The blessing of the splendid farm family is married to the world

Chapter 108
"Zong Che, you're so insulting," Ji Chengyu almost pointed at Zong Che's nose and cursed, "Wait, don't let me catch you."

Zong Che: "Is there still time to catch others? Master Ji, you should take off that hat on your head first."

Ji Chengyu was so angry that he was trembling all over, unable to say a word, he staggered and ran away from the door.

An Xu finished cooking and was leading Rongcheng to eat spicy duck heads at the small stone table outside the kitchen. Before he had finished eating one, Yan Zi hurried over.

"what happened?"

Yanzi said: "Miss, the Eldest Young Master and Mr. Ji had a quarrel, and the little rotor said that Mr. Ji was so angry that he almost tripped over the threshold when he went out."

Before he finished speaking, a voice came from behind: "What are you talking about?"

Zong Che walked into the Moon Gate with his hands behind his back, looking very calm, not at all like he had quarreled with anyone.

An Xu asked: "It's really a quarrel, why?"

Zong Che sat down on the stone bench next to An Xu, and said, "I just don't like that person."

Then he also took a duck head from the basin on the table, and ate the duck head like An Xu and the others.

An Xu: "Is it really okay for you to offend your colleagues so casually?"

Some people are really narrow-minded, and they can remember a sentence wrong for a lifetime, and then they get in trouble. She grew up under the teaching of her grandfather since she was a child. Even if she doesn't do business, she still believes in doing good to others and doing good to herself. .

And the typical negative teaching material that grandfather often cited is Su Shi. Su Shi has been on the road of being demoted in his later years. A large part of the reason is that he loves to laugh at people.

At that time, there was a man named Zhang Dun. It is said that when he was born, he was almost drowned by his mother in the urinal. He was very taboo about this matter. Su Shi had a free and easy personality, and it might be difficult to understand the pain of being abandoned by his mother when he was just born. , often joked about it with Zhang Dun.

Zhang Dun always remembered him, and demoted the Su Shi brothers after paying homage to the prime minister.

Of course, according to historical records, the reason why the Su Shi brothers were demoted was caused by political disputes between the new party and the old party.

But the place where Su Shi was demoted that time was Zhanzhou, what was his character?Zi Zhan.

Grandpa told An Xu that there was a saying that Zhang Dun was referring to the place of relegation for Su Shi by looking at the same characters.

Even if it does not refer to the place of relegation in this way, Zhanzhou at that time was Hainan Island. In the eyes of the people of the Song Dynasty, it was a completely uncivilized place.

Isn't this a deep hatred?

Sometimes, you are not afraid of offending people, but you are afraid of offending a narrow-minded person.

An Xu told Zong Che and Rong Cheng about Su Shi as a short story, reminding them of the principle of having many friends, many roads, and many enemies, many walls.

Especially in officialdom.

Zong Che missed the point, and asked: "The great writer you are talking about, what works can be called so?"

The Ming Dynasty also had Confucianism, but the history after the Warring States Period was different from the history of Anxu's motherland.

An Xu glanced at him. Although there were many Wen Zong writers in the history of the Ming Dynasty, according to what An Xu saw, there were really few who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Su Shi.

"Works? There are many, but I only remember one word and two sentences."

"What word?" Rongcheng also became curious. They had just started the subject of Ci during this period of time, but the gentlemen said that this is not important, so they don't need to spend too much time.

An Xu thought for a while, and then wanted to recite the Mid-Autumn Festival nouns that he had memorized hundreds of times in high school, "Shui Tiao Ge Tou", but as soon as he opened his mouth, he yelled: "When will the bright moon come? Ask the wine to the sky, um, What should be the next palace in the sky, why is it in the world?"

At first, Rong Cheng thought that the great writer Su Shi was made up by his sister. After hearing these words, he said with a smile: "Although my sister only remembers a few words, I can hear it. I can't write such a few words without solid foundation. Sister, Is there any more?"

Zong Che saw that she was racking her brains and couldn't figure it out, so she smiled lightly and said nothing.

But one thing is certain, before she became a ghost, the place she lived in may be very different from their world.

"Anyway, the last sentence is, I hope you will live a long life and enjoy the beauty of a thousand miles."

Rong Cheng was also funny, and said, "Sister, don't you still remember a few sentences?"

An Xu said: "You know what life is like everywhere, it should be like Feihong stepping on slush."

Rong Cheng said: "This is poetry."

An Xu: "Hold the yellow on the left, hold the blue sky on the right, look northwest, and shoot Sirius."

"What a magnificent ambition," Rong Cheng admired, and finally couldn't help asking: "Sister, where did you hear about it? Where is this Su Shi from? Why didn't he come to the capital?"

An Xu: How do I know.

Zong Che said with a smile: "Maybe I heard it from the merchant, so don't ask any more questions, we will meet each other by fate."

Rongcheng was speechless for a while, why did Brother Che say something else.

An Xu smiled, laughed and said, "Yes, Che'er is right."

Before he knew it, it was getting late, and the afternoon was almost over, and An Xu remembered that Shen Xiao, who said he came to Zhuangyuan Mansion to look for her this afternoon, had neither a sign nor a letter.

In the twilight, Shen Xiao rode a horse and entered the city beside the carriage of the Duke's Mansion, and seeing the red lanterns lit outside the shops, he suddenly remembered that when he said goodbye in the morning, he made an appointment with Xu'er to find her this afternoon.

He originally wanted to take her to play outside the city, but he completely forgot about other things.

Shen Xiao was very embarrassed, and wanted to go to Zhuangyuan Mansion when he got home, but after thinking about it, it was inconvenient to go at this hour, so he called the East Building and asked him to deliver a letter to An Xu.

It's just that he took a free trip to the east building, and when he came back, he still had the impromptu letter written by Shen Xiao in his hand.

"Why didn't you send it out?" Shen Xiao had just washed up and changed into his normal home clothes.

Dong Lou said: "The Zhuangyuan Mansion is closed, I finally knocked on the door, but the gatekeeper said that the masters have already fallen asleep, so they won't hand it over."

Shen Xiao then took the letter and explained it in person tomorrow.

----

"Miss Partridge, you have to go out so early." In the misty morning, a corner door of Zhuangyuan's mansion opened, and a girl in a water-red shirt and a simple bun came out from inside.

She smiled and nodded to the doorman.

Zhuangyuan's mansion is not considered a big mansion, so unlike the Duke's family, where only the gatekeepers can form a Cuju team, their family has only one gatekeeper.

He is an old man in his 50s.

The old man felt less sleepy and was vigilant. The guard lived in a room not far away. If there was anything urgent, just call.

"The stewed meat made by Miss yesterday is really delicious. The little old man has nothing to thank for it. He will carve a wood carving. I carved a few trinkets yesterday. You can show the lady."

The partridge saw that it was a woodcut Chinese zodiac, there were three or four ponies and monkeys.

"Can this day be engraved?"

The janitor smiled and said, "It's very rough. I can carve one in half an hour."

The partridge accepted it, and said: "I won't accept it in the future, don't carve any more."

The gatekeeper repeatedly agreed, "It's not a good thing, the lady doesn't like it, so it's the same for you to play with it. Otherwise, I'll just eat the lady's reward, and I feel sorry."

The partridge smiled, put a few woodcuts in the basket, and walked out the door.

When she was at home, she was often the one who bought vegetables. After getting familiar with the capital these two days, she went out and went straight to the outer city. At the vegetable market that had just opened, she bought some fresh hind legs, two pieces of tofu, and wanted to buy Thousands of sheets.

Who knew that the stall owner was stunned by the question.

"What is a thousand sheets?" The tofu seller cleaned everything up neatly, with a white towel on his shoulders.

Partridge only chose his tofu because he was cleaner than other tofu sellers, but he didn't even know about a thousand pieces.

Dried tofu, yuba, thousand sheets, frozen tofu, and one soybean can be eaten in a variety of ways. This has been spread in Linhe Village for a long time, and it is not a secret at all.

"That is, dry the tofu brains and make them one by one." Partridge explained.

Not only was the man selling tofu stunned, but the tofu stalls not far away didn't understand what he said.

"Then do you have yuba?"

"You have to go to the dry goods store to buy yuba," the man said.

Partridge had no choice but to go to another vegetable market. There were a few stalls selling tofu there, but they didn't even know about it from the beginning to the end.

It's not that there are people from all over the capital, why are such affordable and delicious things not passed on now?
"Girl, we don't know what you asked." A tofu seller said, "Why don't you go to the dry goods store and ask."

The dry goods store knows it, they also know that thousands of sheets are perishable, only bean curd sticks.

After thinking for a while, the partridge went back to the vegetable market in the east, found the man selling tofu at the beginning, and said, "I'll tell you how to make what we want. You can go home and make it now. I'll call someone over at noon." Pick."

The man was a little surprised, "Since the girl knows, why don't you do it yourself?"

Partridge frowned, "My lady will use it at noon, it's time, how can I have the time to buy beans and soak beans? Do you want to learn?"

The stall owners not far away pricked up their ears when they heard this.

Several of them wanted to say, if he doesn't learn, let's learn.

Fortunately, the girl is a showy person, and she didn't deliberately lower her voice when she spoke. Although she didn't hear clearly, she knew what Qian Zhang did.

It's really the same as what the girl said at the beginning. The key point is to press out more water.

After listening to the man, he bowed deeply.

The partridge nodded, turned around and left.

She had already bought everything she needed to buy when she ran back and forth between the two vegetable markets.

After walking not far away, I only heard the voice behind me jokingly: "Liu Yuan, you are lucky today, you got a good craft for nothing."

"The maid sister thinks he is handsome, but she doesn't know that in our vegetable market, I'm good at making tofu."

The partridge laughed, and the peddlers in the capital didn't dare to talk nonsense.

But she is just a servant girl, if she behaves rightly, no one will pay attention to her reputation, and the servant girl doesn't have to care too much about it.

When we returned home, the sky was already bright, the sky in the east was red, and the transparent red sun was about to jump out of the clouds.

"Why don't you let me in? I know he's at home now, so call him out, and I'll have to hear him tell me not to let me in."

As soon as he arrived at the door, he heard a crisp sound, and the partridge looked suspiciously.
