Prosperous Tang Soul

Chapter 405 A Gentleman Doesn't Need to Stay Far Away from the Kitchen

The hard work paid off, and Xu Rou and Zhang Yi smiled at each other, and Xu Rou and his party finally stayed in Zhangjiazhuang.

No matter how many rumors and gossips he has, the sisters are planning to marry over. Are you afraid of those dirty words? Besides, we were too excited to chat, and the curfew in Chang'an City made it impossible to go back, so we had no choice but to Back to Zhangjiazhuang to stay overnight!
With a basis for staying overnight, Xu Rou is not afraid of so many people. She followed Zhang Yi and greeted the members of the Xu family into Zhangjiazhuang.

Sure enough, girls are not allowed to stay, and the water splashed by the married daughter has not been married yet, and her arms have already been abducted. If she gets married in the future, let alone the Xu family, when the time comes Even the imperial decree didn't work as Zhang Yi said.

But thinking about it, the group still walked into Zhangjiazhuang. Their impressions of Zhangjiazhuang and Zhang Yi were still very good, as can be seen from the lives of the villagers who visited Zhangjiazhuang today. Well, the life of these villagers is really good now, even much better than those of them living in Xu's mansion.

They also don't have to worry about food and clothing, and what's more, they don't have to worry about it. If the Xu family collapses one day, then people like themselves will have nowhere to go. Much more secure.

These villagers not only have a good material life, but also have great hope for their future. Now every family can have money and food, and their children can study for free in private schools in Zhangjiazhuang. Good treatment.

In this day and age, it is quite difficult for a farmer's child to become a scholar. Let alone you, a person who only eats but does not cook, is supported by the family. It is just paper, pen, ink and inkstone, plus the Four Books and Five Classics, etc. The purchase and use of books is not even counted as the money needed by the gentleman. None of these things are money. The annual expenses of these things are simply not what the farm family can afford.

But in Zhangjiazhuang, children can study for free, all for free, and even those children can go to work after school and get a lot of money from the village.

To put it bluntly, these children who go to help after school earn more than those hired workers in Chang'an City. This is the gap!

And these are all the result of Zhang Yi, the owner of Zhangjiazhuang, spending money. If Zhang Yi is not willing to spend a lot of money, this effect will not be achieved.

But Zhang Yi's shrewdness is known to them, even the whole Chang'an, as long as they pay attention to current affairs, they all know the name Zhang Yi, such a shrewd person, just asking him to spend a lot of money to benefit the people without caring about the cost, that is nonsense up.

No one in Chang'an knows that Zhang Yi is a guy who fell into the eyes of money, from dried fish powder to the charity porridge in the locust plague, he never did anything without the word money.

In fact, in Zhang Yi's words, no matter what happens in this world, if you don't have money, it will be difficult for you to do it.

If such a person stands against them, they will naturally hate them very much, but if they stand beside them, they will be very happy.

Now, Zhang Yi is about to become the son-in-law of the Xu family, and they even wanted to secretly ask Zhang Yi about going to Zhangjiazhuang to support him in the future.

There is no way, the conditions here are too good, the food is good, the food is good, the house is good, the children have Shunian, and there is nothing to worry about. In their eyes, this kind of place is like a paradise on earth.

After Zhang Yi and Xu Rou invited everyone into Zhang's residence, they began to make dinner.

And tonight is Xu Rou's first day staying in Zhangjiazhuang, and it is also her first time eating in Zhangjiazhuang, so Zhang Yi plans to cook for them herself, so that they don't want to leave Zhangjiazhuang in the future.

Although the protagonist is Xu Rou, she will have many opportunities to eat the delicacies made by herself in the future, but it is good for those accompanying servants to leave them a good memory. It will be convenient for myself.

After making up his mind, Zhang Yi asked the cook to prepare some ingredients, fish, meat, and some spices, and then began to show off his cooking skills in the kitchen.

Zhang Yi is busy in the kitchen, Xu Rou intends to help, but Zhang Yi politely refuses.

"You are still a guest now, so I can't let you go to the kitchen." Zhang Yi chopped ginger and signaled Xu Rou to watch from the side.

In fact, he thought Xu Rou was more of a hindrance. A young lady from a prominent family can at most cook some snacks. It would be a disaster if she really wanted to let them into the kitchen, so Zhang Yi didn't intend to ask her to help. Very flatly refused.

After being rejected by Zhang Yi, Xu Rou was a little disappointed, and then leaned against the kitchen door, watching Zhang Yi busy there.

Seeing Zhang Yi doing well, Xu Rou couldn't help laughing and said, "It's said that a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, but I didn't expect that you, the majestic uncle of Jingyang County, can also cook in the kitchen, and you look so powerful." look!"

Zhang Yi didn't raise his head, but it didn't hinder his communication with Xu Rou: "I don't think it makes sense for a gentleman to stay away from the kitchen. If a person doesn't even know how to cook, he isn't too stupid." Yet?"

"Besides, the happiest thing in the world is to enjoy delicious food. If you can cook delicious food yourself, wouldn't it be a pleasure?"

While Zhang Yi was talking, he cut a piece of fish into the pot, and then poured sliced ​​ginger.

Smelling the smell of fish, Xu Rou couldn't help but praise: "Wow, it smells so good, it seems that you really have a way."

"No, if this continues, what should I do if I admire you more and more? No, you are so outstanding, I am so worried that if I am not worthy of you, I will be rejected."

At this moment, there is no one else around, only the two of them are here, so Xu Rou has no scruples to act coquettishly towards Zhang Yi. Now she is very satisfied with Zhang Yi, and with Li Er's gift of marriage, she has already regarded Zhang Yi as her my husband.

"When you have nothing to do, think about some useful things, don't just think about these things."

Women in love have too low IQ and don't listen to explanations at all, so Zhang Yi didn't intend to explain to Xu Rou at all.

Outside the kitchen, Yun'er was about to come over to give Zhang Yi a hand, but after hearing Zhang Yi and Xu Rou's words outside, she stopped in her tracks.

After thinking for a few seconds, Yun'er gritted her teeth and left here. Now that Xu Rou is here, it should be enough!
