Bastards are difficult

Zhang Xiu teased Jiang Mingbo for a while, went to see Jiang Minghuai, and then went straight home.

Anyway, everyone in Prince Jing's residence knew that the three children Zhang Xiu, Jiang Minghao, and Jiang Mingbo didn't get along with Jiang Mingze, and Zhang Xiu had a childish temper, and he didn't like to talk to him if he didn't like it.It was normal for him to go to see anyone, but it was not normal to go to see Jiang Mingze, so Zhang Xiu didn't bother to scold him.

When I went back, I went to see Gao Jin’s injuries first—I was too busy giving gifts to stimulate people last time, so I forgot to look at the injuries—maybe it’s because of my experience as a warrior. Seeing that the wound was healing well, Zhang Quan felt relieved.

In this situation, the courses at Prince Jing's Mansion obviously cannot continue. Prince Jing's Mansion also sent someone to say that this course will not be held this year. As for the future, they did not say anything.

The classes at Prince Jing's Mansion were not attended, but Zhang Xiu herself did not relax.

Official children, even though they can get a good job by relying on the shadow of their parents even if they don't take the imperial examination, after all, they are not as good as those who passed the exam by themselves.

Zhang Xiu has always believed in taking what he wants by himself. If he is the only boy in the family, it would be nice to be a dandy, but one is that he doesn't want to be a dandy, and the other is that he has a younger brother who is born in the first place.

Father Zhang Qian looked at his second younger brother now, he had seen it before, but now this kind of look belonged to his elder brother Zhang Lun.

Zhang Xiu felt a little sour in his heart, Zhang Qian didn't treat him badly, but it was this kind of treatment that made him understand that the relationship between his father and his aunt was harmonious, and that's what he said.

So I seized the time to play and cultivate relationships with my younger brother Zhang Luo.

In Zhang Xiu's mind, he is an adult anyway, and he has received his father's love anyway, at least he knows what a father's love is like, but the younger brother has always been the one who is ignored, although there is nothing wrong with him materially.

Zhang Xiu didn't want his younger brother, who was a compatriot, to become extreme when he grew up. Anyway, as the old saying goes, an older brother is like a father. Since Zhang Qian's father's love is not redundant, at least he can raise his younger brother as a son.

These subtle emotions don't take up much time in his daily life.

Even though Zhang Qian had a more loving son-in-law, Zhang Xiu did not relax in his studies. Zhang Xiu was forced to study for two hours every morning, practice calligraphy for two hours, take a half-hour lunch break after lunch, and then practice martial arts for two hours. In the rest of the time, I will play with my younger sister Zhang Suxin, and sometimes play with my two younger brothers.

Zhang Lun and Zhang Luo are now eight months old and seven months old. They have just learned to sit and are trying to learn to crawl. A poke in the face is a hole, and it recovers as soon as it is released, which is really fun.

Zhang Suxin's latest hobby is reading to her two younger brothers, such as "Hundred Surnames", "Thousand Characters", "Sound Enlightenment" and Tang Poetry and Song Ci. Once Zhang Xiu heard the little girl read to them " The Classic of Mountains and Seas, The Three Emperors and Five Emperors, etc. made Zhang Xiu laugh.

But Zhang Xiu also had one more thing, which was to tell idiom stories to the three children, such as crows drinking water, sitting in the well, watching the sky and learning to walk in Handan. Once Zhang Qian saw him telling stories to the three children, he deliberately eavesdropped for a while.

The talk that time happened to be unfounded and worrying. Zhang Xiu first explained the original meaning, and then started to fool around. Thinking ten thousand times would be better than doing it once, Zhang Qian stood up because he couldn't stand it.

Naturally, Zhang Xiu was punished, but Zhang Qian also said that he can continue to talk, but it needs to be sorted into a book, but at the same time, he needs to write [-] more sheets in large characters every day.

The bitter Zhang Xiu went to Hang to cry about the atrocities of the cheap father, which made Hang laugh and laugh, and the demeanor of being a housewife disappeared.Aunt Yu almost grabbed her ears and taught her a lesson.

Zhang Xiu naturally wrote to Jiang Minghao to complain, and by the way, taught the farmer, the snake, the tortoise and the hare race, Mr. Dong Guo and the wolf Little Red Riding Hood, etc. in the form of questions. Now, how can a tortoise outrun a rabbit and a wolf? How can a wolf talk? Could it be that the farmer is a fool? It is very contrary to the words of the sage and the sage, ask Zhang Xiu, if Zhang Xiu just said that he doesn’t understand, then remember it, and you will understand when you grow up.

Zhang Xiu didn't know what Jiang Minghao's world view that was taking shape would become under his nonsense. What he was worried about now was how to find a job for Gao Jin.

Maybe it's because of her better mood, coupled with her proper medication, Gao Jin has recovered very well, and now she can occasionally go out for a walk with the help of a cane, and can even use the cane to make gestures a few times.

Zhang Xiu went to visit Gao Jin several times. Although Gao Jin didn't say anything, he could tell that Gao Jin was eager to see what Zhang Xiu had arranged for him so that he could find his own position. The faster Zao Gaojin can let go.

But Zhang Xiu really didn't think about doing business. It stands to reason that the best business is to engage in fur business. The fur bought here for 1000 taels of silver can be sold for at least 5000 taels of silver in the capital, especially with the connections of Prince Jing's Mansion and Qian's family. He can easily get the prey of those soldiers. The problem is that he doesn't have that much capital. If he can get a little at a time, he might as well not do it.

The second is the catering business. Unfortunately, he is not a foodie, and he doesn't have any good recipes. He can't do something like braised eggplant with fish-flavored shredded pork, right?Even if he does these things, he can't handle it well. He can mix up to two kinds of dishes together when he cooks by himself. As long as the dishes are complicated, he will be blinded immediately.Hot pot is easy, but it's not suitable for summer. Seeing that the weather is getting hotter, we can't let everyone eat hot pot around the stove in summer, right?Besides, a hot pot without chili is like a meal without salt. He doesn't know if chili has been introduced to China at this time, anyway, he has never seen it.

Then there are rouge and gouache clothing. Sorry, he is not a chemist, and he has never courted his girlfriend, nor is he a fashion designer, and he has never watched fashion shows, so he doesn't understand at all.

In the end, the catering business is still simpler.

But it's hard to say what kind of food to eat. If the weather here is so weird in Hyundai, he can actually open an ice cream shop, at least he can also be a cold drink shop if he can't open an ice cream shop. Hey, wait a minute.

Zhang Xiu suddenly thought of the cold noodle that is everywhere now. A bowl of cold noodle needs only cucumbers. In summer, there are still fresh fruits and vegetables here, and the drink should be served with freshly squeezed juice. This juicer has to find a way To make it out, the most important thing is that he can make this Liangpi.

When he earns enough taels of silver, he will go into the fur business, and occasionally sell a few live animals, such as bobcats, wild leopards, blue horses, chicken blood pheasants, etc., which are also very beautiful and should sell well. price.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiu immediately became excited. Nima is not useless as a time traveler, so he just said, how could he be so useless? It turns out that God is here waiting for him.

However, tossing the cold skin also requires special tools, at least the steamer for steaming the cold skin needs to be customized first, and what’s more, the current noodles are all stone-milled, which is not as good as machine-ground to remove the fineness of the skin, so I don’t know how to make it How does it taste.

As soon as he thought of it, Zhang Xiu immediately called Mingyan to grind the ink and draw the picture. He tore it up as soon as he finished the picture. Speaking of the iron steamer, in the era without stainless steel, would we eat rust?It's better to use a porcelain plate, there is a large disk with a diameter of [-] cm, such a cold skin can also make a bowl - a large steamer and a large cold skin mean that one can make two bowls, it is not as cheap as a plate.

Zhang Xiu didn't dare to mess around in her own kitchen, so she went to Zhang Quan's small yard.

Although Zhang Quan and the others lived in the Zhang Mansion, they not only had their own small courtyard, but also had their own small kitchen. After Gao Jin was injured, the original maid became two, and one was in charge of cooking and had his own servant. , who is in charge of sending rumors to buy and tidy up the yard or something.

Zhang Xiu was not polite to Zhang Quan either, she went directly to the kitchen and kicked the cook out, then began to make cold skin according to the steps in memory, and finally asked the cook to help light the fire.

Zhang Xiu broke out in a sweat after tossing and tossing for a long time, and finally got into the steamer, and the gluten was steamed together.

Gao Jin followed him all the time, and when he saw that he was idle, he asked curiously: "What are you doing, young master? People say that a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, but you don't care."

Zhang Xiu said disapprovingly: "If a gentleman has the ability, don't eat the food from the kitchen. Don't be too thorough. Didn't I tell you before that I want you to help me with things? Help me make money. I will open a snack bar and you will be the shopkeeper. "

Gao Jin said: "What is a snack bar?"

Zhang Xiu waved his hand: "It's just food, oh, you'll find out later, we only sell one kind of food."

While talking, the cold skin had already been steamed. Zhang Xiu instructed the cook to cut some cucumber shreds and carrot shreds, and made some mung bean sprouts, because he couldn’t wait to soak the cold skin in cold water, then cut into strips and put them in bowls, and put cucumber shreds and carrot shreds on it Mung bean sprouts are chopped gluten, put salt and vinegar, sesame oil and some fried sesame seeds.

Then he brought it out and put it on the stone table in the middle of the courtyard, proudly saying: "Taste it, come on, try it quickly."

Zhang Quangao Jin Mingyan tried his kindness, but the taste was mediocre, but it was very refreshing. It's not bad to eat on a hot day.

After Gao Jin finished eating, he hesitated and said, "You won't just let me sell this thing, will you?"

Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "How do you feel about eating this on a hot day? It's more filling than melons and fruits. Isn't it good to eat it overnight on a hot day?"

Zhang Quan was also very puzzled: "Can this thing make money?" They watched the whole process just now. This method is extremely simple, and anyone can learn it.

Zhang Xiu smiled and said: "We don't rely on this to make a fortune. We just buy and sell with a hammer. Don't worry, you won't suffer a loss. If you only do this, you will look down on me too much. We are only making the first sum of money. Besides, Not only that."

He also bought a manual juicer. The current anti-rust technology is still good. Anyway, if it is commonly used, it will not rust much. For details, refer to the commonly used iron pan for cooking.

When the time comes, freshly squeezed fruit juice and cold noodle soup will not be popular, but it will be real if you can make money.

Zhang Xiu knew that it was okay after seeing their reactions, so he didn't say much. The following regulations had to be determined first, such as renting several stores at the same time and opening them together. Others wanted to learn this business very quickly. At the beginning of the money, as long as he had 2000 taels of silver on hand, plus Jiang Minghao's money, he would go into the leather goods business, and that would be the real money.

From the beginning to the end, Zhang Xiu didn't want to talk to Zhang Qian, he was used to being self-reliant, and he was not sure if Zhang Qian would agree if he asked.

The second generation of officials is convenient, but it will also bring a lot of inconvenience. For example, officials look down on those who are in business. No matter how friendly they are, business is always cheap and is looked down upon by scholars.

He didn't do much this time, but it's still okay for his family to try something new. Changed his clothes at Zhang Quan's place and went to show off excitedly with fresh snacks.

Zhang Qian must be in the Qianya at this time, Zhang Xiu went directly to the Hang family's courtyard, and saw everyone looking dignified as soon as he entered, Zhang Xiu felt a little bit in his heart, and quickly stopped a second-class maid named Qingzhu: "Sister Qingzhu, What's going on here?"

Qing Zhu stopped and hurriedly walked and saluted: "It turned out to be the eldest young master. Madam is ill. I just sent someone to invite the doctor. Madam looks not very well. Eldest young master should go to see the madam and young lady. The young lady has been crying, and the second young master has been crying too, so the eldest young master should go and have a look."
