Chapter 029: Copper Pot Shabu
He Yanxiu obviously recognized the taste of this cup of tea, and nodded slightly.
"Has the second master had lunch?" Su Yujin asked.
"From the capital to here, I have been on the road for nearly two hours, and I haven't had lunch yet." He Yanxiu replied.
"Then I'll cook a few dishes for the second master." Su Yujin thought for a moment and said, "It's damp and cold on a rainy day, why don't you make a mixed pot of mushrooms and simmered cabbage sum with ham?" ”
He Yanxiu hesitated for a moment and asked, "What did you just eat?" ”
Smelling, it seems to be quite fragrant.
And seeing Su Yujin's mouth full of oil, it should taste good.
"Mutton shabu in a copper pot." Su Yujin replied, "Does the second master want to eat this?" ”
"Let's eat this." He Yanxiu paused again, "Plus half a bowl of wontons." ”
The wontons I ate last time seemed to taste good and smelled good.
"Second master, wait a minute, the maid will go and prepare." Su Yujin was blessed, and called Wormwood and Mother Liu to prepare the things for the copper pot shabu.
hand-cut the mutton, washed all kinds of vegetables, slice and arranged, and hurriedly wrapped a few wontons that He Yanxiu wanted.
In addition, Su Yujin asked Liu's mother to put some noodles and stay awake, ready to drag two noodles later for He Yanxiu to taste.
After all, no hot pot is complete without pulling noodles!
Everything was ready, the charcoal fire was boiling, and the heat was rising in the delicate copper pot.
The soup boils, boil the meat.
A piece of fresh and tender mutton, slightly soaked in a dip, tastes tender and juicy, and there is no half of the fishy taste.
He Yanxiu took a bite and nodded slightly, "It tastes good." ”
"It's good if the second master likes it." Su Yujin put some vegetables and bean skin in the pot and asked He Yanxiu to eat them.
Small charcoal stoves, small pots, you can't cook too many things at one time, you can only eat slowly.
But this way of eating is also quite comfortable, but it makes He Yanxiu, who is extremely busy on weekdays, enjoy a rare leisurely and comfortable feeling, so he doesn't have to urge extra, and he doesn't even need Su Yujin to serve on the side, he just eats it himself.
After eating a copper pot shabu for a full hour, in addition to the half bowl of wontons, and eating two more noodles, He Yanxiu completely put down his chopsticks.
Su Yujin asked Wormwood and Mother Liu to remove the charcoal stove and copper pot and other things, and replaced them with freshly cooked tea.
It was bought in the tea shop in the county some time ago, and it has the effect of eliminating food and regulating qi, and it is quite suitable to drink a cup after a meal.
This arrangement seemed to make He Yanxiu feel very comfortable, because Su Yujin saw the smile on his face.
Of course, it is not excluded that she has seen something wrong.
However, after eating, Su Yujin was in trouble.
Eating is a serious thing in the end, although she is a little busy with shabu-shabu and vegetables on the side, and she can be regarded as having a job to do, but now she is full of food and drink......
What should she do?
Just when Su Yujin was hesitating what to do, He Yanxiu took a book from Xing'an and sat at the table to read it casually.
Su Yujin didn't know what to do, so he had to make another pot of tea for He Yanxiu and prepare some refreshments.
When the work was over, He Yanxiu raised his hand at her, "Sit down." ”
“…… Yes, second master. ”
Su Yujin, who originally wanted to find an excuse to slip away, could only sit down as he said.
Sit quietly, watching the drizzle outside, watching the rain flowing under the corridor, looking at the melon seeds, orchid beans, peanut crisps on the table, and then looking at a thread on your cuffs.
If you get tired of it, start all over again.
……
After a stick of incense, Su Yujin pinched his thigh, and forcibly suppressed his sleepiness to yawn.
When you are full of food and sleepy, you can't avoid vulgarity anywhere.
What's more, this He Yanxiu seems to be reading with relish when he sits here and reads, and she is really bored sitting like this.
At first, Su Yujin was still strong and counted how many melon seeds were on the table, but after counting, the eyelids gradually fought, and he could only support his chin with his hands.
But Rao is like this, Su Yujin still feels that his mind is blank from time to time......
After noticing that the people around him had gone through the fifth nap, He Yanxiu put down the tea he had taken a sip of, and took a piece of peanut crisp into his mouth.
The crispy taste spreads in the mouth.
He Yanxiu's brows furrowed slightly, but he quickly stretched, put the peanut crisp he had taken a bite into the plate, and cleared his throat, "The rain outside seems to have stopped." ”
Suddenly, when he heard the voice, Su Yujin was excited, and most of his sleepiness suddenly dissipated, and he hurriedly raised his eyes and looked, "It's stopped." ”
"During this time, how is your wonton stall business doing?" He Yanxiu asked.
"Second Master Lao remembers, the wonton stall has long been closed......"
"Oh?" He Yanxiu put down the book in his hand, "Why don't you open it?" I ate this wonton and it tasted pretty good. ”
The tastes of the people of Qinghe County have been so picky that they don't even recognize such wontons, so that Su Yujin's wonton stall can't be opened?
"The wonton tastes good, so I simply bought a shop and added noodles, haggis soup, etc., and opened a rice shop, named Su Ji."
Su Yujin said with a smile, "Thanks to the second master's blessing, Su Ji now has seven or eight guys who are busy and can be full every day, and the business is not bad for the time being." ”
He Yanxiu, "......"
It's not that it can't be opened, but it has changed from a small stall to a rice shop, which is directly a notch.
It's his narrow-mindedness!
But just now Su Yujin said that he bought a shop?
The shop in Qinghe County, let alone about four hundred taels, last time he gave Su Yujin two hundred taels, even Su Yujin's wonton stall can be sold for some silver, buy this shop, plus the man, the capital of opening a shop......
I'm afraid that Su Yujin is also a little overstretched at this time.
He Yanxiu thought about it, and after calling Xing'an over, he took a silver ticket and handed it to Su Yujin, "Business has always been difficult to do at the beginning, and silver is needed everywhere, you can take these, you don't have to be too frugal." ”
Seeing the words three hundred taels written on the silver ticket, Su Yujin was overjoyed and hurriedly took it, "Thank you, Second Master." ”
Then, happily stuffed it into the purse that hung from his waist.
Probably thinking that it was not safe to put it in the purse, Su Yujin got up and went into the inner room again, took out the silver ticket from the purse, put it in the small wooden box of the makeup, and dropped the lock again, before sitting back again.
"Thank you, Second Master." Su Yujin thanked him again.
I was so happy to get the silver, and I was really short of money.
I said before that I could write a letter to the capital if I had something, but now it has been almost half a year since then, but Su Yujin has not asked for any help.
Is it about doing the duty of an outer room and not wanting to cause trouble for him?
