Chapter 7: Loose Sugar
Li Jinyan had a faint smile on his face, touched her hair and didn't speak again.
Xia Sihan faced him with a touch of warmth in her heart, and only now at this time could she feel the warmth of home.
"Sihan!"
Mother Li's voice brought Xia Sihan back to her senses, she sniffed and raised her voice in reply, and then turned to Li Jinyan and said, "You wait, I'll help my mother bring food." ”
Li Jinyan nodded, looking at her back thoughtfully.
Although Sihan was reluctant to open his heart, he could still feel that his daughter-in-law was not an ordinary child, what did she go through to make her promise a lifetime to a stranger?
Li Jinyan endured the pain in his back and got up and came to the hall, Xia Sihan had already brought the cakes, because Li Jinyan had just subsided his fever, Xia Sihan didn't dare to give him meat and fishy things, and the cakes were served with rice soup.
"By the way, what are you going to do with that bear?"
During the meal, Xia Sihan asked him, this bear paw is a rare delicacy for those dignitaries, and the bear skin can also be sold at a good price, but I don't know what Li Jinyan thinks.
Hearing Xia Sihan ask him, Li Jinyan looked up and thought for a while and said, "I can only go to the town to try my luck, the bigger restaurant should be able to accept it, and I will go to the town to have a look later." ”
Xia Sihan nodded, "I'll go with you." ”
"Okay." Li Jinyan originally didn't want Xia Sihan to walk with him, but he had injuries on his body, and he was afraid that he would delay time by himself, so it was better for two people to go together.
"Jin Yan, call the tiger at the head of the village, you can take care of it."
Mother Li reminded him, and Li Jinyan responded repeatedly.
Outside the window, a figure flashed by, and Li Jinyan's eyelids jumped! It seems that after saving money another day, you have to make the fence wall of your house stronger.
After dinner, Li Jinyan went out for a walk and called Huzi for help. Xia Sihan calculated that it would definitely take a lot of time to go to the town this time, so he brought some cakes. In addition, I went into the space and took some spring water with me, and it was all right!
Knowing that Li Jinyan was going to drag the bear to the town, the people in Lijia Village came to see the excitement.
The huge black bear was lying on the wooden climb, and some of the bold ones went to tease, and for a time the small yard was crowded with people.
"Look! That's Li Jinyan's daughter-in-law, I think she looks quite thoughtful, much better looking than Ruoxia! ”
"What's the use of looking good, it's not for nothing if you can't do things! I see that she looks pampered, with fine skin and tender meat, and at first glance she is not easy to raise! ”
"Yes, I haven't seen this girl before, why did she suddenly marry Jin Yan, the origin is unknown, I wonder which family escaped, right?"
Xia Sihan couldn't help but shake her head and smile bitterly when she heard the discussion outside in the room, she didn't dare to say whether it was good or not, but pampering was definitely not.
Before returning to the Xia family in her previous life, she had suffered a lot, and when she got married, she was planning all day long, and her heart was haggard.
Now that she is married to Li Jinyan, she knows how rare her life is now.
As for escaping, they were right, but they didn't want to go into that cage anymore.
Thinking so, Xia Sihan walked out with a bamboo basket.
Seeing everyone, she was generous, took out the candy from her pocket and scattered it.
"Uncle, aunt, eat sugar! I didn't invite everyone to drink the wedding wine when I got married to Jinyan, and I disliked this little candy. ”
As the saying goes, don't hit people with smiling faces, Xia Sihan smiled and gave candy, and those who said her before also closed their mouths embarrassedly.
When Li Jinyan came in with Huzi, he saw Xia Sihan greeting the villagers.
"Daughter-in-law!"
Li Jinyan came to Xia Sihan's side, and the people around him praised him with a smile.
"Jin Yan, you are really blessed to marry such a good daughter-in-law, beautiful and capable!"
"yes, it's much better than Ruoxia!"
Li Jinyan just smiled when he heard this, and Xia Sihan saw the young man beside him and thought that this should be Huzi.
"We can go." Xia Sihan's reminder made Li Jinyan react, and he hurriedly beckoned Huzi to help, and the surrounding villagers also automatically gave way to a road.
Li Jinyan and his entourage went out, and Xia Sihan greeted Huzi at this time, "Huzi? There were so many people just now that I didn't have time to greet you. ”
"Sister-in-law is polite, Brother Jin and I are friends!"
Huzi and Li Jinyan dragged the wood and walked hard, Xia Sihan carried a basket on the side, and walked from the village to the town for an hour and a half before arriving, and when they arrived in the town, Xia Sihan took them directly to Fanlou.
Ordinary guests can't afford to eat this bear at all, only Fan Lou can, if she remembers correctly, Fan Lou and Yipinlou in the city are the same boss, only Fan Lou can accept it.
"How many?" Xiao Er saw a lot of guests stop at the door and ran out dumbfounded.
Xia Sihan stepped forward and smiled, "I want to see your boss, this is the black bear we just hunted today." ”
"Okay, come with me."
Xiao Er hurriedly took them up, and Huzi was watching outside, such a big bear was not to mention a person from the town, even he rarely saw it.
"You're going to sell black bears?"
A middle-aged man about forty years old came out, looking them up and down, Li Jinyan nodded, and stepped forward to protect Xia Sihan behind him.
"I hunted it, Fanlou is the largest restaurant in this town, so we sent it over, the shopkeeper, you can make a price!"
After Li Jinyan finished speaking in one breath, the shopkeeper looked at the black bear outside the door, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"It's true that only we can collect it here, but your bear is injured, and the skin of the bear is not complete when it is peeled off, so let's do it, thirty taels!"
Thirty taels?!
Xia Sihan said strong in his heart, quickly grabbed Li Jinyan, walked to the front and said: "Shopkeeper, I heard that there are many distinguished customers in the Yipin Building in the city who like to eat bear paws, I think there should be a better price if I pull it over there to sell it." ”
After Xia Sihan finished speaking, he looked at the shopkeeper, who pondered for a moment and took the initiative to raise the price, "Fifty taels, it can't be higher." ”
"One hundred taels, I will also offer specific bear paw methods, I promise not to disappoint you."
Xia Sihan looked at him with a smile, the shopkeeper obviously didn't believe that a country woman would make bear paws, but he still agreed.
"In that case, how about a few people please wait a while and help me do it before I leave?"
Xia Sihan thought about it and nodded in agreement, Li Jinyan was very surprised, the bear's daughter-in-law will do it too?
Li Jinyan pulled Xia Sihan's sleeve, Xia Sihan turned his head and smiled, reassuring him.
In her previous life, as a queen, she also enjoyed it for a while, and she also learned the method of bear's paw from the chef in the imperial dining room, because Murong Yu liked it, she learned this dish, but he was delayed before she could make it. Now that I do it, my mood is naturally very different.
Huzi and Li Jinyan were waiting in the back kitchen, watching Xia Sihan tie his apron and start skillfully, they were all stunned.
