After Xiao Fubao's Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital Chapter 45

Chapter 45 Obtaining the secret recipe

Zhang Yunniang was holding a vegetable basket in one hand and two pieces of meat in the other. She wanted to carry Niu Niu on her back, but Niu Niu didn't want her to work too hard.

In the end, Niuniu arrived home holding her mother's clothes.

Zhang Yunniang was originally worried that the little girl would be playful and run away because of something new she saw on the way, but she didn't expect that Niu Niu was too obedient. She was told to hold the corner of her clothes, but she really wouldn't let go.

Niuniu was still holding on until she returned to the house and entered the house she rented.

"Okay, you can let go and go play by yourself." Zhang Yunniang said softly.

Gu Zhao didn't see her all morning, so he said anxiously: "Niuniu, I found a good place, it's fun, come with me!"

Niu Niu was moved when she heard this, but she still shook her head and said, "Third brother, go play first. I'll find you later."

"What's the matter with you?" Gu Zhao didn't understand why his friend suddenly stopped playing with him.

"I have something to ask my father for advice." Niu Niu said seriously.

Gu Zhao disagreed: "What can I ask you?"

Niuniu took out the crumpled dark yellow paper from before.

As soon as Gu Zhao saw it was paper, he immediately exclaimed: "How old are you, why do you have to ask dad for advice! Why do you have the same moral character as that old scholar of eldest brother!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a familiar voice came from behind him: "Third brother, who do you think is the old scholar?"

Gu Zhao was so frightened that he lost his mind: "Big...big brother, why are you walking silently!"

Gu Yan glanced at him angrily and said, "If you don't make progress yourself, you are trying to prevent your little sister from making progress. Have you finished the homework that your father assigned you a few days ago?"

Gu Zhao and Niu Niu had been playing around in the house these days, and had long forgotten their schoolwork. When Brother Living Hell mentioned this matter, his face suddenly wrinkled.

Gu Zhao was slipped away by Gu Yanti.

Gu Mingda had long heard the children's chat, turned around and said to Niu Niu with a smile: "If there is anything you need, let dad help you look at it."

Niu Niu trotted over and showed the piece of paper to Gu Mingda like a treasure.

The paper has obviously been around for some time and has experienced many twists and turns before it appears as weather-beaten as it does now.

Gu Mingda glanced at it casually. Looking at it for the first time, he felt that it was all nonsense.

"Dad, what's written on it? The grandfather who sold it to me said it was a secret recipe for food, worth tens of thousands of dollars!" Niu Niu opened her **** eyes and said innocently.

Gu Mingda asked: "Didn't you see it?"

Niu Niu nodded and said, "After reading it, I don't recognize many words."

Gu Mingda picked up the little girl from the ground.

Niu Niu sat on her father's knee, watching her father teach her word after word: "This word is the word 'material', this word is the word 'kill'..."

Gu Mingda was teaching, but his voice suddenly stopped.

Niuniu didn't know what was going on and kept asking: "Dad, why don't you teach me anymore? What do you pronounce this character?"

"This word is the word 'wrinkle'." After Gu Mingda finished answering his daughter's words, he quickly called Zhang Yunniang over.

Zhang Yunniang was confused.

Gu Mingda asked his wife carefully how he got this piece of paper.

After Zhang Yunniang finished explaining the cause and effect, she couldn't help but complain: "This old beggar is really bad. I don't know where he picked up a piece of waste paper, but he even deceived a child."

Gu Mingda shook his head slightly and said, "It's not really a lie."

Zhang Yunniang was illiterate, but after marrying Gu Mingda, she learned a lot of words from her husband. After hearing this, she took the piece of paper again and said, "I read it before. Although it was densely written, But they are all nonsense, either limericks or numbers. Could it be that there is really some amazing secret recipe?" Gu Mingda said: "This piece of paper uses reverse rhyme, and there is indeed a secret recipe hidden in it. ”

Zhang Yunniang was shocked when she heard this and couldn't help but look at Niuniu who looked like a little idiot beside her.

"It's a marinade recipe."

Gu Mingda spread out a piece of white paper, compared it with the white paper, and reproduced the original appearance of the secret recipe on this paper.

Looking at the various condiments and medicinal materials in the recipe, Zhang Yunniang couldn't help but believe that she was lucky again and really got a secret recipe for braised food.

"It's obvious that this recipe was recorded in such a troublesome way. It's a pity that it seems to be useless for future generations. It fell into the hands of the old beggar several times and was replaced by him as waste paper." Gu Mingda sighed with emotion. road.

Zhang Yuniang said: "Ms. sir, I have never heard of the counter-recipe you mentioned. I guess many people don't understand it, so they have wasted such a good braised food recipe."

Gu Mingda nodded and said: "There are not many people who know the rhyme method of Fiqie Zhu. I only accidentally read a miscellaneous book and learned that people used this method to send secret messages in the past."

After Gu Mingda finished speaking, he carefully explained to his wife what the anti-qie rhyme method was. Although Zhang Yunniang seemed to understand it, she listened very seriously. Even Niu Niu followed it intently.

"Ms. sir, I'll go out again in the afternoon and collect all the things here. Let's also cook a pot and taste what kind of magical delicacy it is. It's worth passing on in such a cumbersome way." Zhang Yunniang said with a smile. .

Gu Mingda was cautious by nature and said: "If you buy it all at once, I'm afraid it will attract people's attention, so you should buy it in several installments... You are a weak woman and it is not safe to go out alone. That's all. I will accompany you after the trial in our hospital is over." purchase."

Zhang Yunniang did not insist on making the finished product according to the recipe immediately. Nowadays, there are many people living in this house. If the recipe is copied by others, it will be regrettable.

Zhang Guangzong and his wife in the backyard started making trouble again.

Zhang Guangzong looked at a bowl of broth and a bowl of white rice on the table. His face suddenly became displeased and he said, "Are you a grinder? You only need to push and turn. If you say broth, just prepare broth." Don't you even know how to buy some green vegetable leaves?”

Zhang Guangzong has always been very picky about food. Although he likes to eat meat, eating only meat also feels very greasy.

Little Cai shrank her neck in fright and said, "No...no money to buy groceries..."

Zhang Guangzong's dissatisfaction suddenly reached its peak: "I gave you so much money, how could you spend it all so quickly? How on earth did you, a prodigal woman, become the master of the family!"

Little Cai had no choice but to explain what happened today.

It was okay if she didn't explain. After explaining, Zhang Guangzong was so angry that he slammed the table.

"Useless things, even a beggar can defraud you of your money! Twenty cents can buy a pound of meat, and you were blackmailed by him like that!" Zhang Guangzong yelled.

Xiao Cai explained weakly: "Ms. sir, I asked that old beggar to trick Zhang Yunniang... She must also have suffered a loss..."

Two people can't sleep in the same bed. After hearing this, Zhang Guangzong's anger subsided a little and said, "You can still be of some use."

Little Cai added, "But I really don't have any money now. I don't know how to buy food for tomorrow."

Zhang Guangzong glared at her, but he also knew that some money could not be saved. He handed over a handful of coins with great pain and warned: "Save some money."

Miss Cai looked at such a small amount of money and said with a sad face: "Mr. Master, buying vegetables and meat in Fucheng is expensive. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat anything good with this money..."

Zhang Guangzong slapped him and said, "If you can't eat it, don't eat it! You loser, no amount of money is enough to defeat you!"

Little Cai was hit again. After covering her face and being stunned for a moment, she suddenly said, "Ms. sir, do you still remember the family next door to the inn we stayed in before?"

Mentioning the inn where he stayed before, Zhang Guangzong felt angry and wanted to slap Xiao Cai again, but he still held back and asked: "That family that raised a stupid son?"

Little Cai nodded and said, "Our family is in need of a child bride, and the people in Fucheng are generous and willing to give her a bride."

Little Cai made a sign of "ten".

Twelve taels of silver is nothing in Fucheng, but it can solve the urgent needs of this couple.

Little Cai continued: "Niu Niu has been raised by Zhang Yunniang and his wife for so long. She is white and tender. She looks like the little fairy boy in the New Year paintings. Those idiot parents must be satisfied. Maybe we can still raise the price."
