The county magistrate's daughter only wants to farm

The restaurant was open for three days and business was unprecedentedly booming. Gu Yin did not expect that the events on the first day of opening did not affect the restaurant's business. After the people of Ning County learned that it was the owner of Chunfeng Tower who sent people to frame them, they all believed that the person behind the scenes must be the boss of that place. Therefore, they were uneasy about eating at Chunfeng Tower and turned to Shitian.

Everyone who has come to eat here has been conquered by the new dishes at Shi Tian Xia, so the restaurant’s business is naturally booming.

Gu Yin finally felt relieved and gave bonuses to all the employees of the restaurant. Everyone who received the bonus was very excited. The boss was so generous. It was so great to work in Food World. Everyone was full of energy.

Feicui was also very happy. She had never thought that she would be the shopkeeper of a restaurant one day. It turned out that she had the ability to do this besides serving the young lady. However, she was still worried when she thought that the young lady was alone with Pearl. After thinking about it, she decided to talk to the young lady.

"Miss, this restaurant is now on track. Shouldn't you find someone to take over?"

"Huh? Don't you like this job?" She watched Feicui go from being timid to being able to do it with ease now, and on the surface, Feicui looked happy as well.

"I like it, but I still want to go back to serve the young lady."

"Just keep doing it if you like it. I won't be short of people to serve me. Besides, management talents are hard to come by. I was thinking of letting you manage the business in the future." Gu Yin pretended to be worried, and it was obvious that Feicui didn't want to be the shopkeeper anymore.

"This..." Industry...? Feicui was delighted when she heard this, but she was immediately conflicted. She liked management, but she was also worried about the young lady.

Gu Yin saw her struggle, stepped forward, pinched her face, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry about that. Just do it for now. I haven't found anyone to take over yet. If you really don't want to do it one day, you can always come back to serve me."

After that, he invited Zhenzhu to go to the farm. A few days ago, he promised Qian that he would teach them how to cook. The restaurant was fine, so he had time now.

As usual, he went to inspect the rice paddies and found that the rice seedlings were growing well, short, strong, and green. He praised the two brothers Zhao Jiang and Zhao He, then turned back to the yard to teach Qian how to make braised food.

That’s right, the main dish is braised large intestines. Gu Yin discovered that there was no store specializing in braised food in Ning County. Which time traveler would not be tempted after discovering this?

The recipe for the braised food business is not as simple as making braised food at home.

The most important thing about braised food is the braising liquid. Gu Yin first instructed Qian to make the broth with the dragon bones, pig skin and old hen prepared in advance. Boiling the broth is a job that requires patience. It took most of the day to get dozens of kilograms of broth.

The next step was to stir-fry the sauce, add sugar to the broth, then add salt and the spices that Gu Yin had specially asked Qian to prepare in a certain proportion. After another two hours of cooking, the marinade was finally ready.

However, you cannot braise anything yet. It takes three days of continuous work before the brine is fermented and then made into the old brine.

Gu Yin let out a long sigh, it was finally almost over. She had always liked to eat but didn't like to cook. She knew how to cook a lot of things but was too lazy to do them. If she hadn't wanted to be able to eat this whenever she wanted in the future, she really wouldn't have the patience to do it.

"Miss, we have already processed the ingredients you asked us to buy."

After spending these few days together, Qian was no longer timid in front of Gu Yin as she was at the beginning, and became much more open.

Although Qian was curious about what kind of delicious food the young lady could make with this cheap pig offal, she did not doubt it at this moment. The brine that had been boiled in the past few days was really fragrant. The farmhands living nearby came to ask several times what delicious food they had made.

Looking at the cleanly processed pig intestines and pig stomachs on the table, I was very satisfied. In this era of food shortage, no one was willing to use flour, a precious food, to clean cheap pig offal.

Qian used a kind of wild herb, mixed it with pig offal by the stream, and repeatedly washed it until the pig offal was clean.

Boil the cleaned ingredients in boiling water for a few minutes, drain them, and finally put them into the marinade. By the way, I emphasized the marinating time of various common ingredients to Qian, and Qian wrote them down one by one.

Finally, the first pot of stewed food came out. Gu Yin couldn't wait to take a bite, and the aroma of stewed food immediately filled her mouth without any strange smell.

It worked!

Gu Yin asked everyone to have a taste, and then she ate all the braised ingredients and couldn't stop.

Not to mention the others, who all praised the braised food and exclaimed that it was a divine delicacy.

"Once you become proficient in it, you can braise more ingredients, not to mention pig ears and pig trotters. You can also braise some vegetarian dishes, such as lotus roots and edamame." Finally putting down his chopsticks, Gu Yin said to Qian.

“Vegetarian dishes can also be braised?” Qian was surprised.

"Of course, everything can be braised. Vegetarian dishes are sometimes tastier than meat ones." Gu Yin replied with a clenched fist.

"Really? Then next time Sister Qian makes it, let me taste it." Zhenzhu, who was still chewing the braised large intestine, interrupted vaguely with a smile.

Qian nodded happily and looked at the satisfied smile on the young lady's face as she ate the delicious food. She also wanted to make more and better food so that the young lady would have more choices in the future.

"The most important brine is ready. What are your plans? Where are you going to sell it?"

"We have a small courtyard in the west district of the county town. We plan to make braised food there and set up a stall at the entrance of the alley." Aunt Chen answered without waiting for Qian to speak. This was what they had discussed in the past few days.

"It's a good arrangement. We'll start with a small business and then expand it once it's established."

Originally, the business of making braised food can be run with one stall at a time. If you take too big a step at once, you may easily get into trouble.

Maybe they can go further if they work steadily and step by step. Gu Yin hopes from the bottom of her heart that they can make this small business a success and run it for the long term.

After solving the problem of braised food, Gu Yin did not stay in the manor any longer and told Xiao Lizi to drive the carriage back to the county government office.

When they were almost halfway back, the sky suddenly turned gloomy, a sign of an impending storm.

Looking at the darkness in the distance, Gu Yin wanted to cry but had no tears. If there had been a weather forecast, she wouldn't have ended up in this situation.

There's no village or shop nearby, and I don't know if the carriage can hold up.

"Drive, drive, drive..."

The horses began to get restless, but Little Leo waved the whip steadily and quickly, urging the carriage to move forward quickly, hoping that it could go faster and faster. Even if he couldn't make it back to the county government office, at least he could get to where there were people and take a break from the rain.

The clouds were getting darker and darker, and the light was getting dimmer and dimmer. Only Gu Yin's carriage was running wildly on the desolate road. The journey seemed so far away...

Finally, when they were halfway through the journey, heavy rain began to fall, and the raindrops hit the carriage with a crackling sound.

"Xu..."

Suddenly, the carriage stopped.

"What's wrong?" Pearl lifted a corner of the car curtain and asked.

"Miss, someone is stopping the car ahead." Little Leo's voice sounded at the same time.
