Sun Qian was speechless. Chen Xi's attitude towards life, from Sun Qian's point of view, was the perfect interpretation of a rich and noble son.
Never tire of eating fine food, never tire of fine food, act according to one's will, but restrain one's desires, hold power, but not indulge in power. This kind of mentality, this attitude towards life, not to mention other things, this kind of lifestyle is very It's hard for anyone to achieve it.
"Zichuan, don't talk about your attitude towards life, just your lifestyle, you can't do it without a very strong family background." Sun Qian sighed, "Not to mention anything else, just your cook , most people can’t afford it.”
Chen Xi laughed. In the late Han Dynasty, the shortage of materials could not be changed no matter what.
"A better life is always a personal pursuit, and this is my hobby." Chen Xi said with a smile, "Hey, when the food comes, why don't you pay attention to it, just sit on the floor and eat it here. Come on."
"What's so important about this?" Sun Qian was also a casual person. Although he came from Zheng Xuan's family, he learned benevolence rather than etiquette.
Chen Xi is not particular about it, and Xiliang warriors like Hua Xiong are not particular about it. After Chen Yun served a few dishes made from local materials, the three guys took turns grabbing the food with chopsticks. As for Chen Lan, I just cooked the food, but didn't serve it myself.
"Oh, I finally understand why the sage Confucius paid attention to 'never getting tired of fine food and never getting tired of fine food'. In addition to the etiquette of the nobility, he probably also wanted to have fun eating." Although Sun Qian only learned benevolence and not etiquette, he still It is rare to ridicule Kong Sage like this.
"I won't eat meat that's not cut right, hahaha." Chen Xi held a piece of fish that was beautifully cut but had irregular textures, smiled and said something joking, and then stuffed it into his mouth unceremoniously.
Chen Ying, who heard this sentence from a distance, was startled at first, and then quickly looked in the direction of Chen Xi, just in time to see Chen Xi stuffing the fish meat into his mouth, and he immediately didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"The owner of the family suddenly said this, which shocked me. I thought he really stopped eating." Chen Ying said to Chen Yun standing beside her, dumbfounded.
"Master, you are just teasing Saint Kong." Chen Yun smiled and said. After all, she was arrested by Fan Jian for a while and studied with Cai Yan under Fan Jian for quite some time.
In addition, Chen Yun originally had a good talent, and Liu Yun originally trained her in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so being caught by Fan Jian to study with Cai Yan also improved her knowledge a lot.
"Making fun of Saint Kong?" Chen Ying didn't understand at all.
"Well, Sage Kong once said, 'If you don't cut it straight, don't eat it.' It means that the texture of the meat must be straight, otherwise it won't be eaten." Chen Yun said with a smile, "Let you read more books, and the result will be You play all day long.”
"Then how do you calculate it as positive?" Chen Ying asked curiously. She really didn't have any talent for learning, but she was very talented for playing things.
"I don't know. When Mr. Cai taught this section, he specially cut a piece of it, but no one learned it." Chen Yun remembered that after Cai Yan finished the lecture, they did not leave. Cai Yan left them behind to take care of them. Rice, a plate of meat cut for each person is the so-called Zheng.
But Cai Yan only said that after eating. Chen Yun doesn't have a photographic memory and doesn't pay too much attention to the food. How could he know what righteousness is?
It was also that time that Chen Yun realized that Cai Yan could be quite scary if he was particular about it. However, Cai Yan's rice was pretty good. Very simple condiments made it taste pretty good, but the taste was a bit bland, but overall it was quite delicious.
"Fortunately, the head of the family is usually not very particular. He must have suddenly remembered this matter." Chen Yun said with a smile. She knew Chen Xi quite deeply.
Hua Xiong silently waved his chopsticks. Sage Kong had nothing to do with the Kansai people. He could not enter Qin if he traveled west. However, it was of no use. The Lu State was harmonized at the beginning of the Warring States Period, and the sage Yu Ze was not there either. Save your country.
Poor Hua Xiong had no idea what Sun Qian and Chen Xi were talking about. He could only fight with his own fish. Unfortunately, after eating several plates of fish, Hua Xiong was still far from full.
"Zijian looks like he's not full." Chen Xi said with a smile, placing his chopsticks horizontally and facing Sun Qian with a smile.
"Having such a meal on the march was beyond my expectation." Hua Xiong shaved his teeth with a fish bone and said, "The cook in Marquis Chen's family is really good."
"You can ask your cook to come to my house to learn." Chen Xi said with a smile, "And I won't eat dry food if I encounter better ingredients on the road. I didn't bring them two here for fun. Chen Xi Ying is the best cook in my family."
"Gongyou, I won't stay here for long. Although I am confusing the enemy, the general marching speed is still guaranteed. I just came to check the progress of the bridge construction and then see if you need anything." Chen Xi sat on the ground. He bowed his hand to Sun Qian and said.
"That's it. It's a pity that after this meal, there is no next meal." Sun Qian shook his head and said, "Please pay more attention to the rating matter. I will submit one as soon as I have time." The paperwork explains the situation.”
"You can rest assured that I will report the situation here to Yecheng when I get to the next station." Chen Xi said solemnly.
"Then I'll feel at ease." Sun Qian said with a smile, "Then I won't keep you here anymore. I'll keep watching the craftsmen doing the work. If you leave for a long time, I'll be a little worried. It seems that I am a good person. Something is wrong."
"This is a good thing, be responsible." Chen Xi said with a smile, and then with a straight face, he cupped his hands and said, "Take care, Gongyou, if you get sick due to climate problems, go back to Yecheng quickly. Don't drink the river water directly, boil it before drinking. "
"I still value my life very much. This bridge on the Yellow River is not my ultimate goal. There will definitely be another one on the Yangtze River. After my death, I, Sun Qian, will be with these two bridges and will be with them. All avenues of the Central Plains are united." Sun Qian said solemnly while holding his hands.
"The Master said, 'If you hear the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening.' I admire the benevolence and righteousness of the saints. Before, I felt that I could never find a way of benevolence and righteousness worth practicing in my life. Now, I have learned the way of benevolence and righteousness worth practicing in my life." That's OK." Sun Qian said with great solemnity.
"Congratulations, Gongyou." Chen Xi looked into Sun Qian's eyes. Infrastructure construction also requires someone to devote his or her life to it.
"But this is not enough. You still need to learn a lot. Fortunately, there is still a long time. Maybe after thousands of years, you will really be with all the avenues of the Central Plains." Chen Xi said with emotion.
