Chapter 111: Gongsun Sheng
Yu Liyan wanted to drink, because there was no way to sleep with Qin Mu, she was worried, she was so worried, where did she come from if she didn't sleep together?
Qin Mu didn't come back, and she couldn't enter the barracks, she just wanted to borrow wine to drown her sorrows. In fact, it's not purely to pour sorrow, Wuliangye is so delicious, don't worry about her greed. It's just that there is no Wuliangye anymore.
At the last guard reunion dinner, he drank all the Wuliangye, and Yu Liyan didn't want to drink it.
Even if there is, it won't be her turn to drink, and if there is Zhe Meifeng, she would have stolen it all a long time ago.
Zhe Meifeng also wants to drink, if it was in the past, she would have to go back to Bianliang, but now she is reluctant to leave, and she is about to hit Liangshan, and she must mix in this excitement. I wanted to drink again if I didn't leave, so I thought of the widow's tavern.
Going alone, it doesn't seem like a word, pulling my sister to go, don't even think about it. Zhe Meiluan is now fully engaged in Qin Mu's civil affairs work, in fact, the entire Wujiazhuang has been separated from the jurisdiction of the Great Song Dynasty and completely included in the track of the new era.
All the big and small things, the private factories, are all gathered into the hands of Zhe Meiluan, and she is very busy every day.
It turned out that Zhe Meiluan didn't know that it was so difficult to manage a village, but now she finally realized it. The key is that Wujiazhuang has adopted a new management model, and if it follows the old method of the Great Song Dynasty, it will be fine. You don't have to worry about anything, you love to die, you just have to pay your taxes.
Now how can she have free time to accompany her sister to drink, if she finds that Meifeng is so out of tune, Meiluan will be considered a good sister if she doesn't beat her.
Zhe Meifeng couldn't pull Jia Hongxian with her, and those ladies were also soaked in the barracks, studying with Qin Mu, and they were busy every day. So I picked and chosen, and there was only a stupid princess. This princess is silly, but she can drink very well. Kind of a good drinking buddy.
Yu Liyan was dragged to the widow's tavern by Zhe Meifeng. She felt that this sign was really unlucky, the widow's tavern, she was not a widow. But it's still very tempting to drink, so let's talk about it without caring so much, let's take two sips.
Li Xiao'e's wine was transported from Bianliang, and naturally there was no way to compare it with Wuliangye, Yu Liyan and Zhe Meifeng both frowned.
"Shopkeeper," Zhi Meifeng called Li Xiao'e: "Do you have any better wine at home, this is too bad." ”
In fact, the wine in the widow's tavern is not bad, and it is already at the upper middle level in Bianliang. There are many factories in Wujiazhuang and high wages, which means that the villagers, or workers, have a lot of cash in their hands. Li Xiao'e is not a woman who can't do business, and the wine she buys is worthy of the current economic level of Wujiazhuang.
It's just that no matter how good the wine in Bianliang is, it can't be compared with Wuliangye.
Once the sea was difficult to water, except that Wushan is not a cloud, there are five grains and liquids, and Zhe Meifeng can't drink the wine of this time and space.
"Fold the lady," Li Xiao'e hurriedly laughed and said: "Don't you dare to deceive the little lady, this is really a good wine in the capital, but the slave has not mixed a drop of water." ”
Zhe Meiluan and Zhe Meifeng look the same, Li Xiao'e received the pension from Zhe Meiluan, she is very grateful and respects Zhe Meiluan, so even Zhe Meifeng is respected. She didn't know which lady was coming.
"Okay. I'll just order it, you make two good dishes, you want to stir-fry, don't fool me. "It's good to have two good dishes.
Li Xiao'e's cooking skills are good, and it can even be said that she is a big Song top. Nothing else, because she is in Wujiazhuang!
The Guards learned to stir-fry from Qin Mu, and sometimes the soldiers would come to the Widow's Tavern for recreation, and after coming and going, Li Xiao'e learned to stir-fry from the Guards Regiment.
Stir-frying, not high-tech, not much difficult to learn. Stir-frying to such a height as Qin Mu requires study and honing, but it is not difficult to fry the level of a street restaurant in the future.
Li Xiao'e quickly learned to stir-fry, and even practiced a few specialty dishes.
In particular, the squirrel fish is a signature dish of the widow's tavern.
There was not much time, and a few stir-fried dishes were placed in front of Zhe Meifeng and Yu Liyan.
"Girl, eat, remember to spit out. If I don't stab you to death, my brother-in-law won't be able to spare me. "Zhe Meifeng won't talk well, obviously she cares about Yu Liyan, and she also said that she has a gun and a stick.
"Sister, you can't stab me to death." Yu Liyan stared at a pair of eyes and said innocently: "Qin Mu has fed me fish, I will eat fish." ”
Fold Mei Feng was so angry that she almost kicked Yu Liyan downstairs. What kind of words are these, are they human words? But she is a little fool, no matter what she says, she can be regarded as a normal person, and she can't be angry with a little fool.
While sulking, I drank at the same time. At this time, I heard someone talking in the corner.
"Shopkeeper, bring me some of that too."
Li Xiao'e hurriedly ran over: "Dao Chief, do you want those dishes too?" ”
"Yes, the troublesome shopkeeper, serve me the same food."
"Dao Chief, wait a minute, slave will do it." Li Xiao'e hurriedly ordered to go down. In addition to herself, there are also her two daughters, who are now good at cooking.
Zhi Meifeng turned her head and glanced at it, there was a person sitting alone at the table, a Taoist priest.
Today's Wujiazhuang is no longer the original small village, because there are match factories, as well as paper factories and cigarette factories that come one after another, and the staff members have moved their fruit factories all here, resulting in the continuous flow of people to buy goods and transport materials, and the Wujiazhuang wharf is bustling with people from morning to night.
It is not surprising that a Taoist priest appeared.
Zhe Meifeng didn't pay much attention to it, it was important to drink and eat. Although this wine is poor, the food is not bad, how can I have my brother-in-law's five or six points of skills, it is better to be fresh, eat it while it is hot. If you don't eat it again, it will all be eaten by the stupid princess alone.
The Taoist priest had a plate of fruit and a pot of wine in front of him, and he was pouring himself a drink. The diet of the Great Song Dynasty is still different from that of later generations, and many things can be drunk, such as using various kinds of dried fruits to drink, which is too rare in later generations, but it is normal here.
Not long after he went to the restaurant, according to the practice of the past, he ordered fruit with wine, but he didn't expect to see the two ladies of Zhemei Feng and Yu Liyan next, and ordered four or five steaming dishes, all of which he had never heard of, never seen, and didn't even know his name, so he was moved.
No, I have to taste it. He was surprised that Wujiazhuang had a tavern, and it was a miracle that there were brand new dishes in the tavern. You must know that Bianliang does not have such a good dish.
This person is one of the generals in Liangshan, Sun Sheng, the Duke of Yunlong.
Song Jiang finally found him. As soon as he returned to Liangshan, Gongsun Sheng heard Song Jiang's complaints. Speaking of the two beatings on Wujiazhuang, especially Lei Heng and Zhang Qingquan died in Wujiazhuang, and none of the two hundred people ran away.
And Wujiazhuang produces good things, what matches, cigarettes, watches, motorcycles, are all from Wujiazhuang.
Gongsun Sheng is a Taoist priest, and on Liangshan, he is the most learned and knowledgeable person. Compared with him, the military advisor Wu Yong is too far behind.
Wu Yong is a teaching gentleman, he knows the Four Books and Five Classics, and he also knows some of the romance books, but Wu Yong does not have real knowledge.
Gongsun Sheng is otherwise, this time and space Taoist temple and temple are the real collection of books, monks and Taoists, second only to the existence of literati. They are learned, and in terms of miscellaneous learning, monks and Taoists are far superior to the literati.
Gongsun Sheng is such a miscellaneous family. There is a lot of knowledge in the belly, and there is a lot of knowledge. But he didn't know matches, cigarettes, watches, motorcycles. And I can't think of how none of the two hundred people ran away.
This is not in line with the scientific and technological level of the Great Song Dynasty - of course, he will not use the word technological level.
So Gongsun Sheng decided to come and see it in person, and he had a very good working attitude. Without investigation, there is no voice.
When he came to Wujiazhuang and boarded the widow's tavern, he was shocked by the stir-fried food first.
This taste, absolutely! Delicious!
Nothing else, eat and drink first. So Gongsun Sheng began to enjoy it with taste.
While eating, he recruited the shopkeeper.
"The shopkeeper, the poor road is born in the month, forgive me for taking the liberty of coming to your store today, looking at this signboard is very interesting, I don't know ......"
"This signboard made the Taoist chief smile. The slave is the widow, and the official died. ”
"Oh, I see, the poor way is presumptuous, presumptuous. Mourning, mourning. ”
"The Taoist is too polite. The dead ghost left the slave and the child and left, but fortunately, there was a living bodhisattva like the Broken Lady who gave the slave a pension, or the slave would not have been able to open this tavern. ”
What is a pension? Gongsun Sheng was a little confused. Money is certain, but the word pension is too rare. He couldn't figure it out for a moment.
"Who is this girl?"
"This ......" Li Xiao'e couldn't say. Just now she praised Zhe Meiluan, firstly, she was really grateful, and secondly, Zhe Meifeng was sitting on the table next to her, she was tantamount to preaching good deeds for Zhe Niangzi.
But the old Taoist wants to ask the lady about the specific things, and Li Xiao'e will not say it
Not to mention that Zhe Meifeng was sitting next to her, even if she was not there, Li Xiao'e would not tell outsiders about Zhe Meiluan's situation.
Everything in Wujiazhuang is getting better and better now, and her life is much more nourishing than when a man was alive, how can she take the liberty to talk nonsense. How can anyone who runs a restaurant be stupid.
Seeing this, Gongsun Sheng immediately diverted the topic: "Shopkeeper, you see, although I am an outsider, I also have to eat the grains of the world, and there is naturally a demand for this money." I heard that there were matches and cigarettes in Wujiazhuang, but I didn't know where to get them. ”
This is the reason that Gongsun Sheng has thought of a long time ago. Reasonable, no one can fault it.
"Matches, it's better to say. The match factory is an outsider, he often patronizes the small shop, if the Taoist chief does not ask much, the slave family can still say a word or two. ”
Qin Mu was generous, and the wires were pulled all the way to the match factory outside the staff, so the staff outside also began to work in three shifts, and the output of matches suddenly increased greatly. This gave Li Xiao'e a little confidence, and it didn't seem so difficult to get hundreds of boxes of matches. Ren Wai always comes to dinner, and he will give her more or less face.
"What about cigarettes?"
"Not with this." Li Xiao'e decisively refused. She knew that the matches were for outsiders, and she might be able to open her mouth, but the cigarettes were folded, and the owner of the house was sitting next to her, so how dare she talk nonsense.
"Such a good thing, oops, really, who in the world doesn't like it, and they can't even help it."
"But what can I say, Dao Chief," Li Xiao'e said indignantly: "So many good things were all made by Qin officials after they came, but there are bandits who have no conscience, who came to our Wujiazhuang, killed people and set fires, and even the factory outside the staff was almost demolished." This gang of thieves who should get into the oil pot, don't let the slave encounter it, if you meet the slave, you have to cut him a few times. ”
The squirrel osmanthus fish is fried, and Li Xiao'e really wants to make a fried bandit.
Gongsun Sheng's rare face was not red. This is all the result of his cultivation over the years, and no matter what others say, he should not be able to hear it.
Liangshan's misdeeds didn't start from Wujiazhuang, how could the bandits not rob their homes? Carrying the old woman across the street, can that be what bandits should do?
"Bandits are really hateful!" Gongsun Sheng followed Li Xiao'e's tone and pretended to be angry.
"It's just that it's too lacking in morality, fortunately there is a Guards Regiment, they won't be able to end up if they come again, and they were all killed by the Guards Regiment. Hmph, the slave wants to see, there is a guard regiment, and there are still bandits who dare to come to our Wujiazhuang to find death. ”
"This Guards Regiment is in good hands."
"Isn't it?" As soon as Li Xiao'e's chatterbox was opened, it was endless, and she praised the Guards Regiment all over again. Don't say whether the Guards Regiment is powerful or not, let's just say that this cooking skill is taught to her by the Guards Regiment. Without the Guards, there would be no such widow's restaurant.
"They're so good at cooking, so isn't it even worse at fighting?" Gongsun Sheng guided Li Xiao'e to say more.
"Oh, the Guards are the best in the world." Li Xiao'e didn't actually know how powerful the Guards Regiment was, but she naturally thought that the Guards Regiment was the most powerful. Cooking is so good, can you not be good at fighting? Didn't the bandits all be killed?
Zhe Meifeng listened to Li Xiao'e praise her sister, her brother-in-law, and the Guards Regiment, and her heart was beautiful.
But Yu Liyan was a little puzzled. She is different from Zhe Meifeng. Although both of them are families, one is the daughter of the Emperor of the Soil, and the other is the daughter of the True Emperor, but there is no intrigue, there are two brothers in this generation, there are few people, there is no competition, and the whole family is very harmonious.
And Zhe Meifeng has Zhe Meiluan to take care of, and she doesn't have so many eyes, and more often she does things with her will.
Yu Liyan is not like this at all. Since the founding of the Liao State, the high-level has been a history of struggle, and the Yelu family and the Xiao family have been entangled and fighting endlessly. She grew up in such an environment since she was a child, and she has too many eyes.
This Taoist's words made Yu Liyan instinctively feel that something was wrong. It's not like doing business, it's like getting to the bottom of it. He has been teasing Li Xiao'e.
This made Yu Liyan vigilant. It's just that she's still playing dumb now, and even if she understands it, she can't say it.
If she dares to mention it to Zhe Meifeng, then don't talk about it for a long time, let's talk about you first.
You're better than a monkey, and you're pretending to be stupid, so I'm going to teach you a lesson first, and ask why you arrested my brother-in-law.
For the first time, Yu Liyan found that pretending to be stupid also had troubles, not all of which was taking advantage.
What can I do about this, how can I make Qin Mu or Zhe Meifeng realize that this old way is not normal?
