Seeing how happy she was eating, Lingchuan, who was sitting opposite, couldn't help but have a satisfied smile on his face.
"Daughter-in-law, you like to eat crystal shrimp dumplings, I will make them for you next time."
Yun Mo looked up and said, "Don't look at how simple these shrimp dumplings are. It's not easy to make such delicious flavor. In addition to fresh shrimps and refined pork, the fillings also use matsutake mushrooms and lamb tripe."
mushrooms, gallinobacteria, king oyster mushrooms, porcini mushrooms and more than a dozen precious mushrooms and broth made from old hens to enhance the flavor and freshness. It takes both materials and effort. With just such a cage, the cost is not low.
At 50 yuan.”
Lingchuan was stunned. Such a small plate of shrimp dumplings actually used so many precious ingredients.
After eating three shrimp dumplings in a row, Yun Mo suddenly thought of something, "Have you eaten it?"
"I have already eaten."
Yun Mo looked at the man with round cheeks, as cute as a little hamster.
"I'm asking you if you've eaten shrimp dumplings?"
Lingchuan shook his head honestly, "Sister-in-law Hua sent us shrimp dumplings. There is only one basket. I'm afraid you won't have enough. I ate egg pancakes, tofu curd, and soy milk."
These items are also included on the dinner plate. Maybe because she knows how much she eats, there are only two or three bites of each item.
"Daughter-in-law, don't drink this soy milk. The cook may have made it last night and it has gone rancid. I only took one sip and then stopped drinking it."
Yun Mo was amused by the man's words, "Idiot, this is not soy milk, this is soy juice. It is made from mung beans. It has been fermented, so it tastes a little sour, but it has high nutritional value and is loved by people here in the capital.
Drink this."
Knowing that he had made a mistake, Lingchuan's face couldn't help but turn red.
"When the cook asked me if I wanted to try the soy milk, I thought it was the soy milk we had there, but it was made from mung beans, so I didn't refuse."
Yun Mo picked up the bean juice and took a sip. It tasted quite authentic. The sour smell was mixed with the strong aroma of mung beans, which was a bit overpowering.
Although she was from the north in her previous life, she was not a fan of soy juice. She could drink it but didn't like it.
Although the shrimp dumplings were delicious, they were still a bit greasy after eating several of them. After taking two sips of the bean juice to suppress the greasy taste, Yun Mo picked up a shrimp dumpling with chopsticks and fed it to the man's mouth.
"Daughter-in-law, I'm full, you eat."
"Open your mouth."
"oh."
A shrimp dumpling is a bit big for Yunmo and needs to be eaten in two bites, but it is just right for Lingchuan, one bite at a time.
There were eight shrimp dumplings in a basket, Yun Mo ate four, and the rest went into Lingchuan's mouth.
After eating and drinking enough, leaving the dishes and chopsticks for the servants to clean up, Yun Mo picked up her bag and hurried out with Ling Chuan.
Also going out with the two of them was Wei Fu, who was specially asked by Shao Lin to lead the way for them.
Because she had to pick up Zeng Fang and Yao Suhua, Yun Mo asked Wei Fu to prepare two cars. She and Ling Chuan took the new car given to her by Shao Lin.
According to Wei Fu, today is the first day the car has been driven since it was delivered, but strangely, there is no leather smell like a new car in the car, but a fresh lemon smell.
Seeing Yun Mo curiously looking at the interior of the car, Wei Fu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around with a smile.
"Miss, is the decoration of this car okay? I don't know the preferences of your girls' family, so I asked Miss Second and them specifically."
"It's very good, Uncle Fu, is this car really a new car?"
"Why do you ask this, young lady?"
"Generally new cars have a leather smell, but this car doesn't seem to have it."
Hearing that Yun Mo was wondering about this, Wei Fu quickly explained with a smile, "The car smelled of leather when it was delivered. I was afraid that the eldest lady wouldn't like it, so I wiped the seats and the compartment with a wet towel every day and ventilated it to dry.
Dry it and add a few fresh lemons to remove the smell. It took more than a week before the smell in the car finally disappeared."
No wonder.
"Uncle Fu, thank you for your hard work."
"Hey, why bother? It doesn't take much effort. Miss, I heard that you want to buy a house near Beijing University. What kind of house do you want to buy?"
"It doesn't matter the style. A small Western-style building with a courtyard is fine, as long as it is a single-family house with a quiet environment."
"I'm quite familiar with that area. According to the eldest lady's request, there happens to be a suitable place. Why don't I take you to see it later?"
"Okay, let's go."
After picking up mother and daughter Zeng Fang and Yao Suhua from the hotel, the two cars set off directly to the house Wei Fu mentioned.
The house is a two-entry courtyard built more than a hundred years ago and is very well preserved. The red paint on the doors, windows and beams has not peeled off.
Although it has a two-entry layout, the overall area is not large, even smaller than the courtyard house bought in Yunmojiang City.
But it is understandable, after all, this is the capital, and it is not easy to build such a small courtyard with two entrances in a prosperous area. In ancient times, it would have taken an official of fourth grade or above to afford such a small courtyard.
"Momo, this yard is nice, but it's not spacious enough and there's no pond. How are you going to raise Bai Erbai?" Zeng Fang couldn't help but say.
Wei Fu took over, "Miss, if you want to buy a house with a pond near Beijing University, you probably won't be able to. Although this area is not as good as the city center, it is still a prosperous area where every inch of land is valuable.
In my opinion, it is better for the eldest lady to keep Dabai Erbai in the old house. Even if you can buy a house with a small pond here, how can it be as spacious and comfortable as the artificial lake dug by the madam for you?
Don’t worry, Miss, I will take good care of Dabai and Erbai for you, and you can come back to see them at the weekend.”
Hearing Wei Fu's words, Zeng Fang nodded in agreement, "I think it's okay. Dabai and Erbai are used to being free, and they probably won't be used to being kept in such a small place."
That being said, how could Yun Mo not see Wei Fu's intentions?
It was nothing more than using Dabai Erbai as a constraint to make her go back to her old house more often.
Apart from the inconvenience of raising Bai Erbai, she really couldn't find anything wrong with this house, so she simply turned to ask Lingchuan.
"What do you think of it here?"
Lingchuan nodded, "It's good. I just took a look. There are six large rooms in total, which are enough for us to live in. There is also a kitchen and a bathhouse, and the orientation is good."
Yun Mo turned back and asked Wei Fu, "How far is it from outside Beijing?"
"It's not far, only about three kilometers. It's very convenient to ride a bike or take a bus. The station is 200 meters away."
Yun Mo nodded and asked Yao Suhua's opinion again.
Yao Suhua is very satisfied that her daughter will live in such a house in the future.
Seeing that no one objected, Yun Mo decided to buy the yard.
"Uncle Fu, please help make an appointment with the landlord, and let's talk about the house price."
"Hey, Miss, I can lend you my mobile phone."
Wei Fu took his mobile phone and went outside to contact the landlord, while Yun Mo, mother and daughter Zeng Fang wandered around the house.
"Momo, you and Brother Ling live in the main room, and I can live in the east wing. The east wing is close to the toilet, and it's convenient to get up at night. Winter in the capital is very cold. It's several degrees below zero at the coldest time. Then we'll have to
Prepare a few extra quilts, I'm most afraid of the cold."
"In winter, all rooms are heated, not to mention the number of beds. Even if you have a bed, you will feel too hot."
