Chapter 51: The Missing Chicken

Yun Xiaoshuang paid and found Qian and other women who were cooking with Aunt Zhao on the construction site to help kill the chickens and clean up the chickens.

In the kitchen, she made the processed chicken into chicken powder in batches, and Zhao Hong and Aunt Zhao followed her to help, and a group of people were busy.

Wang, who had the most broken mouth, couldn't help but complain to the people around him while plucking chicken feathers: "I don't know what the frost girl is doing when she buys so many chickens, she can't finish eating, it's weird." ”

"What the hell is she doing in the kitchen, is she doing something shady?"

"Pluck your chicken feathers!" Qian glared at Wang, "People hired you to work for you, not to gossip behind your back!" ”

"Where do you get so much curiosity......"

"Aren't I working?" Wang pulled a handful of chicken feathers angrily, "What, I can't even speak now?" ”

"Aren't you also invited by Yun Xiaoshuang to work, what I like to say, can you control it?!"

"You!"

The Qian family was extremely angry, and he was too lazy to deal with the Wang family, but he thought in his heart that he would tell Yun Xiaoshuang not to invite this person again in the future.

Yun Xiaoshuang and the three of them worked hard all morning, made twenty chickens into chicken powder, and then asked Zhao Mocheng and Second Uncle Zhao to put a pot of chicken powder into a small clay pot.

This time, a total of 39 chickens were selected, and when the remaining 19 chickens were finished, the goods were almost ready this time.

She didn't expect that when she was almost done in the afternoon, she found that there was one less chicken.

"How could there be one less chicken?" Qian was a little puzzled.

The chickens were kept in captivity in the open space outside the kitchen, and they were killed and cleaned up, and the Qian family sent them to the kitchen, and the whole process was personally supervised by her.

"I counted thirty-nine chickens this morning, yes." Second Aunt Zhao said.

"Forget it."

Yun Xiaoshuang frowned, interrupting everyone's speculation, "One less is one less, and it doesn't have much impact." ”

At the moment, the most important thing is to make the chicken powder first, as for the trivial matter of losing a chicken, it is better to wait for her to finish this period before dealing with it.

Seeing this, Qian didn't say anything, but his expression was very annoyed.

In her opinion, Yun Xiaoshuang handed over these errands to her out of trust in herself, but now that she has lost a chicken, she is really shameless to face Yun Xiaoshuang.

Qian made up his mind and wanted this matter to be investigated!

Everyone in the Zhao family didn't know what the Qian family was thinking, so they put their minds on the remaining eighteen chickens.

I worked in the kitchen all afternoon, until sunset, and the rest of the chicken powder was finally done.

However, before he could relax, there was a cacophony at the door.

"Let's go! Let me in! ”

"Push what? I know to go! ”

Yun Xiaoshuang went out to take a look, and it turned out to be the Qian family who pushed the Wang family, and brought a few village women who helped together today to find the door, and there was Li Zheng with her.

"What's going on?"

"Xiaoshuang, you don't know that the chicken that was missing before was actually stolen by the Wang family!"

Qian glared at Wang indignantly, and then poured out some chicken bones from the sackcloth pocket in his hand.

Qian was not idle at all this afternoon, she thought back and forth for a long time, and felt that Wang was the most suspicious.

Thinking that her baseless accusation would not be admitted by the Wang family, she quietly slipped to the Wang family's house.

Wang probably thought that she had done it seamlessly, without any disguise at all, and when Qian went, she was pouring the finished chicken bones into the yard and was caught.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Wang's dead duck has a hard mouth, "This chicken was obviously bought by me on the street yesterday, how did it become stolen?" ”

"You mother-in-law don't slander me!"

"Slander?"

Qian sneered, "How do I remember that yesterday you didn't even cook the melon seeds at home for an afternoon, and you provoked your family to come back and quarrel with you, and everyone knew about it." ”

"You don't think you've forgotten this, do you?"

Wang's laziness is well-known throughout the village, so Blacksmith Wang quarrels with her a lot on weekdays, and now he lives directly in the blacksmith shop and rarely returns home.

"So what?!"

Wang's eyes widened, and she took out her sprinkling energy again, "Can't I remember wrong!" ”

"This is the chicken I bought at the market a few days ago, and I killed it if I wanted to eat it today."

Wang clasped his hands in front of his chest, looking like he could bear me.

"You unreasonable woman! This is clearly the chicken you stole from Xiaoshuang's house today! "The Qian family is extremely angry, but when it comes to the means of sprinkling and playing tricks, she is really not the opponent of the Wang family.

"Lizheng, you give a comment."

Qian Shi turned his gaze to Li Zheng on the side, "Xiaoshuang is kind enough to do the work for this woman, this woman doesn't know how to be grateful, she even steals things!" ”

"What a shame!"

"Who do you say stole something?! I didn't steal it! ”

"You stole it, you wretch! Shameless for chicken thieves! ”

"You damn woman, see if I don't tear your mouth apart!"

Seeing that the Wang family pounced on the Qian family, Yun Xiaoshuang quietly stretched out her legs and tripped the Wang family into the mud.

"Wang, your kung fu is very good, but this look doesn't feel very good, and you can't see such a big piece of bluestone on the ground?"

"You!" Where is there any stone on the earth?

However, the Wang family was a little jealous of Yun Xiaoshuang in his heart after all, and he didn't dare to fight her directly.

Yun Xiaoshuang smiled and said, "If you want to know if you stole this chicken from my house, it's easy." ”

"Miss Xiaoshuang, is it possible that you have any way?" Hearing this, Li Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he was really grinding his brain by the Wang family and the Qian family along the way.

However, when Wang heard Yun Xiaoshuang's words, he suddenly began to be stunned, and his face began to become unnatural.

"To tell you the truth, the reason why I buy so many chickens is to make a condiment." Yun Xiaoshuang glanced at the Wang family, and did not sell Guanzi.

"This condiment has very high requirements for the quality of the chicken, and the chicken is cooked and then dried to get chicken powder."

"However, because the chicken itself contains a lot of moisture, the temperature requirements for drying are extremely demanding."

Yun Xiaoshuang clasped her hands in front of her chest and explained the process in detail, and everyone pricked up their ears, for fear of missing a word.

"If the temperature is too high, the flavor of the chicken powder will be lost, and if the temperature is too low, it will not be able to fully bring out the flavor, so in order to minimize the moisture in the chicken, I added laxatives to the chicken's food as soon as it was delivered back today......

Yun Xiaoshuang said as she turned her head to look at the Wang family, who was obviously a little panicked now.

"So Wang, if you really stole this chicken from my house, you are starting to feel sick to your stomach now, right?"

Hearing this, Wang's face suddenly changed greatly, and his hand subconsciously covered his stomach, as if he was really starting to feel a faint pain.

When everyone saw her reaction, it was unnatural to see who was who.

"Ouch, my belly!"

Wang suddenly clutched his stomach and began to run in the direction of the latrine, apparently the laxative began to work.

Seeing this, Yun Xiaoshuang couldn't help but sneer, her things were not so easy to take.

Now that the evidence is conclusive, even if the Wang family wants to repay the debt, they have no excuse, and there is Li Zheng, so in the end, they have to obediently apologize to Yun Xiaoshuang and compensate according to the Qian family's requirements.

Now Wang's reputation in Yungou Village is completely stinky, and when Blacksmith Wang heard about this, he simply went home and moved all his things to the blacksmith shop, completely drawing a line with her.

After sending the finished chicken powder to Zuixian Building, Yun Xiaoshuang sent the remaining bit to Shopkeeper Song, and after tasting the effect of chicken powder, Shopkeeper Song suddenly smiled.

"Miss Xiaoshuang, don't worry, as long as you promote it well, this chicken powder will definitely sell out soon."

"It doesn't have to be." Yun Xiaoshuang waved her hand and refused, "The process of making this chicken powder is extremely difficult, and there is an agreement between me and Zuixianlou, so I don't want to sell it in large quantities." ”

Hearing this, Shopkeeper Song immediately felt quite regretful, but there is no harm in a small amount, after all, things are scarce and expensive, and it is estimated that they can be sold at a high price.

This time, Yun Xiaoshuang received several hundred taels of silver, deducting the cost of buying chickens and labor yesterday, and there were still six or seven hundred taels on hand.

With so much cash on her body for a long time, it felt very inconvenient, so Yun Xiaoshuang simply went to the money bank in the city to open an account, so that it would be much more convenient to withdraw the silver in the future.

Since the Zuixian Mansion has chicken powder, the taste of the dishes can be said to be far better than before, and there is an endless stream of guests every day, and the other restaurants in the city suddenly seem much more deserted compared to it.

Especially Fengxian Building, which has always regarded Drunken Immortal Building as its opponent, has been even more bleak and pitiful during this time.

Lin Yu is the shopkeeper of Fengxian Building, since Zuixianlou's business is getting better and better, he sent someone to investigate, but this time Zuixianlou's mouth is too tight, and he only got the news today.

"You mean to say that Zuixianlou has added a special condiment to the dishes, which has greatly improved the taste of the dishes?"

"Yes, shopkeeper, look at this."

The man dressed as a servant handed Lin Yu a small ceramic jar, which was the batch of chicken powder that Yun Xiaoshuang had handed over to Shopkeeper Song before.

"This thing is called chicken powder, and as long as it is added to the dish, it can maximize the umami of the dish."

Lin Yu twisted some powder with his fingers and put it in his mouth, and sure enough, an extremely fresh taste spread in his mouth.

"Where can I buy this chicken powder?" Lin Yu said with a look of surprise.

The little guy shook his head helplessly, when he bought this chicken powder, he specially asked the shopkeeper Song: "I heard the shopkeeper of the dry goods store say that because the person who makes the chicken powder has an agreement with Zuixianlou, he will not sell this chicken powder in large quantities." ”

Seeing Lin Yu's angry face, the little guy hurriedly said, "But I've already found out who made this chicken powder." ”

Lin Yu's face softened a little: "Let's listen to it, who can make such a good thing?" ”

"That person's name is Yun Xiaoshuang, and he lives in Yungou Village."
