Jiang Yanyi was so tormented by the wind and cold that he drank the terribly bitter "medicine" for several days, but he was still top-heavy and had no appetite.

Feng Shuo is in good health, so he just sneezed a few times the day before, and after taking a dose of medicine, all his problems disappeared.

After he learned that Jiang Yanyi was ill, he sent a doctor from the family over to give Jiang Yanyi a pulse and prescribe medicine, but unfortunately there was still no improvement.

The cycle of colds in later generations is usually seven days, and Jiang Yanyi only hopes that he will get better in two days.

Chu Shubao has come to her shop and started selling rouge and gouache, but the business is not as good as expected. Firstly, there are not many female customers in the shop. With the servant girls following her, she is very on guard, and will not easily try things of unknown origin.

Chu Shubao was a little frustrated, seeing that the business couldn't be done, she spent most of her time in Jiang Yanyi's room to accompany her.

Jiang Yanyi's shortcoming in maintenance and makeup is that she can't give any useful advice technically, but she can also provide Chu Shubao with some ideas after seeing many beauty bloggers in the future.

Feng Shuo heard that Jiang Yanyi was not getting better after contracting the cold, so Aunt Guo asked a female doctor to give her scraping therapy.

Jiang Yanyi's "grandmother" used to be a barefoot doctor. When she was sick when she was a child, her "grandmother" scraped her, but the neck was scraped. The darker the color.

When the female doctor scraped Jiang Yanyi, Jiang Yan thought that he would go back to business when the cold was gone, and he was afraid that he would not be able to see people with the scars all over his neck, so he asked the female doctor to scrape his back.

Aunt Guo was afraid that she would be cold, so she added a few more charcoal basins to the room.

Jiang Yanyi was lying on the mattress, wearing only an apricot hoodie.The doors and windows in the room were closed tightly, and the light was a bit dim, but her entire back was still so white that it shone, and her skin was tender and delicate, like milk.

It is often said that beauty is in the bone but not in the skin. This bone, not only the bone of the face, but also the skeleton of the body, people with good clothes look better than others.

Jiang Yanyi was tall and slender, but not big-boned, so he was just right no matter where he was.

The female doctor is an elderly woman. She traveled all over the world in the early years and met many beauties. She has not seen many beauties like Jiang Yanyi with excellent bone and skin.Not to mention men in the world, even a woman like her can't help feeling a little pity.

There was wine warming in the small stove next to it, and when the wine was hot, she put some on her hands and rubbed Jiang Yanyi's back, "Scraping for a while will hurt a bit, girl, bear with it."

Jiang Yanyi rested his chin on his folded hands, because he was sick and his energy was not good, he looked a little weak: "Thank you, doctor."

The female doctor dipped the scraping board in wine, and scraped on Jiang Yanyi's snow-white back. It seemed that there was no way to do it, but each stroke followed the meridians and acupoints.

Jiang Yanyi could bear it at first, but her back tensed from the pain.

Aunt Guo watched from the side, knowing that she was in pain, and comforted her: "The place where I shaved just now has developed Sha, after the shaving, the wind and cold will be cured, my boss just bear with it."

Turning around, he said to the female doctor, "Please trouble Doctor Fang to be more gentle."

The female doctor's surname is Fang?

For a moment, Jiang Yanyi seemed to think of something, but the pain from her back disrupted her thoughts again.

Jiang Yanyi had no choice but to talk to Aunt Guo about something else to divert his attention: "You have been helping in the kitchen these few days, but did you find someone running on okra?"

Aunt Guo said: "The new ones are all willing to do things down-to-earth, and they don't seem to have any problems with the gumbo. I even asked them insinuatingly, and they get along well with the gumbo."

The feeling of repeatedly scraping an area with the scraping board was a little uncomfortable, as if it was trying to scrape off that layer of skin, Jiang Yanyi grinned in pain: "Where's the new waiter?"

Aunt Guo said: "That's a clever one, calling each sister Qiukui one by one, and it doesn't seem to be targeting Qiukui."

With such a result, Jiang Yanyi couldn't figure it out even if he was thinking about it.

The effect of scraping was still very significant, and Jiang Yanyi felt dizzy and heavy in the afternoon that night.

After cheering up and looking at the income of the noodle shop, I found that the profit of the noodle shop has already caught up with the antique soup shop. In the past two days, I have also received several large orders from caravans. Jiang Yanyi is really pleasantly surprised extremely.

During the days when she was sick, the kitchen was supported by Chef Yao. The chickens that Chen Guogong ordered to kill were cooked by Chef Yao and sold as special dishes, so as not to be wasted.In the shop outside, Yang Xiu can also be alone.

Jiang Yanyi decided to cook a delicious meal for everyone, as a way to comfort them for their hard work.

There were all kinds of chicken, duck and fish in the kitchen, but to her surprise, there was a large piece of beef, which weighed about ten catties.After asking Chef Yao, he learned that the cattle raised by a farmer slipped on the ice and broke his leg. He could no longer plow the land, so he sent them to the government to be slaughtered. A few catties of beef.

The ancients mostly paid attention to stewing beef and mutton, eating one original flavor.

Jiang Yanyi cut a catty of beef, sliced ​​it into thin slices, wrapped it with coriander, and "inserted" it with bamboo sticks to make coriander beef.

She has always been generous to the people in the store when it comes to eating, and she cooks herself, so there is never a time when she doesn't see meat.But if Jiang Yanyi was not around, and when Chef Yao was in charge of cooking for the people in the restaurant, perhaps Chef Li had told him that he would pick and search for oil and meat, as if he was afraid that a group of people would eat Jiang Yanyi poorly.

Therefore, every time Jiang Yanyi said that he would cook for himself, the new guys in the store were as happy as if they were about to celebrate the New Year.

Jiang Yanyi's wind and cold are just right, and Aunt Guo doesn't let her touch the cold ones. Aunt Guo does all the washing and cutting of vegetables.

Jiang Yanyi took okra and others to skewer the prepared ingredients with bamboo sticks.

When the antique shop first opened, Jiang Yanyi peeled off a lot of spare bamboo sticks in order to attract customers to grill skewers in the street, and now they are all in use.

The old people in the shop thought that Jiang Yanyi was going to roast meat, so they were very happy and worked quickly.

Only the three newcomers haven't tasted Jiang Yanyi's grilled skewers, but with Jiang Yanyi's skills in cooking other dishes, and the excitement of the old people in the shop, they also guessed that tonight will be another delicious meal of.

Yang Xiu said very consciously: "Boss, let me go and clean up the grill, and light the charcoal first?"

Jiang Yanyi knew that they probably misunderstood, and said with a smile: "We won't eat roasted meat tonight, let's eat skewers."

"What's a skewer?" Okra asked while skewering slices of lotus root.

Jiang Yanyi explained to them: "It is to put the food skewered on the bamboo sticks into the pot and cook. When eating, just pick up the bamboo sticks and eat them, or you can dip them in the dish."

Chuan Chuan Xiang is another form of hot pot, and Jiang Yanyi plans to cook the bottom of the pot directly with the old hot pot recipe.

The ancients seldom eat spicy food. The spicy hot pot currently launched in her restaurant uses cornel as the bottom material. It doesn’t even reach the level of spicy pepper, but it has already made many diners shake their heads and say it’s spicy.

At the beginning, Chef Yao discussed with Jiang Yanyi, saying that there should be less dogwood, otherwise the pot would not be easy to sell, but those diners who were shaken their heads by the heat a few days ago seemed to know the taste like a marrow, and it didn't take long for them to eat again. I came to the store, and I want to order another spicy cornel pot that I ate last time.

Slowly, the spicy pot has become a major feature of Jiang Yanyi's antique soup shop. After all, I have never seen such a nondescript pot in other places.

There are still people who can make clear soup pots. The spicy pot uses more than [-] spices for the base. The chef of Laifu Antique Soup Shop has eaten it himself, and he can't taste all the ingredients in it with his tongue. What kind of seasonings are there? What seasonings are added first, and then the eyes are smeared, and I can only give up resentfully by following her way of selling spicy pot.

When skewering beef with coriander, Jiang Yan realized that there seemed to be sour cowpeas in the kimchi jar, so he asked Okra to fetch some.

She cut the sour cowpea into small pieces as long as her thumb, wrapped two sections of cowpea with the cut beef, and skewered them with bamboo sticks.

The sour cowpea beef is boiled, sour and spicy, with a unique flavor.

When picking boneless chicken feet with a knife, she felt that the kitchen knife was extraordinarily sharp. She praised: "The knife made by a blacksmith is really easy to use. After so long, it is as sharp as when it was first sharpened."

The new cook is a hard-working old woman, surnamed An, recognizable by a large mole on the side of her mouth. Hearing this, she smiled and glanced at the okra: "The blacksmith comes to the shop every now and then to help grind it. What about the knife! How can you not hurry up."

Okra buried herself in her own work and ignored Mrs. An.

Jiang Yanyi was thinking that this matter might have something to do with Qiukui's abnormality, but before she could ask, the new waiter came in from the outside and said to Qiukui, "Sister Qiukui, that woman is here to look for you again .”

When Qiukui heard this, he accidentally stabbed his own hand when stringing the sticks.

Jiang Yanyi asked her, "What's wrong?"

Okra seemed to be trying to hide something: "It's nothing, I'll go out for a while."

Seeing that Qiukui went out with a lot of worries, Jiang Yanyi asked the waiter: "What's going on?"

The waiter scratched his head and said, "This... I don't know either. A few days ago when you went back to Chu's house, a woman came to the store to look for Sister Qiukui. She claimed to be Sister Qiukui's aunt, but When I asked Sister Qiukui, Sister Qiukui said no."

Jiang Yanyi wiped her hands on the apron: "I'll go out and have a look."

Jiang Yan realized that there was no one in the store outside, so he opened the bamboo curtain to block the wind, only to find that Okra and the woman were tugging outside. The woman was wearing coarse clothes, with a strong body and high cheekbones. With a pair of hanging eyes, it is not a good match at first glance. One hand is holding the arm of okra, and the other hand is pinching the tender meat of okra's waist.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Yanyi shouted.

Seeing that she was well dressed, the woman probably was the proprietress of this antique soup shop, so she let go of her hand, put away her fierce face, and changed into a smiling face: "Are you the proprietor of this shop? I am this girl's." Aunt, her uncle is seriously ill, and wants to take her back to see her uncle, but who knows that this girl will refuse."

The place where Okra's waist was pinched by the "woman" was still painful. She was afraid that Jiang Yanyi would misunderstand, so she retorted almost immediately: "He is not sick!"

The woman gouged out the okra and said, "You damn girl, your conscience has been bitten by a dog? You have been missing all these years, and he has been suffering from sudden illness! I am looking forward to seeing you now."

Afraid of being taken away, Okra said angrily, "You're lying! You just want to betray me again!"

The woman made a gesture to hit the okra: "You don't want to go back with me to see your uncle, but you can even say such unconscionable words!"

Jiang Yanyi pulled the okra behind her: "I bought her back. Ma'am, just say what you say. If you do something, I will sue the government."

The "woman" quickly smiled at Jiang Yanyi again: "I'm all angry at this damn girl, why do you think she lied and became "sex"?"

It would be strange for Okra to lie.

Jiang Yanyi's tone was polite, but his words were not polite: "I bought the okra from Xizhou Daying, why did she enter that kind of place, ma'am, do you really not know, or do you not know? Trafficking in human beings shall be executed according to the law!"

The "woman" lost her composure a lot, and said awkwardly: "I am her aunt, how could I do such a thing as betraying my niece."

Jiang Yanyi said: "Liangjiazi sold himself as a slave, and there is a record in the government. Where he sold it and who he handled it is recorded."

When the woman heard what Jiang Yanyi said, she didn't seem to have any fear, and she even yelled: "She lost herself back then, and was coaxed back by the old bustard of Hualou to sign the contract of sale. It doesn't matter!"

It seems that in all likelihood, she tricked Okra into signing a deed of sale, took the money and picked herself clean, so she was so confident.

Jiang Yanyi was not angry, but smiled at her instead: "You also know that Okra's deed of sale is now in my hands, and it's up to me whether to let her go back or not."

The woman was furious at Jiang Yanyi's words.

Seeing that Jiang Yanyi had been out for so long and hadn't come in, Yang Xiu and the waiter also followed outside.

The woman saw two men coming out of the store, one of them had a fierce look on her face, and knowing that she couldn't please her, she immediately stopped arguing with Jiang Yanyi, and said viciously to Okra, "You give me Wait," and left with a disheartened face.

Jiang Yanyi brought the okra into the store, found a secluded place, and asked her, "Why didn't your aunt come to you before and tell me?"

Qiukui has red eyes, like a child who has done something wrong: "Huahua is busy, I don't want to cause trouble for Huahua."

Jiang Yanyi sighed, and said, "In the future, if you encounter such a thing, you must tell me as soon as possible, you understand?"

Aunt Qiukui is a hot-headed person at first glance, with sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and Qiukui has a stupid mouth, even if she is reasonable, she can't win her aunt.

Okra nodded obediently.

Jiang Yanyi asked again: "Why is she looking for you?"

Her aunt went back to see her uncle one by one, but Qiukui said that her uncle was not sick, and Jiang Yanyi was more inclined to lie to Aunt Qiukui, but Jiang Yanyi had the contract of sale of Qiukui in her hands, so she took Qiukui So what if Aoi coaxes her back?
