Because of this meal, Liu Yan directly announced that he would live in Chen Yuanheng's house in the future. Because in this way, you can ask Chen Yuanheng for advice at any time, Chen Yuanheng is his third uncle, he knows a lot in officialdom, and he is also a senior in terms of knowledge, Liu Yan is still in the learning stage, so he lives in Chen Yuanheng's house for convenience.

The Bai family naturally agreed, and was busy cleaning up a yard for Liu Yan to live in. Liu Yan hurriedly said: "Third aunt, don't bother, I'll just live with Brother Lin, in fact, when we were in the capital, I often lived in Brother Lin's small house." ”

Chen Wenlin had the heart to strangle Liu Yan, and when he heard that Liu Yan still wanted to live with him, he immediately said: "Mother, the eldest brother's yard is empty, and the mother has always sent someone to clean it up, it is very clean, why don't you let the fourth brother live in the eldest brother's yard?" ”

Bai's eyes lit up: "Yes, you see, I'm confused, I don't need to clean up the house now, Jun'er's yard is cleaned every day." It's just that there are some grievances against the four princes. ”

Liu Yan hurriedly said: "Where, it's much better to live in your own home than to live in an official post." ”

Chen Wenhui thought to herself, you just fell in love with my food. What a foodie, doesn't the emperor even give you something to eat? What a poor child.

In this way, Liu Yan lived in Chen's house. Of course, every day I get my wish to eat the food of Chenfu. In addition to eating, Liu Yan was not idle, and asked Chen Wenlin to take him around Deqing every day. Chen Wenlin and Chen Yuanheng took Liu Yan to see the trade fair in Deqing and the market in Ancheng. The trade fair in Deokgyong is not the day of the fair, so there are only a few scattered merchants trading here, and the market in Anseong is very prosperous. It's just that the market is a poultry market, so it smells a little weirder.

Later, Chen Yuanheng and Chen Wenlin also took Liu Yan to see their Zhuangzi in Ancheng, and saw the new crops corn, sweet potatoes, cotton, and the canals they led the people to build. In fact, by this time, the drought had been alleviated, and it was the end of June. The arrival of summer brought several heavy rainstorms, which alleviated the drought. Deqing did not look like it was affected by the disaster. Because Deqing has planted drought-tolerant crops this year, and there are canals to water it, Deqing must still have a bumper harvest this year.

Not in other places, although the drought has been lifted, but the crops have also died, and now there is no hurry to plant again, so there are many people who have fled the famine, and most of the fields are barren. A lot of weeds grow.

Liu Yan also looked at the construction site of the road. See the victims. It didn't look like a famine, but they were working in full swing, because they were given food and wages every day. So they worked very hard.

But Zhao Chongyi and Liu Jingyuan are different, they are suffering a huge impact. Zhao Chongyi was born in a wealthy family, he hated his background since he was a child, because he was a concubine, he suffered a lot of anger, if it wasn't for his biological father's loyal and righteous protection, he might have been killed by his mother-in-law. So he often thinks about how good it would be if he was born in a small family.

Now in the world-famous Suzhou, he thought. People all over the world say that there is heaven above, and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou below. But this Suzhou gave him a bad feeling. Along the way, there was starvation everywhere, overgrown with weeds, and I arrived in Suzhou. But it is a prosperous scene, the Qinglou restaurants are lined up one after another, and the pretty girls walking on the street abound. The strong contrast made Zhao Chongyi feel angry in his heart.

After a few days of running, according to the Lan family, he visited the jurisdictions of some of the most vicious officials, and also went to the jurisdictions of the officials who were praised outside, that is, the difference between heaven and hell. After half a month of exploration, Zhao Chongyi completed the task and returned to Deqing full of anger.

Liu Jingyuan came from a small family. His parents are kind, his family wealth is not rich, but he is also well-fed, he has been held in the palm of his parents since he was a child, and it can be said that he grew up in a sweet nest.

This trip to Heyang Prefecture gave Liu Jingyuan a great stimulus, Heyang is worse than Suzhou, which is an inland province, more remote, more backward, and the drought is more severe. They often walked for two days without people, some of them had starved to death, and some of them had fled the famine. In such a backward and poor place, corruption is even stricter, and those officials can really cover the sky with one hand, if it weren't for the accurate news of the Chen Mansion, anyone would be concealed. After half a month of investigation, Liu Jingyuan also returned to Deqing with a face of vicissitudes.

A few friends met in Bai's upper room. Since Liu Yan lived in the Chen family's house, like the children of the Chen family, he went to the Bai family's upper room every day to chat, which was the habit of the Chen family, and the cheeky Liu Yan also squeezed in as a niece and son-in-law. Here, everyone talks about what happened every day, and discusses what needs to be discussed.

Liu Yan has lived too comfortably for half a month. Every day there is a supreme delicious food, and every day I see something I have never seen before. For example, perfume, such as hatching chicks, such as the hot construction site, such as the farmers looking at the crops in the fields with satisfaction, such as various workshops, the workers are working non-stop, such as Deqing, Ancheng clean and tidy bluestone roads, all of which make Liu Yan happy.

In addition to these, the happy atmosphere of the Chen family, Chen Yuanheng and Bai, as elders, are open-minded and wise, and Chen Wenlin and Chen Wenhui, as children, are smart and quick-witted. Especially Chen Wenhui, in the past half a month, Liu Yan has found that he has paid more and more attention to this little girl.

She has superhuman wisdom that ordinary girls don't have, has quick thinking, has a capable taste, and has bright big eyes that shine with wisdom, what kind of eyes are they? It is only when we look at this eye that we understand what is clean, what is bright, what is clear, and what is full of wisdom.

Liu Yan likes to listen to Chen Wenhui analyze things, she can always analyze problems in a cocoon, always come up with strange solutions, she is the most moving to analyze problems, always talking, always full of confidence, always serious and wise.

But half a month passed quickly, and the two friends rushed back. Liu Jingyuan looked tired from the vicissitudes of life, and Zhao Chongyi was full of fire in his belly, which was about to explode. Looking at Liu Yan again, Liu Jingyuan and Zhao Chongyi couldn't help but want to moan, Liu Yan's face was full of yangguan, fine skin and tender meat, and he actually gained a little fat, well, this must be the food of Chen's Mansion is too delicious. And Liu Yan looked at Chen Wenhui's expression was really wrong, which Liu Jingyuan and Zhao Chongyi discovered almost as soon as they came back. Both of them had their hearts jumping.

But both of them chose to be silent, and the two of them first summarized the situation and told Chen Yuanheng and Liu Yan, Liu Yan frowned when he heard it, and wrote a secret letter overnight and sent it to the capital.

The next few days were spent with three friends wandering around Deqing Mansion waiting for the decree.

First of all, Liu Jingyuan and Zhao Chongyi finally ate the food of Chen's mansion. Liu Jingyuan was eating hotly, and Zhao Chongyi asked while eating: "Third aunt, why are these bean sprouts so delicious, and why is this tofu so delicious?" ”

Bai Shi was also full of maternal love for these two handsome guys, and hurriedly replied: "This bean sprout is fed with fresh bamboo shoots and tender meat juice, and this tofu is a dish that will be cooked in the ham now and then cooked." This filigree-like is the duck's tongue, and this crunchy is the chicken's palm. ”

Liu Yan actually wanted to ask these questions for a long time, but he was thin-skinned and embarrassed, so Zhao Chongyi asked right now. As soon as I heard that this seemingly ordinary bean sprouts had been fed with meat and bamboo shoots in advance, and the same was true of tofu, I couldn't help but smack my tongue.

Liu Jingyuan asked at this time: "What is the treasure in the palm of your hand?" ”

In fact, Zhao Chongyi and Liu Yan didn't know, and when they heard Liu Jingyuan's question, they immediately stared wide-eyed and waited for Bai's answer.

Bai Shi smiled and said, "The treasure in the palm is the round tender meat that protrudes from the chicken's claws. ”

Liu Yan and the three of them immediately looked at the plate of burning palm treasures in front of them. How many chickens are there, I'm afraid the emperor can't afford to eat them. Could it be that the Chen family has become so rich?

Chen Wenhui saw their questions and said: "Actually, these are not worth anything, we have our own farm at home, and there are many chickens and ducks." Every time we have a batch of chickens and ducks when they grow up, we kill them, and instead of selling them whole, we divide the meat into one part and take it to the restaurant, for example, one part of the chicken wings, one part of the chicken breast, and another part of the chicken legs. The restaurant will make the corresponding dishes according to these. As for the treasure in the palm, collect it in advance, send it to the house without take-out, marinate it in chicken fat, and take it out and burn it when you eat it. It doesn't cost anything. ”

Only then did Liu Yan and the three of them understand that feelings are like this. Then this chicken tongue soup and duck tongue are estimated to have come like this, it seems that the Chen family is still very good at adjusting their lives, spending not much money, and eating better than the emperor.

Zhao Chongyi and Liu Jingyuan immediately understood why Liu Yan didn't live in the official post, but wanted to live in the Chen Mansion. It's really thick-skinned. No wonder they're all fat.

Liu Yan saw the strange eyes of his two friends, pretending not to see it, but just concentrating on eating.

Zhao Chongyi and Liu Jingyuan hurriedly smiled and said to the Bai family: "Third aunt, your family's food is so delicious, pity us for staying overnight for half a month, not eating well, sleeping well, growing up so big and not suffering like this, it is better for our brothers to live in." In this way, please ask the third aunt to help us take care of the conditioning, and when we return to the capital in the future, the conditioning will be good, and the parents will not be worried. ”

Bai Shi was already a little distressed when he saw the two of them haggard, and after listening to their words, he couldn't help but feel more in his heart when he remembered that his eldest son was still outside, and hurriedly said: "Yes, my mother is worried, you are so haggard and so hard this time, your mother doesn't know how to feel distressed, just live here." I'll definitely give you a white and fat conditioning. ”

Liu Yan quietly flew two friends with an eye knife. What two thick-skinned guys.

Zhao Chongyi and Liu Jingyuan also learned from Liu Yan's previous appearance this time, and turned a blind eye to Liu Yan, choking Liu Yan's anger enough.

Chen Wenlin was the most unhappy, he was originally the darling baby of his parents, but since Liu Yan moved in, his mother's maternal love has been separated by Liu Yan, and he takes better care of Liu Yan than him, which has made him unbearable, and now there are two cheeky people to live in, which is really unbearable.
