Pastoral Song [Farming]

"Brother Ye, come quickly."

"Forgive me, the Buddha. Although I don't know how old you are and whether you can manage my hometown, I still sincerely ask the Buddha to bless Brother Ye, Mom and Dad, to have a safe, healthy and happy life, and Muye will give you a discount."

After respectfully worshiping the Buddha, donating money for sesame oil, and wandering around the temple with Jiang Ye, it was already dark when we went down the mountain after eating a vegetarian meal.

On the street, the lanterns have just been lit. From a distance, it looks like a dragon hovering at the feet, the lights are brilliant and radiant.There are more people than when they came, bustling and lively.Some stalls selling lanterns were also set up, and some even held lantern riddle guessing activities in order to attract customers.

I bought a "Carp Leaping on the Lotus Seat" lantern, held it in my hand, and led Jiang Ye to walk slowly on the road. I bought another one when I encountered delicious food. I didn't go back to the inn until the fireworks show ended in the middle of the night. , Soaked in a hot bath and fell asleep with my boyfriend in my arms.

After returning from the county and changing into home clothes, Muye and Jiang Ye were sitting in the shade discussing the name of the restaurant: "Brother Mu, where are you at home?" Tian Lixiao forced an ugly smile and forced out These few words, with a family behind him, stepped over the gate and walked in.

Monk Makino Zhang Er couldn't figure it out, and looked at Jiang Ye suspiciously. Seeing that the other party shook his head, he stood up and asked, "Why are you here? What's the matter?"

Forgive him for really not being able to call Tian Lixiao "Dad", but he doesn't come here to find fault, and he can't bite people like a crazy dog. It's better to uphold the most basic politeness and ask the reason. .

"It's fine, isn't it Mid-Autumn Festival? I wanted to ask you guys to go home for a meal yesterday, but the door was closed when I came here. Let's come and have a look today."

Tian Lixiao clenched his hands uncomfortably: After living for decades, when has he ever talked to someone in such a low voice, let alone this person is his own son?But he couldn't do anything, Cheng'er said that Mu Ye seemed to be a soft-bodied man, and forcing him would only be counterproductive.

"We went to the county yesterday." Muye was at a loss: Lao Tian's family asked him to eat?Is the sun coming out from the south?

"Well, Brother Mu, it was your mother who did something wrong in the past, and I'm here today to admit your mistake. After all, we are all a family, so how could there be any overnight feud?"

Tian Lixiao continued, this is their purpose, to ease the relationship first, let Muye relax his vigilance, and then ask him to take money out for Tian Cheng's education expenses.

Makino listened to Tian Lixiao say these words in disbelief: Apologize to yourself?What happened to the Laotian family?

"Yeah, brother, we were young and ignorant, and we did something wrong. Brother won't argue with us, right?" Tian Cheng opened his mouth in a timely manner, and pulled Tian Yue after speaking: "Yue'er, come here, Apologize to big brother."

Tian Yue's face was gloomy, with hints of anger, and after being glared at by Tian Lixiao, she refused to say in every possible way: "I'm sorry." After speaking, she seemed to have dirty her mouth, wiped it with a handkerchief, and was almost disgusted. The words are written on the head.

Makino was a little funny, if he felt remorse, what did he do in the previous month?Say regret now, ask for forgiveness?Don't be ridiculous, who will believe it?

He is not the Holy Mother God. If he hadn't occupied this body, Tian Yu would have been an unknown corpse. How could he have heard the word "apology"?Given the Tian family's unprofitable temperament, maybe what is wrong with them secretly poking around?

"I'm doing fine now, so I don't need to apologize..."

"Father knew you were a filial child." Tian Lixiao was overjoyed, and interrupted Mu Ye, so it was done?

"Then let's go first, come back and sit down when you have time." After speaking, as if afraid of Makino's repentance, he turned around and left with his family.

Makino was dumbfounded: "Brother Ye, they seem to have misunderstood. I haven't finished my sentence yet. I don't want to forgive them."

"Don't worry, Ono, they will come again."

"That's right, the fox's tail will show up sooner or later."

Mu Ye leaned on Jiang Ye and secretly sighed: He is a lazy person, he just wants to live a peaceful life, but why is it so difficult?

"Ma'am, the person sent out to investigate has returned."

"How, have you found it?" Mrs. Xie was taking a nap, when she heard Lan Qi coming in to report, she immediately sat up straight with a serious expression, a little nervous and anxious.

"Our people only found out that the general and that little brother stayed at the Ju'an Inn for one night. The little brother's name is Muye..."

"Muye? You said his name is Muye?" Mrs. Xie has always been a lady, gentle, quiet and restrained. The matter that made her lose her composure and question her loudly, and her eyes were bloodshot... Lan Qi was frightened, afraid that it would affect him and be caught by his wife. Punishment:

"Yes, ma'am..."

"It really is her child... It really is... What else? What about his mother?"

Mrs. Xie was deceiving herself: Even Tao Niang's child was born with someone else, right?Looking at it now, if the surname is Mu, it is really brother left behind?If my brother found out, she was the one who made trouble back then?However, the person who came back said that the matter was settled, so why would she let her keep the child?

"Ma'am, that's all we've heard. The follower was spotted by the general and dumped, but looking at the direction, he's headed for a village in the north."

"Send someone to investigate again, and investigate the surrounding villages and towns one by one. No one can be missed. I must find the person."

"But, ma'am, our manpower is limited, so many towns..."

"Help me pass the post to the county magistrate's wife. Since it is a nearby village, there must be a record in the county."

"Yes, ma'am, Lan Qi will do it now." Lan Qi hurriedly bowed and stepped back, rubbing the cold sweat on her forehead, but luckily she was not punished.

The small shop is being renovated very quickly. Makino doesn't plan to change these antique things. The carpentry work here is very meticulous. You just need to change the space utilization and add more as you want.

The windows of the original small building were relatively narrow. Makino asked the master to dismantle them all and make them into floor-to-ceiling windows half a meter above the ground. Green plants are neatly arranged under the windows. When you open the windows, you feel relaxed and happy.

Through the gaps in the plants, you can see the outdoor barbecue booth outside. The barbecue booth is surrounded by exquisitely crafted log railings, and red palace lanterns are hung high on it. In the middle of the railings, there are strings of pumpkin-sized lanterns. The lights are lit at night. It is so dim and shadowy that it can be seen from a distance, so that in the future, when many guests who come here ask for directions, everyone will say that it is in the dimly lit place.

On the left side of the first floor, an open space was deliberately set aside to build a room within a room.It is opened on the side of the street, and a table extending outward is made, and the guests who take away can just line up at the window.Facing the side of the house, a small window was also opened to serve the diners who stayed in the shop.Fried sausages, dough, bowls, newly added mooncakes, shortbreads, these are simple and less oily, and can be placed directly in the small workshop.

On the right hand side of the entrance, there is a high-row shelf, and bamboo is planted at the back as a partition. The skewered meat, vegetables, steamed buns and various barbecue ingredients are neatly placed on the shelf.After entering the door, you only need to put the food you want to eat on the tray, go to the counter to check out, and get a number plate by the way, and someone will hand it to the chef and serve it to the table, which is very convenient.

Behind the partition are neat rows of chairs.In order to avoid the smell of barbecue, there are houses everywhere, and Makino stipulates that guests who eat barbecue can only eat at the open-air stalls outside.

The most amazing thing is that at the entrance, Makino made a modern bar, with a console and shelves behind it, where various wines, teas, and small decorations are placed.He was going to take some time to study some of his favorite drinks in his previous life, fruit juice soft drinks for sale.

There is no way to make a juice machine here. After studying with Master Zhang for a few days, we decided to make a leaky net with small holes similar to friction at the bottom. The holes in the upper layer are larger, and the holes in the lower two layers are smaller. After the fruit to be squeezed is put in, the lid is closed, and the handle connected to the outside is shaken, the friction disc will rotate in the opposite direction, and squeeze it downward, and the juice can flow out from the small hole on one side.

Makino has tried hard fruit like apples, but it takes a lot of effort to squeeze, and everything else is quite easy. Since this simple version of the juicer is available, most of the customers will see that Boss Mu is drinking tomato juice , or Boss Jiang is squeezing tomato juice, and after a long time, some customers even follow suit and order a glass.

The second floor is not going to be open to the public for the time being. The seats outside the barbecue and dumplings are enough for the time being, and Makino plans to reserve them for other uses.

There are two small courtyards at the back of the small building, one of which has a small door and serves as the outdoor restaurant of Amber Noodle Restaurant.The right side of the other courtyard was originally built with a row of brick and tile houses. Makino asked the master to repaint it and make it into a small dormitory for two people to accommodate the shop assistants. If they have families in the future, they will find another place for them.

He and Jiang Ye still had to go back to Futian Village every day, and they both agreed that it was their home, and they didn't want to live in the town, so the shop was basically handed over to Uncle Fu at night.

Uncle Fu used to help Jiang Ye take care of Zhuangzi. He was a capable little old man. , Every day I nest in the kitchen to study new foods.

Barbecue is a thing that everyone can learn slowly, and he didn't plan to do it all the time, but it was annoying to see such a large area empty, and he just got hungry again.What he wants to do most is all kinds of snacks from his hometown.

Wash and peel the potatoes and soak them in water. Use a large grater to rub them into thin slices of potatoes that are one centimeter long and short from the length of your little finger. Pour white flour and stir evenly with chopsticks.Spread white gauze in the cage drawer, pour the mixed potatoes in and spread them flat, steam them over high heat until they are raw, pour them into a dustpan, and use chopsticks to break them apart to prevent them from sticking together.

In another pan, pour oil, add garlic cloves and scallions until fragrant, pour in the steamed potatoes and stir-fry until the grains are distinct and slightly browned, add salt and five-spice powder to taste, and a bowl of fragrant rotten seeds is ready.

This is the easiest method, and you can also fry it with eggs, minced meat, or beans.However, vegetables like bean sprouts, which are prone to water, are not suitable if they are sticky and greasy after frying. Probably no one would like the feeling of being soaked.

It’s best to eat it with a bowl of millet soup or iced mung bean paste. As the saying goes in my hometown, it’s more filling than eating a large bowl of rice. It’s especially real.
