When you wear it, it becomes a "mother"

It rained for half a month before it finally stopped.

Tang Yue originally thought that Aunt Li's rice and his own eggs could be sold in the county right away, but he found that it was impossible. It has been raining for so many days, and the mountain roads are slippery, difficult to walk and unsafe.

So I had to wait at home for a few more days.

Before leaving, Tie Zhu also came and said that he also wanted to bring his own rice to the county town to sell, and it happened that he could still be with Tang Yue.

This time there were a lot of things. In addition to Li Tiezhu's ox cart, he also borrowed another one. Together, the two ox carts wobbled on the road pulling things.

Tang Yue spread a lot of straw in each of the two egg boxes to prevent the eggs from being shaken and broken.

When passing the intersection, Tang Yue seemed to feel that someone was staring at him, but when he turned his face away, there was no sign of anyone. Tang Yue was surprised, but he didn't pay attention, and walked away while chatting with Tie Zhu.

This Chunlan shrank her head back, and the village chief asked her to stare at Tang Yue. It had been raining for so long, and it was impossible for him to go anywhere. After waiting for another two days, Tang Yue went out. Go to the county seat.

Chunlan hurried home and cleaned up, planning to follow, not to mention that the village chief asked her to follow Tang Yue, even she herself wanted to know how this Tang Yue had a great future, and she couldn't even look down on her. Few men in the ten miles and eight villages saw her drooling in secret, she still couldn't believe it, there are really men she can't handle, and it's not really a wealthy family, how can there be a dead wife who doesn't steal it? fishy.

When Chunlan went out, she was stopped by the old woman, "Lan, there is no rice at home, why don't you come back and bring some..."

Chunlan replied impatiently, "I know, I know, I can't lift my shoulders alone, so you know how to reach out and ask me for it, you want to exhaust me..."

The old woman smiled and gave way to Chunlan, without saying anything.

Chunlan was even more irritable. If she couldn't marry a good man, she would have to work hard to support this old woman for the rest of her life. She didn't want to.

The rain stopped, and there were quite a few people entering the county. Chunlan found a man without much effort, and after a few winks, he let the man willingly take her into the city. There are not many brains that grow on the head, and those that are not tied to the waist of the trousers. This is the case with wives and children. She still doesn't believe that a person with a dead wife can be so chaste.

Tang Yue went into the city first, and asked the grain store where the rice was collected. This year's price was much higher than last year's.

After inquiring, I found out that the rice harvested in time did not suffer any loss. There are many rice that were not harvested in time further away, and they are still soaking in the fields. The rice has been rained for more than half a month. A lot of them were damaged, and the price of rice was suddenly raised.

The grain collected in this grain store is not measured by scale, but a device for measuring rice. Dou, ten dou is one stone, and one stone is 160 ren, which is much cheaper than the selling price, but there is no other way, except for Arita Landlords in the land, very few people only care about their own food after paying for food.

Therefore, the output of this mu of land is only more than 100 catties. Without Yuan Longping's super rice, the output would not be enough, Tang Yue thought to himself while paying for the grain.

In the end, the two families sold a total of more than ten shi of grain for a little more than two taels of silver, and Aunt Li's family was even less, only one tael of silver. Only then did Tang Yue truly realize that relying on farming is absolutely necessary. There is no way out.

After collecting the money from the grain sale, Tang Yue turned another alley to sell his own eggs and roosters. Somehow, he saw a restaurant opposite, and suddenly had a new memory.

If you say that there are not many eggs, if you just sell them like that, and the price of the little cock is estimated to be only one hundred yuan, if you continue to sell them like this, it will not reflect its value. Bigger ones.

Thinking about it, Tang Yue smiled and carried his own egg box to go into the restaurant.

Then he was stopped by Tie Zhu, who had an ugly expression on his face.

"You cub, you probably don't know, isn't that restaurant a place we can go?"

"Huh?" Tang Yue tilted his head, but he didn't react.

Tie Zhu was not afraid that they would be laughed at for their current appearance, so he stopped Tang Yue from explaining, "Don't you know? A meal in this restaurant costs this price."

Li Tiezhu stretched out one of his hands, showing five rough and dark fingers.

Only then did Tang Yue understand, did Tie Zhu think they were going in for dinner?Even if he doesn't understand the market, he still knows that the little money in his arms is not enough for two dishes in such a ostentatious restaurant.

What's more, does he look like such a rich and powerful person?Tang Yue laughed, "I'm not going in for dinner."

Only then did Li Tiezhu feel relieved, "Then what are you going in for?"

Tang Yue lifted the frame in his hand, "Isn't this specially for selling this?",

"You want to sell into this restaurant?" Li Tiezhu was even more surprised.

"If you want to sell it at a sky-high price, you have to go to this restaurant." Tang Yue said as he continued to lift his foot and walked over.

Li Tiezhu stood there dumbfounded, what is in the head of this Yuezi?

In the middle of the exquisite building with carved beams and painted buildings, there is a black lacquered mahogany signboard, with a few big golden characters engraved in the middle, "Yipinlou".

Tang Yue was speechless, how could he have a sense of instant sight like a restaurant in Jin X's novel when he heard it.

Although the glittering gold is unavoidably a bit vulgar, but this rich man still eats it, as if he can't show his nobility without some gold and silver, but Tang Yue feels that there are really not many famous restaurants in the past and present. It's not vulgar, this gold and silver are vulgar and vulgar, but only in this way can they really look extravagant, and at first glance it is a place where the poor stop.

So of course, Tang Yue was stopped before he entered the door.

"Hey, wait, wait, what are you doing?"

The young man who looked like a waiter in the shop stopped Tang Yue from the door as soon as he stretched out his hand. In order not to disturb others' dinner, he dragged Tang Yue out again, "I said who are you, so I just walked in?"

Don't blame the waiter's sharp eyes and poisonous mouth. They were born with piercing eyes. As long as they are not the people who should go in and out of this grade building, they will naturally be driven out if they can't get in. Tang Yue is dressed in blue coarse cloth, His skin was tanned, and he wouldn't believe it if he said he was a rich man.

Tang Yue lifted the frame in his hand with a smile, "These are the chickens and eggs raised by me, and I came to your Yipin Building to sell them."

Tang Yue accidentally uttered the word "sales" and saw that although the waiter in the shop didn't understand what he meant by "sales", he knew at least that he wanted to sell things in the first-class building, so he sent people to him without saying a word. Go far away and coax, "Let's go, let's go, there is no shortage of anything in the first-class building, let alone your eggs, since when are eggs rare in the first-class building?"

That's right, in the era when the rich people's wine and meat stink and the bones were frozen to death, the poor couldn't afford eggs, and the rich were tired of eating eggs. No one would believe that eggs could do any tricks.

Tang Yue was not annoyed, and let the waiter push a few times, but Li Tiezhu quit. Although he had never entered this first-class building, he couldn't see a boy bullying them like they were, "Speak as you speak, be good Do you still have to do it?"

Li Tiezhu, who was big and rough, stood aside, and the waiter didn't dare to do anything, but he still said unforgivingly, "Hey? What's the matter? Still want to make trouble? This building is not a place for you to make trouble."

Li Tiezhu's stubborn temper also came up, "I still have to enter, isn't it just to eat, we have money, but it's not that we can't afford it."

He was just talking fast, and regretted it when he said it. The two silvers on his body were bought by half a year's hard work. If he was to spend it just for a meal, he would not feel sorry for him to death.

Tang Yue quickly helped him out, "Look, I'm not here to make trouble, I just want to meet your cook, if he thinks my egg is not good, I'll bring it back without saying a word, if it's okay , it won’t be a loss to you if you come and go frequently in the future, right?”

The waiter in the shop squinted his eyes, and rolled his eyes a few times inside. It's not impossible to bring Tang Yue in, but everything in this first-class building has a source, and it's impossible for anyone who wants to sell things to sell them. Yes, but if this person really succeeds, he has done a great favor, can we lose his benefits in the future?

"It's fine if you make it clear earlier, but let's just say that you can only see the cook. If you want to make any other plans, the thugs of this grade building are not for nothing."

Tang Yue rolled his eyes in his heart, the past and the present are really indispensable everywhere, this slave who pretends to be powerful and takes the opportunity to lure others.

There is a back door at the back of Yipin Building. The chickens, ducks and fish that are needed on weekdays are not allowed to enter through the front door. They all go in through this back door. Tang Yue walked in with the shop waiter, and saw a group of people who were assigned various jobs. , as if returning to the time when Tang Yue was at work.

Tang Yue thought that he could see the chef who was in charge of the cooking. Who knew that the waiter in the shop could only call for a side dish after a long time of exhaustion, and it was a small side dish waiter next to the second chef, who was about to store things far away. In the room, it looks more and more shameful.

He is not very old, he probably knew the waiter from the shop, and he is no stranger to things like Tang Yue, "Tell me, what is it this time?"

The waiter in the shop smiled flatteringly, "This time, I said it was home-raised eggs and chickens. Let me see if it can be used."

Tang Yue was a little puzzled. Whether or not this dish could be used was up to the garrison staff. Isn't it only the chef who can decide?

Immediately, the two resolved his doubts, "Crack your eggs first to see."

Hearing the words, the waiter immediately went to find a porcelain bowl, smashed a small egg into it, and revealed the orange-red yellow inside, "Why is your yellow such a color?"

The garnish staff glared at him, "What do you know, eggs like this are good eggs, and eggs are good eggs, but the price is one penny each."

Tang Yue's eyes widened, "One penny?" This is a little lower than the outside price.

"What? Think it's low? It's good that this first-class building is willing to ask for your things. If you think the price is low, sell it or not. If you sell it, I'll give you the money right now, and leave quickly."

Tang Yue turned his head and understood that this first-class building is no better than the outside, as long as it is a good thing, the price is naturally higher, and many people have been thinking about the price difference. Today he left the eggs here. It wasn't sold to Yipinlou, but into the pockets of these two people, and then when Yipinlou received the vegetables, he mixed in his own and sold them together. Tang Yue wanted to laugh. The speculative thing is done very smoothly, "Forget it, I won't sell it."

"Not for sale?"

"Who's talking in there?"

The two of them stared at each other, and as soon as they raised their voices, they heard a thick and thick voice from outside, and their expressions suddenly became ugly.

A man with big arms and round waist came in, wearing a coarse cloth apron and a hat on his head. Tang Yue knew at a glance that the Lord was coming.

"What is this doing?"

The man's eyes widened and he didn't look at Tang Yue, he just stared at the waiter and the waiter. This kind of thing happened in every restaurant, and it was repeated repeatedly. If he couldn't be caught, there was nothing he could do about it, but now he caught him right away. Well, this kind of atmosphere must not be encouraged, and since it is caught, it must be severely punished.

"I've heard for a long time that you guys always do this kind of thing in private on weekdays. Now that I've caught it, you still don't go to the steward to get the money and get out."

The two of them turned pale when they heard this, and they were interrupted to say something to intercede, "If you don't want to leave, let's take care of what you swallowed before."

Now the two of them looked ashen, and they didn't dare to say a word, so they turned and left.

The man wanted to leave too, but Tang Yue stopped him with his hand.

"Chef, go slowly."

"I want your eggs from Yipinlou, but don't send them next time. There is no shortage of eggs in Yipinlou, so you don't need to send them."

Tang Yue shook his head, "Although this egg is inconspicuous, it is a good thing. If you ask me, it's not unworthy to go to the lobby. If it's cooked well, it probably can't compare to the best meat."

The man haughtily snorted, when it comes to cooking, it is not up to anyone in this building to teach him, even the young man who is so addicted to food has never been able to say a word about him. "It's just a small egg, how can it be made into a flower?"

Tang Yue answered with a smile, "I can really make flowers out of it."

To the man's ears, these words are naked, naked, and naked provocations. Except for the young master's family who has a cook, who is said to be the daughter-in-law of Zhang Blacksmith's family, and who cooks well, no one can talk to him Cooking, but he doesn't have to argue with someone who doesn't know anything.

Seeing that he wanted to leave again, Tang Yue provocatively said, "Is the chef afraid to look at other people's cooking skills?"

The man really laughed out of anger this time. Now he has to see what kind of strange things this man can make. If he doesn't teach him well, do he think that his face can make the food delicious?

"Then I have to see what flowers you can make."

"Come on, don't blame me if you can't find your way."

As the man said, he turned and left. Tang Yue winked at Li Tiezhu, signaling him to follow.

At first, I was afraid that Tang Yue would be at a disadvantage. Now that I heard that the two of them were going to compare cooking, Li Tiezhu didn't worry anymore. He didn't know anything else. When it came to cooking, even if he hadn't eaten anything from this first-class building, He also dared to say that Tang Yue did not do much worse.

It was the peak time for eating, but the chef didn't need to do ordinary dishes, so he had time to see what kind of tricks Tang Yue was playing.

Yes, in the heart of the chef, Tang Yue was just playing tricks, not to mention that he couldn't cook an egg, even if he had cooking skills, it was hard to say in his heart.

The chef suddenly brought someone into the kitchen, and many people who were not busy gathered around to watch. When they heard that they were here to cook for the chef, they all watched with an attitude of watching the show.

It is already hot in the dog days, and it will be even hotter when there are more people around. The chef drove them away unhappily, "Why should I go and see what to see."

Here Tang Yue has washed his hands and is ready to start.

What Tang Yue was thinking about was actually a very famous western food appetizer, deviled eggs.

But that is something that will only be available thousands of years later. In this era when there is no vinegar, Tang Yue thought about it, and the chance of making it taste like western food is zero.

But cooking, isn’t it all invented by people?Since you can't make western-style deviled eggs, let's make Chinese-style deviled eggs. Anyway, these people have never seen it before, and they are not afraid of anyone who will tell them that this thing is not authentic at all.

"egg."

Tang Yue found a porcelain bowl, and stretched out his hand to the side as a matter of course, just like reaching out to the little brother who served the dishes in Yueyang Tower. The chef stood aside, with his hands behind his back, and let Tang Yue's words go Naturally, he handed over the egg, only to find out that he was ordered...

No matter what the chef over there was thinking, Tang Yue had already lit up the fire and started steaming eggs.

The ordinary method of steaming eggs does not have any tricks, and it is not even broken up. It is just steamed in the whole after washing.

Some people have already started to sneer, "What? Are you planning to steam it and forget it?"

Tang Yue didn't talk to them, and didn't have time to talk to them. While steaming the eggs, he cut the potatoes into pieces and steamed them into the pot together with the eggs.

The chef glanced at the people next to him, and everyone calmed down, to see what Tang Yue was going to do, to turn an egg into a flower.

Tang Yue actually got a lot easier, even if he was so far behind after thousands of years, but this kind of kitchen gave Tang Yue a familiar feeling after all. Salt, sugar, starch, that is, sweet potato flour were all placed in several There was still a lot of sauce in the exquisite porcelain bowl, Tang Yue's eyes lit up, maybe there might be seasonings he couldn't find here.

I took out a pair of chopsticks and dipped them into the juices of different colors and put them in my mouth. The red sauce is the sauce that Tang Yue called, which is soy sauce, but the taste is richer and more delicious than the one Tang Yue bought. It should be Yipinlou intends to buy top grade, the sticky brown paste can be known to be sesame paste even if you taste it, Tang Yue visited the county a few times but did not see any selling sesame or sesame paste, could it be that this is a seasoning specially made for Yipinlou? ?Then Tang Yue discovered that the Chinese prickly ash he had finally found was also available here, but there was no chili pepper. It seemed that although these things were not on the dining table of the peasants, these rich children had already begun to taste them.

Seeing Tang Yue squinting and tasting the sauces one by one, the man began to pay attention to this outstanding young man. If you want to talk about these things in the first-class building, ordinary people will never see them, and some even The owner bought it from other places at a high price, but this young man seems to recognize and taste it at such a young age.

"The things are really complete, so the answer is much simpler."

Tang Yue put down his chopsticks and heaved a sigh of relief, now at least [-]% of what he wanted to make was done.

At this moment, the eggs have been steamed, and the potatoes are cooked together. Tang Yue took out the hot eggs, soaked them in cold water for a while, then peeled off the shells, and cut the eggs in half vertically. An oval, revealing the orange yolk.

Tang Yue took another bowl, carefully took out the egg yolk with a spoon, not breaking the egg white, then took some steamed potatoes and mixed them together, added a little salt, a little sugar, and a little sauce to make it darker. Orange, and then finely pressed into a mud with a spoon.

Anyone can do such simple steps, but no one knows what he is doing. The eggs are either scrambled, boiled, or tossed over and over again, so everyone is a little surprised by what Tang Yue is doing now. .

After pressing all the egg yolks into a fine paste, Tang Yue began to look for the most important tool. To turn the egg into a flower, the success or failure depends on whether he can find a replacement tool.

Tang Yue looked around. There was no fresh-keeping bag or even a plastic bag. What can I use instead of a piping bag?Tang Yue's eyes moved to the oil paper that was wrapping things aside, and his eyes lit up.

Oily paper wraps are not used in most places, because the cost is too high, and there is no recycling at this time, so this thing is used to wrap too greasy things, such as meat, such as roast chicken.

This oil paper bag here is being used to wrap a roast chicken.

Tang Yue walked over and took the thick oil paper in his hands, "Do you have any more?"

The person who packed it didn't know, and pointed to a tall cabinet, and said inexplicably, "Yes, there are still there."

"Then you go and get another one, this one is for me, thank you~~"

......

Fold the oiled paper in half obliquely, and then fold it in half again, and the square paper becomes a funnel-shaped triangle. Tang Yue picked up the knife on one side, and cut off the sharp corner on the top with one hand.

Then put the delicate egg yolk in it.

The original egg white is now used as a support, and the bottom is flattened and placed on a white porcelain plate, arranged in the shape of a five-petal flower. Then Tang Yue squeezed the oiled paper bag containing the egg yolk into it while turning it, and when he stopped, The five egg whites are filled with orange egg yolks, and the egg yolks are squeezed into the shape of thin petals, layered on top of each other, just like a flower.

Everyone was stunned, it was just a matter of raising their hands, what happened?

Taking advantage of everyone's dazed efforts, Tang Yue took a ripe tomato, poked a small hole, squeezed it with his hand, and the red juice dripped down the tomato on the egg yolk, making the last bit Taste is the embellishment of color.

Facing this flower-like dish, everyone was dumbfounded. This really turned the egg into a flower! ! !
