Chapter 176: Desiccant

Zhang Daxiang spoke, "The two younger brothers don't understand the rules, which makes Zhang Shilang smile." ”

"It's okay, you should be vigorous when you're young, and it's not surprising if you have something to say."

Zhang Daxin muttered in his heart, his father's disciple is obviously young and not very old, how can he speak like an old man.

As the eldest brother, Zhang Daxiang can calm down his two younger brothers as soon as he speaks.

Facing these three brothers, Zhang Yang smiled helplessly.

Zhang Gongjin came back, and two or three people also brought the meal to the table, "The old man's family is poor, there is nothing to entertain you, and this is all the food and people brought by the elephant from home." ”

As soon as he finished saying this, the three brothers looked at Zhang Yang again.

Zhang Yang arched his hand and said, "In fact, the students' families are also poor, and they are used to coarse tea and light rice. ”

The meal in front of me is indeed very simple, this whole piece of stewed meat, a pot of vegetables, and a pot of wine.

Looking at a whole large piece of mutton, the mutton still had bones, and I didn't know where to put my mouth, and the three brothers on the three tables opposite, the three brothers had already eaten it with great gusto.

Zhang Gongjin whispered, "Elephant, you sit on his table." ”

Zhang Daxiang was chewing meat in his mouth, raised his head in a daze, looked at his father, and then sat down with a bowl of meat.

Now, Zhang Yang watched him sit at a table with himself.

Zhang Daxiang smiled, "But it's still appetizing?" ”

Zhang Yang nodded slightly.

The room was quiet again, and several people did not speak, but ate quietly.

Zhang Elephant eats when he eats, and he shakes his legs.

How can he have this bad habit, and the whole table is shaking.

Everyone didn't talk while eating, Zhang Yang could even hear the sound of them eating and chewing food, a very quiet atmosphere, and a weird meal.

Zhang Yang took a piece of celery and ate it quietly, he didn't have much appetite for such a piece of meat in front of him, and there was some foam in the broth.

Is it really the original soup and raw food, and you don't need to blanch it?

Zhang Yang barely coped with two bites, and there was redness in the meat, which was about five minutes cooked.

Looking at Zhang Gongjin, who was eating meat, Zhang Yang said, "The recipe for the teacher a few days ago, I don't know what the teacher thinks?" ”

Zhang Yang held a celery in his hand.

Zhang Gongjin wiped her mouth, "The mother-in-law at home is learning, and it is so complicated to make a dish, and she is trying to do it these days." ”

Zhang Yang nodded slightly and continued to eat celery, biting a piece and chewing it in his mouth, and then looked at Zhang Elephant, he lowered his head and gnawed on the meat with all his attention.

Zhang Gongjin whispered again, "You three brothers don't have to be too restrained, Zhang Yang is also from a poor background, he will not dislike our food." ”

Tear off another piece of meat and put it in his mouth to chew, the meat inside is not fully cooked, the meat on the surface is edible, Zhang Yang signaled that he was eating.

Eating has always been a big deal, and one can't go hungry.

On the premise of being able to fill your stomach, try to eat as well as possible.

At the teacher's house, Zhang Yang didn't say much, the meat was just stewed, and the celery was just scalded and served.

Zhang Yang still likes his previous status as a poor person, at least he won't make people feel that he is not easy to approach, and it is easy to find work when he goes out to work.

"I heard that Her Royal Highness the princess has created something that can go to heaven?" Zhang Gongjin asked while eating meat in his mouth.

"It's not perfect, at most it can only make people float on a high place for a while, if you really want to say heaven, this kind of thing can't be done." Zhang Yang said while eating, only eating meat that has been cooked on the surface, the salt is very small, the saltiness is very light, and he knew that it would be good to bring some soy sauce.

"The old man also heard from the generals of the court that the usefulness of this thing is very small, and His Majesty has asked the army to make many such things, and they are all used to investigate the military situation in the army."

"Your Majesty is really making the best use of everything."

"Have you ever thought about building anything other than that big lantern?"

"I'm building a semi-automated assembly line, and I plan to use it to make a grinding disc for grinding grain, which can increase a certain production efficiency."

"The old man has seen many old-fashioned people, but you are a person who dares to push the old and bring forth the new."

"Makes the teacher smile."

After eating a meal, the meat in front of Zhang Yang's eyes almost didn't move, but he just tore a few pieces of meat on the edge and ate two or three bites.

The people in the house took all the food down.

Zhang Gongjin took a sip of tea, "Do you have any views on the matter of sealing the prime minister in the past few days?" ”

Zhang Yang arched his hand and said, "The students don't have any opinions. ”

Zhang Gongjin stroked his beard and said, "You just say it." ”

In fact, the prime minister of the Zhenguan Dynasty has changed several times, which shows that Li Shimin is also vacillating about the candidate for the position of prime minister.

If I say it right, I'm afraid it won't frighten people.

Zhang Yang sighed, "I don't think it will be Gao Shilian." ”

Zhang Gongjin nodded, "The difference is that Gao Shilian's identity is the uncle of the current queen, and His Majesty is also jealous, after all, it is this identity that drags down Gao Shilian's hind legs, and the old man feels that Gao Shilian's ability to be the prime minister is beyond his reach, and today's Gao Shilian is not as ambitious as the eldest grandson Wuji." ”

"Does the teacher value Zhao Guogong more?"

"Gao Shilian is already old, and his twilight is too heavy, and he is not suitable for the ambitions of His Majesty today." Zhang Gongjin pondered for a while, "Guess who will sit in the position of prime minister, it's better to think about what kind of prime minister Your Majesty needs." ”

"The teacher is right."

Li Shimin is still young, and he needs a prime minister who can match his ambitions, so that he can better carry out his grand plans.

The eldest grandson, Wuji, was more suitable for the emperor's appetite.

Gao Shilian is the queen's uncle, and he has more scruples about doing things, so he may not follow Li Shimin's wishes.

It was already night, Zhang Yang sat up straight with his hands in his hands, listening to Zhang Gongjin speak.

Zhang Gongjin said with a smile, "It's not early, elephants are sending off." ”

got up and saluted, Zhang Yang walked outside the house, and Li Yue was waiting at the door.

Walking out of the house, Zhang Daxiang sent him all the way.

"I heard that the third brother said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince admires Zhang Shilang very much, and often mentions his appreciation."

"And this kind of thing? I don't know. ”

"It's that you are very close to His Royal Highness King Wei, and my father often says that it is not a good thing to get too close to the prince."

"That's what the teacher taught." Zhang Yang walked with his hands in his hands.

"There are some things that my father can't say to you directly, let me relay them to you."

"Brother Elephant, please speak."

"The Turks have always been capricious, and if they want the north to be pacified, they also want Zhang Shilang not to be merciful."

"I see what the teacher meant."

Zhang Daxiang bowed and saluted, "Then I'll go back first." ”

Li Yue hugged Zhang Yang's arm, "Husband, I'm hungry." ”

Zhang Yang smiled, "I haven't eaten anything, and there are still some noodles left over from making dumplings last time at home, let's go home and make dumplings to eat." ”

"Okay."

There are not many pedestrians along the road, and after the curfew, there will be no more pedestrians on the streets.

Zhang Yang glanced at the direction of the palace, the palace under the dark night was like a beast preparing to eat people.

Back at home, Zhang Yang skillfully chopped the meat filling, and Aunt Wang brought some wild vegetables over, just in time to use wild vegetables and pork to make meat filling.

The dumplings were put into the pot, and Li Yue also washed the dishes and chopsticks and prepared a small bowl of vinegar.

Sitting at the dinner table, Li Yue looked forward to the dumplings coming out of the pot as soon as possible, and looked up at the stars in the sky.

Zhang Yang brought out the two bowls of hot dumplings, and there were still a lot of them in the pot for the two aunts.

Li Yue can eat a mouthful of dumplings in two bites, and she chews in her mouth, "I also taught my mother how to cook." ”

Zhang Yang poured a small bowl of wine, and also poured a small bowl for his daughter-in-law, there is not much harm in drinking in moderation, and it is appropriate to give his daughter-in-law a little drink.

I'm afraid that she will become a little drunkard in the future, and the problem of good wine will not get used to her.

"You can't cook well yourself, and you still teach your mother to cook?"

"My wife said that she didn't know what it meant to stir-fry, and besides, my wife was also from a famous family before, and her cooking skills have never been very good."

"I saw it when I was eating." Zhang Yang sighed while eating dumplings.

"I can cook porridge and stir-fry some meat dishes now."

"Heh, fried meat dishes?"

"Sooner or later, I'll learn it." Li Yue took another big bite of the dumplings.

At night, Zhang Gongjin's wife was holding a book and was reading, "Old fellow, I didn't expect your disciple to write such an interesting story." ”

After speaking, she handed the book to Zhang Gongjin.

The books are bound with paper, which is expensive in Chang'an.

Hundreds of sheets of paper are bound together, and the price alone is quite expensive.

"It's not a light gift." Zhang Gongjin looked at it page by page, this is a very interesting story, and some of the episodes are also very fascinating.

The more Zhang Gongjin looked, the more interested he became.

His wife cleaned up the house, and since that Zhang Yang came, the old guy talked more and laughed more.

After reading the story on the book, Zhang Gongjin said meaningfully, "I'm afraid this book will cause trouble." ”

"Her Royal Highness the princess didn't pass on this book, saying that she also gave the queen a volume."

"Looks like this kid is going to be in trouble."

Zhang Gongjin's wife sighed, "It's not early, you should rest early." ”

The rainy season in Guanzhong is over, and the sudden scorching sun catches people off guard, and the weather in the past few days makes people feel very good, hot and cold are very comfortable.

But today's sunshine is inexplicably vicious, making people dare not stand in the sun for a long time.

In a school field in Chang'an City, Li Shimin took Li Chengqian to look at the soldiers and soldiers of the Weifu here.

Looking at the neat queue and shouts, this scene alone makes people's hearts boil.

"The lantern made by Zhang Yang really can't send people to the sky, this is the result of me exchanging hundreds of lives for it."

Hearing his father say this, Li Chengqian was surprised that he had spent hundreds of lives for this result.

Li Shimin said with a smile, "Although it can't really go to the sky, but it is good for the army, when the big lantern goes to the sky, send someone who can control the big lantern, as long as the wind drifts near the enemy camp, you can find out the enemy's movements, Zhang Yang can also be regarded as a contribution to Sheji." ”

Li Chengqian was still immersed in the surprise that his father had used hundreds of lives, "Does my father still want to use this big lantern?" ”

Li Shimin bowed his head and said, "Yan Liben has been studying how to make people land smoothly from the air recently. ”

Li Chengqian sighed, "Can I use a rope?" ”

Li Shimin still shook his head, "I have tried this method, dozens of people died, and one fell halfway." ”

Li Chengqian didn't dare to ask any further.

In front of him were the soldiers who were practicing in the school field, watching the Da Mo knives dancing, Li Shimin's heart was very satisfied.

Yi Nan Khan has not stopped recently, and his leg injury has healed quite smoothly.

But he was so impatient to get down to the ground that he had to walk, and he fell again.

This old injury has not healed and new injuries have been added, and it will not be so easy to return to Mobei for a while.

While the two were playing chess, Xu Jingzong said, "If this goes on like this, this Yinan Khan is really going crazy." ”

Zhang Yang sighed, "Let him be, the more anxious he is, the more he can't go back." ”

Milk powder made by the Turks has also been delivered.

Li Tai saw that these milk powders were already clumped, took out a few pieces and put them in a bowl, and then brewed and took a sip, "The milk flavor is not very strong, it is far worse than the milk tea we make now." ”

Then Li Tai took out the milk powder that had clumped and put it directly into his mouth to eat, "This way the milk taste is good enough." ”

Zhang Yang and Xu Jingzong are playing chess.

Seeing that he didn't care about himself, Li Tai asked again, "Brother-in-law, why does this taste so bad?" ”

Zhang Yang took a deep breath and almost fell into Xu Jingzong's words, this kid is really yin enough to play chess, and he almost fell into his trap by accident.

Glancing at Li Tai, Zhang Yang first defused Xu Jingzong's offensive, "King Wei will take you down, in fact, you can mix these with caramel to make a kind of sugar, and the taste will be very good." ”

Hearing this, Li Tai's eyes lit up, "Why didn't you say it earlier." ”

Xu Jingzong watched his pawn being eaten twice, and after the offensive in front of him was defused, he fell into contemplation again.

Zhang Yang looked at the chessboard with his hands, "I also thought of it temporarily, so it's called toffee." ”

"Milk candy? I'll try it when I go back. ”

After walking a few more steps, Xu Jingzong watched his chess being checkmated, and shook his head helplessly, "After all, it's still a bad move." ”

You must be careful when dealing with Xu Jingzong, this kid is very good at setting up tricks.

Compared with Zhang Gongjin's chess, Zhang Gongjin's chess path is much weirder, and sometimes he can only rely on experience to understand the opponent's intentions.

As long as you are careful to deal with Xu Jingzong, it is not difficult to deal with.

Zhang Yang glanced at the clumping milk powder in the jar, this is the first sample sent by the Turks, "The clumping is because of the humidity, which will also make the milk taste much worse, the original milk powder is a very fine powder, but there is always moisture in the air, once it is stained with moisture, it is also a normal phenomenon for the milk powder to clump, of course, it will also affect the taste." ”

The first thing made in Chang'an City is real goat's milk, the milk taste is natural and sufficient, and the tea brewing is lubricated and can also neutralize the original greasy milk.

Li Tai pondered, "Is there any way to solve it?" ”

Zhang Yang sorted out the chessboard and whispered, "It's actually simple to solve, the soap I gave His Royal Highness King Wei is a very absorbent thing, wrapped in a small bag of paper and cloth to ensure that it will not leak out, put it in a jar, and seal the jar with sealing wax, just do it." ”
