Chapter 16
(Please recommend tickets.!)
"Ouch!!"

Li You was squatting in a corner of the back door of the small shop, he was throwing up like crazy, just took a bite, the smell of the mutton in this water basin made Li You vomit directly, the taste was so good, no wonder this shop is a There are no guests, whoever comes to eat is an idiot.

Li You really regretted it, he shouldn't be greedy for such a small gain, and almost missed himself.

"Are you okay?" Xiao Yan stood behind Li You with some sympathy, and gently patted Li You's back with her hands.

"Why didn't you stop me? Did you do it on purpose?" Li You looked back at Xiao Yan bitterly.

Xiao Yan sighed: "I wanted to stop you, but you didn't have time to react. As soon as you heard that you could eat a large pot of mutton for five cents, your eyes were green, and I said a long time ago I told you to go, but you just won't go."

"How did I know that the water basin mutton made by your mother is so unpalatable. It smells fishy and has an indescribable strange smell. My God, even the steamed buns sold outside are better than the water basin mutton made by your mother. .”

Li You didn't hold back for a while, after complaining again and again, it's just that this side just finished complaining.

Li You suddenly heard a voice of resentment: "Mr. Li, is the water basin mutton made by my slave really so unpalatable?"

"Huh? Chunniang. Why are you here?" Li You was a little embarrassed. Chunniang was the mother of Xiao Yan and Xiao Baoer.

"It's over now. All of our family's money has been invested in this water basin mutton shop. My mother didn't know where to get a secret recipe for water basin mutton. She thought it would make a lot of money. Who would have thought that the secret formula could be understood at first glance, but would be useless once it is done.”

Xiao Bao'er looked like a little adult, walked to the back steps, sat down and sighed slightly.

"It's over!" After Xiao Bao'er finished speaking, Chun Niang's tears fell down, and she cried so sadly.

Xiao Yan also sighed here, looked at her mother a little uncomfortable and said: "I said mother, I have already told you, what secret recipe for water basin mutton did you get from that Taoist priest?" It's definitely fake, but you still don't believe it.

However, you don't have to worry, I will support you in the future.! "

It's good that Xiao Yan didn't say anything, but when she said it, Chun Niang on the other side became excited.

"What do you take to support me? You are 16 years old, and you can't even find a husband's family. Oh, it's not that you can't find it, but you have no one at all. When you were 14 years old, there was finally a son who didn't dislike you.

But who knows, you pushed people directly into the snake pit, and the harmed people will unconsciously faint when they see snakes now, Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan, you just tell my mother what to say about you ? "

Seeing that her own affairs were revealed by her own mother again, Xiao Yan showed a speechless expression: "Okay. I won't support you anymore, and let you fend for yourself. Your shop will expire next month. up.

When you are due and have no money to pay the rent, where do I see you going to sleep? "

After finishing talking, Chunniang once cried Lihua with tears in her eyes. At this time, Li You understood everything, and then she heard Li You ask: "By the way, do you know how to steam steamed buns?"

"Steamed buns.?" Xiao Baoer nodded again and again: "My mother can still steam steamed buns, brother. Do you have any good ideas?"

"Hehe...!" Li You looked at the clever Xiao Baoer with a smile and said, "I'm not very good at this water basin mutton, but I know another authentic delicacy called mutton skewers.

If you are willing to take me in. I can help you set up a mutton skewer stall. I don’t dare to say how much I earn, but I can definitely get along. "

"Really?" Chunniang laughed through tears, and then grabbed Li You's arm tenderly and said, "Mr. Li, please help us. As long as Mr. Li is willing to help us, we are willing to take Mr. Li in." .”

"Great!" Li You chuckled.

"No way!" Xiao Yan on the other side sternly refused, but Xiao Baoer looked at her sister and said with a smile: "Sister, this store is owned by my mother, so I don't have much relationship with my sister. You can take in whoever you want, and you don't need elder sister's consent."

"You?" Xiao Yan hesitated.

Here, Chunniang hastily embraced Li You's arm with a smile on her face, "That's right. It's Mr. Li, let's go home, when will we start making your mutton skewers?"

Li You giggled, he really didn't expect to find a shelter so easily today, originally Li You was worried about where he would sleep tonight, after all, he only had less than fifty coins on him.

It's all right now, and I can live with Xiao Yan. For some reason, Li You feels very safe.

"The heaven and the earth are mysterious and yellow, the universe is prehistoric, the sun and the moon are full, and the celestial constellations are arranged!"

The time is 13 o'clock in the afternoon. Chunniang's water basin mutton shop is closed. A young man is cutting mutton, a young man is skewering mutton, a girl is peeling bamboo sticks, and a mother is grinding the meat. With allspice.

The young man read the thousand-character essay, and every time he read it, the young man followed the young man with excitement.

The young man is Li You, and the young man is Xiao Baoer. At this time, the four of them are doing the preparatory work for mutton skewers, and they are doing the preliminary work, skewering mutton skewers and grinding five-spice powder.

Li You didn't expect that he could read and write casually, and Xiao Bao'er knelt in front of Li You without saying a word, and said that he wanted to worship Li You as a teacher. Li You was a little surprised. Later, Xiao Yan told Li You that Xiao Baoer was very She is eager to learn, but no one is willing to teach Xiao Baoer.

Li You asked why Xiao Baoer was not sent to school, but Chunniang and Xiao Yan didn't speak at this time.

Li You knew that there might be some unspeakable secrets. Unlike the previous Qi Wangyou, this Li You was very understanding. Since he couldn't tell, Li You didn't ask, and then began to teach Xiao Baoer Thousand Characters, that is Immediately, Xiao Bao'er was overjoyed, and quickly kowtowed three times to Li You respectfully, which meant that Li You was recognized as a teacher.

In Li You and Xiao Baoer's thousand-character essay, a group of four cut [-] catties of mutton and skewered a thousand skewers of mutton. Li You is still very smart.

His brain was very active, knowing that the water basin mutton was no good, he immediately thought of lamb kebabs. If you sell water basin mutton, there must be mutton. Li You doesn't know any water basin mutton, but Li You can kebabs.

A string of mutton skewers, sandwiched in the fluffy white steamed buns, one bite, it is so refreshing.

At this time, Datang already has cumin, and the price is not very high. If the seasoning of Datang is expensive, it is pepper noodles, because pepper noodles cannot be produced by Datang, and can only be imported from abroad.Rare things are expensive, and the cost of transportation is huge, so the pepper noodles in the Tang Dynasty were precious things, not affordable for poor people.In addition, people in the Tang Dynasty have begun to eat a lot of beef and mutton, and they need pepper noodles to suppress the fishy smell, so this humble pepper noodles are not something to take lightly.

The price of cumin is average, and Li You also prepared five-spice powder, which is to grind amomum, cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, kale, and star anise into powder. The power of war.
