Ye Yunshu prepared three flavors, egg yolk fresh meat dumplings, bacon dumplings, and red bean and date dumplings.

Yingniang and Xiaoqing's craftsmanship in making zongzi is much better than Ye Yunshu's, Ye Yunshu's wrapping can only be said to be not scattered, but Yingniang and Zhou Xiaoqing's wrapping is a standard triangle, which is very good-looking.

"Little lady, there are so many leaves left. ”

After wrapping the three flavors of zongzi, half of the leaves are left.

"Keep the bag for the next day, we have to make two new flavors next day. ”

Ye Yunshu tied the last zongzi in his hand with straw and threw it into the dustpan next to him.

"Yingniang, it's hard for you to boil the zongzi. ”

Ying Niang smiled and responded.

Ying Niang boiled the zongzi in a pot, and Ye Yunshu already felt his index finger move just by smelling the fragrance.

The boiled zongzi Yingniang put it in the dustpan and cold, and it was about to be lunch, and she began to prepare the dishes for lunch again.

Ye Yunshu turned his head and walked out of the kitchen, Ye Zhengwen had already gone to Ye Zhengqiang's house in the morning to get two bundles of bean stalks and came back, Ye Yunshu picked up the bean stalks and burned them in an open space next to the kitchen.

After the bean stalk was burned to ash and cooled, Ye Yunshu used a wooden basin to collect all the bean stalk ashes on the ground.

"Little lady, do you want to make soap?"

Zhou Xiaoqing helped Ye Yunshu make soap, but it was all ash directly from the stove, why did you have to make it alone this time, and it was designated as the ash of the bean stalk?

"It's not. Ye Yunshu shook his head, "Let's make zongzi." ”

"Make zongzi?" Zhou Xiaoqing's eyes widened, does it mean that you have to use specific ash to cook zongzi? But it has already been burned, how to cook it?

Zhou Xiaoqing was puzzled, and followed behind Ye Yunshu to look curiously.

Ye Yunshu brought the collected bean stalk ashes into the kitchen, took a basket and put it on the small wooden bucket, and put the cloth prepared before on top of the basket, and then poured the bean stalk ashes into the basket.

Scooped five scoops of water and poured it on the ash of the bean stalk, Ye Yunshu pinched the four corners of the cloth together, poured out the excess ash, then washed it, and changed a bucket to filter the gray water just now.

Do this three times before stopping.

She scooped three bowls of glutinous rice and put them in a small basin, and the freshly filtered gray water was poured down directly.

"Little lady!" Zhou Xiaoqing subconsciously wanted to stop.

Ye Yunshu smiled lightly, "Don't worry, the filtered one is clean, and the alkaline water we use to make soap is the same reason." ”

Zhou Xiaoqing looked at Ye Yunshu ignorantly, she didn't understand, this soap was originally meant to be washed, and she didn't think there was anything with gray water, but the zongzi were eaten with gray water, can you still eat the zongzi with gray water?

Doesn't it taste gray? A mouthful of scum?

Yingniang worked as a cook, and knew that some dishes were more peculiar, but she didn't have as much reaction as Zhou Xiaoqing.

She smiled slightly, "Little lady, this is really a lot of ideas. ”

Ye Yunshu touched his nose, "Just try it, I learned it from books." ”

Ying Niang and Zhou Xiaoqing have never studied, they are illiterate, and when they heard the words, Ying Niang's face showed an emotional look.

"It's good to read. ”

Thinking that her son could also recognize some words, Yingniang was quite pleased.

"Yingniang, after you finish lunch in a while, help me pour the remaining red beans into the tail pot and boil them over low heat. ”

"Yes, little lady. ”

Ye Yunshu took Zhou Xiaoqing out of the kitchen, and just walked to the inner courtyard when he met Zhou Fugui walking inside.

"Uncle Fugui. ”

Ye Yunshu shouted, and Zhou Fugui paused, "What does the little lady command?"

"Is Uncle Fugui familiar with Fucheng?"

Zhou Fugui nodded, "It's quite familiar." ”

When he was in Zhoufu before, Zhou Fugui was responsible for helping the owner of the family run the shop, so he was actually more familiar with Lizhou Mansion.

"That's the case, Uncle Fugui, you also know that I have a shop in Fucheng, which has not been taken care of and repaired, and I can't get out of the house and workshop here for the time being, I want to ask Uncle Fugui to go to Fucheng to help ask someone to repair the shop, can I leave tomorrow?"

"The little lady is polite. Zhou Fugui was terrified, "The little lady just needs to give orders, and Fugui is full of brains." ”

Don't say that he will leave tomorrow, even if he leaves right now, he has no complaints.

Ye Yunshu smiled and bowed, "When you get to Fucheng, go to the academy to talk to Lang Jun first, and then you can ask Lang Jun if you are unsure." ”

Xiao Mingting is in Fucheng, and Ye Yunshu is still relatively relieved.

"Don't worry, little lady, I will do it. ”

"Yun Shu, is Yun Shu here?"

There was a shout outside the door.

Zhou Fugui immediately said: "Little lady, I'll go out and have a look." ”

"No, I don't. Ye Yunshu waved his hand, "I heard it was coming to me, I'll go and take a look." ”

Ye Yunshu opened the courtyard gate, and the person outside the courtyard gate was Ye Shou's mother, Zheng.

Ye Yunshu smiled slightly, "Aunt Zheng, is there something wrong with me?"

Zheng also smiled and asked, "Yun Shu, are you free on the fifteenth day of next month?"

Ye Yunshu was stunned for a moment, "Aunt Zheng might as well say it directly." ”

Zheng was a little embarrassed, "Next month, your brother Ye Shou marries a bride, I want to invite you to have a wedding wine." ”

"Brother Ye Shou is married?" Ye Yunshu frowned, "This is a good thing!

"I've just settled down today. Zheng's face was full of spring breeze, "If you hadn't asked Ye Shou to do things in the workshop, you wouldn't have nodded so quickly." ”

Now the fiancé of Taoshui Village is very popular, and as long as the matchmaker hears about Taoshui Village, he is very happy.

The family affairs in Taoshui Village are easy to say, and they get a lot of remuneration, matchmakers are willing to do business here, Ye Yunshu doesn't often go out and doesn't find out, in fact, there are matchmakers running here almost every day since this month.

Whether it is marrying or marrying, it is much easier than in previous years.

Ye Shou's family used to be poor in the village, and they couldn't talk about their daughters-in-law, so they are still singles at the age of eighteen this year.

Since entering the Ye family's workshop, there is an income of at least 400 wen a month, and there is about one or two silver in February and March.

The matchmaker gave three good family affairs, and Zheng chose one, and after meeting people yesterday, the two sides decided the family affairs on the spot.

The dowry is not much, three taels of silver, and the woman's side is mainly interested in Ye Shou working in the Ye family's workshop, and she doesn't have to worry about her livelihood after she gets married.

"Aunt Zheng, I may not be able to go next month. Ye Yunshu looked regretful, "I still have something to do in Fucheng, and I should be in Fucheng next month." ”

According to Ye Yunshu's plan, the shop in Fucheng will be repaired this month, and the decoration will be decorated, and the soap stock here in the workshop will be almost the same next month, and it can be opened directly.

Another one, it is really inconvenient for her to attend the banquet of the people in the village now, if she goes to this house and does not go to that house, she is afraid of being suspicious, and now the relationship with the people in the village, Ye Yunshu feels that it is not close or far, just right.
