Qian Jiujiu blinked her eyes and said, "As for time, we can get this thing if we squeeze it in. Anyway, the herbal medicine pavilion opens today, and we've been here, so we're giving it some face. Let's go back and prepare now, what do you think?"
Fang Xiaoxi found it a little funny. Her master was really decisive and efficient. She nodded and said, "Okay, let's go buy the materials now."
Well, this is my master, and I should make something delicious to comfort him. So the two of them just left.
As for paying, why should I pay for my meal at my son's restaurant? So the two of them simply forgot about paying the bill.
The shopkeeper watched the two men leave openly and wanted to chase them, but was stopped by Nan Nan: "Where are you going?"
The shopkeeper looked at Nan Nan with some curiosity: "Boss, these two are refusing to pay their debts. They are eating and drinking for free. Why did you let them go?"
Nan Nan rolled her eyes and said, "I'll pay for their table. Remember, next time those two come over, they don't have to pay for anything they eat."
The shopkeeper was a little dumbfounded: "Why?"
Nan Nan laughed: "That's my mother."
Uh! It turned out to be the lady. The shopkeeper quickly said, "I understand. What about the girl?"
Nan Nan glanced at the shopkeeper and said, "Why are you talking so much? Go and take care of the customer. I said I won't charge her any money in the future. If she comes to eat, she will put it on my account."
The shopkeeper understood that Suan Zheng was a very important person. After Qian Jiujiu and Fang Xiaoxi came out, they went to the market again to buy things. Fang Xiaoxi decided to cook a few hard dishes for Qian Jiujiu.
"Master, what kind of food do you like?"
What flavor? Qian Jiujiu thought for a moment and said, "I like spicy food. I haven't had authentic Maoxuewang for many years. I miss it very much."
Maoxuewang? Nan Nan almost thought she had heard it wrong. Looking at Qian Jiujiu, is there even Maoxuewang in this world? If so, let's make one.
Qian Jiujiu likes to eat hotpot. Before she traveled through time, she missed the hotpot in Chongqing. She likes Maoxuewang and other hotpots. Unfortunately, she is only good at making medicinal food. Mu Yexiao can make it, but it may be due to psychological reasons, and the taste is just a little bit lacking.
"Master likes spicy food, right? Then we can make spicy food, such as the Maoxuewang that Master just mentioned. I know how to make it!"
The two of them went to the market to buy materials while talking. After returning to the government office, Fang Xiaoxi plunged into the back kitchen of the government office, while Qian Jiujiu went to find Mu Yexiao.
Mu Yexiao was busy with things and didn't go to the store for the opening today. Seeing Qian Jiujiu coming back, he was in a good mood: "You're back so soon? How are the herbal medicines in the store?"
Qian Jiujiu thought for a moment before answering: "You get what you pay for. It's worth it. After all, it's cheap."
The two are husband and wife. When Qian Jiujiu said this, Mu Yexiao knew what she meant. He nodded and decided to let the chef at home do it.
Master Fang walked in at this time. Seeing Qian Jiujiu was also there, he was stunned for a moment: "Madam is back? Where is my little sister?"
Not seeing his sister, Master Fang couldn't help but ask. Qian Jiujiu raised his eyebrows. This guy was worried that he would sell his sister out.
"In the kitchen, she said she was going to prepare a table of delicious dishes to honor me!"
Master Fang knew that his younger sister liked to cook, so he nodded and said, "So that's how it is. My younger sister is a good cook."
Qian Jiujiu didn't have much hope, but she still wanted to accept the kindness, so she nodded and said, "That's right, which village did you guys count?"
Mu Yexiao answered: "Almost all the tasks have been assigned. If no major cases occur, everyone will be busy in various villages for some time."
Qian Jiujiu said, "So the allocation has been made? Then when do we set off?"
They had to leave quickly, because they had to follow Tong Ruyan in half a month! But with the secret guards following them, there shouldn't be any problem.
"Hurry up, we'll start in three days. Everyone is pretty busy now, so it won't be a problem if you go and register."
That means it will take another three days. Qian Jiujiu decided to help as well. The three of them started to divide the people into teams. After all, the government only had a few dozen people, but there were more than a hundred people in the village!
It has to be divided evenly after all. While he was busy here, after lunch time was over, Nan Nan sent all the guests away and headed back home to the government office.
When he came back, it was almost evening. As soon as he got back to his yard, he suddenly smelled a fragrance, which made his already hungry stomach even hungrier.
He turned a corner and headed towards the kitchen. The spicy smell aroused his appetite: "What delicious food has the kitchen prepared? I'm hungry."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the person busy in the kitchen was Fang Xiaoxi. His eyes widened: "Fang Xiaoxi, why is it you? Why did you run to the kitchen?"
Fang Xiaoxi was also a little surprised: "Isn't this the owner of the Herbal Medicine Pavilion? You run a restaurant, how can you let yourself starve like this? Don't you even eat the food you cook in your restaurant?"
Nan Nan laughed and said, "What are you thinking? It's because the business is so good that all the food is sold out, so the restaurant is closed. You might as well go home and eat instead of waiting for them to start over."
It turns out the business is so good. Fang Xiaoxi said, "Wait a moment, then. You can eat soon. Just ask someone to bring the dishes up."
While talking to Nan Nan, Fang Xiaoxi did not stop moving her hands. Nan Nan kept staring at Fang Xiaoxi: "You are really skilled at cooking. It smells so good. Why don't you come to my shop and be a chef?"
Fang Xiaoxi snorted: "I'm not coming! I have a lot of things to do, who has the time to be your cook?"
After having the dishes served, Fang Xiaoxi followed him to the dining room. Nan Nan followed behind him: "No, I can give you a high price. Don't worry, I won't let you suffer a loss. What do you think?"
Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao have been invited over, and Master Lian Fang has also come along to have dinner with them, and will go back after eating.
As a result, as soon as he entered the dining room, he heard his son's words. Qian Jiujiu couldn't help but ask: "What's going on?"
Before Nan Nan opened his mouth, Fang Xiaoxi answered first: "Nan Nan asked me to work as a chef in his restaurant."
Qian Jiujiu rolled his eyes: "That's a waste of talent, you're lucky you could come up with that. It smells so good, I haven't smelled such an authentic spicy smell in a long time."
Nan Nan burst out laughing: "Is there any authentic or not spiciness in this flavor?"
Qian Jiujiu glared at Nan Nan and said, "You don't understand. If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
This aroma was indeed mouth-watering, so Qian Jiujiu looked at everyone and said, "Okay, no more talking, let's eat."
The group sat down and started to eat. The food tasted really good and was similar to what they had eaten in their previous lives. Qian Jiujiu was very satisfied and ate a lot tonight.
Mu Yexiao was a little surprised: "I didn't expect that Xiaoxi, you are so young, but your cooking skills are so good. It's really unexpected."
It must be said that most people can’t make a dish that Qian Jiujiu likes so much: “How did you make this chili?”
No one expected that Mu Yexiao would ask directly, and Fang Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment. Mu Yexiao smiled embarrassedly: "I was too excited and asked something I shouldn't have asked. What I meant is that your master likes the chili you make, can you teach me?"
"If you can't teach me, then make some more and put them in the kitchen. What do you think?"
Fang Xiaoxi was a little surprised and looked at Mu Yexiao: "Master, can you cook? Do you want to learn how to make chili yourself? I'll write down the recipe."
Mu Yexiao smiled. He was very satisfied that Xiaoxi was so sensible. "Not bad, not bad. Then write it to me."
Come to think of it, he would really cook for his master. This master is a good man. Fang Xiaoxi was very puzzled. Isn't it said that people in ancient times had three wives and four concubines? Usually, the people around him were poor and couldn't afford to marry. Why did the county magistrate only have one wife
After the meal, Fang Xiaoxi left the recipe for spicy oil and then went back home with her brother.
Nan Nan looked at his father and said, "Dad, this is not good. People cook for you and you ask them to keep the recipe. This is too immoral."
Mu Yexiao thought for a moment and said, "That's true. This seems a bit too much! But it's already been done. Let's find a way to make up for it. It's said that a son should pay for his father's debt. Find a way to make it up to Xiaoxi. That's it."
Nan Nan's eyes widened. This was his father bullying him. Absolutely, definitely! So he turned his eyes away and looked at Qian Jiujiu: "Mom..."
Before he could finish his words, Qian Jiujiu suddenly spoke up: "Your father is right. Besides, Xiaoxi is your junior sister, so take good care of her. By the way, I have another task for you. I want to eat the spicy oil made by Xiaoxi, so find a way to get some back."
"It's getting late, your father and I need to rest. Good boy, come on, bring my chili oil back as soon as possible, otherwise your father will have to squeeze the chili oil by hand."
Having said that, Qian Jiujiu put away the recipe for making chili oil, then stood up, and left gracefully with Mu Yexiao.
Only Nan Nan was left in a mess, so he got nothing and got another task. He took a deep breath. Since ancient times, people have always cheated their parents, why is it the opposite when it comes to him
The parents teamed up to cheat their child, how outrageous. But why do I feel a little smug in my heart? Well, I have a reason to go to Fangjia Village to find my junior sister tomorrow, which seems to be pretty good.
