The Miracle Doctor’s Two-Faced Toddler

Chapter 14 【】Shocking everyone

After coming out of Baiyulou, Yu Feng was in a bad mood.

Baiyulou confiscated their meal money, and they saved three taels of silver. If they could go to the mountain again tomorrow, they would have two taels of silver.

Yu Feng planned this way, even so, he still felt that the price of fifteen taels was too high, but he absolutely underestimated this girl's courage.

"Fifty taels...you...what do you think!"

...

"Yeah, fifty taels, what do you think!" Bai Yulou, the shopkeeper also complained to Miss Bai, "Saline is not so expensive!"

Miss Bai glared at him angrily: "Then you bought it for me!"

The shopkeeper choked.

Tribute salt is something that only royal residences and imperial palaces can eat. These merchants have no way to see it, let alone buy it.

Yu Wan first went to the market to buy gauze and dozens of catties of soybeans, and then she and Yu Feng returned to the village with two large barrels of salt.

After arriving home, Yu Wan plunged into the kitchen.

Only then did Yu Feng understand why she made him carry so much water and chop so much firewood.

Yu Wan first boiled a large pot of hot water, and poured all the salt from the first wooden bucket into it: "Brother, is there a mill in the old house? Can you help me grind soybeans into soy milk?"

Yu Feng didn't ask why, and went without saying anything.

The unpalatable ancient salt is mainly because it contains too many impurities. As long as these impurities are removed, the taste can be raised to a new level. This is easy to say, but it is a time-consuming and labor-intensive technical task.

After Yu Wan boiled the salt, she filtered it once with gauze. At this time, the coarser impurities were filtered out, but there were more delicate impurities, so she needed to use other media.

Yu Wan poured the filtered brine (salt) water back into the pot.

"Here comes the soybean juice!" Yu Feng walked in carrying two large buckets of soybean juice.

Yu Wan poured the raw soy milk into the brine, and after a while, dregs floated up, Yu Wan scooped out the tumbling dregs, poured the raw soy milk again, and repeated this three or five times until there was no more dirt in the brine At this time, the color of the brine has become very clear, and the weight has been reduced by half.

Yu Feng was dumbfounded looking at the brine in the pot. He never knew that soybean juice could be used like this...

Yu Wan took a breath slightly: "When the water in the pot evaporates, the salt will come out."

It was freezing cold, but fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. Yu Feng's expression was slightly complicated, and he wanted to find something to wipe off her sweat, but he was not a delicate little girl, and he would carry a bag with him. handkerchief.

He squeezed his sleeves, it's, it's still clean...

Without waiting for him to move, Yu Wan put down the lid of the pot and said, "Brother, help me take a look, I'll go and bring Tie Dan back."

Yu Feng hurriedly put down his stiff arm: "Understood, you can go."

Yu Wan went to her uncle's house and brought back Tiedan, who was sweating profusely from playing, and gave him a bath, as well as Mrs. Jiang. After Xiao Tiedan fell asleep, Yu Wan went back to to the stove.

There is still a lot of salt that Miss Bai gave her, and it can't be cooked in one pot.

Yu Feng stayed behind to help. The brother and sister worked hard until dawn, and finally succeeded in purifying all the salt.

The two didn't care about rest, so they hurriedly rented an ox cart in the village and sent the salt to Baiyulou.

Baitang has been waiting in the lobby early, fifty taels is not a small amount, yesterday she made the decision because of his father's absence, but now her father is on his way back, if she knew that she would take fifty taels I bought a salt that I don't know if I can make it...

Baitang didn't dare to think about it anymore!

After the table salt was purified, the large and irregular pieces of bluish-gray salt turned into small crystal clear salt grains, and the weight also shrunk by more than half.

The shopkeeper couldn't help frowning: "How come there are so few? Is this salt?"

The cooks of Baiyulou also surrounded him, among them was Master Lu who had met Yu Wan in the market.

Master Lu has never seen such salt.

However, he recognized Yu Wan, the little girl who even made fish soup wrong.

Would such a person know how to make salt?

He sneered.

The rest of the cooks laughed too.

Only Baitang didn't smile.

Baitang is not a little merchant girl who has never seen the world. The world only knows that her father is a merchant, but they don't know that her mother was originally a lady in the capital. When she returned to Ning with her mother, she really saw this snowflake-like salt with her own eyes. , personally tasted.

When Yu Wan put the grain of salt in front of her, she was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

It is unknown whether I was surprised to see snowflake salt again in my lifetime, or was surprised that a village girl actually made snowflake salt.

But it’s just that things are similar, and the taste may be a thousand miles away!

Baitang glanced at Yu Wan arrogantly: "My ugly words are up front, if the taste doesn't satisfy me, I won't even give you a copper coin!"

Yu Wan smiled lightly: "Okay."

"What's good? Be careful, she reneges on the debt." Yu Feng said lightly.

Bai Tang swung the knife over with a sharp glance: "Who repudiated the debt?!"

Yu Feng was too lazy to talk to her.

Baitang gritted her teeth angrily, not for the sake of so many grains of salt, she threw this annoying guy out now!

The cook of Baiyulou used Yu Wan's salt to make a home-cooked dish - braised pork with cabbage.

In the past, in order to suppress the astringent taste in the salt, they needed to add a lot of sauce, and then add a little sugar to enhance the freshness. Today, they deliberately made things difficult for Yu Wan, so they only put salt, but no one expected that the fried The cabbage is actually sweeter than ever before. This sweet taste penetrates into the pork belly, which perfectly removes the greasy taste of fat meat; the meat of lean meat is more tender, but it is not at all firewood. It melts in the mouth as soon as it is sucked. , mouth full of oil.

Bai Tang originally thought that no matter how good the taste was, he would have to pretend to be unpalatable, so that he could lower the price with her, but she couldn't stop eating...

"Miss Bai is still satisfied?" Yu Wan looked at the plate that Bai Tang ate to the point that there was not even a crumb left, and asked with crooked eyes.

Baitang rubbed his stomach and hiccupped.

Uh... Is it too late to say that you are not satisfied now?

...

The two brothers and sisters went to the pharmacy with the banknotes.

How did the clerk in the pharmacy expect that the two of them really got all the money together? He had already sent someone to the Yamen to report to the official, so he hurriedly asked an errand runner to chase the man back.

"I said, the origin of your bank note is not unknown, is it?" the man asked suspiciously.

I really don't blame him for being careless, but this family started to see a doctor with him two years ago. He knows the situation of their family very well. If he really has the ability to earn money, he will not be in arrears to this day.

Yu Wan smiled: "Little brother, please don't worry, every penny of the money we earn is clean."

She was so pleasant that it made the man ashamed.

The guy coughed lightly: "You wait, I will return the IOU to you right now."
