Emperor Xiaoyao of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 78 Er Li's Visit (Please recommend)

Jin Yu and Cheng Huaimo carried the ice water, and they had to be thanked by the laborers. Although the previous masters did not treat themselves as human beings, they have never seen the master who gave the servants ice water to relieve the heat. It is said that this ice water can also be enjoyed by the wealthy, and ordinary middle-level families do not have the financial resources to store ice.

Looking at the servants surrounding Jin Yu to thank him, Cheng Huaimo also got a little bit of light, feeling the gratitude from others, his heart was quite swollen, being able to help others is also an achievement, isn't it?It seems that I have to learn more from my elder brother on this point. (This is true. Last time when Hoe He came back from a business trip, he was stopped by an old man at the exit, saying that his wallet was stolen on the train. The station police station~has contacted his family and will come to pick him up later. He is tired and thirsty now, and wants to buy a bottle of water for him to drink. Seeing that he is neatly dressed and holding a cane, he doesn’t look like a lie. He gave some of the hoe, although he squeezed the bus on a hot day, he also I was not willing to buy a bottle of cold drink, but the sense of accomplishment of being able to do my best to help others is really beyond words. When I came back, my girlfriend said that I might have been cheated, and Hue He said that even if I was cheated, I would admit it. Pull away, continue to write.)
Back in the backyard, Cheng Huaimo was a little puzzled when he saw the empty bowl of ice water. He clearly remembered that it was full, why is it gone?Of course Jin Yu understood what was going on. Lions used to do such things when they were bored. It was a sign of wanting to find someone to accompany them. It seems that they have been neglecting Lions recently.In the future, I want to teach the lion to be more naughty, at least knock down the bowl and pretend to throw it away, hehe.

Jin Yu didn't give Cheng Huaimo a chance to ask questions, so he dragged Cheng Huaimo who was in a daze to the wing room, "Come with me, I just thought of a way to steam wine, but it's not enough energy. I have wine at noon."

"That's a good relationship! My brother looks at the pot, but my eldest brother wants a whole table of good dishes, hehe." Cheng Huaimo immediately regained his energy when he heard that there was wine to drink, and forgot about the ice water.Cheng Huaimo is now used to the habit of having lunch in the Jin residence. (In ancient times, there were only two meals, one between 7:9 and 3:5 in the morning, and one between [-]:[-] and [-]:[-] in the afternoon. After eating in the morning, go out to work, because there are few entertainment items in the evening, so it is usually not enough after eating in the afternoon. Go to bed. This can be seen from the other names of time handed down from ancient times, [Chenshi] when eating, also known as early food; [Shenshi] when feeding, also known as day shop, evening food.)
"No problem, as long as you can watch the pot well." Jin Yu hasn't tasted Erguotou for a long time, and the alcohol content is low these days, so he managed to get some high alcohol content, which is still on top.Now I finally think of a solution, so naturally I won't let it go.

"Looking at the pot is a piece of cake, and it's on my younger brother." Cheng Huaimo slapped his chest loudly, fighting with King Kong. If there were more hair on his face, he would look like a humanoid King Kong.

Jin Yu was a little surprised by Cheng Huaimo's words, "Are you still watching the pot?"

"Does elder brother underestimate people? Father said that only when he knows bitterness can he know sweetness. Younger brother has done a lot of hard work since he was a child." Cheng Huaimo explained, somewhat dissatisfied with Jin Yu's surprise.

"I really can't see it, but this way I feel more at ease." Jin Yu didn't expect Cheng Yaojin to have this awareness, which is really different among the nobles, but this is good, and the children in the province don't know that a happy life is hard-won , worthy of admiration.

Jin Yu lit the fire with a lighter, and Cheng Huaimo was drooling again, this lighter is really easy to use.Jin Yu saw the rarity in Cheng Huaimo's eyes, and said to him: "Brother, I made a fire-making gadget, and it can be ready after eating. Although it's not as good as a lighter, it's better than a fire bag. I'll give you two back."

"Okay, then it's a deal." Cheng Huaimo was overjoyed, this brother is too surprising, he just said he wanted it yesterday, but he made it today, how can people not like it?
Jin Yu explained to Cheng Huaimo the key points of lighting the fire and how to change the water. Seeing that he was still doing well, he went to the kitchen with confidence.This is also something that can’t be helped, who just pulled the labor to come to work today?You can't ignore the food, can you?There is no takeaway in this era, so I can only do it myself.

Walking through Yang with a hundred steps, scooping oil and dripping, there is no one else, but you are familiar with it.Although Jin Yu's cooking skills have not reached the professional level, he still has a few home-cooked dishes.Coupled with Xue Niang's assistance, within half an hour, he cooked six small dishes for himself, plus four big pot dishes for the servants.

As soon as the dishes were put on the table, I heard a high voice: "I can smell the fragrance of the dishes from a long distance away, it seems that Xiaoyu has cooked the dishes again, the old man is lucky, haha."

In the entire Tang Dynasty, no one called Jinyu "Xiaoyu" except Li Daozong. After hearing this, Jinyu quickly walked out to greet him, "Uncle Li is here, the humble house is really full of splendor."

"I don't see you for more than a month, Xiaoyu is getting more and more good at talking." Li Daozong joked, then turned and pointed to the door and said: "I am not the only one here, but also the King of Shu."

"If you take the liberty to visit, don't be surprised if you return to the Tang Dynasty." Li Daozong just finished speaking, Li Ke walked in with two baskets, as if he was visiting relatives in later generations.

Jin Yu was a little surprised that Li Ke came in with the things in person, and hurried forward to take them, and said politely: "Come on, just come, what else do you bring, you're too polite."

"Huaimo asked me to send this to Gui Tang, isn't it rare?" Li Ke joked immediately because he had a natural affection for his little uncle.

"Cotton seeds? Rare, this is a great gift, I should be clear about it! Please come to the two distinguished guests." Jin Yu was overjoyed, now this year's cotton-padded jacket and quilt are no longer worrying, and he has covered enough for himself!
"Huaimo pays respects to Uncle Li and the King of Shu." Cheng Huaimo finished steaming the second pot, heard voices outside, and came out holding the porcelain bottle.Seeing the two rare guests, I salute immediately, but I have learned from Jin Yu, and I don’t worship the official position if I can be an elder, which makes people feel kind.

"Huaimo is here too? Is this practicing calligraphy on the face? One left and one right." Li Daozong joked when he saw Cheng Huaimo's cat face.

When Cheng Huaimo heard Li Daozong's words, he quickly touched the left and right sides of his sleeves, smiled, and didn't care. He didn't forget to advertise: "I'm helping Brother Jin to watch the pot. Uncle Li has a good fortune. The new wine is strong and not on the top."

"Xiaoyu can also make wine?" Li Daozong was a little surprised. This Jin Guitang is really good at tinkering. Not only is he superb in cooking, he can even make wine. "It seems that I don't want to drink today. I have to try this."

"It's also the first time this kid tried this method, so please give me some advice from Uncle Li." Jin Yu was carrying two baskets, which were obviously equally heavy. No wonder Li Ke was leaning his body just now, but unfortunately he couldn't see what was inside the other basket because of the burden. thing.

"Go, sit inside." It was too hot, and Li Daozong was not polite, leading the way to the living room.

"I have tasted the meatballs made by Gui Tang last time, and I can't forget it. It seems that the king of Japan is lucky today. Uncle Wang, please take a seat." Li Ke is the most distinguished among the people. After entering the room, he saw the dishes on the table and said. road.

"The king of Shu has won the prize. The dishes are less, and I will cook some more." Jin Yu looked at the pitiful six dishes on the table, and felt that it was a bit small, so he wanted to cook some more. There are two guards of the princes who want to eat, right?

Li Daozong, who was sitting at the top, stopped Jin Yu. After all, he was the one with the highest seniority. "You are welcome, Xiaoyu. These are just right. If you have too much, you won't be able to eat them. It's a waste of life."

"Let's do more, the kid doesn't dare to treat the guards of the two lords slowly, does he?" Jin Yu and Li Daozong can be said to be old acquaintances, and they didn't see each other at the moment, so they had nothing to say.

"None of them brought any guards today. The nephew said Xiaoyu didn't like trouble, so the old man drove them all back." Li Daozong waved his hand, indicating that Jinyu really didn't need to add food.

Hearing what Li Daozong said, Jin Yu quickly thanked Li Ke. This kid is so sensible and knows how to hurt others, but his identity is here, so it is impossible not to thank him. "Thank you for the wrong love, King Shu."

Li Ke quickly stood up from his seat, pretending to go over to help him, and turned his body sideways to avoid the ceremony without showing any trace, "You don't have to be polite in Guitang, if you are too polite, you will be offended."

"Is this a cold melon?" Before the two of them finished politely, Cheng Huaimo couldn't help but unwrapped the two baskets, just like his father, he was very curious.

"Exactly. It's hot this year, and the cold melons ripened early. Today, I went to Nanlin Garden to pick up cotton seeds. I happened to see that the cold melons were ripe, so I picked two of them." Li Ke explained with some pride, and he also had his own pride The reason is that cold melons are in short supply these days, and most people don't allow them to be grown at home, because they occupy too much fertile land, so Cheng Huaimo is a little uncertain.

Jin Yu took a look, and the so-called cold melon is the watermelon of later generations, and it is not small.Watermelon Watermelon, Jin Yu always thought it was a melon from the West, but he didn't expect it to be available this year. Of course, he was overjoyed, and now there are more good products to cool off the summer.

"Uncle Li, sit down for a while, boy, go to the ice, just to cool off after the meal." Jin Yu was not polite at the moment. After speaking to Li Daozong, he gestured to Li Ke, picked up a watermelon and threw it directly into the ice-making water tank inside.

When Jin Yu came back, Li Daozong nodded and praised: "From small to large, Xiaoyu's handling of things is really extraordinary. No wonder His Majesty praised you and said that you are good at calculating. What is this called 'coordination' in Xiaoyu's hometown, right?"

"Your Majesty's absurd award, I'm ashamed of it." Jin Yu was taken aback, why did Li Er's ears hear all the planning he said casually?The word spread too fast, right?
"You deserve it. Why can't you deserve it? The old man met Jie Li a few days ago, and he was full of praise for your gentle strategy. He also wants to thank you on behalf of the people." Li Daozong did not hesitate to praise, the reason why Jin Yu has a great impression, and it is also because Jin Yu's suggestion solved the problem of how to arrange the Turkic people for him.

"It's all about mutual benefit, and I don't deserve to be thanked by Booger Khan." Jin Yu was ashamed, he had no good intentions, and felt uneasy about others' thanks.

"Haha, you're a slippery head." Li Daozong saw that Jin Yu didn't want to involve too much political affairs, so he smiled and exposed the topic, picked up the full wine glass, and said, "Come on, drink!"
