Blessed Daughter

Chapter 288 Drunken Crab and Raw Pickled

If you still insist on giving this wine, you can only inquire about it elsewhere. If there are other channels to get it, it’s okay to say, if not, you can only give up completely.

After this inquiry, they really found out a place, that is Xu Ji Braised Meat Shop not far from Zuixianju.

There are also thyme sellers here, but just like Zuixianju, only one pot is sold here every day, and each person can only buy one pot at a time. If there are too many, the price is the same as Zuixianju. , ten taels of silver for a pot.

It's not difficult to buy it for a taste, it just takes some time, but it's a bit difficult to buy several jars to give away.

Wei Yichen was in the college, and when he heard the people around him talk about this matter, although he didn't feel the same way about giving gifts, he was also fascinated by the way of doing it.

On May 18th, Xu Fengyuan, who was at Anzhou College, received a letter from his family saying that his grandfather had fallen at home and was bedridden.

Xu Fengyuan immediately asked the college for leave to go back home. Because the college stipulated that students must be accompanied by others when they go out on non-holidays, Wei Yichen accompanied him.

Fortunately, Mrs. Xu's body is still strong. The fall broke his leg and he needs to rest in bed, but his life is not in danger.

After confirming that Mrs. Xu was fine, Wei Yichen thought of going home by the way.

After Wei Yichen and Xu Fengyuan explained, Xu Fengyuan agreed very much, because Wei Yichen's father is still recovering from his injuries and is still recovering at home. As the eldest son, Wei Yichen should visit him frequently.

So the two made an appointment to split up today, and meet at the gate of the city tomorrow morning to go back to the academy.

After returning home, Wei Yichen first visited Wei Mingting and Yun Shi, and reported to them the recent events in the academy and their academic situation.

Then he was concerned about his father's injury and the recent situation in Taizhou.

In the end, Wei Yichen endangered the situation of his siblings at home.

"How are younger sisters Ruo'er and Wanwan doing recently?"

"Both of them are very good. They go to Tianqin Garden and the prefect's mansion to attend classes every day. Your eldest sister will occasionally be invited by Mrs. Yuan to the prefect's mansion." Wei Mingting replied.

"Madam Yuan invited sister Ruoer to the house as a guest just as a guest? Or do you have other matters to discuss with sister Ruoer?" Wei Yichen asked.

"My father didn't ask in detail. If you care about Ruo'er, you can ask yourself. She just happened to be at home today because her husband was on leave." Wei Mingting said.

This was a reminder, Wei Mingting knew that because of the slap last time, the relationship between the brother and sister became very stiff.

"I see."

Wei Yichen also had this intention, Yu Sheng left in a hurry after the tea house last time, he only had time to send his entourage to deliver the old mountain ginseng to Sister Ruoer's house, but he didn't have time to say anything.

Wei Yichen came to the door of Tingsongyuan, and just approached the door when he heard the sound of laughter from inside.

"Miss, the crab is hanging on your sleeve! Hahaha..."

"Smelly plum, you're still laughing, grab it quickly."

"Miss, don't move, I can't catch it if you move."

"Hurry up, I don't want to be pinched by it, this pliers can pinch me a piece of meat!"

"Okay, okay, put it back in the bamboo basket, Miss, how do you want it to die? I will avenge you!"

"Half of these crabs are used to make drunk crabs with wine, and the other half are made to be marinated raw. Then we will see which one tastes better! As for the one that was hung on my body, it was fried with green onion and ginger for a while, and it suffered from the fire. !"

"Okay! No problem! I'll get the wine here."

"..."

Wei Ruo is still very busy these days, so he didn't go to Tianqin Garden to report for several days. Fortunately, Mrs. Yuan and Mr. Wang Caiwei helped her cover up, so even if she didn't go to class, she didn't have to worry about being discovered by her family.

Today was a rare free time, so I worked with Xiumei in the yard to deal with the fresh seafood given to her by the folks in Shitou Village, which were caught in the sea after the Japanese pirates subsided in recent days.

Although it is not a good season to eat crabs, no one can predict when the Japanese pirates will come to commit crimes, so they can be eaten as they are.

In a while, Wei Ruo plans to study with Xiumei to make some taro products.

It just so happened that a lot of taro has been produced in the space in the past few days. In addition to saving seeds, Wei Ruo also used some of it to make some taro for tasting.

After Wei Yichen stood at the gate of the courtyard for a while, he finally decided to knock on the door.

After a while, Wei Ruo came over and opened the door.

Seeing Wei Yichen, Wei Ruo was expressionless: "Is there something wrong?"

"It's nothing important. I'm going home today. I'll come to see you... Are you... all right?"

"everything is fine."

"That's good." Wei Yichen said.

After speaking, the two were silent for a while, looking at each other speechlessly.

At this moment, Xiumei came back with the wine, holding a basin filled with crabs in one hand, and pouring water into the basin with the flagon in the other.

A maid with weaker hands couldn't do this move, so it had to be Xiumei, a practitioner.

Xiumei said to Wei Ruo as she walked, "Miss, is this wine enough to cover the crabs?"

Because she was so focused on the work at hand, Xiumei didn't notice Wei Yichen standing at the door.

When he got closer and found that it was Wei Yichen, he hurriedly said hello, "I have met the young master."

It's just that the thing in his hand has no place to put it for a while, and he holds it awkwardly.

Wei Yichen smelled the strong and somewhat familiar aroma of wine, and seeing that what Xiumei poured into the basin was a transparent liquid, he couldn't help but think of thyme, which has been hotly discussed these days.

If it is really thyme that needs to be ordered in advance to be sold in line recently, sister Ruoer will use it to soak crabs, wouldn't this be a bit extravagant?

Wei Yichen was puzzled, but swallowed the question on his lips, and asked instead: "Are you preparing to eat?"

"Well, I got some seafood." Wei Ruo replied.

"Is it drunk crab and raw pickle?"

"Um."

"The locals in Taizhou seem to like this method very much. They have eaten at banquets a few times before. Over the years, due to the relationship between Japanese pirates, fewer people went to sea, and everyone ate less."

"Um."

"Our family from the north is not used to eating, so we don't have these things at home. If sister Ruoer likes them, let the kitchen prepare some for you next time."

"Um."

Then the two were silent for a while.

After a long while, Wei Yichen said: "You are busy, I will go back to my room first, and I will talk to you in detail during dinner."

"En." Wei Ruo finally responded, and then closed the courtyard door.

Then Wei Ruo and Xiumei listened to the movement outside, and the footsteps gradually faded away.

After confirming that the person had gone far away, Xiumei whispered, "Miss, the Eldest Young Master doesn't suspect anything, does he?"

"Do you doubt crabs or wine? Don't worry, I have a lot of money, and I can afford even the most expensive things nowadays. If you ask me, I just say that I bought it myself. There is nothing to make him doubt."
