Chapter 144 Scholar

The Luo family officially gave Liu Tu's family a bride, worth 18,000 yuan and silk, and eight kinds of gold and silver jewelry worth 8,000 yuan. It can be said that the Luo family's bride is already top-notch among ordinary people in Changbai Township.

Liu Tu was not polite, so he would collect as much as he gave.

This is also a feature of this era. The matchmaker has long asked the woman about the plagiarism and then agreed on the quantity. However, the woman did not accept all of these gifts, and they had to prepare a dowry for their daughter. Women who did not have a dowry will have a very lack of status in their husband's family after they got married.

But when the dowry entered the door, the law clearly stated that the private property belonging to the bride, neither the husband nor the husband's family had the right to deal with it. Even if the woman died in the future, if there were no children, the dowry could even be returned to the parents' family, and the husband's family had no right to deal with it.

It is said that women have a high status during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. One of the more critical reasons is that women have dowry, money, and economy, so they naturally have status.

Liu Tu received a generous bride gift, but he was not polite. He first took the money to get a marriage for one of his sons, and then ran to Zhangqiu County to open a restaurant.

After all, there is a prospective son-in-law who is the head of the strong team in the county government, so how could Liu Tu let go of such resources?

The new restaurant is open in the west market of Zhangqiucheng. There is a row of noodle restaurants and restaurants, which is considered the catering center of Zhangqiucheng. Although the shops are generally small, there is nothing else to treat guests to dinner.

With Luo Cunxiao coming forward, the market order gave a lot of care, set up an old shop, cleaned it up briefly, and then put some things in place, and then chose an auspicious day to open it.

When the Liu family came to the county town to open a store, there were still advantages. First, there were people in the county government, and second, Liu Tu was originally a butcher, who killed pigs and sheep, and the materials were more convenient.

It is said that Liu Sanniang can not only dance with two five-pound butcher knifes, but also drag a pig with one hand, but even cook.

Luo Cunxiao even brought several newly made iron pots from the Luo family's blacksmith shop to the Liu family's shop like treasures, and also told Liu Sanniang some of Luo Cheng's usual recipes.

When the new store opened, Luo Cheng, a relative, naturally came to support him.

So he brought his brothers and a few of them to have a meal.

The store is actually not big, with a single seat on the first floor lobby and a private room on the second floor. The business is also quite complicated, and it sells breakfast and lunch and meals, selling pasta and snacks, cooked roast chicken, etc., and even wine.

In short, the Liu family’s business operations fully reflect the business philosophy of small local businesses in this era, doing everything. Anyway, it is a restaurant, but as long as you want to eat, you can find ways to provide satisfaction here.

However, Luo Cheng felt that the level of the service level in the store was not good. I don’t know where the woman and man were invited to serve the food in the store. After asking, Luo Cunxiao said that it was Liu Sanniang’s brothers and sisters, and younger brothers and sisters.

The Liu family is also prosperous, and the butcher's family may have more oil and water to make snacks, so they are all big and thick.

Their family opened a store and did not hire outsiders at all.

Even after Liu Tu sold the meat, he would come over to play the role of a guest at the club.

Liu Sanniang is the chef and shopkeeper of the shop.

There were some wooden signs hanging on the wall of the hall entrance, and some vegetable signs were written on it. Luo Cheng looked familiar with the words, and after asking, he realized that they were all written by Luo Cunxiao and asked his father.

After scanning it, I found that it was all simple wine, dishes and pasta, and it was not special.

"Give a large plate of cold pork ear shreds, then cut pork head meat with cold, then fry pork liver, and then stew pig trotters." The third brother sat down and ordered several meat dishes in one breath. "I treat you today, so don't be polite."

My eldest brother-in-law Zhou Dewei ordered another grilled lamb chop.

The second brother-in-law Wang Ziming smiled and said to Luo Chengdao, "I heard that the fourth brother has made some beef, so we can stew some beef."

While signing up for the future mother-in-law at the counter there, the fourth brother said with a bitter face, "You are so good at eating. You can't order a few vegetarian ones."

"Who will choose the simple things when you go to a restaurant?" said the third brother-in-law Zhao Gui.

"Get a fish." Luo Cheng smiled.

"There are fish, what fish should I eat, carp or crucian carp or what? What are the boiled and stewed? "

In ancient times, people liked to eat sashimi when eating fish, which was called fish sashimi.

However, Luo Cheng was worried. What if he could eat the freshwater fish sashimi? It is said that there was a general in the Han Dynasty who died of illness after eating the fish sashimi.

"Cook a big carp and kill the live fish that is slaughtered. Then make some fresh river shrimp, add some flour and fry it."

"Old Wu can eat it." Luo Si said, "Xiao Liu, what are you eating?"

"Fifth Brother, I want to steam cakes." Xiao Liu was really good.

And the fourth brother-in-law Zhou Xin asked, "Is there any game from birds and animals?"

"No." The fourth brother said stingyly.

"Don't be stingy, get some venison, rabbits, pigeons, etc."

"No."

Luo Cheng took out a small piece of golden leaf from his purse, "Don't worry, it won't be eaten in vain. We are here to support us, not to ruin the situation."

When the fourth brother saw Jinzi, he immediately smiled and put away the golden leaves, "I remembered that some are some, some are some, and the deer just sent by hunters in the morning, traps, and still alive. There are also a few pigeons and some rabbits."

Everyone at the table suddenly laughed.

"This fourth brother hasn't welcomed Liu Sanniang into the door yet, but he is already focused on the Liu family."

Everyone was talking and laughing, and then three people walked in from outside.

The leader was a young scholar, wearing a white Confucian robe, followed by two people, one looked like Changsui and the other looked like a coachman.

Come in and take a look.

The young man who looked like this shouted, "My man, are there any private room?"

"Yes, the private room upstairs, please."

But the scholar said, "No need, I see it's quite lively downstairs, so let's arrange a table for us upstairs."

Liu Sanniang's elder brother led the three of them to an empty table next to Luo Cheng and others.

"What are you eating? Our store has all kinds of delicacies, and there are all those who fly in the sky and run in the water. And our store also has cooking, which is the only one."

"There is also beef." Seeing that the three of them were not as good as those who were short of money, Liu added another sentence.

"What about the beef jerky sold from outside the border?" asked the scholar.

"How is it possible? What's the food for jerky? Just like Chai, I'm talking about this fresh beef that just slaughtered."

"Fresh beef? Can you get fresh beef in the store? Is it a private slaughter? Wouldn't it be illegal?"

"You will ask more questions about how you get it, but it is guaranteed to be fresh!"

The young scholar smiled slightly, "Is that so, let's have some beef."

"Our store has boiled beef, stewed beef brisket with radish, stir-fried beef, beef bone soup, boiled beef balls, fried steak... It is sure to be delicious!"

"That's all!" The scholar still had that slight smile.
