Chapter 1699 Help Ling Yunzhi as a favor

Back at the county government office, Ling Yunzhi was still taking a nap. No one woke him up, so he put his things away and went to take a nap.

Ling Mengqing couldn't sleep, so she rinsed the mushrooms she picked little by little with clean water.

After Ling Yunzhi woke up, he heard the sound of water behind him, so he took a look and saw his sister washing mushrooms. He smiled and asked, "Did you pick so many mushrooms today?"

"Yes." Ling Mengqing raised her head, "Brother, you are awake. Have you eaten the meal I gave you at noon?"

Ling Yunzhi nodded and said, "Eat it, it's delicious."

Ling Mengqing said while washing the mushrooms: "Brother Yun and the others ordered a large table of dishes at Fulin Restaurant today. They were all delicious and cost almost twenty taels of silver!"

Ling Mengqing frowned when she mentioned the two taels of silver. Although the silver was not hers, she still felt a little distressed.

Ling Yunzhi smiled and said: "This is also in Yuyuan County, in Jiangzhou. Your brother Yun and the others didn't spend five or six taels of silver when they went to a restaurant."

"I know." Ling Mengqing stopped washing vegetables, "I don't think Brother Yun and the others spent too much, I just feel sorry for the money."

My brother's monthly salary is only five taels of silver, and as long as there is no money in the county government's account, he won't be able to get a single cent of the five taels of silver.

"By the way, the county boss also bought a lot of beef and mutton. He said that tonight he would set up a stove in the yard, burn the charcoal, and fry the meat and these mushrooms on an iron plate to eat. Brother, you can come back early after finishing the work up front.

"

"Okay." Ling Yunzhi nodded, then turned around and went to the front office.

Shen Wan got up and saw that Ling Mengqing had washed all the mushrooms. She couldn't help but twitch the corners of her eyes. It would be difficult to preserve the mushrooms after washing them.

Especially this matsutake, if it is not washed and put in a cool place with soil, it can be stored for two or three days, but if it is washed, it cannot be stored.

The ones with open umbrellas can be dried directly in the sun and used to make soup later, but the ones without umbrellas are too regrettable to be dried in the sun, so it is better to eat them directly.

But there was so much that they couldn't finish it. Then Shen Wan thought of the people in the Yamen. She bought a lot of meat in the restaurant today, as well as rabbits and pheasants. All the Yamen servants and prison chiefs combined.

, there are less than ten people in total, so why not invite them to eat together, which can be considered as a favor to Ling Yunzhi.

When Ling Mengqing heard that she wanted to ask the people from the Yamen to eat Teppanyaki together in the evening, she was stunned for a while, feeling a little unhappy in her heart. But then she thought about it, the ingredients were all ready-made, and she didn't need to spend any more money.

Moreover, they were eating and drinking in the back, and the spicy aroma wafted to the front, which was indeed quite torturous. So he asked Mu Mu to go to the front to tell his brother, and let the people in the front office resign, and they all went to the back to eat Teppanyaki together.

The meat must be marinated before frying, so after waking up, Shen Wan, Xiao Xing and Ling Mengqing got to work.

Shen Wan also wanted to make stewed matsutake rice, but found that there was not much rice in the rice vat in the kitchen. Without saying anything, she asked Mu Qing to go to the rice store and buy several hundred kilograms of rice.

Ling Mengqing was shocked when Mu Qing and the guys from Mihang took the rice to the back door and carried it bag by bag into the courtyard.

"Home, don't you still have rice at home? Why did you buy so much rice?" She was actually very happy when she saw so much rice. With so much rice, she might not be able to finish it all in a year!

At the same time, she felt a little ashamed. Brother Yun and the county boss were guests, and she and her brother were the hosts. It was really embarrassing for this guest to come to play and still ask the guest to buy rice.
