Chapter 55
In the northern border, the Tatars had a temporary truce and went to graze. The pasture in summer is in full swing.

The war lasted for more than half a year, and the casualties were not small.Although the poisoning was successful, they did not get much spoils during the battle, and the Daxia people all migrated to the interior.

The second wave of rescue teams and the third wave of people from the capital, and after the integration of the border, there are still nearly 30 people!
The general command was handed over to Xu Shangshu. Yes, Xu Shangshu led the troops to the expedition.Although the Ministers of the Ministry of War in the past dynasties were all civil servants and would not lead soldiers to fight, but Xu Shangshu is both civil and military, and is currently the only minister in the imperial court who has the ability to supervise wars.

When most of the descendants of the Xu family were killed or injured, he was not at ease in handing over the power of supervising the war to others. After all, there were also general soldiers from other families in the northern border, and this was already the most suitable candidate after the game between all parties.

Xu Shangshu mobilized the food, grass and weapons needed for this trip most actively, and launched a counterattack on the fifth day after arriving at the northern border and sorting out the grassland information of the scouts.

The 30 army, except for the tens of thousands left for defense, approached the royal court of the Tatar Khan in an encirclement.Senza Khan's royal court is in Mobei, and he has too many wives, concubines and sons, so he chose the eight most capable ones for him to shepherd and guard all directions.

Before he had time to share with his wives and concubines the jewelry brought back by the harassing Daxia, he received the message that Daxia counterattacked Tatar.After all, there are more than 20 people, and their deeds are obvious.

The Tatar ministries combined have 10,000+ cavalry, and there is no panic about this.Immediately, the nation has a militant factor in its blood, and it is delivered to the door. We are the masters of our territory.

Senza Khan sent news to his sons, arranged the offensive and defensive areas, and waited for the Great Xia Dynasty to attack.

When the border war was about to break out, 1000 people had successfully planted seedlings in the Shuwangfu farm. Except for the first two people who died, none of them died in the later period.The government doctor announced that the vaccination was successful and can be widely used.

The Chengdu Mansion had a vaccine against smallpox, and all the members of the Prince of Shu Mansion had been vaccinated. The news spread quickly.

On whether to inform the little emperor, the staff members have different opinions. Most of them think: there are no good products delivered to the door, and only half-covered ones will be robbed!
In the process of training folk doctors to make vaccinia, the news crossed the river within a few days and was delivered to the Queen Mother.

The Great Xia court was in an uproar. If the news is true, the officers and men of Guan will be saved!As for how to get the vaccine, are so many hidden guards vegetarian?Inoculate the vaccinia quickly, and send it to the north immediately after success.

For a time, cows were more expensive than horses in the suburbs of the capital.

The king of Shu first vaccinated the soldiers in his own barracks, and then opened the vaccination to the citizens.

Each citizen is vaccinated once, and the vaccination fee is 10 renminbi, but they need to be quarantined for 20 days, and the daily isolation fee is 10 renminbi.This is basically a loss-making business, but I am afraid that no one will sign up for free, and a symbolic fee will be more popular.

Ten farms have been separated for vaccination, and one farm can vaccinate 500 people at a time.There are separate isolation rooms in the barracks, and military doctors have also been trained.After planting the seedlings in Shu, they will go to other military camps.

The prince of Shu chewed the dried shrimp he had just received, his cheeks were bulging, and he couldn't stop eating it, it was so delicious!They are reluctant to give it to brothers other than the younger sister, after all, they are not from the same mother.

While chewing, he wrote back to the two, describing in detail the process of his vaccination.It's a pity that the two of them are not in Chengdu Mansion, otherwise the friends can vaccinate the pox together, it is difficult to be the same!I really hate the acne marks on my body that haven't completely disappeared.

It has only been a few days since the two ends of the ship were shipped, and they are extremely fresh.Sunrise and sunset are not overlooked, and the two people with insufficient vocabulary can describe the colors of the sun: persimmon red, salted egg yellow!
Mr. Fan laughed out loud, he can think of anything to eat!The two heads of the family plausibly said: "Sir, food is the most important thing for the people, and what children think about is eating and drinking! Mother often said that if you are not active in eating, you have a problem with your thinking!"

Mr. Fan: Although I do not agree with your point of view, I reluctantly agree that you have the right to say this!
People who look forward to three meals a day, soft-mouthed!Isn't it soft-spoken? On this ship, the crew likes to catch seafood.Every day, Aunt Li has to buy dozens of catties to make her master toss.

In addition to steaming, stir-frying, and boiling, they have recently become obsessed with salt-baking.There is no shortage of large grains of sea salt in coastal cities, and you can buy dozens of catties for three to five dollars.

Salt-baked prawns, salt-baked clams, salt-baked razor clams, salt-baked crabs, and salt-baked conch!

The biggest feature of salt-baked seafood is that it can lock the original sweetness of seafood, making the meat firm and delicious, and the taste more tender and smooth.

Mr. Fan is especially fond of salt-baked conch. The meat is salty and delicious, tender and chewy. He is an old man with good teeth and good taste.

Everyone was also amazed by the food. Such a rough technique can make the ingredients themselves have an extra flavor, which is so enjoyable.

The villagers in the lower reaches of the village with three happy families have no seafood to eat, but the wedding feast of the three couples cannot be sloppy.

Among this group of people, Cuihua's mother, Mrs. Zhang, has the best cooking skills.

Bashu has always called drinking wedding wine as eating nine big bowls. The word "nine" contains auspicious meanings, and there are prayers for "nine sons ascend the imperial examination", "everlasting life", and "nine nine return to one".

Speaking of nine big bowls, they are actually nine kinds of steamed meat dishes: the main course is steamed round dumplings (also commonly known as "fragrant bowls" in other places), steamed salty roasted white (sauced meat with plum vegetables), steamed pork ribs, steamed chicken, Steamed duck, steamed elbow, steamed sweet roasted white (flour glutinous rice under the sandwiched meat), egg hibiscus, steamed fried soft meat (crispy meat), steamed miscellaneous kueh.

Meat and vegetables are abundant and thrifty, and they can come according to the season.

This time Mrs. Zhang was in charge, Father Yuan bought half a pig, Father Hu killed seven or eight pheasants and ducks, and Yuan Laoer and Yuan Laosan also caught a large pot of fish in the river, and used them to feed the villagers. Once the vegetables and eggs that came to cover the maintenance fee were cleaned up, they all worked together.

The three brides never expected that this group of people from Sichuan would be so particular about it, and within a few days they would put together such two tables of good food at the wedding banquet.

Compared with the pasta and stews in the North, the dishes in Sichuan are not so delicious. Even the newlyweds don't care about being shy, and throw off their arms and start working.

The three boys ate so much that their mouths were full of oil. Xiao Chuan asked in a childish voice: "Grandma, when will you marry the eldest brother a wife? These nine big bowls are too delicious!" Everyone laughed.
