Tang Fan walked over: "A Dong, what's wrong with you, come in and talk."
A Dong's small face was all wrinkled: "Master Tang, this is the water chestnut cake and tofu roll that my wife sent me."
The water chestnut cake is cut into small squares and small squares. The translucent pastry is embedded with a grain of water chestnuts.
Tofu rolls are thin egg skins wrapped with steamed glutinous rice mushrooms and tofu, and then fried with pigs. The outside is browned and the inside is soft and waxy.
Tang Fan glanced at it, and the basket was full, he could not help but ridicule: "Why don't you steal it today?"
A Dong sighed and said with awe that he wasn't just stealing food: "I'm afraid I won't be able to come over and give you snacks in two days."
In fact, although Mr. Tang is a foodie, his nature is easy to go with, and he is not too demanding on the quality of life. The best is the best, and it does not matter at all, so after listening to Aston, he only laughed: "Why, you made a mistake Wrong, to be banned? "
A Dong shook his head: "No, no, I heard that the old man was going to take his concubine from Xinna outside. The wife was very unhappy, and Sister A Chun said, when the old man comes back, the family is not the wife, we It ’s not very convenient to come out. "
Tang Fan is very strange: "Even if your lord comes back, isn't she still the head of the family? Why can't you even make small things like snacks?"
A Dong held her chin: "I also listened to Sister A Chun's words. She told me not to talk outside. You can't tell others after you listen!"
Tang Fan picked up a piece of water chestnut cake and put it in the mouth. He said that the Li family chef was really first-class, and teased her: "Then you don't tell me anymore, I'm afraid I can't help it."
The ancients were precocious and the little girl was at the active age of gossip. I wished someone could share it. How could she not say it? Seeing Tang Fan refused, she wrinkled her small face tightly: "Well, then do n’t tell anyone I know , Others will not know that I said it! "
Tang Fan threw a smile: "Okay, okay, if you want to say it, hurry up."
A Dongdao: "I heard Sister A Chun said that his wife has been married to the Li family for so many years, and she has not been able to make out. Even Master Lin was born in the concubine of the old man. Because of this, the old man always threatened to take a break from his wife, It ’s just because my wife ’s family has distant relatives as officials, so the old man has always been scrupulous. The concubine that the old man wants to bring back this time has heard that she is pregnant, so the wife is very unhappy during this time, and even we have to be low-key. , Sister A Chun told me not to come and deliver things after today, lest I be met by my lord, I will have a misunderstanding, and I will run into you at that time. "
Tang Fan was surprised: "Even so, but your mother-in-law has been in Li's house for so many years, your old man travels for business, and she does housework for Li's family. How could your old man treat her like a maidservant and want to take a break Just take it off? "
Moreover, the Mrs. Li family he saw was not like the kind of person who had no opinion and bullied him.
After all, A Dong was still a little girl. After hearing it for a while, she thought for a while before saying: "Sister A Chun said, something happened to her wife's family a long time ago, and it required a lot of money. No one else could help, only Our old man took out the savings to help his wife's family. Later, because of this, the family became very poor, and the old man could not continue to study as an official, so the wife always felt that she owed the old man. "
It stands to reason that the next person can't chew the host's tongue, and also talk about this kind of private matters around the house, but as soon as A Dong is young, she also regards Tang Fan as her own. Recently, she also felt the atmosphere of the Li family. Very depressed, can not help but secretly talk to Tang Fan.
Tang Fan suddenly realized that there was still such an inner feeling. Before he saw that Li Man was a concubine and was planning to divorce his wife, it would inevitably remind him of Zheng Cheng and Zheng Sun ’s affairs, but now it seems that Li Man was able to In order to help his wife's family and spend his family's money, it is quite righteous.
There are always antecedents and consequences. If Aston said it is true, he is also a man, it is not difficult for Tang Fan to understand Li Man ’s psychology: the imperial examination is more important for a student than his life. When the couple was in love, he was able to In order to make a big fortune for his wife ’s family, he had to give up studying and change business because of livelihood problems. However, as time went by, the relationship between husband and wife gradually weakened, and he began to realize that he had not continued to study to participate in the imperial examination. What a mistake, no matter how rich the businessman is, after all, the social status is still not as high as that of the scholar, so Li Man regrets it in his heart, and it is also human nature. After all, not everyone is willing to give up and ask for nothing in return.
But in the final analysis, these are all Li family's chores, and have nothing to do with Tang Fan. Master Tang is just listening to an ear of gossip, and by the way, make up for Li Man's mental journey. Of course, for a girl like Aston, he certainly won't What he said, instead said: "Adon, you just talk to me, don't talk outside, or you will be discovered by your grandfather, but you will suffer from it."
A Dong nodded like a chicken and pecked at the rice: "I don't say anyone but you!"
Tang Fan took another piece of water chestnut cake into his mouth and nodded: "That's right."
He never had a shelf, even after a few days with a little girl like Ason, he could be so casual in private.
A Dong realized that his mouth hadn't stopped, and pulled the basket over to look at it, dumbfounded.
The water chestnut cake inside was all swept away!
But she clearly watched Master Tang eat very slowly!
Noting the stunned look of the little girl, Master Tang smiled gently: "This is a late return from Yamen, and I haven't had time to eat dinner yet."
A Dong taught him very little: "Adult, you can't do this. After all, the pastry can't fill your stomach and be eaten. You should eat some porridge and rice!"
Tang Fan said innocently: "However, there is very little fire at home, and I will only cook millet porridge. If I drink porridge every day, I'm afraid I will be hungry in the Yamen."
A Dong expressed his sympathy and rolled up his sleeves to be the right one: "Do you still have anything to eat in the stove in your house? Let me do something for you!"
Without saying anything, Tang Pan stopped, and he ran to the kitchen room with his pedals.
Although Adong was young, she was sold to the Li family as a slave-servant since she was a child. Although Mrs. Li's family would not be harsh on her people, the work that she should do is still in Adong. When you are in the house, cooking is the basic skill.
In less than half an hour, a bowl of fragrant green onion egg fried rice was released.
The rice was steamed and fried. The two eggs were scoured in the Tang family's kitchen. The green onion was bought by Tang Fan on the street last time.
From this point of view, A Dong is definitely a qualified little cook.
Tang Fan is a man after all. Of course, the little water chestnut cake was of course not enough to eat. Seeing this bowl of egg fried rice in front of him, he winked and praised without hesitation: "Adong, you are really reborn!"
A Dong is at a loss: "What is Yi Yi, can I eat it?"
Tang Fan: "... It doesn't matter, but you have been here for too long, you should go back, otherwise your housemaid should find you."
He actually liked the little girl Adong, at least it was easier than Axia.
Every day, the pile of files in Yamen is either a case of seizure or a case of murder and wounding. It is easy to be mentally murky when you read more. It is actually a way to relax when you get home so that you can chat so personally, but After all, A Dong is not Tang Fan's servant, and it is impossible to stay here.
A Dong threw out his tongue: "It's okay, anyway, I'm still young, and I have nothing to do when I go back. Sister A Chun they all hurt me, but I still go back, so as not to be said by Sister A Chun!"
After sending off the bouncing Adon, Tang Fan tasted the bowl of fried rice with eggs, and found that the taste was indeed quite good, at least much better than what he made himself.
After the Tang family fell, in order to allow his sister to marry the scenery, Tang Pan sent the two remaining servants to his sister ’s husband ’s house, and no one was available to him, and because he lived alone The daily life is relatively simple. Tang Fan always hired short-term workers to clean the house at intervals. When he was free, he did it himself. Although Lord Tang loves to eat, the only thing he can do is bland porridge, which makes people have to tears of sympathy.
But now, in order to have hot meals to go home, he is seriously considering buying a servant who can cook and come back as a cook.
Let ’s not ask for the skills of the Li family chef, but at the very least, should we reach the level of Ason?
Aston carrying a basket and humming Xiaoqu returned to Li's house. When he stepped into the courtyard, he ran into Achun coming out of the main mother's room. And smiled at Achun favorably: "Sister Achun, have you eaten yet? I'll go to the kitchen and take a look at you?"
A Chun poked her head: "You went to Master Tang to be lazy again? Master Tang is very busy and has no time to greet you little girl, don't think I don't know that you will eat it when you take a snack. Do n’t worry about you, do n’t put your nose on your face, your wife will be in a bad mood for a while, and we must be more alert!
"Yes, I know!" Adong knew that she had always been hard-hearted and soft-hearted, but she kept agreeing and looked at the food on her hand, but she didn't move a few chopsticks. Sister is on duty, why are you going to deliver food? "
A Chun sighed and pulled her aside, whispering: "A Xia has been very sad since she was rejected by Master Tang last time. She has lost everything in her work. I'm afraid she ran into her wife, so I helped her share some As for the affairs of the wife, we, the current people, can't control that much. Don't go to Master Tang for a while, the master will soon bring people back, and you will definitely need to vacate a new yard. Smart, go and help clean up! "
A Dong naturally responded with a sip, and said, "Sister A Chun, then you go to use the rice first. I'll just keep it here."
A Chundao: "There are still dishes confiscated inside!"
Adong pushed her out: "I'll take it, I'll take it!"
Ah Chun couldn't help her, so she had to carry the things to the kitchen first.
As soon as she left her foot, Axia returned.
A Dong shouted: "Sister Axia, you look so ugly, are you uncomfortable?"
Since Tang Fan rejected Axia's proposal to be a concubine, she has been sullen, but today her face is paler than yesterday.
Axia Qiang smiled: "It's nothing. It's just a small day, and my stomach is a little uncomfortable."
Aston blinked, she wasn't old enough to experience these things, but she was so enchanted on weekdays that she naturally understood: "Then go rest and I'll be fine here."
"It's okay," Axia touched her head. "What about Achun?"
A Dong: "Sister A Chun is busy till now, she hasn't eaten yet. I asked her to eat first."
Axia: "What can the wife do?"
A Dong: "Sister A Chun said that his wife didn't take a few bites and there were some dishes confiscated inside. I was about to take it!"
Axia: "Then I'll go in and take it. Will you help me get the kitchen later?"
Aston: "Okay!"
She watched Asya walk in and thought that the woman was really uncomfortable when she was a child. Asya ’s sister did not even walk awkwardly, it must be very painful. Something could not help but shudder.
