Chapter 190: Know What to Do
EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Apart from the incense and wax, there was also a bag of pastries, such as mung bean cakes and osmanthus cakes, which cost 30 copper coins per catty.
He bought ten chickens and ten ducks and filled two cages. They were still a little dirty.
After Chu Xing finished drinking the tea, he came over to help carry the chickens and ducks into the courtyard and put them in the chicken shed that had not been used for a long time.
“There are enough chickens and ducks now.” Madam Liu looked at the flock of chickens and ducks. Although she said it calmly, she was very surprised in her heart. How much money was this? Just one chicken would probably cost 70 to 80 copper coins. These chickens and ducks would cost at least one or two strings of money.
She then looked at the basket of wooden roots that Chu Xing had brought in.
“Xing, wait, what is this?” Madam Liu walked over and picked up the wooden root. She looked at it for a long time but still could not understand.
“Third Aunt, Brother Heng bought these from the mountains. There are also some dried mushrooms. He said that this is called Chinese yam. It tastes very good when stewed with chicken. Actually, I’ve never eaten it before. Anyway,
Brother Heng said it’s good and it’s not expensive.”
Hearing that it was not expensive, Madam Liu felt relieved.
She helped bring the dried mushrooms in.
“Third Aunt, we still need fish. Brother Heng said he’ll buy it tomorrow morning. Otherwise, if we buy it now, they’ll be dead and not fresh.”
Madam Liu had already calmed down from her surprise. The things she bought seemed to be needed for the dishes she had ordered. She thought that Chu Heng knew what to do.
Since Chu Heng knew what was going on, she did not have to worry too much. After all, she was afraid that Chu Heng and Madam Ye would spend money recklessly.
She could tell that Ye Muyu really did not know how to prepare a banquet, let alone what dishes to prepare.
She was not surprised. Since she did not need to worry about Chu Heng, she turned around and walked to Ye Muyu’s side. “Third Daughter-in-law, follow me. I’ll tell you when these dishes should be served and how to cook them.” “Alright, Mother.” Ye Muyu nodded.
Seeing that Ye Muyu was obedient and sensible, Madam Liu was even more satisfied.
Chu Xing moved along with her, and she explained everything to him. Ye Muyu slowly understood what the so-called eight dishes meant.
There were four meat dishes and four vegetarian dishes in the eight bowls. The four meat dishes were pork trotters, crispy meat, braised meat, and square meat.
The four vegetarian dishes were usually radish, vermicelli, tofu, and meatballs.
Although it was just these, the combination was flexible, and eight dishes were enough.
Obviously, with Chu Heng’s status as a scholar, the ordinary eight dishes would not be suitable for his status. Therefore, the eight bowls prepared by the Chu family this time were very sumptuous. Not only were there many vegetarian dishes but there was also a lot of meat.
In the past, the village had done the best when Chu Heng was admitted as a scholar. At that time, they did not kill chickens or ducks. They only prepared pork and mixed meat. Because of the large amount, they were praised by the villagers for a long time.

Chu Heng obviously did not want to do it casually anymore. He would also prepare the best food in the house to invite the ancestors back to taste it. With Chu Heng’s current wealth, he naturally would not be stingy.
Ye Muyu nodded to show that she understood, and Madam Liu’s mood improved a lot.
Seeing that Chu Xing had finished cleaning the mule cart and was about to rush to the county, Ye Muyu handed him a bag of pastries. “Ah Xing, you’ve worked hard. Take it to eat on the way.”
“Sister-in-law, I’m really not hungry. I don’t want any pastries.” Chu Xing rubbed his stomach. He had eaten too much at the Fragrance Restaurant in the county. Now, he could not even eat the pastries.
“Sister-in-law, when Brother Heng comes back later, he has good news to tell you. I also followed Brother Heng and had a good meal. I’m really not hungry.” Chu Xing did not directly tell her about the success of the business. He felt that this should be a surprise for his sister-in-law..
