Uncle Zhao and Qingfeng looked at the fried conch that Xu Dashizi put on the table, and then looked at the two bags on Xu Shizi's forehead, and they all showed regret and emotion.

"Childe, you made it look like this in order to bring us stuttering, the old slave is simply beyond retribution, so let's try what Childe brought back first." After Uncle Zhao expressed his loyalty in pain, he quickly picked up a conch and sucked it hard.

"This, Uncle Zhao, what is this?" Light Breeze and Light Cloud are not as well-informed as Uncle Zhao, and they are a little puzzled.

"You don't know that, do you? This is seafood. There is no sea in Kyoto, not to mention the frontier, this seafood is fished out of the sea, Peach Blossom Village is close to the sea, this is a conch, the meat is delicious and tender, with chili peppers, ginger and garlic, remove the fishy smell, eat delicious teeth, delicious and abnormal, is chicken, duck, fish and sheep are not comparable, I was fortunate to eat once in Yipinju, these seafood are common things at the seaside, but to Kyoto, it is rare to play! It's hard to buy! ”

After Uncle Zhao explained, he quickly took another one and brought it to his mouth: "Look at you who don't know how to eat, look at me, like this, suck hard, and the meat will come out." ”

Qingfeng and Danyun had already taken the conch in their hands, and they didn't know where to start, so they listened to Uncle Zhao's suggestion and quickly sucked it according to the method taught by Uncle Zhao.

When the meat is really sucked out of the shell, it is delicious and has a spicy taste, which makes people want to stop.

"There's really no such thing in Kyoto." Qingfeng admired, "If it is really a party of water and soil to raise a person, this thing, when it comes to Yipinju, it can't make the taste of a small village girl." ”

"That's really, I've eaten Yipinju, it has a fishy smell, and it is directly steamed and dipped in sauce, which is really not as good as the practice of the little village girl. This thing is spicy and delicious, just under the wine, light clouds, take the old man's wine, let's have a drink. ”

Uncle Zhao's wine is aged Lotus White, and Xu Jinfei also drank a glass.

The wine was mild, but the taste was spicy enough, he put down the wine glass, and actually said in a ghostly manner: "This snail is too spicy, it should be stuffed with osmanthus." ”

"Oh, Childe, didn't you say that osmanthus is sweet and greasy, and it is a wine that only girls drink?" The breeze shook her jaw and was very surprised.

"You know what." Xu Shizi glanced at him, "Eat your snails, remember to wash the dishes after eating." ”

With that, he went straight back to his room. That night, Xu Dashizi dreamed.

It's still a beautiful spring dream.

When he woke up early in the morning, Xu Shizi looked at the embarrassing marks on the bed, his face was so red that he could fry an egg.

This damn little village girl! Cause him to have such strange dreams! It seems that his symptoms of unadaptability are getting worse and worse.

Hua Manxi, who was not far away from the Hua family, got up early in the morning and sneezed a few times.

My uncle and aunt sent Komatsu to the academy early in the morning, and she made some food in the stove room at random, planning to marinate all the kelp she brought back after breakfast, save it, and eat some more when she wanted.

However, before he could start his work, there was a knock on the wood door outside the courtyard.

"Who?" Hua Manxi trotted over and asked first.

"Manxi, it's me, Uncle Li." Answer the door.

Uncle Li? He hurt his hand and is not at home to recuperate, what are he doing here?

Hua Manxi opened the chai door, and it was not only Uncle Li who came, but also Li Qiuqiu, carrying a lot of things in his hand.

"Manxi, Uncle Li is here to thank you." Uncle Li still had a cloth belt wrapped around his hand, and said in a low voice, "Thanks to you, otherwise Uncle Li might not be able to come back." ”

Uncle Li remembered that he was unfair to Hua Manxi because of his daughter's nonsense, his face became more and more guilty, and he said in a low voice: "Manxi, you are really uncle's life-saving benefactor." ”

As he spoke, he wanted to kneel, but Hua Manxi was startled and quickly jumped up to support him.

"Everybody's a neighbor, what are you doing? Even if it's not you, if it's someone else, I'll do my best to help, you get up quickly, go into the house and drink a bowl of water. ”

Uncle Li didn't step into the house, but looked at Li Qiuqiu, Li Qiuqiu immediately reacted, lifted the basket in his hand, and lifted the blue-gray cloth on it, which was full of baskets of eggs.

"There are no good things at home, but I have several chickens, these eggs, it's enough, you can take it." Li Qiuqiu said in a low voice, a little ashamed, and didn't dare to look up at Hua Manxi, "I was childish before, and I couldn't stop treating you." ”

"Uncle Li broke his hand, now is the time when you need nutrition, how can you send me so many eggs?" Hua Manxi shook his head, and only reached out to the basket and took out two eggs, "I also accepted this egg, and you can take the rest back to make up for Uncle Li." The past is gone, don't mention it. ”

As soon as she said this, Li Qiuqiu felt even more embarrassed, her face was so red that she suddenly put the egg on the ground and knelt down with a pop.

"Actually, I came today, there is one more thing I want to bother you, my father hurt his hand, I'm afraid I won't be able to take charge of the spoon in the future, my father said that you do better cooking than him, I want to worship you as a teacher, let you teach me to cook, and in the future, I will have a livelihood and take care of my father's livelihood."

"Hey, you get up first, get up first." Hua Manxi didn't expect that there would be such a show, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help Li Qiuqiu.

Although this girl is a little stronger, her heart is not bad, and now she knows that she has considered Uncle Li and Aunt Li, and the rotten wood can be carved.

"If you don't take this egg, I won't get up." Li Qiuqiu's voice carried a hint of crying, "I asked Uncle Liu to give gifts to the people who went to help find my father that night, but you haven't sent it here, they said that your family killed pigs for a while, and I am afraid that the bacon at home has not been eaten yet, so I gave eggs!" ”

"Don't cry, get up quickly, I'll take it." Hua Manxi hurriedly answered, put the eggs in his hand back into the basket, and lifted the basket.

With such a large basket of eggs, there are hundreds of them, and they are so heavy that she almost can't lift them.

"Then the apprenticeship-" Li Qiuqiu saw that she had accepted the eggs, so she burst into tears and smiled, and asked cautiously.

"I agreed, I promised, but I'm busy now, and I don't have any ingredients at home, so I don't know how to teach you." Hua Manxi is a little embarrassed.

"This is easy to do, isn't the Xu family at the head of the village a chef? I saw it yesterday, a lot of people haven't been recruited, if you go, you will definitely be able to go in, you take me, I'll help you help, isn't it? I don't want to be paid! Li Qiuqiu hurriedly said.

"This—" Hua Manxi suddenly frowned, "but I don't plan to go there to be a cook." ”

"What? I heard that the monthly money is thirty taels of silver! Thirty taels of silver! My father only had thirty taels of silver for a few banquets! Why should you have trouble with money? Li Qiuqiu didn't expect Hua Manxi to have no such plan, and his eyes widened in shock.

"The monthly money is indeed a lot, but to be a cook in someone's house, you have to sign a contract, and you have to sign a long contract, I am not happy." Hua Manxi explained.

"Are you stupid? People still want to sign a long deed! Then the days will be stable! Li Qiuqiu looked at Hua Manxi like a fool.

It's hard to explain to her. She can't say that Xu Gongzi recruited a chef, just to lower her price, right?

It's not impossible for her to be a cook, but it's only thirty taels of silver a month, which is still a little short of what she expected.

Besides, now she has more important things to do, she has to open the wonton stall first, teach her aunt, and let them have a stable livelihood.

"Qiuqiu, how do you talk to Manxi?" Uncle Li glared at her in displeasure, his eyes full of reproach.

Li Qiuqiu has restrained a lot since Uncle Li's incident, although he still wants to talk to Hua Manxi, but he still stopped talking about it with interest, and said instead: "By the way, Manxi, today my father bought a sheep and wanted to set up a banquet to entertain the son of the Xu family at the head of the village, thank them for their help, I am not very good at being a sheep, can you teach me?" ”

Hua Manxi looked at the basket of eggs in his hand again, and felt more and more that this was inappropriate.

Why did Xu Gongzi want to kill a sheep for hospitality, and it would be a basket of eggs to her? A basket of eggs is less than two taels of silver, and a sheep costs ten taels of silver!

It seems that Uncle Li's thanks are just a pretense, and it is true that he wants to recruit a son-in-law. This ghostly Li Qiuqiu! I can't get into the Xu family to be a cook, but I know how to pull her!

"Yes, I haven't eaten mutton for a long time, and it's time to open the meat." Hua Manxi saw through it, nodded his head, and showed an easy-going smile.

"Manxi, you're so nice!" Li Qiuqiu suddenly smiled, and asked sideways, "You often sell noodles in front of his house, and you can ask them to help, you must have some friendship, do you know what kind of taste Xu Gongzi likes?" ”

Xu Gongzi's favorite taste, it's heavy! Even cow green vines can be drunk! If you want to talk about friendship, there is also a point, after all, he has climbed through his window so many times.

Hua Manxi muttered secretly in his heart, but his mind flashed what Xu Jinfei said last night.

If you want to drink, you have to drink the strongest wine in the grassland, burn the bonfire, roast the whole sheep, dance—

"Look at Xu Gongzi, they don't look like southerners, they should be northerners, so let's make a roasted whole sheep."

"Roast whole lamb?" When Uncle Li heard Hua Manxi say this, he couldn't help frowning, "The sheep I bought is very fat, is it roasted?" ”

"As long as there is a fire, there is nothing that cannot be cooked, but it will take some time." Hua Manxi said confidently, "You go back first and let people kill the sheep, and I'll go over right away." ”

She hasn't eaten breakfast yet!

"Then I'm bothering you." Uncle Li was still very polite, and thanked Hua Manxi again.

"It's not troublesome, who is too troublesome to eat." Hua Manxi picked up a basket of eggs and walked into the house, and said to herself, "This basket of eggs is enough for me to eat for a long time!" ”

Her body bones look like she is stunted, but she really needs to make up for it.
