Fireworks in Yangzhou in March.
Quietly leaving Luoyang, which has a heavy historical mark, the big boat carrying Xiao Han and his party sailed down the river, following the route Yang Guang took when he went to the south of the Yangtze River, and moved forward leisurely.
Xiao Han rarely took a boat ride in his previous life. Firstly, he didn’t have the time, and secondly, he didn’t have that much money...
However, this does not affect his yearning for those luxury cruise ships at all.
I just didn't expect that the dream that was never realized in my previous life would actually become a reality now.
Sitting on the deck, bathing in the spring breeze, surrounded by beautiful people, brewing a pot of good tea in front of you and smelling the fragrance of tea.
The most beautiful life is nothing more than this.
Of course, the only fly in the ointment during this period was that all the tea bowls that originally matched the teapots were given to the River God by Xiaodong. Now he had no choice but to get a few wine cups from the kitchen to use as tea cups.
"Oh, what a pity my cup."
Xiao Han took a sip of hot tea and sighed.
His tea set is said to be a masterpiece by a famous master from the previous dynasty, and was originally given to him by Xiao Lizi!
Unexpectedly, it is gone now! Even if it is not a pity for the craftsmanship, it is also a pity for the money this thing is worth...
Next to Xiao Han, Xue Pan was adding pine cones to the small stove for making tea. Seeing her husband sigh, he turned his head and smiled happily and said, "It's just a few cups. How many days have you been feeling distressed? Besides, Xiaodong
Now I can't even stand due to vomiting, so this punishment is enough."
"Tch, he was seasick. I didn't even deduct his wages, okay?" Xiao Han replied depressedly.
Xiaodong is seasick, this is their latest discovery.
It turns out that Xiao Han was afraid that the delicate Xue Pan would get seasick.
But after the boat trip, nothing happened to Xue Pan. Instead, Xiaodong, who usually jumps up and down the most, was so dizzy that the sky was dark and the earth was dark!
Eat rice, spit rice.
Eat steamed buns and spit steamed buns.
In the end, it got to the point where I even vomited after drinking porridge!
In just a few days, the whole person has lost weight, and even the clothes he used to wear are loose. The fat cook is so envious that he wishes he could replace him!
"Hey, this is still a canal. If it reaches the sea, how can it be repaid?!"
Shaking his head, Xiao Han used to want to take Xiaodong with him when he wanted to go shopping on the sea, but now he doesn't have to!
If you behave like a bear in this calm canal, if you go to sea, you will probably lose your whole life.
"The sea? What does the sea look like? How is it different from this?"
Xiao Han did not expect that his casual complaint would arouse Xue Pan's interest, and he would force him to tell her what the sea was like.
"What does the sea look like? It's what the sea looks like! One moment it's as calm as the spring lake, and the next moment it can stir up violent waves and overturn ships to the bottom of the sea..."
"Ah? What about a ship as big as ours? Can it be capsized?"
"Humph, this is our boat, and I'm not afraid to tell you! It doesn't even need big waves. In the open sea, it only takes a gust of wind to topple it."
"..."
The time on the boat is so leisurely.
Drinking tea, I picked up a few more pirate stories to scare Xue Pan. After fully satisfying my need to brag, I went to the cabin to take a nap.
In the afternoon, we went fishing at the stern of the boat as usual. The whole day just wandered by. The key was not to delay our journey.
No wonder Yang Guang spent so much effort building the canal. He must have realized the benefits, Xiao Han thought.
I don’t know why, but the fish in this canal are not only fat, but also very silly. They like to chase after the boat, just like tadpoles looking for their mothers.
Ever since Xiao Han accidentally discovered this, he even skipped the bait when fishing!
I asked Lao Dong to make a hook similar to a tripod anchor, and coupled it with a kite wheel and a bamboo pole. This is Xiao Han's fishing artifact, without even a fish float.
Throw the sharpened three-claw hook into the water, and then take in the line.
At this rate, two or three out of ten hooks will be able to hook a blind fish, and the evening meal is considered to have been secured.
Cooking fish on a boat is generally very simple. You don’t have to pay attention to frying or frying. It’s usually just a pot of stew!
No matter what kind of fish it is, clean it, chop it, and throw it into the pot to cook.
If there are crabs somewhere, the same thing! Hurry up when you put the lid on the pot, don't let those eight-legged guys escape!
Xiao Han was fishing on the boat but didn't eat fish, which was quite strange.
Every time the fat cook cooked up a pot of milky white fish soup and brought it over, Xiao Han would righteously reject it and ask him to quickly bring it over to poor Xiaodong to replenish it, even if he only ate some green vegetables and radish, he would not touch those.
Rich and fragrant fish soup.
Xue Pan always follows Xiao Han when eating, because everyone in Chang'an knows that when it comes to eating, Xiao Han is definitely a master!
Seeing that her husband didn't eat fish, Xue Pan didn't understand, but still followed his footsteps closely.
Smiling, he pushed away the fool and brought the fish, and followed Xiao Han's example, picking up a vegetable from the plate and chewing it carefully.
"Ms. sir, why don't we eat fish? Didn't you love catching and eating fish the most before?" When no one was paying attention, Xue Pan swallowed the green vegetables and asked Xiao Han beside him in a low voice.
Xiao Han smacked his mouth and said to her in a low voice like a secret agent: "We won't eat the dirty fish here!"
"Dirty?" Xue Pan frowned when he heard this and whispered: "No way, I see the fat cook washed all those fish very clean?"
"Hey, I didn't mean that he didn't wash it clean!" Xiao Han might have choked on his steamed buns, so he raised his head and took a sip of water, and then said vaguely: "I mean this river is not clean!"
"Why isn't the river water clean?" Thinking about the clear river water outside, Xue Pan couldn't understand what Xiao Han was thinking more and more.
Xiao Han rolled his eyes and whispered: "Idiot! Think about it, how many boats run in this river every day? It's not like you haven't seen the latrines and kitchens on the boats. The dirty things have gone directly into the river. What do you think?
Can it still eat fish raised in water?”
"Toilet? Ugh..."
Xiao Han originally didn't say it was okay, but when he said this, Xue Pan's expression changed immediately!
When she thought of those disgusting things, she immediately felt her stomach turning upside down. She dropped her chopsticks, covered her mouth and rushed out!
Not long after, there was a series of vomiting sounds outside!
"Eh? What's wrong with Mrs. Xue?"
Xiaodong, who had been vomiting for the past two days and almost collapsed. Xiaodong, who had just gotten better these days, accidentally saw this scene and asked Xiao Han in confusion.
Xiao Han chuckled, gnawed on the steamed bun and said, "It's okay, maybe I'm seasick like you!"
"Seasick? Why didn't you feel sick at first, but only now?"
Xiaodong looked outside the cabin strangely and scratched his head, wondering why other people's seasickness was different from his.
