The Culinary Tycoon

Yu Qingze took Brother Le to cook another big table of sumptuous dishes. He also saw a new cook in the kitchen. Fu Bo introduced that this is the cook of Cai Mansion in Yunzhou, and Cai Chenxi brought him here to learn from Yunzhou. of.

During the meal, Cai Yunwei and Chang Hao were the last to arrive late.The two of them played all morning, they were covered in sweat, they just came here after washing up a bit, their faces were still flushed.

"Xiaohao, what did you take the second young master to play? Why did you sweat profusely? The second young master is not in good health yet, so he can't play too crazy, you know?" Yu Qingze asked Chang Hao.Chang Hao is physically strong. He is afraid that Cai Yunwei will be weak, so don't play too much and catch a cold and get sick again.

Chang Hao glanced at Cai Yunwei, nodded and replied, "I know Brother Yu, we are just catching crickets in the back garden."

Cai Yunwei also said: "Brother Yu, I'm fine, I'm much better now."

Old Mrs. Cai also smiled and said: "It's okay, let them play, usually no one plays with Wei'er, he is so bored."

Cai Chenxi also said: "Yes, Wei'er should move more, physical strength also needs to be trained."

Old Fulang Cai comforted: "Yeah, Xiaohao, don't listen to your elder brother Yu. Wei'er knows his body and he will tell you if he feels uncomfortable. Don't worry Xiao Yu, Wei'er has improved a lot. Since his appetite changed Well, his energy is also getting stronger day by day, let him have fun."

Hearing what a few people said, Yu Qingze was relieved, and asked again: "What activities does Second Young Master usually do at home?"

Cai Yunwei replied: "Just read, write, and take a walk."

Yu Qingze thought for a while and said, "I know a thing that can be used for entertainment and exercise. It can be played by one person or a group of people. It can be used as an entertainment for you to exercise."

"Oh? What is it?"

"Brother Yu, what is it?"

Cai Yunwei and Chang Hao asked in unison.Several other people also looked at Yu Qingze curiously after hearing this.

Yu Qingze smiled and said, "It's Shuttlecock. If you're interested, I'll teach you when you get up from your lunch break, and I still need to make some preparations."

"Okay!" The two teenagers said in unison again.

Old Fulang Cai said with a smile: "Okay, let's eat first, the food will be cold later."

"Yes, yes, let's eat first! I can't wait!" Cai Chenxi immediately agreed.

Everyone came to the table and had a delicious lunch.

Cai Chenxi finally ate delicious food, and said with emotion: "I am now envious of Brother Le and Xiao Hao, who can eat such delicious food every day."

Chang Le pursed her lips and smiled, feeling flattered in her heart, as if she was boasting about herself.

Chang Hao also smiled, and replied: "Young Master, Uncle Fu and the others have learned it, you and we eat almost the same. Now Big Brother Yu rarely cooks by himself at home, so I give my brother the opportunity to learn how to cook."

"Oh? Really?" Cai Chenxi asked.

"Yes, Brother Yu is the conductor. He only made it with his mouth, and my brother did it." Chang Hao nodded and replied, and then he did not forget to praise his brother: "But my brother's cooking is also delicious!"

Everyone laughed when they heard it.

After lunch satisfied, Yu Qingze found Mi Geer and asked him to bring a needle and thread, and then borrowed tools and some small pieces of wood from the carpenter in the house, and then he went to the kitchen to find the rooster's tail feathers that he plucked in the morning.

Chang Hao and Cai Yunwei were curious and wanted to follow, but Yu Qingze drove them back with a word.

"It takes time to do this. Go to lunch break, otherwise you won't be able to play in the afternoon."

The two teenagers obediently went to take a lunch break.Otherwise, with Cai Yunwei's current physical strength, he might not have the energy to continue playing without a lunch break in the afternoon.

Mrs. Cai and his wife sat for a while as they got older, and then went to take a lunch break.After so many days of exams, Cai Chenxi didn't have enough rest, so she also went to rest.

So, Yu Qingze took Brother Le to pick out chicken feathers and wash them at the kitchen door, and saw Mi Geer bring the carpenter.

Yu Qingze picked a relatively thick piece of wood, and told the carpenter to make it into a circle the size of a copper coin, and make a small hole in it so as not to penetrate the bottom.The master carpenter is proficient in his work and will get it done quickly.

Then Yu Qingze stuck the chicken tail feathers in, three tail feathers in three directions, and then inserted finely chopped tail feathers into the empty space in the hole below to prevent the chicken feathers from falling off, and a simple shuttlecock was ready.

He tried to kick it a few times, adjusted the direction of the chicken feathers, and said to Le Geer and Mi Geer, "Look, just kick like this."

Saying that, Yu Qingze kicked skillfully.His level of shuttlecock kicking is not bad, sometimes he kicks very high, sometimes he kicks a flower, his left foot is alternated with his right foot, and he can pad the ball like football, which made the two ancient brothers dumbfounded.

Le Geer and Mi Geer: They look amazing!

"I'll come, I'll try." Mi Geer was eager to try.

Yu Qingze taught him some basic postures, and Mi Geer learned them on the side.

Over there, Yu Qingze asked the master carpenter to continue making small wooden blocks, so that he could make a few more shuttlecocks, and the points would be good at that time.It's a pity that the rooster's tail feathers are not enough, so I only made two good ones, and the feathers of the others were not long enough to kick well.Mi Geer asked people to go to the vegetable market to find rooster tail feathers, and then made five or six shuttlecocks.

The method of inserting chicken feathers directly, the chicken feathers are easy to kick out. Later, Mi Geer and Le Geer wrapped the whole wooden board with cloth, and sewed the lower interface to fix it, so that it is not easy to run out of hair.

When Cai Yunwei and Chang Hao took a nap, Mi Geer and Le Geer could kick several times in a row.

Cai Yunwei and Chang Hao were very interested. After practicing, it was a pity that they couldn't kick the shuttlecock at the beginning, which caused a lot of jokes.

In the afternoon, the whole Cai Mansion was immersed in the shuttlecock kicking activity. Even Mrs. Cai and his wife watched the game with great interest, and sometimes kicked it twice.

Yu Qingze taught them how to kick again, how to kick with two people, how to kick with a group of people, how to kick with a rope in the middle to divide into two camps, and, when your legs get tired, you can use two wooden planks to catch the ball The 'badminton' style of play.

He also specially asked the carpenter to make two wooden long rackets, wrapped the handles with cloth, and demonstrated how to play for them.

Since then, shuttlecock kicking has become a new form of entertainment in the Cai Mansion, not only for entertainment, but also for Cai Yunwei and Mr. Cai's health and spirit.

Then, through the Cai Mansion, the activity of kicking the shuttlecock quietly became popular in the homes of some big families in Tongshan City, and then slowly spread to the common people, becoming a popular entertainment and fitness activity.

In the evening, Yu Qingze and the others went home happily, and the three of them also played shuttlecock all afternoon. Although they were a little tired physically, they were still a little excited, talking and laughing all the way home.

When they walked to the middle of West Street, they suddenly found a group of people gathered around the entrance of a medical clinic, and they didn't know what happened.

They looked over curiously.

I saw a teenager about twelve or thirteen years old kneeling at the door of the hospital, holding the leg of a five or sixty-year-old grandfather in his hands, crying and calling for a doctor to see his grandma.

"Doctor, please doctor, please go and show me, I have money, look, I have made money!" The boy said, holding the doctor's leg tightly with one hand, leaving a space He took out a small cloth bag from his bosom with one hand and opened it. There might be more than a dozen or twenty coins in it. He held it up and handed it to the doctor, wanting to give it to him.

The doctor sighed and said: "You child, I told you, your old man can't help it, his illness can't be cured, even if he goes, it's useless, he may only be here for a day or two Now, you, why don't you go back and watch over him, ah, see if he still has any unfinished wishes, and help him realize them."

The young man didn't know if he understood the doctor's words, so he just cried and said: "Doctor, go and have a look, please, I beg you. I kowtow to you, I kowtow to you..."

As he said that, the boy kowtowed, his head knocked on the ground, loudly, and after a while, his forehead turned red.

"Oh, you child, get up quickly, you... stop knocking." The doctor hurriedly bent down to pull him.

Someone next to him couldn't bear to look at it, so he said: "Doctor, you can go with him to have a look, this poor child, his forehead is red."

The doctor sighed, and said: "Hey, it's useless to go there. There is no cure for the medicine stone, and it's just a matter of a day or two. Why don't you take the money and give him the money to prepare for the funeral."

When everyone heard this, they shook their heads and sighed.

When Chang Hao saw him, he clung to his brother tightly and reached out to hug his brother's arm.Chang Le stretched out his hand to pat his younger brother, and put his hand around his shoulder.

Sensing the movements of the two brothers, Yu Qingze reached out and hugged Chang Le's shoulders to comfort him.

In the end, the doctor really had no choice but to say: "Okay, okay, son, I'll go and have a look with you."

Hearing this, the boy who was still kowtowing on the ground immediately got up, wiped away his tears, and took the doctor's hand to leave.

"Hey, wait, I'll take the medicine box." The doctor went into the medical hall to get the medicine box, and then followed the boy away.

The crowd gradually dispersed.

The three of them walked slowly towards the gate of the city. The previous excitement dissipated immediately, and they were still thinking about what they had just seen.

The world is impermanent, birth, old age, sickness and death can't be stopped, we can only cherish it while alive.

Early the next morning, they went out of the stall.The housekeeper of Zhao's house came to tell them that the master agreed to Yu Qingze's offer and asked them to do well.

Several people are very happy, this is another big order.Yu Qingze was already thinking about how to arrange the next thing.

Not long after, Chang Le came out with water and saw a person standing not far from the stall, staring at their stall, but he couldn't come.

Chang Le took a closer look, isn't this the boy I saw at the entrance of the medical hall yesterday evening?

He walked up to the boy and asked him if he wanted to buy something?

The boy seemed to be taken aback, and couldn't understand Chang Le's gesture, so he turned around and ran away.

Chang Le: ...

He sighed and went back to continue his work, but he kept it in mind and glanced over there from time to time.He always felt that the boy might not have gone far, and he would come over.

Sure enough, not long after, he saw the boy looking at their food stall again, with one hand in his pocket, as if hesitant.

Chang Le put down the bowl in his hand, wiped his hands, walked to Yu Qingze's side, and told him about the situation with gestures.

Yu Qingze understood, and looked over there, and sure enough, he saw the boy.

He waved at the young man, and the young man seemed to have finally made up his mind and walked to the food stand.

Yu Qingze asked softly: "Do you want to buy something to eat?"

The young man took a look at their stall. There were cold noodles and cold skin on it, and another snack cart, Guandong Boiled. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then looked up at Yu Qingze, and said, "Boss, I, I want to buy a bowl of this."

The boy pointed at Liangpi and said.

Yu Qingze nodded, and said, "Okay, you wait." Saying that, Yu Qingze was about to get some Liangpi.

"Wait, Boss." The boy called Yu Qingze again, reached out his hand to take out three Wen coins in embarrassment, and said, "I, I only have three Wen coins, just give me the three Wen coins."

Yu Qingze nodded with a smile, and said, "Okay." As he spoke, he placed the usual amount of five renminbi, and if he placed too much, he was afraid that the boy would be embarrassed if he saw it.

The young man looked at the cold noodle boiled in hot water, and said to Yu Qingze with a blushing face: "Boss, that, me, can I take it home to eat? I forgot to bring the bowl, but, but I will, at the latest, eat it this afternoon." Tomorrow morning, the bowl will be delivered to you, I promise."

As he spoke, the boy raised his right hand and raised three fingers, making an oath.

Yu Qingze nodded and said, "Yes."

"really?"

"Correct."

"Thank you, boss." Hearing Yu Qingze's agreement, the boy smiled and watched Yu Qingze make Liangpi with great anticipation.

A bowl of Liangpi was ready, the young man gave three Wen coins, and happily took it to leave.

At this time, the youngest selling tea eggs next to Yu Qingze's food stall called out to the boy.

"Jiabao, come here, have you eaten yet?"

The young man named Jiabao carefully held the cold noodle and replied, "Youngest Huang, I haven't eaten yet."

"Here, these two tea eggs are for you, take them to eat." The youngest took two tea eggs from the pot and gave them to the young man.

With tears in the boy's eyes, he took it and thanked him, "Thank you youngest."

"Good boy, let's go."

The boy put the tea eggs in his pocket, carefully carried the cold skin and left.
