Chapter 1316: Crispy Spring Cocoon

"Brother Xiaoxu, we're back!" The light and shadow flashed at the door, and a beautiful and delicate elf girl in a gauze skirt ran in, holding a lotus pod in her hand, her cheeks were red, and there was a slight sweat on her forehead.

"So happy, where did you go today?" Chen Xu asked with a smile.

"I went to the lake in the west of the city, the lake is rich in lotus roots, we picked a lot of lotus seeds, and when the time comes, you can make white fungus lotus seed soup, I will take you to see!" The girl put her arm around Chen Xu and walked out.

"Husband~"

"Hou Ye~"

"Daddy"

Outside the door, the water was soft, and a group of maids and three daughters were getting out of the carriage, and some servants were moving things down from the carriage.

But looking at these things, Chen Xu couldn't cry or laugh, in addition to a large basket of lotus seeds, there was also a large basket of chicken heads, and some snails, eels, river shrimp and crabs, all of which were eaten.

"Hee-hee!" Looking at Chen Xu's expression, a group of women couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

"I knew you were all out to play!"

Chen Xu squatted down and looked through the bamboo basket and rattan basket, asked the servants to move to the kitchen to raise it with clean water, and then took the youngest daughter Yanxia, kissed her on the face a few times, and then returned to the restaurant with the family.

Time flies, half a year has passed, the youngest daughter is already five months old, I originally wanted to leave Yanxia and Fangfei in my hometown for her parents to help with them, but Meng Wan and Ying Shiyan were reluctant, so they had to take a tour of the mountains and rivers, although the weather was hot, but fortunately, there were many people who took good care of her, and she has been healthy, which also made Chen Xu worry a lot.

After a group of women returned to the hotel, they washed and changed their clothes and made up, and then they all gathered on the balcony on the third floor of the hotel to sit on the ground and chat and talk, and at the same time, they could also condescendingly watch the scenery of the entire Guangling County and even the surrounding areas.

Guangling is located in the plain, the city and the city are full of ditches, canals and lakes and ponds, at this time the sun is slanting to the west, the sun shines everywhere under the reflection of the sparkling waves, the fishing boats come and go fishing songs and singing, into the eyes of a water town scenery, look and Xianyang is completely different from the roughness.

"Is Guangling really a good place? It's autumn now, but it's still vibrant, and the eyes are green, it's just too hot, it's not as dry as Xianyang......" Ying Shiyan stood beside Chen Xu and whispered.

"Right now, the harvest of Xianyang's autumn grain is complete, and everywhere is going to wither and yellow, but Taiyi Mountain is strange and majestic, and it is not comparable to this southeast scenery, each has its own strengths, and this trip is worthwhile!" Chen Xu hugged Ying Shiyan and smiled at the scenery.

"Husband, today we found a bookstore in the city, the environment is quiet, bamboo slips and printed paper books are available, some bamboo slips record many interesting stories of Guangling, there is a middle school next to the bookstore, in a clothing house we also met an acquaintance, it turned out to be a student of the women's college three years ago...... "The water is gentle and the breeze is in the window, the hair is clear, and the black dress is fluttering and rolling.

"It's such a coincidence, it seems that the original opening of the women's college was not in vain!" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"It's not in vain, the women's college opened by the husband is now the most desirable place for girls in the world, as long as it is a student who graduated from the women's college, no matter where it is, it can be respected, I heard that when this clothing house opened, even the Guangling County Decree went to congratulate ......"

"Report, Master Hou, Guangling County Order is coming to visit!"

Just when Meng Wan was talking about the Guangling County Order, a guard went upstairs to report that the Guangling County Order had arrived.

"Say Cao Cao Cao is here, you guys are here for the time being, and I'll go to meet the county order!" Chen Xu waved his hand downstairs, and sure enough, he saw the Guangling County Commander, the County Lieutenant, the County Cheng and a few gray-haired old men waiting in the lobby together.

"I'll wait to meet the Marquis of Qinghe!"

"No courtesy, no courtesy, sit!"

After a simple greeting between the two sides, the guests and the host were seated, in addition to the county commander and the county lieutenant, several old men Chen Xu also saw yesterday, all of them were the elders of Guangling, there was such a great god as Chen Xu descended in Guangling, these people naturally had to come to brush their faces, so they had to come sooner or later.

Chen Xu should not be surprised by this situation, it is impossible to see it behind closed doors, he went out this time to inspect and understand the achievements of the reform of the entire Great Qin world over the years, and naturally he will warmly receive the locals everywhere he goes, whether it is ordinary people or officials, celebrities, gentry and businessmen, all of whom will come to visit, and drink tea and chat with these people and even drink and talk.

Therefore, Chen Xu's low-key and pro-people attitude also made the people, officials, celebrities, and businessmen who passed by all the way reacquaint themselves with this famous immortal disciple who has been famous all over the world for a long time, and it is indeed different from all the princes in history.

"I heard that Master Hou went to the silk factory today to make food for those weavers, and it is a pity that the lower officials and other official officials were unable to go to taste it!" Guangling County Commander had a regretful expression on his face.

"It's extreme, what the county lord said is very true, Hou Ye is rumored to be the appearance of Daqin, and he is the originator of the world's food, we really don't have a mouthful!" The rest of the group also began to shake their heads and pat their ass.

"Haha, what's so difficult about this, it just so happens that Ben Hou brought back some delicacies from the silk factory today, how about taking them to you to taste?" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"That's a good feeling, I won't shirk the delicious taste of the Hou Ye when I wait!" A group of people thanked each other happily.

So Chen Xu instructed the guards to go to the back kitchen to bring a pot of fried silkworm chrysalis brought back from the silk factory today to the lobby, and at the same time, a maid brought a dinner plate and filled seven or eight pieces for each of the county lieutenants of Guangling County and others and put them on the coffee table in front of them.

"This is a new dish made by Ben Hou today, please~"

Chen Xu raised his hand to signal, a group of people did not refuse, although fried pasta is rare among the people, but as a high-level person, there are fried dishes for sale in Shenyuan's restaurant, and the taste is fragrant and popular among diners.

"Click~Click~"

The fried silkworm pupae is wrapped in a thin layer of paste, fried until golden, so the entrance is extremely crispy, and there are seasonings such as onions, ginger, garlic mustard, etc., plus the rich protein of the dried silkworm pupa, and the fragrance is strong after frying, so a group of people watched and tasted it, and all couldn't help but praise it loudly, and said that this delicacy is indeed appetizing, so in the sound of non-stop patting, a group of bearded men also did not care about the image of the hands and feet, click and rub, and soon the plate in front of everyone was empty.

"Delicious, crispy, crunchy in the mouth, it is the most delicious food that Xia Guan has ever tasted, but I don't know what is wrapped in the noodle sauce, the shape is so strange......"

The Guangling County Commander was still carefully observing the food in his hand while eating.

"This thing can be seen everywhere in the southeast counties, it is not a rare thing, but no one has eaten it in the past, but Ben Hou will not say it today, if you want to know, you can go to the silk factory and ask!" Chen Xu sold a pass, afraid that if he suddenly said it, a group of people would vomit.

"And what's the name of this dish?" Someone couldn't help but ask again.

"This dish is a new creation of Benhou, and the name is ...... Crispy spring cocoon ......"

"Well, it's exactly like its name......"

"Daddy, Xi'er is hungry~"

Just when Chen Xu accompanied a group of people to taste and discuss fried silkworm chrysalis, Yu Ji led Chen Xi downstairs and passed by the lobby, and saw a group of people eating, and it smelled fragrant, and immediately couldn't help shouting.

"The son-in-law is delicate and well-behaved, she is really lovely, she will definitely be a first-class rich person in the future, and she will be a good ...... old man with gray hair when he saw Chen Xi, and then he couldn't help but praise it, and then took two fried silkworm chrysalis from the plate and handed them to Chen Xi.

"Thank you, elder!" Chen Xi took it very politely, and then couldn't wait to pick one up, opened his mouth to reveal a tooth and clicked down, and instantly cheered, "Wow, Daddy is eccentric, he made such a delicious meal and didn't give it to us, I'll tell a few aunts ......"

Chen Xu: ......

"Give my aunt something to eat~"

Seeing Chen Xi turn around and go upstairs again, Yu Ji also hurriedly chased after him.

There was a burst of laughter in the room instantly, and the old man wiped his hands with his sleeve and said with a smile: "The son-in-law is indeed cute, it seems that I will let the Hou Ye be punished tonight!" ”

"Hahahaha~" A group of bearded men laughed again, and then stood up together and arched their hands, "I really shouldn't have taken the liberty to come to disturb Lord Hou today, and I will come to visit tomorrow when Lord Hou has to be free!" ”

"Hey, don't worry, Ben Hou will leave Guangling early tomorrow morning to go to Wuzhong, I'm afraid there is no chance to come to Guangling again in the short term, just a few Hou concubines returned from playing outside the city, brought back some shrimp, crab and snails, Ben Hou went to the kitchen to personally instruct the chef to make a few dishes of wine to come out, and later go to the balcony together, watch the sunset, bathe in the breeze, and talk about the lamp!" Chen Xu smiled and stood up to stay.

"Huh?!" A group of people were stunned for a moment, and the Guangling County Commander said with an anxious face, "It is rare for the Hou Ye and several Hou concubines to come to Guangling, and the lower officials and others have not yet fulfilled the friendship of the landlord, so why should they leave in such a hurry!" ”

"Yes, yes, Hou Ye just came to Guangling for only two days, although Guangling is small, but there are some beautiful scenery that has not been seen elsewhere, Hou Ye must stay for a few more days, so that I can wait to accompany and play for a few days, and I can also listen to Hou Ye's teachings, how can I just go!" A group of old men were not calm for a moment, and they persuaded one after another, and their words were extremely sincere.

"Your good intentions Benhou has understood, Guangling will definitely come again in the future, this time Benhou inspected the southeastern counties, mainly for the smooth road plan, this matter is related to the prosperity and development of Daqin in the next few decades, Benhou has to be cautious, this go to Wuzhong can only stay for two or three days, the vast sea of the southeast counties Benhou will have to inspect this time, I really dare not delay......"

Hearing Chen Xu say this, a group of people gradually stopped, their faces full of regret.

Chen Xu is telling the truth, the scale of the Tantu plan is huge, and now each issue of Daqin Metropolis Daily uses a large page to introduce in detail the preparation and construction of supporting projects in various places.

Although Guangling is not in the first phase of the plan, but because of the convenience of Hangou, a large number of officials and messengers are from Huaiyin to go straight to Guangling, and then cross the river to Huiji, which will save at least five or six days of time, plus the silk factory is still in the process of building and expanding, almost at any time there are officials from the East China Sea, Surabaya and even Xianyang, plus now business travel is frequent, so Guangling is small, but the news is very developed, a lot of news will be transmitted from Xianyang to this place within half a month, the latest issue of the newspaper is already the end of June, The movements of the imperial court and throughout the country were well known to all.
