Chapter 13: Damn Loyalty
Merchants pursue profit, whether in the Tang Dynasty or in later generations, this is a wise saying, the only difference is that it is everyone who pursues profit in later generations, and it seems that only merchants seek profit in the Tang Dynasty......
At least in the Tang Dynasty, most of the poor people were more concerned about how much income they could earn through hard work, and then arranged their lives according to the funds at hand, and the merchants were despicable villains who were known as flies and dogs.
A few days is not enough time for Jia Yi's cognition to change much, at least he doesn't know what the overall moral character of the broad masses of people in the Tang Dynasty is like when he borrows into the restaurant all day, but when he knocks on the back door of the Laifu Inn and reports his origin, he is greeted by a gloomy face that can drip water.
"You're the shopkeeper?" Jia Yi looked at the middle-aged man standing in the door and looked at him coldly, and suddenly had a very bad feeling, could it be that this is the shopkeeper of the inn? Otherwise, when he heard that he was from the Sifang Restaurant, his face turned black to the bottom of the pot.
Jia Er also saw that something was unusual, he was still standing by Jia Yi's side just now, and after the middle-aged man changed his face, he had already rushed behind Jia Yi.
The middle-aged man ignored Jia Yi's question very impolitely, and in order to save spit, he only gave him a loud word.
"Get out."
"Hey, how can you curse?" Jia Yi is gone, isn't it just to come and hang out, you are not welcome to say it directly, how to scold people!
"Scold you, I'll let the dog bite you." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he opened the back door with both hands, turned his head and yelled behind him: "Little Liuzi, let the dog go." ”
"Okay, Chef."
"Woo Woo ......"
Seeing the big black dog rushing over from inside the door, Jia Yi knew that the plan to dig people was completely aborted, so he pulled Jia Er to turn his head and run.
In the evening, Duqu County was so quiet and peaceful, the vendors who came out of the stall began to pack up their things, and the guys who opened the shop began to close the door, just when everyone was silently preparing to welcome the arrival of the night, a violent dog barking was like a drop of water in the boiling oil, so that Duqu County ushered in the second lively **.
The problem of Chinese people watching the excitement has been passed down for thousands of years, and the Tang Dynasty is no exception, everyone watched Jia Yi and Jia Er running in front, and a black dog chasing behind, and no one said anything to help.
Looking at the lively crowd on both sides of the street, Jia Yi cursed in a low voice and ran towards the back door of the Sifang restaurant at a faster speed.
This black dog is also dead-eyed, chasing the two of them for a few hundred meters, it is endless, it is behind Jia Yi and Jia Er, and chased until the back door of the Sifang restaurant, just when Jia Yi stopped his body and opened the door, the black dog pounced on Jia Er's trouser leg and bit it fiercely.
The sudden attack made Jia Er's little face turn pale suddenly, and he trembled and let the black dog bite his trouser leg and make a "whine......" sound, but he was too frightened to make any sound.
Jia Yi was furious, kicked the black dog in the stomach, kicked it out four or five meters, and screamed "...... screaming......
Jia Erdon't be frightened, after seeing the black dog kicked away by Jia Yi, he seemed to want to cry, and hugged Jia Yi and cried loudly, like a little girl who had been wronged a lot. Also as a house slave of the Lin family, Jia Yi feels that Jia Er is closest to him, and now Jia Er is being bullied by a dog, and it is naturally his duty to help the younger brother avenge him, so he picked up a stick with a thick arm and walked towards the black dog that was wilting on the ground......
Jia Er seems to have never been so frightened, even if he was sold into slavery at the beginning, everything was obviously smooth, he didn't suffer much at all, he had already come to the Lin family, but this time he was frightened by the black dog, no matter where Jia Yi went, his small hands grabbed Jia Yi's sleeves, let the tears slide down his face, let Jia Yi's various comforts, and let the snot flow into his mouth......
"Come to Xiaoer, a manly man, you can't always shed tears, eat this dog meat first." Jia Yi comforted Jia Er softly, and at the same time put the largest piece of dog meat in the casserole into the bowl in front of Jia Er.
That's right, since this black dog is so ignorant, then he will go back, and it happens that he is a little tired from working in the past two days, so he should be able to make up for himself.
Food is always the best medicine to treat pain, smelling the fragrant dog meat, Jia Er seemed to forget the scene that scared him just now, and he didn't use chopsticks, he directly grabbed the dog meat with his hands and opened his mouth to eat it.
"Yes, eat more, remember, if anyone beats you in the future, you will call me back, if anyone bites you, you will bite me back, and you must not suffer."
Jia Yi also picked up a piece of dog meat and ate it in a big gulp.
When the two of them were feasting, the sky gradually darkened, and Lin Ruyu, who had been away for a long time, returned again, when she walked in the door and saw that the two people were eating and drinking, she was suddenly angry, and there were several people in the family waiting for you to eat, but you ate first.
"Jia Yi, what are you eating? Why is it so fragrant. Before he could say the words of questioning, he was attracted by the thick fragrance in the casserole, stared at the meat in the casserole, and swallowed his saliva fiercely.
"Dog meat casserole, try it."
"Hmm."
The women of the Tang Dynasty were not as cute as later generations, and when they saw the cute puppy, they couldn't walk, and they even ate the dog meat casserole, Lin Ruyu was very ladylike to pull out a piece of meat from the casserole with chopsticks, and took it out to dry, so she ate it in small bites.
Lin Ruyu, who was completely attracted by the food, seemed to have forgotten the purpose of her coming here, until all the dog meat in the casserole was eaten by the three of them, and Lin Ruyu exclaimed: "It's bad, Daddy, they are still waiting for us to go back to cook and eat." ”
Jia Yi rolled his eyes at Lin Ruyu, rubbed his slightly bulging belly, and said in his heart, "Why don't you wait until tomorrow night to talk about this." ”
"Let's go, go back cooking." There was still some cooking oil that I took to the Lin family last time, so I don't need to bring it today, thinking back to the ingredients in the Lin family's kitchen, Jia Yi quickly packed up a little thing, and walked towards the Lin Mansion with Lin Ruyu and Jia Er.
"Do you kid want to starve to death?"
As soon as he entered the door, Sun Simiao blew his beard and stared at Jia Yi with a long pause.
"Look at what you said, the kid just doesn't eat, and he can't starve you, I thought they would prepare food for you, but I didn't expect it, hehe, I'm sorry, I'll do it now."
As soon as Jia finished speaking, he went into the kitchen with the ingredients in his arms.
The pork in the restaurant is overflowing, in order to prevent them from spoiling, they urgently need to be consumed now, so, tonight, Jia Yi is going to make a whole pig feast, braised pork is indispensable, sweet and sour tenderloin is also on a plate, and then braised pork ribs, just the meat is too greasy, and then two cold side dishes, and a few scallion pancakes on the feet, when everyone is impatient to wait, the meal is finally on the table.
The Tang Dynasty ate at separate tables, but Jia Yi didn't care about those, only one plate of each dish, and then set up a door panel, one wooden pier for one person, and finished the work around a table.
Meiyu and Baoyu were already hungry, seeing the food served, just smelling the tempting fragrance made people's appetite move, and they couldn't care about any etiquette anymore, and they ate the chopsticks during the holiday, and the old man Lin just wanted to taste the taste of braised pork, and a pair of chopsticks pressed his chopsticks directly on the door panel.
"Your body is not suitable for eating greasy, so let's eat more light."
Sun Simiao's words are tantamount to a holy decree here, Lin Ruyu, who was sitting next to Old Man Lin, quickly sandwiched a bowl full of cold dishes for Old Man Lin, and finally put a scallion pancake.
"You kid has a good and bad heart, you know that Lao Dao is a monk, but you still cook so many meat dishes, and you sincerely don't let Lao Dao eat well, right?" Sun Simiao is also very fond of the food on the table, but as a monk, he just swaggered and gulped meat, which was a little inappropriate, and he couldn't eat it if he wanted to, so he suddenly held his stomach and vented it on Jia Yi's body.
"Sun Shenxian's words are wrong, as the so-called wine and meat pass through the intestines, Sanqing stays in his heart, as long as he asks with one heart, it doesn't hurt to eat some wine and meat."
"Okay, a good wine and meat through the intestines, Sanqing left in his heart, just at you, the old Taoist asked sincerely, it's okay to eat some meat dishes, haha......" laughed three times, and the chopsticks began to flash quickly in the plate.
Jia Yi couldn't say anything about Sun Simiao's pretending garlic, he could only give deep contempt.
A few dishes were eaten by several people, and the clear soup after the meal was naturally indispensable, and a bowl of egg flower rape soup for one person was just to clear the greasy stomach.
"Boy, the way you cook is unheard of by the old Tao, I don't know how to make it."
It seems that Lao Sun is still addicted to eating, and he must want to make a few dishes to taste when he is okay in the future, Jia Yi once again gave deep contempt, but explained them to him one by one with a rich smile on his face.
After eating, everyone went back to their rooms, Jia Er was arranged by Lin Ruyu in a side room, and Jia Yi sat in the courtyard looking at the stars in the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.
"What are you looking at?" Lin Ruyu didn't know when she appeared next to Jia Yi, knowing that she and Jia Yi already had a marriage contract, but she was still very bold to maintain close contact with Jia Yi, it seems that she also recognized Jia Yi in her heart.
"It's nothing, by the way, is the master's illness better?"
"Don't cough so much, this Taoist doctor you found is really a god, it's just a pair of medicines, and it has an effect, and it won't take long to heal."
Jia Yixin said, there can be mistakes, this is the king of medicine, the miracle doctor of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, specializing in the treatment of incurable diseases, and curing your father's illness is not a matter of being caught.
"That's good."
