After resigning from the Shen brothers and sisters, Gao Shiman took the two girls to walk around the market. When passing by a pharmacy, Gao Shiman walked in, the house was full of medicinal incense, and when the man saw someone coming in, he smiled and said, "What do you want to buy?" ”

Gao Shiman smiled, and was about to say that he would take a look casually, when suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and said, "Do you have Ejiao?" The guy nodded busily: "Yes, yes, you wait." ”

At this time, it is already October, and after a while it will be the winter solstice, and in the previous life, Gao Shiman will make Guyuan paste on the winter solstice, which is a blood tonic for the elderly and women.

After a while, the guy came over with a small bamboo strip and said, "Look at it." Gao Shiman picked it up and took a look, this ejiao is not like the square cut in later generations, it is an irregular palm-sized round cake, the color is very positive, shining with a black-brown luster, she picked it up and smelled it, there was a slight sweet taste.

"How many do you have? How to sell it" Gao Shiman looked up and asked the man.

"Ah...... Now there are four or five catties, 25 dollars a tael. "It's hard to suppress the excitement of this guy, this Ejiao is usually bought by people for one or two, mainly for medicinal purposes, and today this young lady seems to be a big customer.

She had already inquired clearly, at this time, the purchasing power of a penny was equivalent to three or four yuan in modern times, one tael of silver was a thousand yuan, almost 3-4000 yuan, and Gao Ke's monthly salary was almost four taels of silver, which was considered a high salary.

Gao Shiman bought five catties, bought some ingredients, and took the two girls back to the house.

In her previous life, she had low back pain, and it was useless to take medicine for a year in Western medicine, and then the old aunt next door wore less than her in winter, she couldn't help but ask to know that people eat this every year, she tried to eat a winter, not only the waist is much better, even menstruation is normal, and then she let her parents and sister eat, and my mother's problem of getting up three or four times at night in winter is gone, and my sister has actually healed Tongtong's gynecological disease after giving birth, so she regards Guyuan paste as a god-like tonic.

There is an old lady in the Shen Mansion, and there is a Mrs. Shen who is sick in bed, she plans to send this Guyuan paste tomorrow, and it is a good thing that cannot be bought outside.

The master and servant tossed until dark, and then steamed the Guyuan paste and filled it into cans, Gao Shiman looked at the two girls and said: "You have to keep it secret, don't tell people that this thing is made of Ejiao, just the three of us know, if someone asks, it is the ancient recipe I read in the book, you don't know anything." ”

"Madame, don't you ask?" Ling'er questioned.

"Madame won't ask, no matter who asks, you all have to ask three questions, do you hear?"

As soon as the two saw that Gao Shiman was so serious, they immediately nodded and agreed.

If these two girls didn't listen to her and told her about it, then Gao Shiman would never stay with them, and this time it would be a test.

Gao Shiman thought about it seriously, and said to them: "Morality can often make up for the defects of wisdom, but wisdom can never make up for the gap in morality, no matter how I used to treat you, now I don't have high requirements for the people around me, whether it's simple or stupid, as long as you're loyal to me, you're perfect; Otherwise, climb another branch! ”

Ling'er and Ping'er were stunned when they heard this, seeing Gao Shiman looking at them directly, the two of them hurriedly said, "Yes, Miss." ”

Gao Shiman was very satisfied with the performance of the two girls, changed his smile and said, "You have worked hard today, I will personally go to the kitchen to get some delicious food to treat you." After speaking, he brought a jar of Guyuan paste and went to Zheng Jilan's yard.

Gao Mansion also had a small kitchen in the courtyard of Zheng Jilan and Zheng Jilan before, and later after the two women surnamed Lu took away Zheng Jilan's dowry, Aunt Lu also got a small kitchen, Gao Shiman's aunt Chen Jiyun felt awkward, why can an aunt use a small kitchen, but she doesn't have a main room? People do not suffer from widowhood but unevenness, and they want the whole small kitchen by pestering the old lady all day long, because the middle feed of Gaofu is managed by Chen Jiyun and Aunt Lu together, the old lady agreed; There is no one in the Gorseman Courtyard.

Gao Shiman killed a carp in the kitchen and cleaned it up, set up an oil pot, first went to the fish head, then cut the fish fillet in half, connected the tail, removed the fish bones, and then changed the skinless side into a fish net, smeared with salt and flour, and when the oil was almost burned, it was fried in the pot, fried to golden brown and started from the pot, and then used the hot pot to put several ready-made dishes, no tomato sauce can only make do with some sweet and sour, sweet and sour are not separated, and they are poured on the fish after they are cooked. A squirrel fish was completed in one go under Gao Shiman's operation, and the two girls and Zheng Jilan's personal mother-in-law Aunt Zhou were stunned.

After stir-frying two more dishes, Gao Shiman asked Ling'er and Ping'er to eat with her. By the time it was past dinner, everyone was a little hungry.

Of course, Gao Shiman does not doubt his cooking skills, she began to cook for her sister and herself in junior high school, and after graduation, her sister got married and Tongtong took over her parents, although she has a house, but she is also cheeky to lie in her sister's house, specializing in cooking, otherwise it is embarrassing.

Ling'er took a break and looked up and said, "Miss, it's so delicious, you really know how to cook?" ”

Gao Shiman usually only eats half full at night, she put down her chopsticks and said: "I'll do it after I hit my head, don't tell others!" ”

Ling'er was sending a mouthful of food to her mouth, and she choked when she heard this, and was stunned for a while.
