Those days of being the fourth master's outer room

Chapter 132

Soon after, Jing Xin was brought back home by the fourth master, and in the name of the fourth master's righteous sister, Jing Xin became the first commoner in the entire Forbidden City who became a member of the royal family because of his good fish cooking.It is well-known in Beijing, and Yaru's lotus fish is also famous. At the family banquet of Lord Kangxi, a dish of lotus fish was served.The clear soup color plus the white body of the lotus fish itself, and a bright lotus flower on the forehead.The sense of visual conflict makes people unable to take their eyes off.

People who have participated in the banquet have never forgotten the taste of lotus fish since they ate it. However, they can only eat it once a month, but everyone suffers unspeakably. The celebrity in front of him, that fish is also a fish caught by the ancestor Zhuangzi. No one in the old Beijing city would dare to fish or pay attention to it.

So the well-known bigwigs knocked on the door of Yongbeile Mansion one by one with curiosity, none of which the fourth master could and would not offend. Had to scold, couldn't be coaxed, couldn't be coaxed, if he didn't eat hard and soft, fourth master also had a headache, so the fourth master who was forced to pack his money ran to Longfu Temple to hide.

Yaru saw that the situation was not right, and it was better to block it than to be sparse, so she ran to the Palace of Compassion and Peace with meditation. After some coaxing, there was a vegetarian restaurant called Jinglianzhai in Beijing. His old man's private seal is still stamped on the four words "Quiet and Zhiyuan" in the imperial pen.Even the three words of Jinglianzhai were written by Tong Guowei, the minister of the guards, and finally why did he mention the plaque? Think about it, Queen Xiaoyiren is his daughter?That's Kangxi's natal family.

As soon as you enter the door, your attention is attracted by this wonderful scene. As soon as you enter the Jinglianzhai, there is a marble Avalokitesvara standing at the door. Below is a small pool. Several lotus fish are looming in the gap between the water lilies. swimming.Then look at the smoke in the incense burner in front of Guanyin.What came to my ears were the chanting of Buddhist scriptures and the sound of beating wooden fish.

Tong Guowei nodded in satisfaction, turned his head and said to Fourth Master, "This environment is good, you really have a heart."

"Where, these are all arranged by Luo Shi and that little girl Jing Xin. It took a lot of thought." The fourth master looked calm, as if he was not the one who praised him, and indeed he was not the one who praised him.

Fourth Master's brothers had already sat in the box upstairs.For today's opening ceremony, all the important people who stomp their feet in the city of Beijing and the ground will tremble three times are invited.Even Lord Kangxi and the Empress Dowager came out in tact.

Yaru and Jingxin hit their heads with their heels busy in the back kitchen.Meditation is okay, as long as you are responsible for killing fish, except for Kangxi and the Queen Mother, everyone else is given a fish of seven catties per table, and shared it among the eight people. It hasn't been a month yet, so the hard-working duo can only watch everyone eat, but how dare Yaru let the two big coffees wrong him like this, so a table of eighteen vegetarian chickens and ducks There are fish and meat, the appearance looks exactly the same as the real one, and even the taste is similar to real meat.This was the first time that other than Kangxi and the Queen Mother had such a vegetarian dish.

Don't think that Mr. Kangxi is so generous, and even open a restaurant like this and invite him as a backer. He has a share in this restaurant.The income of this store is excluding the cost and labor and other miscellaneous things. The profit and Kangxi get four floors, the queen mother gets three floors, Jingxin takes two floors, and Yaru only takes one floor. With Lord Kangxi in charge, no one else can get involved , I haven't seen anyone, has the prince been trained?

Don't underestimate this little Jinglianzhai.But its price is not cheap. Ten lotus fishes cost three kilograms per day, and each fish costs 3000 taels.Anyway, I eat it once a month, and I can eat it sparingly, not to mention the nourishing effect of the lotus fish, but the delicious taste is not like the taste of the world, it makes people miss it, and I don’t know the taste of meat in three months.These alone can be 36 taels per month for Lord Kangxi. If you want to ask if you don’t go to the cost, you are stupid!This Zhuangzi belongs to his old mother, so what is the cost?This is not counting those delicious vegetarian dishes.Yaru is afraid of arousing public outrage. The price of Suzhai is only in the upper middle, which is acceptable for Beijing, which is full of gods of wealth. The shopkeeper in this shop is sent by Lord Kangxi, but the back kitchen belongs to Li Wei Managed, this was the previous plan. Although Kangxi had stepped in, Li Wei still acted according to the plan.

With the addition of meditation, Yaru has four layers of members in his hands.This is an income of no less than 30 per month, which makes Fujin and the women in the backyard jealous. In addition to the income from the dowry shop, they receive that little money every month, which can't even compare to the interest paid by Luo Shi.

But no matter how jealous Fujin is, what can he do, the most is to say a few bitter words in front of Yaru.People at this level made everyone in the capital miss her, but no one dared to ask her for it. After all, it was a reward from Lord Kangxi.

Even though the price of lotus fish is so high, the supply is still in short supply. Yaru is thinking about opening a branch, but considering the recent popularity, it is better to keep a low profile and talk about it later.

Yaru was proud of the scenery, and the woman in the backyard signaled that the one who hated the most in the heart was the Niu Hulu family. The hatred between the two would never die. Now the Niu Hulu family has been holding on for seven months. Although she was still radiant because of her cultivation, Fourth Master would stay overnight in her courtyard. Since Luo Shi came back, he was fascinated by Fourth Master, and ran to her courtyard whenever he had time.Niu Hulu secretly hated it, thinking that the efficacy of that kind of fish was comparable to that of the spirit fish mentioned in the secret book. The spiritual energy in the air here is too thin, so he managed to cultivate it with the excellence of this technique. At this level, it will be difficult to improve further. For this kind of spirit fish, I am determined to win, thinking of Niu Hulu's eyes, I narrowed my eyes.

Niu Hulu's method was simple and rude. She disdained Luo's relationship, and bowed her head to beg her. When the fourth master came to visit, she sighed a few times, and there was a girl beside her to help her and fourth master. .

"Master, the master has been exhausted for a while, the weather is hot and he has lost his appetite." Jiao Mei said carefully while holding the sour plum soup in front of fourth master.

"Jiao Mei, what are you talking about? Those who don't know think your master is greedy." Niu Hulu Yingyue gave Jiao Mei a strange look.

"Master, what did you say! You have a little elder brother in your stomach now, but you are not the only one eating, you are eating alone and making up for two," Jiao Mei looked at Niu Hulu with a charming face.She spoke with satisfaction in her eyes.

Fourth Master looked at the two people who were singing the oboe in front of him, without saying a word, and lowered his head to drink the iced sour plum soup in the bowl.

Niu Hulu saw that the fourth master didn't answer, so he played tricks on Jiaomei.Jiao Mei said knowingly again, "By the way, Luo Gege is too much, isn't it a fish soon? Make a fish feast for Lao Shizi, and you will lose the master after everyone invites you. Isn't this a clear contempt for others?" ?"

"Jiao Mei, be careful, Sister Luo has resentment towards my concubine in her heart, and it's inevitable to do so. Lord, please don't let Jiao Mei gossip. This girl is becoming more and more unruly after being spoiled by my concubine." Button Hulu looked at Fourth Master shyly and explained.

Fourth master sighed from the bottom of his heart. If you want to eat fish, just say it straight. Are you tired of beating around the bush, and you want to eat other people's fish, but you have to give people eye drops.Why are you so tired?After thinking for a while, he said, "You have already said that she has resentment towards you, then you should not provoke her. Now that she is favored by the queen mother, I dare not force her. If you only want to eat, then I will take you Just go to Jinglian Nunnery for dinner. You are heavy now, so if you want to eat anything, just tell me, don’t hold back when you go.”

Fourth master put on a perfunctory look, and Niu Hulu's eyes were red when he got angry. He regarded you as a treasure when he didn't get it, but he didn't cherish you when he got it. These stinky men are like this.However, Niu Hulu didn't burst out the grievance in his heart, but just smiled embarrassingly.No more words.

The fourth master saw Niu Hulu's aggrieved appearance, and thought that after neglecting her for two months, it was almost time for her now, so he cleared his throat and said, "There is something I don't know whether I should tell you, but I still don't know." I won’t tell you if my master has someone who can speak his heart.”

When Niu Hulu heard these heartfelt words, he still had a place in Fourth Master's heart.The eye sockets are red again, pregnant women are the most sensitive, not to mention the one who loves first in love is always the one who suffers.Niu Hulu's biggest problem is that he fell in love with Si Ye, a ruthless man, relying on his sense of superiority as a time traveler.The Fourth Beverage Master had a look of bewilderment and bewilderment at this moment, and his heart ached.Touching the fourth master's hand, he said softly, "Master, you can tell my concubine any troubles you have. Although my concubine has little knowledge and can advise you, it's still good to be with you and make you feel more at ease. "

The fourth master hesitated for a moment, opened his mouth, and said slowly, "My master recently met a Taoist priest, and he still has some skills in his hands. He said that he can help you to make alchemy. If you take it, you can prolong your life and strengthen your health. Grandpa I don’t know whether to trust him or not, but he does have some abilities.”

When Niu Hulu heard this, hey, I'll go!Isn't this the cause of Yongzheng's death in history?It seems that Yongzheng died suddenly because of poisoning caused by taking elixir.Niu Hulu's face was full of doubts, did Fourth Master start taking medicine from now on?After thinking about it, Niu Hulu said tentatively, "Master, what ability does this person have? The road to becoming a fairy is long, and that person must have certain means to help you so confidently."
