Chapter Forty-Seven: The Golden Python

If it was usual, as long as Xia Li gave an order, Dangdang would shoot it out like an arrow. But now, it just doesn't go, humming and hugging its legs, like a child pulling the way.

Xia Ju was very surprised and said, "Sister, I want to go to the county seat with you." He squatted down and persuaded it, "Be good, my mother and sister are going to do business, and when they come back, I will be your real brother." ”

Xia Li also whispered to it, "You want to see him, right?" Tell you, if you are seen by him, you will be taken away by him, and we will never see each other again. ”

When Dangdang heard this, he had to hang his head and walk to the backyard.

At this time, it was the time for the peasants to go to the fields, and the village was full of people. Yesterday's quarrel in the Xia family's compound has spread throughout the village, and today when they saw Xia Li holding a little boy, they all knew it. glanced at the boy with interest, and smiled at Xia Li, "This child is your brother?" Tsk, clever, beautiful, much stronger than the three leopards. ”

Xia Li smiled brightly, "His name is Xia Ju." ”

"Oh, Ju Boy."

Xia Ju has been here for more than half a month, and today is the first time to go out. He knew that he was going to be a summer gathering forever, so he was very happy and let others look at him. When my sister asked him to call someone, he called sweetly.

The Yellow Widow has a six-year-old grandson, the big name Wang Tiedan, and the small name Tie Dan'er.

Xia Li gave the bag of caramel to Tie Dan'er, handed Xia Ju's little hand into the hands of the Yellow Widow, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to trouble Aunt Wang." ”

Widow Huang smiled, "You're polite to the girl." Don't worry, I won't let that evil woman from Xiao Yang enter my house. "The yellow widow has been widowed for many years, and she is very spicy.

Xia Li came to the entrance of the village, there were already a few people on the donkey cart, and Xia Shan was waiting with a tall horse.

When they arrived at the county seat, Xia and Zhou Li were going to the county office, and she went to the restaurant to find them after she finished her errands. Xia Li and Xia Shan went directly to Yixiang Restaurant, which was a little early at this time, but it was too late to wait for the second ox cart.

Shopkeeper He had already been instructed, and when he saw Xia Li and the others coming, he greeted them with a spring breeze on his face, and asked Xiao Er to lead Xia Shan's horse to the backyard to feed the forage.

Entering the kitchen, Xia Li said what ingredients and seasonings he wanted. Thinking that the restaurant has all the things, she wants more ingredients, all of which are here, and pig blood is specially prepared. The side dishes and seasonings are so complete, the oil is enough, and the Mao Xuewang made it must be better than the last time she made it.

Xia Li smiled, "It's best if you have duck blood, the last time I used pig blood, it was because I couldn't find duck blood." ”

When Shopkeeper He heard this, he asked people to quickly kill a few more ducks and take the blood.

Xia Li picked a palm-wide strip of fine pork belly and said, "If you have the conditions, it's best to put the meat in ice cubes to freeze it, and when it's a little hard, ask the master with good knife skills to cut it into thin slices." My knife skills are not very good, and the slices of meat are not thin, which affects the taste. ”

Shopkeeper He hurriedly asked people to do it, and he was very attentive.

Lord Ye and Liu Gongzi are both noble-born, and Liu Gongzi's mother and his master are cousins. Although Lord Ye was relegated to a place where this bird doesn't, he will definitely return to Beijing for reuse in a few years. Kang Yizhi can survive, and there are few people in the Manchu Dynasty. Although Liu Gongzi was made by his stepmother to have no way to live to defect to his cousin, no one can shake the identity of his eldest son, and it is not surprising that the title of the son of the world cannot escape.

Hearing that the two of them were going to eat the dishes made by Mrs. Xia here, he worked hard to serve people well.

Shopkeeper He smiled again, "Little lady Xia cooks here, even if our chef avoids it, but we all know the ingredients and seasonings, and after looking at the finished product, we can roughly guess how to cook it." Uh, I can't let Xia Xiaoniang suffer, so I'll buy this recipe too. However, this dish does not seem to be too difficult to make, but anyone who has eaten it will be able to figure out the joints just by thinking about it. To be more precise, we buy the dishes, not the recipes, so we don't pay as much as the ice powder recipes. ”

He didn't say how much it would cost to buy it, but he had to watch it and eat it before deciding.

Xia Li knew that he couldn't avoid the restaurant chef when he was cooking, but he didn't expect that the shopkeeper He was willing to buy the house, but he was happy. still said politely, "Shopkeeper He is serious." This dish is easy to make and doesn't need to break the bank. ”

Shopkeeper He laughed and said, "Little Lady Xia doesn't need to be polite. Lord Ye and Liu Gongzi are famous for their tastes, and they made a special trip to Tongjiang County to stay in Tongjiang County for one night in order to eat this dish, which shows that the dish is extremely attractive. ”

When he said so, Xia Li was not welcome.

After that, Shopkeeper He accompanied the two of them to sit and drink tea in a small room. Xia Li pulled the words to the Jinpan python again, and asked if he had found it, what the python looked like.

Shopkeeper He said that no one had found it yet.

Unexpectedly, Xia Shan also knew that kind of python, and said, "It is said that it is a green background and a golden hexagonal plate pattern." According to the old hunter, it has a violent temperament and infinite strength, and it is best to avoid it if it is not for a few men with good archery skills and kung fu. That thing is not only powerful, but also valuable, snake gall is a good medicinal material, snake meat is delicious, snake blood is the most tonic people, can prolong life. It's a pity that no one has ever been able to capture it alive, and it is impossible to drink its blood......"

Xia Li's heart sank suddenly. Listening to the description, the snake she had seen was the Golden Plate Python. She pretended to be innocent and asked, "Third uncle, what if that big python comes to Qianshan?" My house is closest to the mountain, and I'm afraid. ”

Xia Shan smiled, "Don't be afraid of leaving. The gold-plated python is particularly rare, and it is only found in the deep mountains of Huaxiang Mountain. I followed General Ye into the mountains twice to fight bandits, but I never saw it, how could I go to the crowded front mountain......"

Xia Li didn't want to continue.

At the beginning of noon, Shopkeeper He sorted out his clothes and stood at the door of the restaurant to wait for the distinguished guests, and Xia Shan also went to wait with him.

Xia Li didn't go out and continued to sit. The restaurant will serve other dishes first, and the Mao Xuewang she makes is the last one.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the laughter of the shopkeeper He came, followed by the voices of several men, which was mixed with the voice of Liu Gongzi's male duck. Then, the voices went upstairs.

Xia Li was still a little curious about what the former owner of Dangdang looked like. Because of her weak heart, she suppressed the urge to go out and peep.

Actually, she really wanted to see Liu Changzhao again. Some encounters are really inexplicable, in this world, there is actually a face that is similar to Ye Feng.

Xia Li was thinking about the familiar face in her previous life, and the helplessness when she saw her willfulness, the small door opened, and a face that was one or two points similar to that face appeared at the door, but this face was still childish.

Liu Changzhao wore a golden crown, and he had much less time than the last time he saw him, so it seems that he still hasn't suffered a crime.

He grinned, "Little girl, let's meet again." ”
