The daily life of a farmer through farming

My son Bai Shui, this letter was written by your mother while you were reading and falling asleep. My mother has become more and more unwell recently, and she was afraid that you would not be able to wait until the day you get married and have children, so she wrote this book in advance.

In the past, my mother always complained about being unkind, but ignored you. Now that I think about it carefully, it is the greatest blessing for my mother to be able to give birth to you. You are the best blessing bestowed on me by God.

Mother doesn't know whether you will be good at sword dancing or ink painting when you grow up, but no matter what you do, just remember, and mother will silently support you.

The most regretful thing my mother has ever done in her life is to be fooled by your father. He married me only for the useless food cheats. Your father, in the end, was only in exchange for his ups and downs, and now that mother has seen his face clearly, naturally she will not give this thing to him.

This cheat book is now put into your most precious mahogany box by your mother, as well as the jade lock left by your grandfather. If you find these things when you grow up, then hide them and never let you His father found that he was an insatiable person, and only poverty could make him sober.

My son, have you grown up now?How tall?Already married?If you have someone by your side, don't bully them, and don't hurt your loved ones like your father did.

If there is a lover, you must cherish it.

Mother really doesn't want you to see this letter, mother really wants to dig out this box when she is old, tear up this letter and give you the secret book and jade pendant, but this is just mother's dream.

My son, this food cheat book is the gourmet recipes recorded by your grandfather when he traveled abroad. This book was originally mother’s dowry, but unfortunately it ruined mother’s life. If you are not good at cooking, then burn it. Let others find out that this thing will attract evil.

Finally, I hope you will cherish it in the future.

Holding the two pieces of letter paper in his hand, Bai Shui shed tears when he saw the final signature. Maybe it was the instinctive reaction of this body, or maybe it was the care and love in this letter that moved him.

"White water?" Lu Yu closed the box and continued to ask, "What should I do with these things?"

Bai Shui came back to his senses, and let Lu Yu wipe away his tears, "Take it back to the house and hide it. According to the letter, it must not be handed over to the Bai family."

Hearing this, Lu Yu immediately put the letter in Bai Shui's hand into the mahogany box, picked up the box and trotted into his main room.

Bai Shui followed closely, went into the room and looked at the cheats in the box, and couldn't help but be surprised. Unexpectedly, in this country of steaming and cooking civilization, there are already extremely systematic cooking methods. The cooking method of the dish, as well as the extremely detailed carving tutorial.

Bai Shui thought of the special skills of his own fish, so he handed the cheat book to Lu Yu, "Do you see if this carving method is the same as your wood carving method?"

Lu Yu took the cheat book, studied it for a while, then looked up at Bai Shui, and said pleasantly, "I didn't expect this carving to be used on food!"

"Can you learn it?"

"Yes! But I can't understand some characters, you have to help me." Lu Yu's voice was getting weaker and weaker, for fear that Bai Shui would criticize him for not being good at learning and practicing calligraphy.

Bai Shui glanced at Lu Yu dotingly, poked Lu Yu's forehead with his fingers, and said, "I told you not to work hard." Then he sat beside Lu Yu and began to study cooking methods together.

Bai Shui and Lu Yu studied the secret recipe all night, and finally found that there are many modern seasonings that can be prepared by combining other seasonings of this era. Even though Bai Shui can cook some stir-fried dishes, it is inferior to this secret recipe Quite a lot.

After breakfast in the morning, Bai Shui led Lu Yu to the town, he wanted to go to Yipinzhai to try the cooking skills he learned last night.

In the past few days, Wenyue didn't go to town with Baishui and the others in an ox cart, and Baishui didn't ask. Everyone has taboos and scruples, maybe it's the Gu family who is afraid of losing their daughter.

As long as Bai Shui is with Lu Yu, everything will be beaten to death, but the difference is that he can't see Wen Yue, which hurts the lovesick Xiao Lan.

Xiao Lan counted the red beans in the kitchen all morning, Bai Shui couldn't stand it anymore, so he asked Xiao Lan what happened after saving Wen Yue that day, "We broke up that day, and you didn't say anything to Wen Yue?"

Xiao Lan said weakly, "What can I say, even if she wants to talk, her mother won't let me. I always feel that Wenyue's mother doesn't like me very much."

"Probably because they are somewhat repulsive to the children of rich families!"

Xiao Lan was unhappy when she heard this, and complained, "Why do people in the world always care about their status and the so-called right family, as long as they like each other."

"Hey, I don't have any scruples. Just think about Wenyue's mother. Let me put it harshly. You have to work harder for your marriage with Wenyue." Bai Shui felt sorry for his brother from the bottom of his heart.

Bai Shui was thinking to continue talking, when Lu Yu walked into the kitchen, searching for things back and forth beside Bai Shui.

Before Bai Shui could ask a question, Xiao Lan asked curiously, "Little Fisherman, what are you looking for? Let us help you find it."

Lu Yu didn't look up, and continued to search in the kitchen, not forgetting to say something, "I want to find something like a radish, and I want to try my craft."

When Bai Shui heard it, he knew that Lu Yu was going to try carving, and began to help Lu Yu find things that could be used for carving. The secret book once recorded that watermelon, pumpkin, and winter melon are suitable for food carving. , and vegetables such as gourds and radishes.

Bai Shui saw the white radish standing in the corner, and held it in front of Lu Yu's eyes, "That's all, I'll ask them to help you buy some other vegetables later."

Xiao Lan couldn't understand what the two people in front of him were doing, so he asked in a daze, "What are you guys doing?"

"My husband asked me to use my carving skills on this white radish."

"Huh? Why use it on radishes." Xiao Lan became more and more confused the more he listened.

Until the end, Lu Yu carved a green and white rich peony out of white radish, and put it on the braised fish that Baishui had just made. Xiao Lanfang understood that this dish also needs embellishment.

The red, burnt-smelling braised carp, against the background of blue and white peony flowers, looks more attractive, making people move their index fingers. The fresh fragrance of braised carp and the fragrance of radish match each other, attracting people's eager taste buds.

Xiao Lan looked at the braised carp on the table for a long time, until Xiao Er took the braised carp away, then she came back to her senses and exclaimed, "You two are indeed lucky stars of Yipinzhai, one of you can cook, One will be embellished with carving patterns, how lucky I am to know you two."

When Bai Shui saw Xiao Lan's exaggeratedly moved appearance, he hurriedly said, "Don't say that, you also provide us with a chance to make money, we just work hard to live a good life together."

"That's right, I'll try to get closer to you, and then life will be more fulfilling." Xiao Lan joked, then looked at Lu Yu again, and said, "Why didn't Mr. Yu discover this earlier. "

Lu Yu glanced at Baishui, and then answered Xiao Lan, "I also had a whim when I was doing woodcarving yesterday, and my family Baishui supported me, so I dared to make such a mistake."

"Don't say anything wrong. This is a good thing. In the future, if you have any good ideas, just play with your Baishui. If you lose it, I'll be fine."

Following Xiao Lan's words, there was bursts of laughter in the kitchen until the waiter in charge ran into the kitchen.

Xiao Er's face was covered in sweat from running, and he didn't even have time to wipe it off, so he said in a panic, "No, it's not good, the two masters."

Xiao Lan saw that the waitress in the shop was half-talking, so she asked sharply, "Say something quickly, there is no half-truth to say."

The waiter picked up the sweat towel hanging around his neck, wiped his face, and then said, "Many people want to order that dish made by Boss Bai, but what should we do?"

"What can be done, naturally write down one by one, Boss Bai will take care of it."

Seeing that Xiao Lan sent Xiao Er away, Bai Shui said to Xiao Lan, "It seems to be not bad, but there seems to be not enough carp in our shop."

"It's okay, I'll take someone to buy it, it's just hard work for you and the little fisherman."

Bai Shui waved his hands indifferently after hearing this, and said to Xiao Lan, "Go!"

After Xiao Lan left, Bai Shui breathed a sigh of relief. As early as when Xiao Er ran into the kitchen, he thought the diners would not buy it. Seeing that the reaction is not bad, he turned around and said to Lu Yu, "Come on, let's The two of you are busy again."

When Baishui turned around with his mouth pursed, Lu Yu smiled so much that his eyes turned into small crescents. He likes to be with his own Baishui the most. My own craftsmanship can finally enter the interior with great fanfare!

Bai Shui ordered the other cooks to handle the ingredients, but he didn't see Lu Yu's smiling face and his little thoughts, but he was in a good mood and let Lu Yu follow behind him like a little tail.

Lu Yu has always been careful in doing things, but now holding a big radish can concentrate so much that he doesn't even care about Bai Shui. Now Bai Shui is quite cooperative, and he doesn't cause trouble to Lu Yu, and cooks the dishes on the sidelines.

Not long after, Lu Yu spoke, "Bai Shui, isn't it a bit boring to always carve the same peony flower?"

Bai Shui turned his head, looked at Lu Yu's confused face, and said softly, "It's up to you, you can carve whatever you like, there is no fixed form, and you should take a rest first, I can see what you see in your eyes." It's bloodshot."

Concentrating on one thing often, especially in the field of sculpture, always staring at a small thing with full concentration is very hurtful to the eyes.

Thinking of this, Bai Shui ignored Lu Yu's refusal, snatched the carving knife from Lu Yu's hand, and now Bai Shui put the big carrot in his hand on the table.

Bai Shui wanted to take Lu Yu out to get some fresh air, but he didn't expect to see a very familiar face in a corner of Yipinzhai. Bai Shui looked at it for a long time but couldn't give his name.

"Isn't that Wenyue's new friend, little stutterer?"

Lu Yu's words made Bai Shui suddenly realize that this is what Wenyue introduced to him a few days ago, the little sister in need stammered.

The little stutterer was still the same as usual, when he saw them and took a look, he lowered his head again as if afraid.

Xiao Jieba is not dressed in coarse linen as he first saw him, but now he is dressed a little more elegantly, with pink clothes and two small buns, finally he has the playfulness of a girl of the same age.

It's just a little stammer. Where's the money to buy these new clothes?Bai Shui remembered that Wen Yue said that she was also sold to someone else, and Bai Shui took Lu Yu closer with doubts, wanting to find out.
