Chapter 63: One dish a day
On the second day, Chen Xiao was woken up by Chunhong's knock on the door.
She read the information last night and saw five o'clock in the morning, worried that she would oversleep in the space, so she simply went to sleep on the bed outside the space.
Occasionally sleep on the outside bed, otherwise the bed will look like it has never been used.
Chunhong was telling her to get up for lunch, and it was already noon.
After lunch, Chen Xiao went to Yihong Garden, and Fang Yu Ruying accompanied her.
When he saw Nie Feng, he told Chen Xiao: The Lord Xu, who was drunk yesterday, died in the middle of the night last night.
"Dead?" Chen Xiao was surprised: "How did you die?" ”
"I'm drunk."
"Will you be affected here?" After all, he was drunk in Yihong Garden.
"What's the impact?" Nie Feng didn't care while making tea: "It's the shopkeeper Li of the Longshun who invited him to drink, what does it matter to us." ”
"By the way, the man who stood behind Lord Xu yesterday is not the shopkeeper Li of the Longshun? He was also there on the day of the banquet of the county order of the Sang Ha Festival, and he sat next to the man who drank eighteen cups with me. ”
"Yes, it's him, Li Mingyu, the big shopkeeper of Longshun. The one who drank eighteen cups with you was Lord Min of the Dingtai. ”
Nie Feng told Chen Xiao about the Longshun, Dingtai, Sheng'an, and the emperor's small treasury. Only then did Chen Xiao understand the relationship between them.
"The backstage of the Longshun is the Xia Guolu Palace. The backstage of the Sheng'an is the Xiling Duan Palace. King Lu is the younger brother of Emperor Xia, and King Duan is also the younger brother of Emperor Xiling. Oh, no, the old Emperor Xiling is dead, and King Duan is the uncle of the current Emperor Xiling. ”
Chen Xiao was speechless: They are all royal nobles! No wonder these two foreign firms are so good in South Vietnam.
Fang Yu asked, "How many years has the Long Shun been in operation in South Vietnam?" ”
Nie Feng thought about it for a while: "About five or six years. ”
Fang Yu asked again: "How much silver can Longshun earn in a year?" ”
"Oh, that's a lot! A few million taels of silver a year. ”
Fang Yu was thoughtful.
The three girls, Qingqing, Rong'er, and Xin'er, arrived.
As soon as Qingqing came in, she squatted and saluted: "Thank you Fang Gongzi and Chen Niangzi for saving my sister's life." ”
Miss Qianjin is from a background, she will not kowtow to people casually, and the squat is already very sincere. Usually it is a shallow squat, knee bending, or chin bowing.
"Get up, you're welcome." Chen Xiaodao: "Did your sister tell you what happened?" ”
"That's it." Qingqing got up: "I also want to thank Mrs. Chen's guys." I will thank you in person when I have the opportunity in the future. ”
If it weren't for Xiaoshi and a few people to fish up Lian'er in time, Chen Xiao and they might not be able to save them.
"As long as you don't get them wrong." Chen Xiaodao.
Green jaw head. Yesterday, she did misunderstand and was very angry, but she didn't have time to ask. Later, I heard my sister tell me what happened, and I knew that the three people were not light, but also helped my sister pick out poisonous weeds.
Nie Feng said: "Okay, then let's start learning songs!" ”
……
Chen Xiao taught for two days in a row, and the three girls all knew the rhythm, they memorized the score, and then practiced by themselves.
……
In the blink of an eye, in July, the chili peppers in the small courtyard of Chunji can already be picked and eaten.
The bacon that Chen Xiao made before was not made into jerky in the end. Because it's basically pork belly, it's not easy to make jerky. There are no cypress trees near the county seat, but there are pine trees. They went and cut some pine branches, and finally made smoked meat.
Stir-fried smoked meat with green peppers, a few people in the small courtyard have never eaten it. When they first ate the dish, the rice in the steamer was scooped up.
"Sister, this dish is so delicious, it will be the signature dish of our store in the future!" Whether it's chili peppers or smoked meats, they weren't available before.
Chen Xiao laughed at their unproductive appearance and said: "Tomorrow I will teach you to make green pepper fish, the day after tomorrow to make green pepper chicken, and the day after tomorrow to make green pepper fried meat and green pepper scrambled eggs." ”
"Sister, I'm afraid there aren't enough peppers in the yard."
"Then you can go to Nangou Village to have a look. Some of the peppers there should be ready to be picked. ”
After that, Xiaoshi went to Nangou Village to pick some chili peppers and came back, and Chen Xiao taught them to cook every day according to what she said before.
On July 15, the "Flower Day" of Yihong Garden, Nie Feng invited everyone in the Chunji Courtyard to go to Yihong Garden to listen to music and watch plays.
This time Chunhong also went. She heard Xiao Shi tell them how many delicious things they ate last time they went to Yihong Garden. Of course, Xiao Shi didn't say anything about Lian'er, nor did he say anything about County Lieutenant Xu. He was afraid that Chunhong would not dare to go.
The "Flower Day" theater performance was in the afternoon, and the group had lunch, closed the store, and set off collectively.
The six of them came to the Yihongyuan Theater, and Nie Feng arranged for them to be in a private room on the second floor.
"How many people will come today?" Chen Xiao asked Nie Feng.
"Total." Nie Feng raised his eyebrows at Chen Xiao.
Fang Yu couldn't see this kid frowning at Xiaoxiao. Now he finally knows that it is "Xiaoxiao", not "Xiaoxiao".
He said, "Hurry up and bring the tea and dried fruits, and let us sit down." ”
A few days ago, Fang Yu accompanied Chen Xiao to Yihong Garden to teach songs, several women were learning there, and Fang Yu and Nie Feng were drinking tea and chatting here. Nie Feng admired Fang Yu's martial arts very much and wanted to learn from him. Fang Yu asked him to exercise his body first, when can he run from the county seat to Nangou Village, and then run back from Nangou Village in a stick of incense, and then come to learn from him.
A stick of incense is about 30 minutes, and there are four or five miles from Nangou Village to the county seat. Nie Feng thought that this was impossible, and it was impossible for anyone to run back and forth in a stick of incense.
Fang Yu made a bet with him that if he ran back and forth with a stick of incense, Nie Feng would lose him a hundred taels of silver. As a result, Fang Yu got one hundred taels.
Nie Feng was convinced, and asked himself if he couldn't practice such a speed no matter what. However, he still wanted to ask Fang Yu to teach him.
Fang Yu saw that his personality was not bad, and promised to teach him a slingshot. Nie Feng felt that the slingshot was useless, and Fang Yu said that he didn't understand the true power of the slingshot at all. He wanted to demonstrate it, but the slingshot that Nie Feng brought, he broke it as soon as he broke it, saying that it was a child's thing, no wonder he felt that learning the slingshot was useless.
After that, Nie Feng followed his request to find a slingshot with real lethality. However, this kind of slingshot was not available in South Vietnam, and it had to be brought from Xiling.
Fang Yu likes Nie Feng's personality because this kid has a free and easy personality, no shelves, and thick skin. The Nie family is also an official, but Nie Feng does not have the arrogance of the official son, and those who don't know think that he is from a commoner.
"Tea and dried fruit will come soon. You sit down for a moment, and I'll go and greet the others. ”
After Nie Feng finished speaking, he went downstairs. Today is the second "Flower Day" of Yihongyuan, and he invited many well-known figures in the county.
After a while, tea, dried fruits, pastries, and fresh fruits were served.
Chunhong saw the "brown sugar cake" cut into small pieces, and remembered that she had never seen the market before.
"Hey, there's a cake!"
Chen Xiao picked up a piece of brown sugar cake and took a look, this was a baked pastry.
"It's brown sugar cake." Chunhong Road.
"This is brown sugar cake?" Chen Xiao always thought that the brown sugar cake was steamed, but he didn't expect it to be baked.
Chunhong sighed in her heart: It turned out that Sister Chen had never seen a brown sugar cake.
