Chapter 135: Good and Evil
The corners of Wen Xian's mouth moved slightly, and she turned her head to look at Zhu Qing, but found that the corners of Zhu Qing's mouth flashed with mockery.
She was thoughtful, but she didn't see anything.
In fact, she knew that there was not much polished rice in this pot of stewed rice. Usually, it is polished rice with brown rice, and then there is a pot of broth.
This time, I chopped the meat and vegetables and cooked them together with the rice, and there was a lot of taro in them, but the cost was not high.
But it is very real, it is meat and white flour cakes, and it can buy people's hearts.
And most of these things were probably taken out from Zhu Qing's family.
The people of the island must know about this, but they will only thank the ethereal sea god and Zhu Si, who represents the sea god.
Thank you Zhu Si is okay, after all, she is also a member of the Zhu family, but some people will not appreciate it.
There are several sacrificial ceremonies every year, and most of each one is subsidized by the Zhu family, except for the things that the village usually gives.
They posted so much, but they couldn't get a word of thanks, which is indeed chilling.
And Wen Xian also felt once again how much the Zhu family attached importance to Zhu Li's daughter.
I saw Zhu Li with a faint smile on his face, and raised his hand generously and said: "Everyone, please get up, Lord Poseidon will bless Sun Island with smooth wind and rain, peace and joy." ”
Only she knows the bitterness in her heart, and now she represents the god of the sea, she can't have children's personal feelings, she can't remember her family, and she can't be honest and upright to fight for her family.
Soon, the white flour cake was pasted for a round. Zhu Li took the spatula handed over by Zhu Qing, shoveled a bowl of stewed rice, took a cake to the altar to worship the god of the sea.
After that, it was Zhu Li's maids who cooked for the villagers one by one.
A big pot of stewed rice, regardless of men, women and children, everyone has a bowl full of stewed rice and a cake.
All the dishes and chopsticks are provided by Tanah Lot Temple, and everyone must finish the meal on the spot, and then wash the dishes and chopsticks and put them in the designated place.
On the one hand, this regulation is to facilitate the collection of dishes and chopsticks, but more importantly, it is to allow the villagers to have a full meal.
After all, the food at the festival was better, and they were worried that these people would not be willing to eat it, so they took it home and divided it into several meals.
Or, when you take it back, some people can eat it and some people can't.
For example, the old man and the old lady who gobbled up in the corner, and the little daughter-in-law who was wronged and shared a bowl with the child.
Some people are even more ruthless, directly snatching all the food from their daughters' hands, and waiting for the men in the family to finish eating, and then let them pick up the leftovers to eat.
Fortunately, everyone has enough food, and those who are bullied can still get a few bites of food in the end.
Although most of the rest of the rice is not meaty, it still smells of meat.
"There are people on the island who prefer sons over daughters?" Wen Xian looked at Aunt Zhu puzzled and asked, "This is still at the sacrificial ceremony, and they still dare to do such a thing?" ”
Doesn't it say that there is faith in the god of the sea? This is still in the Tanah Lot Temple, in front of the Poseidon, and he dares to bully people?
Wen Xian said that she was very puzzled, these people are very contradictory.
Aunt Zhu seemed to be accustomed to it, and she looked down on those people, but she still explained: "The sea god is in charge of major affairs and principles, and he doesn't care about this kind of family affairs." ”
There are many injustices in the world, and if everyone is in charge, the sea god will be exhausted to death.
Wen Xian's eyebrows jumped slightly, and the corners of her mouth moved slightly: "I don't care about family affairs?" ”
If the people have faith in their hearts, shouldn't they do everything according to the rules?
How can you believe in the god of the sea in great things, but you don't believe in family affairs?
asked her to say that if there is really a sea god in this world, then he has to take care of all family affairs or village affairs.
Aunt Zhu sighed and said, "Faith cannot be eaten as food, when you have nothing or are hungry. Those who have evil in their hearts will jump out and do evil. ”
Sometimes people's hearts are more terrible than ghosts, and when the wind and rain are good, they worship the sea god and the blessing division.
But when the mountains and rivers are really exhausted, I'm afraid that even the sea god himself will not work.
Wen Xian nodded, agreeing with her words, it seems that the family wishes to see it more thoroughly than anyone else.
In her opinion, whether it is the love of the family for their daughter, or their transparent ideas, they are very admirable.
……
Wen Xian didn't know how many people were hungry at today's sacrifice, but she knew that many people came to her to seek medical advice.
Wen Xian gave them needles one by one. But before the needle was pricked, she also charged a fee.
After all, most of these people who have eaten enough are robbing their families of food. For such a person, she is worried that she will not be able to collect the return fee in the future.
During this period, some people were really arguing about playing scoundrels, saying that Wen Xian promised that he would not charge for medical treatment.
In this regard, Wen Xian just smiled coldly and fulfilled them. Only talk about the symptoms, don't do it.
But the problem can't be solved without doing anything, and the troublemakers have to scold and pay the fee first, and then wait for Wen Xian to administer the needle.
finally sent everyone away, Wen Xian didn't even eat dinner, she just wanted to lie still.
At the meal of the sacrificial ceremony, she was really not hungry for a day. No wonder those who grabbed food and finally came to see a doctor.
Early the next morning, Zhu Qing came to the hospital early, asked Wen Xian to say goodbye, and asked Wen Xian if she wanted to go out of the island to go shopping.
Wen Xian, who was yawning all day, came to her senses in an instant.
She was surprised: "Out of the island with you?" ”
In fact, she had thought about going out of the island to go around, but not now.
Now that they have only come to Sun Island and have no roots, what if something big happens at home after she leaves.
Zhu Qing nodded and said, "That's right, out of the island." The recipes you give are very detailed, but different people make different dishes. So, I'd like to ask you to go with you to the outside of the island and teach the restaurant cooks. ”
If Wen Xian personally demonstrates the chef in his restaurant, the taste of the dishes he wants to make will be more authentic and get twice the result with half the effort.
"Well, you make me think about it." Wen Xian lowered her eyes and began to calculate.
Her appearance is unrecognizable to others, but the important ministers of the court in the past can recognize it.
At the beginning of the fall of Great Qin, although many courtiers died, they did not die, and many of them took refuge in the thieves.
If she stumbles into her by mistake, someone recognizes her outside, but I don't know what will happen.
She raised her eyes and said, "I won't go, if the cooks over there can't learn, let them come to the island to learn alone."
They're professional, maybe they make it better than mine. ”
When it really doesn't work, she will think about going outside.
Zhu Qing didn't force her, only pondered for a moment and said, "It's okay, let them study it by themselves first." If it still doesn't work, I'll bring two of them back to study together. ”
"Okay." Wen Xian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "By the way, how many days are you going to go this time, when will you return to the island?" ”
Zhu Qing replied: "This time I went out, and the time for my return has not yet been decided." But the time will probably be a lot longer, not as fast as last time. ”
This time, he plans to go on a tour of the store. After patrolling all the shops, I was ready to set off for the trip.
