Chang’an Small Restaurant

    There is a slave market in the West City, and Shen Shaoguang took A Yuan to go shopping.

    In this dynasty, the situation of animal slaves was common, but there were few hired laborers.

    Shen Shaoguang analyzed, one is because this relationship is safe and secure, slaves and maids are the private property of the master, and it is easy to dare not violate the master's will, even "slaves listen to the master and hide", in addition to conspiracy In addition to serious crimes, slaves must not sue their masters first, otherwise they will be punished; secondly, slaves are cheap, and an adult male servant with some skills is only a few taels of silver.

    Since the time of crossing, Shen Shaoguang has already lost his integrity, and in the matter of slavery, he chooses to follow the customs of the countryside.

    The slave market is very close to the horse market. After browsing the mules and horses of various colors, weak or shiny, I came to the slave market without realizing it.

      The big slave traders who circled dozens of slaves.

    I asked a few of the ones that were sold in bulk, but none of them were suitable. I also knew that if there was an excellent cook, the host would not sell them easily.

    Shen Shaoguang came to a slave merchant in his forties. Not far away, he was surrounded by twenty or thirty slaves who were selling.

    The two buyers looked like they were buying livestock, mules, and horses. Sale deed.

    Seeing Shen Shaoguang approaching, the slave merchant asked politely, "What is the lady's order?"

    "I want to buy a valet, I'd better know some cooking skills."

      .

    Although Shen Shaoguang only bought one, the slave trader did not take it lightly and said to her with a smile, "Wait, madam, wait for someone to flip through the booklet."

    "It's a coincidence, this Yu San was originally a cook." The slave trader pointed to a manservant standing at the edge.

    Shen Shaoguang looked at Yu San, about twenty-six or seven years old, tall, with a flat head and a straight face. , What does love look like.

    Well, personality!

    Shen Shaoguang approached to see, not knowing whether it was because of her demeanor towards beautiful women or her professional ethics, the slave merchant accompanied her into the slave circle.

    "Do you know how to cook?" Shen Shaoguang asked.

    Yu San lifted his eyelids to look at Shen Shaoguang, "Understood."

    "What is your favorite dish?"

    Yu San said flatly, "Sunflower soup, Huotang."

    It is estimated that out of the mentality of being a good man not to suffer immediate losses, Yu San replied: "In the early years, when the old master still had money, he also cooked some dishes such as roasted goose, roasted lamb, and carp soup. ."

    Shen Shaoguang nodded, "Why was it sold?"

    "The owner is poor and sold me for the whole fish feast at Dunyuliulou."

    Shen Shaoguang: "..." Okay, I understand a little why this guy looks like he has no love for life, and also understand why his old master is poor - he sold the cook for a meal, this is What a losing deal!

    The slave merchant felt that the cooking skills must be bad, or it was nonsense. Don't worry, there will be another round the day after tomorrow, when the little lady will come and see?"

    Shen Shaoguang smiled at the slave merchant: "No, just this. How much?"

      The price was reduced a bit, and only 2,700 yuan was required.

    Shen Shaoguang felt that the price was fair, so he thanked the slave merchant, paid the money, and went to do a mutual deed to buy and sell slaves.

    Shen Shaoguang led Ah Yuan who held his head high and Yu San who bowed his head back home.

    The West Market has everything, so I bought some bedding for Yu San on the way.

    Seeing that he spent a lot of money to buy things for Yu San, he was still like "If you love me, you will bury me when you die", A Yuan was quite angry and dumped Yu San several times. White eyes.

    Shen Shaoguang laughed, I don't know that A Yuan has the characteristics of deceiving students...

    Because the rented house could not be moved, and there were no male guests in the nunnery, Shen Shaoguang let Yu San live in the shop first.

    Back to the store, the sun was still high, and before dinner was ready, Shen Shaoguang first took the candy he bought in the West Market to thank Mrs. Li next door for helping to watch the store door and stove, Come back and look at Yu San, "Go to the back first to wash your hands and face."

    Yu San responded expressionlessly and went to the back.

    Shen Shaoguang asked A Yuan to go to Qiu Dalang to buy a few hu cakes, and put some braised pork ribs on the food table - they were stewed when they went out.

    In this era, some people with spare money only eat three meals a day, and those who have no money only eat two meals. Shen Shaoguang feels that Yu San must not eat lunch.

    Equal to three times, Shen Shaoguang said, "Let's eat."

    Yu San glanced at Shen Shaoguang and sat in front of the desk to eat, thinking that he was really hungry, he didn't eat slowly, but he didn't look rude.

    When he finished eating, Shen Shaoguang asked him the taste.

    "More sugar and less salt."

    Shen Shaoguang raised his eyebrows.

    “—better than me.”

    "...!" Okay, at least a good tongue. Shen Shaoguang has always been good at discovering the strengths of his own people.

    Shen Shaoguang explained to Yu San that Chang'an people are fond of sweets, and they are food for snacks, so they put more sugar and less salt.

    Yu three nodded.

    "Can you make fish? There is a carp over a foot long in the back!" Now that you are full, you can work. Level.

    Yu San nodded again and asked Shen Shaoguang, "Do you want to do it now? Eat it while it's hot."

    Shen Shaoguang smiled and said, "If there are no guests, we will eat by ourselves."

    Yu Sanben said nothing, went to the small water tank under the kitchen to catch fish, took it and killed it.

    Seeing his method of killing fish, Shen Shaoguang felt relieved, hey, at least he won't worry about killing fish in the future.

      corpse, slapping tail, body twitching.

    The so-called "seeing its life, can't bear to see its death; hearing its voice, can't bear to eat its meat", Shen Shaoguang is not a gentleman, and he can't cook far away, but he is still a little unbearable.

    Yu San was much more clean, and killed with one knife, the absolute level of the executioner.

      Thin egg white powder, then deep-fried.

    Looking at the ruthlessly abandoned fish head and fish tail, Shen Shaoguang felt at this moment that, just because he never tires of fine food, the former owner of Yu San is probably poor. Yu San said that this sold the cook for a feast, and it was true.

      , then put the fish, and collect the juice over high heat.

                              Brick fish.

     Before Shen Shaoguang could try it, he saw a regular customer who often came to buy Yujian noodles.

    The regular customer saw the fish, his eyes lit up, and he asked Shen Shaoguang with a smile: "Our wife didn't have a good meal at noon, so I'm eating porridge now, and I want to eat something delicious, let us go here Come and see, is this fish for sale?"

    Meeting those stern eyes, Shen Shaoguang pursed his lips, and forgot, "Take it away." Then he said, "Eat it while it's hot."

    The regular customer smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you, I will bring you a plate back later." The restaurant sells vegetables but not plates, this is the rule.

      .

    Lin Yan is much more delicious than Shen Shaoguang - he ate a piece of fish after all.

    As soon as I entered my grandmother's house, I could smell the fresh smell of fish. The grandmother was sitting on the couch with a snack table in front of her. On the table were half a bowl of porridge and a few plates of porridge.

    "Brother is back?" Mrs. Jiang Tai smiled and then greeted someone to serve porridge to Lin Yan. Recently the old lady started to be confused again.

    "Try this fish, and buy it from outside at Xianlou." There were two pieces left on the plate, and Mrs. Jiang Tai generously gave one piece to her "Brother".

    Huixianlou is a famous liquor store in Hangzhou. It has been standing for a hundred years. My grandmother returned to the time when my great-grandfather was the prefect of Hangzhou.

    Lin Yan tasted it, "Well, not bad."

    "Isn't it good? But I don't think this is the same as the sweet and sour fish last time, and it was not made by a cook." Mrs. Jiang Tai said straight.

    Lin Yan looked at the servant girl beside her grandmother, the servant girl made a mouth shape, "Shen Ji".

    Lin Yan smiled helplessly, she still remembered the sweet and sour fish that Shen memorized two days ago, but what she said later was not a cook but was wrong...

    The author has something to say:

    Poor Lin Yan only ate a piece of fish, and even poorer Shen Shaoguang only licked the soup.

    Mrs. Jiang Tai was satisfied: "I said it wasn't made by a cook, right?"
