Seeing the beauty caring so much about him, Feng Yong suddenly felt a little turbulent and was about to do something.
Unexpectedly, Guan Ji had learned the lesson before. When she saw the look on the guy in front of her, she knew that he was not well-intentioned. She looked at him warily and said, "Brother, what are you going to do?"
Seeing Guan Ji's defensive look as if facing a powerful enemy, Feng Yong could only stop thinking and pretended to be confused: "What to do? I didn't do anything."
Guan Ji glanced at Feng Yong and thought, maybe I am too careful?
"Brother, what happened just now?"
"Oh, I just suddenly thought of someone, so I got a little excited. Let's talk about it together when Erlang comes over."
Zhao Guang lived far away from Feng Yongyong. When he heard Amei's message, he immediately said "Ouch", thinking that it must be because my sister knew that her brother had taken Amei into a house, so she treated Amei accordingly.
Is it okay for my brother to fight?
Besides, although my brother is good at this kind of boxing, he has not practiced martial arts since childhood like me. Even I can't withstand my sister's cruel attacks! Thinking about this, I became more and more anxious, and I quickly put down my work.
Came over.
Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the door, I didn't see the restless scene as I imagined. Instead, I saw my brother and sister sitting at the same desk, acting somewhat ambiguously.
This immediately made Zhao Guang a little confused: When did my sister become so virtuous and not even angry when she learned that her brother had taken Ah Mei away from her room?
Looking at Feng Yong again, I couldn't help but admire him even more: my brother's vision is really accurate. I've heard him say before that although my sister looks cold, if she wins her heart, I'm afraid she will become a tender girl.
Although I don’t know what the allusion of Zhuozhirou comes from, but as the name suggests, my sister is in front of her brother at this time, and she is probably not far away from Zhuozhirou.
Before he could think about it, both people in the room saw Zhao Guang at the same time.
"Erlang is here, come in and sit down."
Feng Yong stood up and said hello.
"I heard...Amei said that my brother was in an emergency, so I thought something had happened."
When Zhao Guang came into the room and mentioned the word "mei", he looked at Guan Ji and saw that her expression did not change, and he couldn't help but be surprised.
"Oh, this matter is urgent, but it won't be done in a short while, so it's not urgent, nor is it urgent."
"Oh, but the elder brother didn't call the younger brother to come. What's the matter?"
Zhao Guang asked curiously.
"Erlang, please sit down for now and let me tell you slowly."
Feng Yong asked Zhao Guang to sit down, and he naturally sat back down.
Unexpectedly, Guan Ji coughed slightly and glanced at Feng Yong covertly. This position was very close to her. It would have been fine if there were only two people, but now that Erlang is here, how can this guy still be there?
Are you embarrassed to sit here?
Feng Yong thought he didn't see Guan Ji's look and sat down on his own. Just to prevent Guan Ji from being annoyed, he had to move the stool again.
Guan Ji still felt a little embarrassed. Although the distance was farther than before, it was still limited. It was obviously still much closer than the normal distance.
He glanced at Zhao Guang again, only to see him sitting there, his eyes just looking at Feng Yong, but he didn't notice anything wrong with the two people on his side. He looked like he didn't see anything.
Quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
When Zhao Guang wasn't paying attention, he kicked Feng Yong underneath to show her anger.
However, Feng Yong didn't pay attention. He just frowned at Guan Ji where Zhao Guang couldn't see him. Then he turned to Zhao Guang and said, "Erlang is going to Yang'an Pass now. I also want to ask Erlang to help me check."
one person."
"Brother has a trust, and it is my duty to help you." Zhao Guang cupped his hands and said, "Why should I say "invite or not"?
"Okay," Feng Yong nodded and smiled apologetically, "I said something inappropriate. That's it. After Erlang arrives at Yang'an Pass, help me check on that Jiang Shu."
"Jiang Shu? Who is that?"
Zhao Guang frowned. In his memory, there was no need to remember Jiang Shu who was still a nobody.
Even Guan Ji was a little confused, wondering who this Jiang Shu was?
Looking at the expressions of the two of them, Feng Yong felt a little helpless. You two second-generation officials are really qualified. After all, I ran errands for you in Yang'an Pass. I don't know how long it has been.
Who is this person?
"Erlang must have forgotten that when I first arrived at Yang'an Pass, General Ma happened to be out patrolling the border, leaving behind a young general who was specially at his disposal."
"Oh, it turns out that brother is talking about that young general." Zhao Guang suddenly realized, "I only remember such a person, but I have never remembered his name."
"What did the young general named Jiang Shu do that made my brother ask Erlang to go and check his background?"
Guan Ji asked from the side, thinking at the same time, wasn't it Fu Qian that I was talking about to my brother just now? Why did my brother suddenly think of Jiang Shulai? Is it possible that there is any connection between the two people?
"We can't say yet."
Feng Yong shook his head and looked at Zhao Guang again, "When Erlang goes, he must find out all the details of this person, what his character is like, what his hobbies are, how many people are in his family, how many acres of land he has, and how many cows he has."
, it’s best to find out even those relatives who haven’t left the fifth server.”
Zhao Guang started to listen. He didn't pay much attention at first, but he didn't know that his brother wanted to find out the relatives of that person who had not yet entered the fifth server. This tone sounded like it was no small matter.
"Brother, what's the big deal between this person and my brother?"
Not only Zhao Guang, but also Guan Ji looked at Feng Yong in shock.
I saw that Feng Yong's expression was slightly gloomy, and he was even more horrified.
Searching for relatives in the fifth server, what does your brother want to do?
"I have never seen this person before arriving at Yang'an Pass, so why should I celebrate the festival?"
Feng Yong shook his head and smiled, "Erlang just go check it out first, I haven't thought about how to do it yet."
My brother doesn't look like he's not celebrating the holidays.
Zhao Guang was thinking this in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. He just nodded in agreement: "Brother, don't worry. When I go, I will definitely find out this person's details clearly."
At the same time, he secretly thought that this person seemed to be about the same age as himself and others, but he did not look like someone who had done great evil. Could it be that his elder had offended his brother's sect, and now he was recognized by his brother?
But my brother's business is my own business. Besides, Jiang Shu has nothing to do with me. Even if my brother wants to do something, I, as the younger brother, can naturally only help him.
"That's it. Erlang has worked hard to go here. And Sanniang, it's even harder to travel all the way. If nothing happens, I will ask Amei to prepare some food, one is to see Erlang off, and the other is to welcome Sanniang.
"
After hearing this, Zhao Guang hurriedly said with saliva: "Brother asked Mrs. Amei to cook more. I don't know when I will be able to come back after I leave. I am used to eating the food at my brother's house. If I go to eat something else, I really feel like it."
It tastes bad. Sister, tell me, is it true or not?"
Zhao Guang had mentioned Amei just now, and he was relieved when he saw that Sister A had no reaction. This time, he subconsciously said "Ms. Amei" casually.
Unexpectedly, Guan Ji snorted, thinking that you called her "Ms. Amei" very smoothly. It seems that you have already regarded her as your brother's roommate, and you really are not my brother!
"The food at my brother's house is naturally delicious, but if we want to talk about delicious food, there are still a lot of them in the world."
Guan Ji disagreed with Zhao Guang's statement, glanced at Zhao Guang, and said lightly.
Zhao Guang choked and thought to himself, "That's what I said. Sister, why are your words so directed at me?"
Guan Ji didn't explain, so she immediately picked up the package and took out something carefully wrapped in linen. After unwrapping it, there was a round-bellied and wide-mouthed bottle inside, with the mouth of the bottle tightly sealed.
Guan Ji carefully pried open the mouth of the bottle, and then said: "Brother, please ask someone to bring two bowls and spoons."
Feng Yong watched Guan Ji take out the bottle like a treasure, and was extremely curious about what was inside. When Guan Ji said this, he immediately called Amei to get it.
After Amei brought it, Guan Ji carefully dug out the grey-brown viscous liquid from the bottle and put some into each of the two bowls.
Just as he was about to reseal the bottle, he thought for a moment and put an extra portion in one of the bowls. Then he moved the larger bowl to Feng Yong and handed the remaining one to Zhao Guang.
"Try it." Guan Ji's expression showed a rare hint of pride, "Let's see if anyone knows what this is?"
Feng Yong looked at the gray and viscous liquid in the bowl and felt that he really had no appetite, so he glanced at Guan Ji suspiciously.
"Brother, please don't think this thing is ugly, but it is rare and delicious."
"It's so sweet!" Zhao Guang couldn't care less. As soon as he got the bowl in his hand, he took a bite. His eyes widened and he blurted out, "Sister, you are right, this thing is really delicious!"
There wasn't much in the bowl, so while Zhao Guang was talking, he finished it in three mouthfuls. He smacked his mouth, looked at Guan Ji, and smiled flatteringly: "Sister, can you give me another portion? I just ate it.
It’s almost gone, I haven’t tasted it yet.”
"No!" Guan Ji glared at Zhao Guang and carefully wrapped the bottle again, "These are local products sent from Soochow. I finally begged my aunt to get these."
"Sweet?" Feng Yong heard Zhao Guang's words and thought that this low-quality poison-like thing is actually sweet? He has never heard of any desserts in this era! Maltose doesn't look like this, right?
Then I mustered up the courage to take a sip, and it was indeed sweet in my mouth, and it was extremely sweet.
I tasted it again, and this time I felt it. After the sweetness, there was a slight astringency in my mouth, and there was also some fine residue.
It just tastes a bit familiar?
Sweetness can make people happy, but more importantly, sweetness is an extremely rare taste in this era. Even wealthy people may not be able to taste it many times a year.
Why does Feng Yong go through so much trouble to make ice cream? The reason is very simple: maltose is too hard to find, or sweetness is too hard to find.
If it weren't for a second-generation official like Zhao Guang, Feng Yong wouldn't be able to find anything sweet at all, so he made it a few times to coax little Luoli Zhang Xing, and by the way to improve Huang Yueying's favorability, Feng Yong directly
I gave away the recipe for this thing - I can’t afford it!
Later, facts also proved that even the homes of the rich and powerful might not be able to make sweet-flavored ice cheese, so some were only occasionally circulated in the palace.
To be honest, Feng Yong was used to eating all kinds of artificial desserts in later generations. The slightly astringent sweets in the bowl really couldn't enter Feng Yong's mouth. He hadn't tasted sweets for a long time, so he tasted them twice and was satisfied.
, and no longer eat.
"Sanniang, what on earth is this?"
Feng Yong put down the bowl and looked at Guan Ji.
"Stone honey."
Guan Ji was slightly surprised when she saw that Feng Yongqian stopped eating after one taste. It was the first time for her to eat such sweets, and she couldn't help but want to eat more. She never thought that her brother could not only control her appetite, but also eat more.
Even looking at that look, he didn't seem to take it seriously, which is really rare.
"Brother, why don't you eat more? Is it possible that you don't like sweets?"
"Unappetizing."
Feng Yong shook his head, his expression indifferent.
"Why doesn't it taste good?" Zhao Guang almost jumped up, "Brother doesn't think it tastes good, how about giving it to my little brother?"
"Take it."
Feng Yong pushed the bowl to indicate that he didn't want to eat anymore.
"Thank you, brother."
Zhao Guang came over without politeness and took away the bowl.
"What is this stone honey made of?" Feng Yong frowned slightly, "Why have I never heard of this thing?"
"This product is a tribute. It is only produced in the Jiaozhou area. In the past, only people in the royal family could occasionally eat it. How do ordinary people know about it?"
Guan Ji felt that it was normal for Feng Yong to know. Even most people in the court did not know this. If her aunt hadn't been born into a wealthy family in Jingzhou and happened to see it, she would have been laughed at by Soochow this time.
After saying that, Guan Ji took out a few short sticks from the package and put them on the table. She picked up one of them and shook it. She smiled and said, "Shimi is made of this thing. Brother, do you know it?"
"
Feng Yong felt a little funny when he saw Guan Ji taking out a stick from her bag. He thought to himself that she was really crazy about martial arts. Others put clothes in their bags, but she put sticks in her bag. And what could such a short stick do?
Unexpectedly, when he took a closer look, he was shocked. He couldn't wait to pick up one, looked at it over and over for a while, and then said in disbelief: "Sugar cane?!"
Guan Ji originally thought that her brother must not know about this thing, but she heard the word sugar cane from Feng Yong's mouth, and her eyes suddenly widened: "Brother also knows about this thing?"
"How could I not know? Little..."
Feng Yong only looked at the sugar cane in his hand and almost spilled the words, but luckily he stopped in time.
What I loved most when I was a child was when the sugar cane started to smell sweet. The vast tracts of sugar cane forest in the village were simply greener than the green gauze tents. Not to mention people, even big animals got in. As long as they didn’t make any big noise, nothing could happen outside.
can not tell.
For children who lack snacks, this time is the happiest time.
The kid who usually doesn't like farm work the most, but once he heard that he was going to work in the sugar cane fields, he really liked it.
Whether peeling leaves from sugar cane or weeding, I will carefully look at every sugar cane. As long as it has insect eyes or has fallen to the ground, I can break it open and eat it.
When you take a bite, the sweet juice fills your mouth, and it feels like it is the most delicious thing in the world.
Sometimes I really can't find a suitable excuse, so I secretly push a sugar cane to the ground when the adults are not paying attention, but I don't dare to let it break, because when the sugar cane breaks, it will make a crisp sound.
When the sun is about to go down, adults carry sugarcane leaves on their shoulders, and there are often two or three sugarcane sticks stuffed in the sugarcane leaves.
The children following behind had small red wounds on their arms and hands cut by sugarcane leaves, but they didn't care. Instead, they would happily hold a piece of sugarcane, unwilling to put it in the sugarcane leaf.
The adults bear it.
"Good stuff!"
Feng Yong giggled while holding the sugar cane. While Zhao Guang and Guan Ji were stunned, he made a "click" sound and took a bite...
