Li Dali has been watching, Lin Shishi and the fat woman are both distinguished guests invited by the master, as a loyal Ding family member, of course he doesn't want the two to have a quarrel. He was very grateful to Qian Yu who opened his mouth to help. Now I heard that a little girl actually opened her mouth to ridicule him, and couldn't help but retort: "Who said it's useless, this kind of stone can burn lime, and the burned lime is wiped on the wall after passing through water, which is not only white and clean, but also insect-proof and crack-proof, and every household uses it!" "Ding's family has a lime kiln, and Ding Dali knows about this.

"You ......" Yan'er glared at Li Dali angrily, how could she not know the role of limestone, but if she wanted to take the opportunity to ridicule people, she could only say the weakness of this thing, and if she also said the advantages, it would become a compliment.

What she didn't notice was that after Qian Yu heard Li Dali's words, his eyes lit up, and he burned lime with limestone, and he immediately thought of a poem, and then recited: "Thousands of hammers are chiseled out of the deep mountains, and the fire burns as if you are idle." Don't be afraid of broken bones, you have to leave your innocence in the world. What do you think? ”

This is Yu Qian's lime chant, the poem praises lime, expressing the author's iron backbone and strong and unyielding, Qian Yu used it here, in addition to responding to the topic, but also countered Yan'er's words that he was "ugly and hard", which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Yan'er's face turned red, just now she ridiculed Qian Yu for not being able to compose poetry, but now she is naked in the face!

The most shocking thing is Lin Shishi, she is not like Yan'er who is young and has a limited understanding of poetry, Yan'er only thinks that Qian Yu's poems are not bad. But Lin Shishi is different, because as soon as she heard this poem, she knew that this poem was a classic, and it could definitely be passed down through the ages, and she couldn't write it herself.

What shocked her even more was Qian Yu's talent, to be able to make such a poem in such a short time, even if the poet immortal was reborn, it would not be an exaggeration, you must know that in addition to literary skills, poetry also depends on inspiration, and inspiration is hard to find. It's not that she didn't think that this poem was copied by Qian Yu, but she has been exposed to poetry since she was a child, but she has never heard of this poem.

Qian Yu saw that he casually brought out a small poem, so he let the little girl who was chattering stop her mouth. Lin Shishi, who seemed to be quiet and extremely proud in her bones, was also stunned, and she was proud in her heart.

Leaving some time for the second daughter to slowly digest her peerless talent, Qian Yu turned his head to look at the fat woman: "Are you not convinced?" Say your conditions, and like to convince people with virtue under the next. ”

The fat woman looked at Qian Yu as a lonely and defeated figure, and couldn't help but hum: "Xiao Langjun, it doesn't work to be able to make poems in front of the old lady, the old lady hates reading people the most in her life." ”

Qian Yu was puzzled: "Why?" ”

Fat Woman: "You scholars look like dogs, but each one is poorer than the other." Eating and drinking in the old lady's shop, not giving money after eating, not talking, and having to make poems to settle accounts. I'm bah, when the old lady is a girl in the yard, will she take that broken poem as a baby? ”

After speaking, he glanced at Lin Shishi with disdain, as if to say, just like you, a broken poem will be sent away, and you dare to fight with the old lady.

Lin Shishi was immersed in the lime chant and didn't pay attention to the fat woman's face, but Yan'er next to her was unwilling, and immediately stared back.

Qian Yu didn't expect the war to burn on him unconsciously, not to mention how depressed he was, his face turned dark: "Okay, since you are a cook, I have a few questions about cooking that I would like to ask." ”

Seeing the fat woman's casual question, Qian Yu said: "I like to eat chicken the most, called flower chicken, tube chicken, crispy chicken, white chopped chicken, and shredded chicken...... Then you know, why is the meat on the chicken butt better than the chicken thigh? The chef's highest praise is 'fresh', why is the word fresh on the left for fish and sheep on the right? Cooking never ends, but there is an end to the road of a chef, do you know what the highest level of a chef is? ”

Seeing the fat cook stunned under one question after another, Qian Yu was very proud in his heart, his questions seemed to contain culinary skills, but if he thought about it carefully, it was ethereal, and there was no standard answer at all. Without preparation, it will definitely confuse people, which is really the supreme magic weapon of lip service.

Not only the fat cook, but even Lin Shishi came back to her senses, staring at Qian Yu, her eyes were full of disbelief, she was also very proficient in cooking, and she was confident that she was no worse than the chef of Jingshi in some fields, but she found that she couldn't answer any of Qian Yu's questions.

The fat cook's eyes suddenly became more brilliant when she looked at Qian Yu, so that even her attitude changed, and all the resentment just now was replaced by a slight flattery now: "Xiao Langjun, you said that these old bodies don't know much, and the old body wants to ask you ...... questions."

Qian Yu immediately interrupted her, joking, this can't let her ask casually, otherwise she will definitely be exposed: "It's not impossible to ask me, but in the Ding Mansion for the past two days, you have to try your best to cooperate with me, and besides, I will only answer one ...... your question."

By this time it was late autumn, and most of the flowers had lost their color, leaving only the fragrance of chrysanthemum. Surrounded by chrysanthemums, several bright figures loomed, with crisp and sweet voices, it was He Sui, as well as Ding Xinru and the maid Xing'er that Qian Yu had seen.

He Sui took a thick stack of paper and said to Ding Xinru: "Miss, this time for your birthday, the house has purchased a total of 5,341 catties of pork, 2,278 catties of fish, and 10 carts of leeks...... A total of 3,648 taels of silver was spent, and some of the chicken I planned to buy was robbed in Sanlipo, so I stepped up to buy some of it, and it was barely enough......"

He Sui wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Ding Xinru: "Sister Sui, I'm relieved." Also, I said a long time ago not to call me Miss, and you are not a member of the Ding family, just call me Xinru. ”

He Sui shook his head: "That's not good, if it wasn't for the eldest lady to help him, he might ...... the grain, in He Sui's heart, the eldest lady will always be my benefactor, and He Sui can't repay him even if he is a cow or a horse, how can he mess up the title?" ”

Xing'er on the side smiled and said: "Sister Sui, you are the most detailed account I have ever seen, the steward of the Ding Mansion is far worse than you, you don't want to change your title, it is better to stay in the Ding family as a steward, how can it be better than you live a hard life in Yunxi Village!" ”

He Sui sighed: "Miss Xing'er, with the kindness of the eldest lady to me, I should have stayed in the mansion to serve, but my younger brother is young and needs to be taken care of, and when he settles down, I will definitely come to the Ding Mansion for the eldest lady to send." ”

"Then why don't you let Xiao Hegu come with you?" Xing'er just wanted to say this, but she stopped talking, she had said this more than once before, but at Xiaohegu's age, she could only be a housekeeper when she came to Dingfu, although Miss Heshou was heavy, she couldn't open the back door for her alone, this was the rule. However, Hesui loves her little brother very much, and she can suffer no matter how she suffers, and she will never let Xiao Hegu be a subordinate.

The topic couldn't go on anymore, Ding Xinru was silent for a while, and suddenly asked: "That person named Qian Yu, didn't he promise to come last night?" Where is he? ”

He Sui's face was a little embarrassed, although Qian Yu had agreed last night, he refused the request to live in the Ding family's guest room on the grounds that he was not used to living, and he had to come back this morning, and now he didn't know where to go. Even the grain that has always liked to stick to himself is unusual, and he follows him everywhere.

Xing'er knew about this, and said it briefly to Ding Xinru, and couldn't help but hum: "He can't get used to living in the Ding family, the shelf is really big." When others are invited by the young lady, who is not satisfied with gratitude, respectful and respectful? Who did he think he was, and he refused Miss in front of so many people, and he didn't know how to lift up. The young lady is kind-hearted, not only regardless of the previous suspicions, but also tried her best to invite repeatedly. If it were me, I would have let him go where he was cool. ”

Who knew that Ding Xinru didn't care: "This young man Qian can think of a way to solve the three problems in such a short time, even I can't do it." Although I don't know his origin, but judging by his words and deeds, he should be very knowledgeable, such a person is afraid that his identity is extraordinary, how could he agree to go to the Ding family to be a little steward, it was indeed my negligence before. ”

Xing'er couldn't help pouting: "Miss, if you want me to say that you still think too highly of him, although those three questions are difficult, they are all related to business, and the surname Qian can be answered, which can only show that he is quite proficient in business." I am a farmer and a businessman in the Dahua Dynasty, and the status of a businessman is the lowest, so let him come to our house to be a steward, I think he should be promoted! ”

After Xing'er said this, Ding Xinru was also a little shaken, and couldn't help but ask He Sui: "Sister Sui, can you tell me in detail about your rescue of Mr. Qian, and since he arrived at your house, is there anything special?" ”

He Sui knew that Ding Xinru wanted to find out about Qian Yu's origin, she asked Qian Yu about this, and he cleverly changed the topic every time, so she also knew nothing about Qian Yu, but when Miss Ding asked, she still said it carefully. Of course, her knowledge of Qian Yu was only before she came to Ding Mansion, and although Xiao Hegu told her about what happened later, the description was extremely simple, and she also knew nothing about it.

After listening to Hesui's narration, Xing'er couldn't help but sneer: "I'll just say, this guy has to have the ability, how can he be willing to drink gruel three times a day, and go to the mountains to chop wood?" It is estimated that I couldn't stand the hard life later, so I took advantage of your absence to sell your family's things. If Xiao Hegu hadn't been clever and followed him, he would have fled long ago. ”

He Sui only knew that Qian Yu and Xiao Hegu were selling things in Sanlipo, and as for what they were selling, she didn't know much about it, and she couldn't refute it.

It seems that good things and bad things are in one mouth, Ding Xinru saw that what Xing'er said was reasonable, and couldn't help but start to doubt her judgment.

At this moment, a maid hurriedly ran over: "Miss, no, Miss Shishi and Aunt Cai have quarreled." ”

"What?" Ding Xinru couldn't help but change her face, Lin Shishi was a distinguished guest invited by her father, and Aunt Cai was the most famous chef in Qingfeng County, these two people were the biggest confidence for Master Ding to hold this birthday banquet.

Since the death of the county lord of Qian'e, Master Ding has been in a slump, and Ding Xinru has tried his best to support this family, so in the eyes of the subordinates, what the young lady said is much better than the old man's words, and I can't help but have some conjectures in my heart. But the fact is that Ding Xinru never disobeys her father's words, and if Master Ding has any ideas, she will do her best to complete them. It's just that Master Ding doesn't love the director, which creates an illusion.

This birthday banquet is the only one that Master Ding has taken the initiative to ask for over the years, Ding Xinru attaches great importance to it, and even does not hesitate to suppress the thirteenth aunt who likes to be yang and yin, if something goes wrong, you can imagine how sad Daddy will be. Thinking of this, Miss Ding couldn't sit still any longer, and hurriedly walked towards the guest room in the front yard with Hesui and apricots.

In the guest room area of Dingfu, the fat aunt smiled like a flower...... Belch...... Fat Flower: "This little boy, the one you just said, that one is called Flower Chicken, is it eaten by Hanako?" ”

Qian Yu didn't expect her to ask like this, she couldn't help but sweat, what I said just now seems to be "Why is chicken butt meat better than chicken legs", right? Did I mention the name of the flower chicken? Belch...... It seems to be true, but I'm just borrowing a few dishes to set off the relationship between chicken butts and chicken legs, you're too crooked, aren't you? The ancients didn't bring this kind of play when they bought and returned pearls.

The fat aunt said: "Little boy, your questions are more profound than the other, even if you say it, I guess I don't understand, you just need to tell me how the flower chicken is made." ”

Listening to the tone of the fat aunt, it seems that he has never heard of this dish, although he has made a flower chicken, but he is not proficient, after all, he is a professional chef, it is better not to talk nonsense: "This is not within the scope of my question, so I refuse to answer." If you think about it again, it's not too late to ask me when you've thought about it. ”

He coughed lightly, ignoring the fat aunt, but turned his head to Lin Shishi: "Miss Lin, I know that you were here first, and the truth is also on your side, but this place has become a slaughterhouse, fishy everywhere, feces and urine are flowing, it must have a great impact on your rehearsal, why don't I accompany you to choose a new place with fresh air and beautiful environment?" ”

Lin Shishi stared at Qian Yu with a pair of watery eyes, originally with her temper, she would definitely not let her out, but now, she changed her mind: "Since Qian Gongzi spoke, the little girl naturally complied." Qian Gongzi knows so many musical instruments, and he is also very proficient in music, and the little girl you just said about the musical instrument happens to have a collection, although it is less than thirty percent, and it is not even a CD that can be used proficiently. ”

The sweat on Qian Yu's forehead flowed down suddenly, where is he proficient in what music? He has only seen pictures of those musical instruments on the Internet, and it would be good to be able to match the real thing with the name, and dare to talk about using it? It is true that it is very enjoyable to be able to talk about poetry and music with beautiful women, but at least you have to know poetry and music! He suddenly felt that it was a very simple thing to teach a fat woman to be a flower chicken.

So Qian Yu walked up to the fat woman: "This aunt, I know that there are four ways to call Huaji, but I rarely try, let me tell you about it, let's make progress and improve together." ”

As he spoke, he was about to pull the fat woman to find a clean place to teach her experience, but she was stopped by Lin Shishi: "This son, you promised to teach me to use a musical instrument first, and you can't go with her." ”

The fat woman was not happy: "Why, did Xiaolangjun promise you?" The old lady didn't hear it, shameless! ”

"You ......" Lin Shishi's chest fell together, she ignored the fat woman, and just turned to Qian Yu: "If you want to go with her, I won't leave here." ”

The fat woman was happy: "It's just right not to leave, who do you think is rare, little boy, to save your face, even if you don't tell your aunt about the practice of calling flower chickens, your aunt will move away immediately, and she will never threaten you with this!" She glanced at Lin Shishi with contempt in her eyes, as if to say: Xiaoxiao, fight with the old lady, you are still a little tender.

This is the first scene that Ding Xinru saw when she came here, she was a little confused because she didn't understand the situation, could it be that the two of them almost fought because of Qian Yu? That's, isn't it?

Xiao Hegu was counting the money and watching the play next to him, and suddenly saw the ears of Hesui behind Ding Xinru, and hurriedly handed over the copper coins in his hand: "Sister, give it, this is what Brother Qian divided with me, I can buy a lot of delicious food!" ”

The fat woman and Lin Shishi also saw Ding Xinru, the fat woman hurriedly saluted her, Lin Shishi just nodded, Miss Ding asked the fat woman with a smile: "Aunt Cai, I just heard the maid say that you and Miss Lin had a little unpleasant, I still don't believe it, I think with your mind, even if others do something that makes you unhappy, you don't care about it!" ”

Jia Ding Ding listened vigorously and couldn't help but pout secretly, open-minded? Aunt Cai's mind is not as good as her figure, in Qingfeng County, she is famous for her unreasonable troubles, other shops and restaurants, only to hand over the Feilong Gang a lot of management fees, so that there is no little ruffian harassment, she does not pay a child, no one dares to come to the door, typical people are afraid.

Qian Yu couldn't help but secretly admire Ding Xinru, although he hadn't heard of the legend of Aunt Cai, even if he looked at the words, he knew what kind of person he was. Ding Xinru spoke softly, but she was even killed, not only pointing out that the fat woman was wrong, but not making her disgusted, it was simply amazing.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Aunt Cai smiled, and there was some embarrassment in her smile: "Miss Ding is too awarded, just now the old body is wrong, I will move away." ”

As she spoke, she said to the guy next to her, "Hurry up, remember to clean up the ground, and I'll check it later." Mr. Qian, come on, let's go into the house and talk. ”

Lin Shishi was suddenly unhappy; "You can't take him away, let him follow me, I'll move away!"

Seeing such a situation, Ding Xinru's doubts deepened, Ding Dali observed his words and looks, and hurriedly reported to his young lady what had just happened. After Ding Xinru listened, although she couldn't see anything on the surface, the shock in her heart was indescribable. She invited Qian Yu to come to Dingfu, just thinking that he was quite talented in business, but that's all.

Now she suddenly realized that her judgment was completely wrong, this guy can still write poetry? Miss Ding is not a rude Aunt Cai, she knows what it means to be able to compose a poem in this society where "everything is inferior, only reading is high"? As for the quality of the poem, just look at Lin Shishi's expression.

After taking a deep look at Qian Yu, Ding Xinru smiled and said to Aunt Cai and Lin Shishi: "The two were invited by their father to prepare a birthday banquet for the little girl, and Xinru is grateful, but I have something to say, tomorrow is Xinru's birthday, and the two of them might as well work together to make the birthday banquet well." Don't worry, after tomorrow, if you want to find Qian Gongzi, the little woman will never stop you! ”

After listening to Ding Xinru's words, Qian Yu hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, tomorrow is my young lady's birthday, I still have a lot of things to do, and when the young lady's birthday banquet passes, this Cai ...... Auntie, I will teach you a lot of the four methods called flower chickens; Miss Lin, when the time comes, let's talk about poetry and music until dawn, and that's it. Now everyone is scattered, scattered! ”

said so, but what Qian Yu thought in his heart: Hmph, when the birthday banquet is over, I don't know where I am, if you can find me, I will believe in your evil! ”

Although Aunt Cai and Lin Shishi were reluctant, they knew that what Miss Ding said was reasonable, so they had to put this time aside for the time being and go their separate ways.
