Chapter 192: Luo Bu

"It's not hard, it's not hard." Yun Huachun said with a cheerful face.

Nantong is great.

Especially after his family got rich, he planted some fruits from all over the country.

The quantity is currently not as good as the fruit supermarkets of later generations, but he dares to say that there is no place in the whole of Dajin with a richer variety of fruits than his!

"Grandpa, please try this dish! The dried fruit here is said to be a rich fruit. My family calls it pepper. I grow a lot of it. I put some in it for cooking and stewing. After eating, the blood vessels will be smoothed and the whole body will feel comfortable! Try it

Give it a try!" Yun Huachun introduced.

After hearing this, Yun Huiyan reached out and took out his chopsticks and picked up a small piece of dried chili pepper.

"Grandpa, you eat chicken!" Yun Huachun moved his chopsticks and gave Yun Huiyan a piece of diced chicken with cartilage.

"You can only eat these peppers when they are freshly grown and they are tender fruits. You cannot eat the dried ones. They are just to add some spiciness to the vegetables!"

"Just like onions and garlic, you eat this chicken."

After Yun Huiyan heard this, he picked up the chicken pieces that his grandson handed to him in the bowl.

He took a bite and found that it was indeed very spicy. It was different from the spiciness of ginger, but more of a fragrance.

Several teenagers in the family looked away from the plates and looked at each other.

Isn’t this dried rich fruit for eating?

Only eat chicken, right?

Then they had just endured the pain and ate several.

"Come on, you're welcome, eat quickly!" Yun Huachun shouted.

After knowing that dried chili peppers are not meant to be eaten directly, the young men were not so resistant to the dishes on the table.

After finishing the bowl of noodles, everyone soaked in hot water and went to bed.

Lying on the bed, covered with a quilt of the same thickness as usual, and no charcoal fire on the stove, why is it so much warmer than usual?

Tired, the young men didn't think much and just lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

The mastermind behind the scenes has never been caught, but the White Dragon Envoy has raided many people's homes in recent days. It is said that there are so many people in the prison that they can't even squeeze in.

Even so, the wind and snow in Beijing never stopped.

Yun Huachun stayed in his yard, reading books and cooking when he had nothing to do, as if he was living a retirement life.

He taught the wife in the kitchen how to smoke bacon chicken and duck, and then filled some sausages in a bamboo tube himself.

The kitchen in the backyard of Yun Mansion was made very lively.

In the Imperial Palace, Guangmian Hall.

"This guy cooks different dishes every day. He seems to be a good cook. He only made one snack for me, which is really an advantage for him!" After listening to the report of the people below, the Supreme Emperor twirled his beard and said.

"If the Emperor likes it, why not call the baron into the palace and ask him to cook for the Emperor?" Zhong Da said with a smile.

"Huh, you're coaxing me again." After saying that, he sighed.

"I heard from the White Dragon Envoy that Nantong is a good place. When that boy goes back to the south, you should go with him. It is a place to recuperate."

The gentle smile on Zhong Da's face faded a bit, he bent down and bowed his head in salute.

"The Emperor's body has not recovered yet, how dare I leave first?"

"Come on, there are many servants in this palace, and one less than you is a lot. If you pick any one, they will be more satisfied than you, and they won't talk back to you."

"You can take care of Xia Gu's great-granddaughter when you go south. If you really don't want to, Gu will decree that you become a godfather to this boy, and he won't be able to get rid of you!" Changsun Jing said, blowing his beard.

After saying this, he took a breath.

"The princess is already sensible and can take care of herself. The only one I can't worry about is you, the Supreme Emperor..." Zhong Da lowered his head and said sincerely.

"Okay, I don't want to hear this. After all, you have the blood of the Changsun family. After being a slave for decades, you really think you have the fate of being a slave, right?"

"Go if Gu tells you to go. Gu is the biggest in this palace, so listen to Gu!"

Nantong Mansion, Yun Family.

Yuntao and her mother discussed buying new year's goods.

This year is different from the past. Even though her father is gone, there are so many children in the yard who don't go home, and they always have to prepare food and toys for the children.

During the Chinese New Year, apart from the lucky money, they also get new clothes.

Wan Hongmei asked a skilled embroiderer from Nantong City to make two new outfits for several children.

The fabric is not that expensive, and the color chosen according to personal taste is considered a lucky draw for the New Year.

Several brothers from the Guan family, together with Accountant Zhou and their two children, also prepared gifts.

There is no need to buy the rest of the chickens. I raise a lot of them in my backyard, and there are also fruits stored in the cellar.

Beef and mutton are in short supply, so buying some snacks and dried fruits is about the same.

Since there are no classes these days, several children gathered at Yun's house to play together.

Seeing Sister Yun and Mistress working, I took the initiative to help.

Wan Hongmei said she wanted to go to the cellar to take a look and pull out some things. Several children wanted to follow her, except Xiang Bocai.

Because there are insects in the cellar, he is afraid of them.

"Sister Yun, is there anything else you need my help with?" Xiang Bocai asked.

Yuntao looked at the backs of several children carrying baskets and leaving happily, and thought about it for a while.

"What do you want to eat? Let's make a menu."

"Okay, okay, I have a lot of things I want to eat, braised fish cubes, braised lion's head, fried pork slices..." Xiang Bocai quickly announced more than a dozen dish names without pausing.

"Stop, I'm not asking you to order food. Let's buy some meat and cook it ourselves."

“I’ll just buy a few dozen kilograms of it, and then I’ll buy it again after the New Year.”

"Let me tell you, please help me remember it." Yuntao said, taking out a pen and paper, wanting to practice Xiang Bocai.

Xiang Bocai nodded happily.

When it comes to eating, no one is better than him.

"Beef, let's buy sixty pounds first."

"Pork, eighty pounds."

"As for fish, buy fifteen. If you buy fresh ones, you can keep them in the tank."

"...The garlic is gone, buy ten pounds of it."



Yuntao spoke slowly, remembering whatever came to mind.

When she had finished speaking, Wan Hongmei came back from outside carrying a basket of chestnuts. There were a lot of peanuts in the small baskets in the hands of several children.

"I dug some chestnuts and peanuts, and I'll fry some to eat." Wan Hongmei said.

Chestnuts and peanuts are stored in the cellar in autumn and are still fresh.

"You go and play with yourself first. Remember to come and eat the chestnuts when they are fried!" Yuntao yelled.

Xiang Bocai put down his paper and pen and ran out of the main room, running in the direction where the other classmates left.

"Mom, I just calculated the things I want to buy. Do you think it's okay? I've also included Grandpa Zhou and the others." Yuntao said, picking up the paper and taking a look.

Suddenly he burst out laughing.

"Why are you laughing?" Wan Hongmei looked at her daughter suspiciously.

Yuntao laughed loudly and handed over the piece of paper Xiang Bocai had written on.

I saw a crooked row of words written on the white paper.

Beef? ??Sixty pounds

Zhurou? ? Eighty pounds

The remaining fifteen articles

Calculation? ? Ten pounds

Luo Bu? ? Twenty pounds

"Hey, this kid must have been lazy a lot in class on weekdays." Wan Hongmei said with a smile.

Although several children study in the same classroom, their learning progress is completely different.
