Xiao Fu Lang is Born with a Good Fate

In July of last autumn, when Zhou Jinnian returned to Fucheng, Xie Ning immediately set up a shop and spent a lot of savings at once.

For the remaining silver, Xie Ning ordered a rectangular grilled fish dish, a small charcoal stove, tables, chairs, and tableware for the shop.

The Lin Yin of Zhou Jinnian also gave him to collect tomato melons and peppers, and made steamed dried eggplants and hot sauce in a hurry, and sold them on the street stalls.

The people in the city have never eaten the food made of jerky vegetarian meat, which accounts for the fresh food. Xie Ning made a small profit and made money to rush to the opening of the full fish banquet at the end of July.

It is also a two-story restaurant, with dine-in on the first floor, boxes on the second floor, and red-hot decorations. Fish lights are hung at the gate.

On the plaque, the three characters "Quan Fish Banquet" are written by Zhou Jinnian, and the shop is described in the plaque. The two chubby carps before and after the name are cute and lucky.

Every pillar in the restaurant is written with characters, which is what Xie Ning asked to encourage the people to read and write, eat the hardships of reading, and enjoy the blessings of knowledge.

I invited the shopkeepers around the restaurant to eat the grilled fish. The head of the restaurant brought the charcoal stove to the table, and went to the rectangular grill with grilled fish. There was no need for people to scream outside. The fragrance floated for several streets.

Xie Ning and Dad are busy, marinating the fish in advance to grill, and equipping them with various seasonings. The chef only needs to process them before serving them out.

There are also many rich people in Fucheng, so I came to try it out just around the taste.

"The most fragrant fish, what wine do you have?" A chubby master took a few friends to sit down and order.

"The most fragrant is the spicy grilled fish, which is strong and spicy, and the garlic grilled fish, which is salty and delicious." Xiao Er introduced.

"Then these two items are on, what wine is there?" The master was very proud.

The shopkeeper Xie Ning only served tea, and he really didn't think of the wine.

Fortunately, this little second is clever, and immediately replied: "Then I will go to the back kitchen to report to you, and I will serve you a fish banquet earlier. The wine is not in a hurry, and you can bring it after you hit it."

As soon as the old man heard that he could catch the fish earlier, he quickly let Xiao Er go and took out a few copper coins, "But, you are smart, and rewarded."

That little two thousand yuan thank you very much, and after receiving the copper, he went to the shopkeeper to find Xie, "The shopkeeper, the nobleman wants wine, we are not prepared..."

The one who was invited by Xie Ning to eat grilled fish happened to have the shopkeeper of the wine cellar, and when he hired the little second, he said, "Go to my shop and play. The sweet ones include rice wine and rice wine, spicy knives, and expensive bamboo leaves."

Xie Ning hurriedly ordered people to drink, and thanked the wine shopkeeper.

"It's your delicacy. From now on, if your house asks for wine, you will come to fight. For every one or two of wine sold, I will give you three cents to show your gratitude." The wine shopkeeper grabbed the fish banquet and talked about it. Pile of business, beautiful in my heart.

Well, this relationship is good. Xie Ning's food business can still make money for drinking. It's a good thing.

Xie Ning also knows how to be a man, and he often handed it to the shopkeepers in the surrounding shops. The shopkeepers of other shops did not hesitate to teach him a lot of the principles of doing business and opening a shop.

Each grilled fish is accompanied by lotus root slices, tofu, potato slices and bean sprouts, two hundred words on a plate. It’s more than twenty liters more expensive than other people’s roast duck, but he has a generous portion, and it’s cooked and steaming on the table, and the taste is good. Although the location is not good, the business is good.

The people in Fucheng also rested later, and there were no diners until the time was right. When the restaurant was cleaned up, it was already time.

There are not many fish in the fish pond built in the backyard of the restaurant. It seems that one trip a month is not enough. On Wednesday Feng decided immediately, "I will return to town tomorrow and discuss with my fourth brother."

"Father and Daddy, then, go back and rest. I will go home after closing the market." Xie Ning is also very tired, but he still needs to stare at the opening.

Sending father and dad out of the restaurant, Zhou Jinnian returned to help Xie Ning settle accounts, "One string is one hundred wen, starting tomorrow, the money for grilled fish and wine will be divided, and two hundred wen for grilled fish are whole money, okay. Calculate. I take a break every month to sort out your accounts, what else do you know?"

"I understand, ten strings are consistent, always thousands. You can use the money shop to replace the silver ingots. You taught me." Xie Ning nodded his head and counted the money. He is still very smart. I remember.

He lowered his head, pursed his mouth and counted the money seriously, his cheeks bulged in a round arc, Zhou Jiyoung squeezed his bulging cheeks lightly, "Smart."

Xie Ning was pinched with a small face, and looked up at Zhou Jinnian, pursing his lips.

"The shopkeeper, the back kitchen and front hall are all cleaned up. Would you like to see?"

Zhou Jinnian withdrew his hand, knowing that Ninglang had been tired for a day, he went to check up and down the stairs in response. Just take a look at the opening, find out the problem earlier and set the rules earlier.

After he finished the inspection, he said a few questions, then scattered the runners and went back to the backyard to rest.

Before returning to the cabinet, Xie Ning had already counted the money and was waiting for him with the big money bag.

The husband and wife lighted the lantern and returned home. By the light of the moon, Zhou Jinnian handed the lantern to Little Fulang, and stopped in front of Ning Lang two steps forward and said, "Come up."

Xie Ning pursed his mouth and smiled, and got used to being pampered, so he lay on his stomach without any pressure, lighting up the lantern with one hand facing forward.

"Tomorrow, I will go to a nursing home. My eldest brother and I have entered the school. No one will protect you. I don't worry."

"Well, I will close the market at night and come back with Dad and them." Xie Ning is also very sensible, avoiding suspicion that he knows.

There were some pedestrians along the way, but the dark roads were hard to see, and they wouldn’t be noticed. Zhou Jinnian confessed to husband Lang: "Hey, I’m not by your side. Just tell Dad what you need. He is now Treat you like a dear, don’t be embarrassed.”

Speaking of this, Xie Ning feels that happiness is overflowing. There is no principle to pet him in Jinan, so father and father love him.

"Well! I like Shannian the most..." Fortunately, Xie Ning couldn't help but confide in his admiration.

Zhou Jinnian supports what he does, so once he has a little success, he will be stronger and more confident. He is so lucky to be able to get married with Zhou Jinnian and continue to do what he loves.

Teach him literacy and arithmetic, and he didn't restrain him by the name Fran at all. Thinking of this, he shyly said: "Even if I don't have children, I love my husband the most..."

Zhou Jinnian had a weak leg, staggered a step, gritted his teeth and hit the man on his back.

Xie Ning was busy covering his mouth with his other hand.

Zhou Jinnian felt bitter in his heart, but he didn't even open his mouth to explain. Instead of telling Ning Lang the truth, which only increased his guilt and pain, he might as well just admit the ‘no good’ disease by himself.

Thinking about it, he asked again: "Don't you like children? Don't you feel sad?"

"Not sad!" Xie Ning said affirmatively. Jinnian made him live so recklessly, he just wanted to lie on his back forever.

Zhou Jinnian smiled, a little moved, and continued to tease Fu Lang to say nice things, "Is it your favorite to open a restaurant so hard?"

"Yeah!" Xie Ning nodded, poking his chin on Zhou Jinnian's shoulder twice, "Before I got married, I especially wanted to open a restaurant, but no one can support me."

It was Zhou Jinnian who encouraged and supported him, and was able to live with a man who made him live like himself, confident and comfortable. Where would it be hard?

"Jian Nian~" Xie Ning said softly: "I like you so much."

"Huh?" Zhou Jinnian agreed first, and was immediately softened by Xiao Fulang's confession, "Huh."

Xie Ning has received love and support from him, and he has also seen from Xie Ning gradually becoming stronger and growing. This positive and upward struggle has also inspired him.

In the previous life, he was an only son, and his family was partial. Although his father and dad loved him, they had plenty of heart but lacked energy. He was under the pressure to support his family when he was an adult, and then spent his entire life fighting alone in order to give his parents a better life.

In this life, he first married Ninglang in order to repay his gratitude, and planned to enter the official academic examination, step by step to a high position, so that the family can lead a good life, without ever thinking about himself.

Unexpectedly, after the two got married, he was attracted by Ning Lang's frankness and strongness. When his father was lying in bed, Xie Ning's filial piety and kindness were also seen in his eyes. The two of them went hand in hand on the way up, which was even more true to Xie Ning. Love cannot extricate itself.

Next, it was time for him to shelter Ninglang.

...

Ten days later, Zhou Jinnian and Xie Yao entered the mansion to study. Xie Yao took a book boy, and Zhou Jinnian was alone.

Judging from the area and building of the Academy, it is obvious that the imperial court's emphasis on the cultivation of scholars can be clearly seen.

The academy is on the hillside of a mountain on the outskirts of the city. The huge college has a quiet environment and a calm mind. The white wall at the door, the black plaque and the black couplet on the white background, are like a book of poetry.

There are predecessor's poems and writings in the building, and the engraving requires no distractions, persistence, and continuous innovation.

The young students only need to pay for the meal or rice noodles, and give some meat or money to the teacher during the New Year, not bribery, but hope that the annual examination can be treated fairly.

If you can't take the exam every year, you can no longer stay in the academy to study, and you will have to take a scientific exam three years later. The purpose is to check the provincial examination.

Zhou Jinnian and Xie Yao were divided to live in courtyard A. There are eight rooms in the courtyard, each with eight people. Zhou Jinnian did not bring a book boy, so he lived with seven people, and three book boys were playing on the floor outside.

After tidying up, the four scholars got to know each other literally, and Zhou Jinnian began his school days in Fucheng.

In addition to Zhou Jinnian and Xie Yao, the other two talents are named Zhang Youwen and Li Shiyi respectively. Zhang Youwen has been in the Academy for two years and is quite familiar with the Academy.

Everyone has cleaned up the beds, and Zhang Youwen suggested: "Three classmates, let's go to Cuju."

"Okay!" Xie Yao was the first to agree to this proposal.

Schools on the left and right have not yet started, and some talented scholars who are far away from the school are still on the way.

Zhang Youwen looked at Zhou Jinnian, who nodded slightly. He looked at Li Shiyi again. The most delicate and white man in the house always held his chest with a folding fan.

Zhang Youwen didn’t look down on Li Shiyi, who was stubborn, and he was a scholar with white faces, so he didn’t wait for Li Shiyi to express his opinion, so he decided to say: "Are you all agreeing? Then let's change into corsets, and after playing Cuju, I will take you to dinner. ."

"Ah? Change...change clothes?" Li Shiyi finally said, his voice seems to be a little sharp and tender.

Zhou Jinnian's mental age is slightly longer than the others, and I can tell that something is wrong at once, and when I look at Li Shiyi, I feel something is wrong.

Liu Ye has round brows and apricot eyes, slender stature, always holding the fan against his chest, always looking at people carefully, as if he has a guilty conscience, seems to be a literati "Mulan".

Zhou Jinnian thought for a while and still said: "Why don't it be another day, come all the way to the academy, I'm a little tired, is there any brother Wen who would like to take us through the academy?"

Li Shiyi nodded frantically, "Okay, okay!"

The Cuju movement, Xie Yao often sees in his poems, as a farmland scholar who studies hard in the cold window, he really yearns for it, and can’t help but protest: “You can eat after dinner before leaving. So weak?"

"How can brother Jinnian be weak? It's you, the white-faced scholar!"

It was Li Shiyi who spoke. He moved the fan upwards and put the fan on his mouth, staring at Xie Yao dissatisfied with a pair of big eyes.

Zhou Jinnian didn't expect that the little girl would start the war, preparing to help the eldest brother-in-law.

Xie Yao reacted first, "Drink? Then you are more white-faced scholar? White is like a little girl."

"You!" Li Shiyi had a guilty conscience, blinked his eyes and felt aggrieved, "I just don't want to kick Cuju."

"..." The other people were stunned, Zhou Jinnian held back what he wanted to say for the brother-in-law.

Xie Yao didn't expect that when this little student opened his mouth... so pitiful, it was obvious that he was rude to himself as soon as he opened his mouth.

Zhang Youwen coughed, and said unnaturally: "You are a big man, can you speak well?"

"Eh? It's okay, so let's not kick the ball. Let's go for a walk and get acquainted with the school." Xie Yao's family has younger brothers and younger sisters. This Li Shiyi just acted like a baby and gave him a heart of love.

Zhou Jinnian had almost confirmed Li Shiyi's gender. Seeing his brother-in-law helped to speak, he remained silent, only secretly trying to avoid suspicion.

After that, Li Shiyi liked to follow Xie Yao's buttocks very much, thinking that this man had a good temper and was a gentleman. She has been spoiled since she was a child. She speaks a little bit brainlessly, but has no malice. Xie Yao always quarrels with her, but never gets angry.

As for Zhou Jinnian, if Zhang Youwen is there, he will leave behind to help Li Shiyi quietly, if Zhang Youwen is not there, he will also find a good luck from the beginning, leaving the brother-in-law and Li Shiyi alone.

At other times, Zhou Jinnian reads books and writes articles.

...

The profit of the whole fish banquet made Xie Ning feel confident from the bottom of his heart. A little brother in Dajing Village who had no knowledge and no craftsmanship was able to open a big restaurant in Fucheng, but not everyone could do it.

In the twelfth lunar month, the school was off, Zhou Jinnian and Xie Yao returned home, and brought Zhang Youwen and Li Shiyi to eat grilled fish.

The reason was that Li Shiyi heard that there was a whole fish banquet on Fucheng West Street and wanted to eat it all the time. He kept talking about Xie Yao, who was close to him, and Xie Yao simply suggested to eat together.

The weather is getting colder and colder, Xie Ning shrinks his hands to sort out the books.

"Ninglang? Where is it?"

Xie Ning: "Huh?" He raised his head to look at Daddy.

"Yes, be careful." Lin Jin handed over a pack of sugar-fried chestnuts.

The hot stir-fried chestnuts on the street in autumn and winter are particularly popular. Lin Jin went to the street to buy vegetables and bought a pack for Ning Lang when he saw it.

Ning Lang loves to eat these small snacks in his family. In the past, his son Jinnian loved to buy them. Now that his son is studying abroad, he has become a habit of being a dad.

"Thank you, father." Xie Ning went to hold it in her hand, her warm palms very comfortable.

Chestnuts are fresh in season. The chestnut kernels inside the shells are orange and yellow, one bite at a time, sweet and soft.

Lin Jin carried the vegetable basket and said, "I'm still eating in the store today. It's too cold. I didn't go out for a trip. I suffered."

He went to the back kitchen after talking about it, and immediately there was a helper to take over the cleaning of the dishes, and he didn't need to work hard.

"Is your shopkeeper here?"

Xie Ning looked up and saw an elderly man at the door of Quan Yuyan. The clothes he was wearing should have come from a large family.

"Yes, please from the nobleman."

Xie Ning smiled and nodded to the people. They were also very particular about business and hospitality. They were just as polite. Too humble was even more offensive, and his husband was a scholar, so his behavior would affect Zhou Jiannian.

"The shopkeeper is well, my master's surname is Li. There is a happy event at the family today. I am here to order two grilled fish. I would like to discuss with you. Can this grilled fish be sent to Li Mansion?"

Li Mansion? At that time, only bureaucrats and noble families were allowed to call themselves mansion. This housekeeper was kind and courteous, and Li Mansion should be a famous family.

Xie Ning nodded, "Of course, what would you like? When will it be delivered to the house?"

"Spicy and garlic, just before dinner, I will make you a payment first."

There are fewer people on Dongyue Street, and the whole fish banquet business is a little less. The delivery of fish to two parlors does not affect the business.

"Two fish four hundred wen, two running errands, one person five wen, a total of four hundred and ten wen." Xie Ning broke his finger as usual and used the method Zhou Jinnian taught him to count money.

After hearing this, butler Li immediately took out the money and settled the bill. Just after lunch, he confessed: "It's the Li Mansion in the southwest, and the two stone lions at the Red Gate."

"Shi Wu, Shi Liu, come here." Xie Ning called the two to come to the hall. "I will send two grilled fish to Li Mansion, Red Gate, Southwest Street, and the two stone lions at the door, remember?"

Housekeeper Li recognized the two running halls, nodded to Xie Ning, then turned to go out, and happened to meet a group of people who were entering the door.

"Little..." Butler Li recognized his own lady at a glance.

"Master, I want to eat grilled fish!"

Li Shiyi responded quickly and frowned slightly, staring at the housekeeper fiercely, somewhat cute. Immediately, Xiao Er ran to greet the guests, "How many masters... the shopkeeper?"

Xie Ning thought he was calling himself. As soon as he looked up, he saw the colder he missed the man in his husband's arms, "Jiannian! Big brother!"

Butler Li has been watching his lady go up to the second floor with a few scholars, and the lady's entourage, Koyanagi, turns his head and winks at him from time to time.

"Oh..." Steward Li shook his head and gave out the whole fish banquet. The master told me early to leave home and wait for the young lady to come home to eat the grilled fish. Who knows that the female college is not in the middle, the young lady has eaten it here.

In the private room, Xie Ning ordered a small table outside and served a grilled fish for the three little schoolboys.

Inside the screen, there are two grilled fish on a large round table in Zhangmu. Although Xie Ning wanted to be with her husband, he was inconvenient as a businessman and turned around to get out of the screen.

Zhou Jinnian grabbed Xie Ning, sitting on his right hand side, and introduced to his classmate: "This is my husband Xie Ning."

Xie Ning's eyes widened and a little unclear, so I heard Zhou Jinnian say to him: "This is Zhang Youwen, this is Li Shiyi, both of whom are classmates of my eldest brother."

Zhang Youwen is a typical scholar nowadays. He has heard Xiao Er who serve Xie Ning directly call Xie Ning's shopkeeper. He looks down on merchants, so he feels a little bit in his heart to sit at the same table with Xie shopkeeper, pretending to be drinking tea. greet.

Li Shiyi was born in a wealthy family, but his father was incorruptible and his mother was a Jiangnan embroidered girl. They were both common people and they would naturally not look down upon the inferior, so she was not allowed to treat others with a colorful eye for her education.

"Brother Jiannian! This whole fish banquet was actually served by your husband? Xie Ning?" Li Shiyi frowned and glared at Xie Yao next to him. carry?"

Xie Yao laughed loudly and deliberately teased this squeamish little classmate, "I'm afraid you won't give me money, who would expect my brother to be so honest."

Li Shiyi stamped his chopsticks and said angrily: "Brother Ning, why is your elder brother so stingy?"

It was the first time Xie Ning had dealt with a stranger. She didn't expect Li Shiyi to call his brother so generously, "My brother was joking. When he went upstairs, he quietly asked me not to take your money."

"It's pretty much the same!" Li Shiyi grinned, a little bit of her daughter's tenderness.

Xie Ning quietly squeezed Zhou Jinnian's thigh under the table. How did he feel that his husband's classmate looked like a woman?

Zhou Jinnian stretched out his chopsticks to sandwich the fish, and smiled and nodded at Xie Ning when it fell into Xie Ning's bowl.

Even his little silly fish can be seen, Brother Xie Yao, alas!

"It's delicious, why would Brother Ning grill the fish?" Li Shiyi was so accustomed to being pampered by the family that he couldn't stop eating.

"When I first came to Fucheng, Jinnian took me to eat roast duck. I loved fish again, so I grilled it and tried it. I didn't expect the fish to be tender, the edges were burnt, and the inside was still raw, so I changed it to boiled in a fit of anger."

Li Shiyi put down his chopsticks and patted his hands, "How dare you! How thick are the chicken and duck skins and how thin are the fish skins that you dare to roast?"

Xie Ning smiled and chatted with Li Shiyi, and occasionally Xie Yao interjected with Li Shiyi.

Zhou Jinnian glanced at Zhang Youwen. The latter was very noble as a scholar, but the chopsticks did not miss the fish on the table. Zhou Jinnian lowered his eyes and chuckled, and drank his teacup.

After a few people were full, Xie Ning ordered the people to withdraw from the table, served strong tea and snacks, and sat back to listen to the husband and the others chatting.

Li Shiyi: "Brother Yao, you have returned to Dajing Village. When will you come to Fucheng again?"

"In early February, I haven't seen my father for half a year, so stay at home for more time."

Li Shiyi cupped her face and sighed. She really wanted to pick elm money and see the rice and fish fields in Dajing Village.

"Fourth brother would like to go to Dajing Village?" Li Shiyi was the youngest, and his classmate was fourth.

Zhou Jinnian tentatively said: "If the fourth brother has a sibling who can promise to his eldest brother and kiss him, wouldn't he go to Dajing Village if he wanted to?"

"Cough!" Xie Yao took a sip of tea. What happened?

Li Shiyi tugged at the tablecloth, then went to see Xie Yao, her face was red, and she felt it too, and was about to slip away in a hurry, "Xiao Liu, go home!"

Xiaoliu grilled fish couldn't grab the other two book boys. At this moment, he was holding the cakes and chewing fragrant. When Li Shiyi came out the screen to open the door, he reacted and went to open the door and hurried back to Li Mansion with the young lady.

Seeing the future elder sister-in-law ran away, Zhou Jinnian didn't plan to greet the pedantic Zhang Youwen anymore, and stood up and said, "It's been a long time since I saw my father, so I will also go now."

He stood up and called the person next to him, "Ning Lang."

"Huh? Coming!"

When the husband and wife left the room, Zhang Youwen got up and said goodbye to Xie Yao, and agreed to return to the academy together in the beginning of spring.
