Xie Wenwu is leaving tomorrow, and Song Yuehua doesn't want him to go through the trouble of cooking anymore.
But Xie Wenwu said, "After three years of not seeing you, Master, don't you want to taste my cooking skills?"
Haven't tasted it for three years.
Xiaoyu and Zhang Rushan came back for dinner and cooked a large table of dishes.
Among them, Xie Wenwu made three dishes, one fried tofu, one boiled pork, and one clear chicken soup.
Xie Wenwu picked up a piece of boiled meat and said, "After traveling to many places, I finally understood that people's tastes are different all over the world. Some are oily and spicy, while others are light and original."
"I've only made boiled chicken before, and this boiled meat is pretty much the same, but the key is the knife skills. Come and try it and see how it tastes."
Song Yuehua tasted each and nodded, "The boiled meat is fragrant and not greasy, and the chicken's fresh flavor is all in the soup. The tofu still tastes the same as before, and it tastes the same as it did three years ago."
"That's right," Xie Wenwu said, "Home-cooked food doesn't have to be very fancy, but it must have the taste of home."
"I think they are all delicious." Zhang Rushan took a full mouthful.
Xie Wenwu scooped him a bowl of chicken soup with a look of disdain, "You are a scholar at least, and now you are a teacher. You have to deal with important people on a daily basis. Why don't you know how to be more polite?"
Zhang Rushan took a sip of the soup and praised, "It tastes good."
"Xiao Hu, can you believe that this man is a scholar?"
Xie Wenwu looked at Zhou Xiaohu and said, "After eating so many dishes, you can only say they are delicious."
Xie Yu smiled with her lips pursed.
Zhou Xiaohu waved his hands quickly and said, "Just say it's delicious. If you say it in a more refined way, I'm afraid neither of us will understand."
"After all, we have studied for a few years, so why should we feel ashamed of ourselves?" Xie Wenwu said.
Song Yuehua dropped another piece of the meat she had just picked up. She coughed and asked Xie Yu, "Didn't you two go to play chess? Who won and who lost?"
"Sister Song, I won." Xie Yu approached Song Yuehua, feeling a little proud.
After hearing this, Xie Wenwu said, "Lao Zhang, you can't do it!"
"What?"
The small courtyard of the You Mansion was very lively, and several people stayed there overnight.
Before dawn the next day, Zhou Xiaohu made another pot of dry food. The journey to Qingzhou would take several days, so he should really take some food with him.
Song Yuehua looked at Xie Wenwu with reluctance, but still gave instructions.
"If you don't understand something about business, feel free to discuss it with Zhao Doudou and Jiang Yu. If you really don't understand, just write back. Even if Zhao Doudou doesn't come back this year, he will come back next year. You can set a time and leave together. If you don't have enough manpower, I will find a way for you."
"Master," Xie Wenwu's eyes turned red, "please stop talking. If you continue, I'm going to cry."
Song Yuehua quickly shut up.
There weren't many items in his luggage, mainly because Zhou Xiaohu had packed a lot of dry food for him.
Song Yuehua watched Xie Wenwu get on the carriage and leave, and asked Xie Yu in a low voice, "Aren't your parents and uncles coming?"
Xie Yu also whispered, "Second uncle and third uncle were not at home during the New Year. Dad went out right after New Year's Eve. Mom..."
"Mother has already said goodbye to my elder brother..."
Song Yuehua nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
After the carriage left, Zhang Rushan yawned and said, "I'll go back and take a nap."
Song Yuehua was no longer sleepy and arrived at the chess hall early, where she happened to meet Zhao the blacksmith pushing Zhao Xiaofu over.
"Sister Song, are you here so early?" Zhao Xiaofu greeted.
Song Yuehua greeted Blacksmith Zhao with a smile.
Blacksmith Zhao looks much more energetic now. Zhao Xiaofu said that sometimes when Erguotou goes to work in the back, he entertains guests in the front.
It’s good that you can get over it. It’s also good for your two daughters.
After a while, Xiang Xiaoyu and Xiang Chen also came.
"Boss, you come so early." As soon as Xiang Xiaoyu came in, he ran to the charcoal fire to warm his hands.
The water just happened to boil, so Song Yuehua simply poured her a cup of hot tea and said, "Drink a cup of hot tea to warm your body."
"That's so embarrassing." Xiang Xiaoyu picked up the cup and drank it with a smile, then brought the other cup to Xiang Chen.
Now the job of wiping the table was given to Xiang Chen. After Xiang Xiaoyu finished drinking her tea, she went to the backyard to boil some ginger and brown sugar water.
Song Yuehua sat down and flipped through the account book, then asked Zhao Xiaofu, "Is the sugar water selling well?"
"It wasn't selling well at first at 8 cents per bowl, but later Xiaoyu suggested that we add 2 boiled eggs to a bowl for 10 cents, and it started to sell well."
Zhao Xiaofu pointed to the bill for the ginger syrup and said.
Now eggs are sold for only one cent each.
Song Yuehua owns a chicken farm, so the cost of eggs is lower, so she can still make money even at 1 cent per egg.
Look at the sales of ginger and brown sugar water these days. On average, we sell about 20 bowls a day.
There was no surprise, nor was there any disappointment.
After a while, four students, Yu Duocai, Luo Guo, Yu Zhenren, and Lu Cheng, came over together.
"Give each of us a portion of ginger and egg syrup." Lu Cheng said.
Zhao Xiaofu asked, "How many chess pieces?"
Luo said, "Two."
After saying that, he looked at the three people behind him, and seeing that everyone had no objection, he decided on two paintings.
Yu Duocai leaned over slightly and asked Song Yuehua, "Boss, Miss Xiaoyun hasn't been here for a long time. I wonder when I can play chess with her again?"
Song Yuehua said, "Xiaoyun has not yet completed the homework assigned by the teacher before the New Year. She is now making up for it at home. It will probably be after the 16th when she comes."
The four of them often played chess with Xiaobao, and they knew that she was studying in the village school, but they didn't expect that she was also lazy. They couldn't help but laugh.
