Chapter 212 Food and Learning

The remaining clean meat picked from the large snail is another dish.

Put the snail meat into clean water, add salt and rub it several times to get clean snail meat and drain the water.

Heat the pot, dry-bake the snail meat, and remove the moisture from the surface of the snail meat.

Add lard to the pot, add Sichuan peppercorns, pickled ginger, and pickled peppers and stir-fry until fragrant and red, then add the snail meat and stir-fry.

Then add light soy sauce, oyster sauce, cooking wine, stir-fry a few times to bring out the aroma and take away the fishy smell, add minced garlic sprouts and red pepper rings, and finally add salt and stir-fry out of the pot.

This is the first time Zhou Zhi has made this dish. Based on the texture and flavor of the snail meat, it was made according to the method of stir-frying duck gizzards, but just used a little more oyster sauce.

By the time the two plates of food were served, Wei Yi and his friends had already started talking about the snails.

Neither Wei Yi nor Mr. Qiao had eaten this dish before. Wei Fei had eaten it once or twice, and Yang He had eaten it the most. While teaching them how to pick out the snail meat with toothpicks, he expressed regret: "It's just to cool down with beer, no."

Suitable for this season…”

Zhou Zhi: "Then drink something hot."

"Can you drink the beer hot?"

"Wait a minute..."

In fact, hot beer is very simple, just boil beer with rock sugar, wolfberry, longan and meat fermented glutinous rice. Except for the lower degree and the bitter taste, it is actually quite delicious.

The people of Jiachuan are accustomed to sour, astringent, and bitter foods such as bitter bamboo shoots, Houttuynia cordata, and green berries. They cannot be said to be a favorite, or even a hobby. Therefore, the bitter tail seeds used in brewing beer are not suitable for them.

For Jiachuan people, it is not called bitterness, but flavor.

Wei Fei's parents are a little amused by Zhou Zhi's endless weird food, but the taste is indeed good and suitable for girls.

My daughter is also very ambitious. During this period of time, she wants to become a graduate student. Jiachuan has only produced one graduate student so far, which is Kudingcha. Is this my daughter going to be...the second one?

So when Lao Wei saw his daughter happily chewing on the bits of meat in the small snails, holding a brew as bland as fermented glutinous rice, and constantly inviting people to this and that, he felt comfortable watching the liveliness on the table.

There's only one thing. My eldest sister is twenty-two this year. It's okay if she doesn't pass the postgraduate entrance examination. If she passes, it will be delayed for two years. Then she's twenty-four. She's twenty-five when she goes out to find a job. Even if she falls in love right away, it's just a matter of time.

We dated for a year and it was already twenty-six years since we got married...

Oh my god, this is not even a detailed account. Once you calculate it, even the fried snail meat with elbows will no longer smell...

But my friends don’t think so. There is no doubt that the dish of spicy fried snail meat is very successful, especially the use of oyster sauce, which is a seasoning rarely used in Jiachuan families nowadays, which adds flavor to the snail meat.

A unique sweet flavor.

Wei Yi ate very happily and looked at Zhou Zhi with a smile: "No wonder Xiuzi has been boasting about it for a year. It turns out that the taste of snails is really good."

"Sister, you can't blame me for this, right? You have to work and study during the summer vacation, otherwise you won't be able to take care of this thing."

"If you don't work hard and study hard, will you support me?" Wei Yi glared at Zhou Zhi: "That's putting it lightly!"

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Wu Qiaomu opened his mouth, and Zhou Zhi was so frightened that he quickly interrupted: "It's okay, it's okay. There are ways to eat these snails in summer and in winter. They are the fattest around the Mid-Autumn Festival."

, but it seems that the snails we eat from Jiachuan are not feeling thin now..."

"It has something to do with the climate. After all, this is the northernmost subtropical climate." Mr. Qiao was finally led astray by Zhou Zhi. He did not expose the despicable attributes of the Weiyi brand dog licking in front of Wei's parents and Wei's mother, and turned to study geography.

scientific questions come.

"Actually, Jiachuan is like this. There are many anti-latitude geographical phenomena, right? For example..."

"litchi."

"Longan."

"Olive."

"Uh... what a stupid duck?"

"Hahaha, this doesn't count." Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "But many migratory birds such as egrets no longer migrate in Jiachuan, can it be counted?"

"It can be counted. Does the giant salamander count?"

"You can't count the giant salamanders. There are plenty of them in the mountains of Qianzhou."

"Does hummingbird count?" Dad Wei suddenly said.

"Hummingbird?" Zhou Zhi and Mr. Qiao looked at each other, then turned to Dad Wei: "There is such a thing in Jiachuan, is it impossible?"

"Why not!" Dad Wei is not used to brewing beer, so he still drinks his own beer, and now it has stained his face: "In the Qinggang Forest in my hometown in Anle Mountain, when a few dwarf Paulownia trees bloom, hummingbirds come to eat the nectar."

After saying this, I was a little unsure: "The shining bird that eats nectar is a hummingbird, right?"

"Oh, I'm afraid it's true!" Zhou Zhi and Mr. Qiao felt as if they had discovered a new world: "This clue is so important, I have to tell Teacher Jiang!"

"Stop talking about this." Wei Yi waved his hand: "Jiuzi, are you really determined to take the exam at Shu University?"

"It's not that I want to take the exam at Shu University, it's something I want to learn. Now in the whole of China, only Gu Lao is the most authoritative." Zhou Zhi said, "And Mr. Gu is at Shu University, so I can only take the exam at Shu University."

"What kind of knowledge can only one person in the whole country teach?"

"It's something that I think is very important. It can explain clearly where we Chinese people come from, it's exegesis."

"Really?" Wei Yi only knew that Zhou Zhi was doing something about literature and history, but he didn't expect that Zhou Zhi had raised his research to such a high level: "Come on, tell me, why is this knowledge so important?"

It’s as important as you say.”

Zhou Zhi said: "Exegesis is a discipline in Chinese tradition that studies the meaning of ancient Chinese words. Its earliest origin is traditional Chinese philology, a branch of primary school."

"In the beginning, the meaning of exegesis was to 'explain the classics', which is the 'study of interpretation' that exists to help students understand ancient classics."

"It not only explains the meaning of ancient Chinese words, but also analyzes the grammar and rhetorical phenomena in ancient books. It studies ancient documents from the perspective of language and helps people read classical documents."

"Isn't this just a dictionary?" Wei Yi didn't understand: "So, when you learn this subject, you are actually memorizing a dictionary?"

"Ha?" Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "That's not the case. Exegetical science can be divided into a broad sense and a narrow sense. Exegetical science in the broad sense includes phonology and philology, while exegesis in the narrow sense is just relative to phonology and characters in primary school.

Subject."

"It wasn't until Mr. Zhang Taiyan wrote "Wenshi" and changed the name of "Primary School" to "Language and Character Studies" that China had etymology in the modern scientific sense, and "Wenshi" became the first book with modern scientific meaning. A monograph on the etymology of meaning, Mr. Zhang also became the founder of modern linguistics in my country."

"The next important figure is Mr. Huang Kanhuang, who further developed the subject concept based on Mr. Zhang's "Language Studies"."

"Mr. Huang said: 'Execution means "Gu", which is the original meaning. "Execution" means "Shun", which is the extension. "Exegesis" refers to interpreting language with language.'

‘If one interprets the language of another place with the language of another place, or interprets the language of the past with the language of the present, this is all part of the exegesis, but not the principle of its composition.
