Chapter 11: The Feast of Vegetables

treats Wang Jian, no matter how much you admire him, you can't be too close to him or too far away, just tacitly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

And Meng Heng is not only the owner of this courtyard, but also the boss of these people, and the father of Meng Zhijing.

"Is the local artemisia can't be used as medicine?" Meng Hui asked again, as if he was unwilling.

"Back to the general, that's what the little nephew's clansmen said."

"Family Master, are you with the Harmony Pharmacy Bureau," Fang Qiong asked inquiringly.

"What does Uncle Jiang think?" Meng Hui consulted Jiang Hai's opinion, and actually kicked the ball to Jiang Hai, who made him the highest.

"Stone will inspect Zaoyang in a few days, and Tuntian is a big deal." Jiang Hai gently tapped the grinding plate, thoughtful, but his eyes looked at Fang Qiong.

Fang Qiong nodded slightly, "There will be a caravan to Sichuan tomorrow, but where is Yungui mentioned by Nianhuai Gongzi." ”

Gong Yi Nianhuai scratched his head, the territory of the Southern Song Dynasty was small, and he accidentally raised his leg and went abroad, if there was so much trouble in the later generations.

"Oh, Uncle Fang, Yun, it refers to Dali, this is expensive, it's Qian, the little nephew has lived overseas for a long time, and I don't know much about my Great Song Dynasty, and I don't know how to call some place names, hehe,"

I don't know much about it, but I still know that Yunnan is Dali, and I am a liar. At this point, Gong Nian Huai really didn't want to show mercy, and neither did the emperor.

What kind of thing is this, go and see Erhai Lake and Dianchi Lake to go abroad. The Yellow River has become a foreign river, and our ancestors started from the Yellow River.

You Southern Song Dynasty even lost the place of origin of China, and you still dare to call it Huaxia? This cheek is thick and boundless.

Meng Hui inadvertently glanced at Gong Nian Huai, his eyes were quite playful.

"Oh, oh, got it. So be it. Fang Qiong saw that Meng Hui and Jiang Hai didn't say anything again, so she got up and walked quickly to the backyard, Gong Nian Huai didn't know what was in the backyard, why did he run to the backyard for something.

"Nian Huai, how did you and your clansmen go overseas, and why did you think of returning to the Great Song Dynasty?" Wang Jian's carelessness in asking seems to be triggered by the long-term overseas residence of Gong Nian Huai, and he expresses concern.

"Oh," Gong Yi thought to him, trying to scare them.

"The little nephew and his people have been wandering between the continent and the ocean. Our ancestors once warned that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. There is no end to the way of skill, and if you don't have contact with the outside world, it is easy to fall into a cycle of self-containment. My father-in-law loses, so he established the world, and it is this skill that must not lose the way of progress. ”

"Reading 10,000 books and traveling 10,000 miles is wonderful. The ancestors are also really good. Meng Heng applauded.

"In this way, it seems that the public loss has lasted for thousands of years, and it is not a fluke." Jiang Hai stroked his beard with emotion, and looked into the distance with his eyes squinted.

"Awards, awards. However, overseas is not very peaceful, the little nephew was entrusted by the family to return to the Central Plains to inquire about the situation here, if the Central Plains is stable, the family will move back to the Central Plains, after all, the roots of the family are in this land. Alas! ”

"Oh? How to put it, where is the overseas land, why is it not peaceful? Wang Jian was the first to ask.

Gong Nian Huai lost no time in sighing again, "It's not because of the Mongols. ”

"Mongols?"

This time, the three of them were not calm, Gong Yi Nianhuai saw it very clearly, what Wang Jian asked was what he thought, and he also asked for Meng Jiang and the others.

At this time, Fang Qiong came back, followed by Meng Zhijing, and there were several people behind Meng Zhijing, each holding a tray in their hands.

"Nianhuai is hungry, come, put down the dishes." Fang Qiong put a basket of fruits in front of Gong Nian Huai, "Nian Huai's son has been overseas for a long time, and this orange is rarely eaten." ”

Fang Qiong really didn't talk nonsense. Because the origin of oranges is China. It was only in the middle of the Ming Dynasty that it spread to Europe, and until now, the Germans and the Dutch still call oranges Chinese apples.

Of course, for the later generations of Gong Yi Nianhuai, oranges are nothing, you can eat them when you want, and you can eat them whenever you want. The taste is definitely better than that of the Southern Song Dynasty.

There were a lot of dishes, and there were enough portions, and in a few moments, a large grinding plate was almost full.

Gong Nian Huai looked at it and was dumbfounded!

This is the hospitality of the Song people?

Nima's is too bad!

There is not a single shredded meat on the green grinding plate, and I don't know how the meat masters cook it.

I haven't had any wine yet, that's it, let's have a bowl of drinks, what, no?

Gong Nian Huai directly wanted to drop the chopsticks and leave, it was too shocking, let's not play like this, I will travel through eight hundred years in one day, is it easy for me.

There are many rivers in Zaoyang, and a bowl of crucian carp soup is also made!

"Nian Huai Gongzi, the Lord knows that you have returned from overseas, and specially prepared this table of vegetables and vegetables, taking the meaning of duckweed back to the roots. Come, eat more if you like. Fang Qiong picked up a pair of chopsticks and gave Gong Nianhuai, and the plate in front of Nianhuai was covered with vegetables.

Meng Zhijing was not idle, each person had a ceramic large bowl, the rice was held high, and it was placed in front of everyone, and then turned around and went back to the backyard.

Gong Yi Nianhuai looked at the sharp vegetables in front of him, and a bowl of rice about the size of a human head, and felt sad.

Look at Meng Hui again, look at Jiang Hai, who is holding a bowl and eating vegetables, and he is not polite, and he even saves the concession.

Didn't you say that life in the Song Dynasty was very exquisite, how did you get rough here.

I'm hungry, but I can't belittle myself like that. Try it first, if it doesn't suit your taste, it means that you will find a place to make instant noodles at night. There are also three packets of instant noodles from 800 years ago in the backpack.

Squeak squeak squeak, this sound, fortunately there is a wind lamp in the yard, otherwise others would think that they have entered a rat's nest.

This dish, as soon as you taste it, you know that it is the craftsmanship of the masters of the barracks, and it is cooked, but the five flavors are unevenly distributed, chewed in the mouth, and listen to the people who are not complete in the five tones singing about the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

Gong Nian Huai is like a little daughter-in-law, twisting and chewing slowly, holding it in her mouth, and her throat and eyes refuse to pass its pass, which is too disrespectful to the esophagus.

Looking at it again, the other four people were looking at him, and the tears of Gong Nian Huai fell.

"General, this feast of 100 vegetables, uh---, it tastes great, the little nephew thinks of the hard work of the ancestors, and the road is blue, and the feelings can't be controlled. Uh---, little nephew, uh---, can't eat it. Thank you, Lord, for the meal. ”

"Pull it down, call Qingyuan to come over and serve tea." Meng Hui didn't say anything, and directly asked people to withdraw from the table.

Gong Yi Nianhuai let out a long breath, although he said that it was not appropriate to drink tea immediately after eating, but he was not so particular, and he went to remove the grass taste in his mouth first.

"Shicai, Nian Huai said that the Mongols are not very peaceful overseas, where does this overseas mean, how much strength do the Mongols have to conquer the Quartet, are they not afraid of making people angry?" Jiang Hai hasn't forgotten the topic before the meal.

"On the way here, I heard Brother Qingyuan say that last year the Mongols destroyed the Xia Kingdom, from the Xia Kingdom to the west, it was the Anxi Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty, and after the Green Mountains was Central Asia, it had almost become the territory of Mongolia. And north of the Tianshan Mountains, to the far north, the iron hooves of the Mongols are turning westward from these places, not far from the Great Qin Kingdom. ”

The general trend of Gong Nian Huai knows, but he has to break his fingers year after year, he doesn't have that ability, and even the place names are mixed with ancient and modern, so try to make these ancients here understand.

In fact, the Song people really don't have much impression of the place west of the Hexi Corridor. Since the Anshi Rebellion of the Tang Dynasty, the area west of the Hexi Corridor has basically nothing to do with the Central Plains Dynasty. By this time in the Southern Song Dynasty, it had been nearly five hundred years, and Sun Wukong's sentence at the foot of the Five Elements Mountain was almost full.

One of the important reasons why the maritime trade of the Southern Song Dynasty developed was that the Silk Road on land had nothing to do with the Southern Song Dynasty. In order to maintain the expenses of the huge military and political system, the Southern Song Dynasty had to take the road of attracting investment and opening up the road of maritime trade.

The local maritime merchants of the Southern Song Dynasty were not strong on the Maritime Silk Road, and the powerful ones were Arab merchants. Arab merchants almost monopolized the entire maritime trade route, and the local merchants of the Southern Song Dynasty also went to the area of today's Strait of Malacca to engage in coastal trade, and the trade routes to the west were almost the world of the Arabs, and the Arabs were the masters of ocean trade.

The four of them listened to Gong Yi Nianhuai's words, but they were in a daze and didn't speak. Fang Qiong brought the basket of oranges over and distributed them to each person.

After Gong Nian Huai took out the words, he didn't care, took an orange and peeled it slowly, peeled it and handed it to Jiang Hai, peeled another one and handed it to Meng Hui, and then peeled another and handed it to Wang Jian, and found that Wang Jian had already eaten two, Fang Qiong waved his hand at Gong Nian Huai, and pointed to his mouth, oh, his mouth was full, no.

Meng Zhijing came back, sat under Wang Jian, and peeled oranges to eat. Seeing that his father and Jiang Hai were sending orange petals to their mouths without knowing the taste, they didn't dare to ask each other, so they ate it.

Gong Nian Huai looked at it, I won't accompany you in a daze, anyway, I eat grass, and big things are done by people who eat meat. Quietly stood up, turned to Meng Zhijing and sat down, also picked up an orange, and asked Meng Zhijing in a low voice.

"Brother Meng, are there many oranges here?"

Meng Zhijing looked at his father first, and also lowered his voice and said, "Brother, I like to eat, I will send you a few baskets for my brother tomorrow, don't refuse." ”

Gong lost Nian Huai hehe, and said in his heart, if this orange is put on a stall in the future generations, if you pout it, you dare to boast that it is delicious?

"Brother Meng, the younger brother has an idea, and he can use oranges."

"Oh? My brother's idea must be extraordinary, I might as well tell my brother first, oranges, I still have them. ”

Although the artemisinin of the public loss of Nian Huai has not yet been wholeed, Meng Zhijing is not a person who has no eyes, just looking at the frame, not for the nonsense of deceiving eating and drinking.

Now that Gong Nian Huai has put forward new ideas, he can't be tempted.

"What are the two boys muttering, there is something to talk about on the table, Nian Huai, your idea, come, tell Grandpa Jiang."

"Oh," Gong Nian Huai stuffed the last orange in his mouth, chewed it twice, stretched out his neck and swallowed it, and then responded,

"The kid sat with the generals, and he was also infected, and when he remembered something, he saw that the generals were thinking about it, and he didn't dare to disturb, so he asked Brother Qingyuan about it, and he didn't want Grandpa Jiang to see thousands of miles,"

"Gotcha, gotta stop, stop, you kid, flamboy, you Grandpa Jiang and I are just a firefly, I can't see thousands of miles, what do you want to know, just say it, there are not so many people in this yard."
