Cute Beauty’s Romantic Affairs - C133
Wu Sinan didn’t say anything after seeing Jiaoniang’s positive guess. He fiddled with the tofu skewers in his bowl. That Zhu Zixiu was a man with a broad mind and wide eyes. The goods he wanted to bring in from the city was just a pretense, in reality, the things he wanted to bring in were transported from the city to the city, and then from the city to Qingyuan County.
He estimated that there would be around a hundred thousand stones worth of food, such as salt or medicinal herbs.
These things were also discovered by the Wu Family’s fleet. There were people from the Zhu Family active in every city, and they would get some things from every place, but not many things. Logically speaking, Qingyuan County was not a small place with such a high rate of consumption, but it was understandable for merchants to hoard goods.
If Wu Sinan hadn’t known about the oddity of this place from the Qingyuan County, he probably wouldn’t have noticed it. Wu Sinan was certain that the big hand behind the Zhu Family was definitely a member of the imperial court, and as for which one, he was not sure.
Jiaoniang was not in the whirlpool, but she could feel the unusual wind.
They were in a hurry to get their hands on the beaches, hurry up to active the Qingyuan County market, and fight for some food from the hands of these landwyrms. Now that the road had been repaired and they had established a good relationship with the big families in the city, all that was left was a few words from Zhu Zixiu to bring back the beach.
Jiaoniang had also thought about this matter in the restaurant. She didn’t know much about architecture, and Ji Dahe and the others only had hands-on experience. They also didn’t know anything about design. What Jiaoniang wanted was not only a restaurant, but also a restaurant that could be used as a representative for Qingyuan County and face.
On the stage, there was no talk of a break. When there was a break to pick up the big burden, there were apprentices who would go up to chat and sing, making people laugh.
Jiaoniang was not greedy for money. She put the stall aside for the villagers to take a look at. She also packed up and prepared to go home for lunch.
Wu Sinan knew that Jiaoniang would definitely prepare a lot of delicious food for him if she had something to ask of him.
Wang Meihua listened to Jiaoniang’s instructions and looked at the pot on the stove in the middle of the morning. In the pot were some wild grouse stewed with spices and mushrooms that came back from the mountains, cooking for a few hours. The soup was rich and sweet, which made Wu Sinan feel like the food he had eaten in the morning was just foam and disappeared with a puff of his breath. Habit
A lot of people in the yard were used to Wu Sinan’s uninvited attribute. The children who loved to watch the fun all went to the theatre, and the others all had a pile of work to do. Before Wu Sinan came, Wang Meihua was in the yard watching the chicken soup.
After asking Wu Sinan to keep an eye on the children and not fall off, Wang Meihua went to clean up the ingredients needed for the “hotpot”.
Needless to say, these were all things that Jiaoniangxin had dug up. In order to coax Wu Sinan, the foodie, into a pirate ship, Jiaoniang had to spend more than 10% of her time to get Ye Xuan to catch silver fish in the mountains. She had to make some silver fish into fish meatballs, and also a few chickens that were almost grown up.
Although her family was well-off and did not lack meat to eat, Wang Meihua still felt that her daughter was too wasteful. She couldn’t help but mutter Wu Sinan, “How are you trying to coax me? It’s enough even to coax immortals.”
Jiaoniang didn’t know how to explain to her mother that there was a dish of eggplant in Red Mansion Dream. Grandma Liu was astonished after eating it, thinking that it was not the taste of eggplant. When she found out what the eggplant was doing, she was even more surprised. Poverty could restrict people’s imagination. Even though Wu Sinan was still amiable and could not tell what kind of rich kids he was, the fact that he could casually throw out 20 taels of silver to reward those who tried to please him showed how wealthy he was.
Since Jiaoniang intended to curry favor with him, even if she knew that it was impossible for her to do so, she at least had to put on an act on the surface to let him know that she was diligent.
When Jiaoniang returned home, Wang Meihua had already prepared all the ingredients, and the fragrance from the jar was almost enough to overturn people. Jiaoniang asked Cheng Huanzhong to go into the warehouse to bring out the round table and place the bottom of the pot in the middle. At this time, there was no alcohol pot, so Jiaoniang spent a lot of effort to create a pot that could add carbon. The territory was huge, so she couldn’t adjust the size of the fire.
Wu Sinan had never seen such a way of eating before. There was a bunch of people around the round table, restless children, mud-legged men in patched clothes, and a pig-raising man whose body faintly emitted a pig odor. God knows Cheng Huanzhong knew he had to eat with him. He had showered early and changed into clothes only for the new year. Yet, he was still rejected in such a way.
The surroundings of the hotpot were filled with various dishes, including the venison that had been sliced into thin slices, the vegetables that were green and glistening, as well as various types of mountain fungi and white pills. Jiaoniang called for everyone to put the dishes into the pot. There weren’t many spoons, just one. Whoever caught it would get it.
In addition to these, everyone else had a plate of soy sauce in front of them, which was Jiaoniang’s best taste based on the combination of the most delicious hotpot soy sauce used in the future and the ingredients possessed by this era. At the beginning, Wu Sinan was a little unwilling, and even a little angry at Jiaoniang for being so rude to him.
It was not only his first time eating hotpot alone, but it was also the first time for the rest of the family. It was hot and refreshing to eat hotpot in the middle of the summer, so they could only muster up their courage to eat since Wu Sinan was present.
Everyone at the table had finished all the dishes. The charcoal in the hotpot was still burning, and the soup was almost dried up.
Wu Sinan licked his lips as if he wanted to continue, “Do you have more dishes?”
His whole body was drenched in heat. His sweaty hair was all messed up on his face. His red lips and white teeth looked pretty good. Unfortunately, everyone present was a coarse person and didn’t understand how to appreciate them.
At this moment, Tieh Dan ran over from his seat and approached Jiaoniang, “Sis, can I have an ice cream?”
The ice cream that Tieh Dan mentioned was a new invention that Jiaoniang had developed. Fresh milk, together with eggs, was put into the freezer in the freezer. The prepared peach paste was poured onto the crushed ice, then squeezed into a bit of ice-cold cream.
Previously, Jiaoniang was afraid that Tieh Dan and co. would eat too much, so she only allowed them to eat one every three days.
Wu Sinan had sharp ears. When he heard what Tieh Dan wanted to eat, he immediately became interested, “What ice cream? Give me one too. ”
Jiaoniang smiled. She was afraid that he wouldn’t want one of them. After eating her ice cream, he wouldn’t reject her so easily.
