Happy Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 718 So Much Money?

"."

After a while, Lin Tieniu made the best old hen stew, and then walked to the living room with the clay pot. He saw at a glance that there were only a few empty plates left on the dining table, and he felt a little speechless.

Afterwards, he put his eyes on Yu Haitang's face, with a slightly displeased expression.

Although he did tell Yu Haitang to eat first when he was hungry, but no matter what, he couldn't just eat all the food!

Seeing Lin Tieniu's face, Yu Haitang blushed instantly.

Then, she opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but He Yushui got ahead of her.

"Brother Tieniu, I'm sorry! It was me and Haitang who competed to eat, so I didn't pay attention and ate all the food."

"That's it! It's okay, anyway, this dish is specially made for you."

Lin Tieniu frowned upon hearing this, then shook his head and said.

After finishing speaking, he put the clay pot on the table, then reached out and opened the lid of the clay pot. With a gust of white steam rising up, a fresh and rich smell soon wafted in the air.

Yu Haitang and He Yushui couldn't help swallowing their saliva when they smelled the smell of old hen soup, and there was a hint of greed on their faces.

Seeing their reactions, Lin Tieniu smiled slightly, and served them a large bowl of old hen soup.

"."

Yu Haitang looked at the big chicken legs in He Yushui's bowl, and then at the chicken head in his own bowl, feeling a little resentful and depressed.

If she hadn't finished the food just now and felt a little wrong, she would have ordered Lin Tieniu to scold Lin Tieniu for a meal.

At the same time, He Yushui looked at the big chicken legs in his bowl and the chicken head in Yu Haitang's bowl, and suddenly felt flax.

No need to guess, she would know that Lin Tieniu did it on purpose.

This.
This is too bad!

Thinking of Yu Haitang eating the chicken head, He Yushui felt inexplicably funny, and even had the urge to take a picture of this scene.

It's a pity that she doesn't have a camera in her hand, so she naturally has no way to achieve her idea.

And Lin Tieniu's reaction to He Yushui and Yu Haitang seemed unknown, and there was no strange look on his face, as if he didn't do all of this on purpose.

In fact, that's what he did on purpose.

The purpose is to teach Yu Haitang a small lesson, so that she will remember to pay attention to the rules in the future.

Seeing Lin Tieniu drinking the chicken soup as if nothing had happened, Yu Haitang became more and more annoyed as he thought about it. Then, as if angry, he picked up the chopsticks and picked up the chicken head in the bowl, and put it directly into his mouth.

Isn't it just a chicken head?

When has this girl been afraid?

Hmph, if you want to see me make a fool of yourself, there is no way!
Yu Haitang gnawed on the chicken head while muttering in her heart.

This gnawing immediately made her unable to stop.

She didn't expect that the chicken head would be so delicious, it was delicious and sweet when she bit it lightly.

Especially the brain inside, it tastes delicious and smooth in the mouth, and the taste is simply amazing.

Soon, she was immersed in the delicious food and completely forgot to continue to be angry with Lin Tieniu.

He Yushui took a bite of the chicken thigh and was enjoying the deliciousness, when he suddenly saw Yu Haitang's intoxicated face, he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

Based on her understanding of Haitang, shouldn't she dislike chicken heads?

Why does it look completely different now?

Could it be that Yu Haitang always liked to eat chicken heads?

If this is really the case, wouldn't Lin Tieniu have miscalculated?

Thinking of this, He Yushui hurriedly turned to look at Lin Tieniu, wanting to see how Lin Tieniu would react.

When he looked at it, he immediately saw Lin Tieniu's surprised face.

Yes, just surprise.

Originally, Lin Tieniu had seen the arrogance in Yu Haitang's heart, so he deliberately put a chicken head in Yu Haitang, hoping to dampen Yu Haitang's arrogance.

But he didn't expect that Yu Haitang would be so intoxicated eating the chicken head, and his plan fell through immediately.

It seems that he really underestimated this Puxin girl.

"Brother Iron Cow"

He Yushui endured it, and finally couldn't hold back and shouted with some worry.

But before she finished speaking, Lin Tieniu shook his head at her to indicate that it was okay.

Seeing this, He Yushui breathed a sigh of relief, and then glanced at Yu Haitang again, with a hint of strangeness in his eyes.

"Yu Shui, why are you looking at me like that?"

At this time, Yu Haitang spit out a piece of chicken skull from his mouth, then raised his head to see He Yushui's gaze, and couldn't help feeling a burst of doubt.

"No, nothing!"

He Yushui panicked, then hurriedly shook his head and said.

"Oh!"

Yu Haitang didn't think too much when she heard the words, she nodded in response, and then drank the chicken soup.

Hearing the conversation between He Yushui and Yu Haitang, Lin Tieniu couldn't help but shook his head in his heart, and a famous Internet quote from the 21st century suddenly appeared in his mind.

As long as I am not embarrassing myself, it is others who are embarrassing.

This sentence was applied to Haitang, it couldn't be more appropriate.

After a while, the three of them ate cleanly with a pot of chicken soup, until Yu Haitang and He Yushui were a little stuffed, and they leaned back on the backs of their chairs to sit and rest.

Lin Tieniu glanced at Yu Haitang, and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, why Yu Haitang and Yu Li were both born to the same mother, but their bodies are so far apart, they are completely different types.

At the same time, he also felt that Yu Haitang was born in the wrong era. If he was born in the 21st century, he might be able to become a model for Victoria's Secret with his straight and tall figure!
Yu Haitang noticed Lin Tieniu's gaze, and thought it was Lin Tieniu who was peeking at her!I can't help but feel a little proud in my heart.

Then, she suddenly remembered that she hadn't found a chance to ask about the secret of He Yushui's beauty, and immediately became anxious.

After thinking about it, she had an idea, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Tieniu, you are such a good cook, do you know if there are any dishes that can make people look beautiful after eating?"

"Eat dishes that make people look beautiful?"

Lin Tieniu raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and then asked pretendingly puzzled.

"Yes! Is there any?"

Yu Haitang nodded and asked expectantly.

"Yes! Of course I have. You must know that since ancient times, there has always been a saying of food supplements. Like the royal chefs in the palace, they specially cooked meals for the emperor and empresses. The requirement is not only nutritious, but also delicious. It can make the queen and concubine more beautiful after eating it."

Lin Tieniu looked straight, then nodded, and said seriously.

"Then can you tell me how to make these dishes?"

Yu Haitang was overjoyed, and asked impatiently.

"This"

Lin Tieniu frowned, then looked at Yu Haitang with a perplexed expression.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Seeing this, Yu Haitang hurriedly asked.

"To tell you the truth, it's not that I can't tell you how to make the dishes, it's just because these dishes must first master a certain knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine before trying to make them, otherwise, the dishes made will not only have no effect of making people beautiful , and it may become poison, so I dare not tell you directly."

Lin Tieniu pondered for a while, and then said with a serious face.

"That's it!"

After hearing what Lin Tieniu said, Yu Haitang immediately felt disappointed.

Originally, she planned to get the cooking recipe from Lin Tieniu first, and then go back and make it for herself.

As a result, things were not as simple as she thought.

She didn't want herself to become beautiful, but to be poisoned to death by herself.

"Otherwise, if you really want to learn to cook those dishes that can make people beautiful, then I can teach you from scratch, as long as you can prepare the ingredients for me."

Seeing Yu Haitang's reaction, Lin Tieniu hurriedly made a suggestion.

"Then what ingredients do you want me to prepare?"

Yu Haitang was taken aback for a moment, then asked with a glimmer of hope.

"Well, I have some common ingredients here, that is, 50-year-old ginseng, [-]-year-old fleece-flower root, Tianshan snow lotus, and [-]-year-old soft-shelled turtle, which need you to prepare!"

Lin Tieniu smiled slightly, and then spoke softly.

"."

After hearing this, Yu Haitang's eyes widened and his face was dull.

None of these things sound simple. Even if she is sold, it is estimated that they will not be able to get one-tenth of these things together.

It seems that she can't expect to learn these dishes.

Thinking of this, her expression suddenly became a little depressed.

Just when she was thinking of completely giving up on being beautiful, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and a glimmer of hope rose in her heart.

Immediately afterwards, she hurriedly said, "Brother Tie Niu, I can't get the things you mentioned, but you must have a way, right?"

"Otherwise, how could Yushui's skin suddenly become so good?"

"It must be that you fed her those dishes that can make people beautiful, so that made her like this."

After finishing speaking, she looked at Lin Tieniu with determination, and waited for Lin Tieniu to admit it.

As everyone knows, this is exactly what Lin Tieniu wants to make her think.

So Lin Tieniu nodded without thinking, and said, "You're right, I did make a medicinal meal for Yushui before, to help her recuperate her body."

"I knew it was like this! Brother Tieniu, can you make me a medicinal meal too? Just tell me how much it costs, and I'll get it to you when I get home later!"

Yu Haitang's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and then he spoke hastily.

"Yes, yes, but, are you sure you want to spend that much money?"

Lin Tieniu nodded, and then asked with some concern.

"How much does it cost?"

Yu Haitang was taken aback for a moment, then asked nervously.

"Well, if you don't count the labor and just count the materials, it will cost at least 50 yuan to make this medicinal meal."

Lin Tieniu pondered for a while, and then spoke seriously.

"Ah! So much money?"

Yu Haitang stared, and then said with a face full of surprise.

Although she knew that the ingredients needed would be more expensive, she never imagined that it would be so expensive.

"That's right, if you don't believe me, you can go ask someone about it. Don't talk about anything else, just the century-old ginseng you need will cost at least a dozen dollars."

Lin Tieniu nodded and said calmly.

Although the century-old ginseng these days is not like the 21st century, where it can easily cost several million, but no matter what, it is impossible to see it without a thousand.

Converted into the dosage of a medicated diet, it is completely reasonable to say that it will cost more than ten yuan.

Therefore, he was not afraid of Yu Haitang's questioning at all.

"No, it's not that I don't believe in asking for so much money, it's me, I don't have that much money!"

After hearing Lin Tieniu's explanation, Yu Haitang hurriedly waved her hand and said.

After finishing speaking, she lowered her head in embarrassment, not daring to look at Lin Tieniu.

"That's it! There's nothing I can do about it!"

Lin Tieniu nodded, and then said helplessly.

Yu Haitang's heart sank when he heard this, and a look of disappointment appeared on his face.

Seeing an opportunity to become beautiful is in front of her, but she doesn't have so much money to seize this opportunity, for a while, her mood is as complicated as knocking over a five-flavored bottle.

Afterwards, she looked up at He Yushui with some reluctance, and suddenly thought of a very critical question in her heart.

That is, how did He Yushui have so much money?
Could it be that He Yushui was taken from the family?
Or, He Yushui didn't pay at all, and Lin Tieniu made it for He Yushui for free?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling a glimmer of hope in her heart, and then she quickly got up and approached He Yushui's ear and asked in a low voice, "Yushui, tell me the truth, did he charge you for making medicinal meals for you?"

"."

He Yushui was sitting on the sidelines watching the play, when he heard Yu Haitang's question suddenly, he didn't know how to answer it.

If she said that Lin Tieniu took money, then Yu Haitang would doubt where her money came from, maybe she would ask Sha Zhu and Hu Xiaotao directly, and it would be easy to give up.

If she said that Lin Tieniu didn't take any money, then the problem would arise. On the surface, she and Lin Tieniu were just ordinary neighbors, so why would Lin Tieniu cook such expensive medicinal food for free?

After thinking about it, she found that no matter what she said, it was inappropriate, and she couldn't help feeling a little worried.

"Hey, you are talking! Did he collect money from you?"

Seeing that He Yushui had remained silent, Yu Haitang couldn't help urging him.

"Do you have"

He Yushui was anxious, then opened his mouth and spit out the word yes, then hurriedly changed his words and said no.

"Eh, do you have it or not?"

Yu Haitang was taken aback for a moment, and then asked angrily.

"I don't know, you'd better go ask Brother Tieniu directly!"

He Yushui hesitated for a moment, and then said in a broken jar.

After finishing speaking, she couldn't help but glared at Lin Tieniu with a trace of dissatisfaction in her eyes.

Seeing this, Lin Tieniu hurriedly showed a comforting smile, then waved his hand at Yu Haitang, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, don't embarrass Yushui, the reason why I made medicinal food for Yushui is because she You have done me a great favor, and since this matter involves my privacy, it is not convenient for her to tell you."

"Well, that's how it is!"

When Yu Haitang heard the words, she was a little dumbfounded, and the glimmer of hope that rose in her heart was shattered again.

After hearing this, He Yushui breathed a sigh of relief, and then gave Lin Tieniu a knowing look.
