The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 187
Su Chengzhi went to Dongsheng Inn today and learned about the current predicament of the two friends from Tietou, so he left all the few taels of money he had with them to the two friends without saying a word.

The Zuo brothers knew that Su Chengzhi's family was not rich and would not take it, so Su Chengzhi pretended to be angry and insisted on keeping the money.

Thinking about most of the family's money is earned by Su Yunduo's painstaking efforts, I am afraid that Su Yunduo will be unhappy, and I feel a little timid in my heart.

"I've heard about this too. Did dad leave money for them?" Su Chengzhi's cautious eyes naturally avoided Su Yunduo's eyes, and she simply asked clearly.

When Su Chengzhi went out today, he only planned to bring two copper coins with him, but Su Yunduo specially brought him a few taels of extra silver with him, and asked Tongshan to bring some emergency silver with him. If you have the opportunity to help, you can avoid the embarrassment of having no money in any temporary situation.

Although their family is not very rich at present, after more than half a year of painstaking management, the family still has some surplus money, and it is quite capable to help the Zuo brothers in emergency.

Su Yunduo's words immediately made Su Chengzhi heave a long sigh of relief, and at the same time, a sense of pride surged in his heart. His daughter is indeed as capable and kind as the classmates said!
After talking with Su Chengzhi for a while, seeing that the gloomy look on his expression gradually dissipated, but the tired look became more and more intense, knowing that he hadn't fully recovered from the exhaustion of the exam, let him rest quickly.

Tongshan followed Su Yunduo out of Su Chengzhi's room, Su Yunduo whispered a few words to Tongshan, Tongshan nodded and turned to leave the other courtyard to inquire about news.

Lu Jinkang, who was about to go back to the mine, also received the news that Su Yunying had appeared in Yanshan Fucheng and met Su Chengzhi on a narrow road, and he knew the news more completely, even the life experience of the person Su Yunying followed had been found out.

After hearing the news reported by the butler, Lu Jinkang couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

Since the so-called Beijing official can be fascinated by Su Yunying's beauty, it is not a good bird, and his so-called official position is not worth mentioning in Lu Jinkang's eyes.

That man had been wandering around the capital, but he brought Su Yunying to Yanshan Mansion. If it was said that there was no handwriting by Su Yunying, Lu Jinkang would not believe it.

Since Su Yunying wanted to die so much, let her die earlier.

There are many ways to make Su Yunying die earlier, and for Lu Jinkang, there is no need for him to do anything that is just a word.

As for the person Su Yunying was following, let's save his life first, it's not the time to tear up his face with the person behind him.

Even if Lu Jinkang has nothing to ask of Su Yunduo now, just because Su Yunduo is his aunt's "granddaughter", Lu Jinkang can't let these two lifeless things disturb Su Yunduo's finally calm life, let alone Su Yunduo He is still helping him seek welfare for the soldiers in the border town!
Lu Jinkang smiled sinisterly, stretched out his index finger at Jiu'er, and when Jiu'er bent over, whispered a few words in Jiu'er's ear, and then Jiu'er nodded and grinned, showing a cheap With a smile, he turned around and went to work.

Su Yunduo naturally had no way of knowing Lu Jinkang's actions and arrangements until the matter became known to the world. At this moment, she was staring dumbfounded at the chaotic small kitchen in the main courtyard.

Maybe it's because of habit, the cook cut the meat strips too carefully, and the speed was not much faster than embroidery, Su Yunduo shook her head, and felt really tired for her.

The sergeants were in a different situation. At the beginning, they might still be able to follow Su Yunduo's request, but the sergeants, who were always used to making big cuts, had to be strict when they could stand the knife, so they quickly became chaotic. The meat strips were almost up to the meat, and the texture was wrong, so Zisu screamed anxiously.

Zisu, as Su Yunduo's assistant, is almost hoarse at the moment, and the whole person is walking around in the small kitchen, talking about this for a while, and talking about that for a while, but what he gets is the nonsense of the soldiers. It's even more messy in the small kitchen.

Su Yunduo stroked his forehead helplessly, coughed heavily, and stepped into the kitchen with a stern face. Suddenly, there was no sound in the small kitchen, and the sergeant who had countless unreasonable reasons for Zisu immediately closed his mouth, and the action of cutting meat suddenly changed from bold to sharp. In order to be careful, the stiff movements thought they were performing a puppet show!
There was an even more dumbfounding thing, a sergeant actually cut not meat but his own fingers with a knife, and there was a scream, and there was a commotion in the small kitchen.

Fortunately, what Su Yunduo asked everyone to do was to cut meat instead of chop it, otherwise the sergeant's fingers would be completely useless.

It was also fortunate that Su Yunduo knew medicine, and she had made preparations in advance. Her medical kit was placed in a corner of the small kitchen, and the sergeant was soon blotted out, and nothing serious happened.

What happened in the kitchen of the main courtyard naturally reached Lu Jinkang's ears very quickly. Lu Jinkang, who had already prepared his horse and was about to set off, appeared in the small kitchen with a straight face, and glanced at the several sergeants one by one with sharp eyes that were clearly displeased. However, his imposing coercion made several sergeants unable to lift their heads.

"You guys think there is nothing to learn, so go back separately. It's hard to find two-legged toads, and it's hard to find two-legged people? There are many people who want to learn arts!" Lu Jinkang said coldly.

The sergeants were originally people around Lu Jinkang. They didn't know that Lu Jinkang was angry and very angry. They all knelt down and begged for mercy.

After doing this, when Su Yunduo asked everyone to practice again, the effect would come out.

When Lu Jinkang came back this time, he and his guards brought back two big fat wild boars and dozens of hares. Under Su Yunduo's careful guidance, they were all cut into strips in one afternoon. Su Yunduo's request is still a bit far away, compared to before being reprimanded by Lu Jinkang, Su Yunduo is already very satisfied.

The next step is to marinate. Su Yunduo asked everyone to marinate the five-flavored ones first. The required seasonings are available on the operating table. As for the required amount, Su Yunduo only gave suggestions for reference, and let everyone follow her instructions. The weights of the parameters are played out separately.

The results of their respective performances left Su Yunduo quite speechless.

The so-called "five spices" here is just a general term for Su Yunduo, and there are definitely more than five types. For example, her homemade five spice powder, although it is called five spices, has more than ten kinds of seasonings in it.

But in the minds of cooks and sergeants, five spices is a combination of five seasonings, that is, pepper, cinnamon, star anise, grass fruit and pepper blended in a certain proportion.

Of course, this does not mean that they are wrong to do so. After all, the main ingredients of Su Yunduo's homemade five-spice powder are pepper, cinnamon, star anise, grass fruit, and pepper. The so-called five flavors have lost many layers.

Seeing the confidence of several people, Su Yunduo decided not to argue with them for the time being, and to speak with facts is the most powerful way to speak.

After sending the marinated meat to the cold storage in the other courtyard, Su Yunduo waved everyone to disperse, then turned his sore neck and brought Zisu back to the guest courtyard. At this time, Su Chengzhi was sitting in the guest courtyard. Painting under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, Tongshan is by his side.
