670 Old man who is a picky eater
"Who knows when you will miss the lodging along the way, and you can deal with it by preparing a few cakes and boiling porridge temporarily." When Jiang Weilan spoke, his eyes did not shy away from Guo Ziming at all, didn't this Zuo Xiang's master say that he was from a poor family? Why don't you even know such a little common sense?
Could it be that this is what people say is difficult to go from luxury to frugality? After being an official for a long time, you can't accept these ordinary foods?
Guo Ziming probably saw Jiang Weilan's scrutinizing gaze, he turned his head, and said very arrogantly: "Don't think that the old man is a person who can't endure hardships, the old man was also very able to endure hardships in his early years." It's just that I just don't like to eat cakes, you are pampered, but you don't know what it is like to eat cakes all at once, and eat bread and gruel for 360 days. I don't even want to eat it now, I don't even want to smell it. ”
Jiang Weilan didn't think that he would admit it directly, and he didn't hide it at all, but after thinking about it, it was right, Zuo Xiangguo was from a poor family since he was a child, and it is said that he was staying in the temple to study, and he may have really suffered a lot in order to catch the exam.
People are like this, if you eat too much of a thing, it will not produce dependence, then there will be a strong backlash, and you have eaten enough cakes back then, and now you don't want to eat anymore.
In Jiang Weilan's view, what Guo Ziming did was useless, she had been suspecting that Guo Ziming must have an errand to do when he went out, but now they are beginning to wonder if this old man is unwilling to stay in the capital, so he slipped out to play in the mountains and rivers.
As a result, by noon, the group was still wandering on the road.
Jiang Weilan really regretted it a little at this time, why did he go with him? If you walk on your own, these roads will not take half a day at all. They had already arrived at the next village, and they might be able to eat a bowl of hot noodle soup with pickles.
However, now it is obviously too late to regret it, Jiang Weilan can only insist on continuing to move forward quickly.
It's just that she didn't eat much in the morning, and this time she was hungry, and her stomach was gurgling, and she pressed her hand on her stomach unconsciously.
"Miss, or you want to eat some cakes." Conglin herself was hungry, and of course knew that this taste was uncomfortable.
"Forget it, let's go further, there should be someone, if there is really no one, just stop and use our small stove to make some porridge." Jiang Weilan thought that the old man in the other carriage obviously didn't know how to eat cakes, so he could only frown and say.
"That's too much time." Cong Jue obviously felt that it was unacceptable to delay time like this.
Jiang Weilan said with a wry smile: "It's already been delayed like this, are you still afraid of delaying this little time?" Even if we don't make food, we won't be able to go fast, so it's better not to grieve our stomachs. ”
It hadn't been a quarter of an hour after saying this, and the carriage in front of him really stopped again, and it turned out that Guo Ziming found that there was a tea shed in front of him, so he decided to solve the problem of eating here.
"Doll, let these two girls around you cook for the old man, don't let me eat cakes, I tell you, I definitely won't eat cakes." The old man said with a look of bitterness and hatred for the bread.
Jiang Weilan looked at his expression that looked extremely aggrieved, he really didn't know what to say, fortunately, there was a simple stove room behind the tea shed, and the rice, flour, oil, and meat were all carried, so it didn't take too much time to make a little bit of it.
"Conglin, Congjun, you two go to make some meat porridge, I'm hungry too." Jiang Weilan could only speak.
However, Guo Ziming was obviously very dissatisfied, he complained: "After walking all morning, how can you eat some porridge to be full, how can you make a bowl of hot noodle soup." Doll, didn't the old man tell you, in addition to not eating bread, do I not like to eat porridge? ”
Jiang Weilan couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "I said Guo Lao, we are going out, but we are not in the house, how can we have such conditions?" Besides, we had only walked less than thirty miles this morning, and if we continued like this, we would probably have to sleep in the wilderness at night. ”
She originally planned to be respectful to Lord Zuo Xiang, but helplessly, this old man's performance always made her easily ignore the fact that he was a high-ranking Zuo Xiang.
Guo Ziming was robbed by Jiang Weilan like this, but he didn't force it, but his expression was still very aggrieved.
Jiang Weilan looked like she wanted to cry without tears, what was going on? She's just getting a grandfather.
"You can make some rice, let's just bring two of the dishes we have with you." After saying this, Jiang Weilan opened his mouth again: "Old Guo, I can talk ahead, if you are still not satisfied, I will not serve." ”
Where did Guo Ziming dare to say that he was not satisfied, he immediately said: "Satisfied, satisfied, the old man likes to eat white rice the most, as long as there are dishes to eat, he can eat three bowls." ”
Jiang Weilan sighed helplessly and asked Conglin to prepare. She carried a lot of dried vegetables and pickles with her carriage, barely enough to make do.
After the two grandparents of the tea shed got the silver, they neatly vacated the stove behind them to cook for Conglin, and even took out a cabbage and a few eggs from their own family.
Due to the shortage of time, Conglin simply made two dishes and sent them over, and the two dishes were enough for Guo Ziming and Jiang Weilan to eat, and the others were soaked in cabbage and dried meat soup with rice, and of course, pickles for rice.
And at this time, the big man also knew, why the old man had to act with this little girl, it was really much better than them going on the road by themselves, although there was no stir-fry to eat, but there was a hot meat and vegetable soup was also very good.
"Thank you Miss Conglin, trouble girl, girl's craftsmanship is really good." This person is a person who understands current affairs, and he is shy at the moment.
Conglin didn't want to deal with it, but the young lady said that this old man is Lord Zuo Xiang, and people often say that the prime minister is a seven-rank official in front of the prime minister, and these two people are the personal people of Lord Zuo Xiang, and they really can't be messed with.
"It's okay, we have to eat ourselves anyway, and the meal for one person is cooking, and the cooking for two people is also cooking. It's just that I don't know what the names of the two big brothers are. Said with a smirk on Lynn's face.
"My name is Wu Da, his name is Wu Er, we are two brothers, in the future, you will call us Brother Wu and Second Brother Wu." The man introduced himself, and on the other hand, he also introduced the silent people on the side.
After Lin answered, she buried her head in eating her own food, and the question just now was just to avoid making the scene too embarrassing, so she really didn't care what they were called.
