The Culinary Tycoon

Xue Baishu's shout made the customers in the store laugh again.

It's good to be young, it reminds them of the beauty when they were young and in love, looking forward to getting married with the one they love all day long.

Le Geer and the others finished eating, and when they left, Le Geer deliberately winked at Chang Geer, and bent his thumbs towards each other.

Brother Chang saw that Brother Le was teasing him again, and immediately felt embarrassed, and waved to him: "You go to acupuncture!"

Brother Le nodded, and gestured again: "When the feet are ready, let's go to Anfu Temple to fulfill our vows."

"Okay." Brother Chang nodded in response.

After agreeing, Le Geer took Yu Qingze's hand and walked away with crooked eyebrows.

Seeing Brother Chang and Xue Baishu successfully get together so quickly, Brother Le is very happy.Brother Chang has been his best friend for these years. Although the two are five years apart, their relationship has always been good, especially in the past two years, they are as close as brothers.

Yu Qingze looked sideways at Brother Le, saw him smiling, squeezed his hand tightly, and asked, "Very happy?"

Le Geer nodded, scratched Yu Qingze's palm with his fingers, and gestured with the other hand: "It seems that they should get married soon."

Yu Qingze grasped the mischievous hand tightly, squeezed it, and said, "Well, let's think about what gifts to give them."

Brother Le's eyes lit up, and he gestured: "Give me a wardrobe like ours. Brother Chang has seen it before and likes it very much."Or our kind of queen bed and dressing table.

Yu Qingze nodded, and said: "Yes. You can ask them first, what if they bought it at home?"

Brother Le nodded, already planning in his heart.

But Yu Qingze had to think more.Brother Chang will get married by then, so he will definitely not live in the store, so it is better to find a brother to fill the vacancy in the kitchen, it is best to find a brother who is already married and has grown children...

Moreover, I have to confirm with Brother Chang, can he still come out to work after getting married?If not, he has to train a store manager before he gets married.

As expected, Xue Baishu was very anxious. He went home and told Dr. Xue and Ye that day, and the matchmaker hired by Xue's family came to the door the next day.

Fortunately, Xue Baishu went to talk to Brother Chang in the evening, and he went back early, otherwise he would not be at home when the matchmaker arrived.

Regarding this marriage, Brother Chang's father naturally had no objection, but he was a little worried about whether Brother Chang would be disgusted if he married the big family of the Xue family.

However, this is what Brother Chang himself chose, so they can only agree, and then tell Brother Chang to be faster in logistics, more filial, and do more things and talk less.

Brother Chang agreed one by one, and chatted with his parents for a long time, reassuring them.

The marriage of the two was quickly agreed on years ago, and they will get married on the auspicious day in April next year. In the past three months, the two families have been preparing for their respective marriage-related matters.

When their marriage was confirmed, Yu Qingze went to ask Brother Chang about his plans.

Personally, Brother Chang was very willing, but he still discussed it with Xue Baishu.

Xue Baishu originally didn't want Brother Chang to work harder, but his family has a very good tradition. His grandma would come out to do what he likes after getting married. His father also agreed, and his father's feelings It's also very good, I haven't quarreled much, except for the fact that I kept it from his patient before.

Therefore, he followed his father's example and respected Brother Chang's wishes, but he just emphasized that if he becomes pregnant at that time and his body is inconvenient, he must put his body first and wait for the birth at home with peace of mind.

Brother Chang naturally agreed, and then returned to Yu Qingze.

After getting this news, Yu Qingze saved a lot of trouble.

Soon, it will be Chinese New Year again.

Yuji's two shops were closed on the 27th of the twelfth lunar month. Everyone packed up, closed the doors and windows of the shop that afternoon, locked them and went home to celebrate the New Year.

Le Geer's treatment is suspended for four days, and he can go there until the second day of junior high school.Yu Qingze drove the rented carriage home together, and he could pick up Brother Le at that time.

For two days in 2829, the family was busy killing pigs, making New Year's goods, hanging lanterns and posting New Year pictures, and preparing things for the New Year.

The three of Yu Qingze and the others seldom lived at home since the opening of Jufu Building, only Grandpa Chang and Chang Hao were left.Now that they are back, the huge house is finally no longer so deserted, but full of people. Grandpa Chang and Chang Hao are very happy.

Chang Hao was naturally the happiest.Brother and the others are back, which not only means that the food is delicious, but also that someone has played with him.

So, since returning home, Chang Hao has spent all of Jiabao's free time, playing with slingshots, kicking shuttlecocks, catching birds on the mountain, and begging him to teach him arithmetic...

It was also very busy.

On New Year's Eve, the whole family got up early in the morning and had breakfast, then packed some New Year's goods and set off for Cai's Mansion.

Because of Jiabao, the two families got closer, and they made an appointment to have a reunion dinner together on New Year's Eve, and Yu Qingze and the others would go home in the afternoon.

Mrs. Cai and his wife also returned to Tongshan from Yunzhou yesterday. Cai Chenxi was in the capital and couldn't come back because of the holidays. The whole family was missing him.

Mr. Cai's husband, Lang, is a gentleman with gentle brows and eyes, and he is easy to get along with.

Although it was the first time for Yu Qingze and the others to meet each other, they quickly became familiar with Cai Fulang because he was very approachable.

After sitting for a while, Yu Qingze took Brother Le and Jia Bao to the kitchen to prepare the reunion dinner.

Most of the servants of the Cai Mansion also went home for the New Year, only Uncle Fu was left in the kitchen, and only Mi Geer and the other two servants who came to Cai Mansion as slaves, and a few guards were left in the kitchen.

Cai Fulang talked to Cai Laofulang and Cai Yunwei for a while, and then they also came to the kitchen to help.

The whole family followed the division of labor arranged by Yu Qingze, chatting and cooking the reunion dinner together, which was very happy.

Not long after, Lord Luo's family also came over with New Year gifts.

Luo Mingda is the county magistrate here, and the annual leave is only a few days, so naturally he can't go back to the capital for the New Year.Before Master Cai came back, he asked Mrs. Cai to invite them to have a reunion dinner together.

Lominda readily agreed.Cai Mansion's cook had learned from Yu Qingze, and the cooking was better than his own cook's.

When they arrived at Cai's Mansion, he was even happier when he learned that Yu Qingze and his family were also there, and they were still cooking in the kitchen.

This New Year's Eve dinner is right here!

Luo Mingda accompanied Master Cai and Mrs. Cai while they were writing couplets, and Luo Fulang handed over his two sons to the boy, and then went to help in the kitchen.Mrs. Cai, Mrs. Cai, Mrs. Cai and the others are busy in the kitchen, and it is too unreasonable for me to just sit like this.

Because of the large number of people and the preparation of a large number of dishes, it was already past noon when everything was ready.However, the reunion dinner on New Year's Eve is basically eaten late, so it doesn't matter.

Cai's, Luo's, and Yu Qingze's families had a big round table, and the servants had a big table, exactly two tables.After the firecrackers were lit, they ate lively.

A large table of dishes, both meat and vegetables, catered for all kinds of tastes, coupled with the craftsmanship of Yu Qingze and Le Geer, it was a perfect reunion dinner, and everyone was very satisfied.

This is also the first time that so many people celebrate the New Year together in the Cai Mansion, and Mrs. Cai and his wife are very happy.

At the dinner table, Mrs. Cai told Yu Qingze: "I have received news that the reported threshing machine and wind valley car are very important to the imperial court. After the two masters in charge came to see it, they confirmed it was true, and wrote a special memorial to present it to It happened that the Ministry of Industry also made the threshing machine, and the emperor saw Longyan Dayue, and immediately approved to give you a reward. Because it happened to coincide with the Chinese New Year, the distribution was postponed until the next year."

Everyone was very happy when they heard the words.

Yu Qingze said: "It's thanks to the adults who reported it."

"It's more than that." Master Cai said again: "I presented your toothbrushes, brushes for washing clothes, baby carriages, walkers and so on. Those things are small and easy to take. The emperor saw them I know that you made the toothbrush he used this year and the new things that are popular in the capital. The emperor also gave special instructions to reward these small items that benefit the people. He also took a sum of money from his treasure house. Reward you."

"What? Boss Yu made the toothbrush too?" Luo Mingda asked curiously as he heard that this thing was made by Yu Qingze for the first time.

Yu Qingze nodded, and replied: "My work was very rough, but later the master carpenters improved it, and it became better and better."

"Excellent!" Luo Mingda stretched out his thumb and praised.

Not only does the food taste delicious, but he also knows how to do business and these things. I have never seen anyone with a smarter brain than him.

The most important thing is that the dishes are really delicious. What if he returns to the capital in the future?

Lominda was a little worried.

Some wine is indispensable for the reunion dinner, and Yu Qingze drank a lot with Master Cai and Luo.After the meal, they rested in Cai Mansion for a while, and then returned home before dark.

In the evening, I made dumplings, cooked a few more dishes, and ate them together.

After eating and cleaning up, everyone sat at the table around the charcoal basin to warm up the fire and eat snacks to watch the year.

When it was time to warm up in winter, Yu Qingze asked Brother Le to make a warming quilt.At this time, the table was covered with a warming quilt, and the feet were stretched in. The entire lower body was covered by the quilt, making it very warm.

Yu Qingze and Brother Le looked at each other, and then said to Grandpa Chang: "Grandpa, there is something we want to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?" Grandpa Chang asked.

Yu Qingze said: "Brother Le, Jiabao, and I are busy with business in the city, so we don't usually have time to come back, so we can't take care of you and Xiaohao. So, I discussed with Brother Le and planned to stay in the city Buy a yard, and then move the family to the city, so that our family doesn’t have to be separated. What do you think?”

"Moving to the city?" Grandpa Chang was surprised, and then asked, "What about the fields?"

Yu Qingze said: "Let's rent out the land to the villagers to plant. We can't take care of it normally. You have worked too hard alone, and brother Le and I feel sorry for you. Now that the conditions at home are better, we don't have to work so hard on farming. We all hope that you can take good care of your body and enjoy more happiness.”

Grandpa Chang took a puff of his dry cigarette, and then asked: "Then what about Xiaohao's study?"

Yu Qingze said: "I've already made inquiries. There are several schools in the city, and I've already chosen one. When the time comes, Xiao Hao can just go there and study."

"Where are those potatoes, cauliflower and cabbage?" Grandpa Chang asked again.

"Just entrust these to the village chief. These will be planted for the villagers in the future. They all know and will take care of them."

Hearing this, Grandpa Chang was silent for a while, and then asked, "Have you taken care of the yard?"

Yu Qingze nodded and said, "There are two more suitable places in the west of the city. They are not as big as our home, but they are not bad, and they are also close to North Street. We just want to say that we will go and have a look together when you agree, and we will book a place. When you earn more money in the future, you can change it to a bigger one.”

"I see." Grandpa Chang glanced at Chang Hao and asked, "Xiao Hao, what about you? Do you want to go to the city?"

Chang Hao nodded and said, "I want to live with my family."

Grandpa Chang nodded, then looked up at the house, and said, "I've only lived in this house for a short time, and I have to move again. It's a pity."

When Grandpa Chang said so, he agreed.Yu Qingze smiled and said: "When you want to come back to live in the future, you can come back to live for a while, and it will be treated as another hospital."

So to speak, after the opening of the snack bar and Jufu building on the eighth day of the eighth day of the lunar new year, Yu Qingze found a day when Brother Le didn't have to go to acupuncture in the morning, so he took his family to the two yards they had been optimistic about before, and then passed by everyone. Vote and finally choose a new home.

When Yu Qingze went to the Cai Mansion, he first borrowed 400 taels of silver from Mrs. Cai, and then added 200 taels himself to buy the yard.

After the deed was completed, they repaired it again, and finally chose a good day, and the family moved into their new home.

At this time, it was late February.

The rewards for the new farm tools issued by the imperial court were also distributed, a total of 200 taels, of which Yu Qingze gave 100 taels to the village chief's family.If they can't make it, they may not be able to get it.

The village chief and the others evaded it for a while before finally accepting it.

Over the past year, thanks to Yu Qingze's blueprints and preserved meat, the village chief's family has finally saved enough money, and now, their new house has also begun to be built.

There is another good thing to celebrate. Mr. Cai sent the news that the imperial court has also investigated the Qingzhou prefect Lu Hongsheng's use of power for personal gain and covering up his relatives. He sentenced Lu Hongsheng to prison and investigated the two murders committed by Jia Xiaoren In the end, Jia Xiaoren was sentenced to death, Jia's house was ransacked, Jia's father allowed his son to commit murder, and he was exiled.The servant of the household department was also demoted.

When everyone heard this, they all clapped their hands and praised the court for finally doing a good thing this time, eliminating harm for the people.Especially the people in Qingzhou City, it is said that on the day when Jia's house ransacked, everyone spontaneously lit firecrackers to celebrate.

At the beginning of March, the day after the new fleet brought back fresh squid, shrimp and clams for the first time, the teppanyaki restaurant jointly opened by Yu Qingze and Master Zhao Hu Dangjia finally opened.
