The ancient farming life of liberal arts scum

Shen Ge finally opened the letter sent by his uncle Shen Hong.

In June, when Shen Ge returned to Shenjia Village to marry Xun Feiguang, Shen Hongfa disapproved of the marriage in his heart, but Shen Ge was no longer that weak young man, even if Shen Hongfa disagreed, there was nothing he could do.

Shen Ge knew his uncle's temperament. Sure enough, during the few days of his marriage, he could often see his uncle sitting silently by the side, thinking of something, but it would never be joy and blessing.

Because of guilt in his heart, after receiving that flimsy letter, Shen Ge suddenly felt a little bit of nostalgia.

Xun Feiguang took the letter from his hand, took the knife beside him, fluttered his slender fingers, opened the envelope beautifully, and handed it back to Shen Singer, "No matter how much you look at it, you can't see a hole. Look, your uncle is not here."

After receiving the letter, Shen Ge took a long breath, reached out and took the letter out of the envelope, and looked at it carefully.

Shen Hongfa can read, but he can't write many words.

He entrusted someone else to write this letter, and it was extremely short, with only a few words in it. First, he was concerned about Shen Ge's body, and then he said that he had nothing to give to Shen Ge, so he asked Manzi to bring him a package of dried vegetables. Taste the taste of hometown, if you are homesick, talk about homesickness.

Just a few words, short paper and long love, Shen Ge let out a long breath, found Dong Xiaowu and asked: "Where do you put the dried vegetables?"

Niu Han brought back a bunch of things, "I guess they've been put in the warehouse, I'll find them for you right away."

Shen Ge waved his hand, "Go ahead, by the way, ask the chef to prepare clean pork belly for me, I'll cook later."

After Shen Ge finished speaking, he turned to Xun Feiguang and asked, "Brother Xun, shall we have a pot of hot wine later?"

Xun Feiguang nodded and agreed, "I'll help you."

After talking, the husband and wife walked side by side to the kitchen.

The General's Mansion has chefs specially invited from all over the world, and all of them have unique skills.Shen Ge's singing skills are good, but that's only for ordinary people. Among a group of cooks, his skills are very average. Xun Feiguang has eaten so many delicacies from mountains and seas, but the dishes cooked by Shen Ge are his favorite.

Chen Ge loved to tinker with side dishes in his previous life, but in this life, he picks them up again, and it gradually becomes a way of pastime for him. Occasionally, he can calm down quickly by cooking, so sometimes he likes to go to the kitchen to cook a meal seriously. meal.

When they came to the kitchen, Shen Ge found out the seasonings familiarly, while Xun Feiguang sat in front of the stove.

Don't look at Xun Fei's naked suit, he sits in front of the stove with a big horse and a golden knife, and burns the fire, and it burns well.

Chen Ge was moving on the stove, the skin of the fat and thin streaky pork faced down, and when it touched the hot oil, it made a "sizzling" sound, and then the skin slowly turned golden.

Take out the fried skin meat, put dried plums, dried chilies, garlic, star anise, aniseed, soy sauce, cooking wine, etc., and put the skin down in the drawer to steam. When the curling water vapor rises, slowly count the time.

After steaming the meat, start the pot separately, put in the bacon cut into large slices, deep-fry the fat in the bacon until it is translucent, then put in the patted onions, add pepper, stir-fry a few times on high heat, add coarse salt and wine Put the soy sauce to cook quickly.

Wash the pot, wait until the pot is hot, put cold oil, and put the green vegetables just picked from the ground into the pot with a sizzling sound.Shen Ge quickly stir-fried with a spatula. After a while, the green vegetables were quickly put on the plate after they were broken. Only oil and salt were added to the emerald green vegetables, which still exuded a fresh fragrance.

Shen Ge took out the braised and dried pork liver from the urn at the side, cut it into plates, put it on a snow-white plate, and took it out.

The braised pork was the first to be made, but it has been stewed for the longest time. The dried vegetables that have absorbed enough spices and oils have long been steamed and swelled, exuding waves of fragrance.

Shen Ge used a large towel to place the steaming bowl upside down in the large porcelain bowl. At this moment, the meat was on the bottom and the vegetables were on the top, trembling and emitting a strong aroma.

The wine doesn't need to be very warm, just put it in the water for steaming the meat and scald it. It will take out and put on the plate in less than a moment.

The plum blossoms in the general's mansion were more than half in bloom, and the two of them didn't think it was cold, so they got them cleaned up and ate in the pavilion next to the plum blossoms.

Shaoxin had already smelled the scent, and originally wanted to rub it for a while, but seeing Xun Feiguang and Chen Ge's appearance, he didn't dare to bother them.

He nudged Bai Liyi who was on the side with his elbow, and asked, "Baili, have you noticed that since the master regained his memory, he and Chen Ge'er have become more and more clingy."

"Could it be that this is not a good thing?" Bai Liyi evaded to the side, "Master and Second Master are serious couples, it's normal for them to stick together."

"You can't say that. Thinking about how dull and majestic the old man was, can you imagine what he looks like now?"

Bai Liyi asked back: "It's not like the master was born with that calm and majestic appearance, why can't you imagine it?"

"You really don't want to say, the master has maintained this appearance for too long, I have forgotten what he looked like when he was young!" Shao Xin slapped his thigh, and said in a low voice: "If it wasn't for this time the master was injured and returned to the age of 16, I would Can't remember anything."

While Shao Xin was talking, a faint voice came in from the side, "Why do you want to remember?"

Bai Liyi turned around and saw that it was Xun Jiu. He was startled, "When did you come here?"

"Just when you were discussing the stickiness between the master and the second master." Xun Jiu came over, "Have you been so busy lately?"

"Of course not, I'm just feeling emotional with Baili. There are so many things on my body now, which of you two is willing to share with me?"

"Thank you for your patience." Bai Liyi moved Shao Xin's hand away from his shoulder, "If you don't stare at the uncle and the second master all day, about time is enough."

Shao Xin was a little depressed, and turned to Xun Jiu, who silently turned his head away.

Boss Shao Xin was not happy, "You two can go leisurely, why bother to pose in front of my eyes and make me greedy?"

Bai Liyi glanced at him, "Who said the two of us are idle, haven't you seen the half-baked red gauze?"

"What is the red gauze used for?" Shaoxin took the opportunity to ask the question that had been in his mind for a long time, "I have wanted to ask you two for a long time, we have a good camp, and it looks a little ugly. Let me say, Even if you want to hang red during the New Year, you should hang lanterns, what are you doing with these soft red yarns?"

"Didn't the second master tell us to find a suitable girl and find a wife for the soldiers under his command? Could it be that you forgot?" Bai Liyi and Xun Jiu both turned their heads to look at Shaoxin suspiciously. If he dared to say that he had forgotten, he must have forgotten. You can get an annual gift from friends and partners.

Shao Xin's eyes lit up when he heard the words, he raised his voice and said hastily: "Of course I haven't forgotten!"

With a light cough, he said: "I just didn't expect you to find a suitable girl so quickly. Where is the girl now?"

"It's in the county town outside. The second master specially ordered us to post the girl's birthplace, age and other information first. If the soldiers look at someone, they can write down the girl's number. How long have you stayed?" On the first day of Lunar New Year, we will arrange for girls to come to the garden with signs, so that the two parties can see each other from afar."

"Of course, not only our soldiers are able to pick girls, but I also put their age, place of origin and other information on the soldiers who intend to participate in the marriage. If a girl likes which one, she will pay attention to the soldiers at the garden party. The wooden sign hanging on the body."

"Chen Ge'er came up with this idea?" Shao Xin knew who it was when he heard it.

Let unmarried men and women go to the garden to meet each other on New Year's Day, only their second master can come up with such a shocking idea.

Shen Ge didn't come up with this idea entirely on his own. He remembered the many dating shows in his previous life, and when he remembered it, he told Xun Feiguang that Xun Feiguang also agreed.

The girls who were listed in the newspaper have been carefully screened, there is absolutely no major problem with their character, and the family is not that bad.

Qing Lingwei is all from his own family. Shen Ge has seen their brief files. They are all good men in their prime, with good looks, tall stature, a lot of strength, and errands. The mother makes it so, so I have to screen it carefully.

Since the girl and Qing Lingwei had screened all the soldiers who wanted to marry, it would depend on their fate to see who they liked at the next garden party.

The girls are all from Nanguan Prefecture and nearby prefectures, and most of them are accompanied by their fathers and brothers or local young adults.After they come here, not only will they have free board and lodging, but even the accompanying father and brother can enjoy rice and meat dishes without spending a penny. A piece of money to go back home with the girls.

This kind of marriage has just begun, and there are not many girls and soldiers who have the courage to join in.

There are 310 girls in total, and [-] soldiers.Shen Ge did not avoid the embarrassment of these girls and soldiers, and specially invited married men and women to participate in the New Year's garden party. There will be delicious food, and there will be lion and dragon dances for praise.

Shen Ge had a detailed plan and wrote a plan on paper.Bai Liyi and Xun Jiu cooperated with each other and started to take care of related matters years ago, trying their best to end their first meeting perfectly.

Shao Xin and the others were severely dragged by Xun Feiguang to train for a few days, running with heavy loads, swimming, riding a boat, and surviving in the woods. Shao Xin didn't know where Shen Ge came up with so many clever ideas.

These trainings caused many soldiers to feel weak when they saw Shen Ge these days, wishing to take a detour.

In the eyes of all the soldiers, although the second master of his family is fair and clean, with a delicate appearance, and a perfect scholar, but there are endless ideas in his belly, and he can come up with countless troublesome ideas almost by turning his eyes, but this idea is not bad. It makes sense, even if the toss is not in vain.

Shen Ge came up with the idea to let Xun Feiguang train for nearly ten days. After ten days, he picked out a hundred people.

There were faint rumors in the Qing Lingwei that these people selected by Shen Ge were for some kind of special forces.

The guards in Qingling didn't know what special forces meant, but they knew the benefits of special forces - 100 taels of salary per year and weapons made of gold and fine stones. This was the basis.

This kind of treatment, even if you look at the whole Dayan, you can't find a second family. For a while, everyone's heart is half hot and half cold. Seeing Shen Ge, they don't know what it's like, their feet are trembling, and their hearts are both respectful and afraid. He didn't dare to bite the bullet and come forward, and he didn't dare to turn around and run away.
