Red House Shoufu

Chapter 256 The Charm of Hot Pot (to follow up)
Lin Shu was already prepared for Qian Mo's invitation. After the last chance encounter at Dabaoen Temple, Daiyu inquired a lot about the Qian family from Madam Zhang.

"On the sixteenth day, I will send my sister there, and I will pick you up when I am on duty."

Lin Shu is now very relieved that Daiyu will represent the Lin family to attend banquets. In the past few years, the two nuns Zhang and Lu have contributed a lot. Sometimes Daiyu's performance is much better than that of her elder brother.

Reborn for 18 years, sometimes he still unconsciously reveals the habits of his previous life.Even though he reminded himself all the time, some deep-rooted concepts cannot be suppressed by simple introspection.

Lin Shu put all these behind him, and said with a smile: "This plum garden is actually the small garden in front of the teacher's study. It is said that when the teacher's family moved to the capital, the sage gave him the mansion. The teacher planted the whole garden with vegetables. The small garden in front of the study is left to the teacher alone. The small garden with plum blossoms is the only place where the teacher can make decisions."

Daiyu thought it was very interesting that the mansion of the Minister of Rites, the garden at home was used as a vegetable garden.But the small garden with only a few plum blossoms is called plum garden.

Qian Moshi's self-improvement, diligence, knowledge, generosity, virtuousness and other qualities have been appreciated by the palace many times.

Daiyu was very curious about such a legendary Mrs. Qian. After she inquired about the Qian family's situation from Madam Zhang, she respected Qian Mo's even more.

The brothers and sisters used the posts to gossip a lot about various mansions in the capital. When talking about the hundred-day banquet at the Rongguo Mansion on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Daiyu also told Lin Shu something very interesting.

It turned out that after the gossip that the county uncle Wang's family drove away the down-and-out relatives, and the Rongguo Mansion generously donated money to help spread in the capital, Wang Xifeng, the Rongguo Mansion's second grandmother Lian, has a reputation for benevolence and kindness.

After Wang Xifeng learned that she had helped Grandma Liu casually, she actually got such a huge benefit.So she took advantage of the approaching winter and sent her servants to visit Grandma Liu's family at Wangjiazhuang in the west of Beijing.

After learning about the origin of Wangjiazhuangzi and the current situation, he discussed with Jia Lian and supported a lot of food.Of course, these grains were not given for free. The patriarch of Wangjiazhuang signed a contract with the Rongguo Mansion to return the original amount after the next year's harvest.

This incident happened to be seen by the officials of Shuntian Mansion who came to deliver the plaque, and they passed the story of Rongguo Mansion's benevolence and righteousness to borrow food back to the capital.Now the reputation of the Rongguo Mansion is even better, and with it, the reputation of the Uncle Wang's family of the ruling county is only a short distance away from being infamous.

"The Wang family is doing it on their own. Who doesn't have poor relatives? My family members are starving to death, but his family is fine, and they don't even let in the gate. Since the Wang family manor went to the battlefield with the old man, it naturally belongs to the Wang family. A hero. Isn’t it chilling to treat a hero with such indifference?”

Lin Shu told Daiyu: "Yu'er must remember that if people's hearts are scattered, it is more difficult than climbing to the sky to get together again."

Daiyu nodded obediently and said, "Yes, yes, I remember."

At this time, Wang Momo led the snow geese to bring lunch. In this cold winter, there is no more suitable meal than hot pot.

The red and white soup in the small mandarin duck copper pot is constantly tumbling under the blessing of the stove.

Lin Shu put the only slices of beef into the pot, and said with a sigh: "It's a pity that this beef is really hard to find. It's not perfect to eat hot pot without beef."

The imperial court banned the slaughter of cattle, so Lin Shu managed to "grab" a few catties of beef from Jia Lian and send some to his father-in-law Wang's house. The rest was only two plates of beef slices.

Daiyu smiled and comforted, "Didn't my brother say that we will resume the trade with Tatar soon? At that time, let's send people to exchange for more cattle so that my brother can eat enough."

"How can it be so easy? Even if the cattle are exchanged, they must be used for farming first."

Lin Shu put most of the cooked beef in Daiyu's small bowl, it looked tall.Mix the juice again and put it in front of Daiyu: "Taste it!"

Daiyu knew that the bowl of beef in front of her was her brother's concern for her and she couldn't refuse, but she still stubbornly put half of it back into Lin Shu's bowl.

Then I picked up a slice and dipped it in the juice to taste it.The slightly spicy taste stimulates the taste buds, which is really refreshing.

"good to eat!"

"Since it's delicious, eat more. I didn't even bother to try this potato last year. I've harvested so much this year. Let's try the taste first!"

Lin Shu put a few slices of boiled potatoes in their bowls, and Daiyu tasted it again, it was soft and sticky, it really suits my taste...

……

In the Dragon Head Palace, the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor also had lunch around a pot.

Xia Shouzhong put the sliced ​​potatoes into the hot pot, and when it was cooked, the Supreme Emperor picked up a piece and sighed: "Not to mention, this kid from the Lin family is really unique in eating this piece!"

"The grilled fish tasted good last time. My son has always felt that cooking in the Imperial Dining Room is daunting. The taste of the food is the same over and over again. My son has long been tired of eating it."

The emperor was sweating profusely after eating, and felt comfortable after having such a meal in winter.

The father and son exchanged cups, and soon cleaned up all the prepared meat, vegetables and rice. The two gathered around the stove and watched Xia Shouzhong roast the potatoes.

The sweet smell of potatoes has filled the surrounding area with the roasting. The emperor said with a smile: "Huangzhuang has a lot of sales this year, and the cabinet has already drawn up the next season's sowing. My son once calculated that within two years, Shuntian Prefecture, Shuntian Prefecture, Shandong, Henan, and most of Shanxi can basically grow potatoes. Within five years, there will be no more famine in the country.”

Although the Supreme Emperor also hoped that the ripe potatoes would fill the stomachs of the people all over the world, he still poured cold water on the feverish emperor's son.

I just heard the Supreme Emperor say: "Then have you ever considered that the people in this world have their own land? Without land, your potatoes will only rot in the grain depots of those powerful gentry, and your people may not For the potatoes in the hands of those tyrants, become their domestic slaves."

The Supreme Emperor has been in office for ten years, and he has a more thorough understanding of these thousands of miles of land than the emperor.A few years ago, because of the strength of his father and son, he was dazzled by the supreme power and made the most regrettable mistake in his life.

As time goes by, he can already feel his life is slowly passing by.His only wish now is to teach his son who has not received the education of an orthodox prince in front of him.

"This world is not so much surnamed Gao as surnamed Wen and Wu."

The Supreme Emperor said with great earnestness: "The world is divided into ten parts, and Lao Gao's family has at most three parts. Among the remaining seven parts, civil servants have three parts, military commanders have three parts, and the rest belong to the common people. The emperor seems to have great power, but actually Leaving those civil servants and military generals, and the imperial decree leaving the capital, it may not be as precious as a piece of toilet paper."

The emperor also knew that this was the truth, but he still felt very uncomfortable hearing these words.Enduring the discomfort in his heart, he nodded humbly and said: "My son also knows that the situation of land annexation is getting worse, and he is already making preparations to deal with this problem."

"How to deal with it? A little carelessness will provoke those gentry tyrants to raise their flags. Just one of the four kings can cause such a big incident, let alone the gentry tyrants all over the world."

The Supreme Emperor exhorted in an extremely solemn tone: "It's still the same sentence, you are too anxious. This time, when dealing with the four kings, the father in Liaodong can help you stabilize. But the father is old, and he may go to see the ancestors at any time Lie Zong, this world will ultimately depend on you to support yourself, don't worry, be cautious, cautious, and more cautious!"

"Father!"

The emperor knelt down in front of the Supreme Emperor gratefully, and kowtowed heavily: "The son knows that these years have been a little anxious, but thanks to his father's help many times in secret, there was no chaos. From now on, he must bear in mind his father's teachings, act cautiously, and never Live up to my father's expectations!"
