Chapter 92 Ambiguity

Soon the glutinous rice balls were cooked, and a large pot was filled with white dumplings.

Su You then called the fellow villagers who were helping him to come over for dinner.

Hachigong also set off two firecrackers at the door. When Su You heard this, he quickly ran over to watch.

Gunpowder! It’s an artifact of the time traveler. I don’t know how to use it!

The firecrackers were popping, the smoke was rising, and there was not much movement.

Hachigong was not satisfied either: "Damn it, the saltpeter shops in the city are pretty bad..."

Su You then secretly tugged on his sleeve: "The saltpeter shop, I'm afraid it belongs to the Cheng family..."

Hachiko curled his lips: "Anyway, that's what I meant, let's go and eat some floating balls."

It was a rare occasion for the villagers to eat sweets. After one bite, they were so happy that they couldn't help but exclaim: "Sweet! They are actually fragrant, sweet and glutinous dumplings!"

Shi Wei was of course the happiest one. She came over with a bowl and asked Zhang Sheng: "Brother, do you eat this every morning in the city?"

Zhang Sheng said: "I can't afford this! This is for entertaining the distinguished guests passing by. It is the most exquisite meal in the charity shed. A bowl of four floating balls is worth fifty coins!"

Now the villagers are even happier. Youba has moved here and has been talking about it for half a year!

After eating Fuyuan, it’s time to prepare for the banquet.

Banquets in the countryside must be based on various steamed vegetables.

Pork bones, chicken, duck, and soup stock were made last night, now is a good time.

Meatballs, crispy meat, fried in two big pots.

Braised pork with plums and vegetables is a traditional dish made by Yi Peng. It is sweet, salty and roasted in white. It is also a traditional dish of the traditional nine-double bowl of later generations. The method is not complicated, so Su You added this and used the remaining glutinous rice dumpling fillings to design

A piece of meat stuffed with sand.

Soon the dishes were put into the big steamer and steamed one after another.

Dried yellow flowers, bamboo shoots and mushrooms are placed on the bottom, crispy meatballs are placed on top, and the soup stock is poured into the bowl...

The fat meat is bundled and branded into tiger skin patterns, simulating steamed elbow...

Pork with sand and vegetables, pork with pickles...

Steamed pork intestines, steamed pork ribs...

Next, there are all kinds of dishes.

Braised pig trotters, braised pig tail, cold pork head, roasted tripe strips with garlic and lettuce, pork intestine and pork lung soup...

In short, the dishes on the table, except for the salted egg and preserved egg, almost all have the surname "Pig".

Of course, the first ones to gather were the children, who gathered around the two large stoves and watched the food being steamed, their mouths watering.

The villagers have been arriving one after another, and the gifts are usually a poultry or two fish. This year, they have provided enough feed. Each family has many eggs, and some have given twenty eggs.

None of them gave gifts.

Then the Shi family also came over, and this time they finally did not lead a team to carry gifts to their new home. Shi Tong held a box in his hand, and when he opened it, he found a copper incense burner weighing four pounds and eighty taels.

This incense burner looks very old at first glance. It also has an elegantly curved hollow chrysanthemum pattern bead button cover on it, and there is an inscription underneath: "The pure atmosphere is distributed, the harmonious rhyme is pure, the spiritual prosperity is enjoyed well, and the descendants are protected."

According to the imperial edict, the Su family of Zhao County was created and extended to the first year of the first year in the autumn of the lunar month."

Su You was shocked: "This... this thing is too expensive..."

The Shi family spent a lot of money. Su You didn't know the year of the first year of Yanzai, but just looking at the inscription, it should be a big reward given to the Su family by an unknown court in the past.

Shi Kuan smiled slightly: "This was originally your family's thing, now it just returns to its original owner."

Su You bowed deeply to Shi Kuan and said, "The master of the house is so kind to me, Su You will never forget it."

Shi Kuan looked at Shi Wei, who was leading the children around the large stove. It was obvious that his family was not as attractive as the fried meatballs. He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "That's all, let's change this name slowly."

Su You quickly invited several elderly people from his family to come over. After he explained the origin of the incense burner, the Su family was immediately shocked.

Just as the commotion was raging, another awning boat came up the Glass River, with two young men standing on the bow, one fat and one thin, exactly two Su.

Su You quickly went down to the bay to greet him.

When the boat reached the shore, Su Shi jumped out first: "This place has good Feng Shui! The glass river is like a bamboo pen, and this bay is an inkstone pond. Well, the mountains behind it are so bright. Do you think it is a pen stand?"

?”

Su Che was still the same, smiling and bowing: "Hello, little uncle. Zizhan has become obsessed with the art of Kanyu during this period, and he is almost crazy..."

Then a girl came out of the boat. When she saw him, she waved: "Xiaoyou!"

It is twenty-seventh mother.

Su You smiled and said, "No wonder Zizhan Ziyou was outside blowing the river breeze. It turns out you were in the cabin."

Then another big one and one small one came out, but Ba Niang and Su Xiaomei also came.

Su You hurriedly said: "Then let's go quickly. It's windy by the river. Let's go up to talk. Why didn't my uncle-in-law and uncle-in-law come?"

Ba Niang said with a smile: "My grandpa said that if he came, it would be to receive gratitude. There was no need, so he didn't come."

Twenty-seventh mother said: "I guess my father is reluctant to part with this gift!"

Su You said: "Don't say that, Shibo has done a lot for the children. Little sister, why didn't you come with Fifth Brother and the others yesterday?"

Su Shi said: "Didn't my little sister work as a cashier yesterday? When I went back and found that Gou Sheng and the others had already set off, I cried. I brought her here today."

These two people have extraordinary talents in writing. In Su Shi's words, it is a pleasure to teach such students. They have to tutor Su Xiaomei every day, and their homework is far ahead of the other classmates. This is so biased.

No borders.

Su You said to Su Xiaomei: "From now on, you will be divided into a group and come to Kelongli every week. Help me with some experiments and learn about science and engineering. Now it's just me and my uncle in the house. I'm really not used to it."

Su Xiaomei looked at Su You a little strangely: "Will the new sister-in-law not let you play with us?"

Su You rubbed her head and said, "You think too much. Now she is playing with Brother Gou Sheng and the others."

When the group came to the edge of the open dam, they saw a bunch of chickens, geese, ducks, and more than a dozen blue eggs of various sizes.

The ducks were very dissatisfied with their treatment and made a fuss.

Su Shi couldn't help laughing: "I heard that the court also looks like this."

Su Che said in a deep voice: "Ninety-two! Be careful what you say!"

In fact, Su You was a little bit numb to these things, but he didn't feel angry when he heard Su Shi's words: "Zizhan, if you are going to suffer from this in the future, it will be your mouth."

Su Shi didn't take it seriously: "A gentleman's three fears are not the fear of suffering a loss. Mingrun, you still need to study more."

This sentence made Su You roll his eyes: "Forget it, I'm too lazy to care about you. By the way, the Shi family sent me an incense burner. It should be a reward from my ancestors of the Su family in Zhao County. Why don't you go and break it up?"

Su Shi was very interested in this: "Let's go and have a look."

Su Che said: "Zizhan, let's pay a visit to the elders first and then talk..."

Everyone came over to meet the elders of Shi Su and Shi Su, and naturally they were polite again. Shi Kuan smiled and said: "I am a rude general, but I don't know the origin of the incense burner. I can only tell from the shape and materials that it is an object from the Tang Dynasty.

You need to have a good discussion with Kun Zhong."

The incense burner has been moved into the center of the ancestral hall. Su Shi and Su Che took it over and looked at it. Su Che shook his head: "This extension is the anniversary of Wu. It is the Wei Dynasty that moved Fengge's family, inspected Fengge's minister, and Tongfengge Luantai.

If things go smoothly, then the time of formal teaching will be added."

Su You was very surprised: "You are now the prime minister when you are conferring Pingzhangshi on Fengge Luantai, right? Then why are you shaking your head?"

Su Shi's eyes were still on the words on the incense burner, and he said: "Looking at the inscriptions inside the incense burner, it turned out that Empress Wu specially ordered it to be made by Su Gong and sent it to his family temple for preservation."

After speaking, he raised his head and said with a smile: "Ziyou is hiding something for his elders. In fact, a gentleman's fault is like the eclipse of the sun and the moon. Our elder... Hehehe, I really shake my head when I say it."

Su Che sighed: "The "Book of Tang" records that this ancestor was 'good at presenting narratives and knew many stories about the pavilions. However, he lived in front of and behind him for several years and could not invent anything. However, Zhiwei was just trying to tolerate it.

. He once said to people, 'You don't want to be decisive and clear when dealing with things. If you make a mistake, you will be punished, but it is okay to hold both ends of the ambiguity.' People at that time called him 'Su Muleng'."

"In Chang'an, I asked him to return to his hometown to bury his father. The imperial court optimized the system and ordered the prefecture and county to provide for his burial. The result? Because of this, he invaded the tombs of the villagers and over-served. He was impeached by the Xiansi and was appointed the governor of Fangzhou on the left.

"

Su Shi smiled and said: "Not long after, he was demoted to the governor of Yizhou. In the early years of Shenlong, he was attached to Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong, and was demoted to the governor of Yizhou again. This is how we have a branch of Sumen in Meishan.
