Chapter 10 Tasting vinegar is like drinking a magic potion
Jiusu's eyes were filled with ripples, and he spoke calmly.
"These are just soy sauce, vinegar, salt and so on."
"Can I take a closer look?" Agui asked politely. Seeing that Jiusu agreed, he stepped forward, carefully poured it on the spoon, and tasted it.
No, it’s different, absolutely different.
The salt is also very fine, almost refined salt.
Jiusu had already finished cooking today's dishes, but this time there were people around, so he could only put the condiments in a basket, said something to the shopkeeper, and turned to leave.
"See you tomorrow~"
"Miss Jiu, take care." Shopkeeper Fang waved. Then, he nudged the still dazed cook and asked, "Agui, what's wrong with you? You tasted vinegar and it's like you drank a drug."
Agui came back to his senses and said excitedly.
"Shopkeeper! I've been a chef for nineteen years! I've never tasted anything so good. The flavor is rich and concentrated, with just that sugar and salt. It's a whiter color than I've ever seen, crunchy and soft. It makes people love it."
I closed my eyes and savored the taste buds just now, as if I were dreaming.
Shopkeeper Fang chased a few steps into the courtyard, but didn't see Jiusu at all. He smiled helplessly, "I underestimated Miss Jiu. Back then, she agreed so readily to learn cooking from you, and she looked so calm. I guess she had a plan in mind."
Agui admitted, "The dish is very simple. The key is this seasoning. I think with this, the previous dishes will have a richer taste."
After the two of them discussed it, Manager Fang could no longer sit still.
He said, "Agui, you continue to fry here. Remember, don't fry too much. A steady stream of water will last a long time. I will discuss this with Miss Jiu tomorrow. This thing can't fall into the hands of others."
I feel uneasy.
What if Miss Jiu is unwilling to cooperate with them?
"Shopkeeper, Master Qian is looking for you."
"Okay, I'll be right there."
at this time.
Jiusu is being harassed by Sun Mei.
Sun Mei cursed, "You little bitch, which wild man were you hanging out with last night? You didn't even go home. Tell me, is his family rich? How much money can he give you?"
"You're thinking too much." Jiusu laughed, "I was too tired yesterday, so I rested in the restaurant."
She didn't intend to tell the Chen family about the yard in town, for fear that they would move in the next second after she told them.
Sun Mei didn't believe it, but she had other purposes for coming here.
She said with a playful smile: "Sister-in-law, I found a good job for you. You can name the price. Let's go and give it a try?"
"Such a good job, sister-in-law, you should keep it for yourself." Jiusu pushed away her outstretched hand and declined with a smile. Could she be so kind?
Definitely not, it’s probably not an easy job.
Sun Mei gritted her teeth. This little bitch, how alert is she? Her expression froze. "The owner of Zhenxinglou Restaurant is looking for you. You name the price. Do you want to go?"
The ridiculous Zhenxing Building?
Jiusu shook his head and said, "No."
"If you don't go, don't come home." Sun Mei stomped her feet and threatened.
"Okay, then I won't go back." Jiusu shrugged and smiled indifferently. It was better not to go back. She didn't want to go back to that home.
Sun Mei's eyes widened and she was stunned.
This is really too much! "No, Jiusu is becoming more and more disobedient. We have to think of a way to make her stay at home!"
She smiled smugly.
"Once a woman has a man and children, she can be tied to the house."
“…”
This time, Jiusucai bought a lot of quilts and sheets. Thinking of the Jiang family borrowing "quilts", she bought two more pieces of cloth.
The peddler pulled the things to the gate of the yard.
"Miss, please count the goods. If everything is ok, I will go back first."
"Thank you for your hard work." Jiusu handed over a copper coin.
The peddler left happily and promised to keep the address confidential. In fact, there is an unwritten rule in their line of work.
Delivery is delivery.
I won't tell anyone, "Hey! Thanks, girl."
Jiusu spread the soft bedding and put a pillow on it, feeling very satisfied. Then, he picked up two pieces of cloth and walked towards Jiang's house. It was very close and he could arrive there by just turning a corner.
"Asshole! Let me go!"
"Don't be so distant. Your brother is a servant in my house. If you don't behave, I'll beat him to death!"
"I beg you, please let me go!"
“…”
She listened carefully and it seemed like they were talking about Jiang Jing. The two people should be Qian Junjie and Jiang Nianyin. She walked quickly towards the voice.
Jiang Nianyin was blocked in a dead end by Qian Junjie.
Qian Junjie lifted her chin, greed on his face, "You are so beautiful, be my concubine, tonight... no, now, let's enter the bridal chamber, okay?"
"Bastard..." Jiang Nianyin closed her eyes in tears and despair. At this moment, she wanted to bite her tongue to commit suicide.
His teeth bit his tongue, the pain spread all over his body, and his consciousness became a little clearer.
But if she died, her brother would avenge her. As a fugitive, any small mistake would be magnified. Moreover, her parents would be devastated.
She remembered, remembered a sentence.
As long as you are alive, you can endure any hardship.
Qian Junjie's smile turned obscene, "The more you call me a bastard, the happier I am... well..." Suddenly, his eyes widened, and without turning around, his body collapsed.
Behind him, Jiusu hit him hard on the back of his neck with a cloth.
She studied medicine, and this wouldn't cause death, just a temporary coma. She reached out her hand to the frightened girl from the Jiang family, "Come here."
The voice was gentle, like a ray of light resting on her.
Jiang Nianyin felt her legs go limp. She held Jiusu's hand tightly. According to her memory, this seemed to be the woman her brother brought back.
She breathed shakily and whispered, "Thank you."
Squeak—
Jiang's mother opened the door and was surprised to see the person coming. "Miss Jiu?" Her eyes fell on her disheveled daughter behind her and she quickly closed the door.
Her heart was pounding as she watched her daughter jump into her arms.
"Yin'er, who bullied you?"
Jiang Nianyin cried, "Qian Junjie."
Today, I went to deliver an embroidered handkerchief to the boss's wife. I usually don't go out, but I didn't expect to run into that bastard.
Jiang's mother hated him so much that she really wanted to fight him to the death, but her tragic fate stopped her. She knelt on the ground with her daughter.
"Miss Jiu, I have no way of repaying your kindness."
"Hurry up and get up." Jiusu helped the two of them up and said, "It's just a piece of cake. Oh, and these two pieces of cloth are to thank you for borrowing the quilt. Otherwise, I would have caught a cold."
The autumn wind is the worst thing that can make people catch cold.
Jiang's mother waved her hand and quickly refused.
"No, no, no, a blanket is just a piece of cake. You saved Yin'er and our entire family's lives. I can't repay you for working like a slave."
"This is a gift from the younger generation. It's winter now, so please cut some new clothes for me." Jiusu turned around and put the cloth on the steps. After a few words of greeting, he left.
Noon.
Jiang Jing came back with firewood for dinner and saw his mother and sister hugging each other and crying. He frowned and walked forward to hear what Qian Junjie had done.
The mother and daughter also discovered Jiang Jing.
Jiang Jing clenched his fists, his eyes filled with coldness, "I'll kill him!"
