The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 117: Osmanthus lotus root powder

Views:

After the successful listing of Banhua Tea, Yunyan returned to the natural end of his term and returned to Kaifeng Mansion. Then, he ushered in the four sworn brothers of Bai Yutang. They visited Kaifeng Mansion and talked with Bao Zheng for a long time. Bao Zheng's charisma and the food conquest of Kaifeng Mansion are willing to stay here. After some trials, he also obtained the official position of the sixth grade school captain.

He also said that the annual Daxiangguo Temple International Food Festival is about to start. This year, Yun Yanhui's accusations are slightly different.

In the past, he was an insider, sitting in the rear, and even personally maintaining order. But this year, he is from the Kaifeng Mansion. Although the mansion has dispatched people to help maintain order, he will not be used.

Everyone knew about Yun Yanhui's relationship with Daxiangguo Temple, so everyone came to ask him for an internal ticket, otherwise they wouldn't be able to get in.

Yun Yan went back to the left and sent one to the right. In the end, all the tickets were gone, but at this time, Kaifeng House F4, Bai Yutang and the others didn't have tickets yet.

Bai Yutang was very unhappy, he thought that Yun Yanhui would definitely keep it, but who knew that Yun Yanhui would be confused when he sent the ticket, only to find out that there were still a few people who were missing, all of whom were relatively close. .

Yun Yan was embarrassed to return, the number of tickets was limited, and he had nothing to do with himself. Thinking that I have nothing to do at this year's food festival, I thought about it and simply applied for a booth.

Although the audience's tickets are gone, the stall owners still have them.

So Yun Yan used this quota and brought everyone in. Of course, in fact, the stall owner's application also went through the back door, otherwise the review and trial would have been completed long ago.

The day before the food festival, Yunyan returned home to prepare the ingredients. By the way, he cooked a big pot first, ready to taste it for his family.

Yun Yanhui stirred a large pot of food with a wooden spoon, and a certain mouse followed the aroma.

The same is true of Bai Yutang. If there is a door, he will not leave. Instead, he will be clinging to the roof, turning over the tiles and looking down. As soon as Yunyan saw what was in the pot, he exclaimed, "Good nephew, why are you boiling your nose to eat?"

Yun Yanhui was first frightened by his sudden voice, then she was speechless, raised her head and roared: "You can see clearly, is there such a thick snot?!"

Bai Yutang wrinkled his nose, "It doesn't look like snot, what is it?"

Yun Yan replied angrily: "If you say it's snot, you must not come and eat it."

"The incense is still quite fragrant..." Bai Yutang pretended not to hear, and got down from the roof, just in front of Zheng Ping who came out to hang clothes, Shi Shiran bowed, "Sister-in-law is polite."

Zheng Ping had long been numb to her family members who were high and mighty, and she fluttered away after returning a gift.

Bai Yutang entered the kitchen and looked closer, "Well, it looks like snot from a distance, but it looks more like it from close up."

Yun Yan rolled her eyes, and sprinkled the dried osmanthus flowers next to it into the pot. After mixing it well, she scooped up a spoonful and took a bite. The mouth was full of sweet fragrance, just right.

Bai Yutang was very thick-skinned and said, "I'll take a bite too."

Obviously, he clearly knew that Yun Yanhui couldn't boil his snot and eat it, so he just made a cheap mouth.

Yun Yanhui knew that Bai Yutang's tongue was extremely picky, so he gave him a bowl so that he could try the taste.

Bai Yutang brought it to take a bite, this thick substance was slightly yellowish, and had a honey scent in one bite, but more, it had a refreshing sweetness and a faint scent of sweet-scented osmanthus.

"Sweet but not greasy, it's great. You can leave out this honey." Bai Yutang ate half a bowl, "This is what you're going to sell tomorrow? The ladies should like it very much."

"It's not 'I', it's 'we', you also have to take the booth owner's ticket to enter." Yun Yan emphasized back, "Also, this nose... Bah, this is called lotus root starch, which is boiled with lotus root paste. , Honey, I also considered that Bian people love sweets, since you say so, then put some sugar or honey and ask the guests to put it away themselves."

Lotus root starch originally appeared around the Ming Dynasty, and it is best to use old lotus root, the higher the starch content, the better. Because the production method is very simple, there are quite a lot of lotus root in this season, so Yun Yanhui thought of making lotus root starch.

It's just that Bai Yutang ruined the atmosphere too much. He was stirring lotus root starch leisurely and freshly, but he was ruined by Bai Yutang.

"It turned out to be made of lotus root? No wonder it's so sweet." Bai Yutang smacked it again, and said casually, "Well, I'm leaving."

"Don't go," Yun Yan replied with a dark face, "Don't pretend you didn't hear it, all of you, all of you must do 'Dr. Ou' for me."

"Dr. Ou..." Bai Yutang's face was wrinkled when he heard the unpleasant address.

Yun Yan nodded back, "Yes, if necessary, you have to sacrifice color. For example, if a customer buys ten bowls, they can touch the face of Dr. Ou, and if they collect all Dr. Ou, they will give a special version of lotus root for free."

Bai Yutang staggered and almost fell, "It's ridiculous!"

"Look, or you don't go tomorrow, if you go..." Before Yun Yanhui finished speaking, he saw Bai Yutang fled away.

On the first day of the food festival, Yunyan returned to the family and set up a stall at the Daxiangguo Temple. With the current living standard of their family, this should be called experiencing life. There are also Kaifeng House F4, Bai Yutang, and Zhan Zhao, who were all asked to be "Dr. Ou".

Zhan Zhao was still a little surprised, "Should I do it too?"

"Of course." Yun Yan replied with an affirmative answer. He typed out a sign today with the words "Osmanthus Osmanthus Noodle" written on it, and asked Zheng Ling to draw some sweet-scented osmanthus flowers next to it.

Bai Yutang was originally unwilling, but when he found out that Zhan Zhao was particularly popular with guests, especially female guests, he was a little unwilling.

Although Yun Yan replied that he was just joking about buying ten bowls and touching his face, but at this time, how could he lose to Zhan Zhao

"Good job, uncle, you deserve to be the most handsome among the five rats." Yun Yan encouraged Bai Yutang, "How can it be a waste to wear such a sassy bag today, why don't you go and fight?"

"Do you think this is a jungler..." Bai Yutang glanced at Yun Yan and found it difficult to understand.

You must know that there are already advertisements, slogans and other forms at this time, and the store will make up some words to praise their products and shout out to attract customers, not to mention using various other means to increase their attractiveness.

It's conservative for him to take Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang out to attract customers. Haven't seen any wine sellers who hired Hu Ji to come to the platform? Even Yun Pusi and the others set up stalls here today, and they all performed Miao songs and dances. This is not only because the national color is already their biggest feature.

Yun Yan smiled back to see Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang being harassed by those aunt's guests and asked if they were married. In contrast, they seemed a little deserted in front of others. It seemed that no matter where they were, it was their looks.

There were a lot of people coming today, Yun Yan replied and told them to take turns selling lotus root starch. Seeing that he had nothing to do, after all, this job was only collecting money, scooping lotus root starch and so on, so he bought some lotus root starch and found it. .

I didn't forget to add more honey. As his master got older, he liked to eat soft and sweet things more and more.

Yun Yanhui grew up in Daxiangguo Temple since he was a child, and is familiar with the route here. Today, there are many people, so he will go to the less-populated path. Today, because of the food festival, everyone is busy outside, so many halls and meditation rooms are locked.

However, when passing by a meditation room, Yun Yanhui heard some noises inside.

Although Yun Yanhui didn't like to eavesdrop on other people's words, but the people inside didn't know how to lower their voices, so he told him to hear the words "Zhou Huilin" faintly.

Yun Yan was stunned at the time, hesitated for a moment, but still heard the corner.

"...Since this Zhou Huilin doesn't take punishment for toasting, this king must make him look good, so he raped him today, hehehe..."

Yunyan replied: "?!"

... Did he hear it right? Is it the Jian he understands

Yun Yanhui held her breath and continued to listen to the corner.

I just heard another voice from inside saying: "Prince King Yingming, you want to become a brother with him, because you look down on him, who would know that he is so ignorant. King, it happens that Saburo will come today, and he has a good fan. Medicine... hehehe."

Yunyan replied: "..."

There was a noise inside, Yun Yanhui didn't dare to stay for long, and walked away cautiously and quickly with a thumping heart.

But I don't know which clan is there. After all, there are so many clans in Bianjing as dogs. But since it is called the king of the county, then the seniority should not be low. It is not Zhao Yunchu's generation or his previous generation.

With Zhou Huilin's personality, it's really not surprising to offend people. Zhao Yundi didn't help out with justice back then, but he didn't expect to get into such a pervert. Moreover, this person's taste is really non-mainstream, and now the people who play with broken sleeves are generally like Zhao Yundi, who are mostly white and tender boys.

Although Yun Yanhui and Zhou Huilin have been feuding for years, the relationship has eased a little later. After all, Yun Yanhui is now a member of Kaifeng Mansion, so he thought for a while, then turned around and prepared to deal with it. Tell Zhan Zhao.

Yun Yanhui couldn't help but think differently. At this time, it seems like in modern times, there is no way to convict a man who is molested... Should such a case be taken to Dali Temple to discuss legislation

- Of course, just talking about a similar case, he will definitely let Zhan Zhao save people.

Yun Yan ran back to the booth, saw Zhao Yunchu also sitting there, put down the things, and said hello.

When Zhao Yunchu saw Yun Yan came back, he stood up, his eyes sparkling like a well-trained puppy, "Brother Yan."

"Well... you're here too today." Yun Yan gestured back to Zhan Zhao who was greeting the guests, Zhan Zhao nodded, and was about to come to the end.

Zhao Yunchu nodded, "Auntie asked for the signature again, saying that she might meet the third brother's marriage in a crowded place today, so she called out all the family members, and I took the opportunity to see you—this sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root starch is new Did you do it?"

Zhao Yundi's marriage is really a big problem. I heard it from the official family before. It is said that it is still difficult to go to the queen mother's place. The princess is really worried.

"Yes, you eat a bowl, but it's sweet, you must like it." Yun Yan replied, and started to make a bowl for him.

Zhao Yunchu held the bowl and sniffed, "Osmanthus fragrance." He took a sip, and his mouth was full of sweetness, so he raised his head and smiled back at Yun Yan before continuing to eat.

Yun Yan sighed back, Wuli Xiaochu is the real young man, and he is still different from the young man in his shell, and he is indeed the number one silly and sweet in Tokyo, and his smile is sweeter than sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root powder. .

At this time, Zhan Zhao also walked nearby, "What's the matter, Brother Yan."

There were a lot of people around, and Yun Yan called him back, hesitating for a moment, before saying, "I just happened to hear that two people were discussing how to... how to... defile a good boy, so I quickly came back to find you."

Zhan Zhao: "???"

Yunyan replied: "..."

Zhan Zhao calmed down and asked again, "What's the taint?"
