In the days of early winter, the first light snow fell from the sky to the world, flying, and as soon as it fell to the ground, the roof turned into a puddle of water. The poultry on the Zhuangzi trembled and did not want to go out of the den. The old yellow dog did not. Knowing where to get some rag slivers and some hay, spread the nest by yourself.
Except for the evergreen Song Bo, there seems to be no trace of green in the whole world. I can't hear the frogs in summer and autumn, and the chirping of the little swallows are missing. There is only mud on the ground and no mud can be heard. fragrance.
The sericulturers cook the silk, and some will spun it into a thread, while some will leave it directly. This year the county does not need to hand in anything, and the harvest is less, but life is a little easier.
The people selling cold skins in the county can no longer see it. The pancake and fruit business seems to be better. The people selling candied haws also come out early. From dawn to dark, the flakes of rock sugar will not melt too much, compared to white sugar. It's much stronger, and you can feel the crunchy taste in a bite of sweet and sour bite.
The workers on the Xiaoluoshui Wharf are busier than the previous days. Many businessmen who want to make a fortune in the winter are working hard to transport the goods they can receive while the river is still not freezing. go out.
Several large shelves were supported there with ropes on the top and hooks below, which made the terminal's throughput a lot faster, which made the business of the restaurants and shops next to the terminal go crazy.
The gifted scholars and beautiful ladies seem to feel that there is nothing to write about in poems at this time, and some of them shrink at home thinking about what to write about in the heavy snow in winter. The only place where many talented scholars are willing to stay is between Shuiyun.
Wang Juan deliberately used one sentence in a word on it, which attracted a lot of people before it snowed, "Who said that the chilly clothes are cold, but the sky is cool for a long time."
Others don’t know where this sentence comes from, and they don’t know the first sentence is that young people don’t know the feeling of sadness. Many talented people think of these two sentences directly. When it is cold, some poor people have no clothes to wear, and some people are admiring them. This kind of scenery, literati, always like to pin their emotions in the scenery.
In addition, Shuiyunjian has introduced a new dish, which makes them willing to come and taste it, and feel good while eating.
It's not the cicada's sound that the silkworm is in the heart, but the autumn silkworm is dead.
That’s how the name of the dish comes out. To put it simply, it’s three characters, and the silk is full.
Zhang Xiaobao didn't put his thoughts on this aspect. Wang Juan's own idea, from the fact that customers order this dish one after another, is not bad.
Originally, silkworm pupae were not eaten by ordinary people after the silk was drawn. The dealers or kept them for a few days to eat. If they couldn't eat them, they had to throw them away. Wang Juan specially thought of this method for them and changed Li Xiaoyou's sentence.
That’s how Wang Juan commented on Li Shangyin. He said that reading his poems is more of sadness, like Jinse, nice or nice, but there is always a kind of poignant beauty. Wang Juan likes the sentence of the sea, moon and pearl with tears, while Zhang Xiaobao is love. Listen to Chuang Shengxiao dreaming of butterflies.
While saying two sentences, Wang Juan also asked Zhang Xiaobao, "How is it? Did I spell the two sentences very well?"
"Generally speaking, it’s not as good as the three female voices in the Chinese department I’ve heard before. I didn’t understand anything at that time. They were talking poems there, saying that one poem was very good, especially two of them. Sentence, this love can be turned into a remembrance, but I can't help but let the flowers fall. I was shocked to be a man of heaven at the time, and later..."
"Later, I discovered that this was a sentence in a poem and a word, right?" Wang Juan asked with a smile.
Zhang Xiaobao shook his head, "No, then I thought, if the person surnamed Yan took up Li's body, would he be able to write a similar picture of Maoling Qiuyu and withered green trees last night?"
"Zhang Xiaobao, can't you speak with morality?" Wang Juan asked with a smile.
"I'm serious, do you eat the black thing in the silkworm chrysalis?" Zhang Xiaobao said solemnly.
"If you don't eat it, who will eat the internal organs? Have you ever seen how silkworm pupa looks like after it hasn't been threaded?" Wang Juan asked.
Zhang Xiaobao nodded: "Well, someone gave me more than fifty catties of cocoon pupae when I was young. A woman, in her thirties, has to adopt a younger sister as a daughter. Unfortunately, she was not adopted. I always think she is the most beautiful. When I ate it, one dropped, and when the spring started, it turned into a moth that big, white, and burned it for me to eat."
"Oh, I knew I would save some for roasting. As long as you say it is brave to eat, then there will be many men to eat, especially when there are beautiful women." Wang Juan looked regretful. .
…
How can Tian Han know? But complained about the late winter. Shan Yi Shou charcoal red, ask who eats the scones.
"Father, it's here. Look, it's cold, the water isn't freezing, they are all sweaty, and they have a lot of money every time. Father, a few days ago, I heard people say that they were sent from Zhang’s family. Many seedlings bearing cucumbers have been planted in the backyard of Yamen.
They are trying to please Dad, so why don't they take this opportunity to tell him that Zhangjiazhuang lied about auspiciousness, otherwise, how could it be possible this year? Then let people sneak into their village to learn how to grow cucumbers that winter. "
At the wharf, Jia Weiran, who had just bought a scones with meat in it for two cents at Qiaotou, said to a wealthy person next to him.
The two of them didn't bring any entourage with them, and the clothes they wore were not luxurious. They walked slowly here, and snow fell from time to time, so they didn't care about it, just as they were no different from ordinary people.
The person who was called father by Jia Weiran was a new county magistrate, and he didn't know what he thought, so he decided to come over for a little service, and a few days before taking office, he ran to Sanshui County.
Since Jia Weiran went back to report the letter last time, he came back immediately, not in contact with those former friends, only watching and listening at the dock, at this time he finally did not let him waste all that effort, and explained the situation here in detail. Listen with father.
County magistrate Jia glanced at his son, then at the lively scene on the dock, and said, “It’s too late. Someone has already handed in the recipe for growing cucumbers this winter a few days ago. Zhang Yongcheng has already been known to many people. This idea won't make any sense, and it will get you angry."
"Ah? It's been reported? His Zhang family is uncomfortable and stupid? Now that he knows it, why do he send cucumber seedlings to Yamen? When we can't afford cucumbers?"
Jia Weiran didn't expect that his own method of pondering for a few days would be wasted before it was used. Thinking about the cucumbers delivered to the Yamen, he couldn't swallow this breath for a while.
The county magistrate Jia thought a lot and said to his son: "I have reported it. If I want to plant it elsewhere, I have to wait for some time before cucumbers can grow. This recipe can not only grow cucumbers, but also grow some other vegetables. It is not easy to do it, and it needs to be kept together when the bee butterfly is not dead.
The Zhang family is not stupid. If you give up this part of the money, you will have less trouble. How much can you sell cucumbers in winter? What is the value of the pier here in Xiaoluoshui? Don't say it is his two Zhuangzi, even a certain prince, dare to keep this method of growing vegetables in winter? Where do you put the people? "
County magistrate Jia thinks more than his son. Before he came, he knew that this place is not easy to stay. The previous magistrate Cheng did almost all the good things. When he arrived, he could only follow, otherwise the people would not be willing. In other places, the prince is the governor of the state and is close to the capital. If something goes wrong, it is impossible to hide it. Moreover, the two seven-rank scattered officials of the Wang Family can also be handed upwards.
"You can't do it easily, you can't." The magistrate Jia mumbled as he thought about it.
"Father, what the kid said last time is not okay? They sealed four thousand acres, but that piece of land is six thousand acres, and the plot is 2,000 acres privately. The crime is not small, right?" Jia Weiran still didn't want to give up, he always He felt embarrassed at the restaurant that day, even if it was two children, he had to count the children's family.
The county magistrate Jia is still so calm, "You need to go back and look at the documents in the yamen. If it is really occupied, it will be easy to handle. I am afraid that they will not occupy it. There is a dock in Xiao Luoshui, and taxes are paid. I’m not afraid of others looking for trouble on this."
Jia Weiran didn’t know what to say at this time, took a bite of the scone in his hand, swallowed it around in a circle, and suddenly said, “Father, this scone is really good. Yes, buy one for Dad and try it later."
"Well, it's cold. People here can still do business. It's better than being hungry. Otherwise, it won't be easy to do the assessment next year. County Order Cheng does have some ability." County Order Jia wanted to make things more comprehensive. , The local people have a better life, so he can make it easier.
Jia Weiran curled his lips, "Father, where is Cheng County Commander's skill, this scone contains a special seasoning from Zhangjiazhuang, and I don’t know how they make it. It seems that the seasoning is a bit different when you make the same dish. I’ve found someone to taste it, maybe a few can be tasted, but if it’s too much, it won’t work."
"Why is this?" Jia really didn't know.
"The child finds someone to smell the condiment, the person who smells it keeps sneezing, asks someone to taste it, and tells a few things that are easy to taste. If you don’t wait to eat it, your mouth will become numb, and you can’t tell any taste. Specially used those kinds of dishes to make the dishes. If you put too little, the taste is wrong. If you put too much, the taste is wrong, or you have diarrhea or dryness. People who understand it say that this seasoning is also yin and yang."
Jia Weiran feels depressed when he talks about this. The seasoning for fish is absolutely different from that for meat. The scones are also different. There are also special fillings and soups. I don’t know how the Zhuangzi made so much. s method.
When the county magistrate Jia heard this, he thought it was right, and pointed to a place where pancakes and fruits were sold. "Go there and buy a pancake and fruits. I heard people say it was delicious before I came."
"Where is it delicious? It's nothing more than salty sauce and more chopped green onions. It tastes good for poor people." Jia Weiran muttered and walked over there.
"Isn't this brother Jia? I haven't seen him for a few days, why have you been busy with Brother Jia?" Jia Weiran hadn't gotten to the place yet, and a sudden sound next to him was startled.
