Chapter 341: Hot Pot
It takes more than 100 days to chop bamboo and fly bamboo, so after Shangguan Feng found a good person, he first ordered them to cut down bamboo, bamboo, and young bamboo.
The address was also chosen, an abandoned workshop, not far from the bamboo forest, relatively speaking, it is very convenient to transport bamboo.
Abandoned workshops are not unusable, but they can still be repaired a little.
It happened that in the large courtyard of the workshop, there was a pond that had dried up, and Shangguan Feng ordered someone to clean up the pond, fill it with water, transport the bamboo back, and put it directly into the pond.
The fence was reinforced, the facilities were arranged, and the paper mill was put into operation.
Shangguan Feng is so busy every day because of papermaking that he can't see anyone, because the bamboo has not been soaked yet, so Xiaoxiao is very leisurely, and often goes to Tang Wei and Shen Ruobing to play.
Princess An is also a good one, if she were a mother-in-law from another family, her daughter-in-law would not be at home every day, and she would run around outside, and she would have to have a meal for a long time.
"Xiaoxiao, why have you been coming here so often lately? Shouldn't you and your newlywed son be more affectionate at home? ”
Tang Wei saw Xiaoxiao, who was running here every day, and her face showed a suspicious look:
"Shouldn't it, you two guys quarreled, right?!"
Xiaoxiao.
"Stop the messy thoughts in your head, he's just a little busy, I'm bored at home alone, so I want to come out to play with you, what, aren't you welcome?"
"Welcome is welcome, but according to the playbook, your new daughter-in-law runs out every day, your mother-in-law should have an opinion, right?!"
"Huh? Probably not?! The mother concubine is very good, I came out these days, and she didn't say anything. ”
Xiaoxiao waved her hand, at this point, Princess An is really a reasonable person, and she is not too harsh on her, and she does not ask herself for those rules when she wants to ask for peace in the morning.
On the contrary, she doesn't have to have any pressure, the palace is her home, and she can just do what she wants.
As for those rules of morning and dusk, Prince and Princess An even canceled it.
There should be a taste of home at home, those rules are too restrictive, so forget it.
Although Princess An said so, she still said good morning every day, and then ran out to play.
"Okay, that's good, I'm afraid that if you run around like this, your mother-in-law will be unhappy and put on small shoes for you in front of the world."
Xiaoxiao...
"Xiaoxiao, we haven't eaten barbecue for a long time, why don't we eat barbecue at noon today?!"
Tang Wei looked at the sun in the sky, warm, since the winter last year, until now, she has not eaten barbecue, because the weather is too cold and not suitable.
Now looking at the bright sun, I suddenly want to eat.
"Today we don't eat barbecue, we can have shabu-shabu."
"Hot pot?"
"Well, a new way to eat, let's go, let's go fiddle with the ingredients now, and later, we will have a happy meal, which will definitely satisfy you."
When Tang Wei heard that it was delicious, she didn't have any opinions, Xiaoxiao said that it was delicious, so it must be delicious.
After washing the ingredients, Xiaoxiao asked people to put a large table in the courtyard with a charcoal stove on it.
The pot was filled with a large pot of boiling water, and a layer of chili peppers, peppercorns and the like floated densely on top.
Tang Wei and Shen Ruobing couldn't help but take a breath when they saw the red soup base,
"Isn't that too spicy?"
"It's spicy and delicious, and it's definitely going to whet your appetite."
Xiaoxiao didn't object to Tang Wei's words, it was a little spicy, but it was definitely within the range of what they could bear.
A few people sat down, all learning from Xiaoxiao, what they wanted to eat, they put those into the pot, and then scooped them up when they felt cooked, and served them with the dipping sauce in a small bowl.
There is no doubt that after eating this hot pot, it was not a hot day, but they were sweating, and the most important thing was that Shen Ruobing and Tang Wei fell in love with the taste of hot pot again.
In the days to come, when the two of them are fine, they will make a hot pot and make a barbecue, and they will live a good life.
The affairs of the paper mill are carried out in an orderly manner, and the business of Xiaoxiao's Women's Workshop and Kou Fuxuan is also in full swing.
The quiet days of the years make everyone feel that this is a kind of eternity.
Soon it was a hot summer, and this year's summer was rainy and rainy, and it rained for more than a month, causing floods in many places.
Many displaced people flocked to the capital, and many places outside the city were occupied, and there were even some Diao people who wanted to break through the city gate and break into the city.
In the main hall, the emperor looked at the courtiers standing below, and he was angry:
"You people, don't you usually be able to talk? Why are they all dumb now? Let you find a way to resettle the refugees, why don't you talk about it now? ”
"Your Majesty, there are indeed a lot of refugees, if you open the city gate, I'm afraid that it won't be long before the entire capital is full of refugees, and these refugees come from many places, even if all the people in Jing Zhaoyin's department are dispatched, I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist one or two."
Lin Cheng saw that everyone didn't speak, so he had to stand up:
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that these refugees will let them gather outside the city gate and send people out to give food every day, which is the greatest tolerance for them."
"Prime Minister Lin Cheng's words are wrong."
Dali Siqing retorted:
"Refugees are also the emperor's people, if you really order not to open the city gates, then how should those refugees think? Is it to make them feel that the emperor has given up on them? ”
"Xu Zhengyan, I didn't let the emperor give up on them, I just didn't let them enter the city, don't make things so unbearable, it's a big deal, let people help them build some sheds, so that they can have a place to shelter from the wind and rain, isn't that okay?"
After Prime Minister Lin finished speaking, he gave another salute to the emperor and continued:
"Your Majesty, what the minister just meant was not to abandon these refugees, but to keep them out of the city and deal with them properly.
As for this city, the emperor's safety comes first, and as a courtier, you naturally have to put your safety first. ”
"Well, what Lin Aiqing said is not a solution, according to what Prime Minister Lin Cheng said, Jingzhao Yin Zhonggu, Shen Shang, the head of the household department, and Cong Shi'an, the squire of the military department, you must cooperate with Prime Minister Lin Cheng to appease the refugees outside the city."
The emperor thought that in the past, when natural and man-made disasters occurred, there would always be some riots, although he lived within this high city wall, but it was better to be cautious in everything, to avoid some people always wanting to harm me, it was better to be careful in everything.
Prime Minister Lin never expected that in the end, such a burden would fall on him.
He's just an ideamaker, and he doesn't want to deal with those refugees at all, so how did he become the person in charge?!
"The ministers obey."
I was reluctant in my heart, but I still had to agree, I had no choice, I buried the pit I dug myself.
