Some time ago, the continuous autumn rain made the water level of the Ganjiang River high, and the weather warmed up, there was a gentle south wind blowing, and the painting boat all the way to the north actually had the feeling of a modern yacht. It's really a smooth sail and a smooth sail.

In the south of many rivers and lakes, taking a boat is really much more convenient and faster than a carriage and horse. In the evening of the next day, we arrived at the boundary between the north and south of Poyang Lake, Songmenshan Island.

Nasongmen Mountain Island is a relatively large island in Poyang Lake, and it is the boundary between the north and south lakes of Poyang Lake, although it belongs to Yongxiu County, it is very close to Duchang County opposite. Even in later life, it was just a remote town, and at that time it was just a deserted sand island, with no scenery to see. Except for the tidal flats, that is, the reckless jungle. Fang Zhongyong invited a few people who were tired of being on the boat to get off the boat and move their legs and feet.

Everyone knew about Fang Zhongyong's little abacus, and they all refused for various reasons, only Yan Quanjie and a few children were very eyeless and noisy to go ashore to play. Fang Zhongyong actually didn't mind a few small light bulbs following, after all, the brightness was not enough, and there was no big problem. In addition, although the atmosphere of the Song Dynasty was not as direct as that of the Ming and Qing dynasties, even if men and women were not kissed, it was still necessary to avoid suspicion.

Under the sunset, Yan Quanjie, Yan Xuanli, and Yan Chongrang ran on the tidal flats, played, and occasionally picked up a shell to compare with each other, which was incomparably harmonious.

Yan Rongyue said: "These guys are so naughty, I will let my mother punish them when I turn around." ”

Fang Zhongyong didn't care: "The oldest Quanjie is only eleven years old, and it is the time for teenagers to play." Laughing once in a while isn't a big deal, and Sister Keiko shouldn't keep her face strained all day! ”

"Who's strained? It's just that my mother said to be dignified and to smile without showing my teeth, so as not to be looked down upon by others. I'm not like you, I'm not old, and I'm pretending to be old-fashioned, pretending to be some kind of young man. When he gets old in the future, he must be an old-fashioned old master. Yan Rongyue's lovely eyebrows bent up again, and the affection in her eyes instantly overwhelmed Fang Zhongyong.

Fang Zhongyong shouted: "Keiko, I'll sing you a song!" It's not a word card, it's sung by one of my favorites, it's called "The Gift". ”

What to say, I don't know

Too many words to disappear in the chest

The blue sky overhead, silent and high

It makes me feel at peace to have you around

The endless road, the endless end of the world

In the years of burning, there was a long wait

Beware of the joy in your heart, open up in an instant

I want to have you by my side and share with you

It makes me feel at peace to have you around

In the silent night, once prayed for you

Wish I was you, the gift of life

Beware of the joy in your heart, open up in an instant

I want to have you by my side and share with you

The endless road, the endless end of the world

In the years of burning, there was a long wait

Beware of the joy in your heart, open up in an instant

I want to have you by my side and share with you

In the silent night, once prayed for you

Wish I was you, the gift of life

Beware of the joy in your heart, open up in an instant

I want to have you by my side and share with you

What to say, I don't know

Too many words to disappear in the chest

The blue sky overhead, silent and high

It makes me feel at peace to have you around

……

On the painting boat not far away, the Wang family, who was worried about Fang Zhongyong's "bad", saw a pair of beautiful people under the distant mountain at sunset, and couldn't help but praise: "What a good couple!" Yan Juhou cooperated: "I really envy others!" ”

Wang's face changed quickly: "What is there to envy?" Your father has already set Li Zongne's daughter as your wife, you are addicted to wine and have a lot of prevarication, seeing that you are both going to be twenty years old, and you have failed the good years of other girls. When you enter Beijing this time, you must get married, otherwise you will study at home, and when will you be admitted to the top and then go out to fool around! ”

Yan Juhou was anxious: "With a child's talent, how can I get into the top prize." Is my mother going to lock me up for the rest of my life? ”

Wang persuasive: "I also know that the Li family has a mediocre appearance, and my son may not be able to look at it." But marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous man, that Li's grandfather Li Wenzheng is a generous gentleman, and his father has also served as the country's son of prison for many years. As for how many concubines you want to marry, it's not all up to you? ”

Yan Ju smiled with thick eyebrows, naturally he was like a fart.

Not to mention the people who eat melons, just say that Yan Rongyue liked it very much after listening to Fang Zhongyong's out-of-tune "Gift", but she felt that although the tone was simple, it made Ai Lang's heart clear, and said shyly: "I also hope to be a gift from Lang Jun!" I just think that Yi Fang Lang is so handsome, will he receive a lot of gifts? ”

Fang Zhongyong was embarrassed, and when he was about to defend and was speechless, his six-year-old brother-in-law Yan Chongrang heard that there was a gift and asked for it. In order to thank Zhengtai for relieving the siege, Fang Zhongyong hugged him and asked, "What gift does Chongrang want?" Yan Chongrang opened his front teeth and said: "Yesterday's whole fish banquet was delicious, brother, you can do it again!" ”

"No matter how delicious something is, if you eat it continuously, it won't taste good. Let's eat called flower chicken today. ”

"What's it called a flower chicken? Is it tasty? ”

"Wait for my brother to call you."

The ecological environment of the Song Dynasty was good, and many animals that were listed as protected objects in later generations can be seen everywhere on the island. The pheasants are not like they are often chased and frightened, they are stupid and stupid. When he saw someone coming, he did not hide from it, but kept his guard from afar. Fang Zhongyong picked up a stone casually, flipped it and threw it out, and a pheasant "died of fragrant jade".

A few little guys saw that it was interesting, and they also threw up the stones, but their heads were not good, and they "startled a shoal of gulls and herons" in vain, if it weren't for Fang Zhongyong's opportunity to hit a few more, he was afraid that the flower chicken would not be enough to eat.

The method of calling the flower chicken is very simple, let the cook wash and peel the chicken, find some large pieces of bamboo leaves to wrap, paste the mud, and put it into the fire to burn. The more elegant method is naturally wrapped in lotus leaves, supplemented by cooking wine to remove the fishy smell, filled with spices, and made a thing called Hanako into a high-end product. But now it's late autumn, where are there any fresh lotus leaves available, and the spices are not complete, just have a fun meal.

Watching a few children make fires and play with mud, Yan Chengyu, who watched coldly, was very disdainful of the childish behavior of his younger brothers. The eccentric Yan Chong's eyes rolled and said, "Second brother, Brother Wenyuan asked me a question yesterday, and I answered it wrong. You're so smart, you must be able to answer correctly, right? ”

Yan Chengyu was very interested in his younger brother's horses, and said arrogantly: "Even if you say it! ”

"Brother Wenyuan asked me, there are five birds in the tree, how many are there after the next one?"

"What a fool, such a simple arithmetic can't do it! There are four left! ”

Yan Chongrang pointed to the pheasants that were running away with his hand, and laughed.

Seeing that Yan Chengyu was about to be annoyed and angry, Fang Zhongyong hurriedly rescued Yan Chongrang in the fire and water, and turned around and said: "There is little pheasant meat and firewood, not enough for everyone to eat." Would you like to go with your brother to the woods to hunt some prey? A group of people said yes in unison.

There is the old family general who said: "Fang Gongzi doesn't know anything. Although it is not like the many jackals, tigers and leopards in the north, it is often infested with pythons, and there are also rumors of wild boars hurting people. Childe must be guarded against! ”

Fang Zhongyong groaned, cut some thin and hard bamboo, sharpened it into bamboo spears, each holding one, and said to everyone: "Everyone take it in their hands." If there are snakes and insects, you can get rid of them. If there are wild boars, throw them far away to kill or injure them. Watch me demonstrate. ”

Fang Zhongyong ran two steps, threw hard, and landed far on the river beach, there were 100 steps, and he was a proper world champion in the future. Everyone praised "Wenyuan is so powerful" and threw it one after another. However, due to the lack of the essentials, most of them glide in the void for a short distance, and the tip of the gun cannot touch the ground, I am afraid that it is not an "effective achievement".

Fang Zhongyong said the necessity of running, the balance of the bamboo gun posture, and several people also seemed to be throwing. At this time, Fang Zhongyong proposed: "Let's go, go hunt wild boars." Seeing that Yan Rongyue was a little worried, Fang Zhongyong smiled and said: "It's okay, just call the family general over to protect it, we don't need to go deep into the dense forest, just go around the side, and it will be fine." ”

It is said that one of the man's big lies is the sentence "only go around the side, not deeply". A group of people went into the woods, where can they still care about the question of whether they go deep or not, and it is not enough to be happy.

As soon as I entered the forest, I saw a hare running away from the crowd. Everyone threw out a bamboo gun, and they didn't even catch a rabbit hair, so they couldn't help but be a little discouraged. Fang Zhongyong said: "This spear-throwing technique, the forbidden army has many drills. It's rare that we can go far as we start, so we don't need to be discouraged. And the hare moves quickly and turns quickly, if you don't calculate the time and direction in advance before shooting, it will be difficult to stab. After all, rabbits are on the run. With that, he measured the direction, speed, and direction of the wind in which a hare was running, left a margin, raised his hand and threw it, and the hare fell to the ground in response.

Zeng Gong said: "Wenyuan's arithmetic is so exquisite, just used for a rabbit, isn't it suspected of cutting chickens with a knife?" Yan Rongyue didn't like this bloody scene, and also teased: "For a poor rabbit, I have been calculating for a long time, Brother Wenyuan is really calculating!" ”

Fang Zhongyong was about to explain the difficulty of hitting a moving target and its role in the war, when a disturbed wild boar rushed at him. The wild boar is a thick boar with rough skin and thick flesh, and an ordinary hunting bow is not enough to pose a threat to it, and it is a tendon, once provoked, it will be chased closely, and ordinary hunters dare not provoke it. A group of guards were like facing a great enemy, each drawing a knife to protect everyone, and Li San even raised a knife in front. Fang Zhongyong said "It's okay", raised his hand and threw a bamboo gun, which hit the wild boar's right eye, and immediately entered his brain. The wild boar seemed to have been immobilized, and it fell to the ground in an instant.

Li San praised: "Young master, good means! is the elite of the border army, and it can't be better than the young master! ”

Yan Juhou, who smelled the fragrance of the flower chicken, said: "That's right. I have no good horses in the Great Song Dynasty, and I often feel overstretched when I fight with the Western Xia and Northern Liao with the horses sold by the Qingtang Dynasty, and the people of my Central Plains are not like the people of the Liaoxia who are born on horses, and they are not afraid of attacking fortifications, but they often lose many battles in the field. It is that the forbidden army and the border army often practice the art of throwing spears to deal with the enemy's cavalry. Like this bamboo pole, if it is in front of the iron arrowhead, its power is by no means under the crossbow of the Western Xia God, and it is simple to make, and the soldiers are quick to get started. Even if the most elite Iron Harrier in Western Xia came, everyone threw him five or six throwing spears, and the Iron Harrier would have to become a dead harrier. ”

Fang Zhongyong was surprised: "Demao Gaojian! I really didn't know that Brother Demao was so familiar with the affairs of the military formation! ”

Yan Juhou waved his hand and said: "It's all from my brother-in-law Fu Yanguo, I just parroted my tongue, and I don't deserve everyone's praise." Although Fuyanguo was born as a Jinshi, he is good at talking about military affairs, so I have the opportunity to introduce you to you! He pointed to the "brain-dead" wild boar and said: "How to cook this pickled thing, I have to worry about Wenyuan." As for us, the gentleman cooks far away, just sit and wait to eat. ”

After eating some wild game, everyone was full of wine and food, and boarded the boat separately. Before leaving, the little maid cat slave ran over and said, "My young lady said, thank you for the gift, she will have a big gift for you in the future." Fang Gongzi, what kind of gift did you give to Miss? ”

Fang Zhongyong just smiled and said in his heart: My gift is myself!
