Emperor Xiaoyao of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 171

The boss is the boss. In Li Er's words, there are hundreds of roast ducks on Jinyu Zhuangzi, and eating is second, mainly because of the down.This roast duck is okay to eat once or twice once in a while, but it’s too greasy to eat every day!But fortunately there are father and son of the Cheng family. According to Cheng Huaimo, they can’t sleep without eating for a day. The father and son can produce four or five ducks a day. The ducks can be kept in winter, and the ducks can be roasted without worrying about plucking their hairs. Special offerings to Cheng's mansion for ten days.In fact, it is not very suitable for children to wear down jackets. The water absorption is poor, and the baby does not know when to urinate. In the end, it is he himself who suffers.But Jin Yu didn't say, he was looking forward to Xiao Chengyang's down jacket, like a "little angel", it must be fun, this baby is very bad.

There is no greenhouse effect in the Tang Dynasty in winter, and there is a small wind blowing in the morning, which can be compared to a wind knife.Now Jinyu is fully armed when commuting to and from get off work, and he does not lack gloves and scarves.It's okay to talk about the cotton jacket, after all, it's worn inside, but it's hard to explain the scarf and gloves.Every day when Jinyu commutes to and from get off work, people who don't know the truth will pay attention to Jinyu, which is very grand!It's a pity that Jinyu is not used to it.

In order to avoid the eyes of others, Jin Yu copied a cooked leather shop, and asked the shopkeeper to take it directly to the tailor shop to order gloves and hats!Yang Ying sews her own outfit stitch by stitch, so others don't have to enjoy this treatment.After Jin Yu gave away all the gloves and hats, those princes realized the benefits, and more people came to wear them when they went out. Only then did the masses gradually understand the truth and gradually spread it.Yang Ying got angry with Jin Yu because of these trivial things. In her impression, this was her husband's "secret recipe" no matter what. It was not worth it to be learned by others without seeing any benefits.

Jin Yu's clothes were particularly eye-catching. After Jin Yu got off work, he was slowly strolling along the crowd on horseback, when he heard someone calling him. The voice sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.

"Gui Tang, this way!" Jin Yu looked around on his horse, and finally found the person who made the sound on the second floor of the street restaurant, which was Li Er.Li Er was bored in the palace, and when he came out to observe the people's sentiments, he saw Jin Yu leisurely strolling on horseback, so he happened to catch him for a chat.

"Here we come!" Jin Yu replied, indicating that he would go over immediately, got off the horse, and led him towards the restaurant.There are also many people in winter, all preparing goods for the New Year's Eve after January. People are coming and going on the street, and it is not easy to cross the road.

The business of the restaurant in winter is a bit deserted, there are a few tables of diners sitting in twos and threes below, and there are not many people upstairs, they all hide away from Li Er.This buddy opens this window in the cold weather, people are afraid of the cold!
"Uncle Li is very interested." Jin Yu greeted Li Er first after going upstairs, took off his gloves and scarf, and pointed to the window and said.

"Breath the air, I'm so stuffy in the room." Li Er was wearing thick clothes. Seeing Jin Yu take off the gloves and scarf, he told Xiao Er very considerately: "Close the window." With Jin Yu here, Li Er The heart that understands the feelings of the people is missing.

"Guest officer, add two more dishes?" Xiaoer is very good at coming, seeing that someone has been added, he immediately brought another set of bowls and chopsticks.

Li Er pointed to the two cages of steamed buns on the table, and said to Jin Yu, "Come and have a meal, Guitang can order whatever he wants, and I treat you."

"The small steamed buns in the shop next door, here are two baskets." Jin Yu now occasionally eats outside, don't expect any green vegetables in the restaurant, except for bean sprouts and tofu, the rest are all meat and vegetables, at least there are some in the buns Chopped green onions or something.

"Don't order any more side dishes?" Xiaoer's face was filled with anticipation. The middle-aged uncle ordered two steamed buns. The buns were not made by himself, but from the small steamed bun shop next door. They didn't make any money at all. Thinking of another one, it still doesn't make money.

"Then take two jugs of wine." Li Er was happy to see Jin Yu. This kid has not moved much in the past few months, and he really looks forward to it. It's easier to exchange feelings with the whole wine, isn't it?

Jin Yu glanced at the small vinegar dish in front of Li Er, and said to Xiao Er, "Bring some more vinegar and two heads of garlic."

"Okay, guest officer later." Li Er smiled helplessly, it seems that these two are going to have sex with Xiaolongbao, but fortunately they also sold two jugs of wine, or they will really lose money.In terms of service attitude, it is still in the Tang Dynasty, so you don’t need to look at the face of later generations that "no foreign food is allowed, and it is forbidden to bring your own drinks".

"I haven't heard anything about Gui Tang recently, what are you trying to do?" Li Er asked with a smile.

"Preparing for lessons, attending classes, and preparing test questions is a headache." Jin Yu shook his head, because he really didn't like the job of teaching very much.

"Oh?" Li Er was stunned and asked, "Could it be that Gui Tang doesn't want to teach?"

"How can it be?" Jin Yu smiled awkwardly, this job was rewarded by Li Er, if he said he didn't want it, wouldn't that be a slap in the face in front of Li Er? "This is also the first time for this little nephew to teach arithmetic, so he crossed the river by feeling the stones, for fear that he would fail His Majesty's expectations if he made a mistake." Jin Yu cupped his hands towards the palace as he spoke.

"Guitang's words are not true, but the professor of arithmetic must belong to Guitang!" Jin Yu's expression betrayed his true thoughts, and Li Er didn't show Jin Yu any mercy.

"Hey." Jin Yu scratched his head without denying it.

"Come on, fill up." Xiao Er moved swiftly, and the wine was served quickly.Li Er reached out to grab the flagon.Jin Yu didn't dare to ask Li Er to pour wine for himself. This buddy is not good at pouring wine, and if it is spilled, it will be wasted. He quickly filled it up for Li Er, and then poured it himself.

"Dumplings are just wine, the more you drink, the more delicious you are! My nephew toasts Uncle Li!" Jin Yu raised his glass to Li Er.

"That's a good saying, the more you drink, the more delicious you are, haha." Li Er didn't care about steamed stuffed buns and dumplings, and laughed for a while, as if thinking of something happy, he was a little nervous, "I heard that Gui Tang made some cotton-padded jackets? "

The person who was still laughing just now suddenly changed the subject, and his thinking jumped faster, which made Jin Yu a little uncomfortable, so he pretended to be stupid, for fear of revealing his secrets, "Padded jacket? What does it look like?"

"That's it." Li Er rolled up his sleeves, revealing the sleeves of the padded jacket. Jin Yu is very familiar with it, how could he not be familiar with it?At first glance, it was written by Yang Ying, and the outside was neatly ironed. It seems that Li Er just put it on not long ago.No wonder I didn't see him cramp even when I opened the window in winter. It turned out that he was wearing "extreme equipment"!
"Uh``````Yes." Jin Yu saw that he was even wearing a padded jacket, and he didn't know who was so close to Li Er, and even gave Li Er this new product.Jin Yu saw that there was no need to hide it now, so he lied cheekily: "My nephew found some cotton from my father-in-law, and made a few pieces. My nephew can't do anything else, and no one can compare to this enjoyment. .”

"At Duke Yi's residence?" Li Er asked suspiciously.

"Exactly." Jin Yu straightened his expression, trying to put on a serious look, "A few days ago, my father-in-law asked my nephew, saying that if we vigorously promote the cultivation of this thing, it can solve the restriction of not being able to march and fight in winter. How does my little nephew understand this? My little nephew guesses that my father-in-law is thinking about how to tell His Majesty these days." This lying is a technical job, after a few words, Jin Yu's heartbeat became a little messy.

"Oh, this cotton is really good. I don't know what the yield per mu is?" Li Er asked the same question as Qin Qiong at the time, and suddenly asked the key point.

"I don't know." Jin Yu shook his head. He had already planned to pass the credit for this matter to Qin Qiong, so he continued to pretend to be deaf and dumb. "My nephew is not familiar with this."

"Yeah." Li Er didn't point it out, but liked Jin Yu's stupid look. What does this mean?It means that this kid is winking, if this credit is on his head again, what should I reward myself?Li Er himself felt a headache, "If it is really worth promoting, I will definitely help Duke Yi in the court." Li Er gave Jin Yu a reassurance, now Qin Qiong doesn't have to worry about anything anymore, the boss agreed, That's the case.

"The little nephew is here to thank Uncle Li for his father-in-law's help!" Jin Yu was overjoyed and respected Li Er.

The two of you just drank two drinks and didn't even say a word, Li Yifeng came in, leaned on Li Er's ear and said something, Li Er apologized: "There are some things at home that require the old man to go back, sorry Can't stop."

"It's okay, you can just leave beforehand." Jin Yu was feeling uncomfortable, afraid that Li Er would ask any more questions, and Li Er's departure was in the middle of his heart.

When Li Yifeng went out, he still did not forget to smile apologetically at Jin Yu, and cupped his hands in a very polite manner, which won Jin Yu's favor.

After Li Er left, Jin Yu didn't stay for long. He reckoned that Li Er had already gone a long way, and also went downstairs to retreat. Since the matter of Mian Mian couldn't be hidden, it's better to tell Qin Qiong first.

Jin Yu didn't go home, he went directly to Qin Qiong's house, the two baskets of steamed buns were not wasted, and they were given to beggars on the side of the road, which was considered a good deed.

It's not Qin Qiong who is on duty today, and he will go home after court, and Jin Yu is just in time.As soon as Jin Yu saw Qin Qiong, he told the whole story, but he replaced Li Er with Li Ke. After all, it was Li Ke who helped to plant the cotton seeds, so he could make do with it. I have learned that my father-in-law should make preparations early."

"Return to Tang, alas!" Qin Qiong knew that if this matter could be accomplished, it would be a great contribution, so she sighed and said, "I owe you a favor."

"The father-in-law killed the son-in-law!" Jin Yu hurriedly replied: "You are helping the son-in-law, if you let His Majesty know that it was done by the son-in-law, then the son-in-law is really 'no reward', that is the danger .”

"You!" Qin Qiong pointed to Jin Yu and said with a smile: "I know, Guitang hasn't eaten yet, right? Let's leave after eating."

Jin Yu did not refuse this suggestion, he is very hungry now.

Because of Jin Yu's advance notification, Qin Qiong reviewed the relevant data on one side of cotton, and Qin Qiong handed over the memorial the next day.It's better to take the initiative to explain it than to ask Li Erxiang, right?
After coming down to court, Li Er called Qin Qiong, and the two brothers continued their old relationship all afternoon, and there was an imperial decree: Qin Qiong was sealed up to a thousand households, Qin Huaiyu was named Ranger General, concubine Yuzhang Princess, and married at a certain date.It seems that Li Er didn't dislike Qin Huaiyu, but he just cared about Qin Qiong's family status. This time, Qin Qiong just made a great contribution and was promoted to a closed household.
