Chapter 18 This thing, Ke Ji Simin
"Chen Xuan, a villager from Dongshi Village, meet Lord Lu!" Chen Xuan lowered his head and clenched his fists, and said without humility or arrogance.
Tie Zhu and the others also followed Chen Xuan to do the same.
In ancient times, the imperial dynasty was a social form with strict hierarchies composed of family ties.
The emperor himself is the common people of Li and the patriarch of thousands of families, so the people are also called the people, and the people also call the emperor "official" or "everyone", which is the meaning of the patriarch.
Even the magistrates of the Daning Dynasty were called parent officials.
In this way, the etiquette derived from it also has very strict rules, and there can be no mistakes.
Like Chen Xuan, he can only salute with his fists and represent himself, without any fame, just a white ding.
It is worth mentioning that the generals of the Daning Dynasty also held their fists.
Therefore, this kind of etiquette also has the meaning of showing that you are a vulgar person.
Only when the scholar salutes, is it a bow.
Clasp your hands in front of your chest, usually with your left hand out, and your left and right thumbs up, straight ahead.
And when the right hand is outside, it is usually a gesture made when there is a funeral at home, or when you simply want to humiliate someone!
"Say, what's your name?!"
Lu Ganglun, who was originally in an irritable mood, was stunned for a moment when he heard Chen Xuan's self-introduction, and asked Chen Xuan's identity.
"Grass man Chen Xuan, I've seen Lord Lu." Chen Xuan introduced himself again.
Chen Xuan!!
Lu Ganglun, who heard this name, finally reacted, who was this white, thin, immature young man in front of him.
Lu Ganglun's expression couldn't help but be much gentler, and said: "It turned out to be Chen Xuan, these days, you have become famous, but this official has already heard of it. ”
If it weren't for Chen Xuan, who had been relieving the displaced people with sugar water, the displaced people incident in Houshan City would only be more difficult to help, and he, the county government, would also be unable to point out that he would be washed away by the displaced people who broke out due to hunger.
Lu Ganglun is still very grateful to Chen Xuan, who he has never met before, and has long wanted to meet this Bai Ding.
In his eyes, this is a wonderful person who does not care about personal gains and losses, and has a good and charitable character.
"Come, give me a seat!"
Lu Ganglun asked someone to bring Chen Xuan and brought a wooden bench.
This kind of honor, if he was replaced by other Bai Ding, he had already been flattered and panicked, and Chen Xuan was only a little nervous, so he sat down.
Not arrogant or impatient, calm as a well!
This was Lu Ganglun's second impression of Chen Xuan, nodded appreciatively, and asked, "Chen Xuan, you said that you have a way to solve problems for me, but I don't know what way to do it?" ”
Chen Xuan said with a smile: "Lord Lu, Xiaomin's methods are all outside the yamen, and I ask Lord Lu for permission to move it in." ”
"Accurate!"
Lu Ganglun couldn't wait.
Chen Xuan glanced at the iron pillars behind him, and the latter immediately went out and carried in the two large baskets placed outside the yamen.
Seeing these two of them, Lu Ganglun got up, took the initiative to step forward, and looked at them with curiosity.
Chen Xuan was no longer selling Guanzi, and lifted the burlap covering it.
"Lord Lu, please look!"
Suddenly, a rusty smell came to his face, making Lu Ganglun nauseous, and the entire back room was filled with this smell.
All along, the elegant and calm beautiful woman also pinched her nose and waved her hand to dispel the smell.
"Chen Xuan, what are you doing with such a lowly thing as bracken?"
Looking at the houttuynia in the basket, Lu Ganglun, who was holding back his gagging, asked with a gloomy face, if it wasn't for what Chen Xuan did before, which made him feel good, he would have taken Chen Xuan down and locked him in the dungeon.
Chen Xuan pointed to the basket and said, "Lord Lu, this kind of lowly thing can help the people!" ”
"Wild words!"
Lu Ganglun was annoyed.
This thing, not to mention people eating it, is disgusting even if it smells for a while.
If it was used to relieve the homeless, those hungry and resentful homeless people would have entered the county government and cut him down as a county official.
Seeing Chen Xuan, he was still calm and relaxed, but the beautiful woman said: "Official, this Chen Xuan dares to take out such a lowly thing as bracken, and his face still does not change, it must be his own thinking, and please calm your anger and listen to him." ”
"Good, good, good!"
"You say it carefully, if you can't say that you are ugly, the official will definitely want you to look good!"
Lu Ganglun gritted his teeth, stayed away from Houttuynia cordata, and sat back in his chair.
The words just now had made Chen Xuan understand the identity of the beautiful woman, first looked at the beautiful woman, bowed his head to express his gratitude, and then said: "Please also ask Lord Lu to borrow salt, rice vinegar, dogwood, and wasabi." ”
Wasabi means wasabi in ancient times.
Lu Ganglun was confused, but he still called the cook and brought these seasonings.
Chen Xuan is also called the kitchen lady and brings other kitchen utensils.
In this way, in front of Lu Ganglun, he carried a kitchen knife, cut off the houttuynia cordata, and put it in a porcelain bowl.
That earthy smell is an instant hit!
But with the addition and pickling of rice vinegar and coarse salt, most of this earthy smell has disappeared.
Lu Ganglun, who was breathing freely, got up, and when he saw this novel approach, his eyes flashed with surprise: "The taste is gone......
With rice vinegar and salt, he can get rid of the earthy smell of bracken, which he has never heard of before.
"Lord Lu, this bracken can't be eaten now."
Seeing Lu Ganglun, who wanted to lift the chopstick, Chen Xuan dissuaded him, and put the dogwood and mustard into the houttuynia cordata and marinated it for half a quarter of an hour.
In this era, there is no fine seasoning such as red oil, and the appearance of this plate of houttuynia is not very appetizing.
However, with the spicy smell of dogwood and mustard, the earthy smell has been completely suppressed.
As soon as the marinade was completed, Lu Ganglun couldn't wait to taste it.
Suddenly, the spicy smell and the unique taste of Houttuynia cordata after removing the earthy smell exploded in his tongue bud, revealing an incredible look.
"This kind of lowly thing, after pickling, is refreshing and delicious!"
Lu Ganglun was surprised.
