Farmer’s Wife Has Magic Skills

   Fortune Restaurant.

   Shopkeeper Qian knew that Chu Qingzhi was coming to the store for dinner, so he waited at the door before noon, "Miss Chu, you are finally here."

  Chu Qingzhi showed a slight smile on her face, "Please trouble shopkeeper Qian."

   Shopkeeper Qian smiled and added politely, "Don't bother, don't bother, this is what we should do. Come, please come inside."

  Treasurer Qian personally led Chu Qingzhi and his party into the private room.

  Grandpa Ning, as the host, came first, and when he saw people coming, he stepped forward to greet them with a smile, "Brother Chu, sister-in-law Chu, sit down." This is the greeting of Grandpa Chu and Grandma Chu.

  Grandpa Chu was dressed up, in good spirits, and looked younger by several years, "Brother Ning has been waiting for a long time."

  Grandpa Ning laughed and said, "I'm old, I'm not a little brother anymore."

  Grandfather Chu laughed, "That's compared to the younger generation. Our generation is not younger brother."

  Grandpa Ning led Grandpa Chu to sit down, and then greeted everyone, "Everyone sit down, you are welcome."

   Greet each other.

   Talking and laughing, the atmosphere was warmed up at the beginning.

   Shopkeeper Qian asked at the right time, "Are you all here? Is there any food for you?"

   Ning Yuting said, "Get some snacks and drinks first, and the dishes can be served later."

   Shopkeeper Qian nodded and said, "I'll arrange for the guys to pick up the things right away."

   After a while, a few guys came with snacks and drinks.

"Half spicy jerky, half spiced jerky, red bean pie, already cut, egg tarts, spicy potato chips, rice wine, beer, bayberry wine, honey syrup, bayberry wine and honey syrup, ladies and ladies love to drink, and finally this The kind is Tan's preserved fruit, it's delicious, try it."

  Everyone looked at the snacks served by the buddy, secretly thought, and went out to eat, but it turned out that most of them ate their own food, which was also funny.

  Ning Yuting opened a bottle of beer and poured it for the men present. The two pregnant girls drank honey syrup, and the others drank bayberry wine or honey syrup.

   Eating snacks and drinking drinks, while waiting for the food to be served, everyone chatted.

  Ning Yuting asked, "Fifth Sister, I heard that you will give porridge to the poor on New Year's Eve?"

Chu Qingzhi shook her head, "I plan to give an annuity, the news has already been released, on New Year's Eve, the people of Shuiyun County and the surrounding villagers, a family can rely on the household registration and the poverty report written by Lizheng or a famous patriarch in the village. Proof to receive one tael of silver."

  It only cost five thousand taels to build the charity hall, and there are still more than one million taels of donations. Everyone in the entire Shuiyun County and surrounding villagers can give one tael, so as long as they are poor, they can be taken care of.

  Ning Yuting smiled, "I didn't expect you to send the silver taels directly, it's quite troublesome."

   If he sends something, he wants to take it over.

  Chu Qingzhi nodded, "It's really easier, and I think this can really help everyone."

  There is no shortage of food now, and the money is distributed directly to the villagers to buy what they need. There will be no corruption, and the money can really play a role.

  Everyone was chatting, and the treasurer Qian brought his staff to serve the dishes, "It's hot and delicious, please take it easy."

  Chu Xuhua laughed and said, "It would be a loss if Shopkeeper Qian had such a loud voice not to be a complimenter."

Shopkeeper Qian patted his big belly, and laughed, "I practiced it when I was serving food. I didn't have such a loud voice. Let me tell you a secret. When I was young, I actually looked like a scholar, gentle and gentle. Wen's, I didn't expect that when I got older, it would become like this."

   "Haha, totally unimaginable..."

   Shopkeeper Qian followed with a smile, "Everyone, please take your time. There are still some steamed vegetables, and they will be served later. Let's eat first."

"Thanks."

  Treasurer Qian left with his staff, and closed the door close to him.

   Adults and children sat down around the table together. After Grandpa Chu and Grandpa Ning said some auspicious words, they started to move, lively and lively.

   At the end of the meal, there is a grand finale...

  Treasurer Qian came with his staff, smiled and sang, "The Book of Songs glutinous rice, please take it easy."

   "Huh?" Chu Xuyuan called to stop shopkeeper Qian, "Why does your restaurant have glutinous rice from the Book of Songs?"

"I knew you wanted to ask." Shopkeeper Qian explained with a smile, "No one in the world knows the glutinous rice in the Book of Songs, but you Chu's Yimao doesn't sell it, so everyone created it themselves, and the chef of our restaurant is not talented, so he imitated it. , is now the finale of our restaurant."

  In fact, the glutinous rice in the Book of Songs is very easy to cook. Of course, it needs to be cooked like Chu Qingzhi, but what everyone eats is not the taste, but the reputation. So far, there is no dish in Daling that is as famous as this dish.

  Everyone smiled, and began to taste the glutinous rice of the Book of Songs, each with a "character", imitating it in a decent way, which is okay.

   After eating the glutinous rice from The Book of Songs, the reunion dinner is over.

  Tang Jinghong asked Chu Qingzhi in a low voice, "I want to take you to a place, do you have anything to do this afternoon?"

  Chu Qingzhi tilted her head curiously, "I'm going to the paper-making workshop in a while, and I'll make some arrangements, and then I'll be fine."

   Tang Jinghong said, "Then I will go with you, and after I go, I will take you to the place I told you."

"good."

Chu Qingning looked at everyone in pairs, envious but couldn't help worrying, she used to receive Zhaoyong's letter every three days, but this time it's been six days and she hasn't received it yet. There was no response to the letter she sent to Jiang Zhaoyong, which made her wonder whether Jiang Zhaoyong had encountered any danger.

  She tried to comfort herself, maybe Zhaoyong was delayed because of something, after all, he was going to carry out the emperor's secret mission.

  It's just that no matter how comforted she is, the big rock in her heart is getting heavier and heavier.

   Those who have something to do go to work, and those who have nothing to do go home.

  Grandpa Ning walked towards Grandpa Chu and put his shoulders together, "Brother Chu, go fishing, do you want to go?"

  Grandpa Chu said without thinking, "Okay, I just cut a fishing rod two days ago, and I'm going to try it. It's just right for you to go."

   "Brother Chu's fishing rod is good, why don't you help me chop one?"

"no problem."

  The two old men went back to the village together, walking quite fast, not like old people at all.

  …

  Chu's papermaking workshop.

  The business in the workshop has been on the right track a long time ago. The other three are okay, but paper towels are always in short supply, and they are urged to deliver several times almost every day.

  The noble ladies in the capital can't live without paper towels since they used them.

   In the beginning, the empress rewarded the wives and daughters of the ministers, and then they each spread in the circle, and now all the high-ranking families in the capital are using it. If anyone doesn’t, then you will be left behind.

  In addition to high-ranking families, some rich people also use it. The workshop can only produce so much every day, so it is in short supply every day.

  Chu Qingzhi plans to expand the workshop and open a paper towel workshop next to it alone to produce paper towels. It just so happens that Nie Huiyang has completed the work and has manpower.

  But this is just Chu Qingzhi's idea, even if it needs to be expanded, it will have to wait a few years.
