What Luo Jianjia wants to do is gluten soup.
This soup is very tasty, but it is a little more troublesome to make.
Her memory of this soup is still from her childhood. When I grew up, I didn't drink it at all, and I didn't think to do it myself.
Now there is an opportunity to do it.
The reason why it is said to be troublesome is because there are many steps to make this kind of soup, and you need to knead and wash the face.
The face water that comes out of the wash is kept, and the gluten left after washing the face is also left.
Because I want to make Liangpi at home, these things happen to be available now, which saves a lot of trouble.
Similar to other egg soups, put oil in the pot, when the oil is hot, add chopped green onion, chopped tomatoes, and some other vegetables.
Of course, you can also fry chopped peanuts, tofu skin and the like.
There were no peanuts at home, and she made them into strange-smelling peanuts last time and took them away from Chu Weileng.
I didn't have tofu skin either, so I made a simple one.
After frying the tomatoes into juice, put the water, and the water boils the water below. This time the noodles are not ordinary noodles, but the noodles used to make Liangpi.
The soup made from this kind of noodles is different from that made from ordinary flour, and has a unique taste.
Then put the gluten into small pieces and put them into the pot.
Wait for the water to boil and the gluten to be cooked.
Food often heals the soul.
After taking a sip of the soup, Mr. Zhao, who was still thinking of his son just now, focused all his attention on the soup.
Luo Jinjia also took a careful sip after listening to the praises from Mrs. Zhao and Boss Chu.
Sure enough, it still tastes like a child.
She didn't eat much on weekdays, and today she drank two bowls of soup for the first time ever.
After dinner, Aunt Wang came to help.
Although Aunt Wang left yesterday very wisely, she cannot avoid her curious nature.
After he came, he asked Mrs. Zhao curiously: "Sister-in-law, what happened yesterday, that person is Brother Leng's friend?"
In fact, not only Aunt Wang was curious, but many people in the village had seen Mo Feng, especially the horse Mo Feng was riding, and they were all very curious.
Zhao Shi smiled and said, "No, that's the bodyguard of Brother Leng's friend."
After hearing this, Aunt Wang immediately widened her eyes in surprise and said, "Is he a bodyguard? Some people believe that the son of a big family, but he is more handsome than the son of the other family in the town."
Zhao said, "That's right. They're from the capital, so they're better than those worn by rich people here."
Aunt Wang tutted: "Brother Leng is really amazing, he has honored his ancestors, and the people he knows are not the same as before."
"It's nothing," Zhao said.
After speaking, Aunt Wang asked again, "Then what is he doing here?"
Zhao explained to her: "Before Brother Leng left, Jianjia made a lot of delicious food for him. After his friend tasted it, he thought it was delicious, so he asked the guard to come over and take some away."
She didn't say that the other party bought it or how much it cost. This was what they had negotiated before.
If others know that their family has made so much money, it will make many people jealous, and it will be bad if the bold and greedy thief comes to steal things.
Aunt Wang glanced at Luo Jianjia and praised: "My niece and daughter-in-law are amazing. People who cook and eat in Beijing say they are delicious."
Aunt Wang's doubts were all answered, and the two of them said a few more words before changing the subject.
It turned out that Luo Jianjia's idea was correct. She changed half of the cakes to sweet ones, and this half sold the fastest.
When it was sold out, many people came to ask. Seeing that there was no sweet food, many people didn't buy anything, and some people bought some spiced ones by the way.
Luo Jianjia thought that the number of scones could be increased again tomorrow.
After dinner, the three gathered together and counted the money.
Yesterday, because I was busy making pork jerky, I didn't have time to count it. Today I took out yesterday's money and counted it together.
After counting, I found that I had earned more than 300 yuan in these two days, which made everyone happy.
However, Luo Jianjia also reminded in time: "Although I make a lot of money, it may not last for a long time. There are no scones on the market today, so we can try an early adopter. There must be a lot of people who imitate later, and we may not be able to make money by then. So much."
Zhao Shi smiled and said, "That's okay, we can also make more tea eggs. That thing is popular and no one can imitate it."
Boss Chu also said: "Isn't it true, there are people on Jin'er wharf who imitated tea eggs, but the taste is not as good as ours. The eggs have no taste in them, and not many people buy them."
Luo Jianjia is also more confident in the tea eggs, saying: "This thing is easy to make, but it is difficult to grasp the weight of the ingredients, and it is difficult to understand at the moment. The scones are different, that simple. Now there are people in town who sell them like ours. The shape is the same, and it is estimated that I will learn it soon.”
This is also the reason why she has been improving the shape and taste for the past few days.
In fact, the scones originally given to Chu Weilen were the simplest scones and tasteless. There is no seasoning, no oil, and the outer layer is not crispy. These were changed later. From tasteless to spiced, and from spiced to sweet and spicy.
"After all, we sell first, and then we can still make money if others sell it." Zhao said confidently.
This is true, even if the sales are not as good as they are now, they can still sell some.
Luo Jianjia nodded, agreeing with Zhao's words very much.
"Let's do more tomorrow, while everyone hasn't learned it yet, and when everyone has learned it, let's reduce it when the sales drop." Luo Jianjia said.
"Okay." Zhao and Boss Chu both agreed.
After talking about the business affairs for the past two days, I came to the most important thing at home recently.
Luo Jianjia took out the one hundred taels of silver notes that Mo Feng gave her yesterday.
Yesterday, because the time was tight, after she accepted the money, she went to the county town to buy meat.
When she thought about it during the day, Aunt Wang had already come to the house, so it was inconvenient to talk about it.
Finally, it's been delayed until now.
"Father, mother, this is one hundred taels of silver."
Zhao shi glanced at the bank note and wanted to reach out and touch it. When he was about to touch it, he retracted his hand again, and after wiping it repeatedly on the clothes, he picked up the thin silver note with both hands.
She has lived most of her life, and this is the first time she has seen what a silver note looks like.
Although she didn't know any of the words above, it didn't affect her attention to this silver note.
"It's so beautiful." Zhao Shi sighed, "His father, you should take a look too."
Saying that, he passed his hands to Boss Chu.
Boss Chu has always been more stable than Zhao's, but today he also imitated Zhao's just now, wiping his hand on his clothes before he dared to touch it, and also took it with both hands.
Boss Chu looked at the bank note for a while, and then handed it to Luo Jianjia.
"Brother Leng, daughter-in-law, you should take the silver note." Old Chu said, "You came up with this pork jerky, and you should have the one hundred taels of silver."
Luo Jianjia was stunned for a moment.
According to what I said before, half of the money earned in the family goes to Boss Chu and half to her.
She thought that with so much money, Mr. Chu would keep it there.
Of course, she believed in the person of Boss Chu and Zhao, and she also believed in Chu Weilen.
If one day she and Chu Wei Leng reconcile, Chu boss will definitely give her half of the money, not all of it.
So she is also going to give the money to Boss Chu tonight.
Unexpectedly, Boss Chu not only asked her to keep it, but also said that he would give it all to her.
"I'm afraid this is inappropriate." Luo Jianjia said.
Hearing what she said, Mrs Zhao said on the side: "There's nothing wrong with it, Jianjia, you can take it. Not to mention dried pork, our cold skin, tea eggs, etc. are all yours to come up with, if not You, our family doesn't know what it will be like now, don't push it, just take it."
Boss Chu nodded and said: "Your mother is right, without you, this family can't get up. You have read books and knowledge, but the family will trouble you in the future. Brother Leng is an official now, with you Such a lady is his blessing, brother Leng has to take care of you in the future."
Luo Jinjia knew that Boss Chu and the Zhao family really gave it to her.
These two people are sincere, even if she refuses again, they will not want it.
So she stopped being hypocritical and took it over.
However, this big order was taken by Chu Wei Leng. Without Chu Wei Leng, she would not be able to make so much money. Therefore, although she took it over now, she had thought about it, if she left with Chu Wei Leng in the future , she will still keep half of the money to the Chu family.
As long as the Chu family treats her well, she will not do anything unjust.
"The daughter-in-law will take it first, and if the family needs money in the future, my parents will tell me." Luo Jianjia said.
"it is good."
She slept late last night and woke up earlier today. Luo Jianjia was already sleepy. After speaking, she went to reconcile and went to rest.
Because she went to bed early at night, Luo Jianjia woke up early the next day. After waking up, she felt a little colder in the bed.
She is most afraid of the cold. No matter how hot it is in summer, she can bear it, but she can't bear the cold.
The air in the south is humid and clammy, especially indoors, making it uncomfortable.
I woke up in the morning and felt like I was sleeping in a humid environment and couldn't get warm.
Looking at the weather outside, Luo Jianjia thought, it seems that the quilt has to be dried again today.
After waking up, she couldn't sleep either, and after lying down for a while, she brought the box where she put the money.
She counted the money, except for the one hundred taels, she still had six taels of silver, and the eight taels given to her by Chu Weilen, a total of one hundred and fourteen taels.
However, not all of the money belongs to her.
She originally saved nearly eight taels of silver, but that day she went to town to buy meat and seasonings for about twenty taels, so she only had six taels.
She intends to give Zhao's fifty taels of the one hundred taels of silver, so she has a total of fifty-six taels of silver.
Looking at the silver in front of him, Luo Jianjia breathed a sigh of relief.
The fifty taels of silver really came too timely, and solved almost all her problems. Setting up a female household, renting a shop in the county seat, and opening a store are no longer a problem.
She doesn't have to worry about how to make money now, she can relax.
Thinking of it this way, Luo Jianjia felt that the humid air was not so annoying anymore, and went to wash up in a happy mood.
In the next few days, Luo Jianjia made nearly 200 cakes. Although it took a long time to sell, they were still sold out. The highest profit reached 350 yuan, and the whole family was happy.
On the other side, Mo Feng rode a fast horse all the way back to the border.
After arriving at the border, he didn't hesitate, and directly sent the things his master wanted to the barracks.
Wang Qingjue swallowed as she looked at the large package of pork jerky in front of her.
"There is a packet of dried pork and pickles in it that Mrs. Chu gave to Lord Chu, and there is a letter to Lord Chu." Mo Feng opened the bag and explained.
Wang Qingjue opened the bag and looked at the contents. The pork jerky was wrapped in oil paper one by one, and there were about ten packets.
Wang Qingjue has always been a generous master. He handed one of the packets to Mo Feng and said, "You guys should share it."
There were many people accompanying him this time, but not all of them entered the barracks, and many were outside.
"Thank you, Master." Mo Feng said, and then added, "Mrs. Chu's cooking is really delicious, and it feels very comfortable to eat, I can't describe the feeling."
Wang Qingjue looked up at her subordinates and asked, "What did you eat?"
"In response to the master's words, Mrs. Chu will stuff her subordinates with a few cakes and tea eggs." Mo Feng replied respectfully.
Wang Qingjue heard the unfamiliar food name "tea egg" and asked, "Is there any more?"
Mo Feng paused, knelt on the ground, and said, "...No, those things can't be stored, and the subordinates have finished eating on the road."
Wang Qingjue glanced at him, then lowered his head again, unwrapped a greased paper bag, took out a piece of pork jerky and ate it.
"Get up. Good job, go back." Wang Qingjue said.
After he finished speaking, he walked towards the military camp.
When he was resting after training in the afternoon, Wang Qingjue handed a burden to Chu Weilen.
"Brother Wang, what does this mean?" Chu Wei was puzzled.
Wang Qingjue chewed the pork jerky and said, "Open it and take a look. The food and letter your mother-in-law brought you."
As soon as he heard that there was food made by Roche, Chu Wei's eyes lit up, and he quickly opened the burden.
However, the most conspicuous is the letter above.
Chu Wei Leng put the burden on the table beside him, took out the letter from the envelope, and sat aside to read it.
The thing Wang Qingjue wanted to deliver had already been delivered, and he didn't want to look at anyone's privacy, so he turned around and was about to go out.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the curtain was opened, he was stopped.
"Brother Wang!"
Wang Qingjue stopped and looked back. Seeing Chu Wei Leng holding the letter, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Brother Chu, is this inviting me to watch it together? It's not very good, after all, it was written by Brother Chu's wife. , If I wrote any love story, it would be very bad for me to read it."
Wang Qingjue said a few words jokingly.
Chu Wei Leng didn't want people to see it, but... he really didn't know some words.
"Cough, I don't know this word." Chu Wei replied coldly and honestly, "I wonder if Brother Wang can read it for me?"
