After breakfast, song Xintong went back to song's home.

At the end of Mo Yue Chen's time, Jiang Mingzhao couldn't wait to drive a carriage to Taohua village. First he went to the Lu family, and then he rushed to the Song family.

Jiang Mingzhao drank the coarse tea and frowned: "the tea here is not very good. A few days ago, I sent a box of pre rain tea to Yunkai. Why didn't I bring it to drink?"

Song Xintong sipped a mouthful of tartary buckwheat tea, with a faint smell of wheat, which was very fresh. "It's normal for Mr. Jiang not to drink this kind of food and not to like it. This kind of tea is very common in our countryside, with low price and good quality."

"Oh? How to make things beautiful? " Restraining his impatience, Jiang Mingzhao asked,

"It is recorded in medical books that tartary buckwheat is bitter in taste, cold in nature, beneficial to Qi, spirit, ears and eyes, and has the function of reducing Qi, widening intestines and strengthening stomach." After a pause, song Xintong said in Vernacular: "it can clear away heat and reduce fire, eliminate food and remove stagnation, cool blood and detumescence, beautify and nourish the face, soften blood vessels, and resist aging."

"So many effects?" Jiang Mingzhao was so surprised that he took another sip of the cup. After the bitter taste, it was a faint smell of wheat. It was a little sweet, and it was not so hard to swallow. "I didn't expect that my sister-in-law was so talented. I admire her."

Song Xintong said with a smile, "drinking this kind of tea has an excellent health effect. It can not only clear away heat and reduce fire, but also reduce swelling. It's much better than asking a doctor to prescribe medicine. It's the third poison of medicine, or it's healthy to drink tea."

"Brother and sister have a point." Jiang Mingzhao smiles. "I don't know if there are such things here..."

"Tartary buckwheat tea."

"Yes, but also this kind of tartary buckwheat tea?" Jiang Mingzhao asked.

Song Xintong turned to look at the Daya waiting on one side, "do you still have tartary buckwheat tea at home?"

"Girl, there are not many. There are only a few left." Da Ya replied.

Song Xintong apologized with Jiang Mingzhao and said, "if Mr. Jiang wants this tea, I can ask Daya to buy some in the village."

Jiang Mingzhao lost a ingot of ten Liang silver on the table, "I'm sorry to trouble my sister-in-law."

Da Ya took the silver, "girl, I've gone to the village."

Jiang Mingzhao put down his tea cup and said, "I have discussed with my sister-in-law yesterday, and I have agreed to the three shops. Is this the title deed?"

Song Xintong took out the title deed and handed it to Jiang Mingzhao. At the same time, there was a document. He said with some embarrassment: "this was written by Xianggong this morning. Xianggong said that although Jianggong was a person who knew the etiquette and kept his promise, the others were not, so..."

Jiang Mingzhao looks at the handwriting on the document. It's really Lu Yunkai. His eyebrows are twitching. It's just that his second brother made nearly 100 liang of profits the year before last. How can he remember it for such a long time?

He sighed helplessly, "well, if I can't cash it, then I'll take it to Lingnan city to find me."

"My husband and I believe in Mr. Jiang." Song Xintong took back the signed document and said with a smile.

Jiang Mingzhao looks at her actions of collecting books. Do you still believe him?

"I heard that my sister-in-law and Jixiang restaurant had done business?" After Song Xintong and his wife left yesterday, Jiang Mingzhao sent someone to check. Unexpectedly, this younger sister has such a good mind in business. The red shrimp and all kinds of fresh food in the Xu restaurant are all from this younger sister.

Although the main industry of the Jiang family is not restaurant business, looking at the booming business of the Xu family, my heart is also envious. If only I could get these businesses in my hands, they have also been experimented before. The shrimp and snails they can make are always not delicious, and they are not as delicious as the lucky restaurant.

Song Xintong said, "I used to send food to restaurants when I didn't have enough food and clothing."

Jiang Mingzhao pretended to be surprised and said: "I once ate several dishes in a restaurant, but later they were all gone. I wonder if I can have another one here today?"

Song Xintong looks at Jiang Mingzhao suspiciously, but she doesn't believe that such an aristocratic childe can't eat what she wants. She politely refuses: "I don't have many dishes here."

"It doesn't matter. On my way here, I heard villagers say that the next few acres of shrimp fields belong to my sister-in-law's family. It doesn't matter if there are other dishes. Just have these shrimps." Jiang Mingzhao said to himself, "I've been intoxicated with this shrimp since I ate it in Jixiang restaurant. But I'm not good at shelling shrimp. I don't know what good method my younger sister and brother have here."

"In that case, I'll send someone to fish for shrimp."

"Better have that snail." Jiang Mingzhao thought about it and got up. "I'll go with them and see how they make shrimp."

Song Xintong's eyebrows and eyes are puffed. This person is beating around the Bush to find out how to wash shrimp. It's really enough. What friends do you make, Lu Yunkai? I'm not honest at all. Can't I pay for it?

But she is not easy to say this. After all, this man and Lu Yunkai are still friends. Yesterday, Lu Yunkai handed in several thousand taels of silver notes to her. "Uncle Yang, take Mr. Jiang to catch a few Jin of shrimp and snails."

Poplar respectfully said: "girl, yesterday little boys wanted to eat shrimp. They fished more than 20 jin and put them in the kitchen. They didn't have to go to the shrimp field to fish them. Besides, they cleaned them up. They just made them later."

Song Xintong chuckled unkindly, "since that's the case, Mr. Jiang might as well sit here for a while and wait for my husband to come and have a drink with you?"

Jiang Mingzhao nodded helplessly, "in that case, it's troublesome for younger brothers and sisters."

It was still early, and Jiang Mingzhao couldn't sit still. He led the boy to Houshan, which is called hunting.

At about a quarter to three in the afternoon, Lu Yunkai came with the twins and looked into the hall. He didn't see Jiang Mingzhao's figure. "Xintong, where is he?"

"I went hunting in the back mountain." Song Xintong looked out of the house, "didn't my mother come?"

"I can't tell you."

Song Xintong is about to go out.

Lu Yunkai quickly pulled people, "Xintong, don't go."

"The room is still busy." Song Xintong broke Lu Yunkai's hand and was about to go out.

"Xintong, yesterday was wrong, in fact..." Lu Yunkai was about to speak, and Jiang Mingzhao led the people to come in, "Oh, it's really bad. Before, brother Lu, I disturbed you to talk with your sister-in-law."

Song Xintong took the opportunity to take back his hand, "Xianggong, you have dinner with Mr. Jiang first, and I'll go out first."

Then he walked out of the flower hall.

Jiang Mingzhao ate shrimp and some fresh vegetables. "Yunkai, you are so lucky that you can marry such an exquisite person as sister-in-law."

Lu Yun opened his chopsticks and said, "why do you say that?"

Jiang Mingzhao did not laugh.

Lu Yunkai frowned, "when will we sail?"

"Early April." Jiang Mingzhao said: "I see that there are some tartary buckwheat tea and other things here, which can be used to go out to sea. At that time, the price will be doubled."

Lu Yunkai naturally knows, "I'll be ready. Thank you."

"Why are we so polite?" Jiang Mingzhao laughed, "if only my sister-in-law could give me the recipe for shrimp, but I tried and was bypassed by her."

"She has cooperation with the auspicious restaurant. Don't interfere."

"I understand that our Jiang family is not a restaurant, and we don't need to compete with their Xu family." Jiang Mingzhao put down his chopsticks and took a sip of soup. "I'll find what you want."

Lu Yunkai thought for a moment, "find all the strange things for me."

"Oh, how dare you open your mouth."
