Chapter 607 An old man visits(1/2)
Mi cable is also called Mi Gan, Fengan, which is rice noodles.
The inn's rake meat rice noodles use soup made from large bones, which is cooked very well. The soup is rich and delicious, oily but not greasy. The snow-white rice noodles are added with a slightly white soup stock, and some rake meat is placed on top. It seems to be a good choice.
It is meat from hooves, elbows and other places, still connected with the thick skin and fat. It has been stewed until it is soft. It is so soft that you can tear it off with just chopsticks and put it in a bowl. It is delicious and delicious.
Some chopped green onions, a little kimchi, and almost nothing else, but as the store said, it tastes light and delicious. After one bite, it goes into your stomach very smoothly and gently.
Immediately, the warmth spread from the throat to the belly. It was extremely comfortable on this slightly cool autumn evening.
If a chopstick is sandwiched with the same light but rich meaty rake meat, half fat and lean, the thin rake is soft but not woody, the fat one is fragrant but not greasy, plus a little kimchi, even the last bit will be delicious.
The slightest bit of greasy taste is completely gone, and it has been perfectly neutralized.
"Suck..."
Song You tasted the delicacies belonging to this place.
It's hard to imagine that it only requires such simple materials and techniques to make a delicious dish.
"Bah, bah, bah..."
The calico cat was also eating meat next to it, but it raised its head from time to time. The cat's face frowned, and its originally round eyes became less round. It glanced at the Taoist, then lowered its head and continued eating.
"Don't even think about it, Sanhua Empress. A mouse can't make this taste."
"Meow……"
"No?" The Taoist glanced at her again, "You don't have to think so much. This bowl I have is enough for me. The store gave us a lot of extra meat. Although more than half of it was given to Sanhua Empress, my bowl
The meat in it is still a normal amount, just concentrate on eating yours."
"Meow!"
The cat raised its head again, glanced at him with a frown, hesitated to speak, then lowered its head, and slurped at the meat.
Such a bowl only costs ten cents.
After the Taoist finished eating, he paid the bill and returned to his room.
The room in the inn is not necessarily more spacious than the carriage shop, but it is more refined. There is an oil lamp in it, and there is some lamp oil in it. It is a gift from the store. Any more will cost money. The Taoist walked in and put the oil lamp on
Go to the innermost cabinet of the door and take out your own oil lamp to light it.
The room suddenly lit up with light.
"brush……"
The Sanhua Cat jumped up on the table, looked at the Taoist, and then spoke: "Taoist, Sanhua Empress seems to have a bagasse stuck in her mouth, oh no, two."
"Where is it stuck?"
"It's stuck in the mouth." The cat said and closed his mouth, thought about it, felt it, and then added, "There is one on both sides."
"How does it feel?"
"It lives in Sanhua Empress! It hurts and itches!"
"Oh, my mouth is rotten." Song You nodded, "I told you, if you eat too much, your mouth will be rotten."
"It's bagasse."
"It's probably blisters or ulcers."
"That's bagasse!"
"Then dig it out."
"Can't touch it."
"Then it's rotten."
"It's bagasse! You can't go wrong!"
"..."
Song You looked away helplessly, not bothering to say anything to her. He walked straight to the bed, sat down, took off his shoes, put on his clogs, and started to wash up.
This little thing is also very stubborn.
The Taoist had told her a long time ago that eating too much sugar cane would make her mouth rot, but she refused to listen. Now her mouth is really rotten, but she refused to admit that it was a rotten mouth. Instead, she made up a lame excuse. In the end, it was
Unwilling to admit the mistake she made by not listening to him, she blamed it on an accident.
A common trick used by children.
But Sanhua Empress soon made him realize that she was no ordinary child——
I saw the cat following him. When he changed his shoes, she followed him to the bed. When he washed, she followed him to the wall. When he picked up tooth chips, she followed him to his luggage. She kept looking up at him.
After a while, she asked in a very low voice: "Sanhua Empress is so powerful, how can she chew up her mouth even if she eats sugar cane?"
"Sanhua Empress is really powerful. If an ordinary person eats a piece of sugar cane for half an afternoon, her mouth will be blistered and rotten. Sanhua Empress ate an unknown number of sugar canes for several days, day and night, and it took such a long time for her mouth to start to swell."
The problem is indeed unusual."
"then what should we do?"
Still asked very quietly.
There was a bit of caution and worry in his tone, asking for help.
"There is no sugar cane here. Go to sleep. You will be fine tomorrow. If you eat so much meat at night, don't catch mice. Let the mice in the inn live one more night." The Taoist said, "If we meet again in the future,
Remember to exercise moderation when it comes to sugar cane. If you eat too much at once, you will easily get tired of it even if your mouth is not bad. Then there will be less of a unique delicacy in the world. This is arrogance towards it."
"Well……"
The cat was thoughtful.
After a while, she whispered softly: "You won't necessarily eat the mice if you catch them, they can be saved..."
The Taoist ignored her.
After washing up, I walked to the window.
Open the window and look outside——
I saw the full moon when I first arrived in Yundu last time. Now there is half a bright moon in the sky. Under the moonlight, there is an open space behind the inn. You can see the grass growing on the ground, which is very shallow. There are some or high grass in the open space.
There are many low wooden shelves, and many cloths are hung or spread out, all swaying in the moonlight wind.
This is the residence of the little Chai Niang.
The appearance of those people at that time has gradually become blurred in Song You's memory. He couldn't remember how many houses Song You went to at that time, and how many people he entertained with good food and wine. However, he still remembered that he had just entered the painting industry.
When I was in school, I met an old farmer, and the first person I went to was his home. The old farmer’s surname was Chai, and his name was Chai Xueyi. There were seven people in his family. In addition to the old couple, there were two sons, a daughter-in-law, one grandson, two granddaughters, and two more.
None of the granddaughters are married.
This place seems to be similar to the world in the painting, but in fact it is very different——
Here the four seasons rotate and yin and yang alternate.
This place is real and normal, the way of heaven is complete, and the laws are complete. Even crops can be grown in the reed fields, and reeds can also be grown in the fields. Outsiders may come at any time, and people may leave at any time. There is a continuous stretch of land behind the mountain.
Beyond the mountains, dozens of miles away, there is a vaster world, with both wind and rain and sunshine.
Song You went to Huali at that time. Even though the scenery was peerless, everything stayed in the best season. At the best time, the villagers were all warm and simple, but it was still very uncomfortable to live there.
And he has psychological expectations about the world in the painting.
Little did he know that when the person in the painting came out here and saw a completely different world, he must have been so frightened and confused during those first days.
Song You stood in front of the window for a while and then fell asleep.
The next morning.
When Song You woke up, the calico cat had already woken up and was lying on the window, looking at the courtyard behind the inn. When she heard the movement behind her, she turned her head and looked straight at the Taoist.
It is easy to tell from the bright and vivid eyebrows that her mouth seems to be healed.
"Are you up, meow?"
"Get up."
The Taoist slowly put on his clothes, walked to the window, and looked outside.
The weather in Yunzhou is indeed unparalleled.
It was only morning, and already the pale golden sunshine was shining down. The sky was full of light blue, with thin gauze-like clouds floating in the sky. The open space below was covered with cloth, and many people were busy.
At this time, there was no wind at all in the small town of Xianning, but someone was shaking the cloth and making a popping sound. It was already very far away, and the distance made it softer, like a belt coming from the creek at the other end of the village.
The echoing sound of beating clothes does not disturb people's sleep, but makes them calm.
Many of the cloths are gorgeous and shockingly delicate.
"The weather is very good today."
"Yes!"
The cat raised its head and could easily see the Taoist with its back turned, and asked him: "Are we going to visit that little Chai Niang?"
"Miss Sanhua is extremely smart."
