Chapter 105 Service Must Keep Up
The second master spent money so lavishly...
Well, I’m afraid that after he returns to the capital from Hedong this time, his task of collecting debts will be even more difficult.
Maybe he will even have to shoulder the important task of urging the shop managers to run the shops well, so that the shops can make more money for the Second Master and maintain the dignity that he deserves.
But then again...
Second Master, Second Master, Miss Su is about to start a business and make a lot of money. Can she really look down on a person like you who is just a nobody? Xing'an couldn't help but shook his head when he thought of this, feeling that his Second Master was too righteous and generous.
After dinner, Su Yujin took out a bag of herbs and smiled attentively, "Second Master has been tired recently. This is the medicinal bath bag I made myself. Put two in your bath when you take a bath. It will relieve your fatigue."
After receiving the banknote from the Second Master, the service must be up to par!
"Okay." He Yanxiu told Xing'an to accept it.
Looking at Su Yujin's smile which was obviously becoming sweeter and the fragrant medicinal bath bag in her hand, Xing'an touched his nose.
It seemed like he had to take back what he had said earlier.
Miss Su seemed to like these three melons and two dates, and she enjoyed eating them very much.
The next morning, Su Yujin got up early and prepared a hearty breakfast for He Yanxiu.
Omelet made of ham, diced carrots, chopped green onions and eggs; bite-sized wontons with thin skin and large fillings of fresh meat; rice balls made of cabbage stalks, diced carrots, egg yolks and minced meat, plus some cold vegetables and refreshing pickles.
Worried that a grown man like He Yanxiu would not feel full after getting up early, Su Yujin made some scallion oil hot pancakes, stuffed them with minced meat from the soft and fragrant stewed meat, and made a simple version of roujiamo.
After He Yanxiu got up, he looked at the table full of food, all of which were delicious and attractive. He immediately felt hungry. After washing up, he had breakfast with Su Yujin.
After having eaten many tasteless breakfasts made in the small kitchen in the backyard of Tianfu Yamen, He Yanxiu felt refreshed when he ate the breakfast made by Su Yujin himself.
"How have you been feeling these days, Master?" Su Yujin asked. "How has your sense of taste recovered?"
"About 30%." He Yanxiu said, "I can taste most of the flavors. If the flavor is lighter, I may not be able to taste it, but I feel that it is very good."
At least you can tell what's delicious and what's not.
"Originally, the last acupuncture session will be tomorrow. Why not give Second Master the acupuncture first? After this session, you won't need to have acupuncture again. But you still have to drink this decoction three times a day for another month or so."
Su Yujin said, "We'll see how effective it is then and see if we can switch to a pill that I can take once a day."
Pills are easy to carry and simple to take, and she doesn't have to keep an eye on them every day.
In the future, if the Second Master really needs to go out for official business, she doesn't have to follow him all the time. She can focus on managing her own businesses in Qinghe.
"Yeah." He Yanxiu had no idea what Su Yujin was thinking, so he just nodded in agreement and continued to eat the tender and delicious egg rolls, and then scooped up a few small wontons with thin skin and large fillings.
The wonton soup is made from pork bones and chicken racks, and is also topped with dried shrimps and scallion oil, making it delicious and fragrant.
He Yanxiu suddenly remembered the bowl of wontons he had eaten when he passed by Qinghe County last year.
Those were wontons that Su Yujin secretly sold at a stall because he was short of money. They also had thin skin and large fillings. Even though he had no sense of taste at the time, he knew that bowl of wontons tasted very good.
A year later, when I ate this bowl of wontons again, I could already taste the true beauty of these delicious wontons.
He Yanxiu couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion in his heart, and glanced at Su Yujin who was also eating wontons with gusto.
In fact, it was after that bowl of wontons that he got to know this mistress who he had originally intended to use as a shield again. After years of getting along with her, she became more and more special.
"What are you looking at, Second Master?" Su Yujin noticed He Yanxiu's gaze and asked.
"Nothing." He Yanxiu held the bowl higher to block his sight. "I was just thinking, these wontons and dumplings are both meat-filled and wrapped in flour, but when you eat them, the taste is completely different."
"Of course. If it is steamed, it can be made into siomai with a different taste." Su Yujin paused, "Speaking of siomai, it seems that I have never made it for you, so I will make it for you tomorrow morning."
"Okay." He Yanxiu nodded in agreement.
It's worth spending the two hundred taels of silver!
After breakfast, Su Yujin gave He Yanxiu acupuncture and instructed Ai Cao and Qing Kui to go to the small kitchen to prepare the ingredients and the preliminary preparations for the copper pot hot pot.
After the acupuncture is completed, we start making fish balls.
Take the middle part of fresh grass carp, peel and debone it, chop it with the back of a knife, add various seasonings and start beating it vigorously to increase the elasticity of the minced fish. When the fish paste is chewy enough, use a round spoon to roll it into a ball shape, put it in cold water, boil it over high heat, then remove it and set aside.
When you are ready to eat, put the almost cooked fish balls into a copper pot and simmer over low heat, allowing the delicious flavor of the fish balls to gradually seep into the bottom of the pot.
You don’t need to dip it in any sauce when eating it. It is chewy, springy, tender and delicious. If you scoop a spoonful of the fragrant fish ball soup, you will feel the deliciousness of fish meat in your mouth.
Because the copper pot hot pot this time uses soup made from fish bones as the base, fish balls have become the protagonist of the day, and He Yanxiu likes fish balls more than hand-cut lamb.
He ate most of the fish balls on the plate and even had a bowl of mung bean and multi-grain noodles made by Su Yujin.
Su Yujin also felt that the fish balls in the copper pot tasted really good, and she ate a lot more than usual.
Even mugwort, green sunflower and Xing'an enjoyed the feast.
Ai Cao and Qing Kui usually satisfied their appetites, so they thought it was very normal. However, Xing An was so excited when he ate such delicious fish balls that he almost cried.
He really misunderstood the Second Master in the past.
No wonder the Second Master is always so generous to Miss Su.
If he could eat such delicious food every day, he would even take out all his own private storage!
It seemed that after he returned to the capital, he would have to help the Second Master urge the shopkeepers and managers who were in charge of the Second Master's properties to stand up and try their best to make more money.
If he could earn more money, the second master would have enough money for himself.
With sufficient private funds, the Second Master could continue to be generous to Miss Su.
The Second Master was very generous, and once Miss Su was happy, she would make more delicious food.
Therefore, urging those people to earn money is equivalent to delicious food! This logic is not wrong! After enjoying a hearty lunch with satisfaction, He Yanxiu, who was resting and reading in the room in the afternoon, was thinking about what to eat in the evening.
But at this moment, Qu Zhiwen came hurriedly and said that something happened at the mine.
I want to eat fish balls...
