"We are all surnamed Meng, and we live in Mengjia Village in Huaiyuan County, and in the future, if we want to eat fish, we will come to us, and we don't have to pay such a high price anymore."

"Haha, then I thank you in advance."

The two looked at each other and smiled, arched their hands to each other, and Qiao Mai drove the carriage away.

After Qiao Mai walked away, he inquired from passers-by, and it turned out that this was Huaiyuan County, which belonged to the southeast of the Ming Dynasty, a place called Yancheng.

In backward ancient times, these hard-working southerners had tried their best to make a living, and began to dry dried fish and dried sea rice for sale.

She is not in a hurry to go home, and she will buy some fresh dried fish and pickled dried sea fish along the way.

Some of kelp, sea rice, sea beard, conch jerky, etc. will be bought.

If she has a lot of money, she should seek the welfare of the people of the south.

If you can't eat it at home, you sell it in the shop, and there are things that can be stored on the left and right.

Therefore, her way is like a devil entering the village, all the good things have been swept away by her, and the open space in front of her house is full of boxes of seafood.

Xiaoqing's head is big, the owner doesn't eat the space to raise it himself, and it's quite hi to eat other people's food.

"Master, it's been a long time to come out."

"How many days?"

"It's been five days"

"Oops, it's so fun,"

She hurriedly put the carriage into the space, rode winter dates during the day, and flew with wings at night.

Soon one dark night, she drove the carriage back to Tianshui Town, opened the gate, and became lively as soon as she entered Qiao's house in Jixiangyuan.

As soon as I heard that she was back, no one had the heart to sleep, and went out for several days, what was so fresh?

One by one, they were curious, and when they saw Qiao Mai taking a big fish of five or six hundred catties off the car, they opened their mouths one by one.

The giant looked at it in shock, all of them were the first time in their lives.

Fortunately, it was winter in Tianshui Town, and she didn't let people into the house, so the fish were placed on the table side by side, and the others were all stacked on the ground one by one.

Qiao Mai was unloading the goods on the carriage alone, and the people below followed, and Mr. Wang stroked his beard and watched like this, everyone was happy like a fool, but he was the only one who was sober.

That cartload can hold so many things? Let's just blind these fools.

However, the old man was still very happy to see so many fish and shrimp, he opened his mouth, and it seemed that tomorrow's appetizer would be available again.

In the evening, when everyone unloaded, Qiao Mai let them all rest, and did not let the cook cook for herself.

The subordinates were sent away, but their own family members did not, they were all in Qiao Mai's yard, looking at the seafood like a hill.

"Lady, what do you want to eat, I'll make it for you?"

Yuan Jiaqi said embarrassedly, he understood his cooking skills, and he could fill his stomach.

"No need, I'll do it myself, what, you don't go to sleep?"

"We'll leave when you're eating."

"Okay, then you go to the living room to make it, and I'll go and make a bowl of noodles."

"What side? I want to eat it too. ”

Smelling the smell of sea fish, everyone suddenly felt hungry, and Qiao Mai knew that they had hooked their gluttonous worms.

So I came to a box, found a large basin, picked out half a pot of shrimp and went to the kitchen.

Boil the water first, then clean the shrimp and blanch them in boiling water.

Then I boiled a pot of water, took out several instant noodle pieces from the space, and prepared to make a bowl of luxury noodles for each person.

Yuehong and Yuexia were waiting at the door of the kitchen, they knew that the master was cooking and was not used to having someone on the side.

Those sitting in the living room were very embarrassed, and Qiao Mai was tired when he came back from afar, and they didn't realize it, so they had to wait for a supper.

They all want to go, but they don't want to go, not to mention how funny and cute they are.

It didn't take long for the noodles to be ready, and Qiao Mai served them in a large bowl, with three prawns, a few pieces of ham, half an egg, and a few emerald green leaves in one bowl.

Yuehong and the two went to the living room, and Qiao Mai finally carried her into the house with her own, and saw that everyone was eating uneasily.

She sat down to eat without snorting, and the room was filled with the sound of sucking noodles.

Some people are eating and drinking soup at the same time.

I never get tired of eating this thing, especially the modern earth, and I have made this thing into a trick.

There are instant ramen noodles, instant noodles with hand, mixed noodles, etc., and the flavors are even more diverse, and no one can resist such noodles.

The ancients were even worse at it, and their resistance was even worse.

Ling'er was still sleeping, she didn't eat it, but Qiao Mai didn't wronged her, and she usually cooked and ate it for her.

It's the first time for everyone else.

The one who eats it all is called a fragrant, especially the old man, who has no interest, eats his own, and looks at other people's bowls.

"Girl, is there anything else?"

"Do you still want to eat?"

I asked, "The old man is a little embarrassed."

"If you want to eat Ming'er, I'll make it for you again, eating too much at night is not good for your health."

"That's decided, tomorrow's morning morning meal, I'll eat this."

"Okay, I'll add some other seafood for you."

"By the way, your big fish?"

"Tomorrow, I invite you to eat it at noon, and I will fry a piece for you in the morning and taste it first."

"Hey, hey"

They all laughed, guarding a talented person like Qiao Mai, it is difficult to remain a foodie.

Even Yuan Jiaqi, who loves to read, drools when he talks about Qiao Mai's cooking skills.

The next day, everyone was worried about instant noodles and came to Qiao Mai's courtyard early, Yuehong was afraid that they would be bored, so she made tea for them in the living room.

They all knew that Qiao Mai was tired, so no one disturbed her sleeping, and she didn't leave with her stomach growling.

Qiao Mai got up and smiled when she saw this scene, and went to the kitchen in her strange pajamas and shoes.

The old lady followed her to the kitchen, "What are you wearing?" ”

"Pajamas"

"It's weird"

"But it's comfortable."

"What you wear when you go to bed?"

"Hmm,"

"Two sets for my old man? And the one you wear on your feet, too. ”

"Okay, I'll give you two sets when the New Year comes, just as New Year's gifts, not now, I still have to go out and contact him."

Early in the morning, Qiao Mai made a seafood feast for everyone.

Steamed yellow croaker, braised hairtail, pan-fried tuna fillet, steamed oysters with garlic, braised prawns, and sea crab with garlic, all served in large pots.

The old man prepared all the wine early, and as soon as the seafood was served, he beckoned everyone to start eating.

There was also a bowl of deluxe version of instant noodles in front of everyone, and even Ling'er had a share.

Yuehong and Yuexia took turns to eat with Ling'er, and they also had a share of these seafood, all of which were stained with the light of waiting for Ling'er.

After breakfast, the old man took the children to class with satisfaction.

The old lady went to feed her poultry contentedly, and Ling'er put her arms around Qiao Mai's neck and snuggled in her arms.

"Mother, I'm four years old after the New Year."

"Well, what do you want to say?"

"I want to read and read with my brothers, okay?"

Qiao Mai sighed, women in ancient times couldn't take scientific exams if they were educated, and besides, the textbooks they are learning now are not something that Ling'er can learn, and it is not appropriate to let the old man teach this girl from scratch.

It seems that after the New Year, I have to find a female husband for my daughter.

"Girl, your age is the time to play, my mother allows you to play until you are five years old, and then I will find you a female gentleman and teach you well, okay?"

Ling'er shook her head, "It's not good, my brothers are all learning, only my daughter is playing, it's too unusual." ”

Qiao Mai kissed her baby girl, "Then after the New Year, my mother will invite one for you, okay?" ”

Ling'er nodded obediently, and Qiao Mai asked her again.

"Do you just want to read and write, don't you want to practice martial arts?"

Ling'er shook her head again, "Practicing martial arts is too tiring, Ling'er can't endure this hardship, let's study." ”

"Okay, my daughter can learn anything, as long as she likes to learn."

"Hee-hee, it's so nice to be a mother."

Ling'er hugged Qiao Mai's face and kissed it, "My mother is so white, and my mother is so fragrant." ”
