Di Renjie's treatment is very good.
Before the sun set, officials from Honglu Temple came to Yun's house with a carriage to pick up Di Renjie for a banquet in Qujiang.
Watching the neatly dressed Di Renjie leave in a carriage, Yun Chu was actually quite envious. After all, this was the highest compliment for a scholar. The emperor didn't intend to praise Yun Chu, so he felt that he should reward himself well.
Chang'an in July is as hot as a stove, and eating at this time has become a burden for many people. Especially since there are many fat people in the Yun family, this is even more problematic.
Yun Chu couldn't enter the inner house. According to Naha, the women inside were not very well dressed. As for Zhu Li Da Fei, he would rather hide in the karez dug by Yun Chu to hibernate than see anyone.
Naha envied her brother for being able to be naked and only wear a pair of shorts. If it were two years ago, this child would still be on par with Yun Chu, but not now, knowing that it is not at all indecent for girls to dress like this.
Seeing her brother opening a clay jar, she curiously looked inside. A sour smell came out, which made Naha want to drool. "None of them are in the mood to eat today, so the two of us just have a good meal."
Naha had no resistance to any delicious food coming from her brother's mouth. Even though she was sweating profusely due to the heat, she still followed her brother closely for fear of not being able to eat. Today, it was too hot, so Yunchu didn't plan to make any complicated meals. He felt that this dry time was a good time to eat water.
The celery in the slurry has already turned khaki, take it out and chop it into pieces, add a few drops of oil to the pot, throw in the green garlic and a few peppercorns and fry them in the oil, wait until the green garlic is fried and turn black, and then fry it. Pour a basin of slurry water in and boil it.
There is no need for extra ingredients when eating the slurry water. You just need to chop the leeks, add salt and marinate for a while. After putting the boiled slurry water into a jar and soaking it in well water, Yunchu started kneading the noodles.
Under normal circumstances, Yun Chu would not eat the noodles that San Fei and the others endured in the summer, especially when it was extremely hot.
When you think about it, you will understand. In such weather, a fat man is forced to work hard to knead, knead and beat the noodles. The noodles should be salty without adding salt. However, he has very high requirements for eating the pulp and water. The noodles must be Need strength.
So, I had no choice but to offend him, the newly minted Wannian County Captain, to do it. As for Naha, she had no use except for food.
When the noodles are ready, they are smashed on the eucalyptus board with your hands a few times to remove the dry flour on them, and then thrown into the pot. At this time, the physalis water soaked in the cold well water is already cold and delicious. Take the noodles out and pour them over with cold physalis water without running water. Add some pickled leeks and you'll have a good meal.
Naha carried a big bowl to the inner house, and three women in cool clothes who said they would not eat dinner hurried out.
Yun Chu took a look, and found that except Cui who was more bold and bold, exposing most of his white and greasy neck, Yu Xiurong and Gongsun were still tightly wrapped, and there was nothing to see.
Yun Chu came to the concierge with his rice bowl, and Fei Jiu was drinking. He was living a good life, drinking fat pig head meat. "There's nothing we can do about sending you to Qinghai this time. You are the only one we can use at home, so don't complain."
Fei Jiu glanced at the white noodles in the owner's bowl, smiled, shook his head and said, "I should have gone, but Fei Shi is so stubborn, and Fei Ba is a person who only knows how to eat. If I don't go, who will?"
"You will definitely have headaches, chest tightness, shortness of breath and other problems after going there. You must remember not to do strenuous activities on the way. After arriving at Dafeichuan, wrap yourself up tightly and sleep for three to five days. If you feel there is no problem, then move around. .
Remember your business, you are just selling cattle, and the rest of the business has nothing to do with you. "
Fei Jiu whispered: "Does Mr. Lang want to build a long-term business or is it just a one-time deal?"
Yun Chu took a mouthful of noodles, thought for a moment and said, "It must be a long-term journey. You should strive to be familiar with this road. If you encounter dangers such as horse thieves and bandits on the road, you don't need the cow. The road map is fixed." Bring it back to me.
At the same time, we need to investigate whether the big river can be transported by water. Fei Jiu nodded and said, "I understand, little one." "
Yun Chu said again: "If you manage things beautifully this time and come back, I will support you in taking revenge!" Fei Jiu was stunned for a moment and said: "Young man has no revenge, so Lang Jun won't be the one to seek revenge." Are you going to kick me out?" Yun Chu coughed and said, "Yu Rang disfigured his face by swallowing charcoal for revenge. You fried your face in a frying pan just to prevent others from recognizing you. To be honest Yes, I’m not testing you. I tend to protect my shortcomings, and you have shown to be loyal over the years. If you have any requests, just ask for them quickly. After passing this village, there will be no such store."
Fei Jiu said quickly: "There is really no revenge to be avenged. I just did something shameless, so I blew my face in the oil pan. If there is any revenge, the enemy can only be myself." Yun Chuchi said After finishing the noodles, he drank up all the syrup and felt comfortable all over. He put away the big bowl and said to Fei Jiu: "Don't be stubborn with your words. Anyway, this matter is done. I will credit you." Fei Jiu stood up. He bowed and said, "Young man, I've written it down."
Seeing that Fei Jiu was finally willing to accept his kindness, Yun Chu left with satisfaction. He doesn't believe in unreasonable loyalty, but believes more in the exchange of benefits.
Yun Chu originally wanted to eat a bowl of noodles, but when he found Yu Xiurong cooking noodles there dripping with sweat, he backed down. Yu Xiurong, who had discovered Yun Chu's bad habits a long time ago, did not give in this time, and still filled Yun Chu with a large bowl of syrupy water that smelled of her sweat.
In the end, not a drop was left under Yu Xiurong’s eyes.
Yunchu also wanted to change himself. If he continued to live in such a vicious way, no one would be able to stand him.
The family atmosphere needs to be cultivated. Only by accepting each other wholeheartedly can we have a good life of raising children in the future. Seeing Yun Chu finish the meal, Yu Xiurong felt a little guilty.
"I always feel like an outsider, especially between you and Naha."
"Stop talking nonsense. If I had met you earlier, I would have two girls now instead of one."
"Is Naha's mother-in-law pretty?"
"Good-looking, but not a good girl. However, she is really nice to me. I always feel that she wants a son who can be a hero, not a daughter as cute as Naha."
"My mother didn't like me when she gave birth to me, and my grandfather was also very disappointed, so he gave me this name, hoping that I could be reincarnated as a boy."
"Oh, there is no need to reincarnate. I heard that wizards in the countries south of Annan have witchcraft to turn women into men and men into women. However, they usually turn men into women. , few women are willing to become men."
"Bullshit."
"I'm not talking nonsense."
"Okay, okay, even if you are not lying, you have never been to Annan, how do you know about other people's affairs."
Yunchu laughed and pointed at his head and said: "I often travel in my dreams. I sit on the ground and travel thirty thousand miles a day. I scan the sky and see a thousand rivers in the distance. This refers to people like me."
Yu Xiurong held Yun Chu's head and shook it a few times, then gritted his teeth and said, "I really want to get into your heart and see what's inside."
After finally waiting for the sun to set, Chang'an City became even more sultry. There was no wind in the sky, and the windmill standing at the highest point was motionless. Yu Xiurong, who was unbearably hot, went to the bathhouse under the leadership of Naha and Gongsun, hoping to get a moment of coolness by taking a hot bath.
Yun Chu lay on the recliner, biting a cattail fan, and listened to Mrs. Cui's story about her family's business.
Ding Dayou's virtuous wife died. It was said that she died of dystocia, and his new wife was a good-for-nothing good-for-nothing. There are few women from wealthy families who are as useless as Ding Dayou's wife. Apart from being beautiful and young, she has no other merits.
The good grain business was forced to pieces, and even the customers with the best quality in the world, such as the big canteen, were now unsustainable. "Why is it so unsustainable? Did you end the cooperation with her grain store?"
"Yes, that woman is short-sighted. She used to send some old grains here, so I tolerated it. Recently, she even dared to send some moldy grains, so I ordered the cooperation with the Ding family to be cut off. .
He also told the shopkeeper that if he wanted to continue doing business, he would ask General Ding to come to our house to talk. Yun Chu nodded and said: "You are right to do this. Business is business, so let's avoid mixing in some favors."
I owe Ding Dayou a favor, and I will repay it myself. There is no need to involve the canteen. It is not easy for anyone to do business. Since our canteen has a good reputation, we must maintain this good reputation. "
Mrs. Cui agreed and stopped talking. She had made a lot of determination for this matter today. Unexpectedly, Lang Jun did not scold her, but stood firmly on her side.
Not long after it got dark, Di Renjie came back. As soon as he came back, he took off his outer robe and threw off the boots that he was immediately engraving. He only wore his inner clothes and drank half a pot of herbal tea in one go, which seemed to make him feel better. "Why, the food at the Qujiang Banquet was not delicious?"
"No, it's the wrong person. What's even more ridiculous is that an old Dong Heng from your Jinshi Department actually cried bitterly at the banquet. He was grateful to His Majesty for promoting him, and even wrote no less than ten poems praising His Majesty in one breath."
Yun Chu smiled and said, "It shows that I know how to be a good person. You didn't call me a bastard on the spot, right?"
"If His Majesty is here, I will admit it. It is human nature for people to do this in order to get a good official position as soon as possible. However, His Majesty is not here, and there is only one Yuanwailang in Honglu Temple to accompany him. The examiners are drinking at the banquet. I had two glasses of wine, said a few words and left.
This guy is bursting with passionate poetry into the air, and he can't stop him. Didn't you see that guy's face is covered with snot, it's extremely disgusting. Being associated with such people is a lifelong shame for Di! "
