"Your massage skills are really good." Gu Xiaoyou said lazily.

"As long as Miss likes it," Zhixia said with a smile, massaging Gu Xiaoyou more carefully.

"Press one more stick of incense and you can rest. You're tired after looking at the store for a day." Gu Xiaoyou said with some confusion.

"I just cut paper, how tired can I be?" Zhixia replied.

"...It's too tiring to do anything." Gu Xiaoyou's eyelids started to tremble and he said vaguely.

"My slave didn't do anything. Speaking of the shop, there are new customers in the shop today. The new tricks you taught me are very popular." Zhixia happily shared with Gu Xiaoyou what happened during the day while massaging.

Interesting facts.

After talking for a long time, Gu Xiaoyou didn't make a sound. Zhixia blinked and leaned over to take a look. Her young lady had already fallen asleep.

Zhixia quickly put the quilt on Gu Xiaoyou's body and tucked it in carefully.

She blew out the candle, quietly stepped back to the door, quietly opened the door and left.

Gu Xiaoyou slept soundly and sweetly until dawn.

Lying on the bed and stretching, Gu Xiaoyou yawned loudly before getting up from the bed.

He took out his cell phone and looked at the time. It read six ten. Gu Xiaoyou rubbed his eyes and sighed: "No matter how tired you are, you can't beat your biological clock."

It seems that she is used to getting up early, and the time to get up is the same as usual.

Just as he was thinking about it, the alarm clock on his phone vibrated. Gu Xiaoyou poked at the screen and said arrogantly: "I woke up earlier than you."

"I am such a hard-working little bee." Gu Xiaoyou sighed and slowly got up from the bed.

"Miss, are you up?" Zhixia's voice came from the door.

"Yeah." Gu Xiaoyou responded and found a dress from the closet and changed into it.

Before she could change her clothes, Zhixia gently opened the door and walked in. She was holding a basin of hot water: "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

"Can't sleep anymore." Gu Xiaoyou put on his belt and yawned again.

Then he walked to the washstand and washed himself carefully. After washing his face, Gu Xiaoyou felt completely refreshed. Although his shoulders were still a little sore, they were much better than yesterday.

After Gu Xiaoyou finished washing, Zhixia picked up the wooden comb and said, "I will comb your hair."

"Put your hair into a stronger bun, I still have to work today." Gu Xiaoyou sat in front of the dressing table and warned.

"Yes, miss." Zhixia combed Gu Xiaoyou's hair deftly with her fingers, and soon she made a nice and strong bun.

Gu Xiaoyou shook his head to make sure that his bun would not fall apart: "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Zhixia put away the comb and said, "What kind of work is Miss going to do today? Can I use a slave to help?"

"It's not a tiring job, I just want to make some food." Gu Xiaoyou said, putting the cloak on the hanger on his body.

Zhixia tied her shirt for her, straightened her clothes and said, "If you need anything, go to the shop and find a slave."

"I know." Gu Xiaoyou pinched Zhixia's face and left the room with her.

When the two people walked to the door, they met Zhou. The three of them got into the carriage together and headed to Anyang Street in Lutan.

After having a simple breakfast at the breakfast shop, Gu Xiaoyou took the recipe to a nearby market.

After spending the whole morning in the market, he first went to the iron shop to order some things and then bought the necessary materials. Then he returned to the shop and prepared to make roast chicken and duck.

She chose a young rooster with fresh and tender meat and fetched water from the well, and soon two buckets of well water came up.

While handling the internal organs of the little rooster, Gu Xiaoyou sighed: "Now that I can get well water so quickly, I have almost forgotten all about the tap water."

As he said that, his hands quickly cleaned the little cock and looked at the ingredients in his hands: "If my parents saw me doing this, their eyes would fly out."

After teasing her parents, Gu Xiaoyou made a basin of salt water according to the proportion and put the little rooster in the basin to marinate.

Wrapping the water basin with a layer of cloth, Gu Xiaoyou sent the water basin to the ice cellar.

Gu Xiaoyou asked the workers to dig the ice cellar when they were repairing the shop. There was an ice cellar in the courtyard of every restaurant. When they first dug it, Mrs. Zhou was still worried about money and felt that one ice cellar was enough.

After the restaurant opened, ice could be used basically everywhere, the ice cellar was used, and the income had already exceeded the cost of building the ice cellar.

Zhou no longer complained and felt that Gu Xiaoyou had a far-sighted vision.

How could she have any foresight? She had no choice but to use an ice cellar without a refrigerator.

With nostalgia for the refrigerator, Gu Xiaoyou put the water basin away and set a twelve-hour alarm on her phone.

She took out the recipe and looked at it for a few times, then went to look at the raw milk that had been placed in the ice cellar in advance: "It seems ready."

She muttered something and took several buckets of raw milk out of the ice cellar.

The raw milk that has been stored in the ice cellar for three days has separated into layers. The upper layer is cream water and the lower layer is skimmed milk.

Gu Xiaoyou used a spoon to carefully scoop out the upper layer of butter water. He scooped out several buckets of raw milk and collected enough for a wooden basin.

Next is Gu Xiaoyou's least favorite part, stirring the cream water.

She sighed resignedly, picked up a big spoon, and kept stirring.

Gu Xiaoyou imagined herself as a mixing machine without emotions. After mixing for who knows how long, she achieved the desired effect.

Use gauze to squeeze out the excess liquid, wash it with ice water, and pour out the water. There will be yellow milk lumps left in the basin.

Gu Xiaoyou took a spoon and scraped the yellow lump of milk, then brought it to his mouth and tasted it. The fragrant and frankincense flavor filled the tip of his tongue.

"It's such pure butter." Gu Xiaoyou praised it. The milk in ancient times was really pure, and the butter made tasted particularly good.

It’s just that making butter is really difficult. It takes a long time to stir and your hands are tired. A bucket of raw milk can only make a little butter.

"It's so troublesome." Gu Xiaoyou put the butter back into the ice cellar for storage, and then started to prepare other ingredients.

In the kitchen, he made a small jar of fake oil using soy sauce, gravy powder, seasonings and a little oil, and then prepared other condiments. Gu Xiaoyou patted the powder on his hand: "The ingredients for roast chicken are almost there.

, it’s time to make the roast duck.”

Gu Xiaoyou brought the duck brought back from the market into the kitchen.

Then clean the duck, boil a large pot of hot water, and scald the duck from top to bottom and all corners with boiling water.

Gu Xiaoyou permed it five times in total before stopping.

Add honey and boiling water and mix well, add rice vinegar and an appropriate amount of rice wine, dip a brush in the juice and brush it onto the duck.

Carefully brushing every place with juice, Gu Xiaoyou made the duck again.
