Chapter 113: Boat Dishes
[Please keep in mind the domain name of this site" ", or search in Baidu: Sanlian Literature Network] Evening can be regarded as the most leisurely time of the day. After a busy day, Ruixue can finally really stop and rest. She took out the work she did on weekdays. It's a spring coat, originally prepared for my father, but these days she always doesn't have much work, and the work on her hands is slow, and she has only done a small half of it now, and it seems that this dress can only be kept for her father next year.
I don't know what happened to my father. She asked Shang Kesheng, who came to the banquet today, but he didn't receive a letter, and even Mrs. Song's news hadn't been passed on for a long time.
Ruixue sighed slightly. Mrs. Zhao's second wife is there...... She has been nervous for the past few days, afraid that one day something like the last time will happen again, and she dreamed last night that those people really brought the corpse, and they placed it at the gate. If you really encounter it again, you won't have as much luck as last time.
What is going to happen to Mrs. Zhao? Cui Huaiguang's meaning is obvious, if you want to beat Second Mrs. Zhao and beat her back, let's not talk about whether it is useful or not, is it too late? Maybe they haven't defeated Second Mrs. Zhao's reliance yet, and Second Mrs. Zhao has already solved them.
Do you want her to get out of here first? Second Mrs. Zhao just followed Second Master Zhao to serve in Nanjing, and Second Master Zhao would not stay in Nanjing for the rest of her life, she went out to hide for a few years. When Second Mrs. Zhao is no longer here, she will come back.
Right! That's it! She told Cui Huaiguang about it.
Ruixue immediately put the clothes back in the small basket, cleaned up a little, and walked outside. When I opened the door, I saw Cui Huaiguang knocking on the door: "Shopkeeper Cui, why are you here?" I was about to go looking for you,"
Cui Huaiguang smiled embarrassedly: "Yes." Big girl, I'm bothering you. I'm looking for you to discuss. Go to my side, the shopkeeper is here. ”
Rui Xue nodded, reflexively took the door and went over with Cui Huaiguang.
"What's the matter? The shopkeeper also came. Rui Xue asked, it must be a big deal for Shang Kesheng to come here so late, but why did he still call himself over, could it be ...... "Did my father send me a letter?"
Cui Huaiguang smiled: "Miss Master Wang?" ”
Ruixue nodded. Except for the separation two years ago, she has never been separated from her father for so long, and this time it seems that they will be separated for a longer time, and she doesn't know any news about her father's whereabouts or anything like that. If it weren't for Mrs. Song saying that she would help her carry the letter, she felt that her father seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
Cui Huaiguang smiled. The little girl must not be used to being separated from Master Wang for so long for the first time, and after a long time, no matter how busy she is, it will not be like this. Just like him, he is not much older than Ruixue, and because Leminlou is not the property of the Song family, he has this opportunity to be the shopkeeper at a young age. He was also separated from his parents and siblings, and at first he would often think about his parents and siblings, but as time went by, he had more and more things to do, and there was less and less time left for thinking about his relatives. If he hadn't sent a letter to his family during the New Year's holidays, he would never have remembered it.
"Although there is no letter from Master Wang, I have a message from my wife."
"What did Grandma say?"
"Madame sent a letter to the shopkeeper of Shang, and it mentioned in passing, saying that she had already given your letter to Master Wang, so that we could rest assured."
"Really?" Rui Xue happily grabbed Cui Huaiguang's arm directly and asked him to say more, "What else, what else?" What else did Grandma say? Where is Dad in the capital? Is grandpa's body good? ”
Cui Huaiguang was grabbed by Ruixue's arm and shook it, he felt that his face was a little burning, fortunately it was dark, and he couldn't see it very clearly: "Big girl, you slow down." My arm. Madame only said such a sentence, where can I tell you. If you don't believe it, you can go to the shopkeeper's place to read the letter later. ”
Rui Xue was a little disappointed, only one sentence, since she met her father and gave the letter, why didn't her father reply to herself, could it be that grandpa's health is really bad, and it is not good for my father to reply to it and explain it.
Disappointment is disappointment, Ruixue still knows the truth. She couldn't read Mrs. Song's letter to the shopkeeper. She was already grateful to be able to mention it like that. At least she has news of her father now.
In this case-
"Shopkeeper Cui, I want to go to the capital to see my father, can you ask the fleet to take me to the capital by the way?" Rui Xue asked Cui Huaiguang, looking at Cui Huaiguang slightly stunned, she thought that Cui Huaiguang was worried that she would not be able to stand the hardships on the road as a girl, and said busily, "I won't cause trouble to the people on the ship, I swear, I will stay in the cabin honestly every day, and I really won't cause any trouble." ”
"Ruixue." Cui Huaiguang looked at Ruixue and muttered, "Why do you want to go to the capital?" That's what you said you were looking for me for? ”
Although it was very dark outside, and Cui Huaiguang's appearance could not be seen clearly, his gaze still made Rui Xue a little uncomfortable. Rui Xue lowered her head: "Shopkeeper Cui, although the incident that day was aimed at our Lemin Building, I know that in fact, Second Mrs. Zhao is trying to deal with me." I'll be fine when I'm gone. ”
"Are you trying to escape?" Cui Huaiguang sighed slightly, why did this girl think about how to dodge as soon as something happened, instead of facing it bravely, "Ruixue, do you know that escaping can't solve anything." Besides, can you escape for the rest of your life? Wherever Second Mrs. Zhao appears in the future, you will leave wherever you are? ”
Rui Xue played with the clothes belt, and she muttered, "I won't run away for the rest of my life." Second Mrs. Zhao will not stay in Nanjing for the rest of her life, and when she and Second Master Zhao go to other positions, I will come back. ”
Cui Huaiguang shook her head, she still didn't understand what she meant: "You ran today, and you will run tomorrow, when will you be a head?" Have you ever wondered. Without Second Mrs. Zhao, and Third Mrs. Zhao, would there be people like Second Mrs. Xu? ”
Rui Xue denied it repeatedly: "No, I won't meet such a person again." That will never happen again. "Second Mrs. Zhao is like that, it's all because of Zhao Xihou's relationship with her, and when she goes to other places, there will be no such situation.
"Can you guarantee it?"
Ruixue nodded. She promises, absolutely.
Cui Huaiguang shook his head a little wordlessly, it seemed that he should change his approach: "Ruixue, when someone came to our restaurant to kick the restaurant before, did you think about moving the store to another place?" Wait for others to stop kicking the store, and then move the store back? Or do you say that you won't open a store, and wait for others to stop talking, and then open a store to do business? ”
"No......" Rui Xue knew what Cui Huaiguang meant, but ......., "But this is not the same at all!"
"What's the difference?"
Rui Xue desperately explained: "One is that my father has good craftsmanship and is not afraid of others kicking the hall. It's not like that. ”
"What's the difference? I think it's all the same. Cui Huaiguang vetoed Rui Xue's reason, "When others come to the gym, how can Master Wang know that the other party's craftsmanship is not as good as his?" Every time no matter who comes, Master Wang is very happy to take it, is he like you, thinking that I will go away, I will leave Nanjing and go to other places without having to compete with others? ”
"Nope."
"Ruixue. When I was an apprentice, a Mr. Chen once asked us a question. Listen to it. A man meets a hungry wolf in the vast grassland. Is he running or facing it? How do you choose? ”
"Run, of course."
"Wrong!"
"Wrong? Why? ”
"Good question. The wolf is already hungry, you are its prey, it is the food that it can live in, will it give up eating you because of your run? No. So only when you face this wolf and fight it can you have any hope of life. ”
"Then if you die......
"If you don't fight, you're not dead? If you fight, maybe you can kill this wolf, you survive, and it becomes your food. ”
Ruixue didn't make a sound.
"I have been with the master and the lady for a short time, and I don't know much about them, but I listen to the shopkeeper. The master's business was not so big at the beginning, and he encountered a lot of difficulties at the beginning of the business, and some people deliberately went against him, causing him to lose the business in Yangzhou's salt industry, and even the place to do business in Yangzhou was gone. However, do you know where is the general cabinet of our wooden brand? Not in Beijing or Nanjing, but in Yangzhou. Ye insisted on finding his original territory in Yangzhou. ”
For the matter of Master Song, Rui Xue heard about it for the first time. In the past, she only knew that Master Song's business was big and powerful, and he could speak well in the officialdom; But she had never heard of Master Song before he made his career.
Cui Huaiguang paused and continued: "Do you think Madame is amazing? ”
Ruixue nodded. Mrs. Song was the most powerful person she had ever met, and she didn't know how to tell others how she felt. She felt that it was a man, just like Lord Caoyun, a big official like the second master of Zhao stood in front of Mrs. Song, and Mrs. Song was still shining. Her temperament is enough to make these adults bow their heads and surrender.
"Madame is not going well. I've heard that somebody was against Madame at first, and Madame wasn't Madame at that time, she was about the same age as you, and seemed to be a little smaller than you. But she didn't stop being in front of that person because she was afraid of that person. In the end, I don't need to say it, you know it! ”
In the end, what can be done in the end. Madame Song must have surpassed that person, otherwise she wouldn't be here today.
"So, don't be afraid of difficulties. When you encounter something, you have to think about solving it. ”
"May I?" Rui Xue is really not so sure about Second Mrs. Zhao.
Cui Huaiguang smiled: "You forgot what I told you that day?" The strength of one person is thin, but it is not the same when several people are together. Learn to borrow the power of others. ”
Ruixue nodded.
It doesn't seem to have changed much. Cui Huaiguang breathed a sigh of relief slightly. He is really not good at reasoning, if it is Mr. Chen, it will definitely be better and easier to understand than what he said. He really misses the time when he was studying.
Shang Kesheng did not wait in the house, but sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, and sat with Feng Yuchu, Zhou Qing'an and several other masters, seeing Cui Huaiguang and Ruixue coming, and motioned for them to sit: "It's not a big deal to call a few masters to come." It's just that there will be a banquet in a few days, and I will invite all the masters to contribute. ”
Feng Wanfu still didn't squint, Zhang Baoming and Mao Er glanced at each other, and looked at Shang Kesheng again.
Shang Kesheng smiled slightly: "It's not a big deal. It's just an annual boat dish. It's just that this year's ones are bigger. So there should be more people to go, and our Leminlou is five masters. It's not all cooking, it's just an evaluation of the dish. Our Lemin Building masters are good players, so I would like to discuss with you. ”
Zhou Qing'an and his family used to cook boat dishes, but they didn't expect that this year they changed their tricks, not only to make dishes, but also to evaluate dishes. I can't help but look forward to what I will do this year.
Feng Wanfu revealed that Nanjing didn't know anything about boat dishes, and under Zhang Baoming's explanation, he realized that in fact, boat dishes are just a feature here, and in fact, they are also a kind of disguised cook's exquisite skills.
"Big girl, I called you here because the Governor of Caoyun specially ordered fish ball soup, and you should go with you that day."
*
Boat cuisine: a kind of banquet pursued in Suzhou and Yangzhou in the Ming and Qing dynasties, also called a boat banquet. As the name suggests, it is to cook on a ship and eat on a ship. Most of the things taken from the boat dishes are river fresh, and they are eaten freshly, and the taste is the most delicious. If you are interested, you can take a look at the Qing people's notebook "Tongqiao Yiyi Lu", which introduces the scene of the Suzhou boat banquet.
