Chapter 11 Lambskin

"It's completely different to make it for yourself and to make it for others. I still like a simpler life.

And there is no secret to cooking, as long as it takes a long time, it will be imitated.

If the business is good, they will be suppressed, and if the business is bad, they can't even support themselves, which is a lot of work. "

Opening a shop is not the first choice for Ziyu, who does not have to worry about food and drink. What she wants is to enjoy life, not to be enslaved by life.

"Haha, little brother thinks so clearly!"

Steward Wang smiled and shook his head, who is not forced by life, even though he looks good outside, it turns out that he is not a man who works for the master.

The people who were still not satisfied went back to the house to rest one after another. It was rare to stay in one place to take a rest.

...

At Maoshi the next day, Ziyu, who was sweating profusely from running, brought two fragrant paper bags into the inn, and bumped into Guanshi Wang and his party who were going downstairs.

"Little brother went out so early, it's really good!"

"Morning, Brother Wang, isn't this for some exercise! It also saves you from suffering on the road."

After Ziyu avoided the group to leave, she hurried upstairs, but she didn't know that Guanshi Wang and his group who were going out were talking about her.

"The little brother who looks very gentle, unexpectedly is a hard-working kid.

Such a person would definitely have a good future if his parents were not around. "

"His family background should be good. He doesn't talk and behave like ordinary people. He should have escaped from his uncle who took over his property."

……

After breakfast, Ziyu paved the floor with a large stone slab borrowed from the inn in the room with the door open, put on a rented stove, and started cooking mutton.

Each piece of cut mutton weighs three catties. After soaking in bleeding water, skim off the blood foam in a pan under cold water, add onion, ginger, hawthorn, and white wine to a boil and simmer over low heat.

Ziyu, who was guarding in front of the stove, started sewing clumsily. She cut the lambskin she bought into suitable sizes, and sewed two pairs of leggings, one large and one small, and a lambskin apron.

"Xiao Luo, come and try!"

Although the stitches are not neat, Ziyu feels good about herself, as long as she keeps warm.

Zi Luo, who was scribbling on the ground with charcoal, ran over joyfully, opened her little black hands, and turned her face up.

"elder brother!"

"No groping, or spanking!"

"Hee hee!" The little guy who wanted to attack obediently put his hands behind his back, and Ziyu could only wait on him resignedly.

After a while, the two brothers and sisters wearing leggings and aprons looked the same.

With the fur facing the inside and the skin facing the outside, if the clothes were any more torn, they would be beggars on the corner of the street.

"Haha, little brother, your outfit is so funny!"

Guanshi Wang, who didn't know when he came back, appeared at the door, and was amused by the aprons on the waists of the brothers and sisters.

Ziyu looked up at the light outside, it was noon before she knew it, no wonder this person appeared at the door.

"Hehe, isn't it too cold for driving! My legs are numb from the cold after a whole day.

Ugly is a bit ugly, but it works and is airtight, very good! "

Ziyu made herself a man, except for her face, she was dressed like a shepherd.

Guanshi Wang didn't look at the apron, but he took a fancy to the brother and sister's leggings, and asked Ziyu to untie it for him to study.

"Little brother, this is not bad, don't mind my brother imitating it!"

"What's the matter with you? It's something that you can see at a glance, but it's very useful to tie a few cloth straps." Ziyu generously untied the leggings and gave it to Steward Wang.

Steward Wang tried it on his calf, but it was a little smaller, but it felt very warm.

"Borrow it, little brother, and I'll send it to you later, and I'll get someone to rush a batch out to the next town to sell.

Brother, I have nothing to thank you for. I will send two short sheepskin jackets to you brothers and sisters in a while. You must not miss those things along the way. "

"Use whatever you want!"

There are two sheepskin jackets for white, and purple jade is what you can't ask for. The worst fur in the space is rabbit leather jackets, which are not suitable for wearing.

Manager Wang, who got something new, left in a hurry, and Ziluo, who thought it was fun, was running around in the room to play, and Ziyu started to sew the sheepskin quilt again.

...

"Brother, look quickly!"

Zi Luo, who didn't know when she climbed onto the chair, pointed to the downstairs and yelled.

A group of exiles in prison uniforms moved slowly with shackles and chains on their faces.

The onlookers threw stones and saliva one after another, and even angrily smashed things in their hands.

"Kill these corrupt officials, kill them!"

"Kill them!!!"

……

The people suddenly became angry, and some even rushed forward to slap and spit thick phlegm on the exile's face.

"It's time to break up, don't beat people to death, we are not good at dealing with business!"

The escorting officials stopped at the right time, and the government servants standing aside stepped forward to separate the people.

"Brother, were father and mother killed by them?"

With tears in her eyes, Zi Luo clenched her small fists and looked at the group of people angrily.

"Yes, because we are too weak and powerless."

"Brother, Xiao Luo wants to become a general and avenge his father and mother."

"Don't think about it, General, take care of yourself first!"

Ziyu didn't have any thoughts of defending her family and the country. Since ancient times, some loyal ministers and good generals have ended well, and the fundamental thing is to live a good life.

Upon hearing the conversation between the brothers and sisters, Guanshi Wang, who had returned, felt his doubts resolved, and he felt a tinge of sympathy.

"Little brother, it's time to go downstairs for dinner!"

After eating the soup pot cooked by Ziyu himself yesterday, and taking care of each other along the way, Steward Wang decided to invite him back.

How could they expect to hear about the hidden family backgrounds of the brothers and sisters? There are so many corrupt officials in the world, how could they be able to fight against ordinary people like them.

"coming!"

Ziyu, who did not change her face, closed the fire door and simmered slowly, and did not forget to lock the door when she led Ziluo out.

...

During the meal, Guanshi Wang chatted with Ziyu about the anecdotes they had encountered, seemingly unintentionally.

"The lamb skins of Hegu City are well-known far and wide, but they are not applicable in the south. It is best to sell them in Baigu Mansion. The quality can be as high as this."

Guanshi Wang shook his hand, and Ziyu nodded with a smile and said goodbye.

"Brother Wang, thank you for your hospitality, we will go up first."

Because the inn was booked, Guanshi Wang and his party were not in a hurry to go upstairs to rest. After seeing that the brothers and sisters were gone, the loud voices in the lobby resumed.

Finger-guessing, drinking, chatting and spanking all show the true qualities of a man.

"Steward, we also prepared some mutton and haggis according to Brother Ziyu's instructions.

Not to mention the haggis, which is despised by others, is so delicious, but it is not easy to wash, and it can freeze to death. "

Bao Jiu, who is in charge of the caravan's catering full-time, has learned a few big-pot dishes from Ziyu, and thinks he has the skills of a chef, so he doesn't feel tired every time he cooks.

"Brother Ziyu is a child who knows how to eat, and is also a child with a hard life. Take care of him on the road." Steward Wang looked at the table and ordered.

"Don't worry! Little brother is a bold person, we can't be fooled." Bao Jiu patted his chest and said.
