Tang Dynasty good man

Chapter [-]

With a hot towel on his head, a jug of wine, and a small plate of sweet almonds, he soaked comfortably in his own high-end bathtub.I felt that the blood was gradually rising with the temperature of the water, and it was flowing rapidly in the body. After many days of busy work, I was quickly driven out, and was wrapped in the ecstasy of comfort.

"Sing a song for you, listen well." Patted the beautiful humming second daughter beside her, her small face was like a red apple steamed by hot water, her ivory-like calves patted the surface of the water up and down, and her coiled long legs The hair splashed out at some point, followed by the swaying water waves, the jet-black hair rippling with the waves, paired with red, tender and smooth skin, making the whole person even more enchanting.

Some people are usually not very confident in their musical attainments, they dare to hum when no one is around, and they lose courage when there are too many people, but the only exception is entering the bathhouse, no matter how many people there are, there is no taboo, taking advantage of the comfort of the blood Combined with the good sound gathering effect inside, unscrupulous singing is the most exciting leisure activity.

I don't know what I'm singing, and I can make up the lyrics wherever the tune turns. I can't help it. I haven't sung most of the lyrics for so many years, but I can barely touch the door after reviewing the tune several times.None of this affects the second daughter's appreciation. No matter what I sing, she always gets lost and leans over and climbs on my chest to listen.Occasionally, I adjusted my sitting posture and lowered her body a little bit, and her head fell into the water. Her wet hair stuck to her face and smiled at me.

Usually Ying appeared at this time, Jiu Jin fell asleep, and the mother was in the mood to enjoy it for a while, wearing a large bath towel specially customized for the family by the weaving workshop, Yingying walked in, smiled, and sat in the small pool next to her. After cleaning my body, I laid a big bath towel on the bamboo bed to rest my mind leisurely, then ran to me naked, and jumped into the pool vigorously.The water splashed everywhere, making me and the second daughter all over our faces.

Very satisfied, it proves that after giving birth, Ying is more energetic than before, and it is the most attractive age for a woman.

"How wonderful, it's worth the money!" Squeezing the water droplets on his face, he reached out to touch Ying's lower abdomen, and said with a smile: "I can't tell that I'm a mother at all, and I should have pectoral muscles after two months of exercise." gone."

Ying pushed me playfully.He sat down next to me, buried his body in the water as much as possible, even soaked his chin and exposed his lips, and looked at me with a treacherous look.

"What are you looking at?" He raised his hand and poured a glass of wine to Ying, "I drink it every day, promoting blood circulation and beautifying my complexion. I can't tell my age even when I'm in my 50s or [-]s. I always look like eighteen or nineteen."

"It's too late." Ying smiled and sipped her red wine, "The concubine's [-]th and [-]th birthdays didn't catch up with such a good time, and the second daughter is just right, so I don't dare to delay it, so I just keep it in this pond." .” After speaking, I reached out and took a handful of the second girl.I don't know where I dug it, and the second daughter stuffed her head into the water in embarrassment.That's right, I'll take it out by the way, too.Compared with the same part of Yingdi, it feels good!

I'm a little tired, and I'll die if I take such a bath all the time. I ask the maid to ask the kitchen to fry a piece of cumin meat and roast half a crispy and browned Guokui for supper.

"Don't move, you have a sore back." Pushing the second daughter outward, it's safe to sleep alone.Ying got up and gave the second daughter two hits on the buttocks. The second daughter hummed twice and slipped into her bed. She just turned on the lamp and planned to come over again.

"It's not convenient to carry letters on the right side. The second brother has only communicated four times in the past half a year. I don't know what's going on there." Ying started the conversation in the dark, feeling that she was wrapped in a quilt and moved towards me. move.

"Four times is enough, and it's not in the army. How can there be so many reports. After two years, it will be smooth. Let's all go and have a look, just buy it. I haven't even seen anything." Buying real estate is easy these days. But it always makes people feel that there is no sense of belonging. The key is that the transportation is not developed. It is not easy for the owner to run around his own property. It is not interesting to just look at the land deed book.

"I don't know when." Ying was a little discouraged when I said this, and she sighed sadly, "I heard them talk about the scene in Longyou, the colorful mountains and rocks, the vast desert, the endless grassland, and the people with long hair. Gobi Desert, how can you grow hair on the Gobi Desert?"

"Listen to their nonsense, who has been there? It's not just copying what people say." Deserts and grasslands are nothing more than deserts and grasslands. Long hair on the Gobi Desert is simply nonsense, without any scientific basis.

"Why not? Mrs. Zheng's family also gave away a ball, which she said was food. I don't know how to use it. I'm afraid that if someone eats the hair, if something good or bad happens, I will throw it to the second daughter." Voice, let the second daughter testify.

The second daughter took the opportunity of supporting evidence and climbed into my bed again, nodded vigorously on top of me, and hit my chin once, and the two of them rolled in pain.

"This kid!" Yingti slapped me with her hand, obviously hitting my vitals.

"Let's talk about the hair, let's not do anything if you are a fool." Covering his chin with one hand, and covering his vitals with the other, he quickly started a conversation.

"It is said that it is only when it rains. The local people call it Qingsi Grass. Legend has it that the gods pitied the barren land and cut off their own hair to feed the people. Husband is the young supervisor of agronomy. Why don't you take it to ask tomorrow to see if it can be eaten?" .”

Oh, the gods are benevolent enough in this age.After much deliberation, he couldn't figure out what it was, so he chatted with Ying casually and fell asleep.

Early in the morning, she forgot the gossip about last night, but Keying remembered, and urged the second daughter to show me the green silk grass.Sure enough, it was exactly the same as the hair ball. I pinched it with my hand and immediately got an impression.Facai is delicious and homonymous with "facai". It is an auspicious mouth color and is deeply loved by the urban high-end consumer class. The price is quite high, and it has a reputation of black gold in Qinghai and Gansu.

Because it grows in rock crevices and attaches to grass roots, it is not easy to pick. Local farmers use iron wires to make sledges for violent picking, which seriously damages the vegetation on the edge of the desert. It once became a more lethal sideline at the foot of Helan Mountain than raising goats. One of the chief culprits of soil desertification, a kind of fungus that is prohibited to be excavated in order to protect the environment in the 21st century.

"You don't need to look for agricultural knowledge, you can eat, no problem." Thinking back to the glorious years on the financial front, when I was at the dinner table and drinking, I was flying sand and rocks, and I was serving vegetables... "I don't want to go to agricultural science today, right?"

Ying shook her head blankly, "Are you asking about my identity?"

"Oh, maybe I have to go." She scratched her head in embarrassment. "Grab a little and clean it. Soak it in water and wait for me to cook for you when I come back. By the way, wash the three pig's hoofs. They all have the front hooves, definitely the front hooves!"

This is a delicious dish. Facai pork knuckle, um, I haven't thought about this for a long time, and I'm slanderous when I think about it.It made me lose my mind in agronomy for a long time.Just thinking about the taste of pig's trotters, just after noon, I called back to improve the system and ran towards the house. Cheng Chu also chased after me and asked me to take him with me to improve the system together.

"You don't have enough pig's trotters once you go, let's do it next time." I got up early and asked to prepare three front hooves. I didn't expect Cheng Chu to follow today, "Isn't your family busy with preparations for harvesting water chestnuts? Go back and pull me two carts." .”

"Pig trotter?" Cheng Chu grinned. "There is no problem with the two carts! All the front hooves!" Based on these words, he is an expert, so he has to take it.

"Water chestnuts! It's not pig's trotters." With a wave of his hand, the two got on their horses and drove away.

Cheng Chu knew that there was something miraculous to eat on the road, so he parted ways with me on the sidewalk with a happy smile, and went back to fetch water chestnuts.Keep telling me to wait for him to come to eat.

Three pig's trotters were obviously not enough, so I hurriedly asked my servants to prepare another six, making it auspicious, let's eat lettuce.You have to match three, six, and nine, or I'm sorry for the name.In a large casserole, boil the trotters in cold water first, pour off the water, add the broth and seasonings to a boil, add red dates, wolfberry, and soaked lettuce and simmer over low heat.In about an hour and a half, Cheng Chu's two carts of water chestnuts arrived, just in time for them to be cooked.

Steaming hot.The smell is overflowing, the soup is thick and the meat is rotten. Cheng Chu killed three pig's trotters without even bothering to drink. He stirred the lettuce with chopsticks and stuffed it in his mouth. Asked me the origin of this thing in dumb language.

"Eat yours, be careful that the casserole is knocked over by you." Then he turned around and ordered his servants to deliver the stew in the small pot to his wife.I'll save it first.It seems that this pig's trotter is not enough for Cheng Chu alone.

"Good stuff!" Cheng Chu took time out of his busy schedule to praise, seeing that I hadn't moved my chopsticks yet.Feeling a little rude, I hurriedly swipe the red dates and wolfberry in the casserole towards me a few times, "Brother Zihao, you're welcome, hehe, you're welcome." As he spoke, he brought out a pig's trotter and came out to fight.

I eat water chestnuts, not to fight with him.Let someone wash the water chestnuts, boil water to kill the parasites, pinch one, it is delicious and delicious, and also send a few plates to the two wives, they all love this, I didn't eat a few bites last year, and I made up for it this year.

Frowning, Cheng Chu ate six at a time, he looked half full and didn't enjoy himself too much, so he took the casserole and started to drink soup.If I had known that I would get a few more, it would be too early, so I ordered nine more as usual, but I haven't touched a bite yet, so it looks like I have to stay home for dinner.

"Okay!" After drinking it, he found that the wine hadn't touched. He took a few sips from the jug, and complained to me, "Little brother said to pull two carts of pig's trotters? You insist on some water chestnuts. Water chestnuts are so delicious. What's going on?"

"Fat Cai pig trotters," pushed a plate of water chestnuts over, "Eat, you can't just eat meat."

"Fat vegetables? Why is it a vegetable?" Cheng Chu was surprised to pick out one from the leftovers at the bottom of the casserole and observe it carefully, "A new vegetable in agronomy?"

"Longyou Shangxiao, there is no agronomy." This is rather cumbersome, Cheng Chu can understand the difference between plants and fungi, so there is no need to waste time with him.

"Grow it! You are the junior superintendent of agronomy, it's a pity not to grow this kind of vegetable." Cheng Chu's Xinzhuangzi has a scale, so it can catch whatever it grows without picking and choosing.

"Oh, I'm afraid we can't grow them here. It's not something that grows on the ground, similar to fungus."

"Agaric," Cheng Chu said a little incredulously, it was hard to classify these two things into one category.It’s not easy to pretend to be ignorant, so he nodded politely, “Let’s just say, they are all black, but they taste different.” After speaking, he added, “The fungus is also delicious.”

Fungus was still a commodity in short supply in this era, and it was not produced in Chang'an. It was only wild on the southern slope after passing the Qinling watershed. The number was small, and it was not easy to pick. What grows on the thorn tree is the best, and the price is extremely high. The price of hemp ground in the medicinal material shop is not worth one or two fungus in three or two days.

At the beginning of this journey, the dinner was a bit fancy, and the ready-made water chestnuts happened to be fried with a handful of fungus and sliced ​​meat. The brothers drank more and had two dishes.

They are all fresh dishes, Cheng Chu is relieved and saves wine.After eating, he vowed to dig back all the lettuce from Longyou.I really don't understand why this thing can grow in the wild but not in the field.I am full of praise for the horseshoe fried pork slices with fungus. I feel that I have already planted horseshoes at home, so I should be able to grow fungus. Anyway, I am idle. Before my grandfather comes back, I will make some new tricks to make the old man happy. Maybe I will let him out to fight on the battlefield as soon as he is happy. up.

A typical reckless person, when he has a whim, he is like a psychopath, let him make trouble.It also costs nothing.Fortunately, I went to the agricultural school. If I followed Li Jingxuan to the engineering college, I don’t know what I can do. Fortunately, I am lucky.

After being sent off by Cheng Chu and returning to the back house, I found Ying and the second daughter were slumped on the kang with their round bellies, "Oh my god, are you pregnant?"

Ying raised her orchid finger, pointed at herself with two fingers, and pointed at the second daughter with three fingers.Understood.Ying ate two at night, and the second daughter ate three, "Why don't you hurry away? Sitting on the kang and being knifed?" They dragged a person with one hand and one leg, and distributed them all in the garden. Stomach problems are like this .Not a bit rich man's demeanor!

There was also a casserole stewed in the kitchen. It was originally for my supper. I took a flat-bottomed basket and put a few more layers of linen to keep it safe, and I just brought it to Lanling.

Just crawling on the soft couch to eat water chestnuts.I had expected it earlier, this guy Cheng Chu must have been sent to Lanling first before going around to my house, or he could have run for more than two hours in just a few miles.

"Eat hot ones, don't eat water chestnuts too much, be careful of stomach upset in the middle of the night." Pulling the plate aside, lightly placed the slightly hot casserole in the basket, lifted the lid and teased the smell towards Lanling, "Is it delicious?" ?”

"Diligent. I'm not pregnant yet." Lan Ling happily stood up and pressed her face to me, "I'm not afraid of getting burned if I walk at night with a hot casserole."

"It's carrying the lantern," Guizhi Guizhi sat aside and watched Lanling eat, and he was in a good mood to guide, "The bones are also shattered, and the taste is all inside. It has been stewed for two hours."

"En." Lan Ling returned the chopsticks at first.Later, he simply got into his hands and gnawed happily. "It's delicious. And this dish is rare, I haven't seen it before."

"It's for breastfeeding," smiled and passed a towel over, "I've also drank the soup, so I'll have the strength to give birth in the future."

"Irreverent," said a pot of soup with a pig's trotter, and it went away in a few mouthfuls, and it was comfortable to eat. "It's strange, if you weren't born into such a wealthy family, you would be famous all over the capital even as a cook."

"That's right, if the conditions are not so simple now, I can buy you any more goodies. Well, after eating and walking, I should go back." He said and left with the lantern.

"Wait, I'll send you off to help you digest your food." Lan Ling rubbed his hands indiscriminately, and came out with a lantern. When crossing the fields, he stretched out the lantern and pointed at a broken tree stubble under the light, and asked softly: "Do you remember?"

"Hey..." A little twitchy, he shook the lantern in his hand, "Forgot."

"I haven't forgotten." Lan Ling took a few steps closer and squatted down on the stubble, "Come and have a look."

Looking down along Lanling's finger, although the trunk is broken, a circle of new buds have grown on the edge. Thank God, the little tree is still alive, and there is something strange in my heart, sweet and sour, warm, without courage Thinking back, I stared blankly at the new and tender tree buds in a daze.Lan Ling also held his breath and looked towards me. There was no sound in the silent night, as if he could hear the heartbeat of the other party.

"Alive," Lan Ling let out a long breath, and sat on the grass hard, "God bless it from being tortured again, and when the branches and leaves are flourishing in the future, it will never remember that it was broken once."

Nodding, he gently held Lan Ling's finger, not knowing what to say.

"I'm always afraid," Lan Ling leaned over slowly, his eyes lost the fortitude of the past, and the weakness made people feel distressed, "Don't do it again."

"It won't happen, I promise." Turning around, he inserted the lantern into the ground, looked up at the clear full moon, and gently embraced Lan Ling, "Things will go smoothly soon, when do you plan to leave?"

Lan Ling arched in my arms, and said in a soft voice: "If you come a few more times, you may be able to leave earlier. I secretly asked for a magic talisman."

"Well, that will definitely work." Helping Lan Ling to stand up, "Don't send it off, I will send it off if you send it off again, and I should send you off."

"Here's a lantern for you."

Lan Ling still stood where she was that day, with the same posture, which made me feel sad. She went up and grabbed her nose and shook it a few times, "What are you doing? Go back quickly! You're not as poignant as you are."

Lan Ling chuckled a few times, came over to hug me and kissed, "Come here Ming, I will make dumplings for you." After saying that, she turned around and walked away with a smile.

After watching the lights disappear, he walked towards the house, walked halfway and then came back to make sure that Lan Ling must have left, and squatted in front of the broken tree to look.The broken stubble has dried up, and the pale yellow stubble is still connected with a roll of twisted bark. It seems that when I twisted the tree, I exerted all my strength. I looked around and stood up and saluted the stubble respectfully. Keep saying I'm sorry, dig the ground and carefully spread the soil on it, until the broken stubble is completely filled, then grab a few large grass leaves and carefully wrap them up.

I am a lucky guy. I don’t know if this tree will blame me. I wish it will grow up, grow taller, and grow up. One day I will face it with peace of mind.Really, I swear that there will be no next time, not only me, but no one will ever try to hurt her again.
