Chapter 186: Miss Hou Mansion Shen Miaolan
Hua Manxi slept until dawn, she was still the latest in the family, uncle and aunt, Xiao Yezi and Da Yang, Xiao Song, Hua Lanxiang, got up early, and they had already wrapped half a basket of wontons.
Uncle Hua has been a farmer all his life, where have I ever seen such a fast money-making man, a whole day is a few hundred taels of silver, which is worth the money he has earned for most of his life.
So the uncle and the aunt think that they can sell more, after all, this food festival is only time, and the third watch will get up to make wontons.
"Get up, eat something and go out again, I'm afraid you'll have to be busy today." When Hua Lanxiang saw her daughter get up, she quickly got up and brought a bowl of wonton, and said, "Now that business is busy, I don't have time to do anything else, just wonton, this is shrimp filling, you can taste it." ”
Although Hua Manxi has superb cooking skills, she doesn't have any picky stinky problems with food, as long as the taste is not unpalatable, she can deal with it.
Immediately sat down and ate wonton with Danyun, and then went out.
"Uncle, now there are many people in the county, there are all kinds of people, we merchants are also wealthy, the silver must not be exposed, hide it, if you meet strange guests, don't let them enter the yard."
Hua Manxi felt that it was the first time for them to do business, and he was a little uneasy, so he admonished again: "There are also those who take silver tickets to exchange money, don't redeem them, let them go to the money, some scammers are clever, and the silver tickets they make are like real ones, take a hundred taels of silver tickets to exchange for eighty taels of broken silver, if they are greedy for cheap, they will be fooled." ”
"There is still such a ......" Uncle and aunt really didn't guard against this layer, and their faces changed several times in fright, "There are still such bad people......
"Of course, there are more people in business in the face of all kinds of people, and it is always right to have a more guarded mind, and there are also those who use silver tickets to consume, if they can not collect it, they will not accept it, and the small amount should be cautious to see it clearly, and the large amount will say that it cannot be found, and if it is not easy to mess with the person, a bowl of wonton will be given to him." Hua Manxi said with a serious expression.
"Hua Xiaochu is right, there are indeed people who specialize in forging silver tickets, some will go to those honest stores to spend and give change, and some will exchange directly." Uncle Zhao, who was eating wonton, also said slowly, and agreed, "But don't worry, our son-in-law is the one who opened the bank, if there is a silver ticket, just take a look, and no cow, ghost, snake or god can escape the eyes of my shopkeeper Zhao." ”
Xu Jinfei opened a money bank, Hua Manxi had already heard about it, and he was much relieved to hear Uncle Zhao say this, and said to Uncle Zhao: "If Uncle Zhao is in charge to collect money for you, I will be much more relieved, I'll go first." ”
However, Hua Lanxiang looked at Uncle Zhao with a smug face, and said with disbelief on her face: "It's just you, this cowhide is really blown, and I still say what kind of miracle doctor I am, it's not good to treat a back injury for so long, and now I'm the shopkeeper of Qianzhuang again, I really can do it." ”
Uncle Zhao didn't care at all, he smiled slightly, but he still had a little bit of the charm of a mature man, and said casually: "Why can't it?" If you keep this shop open for a longer time, then I will have one more skill, and I will be a money collection account in the wonton shop. ”
Hua Lanxiang had already learned about his cheekiness, so she lowered her head and continued to wrap wontons, and complained in a low voice: "The poor mouth kung fu is amazing, so I can't find the second one." ”
Uncle Zhao's ear power is very good, naturally it is very good, and he was unconvinced at the moment: "In addition to my poor kung fu, other kung fu is also very powerful." ”
These words were a little ambiguous, Hua Lanxiang understood, her face was slightly hot, and then she calmly sneered: "Yes, it's amazing, I saw it that day, riding a horse, it fell down with a snap, it's too powerful!" ”
Uncle Zhao: "......." is simply a shame for his life!
Here, Hua Manxi arrived at Wang's Mansion first, and planned to go to the shop with Wang Shishi to see if there was anyone who needed help, but before he entered the door, he saw Li Yuehui standing at the door with a snort, looking like she was going to kill someone.
As soon as she saw Hua Manxi, she immediately ran up, hugged Hua Manxi's arm directly, and said aggrievedly: "Manxi, you have to take me in, I can't live in this Wang Mansion anymore!" ”
What the? The county government has not opened the door in the past few days, Chen Xiuli lives in Wang's mansion, Li Yuehui is so focused on Chen Xiuli that she can't drive her away, why would she suddenly let herself take her in?
Hua Manxi was a little surprised, and looked at her suspiciously, only to feel that she was holding her stomach full of anger, and she wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry.
"What's wrong? Quarreled with Miss Wang? Hua Manxi asked.
"What do I quarrel with her, she lets me do everything, what do I have to quarrel with her?" When Li Yuehui said this, she was so angry that she almost vomited blood, "It's Cousin Chen, he brought two guests from Kyoto, those two women are too much!" No, that Shen Miaolan, she is too much! ”
"What's going on? They drove you away? "Hua Manxi is confused.
"This is not her house, why did she drive me away!" When Li Yuehui said of Shen Miaolan, she gritted her teeth with hatred, and stomped her feet and said, "She's one, one-"
Li Yuehui didn't read much, and at this moment, she really felt the helplessness of words and the lack of words.
"We made a supper last night, they didn't eat, they were afraid of getting fat, it wasn't dawn today, so they had to prepare breakfast for Shishi, Yao Xiaofeng only went to bed so late last night, can't you let the family sleep for an extra hour? It's really infuriating, forget it, I still dislike Yao Xiaofeng's cooking is not delicious, and I said that I want to invite you to cook! I scolded them twice, who knew that my father actually said me! And my mother too! Actually said me! The more Li Yuehui said, the more aggrieved she became.
"Who am I messing with? And my father and my mother, yesterday they looked at Brother Chen like a son-in-law, as soon as they heard that Shen Miaolan was Miss Houfu, it was like they had never seen the world, nodding at others, not to mention how respectful, and afraid that I would sabotage, who is their daughter in the end! I'm really going to be angry, anyway, I can't live in this Wang Mansion, I'm going to live in your house! ”
Hey, it turned out to be vindictive, that Shen Miaolan, Hua Manxi had a relationship last night, it is indeed not a simple character, and she feels that this Shen Miaolan seems to have an inexplicable hostility towards herself.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry, if you really want to go to my house to live, you can do it, I still have an empty room in my house." After getting acquainted, although the personalities were not so compatible, Hua Manxi did not have the reason to drive people out, so he still responded very gently.
"Chef Flower, you're so nice." Li Yuehui's fragile heart is now seriously frustrated, and she regards Huamanxi as her last straw, holding her arm and refusing to let go.
"Alright, alright, let's go inside." Hua Manxi comforted, and then pulled Li Yuehui into the front hall together.
"Stinky girl, run out after saying two words from you, will you take your father in your eyes??" As soon as Li Yuehui and Hua Manxi entered the door, Master Li scolded with a slap on his face, "You see how sensible Miss Shen is, and she apologized to you, how valuable is this jewelry, what do you want?" ”
"Dad, are you mistaken! What's wrong with me? Is she picky, is she justified? Chef Yao is a master chef invited by Shishi at a high price! It's not a maid who sells herself! She's Miss Houfu, she's amazing! Li Yuehui is a hundred people who look at Shen Miaolan unpleasantly, and complained unconvinced.
"Miss Li is right, it's true that I didn't think about it, I didn't wake up this morning, I thought it was in Beijing, I apologize to you and Miss Yao again, it's my fault." Shen Miaolan was also in the hall, and when she heard Li Yuehui and Master Li arguing, she hurriedly came over and apologized in a low voice.
"Listen, Miss Shen has apologized, you don't know what's wrong, it's true!" Master Li glared at Li Yuehui again, and then looked at Hua Manxi behind Li Yuehui and said, "This is the chef with good skills you said?" Since she is here, let her make a few dishes for Miss Shen and Miss Chen to taste. ”
Li Yuehui was about to laugh angrily: "Dad, you think this is your Li Mansion, and Chef Hua is your cook?" ”
"Isn't it just a cook, what's wrong with cooking a few dishes? It is her blessing to be able to cook for Miss Houfu in Beijing, hurry up and take her to the kitchen, let her make some snacks to entertain Miss Shen, and when your uncle comes back from his inspection of the shop, he will definitely approve of it. ”
"Daddy!" Li Yuehui looked at her father in disbelief, "You-"
"Forget it, Master Li, since Miss Li doesn't want her friends to cook for us, we are not reluctant, I see that Master Wang and Miss Wang are also very busy, Xiuya and I will go to Brother Chen to eat out casually." Shen Miaolan said apologetically.
"What friend, isn't it invited by Wangfu? Where are friends! Master Li frowned, glanced at Hua Manxi with some disgust, and urged Li Yuehui to say, "Hurry up!" ”
"I'm sorry, Master Li, Miss Shen, I'm really not the cook of Wang's Mansion." Hua Manxi has lived a lifetime longer than Li Yuehui, and she has really seen too much of a pretentious white lotus like Shen Miaolan, sneering slightly in her heart, but her face is respectful.
"That's right, Manxi won't cook for you people!" Li Yuehui nodded heavily and said solemnly.
"Looks like this chef has a lot of money." A contemptuous voice interjected, Hua Manxi raised his eyes slightly, and saw Chen Xiuya walking over slowly, full of momentum.
"Yes, yesterday I heard the maid in the house boast about how superb her cooking skills are, and even the disciples of the imperial chef can compare, so I said, where does this small place know what imperial food is, but it is just nonsense from some people who have never seen the world." Shen Miaolan answered lightly.
