Chapter 21 Life in Xiangzhou

As mentioned in the previous chapter, Zhao Gou relied on his memory of military songs to sort out three major disciplines and eight points of attention. He hoped that with the same strict military discipline, he could restrain the same excellent army. After Zhao Gou put forward the general program, Wang Boyan didn't care about resting, and went out to deal with specific matters (even if he was still suspicious). And Zhao Gou himself, but he went back to the room to make up for sleep.

Zhao Gou has never slept indoors since he went to the mountains to hunt for six days, and now he finally has the opportunity to sleep in a bed, and he naturally enjoys it infinitely. He changed into pajamas and stretched the bed, rubbed the quilt again, and found that his quilt was still made of animal skin. While wrapping the quilt around his body, he recalled that it seemed that he had traveled for more than ten days, that is, he had never covered a quilt and slept on a cotton mattress, nor had he seen anyone wearing a cotton jacket. Zhao Goxin said that cotton is not of Chinese origin. Before the drowsiness hit, he snorted a few times, thinking that he really had a long way to go, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Zhao Gou naturally slept dimly, and he didn't know how long it took, he was in a daze when he heard Qiu's big belly voice coming from outside the door, "Big sister, how did you make that venison?" ”

Hu Die giggled a few times and jokingly said, "Tell you, what good do I have?" ”

Qiu swallowed and spat at the mouth, and asked rhetorically, "If you don't tell me, what's the benefit of you?" ”

Hu Die smiled again, "If I don't tell you, I won't be able to do anything." ”

Qiu Dabelly heard Hu Die say this, as if he didn't know how to reply, he held back for a long time, and finally said, "Yes, why don't I teach you bibimbap?" ”

Hu Die smiled even happier this time, "Don't be funny, this girl can make porridge at the age of three, and stew bibimbap at the age of five, and you still need to teach her?" ”

Qiu Dabei didn't hear that Hu Die was joking, and said indignantly, "Emma, big sister, why are your parents not kind?" At the age of three, the stove is not high, why do you let you boil porridge? ”

"Shh Kang Lu, who had been standing outside the tent in the house, couldn't listen anymore, so he quietly walked to the door and said in a low voice, "You two talk quietly, the king is asleep!" ”

Zhao Gou is already sober, he has been listening to the excitement, and after Kang Lu said this, it seems that the excitement cannot be heard. So, he pretended to stretch his waist and asked lazily, "What time is it?" ”

Lan Jue hurriedly drove over, "Back to the king, it's not five minutes now." (2:15 p.m.)

When Zhao Gou heard that it had been this hour, he felt a little hungry, so he involuntarily rubbed his stomach. Lan Jue comprehended and said, "King, Miss Hu Die has already prepared the dishes, the king is not as good as ......"

Zhao Gou heard that he had already prepared the dishes, and got up with a grunt. Lan Jue ran out quickly and told Hu Die that she could go cook; And Kang shoes, considerately handed the toothbrush and basin. Interestingly, the Song Dynasty already had toothbrushes and toothpaste (Zhao Gou once again lamented the developed civilization of China in the Song Dynasty). Moreover, the toothbrush looks almost the same as the modern one, called "toothbrush"; However, the toothpaste is dark brown and more like a modern ointment. When Zhao Gou crossed over to brush his teeth for the first time, he also deliberately asked Lan Qi Kangshu about the ingredients of the ointment, and the two of them specially checked the information and found that there were more than 20 kinds of materials in the toothpaste, such as white sandalwood, cloves, agarwood, and musk...... When Zhao Gou heard the word musk, he was shocked and immediately asked if the woman also used this thing to brush her teeth? Lan Qikang looked at each other and replied, naturally, it is also used. Zhao Gou was shocked and said, brushing your teeth with musk, won't you have a miscarriage? Lan Jue Kang said, when brushing his teeth, he didn't eat toothpaste, how could he have a miscarriage? Zhao Gou listened to this answer, and said in his heart that this is the case, he has watched a TV series in modern times, and in the play, it is said that burying musk under a tree can sterilize the girls in the whole yard, which is really ridiculous.

Speaking of which, Zhao Gou brushed his teeth and washed his face, finished dressing, and soon, he sat in the restaurant of the Xiangzhou Governor's Mansion, ready to eat. The people who can enjoy it are all freshly made and eaten, and the kitchen of Xiangzhou Zhizhou is naturally the same. Therefore, in front of Zhao Gou's seat, there are only two delicate small snacks, one is crystal clear and the other is white and red, which looks delicate and delicious.

Qiu Shi, who was standing behind Zhao Gou with his hands behind his back, saw him looking at the dim sum with chopsticks, and opened his mouth to explain, "King, these two dim sums, the green one is called mint cake, and the white one is the rice dumpling." These two plates are for the king's stomach, don't ......" Speaking of this, he swallowed and continued, "Don't eat too much. ”

Shi Erlang, who was standing next to Qiu Shi, saw that Qiu Shi's big belly was about to flow out, so he hurriedly dragged him, meaning didn't you just eat it? Why are you embarrassed to ask the king for snacks?

Zhao Gou smiled secretly, and said in his heart that if he ate these two plates of pastries, wouldn't it be Zhu Bajie to eat ginseng fruit? Naturally, he only tasted one or two per plate, and then waited for the main meal. As for the rest, it must be who wants to eat it for whom. According to Zhao Gou's character, he should have promised to give Qiu Shi dim sum immediately, but he has also been in power for almost a month, and he has mastered the skills of being a leader slightly. When the leader interacts with the class, it is best to talk less, otherwise, it is easy to make the people he helps pampered and proud, and the people who are not supported by him will be resentful. In the long run, not only will the two subordinates be ruined, but the relationship between superiors and subordinates will also be problematic, and the relationship between colleagues will not be able to develop healthily. Therefore, this time Zhao Gou didn't say a word, just sandwiched a hair ball and tasted it carefully.

The skin of the dough should be made of glutinous rice flour, and the filling inside seems to be black crisp (black sesame mixed with lard), so when you eat it, the outer layer is smooth and strong, and the inner layer is glutinous and sweet. After eating it in one bite, Zhao Gou actually felt that the hairs on his whole body stood up, it was really delicious, so beautiful that he even closed his eyes, as if there was nothing in the world except for the soft glutinous hair ball. After tasting a dumpling, Zhao Gou couldn't help but slam the chopsticks on the table, and everyone in the restaurant was startled, and said why is the king angry?

If Zhao Gou was angry, he was naturally angry why he hadn't eaten such a delicious thing before, and why didn't Wang Boyan introduce him to the cook who made the rice dumplings earlier, and only listened to him, "This rice dumplings were made by Hu Die's eldest sister?" ”

Lan Jue was waiting on the side, he didn't know what Zhao Gou meant, and nodded stunnedly.

Zhao Gou immediately said loudly, "It's delicious!" It's so delicious, reward, must be rewarded! Speaking of this, Zhao Gou suddenly remembered that in addition to being the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses sealed by the emperor, he actually didn't have a penny in his pocket, so he added, "When Hu Die's eldest sister finishes cooking this meal, invite her to Marshal Ben, and Marshal Ben will reward her personally!" ”

Lan Qi had a look on his face, but these days, he has long been accustomed to Zhao Gou's abnormal behavior, and he has long given up his persuasion, so he can only nod his head and say yes.

Zhao Gou took a sip of tea and rinsed his mouth, ready to taste the mint cake again, at this time, Kang Lu came in and said, "King, Deputy Marshal Wang Boyan brought three volunteer soldiers to ask for a meeting. ”

Zhao Gou raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart, he didn't expect Wang Boyan to be a model worker, nodded and said, "Please, please invite Wang Shuai in." Lan Jue, plus a chair. ”
