The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 851

Because of the cooperation of the ceramic workshop, the affairs of Kangyun Winery were handled very smoothly.

Su Yunduo took Zhang Ping'an and signed a supply agreement with Boss Sun of the ceramic workshop for the next year's ceramic wine jars and wine bottles. Because he felt guilty about Kangyun Wine Workshop, this time Boss Sun specially gave up [-]% of the price. profit.

After several years of development, Kangyun Distillery has basically occupied at least [-]% of the market in the Northland and Northwest regions. The high-quality and good reputation has made the market share still rising steadily. The wine jars and bottles that are needed The number has naturally increased steadily year after year, so although Boss Sun only gave up [-]% of the profit this time, the total amount is not a lot.

Of course, what Su Yunduo valued was not this profit, but Boss Sun's attitude and sincerity.

If Boss Sun didn't handle it properly, Su Yunduo planned to switch to another ceramic workshop to cooperate with. After all, Yongcheng is not the same ceramic workshop as Sun's, and Sun's Ceramic Workshop is not even the largest ceramic workshop in Yongcheng.

The reason why Mr. Sun was chosen back then was also moved by Boss Sun’s sincerity. Fortunately, Boss Sun attached great importance to the cooperation with Kangyun Winery. It is still the sincere Boss Sun back then that allowed Sun’s to continue to be the leader of Kangyun Winery. Partner.

Su Yunduo has been busy at Kangyun Winery for most of the day, and it was not too long before he signed the contract with Boss Sun, so he had time to pay attention to the children's situation.

The five children, together with the youngest Le Jieer, were allowed to enter the production room of the winery for the first time. Master Xiao Zeng personally took them to visit the whole winery, from the raw material selection room to the final wine cellar. , even though it was just a quick glance, and they were only allowed to look through the doors and windows in those workshops that smelled of alcohol, but it still excited the children.

Listening to the children chirping excitedly about what they saw and heard that day, what Su Yunduo felt most grateful for was the care with which the winery was built.

If it hadn't been for the construction of this winery that took a lot of effort to connect all the workshops together with windproof and rainproof corridors, even if she wanted to let the children come to the winery to learn a lot, she really wouldn't dare to bring the children this season Come and visit.

Hot and cold, let alone children, is a taboo for adults.

In this season, Zeng Ru was very opposed to bringing the children to the winery to experience them. Since she arrived in Yongcheng, she wished she could keep Xigeer in the house and not go out, but in the end she couldn't hold back Xigeer's plea, and saw Su Yunduo again. Sister Le, who had just turned two years old, also brought them with her, so she suppressed her inner dissatisfaction and accompanied her to the winery.

After arriving at the winery, she found that the buildings here completely subverted her imagination. After visiting the whole winery, Zeng Ru finally understood why Su Yunduo ignored Yan Han and brought the children to visit.

Such a special group of buildings, although it looks a little dizzy, has too many benefits.

Walking through all the workshops of the winery, there is no fear of wind and rain at all. With the children walking through the corridors and workshops, there is almost no big temperature difference.

"Mother, it stinks!" Compared with the other four children, Sister Le was not so excited, she threw herself into Su Yunduo's arms, and stretched her sleeves in front of Su Yunduo's nose and complained in disgust.

Su Yunduo naturally understood what Sister Le meant, this little girl didn't like to smell the smell of alcohol, and occasionally Lu Jinkang smelled of alcohol on her body when she was socializing, and she would only get close to her after forcing Lu Jinkang to take a bath and change clothes.

Today, I walked with everyone in the wine shop. It was better before, but after the excitement passed, I smelled the wine on my body and felt a little bad.

"Sister, why does it stink? It smells good!" Da Niu Niu is quite comparable to Yang Aoqun in some aspects. A seven-year-old child can already drink a small cup of fruit wine. Now, after listening to Sister Le's words, He raised his sleeve and sniffed vigorously, showing an intoxicated expression.

Sister Le was not happy anymore, she buried her head in Su Yunduo's arms and said loudly: "Smelly! Mother, it smells good!"

Amused the presence of people coincidentally burst into laughter.

Su Yunduo didn't have time to go into the brewing workshop today, and she didn't smell of alcohol on her body, and there was no smell of alcohol that Sister Le didn't like, and she kept her favorite scent of lavender.

Back home from the wine shop, Lu Jinzhen had already received the medicinal materials from Geshan Village. The dozen or so carriages were basically Chinese patent medicines processed by the medicinal material workshop in Geshan Village, and more than half of them were Jinchuang medicine and chilblain ointment.

Among them, two of the cars were all Geshan village specialties carefully prepared by Mrs. Kong for Su Yunduo. There were all kinds of dried vegetables, such as wind chicken, wind duck, wind fish, which Su Yunduo loved to eat. The fresh lotus root with silt is wrapped in thick straw.

Dried chicken, duck, and dried fish can also be bought in northern Xinjiang, but the taste is far inferior to that produced in Geshan Village. Fresh lotus root is a rare commodity in northern Xinjiang.

On the second day, Su Yunduo personally cooked two dishes for everyone with fresh lotus root.

One is to choose the most tender lotus root and cut it into thin slices and fry it directly, and the other is to use old lotus root to make sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root.

Stir-fried lotus root slices are easy to make and refreshing to eat. In such a cold season in northern Xinjiang where only Chinese cabbage is stored in the cellar, it becomes a delicacy on the table.

Su Yunduo also put some thought into this stir-fried lotus root slices. The peeled and thinned tender lotus root slices were soaked in white vinegar for half a cup of tea, so that the stir-fried lotus root slices will not change color and have a sense of transparency .

Heat the oil in the pot, add minced scallion and ginger slices to fry until fragrant, filter off the minced scallion and ginger, pour the lotus root slices into the pan and stir fry, slowly pour a small amount of water while frying, and fry until the lotus root slices are somewhat Transparency, sprinkle with salt and scallion leaves, stir well and then start the pot.

A simple stir-fried lotus root slices is served on the table, which is eye-catching and delicious. Everyone applauds and is very satisfied.

When the meal is almost used up, the sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root made with old lotus root can be served.

For this osmanthus candied lotus root, Su Yunduo had been busy in the kitchen for a while.

Osmanthus candied lotus root is a traditional snack in the Jiangnan area. It has a strong flavor of osmanthus. It is made with lotus root, glutinous rice, and osmanthus as the main ingredients, supplemented by rock sugar.

The kitchen of the Marshal's Mansion in Yongcheng is full of materials. There are osmanthus flowers, glutinous rice and rock sugar that are needed to make osmanthus candied lotus root, otherwise Su Yunduo would not be able to make it.

Waking up early this morning, Su Yunduo ordered Bai Mian to lead someone to pick out the glutinous rice and soak it in clear water. Then he personally picked out several joints of old lotus root, washed the lotus root and peeled off the outer skin. Cut the lotus root, and set the cut lotus joints aside.

At this time, the glutinous rice had been soaked for nearly half an hour, which was exactly what Su Yunduo wanted, so he filled the soaked glutinous rice into the lotus root hole.

At the beginning, I used a spoon to fill the glutinous rice directly into the lotus root hole with my hands. The efficiency was really poor. Su Yunduo looked around the kitchen and saw the hanging funnel. He asked someone to take it for a try, but because the mouth of the funnel was too large, The big lotus hole is too small, which is not satisfactory.

Su Yunduo's eyeballs rolled, and he thought about it, and asked someone to go to the study to get a relatively thick white paper, roll it into a funnel shape three times and two times, cut a small opening at the bottom, and stuff the small opening into the lotus root hole. Pour it into a paper funnel, poke the glutinous rice lightly with a chopstick, and quickly fill the glutinous rice into the lotus root hole.

When the glutinous rice is [-]% full, insert a few small bamboo sticks with two pointed ends into the incision of the lotus root, and then cover the other end of the small bamboo stick with the spare lotus root section cut off earlier to make them reunite.

Here I have to mention this lotus festival.

When Su Yunduo went back to look for the lotus root, he couldn't find it. It turned out that the cook didn't know that the lotus root was useful, and when Su Yunduo was not paying attention, he dropped the lotus root into the trash basket next to it.

When Su Yunduo turned back to look for it, he found that the lotus root was gone. After asking around, he realized that it had been manually put into the trash can. Fortunately, the trash had just been cleaned, and only the lotus root was missing, otherwise Su Yunduo It's really going to be a bit of a headache.

After several sections of old lotus root are filled with glutinous rice, put the sealed lotus root into a large pot, add rock sugar, pour water to cover the lotus root, cover the pot, bring to a boil on high heat, then turn to medium heat and cook for about half an hour. At this time, you can see the swollen glutinous rice squeezed out from the joints of the lotus root joints with bamboo sticks. After turning off the fire and simmering for a quarter of an hour, take out the lotus root slices and place them on a plate. .

This sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root dish has the powder of old lotus root, the cotton of glutinous rice, and the sweetness of rock sugar. It is naturally loved by everyone when it is served, and even the sick Bei Shi ate two slices in one go.

Now that he received the medicinal materials, Lu Jinzhen couldn't stay in Yongcheng for a long time. After the medical liquor from Kangyun Winery was loaded, he took two convoys back to Bonicheng.

Su Yunduo had to share half of the special products sent by Geshan Village and send them to Boni City.

After Lu Jinzhen led the team to leave Yongcheng, Su Yunduo began to pack her bags. Her destination was naturally not Boni City, but Yanshan Mansion and Geshan Village.

The purpose of going to Yanshan Mansion is to transport all the grain from the Zhuangzi in Yanshan Mansion to Yongcheng. Originally, Su Yunduo didn't need to do it in person, but she came from Tietou who was in charge of the pharmacy in Geshan Village to escort the medicinal materials. Heard a very bad news.

The old doctor Kong has been ill for almost half a year. For this reason, Kong Erye, who opened a pharmacy in the capital, brought Sun Hongfei and Su Zechen to Geshan Village from the capital last month. It still didn't improve Dr. Kong's condition.

Although the old doctor Kong confiscated Su Yunduo as his apprentice, he still has a mentor-student friendship. Su Yunduo's news is naturally distraught, and he decided to go to Yanshan Mansion in person.

Originally, Su Yunduo only mentioned this matter to Yang Aoqun and Zeng Ru. Before leaving Yongcheng, she didn't want Brother Huan and Sister Le to know about it. It's just that Brother Huan is a traitor, and I don't know where he noticed it. When it came to the clues, Su Yunduo was still packing his luggage, so he found Su Yunduo and said that he would follow Su Yunduo to Yanshan Mansion and Geshan Village.

From Yongcheng to Yanshan Mansion and then to Geshan Village is at least [-] miles. Even if the trip goes smoothly in this season, it will take about ten days. It is not as good as the one hundred and ten miles from Boni City to Yongcheng, which can be reached in one or two days. Su Yunduo would definitely not dare to bring Brother Huan with him.

"Mother promised you that she would take you to Geshan Village to see the place where Mother grew up. It's just that this time, Mother is in a hurry and must get to Geshan Village as soon as possible, so she can't take you. When the weather is warmer next year, Mother will definitely bring you You go. You listen to your mother's words, study and practice martial arts with your husband, and mother will give you another task to take care of your sister for mother, can you do it?" Su Yunduo squatted in front of Brother Huan, putting his hands on Brother Huan on his shoulders, his eyes were at his level, and his attitude was very serious and cautious.

Maybe Su Yunduo's attitude infected Brother Huan, or maybe it was because of Su Yunduo's promise, Brother Huan didn't insist anymore, but nodded solemnly to Su Yunduo: "Don't worry, mother, I will take care of you." Sister's!"

The reason why Su Yunduo was so anxious to run this trip was because what Tietou said gave her a very bad feeling. She was afraid that if she didn't go this time, she might not even be able to see Old Doctor Kong for the last time. After all, Old Doctor Kong is now seventy years old, and it is indeed rare for people to reach seventy here!

Su Yunduo took the two couples, Zilian and Zitiao, and a dozen or so guards all the way from Yongcheng to Yanshan Mansion. When they arrived at Yanshan Mansion, they left behind Zilian and Zitiao, and asked them to take her token directly. Going to Zhuangzi in the outskirts to adjust food, she herself picked four guards and went to Geshan Village with two maids, Hongtao and Ziling, and Tietou.

"Sister, why did you come to Geshan Village in such a cold day, where are Brother Huan and Sister Le?" Su Zechen immediately asked when he saw Su Yunduo.

Su Yunduo stretched out his hand and gave Su Zechen a slap in the face: "You said it was cold, how can you bring those two little ones with you? How is Master?"

Mentioning old doctor Kong's body, the smile on Su Zechen's face faded, and he said sadly, "It's not very good."

Mrs. Kong heard that Su Yunduo was coming, and thought she had heard it wrong. Until Su Yunduo appeared in front of her, she still thought she was dazzled. After confirming that it was Su Yunduo, she took Su Yunduo's hand and complained: "The old man is getting old, and it's common for him to get sick. It's so cold, why should you be running around like this?"

Su Yunduo held Mrs. Kong's hand tightly and said: "Although Mr. did not accept me as an apprentice, he taught me a lot. Since Mr. Jing is a teacher, he said that he will be a teacher for one day and be a father for life, let alone just profile It's snowing, even if it's a knife, you should come to visit Mr.

Su Yunduo's few words are not empty words, she really regards old doctor Kong as her husband.

In Su Yunduo's heart, old doctor Kong is not only a husband, but also a benefactor. If it weren't for old doctor Kong, Su Chengzhi's illness would not have recovered so quickly and completely.

If Su Chengzhi's illness hadn't recovered soon, their family would have had a long and difficult life.

Fortunately, Old Doctor Kong's condition was not as serious as Su Yunduo expected, but compared to a few years ago, Old Doctor Kong was indeed much weaker. Looking at the old man on the bed, Su Yunduo's heart was really sore, astringent and sad.

Although the old doctor Kong said that his body was much weaker, his mind was very clear. He was very happy to see Su Yunduo, and after talking with Su Yunduo, he began to urge Su Yunduo to leave: "You are now the wife of the Marshal of Beijiang, you can't Just leave Zijian and the children alone. Although my old bones are useless, I can’t die for the time being. You can rest overnight today and go back tomorrow. What should you do! The military needs Medicines, just tell Tie Tou and Lao Er, they will arrange it."

In this way, she rushed to Geshan Village to meet the old doctor Kong. Su Yunduo discussed with Tietou and Kong Erye overnight to order a batch of Jinchuang medicine, and reluctantly left Ge with her own people the next day. Shancun rushed back to Yanshan Fucheng.
