Food starts with Mapo Tofu

Chapter 102 Why is it a bit out of focus?
On the same day, Chen Nian directly killed the chicken, plucked the hair and washed it, took out the internal organs, and stuffed various seasonings in it.

In order to retaliate against this guy for harassing himself every night, Chen Nian chose the cruelest method.

bake.

The fish meat is made into squirrel mandarin fish. Although there are no tomatoes in this era, after all, the wisdom of the working people is infinite. Stir-fried sugar color and some sweet and sour sauce can also make that kind of feeling.

Of course, Wensi tofu is also essential.

In addition, there are croquettes, fried tofu and so on.

It was the first time for Little Peony to eat old-cooked food. Although Fu Xin had told her about it before, Little Peony basically didn't take it to heart.

Because she knew that Fu Xin's family background was average since he was a child, and maybe some things that seemed ordinary to her, Fu Xin would also find them delicious.

Although Xiao Mudan is an actor, she does not belong to the ranks of scholars, farmers, businessmen, but belongs to the humble family.

Among all the opera actors, Little Peony already belongs to the luckiest group. All she needs to do is sing every day. The opera garden behind is raised by a nobleman, and that nobleman doesn't seem to have much interest in Little Peony. Someone else will come. It seems to be fruitless in the end.

And even if Xiao Mudan and Fu Xin got together, the people behind would turn a blind eye.

Therefore, Little Peony's life is already comparable to that of some rich ladies.

However, seeing these dishes on the table
"You did all this?"

Fu Xin was very proud: "That's natural. Now brother Chen is not only selling tofu, but also the chef of Ruyilou. You can find a few regular customers of Ruyilou and you will know. The current brother Chen's reputation is not ordinary. .”

Those who don't know how proud they are may still think that these dishes are made by Fu Xin.

But Chen Nian just smiled modestly: "Small trouble, just do it casually."

Little Mudan pointed to the roast chicken: "But, why does this roast chicken look a bit burnt?"

Fu Xin followed Little Peony's scalloped fingers to look at the table. Sure enough, although the roast chicken exuded a burst of fragrance, there was a large area of ​​burnt black on the back.

Chen Nian scratched his head: "Don't pay attention to these details. After all, it's the first time I've made this kind of baked food, so I can't master the heat. After a few times, it will be almost the same, but there is also a rumor in our place that eating burnt You can pick up money when you go out.”

Fu Xin also hurriedly came out to smooth things over at this time: "Yes, yes, people are not sages, who can do nothing? I think this chicken should be tender on the outside and tender on the inside!"

Seeing this, Xiao Mudan also nodded: "Fu Lang is right. If everything is too perfect, it is actually a defect."

These two people praised each other one by one, and the old man was overjoyed to hear it.

A scholar and an opera singer are both very good at talking.

So, after this meal, everyone was happy.

In the end, Fu Xin and Xiao Mudan did not leave, but Chen Nian left.

Because the theater is closed at night, it is not good to just go back.

Moreover, there is no curfew in Yangzhou, so it is inevitable that we will meet other people on the road. Little Peony is an actor and now some of them are well-known.

The little peony now thinks that she entrusts Fu Xin wholeheartedly, her own hopes, her own future, and her own body.

I hope that in the future, Fu Xin will come back and take him away no matter if he fails the high school entrance examination.

Even if life is poor, it is worth it.

In the end, the two of them didn't use Chen Nian's bed, after all, Fu Xin also knew that Chen Nian liked to be clean.

However, Yangzhou in the middle of the night.

Walking on the street, Chen Nian suddenly felt like a clown.

Before, I always felt that looking for a partner was not a good thing, including the former roommate who found a partner and sometimes did not come back in the middle of the night. Chen Nian was accompanied by a good brother. I felt that playing games on mobile phones and watching video courses at night were also very happy. .

but now.

The street is so quiet.

The moon is so round.

The street is dark without street lights.

"Damn it, isn't it just that there is someone? What's the big deal! I just don't want to look for it, otherwise I can't find it with my handsome face and my cooking skills?"

However, this kind of thing only happened once after all.

Passing the state test is just the beginning, after that is the most important thing.

Although it is said that in the last round of the palace examination, there are only rankings and no elimination, but the premise is to pass the provincial examination first.

After that celebration banquet, Fu Xin basically went to see Little Peony once a month.

The rest of the time is either selling characters or reading books, or selling characters and reading books at the same time.

And so on until November.

Fu Xin bid farewell to Chen Nian.

He is going to Chang'an.

Chang'an is also the capital of Great Xia, the name has not changed, but Chen Nian does not know whether this Chang'an is the Chang'an he knows.

Because the next spring will save the test, and it is a long way to go, so we have to start early, and it is too expensive to take a carriage, so we go on foot.

And in the past half a year, although Fu Xin bought a lot of books, he finally asked Zhang Fugui to sell them after reading them several times and memorizing the contents above.

This time, Zhang Fugui did not charge the difference. According to his words, it is not easy for a scholar to study, so there is no need to think about making money in this kind of business.

The final selling price was even more profitable than before.

But even so, Fu Xin still didn't have much money in his hands.

That is to say, before Fu Xin left, Chen Nian said that he would lend Fu Xin 20 taels. It would cost money for food and lodging on the way, and it would cost even more when he arrived in Chang'an City.

"Just return it to me when you make money in the future."

This time Fu Xin did not refuse.

"Aren't you saying goodbye to Little Peony?" Chen Nian asked on the day he left.

"No, parting is always the hardest thing to let go. Little Peony is here, and she will definitely cry when she sees me. I feel sad when I see her cry. If this is the case, it is better to say goodbye and keep this letter." Xin, when I come back next year, no matter whether she beats me or scolds me, I will definitely fulfill my promise."

Chen Nian looked at Fu Xin, not knowing what this man was thinking.

Sometimes it's just a stick.

Like this time.

But Chen Nian knew that Fu Xin had made a decision, so he would not look back, just like he did not accept Xiao Mudan's funding back then.

"In that case, I won't say anything more."

"But I have a sentence for you. If you fail the exam, you will come back. But if I find out that you passed the exam and married the daughter of a rich family to pave the way for your official career, I will definitely If you write poems to scold you, you know my level."

Fu Xin naturally knew that what Chen Nian said was actually because he didn't want to let Xiao Mudan down.

So nodded.

"Don't worry, Brother Chen, if I was that kind of person, would you allow me to live with you for such a long time?"

Chen Nian pouted: "Then who knows?"

Fu Xin was not annoyed when he heard this, nor was he angry that Chen Nian didn't trust him. Instead, he laughed and said: "If I don't come back then, then I will be ruined and be scolded by all generations!"
