Chapter 254: Food
"No one is born to do things, they are all forced by life, slowly honed, Shu Ping has been spoiled since he was a child, because of his weak body, everyone has been by him since he was a child, and when it comes to marrying a daughter-in-law, you are obedient to him, and he thinks that everyone lets him, it is all for granted, and he doesn't know what gratitude is! I just want him to know how difficult it is to survive and how much affection he has failed before! Otherwise, he will never know how to grow up, and he will never understand what responsibility is! Besides, he himself is going to be a father, and he still needs others to support him, what is the reason? Will he still have children in the future!? ”
Xu Huifang bit her lip, "My child, I raise it myself!" ”
"What is this called! Must be raised by him! He's good, is he a ready-made father? Or Huifang, you have to tell the child that he has no father, and he is not allowed to see his father for the rest of his life? ”
Xu Huifang didn't speak, Chen Qiaoqiao patted her hand and said, "Don't think about it, just rest well!" ”
Chen Qiaoqiao felt sleepy and wanted to make up for sleep, but she basically didn't sleep much in the palace last night! "Mother-in-law, what's going on with Hu Feng?" Although Xu Huifang and Hu Feng are not good friends, after all, they have lived together for several years, and they are still a little sad in their hearts.
"Alas!" Chen Qiaoqiao sighed, "This is the most headache, we searched for a long time, but we just found a strip of Yunjin cloth, which is really useless!" "I told you the ins and outs.
Xu Huifang was very surprised, this matter was actually related to the Wei family? "So I think that such a big clan is not something we can afford to provoke, so we can only turn to the government for help!" Chen Qiaoqiao said melancholy.
Xu Huifang pondered for a moment, "Mother-in-law, this matter is not said like this, I think, discuss with Bao Fu Yin, don't make a big deal about it, think about it, the Wei family is so big, we are looking for a torn clothes, how difficult is it?" I'm afraid that if we enter through the front door, someone will dispose of the clothes from the back door, or burn them! ”
Chen Qiaoqiao thought about it for a while, it was really like this, if this Bao Fu Yin revealed the news that they had found Yunjin, it would inevitably destroy the evidence!
I didn't expect this Xu Huifang to have such a thoughtful side. "You're right, it's about trying to find a new way!"
Xu Huifang thought for a moment and said: "Mr. Liu's hometown is in Nanjing, which is the origin of Yunjin, she is well-informed, maybe she will find something?" ”
Chen Qiaoqiao's eyes lit up, this is not a bad way, now at this time, as long as there is a little hope, you have to take advantage of it. If Hu Feng's matter is not resolved for a day, the Chen family is afraid that they will not be able to get peace for a day!
"Yoko! Yoko! Chen Qiaoqiao shouted, "You go to the third young grandmother's mother's house to have a look, just say that we have something to ask for advice, please ask the in-laws and Mr. Liu to come to visit, at this time, I am afraid that they have not used the meal, ask the Wu second family to cook a few more good dishes!" ”
Yangzi promised to go, Chen Qiaoqiao suddenly lowered her voice and gossiped: "Huifang, how are your father and Mr. Liu?" ”
Xu Huifang was a little embarrassed, "My father, mother-in-law, you don't know yet, even if I am his daughter, I have to say that he is a piece of wood!" This Mr. Liu came to this private school to be his companion in a low voice, doesn't he know what it means? He was stunned and made a look of indifference, he thought that he had done a good deed and took in Mr. Liu, he didn't want to think about it, Mr. Liu's talent and appearance were obvious to all, it was not easy to find a good home, she clearly couldn't let go of my father! I'm really anxious to see it! ”
Chen Qiaoqiao laughed, the literati are pedantic, and they are self-assured, but they can't let go, so it's the most difficult. "You didn't tell your mom and dad?"
Xu Huifang sighed, "I don't know how many times I've said it, my father just doesn't keep his voice!" ”
As he was talking, Xu Ziji and Mr. Liu came, "Huifang! Huifang! You're all right! Xu Ziji thought that there was something wrong with Xu Huifang, "My lord, Huifang is fine, I have something to ask Mr. Liu for advice!" ”
Mr. Liu is dressed in an elegant dress, but she can't hide her Chu Chu moving, that style makes Chen Qiaoqiao sigh deeply, it is the innate elegance, and the maturity that has gone through the baptism of the years, people can't bear to look away.
"Mrs. Chen is really polite, if there is anything to order, the concubine must know everything and say everything!" Mr. Liu smiled slightly, infinitely moving.
Si Zuo and Si You were also very happy to see Liu Sheng coming, although they are now in the Open Book Academy, but when they have time, they will still go to Mr. Liu for advice.
"Mr. Liu said that, you're welcome! Here's the thing......" Chen Qiaoqiao was about to say the whole story, "It's time to eat!" Wu Erjia's loud voice shouted.
Chen Qiaoqiao felt her stomach growling, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, let's eat first, Wu Er's family, don't say it, I haven't eaten your food for a day, I really miss it!" ”
Wu Erjia said with a smile: "My cooking skills are not trained by my wife?" "Since coming to this jujube garden, the life of this Wu Erjia has been much more nourishing! She made the meals in the jujube garden, and the profits of the jujube tea were shared by her, this time they were all dozens of taels, and she didn't dare to think about it before! Every time she took the money back, the joy and reverence of the family made her feel so comfortable that she didn't know how comfortable!
Besides, Chen Qiaoqiao saw that it was not a matter for them to be separated from each other, especially arranged for his man to work in the jujube garden, because Chen Qiaoqiao saw that the business of this jujube flower tea was good, and he wanted to become bigger in the future, so he bought all the land near the jujube garden and planted jujube trees!
What a big project is this, it was all handed over to Wu Er's family, their family was originally plowing the land, how could it not be done?
How much is the salary here, the family is reunited, and the Wu Er family can see their eldest grandson every day, I don't know how happy they are! Besides, her daughter-in-law is also a diligent person, as long as the child is asleep, she will come to help pick tea, laundry or something, everyone praises her, and also gives Wu Er's long face.
Chen Qiaoqiao couldn't help laughing, "We two grandmothers are so improper!" The juniors died of laughter when they saw it! ”
"Oops! What does Madame say about this? How can I compare with my wife, it really torments me! "Wu Erjia's current submissive Chen Qiaoqiao is called a submissive person, and her admiration for Chen Qiaoqiao is from the heart.
"Less poor! What are you preparing for today? ”
"I know that Madame is coming back, and I have prepared a lot of dishes that Madame likes!" Wu Erjia went to serve the food with a smile.
"Iron pot eggs! Yes! Wu Er's family, how do you know I want to eat this! Looking at Wu Erjia's big plate of eggs, Chen Qiaoqiao couldn't help but scream, this dish is made of fresh eggs with ham, magnolia slices, camelina and other small dices, add seasonings, stir well, put into a special covered iron pot, and bake over a slight fire; Heat the lid of the pot and cover it red, and the eggs will expand quickly and bake. The color is purple and red, the texture is delicate, the fragrance is mellow, and the entrance is refreshing. It's very delicious, Si Zuo and Si You can't help it, "Wu Er's family is biased!" Only my mother will make good food at home! "Wu Erjia is in a hurry," Miss said so, I won't agree!" Have you forgotten the butterfly show I made yesterday? Si Zuo scoffed, "What colorful butterflies play peonies?" It's mung bean cake and red bean cake! ”
Dongmei smiled and said, "Miss, don't say that, it's hard for the Wu Er family to come up with such an elegant name!" Everyone laughed, but Wu Erjia was calm, "I'm just a layman, aren't I?" ”
Waiting for the dishes to be served, Chen Qiaoqiao was full of praise, and introduced them to Xu Ziji and Mr. Liu one by one, "This clear soup white fungus pigeon eggs is made with pigeon egg yolk and starch, with white fungus, mixed with clear soup, and cooked with a variety of spices. The soup is mellow and fresh, crystal soft and tender, and rich in nutrients. And this, it's a test of dog meat, this is a famous dish! I said Wu Er's family, where did you get this dog meat? ”
Dongmei replied with a smile: "This is sent by Madame's brother!" As soon as Chen Qiaoqiao heard it, she knew that it was sent by a big dog, and looking at the joy in the corners of Dongmei's eyes, she suddenly remembered something, "Dongmei, you're in a mess!" You call me Mrs., but you are going to become my sister-in-law in the future, so you are the same generation as me, Si Zuo and Si You's aunt, and Xiaobao's aunt and grandmother?! The more she talked, the funnier it became, and Chen Qiaoqiao couldn't help laughing, "Oops! It's a mess."
Dongmei's face suddenly turned red, and she stomped her feet, pretending to be displeased, "Madam! So he threw down the curtain and ran out.
The test dog meat is cooked with good dog meat, which should be torn and plattered and eaten cold. The color is red and bright, the fragrance is rich, the meat is delicate, rotten but not greasy, the bones are scattered, and the hands are twisted like silk.
"Come, come, come! Eat it! Chen Qiaoqiao kept greeting, this Xu Ziji and Mr. Liu took a few bites, and they were full of praise, but this Mr. Liu remembered what Chen Qiaoqiao said to ask for advice, "Madam!" If there is anything that the concubine can help, please give her advice! ”
Chen Qiaoqiao sighed and said, "I believe you have also heard about Hu Feng, our family's Bonian almost became a murderer who forced people to death!" Fortunately, the clues of this incident were discovered in time, and the suspicion was lifted, but who the murderer of Hu Feng was, he still had no clue, and if this matter was not solved, it would be a big stone in his heart after all! Later, we found a strip of cloth, which was determined to be the murder weapon that strangled Hu Feng, and after inspection, it was Yunjin, I heard that Mr. Liu was from Nanjing, and he should know a thing or two about Yunjin, thinking if he could find out some related places. ”
Mr. Liu's eyes lit up, "This cloud brocade is a specialty of our Nanjing area, and Mrs. is asking the right person!" Speaking of Yunjin, there is a very moving story! ”
Si Zuo and Si You's little faces were lifted up from their rice bowls and hurriedly said, "What a story!" Mr. Liu, we want to listen! ”
Chen Qiaoqiao smiled slightly, "That's it!" Mr. Liu, it's a long night anyway, and there's nothing to pastime, so just talk about it! ”
Mr. Liu smiled lightly and said, "According to legend, there was a lonely small grass house in the west of ancient Nanjing, and there lived an old artist who worked for the rich man, his name was Zhang Yong. Every day, the rooster crows all over the place, Zhang Yong begins to get off the machine pit brocade, and he has to be busy until the third watch in the middle of the night before stopping. After a year, the sweat has dried up, the tears have flowed out, and the woven cloud brocade has been released like a long river. But the rich man, in turn, said that Zhang Yong owed him more debts. Once, the wealthy wanted to celebrate his birthday and forced Zhang Yong to weave a cloud brocade hanging screen of "Songling Crane Shou". Zhang Yong had no choice but to drag his skinny body and jump off the pit to throw a shuttle through the tube and weave cloud brocade. Poor old man with gray hair, where is the strength! After boiling the lamp oil, it took five and a half inches to weave overnight, seeing that the rich man was about to force the goods, the old man was so anxious that he burst into tears, he stretched out his hands, facing the towering mountains outside the door, and sighed to himself sadly: "Yunjin Niangniang, people say that you are a fairy who blesses our poor people in brocade, and now the rich man is forcing us poor people to death, how can you see death and not save ......" Zhang Yong was overtired, and fainted next to the loom before he finished speaking.
