Qi Yu Millennium

When I invited Xu Shuangyi to visit Chang'an, she happily agreed.Like shopping seems to be a woman's nature, the reason why women like to go shopping is traced back to their curiosity, women's shopping and men's adventures are actually both driven by curiosity.

Chang'an is the capital of the country. Years of construction and recuperation have made Chang'an extremely prosperous. It was noon when we walked on the street, and the snow on the street had already been cleared away. Although the road was still a little slippery, it did not affect Merchants open their doors to welcome money from all directions, and hawkers walk through the streets and alleys yelling for goods to sell.

If it were in modern times, I would take Xu Shuangyi to the shopping mall to buy clothes immediately, but at this time there are no ready-made clothes on the street, only clothing materials are sold in the shops, and the clothes materials at this time naturally do not contain any chemical composite materials, so Clothing materials at that time were roughly divided into three categories, the most expensive being silk products, this soft and luxurious silk fabric was the main clothing material of famous nobles.The second is cotton cloth, which is not cheap because cotton has just been planted in the border areas of China at this time, and the output is very low. Cotton cloth has good water absorption and does not irritate the skin. It is mainly used to make underwear, that is, underwear. .The most common is sackcloth, which is rough and durable, and is the main material for making clothes. Pure linen is not common in the public, but most people have seen sacks. Sackcloth is a fabric similar to sacks, but thinner than that. Some.

Xu Shuangyi lingered in the cloth shop for a long time, and finally chose a piece of cotton cloth and a piece of linen cloth. She didn't like silk. In her opinion, it was flashy and easy to scratch and fluff. For a person like her who lived in wild areas all year round Say it doesn't apply.Since she likes it, I will buy it for her. In fact, these things are not high-quality. I can allocate tribute cloth for her now, but the fun of shopping lies in shopping. After the war, I will give some royal tributes as gifts give her.

There are finished boots, but those boots are worn by people at the bottom of society, not high-end boots.The reason for this situation is that you need to measure your feet when buying boots, and women from wealthy families would not take off their shoes and measure their feet to buy. Show people easily.

Hairpin jewelry and other women's items are also sold on the street. Xu Shuangyi doesn't wear makeup and doesn't like useless jewelry. However, driven by the psychology of a woman who pleases herself, she still tried a few jewelry. Afterwards, she took it off, she just wanted me to see how she looked wearing jewelry, in fact, she does not like these things.

In fact, a person's mental age is not directly related to her physical age. Although Xu Shuangyi is still in her forties, but because she lives in a wild area all year round, she rarely contacts outsiders, and she has no human experience. So the girl's heart is still preserved in her body, she is very curious about Chang'an's dazzling array of rare things, any shop will make her stay for a long time, and the melancholy on her face is also swept away, replaced by joy and curiosity .

Xu Shuangyi's appearance is superior, and walking on the street will inevitably attract a lot of side-eyes and peeps. This scene makes me feel very funny. If those disciples know that this woman can fly thousands of miles in the sky and hold a bow Angrily shooting and killing the enemy a thousand steps, do they still dare to look at her with such obscene eyes?

What Xu Shuangyi is most interested in is the jade antiques that are placed on the streets for sale. These historical deposits carry a strong cultural atmosphere. They are all very cheap. Since Xu Shuangyi likes them, she will buy them all. There are very few fakes of antique jades at this time, unlike the fakes everywhere in today's society. Go to Panjiayuan and look around all the antiques to find out the sister's face.I once made a bet with King Kong Pao in modern times. I don’t need to use the technique of qi, but just rely on eyesight to distinguish between real and fake Taobao. As a result, I bought a bronze sword that was made old by people’s urine, while King Kong Pao bought a 502 sticky sword. blue and white porcelain.

Women are tireless when shopping. From noon to evening, I buy so many things that I can only carry them by casting spells.

"I'll take you to dinner." I looked up at the sky and confirmed the time. Chang'an also has a curfew at night, and businesses will close their stalls if it's too late.

When Xu Shuangyi heard the words and showed her promise, I took her to the most luxurious restaurant in Chang'an. Xu Shuangyi walked to the door and retreated. She doesn't like this kind of occasion, she wants to see what ordinary people eat .

I naturally wanted to help Xu Shuangyi fulfill her wish, so I took her to a lantern food street in Dongcheng.

In this era, people's diets vary greatly, not only in quality, but also in different times. The emperor and important ministers usually eat four meals, with supper in the morning, noon and evening.Ordinary courtiers and everyone in the family eat three meals a day, but traffickers and pawns only have two meals a day, morning and evening. The idiom "two meals and one night" describes the hardships of life in ancient times. This was the system in ancient times. up.

During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, almost all the basic cooking methods were available, such as frying, frying, frying, braised dried meat, roasting and steaming.People living at the top of the society at this time don't like to eat meat. The reason why they don't like it is not because they don't want to eat it, but because they think that meat will corrupt the human body.Those living at the bottom of the society are very eager to eat meat, but unfortunately they can't afford it, so they can only eat the six animals. The so-called six animals refer to horses, cows, sheep, pigs, dogs, and chickens.These animals existed during the Southern and Northern Dynasties. Vegetables mainly include cabbage, spinach, taro, radish, leek, cucumber, gourd, lotus root, and beans. Many modern vegetables had not yet appeared at this time.

Modern women like to pretend that they are vegetarians, pretending to be "I don't eat meat" in front of others, and secretly gnawing on pig's feet behind their backs.In fact, the reason why they do this is to show their elegance, but it is a pity that the elegance is not shown, but the hypocrisy.In fact, the natural one is the best and the most beautiful. I don't feel that Xu Shuangyi's image of eating meat and porridge is indecent at all. On the contrary, I feel that she is very real. Abstaining from meat is a matter for cultivators. Ordinary people, don't join in the fun, people who don't eat meat not only have no strength, but also lack energy.

In the popular impression, sashimi is the food of the Japanese devils. In fact, its origin is China, but there is no wasabi at this time, and the condiment is mainly ginger.

Because it is winter, shellfish from coastal areas can also be transported, but people at this time are not good at eating this. Seafood is mainly umami, and people at this time have a soft spot for fragrance.

The barbecue of Goryeo Bangzi is also passed down from China, but the current barbecue is a bit like Roujiamo, with pickled cucumber, lettuce and fatty meat between the noodles. This food is a delicacy for poor people at this time, and high-end people disdain to eat this.

Caviar is also available at this time, but it is not the roe of sturgeon, but the roe of ordinary freshwater fish. Sauce, sugar, onion, ginger, pepper, meat sauce, garlic.Sugar was brought from where Ah San lived, and it was an expensive condiment at this time.As for the slightly masochistic seasoning of pepper, it did not appear in China at this time.

What Xu Shuangyi likes most is sweet rice. At this time, people like to eat sticky rice. Both yellow rice in the north and glutinous rice in the south are of this kind. When this kind of food is cooked, red dates will be put on it. The eating habits of the Muslims in China are somewhat similar.

In the evening, when the curfew started, the two returned to the camp on foot. After returning to the camp, Xu Shuangyi happily sorted out the things she bought during the day, while I looked at her with great interest. Today can be said to be the first time since the two met. Her happiest day ever...
