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

In the end, Niu Niu arrived home holding the corner of her mother's clothes.

Zhang Yuniang 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, you go and 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 for advice?"

Niu Niu 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."

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

The paper was obviously old and had suffered many twists and turns before it took on the vicissitudes of life it has now.

Gu Mingda glanced at it casually. When he looked 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 big black 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 answered 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 it’s all nonsense, either limericks or numbers. Could it be that there’s really some amazing secret recipe?”

Gu Mingda said: "This piece of paper is written in 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... It's not safe for you, a weak woman, to go out alone. That's all. I will accompany you again after the trial in our hospital is over." Go buy it.”

Zhang Yunniang didn't force him to make the finished product according to the recipe immediately. Now there are many people living in this house. If the recipe is learned by others, it will be too late to regret.

Zhang Guangzong and his wife in the backyard started to quarrel again.

Zhang Guangzong looked at the bowl of meat soup and a bowl of rice on the table, and his face was immediately displeased. He said: "Are you a mill? You only know how to turn after pushing it. You only prepare meat soup when I say meat soup, and you don't even know to buy some green leaves?"

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

Xiao Cai shrank her neck in fear and said: "No... no money to buy vegetables..."

Zhang Guangzong's dissatisfaction reached its peak immediately: "I gave you so much money, how did you spend it so quickly? How do you manage the family, you spendthrift woman!"

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

It would have been better if she didn't explain. After the explanation, Zhang Guangzong was so angry that he slapped the table.

"Useless thing, a beggar can cheat you out of your money! Twenty coins can buy a pound of meat, and you just let him cheat you!" Zhang Guangzong cursed.

Little Cai explained weakly: "Husband, I asked that old beggar to cheat Zhang Yunniang... She must have suffered a loss..."

After hearing this, Zhang Guangzong's anger subsided a little and said, "You are still useful."

Little Cai said again: "But I really have no money on me now, and I don't know how to buy vegetables tomorrow."

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

Little Cai looked at the little money and said with a bitter face: "Husband, buying vegetables and meat in the city is expensive, I'm afraid I can't eat anything good with this money ..."

Zhang Guangzong slapped her and said, "If you can't eat it, don't eat it! Spendthrift woman, no amount of money will be enough for you to spend!"

Xiao Cai was hit again. She covered her face and was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said, "Husband, do you still remember the family next door to the inn we stayed in before?"

When mentioning the inn they stayed in before, Zhang Guangzong's heart was surging, and he wanted to slap Xiao Cai again, but he still held back and asked, "The family that raised a stupid son?"

Xiao Cai nodded and said, "Their family is in need of a child bride, and the people in the city are generous and willing to give this amount."

Xiao Cai gestured a "ten".

Ten taels of silver is nothing in the city, but it can solve the urgent needs of the couple.

Xiao Cai continued, "Niuniu has been raised by Zhang Yunniang and her husband for so long, she is white and tender, and looks like the fairy child in the New Year picture. The parents of the idiot must be satisfied, and we may be able to raise the price. "
