MTL - Chang’an Small Restaurant-Chapter 43 year-end big business

After the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, it is really the bottom of the year, everyone is busy sweeping dust, making spring banners, changing peach charms, and preparing Tusu wine, five-starry plate, glue Tooth glutinous rice and other products should be eaten on a diet and sacrificed to ancestors. On the 27th or 8th day of the twelfth lunar month, the shop has finished sweeping the dust, hung up new peach talismans, and sent out the reward money, so it is ready to close, and it will only open after the fifth day of the new year.

Shen Shaoguang stood at the door and said goodbye to the vegetable and meat sellers: "The Chinese New Year is coming, and the Langjun's family has a long life and good health."

Vegetable and butcher also crossed their hands and saluted, smiling and wishing: "Little lady is blessed with longevity and well-being", "The wine shop business is booming".

Pastry hearts, let's take them home and give sweet mouths to the little ones. This is the politeness and humanity of the little people in the market.

The delivery date was agreed again after the year, and Shen Shaoguang watched them leave.

Shen Ji Distillery was also opened on the last day of the year. Yu San brought A Chang to move vegetables and chop meat. It should be sized well, and it should be frozen outside. Save it for Chinese New Year and after the New Year.

A Yuan was on the side, waiting to make a handmade banner and write a peach symbol for Shen Shaoguang.

This flag is not a spring flag with gold ornaments on its head, but a flag that hangs in the yard on the first day of the new year. It is made of blue cloth, which means welcoming spring. Shen Shaoguang's needlework skills are average, but he can make do with a streamer.

As for writing peach characters, they are better at it.

"Take away the peach amulet of Qiu's family in Tofufang?" Shen Shaoguang asked A Yuan while sewing.

"Take it. I took it this morning, and I also gave a box of spiced dried bean curd as a thank you."

Shen Shaoguang said with a smile, "Go back and fry it with bacon and drink it."

There are many people asking for it, and the master is impatient. First, there are many scholars who are disgusted with writing this vulgarity. Flat-headed commoners and small businessmen can't read the font or the quality of the characters, but Lady Shen is good at talking...

Shen Shaoguang felt that the lottery booth he had been thinking about could increase the service of writing peach characters and painting door gods, and there was a bonus of magic sticks, so the business must be good.

Yu San passed by here, glanced at Chunfan with thick needles and large threads under Shen Shaoguang, and laughed.

A Yuan glared at him, "What are you laughing at? You still can't sew!"

Shen Shaoguang nodded vigorously, Ah Yuan refuted it well! Should be adding chicken thighs at noon today.

Yu San with a smile on his face, took the iron hook to the yard to freeze the meat.

The bell on the door of the shop rang, Shen Shaoguang wondered, just now there are customers coming to drink? Could it be that he is here again to ask for a peach talisman?

The felt door curtain was lifted, and a girl came in, wearing a Hu clothing and riding outfit, holding a horse whip in her hand, followed by a maid guard, Shen Shaoguang was stunned, this is really not here to ask for a peach amulet .

Shen Shaoguang put down the needle and thread, stood up to welcome the guests: "Lady, please sit inside."

The female customer looked at Shen Shaoguang, glanced at the store again, and handed the whip to the maid, "This is it."

One of the two guards behind her saluted and walked out.

Shen Shaoguang brought out the red dates and wolfberry drink on a tray, and said with a smile: "Lady, please drink a drink to warm up."

The maid next to the female guest took the tray, glanced at the drink in doubt, and placed it on the food table in front of the host.

The female guest was not particular, she took a sip and raised her eyebrows, "Well, it tastes good!"

Shen Shaoguang smiled and thanked him. In fact, this drink was not so sweet. Knowing this one's taste, he added honey to it.

Shen Shaoguang presented the menu and wondered why this New Year's Eve came to the small restaurant - the princess is also willing to take a private visit to the public? Just like the deputy mayor who is keen on happiness surveys, he can be rated as one of the top ten people who moved the Tang Dynasty.

Thinking of the vice mayor, Shen Shaoguang suddenly thought of Pang Erniang and Qin Wuniang, and then he couldn't help but scatter, could it be, could it be that this is also Lin Shaoyin's peach blossom?

"I heard that this hot pot came from a wine shop in Chongxianfang. Could it be your restaurant?" Princess Fuhui pointed at the menu and asked.

Shen Shaoguang smiled and said, "It's really a small shop. Would you like a pot to try, girl?"

Elder Princess Fuhui was interested, "Okay! Let's have one of each kind. Look at the meat and vegetables."

Shen Shaoguang smiled apologetically, "There are seven or eight kinds of pots in the small shop, and they all come up. It's so foggy in this room that it stains the clothes of the distinguished guests. I'm afraid it's indecent. Moruo come first. Milk soup? There are a lot of things that can be rinsed, and the taste is good." Although the shopkeepers are not afraid of pot-bellied men, it is always bad to spoil things. Outside the imperial city has its own rules outside the imperial city.

Shen Shaoguang's excuse was really good, thinking of his flesh... Princess Fuhui nodded, "Alright, let's do as you said."

Shen Shaoguang stepped back with a smile, and no little lady was willing to dip into the rich hot pot flavor, read the news in the previous life, and the girls wore raincoats to eat pot to keep out the hot pot gas.

When Pei Fei came in, he saw Princess Fuhui sitting in front of the food table, a copper hot pot was steaming hot, next to two other food tables full of meat and vegetables, a maid She was serving her, fetching meat from a bowl, while Shen Ji's little lady was simmering wine.

Pei Fei smiled bitterly in her heart, and went up to greet her. Because the princess was wearing a small dress, she was only called "Liu Niang" - Princess Fuhui, Xingliu.

"As soon as I guessed, I knew that Pei Lang came to Lin Shaoyin in Chongxian Square again, so he came to wait." Princess Fuhui smiled and said, and pointed to the position opposite her to let Pei Fei sits.

Shen Shaoguang had never seen this peach-eyed and romantic Pei Lang show such a helpless expression.

Pei Fei sat down beside the food table opposite Princess Fuhui, and Shen Shaoguang thoughtfully set a pot for him.

"I tasted the meatballs well, and the little lady in the shop gave Pei Lang a copy too!"

Shen Shaoguang really gave Pei Fei a copy.

"This tofu is also good, why are there so many holes?"

"This is frozen tofu." Shen Shaoguang replied.

"This one is full of soup and tastes good."

Shen Shaoguang also served Pei Fei a plate.

"This meatball is actually two layers..."

"What is this, crunchy, chewy..."

Shen Shaoguang added vegetables to Pei Fei the same way. After a while, Pei Fei couldn't let go of the food table in front of him, and also placed two other food tables next to him for rinsing.

Looking at the eldest princess eating comfortably and the busy owner Shen, Pei Fei broke the jar and ate it with chopsticks.

Unfortunately, Pei Fei didn't take two bites, so the princess stopped her chopsticks, wiped her mouth with the silk handkerchief handed by her maid, and waved to Shen Shaoguang again. Shen Shaoguang hurried forward with A Yuan, took down the food table with the pot, set up another table, put a glass of drink, and then with a wink, hid in the kitchen and pretended that it didn't exist.

"Pei Lang wants to come to understand what I mean, I wonder if he is willing?"

Pei Fei felt bitter in his heart, and bitter in his mouth, and was thinking about the words, Princess Fuhui continued to speak, "If you want, you want, if you don't want to, you don't want to, why bother to hide, do Little girl?"

Pei Fei blushed, stood up and saluted, said solemnly: "I don't want to."

The eldest princess raised her eyebrows to look at him, her eyes swept over Pei Fei's handsome face, shoulders, waist, and long legs, and sighed faintly, "That's it..."

Pei Fei didn't expect Princess Fuhui to be "just" so easily, she was a little stunned.

Elder Princess Fuhui stood up, and Shen Shaoguang hurriedly came out of the kitchen to send them off.

"Are you willing to be a cook in the Princess Chang's residence? You don't need to change your slave status. If you want to leave, just say it."

Shen Shaoguang hurriedly saluted: "Thanks to the praise of the nobles, but the people of the countryside are used to freedom, and I am afraid that they will not be able to serve the nobles." The nonsense is very sincere.

The eldest princess looked at Shen Shaoguang and sighed again, "It's okay, it's just rare to have such a heart with me." As she said that, she took off a pair of inlaid gold armbands on her wrists and handed them over To Shen Shaoguang.

Shen Shaoguang took it with both hands: "The gift from the noble is too precious."

Elder Princess Fuhui smiled, "The right to be the meal." She said and walked out.

Standing at the door, looking at the back of the horse riding away, Shen Shaoguang touched the gemstone inlaid on the armband in his sleeve, feeling full of emotion: I originally thought that Li Bai exchanged the "five-flowered horse and a thousand gold furs" The wine is just an artistic exaggeration, and it seems that it may be true... The eldest princess is so majestic, so heroic, so attractive!

Shen Shaoguang turned his head sideways, facing the pair of peach blossom eyes. Pei Fei smiled a little relieved and a little helpless.

Shen Shaoguang also smiled back at him, and then asked solemnly, "Lang Jun, go in and eat?"

Pei Fei felt that this little lady Shen's serious look was exactly the same as Lin Yan, and she hated it.

Pei Fei turned away. Although Shen Shaoguang didn't know him well, he was sure that he wasn't really angry, and walked back to the store with a smile.

On the last day of this year, Shen Shaoguang thought it was a good sign!

Speaking of which I was a little surprised to see Princess Fuhui today. Although this princess did not come from the same mother today, she was quite respectable in the palace. The consort she chose was not bad at first, but unfortunately she was seriously injured during the expedition against Tubo, but it was more than a dead man.

For a few years, the eldest princess took good care of her concubine, but she did not delay in finding a suitable young man.

It is said that the empress dowager and saints in the palace persuaded her, the eldest princess said, "The concubine is loyal to the country, I will naturally try my best to take care of him." As for the young man, "But I can't lose yourself..."

The eldest princess is still doing her own way, and the queen mother and the emperor will not persuade them.

Thinking about Mrs. Chu of that day, thinking about Mrs. Li Liuli today, and thinking about the attitudes and practices of the two about love and marriage, Shen Shaoguang felt something different.

Hey, what are you thinking about? New Years, New Years! After sending off a few diners at noon, the store was cleaned up, Shen Shaoguang greeted Yu San'ayuan to close the door, and we had an annual holiday!
