Chapter 32: Kukai
Because I was worried about going to Qinglong Temple, I lay down until the time of the wild chicken, I fell asleep hazy, and I stayed at dawn.
The first time I visited, it was not good to talk empty-handed, he was a person from outside the party, and these vulgar utensils such as gold, silver and jade silk would not be in the eyes, so it was right to simply make some sushi in the past.
Passing by the kitchen, Sister Chung Xia was washing Bolencho (spinach), and when she saw me coming, she was taken aback, "Today is a monk fighting and pulling braids, and there is nothing to do!" ”
I didn't know much from the scorn on my face. After all, since he entered the house, he has been indulged by Lang Jun, and he has not been a serious slave for a day.
Seeing that I was embarrassed, she didn't tease anymore, and pointed to the freshly steamed golden soufflé, "The rouge rice is still boiling on the silver hanging, if you are hungry, eat this hot first!" ”
My heart was warm, so I first ate one in a lonely cage and served a bowl of civet meat jelly. Xu was afraid that I would eat it, so my sister brought me a disk of sour pickled pickles as a snack. As I chewed, I asked, "Sister, can you steam some rice for me?" I also needed a few pieces of tofu skin, diced ears, for rice rolls. ”
She sniffed, stirring her professional sense of smell, "Ming'er, your intestines are making a story again?" ”
I said diligently: "I don't know any story, but just a few words, Sister Ah is so clever that people even want to swallow their tongues." ”
Chung Xia listened very useful, not only prepared all the ingredients I listed, but also added matsutake mushrooms and sesame seeds to make up for the lack of meat taste. In order to master the production method, she made 10 servings before she stopped.
I was not idle, so I took some boiling water and took five bamboo tubes to connect it, and poured it in the well water tank. Just as Sister Ran Chun came over, I took her to the tea room to pick up some loose tea. Suddenly, I saw a clay porcelain jar, under the imprint of a group of exquisite streamers, showing old-fashioned simplicity, so I asked: "Sister, what is here?" ”
Ran Chun smiled bitterly, "This is the gift given by the protégé of the lord in Xiazhou during the Guyu season, what is it called [Fangrui]." The lady doesn't drink loose tea, so she put it on hold until now. If you like it, take it whole, and it will be moldy. ”
Seeing that I was like a gold brick, she couldn't help but poke my head with her index finger, "Thanks to you being so shrewd in the tea matter, but it's your turn to find tea, and you can't get up with the baby who can't get into the stream!" ”
I didn't know much about it, so I weighed some [Fangrui] carefully, waited until the water in the bamboo tube was cold, and then threw it down, and then closed the bamboo lid one by one.
When we walked back to the kitchen, Sister Zhenlian was also there, she was holding a warm plate, so that Chung Xia could stack the rice rolls, and put them in a bamboo strip lacquer basket food box, which was a five-person serving. The rest, evened out the only one for her, and sent some to the eldest lady's Linlang Courtyard, and the rest could only be eaten by the slaves and maids in Erxiang Garden.
Except, of course, the three companions!
Before the breakfast was over, Lang Jun rushed to look for me. Hurriedly changed into a set of tender green silk yarn skirts, piggybacked on bamboo tubes, saucers and baskets, and set off in a hurry.
The carriage walked for almost two hours before it arrived, and before entering the mountain gate, it first looked up at the raised spire, like the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty, looking down on everything in the world.
As if pinched, the monk was immediately ushered in, and his hands were folded, "Donors, the little monk calls for Rongyin." Kukai instructed me to lead a few people to the teahouse to meet us. ”
I'm horrified, Kukai, isn't that the Japanese monk who inherited Tang Tantra! Hand in hand with the most Cheng and Yongzhong, lay the foundation of the Japanese tea ceremony to send Tang envoys!
