"This little friend, when he learned that Humble Jing had a birthday today, cooked roast chicken and roast duck with his own hands, and added vegetables to us. It is said that a very chic kotoshi peach was prepared for us to enjoy as a dessert. ”

While he was talking, the housekeeper came in with a group of people from the house, carrying roast duck and roast chicken. The rich fragrance instantly permeated the entire courtyard. Yu Xiaocao specially prepared more, and after each table was served roast duck and roast chicken, there were a few left!

The roast duck and roast chicken, apparently freshly out of the pan, were steaming hot. The freshly roasted roast duck has crispy skin, tender meat, and a better taste! The roasted chicken skin is fragrant and the meat is tender, the bones are crispy and soft, and it melts in the mouth, conquering everyone's taste buds. At the banquet table of both male and female guests, these two dishes must be the first to bottom.

The meal was almost finished, and the housekeeper brought someone to offer a longevity peach. Shou Tao is lifelike and looks very attractive. Cherry wore her newly made pink clothes, stood in front of the prefect's wife, smiled like a flower, and said crisply: "Our young lady learned that Mrs. has a birthday today, and made a longevity peach with her own hands, I wish Mrs. Xianfu eternal enjoyment, and longevity than Nanshan!" ”

"Yo, who is this girl, she looks so handsome and really spiritual! How can I see, this girl is a little familiar? "The roast duck and roast chicken just now made the prefect's wife have more face in front of her girlfriends and relatives and friends. This fresh longevity peach adds a lot of color to her birthday banquet. Happily, he praised the cherry.

Cherry advanced and retreated in moderation, and her smile was just right: "Thank you Madame, the slave is the girl in General Zhaoyong's mansion, and now she is serving our girl!" ”

The girl in General Zhaoyong's mansion? The righteous daughter recognized by General Fang? Mrs. Prefect was a little surprised in her heart, when General Fang's eldest son was one year old, she was also invited. The most outstanding thing about Fangfu's first birthday banquet is the last dessert, which is more than one person high and has several layers. Not only is the shape chic and beautiful, but the taste is also a must. There are so many time-honored dim sum shops in Beijing, but none of them can make such a delicious taste.

It's a pity that there are many people and few cakes, and one person only gets a small piece, and the prefect's wife has not had time to taste the taste, so it is gone. It is said that this cake was made by General Fang's righteous daughter. The master of the most famous pastry shop in Daohua Village, the most famous in the capital, heard about the cream cake and personally went to the general's mansion to ask to see General Fang's righteous daughter, but unfortunately the family has left the capital and there is no trace!

When it comes to the pastries of Daohua Village, everyone in Beijing knows about it. It is a time-honored pastry, it is said that the master is the descendant of the imperial pastry master of the previous dynasty, when the emperor was young, he liked to go out of the palace and buy pastries to eat in Daohua Village. The pastries of Daohua Village are no less popular than the dishes of Zhenyulou.

The master chef of Daohua Village has a strange personality, and there are many famous nobles in Beijing who order pastries from him. Whether he takes it or not depends on his mood, and people who have no eyes, even if he holds a daughter, he doesn't take a second look. However, he registered in front of the emperor, and every month the general manager of Su would personally go out of the palace to purchase pastries for the emperor, so even a high-ranking official who was extremely popular did not dare to do anything to him!

He actually went to visit the little girl who could make cakes in person, which shows that this righteous daughter of General Fang has merits in making pastries.

The big girl who offered Shou Tao in front of her claimed to be the girl of General Fang's righteous daughter, so does it mean that these Shou Taos were made by the pastry wizard who was also quite respected by the master of Daoxiang Village? The prefect's heart is full of anticipation!

"Your young lady has bothered, and I will definitely thank her in person another day!" The prefect asked the personal girl to reward the cherry with a solid silver bracelet. Cherry took it, said a few auspicious words, and took her leave.

One by one, the peach cakes were distributed to each table. The prefect's wife asked her to get a knife, and personally divided the peach cake on her table into small pieces and distributed them to the ladies and ladies, with orange yellow peaches and red strawberries in it, making the cake more layered.

"It's delicious! I've never eaten such a delicious pastry since I've grown so big! The daughter of the Tongzhi family is relatively simple, and after tasting it, she can't wait to express her feelings and admire it from the bottom of her heart.

"The palate is creamy, melts in your mouth, and the fruit inside is even more brilliant. Even Daoxiang Village in Beijing may not be able to make such delicious pastries! "Mrs. Tongju was born in the Taifu Mansion, although she is only a concubine, and her knowledge is not something that ordinary women can match. She said so, which shows that this peach cake does have merit.

Listening to the ladies and ladies praising each other, the prefect's wife felt that her face was quite bright. Unexpectedly, the husband looked at the face of the prince of the county, and the shop that was half sold and half given away was actually bought by the righteous daughter of General Zhaoyong. Yu Ji braised vegetable shop? That's right! At the first birthday banquet, Mrs. Fang introduced her righteous daughter, who was surnamed Yu. Why did she only think about it now?

Mrs. Prefect couldn't help but share with the ladies and ladies that when she attended the first birthday banquet of General Zhaoyong's son, the birthday cake she tasted, no matter the shape and taste, was made by one person. Mrs. Tongju also followed suit, saying that General Fang's righteous daughter is not only a must-have for making pastries, but also quite proficient in medical skills. The little prince of the queen's mother was seriously ill, and it was this woman who rescued her. The medicinal diet she made conditioned Princess Jing's body......

There are only a few screens between the male and female guests. Listening to the "gossip" from the female guest, each has its own careful thoughts in their hearts. can make the queen mother and Princess Jing into the eyes, this person is absolutely extraordinary, you can only make friends and not offend!

In the next few days, Yu Xiaocao would always receive some greetings or invitations inexplicably, except for the prefect's wife, she didn't have any intersections, let alone acquaintances. After dealing with cherries and willows a few times, it became even more inexplicable - why did these official wives and ladies and wealthy businessmen's relatives go up to the pole to make friends with her? She was just a peasant girl who ate by her craft.

After a few times, Yu Xiaocao was overwhelmed. Fortunately, after the Huang Da Hammer family, both the back hall and the store in the store are gradually on the track. After some experience, Huang Xiaomei can also support the business of the pickle shop on her own. Yu Xiaocao took the two big girls and returned to Dongshan Village.

Since the last time she was hit by the cherry, Huang Xiaomei has practiced her mental arithmetic skills, and now she can quickly tell the amount of money that the guest needs to pay almost without an abacus. Cherry helped keep an eye on it for a few days and found that Huang Xiaomei had been able to make zero mistakes.

Cherry and Xiaomei can be said to be unacquainted without fighting, and the two have become good sisters who have nothing to say. Cherry saw that Xiaomei had almost no clothes that she could get her hands on, except for the two clothes that Miss Na Hui bought when she first entered the store. So he gave her a few clothes he made in the house last year.

Mrs. Fang treats her subordinates more generously, and adds two sets of clothes to the girls and mothers-in-law every season. Especially the big girls, they often follow the master's side, representing the master's face, no matter from the fabric or the style and color, most people in Beijing can get their hands on it.

When Cherry first came, Xiaomei thought she was the daughter of Fucheng! Each of her last year's clothes was at least eighty percent new, and it was not cheaper to give it away. Xiaomei was very happy, and said that she hadn't worn such beautiful clothes when she was so big!

In order to avoid those inexplicable official wives and young ladies, Yu Xiaocao went back to Dongshan Village to live for a while. Winter came without warning.

In the early winter, a heavy snow stained the mountains and fields, and the elderly and children, who were a little weaker, fell ill unexpectedly. Yu Xiaocao became busy.

Since Dr. You found his nephew and lived in Dongshan Village for a while, he decided to return to his roots and said goodbye to the villagers in Dongshan Village, and left. Yu Xiaocao, who is the "descendant disciple" of Dr. You, has become the only person in Dongshan Village who understands medical skills.

However, at this time, the people's families are not very well-off, especially those who have just experienced a disaster year, and those who have minor illnesses and disasters do not go to the doctor, and they will pass with a shoulder. I couldn't resist it, so I borrowed a carriage and sent it to the town's medical center. Usually, few people think about Yu Xiaocao's medical skills.

This time, the weather suddenly changed, and the old man also fell for it. Fever, headache, malaise, cough almost out of breath. At first, he thought that he would be fine if he suffered a little cold and drank some ginger soup to sweat. Who knew that in two days, I wouldn't be able to get out of bed.

Yu Xiaocao picked up several herbs for treating wind and cold from his small medicine box, fried them in spirit stone water, and gave them to his grandfather to drink, and soon his symptoms were alleviated. Three days passed, and the old man went to the foot of the mountain to collect firewood. Lao Yutou is an idle man, and he is uncomfortable if he is not allowed to work. When winter came, the weather suddenly turned cold, and the family's firewood reserves were insufficient, so he carried a basket every day to the foot of the West Mountain to pick up firewood.

When walking in the evening, Lao Yutou turned into his eldest brother's house. As soon as I entered the door, I smelled the strong smell of the decoction. When asked, I learned that his eldest brother Yu Lichun was not spared in the cold snap, and the symptoms were similar to him, and he drank the medicine for five days, but there was still not much improvement.

There is also the youngest daughter of Yu Jiang's family, who is just over a year old, who also has a fever. Pity such a little girl, who is poured several bowls of bitter medicine every day, crying so much that her voice is hoarse. Many times, even if the medicine is poured down, the little girl will vomit out at all, the whole person is wilted, and when she is asleep, she is more awake and less awake, and the doctors invited by the town shake their heads and say that they are not optimistic.

took care of the old and the young, Yu Jiang lost a lot of weight in less than a week. In the past two years, he has made a lot of money with his second brother, and he doesn't feel sorry for the silver, at the moment when his father and youngest daughter became ill, he went to the town to invite a doctor to come over, and grabbed a dozen taels of silver medicine before and after, but it still didn't improve.

Yu Jiang's eldest sister got the news and came to visit her father, and after asking about the symptoms, her tears came down immediately, saying that the old Han in their village was not as old as her father, and she also had a continuous high fever, and she couldn't get out of bed because she was tired. His children are also filial, they invited a doctor to take medicine, and the money was spent on many young and old, but the person was eventually gone. Looking at her father with a withered face, Sister Yu Jiang couldn't help crying.
