Seeing that hand clearly, he looked at Xia Jin's face without a trace.

Xia Jin was such a keen person that he immediately felt Luo Qian's gaze. She secretly shouted "here" in her heart, and quietly poured two cups of tea, one cup was placed in front of Luo Qian, and the other cup was held in her hand, and she took a sip gently, then raised her eyes and looked at Luo Qian.

She waited for Luo Qian to speak.

As soon as they met, she knew that Luo Qian was looking at her. She specially brought Luo Qian to this place, just to let Luo Qian open the skylight and say something. Just now, she also deliberately showed her hand. She knew that from her face, Luo Qian couldn't tell whether she was Xia Qi or Xia Jin, she could only look at her hands.

I didn't want Xia Jin to be ready, but Luo Qian looked away, reached out and picked up a piece of dim sum on the table, and asked, "What is this dim sum called?" ”

Xia Jin glanced at him depressedly and said, "Chiffon cake." ”

"Chiffon cake?" Luo Qian's brows furrowed slightly. The name was strange and incomprehensible to him.

But he didn't ask, picked up the cake and took a bite, the soft and smooth texture and the unique sweetness of the cake immediately filled his mouth. He paused suddenly, raised his eyes, glanced at Xia Jin in surprise, and then looked at the cake in his hand and asked, "What is this made of?" ”

"Noodles, rice, eggs, water, oil, and sugar." Xia Jin said.

"The dough at home is also made of these things, but it tastes completely different from this one." Luo Qian looked at the cake in his hand and said.

Xia Jin was a little surprised. In ancient times, gentlemen were far away from cooking. She didn't expect Luo Qian to know what the dough was made of.

"It's different." She said.

Luo Qian nodded, finished the small cake in his hand, and looked at another place: "What is this?" ”

"It's called an egg tart. It's also made from the things I just mentioned. ”

Luo Qian actually had breakfast not long ago, and he wasn't hungry at all, but looking at the yellow egg tart, he couldn't help it, picked up one and tasted it.

Seeing Luo Qian finish eating the egg tart, Xia Jin couldn't help it, and pushed a bamboo cup full of things in front of Luo Qian. "You try this." ”

As she spoke, she took one of her own. I scooped it with a small bamboo spoon and ate it.

Luo Qian had just eaten two dry things, and he was about to stop eating. can see that Xia Jin pushed him a small black cube soaked in milky white water, sprinkled with some red beans on it, and saw Xia Jin eating sweetly. I couldn't help but eat it again.

While eating, I didn't forget to ask, "What is this?" ”

"This is called burning fairy grass, and it is made of fairy grass that I asked people to find in the mountains to the south. This thing beautifies, nourishes the mind, lowers blood pressure, and clears internal heat. Eating it cold in the summer and hot in the winter is my favorite food. ”

Luo Qian endured and endured, but still couldn't help asking, "How do you know how to make so many dim sum?" ”

For this question, Xia Jin has already prepared an answer: "My master told me." ”

The two of them chatted and ate at the same time. Unconsciously, the two of them finished eating the burnt fairy grass, and each ate a ginger and milk. That's when he stopped.

Luo Qian put the spoon down, took the wet handkerchief handed over by Leshui and wiped his mouth and hands, and then handed the handkerchief back. asked Xia Jin: "That Zhiwei Zhai, are you going to sell these ten kinds of dim sum?" ”

"Of course not." Xia Jin shook his head, "I'm going to launch two new products every month. This will keep people coming back and forth. ”

"Two per month?" Luo Qian's eyes flashed with surprise when he looked at Xia Jin, and he asked, "How long can it last?" ”

Xia Jin thought for a while: "About a year or two." ”

Not to mention the Chinese dim sum she had eaten, in the Western pastries. Cakes alone can make countless tricks. In addition to cakes, there are also breads, pies, and biscuits. Different fillings, creams, various flavors of jams, nuts, there are so many ways to play. Just look at the cake shop with a wide variety of pastries.

So, she didn't worry about the lack of new products at all.

Luo Qian looked at her, thought for a moment, and said, "These dim sum you make are delicious and novel, and there are many varieties. It's a pity that it is only sold in this place. I'll lend you another hundred taels of silver, and you may open a bigger shop near where we live." ”

This time, it was Xia Jin's turn to be surprised.

She didn't expect Luo Qian to know her woman's identity, not only did she not break off her friendship, but she also continued to do business with her.

He's ...... Not ready to reveal her identity as a woman?

For this phenomenon, Xia Jin naturally couldn't ask for it. She smiled at Luo Qian and nodded, "Okay." For the next shop, let's split the account fifty-fifty. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about our partnership in business. ”

Luo Qian waved his hand and said, "No." and the money shall be as if I had lent it to you. When you have money, pay me back. ”

"That'll do fine." Xia Jin was not reluctant. She knew that Luo Qian was not short of money, and that the scholars of this era always had a rejection of businessmen.

Xia Jin's personality is the kind of "if you treat me well, I will treat you better; If you treat me badly, I will treat you even worse". Luo Qian helped her a lot, and now she doesn't care about her identity as a woman, Xia Jin is very grateful, and decides to repay the favor and help Luo Qian.

She thought about it and asked Luo Qian: "Is Brother Luo sure to be admitted to the lifting of people this year?" ”

Luo Qian shook his head, his expression a little stunned: "I'm not sure." There are too many talents referenced by Jiangnan. Among them, there are many well-known talents. The imperial examination of the court is not only to read the article, but also to pay more attention to personal reputation and ability. If you are talented and famous, you will have a lot of face in the imperial examination. ”

Xia Jin thought for a while and said, "If you want to be famous, I have an idea." ”

"Oh?" Luo Qian looked at her in surprise, "You say." ”

"It's just a matter of writing a few articles and writing two poems, right? Being respected by local readers, and even becoming the leader of local readers, this kind of person should be a well-deserved talent. ”

"That's right." Luo Qian nodded. He felt that he couldn't understand Xia Jin anymore.

Yesterday, he deliberately talked to Xia Qishen about this topic. He found that Xia Qi was a young man who was immersed in reading, his eyes were only staring at the books in his hand and the people and things around him, and he had no unique views on current affairs.

But I don't want my sister who should have grown up in the boudoir at the same age as him to pay attention to these, and she knows her very well.

Therefore, if Brother Luo can take advantage of his identity to compile a collection of articles written by local talents and scholars over the years, and then ask for advice and famous Confucians to make some comments, this will be of great help to local children and talents. In this way, people will appreciate you. Brother Luo will make a few more good articles and host a few poetry meetings, which is the name, and it will naturally be there. ”

Luo Qian frowned and pondered, thinking about the feasibility of what Xia Jin said. Gradually, his eyes slowly lit up.

"That's a really good idea." He looked at Xia Jin appreciatively, looking very excited.

"In addition, there are more talents and people in the Linjiang City examination than in other places, and it is also very beneficial to Ling Zun's official reputation." Xia Jin continued.

Luo Qian's excited expression slowly dimmed. He was silent for a while, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said to Xia Jin: "Thank you Brother Qi for thinking about this for your brother." ”

Although Luo Weitao is eccentric, he also cares about his son, otherwise when he is sick, Luo Weitao will not run around to find a good doctor for him. This is fundamentally different from the old lady's attitude towards Xia Zhengqian.

So Luo Qian still has a deep admiration for his father. He practiced martial arts desperately in the past few years and studied hard, just to let his father look at him differently and let his father know that he was better than his brother.

But Luo Weitao's indifference to Mrs. Luo, his love for Aunt Zhang, and the ability of the two cousins are also very strong, which makes Luo Qian very powerless, which causes him to have complex feelings of love and hatred for his father.

Now that there is a chance for Luo Weitao to gain an official reputation, even if Luo Qian is a little cold to his father, he is very willing.

"Don't thank me. I came up with this idea out of selfishness. With the anthology made by Brother Luo, I am more confident in this year's children's exam. So, I should thank Brother Luo instead. Xia Jin said.

When she said this, she was also further testing Luo Qian to see if he really wanted to pretend not to know about her disguising herself as a man.

Luo Qian looked at her deeply, smiled, and didn't speak again.

Xia Jin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Now the way the two get along is no better, she doesn't want to get along with Luo Qian as a woman, it must be awkward to think about it.

After the matter was finished, Xia Jin still had to go to Zhiweizhai to see the situation, and Luo Qian was anxious to go back and summon people to implement the matter, the two chatted a few more words, drank a few sips of tea, and then got up and left.

As soon as Xia Jin walked to the door, she met Dong Yan and Dong Fang, she looked up at the sky, and found that before she knew it, it was noon.

"How's business going?" Xia Jin asked.

"Very good, the pastries that were shipped half an hour ago are almost sold out. I came over to urge Brother Yuan and them. ”

The so-called eldest brother Yuan is Yuan Meier's father, the husband of the middle-aged couple that Xia Jin bought. Because he is stable and honest, Xia Jin entrusted him as the supervisor of the things in the kitchen.

"They are tired all morning without breathing, and you can see how many of them are ready in the kitchen, and just ask them to carry them over, and you don't have to make new ones. If you don't sell enough, I'll say sorry to everyone, please be early tomorrow. ”

Xia Jin said, thinking in his heart how many more people to buy in order to prepare for the new store.

Dong Fang came over after Dong Yan. Seeing that Xia Jin seemed to be going out, she was about to speak, when suddenly someone hurriedly came in from outside the door and said to Xia Jin: "Master Xia, your family is sending people to look for you everywhere, saying that Mrs. Xuanping Hou took Miss Cen to your house." ”

"What?" Xia Jin screamed in surprise.

The person who came was Steward Yu, and he opened his mouth to say something, but Luo Qian came in from behind him and said to Xia Jin: "Let's go, I'll accompany you to have a look." (To be continued)
