"I've eaten at this one. When I walked to the Suzaku Gate, Yuan Niang looked at a stall for a long time, and suddenly said in surprise: "My father sent someone to buy it, and I remember that his crystal corner is very delicious."www.biquge.info ”

Liu Yong turned his head to look at it when he heard this, only to see the words "Cao Family Eats" written on it.

"I heard that the official family also sent someone from Ouchi to buy his family's things, so naturally it is not far off." Liu Yong said casually.

Tokyo's night markets have a few unique skills, and even Ouchi's imperial chef who cooks for the official family can't compare. Under the prestige for a long time, the story that Ouchi sent someone to buy it spread out, and as for the authenticity, it is naturally unknown.

"Shopkeeper, I want this, this, this, and this." After a while, Yuan Niang pointed to the menu and a few semi-finished products on the table and reported several side dishes.

"Okay, the two guest officers, please sit inside first, just wait a while." The shopkeeper was not surprised at all by the two young customers in front of him, and after quickly remembering it, he called the guy to lead Liu Yong and the two to sit in the back.

"You order so much, we can't finish it." Liu Yong reminded in a low voice.

"What's wrong if you can't finish eating? Miss was delighted. Yuan Niang was rubbing her little hands, and was on her head, when she was interrupted by Liu Yong and gave him a blank look, and then said questioningly: "Are you not enough money?" Don't use your money, Miss Ben has it. ”

"How so!" Liu Yong replied immediately, then took out his purse, patted his chest and said, "So much is a lot of money, you can eat as much as you like in the night market, it's enough!" ”

"Two guest officers, your dishes are here~" After a while, a guy dragged many plates like a juggler, and introduced the name of the dish every time he served a dish.

Stir-fried lamb, ginger soy sauce, smeared dirt, red silk, white intestines, preserved fish, frozen fish head, hemp curd chicken skin, sesame drink fine powder, batch cut sheep's head, spicy feet......

After a while, the guy served a whole table of dishes, and after two bowls of honey pots were delivered, the man said slowly, and went to the next table to work.

At most, the surrounding diners just glanced at this side, and then they pulled their eyes back and continued to discuss their "military affairs".

"It is said that a few days ago, it rained heavily in Tokyo, which caused the water of the Cai River to rise, and some low-lying alleys in the southeast of the city were flooded. This morning, my brother, who was on an errand in Hebei, came back and said that Xingzhou had been flooded, and hundreds of houses had collapsed in more than half a zhang of water. A diner on the side crossed Erlang's legs and bare arms, picked up a handful of boiled edamame from the plate and put it in his mouth without peeling it, and said as he ate.

"What is this? Xingzhou has not been flooded in the past few years? Another diner said.

"Your news is not accurate, Xingzhou reported that hundreds of houses were washed away by the torrential rain, but in fact there were only 100 houses at most...... I don't know how much money I have to cheat out of the treasury, saying that it is disaster relief, which time is it not greedy? Another big man at the same table raised his head and drank a bowl of wine, and said dizzily after seeing the bottom.

"I heard that since the beginning of the summer, Queen Wang's health has not been very good, it is said that she has changed several imperial doctors, but they have not improved, and the official family has cured the sins of several imperial doctors for this." A diner at the other table was munching on pork ears from the salad, ignoring the 'royal secrets' he was talking about.

"I'll go, this news is enough, where did you know?" Several people at the same table were obviously attracted by the news, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask, and even the people at the next table pricked up their ears to listen.

"Remember, I told you before that I had a relative who worked at the Hanlin Medical Bureau, and he told me secretly. In the past few days, the medical officials have been in a panic, lest they be arrested by the officials to treat the queen. The person who spoke earlier revealed energetically.

"What kind of disease does the queen have then?" Someone on the side immediately asked.

"I don't know this, my relative is also a handyman, so I know a rough idea, and I can't do anything about it." The man shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.

"Hey, you can't make it up, I don't even know what the disease is. I said how come we don't have any news. Seeing this, the diners on the side immediately lost half of their interest and said.

"How could it be! Am I that kind of person...... However, although I don't know what kind of illness the queen has is, according to reliable sources, the official family may go to the people to seek medical treatment, and those who can cure the queen's illness will no longer have a problem entering the medical bureau, and even the children and nephews can be shadowed by the official body. ”

"Real Fake ......"

"What ...... I lie to you?"

……

……

While the diners on the side were discussing the "important affairs of the military state", Liu Yong and Yuan Niang were concentrating on solving the food in front of them.

"Oh, these pork or something, you eat it." Yuan Niang picked up a piece of marinated pork knuckle from a plate, looked at it for a long time, then put it in front of her nose and sniffed it carefully, then put down the chopsticks and pushed the whole plate to Liu Yong.

"What do you want if you don't eat it?" Liu Yong looked at the pork knuckle that occupied a large plate and asked Yuanniang.

"At home, my father never allowed the cook to make these things, so I ordered them to take a look." After that, Yuan Niang used chopsticks to add a piece of marinated mutton liver and looked at it.

Before the Song Dynasty, whether it was the common people or the princes and nobles, the most common meat was mutton, chickens, ducks and geese, or dog meat. You don't see the Marquis of Wuyang in the early Han Dynasty, Fan Xu, who followed Han Gaozu and raised troops before he was a dog meat seller.

As for beef, since cattle were used in agricultural production on a large scale, there have been clear regulations prohibiting the slaughter of cultivated cattle in successive dynasties. Perhaps this ban is not too difficult for dignitaries, but for the majority of ordinary people, it is difficult to have the opportunity to eat beef once in a lifetime.

As for pork, few people would eat it before the Emperor and Song Dynasty, and even few people were in captivity. At that time, because the cooking skills were not up to the mark, pork was easy to eat and spoiled, and over time people thought that pork was unclean. It is said that to this day, there is a country in the west that refuses to eat pork with a big beard and a tightly wrapped body.

After the Emperor and Song Dynasty, many cooking techniques such as stir-frying gradually became popular, and various ways to eat pork gradually spread, but it was only circulated among the common people, and the royal relatives still refused to be contaminated. Just like Liu Yong's grandfather's restaurant, all kinds of pork bowls are unique in Tokyo, but few nobles go there, so for more than 100 years, although the business is booming, it finally stops at a foot shop.

Su Zizhan during the Shenzong and Zhezong dynasties also wrote a poem "Ode to Pork", which mentioned that "Huangzhou is good pork, and the price is as cheap as soil." The noble man refuses to eat, and the poor man does not understand how to cook. This is how the world thinks of pork today.

"After a while, let's go to the state bridge to play." Yuan Niang wiped the corners of her mouth, looked at Liu Yong and said.

Liu Yong looked at the moon that had risen to the old high, and was thinking about how to explain to his mother why he came home so late for a while, but after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't think of a lie that could make up the words, and asked Yuanniang with a little melancholy on his face: "It's been dark for half an hour, is it really okay if you don't go back?" ”

"Don't be afraid, they won't know about my ......"
