Basically all fine-tuning.

After the fire boiled, Chen Nian turned it into a low heat and went to take a nap. She slept for about half an hour. Chen Nian got up and stayed next to the stove for a while.

After some operation, after a while, the third sour plum soup was prepared.

Although Chen Nian is making sour plum soup here, Lu Ke is also making sour plum soup, what they both did not make one pot. The one made by Chen Nian is now trying internally.

After a while, the two of them made it at the same time. Lu Ke turned his head and found that the sour plum soup made by Chen Nian at noon seemed to be somewhat different from what he made last night, and it seemed that the ones made were better than what he made.

She didn't drink the second time Aang made yesterday, so she thought at first she thought Aang was the first time she did yesterday.

If it was that kind, although Lu Ke said it was good, he would not think that the version made by Chen Nian would taste better than the one he made.

But this time it seems to be a little different.

And after she finished it, she put it in a bucket that usually contains sour plum soup, and Chen Nian put it in a bucket, went to the wellhead of the backyard and hung it down, soaked it in the well water.

"Your method is novel, but if you can drink such a bowl of cold sour plum soup in summer, it will be more comfortable. After you finish it, remember to give me a bowl."

"No problem." Chen Nian said.

...

As the days passed day by day, because the plaque and the advertisements of Lu Wanxing dim sum shops were posted in many stores on this street, the business in the store was particularly good every day.

However, it gradually stabilized later, and the guests who come every day basically come from the same range, but they still make more snacks every afternoon.

Because there are also a fixed group of consumers who discount snacks after the hour of the New Year every day, they basically come to buy them at this time every day because it is cheaper.

And the more you do are basically done for them.

The aged sour plum soup has made progress in stages. In terms of ingredients, he has completely determined the ingredients and portions that need to be used.

But at this moment, he felt that it seemed that the overall time and steps should be able to continue to improve.

But Chen Nian thought about it carefully. If he wanted to work hard on time and steps, he should first determine the steps, and then try slowly while reducing or increasing the time of each step.

This is a fine job and requires multiple experiments, so Chen Nian is not too anxious about it.

Let’s learn about life here first. After all, when I was in Yangzhou, I mostly contacted some civilians in the city, but now it’s different. Many of the people I contacted are high-ranking officials and nobles.

Therefore, in terms of etiquette and communication methods, we need to observe carefully to avoid making mistakes and offending others unintentionally.

Most of the people I meet now are easy to talk to, and it is inevitable that I will encounter those who are difficult to talk to or deliberately make things difficult in the future.

Even if there is a plaque given by the emperor on his head, his identity is still a civilian, so those officials will not worry at all.

After all, their officials were personally recommended by the emperor. At that time, as long as they think, there would be ways to deal with themselves and their cousins.

What's more, Chen Nian suddenly realized that he was still in Chang'an City. If the recipes continued to be upgraded in the future and he could make some palace dishes, wouldn't he have to go into the palace?

So it is necessary to familiarize yourself with these in advance.

But this kind of thing can not be achieved overnight, so Chen Nian is not in a hurry. Some can just ask her cousin at home, while some Chen Nian thinks Fu Xin should understand it better.

What's more, I have been in Chang'an for a while. Now the weather is getting warmer. Sometimes I need to wear more clothes in Chang'an City, but sometimes it's enough to wear only single clothes.

On that day, the wind is bright and the sun is bright.

The servants of the Fu family came to buy snacks again. The other party wanted to buy some snacks and take them back directly, but after Chen Nian learned that Fu Xin would not be back in the evening, he said that he would come to the door in person without waiting later.

The servant suddenly thought that he seemed to have heard the master and his wife say that he planned to invite Chen Nian to the mansion in a few days to gather together, so as to do the landlords.

And when I came out today, I seemed to have heard from my wife that the master has not had any important official duties these days. Although some things are worrying, they are not something that can be thought of overnight.

Therefore, he nodded: "Young Master Chen is here, why don't I go back and talk to the butler and send a carriage to pick you up at that time."

Chen Nian waved his hand as soon as he heard this: "No, no, no, no, I'm just a civilian, how can I bother your master's carriage to come and greet you? And we are not too far away, so I'll walk over by myself at that time.

.”

Unexpectedly, the servant smiled and said, "Young Master Chen, don't be humble. Our master often says that you are brothers and sisters with him. The relationship is like a person. Moreover, when the master was still studying, it was not.

Live there, and often make jokes like "respecting yourself as your own". Don't be surprised by this. And if Mr. Chen, if you are just an ordinary person, how could you come to Beijing not long after you came to Beijing?

Let Your Majesty give me words personally?

And it seems that Prince Jing often comes to your side. There are rumors in the market that Prince Jing is a friend of you, so although our house has not seen you, they respect you very much.

.”

The other party's attitude made Chen Nian very useful. After all, who doesn't like to be praised?

But even so, Chen Nian still can't say a word at least he can't leave any handle outside.

In the end, he rejected the other party's proposal, but before the other party left, Chen Nian gave the other party a cup of cold sour plum soup that had just been lifted from the well, and then packed some snacks and stuffed them into the other party's arms, watching them leave.

At night, more and more people on the streets were getting started. Some were ready to go home after finishing their work, some had dinner early, went out shopping, and some were busy during the day, and planned to come out for a walk at night.

, there are also some young men who just want to come out to find flowers and willows.

The store had nothing to do today. Although after talking to Lu Ke, I packed some snacks, brought a large pot of sour plum soup and headed towards Fu Xin's mansion.

This time he came directly to the side door.

I knocked on the door, and soon the servant ran over and opened the door, obviously I had already been waiting here.

But after opening this time, his statement was still the same as before, but his tone changed a lot: "Young Master Chen is going to take you to the main entrance. Last time I was a little ignorant, if you go from the side door again this time, I will be a little bitchy.

The master came in and wanted to scold me."

This statement also cut off Chen Nian's idea of ​​insisting on entering this door.

I happened to come to the main entrance again, and at this time the other party ran over, then opened the door and invited Chen Nian in.

Then Chen Nian was taken to the main hall and saw Xiao Mudan and Fu Xin at a glance, and the table was filled with wine and food.

"Why do you have to fight so much?" Chen Nian couldn't help but sigh. Fu Xin's formation was too big, and at least seven dishes could not be eaten.

As for wine...

These wines are just a pleasure to be aged.

"What's the big fight? It's really not long since I came to Beijing. I built a shop on the street with my previous salary and had to pay monthly money to my servants. Otherwise, I had to do a good job for Brother Chen.

Welcome banquet.” Fu Xin said with some shame.

Chen Nian saw that the other party was saying the truth.

Then he walked up and sat down. As soon as Chen Nian sat down, Xiao Mudan beside him was about to get up and leave.

"Where are you going?" Chen Nian asked curiously, "There are still food?"

"I'll go to the house to eat."

As a result, Chen Nian's face suddenly became stern when he heard this and looked at Fu Xin: "Okay, Fu Zhuangyuanlang, where did you learn this problem?"

But Xiao Mudan quickly explained: "Mr. Chen, don't blame the master. It's just that you two haven't seen each other for a long time. I, a woman, should avoid the reminiscing between you and the two of you. Our master also told me not to mind these things, but this

It’s in the capital, and there are some things that need to be taken care of.”

But Chen Nian disagreed with this: "Isn't this just a matter of being apart? Who among the three of us still doesn't understand who? When we were poor, we climbed trees to watch dramas every day. I'll take Brother Fu to take

As a brother, you are your sister-in-law. Everyone is a family. Why not sit on the same table and eat? Don’t say that men are superior to women. There can be men and women in this world, and there can be no women.”

Fu Xin was greatly touched when he heard this, and it was also what he admired most about Chen Nian. No matter when, no matter what Chen Nian's identity is or wherever he is, he could always feel that this man seemed to be shining when he heard Chen Nian's words.

.

"Yes, madam, please sit down and eat together. Brother Chen had a kindness with you before. If you just left like this, wouldn't it disappoint your benefactor?"

Finally, Xiao Mudan had to sit down again, but there was a little respect in her eyes looking at Chen Nian.

She had only heard this in Chen Nian.

From the beginning, she felt that Chen Nian was different from others, as if she was more detached than everyone else. She had an average identity, but she seemed to see everyone being equal. At this moment, she was extremely grateful that her husband had such a good friend.
