"Have a meal! That's not a simple matter! Boss Bao Xia is satisfied today!" Shen Yunxi patted her chest and said.
Leaving Xia Yifan alone to drink tea, Shen Yunxi and Mu Chenglin came to the kitchen.
"He doesn't understand your little thoughts!" Mu Chenglin reminded, "Never forget that he is a businessman!"
"Do you know him?" Shen Yunxi asked. Every time Mu Chenglin looked at Xia Yifan, there was respect in his eyes.
Mu Chenglin did not reply, but warned Shen Yunxi not to regard Xia Yifan as a friend.
When Shen Yunxi saw that Mu Chenglin did not answer him, he wisely did not continue to ask. Now he had to solve the problem of Xia Yifan's lunch.
Several batches of soybean paste have been prepared, and the dishes made with it taste more fragrant. I originally wanted to wait until winter to find Xia Yifan, but since he is here in person today, let's make some dishes with soybean paste!
Steamed pork ribs with soybean sauce, stir-fried meat with soybean sauce, stewed tofu with soybean sauce, and then use the oven to cook grilled fish. Perfect!
It was getting cold, so Shen Yunxi studied the tutorials on the "Pumpkin" video APP for several days, and finally made a fish cage, which saved Mu Chenglin from fishing in the water.
The fish cage has always been placed in a relatively hidden place by the river. When you want to eat fish, you can go and take a look. From time to time, you can catch a lot of big fish.
Mu Chenglin washed the fish and marinated it with seasonings. When the time was almost up, Shen Yunxi put the fish into the oven, and soon the aroma wafted out of the kitchen.
Xia Yifan moved his nose, with a clear smile on his face, and drank the osmanthus tea leisurely.
When she saw Xia Yifan before, Mu Mu felt that she looked familiar, but at that time Xia Yifan had a very low profile. Now Xia Yifan was drinking tea alone, Mu Mu finally recognized who he was!
She was a little nervous and a little helpless. Xia Country is so big, can't she escape from this circle after all?
Stir-frying with soybean paste is not much different from the previous recipe, except that there is more soybean paste and less salt, but the taste is more fragrant!
Xia Yifan did not use his chopsticks for the other dishes first. He was particularly curious about the grilled fish. The fish was grilled, but it was placed on a special iron dinner plate. There were many vegetables underneath. There was a There is a small stove with charcoal fire burning in the stove, so that the fish and vegetables are constantly heated, and the soup juice continuously penetrates into the ingredients.
This was the first time he had seen this way of eating. He took a bite. The fish was delicious, crispy on the outside and crispy on the inside. It was on par with pickled fish, sweet and sour fish, but it had a lot more vegetables inside.
As for the other dishes, Xia Yifan knew as soon as he tasted them that they were more delicious than the original ones, with an extra soft black bean.
Xia Yifan was very satisfied with this meal, and he knew that Shen Yunxi would never let him down at any time!
"I bought this fish recipe, and I also want this soybean paste!" Xia Yifan said, wiping his mouth gently with a white handkerchief.
Shen Yunxi shook his head, "The fish recipe is not sold for the time being! Soybean paste can be sold!"
"Why?" Xia Yifan was confused. Aren't all the recipes that Shen Yunxi brought out before sold?
"Because of this!" Shen Yunxi pointed to the stove, "The charcoal fire here not only allows the soup to continuously penetrate into the ingredients, but also has another function, which is to heat and keep it warm."
"So you want to sell it in winter?"
"Yes or no!" Shen Yunxi glanced at Mu Chenglin. Because Xia Yifan arrived suddenly, she didn't discuss it with Mu Chenglin in advance.
However, Mu Chenglin did not interrupt her and seemed to support any of her current ideas.
"I do plan to launch it in the winter, but I don't want to sell it!"
"So, you want to open your own store?" Xia Yifan still kept a smile on his face.
"Boss Xia is joking! I want to open a store, but not to introduce the same food as Boss Xia's restaurant! I want to cooperate with Boss Xia!"
Xia Yifan smiled and said nothing.
"In addition to grilled fish, there are other foods suitable for winter. Boss Xia is really not interested?" Shen Yunxi knew that Xia Yifan would not agree.
In winter, the business of all restaurants will be affected, because it is too cold, and people would rather hide at home and eat instead of running around!
But a grilled fish still couldn't move Xia Yifan's heart, but what if you added various hot pots?
The reason why I don’t want to talk to Xia Yifan now is because it’s not cold enough now. If it’s not cold enough, I won’t be able to taste that feeling. I won’t be able to impress Xia Yifan’s cold heart, and I won’t be able to negotiate a good price!
Xia Yifan smiled and said, "Looks like I'll have to wait until the weather gets cooler before I go again!"
"Don't worry, I will definitely satisfy Boss Xia and won't let you go in vain!" Shen Yunxi said, patting her chest.
"What about this soybean paste?" Xia Yifan asked tentatively.
"This soybean sauce, in addition to being used when cooking, can also be used as pickles when eating porridge. It tastes good when eating steamed buns!" Mu Chenglin took half a bowl of sauce from the sauce jar and handed it to Xia Yifan.
Xia Yifan dipped some of it into his chopsticks, tried it, and nodded, "Not bad!"
"This jar of sauce weighs two hundred kilograms. Boss Xia will give you fifty taels of silver!" Shen Yunxi said. She didn't forget that vinegar was sold cheaply. A jar of twenty taels of sweet-scented osmanthus brew changed hands in Xia Yifan's hands. Sell a pot for two taels of silver.
The process of making this soybean paste is not easy and takes a long time. After Xia Yifan pulls it back, he can not only cook it, but also package it into small jars and sell it!
So fifty taels is not expensive!
Xia Yifan smiled and shook his head. If he had known that he would not be so impatient. But fifty taels of silver for such a large vat is indeed not expensive.
Soybean paste is easy to store. If you are lucky enough to return to Beijing, it will definitely be popular!
"No problem! I'll take whatever amount of this soybean paste you have in the future!" Xia Yifan agreed directly, and this attitude made Shen Yunxi feel that she was at a disadvantage again!
After signing the agreement, Xia Yifan took away a few jars of sweet-scented osmanthus wine and left with satisfaction. Before leaving, he looked at Mu Chenglin meaningfully.
Mu Chenglin remained calm, Mu's mother became nervous, and only Shen Yunxi felt strange.
Is there any different magnetic field between these two people?
Such big things have happened in the Shen family these days. The scholar Shen Wenjun of the Shen family has been away from the beginning to the end. He has been living in a gentle village called Wanhua Pavilion in the town for many days!
Some time ago, Shen Wenjun went back and talked about Miss Jin. Mrs. Shen was very happy. Before leaving, she gave him forty taels of silver and asked him to buy some more gifts for Miss Jin.
Shen Wenjun held forty taels, feeling contempt in his heart. Who is Miss Jin? What gift can I buy for her with forty taels?
In order to win Miss Jin's heart, he went to the casino with forty taels and won one hundred taels of silver in one night.
Shen Wenjun felt that he was so powerful. The annual harvest from his family's more than 100 acres of land was only more than 100 taels, and he made so much money in just one night!
So he drifted off, and when he came out of the casino, he happened to meet several beautiful women dressed voluptuously.
It's not that Shen Wenjun has never been to Wanhua Pavilion before, but at most he only drank there and watched beauties dancing. He never dared to spend the night there, mainly because he was short of money.
He touched the one hundred and forty taels of silver around his waist and felt that now that he was rich and good at making money, how could he be worthy of himself if he didn't play a little?
But he underestimated his determination. After living for twenty years, he finally had a taste of women, and he actually lived in Wanhua Pavilion, talking about Miss Jin, Shen Xiujuan's wedding, and peeping at Mu Chenglin's recipes.
, he had long ago thrown it out of reach!
In the medical clinic in Lingyang Town, Old Mrs. Shen has been put under control. The town's Yamen police officers went to Shen's house and asked several children. As Shen Zhenyu's biological brother, Shen Zhenwen directly told what happened at that time.
He said it five to ten.
It is a certainty that Mrs. Shen deliberately harmed her grandson, who was a man of great honor, and wanted to blame the tenant farmers!
"This matter is your family matter at first glance, but since Shen Zhenyu is already a child, if you insist on filing a complaint, our Yamen will get involved in this matter," said the leading police officer.
Shen Dafu opened his mouth. Mrs. Li's eyes were red and swollen from crying. In this family, their eldest son has always been ignored.
Shen Zhenyu is her destiny son, the eldest son and eldest grandson. If he becomes a scholar in the future, he will not directly replace Shen Wenjun's position.
But who knew that the old lady would be so ruthless, using Shen Zhenyu's future in exchange for a little immediate benefit!
Li grabbed Shen Dafu's arm and was about to speak when Old Shen's gloomy voice came out, "Boss, wife, you have to think about it. There is a mother who sued her mother-in-law. What will happen to Shen Jiajia and Shen Zhenwen in the future?"
What will the day be like?”
Shen Jiajia on the side was originally very angry about this matter, but when Old Shen said this, she hesitated.
The first thing Shen Dafu and Li thought of was Shen Zhenwen. Shen Zhenwen was still young and could be raised from scratch, but Shen Zhenyu was already disabled. There was no need for them to give up their young son who had a future for a disabled son.
Seeing the hesitation of Mrs. Li and Shen Dafu, Shen Zhenyu closed his eyes in despair, and several detectives also exited the hospital.
Mrs. Shen is so arrogant again!
In the end, the Shen family returned the rent they had withheld from the tenant, and the tenant paid part of Shen Zhenyu's medical expenses, one tael of silver.
But Shen Zhenyu's wrist was comminuted and he needed to recuperate for a long time. Mrs. Shen was reluctant to spend money and asked the doctor at the medical center to prescribe medicine for him, and then had Shen Zhenyu dragged back home.
Old Mrs. Shen and Old Man Shen did not follow. They planned to go to the academy to find Shen Wenjun. They had not seen Shen Wenjun since the day of Shen Xiujuan's wedding. For several days, there was no news about Shen Wenjun. Old Mrs. Shen and Old Man Shen were inevitably a little worried.
.
"Wenjun must be very sad because Miss Jin married this bastard Cui Zixuan! But it's a done deal, it's useless for him to be sad!" Old Mrs. Shen said to Old Shen with a bit of hatred for iron.
Old Shen frowned, "Do you think Wen Jun lied to us about Miss Jin?"
Old Shen has long suspected that Mr. Jin's family is so rich, how could he fall in love with Shen Wenjun?
"How is it possible? Our Wenjun is no worse than Cui Zixuan! He is handsomer than Cui Zixuan, fairer and tenderer! He is also a scholar! The Cui family must have played a trick on it, snatched away Miss Jin, and let me show off
My son has become an equal wife!"
When she thought of this, Old Mrs. Shen was filled with hatred. The Cui family had robbed her wealthy daughter-in-law and not only made her baby daughter a baby.
Even when she returned home after three days, Shen Xiujuan did not come back. Old Mrs. Shen wanted to come to Cui's house to see her, but Old Shen dissuaded her.
This old man Shen and Mrs. Shen are still looking for Shen Wenjun. Shen Wenjun, who has already spent his money at Wanhua Pavilion, comes to the casino again.
At the back door of the casino, someone sneaked in. If you look carefully, you will find that this person is the waiter from Qingfeng Building.
Old man Shen and old lady Shen stood at the entrance of the academy for a long time without waiting for Shen Wenjun. They asked several students, and they all said that they had not seen Shen Wenjun in the past few days.
It was getting darker and darker, and Old Man Shen and Mrs. Shen, who had not eaten at noon, had no choice but to go home first.
When Shen Zhenyu was brought back, the story about Mrs. Shen destroying her eldest grandson in order to blackmail the tenant farmers spread throughout Qingmu Village.
As sons and daughters-in-law, Shen Dafu and Li couldn't do anything to the two old people openly, but now that they were both away from home, it was not up to them to decide how the rumors would spread.
Neither Shen Lao Er nor Shen Lao San stopped him. When others asked, they sighed secretly.
How could they not know that Shen Zhenyu's fate might be their fate tomorrow? Mrs. Shen would do anything for Shen Wenjun!
As night fell, Shen Yunxi secretly drank a few sips of Otaku's Fairy Water, then hid in Mu's new quilt and fell asleep comfortably.
Except for the big room, everyone else in the Shen family was snoring loudly.
As for Shen Wenjun in the gambling house, life was not so easy!
When he came this time, he didn't even have any capital. He first asked the casino to borrow twenty taels at usury, but lost, and borrowed another twenty taels, and lost again!
Now he has borrowed a total of one hundred taels. When dawn comes, it will be two hundred taels including interest!
Shen Wenjun started to panic!
He couldn't figure out why the direction of the dice was out of his control today, even though he had calculated well before.
It must be this group of people!
Shen Wenjun was not convinced and was going to settle the score with the people in the casino, but what kind of place was the casino? How could he, a weak scholar with no power, compare to these thugs in the casino?
Just like that, Shen Wenjun was thrown out and thrown on the street, his whole body was in such a mess!
The casino has given him a deadline to come up with two hundred taels of silver within seven days, otherwise his legs will be removed!
Shen Wenjun got up and walked tremblingly on the street.
It was still very cold in the autumn night. He curled up his arms shivering and walked like this until he reached the door of Wanhua Pavilion again.
In the Wanhua Pavilion, beauties in brightly dressed clothes were soliciting customers at the door. Shen Wenjun looked over and saw that there were several beauties who had served him in the past few days.
As he approached, the beauties were very happy to see him, and Shen Wenjun felt warm in his heart.
But when they saw Shen Wenjun's embarrassed look clearly, they all rolled their eyes and continued to attract other customers.
Shen Wenjun has never been so despised by anyone, especially these women. A few days ago, they called him "Shen Lang". Now that they see him in despair, they are not even willing to give him a straight face!
Isn't it just money? He Shen Wenjun still can't get it?
