Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 222 Standing up the Bamboo Pole Again
Nan Guangsheng patted his chest and said, "Brother, I'm not bragging, my cousin has a copy of "Suiyuan Cookbook" left by an imperial chef who returned to his hometown during the Jiajing period, and when he opened a restaurant in his later years.

He likes to eat so much these years, so he pondered and practiced it by himself. "

Chu Xiangqian had never heard of "Suiyuan Recipe", and he didn't know that Suiyuan cuisine, Tanjia cuisine, Yunlin cuisine, Dongpo cuisine, and Confucian cuisine are collectively called official cuisine.

After listening to Nan Guangsheng's explanation, Chu Xiangqian suddenly had the idea of ​​taking Nanyi to Hong Kong Island.

Just thinking about it seriously, before going to Hong Kong Island, why not try to see if you can read the "Suiyuan Recipe" in Nanyi's hand, which is annotated by the chef and left with his half-life experience.

"Suiyuan Recipe" was first handed down by an official himself during the Qianlong period. Over the years, it has gathered the characteristic flavors of Nanjing, and also collected delicacies and snacks from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui, as well as famous wines and teas at that time.

It's not just as simple as a recipe.

Coupled with the royal chef's comment, as long as you get it and financial support, it shouldn't be difficult to train a master of Suiyuan vegetables.

Of course, while cultivating master masters, it is also necessary to learn by yourself.

After all, the master knows how to do it, but it's really not as good as I can do it myself.

In this way, if the master wants to leave, he will have more scruples in his heart.

"Tell your uncle that I have to travel a lot now, and the canteen on the other side of the street is not as good as it used to be. If he is willing, I will find someone to transfer him to a big hotel, or to the second, third, and third floors of the rolling mill. Four canteens."

When Nan Guangsheng heard that Chu Xiangqian would travel frequently on business, he immediately panicked, "Brother, you won't go to the mountains to buy game from now on?"

Chu Xiangqian shook his head, now he didn't need to go into the mountains at all, he could get enough game from Xinshou Village.

Therefore, on the surface, every time I return to the capital, I still have to go into the mountains.

By the way, using the excuse of going into the mountains, I hid in Maoer Hutong or the yard on the other side of Shasha Street, and did some favorite things with Qin Huairu and Lou Xiaoe.

"Don't worry, well, even if I'm on a business trip, I'll still come back in two or three months. This time, you can exchange all your 1880 yuan for wild boars, pheasants, and hares.

Let's make an appointment to trade outside the city. "

Only then did Nan Guangsheng feel relieved, and thought about it carefully, "Brother, why don't we make an appointment tomorrow?"

Chu Xiangqian nodded indifferently, and focused on the actual antiques. How much did they cost?

Nan Guangsheng hurriedly said, "These are collected from old relationships. According to what you said before, my grandfather collected 2% of the market price of the entrusted store.

A total of 8 yuan for 310 pieces. "

Chu Xiangqian stretched out his hand to check each piece, and the voices of +21 and +17 gold coupons kept ringing in his mind.

The 8 pieces gave me a total of 153 gold coupons, plus the previous four paintings, it was 284 points.

In exchange for money, Nan Guangsheng would have to pay 2190 yuan.

It's still that the two shrimp pictures didn't count the money, but Chu Qiangqian doesn't feel any pain at all now, let alone care about it.

After thinking about it, he said, "Game meat costs 2 yuan a catty, is there any problem?"

Nan Guangsheng hurriedly shook his head. Now that white noodles cost 1 yuan a catty, Chu Xiangqian still used the price of 2 yuan a catty two months ago to calculate, and he already took advantage of it.

2190 yuan is 1095 catties, which looks like a lot, but in fact it is only three or four wild boars.

Of course, wild boars were nothing to Chu Xiangqian, but in the eyes of Nan Guangsheng and those who were short of food, if they were all replaced with stick noodles, they would be enough to last for a year and a half.

"Tomorrow night at twelve o'clock, you take someone back to Longguan and wait, I will take the initiative to find you, do you understand?"

Nan Guangsheng nodded hurriedly, but within a few seconds he said in embarrassment, "Brother, can you divide it into three times?"

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly explained, "I'm worried that it won't be safe if my uncle and grandpa go with me."

Chu Xiangqian thought about it. This is a problem. He used to trade with his master Gong Changqing and those old relationships that the master knew. After all, he was still concerned about the prosperity of his wife's family, and they all learned martial arts.

But Nan Guangsheng's side is truly and completely in decline.

"Tomorrow at 8 o'clock in the evening, I will wait for you at the Yuhe River. You and your cousin borrow a bicycle. After meeting, I will put some bamboo baskets on the river in batches.

You and your cousin took them in batches and gave them to old relatives and old relationships.If they are encountered by night patrols, they will say that they are game for the rolling mill.

Then it's really sent to the rolling mill, understand? "

Nan Guangsheng was overjoyed, he thought to himself that he was a buyer, and nodded quickly.

After chatting for a while and talking about some details, Nan Guangsheng hurried back to discuss with his grandfather how much each family would send.

As soon as Nan Guangsheng left, Yan Fugui, who helped open the door, closed the gate of the courtyard and immediately came to the door.

Only then did Chu Xiangqian know that what Yan Laojiao was talking about was the borrowing of 100 yuan before.

It was agreed before that if Yan Jiefang and Liu Guangtian were brought into the street as non-staff personnel, the Yan family and the Liu family would not have to pay back the 200 yuan they borrowed from themselves.

Instead, it is offset by being able to eat a lunch on the street every day, and this meal must often have meat dishes.

Now that he has been away for two months, the Yan family and Liu family will naturally suffer.

As for the second time after that, I asked for another 200 yuan from Yan's family and Liu's family, which was for the two temporary workers Yan Jiefang and Liu Guangtian.

Chu Xiangqian thought for a while, "Third Master, how about I pay you and Second Master 200 yuan?"

Yan Fugui was overjoyed, and then worried that if Chu Xiangqian didn't care about it, even if his boy and Liu Guangtian were temporary workers in the street, they would not have the benefit of having a meal in the street.

Chu Xiangqian listened to Yan Fugui's explanation, thought for a while, and said, "Third Master, I'll go to the street tomorrow, and I'm sure about having lunch in Jiefang and Guangtian."

Not to mention the old Duan in the administrative office, he would definitely be willing to get some dried meat and fish from his own hands.

The director of the street, Cao Guanglin, must have misunderstood that he was transferred to another unit, and told him that it would not be difficult for Yan Jiefang and Liu Guangtian to continue working in the street cafeteria and have a lunch.

Only then did Yan Fugui feel relieved, "Then you can just pay me and Lao Liu 100. After all, in the current situation, it doesn't matter whether you eat meat or not, what matters is having a stutter."

After thinking about it, Chu Xiangqian knew that Yan Fugui was right.

"I won't give you the money, I'll go get the jerky tomorrow, you let Jiefang and Guangtian take the pheasant, hare, and 15 catties of jerky to the street.

I believe Chief Duan will understand where the jerky comes from, let Guangtian tell Lao Duan that the price will be calculated according to the price when I was there.It also gave Guangtian and Explain the confidence to stay in the street. "

Yan Fugui was in a hurry to express his thanks.

After going out, after thinking about it, Yan Laojiao went to the backyard to look for Liu Haizhong.

When the second uncle heard Chu Xiangqian's solution, he felt relieved.

As for the second uncle's desire to buy a bicycle ticket, Chu Xiangqian thought about it and refused.

Having nothing to say all night, after Chu Xiangqian woke up the next morning, he immediately went to Xinshou Village to hunt monsters, and rode a horse for another hour.

Only then did he return to reality and go out to practice boxing.

As soon as he went out, he saw several half-grown children waiting for him in the front yard.

Chu Xiangqian didn't care about them, and played a set of Hongquan routines slowly on his own.

This kind of boxing with a performance nature looks good to outsiders, but insiders know it's just exercise.

No matter how much you practice, it's just the same as playing a few sets of radio gymnastics, or the Tai Chi practiced by the park uncle.

While practicing, I saw Qin Huairu come out of the middle courtyard pretendingly, and greeted several middle-aged women to go to work.

Chu Xiangqian moved the corner of his mouth, knowing that the woman was reminding him to go to the courtyard of Mao'er Hutong earlier.

After practicing for another half an hour, I went to the inverted room and had breakfast with Ai Yuan.

Then he went back to the east wing, carried a bow and arrow on his back, and was surrounded by several neighbors when he went out with a hunting knife.

When they heard that he was going into the mountains to hunt, everyone felt envious.

Sha Zhu, who was taking Patriotic and Aimin to work, immediately pulled Chu Xiangqian and insisted on following.

If Chu Xiangqian really went to the mountains, he might agree to let him follow him as a porter.

But now he is going to have a private meeting with Qin Huairu, so how can he agree.

"Now in March and April, it is the time when Xiong Xiazi just came out of hibernation and is the hungriest. Many animals are in estrus again, and the vegetation starts to grow leaves, so the sight in the mountains is not good.

If you don’t pay attention, you will be ambushed by blind bears and wolves.” After finishing speaking, he stared at Silly Zhu and said, “You are not afraid of death, but I am afraid of responsibility. "

The third master hurriedly echoed, "Silly Zhu, Xiangqian is right, you have no hunting experience at all, taking you there is a burden."

Sha Zhu waited for the young man to be honest.

When Chu, who was riding a bicycle, walked far away, Shazhu rolled his eyes and said to Aiguo and Aimin, "Hurry up, I have to tell Director Xie about this.

In case the game your brother got back is taken away by other units. "

Aiguo and Aimin couldn't help but nodded with a smile. In their opinion, as long as the eldest brother doesn't suffer, it doesn't matter whether he sells to the rolling mill or other units.

Chu Xiangqian left Nanluoguxiang, found a place where no one was around, and put away all his bows and arrows.

Even a change of clothes, and then wandered around on a bicycle for more than half an hour, avoiding the rush-hour crowds.

Only then, under the guidance of the tit, avoided everyone and entered the courtyard of Maoer Hutong.

Putting the bamboo poles on the courtyard wall, I went into the kitchen and checked to make sure that no one had touched the abandoned stove and roof before I started to light the coal stove.

However, what was burned was not briquettes, but a few birch trees cut down from Novice Village, divided into firewood of different sizes with gathering techniques, and piled up on the corner of the kitchen wall.

Boil a pot of water, make hot tea, and steam a roast chicken and two steamed buns in the iron pot on the coal stove.

Lying on the recliner under the eaves of the main room, he took out the antiques he received from Nan Guangsheng yesterday, and began to look at them one by one.

At around 10:[-] in the morning, Titmouse recognized Qin Huairu who had just walked into the middle section of Maoerhuo, and immediately sent a warning to Chu Xiangqian.

Chu Xiangqian followed Titmouse's line of sight and saw Qin Huairu walking hurriedly, he couldn't help smiling.

Get up and put all the antiques into the warehouse of Xinshou Village.

Not long after, Qin Huairu knocked on the door and found that the door was not closed, so he hurriedly stepped into the yard, turned around and locked the door.

Seeing Chu Xiangqian lying on the recliner, looking at him with a smile, Qin Huairu's heart beat faster, and moved to the roof step by step with a pretty face, biting his lips and staring at Chu Xiangqian.

Chu Xiangqian immediately understood what she meant, got up and carried Qin Huairu on his shoulders, and walked into the back room.

Not long after, the sound of babbling and singing came from the room.

It's just that the voice is miserable and mournful for a while.After a while, there was another ping-pong-pong fight.

If it weren't for the fact that this courtyard is not too close to other courtyards, and it is next to the deserted Wenchang Temple, people might have heard of it long ago.

After more than an hour, Qin Huairu, who had practiced the basic skills twice, was so tired that her hair was drenched.

Although the body is tired, but the heart is very comfortable.

Seeing that Chu Xiangqian got up and left the back room, he hurriedly pulled himself together and followed.

The two sat under the eaves, gulping down the cold tea.

Now Chu Xiangqian doesn't think there is any problem with drinking tea. There are still several kinds of tea in the warehouse.

But for Qin Huairu, not to mention drinking tea made from whole tea leaves, even tea made from broken tea leaves is a luxury.

After drinking a pot, I suddenly felt that my mouth was filled with the aroma of tea, so I hurriedly got up and went to the kitchen, planning to make another pot with boiling water.

Then he saw the pheasant and steamed buns warming up on the coal stove, he couldn't help swallowing, and turned to Chu Xiangqian and asked, "Is this for me?"

Chu Xiangqian lay on the recliner and said without turning his head, "If I don't give you food, why should I keep it? There's so much nonsense."

Qin Huairu didn't care whether Chu Xiangqian's tone was good or not, and made another pot of tea with a smile, then took out a few bowls and chopsticks, fetched water from the well to wash them, and placed the pheasant and bowls on the teapot. on the coffee table.

He reached out and pulled a chicken leg and put it in Chu Xiangqian's mouth, then pulled a chicken wing and put it in his mouth with a smile.

Chu Xiangqian was also a little hungry, after all, he had practiced the basic skills twice with Qin Huairu just now, and while this woman was exhausted, his own consumption was actually not small.

And no matter how strong this body is, it still has to follow the rules of energy conservation.

But after all, in these two months, the meals are full of fish and meat, and there is no lack of nutrition for a long time.

Half a pheasant entered my stomach, although I was only half full, I didn't eat any more.

Seeing this, Qin Huairu couldn't help smiling, and after eating the last mouthful of steamed buns, she felt that she had never been as comfortable as she is now in the past two months.

Picking up the teacup and taking a sip of the cooled tea, while feeling satisfied, seeing Chu lying forward and shaking on the recliner, he suddenly felt that if he stayed like this for the rest of his life, he would be complete.

It's a pity that these were all extravagant hopes, so with a sigh, he simply sat on Chu Xiangqian's lap, lying on his chest, enjoying the rare peace.

Chu Xiangqian was not stupid, and when he heard Qin Huairu sigh, he roughly guessed what she was thinking.

He smiled and said, "Find a time, let your father and elder brother bring the bamboo baskets and bamboo baskets they made in the past two months into the city.

However, things can only be brought back to this yard by yourself, you know? "

Qin Huairu was overjoyed, pointed to the utility room and said, "In the past two months, I have brought more than 1 bamboo baskets and bamboo baskets here. If you hadn't given me money to order these things, my sister-in-law might have You have to go into town and ask me for money."

Chu Xiangqian thought about it, and simply gave her another 50, and ordered 300 bamboo baskets.

Qin Huairu happily collected the money, and then asked, "When will I go to work at the second-hand goods buying station?"
