Luzhou Mansion was also invited by Chen Lao Shopkeeper, Zhao Shopkeeper, Zhang Shopkeeper and his owner, Tianxia Xing General Darthead, Boss Li should now be called Manager Li, the original helm in Jiangnan was moved to Luzhou Mansion by Manager Li, he himself is inspecting various places, this time he got the news and rushed back to celebrate Xiaolong High School. They arrived at noon on the first day of the day with Liao Chengzhi, and several stewards in charge of business in the state capital here also arrived one after another soon after they arrived.

Among the officials of the two places who were invited, there were six and Hexian Mengxian orders and their masters, and the entourage brought their own, and the original Wang County Orders had been promoted to the Luzhou Prefecture as the same governor.

There are the current prefect of Luzhou Mansion and Wang Tongzhi, and the entourage is brought by them, and the original Qin Governor has been promoted to Cangzhou Sanpin Zhizhou, which governs the four prefectures and four counties including Luzhou Mansion.

There are Qin Zhizhou and his family, the eldest prince of Qin (who is still his father's first staff) and his wife and children. In addition, there were local county officials and their families, local prefects and their families, all of whom arrived in a hurry to arrive the night before.

On this day, there must be artillery battles and fireworks. Compared with the fireworks of the Tang Dynasty, the fireworks of the Damin Dynasty have gone up several steps. One is that there are many patterns and colors, and the other is that the height has reached dozens of zhang, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it exploded in mid-air.

The cannons were hung on long bamboo poles stuck in the ground, far away from the horse rings, and there were ten hangings in total, each with 10,000 sounds. Several young men who were about to fight were nervously looking at Qin Zhizhou, who was about to give orders. The adults and children who were a few feet away from the artillery battle were all excitedly waiting for the fire to ignite while covering their ears with their hands. The dense crowd farther away were adults, children, the elderly, and women who had come to watch after getting the news for a long time. Because they all came from afar, they are all nobles in their eyes. Therefore, even if they wanted to come close to see the excitement, they could only stand there from a distance, laughing and joking with each other.

Wen Yue didn't see a big push of fireworks that his brother and uncles bought, so he was anxious. While turning his head around, he asked his mother who was standing beside him: "Mother! What about the fireworks in our house? Why didn't you see it? ”

Erya lowered her head and whispered back to him: "What's the hurry?" Fireworks can only be seen at night, and that is the best part of fireworks! What do you do with fireworks during the day? Just for that sound? ”

Wen Yue squinted and smiled secretly, holding his mother's arm and coquettishly: "Oops! I thought it was divided between my brother and them in private! It's good to be there, anyway, as long as I can see it when I put it in the evening! Hey! ”

Er Ya bent his fingers and gently knocked on his son's head twice, Wen Yue pretended to be in pain and shrunk his neck, and let go of his mother's arm and ran to find his friends who could play.

As soon as the hour comes. Qin Zhizhou gave an order: "Fire the cannon!" A few young men over there invariably pointed the spark in their hands at the fuse of the cannonball, and in an instant, "Crackle!" The sound of firecrackers was deafening. This was followed by the laughter of adults. The screams and laughter of children. After the last few big firecrackers, the lion dance begins, accompanied by gongs and drums to stir up the atmosphere. The villagers who were originally standing from afar to watch the excitement also came to the front unconsciously.

The lion dance has just ended. The host began to beckon the visitors into the house and began to eat breakfast. Although it was breakfast. Don't think this breakfast is going to be easy. First of all, there are many kinds of side dishes for breakfast alone, such as fried pickled vegetables in oil, pickled radish, salted duck eggs, fried capers, hot and sour pickles, fried salted fish, shredded bamboo shoots, cold salad coriander peanuts, coriander bean curd, boiled duck tongue, salted pork liver, salted pork tongue, salted duck head, etc., there are dozens of kinds. There is a porcelain pot with a lid that is as white as jade, and in each pot there is a bamboo tong specially used to hold vegetables. You want to eat whatever you want, and no one will talk too much.

The second is early, fried are: glutinous rice boiled into square cakes, glutinous rice boiled and made of meat foam made of meat balls, glutinous rice noodles made of hemp balls, wheat noodles made of small twist flowers, wheat noodles made of fritters, wheat noodles made of sugar balls, there are crispy spring rolls to eat, and so on.

In addition, steamed dumplings, xiao long bao, soup dumplings, wheat roast, scones, pancakes, veneer cakes, baked cakes, egg pancakes, donkey meat pancakes, bacon steamed buns, small cream steamed buns, chicken cakes, rice flour cakes and so on

With soup, there are chaos, dumplings, millet porridge, rice and red bean porridge, hot and sour starch soup, etc.

Don't look at so many tricks and think that there are a lot of chefs waiting in the back. In fact, there is only one master for this pastry, there is only one master for frying, and there is no special master for breakfast side dishes and soup. It's all about doing both.

Those deans, especially officials and ladies, may have eaten more and more high-class breakfast and side dishes than this. But there has never been such a complete list at once, and there has never been one for you to choose at will. They don't know what to order when they hold the plate, but they are not as happy as some students who have never been exposed to so many delicious foods. One by one, they sat at the dining table with a full plate of breakfast of their choice, enjoying it beautifully. This one said that the wheat roast he ordered was delicious, the other said that the duck tongue he ordered was delicious, some said that the capers were delicious, and some said that the donkey head was delicious, and everyone said that the one they ordered was the best.

The female guests in the women's small restaurant are more reserved, not as straightforward as the men's restaurant. However, from the fact that they ate all the food they ordered on the plate and had no residue, they knew that they were quite satisfied.

The villagers who were watching outside, Xiaolong did not ignore it, he had long known that there would be many people coming to watch on this day, so he asked someone to prepare big meat buns early. Adults, children, the elderly, women, one for each person.

Although the farmers around here have earned a lot of money because of the reeds, they are still reluctant to spend it on food and drink. The normal breakfast is a bowl of fried pickles and rice porridge, and when it is time to do farm work or have guests at home, there will be wheat flour baked with a few cakes and a meal. At this time, everyone is holding a big bun with a big mouth of the sea bowl, which is quite surprising. The child's mouth is idle, not waiting for the adults to speak. They opened their mouths and carefully bit the edge of the bun. Unexpectedly, I tasted the fragrant stuffing juice in one bite, and was pleasantly surprised to hold the bun to my mother: "Mother! Take a look. There is meat! ”

Adults all know that it is either a meat bun or a vegetable bun, but they didn't expect the bun to be so thin and stuffed so much.

"This champion Lang's family is different, but it's real!"

"That's it! You didn't listen to the Lai family, how well her grandson is doing in the Zhuangyuanlang family. Eat well, dress well, and ask the husband to come back and read to them. I was admitted to the show last year! ”

"Hey! Tell me about it! I've never figured it out, people say that they are poor and generous. But how can their family be so rich and generous? This is not the same as the poor man! No matter how generous the poor are, even if they give up all they have, it is only a few hundred or thousands of copper coins, and when they make a move, it is hundreds or thousands of taels of silver. That's a world of difference! ”

"Cut! You're just fooling around there, how many people are really rich and generous like the Zhuangyuanlang family? People are good-hearted, kind, and kind-hearted, and they can't see the poor suffering, do you think it's the same as the generosity of ordinary people? ”

"That's it! The eldest sister is right. The Lai family has something to say. This lord's generosity also looks at people. If it was that bad thing, they wouldn't even bring a bowl of rice. ”

“”

They chattered outside, and the people inside had already eaten, and as soon as they invited each other, they all began to walk towards the crater from the passage in the backyard while enjoying the beautiful scenery on both sides. There are curious half-grown children, who see the boat leaning on the side, and want to sit on the boat and play among the lotus leaves.

Each boat is equipped with a dedicated rower and water safety guards, and one boat carries three or four people. These boaters are veterans of the fishing area in the past. It was a gentle and delicate way to see them rowing, but it didn't take long for them to go far away. The lotus leaves, which were much higher than the water, quickly obscured each other's figures. Then the children began to giggle and shout to each other, this one: "Hey! Qin Chaoyang, where are you? ”

The one responded: "I'm here, where are you?" ”

In fact, the two of them were within a zhang, and it seemed that they were separated by a distance of 108,000 miles. The others laughed and shouted at me.

The adults were very interested in playing with the children, and they were also happy, even if it was an ordinary lotus field and no outstanding varieties of peonies, they were also enthusiastic to appreciate and discuss. When the interest comes, I will write poems and comment. The students were also excited and didn't know where they were because they were able to contact so many officials, scholars at the same time, the legendary history curator and the new champion! These beauties are not just beauties, they feel that they are all illusions!

Xiaolong and Xiaohu accompanied the male guests on the lotus field, talking and savoring the beauty of the scenery. Outside, Erya took the wives and children to pick melons and fruits in the vegetable fields on the periphery.

Seeing the cucumbers, vegetable melons, melons, and melons hanging on the shelves, those ladies and even the maids with them were amazed. Qin Zhizhou's wife and Erya had already known each other, and she asked Erya without hesitation: "Oops! Mrs. Wang! Why did you pick up melons so early? Look at it like this, you can eat it! ”

Erya replied with a smile: "Mrs. Qin can call the people's wife Wang Niangzi!" These melons and fruits, if you want them to bear fruit early, it is very simple, as long as you cultivate them in advance in the greenhouse, and when the weather gets hotter, you can transplant them, and as long as they can live, they can bloom and bear fruit a few months earlier. It's just that you must be careful when transplanting, if you don't do it well, it is often difficult to survive. And when it is flowering, if there are no bees collecting honey, you need to manually cross-pat each pollen to ensure that they will bear fruit after the flowers fall."

Mrs. Qin, who was listening carefully, suddenly smiled and said, "Oh! I see! However, this sounds simple, but it is not easy to do. When our family wants to make a greenhouse, we will have to ask Mrs. Wang for advice at that time! ”

"This is a trivial matter, when the time comes, Mrs. Qin will only have to order!" Erya replied with a smile.

Children are not much interested in the beautiful scenery compared to adults, they see a lot of cucumbers, melons, melons on the shelves, knowing that they are all delicious, they can't help but be greedy, have to get into the shelves to grab the melons and fruits inside.

Frightened, Er Ya hurriedly shouted at them: "Cucumbers can be picked as long as they grow up, but the melons and melons can't be eaten if they are not ripe, and if they are picked early, they will be ruined." And the flower can't be touched, otherwise it won't bear fruit. ”

Mrs. Qin's eldest daughter-in-law was next to Erya, covering her mouth and rushing to Erya's "hehe" Zhile. Erya looked at her with questions in her eyes, and she smiled for a long time before explaining, "Brother and sister! I can tell you, it's useless for you to shout at them. They don't know what a cucumber is, what a melon is, what a melon is, and you're shouting in vain! Hey! She couldn't help but laugh as she spoke.

Mrs. Qin teased her eldest daughter-in-law on the side: "Mrs. Wang, don't listen to what she says, in fact, she may not be able to recognize it herself." ”

Mrs. Qin's eldest daughter-in-law was unforgiving: "Mother! How can you tear down your daughter-in-law's stage? You should hug it! The other ladies who accompanied him also laughed playfully.

Erya also knew that these children might not be able to recognize the difference between these melons and fruits, but fortunately, Lai Mingxun's younger brothers and sisters had already followed up with the children of the villagers to help those children not pick them indiscriminately, so she was relieved.
