Chapter 144: Bought for the Second Master (Third Watch)
Mother Liu smiled at Su Yujin and the others for the return of Su Yujin and others.
"The girl is back."
The most important thing is that the second master comes back together and will stay here for a few days.
Sure enough, the girl has been out with the second master for so long, and the friendship between the two has become deeper and deeper.
The most important thing is that she has been alone in this empty mansion for more than half a year, although she is not idle every day, and occasionally she is accompanied by frost leaves, but she is a slave, and she has no master at home, so she feels that it is not the case after all.
But now that the girl is back, this house can be lively again, and it looks a little bit like home.
"It's been hard work for half a year, and Mother Liu has been busy with everything." Su Yujin said with a smile, "This is a lot of things given by the prefect's wife there when I was in Hedong Mansion, I think this clothing is excellent, Mother Liu took it to make two new clothes to wear, and this face polishing cream, I use it very delicately, Mother Liu uses it."
"The girl really tormented the old slave when she said this, it was a matter of duty, and wherever it was hard to talk about, it should be." Mother Liu looked at what Su Yujin gave her, and pushed the moisturizer back, "This material looks rich and rich, and the color is also counting, so the old slave will accept it and make a dress to wear for the New Year, this moisturizer is still kept by the girl."
What the prefect's wife gave must be a good thing, her old face, what kind of coquettishness, rub some lard cream on weekdays, and don't have a bad face in autumn and winter.
"Give it to you, and you will take it." Wormwood stuffed the porcelain vase to Mother Liu, "Girl, there are a lot of them, and the girl went back to Hedong Mansion this time and made a lot of business, and she will earn more money in the future, is there still a lack of these?"
"Big business?" Mother Liu took the moisturizer that wormwood forced over, and her eyes widened.
"No, it's a bigger business than our guest house." Wormwood's eyebrows fluttered and told Mother Liu about Kang's and Chuanchuan incense.
"The girl is really powerful, she can find such a capable shopkeeper Kang." Mother Liu's emotion and praise.
If it is really according to the plan of the shopkeeper of Nakang, there will really be no shortage of money in the future, and the girl's waist will be harder, and after arriving at the He family, life will be better.
Mother Liu smiled and narrowed her eyes, but patted her head reluctantly, "Look at the old slave is also patronizing and happy for the girl, the girl has worked hard all the way, go and rest with the second master, let the old slave cook the dinner at night."
"In the past six months, the old slave has often gone to our Su Ji shop and Huibin Building, especially the Huibin Building, and learned a lot of dishes from Chef Zheng, and the girl and the second master also tasted the old slave's craftsmanship."
"Cheng, let's try the dishes made by Mother Liu." Su Yujin didn't shirk either, he only asked Wormwood to help Mother Liu, and he went to make tea for He Yanxiu, took two plates of refreshments, and let him pad his stomach first.
When it was dark, the dishes made by Liu's mother were served on the table one by one.
Roasted pork slices with green bamboo shoots, steamed elbow in sauce, half a duck with puff pastry, stir-fried mixed vegetables, stir-fried lotus root slices, stir-fried lily with celery, yam tofu soup, and mille-feuille cake.
Eight things were all over the table, and there were a variety of colors, colors, and smells.
Su Yujin nodded again and again, "Mother Liu's craftsmanship is really much better than before."
"Hmm." He Yanxiu also nodded in agreement.
Although it is not as good as Su Yujin, it also has a level of six or seven points, which can be comparable to the chefs in ordinary small restaurants outside.
Mother Liu won the recognition and praise of the two masters, which can be said to be overjoyed, and when she cleaned up the bowl at night, she was happy, especially when she saw wormwood still gnawing on the mille-feuille bread, and even added a bowl of yam tofu soup, she was more and more happy.
It seems that in the future, I will have to ask Chef Zheng for advice on cooking.
He Yanxiu stayed here for another two days.
Su Yujin carefully checked He Yanxiu's physical condition in the past two days.
Everything recovered very smoothly, but He Yanxiu couldn't do anything too hard in the past month, especially for martial arts and other things, and it was better to slow down a little longer.
As for He Yanxiu's taste recovery, it is basically eight or nine percent better.
Su Yujin also took advantage of the time when he was in Hedong Mansion to make pills for He Yanxiu, and only took this pill back to take it on time, and after about a month, these two diseases were almost cured.
He Yanxiu wrote them down one by one, and after packing up in Xing'an, he prepared to return to Beijing.
Su Yujin packed up some things for He Yanxiu as usual.
Seeing that Su Yujin had piled up the brocade boxes one by one on the carriage into a small mountain, He Yanxiu raised his eyebrows, "What are these?"
How is there so much?
He remembered that on weekdays, Su Yujin would prepare some things when he left, but they were just pastries to eat on the road, or pickles or dried meat that could be taken to the capital to eat for a while, and according to convention, it was just a box.
"These were all bought for the second master when I was in Hedong Mansion."
Su Yujin said, "Although those fabrics are not as exquisite as the fabrics brought from Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the capital, this Lu silk is unique to Shanxi, the texture is soft and fine, and the color is also very rich.
"This is bamboo leaf green, which is a reproduction of twelve kinds of herbs based on Fenjiu, the color is golden, slightly green, has a unique medicinal taste, the taste is mellow and sweet, and it is very good for the second master to take it back and give it away."
"There are also these red dates, walnuts, dried tofu, old vinegar and other things unique to Hedong Mansion, although they are not valuable, but they are brought back thousands of miles away, and they can be imported on weekdays, and it also seems that the second master is careful and considerate."
"The second master gave the maid some silver before, saying that he wanted to buy some things to go back to honor the elders, and the maid didn't know what to buy, and he was embarrassed to ask the second master, so he only bought these, and the second master saw if he could use them when he went back."
Since he first arrived in Hedong Mansion, He Yanxiu gave the shopping fund, and he has not mentioned this matter again.
But the more he didn't mention it, the more Su Yujin attached importance to this matter in his heart.
Worried that this was just He Yanxiu was busy with official business and forgot about it for a while, if she also ignored the past, when He Yanxiu remembered it one day, she would be blind.
So, Su Yujin thought about this matter from the beginning, and chose for a long time, and finally bought these things when he left Hedong Mansion and loaded them into the carriage.
Hearing this, He Yanxiu nodded slightly.
I see.
No wonder when he left from Hedong Mansion, he saw that Su Yujin asked Wormwood and Qingkui to move so many things to the carriage.
At first, I only thought that Su Yujin bought some things for women, but I never thought that they were bought for him.
Speaking of which......
