Chapter 23 Food
It turns out that there is such a story.

That's right, in the eyes of others, no matter how you look at it, the book shop owner's daughter is more talented and capable than her village woman, and her family background is better than her.

If she hadn't used tricks, Cui Hejin would not have married her.

Even if he married her, he would be honestly unable to give her affection.

In that life, if she hadn't provoked such a good him, he would have been upright and cold.

Jiang Zhiluo sighed in her heart, feeling a little more guilty.

She automatically blocked the wood-type ability, so she didn't hear any sounds in the room.

Jiang Zhiluo continued to wrap the leek box.

Mrs. Cui didn't know what was going on in the house, so she happily helped to light the fire.

She looked at Jiang Zhiluo from time to time, thinking that this was the leek box that Zhiluo was talking about.

Even in the capital, she has never eaten or seen a leek box.

Even if I participated in the palace banquet, I didn't see the imperial chef doing it.

If everyone knew that leeks were so delicious, they would definitely make them, but there are none in the capital.

Madam Cui looked at Jiang Zhiluo, and always felt that the temperament and demeanor of this daughter-in-law did not look like a girl from the village at all.

After Jiang Zhiluo wrapped the leek box.

"Mother, the sugar in this pot needs to be boiled for a while, and it's getting late, let's fry the leek box first."

There are two pots on the left and right sides of the stove.

Originally, Li was lending them this house, so these things were there.

However, Mrs. Cui and Cui Hejin only used one pot on weekdays, and the other pot was kept for a long time.

It was also in the afternoon that Jiang Zhiluo scrambled eggs to make leek boxes, and then cleaned the other pot and scrambled eggs.

Now there is a bit of oil in the pot when I scrambled eggs in the afternoon, it is clean, and there is no need to clean the pot, just pour the oil directly, and fry the leek box on the fire.

Mrs. Cui said: "Zhiluo, I'll just light the fire, it doesn't matter if there are firewood burning in the left and right stoves."

Put a piece of wood at the mouth of the stove, it can burn for a long time, and you don’t need to watch it, so burning two pots will not delay things at all.

"it is good."

Jiang Zhiluo stirred the sugar pan with a spoon. Seeing that the other pan was hot, she poured some oil and started frying the leek box.

Liu Ting'an was talking to Cui Hejin about the teacher in the school.

"The Momo School in Huaihua Lane is short of a teacher. There are two taels of silver a month. Brother Cui, you are so knowledgeable, and you don't want to take the exam for fame. You can try it. I think you will be accepted." Choose."

"I took your previous handwriting to ask, and I told the owner of Shimo Academy. Mr. Li from Shishi Academy was amazed at your handwriting. You can try it tomorrow."

Cui Hejin didn't speak, and seemed to be thinking about something.

In fact, Liu Tingan admired Brother Cui very much, especially worshiped him as a man with a humble heart and full of talent and learning. Not only that, but his handwriting was also very good, even better than those of the great Confucians.

"There is only such a private school in the town. If you go there, you can teach some children. You won't be tired. You will often take a bath. It is also close to your house. If you want to live in the school, you can live in the school. If you want to go home at night, you can live in the school." It’s very convenient to go home and live…”

Liu Ting'an felt that with Brother Cui's academic ability, if he took the scientific examination, he would definitely be on the list, but it's a pity that Brother Cui didn't want to take the scientific examination.

At the beginning, he set up a stall in the town to sell manuscripts to help people write letters, but was framed, and it was Brother Cui who happened to stop by to help him prove his innocence.

Otherwise, his reputation will be ruined, let alone want to study for scientific examinations.

Brother Cui is his benefactor.

Moreover, after reading the handwritten book written by Brother Cui, he was even more amazed and admired even more in his heart.

Liu Ting'an thought to himself, just like brother Cui's appearance, children will find it pleasing to the eye, and they are probably willing to go to school.

At this moment, Liu Tingan smelled the aroma of food in the air.

He sniffed hard, "What, it's so fragrant, it smells delicious."

Liu Tingan felt his stomach was about to growl.

Liu Tingan didn't feel hungry at first, but the scent was so enticing, it made him feel hungry, and his mouth was about to saliva.

Cui Hejin raised her eyes slightly, tapped the table with her fingers, as if she was thinking about something.

Liu Tingan breathed hard, stood up and leaned against the door, "No, Brother Cui, is your family cooking something delicious?"

But what can be delicious in the village?

Liu Ting'an's family background is not bad, there is a lot of land left by his ancestors in his family, so that he can study for him, but even so, the family is very frugal, it is really expensive to repair pens, inks, papers and inkstones.

Even so, he had never smelled such a fragrance.

What delicious food did Brother Cui make at home?

No, brother Cui's family situation, he also knows a little bit, how can there be any good ingredients for cooking?
"I don't know!"

But he guessed that Jiang Zhiluo might be cooking.

He knows best how his mother's cooking skills are.

He can't cook either, at most he can light a fire.

When he was in the Duke's Mansion before, all he learned from a young age was reading books, practicing calligraphy, and writing essays, and then he studied both civil and martial arts to learn the six arts of a gentleman.

He never learned how to cook, so he didn't know how to cook this year after he was exiled.

Although Liu Tingan was curious, but thinking about Brother Cui's family situation, he felt that since his family was going to cook, he had better get out quickly, so as not to cause trouble for him.

"Brother Cui, remember to go to the school tomorrow. It's two taels of silver a month. I just have a vacation these two days. I'll come to you tomorrow and I'll accompany you there."

After explaining, Liu Tingan will leave.

Open the door and come to the stove, the smell is even stronger.

Liu Tingan cupped his hands to Madam Cui and said: "Old Madam, I've been bothering you a lot today, I'll go back first, and I'll visit another day."

Mrs. Cui is very happy that Cui Hejin has made friends in this place, and this person is from a scholar's family, and looks bookish. Mrs. Cui is also happy that Cui Hejin has such a friend.

"It's okay, it's okay, He Jin is fine at home, he has you as a friend, and we are all very happy to have a conversation with him."

Although Mrs. Cui also wanted to keep people for dinner, she felt that the leek box was made by Zhiluo, and she couldn't do it for her.

Liu Tingan felt that the scent in his nose was getting stronger, and he couldn't help but look to the side along the scent.

I saw Brother Cui's newly married little wife standing by the pot and busy cooking. I don't know what she is busy with, but the cooking is so delicious.

Jiang Zhiluo turned the leek box over so that both sides were cooked evenly.

Hearing the sound, she raised her head slightly, but she looked at Cui Hejin who had just walked out of the house.

He glanced at her, there seemed to be tiny streamers of light in his deep eyes, but it was fleeting.

But inadvertently, it can confuse people's hearts, as if there is something to say.

Jiang Zhiluo made some guesses in her heart, and then said to the scholar: "I just happened to make some more leek boxes. Since I am my husband's friend, let's stay and have dinner together."

Liu Ting'an didn't expect Brother Cui's wife to say such a thing.

He obviously didn't seem to have a very good attitude towards her before.

Thinking that he said something bad about her to Brother Cui in the house, he felt a little uncomfortable and awkward.
