After traveling to ancient times, I relied on my husband to win

The sun was setting in the west. Taking advantage of the last rays of light, everyone packed up the things they had brought, including the baskets of fish they had bought, and prepared to return.

After a day of playing, several women fell asleep in the carriage, leaving only a few men driving the carriage.

Taking advantage of the night, Qin Yan drove to the Qin Mansion, woke up Qin Rui, and asked her to go back to her room to sleep. He then carried Jiang Zhi back to the room first.

He asked someone to unload the things on the carriage first, and found a bigger tank to keep the fish. After a simple cleanup, he went back to his room to sleep.

The next day

Qin Yan got up early, packed up, made breakfast, and woke Jiang Zhi up to eat.

I didn't let her sleep today. After breakfast, I took her for a walk in the yard. The air in early spring is fresh, and the unpolluted air is even fresher.

When they were tired from strolling around, Jiang Zhi went back to the yard and sat on a recliner to rest for a while.

Qin Yan began to pack up the things that he had not packed yesterday. It was not his first time going out to play, so he packed quite neatly this time.

The fish in that tank were still alive, and there happened to be four baskets of fish when they returned. Each family took one basket back, and no one suffered a loss.

Qin Yan looked at the shiny fish in the tank and couldn't help but click his tongue.

"As expected of a wild fish from the lake, it has strong vitality."

There are still some crayfish from yesterday’s catch, but we ate a lot of them yesterday and divided them into four portions for each family, so we didn’t bring back many.

But there is still a small basket.

Looking at the crayfish, we ate a lot yesterday. Let’s eat fish first today and then shrimp in the evening.

I thought there were some in the river outside the city, so I could just go and catch them when I wanted to eat them.

noon

Qin Yan looked at the fish in the fish tank and thought that Jiang Zhi liked to eat sour food recently, so he decided to make pickled fish.

Do it as soon as you say. First, knock the fish unconscious and clean the scales. Open the fish bladder and take it out, clean it carefully. Chop the fish into sections and slices. Mix salt, wine, pepper, and starch to remove the fishy smell. Let it sit for two hours.

Prepare tender tofu, sauerkraut, enoki mushrooms, onion, ginger, garlic, peppercorns and coriander.

Heat oil in a pan, add onion, ginger, garlic and chili and stir-fry until fragrant, add tofu and sauerkraut, stir-fry for a while, pour in hot water and simmer for a while.

In another pot, cook the marinated fish on low heat, then put the fish into the pot of stewing soup, continue to simmer, and finally turn off the heat and serve.

Qin Yan saw that the remaining fish head could not be wasted, so he made a chopped pepper fish head with it.

Prepare the fish head and marinate it with onion, ginger, garlic, salt and cooking wine.

Steam it until cooked, then heat oil in a pan, add seasonings, a small bowl of minced garlic, and chili pepper, and cook in the pot.

After thinking about it, I decided to make a sweet and sour fish. Today is a full fish feast. Fry the fish, pour in the prepared sweet and sour sauce, and then it’s ready to serve.

With three meat dishes, two vegetarian dishes were prepared, one was green vegetables and the other was spicy and sour shredded potatoes.

After the vegetables are stir-fried, the fish head is basically cooked, and it’s time to serve.

Qin Yan asked the cook to stir-fry spicy and sour potato shreds. Most of the time, he would let the cook learn by his side while he was cooking. Then, when he didn't want to cook, someone else would cook for him, and it would be their favorite dishes.

Serve the dishes on the table and invite people to come and eat.

Qin Yan also went to call Jiang Zhi over to eat, and the cook was setting the dishes and chopsticks there.

Several people sat down to eat. They were very confident in Qin Yan's cooking skills for the new dishes. They thought the dishes on the table were good.

When preparing to eat, they wonder if something is missing?

Old Madam Qin clapped her hands and said, "Oh, yes, Jiuxuan hasn't come back yet."

"Ah? We still have to wait for Brother Jiuxuan to come back to eat. When will Brother Jiuxuan come back?"

Qin Rui held the bowl and chopsticks, drooling at the food on the table.

Qin Yan looked at the sky and decided that he couldn't wait for Jiuxuan to not eat.

"Let's not wait for him, Grandma. Let's eat first. When he comes back, we can ask the cook to make some food for him. Besides, he has been busy running the store recently, and we don't know if he can come back. Let's eat first."

No one objected to what they heard and they started eating.

They had just started eating when a man came in from outside the Qin Mansion. He ran into the yard, smelled the delicious food halfway and ran even faster.

He rushed to Qin Yan and his friends' dining table like a gust of wind, said hello, took a look, picked up the empty bowl on the table, sat down and started eating.

The others at the table were stunned, but when they saw Rong Jiuxuan already started stuffing big mouthfuls of food into his mouth, they didn't ask him why he came back.

Qin Yan and his companions also started to eat. Old Madam Qin felt sorry for Rong Jiuxuan as she saw him eating so much that she picked up several pieces of food for him with her chopsticks so that he could eat well.

Rong Jiuxuan thanked his grandmother with a touched face.

After dinner, Old Madam Qin went to digest the food and then took a nap. Qin Rui also took a nap.

Only Rong Jiuxuan followed Qin Yan and Jiang Zhi, following them step by step into their yard.

Qin Yan brought Jiang Zhi into the yard, helped Jiang Zhi sit on the recliner, placed the tea set, and started making tea.

Rong Jiuxuan also came in and sat on the stool next to him.

Qin Yan was making tea and said, "Tell me, what happened to you? Didn't you go to the decoration store?"

Jiang Zhi lay in the rocking chair, listening to their conversation, rocking with her eyes closed, her consciousness slowly becoming confused.

Rong Jiuxuan was not polite and directly explained the results of his work in recent days.

"The shop decoration is almost done, and the staff has been bought from the human trafficking and trained, but the production site has not been found. And the other thing is the opening, we need to find people to support the business..."

Qin Yan made tea and after hearing his words, he picked up the tea and drank it while thinking.

"Well, it's okay to support the business. I'll take you to the palace some other day. If these things of yours are liked by the people in the palace, then you'll have a business. Then I'll find a few ladies to take care of your business. But you have to please those ladies first, then they'll like it."

"The palace, you can even enter the palace, brother, dear brother, you have such a thigh that you can hold the emperor, you are so awesome, I will definitely hang out with you in the future. Don't worry, these are the ones I make a living with, I can have flaws, but my cosmetics can't."

"Yes, you know it yourself. As for the production site, in order to prevent others from knowing your formula and selling it secretly, you can find someone to do it on one of my farms, or find a villager to do it. People there won't tell others, and even if they do, they won't understand."

"Well, you are worthy of being the man who holds the emperor's thigh. Unlike people like me who are superficial, you have strength and brains."

Rong Jiuxuan sighed that Qin Yan was smart and envied the big brother he had, but it was not bad to have him as a big brother now.

Qin Yan looked at him and frowned, "Why are you still here?"

"Ah? I...ah?"

Rong Jiuxuan pointed at himself.

Qin Yan nodded. Don’t you have other people? Do you think I should go out?

Rong Jiuxuan understood the meaning in Qin Yan's eyes and nodded, saying, "You are the brother, you are the boss, whatever you say goes."
