River Tuluo Xian

Chapter 85
After Baoqing Mansion, and further north, is Nanjun.

Nanjun governs nine counties.

But from Baoqing to the north, there are fewer streams and rivers, and most of them are mountains and hills.

An old man said "Three hundred hills cross Nanjun", which means that if you want to cross Nanjun and go north, you have to pass through the land of three hundred miles of hills.

I bought horses at the Road City Station, but Ying Ning was too timid to ride alone, so she only bought one and Jiang Ling took her with her.

It's only been for more than forty miles, and the road ahead is bumpy.

Jiang Ling had no choice but to dismount and walk slowly while leading the horse.

It was early spring, but the scorching sun was scorching hot, as if the summer was coming early, and people were sweating profusely when walking in the sun.

To a village, there is a tea shed at the intersection.

At this time, there are not few merchants passing by, and most of them are passing by.

Regardless of their status, they all sat down in the tea shed and drank tea to cool off the heat.

The merchants talked about the strange things going from south to north, and the passers-by were fascinated by it, and they all enjoyed it.

"I said just now that the best brocade is Liyang [Three Feathers Brocade]. But if you ask about this delicious dish, I would never have imagined it in the past, but now, it can be said to be one of the best.

Not only me, but everyone who has been there recently has an unforgettable taste of that place.

If it wasn't for the business trip, I'd like to stay there and eat him a few more times. "

The merchants showed nostalgia.

A passer-by suddenly asked: "Are you talking about the Fengyue Restaurant in Linzhou County?"

The merchant was curious: "You also know?"

The passer-by clapped his hands and smiled: "Recently, I have always heard about this restaurant. It is said that even the leaves of green vegetables can be fried. Unfortunately, I just heard that I have no chance to go to Linzhou County recently. I can't taste it even if I want to eat it."

The merchant clapped his hands and said, "I won't hide it from you. The dishes of Fengyue Restaurant are indeed extremely fresh. I have traveled all over the world, and I have eaten at hundreds of restaurants. Recently, none of them have appeared. The one on the right. If you go to Linzhou, I strongly suggest that you should go there to make a tooth sacrifice, after eating, you will definitely not regret it."

Seeing that the merchants spoke so firmly, everyone yearned for Fengyue Restaurant more and more.

Jiang Ling came with his horse, just in time to hear this, and couldn't help laughing.

I thought it was only a short period of time, I didn't want the reputation of Fengyue Restaurant to have spread here.

Linzhou County is also worthy of being a waterway gateway, mainly because there are many merchants traveling from south to north, and the news spreads widely.

only……

He turned his head to look in the direction of Linzhou County.

'In the beginning, the monosodium glutamate was left just to help her stabilize the business, but now that the business is so good, I don't know if it is a blessing or a curse? '

Find a place to sit down and order a pot of tea.

Seeing food on other tables, he realized that this is not only a tea shed, but also serves meals.

The boss is a couple of farmers, the man is willing to work, and the woman is willing to be thrifty.

Xiaoying Ning looked at the other table's wine and meat, and his tongue was full of saliva, but because of timidity, he dared not speak.

Jiang Ling saw it in his eyes and smiled in his heart.

Let the boss send two roast chickens, and share one with her.

She stared blankly, not daring to move.

"Don't eat?"

Ying Ning bit her lip and swallowed, "Master eats first."

It turned out that she also knew about respect and inferiority, perhaps it was the ghost mother who taught her that when sitting with elders, relatives and friends, one should put the other person first, this is etiquette.

"You don't have to worry about me, you can eat whatever you want."

Jiang Ling patted her on the head, signaling her not to hesitate.

After hearing Jiang Ling's words, she let go of her restraint, picked up the roast chicken and began to eat it.

However, with this move, the greedy eyes of a child at the next table were straightened.

The child is only six or seven years old, and the mother is taking it with him. It looks like it should be from a peasant family.

Xu Shi was visiting relatives and friends, carrying a bamboo basket with some eggs by his side.

There was only a pot of light tea in front of their table, so they should have rushed here to order a pot of tea to quench their thirst and fatigue.

As for peasant families, drinking tea is all they need to do, but they cannot afford to eat meat.

A roast chicken costs twenty coins.

If you exchange grain and rice, you have to have four catties.If you save some food, you can survive for seven days.

Seeing that the child was fascinated, his mother looked slightly embarrassed, and hugged the child in her arms, telling him not to look at it.

In front of impolite people, it only makes people laugh.

But the child's heart is straightforward, even if he is held in his mother's arms, he can't help but peek at Ying Ning's eating.

When Jiang Ling saw it, he suddenly split the chicken in front of him into two, and pushed half of it to the woman.

The woman was taken aback, looked at the roast chicken, then at Jiangling, as if she was at a loss.

"This sister-in-law, don't be too polite. It's fate to sit at the same table. Besides, I can't finish this much. It's a waste to keep it. Let's eat with the children."

Even though Jiang Ling said so, the woman still didn't dare to accept it.

Shaking his head, he said: "Thank you for your kindness, but the poor family can't bear such kindness, and I hope the guest will take it back."

That's what she said, but when the child in her arms saw the roast chicken pushed in front of her, he reached out and took it.

When the woman saw it, she reprimanded him sharply and asked him to put it down.

The baby cried, but eventually he was obedient, put down the drumstick in his hand, and wiped his tears.

A woman would never dare to accept such a free favor.

Jiang Ling was touched by the scene, and suddenly thought of his grandmother, and remembered living in her family when he was young, and she also taught him the same way.

For a while, generosity came from it.

He said: "This sister-in-law doesn't have to be like this. If you feel uneasy, you can give me two eggs as a replacement, how about it?"

The woman refused to answer at first, but it was obvious that the baby was crying and finally sighed.

He took out four eggs from the basket and handed them to Jiang Ling: "I finally received the grace of the nobleman, and Qiao Sheng should thank the nobleman."

The boy's original name was "Qiao Sheng". Hearing what his mother said, he bowed to Jiang Ling respectfully.

"Let's eat." Jiang Ling smiled and accepted the four eggs.

Qiao Sheng wiped away his tears, but took the chicken leg and gave it to his mother.

Mother shook her head, but he forced it into her hand.Then he picked a wing and ate it with relish.

'It's filial. '

Youdao said that Yan's mother gave birth to a filial son, which seems to be true.

The woman was probably also hungry, so she endured it for a while, and seeing that the baby couldn't finish it by herself, she tore off some corners and ate it in small bites.

After Jiang Ling had finished drinking a pot of tea and was about to leave after eating, the woman at the opposite table suddenly covered her stomach and cried out in pain.

The child named "Qiao Sheng" cried anxiously and hugged his mother's arms.

I didn't know how to help her, the more anxious I was, the louder I cried.

People around all looked back, the shed was full of people, but no one stepped forward.

Everyone is just meeting each other on a journey against the road. There is a saying that everyone sweeps the snow in front of his own door, and don't care about the frost on others.

It is inconvenient to meddle in other people's business.

Seeing the woman's condition, an old man suddenly said, "I'm afraid it is a disease of gallstones. I have seen this before. Those who suffer from this disease have abdominal pain like a knife. But those who suffer from the disease often have no cure. People, I'm afraid I'm hanging."

Another merchant nodded and said, "I've seen this case too, it's true."

The disease of gallstones is the disease of gallstones in later generations.

It is often committed in women, and severe pain is caused by gallbladder stones.

Severe cases may perforate and bile rupture, causing intra-abdominal infection and death.

This disease will be in later generations, and it must be cured by analgesic and anti-inflammatory.

In such an era, it is difficult to heal.
