Chapter 34: breakthrough
Chapter 34 Breakthrough
Yu Wan entered the house and saw lights hung on the corridor, but no one was there.
“Where are Xiao Bo and the others?”
"Miss, they are all having dinner, and they just finished laying your bedroom." Uncle Shu said respectfully.
“Oh, then just ask Aunt Qiu to bring me rice and water.”
"Okay, old slave, let's go now." Uncle Shu went to the kitchen.
Yu Wan opened the door to the courtyard. There were lights inside. She walked into the courtyard and was hit by the refreshing fragrance of osmanthus.
In the middle of the yard, a huge osmanthus tree has begun to bloom. After the rice harvest comes August, which is when the sweet-scented osmanthus blooms.
She also chose this house because of the sweet-scented osmanthus tree. It suited her very well.
Yu Wan walked through the small garden in the courtyard. The courtyard was full of unknown flowers, many of which had withered, leaving only flower seeds.
This courtyard is similar to those in the town. It is a small courtyard with three main rooms in the middle, one wing room on each side, and wing rooms on the left and right sides. The rain corridor forms a shape from the entrance gate, connecting to the courtyard.
The entire house is paved with stone slabs, and each yard is paved with blue-white granite. It is very comfortable to step on the stone slabs in summer.
Yu Wan stepped on the granite, which could reflect light at night, so she was not afraid of falling when walking at night.
Yu Wan walked up the stairs to the main room. She opened the door, and the middle room became a living room, with good tables, chairs and benches arranged in a regular manner.
She sat down and then opened the bedroom on the right. The room was very warmly decorated. On the right side of the door was a dressing table and a bed, all in lavender tones.
The upper right corner is the wardrobe, and going down is a large cabinet. Opposite the bed is a row of low cabinets for easy storage of things. In the lower left corner is the door into the penthouse. Going up again, there is a window on the left wall with lavender curtains.
Three feet below the window and between the bed is a round table with four chairs. There are teapots, cups, and an oil lamp on the table.
Yu Wan was very satisfied. It was different in the county. Some of the servants were sold from wealthy families. She was an expert in this area and did not need to worry about her as the master.
Yu Wan saw that there was a bookcase missing in the room, so she asked Uncle Xiao to buy it tomorrow and make up for it.
After a while, Aunt Qiu brought food and water. She put the food and water away, opened the closet, took out Yu Wan's pajamas and put them away, then waited next to Yu Wan.
"Miss, is this food to your liking?" Aunt Qiu saw that Yu Wan had no appetite, so she ate a little.
“Well, it’s a bit unpalatable. I’ll teach them how to cook tomorrow. I bought them all, trained them and put them in the restaurant.”
Yu Wan paid for each dish, and it looks good. If chili sauce is added, the taste will not be overstated, and it will definitely sell better.
The people Yu Wan bought were basically chefs. Not only were the chefs hired from outside expensive, they were also hard to find if she was not familiar with them, and they didn't last long.
The people who bought it were different, they were all her own, and they didn't dare to betray her with the deed of sale in her hands.
She plans to train at home in the past few days and then prepare to open the business.
Aunt Qiu was not surprised when she heard Yu Wan talk about opening a restaurant. They were all old people in the world. Even though the master was young, he came to the county town alone to buy such a large property. He should not be underestimated. There is also the aura about her that is awe-inspiring.
"Miss, can this slave learn?" Aunt Qiu was very worried. She also liked cooking. Her ancestor was an imperial cook, but she was demoted to her hometown for committing a crime.
Later, her family fell into decline and she was forced to marry, but she did not want to fall into a wolf's den. Her husband's family used her to learn the cooking skills passed down from her family. He found an unruly excuse for her and sold her. After several twists and turns, she was now bought back by Yu Wan.
"Of course. Whether you go to a restaurant or stay with me from now on, you must learn to cook. You are also tired today, go down and rest."
"Okay, thank you, miss." Aunt Qiu was about to kneel down and kowtow, but Yu Wan held her back.
Yu Wan waved her hand and said, "My family is from the countryside, so we don't need these false courtesy, just get things done."
"Okay, that slave has left." Aunt Qiu went out with the plate.
Miss, you are so strong!
After Aunt Qiu left, Yu Wan took a bath, went to bed and read for a while, then turned off the light.
Then he entered the space, fed the little snake and two little white tigers, and then harvested a crop of rice and pepper.
Yu Wan has tried that the spiritual spring in the space can ripen crops. The crops mature faster after being watered by the spiritual spring. So she planted more of what she had harvested before, and she could harvest another crop in three days.
She piled the peppers and packed the rice in the cloth bags she had asked Aunt Wu to sew before.
The yields harvested in this space are much higher than those outside, and the grains are plump and large. Even the peppers are half as big.
This way Yu Wan doesn’t have to worry about not having enough pepper.
After finishing this, Yu Wan practiced some practice in the space before going to bed. By the way, she roasted a chicken for the little snake. She was so happy that the little snake flew around in the space.
The next day, Yu Wan got up early, ran to the yard, and sat down to practice until the spiritual energy in her Dantian was clean.
When the rising sunlight hit Yu Wan, a large amount of spiritual energy swarmed in. She quickly ran her skills and absorbed the spiritual energy.
Suddenly, she felt a swelling and pain in her Dantian, as if her Dantian was about to swell.
Yu Wan didn’t know what was going on, so she had to grit her teeth and run the technique.
After a long time, she seemed to hear a "pop" sound in her Dantian, and the excess spiritual energy seemed to find an outlet and flowed to all parts of her body. Her body suddenly felt refreshed, and she now felt that her body was full of infinite power.
“Is this a breakthrough?”
No matter how stupid she was, Yu Wan knew that this was a breakthrough. Sure enough, her brain felt swollen and painful, and rows of words appeared in her mind, connecting with the first level of skills.
Yu Wan immediately read it carefully, and then followed the oral instructions on the second level of exercises to activate the spiritual energy in the body, and it was true!
An hour later, Yu Wan got up and saw Aunt Qiu standing aside. She smiled slightly at Aunt Qiu, who also knew that she would not be disturbed by others standing here.
“Miss, breakfast has been brought, and my servant will bring you bath water right away.”
Yu Wan could smell the stench on her body now, and she nodded sheepishly.
It turns out that this is the legendary pan-marrow baptism. Although Yu Wan'er has the memory, it's one thing to experience it myself.
Yu Wan took a shower and changed clothes comfortably, and came to the kitchen after eating.
In the kitchen, everyone else is there except Uncle Shu.
Today all nine people put on new clothes and were cleanly washed. They were no longer as slovenly as they were yesterday.
"Well, you are all here. Today I will teach you how to learn to cook the dishes that will be served in my restaurant in the future. If you want to learn to be a chef in the restaurant, please listen to me carefully."
When the nine people heard it, they were very willing. They had done this business themselves, so they naturally liked it. Everyone was very curious when they heard Yu Wan say there was a new way to do it.
