After being dressed as cannon fodder, I feed tyrants by cooking skills

Chapter 20 Manniang He

"Hey, what is this delicious? I can smell it from a long distance away." The woman who spoke was dressed in fancy clothes, twisting and twisting across the threshold of the shop.

Jiang Yu put down the plate and looked at the door. The person who came was not a stranger, but the shopkeeper of the tailor shop who had met her once before.

"Isn't this shopkeeper He? Why didn't you just stare at your shop, but came here instead?" Shopkeeper He's name is He Manniang, and she has been running a shop in this tile market for many years. She is also talkative. basket.Some people go to her to buy cloth or clothes, and those who come and go will get familiar with it.

He Manniang couldn't help rolling her eyes, this person's words were really interesting, asked her what she was doing in this restaurant, was she coming to the restaurant in broad daylight to eat?

This person always went to her shop to buy things, and he was a regular customer, so it would be impossible to ignore him.She tidied her clothes to make sure that the clothes would not be creased after she sat down, then smiled and said: "This new shop opened today, of course I want to come over to support it. I have to order some dishes today." Try it."

While smiling, she took out the handkerchief she carried with her to cover her mouth, her every move was full of charm.

She beckoned to Jiang Yu, and told Jiang Yu the names of a few dishes.Then he picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a bowl of water, holding the bowl and drinking it.

After drinking, she put down the bowl again. She had a pair of phoenix eyes, with the end of her eyes slightly raised, like a fairy that can suck people's souls.There were a lot of diners today, and the room was full of people. She was not in a hurry, and waited slowly while playing with her long nails.

Aunt Li was born and raised in Shifeng Town, so she naturally knew He Manniang.The last time Jiang Yu took her to He Manniang's shop to buy clothes, she thought that Jiang Yu would not have any interaction with He Manniang in the future, but she didn't expect that person to come to support Jiang Yu today.

Aunt Li doesn't like He Manniang very much, because of her viciousness, she always feels that this woman is not simple.It doesn't matter if it's a few words of pleasantries in daily life, but it's really hard to talk about getting along with each other in depth.

After all, Jiang Yu has only come to this town not long ago, she looked at Jiang Yu who was busy cooking in front of the stove, and wanted to remind her: "Yu girl, that He Manniang..."

Aunt Li stopped in the middle of her words, in fact, she didn't know how to speak.To put it seriously, she seems to be the person who loves to talk and stick to the truth; to put it not seriously, she is worried that the relationship between Jiang Yu and He Manniang will get too close, in case something happens.

"...Anyway, that He Manniang is not ordinary, you'd better be careful." She thought for a long time before she came up with such a sentence.

"I see, auntie."

The dishes ordered by He Manniang were finally brought to the table, she looked at the plate in front of her, feeling a little sad.It's not that this dish is not well cooked, it's just that she hurt herself when she saw it.She picked it up with chopsticks, but her hands shook, and the dish fell on the table.

She finally couldn't hold it back anymore, put down her chopsticks and sobbed softly, and then wiped her tears gently with a handkerchief: "This liver tip is obviously your favorite, why did you go so early, you damn ghost."

The beauty wept, and everyone looked at her.You were talking and laughing just now, why are you crying now?

She is missing her dead husband.

In fact, He Manniang is also a poor person. She was in her prime in her 20s, but by fate she became a widow.Her husband was originally a caravan, and he was still doing big business. That time he had to go out of the country to sell goods in neighboring countries.She was very worried when she heard this, and said nothing to let her husband go.While her husband was comforting her, he still quietly set foot on the road to the neighboring country early in the morning.

The scene that He Manniang least wanted to see happened. The caravan had not yet reached the neighboring country, but on the way they met bandits who intercepted the goods. In order to get the money, the bandits went on a killing spree.

On the way to go, a group of people went there in a mighty way, but only half of them were left when they came back.He Manniang stood in front of the town's memorial archway, looking at her husband's cold bones, and refused to believe that it was true. She cried until she fainted, and finally passed out from crying.

The owner of the caravan gave her a sum of money, and she buried her husband, and the rest of the money was used to open a shop.She has no children, nor is she short of money, and the shop is just to pass the time.

It has been so many years since a matchmaker came to persuade her to find another one, but she refused to say anything.Just one person, a shop, has come to this day.

Suddenly recalling the past, He Manniang lost her appetite. It was a happy event for them to open a shop, and she was crying here for fear of bringing Jiang Yu bad luck.She wiped away her tears, gave the dishes to other diners in the store, and went back lonely.

……

"Snapped."

In the inn here, seeing that Lu Xianzhi was not there, Jiang Xian threw the chopsticks out violently. The chopsticks hit the closed door, bounced back, and finally fell to the ground.

"What are these, how can I say anything!" Jiang Xian crossed her arms and lost her temper.In this remote and remote place, not only is the environment bad, but wind and sand can blow at any time, and there is not even a single decent inn.

What kind of food is this serving her? It doesn't look good looking at the dim color, let alone the taste.Jiang Xian kept frowning in distaste. In the Shangshu Mansion, even the lowest servants would not know how to eat this food.It's a good thing for her, instead of staying comfortably in the mansion, she came here to suffer this crime.

She really regretted that she listened to her mother's advice and went to make a fuss in front of her father, and her father was really serious, so he agreed to let her come to Jiang Yu.

She has nothing to do with Jiang Yu's life or death. In her heart, she even hopes that Jiang Yu is dead. After all, after death, she will never miss her brother Xian.

Taoxue was taken aback by her blow, but soon recovered, she was no longer surprised by Jiang Xian who often loses her temper.She took out the handkerchief and wiped Jiang Xian's dirty hands.While wiping, she said: "Girl don't need to be angry about this, it would be bad if you get angry."

"My servant sees that the wind has stopped for the past two days, and there will be no more sand. You rested early today. Tomorrow, my servant will accompany you to the streets. Maybe you can change your mood."

Jiang Xian also wanted to go to the street, but the wind in the past two days prevented her from going out.

Seeing her girl's thoughts moved, Taoxue said again: "I heard that there is a new restaurant opened on the street today, and it's fun to name it. It seems to be a restaurant. A lot of people have gone to join in the fun, maybe the taste is good Why don't you go and see for yourself tomorrow, girl."

Only then did Jiang Xian's temper be coaxed down.
