59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.
Chapter 55 Family Heirloom
"Still cursing!"
When Chen Feng came back, the people next door were still cursing.
Thanks also to this auntie, he didn't have to become a national treasure and be surrounded by a group of aunties and grandmas.
Calculating the time, it lasted for more than half an hour.
Hearing her strong voice, he estimated that he could scold her for more than a day.
The elders of the Jia family and the younger generations of the Jia family are going to suffer a lot!
"came back."
The old lady was in the front yard, watering the cabbages planted in the courtyard.
Other compounds are similar, leaving an aisle and planting vegetables in the open space as much as possible, and then having children or the elderly guard the house to prevent theft.
The cabbages in the front yard were planted in late August. After going through the germination and seedling stages, they are now almost forming balls and will be mature in another ten days or so.
In winter, eating pickles and kimchi has been a way of life in the north for thousands of years.
The history of pickled cabbage in China is very long, and sauerkraut has existed as early as the Shang Dynasty.
In the Book of Songs, there is a line that goes “There is a hut in the middle of the fields, and melons on the border. They are peeled or pickled and presented to the emperor’s ancestors.” Zu (菹) means sour cabbage.
Jia Sixie's "Qimin Yaoshu" introduces the method of making sauerkraut in detail.
(Both pickles and kimchi are pickled foods, both are a type of sauerkraut, but kimchi is better in taste, being sour, spicy, crispy, tender and chewy.)
"Grandma, don't make pickles this year, just make kimchi."
Chen Feng didn’t quite understand the technical differences between pickles and kimchi, but he knew that sauerkraut fish was delicious.
In addition, the pickles are dry and salty and really taste bad (in fact, pickled vegetables and bamboo shoots are also a famous dish).
"Okay, it's up to you."
The old lady said dotingly.
Chen Feng took a look at the vegetable garden and thought it would be better to plant fruit trees, such as apple trees, jujube trees, peach trees, pear trees, etc.
The entire front yard belongs to the Chen family. Most of the neighbors and their families in Compound No. 93 are chatting in the middle courtyard. In theory, the Chen family can separate a passage and turn this place into a private courtyard.
I don’t know why the old man didn’t buy a large compound with a single household, but instead bought this compound that was transformed from the Military Control Commission.
Wouldn't it be more troublesome if there were too many people and too many mouths?
Thinking of this, Chen Feng's eyes flashed.
Could it be that this garden has a secret that he doesn't know about?
"Grandma, I put the peanut oil in the cupboard, remember to use it for cooking!"
"Okay, it can be used for a week." said the old lady happily.
The corners of Chen Feng's mouth twitched.
The Chen family, with eight people in three households, received a total of 24 taels of oil each month, which was just enough to meet their living needs.
When people lack oil, water and fat, they appear thin and are more susceptible to illness, resulting in physical weakness, etc.
No, we must get more oil and water.
Chen Jianguo, Chen Hao and Chen Li were not at home.
In all likelihood, it was their second uncle who took them out to play.
Chen Jianguo was willing to spend money on his three nephews. Most of the picture books for Chen Feng and the others were paid for by him.
At the same time, sometimes I would bring them some steamed buns to prevent them from going hungry.
When we arrived at the main room, the old man was holding a dagger in a daze.
"Grandpa, what kind of antique is this?"
Chen Feng walked forward and saw the patterns on the dagger, his eyes suddenly brightened.
There were many patterned steel refrigeration weapons in ancient China, and each one that has been preserved is a national treasure.
Because the casting technology of the patterned blade is extremely complex and difficult, and the manufacturer is extremely secretive, only a few people have been lucky enough to obtain it since ancient times, so it is extremely precious.
"Grandpa, let me see."
The old man smiled and gave him the dagger.
Chen Feng looked at the blade and said in amazement: "The blade is so well preserved, is it newly made?"
The old man pointed at the handle and said, "Look at the color of the handle. The color of golden nanmu wood within a hundred years will be relatively bright, and a deep golden color like this means it is at least hundreds of years old."
"The patterns of golden nanmu will grow over time. Ordinary nanmu will have its fragrance dissipate in a few years. The better the quality, the longer the fragrance will last. For example, this piece of nanmu has maintained its fragrance for 600 years. It is the best of the best."
Chen Feng was half-believing and half-doubting. He did smell the fragrance, but he was skeptical about the old man's statement that the knife handle was six hundred years old.
Because as far as he knows, the older the golden nanmu is, the more crystals there are on the surface (that is, golden threads), the thicker the patina, and the weaker the fragrance.
This rich and refreshing fragrance is more like that of Phoebe nanmu, which is about one year old.
On the other hand, the patterned steel with such a good blade could not be an ancient item.
Even stainless steel will rust, let alone ancient iron smelting technology.
"Grandpa, is this thing expensive? If it's not expensive, give it to me for self-defense."
The old man hesitated for a few seconds, but still nodded with a smile and reminded: "This is my Chen family heirloom, you must not lose it."
Seeing that he was serious, Chen Feng agreed.
He put the dagger back into the scabbard and prepared to go back to his room to test the blade.
Just use a few pieces of paper to cut it easily.
Income space, placed above the sun tree.
I received a message in my consciousness and was stunned.
【Meteorite steel dagger/1 item】
[Comment: It was created 569 years ago. Although it is mixed with some ordinary metals, it still has the potential to become a super cold weapon. ]
“It really is a family heirloom!”
He muttered to himself and took it out again to look at it carefully.
The blade of the dagger is very exquisite, with clusters of textures like patterns.
After studying it for more than ten minutes, he came to a conclusion: "It is very suitable for killing fish, skinning and grilling in the wild!"
Fighting and killing are not suitable for him.
The most important things in life are to eat well, drink well and sleep well.
The first small goal: eat enough (accomplished).
Next goal: make money (to be done)!
At around 11 o'clock in the morning, Chen Jianguo came back holding Chen Li and Chen Hao.
"Mom, I have half a bottle of Luzhou Laojiao and half a pound of braised pork. For lunch, you can fry some duck, knife fish and some shrimps. Dad and I will have a drink."
The old lady said unhappily, "You're down for one drink, and you're still drinking with your father?"
"Mom, I can't do that. You can have a few drinks with my dad." Chen Jianguo said with a wicked smile.
"You're itching, aren't you?" the old lady cursed angrily.
The old man asked in full vigor in the room: "How old is this cellar?"
Luzhou Laojiao started pilot industrial production in 1957, Moutai started industrial production in 1959, and Fenjiu started industrial production in 1963.
After industrialization, the output of these famous wines increased significantly and the use of grain was greatly reduced, but the process and raw materials have undergone major changes. In the eyes of old drinkers, the taste has also changed.
Therefore, there is a saying in later generations that traditional wine is dead and what remains is industrial wine.
Traditional Daqu liquor is made by natural inoculation, solid fermentation of grain clinker, specific fermentation containers, and solid distillation in steamer barrels. Only when the core is fully present in the process can it be Daqu liquor, and only then can it be traditional liquor.
The old man is also a glutton and obviously prefers traditional soju.
"Let me see, it's 55 years old, three years old in the cellar." Chen Jianguo said, holding the wine bottle.
"Wife, cook less." The old man said immediately.
