Chapter 23 Food

It turns out there is such a story.

Also, in the eyes of others, the bookstore owner's daughter is more talented and capable than a village woman like her, and her family background is better than hers.

If she hadn't resorted to means, Cui Hejin would not have married her.

Even if he marries her, he honestly cannot give her any affection.

In that life, if she hadn't provoked him so well, he would have had a pure and cold temper.

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

She automatically blocked the wood power, so she didn't listen to 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 light the fire.

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

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

Even if I attended a palace banquet, I never saw the royal chef doing it.

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

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

After Jiang Zhiluo wrapped the leek box.

"Mom, the sugar in this pot needs to be boiled for a while. It's getting late. Let's fry the leek box first."

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

Originally, Li Zheng lent them this house, which contained these things.

However, Mrs. Cui and Cui Hejin only use one pot on weekdays, and leave the other pot for a long time.

It was also in the afternoon that Jiang Zhiluo scrambled scrambled eggs to make a leek box. Then she cleaned the other pot and scrambled the eggs.

Now that the little oil from the afternoon scrambled eggs is in the pot, it is all clean. There is no need to clean the pot, just pour the oil in and fry the leek boxes.

Mrs. Cui said: "Zhiluo, I can just light the fire. It doesn't matter if the firewood is burning on the left and right stoves."

Put a piece of wood on the stove and it will burn for a long time without having to look at it, so burning two pots will not delay things at all.

"good."

Jiang Zhiluo stirred the sugar pot with a spoon. After watching the other pot get hot, she poured some oil and started frying the leek boxes.

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

"The Shi Mo School in Huaihua Lane is short of a master. 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 give it a try. I think you will definitely be accepted."

Select."

"I took your handwriting and asked about it, and told the owner of Shishi Academy. Mr. Li from Shishi Academy was amazed when he saw your handwriting. I will try it tomorrow."

Cui Hejin said nothing, seeming to be thinking about something.

In his heart, Liu Ting'an actually admired Brother Cui very much, especially for his thoughtfulness and talent. Not only that, his calligraphy was also very good, even better than those of the great Confucian scholars.

"There is only such a private school in the town. If you go there, you will just teach some children. You will not be tired and you will often take a nap. 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 there.

You can go home and live, it’s very convenient..."

Liu Ting'an felt that with Brother Cui's academic ability, if he were to take the scientific examination, he would surely be on the list. Unfortunately, Brother Cui did not want to take the scientific examination.

When he set up a stall in the town to sell manuscripts and help people write letters, he was framed. Brother Cui happened to pass by and helped him prove his innocence.

Otherwise, his reputation will be ruined, let alone his ability to study and take exams.

Brother Cui is his benefactor.

Moreover, when he read the book written by Brother Cui and copied it, he was even more shocked and admired him even more.

Liu Tingxin thought, just because of Brother Cui's appearance, children would find it pleasing to look at, and they would probably be willing to go to school.

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

He sniffed hard and said, "What is it? It smells so good. It smells delicious."

Liu Tingan felt like his stomach was growling.

Liu Ting'an didn't feel hungry at first, but the scent was so tempting that it made him feel hungry and drool came out of his mouth.

Cui Hejin raised his eyes slightly and tapped the table with his fingers, thinking about something.

Liu Ting'an breathed hard, stood up and leaned against the door, "No, Brother Cui, is your family making something delicious?"

But what delicious food can be made in the village?

Liu Ting'an's family was relatively well off. They had a lot of land left by their ancestors so that he could study. But even so, his family was very frugal. It was really expensive to repair pens, ink, paper, and inkstones.

Even so, he had never smelled such a fragrant smell.

What delicious food did Brother Cui cook at home?

No, Brother Cui also knows a little about the situation at home, so how can he have any good ingredients for cooking?

"Not sure!"

But he guessed that Jiang Zhiluo might be cooking.

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

He doesn't know how to cook, he can at most make a fire.

When he was in the Duke's Mansion, what he learned from an early age was reading, practicing calligraphy, writing essays, and then studying both civil and military arts and the Six Arts of a Gentleman.

He had never learned cooking skills, so even in the year after his exile, he did not know how to cook.

Although Liu Ting'an was curious, thinking about Brother Cui's family situation, he felt that since the family was going to cook, he had better evacuate quickly so as not to cause trouble to them.

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

After the explanation, Liu Tingan was about to leave.

When you open the door and come to the stove, the aroma becomes even stronger.

Liu Ting'an raised his hands to Mrs. Cui and said, "Old Madam, there's been a lot of trouble today. I'm going back first and will visit you another day."

Mrs. Cui was very happy that Cui Hejin had made friends in this place, and it seemed that this person came from a scholar's family and looked bookish. Mrs. Cui was also happy that Cui Hejin had such a friend.

"It's okay, it's okay. He Jin has nothing to do at home. He has you as a friend. We are all very happy to be able to chat with him."

Although Mrs. Cui also wanted to keep someone to eat, she felt that the chive box was made by Zhiluo and she couldn't do anything for her.

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

I saw Brother Cui's newly married wife standing by the pot and busy cooking. She didn't know what she was busy with, but the cooking was so fragrant.

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

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

He glanced at her, and there seemed to be tiny glimmers of light in his deep eyes, but they were fleeting.

But it can inadvertently confuse people's hearts, as if they have 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 you are my husband's friend, let's stay and have dinner together."

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

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