After saying that, Fan'er turned around and ran away with the basket, and crawled out of the woods like a cheerful deer. Li Xiu couldn't help but smile when he saw this. This persistent and lively girl could easily win his favor.

Li Xiu thought the powder would come back soon, but he didn't expect that it would take half an hour to wait. Fortunately, he was fishing and did not lack time. During this period, he caught a large silver carp. Although this kind of fish has many thorns, its head is very large, which is very suitable for fish head tofu soup.

Just as Li Xiu picked the silver carp and threw the hook into the water again, he heard a burst of rapid footsteps behind him. When he turned his head, he immediately saw the pink man coming out of the woods panting. In addition to the basket, there was a puppy made of bamboo in his hand, which looked vivid and cute.

"This... how about I exchange this for you?" Fan'er carried the puppy of bamboo weaving and said to Li Xiu. This was learned from an old servant in the family when she was in Pei's mansion. The other party had worked as a bamboo craftsman before and could make a lot of things with bamboo. For him, some small animals were just some fur, and Fan'er only learned this skill.

Li Xiu was also quite surprised when he looked at the bamboo puppy in Fan'er's hand. He took it and looked at it carefully, nodding while looking: "It's not bad, this puppy is really good. You can choose which fish you want!"

Li Xiu said, pointing to the fish basket next to him, and Fan Er was waiting for him to say this. When he saw him agree, he cheered and rushed to the fish basket and opened it. There were only three fish in it. She fell in love with the largest grass carp that Li Xiu caught at first sight, and reached out to catch the grass carp. This grass carp alone was enough for their master and servant to eat for two days.

However, just after Feng Er took out the grass carp, hesitant expression appeared on his face. Finally, he put down the grass carp in a very entangled manner. Instead, he chose the silver carp that Li Xiu caught later. Although this fish is not small, it is still worse than the grass carp. Moreover, this fish is thorny and does not taste easy.

Seeing that the pink actually changed the grass carp to the carp, Li Xiu couldn't help but show a surprised expression. He asked curiously: "Why don't you want the largest grass carp? Don't you know that the carp has a lot of thorns and it's very troublesome to eat?"

"I know, but the puppy I made up is not worth much. You will definitely suffer if you exchange it for such a big fish." Faner replied honestly. She often caught fish when she was a child, so she naturally knew what fish was good, but she didn't want to take advantage of Li Xiu, even if the other party was just a stranger who didn't know his name.

"Haha, it's not bad. I didn't expect that you, a little girl, are quite strong, but do you know how to make this kind of silver carp to taste good?" Li Xiu couldn't help but praise the girl's backbone when he heard this, and then suddenly asked.

"Isn't it easy to cook fish? Just clean it up and add water to boil it. Or it's delicious even if it's roasted on the fire." Fenger said with a look of course. Although she is young, she has started cooking since she was four or five years old, and she doesn't believe that the big man in front of her will know what cooking skills are.

"Haha, I knew you would say that. Tell you that the best place for this kind of silver carp is fish head. It is best to use it to make soup. It is best to fry it in oil before cooking. When the soup is boiled, and the tofu will be even more delicious. If you don't believe it, you will know if you go back and try it." Li Xiu couldn't help laughing when he heard the Fener's words.

Although the cooking has been slowly spread through him, the scope of the circulating is limited to a few nobles. In addition, because the oil is too expensive, cooking is not something that ordinary people can afford. Most ordinary people cook in addition to cooking.

"Well~, this..." Fan'er blinked when she heard this. She felt that the cooking method Li Xiu said should be good. Just listening to it made her feel saliva flow out. But she immediately said in embarrassment, "If there is no oil or tofu at home, can you make the silver carp delicious?"

Li Xiu couldn't help but slapped his forehead helplessly when he heard this. He actually forgot about the current situation of the master and servant of the wardrobe. He thought about it and then said, "If there is no oil, then cut the fish head and roast it simply, and then put it in the pot and cook it. You can use wild vegetables without tofu. It is best to add some mushrooms. The fish head and wild vegetable soup tastes good. Be careful to cook it for a longer time. It is best to cook the fish soup to milky white."

"I understand, thank you young master!" Fan'er couldn't help but shouted excitedly when she heard this, and then she left happily with her carp in her arms. Looking at her leaving back, Li Xiu couldn't help but smile and sat down to continue to enjoy his leisurely summer life.

That night, Fenger made a fish head wild vegetable and mushroom soup according to what Li Xiu said. When she brought the fish head soup to the living room with saliva, the embroidered woman smelled the seductive fragrance. She couldn't help but raise her head and said in surprise: "Where did the fish come from?"

"Hehe, today I went to pick wild vegetables and found a very shallow stream with a lot of fish in it, so I caught one and then caught it when I have time, so I don't have to worry about having no meat to eat." Fan'er deliberately did not tell the truth, because she knew that if the wardrobe knew that the fish was exchanged for inexpensive bamboo cries, she would definitely be unhappy, and would even ask herself to bring the money to others tomorrow, but the family had not much money.

The lady in the air didn't expect the fan to lie to her. She immediately believed it and said, "I didn't expect that the fan of our family would have such luck. Haven't you been greedy for several days? Quickly try the fish you made, it smells really good!"

Seeing that Niang Yi had no doubts, Fan'er was also very happy. She tasted the fish she made with Niang Yi. As a result, Niang Yi tasted it and praised her cooking skills as she was getting better and better. This made Fan'er even happier and was even more grateful to the stranger who was unknown.

In the following period, as long as Li Xiu had nothing to do, he would go fishing by the river every day. When picking wild vegetables, he would often pass by there. Occasionally, he would use some small bamboo strips to exchange for fish with Li Xiu. These small animals made of bamboo strips were very popular with Qi Niang, and Li Xiu did not lack these fish, so he would always be with her. After a while, the two of them became more and more familiar with each other.

That afternoon, Li Xiu was still sitting in the old place to fish. The weather was good today. The sky was covered with thick dark clouds, blocking the scorching sun, making the whole earth cool suddenly. Li Xiu felt a cool breeze blowing from the woods behind him, and his whole body was very cool, and he seemed to be energetic.

At this moment, a familiar little song came from the woods again, and then the pink jumped out of the woods with a basket on his back. When he saw Li Xiu, he smiled and said hello: "How is the harvest today? Have you caught a big fish?"

"I'm lucky. When the fish are cloudy, they all run to the water and they can easily catch a lot of fish." Li Xiu smiled and pointed to the fish basket next to him. Today he caught more than a dozen fish at once, which is more than two or three days before.

"Hehe, I'm lucky, I'm not bad. Look what I found?" Fan'er said as he showed Li Xiu's bamboo basket. In addition to wild vegetables and fruits, there were also some slender tender leaves inside, which looked like the leaves of some kind of tree. Li Xiu looked familiar, but he couldn't recognize it for a while.

"What are you doing for picking these leaves?" Li Xiu asked curiously.

"Hi, these are not ordinary leaves, but the leaves of tea trees. I found a few wild tea trees on the mountain, so I picked some back." Fenger said happily. There are so many trees on the mountain, and it is so lucky to be able to find a few tea trees in the dense forest.

"Tea leaves? Do you still know how to make tea?" Li Xiu couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this. You should know that the tea in this era is all the kind of tea cakes. It is said that the process is very complicated, and it is steamed and pounded. This also leads to the high cost of tea and the high price. What's even more hateful is that the current trend of drinking tea is like to add everything to tea, which makes a bowl of tea soup miscellaneous array. Every time Li Xiu drinks it, he will doubt whether his life is a mistake?

"I certainly don't know how complicated the tea cake is." Fener said with a look of course at this time, and then she smiled again, "But although I don't know how to tea cake, this kind of tea leaves can actually be eaten as wild vegetables. In addition, it can be eaten as drying it and can be drunk. Although it is not as wonderful as real tea, it also has the taste of tea inside. This was how my father used to drink."

"Uh?" Li Xiu didn't expect that tea has so many functions, but since it can be drunk, it should be fine to eat it. In addition, the method of drying the tea and soaking it in water also reminded him of the fried tea in later generations. It is estimated that this method is likely to be the predecessor of fried tea.

Thinking of the fried tea that I was used to drinking in later generations, and thinking about the tea soup that is hated by this era, Li Xiu suddenly had an idea and waved to Fan'er, asking her to come to him. Then he said mysteriously: "Fan'er, do you want to make some money for your family?"

"Of course I thought about it! But... But I don't know anything, how can I make money?" Fan'er nodded at first when she heard it, and then said a little discouraged. In order to make money, the mother in heaven embroidered her embroidery day and night. Fan'er couldn't help much, and she felt very disappointed.

"Haha, as long as you want to make money, I have a way to try it. If it succeeds, it will ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing!" Li Xiu said mysteriously again. If the fried tea can be made by the flour, even if others don't like this light taste, he will definitely pay for it. At that time, he will drink the tea he likes and solve the livelihood of the monkey and his servants, which will kill two birds with one stone. (To be continued.)
