Ye Shihan, who was galloping by, had a look of pride on his face. The woman just ate the ashes from his horse's hoof. He did that on purpose. The purpose was to tell her that in this capital, status trumps everything else.
Bai Chen looked at him sideways and maliciously, "Shihan, are you really interested in that woman?"
But he snorted coldly, "I hate her very much. Such a woman is only qualified to be a country woman. I will not have such low expectations."
Shi Ziqiang also echoed, "That's right. I heard that the concubine has taken the eldest daughter of the Sun family to live in the residence of His Highness the Seventh Prince. Miss Sun is a well-known talented woman in the capital."
Mentioning that Miss Sun, Ye Shihan couldn't help but become even more annoyed.
She is a delicate eldest lady. Just one day after she came to the mansion, the servants in the mansion began to complain.
She is very delicate. She has to wash her hands with warm water three times, take a bath with water soaked in fresh flower petals, and have to prepare eighteen dishes for meals, but she only takes a few bites, and she has never even eaten some dishes...
With all this going on, the concubine actually thinks this is what a lady should do, which is really frustrating.
Seeing that he was silent, Bai Chen continued to joke, "Does His Highness the Seventh Prince want to go back to the mansion now to meet your Miss Sun? I've been here for a day, and you don't even show your face. Isn't that bad? Besides, there are more
As for the concubine, be careful if she goes back and pulls your ears."
Mentioning his own mother, Ye Shihan became even more annoyed. She only raised her ears, hey!
"My mother is here. How can my son not show up? I'm going back first. Let's meet again another day."
Just as Ye Shihan was about to hit the horse and move forward, Shi Ziqiang shouted: "Hey, I heard that there is a new singer in Tingyu Pavilion. When will you invite the two brothers to sit down?"
"It's my own business. I can say goodbye anytime I want to go."
As soon as he finished speaking, he tightened the reins of his horse and left quickly, heading straight for home.
Su Mu'er's new shop has been almost tidied up by several servants. Now she only needs to deliver the counter she customized and go to the government to register, and then it can be opened for business.
The backyard is very spacious, with not only the main room, but also the east and west wing rooms. Su Mu'er specially prepared a room for Yuan Min and Qing'er. Doudou can choose who to live with according to his own preferences.
"Third sister, this place is so big. Please bring mother and grandmother here later."
Yuan Min walked around here and returned to the yard to look at Su Muer and suggested.
Su Mu'er looked at him and nodded, "What you said makes sense, but we can't live here with too many people. We are only staying temporarily. Uncle Wu and the others are also staying here. I will go when I'm done with these days.
Rent a yard nearby, and when the time comes we can move there together, and my mother and grandmother can move here."
She did think so. Right now, she had to teach them the braised egg technique she knew, and then they had to practice it repeatedly. So before the official opening, they actually had a lot to do.
.
After settling down Yuan Min and Cheng to study, and finding some gadgets for Doudou to keep him quiet for a while, she summoned the four servants.
"You also know that the income from selling these eggs is slow, so now I want you to learn the technique of braised eggs. Xiao Wu, A Liang, you two are responsible for learning from me, and A Zi and A Qiu are responsible for receiving the guests in front.
.”
Hearing what she said, Xiao Wu nodded, "Miss, how do you marinate these eggs? I have never heard of it."
Naturally, they have never heard of it. Tea eggs, preserved eggs and salted eggs were only invented later.
But this is the best. If no one has seen it before, it will naturally become a novelty.
"Xiao Wu, you learn braised tea eggs and pickled salted eggs. A Liang, you are responsible for making preserved eggs. Now I will tell you the steps. You each prepare what you need. Remember, what I have suggested
The materials are all commonly used, so you have to negotiate the price with the store and strive for long-term cooperation. I can’t do it alone, so let’s work together.”
"Don't worry, miss, we have been with you for so many years, we know what to do."
"Yes, please don't worry, Miss, you haven't treated us badly these years, and we have the confidence to follow you."
Seeing A Liang and Xiao Wu's vows, Su Mu'er nodded with some relief,
"Ingredients required for this boiled preserved egg: tea leaves, green onions, ginger, cinnamon, bay leaves, Sichuan peppercorns, aniseed, dried red chili peppers and soy sauce."
She wrote as she spoke, writing down all the required materials on the papyrus paper.
There was no light soy sauce or dark soy sauce in ancient times, so soy sauce had to be used instead.
"Ingredients needed for salted eggs: salt, water, pepper, cinnamon, aniseed, and white wine."
She finished writing these two prescriptions and handed them to Xiao Wu, "These two prescriptions are what you need to prepare. Don't mix them up."
Xiao Wu took it and nodded, folded the prescription and put it in his sleeve.
Next, she spread out another piece of straw paper and said, "Making preserved eggs is more troublesome than tea eggs and salted eggs, so you need to practice more. The required materials are: lime, alkali, and salt."
After writing, she handed the piece of paper to A Liang's hand, "You may think that preserved eggs require the fewest materials, but they are the most difficult. Now you go and prepare them individually. Visit a few more spice shops and be sure to use them well.
The price of things cannot be too high.”
Xiao Wu and A Liang responded, turned and left.
She looked at Ah Zi and Ah Qiu again,
"The two of you will go to the tailor shop to make two outfits each."
"Miss, there is no need. Our clothes are not torn, so there is no need to do it."
As soon as she finished speaking, Azi immediately refused. The money to make one piece of clothing was enough for her to work for half a month, and she didn't want to spend the money.
Su Mu'er waved her hand to interrupt her, "You don't need to pay for it yourself. You can't make such a long skirt that is too complicated. You need a short top and separate and neat trousers. In addition, each person makes two to wear on the head."
Curtain hat, what we make is food, women love to lose their hair, this must be prevented in advance.”
Hearing her say this, Ah Zi and Ah Qiu nodded in relief.
"By the way, Azi, you are not only responsible for receiving guests in front, but you also have to take over the work of the accountant. Go back to the chicken farm and pay a thousand taels of silver for daily expenses. You have to keep track of the accounts.
."
Azi couldn't help but pursed her lips in embarrassment, "Miss, can I do it?"
She looked at her and nodded, "Of course, otherwise you have been with me for so many years in vain? You are the only one among these people who can read. I will tell you how to keep accounts later. It only takes a few days to get to know each other."
Azi nodded in understanding, but she was still very happy that the young lady could trust her like this.
After arranging these people, Su Muer got up and went to the door of the shop and stretched for a long time.
In such good weather, people are actually coming and going on this street. It seems that doing business here is not necessarily a bad thing.
