As soon as Huo Quai's words came out, almost everyone hooked their heads and stared at the table in front of them very intently, as if those pine wood lines contained some kind of shocking heaven and earth avenue.

Especially Cao Xiang, who had already reached out to his waist and pulled his special "anti-pumping suit" to his buttocks, waist and other parts, waiting to be pumped to death by his uncle......

Unexpectedly, after waiting for a few breaths, Liu Che didn't seem to be angry, but looked at Huo Quzhi with a smile: "Go sick, you still care about me, and besides, the nature of the young man has never been extinguished, he dares to speak and do, he is upright and simple, and he is very happy."

It seems that in the future, we will have to call a few young people to accompany us at this dinner table, otherwise, even the most delicious food in the world will be eaten in the twilight, which will be too boring. ”

When these words came out, Huo Qu was stunned for a moment, quickly bowed down to thank him, and strode back to his seat, secretly relieved.

Even if he was stubborn in this regard, he gradually realized that his impulse just now almost caused another catastrophe......

However, the ministers in the seat had different faces, and although none of them spoke, a dull aura permeated the air, but it was already very obvious.

The emperor's words, I'm afraid they mean something else, right?

For example, may you be dissatisfied with the old sticks above the court, and tired of the attitude that has always been old? Or is it that the emperor has already begun to plan to let Cao Xiang, Huo Quzhi and other Huangkou children appear on stage?

The atmosphere became dreary again.

Liu Che always maintained a gentle smile, and turned his head to look at Princess Pingyang: "Sister, you said that Cao Xiang has invented a stone mill that can move stone mills and stone mills without the strength of humans and animals, why don't I believe it?" ”

Princess Pingyang smiled: "I also don't believe it, but Cao Xiang said that he has already tried it and promised that there is no problem, so my sister has to be skeptical."

However, as the mother of Pingyang Hou Cao Xiang, I can only think partially that what he said about waterwheels, water mills, water mills, and water mills should be fine.

Well, why don't we make a bet? ”

Liu Che stroked his palms and laughed: "Okay, okay, I haven't played any money for many years since I became the emperor, I'm happy tonight, I might as well take a gamble... By the way, Prime Minister, Da Nong Ling, Imperial Doctor, let's bet together, how about it?

The big gamble is sad, the small gamble is pleasant, let's take the good land as a bet.

I bet first, the 30,000 acres of fertile land opposite Weishui in the above Lin Yuan, the farm tools that Cao Xiang, Huo Quai, and Yang Chuan will show tomorrow are useless, hahaha. ”

Princess Pingyang said with a smile: "Okay, since Your Majesty is interested, I, who is my sister, will also support the field, and I will also bet 30,000 acres of fertile land, which can be converted into money, grain, livestock or something afterwards."

Of course, as a mother, I don't want my sons and nephews to lose money, so I have to bet on Cao Xiang, Huo Quzhi and Yang Chuan. ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, he was 30,000 acres of fertile land, and he said that it was a small gamble......

The ministers of civil and military affairs present understood in their hearts that the emperor was betting and playing with money, and he obviously wanted to give those three young people the opportunity to make a wave of 'welfare', right?

Of course, by the way, letting the ministers stand in line and express their stance is naturally the meaning of the topic.

As a result, everyone had to reluctantly 'make a statement', but it was a bet of 3,000 acres, 5,000 acres, and 800 acres; Without exception, everyone can only bet on the emperor's side: bet on the three people to lose.

As a palace man 'sang' and shouted in a decent voice, 'Buy and leave, buy and leave', even Cao Xiang couldn't help jumping out, rubbing his hands vigorously, hehe smiled and wanted to bet, but was scolded by Liu Che: "Get out!" ”

Cao Xiang began to play tricks, and said with a smile: "Uncle, just let Xiang'er play once, don't you know, since I was sent to Yangchuan's Zhuangzi, that guy has taken care of me to death, and he is not allowed to molest women or play money;

Tsk, Xiang'er is about to suffocate to death! ”

Cao Xiang's words made Liu Che laugh, and he said repeatedly: "Okay, good management, good management, in my opinion, in the future, you will live here for a long time, and Chang'an City will try not to come." ”

Cao Xiang shouted grievances for a while, but in exchange for Liu Che's scolding, he almost carried the whip to death.

The ministers laughed too.

Pingyang Hou, a straw bag, bullies men and women on weekdays, and does all kinds of evil, which is simply the biggest scourge of the Great Wall City; Unexpectedly, it was very happy to be assigned to such a small farm.

As a result, everyone's enthusiasm for betting is even higher.

Even Prime Minister Gongsun Hong, who has always been picking and searching, waved his hand and directly added 10,000 acres of high-grade fertile land.

Just when everyone was placing bets, the most embarrassing people in the seat were naturally Huo Quzhi and Zhang Tang: these two people are almost poor, not to mention thousands of acres or tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, and even their own food and clothing are a little stretched......

At this time, Cao Xiang carefully observed the emperor's face, and found that when his uncle looked at him, he seemed to blink his eyes very vaguely? He had a rough idea of it.

"Hahaha, look at these big dogs, I haven't seen such a bully," Cao Xiang jumped into the middle of the field and shook his huge head, "Who is that, Huo Quai, you are my cousin and my good brother."

In this way, Ben Hou borrowed 10,000 acres of fertile land from you to bet, do you dare to bet on Ben Hou to win? ”

Huo Quzhi thought about it, and said angrily: "Say it in advance, I don't have the money to pay you back." ”

Cao Xiang waved his hand and said with a very bold smile: "Isn't it just 10,000 acres of fertile land, if you win, it will become 30,000 or 40,000 acres, even if you lose, it doesn't matter, there are no other things in Benhou, it's just that people are stupid and have a lot of money." ”

So, Huo Qubing did not hesitate to 'borrow' Cao Xiang's 10,000 acres of land and bet on Cao Xiang's side.

Then, after talking badly, laughing and scolding, coaxing and deceiving, Cao Xiang forcibly lent Zhang Tang 3,000 acres of fertile land, and naturally bet on his side again......

"Ah, I'm comfortable, it's a pity that Yang Chuan is not here, otherwise I can win some good land with me."

Cao Xiang finally ended his 'gag', bowed down in a serious manner, and said to Liu Che: "Uncle, since everyone has bet, the question is, there is no treasure official?" ”

Liu Che looked left and right, and found that except for himself, he didn't seem to be suitable for the treasure official, because this big gamble, the total of the zeros and zeros, I am afraid that it will exceed 200,000 acres of fertile land.

Whoever sits in the bank will definitely lose money.

Based on his understanding of Cao Xiang, this guy has always been the master who only takes advantage and does not suffer losses......

"Okay, then let the big farmer order Zheng sit in the village at that time," Liu Che said quietly, "Anyway, all you have come out of are farm tools, which just happen to be under the jurisdiction of the big farmer order." ”

Da Nong Ling Zheng was stunned at the time, and hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the stakes are too big, and Da Nong Ling can't afford to pay for it......"

At this moment, a team of palace people entered the door with food and began to put each desk on it.

Liu Che took the opportunity to wave his hand, and said with a smile: "Don't shirk the big farmer's order, maybe I will win you tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, come and come, want to eat, hey, Yang Chuan, this stinky boy, wants to starve to death?" ”

As a strange aroma spread, everyone's eyes were immediately attracted by the food in front of them, and naturally no one paid attention to the lamentation of the big farmer Ling Zheng at that time.

I saw that on the table in front of each person, there was only a pine plate, four small bowls, four small plates, and a large bowl, which were placed very neatly and exquisitely, and I couldn't find any etiquette faults.

Looking at the Chinese food on the plate, it is nothing more than soy milk, tofu brain, tofu mixed with shallots, steamed eggs with shrimp and tofu, home-style tofu, boiled pork slices stewed tofu, fried tofu shreds, etc., white, green, red, golden and crispy, very eye-catching.

"This is a delicacy made from soybeans?"

Looking at this plate of 'tofu sketches', all the ministers of civil and military affairs present were in high spirits, but at the same time, they were very puzzled, soybeans were ground into soybean milk, bean noodles, and bean dregs, which everyone can understand.

But if it is said that it is cooked into white, delicate and tender, fragrant tofu brain, tofu, why does it sound a little mysterious?

"I heard a few days ago that in the area of Ximen Street in Chang'an City, Zhang Tang's tofu workshop cooked the world's first-class food, and I still don't believe it, but now it seems that soybeans can really be used as a staple food." Prime Minister Sun Hong sighed.

"Well, this thing is white but not greasy, the bean fragrance is fresh, and it is really cooked from soybeans." Danong Ling Zheng put his nose up at that time, sniffed it a few times, and shook his head and said.

“……”

……

Just when Liu Che, Princess Pingyang, and the ministers tasted 'Yang's Tofu', Sister Leopard came back.

Obviously, Yang Chuan's fiefdom was full of veteran killers who had experienced a hundred battles, as well as hundreds of large mastiffs, and Sister Leopard was also taken aback, and it took a lot of effort to hide in Tibet before slipping back into Zhuangzi.

"Sister Leopard, what's going on?"

As soon as they met, Yang Chuan felt that Sister Leopard's state was not quite right, and kept rubbing his legs, seemingly a little excited and a little shy, could it be that he had gone out to get a partner in the past few days?

Moving a small stool to sit at the kitchen door, Yang Chuan gently stroked Sister Leopard's soft hair, looked at the swarthy Qin Ling in the distance, like an ancient divine beast, and said softly: "Sister Leopard, are you going to get a partner?" ”

"Meow Woo ......"

Sister Leopard stretched her waist and rubbed her furry head on Yang Chuan's legs, her eyes were half-squinted, and she also looked at Qinling in the distance, seemingly a little dazed and confused, which made Yang Chuan laugh for a while.

Sure enough, spring is coming.

Yang Chuan sighed, took a bowl of wild chrysanthemum tea and drank it slowly, feeling that such a day was really good, there was a field, a kitchen, and Sister Leopard by his side......

"I'm not full, can I make a few more side dishes?" Suddenly, a gloomy voice sounded.

In the middle of the night, who else is there besides Cui Jiu's old thief?

"I haven't eaten a plate of tofu sketches?" Yang Chuan said a little angrily, "In the middle of the night, the servants have already rested, how can I give a few side dishes?"

One thing to say, Uncle Cui Jiu, this person has to control his diet when he is old, especially when he eats at night, he is easy to be obese and ...... three highs."

Glancing at Cui Jiu's tall and thin appearance with a piece of ragged linen, Yang Chuan shut up.

Cui Jiu clasped his hands in his sleeves, looked at Sister Leopard with a focused expression, and suddenly said, "Your sister is pregnant, don't you give me some food?" As for me, I'll eat with it. ”

Sister Leopard is pregnant?

Yang Chuan was taken aback and checked it carefully, but he didn't figure it out after all, after all, he had only been out for three or five days, and even if he was pregnant, he couldn't check it, right?

He looked at Cui Jiu with some doubts: "Are you trying to eat and drink and lie to me?" ”

I went home at half past nine, and I hurried to finally code out the first chapter of today......

Spring has come, and the willow trees on the banks of the Yellow River have become very white, long, and plump...... Well, the cook was wrong.

(End of chapter)
