Chapter 46: Eat staring food
Capital·Jin Mansion·Seven Bedrooms.
Talking and laughing can be heard outside the door from time to time. Inside the house, Jin Yanxi and his wife are playing tricks. Since Bai Xiuzhu became pregnant, Jin Yanxi has not been working much. She spends all day by her daughter-in-law's side. This can be regarded as the pinnacle of this era.
What a good man.
But the gorgeous appearance is always eye-catching, so the seventh room has always been the object of gossip among the servants, even the maids who serve closely. At this time, in the corner outside the door, Li Xiangxiu and Huaihua were stealing
Whisper.
Huaihua reminded: "You are too courageous. You dare to eavesdrop on the sweet talk of the Seventh Master and the Seventh Young Mistress. If you hear something embarrassing, you can just accept it. If you hear something that you shouldn't hear, wouldn't you be in trouble?"
p>
Li Xiangxiu said fearlessly: "What are you afraid of? Let me tell you, our seventh master is actually very secretive and very good at martial arts. He will definitely know when I am outside the door, so he will not talk about secrets. At most, he will talk about things like teasing.
Me."
Huaihua warned: "Then you still dare to eavesdrop. This tacit understanding between you and Master Qi will make Mistress Qi see it, and you will reap the benefits."
Li Xiangxiu said arrogantly: "If the seventh young lady can't tolerate me, I will leave. I won't go anywhere without a bowl of quiet rice."
Sophora japonica teased: "Then are you willing to let us, the Seventh Master?"
Li Xiangxiu said harshly: "It's not rare. I will never see him again in my life, and I don't want to either."
Sophora japonica accused: "You little heartless boy, Master Qi's love for you is in vain."
Li Xiangxiu said with a guilty conscience: "Sister Huaihua, what are you going to do?"
Huaihua picked up the piece of bamboo and said, "Of course I am here to discipline you for Master Qi."
Li Xiangxiu immediately realized that something was wrong, so she turned around and ran away, not forgetting to beg for mercy. Unfortunately, it was already too late.
During the pursuit of the second maid, the bamboo strips hit Li Xiangxiu's plump area several times, making a bang bang bang sound. Why was it a bang bang bang instead of a bang bang? Because it was the first month of the year, and Li Xiangxiu's calico cotton-padded jacket was too big.
It’s too thick to produce the same effect.
Finally, Li Xiangxiu jumped out like a golden squirrel, even making a grimace before going out.
Soon, a slamming sound was heard from Li Xiangxiu's door. Obviously, she would not leave the cave again tonight.
……
Jingcheng·Jixiangju.
Without further ado, Jin Yanxi drove to pick up Duan Hongye and Xu Shenyi the next day and invited them to a restaurant to have a drink and talk.
On the way, everyone smelled an indescribable smell. They followed the smell and looked out of the car window. They saw someone setting up a big pot on the side of the road, which was steaming. A group of people were happily surrounding it. Most of them were wearing shorts.
There were a few people wearing tattered gowns, but they just poked their heads and were too embarrassed to move forward, and from time to time they made bursts of cheers.
Xu Shenyi asked: "Jizong, what is this for?"
Duan Hongye was well-informed, and after taking a look, he started to show off and popularize science to everyone, but Jin Yanxi suspected that he did it on purpose, just to turn off people's appetite.
Duan Hongye explained: "This is eye-opening food. I heard the details..."
The so-called staring food is to buy the leftovers from restaurants and cook them in a big pot. The water in this pot is never changed. Since it is heated every day, it will not go bad, but the taste is not very good.
That’s it.”
Don't underestimate this. There is a thick layer of oil floating in this pot. If you give the boss a copper plate, you can fish out a chopstick. If you are lucky, you can fish out the uneaten bones. If you fish out a whole piece
If you come with meat, you will make a lot of money.
Witnessing this novel and somewhat pitiful scene made Jin Yanxi's remaining conscience a little emotional, but she couldn't directly transform into a good person and bring food and drinks to everyone.
This is not how good deeds are done. At least Jin Yanxi himself feels that it is right for him to always adhere to the path of saving the country through industry. He keeps investing in factories, making money and enjoying himself, and at the same time changing the economic structure, thereby promoting changes in income distribution.
For example, one month's salary in the opening printing and dyeing factory is equivalent to one year's salary in Liuhe Printing and Dyeing Factory. Will the quality of life of those workers improve? If you don't want to be involved, other factories also need to increase their salaries. Liuhe Printing and Dyeing Factory still wants five yuan.
It’s impossible to hire senior technicians just for money.
Jin Yanxi is neither fat nor ugly, and she doesn’t care whether other factories can afford it. She belongs to the Lin family in Shanghai, with a fortune of hundreds of millions of dollars. If she is still unwilling to increase her salary, she deserves to go bankrupt.
Jin Yanxi is so careless that she won't care whether your Lin family and Jin family are related by marriage.
Unconsciously, we arrived at Jixiangju Restaurant. The scenery here is really good, the water surface is slightly moving and the cool breeze is blowing.
This is quite interesting. I strolled in and saw a white wall inside with a couplet directly written on it: Xiaolou Chunyu Longhua Temple, Wild Water Autumn Wind Shrimp and Vegetable Pavilion.
This couplet is written very well. Nowadays, there is a trend in Imperial Capital. When writing couplets in restaurants and shops, they often hide the name of the store or the name of the shop owner.
Fortunately, this couplet is an Italian couplet and has nothing to do with Jixiangju. However, the word "small building" clearly points out the place. Longhua Temple and Xiancai Pavilion were the previous attractions in this place, but they are no longer there.
, the integration is full of wildness and fun.
Duan Hongye got out of the driveway: "Yanxi, this couplet was written by Mr. Qing."
Jin Yanxi understood as soon as he heard it. It turned out to be Qing Boyu. This person was not well-known in later generations, but at this time he was a famous figure in the literary world. He was good at writing old-style poems and occasionally wrote comments. You could tell by his name.
This old man is a Banner man, and his biggest hobby in life is drinking. After drinking too much, he scribbles and leaves some couplets in other people's shops.
Of course, if someone writes well, the shop owner is willing to let him draw on the wall.
After entering the store, the waiter knew at a glance that these gentlemen, dressed in suits and trousers, and accompanied by entourages, must be big business owners.
The waiter bent down and said, "Sir, how about you try the Su Zao Pork? I'll give you four plates of cold dishes and a bowl of clear soup. You can sit in the elegant seat by the window and enjoy the scenery while eating. It will be comfortable for you to drink and talk."
There is no need for customers to order dishes. The big customers who come here must come here for Su Zao Rou.
Su Zao Pork, also known as Su Zao Pork, was rumored in the palace that the Ministry of Internal Affairs had a special agency called Su Zao Bureau.

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there was no one fashion holy place in the world but Suzhou. Suzhou's silks, Sucheng's embroideries, Sucheng's styles, Sucheng's snacks, Sucheng's utensils, as long as they were Suzhou
The ones in the city are the most fashionable and also the most expensive!
After Zhang Dongguan, a famous chef from Sioux City, came to Beijing, he improved this dish. He used pig heart, lung, liver, tripe and fat intestine as raw materials, then added various medicinal materials and cooked it carefully. The soup is very fresh and the meat is soft and rotten.
You can fill your stomach with staple food such as roasted pork, or you can eat it slowly to go with wine.
This dish is still available in later generations, but the recipe of the medicinal ingredients has been lost.
After the three of them were seated, the waiter served four plates of side dishes. After a cup of tea, he brought over a white porcelain soup pot. There was a grate in the soup pot, and different parts of meat were stacked on top of the grate. The soup was still slurping.
, accurately soaking one-third of the meat, and a burst of aroma will hit your face as soon as you lift the lid.
After the toast, Jin Yanxi took a bite. It was really delicious, so the three of them drank for three rounds before getting back to business.
Jin Yanxi raised his glass and said: "This time the step-brothers are doing justice, so I won't say anything and just stay in the wine."
Duan Hongye said pretentiously: "Guess what my father said afterward. He praised me for doing well. As an elder brother, you should protect your brothers."
Jin Yanxi praised: "My father said the same thing, and he even allocated an investment for it."
Duan Hongye said: "Oh? I would like to hear the details."
Jin Yanxi recounted: "The Yanwu Yamen has a project, I heard the details..."
Duan Hongye made a final decision and said: "Brother, you are sending me money. I didn't say anything. The remaining 200,000 yuan will be shared equally between Dao Lin and I."
Jin Yanxi asked, "That's great. Brother Dao Lin, you are a doctor of German law. I will leave it to you to draft the contract."
Xu Shenyi said: "No problem."
Duan Hongye took out the promissory note and said: "This is the contribution of Wanfa Company. In addition to the 100,000 silver you paid before, this is the remaining 600,000 silver."
Jin Yanxi declined: "How dare you do it? This is all the result of the two brothers running back and forth."
Duan Hongye said forcefully: "We brothers have agreed in advance to make five after one, and besides, this opportunity to make money has come again."
Jin Yanxi accepted the cashier's note and said, "Okay, let's go to Tianjin and Hong Kong to discuss this matter in a few days."
Duan Hongye raised his glass and said: "Okay, let's have a drink first."
Jin Yanxi raised his glass and said: "Drink to win."
Xu Shenyi raised his glass and said: "Drink wins."

Jin Yanxi went home and brought back a lot of packaged Su Zao meat. However, Bai Xiuzhu changed her carnivore eating habits during her pregnancy and didn't want to eat it, so she had to take advantage of Xiao Lian and the maids.
In Xiao Lian's house, Tian Xiao'e was eating Su Zao meat, looking at her bulging mouth, like a hamster.
Wu Xiaolian reminded: "You are going to gain weight!"
Tian Xiao'e swallowed the meat and said, "I don't know how to do it! I practice bodybuilding every day, which is more tiring than singing."
Wu Xiaolian said speechlessly: "You are the Three-Inch Golden Lotus."
Logically speaking, Tian Xiao'e has small feet, so she can't do heavy work at all, but she is good at embroidery and is actually the most diligent among the maids in Qifang.
But it is also the most delicious. Fortunately, Xiao Lian has no bad intentions and is really good to her. She takes care of all the female relatives in the seventh room like a big sister, including Bai Xiuzhu and the eldest mistress. Xiao Lian asks An to take care of her every day.
You can still spend the pregnancy safely without your husband.
Tian Xiao'e stood up and said: "Just eating meat doesn't make you full. I made a bowl holder. Sister Xiao Lian, I'll get it for you."
Buckwheat is commonly produced in northern Shaanxi, especially in the Dingjing area. Therefore, people in northern Shaanxi continue to explore how to eat buckwheat, and buckwheat bowls are one of them. It looks crystal clear, pinkish white and slightly green, with a fine and soft texture.
, smooth, tender, fragrant and refreshing, with a unique flavor that you will never tire of eating.
This thing can be classified as a luxury snack. If you think about it, it is a steamer of buckwheat noodles, cold water, and mature vinegar. Let’s not say how much the raw materials are worth. The key is the time it takes.
In fact, all kinds of food are luxuries in the Jin family, such as pancakes and fruits. Can the young masters and ladies hold them and eat them? They have to be specially made and finally placed on a plate into small pieces for the nobles to eat with chopsticks.
In fact, Xiao Lian is not like Jin Yanxi and Bai Xiuzhu, who are carnivores who like big fish and meat, so Tian Xiao'e always makes some sweet and sour snacks for her sister Xiao Lian.
