Chapter 9 Road Encounters
On an official road, a few healthy horses galloped, and immediately the young people were dressed in fluttering clothes, and the vitality of youth was vividly expressed in them. One day to see all the Chang'an flowers' meaning, these five people are leaving Weizhou to Chang'an Lu Zifei and his party, today this is good, the horse also ran for a while, the first half of the month every day is stop-and-go, touch here, look there, although riding a horse, but the day to walk is not more walking, Lu Zifei is fun, but the other four people are offended, they don't understand what is called a monument, sometimes Lu Zifei saw a happy place and shouted, Li Lin They looked at Lu Zifei with the same eyes as a fool, and loved to look for those literati and ink writers everywhere, sitting there and chatting for a long time, and said that they were going to Qinling Mountain to find those who cultivated immortals, Maybe you will meet a master of the Tao, and teach yourself a little bit of the ability to fly away from the world, Huzi is a good person to stop, Huzi is a native of Taibai County, Qinling has been there since he was a child, I don't know how many times he has been there, there are many people who have escaped the world, their lives are much more difficult than those under the mountain, he can't figure out why a good child would be interested in this.
During this time, Lu Zifei really let go of himself, a simple farmer, countless snacks, green mountains and green waters, this is Tao Yuanming's painting chrysanthemum under the east fence, leisurely see Nanshan, your soul will be purified, all this will infect you, if there is no war, no oppression, life is just like this, looking at the road closer and closer to home, Lu Zifei said that it is not nervous is false, two lives, it is still difficult to face the parents of this world, but the parents' love for their children is not mixed with a trace of impurities, and it is also applicable to him.
Huzi saw that Lu Zifei's horse was slowing down and asked him: "Zifei, we are resting there today, and we can't enter Qianyang County, if we miss this, then we will have to sleep in the wilderness." ”
Lu Zifei stopped the horse and said to him, "We will rest in Qianyang County for one night tonight, and we will fight for Chencang tomorrow, and it will be close to home when we arrive in Chencang. ”
Huzi thought for a while and said: "I'll send you home first, I'll go back, the letter to the family has already arrived, and they won't worry, Uncle Wang asked me to follow you, and let me leave only when I see you get home." ”
It's really a brainless child, in the Song Dynasty, where there were no thermal weapons, there were still more tigers, leopards and jackals, and they were about to go through the Qinling Mountains again, and one more person would also have one more guarantee, not to mention that there was a second generation of officials with them? I am helpless.
"What are you talking about there, my stomach is already hungry and my chest is against my back, isn't there a county town in front of me? Go in and have a look, find something to cushion your stomach first. Li Lin was impatient, he followed Lu Zifei for his own purpose, but he didn't find out that he was special than others all the way, that is, he was very particular about food and housing, and he was also very particular about clothes, and he loved to be clean, Li Lin felt that he had a habit of cleanliness, and several times he wanted to ask questions about the disease, but he was diverted by other topics, and Li Lin didn't know if he did it on purpose.
Lu Zifei said to him: "You know that Shaanxi is a big noodle province along with Shanxi and Henan, so do you know what noodles you should eat in Qianyang County?" Huzi and the other two also looked at Li Lin with a smile to see if he could answer.
Li Lin couldn't speak, and said angrily: "This is the first time I have left Kaifeng in 20 years, and it is also the first time I have set foot in Shaanxi. ”
Lu Zifei rode the horse for a long time, although the skin on the inner thigh can bear it, but the grinding is still uncomfortable, eat secondly, take a bath is what he wants most now, a few people came to a restaurant in the center of Qianyang County, handed the horse to Xiao Er and told him to use good forage, a few people were so comfortable all the way These horses are very strong, go up to the second floor to find a table by the window and sit down, order a few local dishes, and say to the shop Xiao Er, "First come a hundred bowls of flag flower noodles, a hundred bowls of Zhenzi noodles, first like this, after eating." The shopkeeper glanced at Lu Zifei and said, "Childe is an expert!" The sign of our store is Qishan noodles, so wait a minute, and it will be good right away. "One hundred bowls of flower noodles for table three flags, and one hundred bowls of noodles."
Li Lin learned to be obedient this time, Lu Zifei ordered two hundred bowls of noodles, and the three people who followed Lu Zifei actually seemed to be accustomed to it, which proved that they knew that five people could eat these, and they just waited to eat them.
"Childe, are they pigs? How can you eat so much, five people ordered so many dishes, and asked for two hundred bowls of noodles. It was the little girl at the table next to them who spoke, twelve or thirteen years old, a pair of cunning eyes seemed to be able to speak, and after speaking, he secretly glanced at Lu Zifei, Lu Zifei smiled and smiled at the little girl, Huzi They didn't want to worry about a little girl, but Li Lin played with a big heart, "Little sister, my brother will finish eating in a while, you will follow a few of us, how about it." As soon as Li Lin opened his mouth, the little girl was so frightened that she quickly hid behind their son, just now the boy sat sideways, Lu Zifei couldn't see his face, his own maid said the wrong thing, he had to get up and apologize, when he turned around, several people were stunned, how can a man look like this, a snow-white satin, a long white silk tassel around his waist, a piece of mutton fat white jade tied on it, covered with soft smoke Luo light yarn, eyebrows into the sideburns, bright and bright teeth, a pair of red phoenix eyes, long black hair hanging on both shoulders, holding an ivory folding fan, the image of a handsome son.
He seemed to be accustomed to other people's surprise at his appearance, and saluted Li Lin and said, "In Xia Cai Linxi, I'm really sorry, the little girl is ignorant and disturbed a few people to eat." He glared back at the little girl, who didn't care and stuck out her tongue.
Lu Zifei knew at a glance that this Cai Gongzi was Yi Hai and Ben, there are men who don't have an Adam's apple, unless he is a eunuch, the eunuch will not take a maid when he goes out, Li Lin also saw that he was a woman dressed as a man, the fragrance on his body was too strong, and the Great Song Dynasty had the custom of arranging flowers and applying powder on the head of men, but there would never be such a fragrance, so the rest was a Mulan.
Neither of them broke it, they were out of the house, it was convenient for them to be with others, and it was convenient for themselves, Lu Zifei said: "It's okay, the little girl shouldn't have eaten noodles here, right?" You see I called so much, Xiao Er instead said that I am a connoisseur, there is a reason why he does not stop it, the kind of noodles we want is called a mouthful of noodles in the local area, in short, a bowl of noodles is finished with only one bite, five people eat two hundred bowls of noodles is actually not a lot, I have seen a person eat at most nearly a hundred bowls at a time, as a foreigner to come here, first to understand his history, eating is inevitable, see more, listen more. ”
Cai Gongzi didn't expect this kind of statement, he also didn't come here for a long time, a little embarrassed, just when their dishes came up, Lu Zifei beckoned Li Lin and Huzi to eat, so as not to be too embarrassed, Li Lin gave Lu Zifei a thumbs up after taking a bite, and Lu Zifei also joined them, no one ate vegetables, and the sound of snoring and eating noodles came and went, until everyone ate until they couldn't eat, and they didn't want to say a word.
Don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients, some things have been passed down for thousands of years and have their own reasons, just take the noodles as an example, the future generations may not have the delicious food made at this time, many novels can be made more than the 21st century dishes after the passage, how is it possible, a lot of materials, seasonings will restrict your thoughts, maybe you know how to do it, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, such as chili peppers are not available now, you want to eat hot pot, that is you think too much, corn, potatoes are not available now, and the cooking technique is also very simple, either boiled or steamed, Why is Kaifeng's Fan Lou the best restaurant in the Great Song Dynasty, it is because they were the first to use stir-fried vegetables, and the pot of stir-fried vegetables is also very different from that of later generations, don't feel that you can do anything if you cross it, how can a person's wisdom be compared to the five thousand years of inheritance in China, Zhuge Wuhou is a number of smart people in history, but he still lost to Sima Yi, Lu Zifei thinks that he can't compare to Zhuge Wuhou, so hiding is also a kind of wisdom.
After eating, a few people washed up casually and came downstairs to see that Lu Zifei was already waiting for them, they were also used to Lu Zifei's habit, every time they went to a place, they always had to look around, Lu Zifei and Li Lin walked in front, Huzi and a few people in the back is a picture of a child's outing, Li Lin asked what he wanted to see today, Lu Zifei said to him, "Qianyang County is the hometown of Yan Ling, the first person in China, he studied under Confucius, he always wants to look at Lu when he misses his teacher, so there is only one place in Qianyang County to look at, that is Wanglu Terrace." "Probably told Li Lin some of Yan Ling's deeds, Li Lin was very depressed, why Lu Zifei could tell the origin of this place, places of interest, historical celebrities when he walked there, how could he not know anything, his background was much better than him.
This is a misunderstanding, the advantage of the 21st century is that the information is transmitted quickly, like these can be found directly on the Internet, and the ancients had an obsession with books, books can be borrowed between readers, ordinary people can't see books at all, this is why the most fundamental reason for the lack of books in ancient times, less is not circulated, Li Lin's family is illustrious, that is after Renzong took power, when Empress Dowager Liu listened to the government, Renzong didn't know his biological mother, Li Lin's home is not as good as Lu Zifei's family, to put it bluntly, it is a nouveau riche, The scholarly family needs the accumulation and heritage of generations, and Li Lin doesn't know that these real numbers are normal.
Fate is so bad that I can't think about it, and I was greeted by the two masters and servants of Cai Gongzi who met in the restaurant, and they were still a little embarrassed, Lu Zifei said, "Cai Gongzi also came out"
Before Cai Gongzi could speak, the little girl beside him said first: "Why are you again, are you following me and Gongzi." ”
Li Lin's son's temperament is offended: "This Qianyang County is not your family, you can come, we can't come." ”
A twelve- or thirteen-year-old girl quickly lost in the face of an old fritter like Li Lin, and everyone watched the two of them fight and didn't interject, this is a little fun on the journey, right?
