Abandoned Wife Pastoral General Dotes on His Wife

Chapter 16 We Are Real People

"Miss Lin, you're finally here. I've been waiting here for more than half a quarter of an hour." The young man from Xiangmanlou rushed to Lin Xi and the others, wiped his sweat and looked at Lin Xi with a smile on his face.

"Huh?" Lin Xi frowned: "What happened?"

"Nothing happened, nothing happened." Seeing that Lin Xi misunderstood, the boy waved his hands with a smile on his face: "It's because the crayfish are too hot. You left too little yesterday and too many people ate them, so they all lined up." The team is waiting. We are also forgetful, and we didn’t ask you for your address yesterday.” He glanced at the cart.Seeing several large tanks covered with grass, the big stone in my heart finally fell to the ground.

"Second brother, we are of the same generation, so don't use your honorific title, just call me Mrs. Lin." Lin Xi corrected.Obviously, a girl who is as beautiful as a flower and like a jade will call you old at home.

"Okay! Miss Lin, old man, young masters, let's go back quickly, young master." The young man said, walked to the cart, and helped push the cart together.Very knowledgeable.

"Second brother, what's your surname?" Lin Xi chatted without saying a word.

"My little one is surnamed Liu, just call me Little Brother Liu or Cheng Zi."

"Hello, Uncle Liu." The little guy greeted first.

"Hello, little boy."

Several people came to the backyard of Xiangmanlou, and they worked together to unload the cart.Zhang Qiyun walked up to Lin Xi and whispered: "Girl Xi, uncle will go to the yamen to do business first, and then go back first after the business is done. You two are busy and go shopping around." Then, he ordered a few people to take good care of the mother and child, He raised his hand and patted the green cloth clothes on his body, tidied them up, and left the yard without looking back.

"Girl Xi, I'm looking forward to you." At this time, the door from the backyard to the front kitchen opened, and shopkeeper Zhang, dressed in silk, came out with a smile on his face.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions!Lin Xi put her son on the ground, leaned over to pick up a wild rice stem, tore off the green skin wrapped around it, revealing a snow-white inside, and cut straight to the point: "Uncle Zhang, this is something we grow for ourselves. It can be stir-fried or stir-fried." Shredded pork, or stewed in oil, shrimp, and mushrooms can be fried.”

"Okay, okay, okay, as long as you bring it, we will accept it. The price is easy to negotiate. Xiao Liu, you bring a few weighing scales, and the price is [-] cents higher than the market price." Shopkeeper Zhang turned to Brother Liu who was greeting other people.

"Yes, the shopkeeper." Brother Liu took the order and happily assigned the task. "Girl, this way please!" Shopkeeper Zhang welcomed Lin Xi and Zhang Qijie to a corner of the yard.

"Miss Lin, old man Zhang, I have something urgent to do today, please help me." He put away his smiling face, and changed Lin Xi to Miss Lin, his tone a little dignified and serious.

"Uncle, don't be so serious, what happened?" Lin Xi held her son's little hand and said seriously.

"I have a few distinguished guests today. Uncle, I ask you to help me cook a few dishes. The reward is 200 taels. Just one meal at noon, what do you think? Of course, there will be rewards for those above if they are happy." Shopkeeper Zhang observed while talking Judging by Lin Xi's facial expression, the girl looked thin and small, obviously suffering from long-term malnutrition.If I hadn't seen the spicy crayfish she made, I wouldn't have dared to let her take over the lunch dish.

As for the 200 taels for cooking, Lin Xi nodded without hesitation, thinking happily: There is still money to sell new dishes.It would be even better if you bought shares.

"Okay, girl Xi, you can do more than a dozen." Shopkeeper Zhang thought about it, and it's better to do more. It's his blessing that the master likes it.

"Then do they have any taboos? For example, what are they allergic to?" Lin Xi thought for a while and thought it would be better to ask in advance.The trouble afterwards is that I can't explain it clearly.

"There are no scruples. Chef Chen and the kitchen staff are watching the arrangement." Shopkeeper Zhang said confidently.

I added another sentence: "For the new dishes you made today, I will buy the recipes for 30 taels per dish. In the future, you will buy me all new dishes. Do you think it is okay?"

"We are real people, let's make a deal!" Lin Xi secretly made up his mind to perform well today, and if he is lucky enough to meet his owner, then there is some hope of becoming a shareholder.I just don't know what is the relationship between Mrs. Ouyang yesterday and this Xiangmanlou?Either way, cooking well is the key.

Lin Xi hugged her son and went to his special room on the second floor with shopkeeper Zhang Qijie.Lin Xi said the name of the dish and the recipe from memory, Zhang Qijie wrote the pen, and the shopkeeper Zhang watched from the side. The two of them spoke calmly and softly, and the other wrote as gentle as jade and as fast as a dragon, and the cooperation was seamless. Just like an old couple.

No, why did he have such an idea?The little guy called him uncle.Is Mrs. Lin conceived out of wedlock?What about his husband?Shopkeeper Zhang was immersed in his own thoughts.

"Look, Uncle, here are the dishes and recipes I'm going to make today. We've written them down here. Take a look, do you need to add anything else?" Lin Xi picked up the four sheets of paper on the table, one After reading the menu one by one, put the menu on the front page and hand it to shopkeeper Zhang.

"Ah?" Shopkeeper Zhang exclaimed, regained consciousness in an instant, lowered his head and took a glance at the ten lines, and saw that they were written in sequence: tiger skin green pepper, golden shrimp ball, mapo tofu, salted edamame, dry fried beans, pork belly wrapped chicken, Spicy pork blood, yellow braised chicken, steamed pork, pork ribs stewed winter melon, steamed grass carp, cucumber, shredded cabbage? ? ?Salted duck, minced meat eggplant, stir-fried wild rice, spicy chicken wings, tea yellow shrimp, French fries.
