Chapter 687 Happy Event

"What else is there?" Xia Mingyue asked.

But Song stuttered for a while, lowered his head, as if it was very difficult to say it.

Just when Xia Mingyue was surprised at what kind of thing could make Song, who was very decisive in his work, feel so embarrassed, Lu, who was standing beside him, laughed out loud, "This is a happy event, I have no shame to say it, my brother and sister are happy for you too!"

Happy event?

Xia Mingyue was surprised and laughed, "Since it's a happy event, let me tell you it and let me be happy together, so I'll be happy."

"Yes." Lu's voice was on the side.

Song saw this and then raised his head, but his whole face was still red, full of embarrassment, "It's indeed a happy event, is it...I'm going to get married."

Get married?

Xia Mingyue became more and more interested.

Previously, the Song family moved outside because of Li Shuisheng and his unwillingness to remarry, and Xia Mingyue also knew about it.

At that time, I thought that Song would probably spend the rest of his life alone, but I didn't expect that he would get married at this time. "Who is your husband? How is he?" Xia Mingyue was very curious about what kind of person could make Song open his heart and agree with each other. "Miss Xia also knows Liu Caisheng, who lives in Beicheng District." Song said shyly, "Before, Caisheng led someone to rebuild the kitchen for Madame Xia. I was responsible for sending some tea, meals and other items. After a while, I became familiar with it. After a long time of contact, I felt that Caisheng was good..."

It is a love affair over time, and the two of them are very good.

Xia Mingyue couldn't help but nodded repeatedly, "Indeed, Brother Liu is indeed a good character, and you two are very compatible."

"When will you plan to get a wedding?"

"It's time to invite someone to see it."

The matter was about to start, and Song's face was much less shy, and he smiled, "It's scheduled for April 22, and there are still twenty days left."

"That's good. I'm back and I can have a drink of wedding wine with you and get some joy."

Xia Mingyue smiled and said, "Preparing the marriage is not easy. During this period, I will first divide the work at hand. If I can't get it, I will do my best. I will give you ten days off."

Xia Mingyue said, searched the things I brought back from the capital, took out two pieces of bright red fabrics purchased in the Beijing shop, and a pair of gilded bracelets, and handed them to Song, "I'm happy that you get married. These are the makeup I have added to you."

"Thank you, Miss Xia, Miss Xia." Song was flattered and thanked her a lot. Then, according to what Xia Mingyue said, he arranged some things in the central kitchen.

Lu continued to talk to Xia Mingyue.

After a while, Manager Ge arrived at home in a hurry and brought a lot of things when he came.

Several chilled sea fish, a basket of sea shrimps, and several signature dishes sold very popularly in Buyunlou.

Barbecued quail with honey, suckling pork trotters, garlic and fish pot, spicy fried chicken and miscellaneous...

These dishes were all made by Lou Shanzi, Zhao Dahu and Zhao Erhu together, and they are also dishes that order extremely high in Buyunlou today.

Xia Mingyue tasted it one by one.

The roasted quail has a crispy and tender skin, which tastes neither oily nor greasy, and it has a fragrant taste. When sold, you can cut small pieces or just cut the whole quail from the middle according to the needs of diners. However, no matter how you eat it, it will taste wonderful.

Watercurd pig's trotters are stewed first and then roasted. The former has stewed the pig's trotters softly and removed the bones. Then, with the help of the color and taste of the fermented pork beans, the pig's trotters taste more rich. When eating, you only need to stuff the trotters into pieces and bones into your mouth. The bones can be spit out easily, leaving only the tendons in the mouth, soft and glutinous mouth, which is very satisfying.

Garlic fish pot is a bit like the whole grilled fish made by Xia Mingyue before, but it is fried first, and then stewed in a casserole. The soup continues to boil, and the stewed fish meat becomes more tender and tasty. The blessing of a large amount of garlic makes the whole fish pot become rich in garlic, rich and wonderful.

Not to mention spicy fried chicken miscellaneous items, they use chicken gizzards, chicken hearts, chicken intestines, etc. After they are completely washed and processed, they are cooked with various spicy spices such as chili and pepper. The fried chicken is delicious and chewy, and the spicy taste is fully stimulated by the taste buds. The more you eat, the more you want to eat, the more you want to eat, it is simply a magic tool for rice...

In short, everyone is delicious!

Xia Mingyue praised all these dishes, and only praised the three people for their more and more improvement in their skills, and she felt that she was not wrong at the beginning. These three people will become excellent chefs in the future!

Xia Mingyue praised the chef of Buyunlou, which made Zhangguan Ge, the shopkeeper of Buyunlou, very happy.

With the time of tasting the dishes, Manager Ge roughly talked about the current situation of Bu Yunlou.

The situation of Buyun Tower in Jinqiu County is beyond words, and it is still a well-known golden sign in the entire county, and no one can surpass it.

And Shopkeeper Ge felt that the restaurant business was easy to make money and had a good reputation, so he simply closed the Sifang Gambling House completely, and even resold the houses and land that originally opened Sifang Gambling House.

As for the resale money, Zhangji Ge opened a new restaurant in Changzhou Prefecture City. The name is still in Buyun Building. Regarding the chef's arrangement, Zhangji Geji initially decided to take Lou Shanzi with his apprentice. In Jinqiu County, the brothers Zhao Dahu and Zhao Erhu took the lead. "Shanzi is calm in his work, so it will be fine if he wants him to expand his territory." Zhangji Ge smiled and said, "Although Zhao Dahu and Zhao Erhu are off-spoken, I am here, and with Sister Lu in charge, there will be no problem."

Indeed.

Xia Mingyue nodded, "Shopkeeper Ge's arrangements are excellent."

Shopkeeper Ge smiled, "In the Changzhou Prefecture City, I asked Wu Xiong to look at some stalls. There are Miss Jiang and Fu over there, and it doesn't matter much."

Xia Mingyue nodded again, and a thought suddenly arose in her heart. It is understandable that Manager Ge doesn’t work in a gambling shop, and he wants to do other businesses. He just worked so hard to get to Kaibuyun Tower in Changzhou Prefecture...

It seems that this is for the sake of vinegar, and he has made dumplings!

Shopkeeper Ge is really unspeakable to treat Wu Xiong!

Talking to Manager Ge for a while, and in the evening, Song Changhe, the manager of the vinegar brewing workshop, came.

I brought two jars of millet vinegar that had just been out of the jar, saying that I would give it to Xia Mingyue as a gift for the welcome.

Xia Mingyue did not refuse, and took it all away, and talked to Song Changhe about the current situation of the vinegar-making workshop.

Millet balsamic vinegar has a good texture, a strong taste, and a strong aroma. It can be said that it is well-known now. Not only does the vendors from Jinqiu County and nearby villages and towns, but even further away from county and towns are also coming here to purchase goods.

Xiaomi balsamic vinegar has obviously become a well-known signature and specialty in Jinqiu County, and it feels like supply is in short supply.

Except for the fact that a certain amount must be sold to local residents in Jinqiu County every day to meet the daily needs of the people, the rest of the vendors who come to purchase goods are almost in stock, and they all need to be booked first and wait a few days before they can be available. If you wait until the season, you will have it in the first half of the month.

There is a shortage of supply, and many people even want to get more money. They go through the back door to get the goods in advance. Some of them have bad intentions. They even want to sneak into the vinegar brewing workshop in the name of doing work, learn skills, and steal the goods from the workshop.

In response to this, Song Changhe had to discuss with Fan Pingyang, the current county magistrate of Jinqiu County, and jointly established a supervision and inspection department from the Jinqiu County Government and the vinegar brewing workshop to prevent corruption, theft and other incidents from happening inside the vinegar brewing workshop.

Fan Pingyang also took this matter seriously. He personally inspected it several times with Song Changhe and cleared up some bad habits and behaviors. Nowadays, no one dares to do rash things in vinegar-making workshops. "It's just that everyone misses Miss Xia very much, especially those masters who make vinegar. If Miss Xia has time, she must sit in the vinegar-making workshop and talk to everyone." Song Changhe sent an invitation.

"Sure." Xia Mingyue agreed, "When I finish the days of work, I will definitely go and sit down."

"Then wait for Miss Xia." Song Changhe grinned.

The things were delivered, and the conversation was almost the same. Song Changhe knew that Xia Mingyue had returned from the capital, and it was a long journey, so he did not disturb him too much, so he said goodbye first.

When the next day, Guo Kang came to the door.

Guo Kanglai didn't know that Xia Mingyue came back from the capital, but the weather was clear and there were many spring specialties in the orchard and farm. Guo Kanglai picked some and sent them over.

When Guo Kanglai saw Xia Mingyue coming back, he was also very happy and only showed Xia Mingyue the things he brought one by one.

The fields were so full of gray vegetables, noodles and other wild vegetables, fresh and tender toon buds that had just grown from the branches, the branches were just crawling on the elm seeds, the tender elm seeds that were almost dripping from water, and the tender lotus leaves that had just grown in spring...

Xia Mingyue likes the fresh food in the fields the most. Now she sees so much delicious taste in spring, and she is also very happy. "Manager Guo still remembers it if you are willing to do it."

"Manager Guo happened to be here, This time, the emperor rewarded a lot of fertile land. I looked at the place not far from our farm. You can take the document and take a look. After taking over, you can see how to manage it. "

"In addition, when I went to the capital this time, I studied the method of planting cotton with Lord Fan of the Ministry of Revenue. If I first cultivate cotton seedlings and then plant them separately, the effect should be even better. Our farm can use this method to plant some cotton this year..."

Xia Mingyue took out the cotton trolley that Fan Hongyu gave her and discussed with Guo Kanglai for a long time about cotton planting.

Guo Kanglai listened seriously and thought that the method of planting cotton to cultivate seedlings first was very feasible, but he also spoke, "The winter wheat has been planted, and it is not appropriate to change it again at this time. He can only wait for the autumn harvest this year, prepare in advance, and specially vacate the land and plant cotton."

"The old slave also went to the new farm to see if there is a suitable free land. If there is, try to cultivate seedlings as you said. Plant cotton to see the situation. "

"You can just look at the seasonal arrangements." Xia Mingyue smiled, "If it is a field with sufficient fertility, interplanting can also be used, so that wheat can be produced without delaying food and drink, and cotton can be planted and sold for money."

The so-called interplanting means that in the fields, every three or four rows of wheat is planted into a row of wheat, then cotton, and then wheat can be planted.

It uses the different growth cycles and growth times of wheat and cotton. It can be planted together without delaying their respective growth, maturity and picking, and can maximize land utilization.

But this interplantation method requires a high level of fertility on the field. If the fertility is insufficient, it will be counterproductive and neither can be obtained.

The orchard used interplantation methods such as fruit trees, sweet potatoes and spring rapeseed. Therefore, Guo Kanglai had a lot of experience in the interplantation methods. He immediately understood the key points that Xia Mingyue said and nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, Mrs. Xia, I understand."

Guo Kanglai was safe in doing things, and Xia Mingyue was naturally very relieved, but he also reminded, "If there is insufficient manpower, it should be cultivated and cultivated, and buy it. If you encounter a very suitable one, it is long and short. All work is OK. Remember not to take everything on yourself and save money for me. You have to know that if you are tired and there is no reliable person to take over, my master will not only not make money, but also have to pay some more. You have to calculate this account clearly."

Xia Mingyue joked, Guo Kanglai was full of warmth in his heart and replied with a smile, "It's this, Miss Xia, don't worry, I'm a good match, and I'm sure I won't do business that will make the master lose money."

"That's fine." Xia Mingyue smiled and selected some simple cloth from the gifts brought by the capital and those who visited the visiting the countryside in the past few days, and asked Guo Kang to bring them together.

When Guo Kang came and left, he thanked him very much.

After he left, Xia Mingyue was enthusiastically studying how to deal with these fresh delicacies produced from the fields.

As for wild vegetables, blanch them first, mix them coldly, and eat them with porridge in the morning and evening. The rice is refreshing and full of fragrance.

Most of the remaining ones were slightly salted and killed with water, chopped and seasoned with the meat filling, made wontons with thin skin and large fillings, pinched small and exquisite dumplings, and made white and fat buns...

Each one is extremely delicious!

Note that elm seeds are steamed into elm seed rice, made into steamed buns, and paired with spicy but fragrant chili oil, it satisfys your cravings.

Tender lotus leaves are more useful, steamed pork with lotus leaf pulp, lotus leaf chicken, lotus leaf porridge, lotus leaf steamed pork ribs...everything is different, but everything is delicious!

As for the season-limited toon buds, they are chopped into egg pancakes with egg liquid, or marinated with meat and fried peppers to make toon meat sauce, or the whole toon bud is wrapped with egg flour and turned into crispy toon fish in the oil pan...

Just when the whole yard was filled with a strong aroma, Xia Mingyue's house came to visit again.

This time, the guests were obviously not good.
