Chang’an Small Restaurant

Chapter 55: carriage in the rain

      The famous restaurant ate two bowls of buttermilk cherries, and when they left the restaurant, the world changed.

    Shen Shaoguang walked back quickly, and just before he left the West City, there was a strong wind and raindrops fell.

    Although he brought an umbrella, he couldn't fight against such strong convective weather. Shen Shaoguang hurriedly ran back to the east gate of Xishi City to take shelter under Erxiazi.

     

     "Last year there was little rain, but this year it's been more rainy."

    "The saint was going to Yuanqiu to ask for rain at this time last year."

    "A saint is a saint after all. He is favored by God. I remember that it rained a few days after praying for rain."

    …

    Listening to the chat between the two, Shen Shaoguang sighed while Hu Lu's hair was messed up in the rain just now. meaning.

    The first rain in the palace is usually to eat locust leaves to welcome the summer. The so-called cold scourers are the cold noodles of later generations. In the 21st century when Shen Shaoguang lived, many families followed the tradition of "Dumplings on the Winter Solstice and Noodles on the Summer Solstice". Judging from the inheritance of this eating habit, I am a great Chinese nation.

    The noodle of the locust leaves in the palace is not very different from the folks, they are all picked young locust leaves, smashed to extract the juice, and put in the noodles, the noodles made in this way are green in color and have The bitter fragrance of locust leaves.

    Of course the noodles in the palace should be made finer, after all, there are special noodles, they should be wide or wide, thin or thin, the thinnest is not much thicker than a hair, and the middle is constantly , one piece of noodles can cook a small bowl, which is amazing - but no matter what, it's still that thing.

    The difference between the court and the folks is in the toppings.

    The first emperor loved to pour "Xiaoxiong" and "Zhilu" when he ate cold Taos. Yujian noodles also liked this stuffing. In summer, he was not afraid of getting angry.

    It's more reliable today, I like to pour shredded eel or sea bass. The shredded eel is fried first and then stewed in bone broth. It is a labor-intensive dish, and the taste is very fragrant; while the sea bass fillets should be refreshing, let the oil slip in low temperature, and then sauté the shallots and **** in another pot, add the mashed glutinous rice and fish fillets , it will be out of the pot after seasoning, and it will not be so fresh and tender after a long time.

    The concubines with heads and faces in each palace have different tastes, but in general, they all follow His Majesty. Therefore, as soon as the beginning of summer, the price of eel and perch in Chang'an City will increase. Shen Shaoguang went shopping today. It was only half an afternoon, and there were no eels for sale.

    The folk cold scouring is much simpler, a small sauce made of clear sauce, garlic, vinegar, and sesame paste, and a little shredded cucumber is enough to make people eat two big bowls. A Yuan said that the ladies of the rice grain store used to pour salt and brine directly...

    Shen Shaoguang missed the fried sauce noodles and tomato egg noodles in his previous life again. Jajang noodles can now be replicated, but tomato and egg noodles are impossible.

    Why don't you eat fried noodles tonight? Should I use pork jasmine that is 3/7 fat and 70 percent lean, or quail meat jasmine? The quail delivered this morning is very fat, if cut into small pieces of fried sauce, it should be very fragrant...

     

    "A Lang, Mrs. Shen seems to be blocked by the rain at the entrance of the West City over there." After coming out of the house of Shilang Song in Yanshoufang, Liu Chang saw Shen Shaoguang at a glance, thought about it, and gently Knock on the wall to remind Lin Yan.

    Lin Yan lifted the curtain of the car and saw Shen Shaoguang in the crowd, in a white shirt and a red skirt, holding two bags and an umbrella.

    Lin Yan's eyes are not very good, she can't see her face clearly, only the blurred look makes her feel a little silly - or childish.

    Put down the curtain of the car, Lin Yan instructed the servant who was driving the car: "Go over there and pick her up."

    Seeing a car with guards coming over, the people who took shelter from the rain thought it was the nobles who were going to visit the West Market, so they all ducked to the side, and they scolded in their hearts, the nobles are really sick, this kind of day It's not good to stay at home.

    Shen Shaoguang recognized Lin Yan's car, which had the family emblem on it, and the attendant surnamed Liu, who was riding a horse and wearing a hat, was also right.

    Liu Chang dismounted, walked over to cross his hands, and said softly, "Little lady, go back with our car."

    Of course it's good to be able to hitch a ride, Shen Shaoguang is not pretentious, smiled and thanked, and walked over with an umbrella.

    The driver put down the bench for her, Liu Chang dared not help each other, and only stood a step away to prevent her from slipping and falling.

    Lin Yan lifted the curtain of the car, Shen Shaoguang smiled at him, and got into the car steadily.

    Sit on her knees opposite Lin Yan, and put the sugar, raisins and umbrellas she bought next to her, Shen Shaoguang smiled and nodded as a gift, "Thank you Lin Langjun today."

    "Just drop by." Lin Yan smiled lightly.

    Shen Shaoguang smiled.

    When no one spoke, the sound of rain outside made it seem extra quiet in the car.

    Nearly, Shen Shaoguang could clearly see the pattern on Lin Shaoyin's robe.

    Lin Shaoyin is wearing a formal dress today. The solemn color and straight back make her look more majestic. Do the math, oh, there is a synodic meeting today...

    The eyes went up along the robe, the snow-white collar, the clean shaved flat chin, the first time I found that Lin Shaoyin actually had lip beads, tsk tsk... Shen Shaoguang's eyes were on Lin Yan's good-looking lips lingered for two laps before they went up again, with a high nose, and then met his eyes.

    Shen Shaoguang averted his eyes and smiled nonchalantly: "Thank you very much for the tapestry of Mrs. Tai. Such a precious thing, I really feel ashamed."

    Since the person who sent the things from Lin's house said that it was sent by Mrs. Tai, Shen Shaoguang naturally thanked Mrs. Lin, but why it was to Lin Shaoyin, that is another matter.

    "My grandmother also likes the honey-stained wisteria from the little lady," Lin Yan thought for a while, and added, "I've been thinking about getting people to stain some flowers recently."

      Drink it, or add it to buttermilk, the color is beautiful and the smell is sweet, which is the best. Although the peony is also beautiful, the taste of the stain is worse. The worst thing is the crabapple flower, which is a pity. "

    At the same time, the two of them thought of the beautiful and beautiful Begonia in the house, Shen Shaoguang felt a little regretful, and then continued, "It's a little late, and the pear blossoms in Zhongchun are stained very well. The lotus flower for a while is still suitable for deep-frying, as for the golden autumn osmanthus..."

    Speaking and talking, Shen Shaoguang laughed himself, if I write "Hundred Flowers", I will definitely indicate the taste of various flowers like "Shan Hai Jing" Crane, that's all there is to it, right?

    Lin Yan raised her eyebrows to look at her, her hair was slightly messy, and the crimson skirt was half new, but her face was bright, reminiscent of the begonia in the back garden after a slight spring rain.

    Begonia, the rich flower in the world.

    Lin Yan looked away, and after a while, "Has the girl ever complained about Ling Zun's choice?"

    Shen Shaoguang's smile faded, and after thinking about it carefully, the original owner was still young at that time, and there was no resentment in his mind, but more fear and anxiety, even his mother didn't seem to resent it, as for Brother A …I do not know.

     

    Shen Shaoguang said with a smile, "Just thinking about eating and drinking, why are there so many redundant ideas?"

    Lin Yan looked at her.

    Looking at Lin Yan's serious eyes, Shen Shaoguang pursed his lips, "There are some things that can't be calculated and must be done." For example, maintaining justice and truth...

    "My father just did what he thought he should do."

    Lin Yan was silent for a long time, looking at Shen Shaoguang's beautiful and calm face and listening to her soft but heart-pounding words.

    Shen Shaoguang felt too tired to talk to this Shao Yin, so he didn't make a sound at all, listening quietly to the sound of rain outside the car.

    "Cock", the car stopped suddenly, Shen Shaoguang flickered, and rushed towards Lin Yan. Lin Yan reached out to support him subconsciously, and Shen Shaoguang threw himself into Lin Yan's arms.

    Both of them froze.

    It was noisy outside.

    Shen Shaoguang sat up straight, Lin Yan retracted his hand, clenched his fist, and put it back on his lap solemnly.

    Liu Chang reported from outside the car: "The horse seemed to be startled in front, causing the car to collide."

    "Go and have a look." Lin Yan said.

    The road encountered traffic accidents and traffic jams in the Tang Dynasty, but there was nothing I could do, so I had to wait.

    There seems to be a sweet smell in the car, Lin Yan didn't feel it before, but now he feels that the sweetness is going straight into his nose.

    I glanced at the straw paper candy bag that Lady Shen had placed beside her, because it was a little wet, showing some marks. Lin Yan subconsciously glanced at her front, and hurriedly lowered her eyes again, thinking that she had rubbed the candy on her clothes...

     

    Shen Shaoguang is nothing, after all, this level of physical contact in the previous life is too common - think of the morning and evening rush hour subway.

    However, Lin Shaoyin is a scholar, his arms and chest seem to be quite stiff... It can be seen that it is true that the scholars of the Tang Dynasty mounted the horse to settle the world, and dismounted to write articles.

    Shen Shaoguang thought of those outstanding figures in the Tang Dynasty, and his eyes were placed on this Lin Shaoyin. It is a pity that I am ignorant of the history of the Tang Dynasty.

    Liu Chang carried the talisman of Jingzhao, and the rest of the guards and servants were also capable. When the time was not old, they came to report that they could move on, and briefly reported the cause of the accident and the handling process. The two injured are family members of Dr. Guozi Zhou Qin. They were only slightly scratched, but they were not serious. They have been sent to a nearby hospital. "I leave Fu Jing to deal with this matter."

    "Yes, let's go." Lin Yan nodded.

     

    Ayuan Achang was looking around anxiously, saw Shen Shaoguang, and greeted her without opening her umbrella, "The little lady is back! Yu Saburo went to find a car to pick up the little lady. The little lady was drenched. Bar?"

    "It's okay, it's okay..." Shen Shaoguang comforted them, turned around and waved goodbye to the Lin family with a smile, and then asked Achang to put on an umbrella to find Yu San.

    Smelling the sweet smell left in the car, Lin Yan put down the slightly raised window screen, "Let's go."

    In the evening when he was working on the paperwork in the study, Lin Yan smelled the sweet smell again.

    Taking a bite of the wisteria cake, thinking of the daytime things, she said, "Some things, you can't care about the gain and loss, you must do it", and the feeling of warm and fragrant nephrite in her arms, Lin Yan picked up the pen and wrote the word "荠" on the paper, looked at it for a while, and smiled somewhat resignedly.
