The hot sale of roast chicken has also led to the increase in the number of chicken farmers in the villages around Tanggu Town. Let's take Xiaocao's neighbor Zhou's family as an example, her family raised one or two hundred chickens, and they didn't sell very well during the Chinese New Year, so she was worried that Fang's family couldn't eat and sleep.

Unexpectedly, Zhen Yulou launched the popular dish of roast chicken, and the number of hemp chicken needs to increase day by day. The price of harvested chickens is also nearly one-third more than usual. In this way, the Fang family's chickens are not worried about selling at all. No, hundreds of chicks were hatched in the spring, and they went around buying chicken chicks. I heard Zhou Shan say that their family is going to raise four or five hundred chickens this year, all of which will be supplied to Zhenyulou!

Speaking of the Zhou family, it is still the blessing of the Yu family! Zhenyulou bought vegetables from the Yu family, and also followed the example of the Yao family, and sent a carriage to transport it every day. Zhenyulou bought a lot of vegetables, and the Yu family couldn't be busy, so the Fang family brought two daughters to help.

The purchase money of Zhenyulou is a lot, and the roast chicken in the restaurant is selling well, and another guy who is responsible for collecting chickens has run all over the surrounding villages, and his legs are thin.

Yu Xiaocao took the opportunity to push the Zhou family out: "The Zhou family's aunt has raised hundreds of chickens!" Little Brother Duo, when you buy vegetables later, you even take the chicken back! ”

Whose family doesn't collect chickens? With the current popularity of roast chicken, one or two hundred chickens will only be sold in a few days! Of course, Qian Xiaoduo was willing to give Xiaocao this favor, and immediately made a decision, and the next day he took someone to pull back most of the chickens raised by the Zhou family!

Mao, the neighbor on the other side of the Yu family, was so envious that his eyes were red. She didn't know where she learned that Yu Xiaocao came up with the recipe for roast chicken in Zhenyulou, and one night, she came to the door with two fat ducks and a basket of duck eggs.

"Yo! Brother Haihai still has this craft! As soon as Mao entered the courtyard gate, he saw Yu Hai weaving bamboo baskets with the faint light of the Qi Death Wind Lamp.

Yu Hai skillfully weaved the bamboo strips together, looked up and saw the Mao family when he heard the sound, stopped the work in his hand, and greeted with a smile: "It's the sister-in-law of the Qian family, sit in the house quickly." Mu Yun, sister-in-law Qian is here......"

"Brother Dahai, is Xiaocao at home?" Mao glanced at the main house, only to see Liu put down the clothes he was sewing in his hand and walked out of the house, so he asked.

Yu Hai nodded and said, "It's here!" It's in the East Room. Sister-in-law of the Qian family, do you have something to do with Xiaocao? I'll call you! ”

"No, no! I'll go to the east to find her...... These two ducks, which you have raised at home, you take them and eat them. Mao looked around and simply brought the ducks and eggs into the Yu family's kitchen.

Yu Hai raised his eyebrows in surprise: This Mao family has always been a master who must compete with each other, and no one wants to take a child out of her hands. Of course, she rarely takes advantage of others, although sometimes she speaks a little ugly, but she is also a person who can be fellowshipped. Why was he so generous today and sent a gift to his family?

Liu Shi hurriedly stepped forward to excuse himself: "Sister-in-law Qian, it's not easy for you to raise these ducks, we can't ask for them!" ”

"Home-raised ducks aren't worth a lot of money. You see, when your family moved here, our family was busy, and we didn't come to warm your house. We live close together, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and we will be behind when we go back and forth. Besides, your family is studying in the same academy as our Qian Wen, and it is as good as two brothers. What is the point of carrying a duck for a child to eat? Mao's mouth is really sharp, and he talks like pouring beans without pause.

Liu picked up the duck that Mao had put down again, and while stuffing it into her hand, he said, "Sister-in-law! Your family is not rich, these ducks and duck eggs, let's keep you to sell them! ”

Speaking of selling ducks, Mao's face was full of gloomy clouds, and he sighed deeply and said: "Don't hide it from my younger brothers and sisters, a heavy snowfall in winter has also caused our ducks to be unsalable." The ducks that have been raised for almost a year have to be fed up, not to mention the hard work, but also the food. If you can't sell it, you'll lose a lot. Wen'er's shackles, what do you owe for half a year...... There are also these duck eggs, which the people in the city don't like to eat very much, so they can only watch them spoil. ”

Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and Liu expressed deep sympathy when she heard it, but she could only comfort Mao with pale words.

"Brother and sister, I heard about the method of making roast chicken in Zhenyulou, or did you teach them at home? The chef of the restaurant came to your home to learn in person. Moreover, the chickens raised by the Zhou family were also sold to Zhenyulou with the bridge you helped build, isn't that the case? Mao's eyes looked at Liu fixedly, full of expectation.

Liu Shi glanced at his man hesitantly, not knowing what the purpose of this unprofitable Mao asked this.

Yu Hai walked over slowly, lowered his voice and said, "Don't hide it from your sister-in-law!" This recipe for making roast chicken was indeed thought up by my Cao'er. No matter where my sister-in-law got the news, please don't tell my sister-in-law about it. ”

Mao Shi showed a clear expression, and also lowered his voice and said, "Brother Dahai, don't worry." Your sister-in-law, I'm not a big mouth! It's just that I don't understand, there is such a good recipe, why don't you do your own roast chicken business, and cheapen Zhenyulou? ”

Yu Hai thought for a while and said, "It's not a day or two to do business with Zhenyulou. Zhen Yulou has less Wednesdays, and takes care of us very much on weekdays. As for the roast chicken business, we are short of manpower, and we are afraid of bringing disaster to our family. So, why don't you sell the recipe! ”

The Yu family is just a flat-headed common people, and they have no power or power. Judging from the current popularity of roast chicken, if it is done by the Yu family, I am afraid that it will attract unscrupulous people to seek their recipes. When the time comes, not only will the prescription not be saved, but it will not be impossible for the family to be ruined if it encounters a ruthless one.

Mao also figured out the reasoning, nodded thoughtfully, and couldn't help but ask after a while: "Is the price given by your Fang Zizhen Mansion appropriate?" Don't be fooled! ”

Of course, Yu Hai would not be stupid enough to reveal his family background to others, so he only said vaguely: "The young owner of Zhenyulou is a real person, and the price given is quite reasonable......

Mao also realized that it was not appropriate for him to ask this, and hurriedly said apologetically: "Look at my mouth, why do you inquire about everything!" By the way, Xiaocao hasn't slept yet, has he? I'm looking for her for something. ”

"No! Shi Xiumu is at home, and his brothers and sisters are following him to read and write! "My little girl said that if the business is big in the future, you have to buy and bookkeep and sign a contract or something, and it is absolutely impossible to know how to read and write. So let everyone in the family, including the husband and wife, also follow the literacy.

Mao followed behind Yu Hai and his wife, went in the direction of Dongjian, and said, "Your child really loves to learn. Our family's Qian Wu will be stumbling as soon as he can read and write. I've seen it through, he's not a good read. In the future, let alone entering Rongxuan Academy, even if it is an ordinary school in the town, it will be difficult to pass the exam! ”

"Wuzi is still young, and he is not determined! It will be fine in the future!! Ryu comforted her as he pushed open the door to the east room. Children are writing and drawing on the table with their hands dipped in water under oil lamps.

Seeing this, Liu Shi said angrily: "Didn't I buy you paper and pens to practice calligraphy?" Why not? ”

Xiaolian raised her head, smiled at her, and said, "Doesn't paper and pen have money to buy?" We thought we'd wait until we were done with the handwriting and then practice it on paper! Mother, when you gave birth to Xiaocao, did you eccentrically give birth to all the advantages on her? She was born to hit us! ”

"What's going on? Cao'er bullied her sister? Liu Shi had a thick smile on his face, his eyes glared at Xiaocao, and asked.

Yu Xiaocao pouted, with a look of grievance on her face: "I don't have it!" Mother, you have wronged me. ”

Yu Hang was already able to sit up at this time, he was holding a book and trying to recognize the words on it. Seeing this, he smiled and said, "Mother, Xiaolian blames you for giving birth to your little sister too smart, it's unforgettable." It's like we're stupid. ”

"Am I clever and blame me?" Yu Xiaocao felt that she was being excluded, blinking her big eyes and looking at her mother pitifully, begging to be touched and comforted.

"Brother and sister, your children have such a good relationship! Unlike the three of us, the eldest one is fine, and he has read some books and is sensible. Takeko and her sister beat Jiwa wolves all day long, it's a real headache! "Mao's is begging for others, not sparing his praise, and desperately throwing out money as if he wanted it.

"Hello aunt!" "Why is my aunt here?" "Auntie, sit down on the kang quickly." A few children greeted each other.

"No need to get up. Xiaosha, your injuries look much better! My aunt brought you two ducks and a basket of duck eggs, so I could make up for it. "Mao is quite good at being a person.

Yu Hang had a warm smile on his face, and said obediently: "Thank you, auntie, you have bothered." ”

Yu Hai said to Xiaocao: "Cao'er, your Qian family's aunt said that she had something to do with you......

"Auntie, what's the matter?" Yu Xiaocao was also a little puzzled, today the sun came out in the west, and the Mao family actually gave a gift to their family, and it was not three stars or two o'clock, two ducks and a basket of duck eggs, it was really bleeding. It turns out that there is nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace!

Mao looked at the other people in the room, and seemed a little embarrassed to say anything. Xiaocao got off the kang with understanding, took her to the yard, and said softly: "If there is anything I can help with, you can just say it, auntie!" ”

Mao's said that his ducks were unsalable, and Kaichun's eldest son couldn't afford to pay the bundles, and then said with a smile: "Look, can you use ducks as raw materials to figure out a good dish!" No matter how bad it is...... You can also use duck eggs as an ingredient! Best...... It's best to be able to look at the food ...... in Zhen Yulou."

In the dark, Mao's face is hot, and she really doesn't often do things like begging people. Especially since the other party is still a child less than ten years old.

Yu Xiaocao's mind suddenly appeared a series of dishes such as salted duck, osmanthus duck, pipa duck, sauce duck, and roast duck in the hanging oven. Duck eggs are also easy to do, made into Songhua eggs, preserved egg tofu, preserved egg lean porridge are all fine in the cuisine.

However, she didn't promise it, just promised to give it a try, and explained that it might not be successful.
