Your fiancee ran away with someone again
Chapter 56 Hot and Sour Scallion Noodles
When Qi Zhan woke up the next day, he found that the situation was a little different from the previous day after being beaten, his butt hurt.
The buttocks hurt when touched, and it seems a little uncomfortable not to touch them.
He turned his head to look at Mu Ting, a little aggrieved, "Ting Ting, you tried too hard last night."
Mu Ting understood, took the medicine and walked back to the bed, "Take off your pants, I'll give you the medicine."
Qi Zhan took off his trousers slowly, lying down so that Mu Ting could take the medicine, and at the same time reminded him, "Although I am easy to touch, I was beaten yesterday, Ting Ting, you don't take pity on me at all, it hurts so much." ah."
Mu Ting smeared the medicine on him, and asked him blankly, "That's who said last night that you can touch as much as you want, as long as you want, and now you say that I don't feel sorry for you."
Qi Zhan moaned in pain, "I said it," but now that he is in pain, he feels a little wronged.
After applying the medicine, Mu Ting helped him pull up his pants, pulled him up and hugged him into his arms, and coaxed him, "I was wrong, I shouldn't be too attached to the feel of your butt, and I have been reluctant to let go of your hand, I won't do it in the future , I apologize to you."
Qi Zhan is so easy to coax, Mu Ting shook his head immediately when Mu Ting said this, "Ting Ting doesn't need to apologize, I know you are like this because you like me, when I get better, you can do whatever you want, I will be able to do it soon OK."
Mu Ting kissed him, "Well, then you need to get better soon."
Qi Zhan kissed Mu Ting back, nodded heavily, "Yes, I will!"
Because Qi Zhan's butt hurt because of his own hands, Mu Ting decided to make a breakfast to compensate him.
Let Qi Zhan sleep again, and Mu Ting went to the kitchen by himself.
"Third young lady, did you have a new meal this morning?"
As soon as Mu Ting stepped into the kitchen, someone asked.
Before Mu Ting could speak, someone retorted to the person who spoke first, "Go, what did you say, as long as the third young lady came to the kitchen to cook something new, if you want to ask, you should ask what you ate this morning. "
"Third Young Madam, what are you going to have for breakfast today?"
"Spicy and sour noodles with scallion oil," Mu Ting opened his mouth after seeing that there were still unused noodles, and saw Zhao Quan making steamed buns, so he added, "With soup filled steamed buns .”
Zhao Quan is an expert at making steamed stuffed buns. Mu Ting had written to him the recipe of soup-filled steamed buns before, and the steamed stuffed buns made by Zhao Quan were well received by the Qi family.
Zhao Quan heard Mu Ting's words and said with a smile: "Then this morning we had a good time again, and we happened to have porridge. I'm not afraid that these bastards will choke on eating too much."
Mu Ting smiled, thinking that Qi Zhan should also need porridge, after all, he is also in a hurry to eat.
Mu Ting put on his apron, rolled up his sleeves, cleaned his hands and began to knead the dough.
Knead the waken noodles repeatedly until the dough is smooth, then roll it into a thin skin with a rolling pin, fold the dough evenly, and then cut it into noodles with a knife.
Compared with wide noodles, Mu Ting prefers to eat thin noodles. I think it will be more delicious. When the knife falls evenly, the noodles will become thin noodles.
Then start to boil the noodles, and at the same time start another pot of oil to make seasonings, put the sliced shallots into the pot and fry until both sides are browned, then remove the stove first, and when the oil cools down a bit, add minced garlic and dogwood Stir-fry sauce, cooked sesame, etc. with the remaining temperature of oil, and add appropriate amount of soy sauce, vinegar, fine sugar, salt, mix well and pour it on the surface that has been cooked in cold water. This bowl of hot and sour shallot oil mixes The noodles are ready.
The smell of scallion oil is quite strong, and you can smell it clearly when you pick up the noodles with chopsticks.
Mu Ting gave a small portion of noodles to the maid next to Li Shi, who just came to pick up breakfast, and took it back by the way.
On Mu Ting's side, Zhao Quan asked Zhao Quan to bring out a stack of steamed steamed dumplings filled with soup, and a large bowl of porridge, together with Bai Lingqingsong, and the three of them brought their breakfast back.
Qi Zhan had already woken up and washed up. He put a cushion on the stool and sat there, waiting for breakfast obediently.
For this scene, Mu Ting always felt that he was lucky enough to have Qi Zhan last night, at least five, six, seven or eight times before he let Qi Zhan have breakfast and had to sit on cushions.
Not only did he think so, Bai Ling, Zhang Nanny and the others looked at Qi Zhan with strange eyes, and Zhang Nanny also understood, no wonder the third son is always clamoring to get married, what can he do if he doesn't get married.
Nanny Zhang went over to Mu Ting, "Mrs. Third Young Master, this side looks a bit spicy. It may be inconvenient for Third Young Master to eat it. Why don't you just let him eat porridge and steamed stuffed buns."
Mu Ting knew what Nanny Zhang was thinking as soon as he heard it, he suppressed a smile and explained to Qi Zhan, "He was beaten by the elder brother yesterday, it doesn't matter, I specially put less spicy in this noodle, he can eat it. "
Nanny Zhang had an oolong, and she withdrew with a embarrassed expression.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to look at Qi Zhan more, he was quite strange in his heart, the third young master used to be able to jump around the next day after being beaten, and he had never sat on a cushion, could it be that the eldest young master really hit hard this time?
Because she didn't know what kind of fun Qi Zhan and Mu Ting were having, Mammy Zhang had a "beautiful" misunderstanding in her heart.
Qi Zhan was so focused on eating that he didn't understand what Nanny Zhang said. When Mu Ting said he could eat noodles, he first picked up a bowl for himself and quickly put it in his mouth.
A lot of oil is used in the noodles with scallion oil. It looks shiny and shiny, but it tastes a little oily but not greasy. It is delicious with fried fragrant and crispy scallions.The taste is hot, sour, sweet and salty, rich in taste, and the noodles are smooth and firm. This noodle is full of applause.
Qi Zhan nodded while eating, finished a small bowl in a few mouthfuls, drank half a bowl of warm porridge, and put a small steamed bun in his mouth, even though his mouth would be scalded by the soup in the small steamed bun, But this is not a problem, I can only feel a strong sense of happiness and satisfaction rising from my heart.
The noodles are good, the porridge is good, and the steamed buns are good too. They go well together.
"It's so delicious, even a bowl of noodles, Tingting, you can cook better than Yuchu's. Tingting, you are so kind to me."
After Qi Zhan finished his compliment, he started to eat the second bowl of noodles without stopping.
With the speed of eating noodles and the happy and satisfied expression on his face, who can see where he is uncomfortable.
Anyway, after breakfast, Qi Zhan was full of energy again, he jumped up twice, and said to Mu Ting with a look of surprise, "I didn't expect this scallion oil noodles to have the effect of relieving pain, it's amazing .”
"It doesn't hurt anymore?" Mutin asked him.
Qi Zhan shook his head and nodded again, "A little bit, but it didn't hurt when I woke up in the morning."
That should be the effect of the ointment applied, coupled with the amazing resilience of this person, Mu Ting said: "Anyway, you should sit less and walk less today, your friends don't know when they will come, you should lie on your stomach first Go write your storybook, and wait until people come to see if you want to go out with them."
Qi Zhan’s story has made new progress. He started. Although he hasn’t written many words, the beginning of the vernacular is quite attractive. When the overall story is written, Mu Ting thinks it should be liked by many people. of.
After all, the vernacular is straightforward and easy to understand, and the audience is much larger than those literary books.
As for whether they will be dismissed and complained that it is unsightly, they don't care. It is intended to be used for entertainment and entertainment, and it is not a literary masterpiece.
Qi Zhan walked around the courtyard twice to digest food, and then went into the house and lay down on the soft bed, with the quilt on his head and feet up, and continued to write his masterpiece.
Mu Ting was called by Qi's mother to look at some things that will be used when getting married. Because Li Shi is currently in poor health and needs to rest, let alone be tired, so she took over the task that Qi's mother originally arranged for Li Shi.
The specific day of marriage is the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, and there are only ten days left. There are still a lot of things to prepare, and Qi's mother is also very busy recently.
As soon as Mu Ting appeared, Qi's mother waved to him enthusiastically, "Come and see, this is a wedding crown. We don't like to wear women's clothes when you two men get married. I made the same wedding crown for you. Do you like it?"
The Xiguan is made of pure gold, with a hollow pattern. There is a ruby in front of it. At first glance, it seems nothing special, but when you look closely, you can find that the entire Xiguan pattern is carved in the shape of a bird.
Qi's mother explained, "This is a mandarin duck," and the two bridal crowns were placed side by side, and the two mandarin ducks were facing each other, staring at each other.
There is also a red headband to match the Xiguan. The tail of the hairband is embroidered with two big-headed villains, which are the big-headed villains that Qi Zhan usually draws. One is him and the other is Qi Zhan. Wearing the pair of happy crowns.
Surprise flashed in Mu Ting's eyes, "Mother," he called Qi's mother, but he didn't know what to say.
Mother Qi is too caring.
Qi's mother reached out and led him to the next room. When the door opened, Mu Ting found many boxes, large and small, inside. Qi's mother said: "I sent someone to go to Li's house to come back. Zhan'er married You, you are the one who is going to marry now, we have nothing to do with the Li family, so naturally we can't let people take advantage of it for nothing."
"His two elder brothers have given dowry gifts for their wives. If he wants to marry someone, he has to give him a dowry. When the time comes, carry these things to your yard, and give them to Zhan'er in the future."
Looking at the boxes in this room, Mu Ting felt strangely complicated. He said to his mother, "Qi Zhan probably would never have imagined that the dowry he was supposed to use to marry his wife ended up being his own dowry."
Qi's mother was also happy, "Who would have thought that if I knew that he would marry you in the end, I wouldn't have to go around to show him, and I would directly pick you up from Duke Mu's mansion to marry him. It will save me a lot of trouble.”
Mu Ting said: "If it wasn't for that accident, I would never have met him, let alone have such a good family like your mother."
"This is fate." After seeing the dowry, Qi's mother led Mu Ting back to the main room. Otherwise, how could we keep you and marry our sons to you."
Qi's mother asked someone to take a small wooden box, she opened it for Mu Ting to see, and inside was a pair of white jade, "When I gave birth to Zhan'er, his grandmother sent someone to send it, and said that he would give Zhan'er and his wife after Zhan'er got married. Son. At first I also intended to see your nature, to see if you are sincere to Zhan'er. If you are really kind, I will give you the jade pendant. As a result, the jade pendant has not been given to you. Turned into a boy."
"But it's good now, it's you who gave it to you, instead of letting you accept this jade pendant with Li Yaoyao's name on it."
Qi's mother handed the small wooden box to Mu Ting, "Put it on on the wedding day, and listen to your grandmother's instructions. It will be a good marriage for a hundred years."
Mu Ting did not refuse, and thanked Qi's mother after receiving it, "Thank you mother, when there is a chance, Qi Zhan and I will thank grandma face to face."
"Good boy," Mother Qi nodded, very happy, "I wrote them a letter, and they should be able to come by then."
Before Qi Zhan got married, a cousin of Qi Zhan was about to give birth, and his grandmother was not feeling well, so there was no one from the Zhou family.
This time there is nothing to delay, and the grandson is going to marry a man, so the Zhou family wants to come and see him.
"Then when grandma comes, I'll cook something delicious for her."
Qi's mother smiled, "Don't worry, your grandmother is the most reasonable, and your grandfather is also wide-sighted. Otherwise, why would you marry me to your father, a poor boy, and work hard for him to study? They are the most kind people." .”
Mother Qi's eyes suddenly turned red as she spoke. It's okay not to mention this, but she also misses her family when she mentions it.
Mu Ting saw it, and he followed Qi's mother's words, "It's naturally the best for them to raise a kind-hearted and courageous daughter like their mother."
Mother Qi wiped her eyes, "My mouth is sweet."
Mu Ting just laughed, laughing so that Qi's mother calmed down, and he said: "Mother, I don't have any money right now, so I can't prepare a betrothal gift for Qi Zhan for the time being. When the restaurant opens, I will buy it for him after earning money. All the silver is also given to him for safekeeping."
"I don't care about this matter. You can discuss it among yourself. Anyway, he will accept the dowry."
Compared with buying things, Qi Zhan probably prefers silver.
Mu Ting responded meekly.
Qi's mother told him to try the wedding clothes in two days, and then sent Mu Ting back.
Mu Ting went back and showed the jade pendant to Qi Zhan, and told him about his dowry.
Qi Zhan's face was full of smiles and he said hypocritically, "Hey, what are you doing so politely, I told my mother that I don't want the dowry, it's troublesome to carry it around, but since my mother gave it, it's her wish, I don't want it , I can only reluctantly accept it.”
Mu Ting glanced at him, "You are not afraid that mother will not give it to you after hearing it."
Qi Zhan grinned, "I'll just tell you, Ting Ting, mother won't know."
"By the way, is there a lot of dowry? Can we put it down in the courtyard? Why don't we go outside and buy a house for the dowry."
Mu Ting poked his face with his hand, "It's a good idea to sell all your dowry, maybe it's just enough to buy a house."
"That's fine too, if you hide me in, it's called Jinwu Zangjiao," Qi Zhan smiled brighter, feeling that he was very suitable to be the hidden Jiaojiao.
"Okay," Mu Ting cooperated with him, "When I earn money, I will buy a house and put you in it, and then I will go out quietly over the wall every night to find you, and meet with you, this delicate girl."
The two were chatting nonsense, Qi Zhan swayed his feet, and wrote a sentence on the paper from time to time, Mu Ting sat opposite him, with a book of vixen placed in front of him, and the whole morning passed leisurely like this.
After lunch, Yu Xuyao and his group came to ask them to go out to see the restaurant. Qi Zhan's butt pain was no longer there when he went out, and he was full of energy. He was showing off to his friends that Mu Ting made him this morning. breakfast.
The location of the restaurant I was looking at was a little off, and it was precisely because of the location that the business of the restaurant was not good, and the boss couldn't continue, so I thought about transferring it.
It is a two-story building. The lobby on the first floor is wide enough to accommodate twenty tables without crowding. There are also a dozen or so private rooms on the upper floor, ranging from large to small.There is also a large yard at the back, and the family does not feel crowded in it.
Yu Xuyao asked someone to inquire in advance, "The boss said that the 8000 taels of silver will be transferred together, and the tables, chairs, benches and kitchen items will be kept."
It doesn't matter whether these things are available or not, Mu Ting will have to find someone to order again, and the place is not afraid. The fragrance will attract customers, and Qi Zhan and the others can help promote it. As long as someone comes, he will eat a meal. Don't worry about not having repeat customers.
What Mu Ting values most is that the restaurant has a wide space, there are many people and there is a place to sit, and there will be some self-service special items in the small courtyard at the back, all of which are profitable.
The one who guided them was the owner of the restaurant, surnamed Cao, and Mu Ting asked him directly, "Boss Cao, do you plan to make a living elsewhere after selling the restaurant?"
Boss Cao knew that the identities of the group of sons and brothers in front of him were not simple, so he didn't dare to be sloppy, so he replied honestly, "I plan to go to a small restaurant in a better location, so that the family can have something to eat."
"Then what about the waiter in the restaurant?"
Boss Cao replied: "A few of them have gone to another house, and there are two left. I originally planned to take someone with me. My son asked this?"
Mu Ting didn't answer, but continued to ask, "Boss Cao should be very reluctant to sell this restaurant, right?"
Boss Cao showed a heartbroken expression, "Oh, after all, it was passed down from our ancestors. Our ancestors have good cooking skills, and there are diners coming here in this alley. In my generation, they are not good at cooking, and they are not good at management. , how can I sell this ancestral restaurant."
"Then what is Boss Cao good at?"
Boss Cao seemed to have figured out something, his eyes lit up, and he immediately talked about what he was good at, "Because my ancestors were cooks who ran this restaurant, I have dealt with vendors since I was a child, and learned how to pick vegetables and meat. "
"My lord, the villain knows that he has such a little ability, so he dared to seek a position as the manager of the back kitchen. The lord, the villain also has some reputation in the surrounding area. You can send someone to ask the neighbors, but the villain will never do it." You are greedy for cheap and enriching your own pockets, please give the villain a chance."
Boss Cao is also a smart person. After talking about his strengths, he started to find a position for himself.
Qi Zhan stared at the boss for a few moments, and asked curiously, "Don't you want to open a restaurant by yourself? Isn't it better to be the boss than to be the back kitchen? No matter how you open a restaurant, you can earn more money."
Boss Cao explained with an apologetic smile, "As I said before, the villain is not good at management, and he only opens restaurants to make a living, so that the whole family will not go hungry. As for how much they can earn, whether they are worth it or not is another matter. The back kitchen buys and buys a fixed monthly silver, and the young masters are extraordinary when they see their backgrounds. In the future, the business of this restaurant will be booming. "
With the money for the moon and the money for selling restaurants, their family bought another property, so they would not have to worry about food and clothing, and he did his best to complete the purchase, and he might be able to win the eyes of a few young masters. Future generations seek a way out.
"He has a flexible mind," Yu Xuyao and others commented.
However, Mu Ting did not immediately agree to Boss Cao's purchase as the back kitchen, but said: "We want this restaurant, and the purchase will be decided after the restaurant is reinstalled. At that time, we will see if Boss Cao is destined."
Boss Cao knows that there must be three picks and four picks for the households of big families, and he is not afraid of waiting. Anyway, it will take time to re-purchase the residence. He usually comes here to guard when he has nothing to do, and he can always find opportunities.
After handing over the bank note and transferring the ownership at the yamen, the restaurant will be under Mu Ting's name.
Mu Ting and the others went in and walked around again. He asked Qi Zhan to carefully note down the layout of the restaurant and draw it when he went back. He will arrange the decoration.
Qi Zhan obediently complied, and assured Mu Ting that he would write down everything well, and Yu Xuyao and the others laughed at him, as obedient as a cat.
Of course, they admired Mu Ting even more, and he trained Qi Zhan to be submissive. How could they have seen Qi San like this before.
But thinking about it again, if they have such a good-looking daughter-in-law like Mu Ting who can cook, it is not impossible for them to be more docile than Qi San. It is so hard to find a wife who is good at cooking.
Qi Zhan didn't know what these people were thinking, if he knew, it would be a show of his fist, Ting Ting is his wife, no one is allowed to think about it!
After finishing the restaurant, the group headed back home.
Yu Xuyao leaned over to Mu Ting, and without saying a word, he took out a stack of banknotes and handed it to him, "Then what, Mrs. Qi San, can I ask you to buy a dish, just the chicken feet stew that I ate yesterday?" .”
Before Mu Ting could speak, Qi Zhan glared at him, "Haven't you eaten enough yesterday?"
Yu Xuyao retorted Qi Zhan, "You didn't eat less than me yesterday, do you dare to say that you have eaten enough?"
Then... Obviously not, he will definitely be able to finish another pot today.
Yu Xuyao pushed Qi Zhan away in disgust, "Don't interrupt, wait until I finish."
Yu Xuyao had no choice but to confess that he was almost reprimanded when he went back to greedy his parents yesterday, "My parents said, if they don't eat chicken feet pot today, my ass will explode."
Yu Xuyao tried his best to make his expression look pitiful. Although he knew that Mu Ting would not be distressed, he begged him to save face and let him avoid this mixed doubles due to his good relationship with Qi San. It really hurts when my mother hits someone.
There are a lot of bank notes, and Yu Xuyao was thinking that he would go back to get them if he didn't have enough money. Anyway, his mother said that he would not treat him badly, and he would just ask his mother to make up for it.
But before the words came out, there were a few more stacks of bank notes in front of Mu Ting, toasts and others from other colleagues.
Yu Xuyao waved his hands away very dissatisfied, "Go, go, what are you doing?"
He made a toast and said, "If your parents eat the chicken feet stew and our parents don't, they know it's because us sons don't speak up, can you imagine what will happen to us?"
Then maybe it's not as simple as mixed doubles. They also have brothers and sisters-in-law. I don't know if there is a dude in the family. Everyone is good at fighting.
Yu Xuyao couldn't refute this, as long as he brought it into his own mind, he would know.
Probably a murder caused by a dish, right?
Qi Zhan came over to rescue Mu Ting, "There are so many of you, Ting Ting is alone, can you do it?"
"Then what should I do?" Everyone humbly asked for advice, in order not to be beaten, they tried their best to ask for food.
Qi Zhan didn't know either, so he asked Mu Ting, "Ting Ting, what do you think?"
Mu Ting obviously didn't expect such a follow-up. He thought for a while and asked Qi Zhan, "Your family has a good relationship. Will you pay New Year's greetings to each other's home for dinner during the New Year?"
The big families in the capital don’t have this rule. If they have a good relationship, they will give New Year’s gifts. For things like eating, married daughters will go back with their husbands and children. The elders will not touch.
Qi Zhan was about to shake his head, but Yu Xuyao and the others looked at each other, and then said in unison: "We think we can!"
The buttocks hurt when touched, and it seems a little uncomfortable not to touch them.
He turned his head to look at Mu Ting, a little aggrieved, "Ting Ting, you tried too hard last night."
Mu Ting understood, took the medicine and walked back to the bed, "Take off your pants, I'll give you the medicine."
Qi Zhan took off his trousers slowly, lying down so that Mu Ting could take the medicine, and at the same time reminded him, "Although I am easy to touch, I was beaten yesterday, Ting Ting, you don't take pity on me at all, it hurts so much." ah."
Mu Ting smeared the medicine on him, and asked him blankly, "That's who said last night that you can touch as much as you want, as long as you want, and now you say that I don't feel sorry for you."
Qi Zhan moaned in pain, "I said it," but now that he is in pain, he feels a little wronged.
After applying the medicine, Mu Ting helped him pull up his pants, pulled him up and hugged him into his arms, and coaxed him, "I was wrong, I shouldn't be too attached to the feel of your butt, and I have been reluctant to let go of your hand, I won't do it in the future , I apologize to you."
Qi Zhan is so easy to coax, Mu Ting shook his head immediately when Mu Ting said this, "Ting Ting doesn't need to apologize, I know you are like this because you like me, when I get better, you can do whatever you want, I will be able to do it soon OK."
Mu Ting kissed him, "Well, then you need to get better soon."
Qi Zhan kissed Mu Ting back, nodded heavily, "Yes, I will!"
Because Qi Zhan's butt hurt because of his own hands, Mu Ting decided to make a breakfast to compensate him.
Let Qi Zhan sleep again, and Mu Ting went to the kitchen by himself.
"Third young lady, did you have a new meal this morning?"
As soon as Mu Ting stepped into the kitchen, someone asked.
Before Mu Ting could speak, someone retorted to the person who spoke first, "Go, what did you say, as long as the third young lady came to the kitchen to cook something new, if you want to ask, you should ask what you ate this morning. "
"Third Young Madam, what are you going to have for breakfast today?"
"Spicy and sour noodles with scallion oil," Mu Ting opened his mouth after seeing that there were still unused noodles, and saw Zhao Quan making steamed buns, so he added, "With soup filled steamed buns .”
Zhao Quan is an expert at making steamed stuffed buns. Mu Ting had written to him the recipe of soup-filled steamed buns before, and the steamed stuffed buns made by Zhao Quan were well received by the Qi family.
Zhao Quan heard Mu Ting's words and said with a smile: "Then this morning we had a good time again, and we happened to have porridge. I'm not afraid that these bastards will choke on eating too much."
Mu Ting smiled, thinking that Qi Zhan should also need porridge, after all, he is also in a hurry to eat.
Mu Ting put on his apron, rolled up his sleeves, cleaned his hands and began to knead the dough.
Knead the waken noodles repeatedly until the dough is smooth, then roll it into a thin skin with a rolling pin, fold the dough evenly, and then cut it into noodles with a knife.

On Mu Ting's side, Zhao Quan asked Zhao Quan to bring out a stack of steamed steamed dumplings filled with soup, and a large bowl of porridge, together with Bai Lingqingsong, and the three of them brought their breakfast back.
Qi Zhan had already woken up and washed up. He put a cushion on the stool and sat there, waiting for breakfast obediently.
For this scene, Mu Ting always felt that he was lucky enough to have Qi Zhan last night, at least five, six, seven or eight times before he let Qi Zhan have breakfast and had to sit on cushions.
Not only did he think so, Bai Ling, Zhang Nanny and the others looked at Qi Zhan with strange eyes, and Zhang Nanny also understood, no wonder the third son is always clamoring to get married, what can he do if he doesn't get married.

As soon as Mu Ting appeared, Qi's mother waved to him enthusiastically, "Come and see, this is a wedding crown. We don't like to wear women's clothes when you two men get married. I made the same wedding crown for you. Do you like it?"
The Xiguan is made of pure gold, with a hollow pattern. There is a ruby in front of it. At first glance, it seems nothing special, but when you look closely, you can find that the entire Xiguan pattern is carved in the shape of a bird.
Qi's mother explained, "This is a mandarin duck," and the two bridal crowns were placed side by side, and the two mandarin ducks were facing each other, staring at each other.
There is also a red headband to match the Xiguan. The tail of the hairband is embroidered with two big-headed villains, which are the big-headed villains that Qi Zhan usually draws. One is him and the other is Qi Zhan. Wearing the pair of happy crowns.
Surprise flashed in Mu Ting's eyes, "Mother," he called Qi's mother, but he didn't know what to say.
Mother Qi is too caring.
Qi's mother reached out and led him to the next room. When the door opened, Mu Ting found many boxes, large and small, inside. Qi's mother said: "I sent someone to go to Li's house to come back. Zhan'er married You, you are the one who is going to marry now, we have nothing to do with the Li family, so naturally we can't let people take advantage of it for nothing."
"His two elder brothers have given dowry gifts for their wives. If he wants to marry someone, he has to give him a dowry. When the time comes, carry these things to your yard, and give them to Zhan'er in the future."
Looking at the boxes in this room, Mu Ting felt strangely complicated. He said to his mother, "Qi Zhan probably would never have imagined that the dowry he was supposed to use to marry his wife ended up being his own dowry."
Qi's mother was also happy, "Who would have thought that if I knew that he would marry you in the end, I wouldn't have to go around to show him, and I would directly pick you up from Duke Mu's mansion to marry him. It will save me a lot of trouble.”
Mu Ting said: "If it wasn't for that accident, I would never have met him, let alone have such a good family like your mother."
"This is fate." After seeing the dowry, Qi's mother led Mu Ting back to the main room. Otherwise, how could we keep you and marry our sons to you."
Qi's mother asked someone to take a small wooden box, she opened it for Mu Ting to see, and inside was a pair of white jade, "When I gave birth to Zhan'er, his grandmother sent someone to send it, and said that he would give Zhan'er and his wife after Zhan'er got married. Son. At first I also intended to see your nature, to see if you are sincere to Zhan'er. If you are really kind, I will give you the jade pendant. As a result, the jade pendant has not been given to you. Turned into a boy."
"But it's good now, it's you who gave it to you, instead of letting you accept this jade pendant with Li Yaoyao's name on it."
Qi's mother handed the small wooden box to Mu Ting, "Put it on on the wedding day, and listen to your grandmother's instructions. It will be a good marriage for a hundred years."
Mu Ting did not refuse, and thanked Qi's mother after receiving it, "Thank you mother, when there is a chance, Qi Zhan and I will thank grandma face to face."
"Good boy," Mother Qi nodded, very happy, "I wrote them a letter, and they should be able to come by then."
Before Qi Zhan got married, a cousin of Qi Zhan was about to give birth, and his grandmother was not feeling well, so there was no one from the Zhou family.
This time there is nothing to delay, and the grandson is going to marry a man, so the Zhou family wants to come and see him.
"Then when grandma comes, I'll cook something delicious for her."
Qi's mother smiled, "Don't worry, your grandmother is the most reasonable, and your grandfather is also wide-sighted. Otherwise, why would you marry me to your father, a poor boy, and work hard for him to study? They are the most kind people." .”
Mother Qi's eyes suddenly turned red as she spoke. It's okay not to mention this, but she also misses her family when she mentions it.
Mu Ting saw it, and he followed Qi's mother's words, "It's naturally the best for them to raise a kind-hearted and courageous daughter like their mother."
Mother Qi wiped her eyes, "My mouth is sweet."
Mu Ting just laughed, laughing so that Qi's mother calmed down, and he said: "Mother, I don't have any money right now, so I can't prepare a betrothal gift for Qi Zhan for the time being. When the restaurant opens, I will buy it for him after earning money. All the silver is also given to him for safekeeping."
"I don't care about this matter. You can discuss it among yourself. Anyway, he will accept the dowry."
Compared with buying things, Qi Zhan probably prefers silver.
Mu Ting responded meekly.
Qi's mother told him to try the wedding clothes in two days, and then sent Mu Ting back.
Mu Ting went back and showed the jade pendant to Qi Zhan, and told him about his dowry.
Qi Zhan's face was full of smiles and he said hypocritically, "Hey, what are you doing so politely, I told my mother that I don't want the dowry, it's troublesome to carry it around, but since my mother gave it, it's her wish, I don't want it , I can only reluctantly accept it.”
Mu Ting glanced at him, "You are not afraid that mother will not give it to you after hearing it."
Qi Zhan grinned, "I'll just tell you, Ting Ting, mother won't know."
"By the way, is there a lot of dowry? Can we put it down in the courtyard? Why don't we go outside and buy a house for the dowry."
Mu Ting poked his face with his hand, "It's a good idea to sell all your dowry, maybe it's just enough to buy a house."
"That's fine too, if you hide me in, it's called Jinwu Zangjiao," Qi Zhan smiled brighter, feeling that he was very suitable to be the hidden Jiaojiao.
"Okay," Mu Ting cooperated with him, "When I earn money, I will buy a house and put you in it, and then I will go out quietly over the wall every night to find you, and meet with you, this delicate girl."
The two were chatting nonsense, Qi Zhan swayed his feet, and wrote a sentence on the paper from time to time, Mu Ting sat opposite him, with a book of vixen placed in front of him, and the whole morning passed leisurely like this.
After lunch, Yu Xuyao and his group came to ask them to go out to see the restaurant. Qi Zhan's butt pain was no longer there when he went out, and he was full of energy. He was showing off to his friends that Mu Ting made him this morning. breakfast.
The location of the restaurant I was looking at was a little off, and it was precisely because of the location that the business of the restaurant was not good, and the boss couldn't continue, so I thought about transferring it.
It is a two-story building. The lobby on the first floor is wide enough to accommodate twenty tables without crowding. There are also a dozen or so private rooms on the upper floor, ranging from large to small.There is also a large yard at the back, and the family does not feel crowded in it.
Yu Xuyao asked someone to inquire in advance, "The boss said that the 8000 taels of silver will be transferred together, and the tables, chairs, benches and kitchen items will be kept."
It doesn't matter whether these things are available or not, Mu Ting will have to find someone to order again, and the place is not afraid. The fragrance will attract customers, and Qi Zhan and the others can help promote it. As long as someone comes, he will eat a meal. Don't worry about not having repeat customers.
What Mu Ting values most is that the restaurant has a wide space, there are many people and there is a place to sit, and there will be some self-service special items in the small courtyard at the back, all of which are profitable.
The one who guided them was the owner of the restaurant, surnamed Cao, and Mu Ting asked him directly, "Boss Cao, do you plan to make a living elsewhere after selling the restaurant?"
Boss Cao knew that the identities of the group of sons and brothers in front of him were not simple, so he didn't dare to be sloppy, so he replied honestly, "I plan to go to a small restaurant in a better location, so that the family can have something to eat."
"Then what about the waiter in the restaurant?"
Boss Cao replied: "A few of them have gone to another house, and there are two left. I originally planned to take someone with me. My son asked this?"
Mu Ting didn't answer, but continued to ask, "Boss Cao should be very reluctant to sell this restaurant, right?"
Boss Cao showed a heartbroken expression, "Oh, after all, it was passed down from our ancestors. Our ancestors have good cooking skills, and there are diners coming here in this alley. In my generation, they are not good at cooking, and they are not good at management. , how can I sell this ancestral restaurant."
"Then what is Boss Cao good at?"
Boss Cao seemed to have figured out something, his eyes lit up, and he immediately talked about what he was good at, "Because my ancestors were cooks who ran this restaurant, I have dealt with vendors since I was a child, and learned how to pick vegetables and meat. "
"My lord, the villain knows that he has such a little ability, so he dared to seek a position as the manager of the back kitchen. The lord, the villain also has some reputation in the surrounding area. You can send someone to ask the neighbors, but the villain will never do it." You are greedy for cheap and enriching your own pockets, please give the villain a chance."
Boss Cao is also a smart person. After talking about his strengths, he started to find a position for himself.
Qi Zhan stared at the boss for a few moments, and asked curiously, "Don't you want to open a restaurant by yourself? Isn't it better to be the boss than to be the back kitchen? No matter how you open a restaurant, you can earn more money."
Boss Cao explained with an apologetic smile, "As I said before, the villain is not good at management, and he only opens restaurants to make a living, so that the whole family will not go hungry. As for how much they can earn, whether they are worth it or not is another matter. The back kitchen buys and buys a fixed monthly silver, and the young masters are extraordinary when they see their backgrounds. In the future, the business of this restaurant will be booming. "
With the money for the moon and the money for selling restaurants, their family bought another property, so they would not have to worry about food and clothing, and he did his best to complete the purchase, and he might be able to win the eyes of a few young masters. Future generations seek a way out.
"He has a flexible mind," Yu Xuyao and others commented.
However, Mu Ting did not immediately agree to Boss Cao's purchase as the back kitchen, but said: "We want this restaurant, and the purchase will be decided after the restaurant is reinstalled. At that time, we will see if Boss Cao is destined."
Boss Cao knows that there must be three picks and four picks for the households of big families, and he is not afraid of waiting. Anyway, it will take time to re-purchase the residence. He usually comes here to guard when he has nothing to do, and he can always find opportunities.
After handing over the bank note and transferring the ownership at the yamen, the restaurant will be under Mu Ting's name.
Mu Ting and the others went in and walked around again. He asked Qi Zhan to carefully note down the layout of the restaurant and draw it when he went back. He will arrange the decoration.
Qi Zhan obediently complied, and assured Mu Ting that he would write down everything well, and Yu Xuyao and the others laughed at him, as obedient as a cat.
Of course, they admired Mu Ting even more, and he trained Qi Zhan to be submissive. How could they have seen Qi San like this before.
But thinking about it again, if they have such a good-looking daughter-in-law like Mu Ting who can cook, it is not impossible for them to be more docile than Qi San. It is so hard to find a wife who is good at cooking.
Qi Zhan didn't know what these people were thinking, if he knew, it would be a show of his fist, Ting Ting is his wife, no one is allowed to think about it!
After finishing the restaurant, the group headed back home.
Yu Xuyao leaned over to Mu Ting, and without saying a word, he took out a stack of banknotes and handed it to him, "Then what, Mrs. Qi San, can I ask you to buy a dish, just the chicken feet stew that I ate yesterday?" .”
Before Mu Ting could speak, Qi Zhan glared at him, "Haven't you eaten enough yesterday?"
Yu Xuyao retorted Qi Zhan, "You didn't eat less than me yesterday, do you dare to say that you have eaten enough?"
Then... Obviously not, he will definitely be able to finish another pot today.
Yu Xuyao pushed Qi Zhan away in disgust, "Don't interrupt, wait until I finish."
Yu Xuyao had no choice but to confess that he was almost reprimanded when he went back to greedy his parents yesterday, "My parents said, if they don't eat chicken feet pot today, my ass will explode."
Yu Xuyao tried his best to make his expression look pitiful. Although he knew that Mu Ting would not be distressed, he begged him to save face and let him avoid this mixed doubles due to his good relationship with Qi San. It really hurts when my mother hits someone.
There are a lot of bank notes, and Yu Xuyao was thinking that he would go back to get them if he didn't have enough money. Anyway, his mother said that he would not treat him badly, and he would just ask his mother to make up for it.
But before the words came out, there were a few more stacks of bank notes in front of Mu Ting, toasts and others from other colleagues.
Yu Xuyao waved his hands away very dissatisfied, "Go, go, what are you doing?"
He made a toast and said, "If your parents eat the chicken feet stew and our parents don't, they know it's because us sons don't speak up, can you imagine what will happen to us?"
Then maybe it's not as simple as mixed doubles. They also have brothers and sisters-in-law. I don't know if there is a dude in the family. Everyone is good at fighting.
Yu Xuyao couldn't refute this, as long as he brought it into his own mind, he would know.
Probably a murder caused by a dish, right?
Qi Zhan came over to rescue Mu Ting, "There are so many of you, Ting Ting is alone, can you do it?"
"Then what should I do?" Everyone humbly asked for advice, in order not to be beaten, they tried their best to ask for food.
Qi Zhan didn't know either, so he asked Mu Ting, "Ting Ting, what do you think?"
Mu Ting obviously didn't expect such a follow-up. He thought for a while and asked Qi Zhan, "Your family has a good relationship. Will you pay New Year's greetings to each other's home for dinner during the New Year?"
The big families in the capital don’t have this rule. If they have a good relationship, they will give New Year’s gifts. For things like eating, married daughters will go back with their husbands and children. The elders will not touch.
Qi Zhan was about to shake his head, but Yu Xuyao and the others looked at each other, and then said in unison: "We think we can!"
