Chapter 155 Rewarding according to merit



Chapter 155 Rewarding

according to merit He was overthinking it.

Su Yujin peeled the shrimp shells skillfully, put the shrimp into her mouth and chewed slowly. Seeing He Yanxiu in a daze, she asked, "Second Master, why don't you eat anymore?"

"But your wrist feels a little uncomfortable when you eat?"

He Yanxiu came back to his senses and said, "No, I'm done eating."

I felt relieved.

I knew it. As a doctor, Su Yujin would still care about the injured person.

Second Master, have you finished your meal? Su Yujin looked at the remaining half of the three-juice stew pot and was delighted.

They are all hers, no one will snatch them away from her, so she can eat them slowly.

He Yanxiu wiped his mouth with a towel and rinsed his mouth, then called Xing'an to bring the wooden box over. "The matter of Hedong Prefecture was handled properly this time. The emperor was very happy and gave some rewards. You also worked very hard this time and contributed a lot. These are yours."

Whether it was poisoning or mine collapse, it was all thanks to her timely rescue.

Su Yujin thought that he had done a good job, so he did not refuse and took it. "Thank you, Second Master."

As he spoke, he opened the box and looked inside.

There were six golden ingots, each weighing ten taels. If converted into silver, that would amount to six hundred taels.

Su Yujin smiled with curved eyebrows, "Thank you, Second Master."

Thank you twice in succession.

He Yanxiu felt that it was absolutely right for him to ask for some money from his mother.

"It's all your credit. You deserve it." He Yanxiu said with a smile.

Su Yujin paused for a moment, thought for a while, and then asked hesitantly, "Then the next time you go out on business, why don't you take me with you?"

Su Yujin gained a lot from this trip to Hedong.

A good friend, a cash cow who became a partner, and many rewards from He Yanxiu, it can be said that he made a lot of money.

Su Yujin still wants such an opportunity.

He Yanxiu, "..."

"Okay, fine."

"Thank you, Second Master!"

After lunch, Su Yujin prescribed another decoction and a plaster for He Yanxiu, and asked Ai Cao to bring back the medicine and boil and grind it according to the prescription.

With the experience of grinding medicinal powder to make plasters last time, Su Yujin was familiar with the process this time. She made several plasters in an afternoon and sealed them with oil paper.

In the evening, Su Yujin asked Ai Cao and Mother Liu to clean the crabs carefully.

There are two large baskets of crabs, all of which are alive and should be eaten while they are fresh.

Considering that storage conditions were limited at that time, and that crabs would become thin and unpalatable if left for too long, Su Yujin took a basket of crabs to Huibinlou and Suji and divided them up respectively, and left this basket for a few people in the yard to eat.

Authentic hairy crabs are large in size, weighing about half a pound each, and most of them are female.

Su Yujin looked at the quantity and made a simple classification.

In the evening we cooked steamed hairy crabs and salt-baked hairy crabs, and the staple food was noodles mixed with lard and crab roe.

Early the next morning, breakfast consisted of steamed dumplings stuffed with crab meat, crab roe and crab roe fried in lard, served with crab meat porridge and some delicious cold dishes.

At noon, Su Yujin washed the few remaining crabs, peeled off the inedible parts, split them into several pieces, and made spicy crabs...

He Yanxiu ate heartily and even sucked his fingers while eating without caring about his image.

When everyone saw this, they felt relieved.

If the Second Master, a young master from a noble family, behaves like this, then isn't it normal for them to do this?

After all, the most important thing about eating this spicy food, which needs to be torn by hand, is sucking your fingers.

The spicy crabs were delicious, but everyone felt a little disappointed.

The portion was too small! After eating the spicy crab, Xing'an and Ai Cao were secretly thinking about whether they should go to the street to buy some more crabs.

It is August now, and crabs are in their plump season. Even though the crabs bought on the street are not as big as the ones He Yanxiu found, they are still of good quality and can still be eaten.

Although crabs are delicious, they are somewhat cold and not suitable for eating every day.

After thinking for a while, Su Yujin asked Ai Cao and Mother Liu to help her knead the dough.

It is not the dough used to make ordinary noodles, but the dough made by using leftover white rice, adding salt, five-spice powder, chili powder, flour, sweet potato starch, etc., mixing evenly and adding egg liquid.

The dough is rolled out flat, creased, cut into strips, steamed, dried, and stir-fried evenly in chili oil which is mainly composed of chili powder, five-spice powder, cumin powder, pepper powder, white sesame seeds, salt, sugar, etc.

After the wide "noodles" had cooled down, Su Yujin shared some with everyone to taste.

It has a bright red color and smells fragrant, which really whets people's appetite.

But, is this really better than spicy crab?

Is there really anything in this world that tastes better than spicy crab?

With such doubts, everyone put the food prepared by Su Yujin into their mouths.

The spicy and fragrant taste bursts in your mouth and goes straight to your head, making you addicted. You can't stop eating it. After eating one, you will pick up another one.

When the food is too spicy, I gulp down a bowl of cold water...

Cool! There are actually things that taste better than spicy crab.

He Yanxiu also enjoyed the meal, but because he was taking medicine, he couldn't eat much and only got a small piece.

He was so reluctant to eat it that he just tore it into small strips and asked Su Yujin, "What kind of food is this? It tastes so good."

"Spicy noodles." Su Yujin replied.

Spicy strips?

It is spicy and delicious, shaped like noodles, and really lives up to its name.

He Yanxiu then happily ate the only small piece of spicy strips he had.

Because of his wrist and rib injuries, He Yanxiu had to stay in Qinghe for more than ten days. He thought that it was not a serious illness and he did not need Su Yujin to watch over him every day. He Yanxiu let her just take care of her own things on weekdays.

Seeing this, Su Yujin didn't bother to be polite with He Yanxiu. She just went to the farm according to her own plan to check the current situation of the farm.

Niu Dali was very happy to see his boss again after more than half a year. He took Su Yujin home and entertained him warmly.

"Everything is going well on the farm. This year's wheat harvest is good. There was no heavy rain before the wheat harvest, so each acre yielded several dozen kilograms more than last year. After the wheat harvest, it rained twice more, and the moisture in the ground was enough, just right for autumn planting."

"This year we mainly planted corn, soybeans, cotton and so on. For those lands far from the well and not so good, we planted some sweet potatoes. They are growing well now. If the weather continues like this, we will have a good harvest this year."

"Yes, I have asked the people in the village to sort out the things that the master reminded me of last time according to the master's instructions."

I have to go to work tomorrow. I am both happy and unhappy...

Of course, if there are a lot of tickets, I think I will be very happy.
