Chapter 31 Preparing for the opening
The little รท said โ Net], the โ little รท said โ Net],
There were two people in the hall, one was older, with a thin body and a short beard on his chin, and he was estimated to be forty or fifty years old, and the other was young and handsome, dressed in black, with a temperament that could not be ignored, and he must have been of great origin.
Xue Su walked into the house with a teacup, and An Pingbo looked at the woman in front of him and couldn't help shaking.
Anning Village is just one of the villages and towns under Jingyang City, the water and soil are not abundant, the words are ugly, it is a poor and remote place, but the woman in front of her has fair skin and flesh, a pair of sparkling eyes, with gorgeous red lips and a plump figure, compared to the pampered daughter of a high-ranking family, it is not much stronger.
It's a pity that the woman's hair is combed.
After taking a sip of tea, An Pingbo said: "The two of us came from Jingyang, and I heard that Mrs. has a hot compress on her hand that can cure rheumatism, but is it true?" โ
Xue Su sat in front of the two of them, and said unhurriedly: "Naturally it's true, if the two adults don't believe it, please go to the villagers' homes to see, the hot compress method is not difficult, after the black beans are fried, put them in a noodle bag, apply them to the affected area, and then give the sick cow fennel powder, and it can be cured in three or five consecutive days." โ
Many horse doctors and pastors in the capital are helpless with this disease, but they didn't expect a little village woman to have such a solution, An Pingbo couldn't help but look at her in surprise.
Doctor Ma whispered: "This recipe is indeed effective, since the day of the outbreak of rheumatism, each village has lost nearly 100 cultivated cattle, only Anning Village is lucky, after losing more than a dozen, the disease is completely cured." โ
Although his voice was small, he did not mean to guard against Xue Su.
Listening to the conversation between the two in his ears, the snow-white little hand gently brushed the tea lid, and Xue Su couldn't help but think of the scene in the big house just now.
Although she ate a few sips of wine, she didn't reach the point of delirium, how could she think that Chu Qinghe's guy was a person who didn't know anything at all, so she directly brought herself into the house, if it wasn't for someone from the city, she was afraid that she would have suffered a loss.
An Pingbo caught a glimpse of the red lips that hooked up a sneer, and his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up a little.
Obviously, there are not many beautiful noblewomen in the capital, but he doesn't know what kind of demon he is, his mind is hooked by the woman who has already married in front of him, inhales deeply, An Pingbo is still a little sensible, and after asking all the matters related to the hot compress method, he no longer dares to stay in the Chu family, and leaves quickly.
Leaning on the door frame with a slender back, Xue Su looked at the backs of the two of them leaving in a hurry, gently wiped the sweat from his palms, and pursed the corners of his mouth.
In the previous life, the hot compress method was a recipe that was studied by the Tai Hospital for a long time, although she didn't come up with it, but using this method can save countless farming cattle, so that ordinary farmers don't have to go bankrupt and scatter their wives, and it doesn't hurt to borrow it, after all, Xue Su himself didn't get much benefit from it, but his reputation was better than before.
Because of her rebirth, she didn't dare to ignore the things of gods and ghosts, so she thought about accumulating more virtues and doing good deeds, and said that she couldn't live a more stable and smooth life in this life.
A rose was planted in the backyard of the Chu family, and now it is just in time for the flowering period, the pink and white flowers are blooming on the branches, exuding a faint fragrance, and many bees make a buzzing sound and fly out of the mountains to collect honey.
The reason why Xue Su will play with flowers and plants in the courtyard is to make a decoction, and she has long been familiar with the secret recipe left by Xue's mother, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is like a stream.
The decoction she wants to make is called Xianghong Drink, which is based on flowers such as roses and chrysanthemums, and then mixed with Dendrobium Angelica and other substances, steamed on high heat for two hours, and then brewed with rice wine, and when the wine turns into a clear bright red, drink a small cup every day, which can relieve the rosacea on the face and make the skin smooth and delicate.
Xue Su held scissors in his hand, carefully selected the roses in good condition, cut off the buds with a click, and put them in the bamboo basket he carried on his arm.
Chu Qinghe walked out of the big house, he listened to the movement in the backyard, walked over in a few steps, stretched out his long arm, and hugged the woman's soft waist with ease, this sudden movement startled Xue Su, and he almost didn't throw the scissors in his hand on the ground.
She turned her head, her apricot eyes overflowed with a hint of accusation, and she said angrily: "You walk silently, you want to scare me, don't you?" โ
Chu Qinghe shouted that he was wronged, he couldn't wait to become a famous husband and wife with a woman at the moment, so he naturally had to coax Xue Su well, and he was reluctant to let her suffer the slightest grievance.
Wanting to tear the thick palm away from her waist, Chu Qinghe was as strong as a bull, and it was not at all something that a woman with thin arms and legs could break free, she had a lot of effort, but this person still didn't move.
Later, Xue Su simply stopped struggling, slowly cut off the buds, and when the bamboo basket was almost full, he gently patted Chu Qinghe's arm, and Nunu said, "Take the basket to the kitchen, and I'll go get some golden chrysanthemums back." โ
Although he didn't know what kind of decoction the woman was going to make, Chu Qinghe was willing to let her toss, and when all the raw materials were ready, he took the initiative to take the rough work into his hands, and he was very busy adding firewood to the fire.
Xue Su was very happy, and went through the picked petals in clean water, drained the water, and stirred them with the cow's spinal cord thoroughly, and then put them in a porcelain pot and steamed them.
The temperature of the steamer is high, and after a while, the kitchen will be filled with curling water vapor, which is mixed with a rich and fragrant floral fragrance, this natural aroma of herbs and trees is a little more fresh than the carefully prepared spices, and the taste is not inferior at all.
After a busy afternoon, Xue Su looked at the wine vat placed under the eaves, and there was a trace of satisfaction in his eyes.
It is estimated that in another half a month, the fragrant red drink will be completely done.
Two bricklayers were busy in the small building every day, and it took ten days to build the courtyard wall in the backyard, taking advantage of this time, Xue Su took Liansheng to clean up the room in the building, and dug a few thorn roses from the mountain, and planted them in the yard, although it was still not in the flowering period, but the green leaves looked very gratifying.
As early as when he first started preparing for the private museum, Xue Su had already thought of the name, and he was called Yan Ruyu.
The private museum was originally opened for female guests, and most of the women in the world cherish their appearance, as long as the private museum can make them more beautiful day by day, customers don't have to worry.
Thinking so in his heart, Xue Su gritted his teeth, went to customize a signboard, and hung it on the small building.
At this moment, although the private hall has not officially opened, but because of the good location, it is on the main street, and the female guest who came out of the silk village opposite saw the words "Yan Ruyu", and thought it was a newly opened fat powder shop.
Since beating Liu Yiqing to lose weight successfully, she has become a handkerchief with Xue Su, and this day she came to the small building and said with a smile:
"Su Niang, you see that I have lost so much weight, it is really amazing, it is better for me to let my maids spread this matter, on the one hand, I can give Yan Ruyu some fame, and on the other hand, I can also wash away the humiliation I have endured over the years."
Hearing this, Xue Su couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
The Liu family is considered a wealthy family in Jingyang City, and for this reason, the only daughter is fat, so she has become the talk of the people in the city after tea and dinner.
Taking her hand and patting it twice, Xue Su said, "Why bother? Fame is all accumulated little by little......"
"If you don't talk like this, if it weren't for Su Niang who gave me Yang Liulu, I must have been looking like a crazy fat man weighing more than 200 catties until now, and I was sweating when I moved, how mad I was."
Liu Yiqing made up her mind to help Xue Su, and when she came out of the small building, she told Cui Fu, this maid is also a clever person, and directly found the long-term workers of the rice shop, and one of them gave two coins of silver, and the long-term workers went to the teahouse restaurant and talked about the success of Miss Liu's weight loss.
Jingyang is not big, and the matter spread in less than two days.
There are many female customers who are thinking about it, and after Yan Ruyu opens, they will go to see if it is as magical as rumored.
Although the small building is not big, there are a lot of beds in it, which can entertain nine guests at the same time, and Xue Su and Liansheng must be busy.
Xue Su knew that the money that should be spent must not be saved, so she bit her silver teeth and went to Ya Po with the money bag, ready to choose a few honest girls who can not only take care of the shop, but also entertain female guests.
Before going out, Xue Su didn't forget to put on her hat, although she is not a big beauty, but it is better to be careful when she goes to North Street, where people often haunt people, otherwise she will be targeted, and I am afraid that there will be no good fruit to eat.
Xue Su walked for half an hour before he arrived at the place.
Although this place is not as prosperous as the main street, it is very lively, Xue Su has never been here, and he can't help but look around, and after looking for a while, he found a woman surnamed Chen.
Chen Yapo is in her early forties, she has been doing this business for more than 20 years, her eyes are sharp, although Xue Su is inconspicuously dressed, and her face is covered by a thin veil, but just by virtue of her soft hands without a little calluse, she can guess that this is a big customer.
She greeted her with a smile on her face and asked, "Madame wants to buy a slave or a rough mother-in-law?" โ
Although Xue Su's cooking skills are good, she doesn't want to be stuffy in the kitchen every day, cold in winter and hot in summer.
"I'm tired of finding a mother-in-law who works well and cooks, and then chooses eight young girls."
As soon as she heard this, Chen Yapo smiled even more, and led Xue Su to the entrance of the alley, where many people stood there, including men and women, old and young, and when they saw Xue Su, many people's eyes lit up, and they said:
"Madam, buy me, I am diligent and capable, and I will never let you lose money!"
"Me! I know how to cook! โ
The noisy sound kept coming to his ears, and Xue Su couldn't help frowning, standing still in place, waiting for Chen Yapo to lead people out.
