[Please keep in mind the domain name of this site" ", or search in Baidu: Sanlian Literature Network] Four dishes and one soup have a long history, and it is said that it was first proposed by Zhu Yuanzhang, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.

It is said that after Zhu Yuanzhang became the emperor, he encountered natural disasters, grain harvests in various places failed, and the people lived very poorly, but some high-ranking officials and nobles were extremely poor and luxurious, and lived a life of spending days and drinking. Zhu Yuanzhang, who was born poor and begged for food, was very annoyed by this and was determined to rectify it.

One day, coinciding with Queen Ma's birthday celebration, Zhu Yuanzhang took the opportunity of the ministers to come to congratulate her birthday and deliberately set up coarse dishes and light rice to feast guests, so as to alert the civil and military officials. When the hundred officials sat down, Taizu ordered the palace maid to serve the food. The first dish is fried radish, radish, and Baiwei medicine, and there is a folk proverb that radish is on the market and the pharmacy is closed. The second dish is fried leeks, which are vigorous and evergreen all year round, symbolizing the long-term peace and stability of the country. Then there are two large bowls of green vegetables, which means that the official is honest and honest, and the sleeves are clean. The last dish is a very ordinary green onion tofu soup.

After the banquet, Zhu Yuanzhang announced in public that in the future, the ministers can only invite guests with four dishes and one soup at most, and this queen's birthday banquet is an example.

As for our dynasty putting the people first and advocating a clean and honest government, everyone is a public servant of the people, so naturally we cannot drag ourselves away from the masses, and this tradition of four dishes and one soup must be adhered to. Therefore, on many formal occasions, it is expressly required to have four dishes and one soup, but in recent years, the atmosphere has been opened, and the living standards of the people have been improving day by day, and the standard of four dishes and one soup has gradually been liberalized by itself.

Therefore, when Tian Gengsheng and his party stayed in the hotel, they rested and came to the restaurant. I found that the local dishes on the table were really miserable.

A plate of pickled radish, a plate of sour cabbage, a plate of stir-fried shredded potatoes, a side back to the pot of meat, and then a pot of egg mash soup.

The problem is that there is a green worm on the leaves of the sour cabbage, and the slices of meat are stained with pig hair. The fried shredded potatoes are really stir-fried, as if there is not a drop of oil.

As for that egg mash soup. The portion is sufficient, and the frangipani is also well beaten, but the mash seems to have been made, and I feel that the sour taste has a strange wild taste in it.

"Waiter, is this your dish?" Tian Gengsheng glared, grabbed the waiter who delivered the vegetables and asked.

"Yes, of course it's our dish. What's the problem? The waiter asked with an innocent look on his face.

"This is four dishes and one soup?!" Tian Gengsheng pointed to the vegetables on the table and asked reluctantly.

"Of course it's four dishes and one soup, you don't know how to count?" The waiter looked at Tian Gengsheng with a foolish gaze, and then pointed to the dishes on the table and said to him, "One, two, three, four, four dishes, one soup, four dishes and one soup." ”

"This is your rock's four dishes and one soup?!" Tian Gengsheng asked a little angrily. "The last time I came to the rock, it wasn't like this! You bullied me, I don't know?! ”

The waiter was not afraid of his glare, and directly glared back and said, "The hotel manager last time has been planted because of the corruption case!" Now Secretary Fan has instructed that everything must be prepared in strict accordance with the standards set by the higher departments. So, you see the new four dishes and one soup! ”

After finishing speaking, the waiter shook his hand and left, not paying the slightest attention to the reactions of the few "superior leaders" next to the table.

"It's against the sky, it's against the sky!" Tian was so angry that he slapped the table, "Is this for people to eat?!" ”

"That's right, eating a public meal, and still thinking about a full Han banquet? Some of them should be thankful for eating! A diner at the table next to him said in a weird way.

Tian Gengsheng was furious when he heard this, and saw that there were also four dishes and one soup on the other party's table, but the colors and varieties were much better than those on his side. He asked angrily. "You guys, it's also four dishes and one soup?!"

"We pay for this at our own expense. If you are willing to pay for it, abalone and sea cucumber are available. The diner said with a smile, his eyes swept over Tian Gengsheng and a few others, but with a very disdainful expression, as if he recognized that they would not pay for it themselves.

, who wants to go on a business trip if they eat at their own expense? However, Tian Gengsheng thought that the food here must not be able to swallow it, maybe it was Yang Tianhe who was mischievous with him, and the hotel should also be under the direct management of the government secretary-general, obviously he had a fight with him just now, Yang Tianhe held a grudge, so he had these four dishes and one soup!

So Tian Gengsheng proposed, "Forget it, if you can't eat here, let's go out and find a restaurant to eat by ourselves!" ”

Of course, his subordinates welcomed it with both hands, anyway, the activity funds were in Tian Gengsheng's hands, and he didn't eat for nothing.

They stood up, and the food on the table did not move, and they were about to leave.

The diner said sourly, "The official master is the official master, and the food that our people can't usually eat is like pig food in the eyes of others, alasβ€”β€”"

Tian Gengsheng was about to be mad, and said in his heart what happened to this place? Even the inspection team dared to ignore it, are they ready to go it alone?!

Anyway, I can't stay here, Tian Gengsheng said in his heart If he had known that Panshi City was like this, he would not have come if he had killed himself, let alone promised to come out for Wang Yuanqing, who they loved.

Watching Tian Gengsheng and the others leave, the diner just now laughed, "It's really strange, why should Secretary General Yang have trouble with them?" Such four dishes and one soup are obviously specially for the Hanqi family! ”

"Disease-free, is that the level of hospitality at our rock? It doesn't seem very friendly! The girl next to him said in some surprise.

"It's not just unfriendly, it's just deliberately tricking people!" The diner was Fan Wuxi, but he just happened to come over, because his parents had something to go out, so he gave the family cook a vacation, and went to the city government hotel to eat with Chen Jingchu, who helped him tutor.

There are a few national first-class chefs in the municipal government hotel, and there are also a few specialty dishes, and it is not bad to come out to eat once in a while, and it is not bad to change the taste, especially by the way, Chen Jingchu was invited to eat a good place, which can be regarded as a reward for her act of sending melons.

But he didn't expect to run into Tian Gengsheng and his entourage, Fan Wuxian thought about it in his heart, and guessed that these people must not be invited to see Panshi, or they provoked Yang Tianhe, so they encountered this kind of unfair treatment.

Therefore, after Tian Gengsheng and the others left, Fan Wuxian called the waiter over and asked, "Where did those people come from just now?" ”

"A director of the Provincial Department of Water Resources seems to have heard about the flood control inspection team." The waiter had already recognized Fan Wuxi, and said to him with a smile, "Probably because of the unpleasantness with the city, Secretary General Yang is very unhappy." ”

Sure enough, Fan Wuxian smiled, and said in his heart that as soon as the dam broke here, your flood control inspection team came to the door, doesn't this clearly tell us that you are here for a purpose? It's no wonder that such a guy can be popular! However, Yang Tianhe is so angry, probably relying on his boss to be a minister now, right?

If you change to a not too tough backstage, Yang Tianhe will never be able to do this kind of thing that offends the higher-level inspection team.

Fan Wuxian nodded, then made a phone call, and then continued to eat with Chen Jingchu.

The food on the table on his side is very exquisite, two meat and two vegetables are the chef's specialties, a seafood soup is also stewed with live seafood, and the last two people also asked for sour plum soup, which is very comfortable to eat.

When Fan Wuxian and Chen Jingchu finished eating, a young man ran over, gave Fan Wuxian an envelope, and then turned around and left.

"What's the matter with this person, he doesn't even say a word, just drops his things and leaves?" Chen Jingchu was a little surprised.

"Oh, he's just running errandsβ€”" Fan Wuxian didn't explain much, opened the envelope and glanced at the contents inside, and then loaded it back.

"What's in there?" Chen Jingchu asked with some curiosity.

"Oh, it's just some material for the evening newspaper." Fan Wuxian said with a smile, "Wait to see tomorrow's evening newspaper, there is definitely very powerful news, and it is the kind with comments!" ”

Chen Jingchu felt inexplicable, but looking at Fan Wuxi's appearance, it was obvious that she would not be able to understand the details, so it was not good to ask again, she was very much looking forward to seeing any different news tomorrow night, it is estimated that Fan Wuxian should not lie, right?

Sure enough, after another very hot day, Chen Jingchu received the evening newspaper of the day, and a very eye-catching title on the second page was "How long can four dishes and one soup last?" ”

There are also two pictures on it, one is an empty table with four dishes and one soup, people are gone, the dishes are not moved, and the other is a staggered scene, several people order a table of food, as well as wine, and their faces are flushed.

The last comment is that the times are developing, and clean government must also be adhered to!

Today's second shift is delivered, and the third shift is not until after 11 o'clock, so you can leave it for tomorrow to see, staying up too late is not good for health. **********! ~! [To quickly find this site, please search in Baidu: Sanlian Literature Network]
