Chapter 71 Ancient Peasant Girl 21



This price was really not cheap. She had originally expected that the asking price would be only one hundred taels, and she would have to negotiate it down to one hundred and twenty taels.

After all, she has a lot of recipes in stock, but you can't sell them at a low price just because she has a lot of recipes!

When exchanging your accumulated knowledge for wealth, you can't ignore the price just because you have a lot of knowledge, right?

However, he did not expect the owner of Zhenxiulou to offer such a generous price, but it was impossible for Meng Changjin to bargain back.

So both parties had no dispute about the price, and they handed over the menu in one hand and the banknote in the other.

Two hundred taels of silver is equivalent to twenty kilograms. Not to mention the weight issue, even the volume issue is a big problem. However, using silver bills for transactions can easily solve this problem.

“Miss, please teach the chefs in my building how to make it again.” After receiving the recipe, the shopkeeper made a request.

"No problem." This was agreed upon before the deal.

Besides, she doesn't need to cook the two dishes again. She just needs to tell the other chef how to make them.

Moreover, she had expected the selling price to be one hundred and twenty taels, but the shopkeeper told her that it was eighty taels more, which made her more concerned.

Of course, she also knew that since the other party could buy the recipe at this price, he must be confident that he could make back the money, or even generate more money.

But this was just a one-time deal for her. She wasn't planning to open a restaurant. The recipes in her head wouldn't bring her money. Selling them would bring her money again. Why not do something that was sure to make money? Instructing the chef called by the shopkeeper to cook both dishes, Meng Changjin had to admit that even if it was his first time, the chef's dishes tasted better than hers.

This made Meng Changjin, who had just thought she was an excellent cook a few days ago, wake up. She was just average in cooking.

After teaching the chef of Zhenxiulou, the deal was completely completed. When Meng Changjin entered Zhenxiulou, he only had a dozen taels of silver on him, but when he came out, he had two hundred taels more.

When Meng Changjin came out of Zhenxiu Tower, he happened to meet a few men who looked like scholars walking into the Tower while laughing and chatting. The two sides passed each other face to face.

At first, Meng Changjin didn't pay much attention to these five or six scholars, but after his keen ears caught a name, Meng Changjin couldn't help but look back.

Unfortunately, the five or six people had already entered the Zhenxiu Tower, and when Meng Changjin turned around, he could no longer see them.

If she remembered correctly, the person she just heard was the scholar who later had an affair with Yu Jiaojiao, right?

Since she couldn't see it, she didn't plan to arrange one. That was Yu Jiaojiao's nature. Even if she didn't arrange it, Yu Jiaojiao would do it herself. She just needed to pay attention to it all the time and arrange a lively audience for her at the right time.

Just when she was about to buy seasoning and cut the fat to make oil, Meng Changjin suddenly raised her eyebrows. Oh my god, she found that the hallucinogenic talisman paper she had pasted in the yard, or in the chicken coop and pigpen was touched.

I don't know who it is, but I guess he must have been scared. Meng Changjin put the matter behind her, bought the things she needed, and returned to Lihua Village with them.

After returning to Lihua Village, Meng Changjin went straight home.

When he pushed open the gate and saw that everything in the yard was normal, Meng Changjin knew that someone must have entered the yard, so the talisman paper in the yard was triggered.

There was no other person in the yard. That person, or those people, probably climbed over the wall into the yard and were scared away by the terrible scene created by the hallucinogenic talisman paper. Anyway, Meng Changjin looked around and found that nothing was missing in the yard.

Meng Changjin did not take the initiative to look for this person. This person must have been scared to death when he entered the yard. Unless he was a fool, he would definitely not come again.

As for whether the other party would spread the word that there was a ghost in her yard, Meng Changjin felt it was fifty-fifty. However, whether the other party spread the word or not, it would not affect Meng Changjin much.

The truth is that everyone in the Yu family had secretly spread this matter before. If it was spread again, others would just think that the other party was talking about old things again.

After sorting out his thoughts, Meng Changjin started to get busy, fetching water, washing the meat, cutting the meat into large pieces, and then adding water to start boiling oil.

After the oil was ready, Meng Changjin poured it into the oil tank. Looking at the remaining oil residue, Meng Changjin thought of chopping it up and mixing it with cabbage to make dumplings.

Dumplings flavored with oil residue and cabbage were enough to make one drool just thinking about it, but Meng Changjin soon realized an important problem, that is, she didn't know how to knead the dough or roll out the skin. She did make dumplings before, but not only were they ugly, but when they were cooked, the skin was just the skin and the filling was just the filling. In short, she didn't know how to make dumplings at all.

After being hit with such a cold water, Meng Changjin decided to just stir-fry some cabbage with oil residue, which should taste pretty good.

Just when Meng Changjin went to the backyard to pick cabbages and came back to stir-fry them, Yu Laoer looked lost in the thatched house at the entrance of the village.

Before, Meng Changjin sensed that someone had touched the talisman paper in the yard, and that person was Yu Laoer.

After his leg was broken by Meng Changjin, he hated his "disaster star" daughter and always wanted to teach her a lesson.

In addition, there is another point that puzzles him the most. They have a well-repaired brick house but instead of living in it, they moved out to live in a thatched hut. This is really incomprehensible to Yu Laoer.

Other people in the Yu family said that the original house was haunted and it was very scary. But the time in the yard and the time on the day they moved out, both times he had injured his leg so he didn't see any so-called monsters.

If you don't see it with your own eyes, no matter how horrific it is described by others, you will never have a clear understanding.

So Yu Laoer didn't believe it at all. It happened that his legs had recovered a lot after a period of recuperation. In recent days, the old man and the old lady had been quarreling for some reason, so Yu Laoer thought about going to their home at the end of the village to take a look.

He wanted to prove that there were no monsters or demons at all, and that the other members of the Yu family were just scaring themselves.

By the way, he also wanted to teach Yu Hanzhu, the unfilial daughter, a lesson! Then Yu Laoer came over and found that the gate was locked, so he could only climb over the wall with his injured leg.

Fortunately, the wall was not high, so he climbed over it easily. Then when he looked up, he saw creatures with eyes, without eyes, and strange shapes all facing him and staring at him.

Yu Laoer was so frightened that his soul nearly flew away. He climbed over the wall and escaped screaming. However, because he was too scared, he fell several times while climbing over the wall, and his leg, which had been healed, was damaged again.
