Chapter 40: Missing the ravioli
"You said that even your lady of Chu has come to eat in this shop, so then order the wontons that the lady has eaten for me and my servant and this Yang Sheng to taste!" Wang Sunman said casually, and then found a corner of the lobby on the first floor to sit down. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Okay!"
Xiao Si wiped the table neatly, poured the tea, and then set up the wooden chopsticks, "Those guest officers have a cup of tea, wait a while, and miss the four wontons." ”
Wang Sunman was curious when he heard this, "The name of your wonton is so strange, why is it called missing wonton?"
Xiao Si touched his head, "Official, you also asked, I only heard the shopkeeper say, because this wonton is a wonton that our owner has eaten before, and the owner said that he will never be able to eat the original wonton again in his life, so he called this name to commemorate, and the word 'missing' is said to originate from a poem: red beans are born in the south, and a few branches are sent in spring." May you pick more, this thing is the most lovely. Therefore, red beans are lovesickness, missing, and each of these wonton fillings is mixed with a lovesick red bean, salty and sweet, which makes people remember the bitterness and sweetness, so it is named. ”
Wang Sunman repeatedly read this poem "Red Bean" several times, and the more he read it, the more surprised he felt, "What a strange poem, but it reads with unique rhyme, simple, straightforward, but affectionate, I don't know who your owner is, can write this poem?"
Xiao Si smiled, "This villain can't say anything, otherwise the shopkeeper will scold me, the villain should go and serve you food!"
"Well, there you go!"
Wang Sunman looked at all the names of the dishes in this Wanji wonton with great interest, and the more he looked at it, the more interesting he felt, missing the wonton, the four happiness wontons, the golden baht wontons, the fried wontons, the fried wontons, the three fresh wontons, and the wonton noodles......
All of them are simply unheard of.
So he asked Han Shi Yang Shengdao, "Is this wonton a characteristic of your Chu State? Why are there so many ways to do it?"
"This wonton is not a special feature, it should be available in all countries, it is nothing more than made of dough wrapped with meat or vegetable filling, and the name is different. It's just that our Wanji family is different, especially in the past three years, it has become more and more different, and each wonton recipe is very special. In fact, the prince should have ordered a few more other ones to try just now, such as this fried wonton, fried wonton, and wonton noodles are all very distinctive...... You can't eat it anywhere else. The more Yang Sheng talked, the more greedy he became.
Wang Sunman was interested, called Xiao Si again, and ordered all these things.
Yang Sheng also said, "Prince, if you can't finish eating, you don't have to worry about waste, you can also take it back to the inn to eat." ”
"Take-in?"
Wang Sunman heard a new name again, "What is dine-in packaging?"
"This nobleman, dine-in packaging is packed in a food box and can't finish eating and taking it back. The old man, who had been listening to it for a long time, couldn't help but interject.
"I see!"
Wang Sunman nodded slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the bang drum hanging on his shoulder, "This old man seems to understand very well." ”
"Hehe, I've been eating in this restaurant for more than ten years, so I naturally know a lot. Seeing that this noble man was easy to talk to, the old man also had the idea that he might be able to coax dinner, so he talked to Wang Sunman.
"The old man seems to know a lot not only about this store, but also about this Chu country. Wang Sunman continued to praise.
"That is, I have beaten the drum for a lifetime for the three generations of Chu kings before and after in Yingdu. The old man said proudly, "This Chu Jing doesn't know more than me. ”
"Hehe, the old man is bragging again. ”
It was not the first time that Yang Sheng had heard the old man bragging in the store, and he laughed when he heard it.
"Not necessarily, after all, the old man is older, and it is not surprising that he knows more than the younger generation of us. ”
"It's still this noble man who has insight. ”
The old man finally met a bosom friend, nodded again and again, and said, "Noble, if you don't understand this Ying, you can ask me." ”
Wang Sunman was about to continue inquiring, when suddenly there was a sound of people turning over on their backs on the street, "If Ao Duwei returns home, the idle people will avoid it as soon as possible!" Then I saw that some pedestrians on the street quickly avoided the Wanji wonton shop, lest they avoid it slowly, and they fell into bad luck.
Some foreigners in the middle of the road were whipped because they didn't have time to avoid coming, "Don't you have long eyes?
Suddenly there was a scream of "ouch" in the street.
After making trouble for a while, it gradually stopped when the group of people turned onto the North City Street.
Wang Sunman asked knowingly, "Who is this Ruo Ao Duwei?
The old man said in a low voice, "So in this Yingdu, this official, there are two people you can't mess with, one is this Ruo Ao Du Lieutenant, and the other is Ruo Ao Concubine, and don't go out in the middle of the night, the street is very chaotic at night, and you may easily die!"
"Why can't you go out at night?"
Wang Sunman asked with a curious look.
Yang Sheng saw that the old man said everything, and desperately glanced at him.
The old man felt that he had good intentions, and now he was eating, so he boldly said, "Because sometimes at night, the two brothers often fight, and they will die at every turn!"
"Then no one cares, doesn't the Chu State order Lord Yin to care?" Wang Sunman said in surprise.
"It's not that no one cares, it's that Lord Yin doesn't know about it, and the hatred between the two brothers is great!" the old man said, "The people below are all hiding it." ”
The old man wanted to say more, Yang Sheng coughed again and again, and then he patted the bong hanging on his shoulder, and said with a smile, "Forget it, don't talk about it, villain, I'm going to knock on the night after I eat!"
Seeing this, Wang Sunman accepted it when he saw it, and enthusiastically pulled him to sit down and eat, "Well, I'm hungry too, anyway, I order more, so I'll use it with us!"
"Ha, then I'll be disrespectful!"
The old man looked at a table of good dishes, and said in his heart that he had a free dinner today, and he was happy in his heart, and Cheng Jia, who walked in from outside the door, saw Wang Sunman, who looked plain and round-faced and big-eared, sitting in the middle of the hall, and was inquiring about various news about his Chu State from time to time with the old man and Yang Sheng.
He knew Wang Sunman.
At this time, although Wang Sunman had known his name for a long time, he had not yet seen his people.
Cheng Jia, who got the news of Ya, walked to Wang Sunman's table and glanced at the old man and Yang Sheng, Yang Sheng had already recognized his identity but was given a look by him, and asked in a loud voice, "Look at this person who doesn't look like me from the Chu State, I don't know which country it is?"
Wang Sunman looked up and saw a young and weak crown and a young man in a white robe standing in front of the table, like a jade tree, handsome and elegant, and a pair of slender eyes were looking at him lightly at this time.
Wang Sunman knew that his appearance was mediocre, and he had a pair of big ears, which was not very eye-catching, but the indifferent and focused eyes of the person who came made him feel shocked, and then looked at Yang Sheng's respectful expression, even the old man showed a little respect, so he calmly got up and smiled and said, "I am from the Zhou Dynasty, and my surname is Wang Mingman, I don't know what advice this son has?"
He is already semi-public.
As long as the other party is a person who has a close relationship with the Chu foreign court, he will inevitably guess his true identity.
Cheng Jia's eyes were faint, and he was also looking at this round-faced, big-eared, and low-volume Doctor Zhou.
At the first glance of Wang Sunman, he didn't know why he remembered the Tubo rat that drilled into the ground, obviously cunning, but it seemed ugly and harmless, and finally he nodded casually with a smile, and said lightly, "I didn't think that the prince and grandson of the Heavenly Dynasty would not dare to show people by his real name, and he was still mixed in the market of my Chu State, then I will also call you a prince." ”
