sheepskin for melon

Tan Yushu felt that if he didn't find something for Brother Chi, he would find something for him.

Taking advantage of Chi Li's frenzied plans and looking for reasons to ask the teacher, Tan Yushu hurriedly said: "The weather is very good today. I heard that Miao Niangzi's noodle shop has added a new product. Let's go and see it together?"

Chi Li snorted coldly, diverting attention?It's not easy, he wrote it all down!

But he was also quite curious about what his mother made again, so he ate hastily and went out with Tan Yushu.

The weather was hot, and the two of them went out in green shirts and thin clothes. They didn't ask anyone to prepare a car, and they rode straight there. As soon as they arrived at Miao Niangzi's shop, they saw a long queue outside, and the whole street was blocked.

In modern times, Miao Dongmei secretly wanted to surprise everyone, so no one except Chi's father knew what she did, and Chi Li didn't know either.

The crowd was crowded, and it was difficult for Chi Li to approach with his horse, so he grabbed a person who squeezed out from the crowd and asked, "I don't know what is being robbed inside? Why are there so many people?"

Half of the man's shoes had been trampled off, and he was lifting his shoes. He raised his head impatiently when he heard the question, and was stunned when he saw the red rose on the neck of the questioner.

And the green-shirted scribe beside him, as good-looking as a painting, must be the master's close friend, General Tianwei!

Immediately he straightened his body, made a big bow, and stammered: "Master, everyone here is trying to grab the hot sauce from Mrs. Miao's house."

Hot sauce?Chi Li suddenly realized that his mother really has a way.

Steamed buns dipped in hot sauce, whoever eats them will not be confused.

After reporting the content to Chi Li, the person who was suddenly caught for questioning still did not dare to move. Seeing this, Tan Yushu smiled and thanked him, and let the person go away.

The man breathed a sigh of relief, seeing the fierce look of the master, he thought the master was going to snatch his hot sauce to worship the Buddha, luckily!fortunately!

I hid the chili sauce in a bamboo tube in my arms. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen meat in my family. The whole family’s mouths faded, but the chili sauce from Mrs. Miao’s house is better than meat, and it’s cheap. Take it back to give The child satiates his hunger.

Pond: ...

afraid of what?Does he just look like a bad guy?

"puff--"

Tan Yushu couldn't help snickering, but Chi Li gave him a vicious look, and immediately pretended to look forward solemnly: "Look at this line, I don't know how long it will take."

As soon as the words fell, Xiaoer's voice came from the store: "Today's hot sauce is sold out, hurry up tomorrow!"

There was a loud sound of disappointment in the crowd. There was no hot sauce, some people dispersed in despondency, and some went to the noodle shop next to them to buy some steamed buns, and the rest stayed beside the sauce shop without hot sauce. I want a can of leek sauce.

After the leeks in Erfa Temple had been harvested one crop after another, they finally retired with honor. Chi Mu harvested the leeks in Erfa Temple, pressed them into leek flower sauce, let it play its final value, and then sold it together with chili sauce.

Leek, a vegetable that can grow in every corner, can be grown in the yard of ordinary farmers. The leek flower sauce can be stored for a long time, so every time the leek is old and blooms, the farmers leave the seeds and pick the leek flower It is not uncommon to press it into a sauce and save it for eating.

But Mrs. Miao's shop is located in the city. Like modern cities, most of the workers in Yongjing City are not engaged in agricultural production. Once I go, it is also very cheap.

Seeing that there were fewer people, Chi Li and Tan Yushu drove their horses closer, Tan Yushu said with a smile: "Ms. Miao's business is really good, what good business did she do, are we late?"

Seeing that it was them, Chi's mother's eyes lit up, but now that there are so many people, she immediately pretended to be unfamiliar: "Master Tan was joking, it's just some low-level stuff, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch Mr. Tan's eyes, but I still have some Rural wild food, if Mr. Tan doesn't mind, please take it away."

After finishing speaking, he packed something from behind, filled a full food box, and handed it to Tan Yushu.

As the nominal "lord of the family" of Mrs. Miao and her husband, Tan Yushu took this "filial piety" as a matter of course, so he stretched out his hand to grab it: "Thank you Mrs. Miao, I will send someone to bring the food box back later."

"It's okay, it's okay, Master Tan just take it away!"

Grandpa Tan suddenly smiled, and turned his horse away with Master Miaofa.

Seeing Tan Yushu riding away on horseback, Mother Chi couldn't help sighing in her heart, Xiao Tan is worthy of being a little general, and this riding posture is so handsome!

Oh, I don't know how many little girls will be fascinated in the future, even if the emperor doesn't have a princess, otherwise the high and low must be a son-in-law!

Of course, his son is also very handsome riding a horse!No wonder the boy's father said that, in the past few days in ancient times, it seems that he has really become more and more energetic!

Not only Chi Mu, but other customers who bought the sauce were also stunned when they saw the two heroic immediately, and it took a long time to realize: "That's General Tianwei and Master Miaofa! I read in the script, God General Wei's face is as beautiful as jade, and he is inseparable from the eminent monk of Erfa Temple!"

Chi's mother laughed immediately, she didn't expect his son and Xiao Tan to be so famous now, she nodded and said, "Exactly."

The others were amazed at once: "Ms. Miao's craftsmanship is truly outstanding, even General Tianwei came here admiringly."

Mrs. Miao said with a smile: "Actually, our family is distantly related to Mrs. Tan's family. She has taken care of me when I come to Beijing this time. It is also because of this that Mr. Tan often comes to take care of my business."

The others suddenly felt a little more in awe. Who in Beijing today doesn't know that General Tianwei is a big celebrity in front of the emperor, and his relatives naturally have to respect him a little.

However, the temptation of hot sauce was too great, and several regular customers laughed and said: "Ms. Miao, you are not being honest. You said that the hot sauce is gone, but Master Tan will have it when you come. Tell me honestly, do you have any left over?" Order! We have waited for so long, and it is poor, you see, how much we can order!"

The others immediately echoed.

Mother Chi has been engaged in business at both ends of modern and ancient times recently, so she has cultivated her temperament a little bit, and immediately spat at him: "Bah, you really want to be beaten, do you have to scrape my tank too?"

The others laughed out loud, and the speaker touched his nose, feeling embarrassed.

Mother Chi put her hips on her hips, raised her chin and said loudly: "But I really didn't lie to you. The hot sauce is really gone. The main reason is that there are really few chili peppers used to press the sauce. In fact, our sauce was nothing unusual at first. , all rely on the delicious peppers grown in the Erfa Temple, instead of asking for chili sauce with my eyes, you might as well go to Erfa Temple to ask for some chili seeds, plant them yourself in the coming year, and press the sauce yourself.”

"chili?"

The others had never heard of this name, and they were immediately surprised.

"It turns out that this is also a foreign plant brought back from overseas travels by the eminent monk Du'e. No wonder it is so delicious! I just don't know if the master will be willing to give the seeds..."

Mother Chi recited the Buddha's name: "Don't you understand the character of the eminent monk of Efa Temple? Why are you reluctant to give these things away?"

Others thought about it, yes!Even the leeks in winter can be donated to others at will in Erfa Temple, so why would they be reluctant to give chili seeds!

The others were eager to move and wanted to ask for some chili seeds. After all, this hot sauce is really delicious!

But the person who spoke asked about something else: "Then Mrs. Miao, what did you pretend to be for Master Tan?"

Mother Chi suddenly smiled mysteriously: "Speaking of which, I just made this thing and I haven't planned to sell it yet. If you like it, please help me taste it."

try it?OK!Immediately stretched their necks and looked forward to it, what is it?

Not long after, Mother Chi came out with a plate, and a strange scent instantly occupied everyone's mouths and noses, it smells so good!

His eyes fell on the tray, and he saw a dish that he had never seen before.

Dark brown flakes, sprinkled with a layer of strange little seeds, oily, as if you can squeeze oil out, look like meat, but not like meat.

The scent is very strong, when one end comes over, it fills all the senses in an instant, making people want to swallow uncontrollably, and they forcefully said: "Miss Miao, what is this?"

"This is called spicy slices. If you don't dislike it, just grab one."

dislike?Of course I don't dislike it!

Everyone immediately rushed forward to grab one, but when it was not enough, Mother Chi went into the room and brought another plate.Seeing everyone gobbling it up, he smiled and said, "Is it delicious?"

Crowd: ...

too delicious!

Spicy, salty, and other unknown spices instantly exploded in the mouth and rushed straight to the brain.This taste is definitely not elegant, even a bit vulgar, but in the shortest time, it overbearingly occupied every taste bud in a person, leaving only this taste in people's mind.

Not only that, the chewing is very strong, the more you chew, the more fragrant it is, it doesn't look like real meat, but it is more memorable than real meat.

In ancient times when spices were extremely scarce, ordinary people could taste too few flavors, so this magical modern food - spicy strips, immediately conquered the taste buds of the ancients.

 But this spicy strip was made by Chi Mu with soy skin, so she didn't deliberately twist it into strips and made it into spicy slices.

Anyone who has eaten spicy chips can't describe the refreshing feeling that hits their foreheads. They can only keep nodding: "It's so delicious! It's so delicious! Ms. Miao, when will it be on sale! I want to buy it!"

Mother Chi said awkwardly: "This is not enough for the time being, because this spicy slice also needs to be made with chili peppers, and the current chili peppers are not even enough to press the sauce."

Not only that, but also many other seasonings are needed. The ancient seasonings are very expensive and very scarce. Among other things, the cumin sprinkled on the spicy slices was not available in ancient times.

So it is quite difficult to make spicy slices a common delicacy.

The diners who have tasted that taste and can’t forget it, suddenly beat their chests and feet, so go to Erfa Temple to ask about the chili seeds!

Mother Chi looked at their backs and couldn't help smiling.

In fact, like chives, chili is a kind of "cheap" plant. It is easy to care for and has a high yield. If you plant it casually in the yard, it is enough for a family to eat.

It's so novel now, but it's just that I haven't seen it before. When there are seeds, it will soon become a rare thing.

So Chi Mu opened another shop next to the noodle shop as a sauce shop.Sell ​​some chili sauce, leek sauce, miso, pickles and so on.Of course, in the future, they may also sell some spicy noodles, or duck products that are very popular in modern times.

The noodle shop and the sauce shop sell daily food, even if there is no gimmick of chili peppers, they can’t lose money if they sell it every day.

People who live and work in the city are very tired, and they probably don’t bother to cook when they go home. They buy a few steamed buns or steamed buns, dip them in some chili sauce when they go home, and order side dishes, which saves money and hassle.

So when she returns to modern times, she must study the craft of making sauces and pickles!

……

Tan Yushu carried the food box and walked slowly on the horse. After a while, he couldn't help opening it a little bit quietly. The food box was opened a crack, and the aroma inside suddenly wafted out domineeringly. Tan Yushu's eyes widened suddenly.

Secretly picked up a piece and put it in his mouth...

good to eat!

After eating this piece, I hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't hold back, and stole another piece, it was still delicious!

Looking at the rest with bright eyes, why not eat it quietly!

Chi Li looked at his hopeless look, and snorted coldly: "Why do you like to eat junk food, it has no nutrition at all, and it is harmful to the body."

Tan Yushu: ...

"But junk food is delicious..."

Hmph, childish!

With a cold snort, don't turn your head to look at him, Tan Yushu saw that he didn't look at him, immediately found the right time, and quietly put a piece in his mouth, but Chi Li's gaze was cast over precisely.

Tan Yushu: ...

Then put it in his own mouth again: "Oh, forgot, you can't eat."

Pond: ...

Well, he dared to tease him!

Chi Li looked at Tan Yushu viciously, but Tan Yushu blinked his eyes and returned his innocent expression, making Chi Li furious.

But his eyes fell on his sly smile, and his slightly plump lips because of the pepper, but he felt a little restless, Tan Yushu, it seems to be more delicious than spicy noodles...

Tan Yushu was gradually getting terrified by him, what kind of eyes did Brother Chi have, it was just a joke, as for...

The two played casually for a while, and then returned to Tan's house, mainly because Tan Yushu really wanted to find a quiet place to enjoy these spicy chips slowly!And Chi Li really wanted to find a place to enjoy Tan Yushu slowly!

However, as soon as he reached the door, a few kids got off the carriage, jumped into his arms, and shouted loudly: "Uncle Thirteen!"

Tan Yushu was taken aback for a moment, and after a closer look, it turned out that it was the child of his fifth brother's family. Just as he was about to hug him with a smile, some warning signs suddenly flashed in his mind.

Sure enough, the group of brats shot straight at him like small cannonballs. After hugging his thigh, several pairs of eyes stared at the food box in his hand, full of expectation: " Uncle Thirteen, what's in it, is it delicious?"

Tan Yushu: ...

If they say no, will they believe it?
