    When she explained this, Hu Mingniang¡¯s expression could be called wonderful, and she almost wanted to pounce on her and shake her collar, ¡°There are only two types of noble ladies series, so you are opening a new trap.¡±

    Lin Xuanjiu calmly replied, "Believe in my good quality, I promise to fill in the pit."

    Hu Mingniang then gave up.

    In addition to new balms, Lin Xuanjiu is also compiling medicinal diet books recently.

    After she became the big boss of Fuyunlai, she also used some privileges, that is, the place where she teaches recipes is located in Yuyanyuan.

    Now that I have free time every day, I will teach the cook how to mix medicinal materials and cook medicinal meals.

    Time flies, and it¡¯s April in the blink of an eye.

    On the afternoon of the Beginning of Summer, Lin Xuan arrived at Xuanji Braised Chuan Shop just as the braised meat in Shujuan Lane was freshly cooked.

    This morning, Mr. Xie wanted to eat braised skewers again, but he was busy today and couldn't go home on time in the evening. He could only ask Lin Xuanjiu to pack some for him in advance and wait for him to eat in the evening.

    Lin Xuanjiu¡¯s carriage stopped at the back door of the shop, and it was Mu An who opened the door.

    Mu An led Lin Xuanjiu into the house and poured her tea, "Girl, please wait a moment, something happened in the shop in front, shopkeeper Lin is busy."

    Hearing that something happened, Lin Xuanjiu couldn't sit still, so he set out to have a look.

    Before I even reached the shop, I heard Lin Rong's irritated voice, "Old sir, we really don't sell alcohol here. You are addicted to alcohol. Can you go drink somewhere else?"

    I saw an old man in brown robe sitting in the shop, holding up his gourd and stuffing it into Lin Rong's arms. Lin Rong refused, with a look of helplessness on his face.

    "I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about you, you guys are too business-minded! You are opening a braised vegetable restaurant, how can anyone eat braised vegetables without drinking wine? Come on, give me good wine!"

    Lin Cai cupped his hands and said, "Old sir, opposite the small shop is the academy. We don't dare to sell wine. If we miss the students, it will be a big sin."

    "When a student drinks and causes trouble, it's because he has no self-control. How can he rely on the person who sells the alcohol? This is obviously an excuse!"

    Seeing what he said, Lin Rong's nose turned crooked with anger and he immediately yelled.

    "I said, old man, can you please be reasonable? We are a braised skewers shop, not a wine shop. You decide whether to sell wine or not. You can't force us to sell wine."

    The old man raised the gourd and knocked it on Lin Rong's hand, "You kid is so ignorant. Just talk and don't point your finger at others."

    Lin Rong came up angrily, but luckily Lin Cai immediately grabbed him and drove him back.

    Turning around, he smiled apologetically at the old man, "Old man, if you really want to drink, then I'll ask the waiter to get you half a catty, and you can drink it with braised skewers later, how about it?"

    The old man hummed, "That's ridiculous."

    Lin Cai immediately asked Qian Gui'er to buy wine and gave him a piece of silver to buy some good wine.

    After a while, Qian Gui'er ran back and handed the gourd to the old man, "Old sir, your wine."

    The old man raised his head and took a sip, spitting out all the wine. He turned his wrist and poured out all the wine in the gourd.

    Qian Gui'er ran back and forth, barely breathing, when he saw that all the wine he had worked so hard to buy had been poured out.

    He immediately stared and said in anger, "What's wrong with you old man? I bought you wine, why did you pour it again?"

    The old man curled his lips and said disgustedly, "Who told you not to give me good wine? This wine has been mixed with water and has no taste anymore."

    Lin Cai glared at Qian Gui'er. Qian Gui'er stretched out his hand, not missing a cent of the one penny he had just given.

    "How can this old man buy good wine if he doesn't give me money? He just cheats us out of food and drinks. He's been letting us make a fuss all afternoon. Shopkeeper, why are you still relying on him?"

    Lin Cai sighed, he was annoyed too.

    ??But looking at the old man's clothes, he is obviously rich or noble, and he can't afford to offend him.

    It¡¯s just a matter of a jug of wine.

    He patted Qian Gui'er's shoulder, took the wine gourd and stuffed it into his hand, "Go buy some good wine."

    The old man added, "I want half a catty of pear blossom spring."

    Lin Cai¡¯s expression also changed at this time. Lihuachun is the best wine shop in Lihua Lane and is also the name of the signature wine.

    A pound of pear blossoms costs six taels of silver, which is quite expensive.

    The old man asked for half a catty of pear blossoms.

    Lin Cai hesitated and said, "Old sir, how about you pay for some wine in advance, and I'll ask Qian Gui'er to buy it."

     "Don't worry, I won't miss your drink money." The old man said, pulling down the brocade bag from his waist and throwing it all to Lin Cai.

    The kit was so light, could it be a banknote? Lin Cai opened it doubtfully, and there was indeed a piece of paper inside.

    But when I spread out the paper, it was not a banknote, but a line of words written by myself, "Grant a wish", with the word "Yongning" at the end.

    Even though Lin Cai was doing business based on the principle of peace as the most precious thing, he was also angry.

    "Old sir, this is Lingzhou City. You have to pay for food and shopping. You can't write IOUs, let alone something like this that doesn't even count as IOUs."

    "Give me the IOU and I'll pay for the drinks." came a sudden female voice.

    Lin Cai heard Lin Xuanjiu¡¯s voice and immediately felt as if he had been granted amnesty.

    Lin Xuanjiu took the IOU from Lin Cai, "I'll accept this note and spend the money you gave Qian Gui'er to buy wine tomorrow."

    Minghua directly paid him twenty taels.

    Seeing that Lin Xuanjiu had attached great importance to this matter, Qian Gui'er didn't dare to play tricks anymore, so he ran to Lihua Lane and bought three kilograms of wine.

    Smelling the aroma of Lihuachun wine, the old man held the gourd and took a big sip.

    "Not bad, it's authentic Lihuachun. Where's your braised skewers? Why aren't they here yet?"

    Lin Cai glanced at Lin Xuanjiu and said in a low voice, "It's not time to go on sale yet."

    Lin Xuanjiu said, "Old sir, why don't you go to the backyard and I can turn on the small stove for you?"

    Lin Cai, Lin Rong, and everyone who worked in the Lu Chuan shop looked at her in horror and confusion.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????? How come you break the rules that you have agreed upon?

    The old man squinted his eyes and examined it for a while, "Okay, I am an old man, and I am not afraid to sell it to you."

    Lin Xuan laughed for a long time, "No one will dare to sell you if you do. Old gentleman, come with me and watch your feet."

    Lin Cai then came to his senses. This old man probably had a good background, and Lin Xuan had known him for a long time.

    It¡¯s no wonder if you¡¯re an acquaintance.

    Lin Xuanjiu led the old man to sit down in front of the open-air stone table in the backyard. He went to get the braised skewers and put them on a white porcelain plate.

    "Do you need to dip it in water?"

    "I want it!" The old man nodded hurriedly, and the aroma of the braised skewers and dipping water stimulated him to swallow his saliva.

    Lin Xuanjiu personally served the man, took a skewer, dipped it in water, handed it to him, gave him a skewer, and explained, "This is county liver, which is duck gizzard. This is pig intestine. These are pig ears"

    The old man put down the wine bottle first and then took the braised skewers, using only his left hand throughout the process.

    Despite his age, the old man tasted very good. He ate no less than fifty skewers in one sitting before he stopped, holding his stomach and burping.

    ¡°I can¡¯t, I can¡¯t eat any more, it¡¯s so delicious, tsk tsk, that brat will enjoy it, he doesn¡¯t know how to show respect to me even if it¡¯s so delicious.¡± (Remember this site¡¯s website address: www.hlnovel.com
