Depressed little landlord

It’s not authentic charcoal grilling, but it’s not satisfactory, but some of them are also a matter of craftsmanship, but compared to sitting and waiting to eat, it seems to be quite interesting to bake by yourself. The taste is not very good, but everyone still eats very happily.

Even though Madam Xu took over the big job of grilling in the end (mainly because she didn't want to see them roasting and wasting like this), but Xiang Qingqiling and the others had almost done it from the beginning, so they consciously moved aside and put the main Make room.

On a small square table, four adults and one Douding sit together, but one side is leaning on the baking pan, and the opposite is Xu's mother, and Tian's wife is helping.

On the table was a plate of fried sauerkraut, a plate of roasted meat dishes, and a small can of wine, and Lin Xuan's homemade juice was in Douding.

Xiang Qing took a sip of the fruit wine, although it was not quite right to drink sweet wine after eating barbecue meat, but if you want to relieve your boredom, you can also have another mouthful of sauerkraut.

However, compared with white wine, he still likes the sweet taste of the former, but just like Lin Xuan said, women or some men also prefer this sweet taste.

"Master Lin is really giving people more and more surprises." Qi Ling also took a sip, and then suddenly said, looking at Lin Xuan with sincere eyes, "This is not at all the same as the Young Master Lin in my impression. .”

Lin Xuan was not angry, but said with a smile: "Really? It's actually not bad, but it was carefree before, not like now."

Shrugging with a smile, he continued: "The environment creates characters, and I was just lucky enough to meet them. Compared with those who started at a high point and made higher achievements, I am actually not at all. Not worth mentioning."

Qi Ling shook his head and said with a smile: "But if everyone is like you, they can start over again after a fall, which is very admirable." He raised his glass to salute him.

"Haha, thanks for your compliment." Lin Xuan accepted his words frankly, and lightly touched him with the cup.

The two took a sip at the same time, Lin Xuan put down the cup, "Actually, it depends on your help, if it weren't for you, even if I was working hard, I might not have the current result. Come, Young Master Qi, Xiang Qing, I, Lin Xuan A toast to you."

After finishing speaking, he raised his head and drank the rest without waiting for Xu Yang to stop him. Immediately, under the light of the fire and the oil lamp, his face was covered with a thin layer of red, and his eyes were moist with water.

"Okay, refreshing!" Qi Ling was also in a good mood. Seeing that Lin Xuan's cup had bottomed out, he proudly picked it up and finished it himself.

It was too late for Xiang Qing to stop him, so she could only look at him helplessly.

"Very good, you are my friend and Lin Xuan is committed." Lin Xuan laughed and stretched out his hand to pat him on the shoulder, and Qi Ling also stretched out his hand to pat him, and said with the same smile.

"That's right, you will be Qi's friend from now on."

Lin Qi and Lin Qi first looked at each other and smiled for a while, and then they stopped and sat there quietly by coincidence. Lin Xuan first glanced around, and suddenly grinned at Xu Yang.

Qi Ling didn't look at anything else, but when he looked carefully, his eyes were a little confused, and he slowly leaned on the person next to him.

Now everyone understands that this is all over the top.

Xiang Qing poked Xu Yang with his elbow, and said in a low voice, "This drink is really bad."

Xu Yang glanced at him, Qi Ling, who was looking at him, paused slightly and raised his eyebrows.

Xiang Qing rubbed his nose, put Qi Ling on his body, so that he could lean more comfortably, and said helplessly, "I wanted to talk to Xiaoxuan at first, how can we talk now?"

"You want to make this? After Xun'er finishes eating this, don't eat it." Xu Yang stroked the head of Douding, signaling him not to eat too much. He had already eaten a few skewers before. If he ate too much at once, his stomach would stink. Not feeling well.

"Oh." Lin Xun obediently took back the little meat claws that were going to continue to roast the next skewer, and silently picked up the special juice made by his brother for him to drink.

Xiang Qing also helped Lin Xun wipe his face, mainly because he ate his hands and face with oil and sauce.Then he looked at Xu Yang and nodded and said: "Yes, I think the ideas he came up with are very good. If he is willing, I would like to order some from you for this wine and this sauerkraut. These are very good for cooking. Not bad, but the way he is now..."

"can."

"I... what?"

Xu Yang lowered his head and smiled to look at Lin Xuan who was also squinting on his body, wondering if he was asleep or resting, and replied again: "I say yes."

"Really?" Xiang Qing also confirmed it again, but before Xu Yang glanced over, he quickly calmed down, "That's really great, I haven't released a new recipe for a while, this is good, just a year ago Can make a fortune."

"Well, it's fine if you think it's good. Xiaoxuan told me before that he made these with the intention of selling them somewhere. It's just that these are just trying to make them, so the quantity is not much. You only want them if you want them. few."

"That's no problem. As long as he agrees to sell it to me, it's easy to talk about. If not this year, next year, I can wait."

"Okay then," Xu Yang pointed to the wine jars on the table, and said, "A jar like this is [-] Wen, which is a catty, and sauerkraut is [-] Wen per catty, how about it?"

After hearing this, Xiang Qing agreed without even thinking about it: "Yes, at this price, I remember how many jars of this wine you have. Let me go back and try two jars."

"No problem, let's see when you go back. You can take the things back and try them first. If the response is good, we will talk about them later."

"Okay, so it's settled?"

"Ah."

Xiang Qing laughed, and followed Xu Yang for a drink, and then half-helped and half-coaxed each other back to the house, and the things in the yard were naturally cleaned up.

***

Just as Xu Yang helped wipe his face, he met a pair of clear eyes, but he didn't stop, and continued to help wipe his neck and hands carefully and gently.

"woke up."

Lin Xuan blinked, and hummed in response.

Xu Yang wiped it for him, and changed it to Douding, and Lin Xun obediently let him wash it with his little face up.

Lin Xuan put his feet away, hugged his knees with his hands, put his chin on them, stared at them, yawned for a while and asked, "I seem to have heard what you guys said about selling vegetables just now?"

"Yeah." Because Douding was scratched with both hands, Xu Yang simply stripped him naked. Fortunately, he had changed a basin of water before and scrubbed Douding all over his body.

While busy, he told Lin Xuan what he had talked to Xiang Qing before, "No accident, the wine you made is not afraid of going bad."

Lin Xuan was happy when he heard it, but he choked on the last sentence: "You just broke it."

After speaking, he couldn't help being happy. He was naturally happy that what he tried to make could make money. If the effect is good, this can also become a stable cooperation project.

As soon as I was happy, I couldn't help telling what I knew, maybe I was still a little drunk.

"Actually, this fruit wine is really good. Drinking it is good for your health. Drinking it can strengthen men's yang, and women can regulate their bodies. It is said that it can also promote pregnancy. Haha... sauerkraut is not good this year, but next year we can make a variety of it in advance. Some mustard greens, Chinese cabbage, or radishes can be pickled more, and the varieties will be more diverse, and..."

Listening to his eloquent talk, Xu Yang has been listening quietly, occasionally answering a sentence or two. Of course, Douding, who is still awake, will also ask, and then Lin Xuan will stop and give him a serious answer. explain.

Looking at one big and one small, Xu Yang only felt that his heart was full at the moment.

And Lin Xuan would occasionally look this way when he was talking, and would subconsciously smile at him every time, all of which he cherished so much.

***

After Xiang Qingqiling stayed at Lin's house for four days, he finally proposed to Lin Xuan and the others to return to the town, and Lin Xuan didn't want to keep him. There will be many opportunities to see each other in the future. This time, the two also came for several days. It's time to go back, and when I left, I brought two jars of wine, two small jars, and two small baskets of sauerkraut.

The former was for Xiang Qing to take home for a trial sale, while the latter two were for them to take home and eat by themselves.

They bid farewell at the entrance of the village with some reluctance, and Xiang Qing personally drove Qi Ling in a carriage, and the Qi family's carriage let him follow behind.

After the two people's carriage went away until they disappeared, Lin Xuan stretched, turned and walked back.

"Oh, the house is much quieter now."

"Gah~"

"The weather is as cold as it sounds, tsk."

"Ga~ga~~"

"..."

"Gah?"

Lin Xuan lowered his head, and immediately met Dabai's small round eyes. After looking at each other for a while, Lin Xuan stretched out his hand to stroke the goose's head and long neck calmly and said, "Hey, go play with your brother."

Dabai turned his head to look at him for a while, then swayed away with a squawk.

Lin Xuan: ...

"Xu Yang~"

"Cough!" Xu Yang touched his lips with his left fist, coughed to cover up his laughter, put his right hand on his shoulder and led him back. "Let's go back too. Didn't you say you still want to make that pen? I'll help you when you go back."

"Oh, yes, I think we can try it with bamboo." Hearing what he was currently trying, Lin Xuan immediately put Dabai Xiaobai behind him, and talked about his plan enthusiastically.

"If it's really done, I think it's quite useful, but I don't know if those who are used to brushes will refuse to use it, but let's ignore it for now, let's make it first."

"I still have to ask Mother Xu to see if she would like to make this barbecue sale, but if I do, I have to go to the town to set up a stall, Xu Yang, what do you think?"

“Delicious BBQ!”

A childish voice rang out from under the legs of the two of them. When they looked down, they saw Lin Xun was looking up at them. Lin Xuan was amused, holding his armpits with both hands, hugged him, and pinched his nose to tease him: "It's delicious, isn't it? Then we have to try our best to talk to Xu's mother, so that our family can have a lot of money after selling it."

Douding's eyes lit up, and he nodded sharply, his expression was very similar to his at certain times.

Accidentally meeting Xu Yang's thought-provoking gaze, Lin Xuan touched his nose in embarrassment.

What if I accidentally turned Douding into a miser?

When Lin Xuan asked Mama Xu to talk, Mama Xu didn't say she disagreed, nor did she say she was willing, but they all fell silent.

"Mother Xu, did my method embarrass everyone?" Lin Xuan looked at their silence and asked carefully after a while.

Seeing him like this, Xu's mother hurriedly said: "No, Eldest Young Master. It's not that this old slave doesn't want to, it's just this... Eldest Young Master, forgive this old slave for talking too much, will this really work?"

Lin Xuan realized what she was worried about when she heard it, and couldn't help laughing: "Mother Xu, don't worry about this, you all tasted it last night, how do you think it tastes?"

"not bad."

"pretty good."

"delicious!"

All the servants present expressed their feelings one after another, and even Butler Hua nodded in agreement, and Mother Xu felt a little relieved.

"Then, if the eldest young master really wants to do it, then do it, but there are not many vegetables in winter."

"I know, this year will be like this for the time being. After we sort out the land next year, there will be a lot more things than now. The main reason is that the seasoning will depend on you, Mama Xu, and Mrs. Tian. If you can call out Better and more unique seasonings, that's even better, and I will reward you then."

Mother Xu was fine, but Mrs. Tian was already beaming with joy and thanked her repeatedly.

Lin Xuan waved his hand and said: "You guys go to prepare first. If you need anything, you can ask Grandpa Hua. Then Xu Yang and I will prepare it. As for who to send, you can also discuss it yourself or recommend yourself, anyway. There is not a lot of work at home this winter, and when Xu Yang and I discuss the regulations, we will start, and I hope everyone will work hard to make this family a better life."

"Yes, sir."

Butler Hua waved his hand, "Okay, let's all go down, and do whatever we need to do."

Only then did the others exit the main room and went to their own business.

After everyone left, Steward Hua looked at Lin Xuan and Xu Yang, and sighed for a while.

"Grandpa, what's wrong?"

Recently busy with this and that, Lin Xuan only now remembered that it seemed that he hadn't talked to the old man for a while, and seeing him like this now, he couldn't help asking worriedly.

It was Xu Yang, who also looked at him with concern.

Steward Hua looked at this, then at that, before speaking after a while: "I said you two don't know how to restrain yourself."

"what?"

Lin Xuan and Xu Yang looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Grandpa, what's the matter with us? We haven't caused any trouble recently."

"..." Steward Hua took a breath, and it took him a long time to let out a long breath, "I mean you two are like this, it's fine in the past, after all, they are all people who know the basics, but now there are several more people in the family. ? You still..."

"What's the matter?" Lin Xuan still didn't understand. At this time, Xu Yang pressed slightly on his shoulder, and he hurriedly looked up. Xu Yang gave him a reassuring smile.

"Grandpa means that I shouldn't be living in the same room with you now."

? ...!!!

Lin Xuan looked at Xu Yang with eyes that were confused and puzzled at first, and then he was speechless and embarrassed when suddenly realized. The expression on his face completely explained his heart, from white to reddish as usual to flushed.

"cough!"

Butler Hua had to cough to remind the two people on the opposite side that there was a third person present here at the moment.Then when the two looked over, they reminded them empathetically, "People's words are awesome."

"But Xu Yang, I have already restored him to his freedom." Lin Xuan murmured speechlessly before the red tide on his face faded.

Xu Yang pinched his red earlobe, and said with a smile: "Others may not be clear."

"Cough~" Butler Hua could only cough once more, Xu Yang looked over calmly.

"Grandpa, rest more if you feel uncomfortable. Don't be too tired. There are enough people in the family now."

Flower Butler: "..."

Lin Xuan: ...Pfft!

Butler Hua: "You bastard! From today onwards, when will you get married and share the same room! You kid will clean up the room by yourself later!"

Xu Yang: "..."

Lin Xuan: ...Puff haha!
