Chapter 604 Basic Skills
Su Ruoyun listened to these words and said with a smile: "In our restaurant, the most popular vegetarian dish is spicy and sour shredded potatoes.
"Many old customers who come to our restaurant must order the hot and sour potato shreds. When they feel tired of other dishes, they will eat this dish and feel refreshed."
“Even though the weather is a little cold now, everyone still likes to eat it.”
This is the truth.
"Luckily, Third Aunt has a lot of potatoes, so we can buy directly from her."
Of course, Su Ruoyun also has her own farm, which has potatoes and sweet potatoes, and she can use them directly.
Both can greatly save costs.
While we were talking, the waiter brought the spicy and sour potato shreds.
When he was in the capital, Lu Yechen had eaten potato dishes and also had the spicy and sour potato shreds made by the imperial chef with the emperor, but those potato shreds were not as thin as this one.
It's sliced very thinly and tastes very good.
Lu Yechen's eyes lit up, "Delicious!"
Although the hot and sour potato shreds made in the Royal Kitchen are delicious, after eating here, I feel that this is the authentic taste.
Xiao Yueyao said, "I remember I wrote down a few potato recipes for His Majesty, including spicy and sour potato shreds. They should taste good."
Lu Yechen explained: "The food cooked in the imperial kitchen is also delicious, but not as good as here."
"The taste isn't that different, maybe a little different, but a little different is still a difference."
In fact, Lu Yechen didn’t care about food before, he just thought that as long as he was full, it was enough.
But after living in the Su family last year, my taste has really become picky.
Furthermore, as a commander trusted by the emperor, he is loyal to the emperor. Perhaps it is because he is acquainted with Brother Su and Xiao Yueyao, or perhaps it is because his father is loyal to the emperor, so the emperor's attitude towards him is also particularly unusual.
Sometimes when I have something delicious, I will think of him.
There are two kinds of food in his house: potatoes and sweet potatoes.
It's just that he's not very good at cooking.
The food cooked by the chef in the kitchen is naturally average.
So I came here to have such a meal in the restaurant, and I really thought it was delicious.
Of course, the meals we had at the Su family these days were also delicious.
No wonder so many people come here to play and see. I have to say, this place is really great.
It makes people feel that they don’t want to leave.
Not to mention that the academies opened by Su Xueyi and Xiao Yueyao are well-known far and wide.
Su Ruoyun was also happy when Lu Yechen said it was delicious.
Of course, she is happy when every customer who comes to the restaurant says the food is delicious.
Although the Chinese New Year is coming soon, the restaurant is really busy.
Maybe many people have returned to Jiangzhou from other places, or maybe it is the end of the year and everyone is not too busy, so they will take their friends to the restaurant for dinner.
Or maybe some families come out to eat something delicious.
Or maybe someone comes to buy something and comes to eat at mealtime.
The dock is bustling, and the restaurant is bustling.
Xiao Lenghan felt sorry for Su Ruoyun and would take time out to help because he was a little too busy.
Just as Lu Yechen was eating, he suddenly noticed the young man not far away.
“Huh!”
Lu Yechen showed a puzzled look.
But he just took a quick look and didn't look at it again.
Because this is Su Ruoyun's restaurant, it is very impolite to stare at the waiter.
Besides, if there was any problem, Su Xueyi would definitely know, so he didn't need to worry about it.
After they had their fill, they also went to the academy to take a look.
Although the academy is on vacation now, there are still people on duty, so they took Lu Yechen on a tour.
When he came out, Lu Yechen also saw the buildings of two other schools not far away.
"These two schools...is this a girls' college?"
Lu Yechen was surprised to see the girls' academy.
Yes, when passing by here, Lu Yechen saw the name of the academy.
Xiao Yueyao explained, "Well, after this academy is built, we will be preparing to enroll female students."
"Teach girls to read and write, learn embroidery, cooking, woodworking, carving, nursing, medicine, etc., so that everyone can have a skill to rely on."
Although women could not study and take the imperial examinations, they could still acquire an additional skill.
This is also what Xiao Yueyao wants to do.
Just like when she was in Jingye Zhuangzi in the capital, she also held a study class in her house, teaching everyone accounting, reading and medicine.
Actually, when I think about it now, it was also a small academy.
The layout of the women's college is similar to that of Zhengde College. It also has a library, canteen, dormitory, etc. The environment is also very good, which makes it convenient for girls to eat well and rest well in the college.
Xiao Yueyao briefly told Lu Yechen about the women's academy.
Lu Yechen became more and more excited.
"After such an academy is established, families that value girls will surely arrange for their daughters to study there."
Lu Yechen attaches great importance to reading.
Xiao Yueyao smiled and said, "I don't teach music, chess, calligraphy, or painting here, I only teach some basic skills."
In Xiao Yueyao's opinion, there is indeed nothing wrong with noble families teaching music, chess, calligraphy and painting. They can cultivate women's sentiments and hone their talents and abilities.
But her original intention of opening a girls' academy was to enable some girls from poor families to learn an additional skill.
Even if you know a skill, such as embroidery, you can support yourself.
Opening a workshop in Liuhe Village made her understand a truth more clearly, that is, when a woman has the ability and the ability to make money, she will be valued by her family.
It will also improve their status in the family.
So the workshop she opened here can be used by both men and women as long as they are capable.
Of course she would rather hire some women to do the work.
Unless some heavy work is impossible, we can hire some men to do it.
After listening to Xiao Yueyao's words, Lu Yechen admired her even more.
"Has the academy opened yet?"
Shen Yueyao said: "Not yet. After the New Year and the first month of the lunar year, we will officially open and enroll students."
"We will also invite some female teachers to teach at that time."
They all teach girls. The environment and benefits are good. I believe some talented and capable women will come to teach.
She asked her subordinates to compile a document.
At that time, she will personally invite some people to teach at the women's college.
Of course, the teacher invited must be honest and kind.
Xiao Yueyao said something.
Lu Yechen was excited after hearing this. "Um, what are the qualifications for admission to this academy?"
Xiao Yueyao said: "Family information and an interview are required. If there are no problems, you will be approved."
Most people can't read.
Therefore, Xiao Yueyao mainly looked at the temperament of the women who came here to study, and whether their words were kind and pure.
She hopes that the atmosphere in the girls' college will also be good.
Even if some people have powerful families, if they are arrogant and bully others, they will never be allowed to study in the academy.
Xiao Yueyao is very strict about this.
Just hearing this, Lu Yechen felt more relieved.
Because at this time he thought of his cousin from his aunt's family.
My aunt's cousin is gentle and timid, and my aunt is very worried.
His uncle passed away early, and he depended on his aunt and cousin for survival.
It was only some time ago that he found out that they lived in the mountains far away from the capital, and their clothes were ragged. He was worried just looking at them.
He wanted to help them, but they didn't need it.
At this time, Lu Yechen thought of what Xiao Yueyao said.
Once you have a skill, you will have the ability to rely on yourself.
They can be self-reliant and independent without having to rely on others.
Besides, the girls admitted by the academy here must be honest and kind, so my cousin will definitely be no problem.
Also, my cousin is timid, so she shouldn’t be bullied here.
"If people from outside the area want to study, can they come to the academy?"
"Yes, as long as you pass the interview."
Lu Yechen said seriously, "To be honest, Sister Xiao, I have a cousin who is fourteen years old. She is kind, gentle, and timid, but very smart and hardworking. I wonder if she can come to study. Of course, Sister Xiao can recruit students according to the interview method. If she can get in, then she can get in. If not, that's her problem."
Lu Yechen just found out all this for the sake of his cousin.
So he told it frankly.
He is older than Su Xueyi, so now he calls her Brother Su and Sister Xiao.
Call it that.
Calling someone "Princess" or something like that is just a polite way of addressing them.
Xiao Yueyao smiled and said, "That's no problem. If she passes the entrance exam normally, I will naturally arrange for someone to take good care of her."
In this way, Lu Yechen felt both relieved and grateful.
When they returned, Lu Yechen went to the study with Su Xueyi to discuss some important news.
After the two discussed for a while, Su Xueyi seemed to have thought of something and asked, "I wonder if Brother Lu knows about those purple eyes."
"For example, someone with an unusual status."
As the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Lu Yechen must have more and more comprehensive information.
That's why Su Xueyi asked Lu Yechen.
Mainly because she saw Xiao Lenghan again in the restaurant, Su Xueyi couldn't help but ask.
When he heard the words purple eyes and noble status, a light flashed in Lu Yechen's mind, and he really thought of someone.
