The story of Princess Lenggong's farming

Chapter 180 Lamb Bone Soup

Han Ji looked quite calm, and said with a smile: "It's delicious, and it's not uncommon for a local girl to cook..."

"Yeah..." Zhong Gensheng laughed honestly after thinking about it.On the one hand, they cheerfully asked the two of them to pick up vegetables to eat.

The two finished the meal with complicated expressions, as if something was blocked in their hearts.

Autumn is as cool as water, and the autumn at night is quite cold. The trees on the mountain are also a little yellow, and the leaves are gradually falling.

After dinner, Shen Sisi took a walk by the pond in the backyard. Although the scenery by the pond is not as good as when the lotus flowers are in full bloom in summer, and the fruit trees have not grown yet, Shen Sisi doesn't care. She walks slowly around the pond. Circle, while thinking about the development of their own...

When Han Ji walked over, she didn't hear any footsteps, and when she recovered, Han Ji was already in front of her with a complicated expression.Shen Sisi was startled, and laughed quickly: "Is the general out for a walk too?!"

Han Ji nodded, looked at the calm pond, and said in a low voice: "The song Ailian Said is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it will soon become popular. I didn't know that the poetry of the Four Treasures is so good..."

Shen Sisi's heart skipped a beat, and she screamed inwardly, this man found out so quickly.It's terrible, but it's true when you think about it, he is stationed in the border town, and such a big incident in the border town has something to do with him, how could he not know? !

But Shen Sisi was still very calm on the surface, without hesitation at all, and even pretended not to understand Han Ji's temptation, and said with a smile: "...Yeah, his handwriting is beautiful, and he has read a lot of poetry and books. There is nothing to write..."

"Oh?!" Han Ji looked at him with a half-smile and said, "...but he didn't admit it."

"There is a kind of connotation called modesty, and the Four Treasures are just too modest..." Shen Sisi didn't change his face, and he didn't even intend to admit that the poem was written by her. Although there was a smile on his face, his heart was about to beat again.

What does Han Ji mean by asking this? !

Han Ji looked at her, and what she saw in her eyes was calmness, but he sighed secretly in his heart, this girl, facing his power, could actually look at him at the same level, she is really not a simple girl, with such a strong heart If my younger sister was so determined back then, how could she have fallen to such a point in the harem, being bullied by a group of concubines who were pampered by the superior? !
Han Ji didn't know whether he should be relieved or depressed to see this girl's kindness. After thinking about it for a long time, he knew that it was impossible for her to admit it, so he had no choice but to give up.

It was just a test to come over, he believed in his heart that she wrote the poem, but what surprised him was the girl's attitude, neither humble nor overbearing, anyway, he has no evidence, so what can he do? !

In fact, Shen Sisi was quite uneasy in her heart. As for what was written in the poem, it didn't matter who wrote it. The important thing was whether Han Ji pursued it or not. Well, the excuse is that it was given to her anyway, and she has the right to decide how to deal with it.

But although she thought well, it was useless, because Han Ji didn't ask any more questions, but finally smiled and said: "You have a good plan, take my painting and sell your lotus root, it's so big face……"

The back of Shen Sisi was sweating, but he smiled and said: "I just killed two birds with one stone. The general's painting skills are so good, so why hide it and not show it? It is also an honor to share good things with others." ..."

What's more, he has won the reputation of both civil and military skills, especially the reputation and reputation of literati and officials.Shen Sisi twitched her lips and thought, it's not because Han Ji has made money, she hasn't asked him for the manuscript fee yet.

Han Ji looked at her, and in the end he couldn't say anything anymore. After all, he couldn't bear to argue with her. In the end, he could only laugh it off, not to mention the depression in his heart.

But he didn't expect that this poem brought him far more than simple fame.

The deep meaning of what Ailian said is the mentality of indifference to fame and fortune, coupled with the talent and name of this poem, it has won the pursuit and love of many literati.He thought that he was clearly indifferent to fame and fortune, but in order to protect his family and country, he had to come out to guard the frontier.

Since ancient times, literati did not think highly of military generals, thinking that they were illiterate, vulgar and reckless, but once this poem and painting were written, Han Ji won a huge reputation, and when he realized it, his reputation spread throughout Dayu Among Chaomiaotang and Jiang Mu, when he was forced to make trouble one day, he thought that all he got was infamy, but he never expected that all he got was support, which was basically a one-sided result...

It's a pity that Han Ji doesn't know or expect it now, and he is so depressed that he can't express it.

His painting, his seal, paired with the song Ailian, and then connected with the lotus root, he really couldn't be happy, but he couldn't do anything about her.

Annoyed that she added poems privately, and annoyed that she took paintings to exhibitions, Han Ji was a person who didn’t like to show off, and now the border town he created was full of his reputation, which really made him extremely depressed, and he didn’t know what the person above thought...

But Han Ji couldn't help it, moved his lips, and finally couldn't bear to blame her, so he could only turn around and go back to sleep depressed.

Shen Sisi wiped a little sweat from his forehead, and thought to himself: "Fortunately, fortunately..." Fortunately, he didn't care about it any more.

She hurried back to the house and went to bed.

The next day, because Han Ji was too depressed, he took his bow and arrows and Zhong Gensheng to go hunting in the deep mountains. He vented all his depression on the prey in the mountains, and the prey in the mountains were unlucky, and Zhong Gensheng saw his magic even more. The arrow method, the arrow can shoot the prey three points to the bone.

Zhong Gensheng watched in amazement and admiration.

Han Ji even shot a bear, and Zhong Gensheng was almost dumbfounded. Fortunately, he brought a few soldiers, otherwise this pile of prey would really be impossible to get home.

Han Ji was sweating all over, and the depression in his heart was relieved. He smiled and said: "This is enough, let's go back, and fight again next time..."

Zhong Gensheng looked at his prey, then at his own, and said in shame: "Compared with the general's arrow skills, Gensheng is really ashamed..."

Han Ji smiled and said: "Brother Zhong, don't say that. In fact, brother's arrow technique is accurate, but not strong enough. I have been practicing martial arts for many years, and my arm strength is amazing. This is better than brother. Practice makes perfect..."

Zhong Gensheng smiled, he is a general, so there is nothing to say about this kind of arrow technique, he is a farmer, how can he compare with him, so he didn't care, and went home with his prey.

Today is a good harvest, because Shen Sisi said that goats are delicious, so today Han Ji killed three sheep, Zhong Gen also killed one, plus the bear, a wild boar weighing two to three hundred catties, and seven or eight goats. A pheasant and a rabbit are very spectacular to watch. When the soldiers carried them down, they all attracted onlookers, and whispered: "...It really is the general, this harvest, look at that blind man, the fur is intact, this fur It can be sold for a lot of money…”

They wanted to get closer, but they didn't dare. They just watched from a distance and talked with envy in their eyes.

When they got home, the whole family was almost stunned. The prey piled up in the yard was quite spectacular.Especially the bear, which weighed several hundred kilograms, almost blinded his contemplative eyes.

Her eyes were full of surprises, a bear is equal to a bear's paw, this is... such a rare good thing.Haha, no need to spend money to buy it.

So she looked at Han Ji with admiration, and Han Ji's psychology became more balanced, and she finally released all the pent-up breath in her heart.

Sibao's blood was also boiling with enthusiasm. He thought that if he improved his riding and archery skills, would he be able to catch so many prey? I'll be fine too...

He wanted to leave this monster in his dreams now, he glanced at the excited Pensive, very puzzled.To her, aren't these common in the mountains? !Is she a snake spirit so excited? !
Shen Sisi smiled and said: "Father, mother, we ate the bear's paw at night, hahaha..."

Now that the Zhong family is enjoying a better life, they don't care about selling money anymore. Zhong Gensheng smiled generously and said, "Okay, the bear skin is not for sale anymore, let's get it out and make a cloak for the general..."

He was the one who beat the bear, so naturally the bear skin belongs to him.But Han Ji didn't care about anything, so he smiled and said: "I don't need this, give it to the local girl, it's quite warm to make a winter coat..."

Zhong Gensheng knew that he was always generous when staying at home, thinking about it, he responded with a smile, he really loved his daughter, and said: "Axiu, make a smock for the local girl, so that it will be warm when you go out."

Shen Sisi is not interested in bear skins, she is only interested in bear paws, so she immediately smiled and said: "No, dad, let me make one for you, I don't like wearing this..."

Seeing her like this, Zhong Gensheng smiled and said: "I can't wear this to go out, people will tell me, that's all, I think it's better to make a small hanging bag for He Xiu and Xiaohua, so as to cover the wind in winter..."

Niu Xiaohua hurriedly said: "...No need, Dad, I can't wear this, other people will say..."

"..." The whole family didn't dare to wear it outside, so they froze there for a while, and no one dared to wear the bear skin.

Shen Sisi sighed, and had no choice but to say: "Since it's not easy to wear out, let's make a blanket and put it in my room to lean against or sit on..."

But it's really wasteful, but I really don't want to sell it, it's too cost-effective, mainly because they can't sell it at a high price here, and their family doesn't care about the money now, so there is no need to sell it at a low price .Making blankets is really wasteful, but no one has any objections, the main reason is that they all think they can't afford the bearskin... Shen Sisi had no choice but to accept it.

If the tiger skin is added, can she build a cottage?sweat.

She broke into a cold sweat, and the family got busy. Zhong Gensheng and Changsheng skinned the bear together. Changsheng followed Han Ji all the year round. What didn't they do?I know how to do this, get the skins off and hand them over to He Axiu to deal with. He Axiu also knows how to deal with animal skins, and I still have materials at home, so I slowly made them up with nitrate. some days...

Zhong Gensheng chopped off the bear's paw again, and the next step was to deal with the bear's meat.This bear meat is a good thing. It can nourish deficiency and damage, strengthen muscles and bones, cure beriberi, wind numbness, limbs do not follow, and tendons and veins. In modern times, bears belong to the national first-level protected animals, and hunting is strictly prohibited, but here, it is nothing. scruples...

Therefore, Shen Sisi is gearing up to cook a good meal at night.

Zhong Gensheng said: "I can't eat this much meat, Tu Niu, do you want to pickle it?!"

Shen Sisi nodded and said: "Let the general's personal soldiers come to eat at night, call Uncle Lizheng, Uncle Niu, Uncle Liu and Er Gouzi over, have a good meal, and marinate the meat if it can't be used. Well, but there are a lot of people here, Dad, marinate half of this bear meat, eat some of the rest today, and it won’t spoil tomorrow, and eat some, it’s probably about the same..."

"Okay," Zhong Gensheng replied, and went to get it himself. Then he asked Dabao to ask people to remember to come earlier in the evening, and asked him to drink a lot of wine and come back to store it. How can there be so much meat in the evening without drinking wine? OK.

Dabao asked Butcher Wang to deal with the wild boar as well.The wild boar's hair is very hard, and it's hard to touch. It's more difficult to handle than a domestic pig, but the pig is dead, so it's easy to handle, so he handles it together. Zhong Gensheng wants to keep him for dinner. Butcher Wang No way, he is not at ease with so many people here, besides, there is a general living in the Zhong family.
