After the vicious adoptive mother gave up, the scumbag children regretted it

Chapter 190 Yang Lingzhao is mentally ill

With Shen Huai'en's hospitality, Shen Nanzhi arranged the food and entertained the prefect well.

She cooked a table full of dishes made from new crops, including corn stewed with pork ribs, big bones stewed with potatoes, stir-fried shredded potatoes, pot-sticked corn and chicken, and wild vegetable corn dough dumplings...

The women in the village all followed suit. It was the first time they knew that these new crops could be used to make so many dishes.

The sweet potatoes are also cut into pieces and fried until golden brown, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It is also a dish. Add shredded potato meatballs and sprinkle with some sesame seeds, pepper and salt. The aroma wafts from far away.

The children were so greedy that they were circling around the stove, their mouths watering. Shen Nanzhi gave them some food one by one and sent them away.

The aunts also had some, and they all praised the meal, saying it was so delicious!

It just consumes too much oil. I can make it during the Chinese New Year, but forget about it on other days.

The aunts were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling, thinking that all the grain in their own cellar could be made into delicious food, which was much more delicious than eating coarse grains such as sorghum rice.

Yang Xu had been walking for a long time and was very hungry. He came in smelling the aroma and said, "What delicious food are you making? I can smell the aroma from a distance."

Shen Nanzhi invited him to sit down. "The food will be ready soon. It smells good and tastes even better. If it can be served in the imperial kitchen and on the emperor's table, it will be a blessing for our village."

Magistrate Cao and several other officials were accompanying them. Shen Huai'en was also at their table. Yang Lingzhao felt a little jealous. A butler was actually so talented and learned that he was better than her.

But I couldn't get angry in front of my father, so I endured the discomfort.

Shen Nanzhi took the opportunity to take out the corn wine, which was the main source of money. "Your Excellency, please try the golden wine brewed from corn. I guarantee that you will be satisfied with it."

“Can these crops also be used to make wine?”

"Yes, sweet potatoes can be stewed and stuffed with corn. Potatoes are not good. They are more often eaten as vegetables. They are delicious when stir-fried, cooked cold, or stewed."

Shen Huai'en poured wine for everyone, "Let's toast to the prefect first. Thank you for taking the time to come to our small village. I'll drink first as a token of my respect."

Prefect Yang also took a sip, which made him grit his teeth at the spiciness. He then exhaled with satisfaction, "It's a strong drink, but I like it. Let's all start drinking together, don't just focus on drinking."

Mainly because he was hungry, as soon as Magistrate Yang picked up his chopsticks, his eyes lit up. The food was delicious. Each dish had a different flavor, different from the meals he had eaten before, but the taste was really good.

The other officials also buried their heads in their food. The only sound at the table was the sound of eating. They even forgot to toast.

After eating and drinking, Yang Zhifu looked very satisfied, even more comfortable than after the battle with his concubine. "Are these dishes made from new crops?"

"Yes, it's easy to make and you'll learn it once you see it. I apologize for the poor hospitality, sirs."

"It's already very good. Well, Miss Shen, you make a recipe and I'll present it to the emperor. I'm sure he will like it.

Select the best ones now, and I will personally send them to the capital to present to the emperor."

Shen Nanzhi's eyes curved with joy, "Thank you for your hard work, sir. I'll get ready right away. Huai En, entertain all the lords."

"it is good."

After the meal, the prefect took a rest for a while, then hurried away with a cart of new crops, corn wine, and sweet potato stew prepared by Shen Nanzhi.

If the emperor is satisfied with this, promotion will be a piece of cake, right?

Magistrate Yang works so hard just to get promoted.

As soon as he left, Yang Lingzhao called himself the king again. He found Shen Nanzhi and said, "Miss Shen, there is something I think you should do."

"what's up?"

Shen Nanzhi looked at his troubled expression and felt that he couldn't say anything good.

Sure enough, Yang Lingzhao said: "When you married to the neighboring village, you are also considered a member of their village. You can't be selfish and only care about your natal village and ignore them.

Your village has so much harvest, why don't you send 10,000 kilograms of grain to the neighboring village? It will save them from starvation and also make you more famous, what do you think? "

Shen Nanzhi: "..."

If he wasn't the son of the prefect, he would have been slapped in the face. How could he say such words?

"you are not willing?"

Yang Lingzhao couldn't help but frowning when he saw that she didn't say anything. She was disobeying him and not listening to his orders. She was indeed not docile enough and lacked training.

Shen Nanzhi smiled, with a cold look in his eyes. He answered the question irrelevantly, saying, "Mr. Yang, you are the son of a prefect. Your family must be well-fed, with a full granary and a fortune. Why don't you give alms to the people of the city, so that they can live a good life and have a good reputation as a bodhisattva descended from the earth? What do you think?"

Yang Lingzhao's face turned ugly, and he understood the sarcasm in her words, "Miss Shen, as a woman, you must know what the three obediences and four virtues are, and be obedient and virtuous. If you are like this, who would dare to marry you in the future?"

Shen Nanzhi was so angry that he laughed. This kid has a mental illness, and it's a serious one.

"Young Master Yang, you probably forgot who saved you from the wild boar's mouth. It was me, your woman. I forgot to ask you for a thank you gift. Also, please give me one thousand taels of silver for the food and lodging expenses for you and your servants here.

I guess the prefect's son won't default on his debt, right?"

"You want money from me?"

Yang Lingzhao couldn't believe it, how dare she?

Why not?

Shen Nanzhi can even talk to his father, so does he still need to consider the mood of his son?

This made her unhappy, so she stopped producing corn wine. What can he offer to the emperor?

The two of them were on edge in an instant, making the people around them dare not breathe. Nan Zhi was too hot-tempered. She dared to contradict the prefect in person? What should she do?

Shen Huai'en stared at Yang Lingzhao coldly, waiting for Shen Nanzhi to give the order before throwing him out. How could he have the nerve to ask Nanzhi to send food to the next village?

Shen Nanzhi suddenly laughed, breaking the deadlock, "Young Master Yang, look at my temper, I couldn't control it for a while, I'm sorry.

I think what you just said makes sense, Young Master Yang. You are also sympathetic to the people and have good intentions."

Yang Lingzhao also went with the flow, mainly because they were on someone else's territory, and Shen Nanzhi's eyes were too cold and too strong, as if she didn't take him seriously at all, which made Yang Lingzhao feel uneasy.

"It's good that you know it. I won't argue with a woman like you."

"That's right. Young Master Yang is the son of the prefect. He is a man of high moral character, well-educated and well-mannered. How could a village woman offend him?"

Yang Lingzhao was proud for a moment, thinking that she was sensible and knew her identity, and he felt that he was capable, "Then you should arrange the food issue as soon as possible. You should be generous and not be so petty. This young master is also doing this for your own good!"

Shen Nanzhi smiled sarcastically, "Thank you for doing this for me, thank you all your ancestors," "Since Young Master Yang is doing this for me, I am really honored. Why don't you do more for me? Nanzhi will be grateful."

"What do you want me to do for you?"

Yang Lingzhao thought, if it wasn't a very difficult task, he would just help her do it and let her know how powerful he is.
