Chapter 344 Nuobao gives advice
As a caring little cotton-padded jacket, little Nuobao sensed something was wrong and couldn't take care of the play.
So he stretched out his fat hand and poked Feng, "Mom, look at the second sister-in-law~"
After receiving the whisper from the lady, Feng turned around and saw that, as expected, the second daughter-in-law was not quite right.
Thinking that she was only concerned about making the eldest daughter-in-law happy these two days, leaving her in the cold, Feng hurried over to ask.
Li Qiqiao wanted to laugh after hearing this, but she was grateful to her mother-in-law for taking care of their emotions in this way.
She blushed and shook her head, "Mom, what are you thinking about? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child grabbing toys? The eldest sister-in-law finally gave birth to Dong Ge'er, and I can't wait to be happy for her."
"What are you doing?" Feng asked closer.
Li Qiqiao was depressed again, and then he said, "It's all about serving new dishes to Xianquanju."
"These few days I have been trying to cook new dishes according to the recipes. The main ingredients are all fine, but the side dishes are always missing one or two green leafy vegetables. It's so cold in the north, where can we get fresh vegetables? I tried and tried, but it's hard to get all the ingredients together, and it's not good after all." Li Qiqiao sighed.
After all, the recipes given by Mrs. Xiao are all exquisite dishes, the most presentable ones.
The ingredients required are of course luxurious, and each dish requires at least four or five kinds of meat and vegetables. If one is missing, it is not considered exquisite.
It is known that Li Qiqiao is a "serious" cook and will not tolerate fooling around.
Feng finally understood, "No wonder, mother has seen you study hard for many days, but except for the tofu skin buns, the new dishes are always delayed. It turns out that it's because of this."
Xiao Nuobao lay on his mother's lap and listened, blinking secretly.
His heart was itching.
In fact, there were fresh vegetables and fruits in her offerings.
But mother always didn't let him take them. After all, there were too many vegetables and fruits in the winter. It's okay to eat them at home.
But if he took them to Xianquanju and let the guests see them, they would definitely be curious.
A few words can't fool him, and if he can't explain it clearly, it will arouse suspicion.
Xiao Nuobao didn't want to see his second sister-in-law disappointed, but he had no choice but to step on tiger-head cotton shoes and run to the east room to see his eldest sister-in-law and Xiaodong.
I wanted to have some fun in the east room, but unexpectedly, Sun Chunxue had just fed Dong Ge'er.
I don't know if it was because she fed too well, but Sun Chunxue's "food" was very full. After feeding Dong Ge'er, there was still one bag of "food" left, which made her very uncomfortable.
Just then, Nuobao came. Sun Chunxue didn't even close her clothes, and smiled at little Nuobao.
"Nuobao, come quickly, sister-in-law has something delicious to drink, look!"
Little Nuobao stumbled, and when she looked up, she saw Sun Chunxue spread her clothes, pointed at the "food" on her chest, and grinned at her.
She was so scared that she quickly covered her eyes!
Wait, what did she see at sister-in-law?
Before she could respond, little Nuobao waved his little fleshy hands, turned his head, and ran away in fear, leaving a phantom in the air.
Although she was fed by her second sister-in-law when she first came home,
she couldn't stand it anymore. She was like a baby and licked "food" on adults.
Moreover, it was better if it was her mother and second sister-in-law.
But when it was her eldest sister-in-law, she felt uncomfortable all over.
Jiang Fengnian was sitting at the door, folding his diapers.
Seeing his sister running like a dog, he was stunned at first, then smiled with relief, "What happened? But it's good. Our Nuobao's short legs have grown up. When can he run so fast?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, little Nuobao ran without braking and ran into Yang Tianmei's arms, and then fell into the pig blood basin.
The women who were filling the blood intestines were stunned.
Then they laughed loudly, and hurriedly pulled out the "red-faced" little man.
"Nuobao fell into the blood basin, it's really unbelievable, your elder brother just finished talking, and you lost your chain." Mrs. Liu was holding the pig intestines and laughing.
Little Nuobao felt wronged, pouted, and fluttered his hands and feet unhappily.
Feng covered her face helplessly, came over and spanked her little butt, and took off the child's dirty clothes, and handed the rest to Xiao Lanyi, asking him to take it to the hot spring to wash it.
When they arrived at the hot spring, thanks to the fact that the guests were not in a hurry today, Yang Er was almost scared and hurriedly cut in line for the little guy.
After the clothes were taken off, Xiao Nuobao, wearing a small bellyband, jumped down like a big dumpling and had a good bath.
Xiao Lanyi was used to taking care of her, sometimes applying soap on her, sometimes combing her hair, and she was very familiar with it.
After a quarter of an hour, Xiao Nuobao finally washed off the stickiness and became a fresh and fragrant baby again.
"Hurry up, come up and change clothes, we have to go out, otherwise the guests who are scheduled to bathe in the hot spring at this time will be anxious." Xiao Lanyi was in a hurry, like an old mother.
Xiao Nuobao stuck out her tongue and splashed water all over him, then she stretched out her hand for him to pick up, and the "dumpling out of the pot" came.
The two packed up and put on warm cotton padded jackets. When they were about to leave Xianquan Cave, they suddenly heard a few male guests outside the cave chatting.
"What, you went to Xiacheng to take a hot spring bath two days ago. There are many foreigners there. I wonder how the hot springs are?"
"Tsk, compared to our Xianquan Residence, it's like heaven on earth. There's no comparison!"
"I guess so. Then why did you go there?"
"But you don't know that the owner of the hot spring has a greenhouse. Even in the middle of winter, you can still eat fresh vegetables. After taking a hot spring bath, you can eat some hot pot cabbage. I like that!" Hothouse
?
Fresh vegetables?
Xiao Nuobao's eyes lit up, and he quickly pulled Xiao Lanyi's sleeve, "What is a greenhouse?"
"It's built on the farm, and the outside is covered with paper. It can be used in winter to make the inside warm like spring, and grow off-season vegetables. In fact, we in the north should build greenhouses, but it's too expensive, so generally only rich people build them for their own enjoyment." Xiao Lanyi explained patiently.
When Xiao Nuobao heard this, an idea flashed in his little brain!
With a greenhouse as an excuse, she can also provide vegetables to her second sister-in-law in the future!
No need to worry about not being able to explain it clearly!
The little guy was very happy, so after returning home, he immediately took out a lot of fresh green vegetables from the offerings.
What about small Chinese cabbage, small chrysanthemum, celery, fresh mushrooms and carrots, all in two baskets.
Li Qiqiao was amazed at the vegetables in the yard, but after hearing her sister-in-law's words "they were bought from the greenhouse", she understood everything.
No matter how Nuobao got these vegetables.
Anyway, she made them, and she just told everyone that they were from the greenhouse, and it would be foolproof.
Li Qiqiao understood and smiled.
Soon, several new dishes were finally perfect, and they were sent to Xianquanju for tasting. As
soon as the guests tasted them, they clapped their hands and cheered, and the plates were cleared in the blink of an eye.
Li Qiqiao was happy, but soon, another problem came up.
These dishes were not farm dishes. They were delicate and complicated. Not only were they slow to make, but she was the only one who knew
how to make them. If they were put on the regular menu in the lobby, and the guests wanted to order them, then even if she was exhausted, she would not be able to finish making them.
Li Qiqiao thought about it and wanted to limit the time and quantity, so she would only cook for two tables a day.
Each table would have eight dishes and one soup, and the price would be thirty taels, which would be one thousand eight hundred taels in a month. When
this price came out,
the guests were immediately amazed!
After all, it was thirty taels, and even if they went to Qincaiju to enjoy it, it would be enough for three tables.
At first, everyone thought it was too expensive, and no one wanted to be the first buyer. Li Qiqiao did not intend to lower the price, because her cooking skills and the ingredients given by Nuobao were worth the price.
But soon, in the evening of that day, a classmate of Dean Wei rushed from Bohai City to take a hot spring bath.
This person is an expert in food. When he heard that there were rare and expensive dishes, he was eager to have them. He immediately took out thirty taels and bought a table!
In front of many guests, Dean Wei's classmate ate amazingly.
His eyes lit up, holding chopsticks in one hand and a wine glass in the other, tasting and laughing while commenting.
"Great, this is a Jiangnan expensive dish, only on the tables of noble families, but you can eat it in the north!"
"This is a Lu dish, mentioned by the literary giant Dongpo!"
"And this one, a famous dish from Shu!"
"Hahaha, good, while in the north, eat all over the south! Don't say thirty taels, one hundred taels is worth it, thank you host!"
While in the north, eat all over the south? The guests were so excited to see the delicious food on the table through the crack of the door that they couldn't bear to spend money. They took out their money and threw it on the counter, wanting to buy a table to eat!
Li Qiqiao smiled and shook her head, "It's already agreed that we will only serve two tables a day. It's too late today, so we won't prepare it. If you still want to eat, you can write down your name and pay the money. We'll make a reservation." Of course, everyone was happy. It's okay to make a reservation. The sooner you book, the sooner you can eat. So within half an hour, Li Qiqiao was surrounded by enthusiasm and received nearly a thousand taels of silver. Most of the food for half a month was booked out! The success of the new dishes and the new selling method made the whole family happy. They didn't go to bed until midnight, and chatted in the inner room. The oil lamp was almost burned out. Thinking that the door was not bolted, Feng asked Jiang Fenghu to go out and bolt it. Jiang Fenghu was wearing a thick jacket. As soon as he walked out of the house, he suddenly heard some movement outside the door. When he opened the door, he saw no one else, but Mu Yihan and the others who had returned! In the night, looking at the tall man in front of him, his body was still bloody and exuding a bloody smell. Jiang Fenghu was shocked, "Master, are you injured?"
