Chapter 14: Lao Tzu Eats Here!!
"My lord, what shall we do now?" Liu Sihai asked on the side.
"What else can I do?" Wang Hengyue rubbed his nose and remembered the Zhao Xi and Zhao Yaosheng that Yu Lei said. I was already uncomfortable: "Yaosheng? This is very good, Dongliu, you lead the way, let's go to visit this Zhao Yaosheng! ”
Zhao Xi lives at the east gate of Rong County, Wang Hengyue didn't have a film, reported his name, asked the porter to go in to report, and wrapped a red envelope according to the custom, I didn't want the porter to see it, and said coldly:
"Team officer, my lord is honest and honest all his life, and he doesn't charge a penny, if those of us who are subordinates accept the money from the team officer, won't it ruin my lord's reputation? Let's ask the team officer to put it away. ”
As he spoke, he turned around and went in to report.
Wang Hengyue was stunned with the red envelope, he didn't want this Zhao Xi's family to be so tough!
After waiting there for a while, the porter came out, still ignoring it: "My master is not available today, please go back." ”
"Not available?" Wang Hengyue was about to turn around and leave, Liu Sihai said with a smile on the side: "Please go and report again, my family has just taken office today, and I specially came to visit Mr. Xiangsong." ”
"If you say you're not available, you're not available!" Jia Ding said coldly, and then spoke with disdain: "A small team officer, dare to call himself an adult?" ”
Originally, there was nothing, but this sentence suddenly aroused Wang Hengyue's anger, originally because he saw the same "new army" as Huazi, he was in a bad mood, this time he was said such a thing in front of a family member, how could he still endure it?
"Fuck!" Wang Hengyue glared and scolded; "Lao Tzu sincerely came to visit Zhao Xi today, you little family dare to talk to Lao Tzu like this? You go and tell Zhao Xi that you can see you today, and you can see you if you don't see it! Fuck, I can't see Zhao Xi, so I won't leave today! ”
I don't want the porter to be scared at all: "Do you want to be wild in the Zhao Mansion?" You Zhong Ying Zhong Taizun is here, and you have to be respectful, my master will not see if he says that he will not see it! ”
"Good, good!" Wang Hengyue laughed angrily: "It's very good, it's wonderful!" I want to see who can get whom! ”
As he spoke, he stopped at the gate, and Pete, Yang Fangyun, and Liu Sihai also stood on the side. The porter didn't care.
After standing for a while, Wang Hengyue's eyes rolled, and he actually laughed: "Are you hungry?" ”
"I'm hungry, I've been hungry for a long time!" Pete was the first to exclaim, "Hungry!" ”
"Eat when you're hungry, drink when you're thirsty!" Wang Hengyue took out a piece of loose silver and handed it to Liu Sihai: "Go, find a restaurant, get some food and drink for Lao Tzu, and bring it here to eat." Hot pot, yes, Sichuan hot pot is famous, Lao Tzu eats hot pot! ”
Liu Sihai was dumbfounded: "My lord, I really eat here!" ”
"Eat right here!" Wang Hengyue's answer was non-negotiable.
Liu Sihai was stunned for a long time: "My lord, why don't you change something else to eat, eating hot pot is not an adult." ”
"What? Eating hot pot humiliates identity? Wang Hengyue didn't understand what he meant.
It's no wonder that Wang Hengyue doesn't understand, it turns out that hot pot is indeed just eaten by some boatmen and "bangbangs" at this time.
The appearance of Sichuan hot pot was in the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty. The real birthplace is the Yangtze River, the millet beach of the wine city of Luzhou. There is only one crockpot in the cooking utensils, which is filled with water, and various vegetables are added, and then peppers and peppercorns are added to remove dampness. After the boatmen ate, the beauty was indescribable, and it spread in this way, ten to hundred, and spread in various wharves along the Yangtze River.
Later, it was spread to Yucheng, which was a waterway transportation artery at that time, which was much larger than Luzhou. This kind of food custom has been passed down, and after it was passed to Yucheng, there was a change. At that time, some coolies, that is, the bangbangs, saw this way of eating, so they went to the cattle slaughterhouse to pick up some discarded cattle offal and wash them in the Yangtze River, cut them into small pieces, and eat them with the boatmen, they all felt that it was very delicious, and they could fill their stomachs and ward off the cold. Later, some people simply used a basket, put some beef offal and side vegetables at one end, put a mud stove at the other end, and put a divided "ocean iron basin" on the stove, and a kind of numb, spicy, salty and fragrant marinade was boiling and tumbling in the basin, which was sold every day by the river, at the head of the bridge or in the streets and alleys. So these boatmen and coolies no longer make their own fires and cook, and each of them decided that they would eat hot until they were full, and it would not cost much money, which was economical, convenient, and could increase calories.
Because hot pot is still a thing that can't be eaten at this time, some people with some identities won't eat it even if they slander it, Wang Hengyue is from another era, so naturally he won't know that there are these allusions in it!
Waiting for Liu Sihai to explain, Wang Hengyue was unimpressed: "No matter, what is the difference between us and the boatmen and the bangbangs?" Go and call, call the hot pot stall to Lao Tzu here, and Lao Tzu will eat at the door of Zhao Xi's house! ”
"Yes, obedience!"
Since the team officer "adult" is like this, Liu Sihai doesn't think about anything anymore.
The porter saw the officer muttering to his subordinates there, and he didn't think they could make any noise, so he watched with cold eyes.
Who thought that after half an hour, he saw that Liu Sihai really attracted a hot pot seller, and the two baskets waved towards the gate of Zhao's mansion.
When the concierge saw it, how could this kind of "next work" thing be placed at the door of the celebrity? hurriedly opened his mouth to reprimand, but saw Wang Hengyue's eyes white:
"You listen to Lao Tzu, this Zhao Mansion Lao Tzu is not qualified to enter, but this road is not your Zhao family, where are people doing your! If you dare to drive away, Lao Tzu must make a fuss all over Sichuan, the people of Zhao Xi's family are poor and love blessings, and the evil slaves under them are lawless, and they persecute the poor people and can't live, do you believe it or not? Lao Tzu does what he says! ”
The porter was dumbfounded!
Zhao Xi loves fame the most in his life, if it really spreads out like what this team official said, the master must beat himself to death!
"Come, brethren, eat!" Wang Hengyue didn't care about anything, he simply asked the hawker to put the basket at the gate of Zhao Xi's house, and beckoned his subordinates to come over.
Yang Fangyun and Liu Sihai still had some concerns after all, but Pete didn't care, first, he was really hungry, and secondly, this way of eating was unheard of, it was very interesting, pick up the guy and eat!
Liu Sihai brought another jar of wine, Wang Hengyue took it, took a sip, and handed it to Pete: "Pete, drink!" ”
"No, you've drunk it, it's unhygienic." Who would have thought that Pete would come up with such a sentence.
"Fucking foreign devils, and so stinky." Wang Hengyue scolded with a smile and handed the wine jar to Yang Fangyun. Yang Fangyun didn't pay so much attention to it, took it and took a sip, and handed it to Liu Sihai and Xie Shuixiang.
Pete suddenly screamed: "Help, help, spicy, too spicy, spicy to death, spicy to death I'm a foreign devil!" ”
It turned out that this Sichuan hot pot was numb and spicy, and Pete was greedy again, so he couldn't bear it anymore after eating it in a big mouthful.
But in this world, I can call myself a "foreign devil", but I'm afraid that there is only Pete like this!
