Chapter 27 Small Test
"Okay, let's go our separate ways, and we'll meet again at that wonton stall at this hour tomorrow."
Lu Weimang bought salt and prepared to leave.
"Don't, it's getting sunier day by day, let's not be outside, tomorrow at noon, Rongsheng Pavilion, I invite you."
When Qin Xuan heard that he was still going to the wonton stall, he hurriedly excused himself. Just kidding, the wontons there can be remembered for a lifetime if eaten once, and they will never go again.
Lu Weimang smacked his lips, "Why are boys so squeamish?" This is not yet in ambush. Well, since you want to invite me, then we'll see you tomorrow in Rongsheng Pavilion. ”
After the agreement, Lu Weimang left in a hurry, she had other things to prepare, and the time was tight and the task was heavy.
Here, Qin Xuan watched Lu Weimang disappear in front of him with the housekeeper and others, and he lost the nature of continuing to go shopping, and was ready to go home and count the private money.
"Third Young Master, you're back. Madame has just taken a nap, and she must be glad to see you. ”
The mother-in-law who guarded the door warmly greeted her young master, Qin Xuan nodded and went to the courtyard. As usual, when he returned home, he needed to see his mother, Mrs. Zhang, first.
The Tingtao Pavilion where Mrs. Zhang lives is spacious and atmospheric, and the flowers and trees inside the courtyard gate are lush and orderly. The mother-in-law at the door greeted the young master warmly, but she didn't dare to follow in, there were people waiting inside.
The little girl under the corridor saw Qin Xuan coming from a distance, some went back first, some opened the curtain, and as soon as she entered the door, she handed a wet cloth to wipe her hands, busy but not chaotic.
In the main hall, there is a bronze crane smoker, and a sandalwood case against the wall, on which are placed strange stones, porcelain plates and other things, and the Buddha's hand in the plate exudes fragrance.
Mrs. Zhang was in the side room at this time, and Qin Xuan bypassed the screen and entered the side room.
"Mother."
Qin Xuan bowed and saluted.
"Okay, okay, let's not pay attention to those, come and sit, I'll let the kitchen make shrimp wontons, and Xuan'er will have a bowl too."
When Qin Xuan heard the word wonton, he hurriedly shook his head, "Mother, I'm not hungry." ”
"Where can I not be hungry, it's half an afternoon, the summer days are long, it's good to eat a small half bowl to pad your stomach."
"No need. Mother, I still have some things to do when I go out today, so I'll go back first. ”
After saying that, he hurriedly walked two steps and disappeared behind the screen.
"I wonder what he's busy with?"
Mrs. Zhang looked at her son's back and was very puzzled.
Mama Liu next to her made fun, "Master Xuan is older, maybe he is really busy?" ”
Mrs. Zhang sighed with her hand and took the grapes that Mama had peeled, "Jing'er, Wen'er has a big idea, and one by one is not at home, seeing that Xuan'er is old again, don't follow the example of his two elder brothers." ”
"Others don't know how much to envy our house, one or two are so promising, I heard that Brother Wen is studying with Confucianism outside, and he is quite famous, and the saint also said that he wants to call Brother Wen back and become an official in the court!"
"It doesn't matter if he is an official or not, the family doesn't point to him, there are masters and respects. This time, when he comes back, I'll see if I can go out as him again. ”
…
Qin Xuan escaped here and returned to his courtyard.
"Guanyue, quickly take out my box with money, and I'll see how much there is."
"Why did the young master remember to count the money? Where did I usually throw a piece of silver and forgot it in a blink of an eye, but now I am suddenly in a hurry? ”
As she spoke, Guanyue quickly took down a red-skinned wooden box from the shelf on the side.
Qin Xuan couldn't wait to take it and began to count them one by one.
"It's all broken silver, usually used for rewarding people, not much, but the golden nude of the zodiac is worth a lot."
Guanyue was on the side to help take inventory.
In the end, the total number was obtained, "120 taels of silver, 50 taels of gold, and the rest of the trivial copper coins were not counted." ”
"That's so little."
Qin Xuan silently recited.
When Guanyue heard this, she couldn't help but distinguish, "Third Young Master, you usually spend money to reward people, and your interest has come up, and you will scatter a lot, now you know the benefits of money?" ”
Qin Xuan shook his head, "You don't know, my little brother has tens of thousands of taels with him, and we are now..."
I wanted to talk about partnership in business, but the words came to my mouth, but I swallowed it, and before I could tell others, Guanyue was given by my mother, whether I wanted to find her over to ask about my current situation, or keep it a secret first.
"What's it now?"
Moon gaze asked.
"It's nothing, I just think she has money, I don't have money."
Don't look at the moon as just a maid, but there is some energy to treat money like dung, "What is a silver ticket of 10,000 taels?" We have gold and silver mountains in our house, can we still lack the young master in the future? ”
Qin Xuan shook his head and didn't say anything more.
Here, Lu Weimang led people to carry several large bags of things, and let people put them directly in their small courtyards. Then the decolorization experiment begins.
She hadn't actually done it either, but she still had some confidence. She learned these most basic physics knowledge when she was in junior high school, and the rest is just a few more experiments.
Drove everyone out of the yard, Lu Weimang took his shirt and began to work.
Fortunately, she has a lot of strength, fetching water, boiling water, packing, and filtering, which are all pieces of cake for her.
After all the 10 catties of salt were melted and filtered, she began to cook salt on the fire again.
She thought clearly, if she wanted to make money, she had to come up with a unique product to do it. Otherwise, even if she has a high status and starts a business, she should be cheated or cheated, maybe people will see her high status and deliberately fool her. Didn't you see that the eggs in the palace are more expensive than the ones outside?
Guarding the stove in the small kitchen in her yard, Lu Weimang, who didn't feel hot, felt a little hot, and the beads of sweat fell from her head, converging with the beads of sweat on her face, and falling from her chin together.
But hard work pays off in the end. Circles of snow-white salt began to appear on the side of the big black pot, and compared with the salt that looked rough and yellow just now, it was more than a little more delicate and snow-white.
It's like the white sugar she made in the first place.
Lu Weimang was slightly distracted, and quickly retracted his mind, picked up the iron piece he found just now, scraped off a little salt from the side of the pot and put it in his mouth, the filtered salt will improve the taste of coarse salt a lot tomorrow morning than just now.
Lu Weimang nodded, increased the firepower, burned the whole pot, and collected it with a delicate porcelain jar.
Looking at the sky, it should be enough to make another pot for yourself.
This time, in addition to the charcoal, Lu Weimang added other filter substances, and when her pot came out, the taste was even better than the pot just now.
Lu Weimang wrote labels, which are Snow Salt No. 1 and Snow Salt No. 2. At this stage, that's all she can find, and if she can find a better filtration formula, of course, it would be good, but for now, one is enough.
When Lu Qingshan Sanya took his two sons home together, what he saw was Lu Weimang, who was full of oil and messy hair.
"Girl, didn't you go shopping? Why, finally tired of shopping, go home and practice stone locks? Let's talk to my father, how many pounds of practice? ”
Compared with Lu Qingshan's dazedness, Cheng Yang and Changfeng said that they were not surprised, they had also seen their sister like this before, could it be said?
"Sister, is it done?"
Cheng Yang asked with some excitement.
Changfeng also reacted, "Sister, have you made something good again?" Let me see! ”
Lu Weimang pressed his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.
"Go wash up first, then eat, and then talk about it when you're done."
After speaking, regardless of the wailing of the long wind, he hurriedly returned to his courtyard and asked people to prepare hot water for bathing.
In the main hall, Daddy Lu caught the wailing wind, "Okay, just come back from outside, go back and change your clothes and clean up first." Your sister can't run again, what's howling? ”
After speaking, the three of them went back to their respective courtyards together.
Today, everyone tacitly accelerated their movements, and there was no usual communication during the meal, and they just wanted to finish eating quickly, and Sister Ao quickly revealed the secret.
Who knew that Lu Weimang snorted, "Didn't you pay attention, are there any differences between these dishes?" ”
Changfeng shook his head honestly, Cheng Yang tried the dishes with chopsticks and chopsticks, and Daddy Lu complained directly, "Usually, we like to go home and eat a few pieces of braised pork, but now, I haven't eaten it for a long time~"
After speaking, he glanced at his daughter with his eyes.
Lu Weimang glared, "Daddy! ”
Daddy Lu hurriedly changed the conversation, "Hey, it's okay, my daughter will eat whatever my father wants." ”
Lu Weimang was helpless, "Dad, I told you that eating big fish and meat at night is not good for your health, and you are easy to get sick when you are old." Your belly is so big now, and if you get bigger in the future, you can't see your toes when you look down, and you can't walk. ”
Father Lu was a little unconvinced, "The general is fatter than me, and he doesn't seem to know how heroic he is." ”
It's not okay to be reasonable, Lu Weimang simply raised his eyebrows, "If you can't say it's okay, it's not okay." You can eat whatever you want at noon, and you need to be lighter at night. ”
Lu Weimang thought that at this time, he must be particularly majestic, so Father Lu nodded again and again. As everyone knows, she has a bun face, and she doesn't know how cute she is with her eyebrows, Daddy Lu is not frightened, but cute, so he loosens his mouth so quickly.
Fighting over here, Cheng Yang over there has already tasted all the dishes, "Sister, this dish and this dish seem to taste better." It's the same dish as these two, but the taste is a little weird. ”
There are some things that are not known without comparison. Lu Weimang nodded, took out the small porcelain vase he had prepared, and put it in his cuff.
"Look."
After speaking, he handed it to Cheng Yang, and Changfeng also looked at it on his stomach.
Cheng Yang shook one of the porcelain bottles, and when he heard the sound of particles, he poured it out, "Sister, it's coarse salt." ”
Lu Weimang smiled silently, while Cheng Yang picked up another bottle and shook it, with a muffled impact sound inside, trying to pour it out, Cheng Yang's eyes changed, "Sister, is this sugar?" ”
Of course, Cheng Yang has seen white sugar.
"Taste it."
Cheng Yang then stretched out his chopsticks, clicked some and put them in his mouth, Changfeng also drew a gourd in the same way, and Daddy Lu next to him directly twisted some with his hand and put it in his mouth.
Changfeng snorted, "Sister, it's not sugar, it's salt!" ”
Lu Weimang looked at the family in front of him, "It's salt, after our family, we will do this business." ”
