Chapter 15 Fuxingju
Yang Changfa stretched out his hand from the quilt to hold his daughter-in-law's little hand, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled, and the cold room was warm.
Yang Changfa remembered that his daughter-in-law also hit the wall at that time, "Daughter-in-law, it doesn't matter if you want to see if you want it." ”
Xiao Yue has always been worried that Yang Changfa didn't take care of her injuries, so she remembered it, but she wore it thicker in winter, and now she doesn't feel it, "I'm fine, the cotton jacket I wear is thick." ”
Although Yang Changfa believed what his daughter-in-law said, he was afraid that his daughter-in-law would not tell him, so he took off Xiao Yue's clothes, and after taking a closer look, there was really nothing to do before he was relieved.
Yang Changfa was injured and could only lie on the kang, Xiao Yue went out of the house to work when it was his turn to cook, and usually brought the food into the house for dinner.
Yang Changfa was uncomfortable lying down for a long time, so Xiao Yue took out a quilt that she didn't use, folded it and let Yang Changfa lean on it on weekdays.
Xiao Yue herself also burns the kang hot all day long, staying on it to do needlework, she thinks about making spring clothes and summer clothes, who knows how much free time she will have next year.
It's been 3 days since I came back, and no one from the Yang family has come in to see Yang Changfa, Xiao Yue usually eats in her own room, so the current Yang family seems to have separated Yang Changfa and them.
If it could, Xiao Yue would have wanted to split up, but Old Man Yang would definitely not agree, here they all pay attention to whether their parents are separating the family, not to mention that at this time, Yang Changfa was injured and separated, and the people in the village would definitely say that the Yang family was not kind, harsh in the second room, and although the good-faced Old Man Yang didn't like them, he would still not split up now.
Xiao Yue got up every morning to boil some hot water to freshen up Yang Changfa, then helped him change the herbs, and then boiled medicine for him after eating, so that after 10 days, Xiao Yue wanted to go to the town again to let Dr. Li see how he recovered and whether he needed to apply medicine again.
This morning, she went home and called her father to help again, Xiao Yue felt that the fastest way to get money was to sell vegetables like in the novel she read, and she didn't plan to sell more, and she was not guilty, so she just sold two for the sake of prudence.
After all, they are just powerless ordinary people, and they will decide whether to sell other things after they get acquainted with the people in the restaurant and understand their character or something.
After going to the town, Dr. Li said that he had recovered well, and he only needed to apply the plaster later.
Xiao Yue told them that she wanted to buy something and asked Yang Changfa and Daddy Xiao to wait for her in the hospital.
There are still a lot of restaurants in the town, Xiao Yue chose a larger restaurant Fuxingju, there is no time to eat at this time, there are no guests in all the restaurants, only a few Xiaoer are cleaning up the table. Seeing Xiao Yue come in, Xiao Er greeted him, "Guest officer, how many are you!" ”
Xiao Yue felt that she was not looking for the wrong place, Xiao Er was well-trained, and she didn't disdain to greet her because she was dressed as a country woman, "Little Second Brother, I want to find your shopkeeper, the little woman has two recipes and wants to see your restaurant?" ”
"Okay, then you wait here, I'll ask you."
"Okay, thank you little brother."
After a while, a man about fifty years old came to Xiao Yue. "Below is the shopkeeper of Fuxingju, surnamed Gao, I heard that the little lady has a recipe to sell."
"Yes, the little woman figured it out herself."
"Could you please make it first and let us try it?"
"Of course, borrowing the kitchen for a while. But the little woman wants to trouble the shopkeeper, can there be no one next to the little woman while she cooks. ”
"Of course you can." After that, the shopkeeper Gao asked Xiao Yue to take him to the small kitchen.
It is true that the materials of the restaurant are very complete, Xiao Yue is ready to make Dongpo meat and braised chicken nuggets, and she bought star anise and ginger when she was just in the hospital.
Wash a piece of pork belly, blanch it after boiling the water in the pot under cold water, cut the blanched pork into cubes, put ginger slices and green onions on the crockpot, put the pork pieces with the skin down into the crockpot, add wine, sugar, and soy sauce to boil and simmer for an hour.
Let the meat stew Xiao Yue is ready to make braised chicken nuggets, cut the chicken into pieces of ginger and garlic into slices, blanch the chicken nuggets, put white sugar in the oil pan and fry until small bubbles appear, add ginger and garlic and star anise and fry a few times, then add the chicken nuggets and stir-fry, add water to cover the chicken nuggets, add salt and boil over low heat to collect the juice, and when the juice is only a little left at the bottom of the pot, it can be out of the pot.
The braised chicken nuggets are ready, the pork belly is also stewed, put the stewed pork belly skin up in a large bowl and pour the soup in the crockpot, if it takes time to steam a stick of incense.
Xiao Yue served the two dishes to Shopkeeper Gao, "Shopkeeper Gao, please try it, this is Dongpo meat, this is braised chicken nuggets." ”
When the shopkeeper didn't eat it, he smelled a fragrance and swallowed his saliva involuntarily, and his eyes lit up after tasting it.
Dongpo meat juice is thick and tender, crispy and not greasy, and the braised chicken nuggets are red and bright in color, soft and fragrant.
The shopkeeper is very glad in his heart, he did not look down on the woman in front of him, although the owner is strict with the management of the restaurant, and does not allow the phenomenon of chasing customers and bullying people, but he is the shopkeeper anyway, and only entertains distinguished guests on weekdays.
When he saw the confident appearance of the woman in front of him, with years of experience, he believed that she would surprise him, and he was not disappointed.
"I don't know how the little lady plans to sell the recipes for these two dishes." The shopkeeper Gao was satisfied, but his face was still not revealed.
"The shopkeeper is satisfied with these two dishes." Xiao Yue saw the appearance of the shopkeeper Gao and understood that he wanted to lower the price.
"Since the little lady came to our restaurant to cooperate with us, let's get straight to the point, I will pay 40 taels to buy these two dishes." Shopkeeper Gao saw Xiao Yue's reaction and understood that she knew what she was thinking, so he simply said it.
"50 taels, the shopkeeper Gao I came directly to your restaurant, if we cooperate happily this time, if the little woman still has a recipe in the future, she will definitely choose your restaurant." Xiao Yue thought in her heart, 50 taels should be okay.
Sure enough, the shopkeeper Gao heard Xiao Yue say that there would be a recipe for vegetables in the future, and thought about it for a while, 10 taels of silver is nothing for the restaurant, so he agreed, "Okay, 50 taels is 50 taels, he has good things for the little lady, but he must come to our Fuxing Building first." ”
"Of course."
Xiao Yue dictated the recipe for cooking, and the shopkeeper Gao wrote it by himself, and Xiao Yue, who was illiterate, did not dare to expose his literacy, and the shopkeeper Gao wrote it himself for fear that the recipe would be leaked.
After finishing it, the shopkeeper Gao gave Xiao Yue 4 ingots and 10 taels of silver, and the remaining 10 taels were exchanged for loose silver for her.
Xiao Yue took the silver and thanked the shopkeeper Gao, and hurried to the medical hall, it had been almost an hour since he came out, and he was afraid that Yang Changfa would hurry over if he was in a hurry.
Sure enough, when he arrived at the hospital, Father Xiao looked at the door, and saw Xiao Yue's figure first said to Yang Changfa, and then shouted Xiao Yue, "Yue'er, where have you been, for so long." ”
"Dad, I went shopping, but I didn't get it."
"If you don't buy it, forget it, let's go back,"
"yes, got it." Xiao Yue walked into the hospital and saw Yang Changfa's worried look, touched his head and comforted: "I'm fine, let's go home."
Yang Changfa nodded, Xiao Yue and Daddy Xiao got Yang Changfa on the ox cart, Xiao Yue went into the hospital and bought aster, sand kernels, nutmeg, angelica, etc., she was going to make thirteen spices and cook anything.
It's just that I didn't find the peppercorns, so I could only go into the mountain to see if there was any, so I asked the medical hall to help grind it into powder and pack it separately, and I bought some without grinding powder.
Xiao Yue came out with something, and Yang Changfa asked her nervously, "Daughter-in-law, where are you uncomfortable?"
"I'm fine, I'm useful for these things."
"Oh, that's good, you must tell me if you are not feeling well." Xiao Yue agreed, passing by the meat stall
Xiao Yue bought 3 catties of meat and 4 pig's trotters, and now the weather is cold and can be put for a longer time, and she also bought all the big bones in the meat stall.
Xiao Yue bought another 21 buns, and when she went back, Daddy Xiao blamed her for spending money indiscriminately.
Yang Changfa helped her speak, "Dad, it's okay." Daddy Xiao didn't say anything when he saw that Yang Changfa didn't say anything.
