[Qing] Fourth Master, learn about health preservation

The tongues of imperial physicians are very sharp. After all, it is not enough to just see and smell many medicinal materials, and they need to be tasted with their tongues.

Sometimes when some medicinal dregs need to be inspected, they are almost invisible to the naked eye after being crushed and boiled, and they need to be tasted to tell what they are.

So they could hardly taste the medicinal materials, let alone Da Fujin.

The head of the hospital and Imperial Physician Yu saw that Da Fujin felt much better after eating the lotus cake for a few days, and had the strength to sit up, so they began to drink stalked rice porridge, then red dates and longan porridge, and then old hen soup.

After half a month, Da Fujin was able to support Nanny Di to stay on the bed and walk two steps.

The two imperial doctors couldn't figure it out, so they asked the fourth elder brother to go back and ask Geng Yi.

The fourth elder brother is also very curious; "This lotus cake is so miraculous, does it have the effect of bringing the dead back to life?"

Geng Yi was also stunned when he heard it, and shook his head with a smile, "Master, I heard people say what they say, lotus cake is just for eating, it's not a elixir, how can it be so powerful?"

It's not easy to say why it doesn't smell like medicine, because it contains a lethal amount of sugar.

How can medicinal materials that are less than one-tenth of sugar can't cover the taste?

Even the imperial physicians with sharp tongues are overwhelmed by the sweetness of so many sugars, it is impossible for their tongues to taste any medicine.

What's more, after Da Fujin became weak, his tongue was not as sharp as before.

As long as the nose does not smell, the tongue will not react.

As long as Nanny Di and the kitchen didn't tell, Da Fujin would never know that the lotus cake he ate contained medicinal herbs.

In fact, the herbal diet made by Yuanshou before has very little medicinal taste, only a little bit, and Da Fujin may not be able to taste it.

But from the beginning, she told Da Fujin that it was a medicinal diet, and there must be medicinal materials in it. She knew in her heart that it was medicine, and of course her body reacted accordingly.

After Geng Yi explained in detail, the fourth elder brother understood, smiled and shook his head and said: "So that's the case, no wonder you have been keeping people from telling Da Fujin what the recipe for lotus cake is. But it is rumored that Da Fujin ate fairy cake The cake is getting better, and I am looking for a recipe everywhere."

The people on Geng Yi's side couldn't be easily harassed, so they went to find Geng Jin frequently.

After all, I heard that Geng Yi's recipes were found in Geng's library, so many people came to visit, and those who paid a lot of money wanted to go in and have a look, or ask for this recipe directly.

Geng Jin had never heard of such a thing, he had never been in the Library Pavilion, so Geng Yi liked to go in.

He couldn't bear the disturbance, so he closed the door to see no visitors, and hid by Geng Yin's side.

However, the news that Geng Yin was Geng Jin's brother was also spread, and the two brothers were so frightened that they shut up in the small courtyard, and the shop of Yurongjiao couldn't be opened for a long time.

Geng Yi smiled wryly and said: "This pastry is suitable for Da Fujin, not necessarily for other people, especially the older ones, so don't eat it indiscriminately."

Da Fujin hadn't eaten for several days, her body was weak, and she was not very old. She ate a lot of sugar in a short period of time and turned it into energy, so she had the strength to recover slowly.

But other people are different, especially those who already have diabetes, or those who are too old to convert sugar, what should they do if they eat it and get sick?

In order to explain more clearly, Geng Yi said: "For example, if there is a big bowl here, more water can be poured in. The bowl is originally small, and the same water will overflow when it goes in."

The fourth elder brother nodded, expressing his understanding: "I have already sent someone to talk to the outside world to suppress the news."

It's just that the news somehow spread to the palace, and the emperor called the fourth elder brother over and asked about the lotus cake.

The fourth elder brother repeated Geng Yi's words, and said again: "It's just an emergency recipe, and it may not be suitable for everyone."

When the emperor heard that the older ones couldn't be used and could only be used for emergencies, he rested his mind, turned his head and said again: "This Geng Gege is really powerful, it's because Da Fujin got better, I heard that he can stay here for two days Two steps, let Concubine Hui breathe a sigh of relief."

Concubine Hui originally heard that the head of the hospital was helpless in the past, and that Da Fujin might not be able to hold on as she became weaker, and she almost fainted in the dark before her eyes. Fortunately, the situation turned around, and Geng Yi gave her a pastry recipe, which forced Da Fujin to come back from the gate of hell , really powerful.

She also didn't want to call Geng Yi into the palace with great fanfare, and went there when Sifu Jin entered the palace to pay her respects to Concubine De, and praised Concubine De: "It's also you who taught well, and the four princes in the backyard are smarter than each other. sensible."

Concubine Hui shared her good words for free, and after she finished her compliments, she stuffed two boxes of gems into Si Fujin's hands for her to play with, and then left with a smile.

Si Fujin was a little stunned holding the brocade box, De Fei said: "Keep it away, it's also Hui Fei's kindness."

She thought Concubine De would be upset when Geng Yi became famous outside again, but Concubine De had a very calm expression on her face and said, "You and Geng Gege prepared something for Fourteen, and you didn't say anything about eating it, you also specially made one." Fourteen for the jacket."

Fourteen of course can't dress too well in Xidaying, lest people reveal his identity. This jacket looks like ordinary material on the outside, but it's also on the inside, but it's comfortable and warm to wear. It must be the material that Si Fujin carefully selected. It was really painstaking to do it by hand.

Si Fujin and Geng Yi were so attentive, of course it was because of Si elder brother's orders.

Concubine De has always had very complicated feelings about this eldest son. It's not that she doesn't want to be close, but when she sees the fourth elder brother, she can't help but think of the mother of the Tong family, and recalls that she was so weak that she couldn't even keep her child and had to give it to others. past.

Sifujin smiled and said: "It's what it should be. I'm also worried about my fourteenth brother, so I went to see it myself."

Concubine De nodded, and said: "If Little Fourteen is half as stable as Fourth Elder Brother, that would be fine."

Si Fujin only smiled but didn't say anything. If she said yes, did Concubine De really feel that way?

If she said it was impossible, the fourth elder brother was the fourth elder brother, and the fourteenth elder brother was the fourteenth elder brother. The two were in completely different circumstances since they were young. How could it be possible to develop the same temperament? How about the fourth elder brother?

Fortunately, Concubine De didn't want Si Fujin to insist on answering, showing a little tired face, Si Fujin tactfully left.

It's just that she had just left the palace and returned to Baylor's Mansion, and there was a carriage parked at the door.

Nanny Liao went down to ask, and answered the report: "Master, it's Sanfujin who came."

Sifujin was taken aback, and quickly motioned for the carriage to enter the mansion together. She got out of the carriage, and Sanfujin had already come over and said with a helpless smile: "I'm bothering the fourth sibling. I came here on a temporary basis. I didn't realize you were entering the palace until I got to the door." It's rather abrupt to say hello to Empress Concubine De."

Seeing Sanfujin's sad face, Sifujin shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law San, let's go in and talk."

Si Fujin signaled to Linglong to bring refreshments, and sent the maid out, leaving Nanny Liao to watch at the door, obviously knowing that San Fujin's words might not be heard by others.

What Sanfujin likes the most is Sifujin's appearance, she is reliable and considerate, no matter what she says, she will never leak it out at will, because of this, she couldn't hold back so she came to talk to Sifujin for a few words of her own : "The fourth younger brother and sister know that Wang gave birth to a little elder brother at the beginning of last year, and he died within a month. The third elder brother suspected that it was me who did it, but let it go because there was no evidence. Obviously he died of illness , but this hat was inexplicably put on my head.”

She showed a mocking smile, and said: "Later, Mrs. Wang didn't conceive for a long time. After all, the third elder brother has worked hard for more than a year, but she has not seen any reaction in her stomach. Recently, I heard about Da Fujin. Don't let me Come to the door and ask that Geng Gege if there is any prescription for people to conceive as soon as possible."

Si Fujin frowned and said: "Sister-in-law San, where is there such a prescription in this world?"

Sanfujin was dubious at first, but he was relieved to see her solemn expression, and said with a smile: "That's right, if there really was one, the princess would have already..."

"Sister-in-law San, be careful!" Sifujin interrupted her and shook his head at Sanfujin.

Sanfujin knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and it was Sifujin who interrupted him more, otherwise the wall has ears, who knows if it will reach the prince's ears, so he smiled apologetically at Sifujin and said, "Sometimes I can't stop talking with this mouth. That’s right, my fourth sibling reminded me.”

She sighed: "I didn't believe in this kind of thing at first, but the third elder brother has soft ears. I don't know who to listen to. I believe it. It's rude to ask me here. But I went back and said no, third elder brother I don't know whether to believe it or not."

Thinking of Niu Gulu Gege, Si Fujin whispered to San Fujin: "There will never be such a prescription, if there is, it must be harmful."

When San Fujin heard this, he immediately became vigilant, nodded repeatedly and said: "Forget it, I came here on purpose, if the third elder brother doesn't believe it, let him ask the fourth elder brother!"

After finishing speaking, she suddenly asked: "By the way, fourth brother and sister, is the shop selling Yurong ointment on your side still open?"

Si Fujin was taken aback: "The one who wants to open the door is that there was a lot of trouble with the sister-in-law before. People often went to the Geng family to inquire about it. They were worried that it would affect the business of the shop, so they didn't open it for the time being. The third sister-in-law asked this, because..."

Sanfujin said with some embarrassment: "It wasn't the Yurong ointment that the fourth elder brother gave back. The third elder brother gave it all to Wang, and the others didn't have it at all. Wang was originally born beautiful, and after applying the Yurong ointment, it became even more beautiful." It looks good, and the third elder brother is fascinated. Even if it's not for the third elder brother, who doesn't want to be able to look good?"

She wanted it very much, not to please the third elder brother, but to look beautiful in the mirror herself!

Wang's face was already pretty, but after using Yurong Ointment, her skin could be broken, her skin was as white as snow, and she became even more beautiful. Anyone in the backyard would not be envious, jealous, or want her!

Sanfujin came to see Sifujin now, and said enviously: "I haven't seen the fourth sibling for a while, and her skin has improved, and everyone looks much better."

Si Fujin was a little embarrassed by the praise, so he could only say: "After the matter subsides, the shop should open, and I will send someone to tell Sister-in-law San when the time comes."

Seeing that Sanfujin was still staring at him eagerly, Sifujin had no choice but to say: "I still have two cans of Yurong ointment here. I will use it for my sister-in-law first. It tastes like sweet-scented osmanthus. I don't know if my sister-in-law likes it or not."

"I like it, thank you fourth sibling."

Sanfujin went back happily with two cans of Yurong ointment, and as soon as Sifujin sat down, Wufujin ushered in.

Si Fujin was surprised. After all, Wu Fujin was timid and shy, and rarely went out for a walk, so he actually went out here now?

When Wu Fujin came over, he met San Fujin's carriage on the road, so he naturally knew that the third sister-in-law had been here, so he smiled shyly and said, "I'm bothering the fourth sister-in-law."

Si Fujin smiled and asked her to sit down: "I'm going to disturb you, if you want the fifth sibling to come earlier, you can still meet the third sister-in-law."

Wu Fujin nodded and smiled and said, "Yes, I saw sister-in-law San's carriage on the road."

She was silent for a while before explaining the purpose of her visit: "That's right, I want to ask my sister-in-law, is that Yurongjiao shop still open?"

Si Fujin didn't expect that even Wu Fujin would ask this, so he quickly explained: "It will be opened in a while, and it's still in preparation for now. Do the fifth siblings also want to buy this?"

Wu Fujin nodded lightly, with an embarrassing expression on his face: "Yes, I saw that Liu Jia used Fujin on his side, and it became very beautiful, so..."

Her complexion darkened. As the daughter of a non-member, marrying the fifth elder brother as Fujin is already a high prospect, but she doesn't learn Mongolian well, so she can't speak well with the fifth elder brother, and the relationship between the two is very ordinary.

Although Liu Jiafu Jin was born in the south of the Yangtze River, he is good at Mongolian, which is very popular with the fifth elder brother.

Wu Fujin worked hard to learn Mongolian in secret, but he still didn't want the fifth elder brother to take a second look, so he thought about using this to make it look better. Would it be possible for the fifth elder brother to come to his side a little more?

Sifujin sighed inwardly, and turned around to wink at Nanny Liao beside her.

Nanny Liao backed away quietly, and quickly went to Geng Yi's yard and asked, "Does Geng Gege have extra Yurong ointment here?"

As soon as Geng Yi heard it, he said nothing: "Yes, there is also a jar of tasteless Yurong ointment. Go and get it from Ruyu."

Nanny Liao quickly thanked: "The master gave the two cans of front feet to Sanfujin, and Wufujin came back."

Hearing this, Geng Yi understood that Sifujin was asking Jianghu for emergency, and how could he give it away when he had no food left!

Fortunately, she still has a useless can, otherwise it would be embarrassing.

Nanny Liao hurried back with the jar of Yurong ointment, put it in a brocade box, and quietly carried it back, and put it by Si Fujin's hand.

Si Fujin nodded to her, opened the brocade box and glanced at it, then pushed it to Wu Fujin next to him and said, "I only have one can left here, I will make some more and send it to Wubeile Mansion?"

Wu Fujin accepted it with a smile, and pursed his lips in thanks: "Thank you Sisister-in-law."

Si Fujin held her hand again and sighed: "Fifth brother and sister are a little thinner than last time, and they have to treat themselves better, so relax."

Wu Fujin nodded slightly, knowing that Si Fujin was kindly trying to comfort herself: "Sisao, I know."

After seeing off Wu Fujin, Si Fujin couldn't help but sigh after sitting down again: "What's the matter..."

The fourth elder brother kindly sent a few brothers Yurong ointment, and turned around, these elder brothers gave it to the favored Fujin and Gege, which made Fujin quite embarrassed.

But it's not easy to say anything about other people's family affairs. Si Fujin is afraid that someone will come to her door later. She really has nothing in her hands. Even Geng Yi's side has been squeezed out. There is nothing left. This shop must be opened quickly. OK.

When Si Fujin waited for the fourth elder brother to come back, he talked about what happened today. The fourth elder brother nodded slightly and said: "It has indeed been delayed for a long time. When I went to court, I was asked by several ministers, saying that all the female relatives in the family asked about this matter." thing."

The matter of the lotus cake seems to be suppressed. After all, the emperor has asked about it, but there is no further comment. It proves that it is not something that can really bring the dead back to life. Naturally, everyone's interest has gone down.

The fourth elder brother made a decision and said: "In fact, the store is almost ready. I heard that the nuns have not rested every day and have prepared a lot of goods. It should be enough?"

Si Fujin thought it was enough before, but now that she was coming to ask for it one after another, she began to doubt whether the Yurong ointment was really enough to sell?

Just as she thought, as soon as the store opened the next day, countless housekeepers and nuns rushed in to buy, and they wanted ten or twenty cans at once, and the people behind complained.

Geng Yin wiped his sweat and said: "This Yurong ointment can't be left out, it won't be as good as it used to be after a long time, and it's almost enough for one person to buy at most three cans."

A nanny with a big arm and a round waist squeezed to the front, and she was not happy when she heard it: "My master uses it a lot, and there are many other girls who want to use it together. Ten cans are indispensable."

A tall butler at the back was not happy: "Your master buys so much, what if the people behind can't buy it?"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Geng Yin plucked up the courage to step forward and said, "Three cans per person, this is the rule set by the boss, just buy it after you run out."

The owner he was talking about was of course the fourth elder brother, and the mother-in-law immediately died down, and the butler also shut up and stood behind silently.

The other maids and attendants were planning to step forward to persuade the fight, for fear that the two sides would fight, but who knew that the shopkeeper would settle it with a word, and showed admiration to Geng Yin.

It was the first time for Geng Yin to be surrounded by so many people. In fact, his back was wet with cold sweat, and he still looked normal on the surface. It was hard work to pretend.

However, he was a little happy and satisfied when he was watched by the servant girls and attendants.

He is no longer the self he used to be. He even raised his head and chest, walked back and forth, and could immediately make adjustments if something went wrong.

Fortunately, when Geng Yin mentioned the owner at the beginning, the people behind were all sensible, obediently, everyone bought three cans.

It’s just that some flavors in the back are out of stock, and they started to make trouble again. They feel that the people in the front have sold out, and there are no flavors to choose from in the back.

Geng Yin stepped forward and explained with a smile: "Don't worry, no matter what the taste, the effect is the same. If you don't like this taste, you really can't choose other ones, so you can come here a few days later."

Those people immediately shut up when they heard it. In a few days, wouldn't the master who was waiting to use them at home want to peel their skins?

They just complained a few words, but they really didn't dare not buy it, after all, if they hesitated for a while, they would lose everything!

It took only half a day to open the door, and the Yurong ointment that had been stored for half a month was wiped out, not even a can.

The rest of the people sighed and stayed at the shop, refusing to leave.

Geng Yin had no choice but to ask the attendant to invite the person out politely, and leave the address, and send someone to deliver it to the door as soon as the goods are available, which is considered to appease the people.

After the attendants closed the door of the shop, Geng Yin signaled that they could go back to rest after tidying up the shop, and then turned around and went back to the small courtyard behind.

He entered the small courtyard, saw that there was no one around, and immediately smiled and danced, circling around: "It's done, it's sold out, it's done, haha!"

Mrs. Geng was washing clothes by the well, when she heard the voice and turned her head to see Geng Yin's appearance, she was stunned.

YouQi Geng Yin smiled and turned around while muttering to herself, as if she was crazy with joy, she hurried forward: "Husband?"

When Geng Yin saw his wife, he hugged her and said, "The Yurong ointment in front is all sold out, it's only been half a day, and they're all sold out!"

Mrs. Geng was funny, she patted her husband on the back and said, "Okay, okay, my husband is the best, so I'm out of stock, what should I do tomorrow?"

Hearing this, Geng Yin was also stunned: "That's right, I'm going to tell the nuns behind me to do more quickly!"

Originally, he saw that the goods were limited, so he limited each person to three cans, so he could sell them to a few more households.

A lot of people just bought it out of curiosity after hearing the rumors. If they didn’t buy it for the first time, they might not come back the second time. Therefore, each person should save a little, and a few more people will know that it is a good thing after buying it and using it. There will be repeat customers. up!

Unexpectedly, Geng Yin still underestimated the curiosity of the nobles in the capital, and sold out in half a day. Wouldn't the shelves be empty tomorrow?

Several nuns stayed in the back for a day without stopping, taking turns lighting the fire to make Yurong ointment, and they were also sweating profusely from exhaustion.

Seeing Geng Yin, one of the nuns hurriedly said, "The shopkeeper, there are only a few of us, and we are really too busy."

Brother Si and Si Fujin probably didn't expect this product to be so easy to sell, so they only picked a few stern-tongued mothers to make it. They are strong, and they thought about making a few more pots a day and taking turns to rest, but they were sold out in half a day. , They are not overbearing, they can't finish it at all!

Geng Yin had no choice but to go to the door to report the matter to the fourth elder brother, thinking whether to send a few more people, and then buy the surrounding yards, expand production, and make more Yurong ointment?

Si Fujin suggested to invite Guan Ya to come and buy directly. It can be a death contract or a living contract, but the contract cannot be less than ten years. After all, the formula of Yurong ointment has to be kept secret.

The fourth elder brother felt that this method was feasible, so he asked Su Peisheng to buy the surrounding yard, and Si Fujin asked Liao Nanny to meet with Guan Ya to arrange the matter.

Su Peisheng came back empty-handed, and said with a wry smile: "Master, the people in the surrounding yard said that the owner does not sell it, but only rents it."

The fourth elder brother was surprised: "Who is the owner of those yards?"

Su Peisheng shook his head and said, "They won't say it, the servant hasn't figured it out yet."

The fourth elder brother was frowning, and the servants from outside came to report, saying that it was the ninth elder brother who had come.

He was full of surprise: "Please Jiudi go and sit in front."

The fourth elder brother wondered why the ninth elder brother came, wouldn't he still find him to partner in the business of Yurong ointment?

Nine elder brothers came in and drank half a cup of tea, apparently in a hurry, when they saw fourth elder brother, they smiled and said, "My brother hurried over when he heard the news, I heard that fourth elder brother wants to buy my yard?"

The fourth elder brother was really surprised this time: "Then those yards around belong to the ninth brother?"

Brother Jiu nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, the next door is the busiest street. There are many merchants coming and going, and there are also many people doing business. Soon the next door will be full, so I have to move here. I will take advantage of the cheap price. I bought it all in one go more than a year ago. But the yard was not bought directly under my name, it was hung on the people below. They told me as soon as they received the news, so my brother came. "

The fourth elder brother has to say that the ninth elder brother is still very good at doing business. He has already started the layout a year or two ago. He bought a yard while the price was cheap, and now the price can be doubled. After he sat down He asked: "Then the ninth brother is willing to part with you and sell those yards to me? The price is negotiable."

Brother Nine smiled and said: "We are two brothers, saying that money hurts our feelings! The fourth brothers in these yards just use it, and the younger brother doesn't take a cent!"

The fourth elder brother didn't show much joy, but became vigilant: "Ninth brother, you are being polite, how can I take advantage of you, tell me what you want?"

Brother Nine rubbed his hands and laughed: "What the fourth brother understands is that the business of Yurong Ointment can let the younger brother get involved?"

The fourth elder brother knew that he was still thinking about this, and if he knew that he didn't agree, the ninth elder brother probably wouldn't give him the yard, so he asked, "Then how does the ninth brother plan to get involved?"

Nine Brothers stretched out a slap: "How about our brothers, two fifty-five points?"

Even if the fourth elder brother is not very good at buying and selling, he can still know how outrageous this ratio is.

He was not in a hurry to refuse, but said tactfully: "Then let me think about it first, the yard is not in a hurry."

The fourth elder brother drove them away without finishing the conversation, but kept the ninth elder brother to have dinner together.

The other brothers rarely visit as guests, and the fourth elder brother still wants to entertain the ninth elder brother well.

Si Fujin ordered the kitchen to prepare a table of meals for Brother Jiu, and Chef Ma wanted to break his head.

I heard that elder brother Jiu likes western things the most, but he is not good at the dishes there.

Chef Ma couldn't figure it out, so he had the cheek to ask Xiao Zhuzi to go secretly to Geng Yi's side to see if he could come up with an idea.

When Geng Yi heard that Brother Nine liked Western food, he immediately thought of fried steak and salad.

Brother Si must not be used to these two things, and Brother Jiu may not be used to them either.

He likes it, but liking it is one thing, eating it is another.

Moreover, Brother Jiu grew up in the palace, and all he ate was Chinese food, and he had a Chinese stomach. If he suddenly ordered some Western food, they might even have a stomachache from eating it.

So Geng Yi said: "Why does Ma Banban cook some novel Western food, and how can there be time to cook it for the first time?"

It's the first time Chef Ma is not good at something like this, isn't he afraid of overturning?

The fourth elder brother finally entertained a younger brother who came to the door. He really overturned. No one can save Chef Ma!

She still likes Chef Ma's craftsmanship very much, and she is afraid that the fourth elder brother will really get angry and throw him out.

Xiao Zhuzi hurried back and said, Chef Ma touched the cold sweat on his forehead and nodded gratefully: "Thank you, Geng Gege, for reminding me, I understand how to do it."

It was he who was stunned and wanted to cook Western food without any preparations. If Geng Yi hadn't reminded him, he might have messed up the reception!

Chef Ma thought for a while, ordered a few dishes, and then started to work.

He asked his disciples to chop the chicken into pieces first, then beat in eggs and mix it with a special sauce to marinate for a while, while the apprentice on the other side made the dough, rolled it into a thin sheet, and then put the marinated chicken on it. Go in, add diced winter bamboo shoots, fungus and water chestnuts, roll all the fillings into the dough and fry them in a [-]% hot oil pan.

After a while, both sides will be fried until golden brown, then you can pick them up, put them on a plate and decorate them, and then serve.

In addition, I scooped up two bowls of yam and chicken soup that had been stewed in the kitchen for several hours. Brother Jiu was quite novel. First, he followed Brother Si to drink the soup. warmed up.

In addition, the fried golden rolls were brought up. Brother Jiu took a bite. The surface was crispy, and the stuffing inside was well marinated, with a strong fragrance, vegetables and meat, and it was still golden yellow, very beautiful.

Brother Nine couldn't wait to stretch out his chopsticks after eating one, and boasted with a smile: "Fourth brother's cooking skills here are really good, younger brother should come over as a guest sooner."

The fourth elder brother smiled and nodded: "It's good that the ninth brother likes it, and I can come here often in the future."

Ninth elder brother smiled and squinted his eyes: "My younger brother will come more in the future, fourth brother don't dislike me."

The chicken rolls are well done, and there are only three per person. After drinking the soup, another dish is also served.

This is a dish of vinegared fish. Fresh herring is cut into several large pieces, fried in oil, then added with vinegar, sauce and cooking wine and stewed for a while before serving.

The surface of the fried herring is golden and crispy, but the fish inside is still fresh and tender. The fish juice is still wrapped in the fish, which is more delicious and juicy than ordinary fish.

The sweet and sour taste is even more appetizing. Brother Jiu moved his chopsticks frequently, and half of the plate of fish went into his stomach: "My brother has never liked fish very much, but this dish is very good."

The last thing served is a large bowl of whitebait wontons, only the size of a thumb. Add some sauce to the whitebait, stir-fry it for a while, wrap it in the wontons and cook it. It will be ready to serve in a short time.

Because the two of them had a lot of food, Chef Ma made a large pot, fearing that it would not be enough, and prepared a little more raw wontons, so that they could add wontons to the pot immediately after the two of them used up.

Brother Jiu is a half-child, so his appetite is even bigger. He only felt full after eating three bowls in a row.

The fourth elder brother also added a bowl, and he was very satisfied after eating.

After eating enough, Brother Nine reluctantly left. Before leaving, he said, "Fourth Brother, think about my younger brother more. With my younger brother around, this business must be even more powerful!"

The fourth elder brother had no choice but to send the ninth elder brother out with a smile, secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

If Brother Nine got involved in this business, it would actually save him a lot of trouble.

After all, brother Jiu is really good at making money, and he has a good vision, but this ratio is really bad.

It was Geng Yi who came up with Yurong Paste after all, so the fourth elder brother went to her as soon as he turned around, intending to ask her what she thought.

Geng Yi could have any idea, as soon as he heard Brother Jiu's words, he almost jumped up and shouted: Profiteer!

She came up with the prescription of Yurong ointment, Si elder brother found the shop, Si elder brother and Si Fujin sent people to find the people who made Yurong ointment, and the shopkeeper was from the Geng family.

Looking back, Brother Nine took out one or two of the surrounding yards, and maybe helped to promote it along the way, so he was going to take [-]% of it?

Profiteer, it's really too dark to start, isn't this bullying people!

Geng Yi gritted his teeth in his heart, fearing that the fourth elder brother would be deceived by the sweet words of the ninth elder brother, he hurriedly asked, "Didn't you agree with the ninth elder brother?"

The fourth elder brother shook his head and said: "I said to think about it first, and I didn't directly agree or refuse. Why, do you think this can't be done?"

Geng Yi thought to himself that this cannot be done, Brother Jiu is nothing but a white wolf!

"Master is kind-hearted, and he is good to the younger brothers, even Brother Jiu's [-]% is too much." Geng Yi tried to tactfully persuade the fourth brother, his brows almost knit together.

The fourth elder brother suddenly smiled, stretched out his hand to pinch the stunned Geng Yi and said, "Don't worry, I'm not that stupid."

The ninth elder brother dared to ask for [-]%, didn't he think that the fourth elder brother's usual appearance was because he didn't know how to do business and was not familiar with common affairs?

If you want to change to another elder brother, it is really possible to be fooled by the ninth elder brother.

But the fourth elder brother is different. Before Si Fujin entered the house, the mundane affairs of the mansion were not managed by the nanny, but by himself. He had to read the accounts in person, and he knew the prices well. Without him, let alone the half-grown ninth elder brother.

He didn't directly refuse, because he didn't want to make too much trouble with Brother Jiu in person.

Moreover, the fourth elder brother did intend to cooperate with the ninth elder brother, but he did not allow the ninth elder brother to reach out at will.

"Jiudi is indeed talented in business. If we cooperate with him, Yurong Ointment can be sold better and farther, so we don't need to bother too much. If it's [-]%, it's just like you said, it's a little too much."

Geng Yi didn't ask for a dividend when he came out with the prescription. The ninth elder brother didn't give anything, just a few courtyards, and he didn't give it to the fourth elder brother. He wanted to take it back later, and took most of it without giving anything at all. How could the fourth elder brother let him get what he wanted?

The fourth elder brother tapped the table with his fingertips and said: "I plan to give Ninth Brother a cold shoulder and talk about this cooperation later. Don't worry, I won't suffer."

Geng Yi breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the fourth elder brother was not fooled by the ninth elder brother, so he was relieved.

The fourth elder brother looked at her amusedly and asked, "Why, do I seem to be so easy to be deceived?"

Geng Yi said embarrassingly: "If the concubine is concerned, it will be chaotic. The master must understand better than the concubine."

The fourth elder brother is a person who handles big things, and sometimes he is willing to suffer because he doesn't want to care about it. It doesn't mean that everyone can fool him like he is a fool.

The fourth elder brother smiled and said: "It's good that you understand, you are too young to worry too much."

He only mentioned it, then pressed the matter and didn't continue to talk, and really started to hang out with Brother Jiu.

Ninth brother thought it would be enough for fourth brother to think about it for two or three days, but who knew that there was no movement for half a month, which made him anxiously scratching his heart and lungs, and couldn't help muttering to eighth brother: "Mynah, what do you think? Will fourth brother agree? Or is my request too much?"

The eighth elder brother glanced at the ninth elder brother: You also know that this request is too much, and you dare to mention it to the fourth elder brother. Do you really think that the fourth elder brother is a fool?

He has always been a good brother, and he didn't expose Brother Ninth to his face, so he said: "Maybe Fourth Brother needs to think about it, Ninth Brother will wait a little longer."

After finishing speaking, the eighth elder brother had to continue to go to Guangshan library to be busy, and he didn't have time to continue to comfort the ninth elder brother.

Don't mention how depressed he was, he wandered around the palace and asked the eunuch beside him to go out to the store to have a look, and quickly reported back and forth: "There are more and more customers, and there are really not many Yurong ointments in the store, so Each person can only buy one jar. There are too many people going, so I’m afraid it will be too late, and I can’t even buy this jar.”

When he heard it, he scratched his heart like having an extra cat's paw. If the fourth brother is willing to cooperate with him, there will be not enough Yurong Ointment to sell, and there will only be not enough people to buy it!

Seeing so many silver coins slipping by in front of him, but none of them belonged to him, the fourth elder brother would let the money be thrown into the water and not pick it up, the ninth elder brother was really uncomfortable!

Ninth elder brother suddenly got up and said: "No, I have to ask fourth brother again."

He can't leave the palace at will, he can only wander around the palace gate, waiting for the fourth elder brother to catch someone when he leaves the palace.

Who knew that the fourth elder brother was like a slippery loach, he couldn't catch it no matter what, every time the ninth elder brother was about to see someone, he heard that the fourth elder brother's carriage had left the palace a long way.

Ninth elder brother wondered, could it be that fourth elder brother still avoided him?

He didn't have anyone to discuss with. Elder Brother Ten was just a naive guy. Every time he asked something, he would just nod "hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" every time he asked anything, and he couldn't give any advice.

Unfortunately, the eighth elder brother has been very busy recently, and he has not been seen. Occasionally, he would show a tired look, so it is not easy to bother the ninth elder brother.

Especially in a few days, the eighth elder brother will be ready to set off to pick up the fourteenth elder brother back, so naturally he has to do all the work in his hand before going out.

The eighth brother has always been responsible, and it is impossible to leave half of the work and leave.

In order to pick up the fourteenth elder brother, the eighth elder brother forcibly put more than ten days of work into six or seven days, and his whole body was about to collapse. After arriving, he quickly stopped the carriage and asked, "Where is there a store nearby, let's go buy some snacks."

They had just left the city, and there was nothing good outside the city, so the eunuch had no choice but to rush back to the city and buy two large boxes of snacks, which were filled to the brim.

The confidant eunuch next to the eighth elder brother didn't understand: "Master, is this prepared for the fourteenth elder brother?"

Hearing this, the eighth elder brother laughed and said, "Yes, the officers and soldiers of the West Camp heard that they take good care of the fourteenth brother, and always bring them delicious food."

The confidant eunuch only felt that the eighth elder brother was so caring and thoughtful, and couldn't help but admire: "The master is so kind to the fourteenth elder brother, Ai Wu and Wulian have taken good care of everyone around him."

The eighth elder brother just smiled, took a nap for a while and finally arrived at Xidaying.
