Shilixiang Restaurant. Now she can't continue to cooperate with Shilixiang Restaurant, but her seasoning business will continue.

After thinking about it, she decided to go to the vegetable market that used to sell sweet and sour fish to see if she could find a suitable stall to buy and sell braised pork cooked food.

After getting up and having breakfast, Zhao's Du Liang came to the house, Du Lan explained the matter of keeping the room temperature to Zhao, and he went to Luo'an City with Du Liang.

As soon as I arrived at the vegetable market, I saw that Wuwei Zhai, which had come and gone before, was listed outside, and it was written that on the first day of the launch of the new dish, all the guests who came in to eat would be given a plate of new dishes to taste. The master in charge is hired from Shilixiang Restaurant High-tech, quality assurance!

Du Lan stopped in front of the door of Wuwei Zhai, she wrinkled her brows, Wuwei Zhai really dug up the stir-fry master from Shilixiang Restaurant?

No way? At the beginning, Xu Hening said that his cooks were all subordinates of the family, and they all signed a deed of sale, so they would not easily betray Shilixiang.

Is it a gimmick of Wuwei Zhai, in order to attract people's attention, the dishes of ten miles of incense are made by her, the patterns are fresh, the taste is unique, which is widely known in Luo'an City.

The shopkeeper greeted him outside the door, and the shopkeeper saw that Duran and Du Liang had been standing outside the door, and eagerly stepped forward to introduce Duran: "This little lady, please come inside, our family has a new dish, and the taste guarantees that the two of you will not forget it." ”

Duran wanted to deceive him, but stared at him and said, "Don't fool me, I understand that you want to attract diners to eat, but it would be an exaggeration to say that this dish is not in the sky or on the ground." ”

Du Liang echoed on the side: "That is, if you eat it with a bad taste, won't it greatly reduce your impression of Wuwei Zhai?" ”

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and quickly smiled: "Two, this restaurant is famous in Luo'an City and has a prosperous business, how can it be possible to deceive diners." The two of you will come in and taste it, and besides, we will give it away for free. ”

The shopkeeper emphasizes the word free.

Duran nodded happily, raised her feet and walked inside, she wanted to taste what this new dish tasted like, and then the noon meal was settled.

Du Liang hurriedly followed, and after coming in, the hall of Wuweizhai was already full of guests.

"Xiao Er, find me a private room, and then invite your shopkeeper Qiu, and say that I, Duran, have something to see him."

"Do you know our shopkeeper Qiu?" Xiao Er was stunned, carefully observed Duran, and found that she talked extraordinarily, so he led her up to the second floor and then found the shopkeeper Qiu.

In the private room, Du Liang was a little uneasy: "Sister, didn't we offend the shopkeeper Qiu?" Will he come to see you? ”

Duran thought to himself, they finally got acquainted, and Shopkeeper Qiu finally found an opportunity to squeeze him, and he should come.

Sure enough, Shopkeeper Qiu heard Xiao Er talk about Duran, hurriedly put down the account book in his hand and rushed to the second floor.

Knock knock!

Listening to the footsteps going upstairs, Du Lan was mentally prepared for negotiation, and as soon as the shopkeeper Qiu came in, he greeted him with a warm face: "Ah, Mrs. Gu is a rare guest, a rare guest." I haven't seen you for a long time, Mrs. Gu came uninvited, Qiu is really disappointed, and she is disappointed! ”

Duran has already done a good job of psychological construction, who knows that Shopkeeper Qiu not only did not turn his face, but had a respectful and enthusiastic attitude, which made Duran confused, what kind of trick is Shopkeeper Qiu playing?

"Shopkeeper Qiu, I saw that the master in charge of the spoon who had specially hired ten miles of incense was written on the sign outside your door, but is there really such a thing? Which master are you hiring? Duran asked with his doubts.

Shopkeeper Qiu smiled: "Of course it's true, I've been running a store in Wuweizhai for many years, how can I deceive diners." You also know this master, and I am ashamed to say it, Qiu Mou dug the master of Shili Xiang in many ways, but the master there was unmoved. Therefore, I had to invite the former Master He of Shilixiang. ”

"Master He?" I see, speaking of which, he is still a defeated subordinate of his own, no wonder Shopkeeper Qiu is ashamed.

Shopkeeper Qiu nodded with a smile, "Qiu heard that Mrs. Gu has terminated the cooperative relationship with Shilixiang Restaurant, does Mrs. Gu have new plans recently?" ”

Du Lan curled the corners of his lips, looked at the cunning face of Shopkeeper Qiu, and easily avoided Shopkeeper Qiu's sensitive question: "Shopkeeper Qiu is really well-informed, and the day I left Shilixiang is not a few days. Shopkeeper Qiu worked hard in private. ”

Shopkeeper Qiu sneered, his eyes shining shrewdly, "In this case, it is rare for Mrs. Gu to come to my Wuwei Zhai for a gathering, I wonder if Qiu can ask Mrs. Gu to help me with this level for the sake of our old friendship?" ”
