Chapter 110: HB Vinegar Parsley

Ye Wen came to Wei Zheng's mansion and saw that Wei Zheng's mansion was much simpler than other mansions, far less atmospheric than the mansion of the eldest grandson Wuji, and not as magnificent as Li Xiaogong's mansion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

It is said that Li Er rewarded Wei Zheng with tens of thousands of wealth, but when Wei Zheng was dying, his family had no sleep, and his huge fortune was unknown.

Ye Wen thought that according to Wei Zheng's style, he shouldn't be able to build a mansion, but he didn't expect to invite Ye Wen as well.

"In Xia Yewen, Doctor Ye, I was invited by Duke Wei to come, please take the trouble to pass me through." Ye Wen tidied up his clothes and stepped forward to say to the family.

"Doctor Ye, please, the head of the family has already informed the villain and asked the villain to wait for Doctor Ye here." That family had already gotten the news and respectfully welcomed Ye Wen in.

After a while, a man in his fifties came out, seeing that he was thin and had a melon seed face, which was more suitable for Li Er according to Wei Zheng's appearance and characteristics, giving him the nickname of "sheep-nosed gong".

"Doctor Ye is here, and the old man is not welcome." Then Wei Zheng said to Ye Wen.

"Meet Duke Wei, Duke Wei's invitation, I dare not come." Ye Wen said with a sigh.

"Doctor Ye, please come into the house for a while." Wei Zheng invited Ye Wen into the house.

"Gong Wei, please." Ye Wen replied politely.

When I entered the house, I was sitting next to Wei Zheng, the room was simple, the table and mat looked old, and I didn't see Wei Zheng's wife and son.

Ye Wen chatted with Wei Zheng for a while, and saw a man about twenty years old walk in, the man was somewhat similar to Wei Zheng, he should be Wei Zheng's son, but I don't know how many sons Wei Zheng has.

I saw the man come up to Wei Zheng and said, "Meet my father." ”

"My son, please, this is Doctor Ye," Wei Zheng introduced Ye Wendao.

"This is my dog, and I ask Dr. Ye to teach him more in the future, and I haven't seen Dr. Ye yet." Wei Zheng said to Ye Wen again.

Ye Wen was also sweating when he heard it, although Ye Wen's real age was older, he was not much older than Wei Shuyu, but this was just a polite thing Wei Zheng said.

"Shuyu has seen Dr. Ye, and has heard of Dr. Ye for a long time, and when I see him today, I am fortunate to have three lives." The man listened to his father's words and visited Ye Wen again. It turned out that this man was Wei Zheng's eldest son, that is, Wei Zheng's eldest son Wei Shuyu, who was later canceled by Li Er's marriage contract to Princess Hengshan (later named Princess Xincheng).

"Where, Wei Dalang is going to laugh." Ye Wen got up and said politely, in fact, Ye Wen had already gotten up as early as when Wei Zheng just spoke, after all, people were visiting him, he was still sitting there, he was rude, he was still kneeling in front of others, although he was separated by a table, but this rude and disadvantaged move, Ye Wen didn't do it.

Wei Shuyu was sitting next to Ye Wen, and after some exchanges, Ye Wen also knew that the reason why Wei Zheng was able to invite Ye Wen was that Li Er rewarded Wei Zheng with a lot of money, and specially sent someone to ask Wei Zheng to invite Ye Wen to build a mansion.

This Wei Zheng had seen the magic of Ye Wen's mansion, and secondly, he couldn't disobey Li Er's will, so he had to obey Li Er's wishes.

Later, after talking about the topic, Ye Wen handed Wei Zheng the plan that Xiaokong had done well, there were cheaper plans on it, and there were also slightly more expensive ones, it depended on how Wei Zheng chosen.

Wei Zheng was choosing a plan above, and Wei Shuyu was very curious below, but because of etiquette, it was not easy to run to his father's side.

After Ye Wen went through a few times, he naturally calmed down a lot, and the old god waited for Wei Zheng to choose a plan below, but he didn't see Wei Zheng's wife choosing a plan with Wei Zheng.

It is said that Wei Zheng's wife Pei is a good woman who is honest and thrifty, a well-known virtuous helper in history, without the slightest arrogance and lasciviousness, very thrifty and hardworking, and poor and poor.

Moreover, Wei Zheng's wife came from the Hedong Pei family, and the Hedong Pei family was a famous family in the history of Chinese feudal society. In the early Tang Dynasty, although the family had declined, the ministers of the court were vying to marry the scholars, and Wei Zheng was no exception.

For this reason, Li Er ordered Gao Shilian, the secretary of the ministry, Wei Ting, the imperial historian, the text of the Zhongshu Shilang Cen, and the Ministry of Rites Linghu Dedi to be responsible for the revision, so as to "publish the correct surname" and write the book "Clan Chronicles", in order to improve the status of the Li royal family, support the landlords of the Shu clan, suppress the power of the old Shi clan, and strengthen the imperial power.

"Doctor Ye?" Just when Ye Wen was distracted, Wei Zheng had already selected a plan.

"Huh?" Wei Shuyu on the side pushed Ye Wen, and Ye Wen came to his senses.

"The old man has already chosen, and the architectural end of Dr. Ye's family is amazing." Wei Zheng handed the phone to Ye Wen, and praised Ye Wen by the way.

"It's just showing off the family's skills, and it's not on the stage." Faced with the praise of a famous prime minister in history, Ye Wen was not proud, but said more modestly.

"Doctor Ye is polite."

Then when night fell, Wei Zheng invited Ye Wen to have a dinner here, and Ye Wen did not object, he couldn't have an empty stomach.

During the banquet, Wei Zheng's dinner was simpler than other people's homes, but there were also stir-fried dishes brought by Ye Wen in advance, and it seemed that this stir-fried dishes conquered the stomachs of the Tang people. And Ye Wen was also fortunate to taste Wei Zheng's famous dish "HB vinegar celery".

This "HB vinegar celery" is mainly water cress, but Wei Zheng's vinegar celery is also mixed with dry celery that was introduced from the Western Regions not long ago, this kind of dish is thicker, more tender, and has a unique flavor. The old vinegar used is also brewed with the Wei family's secret recipe.

Moreover, there is a text about Wei Zheng and Vinegar Qin in the Tang Dynasty notebook "Dragon City Record", Wei Zheng likes to give opinions in the court, and often makes the emperor unable to step down. One day, Li Er smiled and said to the ministers: "That goat's nose is straight all day long, I don't know if there is anything that can make him happy?" The courtiers beside Li Er replied, "Wei Zheng likes to eat vinegar celery." The next day, Li Er gave a feast, and among the food he was rewarded was three cups of vinegar celery. When Wei Zheng saw it, his index finger moved, and before the meal was finished, the tableware containing the dishes bottomed out. Li Er said: "Look at you, you said that you don't have any hobbies, but now I finally see it." Wei Zheng, who was exposed, replied to Li Er: "The emperor likes inaction (not extravagance), and the courtiers naturally dare not have any preferences. I'm just going to take this bite (vinegar parsley). Li Shimin sighed for a long time.

This Wei Zheng likes to eat pickled and sour celery, which has a lot to do with his background. The ancestral home of the Wei family is a famous local scholar. Before the Tang Dynasty, there was a five-hundred-year chaos in the Central Plains, and the Shijia clans from all over the country gathered villagers from generation to generation to defend the city for self-protection, and the clan had a secret method of storing and making shelf-stable food, and the pickled celery was also a product of that era.

Finally, after dinner and collecting the money, Ye Wen bought the cheaper plan selected by Wei Zheng, and then said goodbye and left.
