Returning to the residence in Dongcheng, putting away the clothes and the scriptures, there was a sudden burst of aroma in the air, Xu You had been busy in Jinglu all morning, this would be hungry, his nose twitched and he came to the courtyard, there was curling smoke next door, and it seemed that he could hear the sound of a spatula turning.

It smells so good!

Xu You firmly believes that cooking requires talent, and the effect of the same ingredients made by chefs and ordinary people is completely different. Like now, just smelling the aroma, the saliva is really going to come out.

Reborn in this era, in addition to a few days of hard life in Yixing, since the beginning of the Jin Tomb, there has been no worry about food and clothing, not to mention the luxury of eating and drinking, at least it has reached the level of ordinary scholars, and occasionally there are delicious dishes from Fang Xiuniang. But compared with the incense at the moment, it is slightly inferior.

Maybe it's hungry......

Xu You thought about it, if you live for a long time, it is necessary to understand the details of your neighbors, although the possibility of being an enemy is almost zero, but it is always right to be careful if you are prepared.

"Knock knock!"

Xu You shouted, "Is there anyone?" ”

The sound of heavy and hurried footsteps of a man sounded in the courtyard, and the courtyard door suddenly opened, and he angrily reprimanded: "Dog, dare to entangle again, be careful that I take your life!" ”

He held the bamboo in his hand, his figure was burly and tall, Xu You's breathing suddenly suffocated, as if a big mountain was coming in front of the door, he pretended to be panicked and took two steps back, and said: "Lang Jun, don't be annoyed, I'm not a bad person!" ”

The man has thick eyebrows and big eyes, the face of the national character is square, and the dense worn-out patches on his body can't hide the dignified appearance of his face, he is full of righteousness, and when he saw Xu You standing in front of him, he was stunned, looked left and right, didn't see anyone else, and frowned: "Who are you?" ”

Xu You pointed to the courtyard next to him and said, "I live next door, and I am close neighbors to Lang Jun......

The man put away the bamboo in his hand and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I thought it was those rangers who made trouble during the day......"

Xu You smiled: "I have no power to tie the chicken, I have never been bullied, and I have never made trouble." If you really smash it over, I won't be able to get up for half a day. ”

Listening to Xu You's ridicule, the man was even more embarrassed and hurriedly apologized. Xu You took the opportunity to say: "I live alone, and I haven't had time to build a fire yet, so I will be really hungry in my belly, I don't know if I can use an excuse to eat?" Of course, I will give you the money for the meal, not for nothing......"

The man turned sideways, smiled honestly, and said, "A mouthful of rice, whatever money you charge, just eat it." ”

"The night is coming, the guests are coming!"

Come at night, good name, just don't know what the last name is?

It's still the girl I saw last time, she came out of the house in response, wearing a plain dress, and when she saw Xu You, she obviously recognized it, and then returned to the room after giving a slight salute.

"She doesn't like to talk much, don't be surprised by Lang Jun! Come, please take a seat. ”

Sitting down on the stone bench in the courtyard, the weather was cold, and there was a chill on the buttocks, but look at this man, he was as safe as Yi, Qingming said that his cultivation was not low, and he would not be wrong.

"The contemptible Lin Tong, who was originally a person who knew how to write sentences, was in turmoil at that time, and had no choice but to leave home and live in Qiantang, and was lucky to save his life, and now he sells words in the East Market for a living."

Xu You reported to his home, first dispelled the man's doubts, and also set his words. The man said: "My name is Sha Sanqing, a native of Jingzhou, there is no one in the family, in the early years, I followed the owner of the boat as an escort, and later I was tired of the bumps on the sea, so I stayed in Qiantang." ”

"Qiantang Beauty, Brother Sha turned out to be like me, and he was fascinated by the mountains and rivers here."

Sha Sanqing shook his head and said: "I'm not like Brother Lin who is a scholar, I can live in good mountains and rivers, and I can live in poor mountains and bad waters, so I don't have anything to pick." The reason why I stayed in Qiantang was only because it was a home in the cheap. Although she has no relatives, Qiantang is still a place to grow and raise after all......"

While talking, the girl came out of the room, took the cleaned dishes and chopsticks, walked to the thatched shed in the northwest corner, and came over with two bowls of steaming dumplings. One bowl was placed in front of Xu You first, and then the other bowl was handed to Sha Sanqing, and then he bowed his head and left.

The practice of gluttony is more elegant, first use fine silk sieve noodles, then mix with gravy, and then knead into a thin sheet of dough by hand, when boiling in the pot, tear into two inches and one break, after the pot is smooth and white and greasy like snow, it is very good-looking.

Xu You smelled the aroma coming from his nose, which was even more moving than Fang Cai next door, and he couldn't help but make a gurgling sound in his abdomen.

Sha Sanqing said: "It seems that Brother Lin is hungry, come on, come, don't be polite, try the craftsmanship of the insiders!" ”

Xu You picked up the bowl and said with a smile: "Then I'm welcome, the food looks ugly, don't spoil Brother Sha's appetite." ”

Saying that he tasted it, it was as thin as a leek leaf, it was really smooth and beautiful, he was full of praise, three times five divided by two, and he pulled a bowl of boiled noodles clean.

Sha Sanqing laughed, pushed the untouched bowl in front of him again, and said, "Another bowl!" ”

Xu You really didn't eat enough of such a small bowl, but he was embarrassed to eat it again, and said, "How can that be?" I am a wicked guest who borrows food, how can I even eat my master's food? ”

"It's okay, there's still a lot in the pot, I'll serve it later." Besides, it's okay if I don't eat for a day or two, but Brother Lin, your body is weak, this ghost is getting colder and colder, eat more to keep out the cold, people like us, it's not a joke to get sick. ”

How to be familiar with strangers in a short period of time, Xu You knew the proportions, scratched the back of his head, and said, "Then, I'll be disrespectful?" ”

After eating another bowl, Xu You touched his stomach, hit the table with his hand, and shouted: "Cook in the wind, smell the fragrance in five miles." If you weren't cheeky today, how could you know that there are such delicious delicacies in the world? ”

Seeing that Xu You was eating so happily, Sha Sanqing looked very happy and said, "If Brother Lin doesn't dislike it, just come here to eat and drink every day." ”

The last time I saw the girl holding a basin full of dirty clothes, she must have helped people wash and earn some hard-earned money, and the patches on Sha Sanqing's body showed that their lives were extremely hard, but this person was generous and bold, without the slightest twist, which made people feel heartbroken at first sight.

"I'm really a villain then...... But if you have another bowl today, Brother Sha won't mind, right? ”

"Hey, Brother Lin, listen to me......"

Xu You didn't wait for Sha Sanqing to refuse, picked up the bowl and walked to the stove, there was only little water left in the pot, where was there any extra gluttony?

In fact, this was Xu You's expectation, the dumplings were so time-consuming and laborious, and they needed expensive gravy, and it was impossible for them to eat it often with their financial resources, let alone make too much, so they only made two bowls, but all of them went into his stomach.

Xu You silently put down the bowl, walked in front of Sha Sanqing, slammed it to the ground, and then turned around and went out without saying a word.

The girl came out of the room, leaned against the wooden door, and said, "What do I say?" Ah Lang is sincere to people, but it can't compare to a bowl of gluttony. Today's birthday, I just went to Aunt Li's house to ask for some gravy to make dumplings, but I didn't expect this person to eat two bowls in a row, and he was not satisfied, so he left in a rage. Oh, the people who read in the world are all pigs and dogs......"

Sha Sanqing said: "You, don't be prejudiced against readers. I see that this Lin Langjun has a good heart and a free and easy temperament, not like an unrighteous person! ”

"Really? How dare Aaron make a bet with me? ”

Sha Sanqing smiled bitterly: "Come again? What to bet on? ”

The girl's bright eyes flowed, and she smiled, and she bloomed with endless charm and charm, if it weren't for her dark complexion, you could almost imagine how seductive it was.

Half an hour later, Xu You came to the door again, this time not empty-handed, but carrying five catties of pork, a fish and a pot of wine, and placed them on the stone table where he had just eaten.

Sha Sanqing's face was gloomy, and he said, "What is Brother Lin doing, but do you look down on me?" ”

Xu You smiled: "Brother Sha, don't think too much, this is not for you." I just ate my sister-in-law's gluttony, and I can't eat any more soup from other places. Therefore, these things are stored in your place first, and I will be able to borrow food for my own use. ”

Sha Sanqing's face turned slightly pale, and said: "You take these back, just come over and eat them when it's time to eat, but as long as there is gruel in my mouth, I will never let Brother Lin go hungry." ”

Xu You grinned, leaned over, and said in a low voice: "I'll say something from my heart, Brother Sha don't be angry." Today's gluttony, I'm afraid you can only eat it occasionally. I have nothing else to do, I love food the most, and I can't eat gruel with Brother Sha every day. ”

Sha Sanqing is not a fool, he knows that Xu You said this just so that he could accept these gifts. He has a bold and generous temperament, and he doesn't care about his belongings outside his body, since Xu You has a heart, he is happy to meet such a friend, and said: "Okay, leave the things, and let the night come to deal with it when you come over for dinner." ”

"Okay!" Xu You shook the wine in the pot and said, "However, I can't wait for the wine that has just been warmed, please trouble my sister-in-law to make a fish, and I will accompany Brother Sha to drink this pot of wine." ”

At this time, the atmosphere, regardless of the north and south, is all good wine, Sha Sanqing is also fond of things in the cup, and he has not drunk alcohol for many days, looking at the wine jug, the gluttonous worm went straight up, turned his head and shouted: "Come at night, this fish is taken to do, Brother Lin and I have a good drink." ”

The fish is ready, the aroma is the same, Xu You and Sha Sanqing push the cup to change the lamp, a strong man with martial arts, a thin scholar, but the conversation is quite deed. Xu You drank less alcohol, and the fish and meat did not move. Sha Sanqing drank a lot of wine, and only ate less than half of the fish.

A pot of wine was exhausted, it was late, and Xu You said goodbye. Sha Sanqing called out the girl and said, "Hungry, right?" There is still fish on the plate, so eat some to fill your stomach first. ”

"I don't eat what others have leftovers......

Sha Sanqing's eyes were full of love, and said, "It's not that I don't know that you have always loved clean...... Brother Yulin didn't move for a while, his mind is very clear, I ate you and my gluttony at noon, I was afraid that I would be hungry, and I was afraid that you would be hungry, so in the name of drinking, I gave you this fish that I made. ”

"Huh?" The girl tilted her head and said, "In this way, this Lin Tong is not one of those cold readers......

Sha Sanqing smiled: "So, you lost!" ”

"If you lose, you lose, what can you do with me?"

The girl seemed to be cowardly, and she glanced at Sha Sanqing crisply. Sha Sanqing seems to have returned to the old days of the down-and-out rivers and lakes, and his body is drugged, it is the most helpless trough in his life, the same woman, like the bright moon in the sky, holding an oil-paper umbrella, came from the wind and rain, covered the rain line that poured his body, bowed his head, smiled, and illuminated his world.
