Jiangyu Mufeng

Chapter 17 Leaving Doesn't Mean Ending

After finishing the matter of buying the land, it can be regarded as a major matter for Du Jianfeng, and the next step is to make other foods instead of cold cakes.

Du Jianfeng thought for a while. There were very few pastries in this era. Although there is no record of this era in history, according to Du Jianfeng’s observation, it should be a very old era. Stir-fried dishes have not yet appeared here. Yes, sweet-scented osmanthus cakes also appeared in the Ming Dynasty, and what many modern people don’t know is that peppers, tomatoes, peanuts, etc. are all exotic species. People here can only put pepper if they want something spicy, and there is no pepper. .No matter how powerful Du Jianfeng is, he can't conjure the seeds of these things out of thin air, so if he wants to make peanut oil, tomato sauce, chili sauce, etc., it's out of the question.

After much deliberation, the sweet-scented osmanthus hasn’t bloomed yet, so it’s not the right time to make sweet-scented osmanthus cakes. Why don’t we make hair cakes and red bean cakes first? Firstly, in an era without technology, these two things are easy to make, and secondly, they are also easy to eat. delicious.

Back home, Du Jianfeng talked to his family about the purchase of land. They all knew that he had hunted wolves and exchanged them for silver. We had already discussed the purchase of land, so they were not very surprised, but happy. Emotions still spread from each of them.Seeing everyone happy, Du Jianfeng felt a little melancholy, he will leave here soon, although the dream was illusory, but Du Jianfeng himself is such a special person who came from another world, of course he believed in the monk's words in the dream words.

Du Jianfeng worked at home for a whole day before making hair cakes and red bean cakes. In the afternoon, the three cold cake sellers all came back with burdens. Du Jianfeng invited them to come and taste his new products. , all expressed their confidence in this food, and it will definitely not sell worse than cold cakes.

"Ah Feng, what is in your head?" Huang Sheng said, "Why do you seem to have suddenly enlightened, and you are giving us surprises one after another."

"Exactly!" Huang Zhiqiang echoed, "It's amazing."

Du Jianfeng just smiled, and then asked Wang Jun beside him: "Is your mother feeling better recently?"

Speaking of this, Wang Jun smiled, his face brightened, and he said: "I recently made money selling cold cakes, and I took medicine for my mother. She is much better, and our family can eat some meat now and then. This is thanks to Du Ge."

"What are you talking about?" Du Jianfeng waved his hands, and said, "After I sell the recipe for cold cakes, you will start selling the hair cakes and red bean cakes at the same price as before."

Several people nodded and had no objection, and began to chat about the situation at home after selling cold cakes, expressing that they were much better.Seeing that they can make money, Du Jianfeng was also happy for them.When several people were chatting vigorously, a voice suddenly shouted from outside the yard: "Brother, are you here?"

As soon as Huang Sheng heard the voice, he immediately looked towards the gate of the courtyard. Seeing that it was indeed his younger brother Huang Qiu, he called him in.

"This is my younger brother Huang Qiu." Huang Sheng said to Du Jianfeng, "I guess he came to play with your husband."

Seeing that Shuang'er, who was about the same age as Mu Jiangyu, was looking at him curiously, Du Jianfeng couldn't help but smiled, and said, "Xiaoyu is in the house, you can go find him."

Huang Qiu nodded and walked in. In fact, he didn't know Mu Jiangyu, he only knew that there was such a person. At first, he sympathized with Mu Jiangyu for marrying Du Jianfeng, because Du Jianfeng listened to his grandma too much and knew it all day long. Doing things, being manipulated to death by others, I don't know when I will turn over in this life.But in a blink of an eye, Du Jianfeng turned around, not only made life easier for his own family, but also led to other families, such as his own family. Since his eldest brother went to sell cold cakes, he can earn seventy or eighty yuan a day, and the family gradually has After eating meat, he and his younger sister can also wear new clothes, and Dad's health is much better.

The house is very old, Huang Qiu walked into the room and saw a pair of children about his age carefully handling a stack of rice paper, seeing him coming, the pair opened their eyes in surprise and said: "You are? "

Huang Qiu thought that his elder brother had benefited from Du Jianfeng, and asked him to accompany Mu Jiangyu, so he came over. He didn't want to come out at first, and it was a bit embarrassing to see strangers, but when he saw Mu Jiangyu, it was not like that I think this twin is good-looking and very kind.

"My name is Huang Qiu, and I'm Huang Sheng's younger brother." Huang Qiu said, "I'm here to play with you, is that okay?"

Mu Jiangyu was very happy when he heard that, and said, "That's great! I don't have any friends here, and no one wants to play with me."

Huang Qiu said: "Then I will often come to you to play in the future. What do you usually do? Your family also bought rice paper? Does anyone want to write?"

"Yes, my husband said he would teach me to write and settle accounts." Mu Jiangyu said, and when he mentioned Du Jianfeng, his face was full of smiles.Huang Qiu was a little envious, and said: "Your husband is so kind to you."

The joy on Mu Jiangyu's face could hardly be concealed. He took out the small snacks that Du Jianfeng usually bought for him, such as preserved fruit, candied fruit and caramel, to entertain his first good friend he made in Guanghua Village.

The two twins quickly found a common topic, chatting more happily than the men in the yard outside.

After dinner, Du Jianfeng really started to teach Mu Jiangyu how to read and write as he said. Mu Jiangyu insisted on learning Du Jianfeng's name first. He read the three characters "Du Jianfeng" back and forth many times, and then Start learning to write.

Learning to write at the beginning is always unsatisfactory, but Du Jianfeng knows that it will get better after a long time, so he is not in a hurry.

Two days later, Du Jianfeng first went to the mountain to collect herbs, and then went to the town to bring them to Xiao Fang. Now he is not collecting herbs for making money, because Dr. Xiao has no one who collects herbs all year round. Own a meager strength.After that, he found Liu Ji Pastry and expressed his willingness to sell the recipe. The boss of Liu Ji was also decisive and gave him 50 taels of silver on the spot. You can ask me any questions."

"Okay!" Liu remembered such a money-making baby, so he was naturally very happy, and smiled at Du Jianfeng.

Cold cakes are no different from other pastries, like hair cakes and red bean cakes, others can definitely figure out how to make them after eating them for a while, but cold cakes are different. Although the recipe of cold cakes is extremely simple, some things are beyond the knowledge of the ancients after all. .

Now Du Jianfeng has the money to start building a house. Even if the two silver coins can't completely make the house look like he had in mind, but he has a way to make money in his hand, so he is not afraid that he will not be able to make money in the future. You can first build a comfortable place to live in, and then continue to expand while making money.Even if he returns to his own place by then, the people here can live a comfortable and rich life.

After returning to the village, Du Jianfeng discussed with his family members, first draw the basic drawings by himself, and then choose an auspicious day to start work.

Du Jianfeng also told He Xuelian and Mu Jiangyu how to make hair cakes and red bean cakes. They were the two of them making hair cakes and red bean cakes these days, and Du Jianfeng himself was running around looking for someone to build a house for him.

Lin Xi was very happy for Du Jianfeng when he heard that he was going to build a house, and recommended many people to him enthusiastically, including where to buy bricks and tiles, who is skilled in building houses, and who is a carpenter. This information was very useful to Du Jianfeng, he wrote it down one by one, and then went to these people to do things for him.

Of course, the wages are based on the local tradition, he can add a little more, and also include a lunch. When the workers heard that there was such a good thing, they were very willing to do things for him, so on the day chosen by He Xuelian, the Du family The house is finally under construction.

The big news about building a house cannot be concealed. As soon as the construction started, the news of Du Jianfeng buying land and building a house spread throughout the village. The broken-mouthed person went to Du's house to ask Mrs. Wang and Du Zhongmin, and they kicked him out after saying Du Jianfeng's name.

The Du family's family has had an extremely miserable time. They thought about it and didn't even understand why Du Jianfeng made a mistake and became what he is today?Obviously before, he was just an honest farmer doing things for his family. Why does he seem to be good at hunting and doing business now, and he even studies and eats by himself, which was never possible before.

But the fire will return to the fire, and they can only watch Du Jianfeng get better day by day, while they still have a lot of mess.

Because He Xuelian had to cook lunch for the workers, Du Jianfeng and Mu Jiangyu were responsible for making hair cake and red bean cake. Du Jianwen and Du Damin also went to build a house, which also saved their wages.

Every day, Du Jianfeng and Mu Jiangyu would cook cakes for half a day. In the afternoon, Du Jianfeng would go to the new house to help. After dinner, Du Jianfeng would teach Mu Jiangyu how to read and write. and settle accounts till they fall asleep.

As the night of the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th was getting closer, Du Jianfeng began to feel strong anxiety. For more than a month, he got along very well with the members of the Du family. In his previous life, he was often away from home. His parents are also very concerned about him, but they have never been together day and night like this. Here, he feels the warmth of family affection.And Mu Jiangyu, that young man who has only him in his heart and eyes, if he really leaves, what will Mu Jiangyu do?

"Husband, why are you sighing?" Mu Jiangyu lay beside Du Jianfeng, tilting his head to look at him, the dark night made Mu Jiangyu's eyes brighter.

Du Jianfeng turned to face him, and said, "Xiaoyu, what will you do if I become the old me again?"

"The old you?" Mu Jiangyu was stunned for a moment, and said, "The old you who didn't like me but only liked Zhao Chunyan?"

This time, Du Jianfeng was stunned. He didn't expect that Mu Jiangyu's focus was on this. He thought Mu Jiangyu would ask him if he was the Du Jianfeng who knew nothing but worked in the fields, but I didn't expect him What he cared about was that he didn't like himself and only liked Zhao Chunyan in the past.But Mu Jiangyu also got to the point, if that Mu Jiangyu really came back, then indeed, he only likes Zhao Chunyan.

Du Jianfeng took a deep breath and said, "It's the me I used to be. I can't do anything, I can't make hair cakes, I can't teach you how to write, and I like Zhao Chunyan."

"But..." Mu Jiangyu's voice trailed off: "I heard that Zhao Chunyan is going to get married next month, husband, can you forget her, I have memorized the method of making hair cake and red bean cake, you won't also It doesn't matter, as long as you don't like her, it doesn't matter if you don't know anything."

Du Jianfeng used to have very simple emotions. In the past, he couldn't understand what it was like in the novel that "I overturned the five-flavored bottle, sour, sweet, bitter, hot, and salty". He felt that your mood is sweet or bitter, how can you mix it? What about so many other things?But at this moment, he understands that on the one hand, there is the era he is familiar with, with his closest relatives, his best brothers, his unrevenged revenge, and the undiscovered truth; on the other hand, his family members who have gradually adapted and budding love.

Yes, it is love.

Du Jianfeng can't lie to himself now that his feelings for Mu Jiangyu are just the feelings of an ordinary brother for his younger brother. He has already started to have dangerous thoughts about Mu Jiangyu, and Mu Jiangyu moved himself into his arms when he was sleeping at night. During the day, he will start to have thoughts and have beautiful dreams.

But he obviously only stayed here for more than a month, he can completely regard everything that happened here as a wonderful trip, everyone will have such a trip in their life, right?During this journey, you will meet the person you wanted to meet before, and you will have a wonderful affair like a dream, that person will appear in front of you with all the good things, and tell you that there is such a person in the world , he does not belong to you, but he will leave an indelible mark in your life.

Du Jianfeng tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. In the middle of the night, while Mu Jiangyu was fast asleep, he got up and lit a candle, spread out the rice paper and wrote something for Du Jianwen.

In this family, Du Damin is too honest. He Xuelian and Mu Jiangyu are two women, and it is not convenient to do things. Only Du Jianwen is the one who can support the whole family after him. When Du Jianwen can read next year, he will understand the contents of this letter.

In the letter, Du Jianfeng told Du Jianwen that if he changed in the future, then let Du Jianwen be in charge of the family and ask him to treat Mu Jiangyu better, and if he himself treats Mu Jiangyu badly, let Du Jianwen beat him up directly.In the end, he wrote down some other dim sum recipes and the way the Du family will make money in the future, and he was satisfied.
