Chapter 56: Longevity Noodles
"But I don't know how to make longevity noodles!" Zhiwan is depressed, you have eaten the longevity noodles, take care of her hair!
“…… But the prince of the county must do it with you, "The cold wind is embarrassed, if you want to eat what others have made, grab a handful on the street, and Rongfu can also do it, you can't let him carry a bowl back casually, the lord is so shrewd, he will definitely not be able to get through."
"But I won't do it!"
“…… The prince of the county doesn't want others to make it, Miss Qin reluctantly makes a bowl for her, it's okay to be ugly or unpalatable. ”
“……。”
Ahem! The stone was choked, Sister-in-law Qian was busy patting him on the back, and her forehead was also a black line, Zhiwan was speechless, as long as she dared to love a bowl of longevity noodles, whether it was delicious or not, whether it looked good or not was secondary, then it would be easy to do.
"Can I wait until I'm full?"
“…… Then you hurry up and eat, you are still waiting. ”
Zhiwan continued to eat, Yao's mother also sat back, the cold wind wandered around in the small courtyard, Chen'er and Si'er stared at him, and stretched out their arms to him, the cold wind skimmed his head, don't look at me, don't ask me to hug, what does a big man say with a child in his arms!
Zhiwan had almost eaten, and after eating the small half bowl of rice in the bowl, he got up, Yao's mother was busy asking Poria to help, Zhiwan entered the kitchen, kneading the powder, collecting powder, and the cold wind stood outside the kitchen and stared, he was afraid that Zhiwan would be poisoned, so he had to stare at it to rest assured.
Zhiwan has made many noodles, thick and thin, but he has never pulled the noodles himself, and it was broken a little thinner than his thumb, and after failing more than a dozen times, Zhiwan was ruthless, and put the thumb-thick noodles into the pot, and the cold wind stood in the wind messy, is that a noodle? It's only as long as chopsticks, but it's as thick as a finger, which means that the master is very domineering in his life, but is it very short? It's so unlucky!
"No, the longevity noodles should be as long as possible, you are simply cursing my grandfather's short life."
“…… I said I wouldn't! I've done my best! ”
“…… So what to do? If someone else does it, you can't fool it at all, and you don't know how many secret guards are watching outside. I'll protect you, and the prince will be angry with me. ”
“…… I really won't, or you're going to take this back? ”
"My grandfather won't eat it, if he is angry, he can't drag you out of bed in the middle of the night to make longevity noodles for him, I'm not joking."
“……。”
Zhiwan resigned himself to kneading the powder, kneading the arm pantothenic, the shoulder hurt, Zhiwan gritted his teeth, and finally threw away the dough. Bluntly said. "I don't know how to make longevity noodles. Can I make him a birthday cake, that one can make a wish, it is more auspicious than longevity noodles. ”
Leng Feng pondered for two seconds and looked at the sky. It's really not early, go back to your life first, it's really not good, let the master come by himself, what do he want to do with such a thief, and I don't know if the master caught the master, "Then it should look better." ”
Poria blew the fire and grunted, "That's a lot to ask for!" ”
Making cakes is the specialty of Zhiwan. There are a bunch of eggs in the kitchen, and there is also goat's milk, and I know that I am very sloppy in the evening, and the cold wind is staggering, and I just kneaded the dough. I thought she was a big girl, but I didn't expect that as soon as I took the eggs, she would become an authentic village girl.
Seeing Zhiwan put sugar in the cake, several spoonfuls, Leng Feng hurriedly said, "The prince doesn't like to eat too sweet pastries, you can put some salt." ”
Zhiwan frowned and looked at Leng Feng, "Why don't you do it?" ”
Leng Feng turned around silently, "When I didn't say it." ”
Not to mention putting salt, Zhiwan can't wait to put pepper in it, it was very late at this time, Yao's mother took several candles to light it, and Zhiwan steamed the cake.
The pastry was steamed, and he was idle at night, thinking that the soldiers had clouds, and he knew that he knew that he would win all battles, so he asked, "Your county prince will get married next month, or will he marry the lord of Mingzhu and the four girls of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion?" ”
Leng Feng didn't think much about it at all, nodded, and Poria asked, "Didn't you say that the four girls of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion were running away from marriage, how to marry?" ”
Leng Feng glanced at Poria and saw that there was black ash on the tip of her nose, and couldn't help but touch her nose, "The fourth girl will definitely go back then." ”
"Why?" Puzzled, he was confident that she would go back.
"The prince said, the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion and the Zhennan Mansion are either in-laws or enemies, although the Dingyuan Marquis has military power in his hands, but if the prince wants to kill him, he can't even get out of the gate of the Hou Mansion, how to choose, Dingyuan Marquis can still not understand?"
“…… Why does the prince of the county have to marry the fourth girl, does he really want to kill the emperor? ”
"It's not necessary to marry, I don't even know what the four girls look like, what do you want to marry, it's just that the prince of the county is stubborn, if everyone didn't do anything at the beginning, the lord might not marry if he was troublesome, but they forced the lord, the lord was very angry, and he loved to ...... with them."
Zhiwan is speechless, marriage is a big event, how can it sound like child's play, please, forget about your child's play, don't count me as good!
Zhiwan decided to start with the cold wind and straighten out the prince of the county, "He doesn't like other people, isn't it too cruel to marry someone back?" ”
Leng Feng looked at Zhiwan in surprise, "You mean our master is cruel?" ”
Zhiwan stroked his forehead speechlessly, communication was too difficult, and when the pastries were steamed, Zhiwan took the basket and brought it to the cold wind.
In the wooden house, Rong Jingxuan was playing against Ye Guiyue, and the cold wind carried the food box in, Rong Jingxuan stopped, threw the chess pieces back into the chess piece, and said with a smile, "Your longevity noodles are here." ”
Babao took the chessboard away, and the cold wind sent the food box, Ye Guiyue opened it and looked at it, and his brows furrowed, "Where's the noodles?" ”
"Master, Miss Qin's longevity noodles are only arm-length, but they are as thick as a thumb, I don't know if they can be cooked, she threw it away, and prepared this cake for Ye, saying that she can make a wish, and she eats this on her birthday."
Ye Guiyue looked at the cold wind suspiciously, the cold wind stood there very firmly, Ye Guiyue looked at the four words happy birthday on the cake, and his heart moved slightly, "Take the spoon." ”
Babao went to get a spoon, Ye Guiyue picked a spoon into his mouth, his brows were twisted, his hair was about to stand up, Leng Feng thought he would spit it out, but he still swallowed it, continued to eat, and advised, "Let her put less sugar next time." ”
Next time? The corners of Leng Feng's mouth pulled slightly, Miss Qin will be married next year, okay, can she still run to let Miss Qin make a cake for her master, this is unreasonable, how can Miss Qin gain a foothold in her husband's family, but when she thinks of Miss Qin touching the prince of the county and treating Young Master Rong, it is estimated that she doesn't care. He nodded and wrote it down.
Besides, Zhiwan, I inquired a lot of news from Leng Feng, and Poria told Yao's mother all in one go, Yao's mother heard that the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion and the Zhennan Wangfu were hostile, her face changed, and she looked at Zhiwan in a daze, and she still opened her mouth after being entangled, "If it's true, what should I do?" ”
Zhiwan had a headache and reached out to rub his temples. Where did she know what to do. Although she is not really Qin Zhiwan. But after all, this body is someone else's daughter, and it is estimated that she can't do it if she doesn't save her when she dies, but if she goes back, what can she do? You can only take one step at a time.
Four days have passed in the blink of an eye. Rong Fu did not send someone to find her to detoxify, and King Yuejun did not come to find fault again, and stayed at ease at night, except for going to Shangyang Village to diagnose Jinbao's pulse, he almost didn't leave the yard.
On this day, Zhiwan was teasing the children in the yard, and a crisp call came from afar, "Auntie!" ”
Zhiwan glanced at it and saw Zhao Xiaocao running over. There was a windmill in his hand, hula and turning, and when he came over, he hugged Zhiwan's leg, called her aunt affectionately, and Zhiwan patted her little head. Xiaocao went to play with the dust.
Fang's and Zhao Silian also came, Poria served tea, and Zhiwan smiled and asked, "How is the preparation of the shop, when will it open?" ”
The smile in Fang's eyes couldn't be hidden, "The shop has been cleaned up, by the way, the second day of the next lunar month is an auspicious day, and it will be opened on that day, but what is the name of the pastry shop, I can't make up my mind for a while, and I ask you to help me think of one." ”
Poria couldn't help but say, "Isn't it famous, smashing the Junwang pastry shop, I think it's good." ”
Fang, "....... ”
Zhao Silian held back a smile and shook her head again and again, "This name is too ostentatious, the Zhao family is small, and it can't afford to provoke those who want to curry favor with King Yuejun." ”
Poria thinks about it, if the shop is a girl's, there must be no problem with calling this, "Zhao's pastry shop, let my girl name it, is Aunt Zhao happy?" ”
Zhao Silian's face was a little embarrassed, what Poria said was really right, her mother was really unhappy, but her mother said that she wanted to call the Zhao family pastry shop, which was also vulgar, the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law raised their hands in agreement, everyone knows what they are doing, the Zhao family is not only the third brother and three sisters-in-law, after calling it for a long time, this shop will definitely get the mother's hand in the end, and in the end it may be who's, but there is definitely no flaw in the third brother and three sisters-in-law.
So they can't call this name anyway, and they don't dare to oppose Liu's clearly, so they dragged Zhiwan out, this shop can be opened all thanks to Zhiwan, and Zhiwan will take the name, if Liu doesn't agree, Old Man Zhao will definitely knock on the table, but Zhiwan is embarrassed, what good name can she take?
If you want her to say, how good it is to smash the Junwang pastry shop, not to mention the uniqueness, but also high-end atmosphere and grade, with the story behind it, it must be popular all over the Yue Dynasty, it is best to let the Yue Junwang come to a handwritten word or something...... Then everyone will be happy.
But the Zhao family was timid, and they were powerless at night, and finally Yao's mother stood up, "Let's call it a delicious pastry shop." ”
The matter of the shop was decided in this way, Fang's came today, in addition to asking the name of the shop, the main thing is to learn to make pastries, the shop only sells five kinds of pastries, which is not enough at all, at least ten kinds, before Zhiwan preached to her, but Zhiwan was busy treating people, and had no time to teach.
After drinking a cup of tea, Zhiwan was about to get up, when suddenly his nose shrugged, a foul smell wafted over, and the stone came in dirty, and Poria scolded, "Stone, you shouldn't have fallen into the stinky ditch, it stinks!" ”
Before the stone could answer, Sister-in-law Qian took the broom and hit it, "Let you read and write with Mrs. Xu, you actually sneaked out to play!" ”
The stone dodged and dodged, but he was still hit with several sticks, and he screamed in pain.
Yao's mother hurriedly came over to stop and snatched the broom in Sister-in-law Qian's hand, "I didn't ask clearly, what to do with the stones, in case he has a hard time, see what you do!" ”
Yao's mother threw the broom, and said to the stone rubbing her arm, "If you have any grievances, just say it, Grandma Yao will call the shots for you." ”
Shi glanced at Sister-in-law Qian aggrievedly, pouted and said, "It was Master Xu who took us out, Master Li and Master Zhou were pressed to parade the streets, Master Xu taught us not to be corrupt officials, this is the end, who wants someone not to have long eyes, rotten eggs are not allowed to be thrown, and they smashed my head...... I just stink! ”
The more Shi thought about it, the more depressed he became, a large group of people, just one of him was hit by rotten eggs, and there were two!
After Poria was stunned, she couldn't hold back her laughter, the stone gouged out her eyes fiercely, her face was embarrassed, and Sister-in-law Qian's face was a little scolded, but she still scolded, "You deserve it." It must be that you are disobedient and run to the house, and if you don't hurry up to wash it, you will make the yard dirty. ”
Zhiwan raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect his secret guard movements to be quite numb, he arrested people so quickly and paraded in the streets, I don't know how many people will be unlucky next.
I was busy in the kitchen, and I had just steamed two pastries, and the stone came in. Holding a big red invitation in his hand. "Sister Qin. The girls of Rongfu asked to see, are they allowed to come in? ”
After the stone finished speaking, he heard footsteps behind him and looked back. It was Rong Qingxu and Bai Xiang, whose faces couldn't help but dry, "Who allowed you to come in!" ”
Bai Xiu tugged at the corners of her mouth, "I want to tell you that your words are also wrong...... ”
Stone guards the door, idle and bored, just read a book, or write on the ground, who would have thought that someone would be caught in the wrong place. The stone turned around and walked away angrily, and before leaving, he slapped the name card in Bai Xiang's hand.
Zhiwan cleaned her hands and walked out of the kitchen, asking, "Why did Miss Rong come to me?" ”
Rong Qingxu was disgusted. "Call me Qingxu, you are the same age as me, I will tell you to know the late in the future, I came to you today, just to ask my eldest brother about the cold."
Zhiwan invited her to sit down and asked, "Your eldest brother is sick again?" ”
Rong Qingxu shook his head, "That's not true, my eldest brother soaks in the hot springs every day, and it will take ten and a half days to get sick, but that day you said that you want to relieve my eldest brother's cold poison and ask for a silver snake, but after so many days, there is no news at all." ”
Poria helped pour the tea, and when she heard the words, she said, "Why didn't you catch it, didn't Rongfu post a notice, I also saw it, many people went to catch snakes, how could it not be?" ”
Bai Xiu shook his head, "There are many people who send snakes to the door, but there is no silver snake, it has only been five days, there are three people who lost their lives because of catching snakes, Mrs. Yesterday was helpless, and the reward has been raised to 1,000 taels, and the number of snakes sent to the door today is doubled, but there is no silver snake." ”
Poria cocos listened to it speechlessly, but she didn't expect that in the past five days, there were three people who lost their lives in order to catch snakes in exchange for reward money, this is really asking for money and not dying, but there is no silver snake, and the girl can't help it, can't let the girl help catch it?
Rong Qingxu came today, just to ask Zhiwan if there is any other way to detoxify, even if it takes more time and more money, this day drags on, Rong Qingxu is anxious, I don't blame her, Mrs. Rong is unwell today, let people ask for a doctor, that is, the doctor who used to give her a doctor, who thought that he was only in his forties, and suddenly died, Zhiwan is a bold man, he can die for money, who knows when he suddenly burped, finally Rong Jingxuan has three points of hope, if Zhiwan has three long and two short, How are they still alive?
Zhiwan understands their impatience, but the cold poison can be used in other ways, how can Zhiwan not use it, isn't there no way, Zhiwan twisted his eyebrows, "There is no news of the silver snake?" ”
Rong Qingxu shook his head, but Bai Xiu said, "I heard that silver thread snakes appeared in the three hot springs of King Yuejun, but many people tried to catch them. ”
Yes, but I couldn't catch it, Zhiwan turned around the teacup, his expression was slightly restrained, and after a while, he instructed Poria to say, "Bring pen and ink." ”
Poria cocos came into the house with a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Zhiwan wrote a recipe, Bai Xiu glanced twice, she is also literate, but how is this recipe wood, there is a medicinal herb, I saw Zhiwan give two recipes to Rong Qingxu, "One recipe is used to make incense, one is used to make snake venom, you let people take care of it and send it to me here, I will find someone to catch the snake." ”
Rong Qingxu looked at Zhiwan in surprise, "Can you catch it?" ”
"Ninety percent sure."
Rong Qingxu was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly got up and said, "I'll go back and let someone prepare, and I'll send it to you later." ”
After speaking, Rong Qingxu left in a hurry, Fang came out, and when he heard Zhiwan say about catching snakes, Fang asked him, "Do you want Zhao He to help?" ”
Zhiwan nodded and sighed, "I persuaded him not to lose his life to catch snakes, but I didn't expect that I would ask him to help catch snakes." ”
Fang Shi knew Zhiwan's temperament, and he wouldn't let people help in vain, "Didn't you prepare a pill for him to understand snake venom, you are ninety percent sure, Zhao He will be fine, go back in a while, I'll talk to him." ”
Zhiwan smiled and nodded, "Let him come tomorrow morning." ”
I made two more kinds of pastries, Bai Xiu sent fragrant wood medicinal herbs, in the evening, I was busy until midnight, Yao's mother had an opinion, this is a good thing to treat people, but you have to take care of your own body, right?
Early the next morning, when Shi opened the courtyard door, he found Zhao He sitting in front of the gate, and he didn't know when he came.
Such an obedient person, Yao's mother likes it in her heart, if only the girl's future husband could have him so obedient, Yao's mother even moved, if Zhiwan's marriage contract is canceled, that is, Zhiwan can get married, and it is not impossible to marry Zhao He, first, he knows that Zhiwan has married someone and has two children, and secondly, he is obedient enough and will hurt people, which is the most important thing.
Compared with marrying into the prince's family, fighting all day long, and being jealous, even the face of the husband can't be seen, Yao's mother would rather marry an ordinary person later, Yao's mother has such an idea, and she found that Poria looked at Zhao He's eyes a little different, Yao's mother smiled, and it was okay to marry Poria to him.
Zhao He came after eating a few steamed buns, but Yao's mother regarded Zhao He as a son-in-law, and vigorously served him vegetables, but Zhao He didn't dare to refuse, and ate as much as he wanted, and he almost choked to death.
Seeing his bitter expression, Poria covered her mouth and smiled, "What about the fool, can't you say it if you can't eat it?" ”
ps: Ask for a pink ticket, some of you have to lose one, thank you.
