Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

Chapter 116: Mooncake and Crab

As a typical farming civilization, the Chinese civilization is obviously related to the four seasons. The Mid-Autumn Festival is the most important autumn festival in the eyes of later generations, almost as important as the Spring Festival. However, in the Tang Dynasty, this was not the case.

There are many documents that the Mid-Autumn Festival started in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Song Dynasty. But in fact, people have not found a large-scale description of the Mid-Autumn Festival in the history of the Tang Dynasty. They can only find some legends or stories that are suspected to be related to the origin of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Therefore, it can only be said that the Mid-Autumn Festival did not become a statutory holiday during the Tang Dynasty. It only derived some primitive customs. For example, a small number of people would visit relatives and friends on this day to invite people to enjoy the moon or drink alcohol. Wait, it can't be called a national holiday at all.

The well-known Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th, which mainly focuses on banquets, entertainment and family reunions, was actually gradually formed in the Song Dynasty. This is also in full compliance with the law of historical development: the productivity level of the Song Dynasty is significantly higher than that of the Tang Dynasty, and it is more likely that wonderful cultural and entertainment activities such as the Mid-Autumn Festival will be born. It is the so-called material basis that determines the superstructure.

All in all, after coming to this strange Tang, Li Xin's Mid-Autumn Festival was only his Mid-Autumn Festival.

This kind of subtle loneliness and loneliness, if you don't experience it personally, it is really difficult to understand it in case. Anyone in such a situation may need someone to help resolve it.

Although it is not easy to admit, Li Xin really hopes that Chen Youlan can become this person.

Alas, anyway, even if it is really just Li Xin's own Mid-Autumn Festival in the end, the things that should be bought must also be bought. If life doesn't even have this sense of ritual, then it is really boring.

In order not to cause a commotion, Li Xin wore ordinary coarse linen and went out of the palace, took Zhang Ben and Chen Hu straight to the vegetable market, and soon bought large and small packages of ingredients and returned to the palace of Chu. Of course, it was Zhang Ben and Chen Hu, a dignified prince, who had to be called when they should be called, and they didn't look at the amount of tendon on Zhang Ben and Chen Hu's arms. It was a waste of it.

The next day, Mr. Li Xin, the king of Chu, also got up early in the morning very eagerly, and drove all the messy people out of the kitchen, leaving only the cook who had beaten hands, and started to mess around in the kitchen.

The first thing to do is moon cakes. When the future generations celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, whether they like it or not, they will always eat one or two moon cakes, and even if they don't eat them, they will buy a few at home. To be honest, Li Xin didn't like sweet and greasy moon cakes so much, but since he was reborn, he began to miss everything from the past, including moon cakes.

This may prove to some extent that the human nature is like to be cheap. No matter what, the more you can get it, the less you don’t know how to cherish it. Until you lose it, you will regret it. If you want to add a time limit to this regret... it is until this thing changes again. When it's at your fingertips.

It's really unbearable nature.

Mooncakes can usually be divided into two categories: Cantonese style and Soviet style. Cantonese-style mooncakes are soft and dense, while Soviet-style mooncakes are crispy. Among the two, Li Xin prefers Soviet-style mooncakes, especially Su-style fresh meat mooncakes, which is a must. Therefore, he finally decided to make Soviet-style mooncakes.

Limited by the materials at hand, Li Xin can choose not many mooncake fillings, that is, red bean paste and lotus paste. Anyway, the production steps are not much different, so he simply did both. After busy working all morning, he and the cook made a hundred hot mooncakes.

After leaving 30 for his own person, Li Xin began to distribute the whereabouts of the remaining 70 mooncakes-he couldn't eat so many mooncakes, not to mention eating alone is not considered polite.

The emperor and the queen must send them. Not only are they distinguished, they are also Li Xin's beloved elders, so give them twenty. Master Cheng Yaojin and Master Qin Qiong must not be less, at least ten for each person... It’s okay with Qin Qiong, if you let Cheng Yaojin know that Li Xin has made a good thing but didn’t send it to the door. Let him taste it, for fear that he has to come and kick Li Xin's ass.

That kind of scene, Li Xinguang just thinks about it, it means two battles.

In the book, Chen Yin naturally can't forget that it is Li Xin's future father-in-law. Give ten of them. By the way, you can ask if Chen Zijin is at home.

For the last 20 pieces, Li Xin carefully asked Wang Gui's opinion, divided them into two, and sent them to Niu Jinda and Li Ji's mansion. Although Li Xin didn't go to the two people's house very often, they also had an excellent relationship with Li Xuandao back then, so you shouldn't neglect. If you want to come to Li Xin for anything to ask the two people's house, they will definitely help. This is the so-called friendship between gentlemen, and there is no need to be grateful, it is naturally in everyone's hearts.

In this regard, Li Xin was a little envious. His biological father, Li Xuandao, who has never been masked, is really a man with a full personality and charm, and there are so many brothers who are willing to stab him. It's a pity that he passed away early, and he couldn't let Li Xin see his heroic appearance with his own eyes.

In the future, will I also have such a brother?

Li Xin couldn't help thinking like this. Suddenly the two big heads of Cheng Chumo and Qin Qiong appeared in his mind. They seemed to be two very clever faces... Damn, it's so popular, how dad. His brothers are outstanding figures such as Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, and Li Ji. How about his brothers? And it's still a guy who can be more like a pig than a pig if he is locked in a pigpen...

In order to avoid being **** off, Li Xin had to snorted and didn't let himself continue thinking about it.

The mooncakes were all sent out. On the other side, Li Xin didn't worry much. The only thing he cares more about is the box of moon cakes sent to Chen Yin's mansion.

Can Chen Youlan understand what he means? Does she remember his invitation that day? Will she come?

Thinking of this, Li Xin couldn't help laughing. Although the two lives together are almost forty years old, the identity of the first brother in love can't be concealed in any way, otherwise, how could he suffer from such a trivial matter?

However, the most beautiful place in the relationship may also be in these subtle problems.

Well, no matter whether Chen Youlan can come or not, Li Xin still has more things to prepare.

After all, it’s the Mid-Autumn Festival, shouldn’t you have a table of good wine and food? Crab is essential, right? Yesterday Li Xin really found a crab seller in the vegetable market. The crabs in his family are big and fat. Although they are not as good as the Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs of later generations, they are considered first-class quality in Datang.

Unfortunately, the price is a bit expensive.

As a result, Zhang Ben and Chen Hu were stunned to see the scene of their prince fighting against the small vendors for dozens of dollars. Zhang Ben dared to swear to the sky, at that moment he really had the urge to commit suicide because he was so ashamed-my God, how could there be such a prince in this world, because one of the crab's legs was broken for a short time, he insisted on the business 30% off?

Chen Hu was very fortunate that Li Xin wore coarse linen when he went out. Anyway, no one can see the identity of his prince, and it saves the shameful link.

Finally, after a marathon-style bargain between you and me, Li Xin finally cut off 20% of the price, and the transaction price was 920 wen. As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xin frowned and made a rounding request that was difficult to refuse: Just go ahead, 900 texts.

However, the hawker refused to agree, as if the twenty cents were all his profits. Even if Li Xin put a knife on his neck, he would never give in.

Li Xin was embarrassed because he couldn't really put a knife on the hawker's neck. That would be too barbaric. In the end, he had to take a step back himself, and placed a thousand yuan in the hawker's dirty hands in the hawk's bewildered eyes.

If you refuse to subtract twenty, then I have to add eighty to you. Wouldn't it be rounded up?

Li Xin, a patient with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder, nodded in satisfaction.

Zhang Ben and Chen Hu looked at each other, and they both saw a sentence in each other's eyes: Lord Wang is crazy, right?
