I farmed and raised cubs in ancient times

Chapter 29 Juren (Wang Su), Hospitality

That is to say, these two people were admitted to Juren last year, so why didn't they participate in this year's Chunwei, but went to Chuzhou to study?
According to the time calculation, the spring may have already begun, and the two of them missed it.

Although Jiang Zhi was puzzled, she didn't show it. She asked Ye Erlang to sit in the yard with her, and went to cook in the kitchen by herself.

Facing these two strangers who came suddenly, Ye Heng didn't understand why his mother let them in, but he didn't make any noise because of it. Instead, he sat alone on a small bench under the eaves, holding a wooden stick, staring at the two strangers. them.

His idea is very simple, as long as these two dare to rob his mother, he will bite them to death.

My eldest brother came here yesterday and brought fresh mutton and two chickens, as well as some dried tofu, vegetables and fruits.

Just used it today to entertain guests.

The farmhouse is simple, basically everyone who comes is a guest, not to mention that Jiang Zhi is not a stingy person.

She took some fruits and put them on a plate, put them on the table, and said: "You two gentlemen, eat some fruits first to fill your stomach."

Wang Shiqing looked at the good-looking snacks on the table. He and Su Yumin had never seen such fruits when they were in the town before. Could it be that this woman made it herself?
Su Yumin also noticed this, and Wang Shiqing whispered to him.

"Sister-in-law, I didn't expect these two people to be masters. They are all noble people, why are they still begging for food from us?" Ye Xiaomei rolled her eyes to the sky.

She didn't want to see these officials and lords, she just wanted to live a stable life with her family.

"Let's not ask too much about these, just cook some water."

It seemed that these two people did not eat for free. To Jiang Zhi, it didn't matter whether they gave money or not, it was just a matter of adding two pairs of chopsticks.

Jiang Zhi cut the chicken leg meat into small pieces, and she was going to make a simpler Kung Pao Chicken. This dish has been replaced in this era, and the ingredients are basically the same. Since there is no name, Jiang Zhi is tentatively called Kung Pao Chicken. .

In fact, in modern times, Jiang Zhi's cooking skills are not very good. It can only be said that she can't kill people. It is impossible to say that it is delicious.

So in this era, she only needs to pretend a little bit, and she is almost at the same level as the original owner.

After all, it wasn't long before iron pots became popular in this era, and many famous dishes hadn't been developed yet, so the cooking level of the original owner was almost the same as hers.

This is why Jiang Zhi was not obsessed with catering in the beginning, because she was a waste in this regard.

The most uncomfortable thing is that there are no peppers, potatoes, sweet potatoes and other crops here. The lack of pepper alone made her lose a lot of happiness.

Soon there was a smell of vegetables from the kitchen, and Wang Shiqing and Su Yumin's stomachs growled uncontrollably.

"It smells so good." Wang Shiqing couldn't help sighing: "This smell is so familiar, it feels like home."

The kitchen is not far away, Jiang Zhi could hear what they said.

Jiang Zhi was speechless, and started calling her aunt, cooking is home, is she really that old?

These two masters must be several years older than her.

Ah!
Jiang Zhi cursed in her heart.

After frying Kung Pao Chicken, stir-fry dried vegetables, cabbage from the ground, and dried tofu, and the dried rice next to it is also steamed.

This is the legendary Limi rice. Now that she is rich, she can afford dry rice.

If there is rice soup to drink, she will not cook the soup.

These dishes smell pretty good, but as for the taste, that's all, Jiang Zhi thinks the taste is mediocre.

When the food was served, Wang Shiqing and Su Yumin hurriedly got up and saluted to thank them.

"Thank you for your hospitality, my lady."

"It's okay, it's all farm food, the two masters will make do with it." Jiang Zhi nodded and motioned for the two to sit down, you don't have to be polite.

"My lady's dishes are full of color, fragrance, and flavor. How can I just make do with it? It's simply enjoyment." Wang Shiqing couldn't help admiring.

Jiang Zhi: That's it?
"Both female and male guests in our family have to serve the table, you two won't mind?" Jiang Zhi said again.

The two shook their heads one after another, and Su Yumin, who didn't talk much, said, "We don't mind."

Wang Shiqing waved his hand and said: "I don't mind, I don't mind, we are all people who travel far away, and it is a great gift for the lady to accept us for a light meal. How can there be any reason why the host doesn't come to the table?"

Jiang Zhi asked Ye Erlang and Ye Heng to sit on both sides to separate her and Ye Xiaomei from the two men.

The two of them might be starving, and although they were not ugly, they were not slow at all.

Ye Erlang has never met Mr. Juren, but seeing both of them for the first time today, he is inevitably a little nervous, he can't eat after a few mouthfuls, he really wants to get off the table and stay in the corner, but right now he is the only one in the family who can talk The man who talks must prop up the door, he cannot leave.

Ye Xiaomei resisted the urge to roll her eyes, and almost left the table when she couldn't eat.

She really didn't like these two people, not because they suddenly came to have a meal, but because these two people were Juren, and they would definitely participate in Chunwei in the future, and they were very likely to become officials.

With the experience of her previous life, Ye Xiaomei has little affection for officials.

When she was in the county before, if it wasn't because Li Jintian was a good official who loved the people like a son, she wouldn't even want to look at him.

Most of these officials are wolf-hearted things.

Jiang Zhi had already seen Ye Xiaomei's strangeness, but at this time there were outsiders around, so it was not easy for her to intervene.

After the meal, Jiang Zhi removed the leftovers from the table and replaced them with boiling water and uneaten fruits.

Ye Heng sat on Jiang Zhi's lap, nestling in her arms.

"The two of you have just had dinner, so it's not too late to take a break before leaving."

"Thank you, lady, we both have this intention." Su Yumin said.

"It just so happens that I also have a question that I would like to ask you two." Jiang Zhi looked at Su Yumin and said, "Both of you are people who have just passed the scene, and they must be very familiar with the Three Tombs and Five Classics, and they are even more familiar with a subset of classics and history. Now I am puzzled I also hope that the two gentlemen can help me clarify my doubts."

"Ask your wife to come."

Su Yumin did not expect that the woman who had met in the town that day did not ask them for money, but asked them questions.

Hearing this, Jiang Zhixin understood.When she said "three tombs and five classics", the expressions on the faces of these two people were not confused, and Jiang Ling'an asked Ye Heng to read the scriptures before, which shows that at least the history of the pre-Qin period is very likely to be similar to the world in her previous life.

"My concubine is a country woman, and I know very little about it. I want to know about the past dynasties. Daning went through those dynasties before."

"So it's this. From my observation of the lady's words and deeds, it seems that she has read books. I don't know what books the lady has read?" Wang Shiqing said.

"My father was a scholar, but he had read two books in his boudoir, and he could only recognize a few words. The deceased husband was also a scholar." Jiang Zhi said no more.

Only then did Wang Shiqing and Su Yumin notice that Jiang Zhi still had white stripes wrapped around her head, which was a sign of mourning.Wang Shiqing became honest in an instant, he needed to restrain his words, so as not to hurt this poor woman.

　Three tombs, five classics, eight records and nine hills are all classics of the pre-Qin period in China.The sentence "Three Tombs, Five Canons, Eight Suos, and Nine Hills" was first seen in "Zuo Zhuan · Zhao Gong 12 Years". Chu Ling Wang praised Zuo Shi Yixiang: "It is a good history, and my son is good at it. He can read "Three Tombs", "Five Canons" ", "Ba Suo", "Nine Hills"."
