Datang male nanny

Chapter 85 The History of Joule

Night falls.

Ni Tu was still worried about the snow waves, so he went out after a simple dinner.

Tai Chi Palace.

Looking at the back of the old woman who turned and walked out of the screen, Wu Meier murmured to herself: "Male nanny? Pedicure? Massage? Dumplings? What is this kid thinking about every day! He has no ambitions and impure thoughts. He is really a bunch of helpers." Isn’t it mud on the wall?”

Wu Meier asked someone to cook a box of dumplings, and then took the box to Tai Chi Hall.

Li Zhi is fighting at night with the lights on.After receiving Sun Simiao's pulse diagnosis, he drank the tonic soup carefully prepared by Sun Simiao, and his spirit became much better.

He didn't know that the mental effect was at work, making him temporarily forget the pain in his body.But it works.

After learning that Sun Simiao affirmed that he could completely cure the wind arthralgia, Li Zhi felt refreshed, his legs no longer ached, his waist was no longer sore, and his old eyes were no longer dizzy.

Taking advantage of his good spirits, Li Zhi reviewed the memorials he owed overnight.

Wu Meier came in with the food box in person, and went straight to the rest room next to the main hall.

He lifted the lid of the food cage, brought out the bird's nest porridge, filled a small bowl for himself, and drank it.After waiting for a while, another bowl of bird's nest porridge was brought to the table.

Afterwards, Wu Meier came to the Longshu table in the main hall, lifted the cover of the lantern, picked up the bronze wire and picked up the lamp, and the light in the main hall suddenly increased a lot.

Only then did Li Zhi look up from his busy schedule.

The graceful figure and exquisite curves are dimly illuminated by the colorful lights, beautifying Wu Meier like a fairy descending from the mortal world.

Wu Meier turned around and smiled at Li Zhibo.

Looking at the beauty under the lamp, the more you look, the more energetic you will be.

Li Zhi became interested, threw away the brush, got up and walked towards Wu Meier, holding her hand.

Wu Meier snuggled into Li Zhi's arms like a little sheep.

"Your Majesty, drink some bird's nest porridge to replenish your body."

"it is good!"

The two came to the lounge.

After Li Zhiduan sat down, he picked up the bird's nest porridge and took a sip. He felt that the taste was a bit lacking, so he added some honey to it, stirred it, and then picked up the bowl and drank it with satisfaction.

Wu Meier stood behind Li Zhi, stretched out a pair of jade hands, gently pressed on Li Zhi's temples, and gave him a gentle massage.

Li Zhi closed his eyes, leaned back, and lay in the gentle countryside, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

After a while, perhaps because he was too relaxed, there was a scent in his breath, which caused Li Zhi to open his eyes suddenly.

"Meier, what delicious food did you bring me?"

Wu Meier opened the food box with a smile, a gust of hot air came up, engulfing the tempting delicacy, and made Li Zhi swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Wu Meier picked up a dumpling with her chopsticks and took a bite, chewed and swallowed.

After waiting for a while, Wu Meier brought out a plate of dumplings from the food box.

Then he brought out a small dish of vinegar and a small dish of mashed garlic.

"Oh? Joule?" Li Zhi picked up one of the chopsticks and observed carefully.

Wu Meier on the side covered her mouth to hide her smile.

Li Zhi frowned again and said, "It looks like Joule but it's not Joule. This one seems to look better than Joule."

Li Zhi took a bite of the dumpling, nodded, and was full of praise: "It's delicious!"

"My lord, dip it in some garlic and vinegar, the taste will be even better."

"Excellent indeed!"

After eating several in a row, Li Zhi felt good.

"This is much better than joules. The production of joules is extremely simple. Vegetables are finely chopped, mixed with noodles, and steamed in boiling water. People eat more, but aristocratic families use them as coarse grains, so no one makes them."

"Meier heard that this is a new food method invented by Zhang Zhongjing. His Jiaoer Decoction for Dispelling Cold is widely circulated among the people. It is said that when Zhang Zhongjing was the prefect of Changsha, he often cured diseases for the people. One year the local plague was prevalent. See Many poor people suffered from hunger and cold, and their ears were rotten from the cold. It turned out that typhoid fever was prevalent at that time, and many people died of the disease. He felt very sad and determined to treat them."

"He imitated the method in Changsha and asked his disciples to set up a medical shed and a cauldron on an open space in Dongguan, Nanyang, and open it on the day of the winter solstice to give medicine to the poor to treat their injuries."

"In addition to dispensing medicine to treat patients, he also built a big pot at the door of his house, and asked his disciples to boil mutton and some medicinal materials for dispelling cold in the pot. Make ear-shaped rice balls, cook them in a pot and distribute them to patients begging for medicine. Each person has two delicate ears and a bowl of soup. After eating the cold-dispelling soup, people get hot all over their bodies, their blood flows smoothly, and their ears become warm. The common people From the winter solstice to the New Year’s Eve, it resisted typhoid fever and cured the frozen ear. Zhang Zhongjing’s medicine lasted until the New Year’s Eve. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, people celebrated the New Year and the recovery of the rotten ear. They made New Year’s Eve like Joule Food, and eat it on the morning of the first day of the new year. The people commemorate this great benevolent man in this way."

Li Zhi nodded.

"It seems that this delicacy is made according to Joule, but the dough is thin and strong, and the stuffing inside is also very delicious. I don't know what the new name of this delicacy is?"

"Some people call these delicacies dumplings."

"Dumplings? Jiaozi, Jiaozi, Jiaozi? Very kind! On the occasion of the new year and the old year, during the time of Jiaozi, steam and cook some delicious dumplings, and the family will reunite harmoniously in the atmosphere of food and warm wine. The head of the family admonished the children, The mother admonishes the daughters to manage the family diligently and thriftly, protect the family and defend the country, and become the pillar of the country, the favored son of heaven, and the meaning of dumplings comes out.”

"The Holy Majesty's words of gold and jade have won the favor of the people of the world. Presumably, there will be a prosperous world of prosperity, well-being, happiness and harmony in my Tang Dynasty."

Li Zhi felt very relieved when he heard this, nodded, and then picked up a pen and wrote two words on the lid of the food box: "Dumplings."

After dipping in garlic and vinegar, and eating dumplings, Li Zhi asked casually: "This kid Ni Tu really has a way. He even cooks a table of delicious food for Mo Xiang'er himself. He is not afraid of ruining his Tan Hualang's favor." Although I am angry at such a low status, the food must be extremely delicious, and I want to go there all night to eat and drink."

There was a trace of coldness in Wu Meier's eyes, but she soon returned to her smile.

"Your Majesty, let's wait until the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming before going on an outing. At that time, let Ni Tu cook a big table of delicacies for His Majesty."

Li Zhi obviously felt Wu Meier's jealousy, and stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms, sniffing deeply the refreshing fragrance, Li Zhi said: "Acupuncture, cupping, dumplings, I really don't know that this Tanhua Lang I personally selected back then What do you want to do with all your heart, presumably if these tact and intelligence are used in real affairs, they will definitely have miraculous results. Could it be that his ingenuity can't be used in state affairs to share my worries? Doesn't he have the intention to serve me and serve me?"

Wu Meier stroked the back of Li Zhi's hand and said, "Your Majesty, Bole always trains wild horses, and it's better to let them suffer some hardships. It's better to let that kid suffer some hardships in Chang'an to grind his temper."

"it is good!"

Gently flick the supple skin.

Small actions continued, and finally turned into big actions.

The night is deep, and people gradually sleep peacefully.
