The trip starts from Yongliang land and checks in

Chapter 179 The Lychee Story

It was morning when we set off, and Zhang Xiao entered the territory of Jinghong City, Shuangxibanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture. It was already evening, and Zhang Xiao temporarily parked the caravan, beside the national highway a few hundred meters away from the entrance of Jinghong City.

"Okay, tomorrow morning I'll take you to the beautiful XSBN~~" "Damn it, what's for dinner? I want something delicious!"

Zhang Xiao smiled confidently. Now, for a chef like him, it is not easy to cook a delicious meal. The difference is that it is really confusing to choose what to cook, after all, he knows too much.

"Then what would you like to eat, ma'am?"

Seeing this, Chen Xi frowned cutely, curled her lips, and pretended to be very depressed and said: "I don't know, who made my husband so omnipotent that I have difficulty choosing!!! "

Seeing that Chen Xi cooperated with him so much, Zhang Xiao hugged her into his arms, and then leaned against the head of the bed.

"Madam, let me tell you, how about choosing one of the 10 major cuisines and having a few meals at will?"

Chen Xi happily buried his head in Zhang Xiao's arms, stretched out his little hands, and kept drawing circles on his chest.

"How about we eat Sichuan food?"

But after a while, she vetoed the decision again: "Forget it, suddenly I don't want to eat too spicy food, how about we eat something lighter?"

"That's good, there are more light cuisines, then let me go to the refrigerator to see our food reserves."

After speaking, he let go of Chen Xi, stood up and jumped from the bed to the floor, then walked towards the refrigerator with bare feet, and Chen Xi quickly got off the bed, and followed Zhang Xiao to the kitchen with his bare feet.

"Let me see, there are two chickens left, some abalone, some pork, and some shrimp, right!"

Standing in front of the refrigerator, Zhang Xiao clapped his hands violently, looked back at Chen Xi, and said pleasantly, "Why don't we eat white snow chicken and lychee shrimp balls? I remember that the lychees you bought last time are still left?"

It is said that this lychee was bought while visiting Lugu Lake, so Chen Xi fell in love with the flavor of lychee. The other reason is that lychee has many benefits for women.

Eating it can cool the five internal organs, eliminate lung qi, nourish true yin, and rejuvenate.People who are prone to allergies will experience allergic symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea, rash and itching after eating fresh lychees;
Litchi contains more sugar, which can replenish energy and strengthen the spleen and stomach.You can eat some in moderation, which is good for your body.

Lychee meat is rich in vitamin C and protein, which can help enhance the body's immune function and improve disease resistance. Lychee is rich in sugar, and eating some in moderation can calm the nerves and strengthen the spleen and stomach.

When Chen Xi heard Zhang Xiao ask about litchi, he hurried to the bedroom and brought a bag.

"Yes, but the last time I bought it at Lugu Lake, I ate it all. We bought it when we passed by a small market town today. Have you forgotten?"

Zhang Xiao smiled. He really forgot about it. He bought the lychee from a small stall on the side of the road. After all, he was driving all the time. It’s normal to forget some things. He quickly waved his hand and called the drone outside. Come in.

Naturally, drones can't come in when they're making out, but he's going to cook later, not to mention that he has to share a knowledge point with the people in the live broadcast room.

"Then go and rest for a while."

After talking to Chen Xi, he put the bag of lychees on the kitchen counter, and then pointed the drone at the lychees and the ingredients he just took out.

"Everyone, on a whim tonight, I want to make some light dishes, haha, I will teach you how to make white snow chicken and lychee shrimp balls.

But now, let me talk about this lychee. I wonder if you have heard a poem by Du Mu, a poet of the Tang Dynasty: Looking back at Chang'an, there are piles of embroidery, and thousands of gates are opened on the top of the mountain. "

Hearing from Zhang Xiao that he wanted to make two dishes that he hadn’t cooked before, the audience in the live broadcast room were eager to try them. You must know that Zhang Xiao’s cooking skills have been personally tasted by several fans who visited before, and they gave high praise , so no matter whether they can prepare the ingredients now, at least they have to write down the recipe.

But for the few poems Zhang Xiao said, most of the audience who have already returned the Chinese knowledge they learned before to the teacher, how could they know, let alone they are not sure whether they have really learned it.

"I don't know, I don't know, I don't understand!"

"It's useless to ask me about this kind of thing. I'm a sports student, haha!"

"It seems to describe Concubine Yang Gui. I seem to have heard it somewhere before."

"There are lychees in it, is it related to Brother Xiao's plan to introduce lychees to us?"

Zhang Xiao also just asked casually, smiled and said: "Actually, there is a little story behind this poem. It is said that Yang Guifei likes to eat lychees. Lychees from Lingnan.

But the traffic at that time was much worse than it is now. It was thousands of miles from Lingnan to Chang'an. If the transportation was slow, the lychees would rot.

So, in order to win the smile of Concubine Yang Gui, our Tang Xuanzong ordered the fast horse to send the lychees from Lingnan to Chang'an day and night. Just to make the concubine smile, this move can compete with the "Princes of Fenghuo Opera". "

"Do you know? It is recorded in the "New Tang Book Biography of Concubine Yang Guifei": "The concubine is addicted to lychee, and she must want to give birth to it. She rides it and sends it. After traveling thousands of miles, the taste has not changed. It has arrived in the capital. "Concubine Yang loves to eat lychees, but lychees tend to change their taste. At that time, there was no air transportation, so they could only rely on postal delivery, which is equivalent to the current land express delivery."

"So, how far did the courier (postman) in the Tang Dynasty travel in a day? According to the regulations of the Sui and Tang Dynasties: Postposts are divided into three types: land postposts, water postposts, and waterway mergers. Post horses, post donkeys, post boats and post fields. The Tang Dynasty also had express regulations on the itinerary of the post post. When the book is late, the person may die) It is required to drive 6 miles a day; pedestrians travel 180 miles a day; when sailing against the current, travel 300 miles on the river, 500 miles on the river, and 50 miles on the other; 40 to 50 miles when going downstream This speed is not inferior to the current courier. The important thing is that the courier is run by the state government, and all expenses come from the treasury. In the law of the Tang Dynasty, the penalties for various mistakes in the postal process were stipulated in detail. A slight mistake , will be severely punished.”

"For example, the postmaster must report the death, loss and fertility of the posthorse every year, and report the expenditure situation. If there is any death or loss of the posthorse, the postmaster is responsible for compensation; if the station staff and horses are deducted privately, it will be "one hundred sticks". Ding’s punishment was even stricter. The Tang Dynasty stipulated that when a postman arrives at a post station, he must change his horse and change his course. Hundreds; if the document is late, it will be eighty sticks for one day, doubled for two days, and so on, the heaviest punishment is two years of imprisonment. If it is an urgent military document that is delayed, the crime will be increased by three degrees."

"If you lose the war due to the delay of the letter, you will be sentenced to hang. This is much stricter than the current express delivery. Therefore, there have been many Yiding uprisings in history. For example, during Tang Wuzong's time, Suzhou (where the government is today) Gansu Jiuquan) Yi Ding Uprising. The leaders, Si Guozhong and Zhang Zhong, were desperate prisoners. They fought from Suzhou to Shazhou, and received support from various post households along the way. The government did not get information or received false information. The information was panicked and at a loss, but the rebel army "stretched their soldiers mighty", "flew thousands of miles, and arrived in three nights". The loss of troops and generals of the Tang government shocked the rulers a lot."

"This is fairly normal, after all, delaying the war is a big deal!!"

"But it's still not very humane. It can only be said to be quite harsh."

"Tsk tsk, Tang Xuanzong is really, just abusing resources to satisfy a concubine's selfish desires."

"Yes, but it is such a strict post system, such an important national resource, the emperor did not use it to do things related to state affairs (or the emperor foolishly thought that this was state affairs), but gave it to himself A woman delivers snacks, the country is undefeated, so what should I do? Du Mu's "concubine smiles" has a deep meaning, because most of us know that in the Spring and Autumn Period, King You of Zhou smiled for his concubine Bo, lit the beacon fire, and led to the death of the country (Fenghuo opera princes). After reading this sentence, readers can easily think of this well-known story."

"However, no matter how much the author of this poem, Du Mu, cared about the state affairs, he only ended up with "a dream of Yangzhou in ten years, and won the reputation of a brothel". In such a historical period, no matter how talented people are It's helpless."

After telling the story, Zhang Xiao glanced at Chen Xi who was leaning on the table and leaning on his chin, listening with gusto.

"We are not as awesome as Tang Xuanzong, so we can only drive leisurely and come all the way from Kunming to buy lychees for my wife, haha.

However, although this is the so-called love story of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, it also shows from the side that lychee is indeed a fruit that people love and cannot let go. You must know that lychee appeared in the Tang Dynasty.

It is reasonable to say that lychee is a kind of fruit that women have to eat. Let’s not talk about the effects of nourishing the brain and enhancing immunity. Very attractive, right? "

This time, the female fans who don't usually post barrage in the live broadcast room, all erupted one by one.

"Brother Xiao, I'm going to give birth to a monkey for you. Alright, the opening remarks are over. Brother Xiao, let's talk about these two functions."

"Well, sister-in-law, don't be jealous, haha, brother Xiao is going to give benefits to our group of girls, hurry up and talk!"

"I'm so envious of my sister-in-law. With such a good boyfriend as Brother Xiao, my little boy is actually using the king's pesticide!!!"

"23333, let Brother Xiao hurry up and talk about those two functions, let's talk about these things in private in the female group!"

Seeing these bullet screens, Zhang Xiao frowned, and burst out laughing. He didn't expect these girls to even build a girl fan group in private.

"No, I said you guys, you guys built a girl fan group and didn't pull me into it, isn't that unreasonable??? Haha."

"By the way, fellow males, don't blame me if your girlfriends clean you up when you go back home. This is a private discussion among them."

Zhang Xiao's face was full of schadenfreude, he peeled a lychee casually, stuffed the white, juicy and tender flesh inside into Chen Xi's mouth, and then continued.

"About freckles, the main reason is that lychees are rich in vitamins, which can promote the blood circulation of capillaries, prevent the occurrence of freckles, and make the skin smoother.

As for beauty, I can say that lychee is a fruit that can beautify the skin. There are a lot of vitamins and trace elements in this fruit. After eating, the blood flow in the capillaries will be accelerated, which can effectively reduce pigmentation and other skin diseases. The effect of whitening and nourishing the skin is very obvious.

Fans in the live broadcast room, if the boy is still single and wants to hook up with a girl, then hurry up and buy lychees. This is much more practical and meaningful than the roses you send.If a girl doesn't have a boyfriend, then you should hurry up and buy lychees, keep your skin smooth and delicate, and go outside to flirt with boys, haha.

However, I would like to remind you solemnly that eating too much lychee is not okay. As the saying goes, "one lychee can hold three fires", if you eat too much lychee, it is easy to get angry, especially if you have pharyngitis and chronic tonsillitis People who eat more lychees will increase their virtual fire.

Moreover, the hypoglycemia caused by eating too much lychee is actually lychee disease. The main symptoms are pale complexion, sweating, dizziness, fatigue and heart palpitations. Some people will also experience symptoms such as hunger, thirst, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Convulsions or coma.

As far as I know, a 7-year-old boy in Guangzhou recently fell into a coma due to hypoglycemia after eating 20 lychees on an empty stomach. Fortunately, he was rescued in time and the child was out of danger.Are lychees really that dangerous?Eating lychees for many days in a row, will you really suffer from "lychee disease"?

Everyone pay attention!There is such a thing as "lychee disease"

The first thing to emphasize is that "lychee disease" does exist, referring to an acute neurological disease that often breaks out during the litchi harvest season.Patients are often accompanied by symptoms of hypoglycemia and epilepsy.

In theory, eating lychees on an empty stomach may indeed cause hypoglycemia.Xia Yuhan, deputy director of the Nutrition Department of Ningxia Medical University General Hospital, explained that although lychee diseases are rare, it is not recommended to eat lychees on an empty stomach. The coma symptoms in the small patients in the case were caused by hypoglycemia after eating too much lychees on an empty stomach.

Speaking of this, some of you may want to ask, lychee tastes sweet, and it feels that the sugar content is sufficient, how can there be hypoglycemia?In this regard, Xia Yuhan explained that the sweetness of lychee is indeed very high, and its sugar content exceeds 16%, but most of these sugars are fructose, which is not absorbed by the human body. "

"The human body is a relatively stable and balanced internal environment. If a large amount of fructose is taken into the body, in order to maintain a balanced state, insulin will be stimulated and 'forced' to secrete excessively, causing the body's blood sugar to drop, resulting in dizziness and sweating. , palpitation and other symptoms of hypoglycemia."

"And beware! Unripe lychees are poisonous!! Two of these toxins are higher in unripe lychees and less in ripe lychees."

"I still remember the description of an article called "Litchi"."

"Mother burst out laughing. She kept stroking the lychees with her muscular hands, then cut the skin of the lychees with her little thumbnail, and carefully peeled off the skin without letting the skin fall off. She held the lychees in her palms, as if holding A chick that had just cracked its eggshell looked at it lovingly, reluctant to swallow it, and kept saying to me: "How did you say it grew?Why is there such white flesh in the red skin? "After all, it is the first time to eat, after all, it is delicious! The mother is as happy as a child."
