The flower fairy looked at Wang Mumu who was looking up at the blue sky, and joked with a smile: "Lord Wang, do you want to eat meat?" Braised pork? Do you want some bamboo shoots and spinach in it? Do you call your imaginary braised pork 'Dongpo pork'? You hate Su Shi so much? Do you want to eat his flesh? ”

Wang Mumu rolled his eyes at the flower fairy, this flower girl, read everything I thought in my heart, but she didn't understand it, I am not a wild man, no one wants to eat human flesh, how can I go to braised it?

Since Xiao Xian'er and Xiao Xiamo from the Liao Kingdom visited for the second time last time, out of various considerations, Wang Mumu reluctantly agreed to Xiao Xian'er and his own begging. After negotiation, Wang Mumu and the other party each took a step back, and Wang Mumu agreed to Xiao Xian'er to go to the court; Xiao Xiamo agreed that in order to comply with the rigid regulations in the Marriage Law that women must reach the age of eighteen, Xiao Xian'er, who is now only sixteen, temporarily went to Harvard as a student in Liao, instead of going to Liuqiu as a marriage, so she would no longer think about what propaganda activities to do in Liaoguo Liuyu. At the same time, Harvard agreed to accept Xiao Xian'er's dowry in the name of tuition and fees; However, 2,000 Liao guards were refused entry. The Institute of Technology did not accept the intermediary of the Liao people about the Institute of Technology and the Bai family's industry, and the Liuqiu Society prepared the tribute to the imperial court as quickly as possible.

Wang Mumu, who is now thinking about it, is thinking about the reverie of Xiao Xian'er's idea of using braised pork to promote marriage last time. In Wang Mumu's memory, although the production of "Dongpo Meat" was formed when Su Shi lived in Huangzhou, the name and fame of "Dongpo Meat" should be in the current time period. Regarding the origin of "Dongpo meat", the statements in the previous life are not consistent, and there are roughly as follows:

Legend 1: "Dongpo meat" was first made by Su Dongpo in Huangzhou, when he wrote the method of roasting meat in the poem "Eating Pork": "Huangzhou good pork, the price is as cheap as dung, the rich refuse to eat, and the poor do not understand how to cook." Slow fire, less water, when the fire is enough, it is beautiful. Come to make a bowl every morning, and you can be full of your own family. ”

Legend 2: When he was in Huangzhou, one day, Su Shi's house came to the guest, because Huangzhou is rich in products, more grain and pigs, and the meat price is cheaper, Su Shi likes to eat pork, so he immediately cooked pork to entertain guests. Su Shi put the pork in the pot, put the seasoning in the water, simmered slowly over a slight fire, and then played chess with the guests. The two played against each other, and they were very interested, and it was not until the end of the game that Su Shi suddenly remembered the meat in the pot. He thought that a pot of pork would be burnt, so he hurried into the kitchen, and suddenly felt the aroma was tangy. Stretch out the chopsticks to pick up a piece and send it to the mouth, it will feel mellow and delicious, glutinous but not greasy. After tasting it, the guests were also full of praise. Su Shi was inspired by this, and then concocted it in the same way, which was also delicious, and since then, he has often made this dish, entertaining guests and eating without guests. Su Shi also summarized the experience of cooking this dish and wrote a poem "Ode to Pork":

"Wash the bell, with less water, and you can't afford to smoke the firewood. Don't urge him when he is familiar with himself, and he is beautiful when he is full. Huangzhou is a good pork, and the price is as cheap as dirt. The noble refuse to eat, and the poor do not know how to cook. Get up in the morning and make two bowls. It's so full that you don't care. ”

However, there was no name for the dish at the time. It was named "Dongpo Meat" when he went to Hangzhou to be a taishou. Remove the weeds, pass the lake lane, build embankments and bridges, restore the old appearance, and increase the scenic spots. Some people in Hangzhou are grateful to him, so they call the braised pork cooked by this method "Dongpo meat", which became famous in Hangzhou for a while and became a famous local dish.

Legend 3: Following the past, Hangzhou people heard that Su Shi usually likes to eat braised pork, so many people came to deliver pork. After Su Shi received a lot of pork, he asked his family to cut the meat into cubes, add seasoning and wine, and use his cooking method to simmer it to make braised pork and distribute it to others. After everyone eats it, they praise this meat for its crispy and fragrant taste, fat but not greasy, so people named this roast meat "Dongpo meat" after him. Later, some chefs added winter (eastern) bamboo shoots and pineapple (slope) vegetables to the Dongpo meat to make it more meaningful.

Legend 4: In 1077 A.D., Su Shi knew Xuzhou in April of the tenth year of Song Shenzong Xining. Su Dongpo, who has just been in office for less than four months, encountered the Yellow River breach, Su Shi led the city to fight floods and control water, and finally succeeded, the people to show their gratitude, slaughtered pigs and cattle, carried wine and sheep, and sent them to Zhizhou Yamen with gongs and drums, Su Dongpo accepted them one by one, and personally instructed the chef to cook these pigs, cows, and mutton, respectively, and cooked them with knives and matured, and gave them back to the people, so the descendants called this meat Dongpo meat, or Dongpo gift meat.

Legend 5: Su Shi traveled all over the world, and at noon one summer of one year, he came to a place called Aicheng in Yongxiu. At this time, it is dog days and the weather is hot. There is a towering camphor tree on the side of the road, which shades the sun and is a good place to enjoy the shade. Su Shi sat on a stone bench under the tree, enjoying the cool air while reading. Reading and reading, suddenly there was a cry. When he looked up, he saw a farmer hurrying toward him with a child in his arms, followed by a weeping woman. Su Shi thought to himself: Eighty percent of the children have some kind of acute illness, although I am not good at medicine, but I have read a lot of medical books and pharmacy, and I know a little about common diseases. So he stopped the farmer and said, "Let me show me!" ”

It turned out that the middle-aged couple had a child, and they saw it more precious than life, so they named the child "Golden Cub Slang". Jin Cub suddenly fell ill today, unconscious, and the two of them were so frightened that they hurriedly took the child to find Langzhong. As the saying goes, seek medical treatment in a hurry. The farmer looked at Su Dongpo's dress, and was so enthusiastic, he immediately handed the child to him. Su Shi took a look, the child clenched his teeth and twitched his hands and feet, which was in line with the theory of heat stroke in the medical book. So he beckoned the farmer to lay the child flat on the ground, picked a handful of camphor leaves, rubbed them and put them under the child's nose. Later, according to the practice in the medical book, I played with it here and pinched it there. After a while, the golden cub cried out with a "wow". The two of them were really overjoyed, picked up the golden cub, grabbed Su Shi and walked home. Su Shi saw that the farmer was grateful, so he had no choice but to follow. When I came to the farmer's house, I saw that although the family was not rich, it was also very tidy. In order to hold his grace and retain Su Shi's warm hospitality, the farmer was three days in a flash.

Early that morning, the farmer happily bought two catties of pork from the market and brought it back with a bundle of straw. As he walked, he thought: "Now that the meat has been bought, I have to ask my husband how it tastes." So I went to ask Su Shi.

At this time, the sun has just shown half of its smiling face, the morning glow is full of sky, and the dew drops hang on the rice leaves in the field, like bright pearls. Su Shi was fascinated by this beautiful natural scenery, he faced the east window, the poem was a masterpiece, and he was writing poems and writing words! The farmer whispered at the door, "Sir, how do you see this meat being eaten?" ”

Su Shi was fascinated by the poems, and read aloud in his mouth: "He-grass-Zhen-Zhu-Penetrating Fragrance......"

The farmer listened, sir, what does this mean? Think about it carefully: by the way, he told me to cook the meat and straw whole, and cook it thoroughly, so that it will be fragrant, so he said: "Cook the whole grass and the heart is fragrant." This gentleman is really different from us as a farmer, he speaks and speaks poetry, and even eating meat is special. Thinking of this, the farmer took the meat to the kitchen, and according to what Su Shi said and what he thought, he asked his wife to put the pork in the pot with straw and simmer it until it was cooked thoroughly.

When it was time to eat, the dishes were brought to the table, and Su Shi saw a piece of whole meat, which was not cut or cut, and was still tied with straw. I want to ask, but I'm embarrassed to speak, do you want to eat, a whole piece of meat, the straw is still tied to it, I don't know how to do it. The farmer was also very strange when he saw Su Shi looking at the meat. said to Su Shi: "I'll ask you in the morning, didn't you say, 'Cook the grass and the heart is fragrant'?" I made it according to your wishes, why didn't you eat it, sir? ”

Su Shi suddenly realized. It turned out that the farmer had strung together his words, and the intermittent verses were listened to by him as one sentence. In this case, I had to go down the slope to get off the donkey. So he told him to cut the rope and eat happily with the farmer's family. I really didn't expect the pork to be mixed with the aroma of straw, which is very fragrant and delicious. After eating, the farmer and his wife went out. Su Shi thought: The host is so hospitable, and he has been disturbed for a few days, and he is very sorry not to go. I wanted to leave several times, but the host refused, so let's leave today. The idea is certain, take out five taels of silver from the baggage, put it on the table, and leave a note that reads: "The master is gracious, Su Shi said goodbye." ”

This matter was spread ten, ten by hundred, and everyone learned to use straw to tie meat and cook it, and it was really crispy and delicious. The villagers called this kind of meat "Dongpo meat". Because of its delicious taste and unique method, it has been passed down all the time.

Legend 6: When Su Shi was doing thorn history in Hangzhou, when he was governing the West Lake, he invented Dongpo meat, which was very popular.

There is a big restaurant in Hangzhou, and the owner of the restaurant saw that people praised "Dongpo meat", so he discussed with the chef and cut the pork into cubes and burned it until it was red and crispy; Hang out the sign, also named "Dongpo meat".

As soon as the new dish came out, the business was booming, killing ten big pigs every day was not enough to sell it, and the owners of other restaurants were red-eyed and learned to do it. Later, after being recognized by the same party, "Dongpo meat" was designated as the first famous dish in Hangzhou.

Legend 7: When Su Shi was in Hangzhou, he had a royal history and looked for Su Shi's fork. Yushi went to Hangzhou and ate in the museum. The cousin handed over the menu, and when he saw it, the first one was "Dongpo meat"! He frowned and thought about it, very happy, and asked for this dish. After returning to Beijing, Yushi went to see the emperor. said: "Your Majesty, Su Shi is a assassin in Hangzhou, corrupt and pervert the law, and do all the evil things!" The common people were eager to eat his flesh. ”

The emperor said, "How do you know?" Is there any evidence? ”

Goshi presented the large stack of greasy menus. As soon as the emperor saw the menu, he made a holy decree to dismiss Su Shi from his post and send him to Hainan to fill the army.

……

To sum up, Wang Mumu was thinking, as a typical doctor, although Su Shi and his people were delicious and delicious, according to his close understanding and analysis, he would never do it himself when it came to cooking. Because the gentleman speaks, and the villain moves; Because the gentleman cooks far away, is delicious and lazy to cook. Therefore, it is a fact that this Dongpo meat is a traitorous chef who borrowed his name and succeeded in the restaurant.

And, to sum up, it can also be seen that a piece of Dongpo meat has more than ten kinds of legends, so it is not surprising that the Su Causeway and the Three Pools of Yinyue, which are unfinished, will be said to be good flowers and peaches.

……

Now, instead of Qin Cao as Huang Shiren's secretary, the second part of Tianlong called and said that recently, the dredging project of the West Lake, with the writing of "Wanmin" Wanmin went into the water for two and a half days, during which the lake went down twice for half a day, from five to three, and they were asked to go ashore early, not before the sun set, so today's signatories of the Wanmin petition only remember the work for half a day, and the government issued a certificate to offset the official work, forced labor, miscellaneous labor, etc. in the future, which is the Soviet version of the work-for-relief. It is completely different from Fan Zhongyan's disaster relief in the second year of Huangyou (1050), with the same name and surname. This half-day work does not need to be catering, and after two low-cost liveliness, the large-scale renovation of the West Lake has momentum and can be recorded in history.

Because the total amount of the sludge project is not high, this Lord Su made a statement, stop disturbing the people, so the people no longer use work for relief. As for the dredging, I abandoned the people, I thought I would use these 2,000 Liao guards to take care of the aftermath, the Liao people are obedient, and they can keep it secret, and the efficiency is also high, let them toss for a few more days, look at the long mound that has grown into the embankment, and plan to dig a few holes in it and build a few bridges, which is not bad; Looking at the island in the middle of the lake that has been formed, it has been circled and opened up a unique area, which has been called the three pools and the moon, which is very good. However, Huang Shiren's bridge-building plan had not yet been issued, and the marriage of the small county lords of the Liao State had already been discussed, and the Liao State and Liuqiu agreed on a number of terms, one of which was that Wang Mumu did not accept the Liao guards who had been nailed and some of them were disabled, and all of them were repatriated, so that they could all return to the Liao State. This one, in fact, the majority of Liao guards still like it, and the days in a foreign country are not comfortable, so it is better to live in their hometown. In this way, they will no longer go down to the West Lake.

Huang Shiren knew that the Liao people were going to withdraw, and thought to himself, the West Lake project was successful, and these Liao people had meritorious contributions, from the earliest arrest of foreign women to the street battles on the lakeshore, from the forced demolition and forced relocation to the first to go to the lake, and they made great contributions, but for various reasons, I could not reveal their nationality, so what remained in people's memories and in historical records could only be the migrant workers of the Great Song Dynasty, and there would be no foreign soldiers. Huang Shiren thought, if the bridge is not built first, the matter can be over, so let's take care of the hospice and have a farewell banquet. There is no need to do it in a restaurant, 2,000 people, there are too many people, just eat by the West Lake, and let the people of Hangzhou see that the people in charge of our affairs are affectionate, you make great efforts, I will give big meat.

The Liao people of this era only ate beef and mutton, not pork. But Huang Shiren will not serve beef and mutton, beef and mutton are expensive, and pork is cheap, of course, pork. But the pork Liao people don't like it, what should I do? After discussion, it was decided to add more condiments! Intensify cooking! Therefore, Huang Shiren called the big chef and told them to cut the meat into cubes, roast the meat skin until browned, and then soak it in water, scrape off the burnt skin with a knife, put it in the pot, add seasoning and wine, winter bamboo shoots, spinach, sugar, cover the lid, boil it with a strong fire, change it to a simmer and simmer slowly, almost 1 hour later, turn the meat every 10 minutes, until it is soft and flavorful, wait for the soup to be oily, and finish the plate.

The fire is so bad that the pork is rotten, and the money is easy to do. The braised pork cooked by Huang Shiren in this way, with thick oil red sauce, is delicious and fragrant, and it is very good. Huang Shiren used this braised pork to comfort the Liao guards who left the water in the name of Lord Su. So, on the shore of the West Lake, a long slip, 2,000 people are eating braised pork, it is also quite spectacular, the meat fragrance is scattered, supplemented by local wine, the fragrance is more mixed, for a while, in the middle of eating, there are beautiful people, it is on the line, this is the care of Lord Su for us! Meat! When you eat it, you think of Lord Su Dongpo! Then this meat, let's call it "Dongpo meat"! For a while, in the midst of eating and making trouble, there were conspirators, so they spread rumors, this is the braised pork made by the little county lord of Liao for everyone, she is celebrating the marriage with King Jinghai!
