Chapter 467: Human Victory Festival, Seven Vegetable Soup
At noon.
Chang'an City, Chunming Gate.
More than a dozen tough knights, dressed in the uniforms of the Forbidden Army and carrying horizontal swords at their waists, passed through the tall doorway in a dusty manner.
Chang'an is bustling with excitement on the seventh day of the lunar month.
The streets of Daozhengfang are full of bustling people and there are many shops on the streets, filled with the lively atmosphere of the New Year.
The hundred riders had no choice but to dismount.
Leading the horse and walking on the street.
"Pancakes, freshly baked pancakes——"
The vendors on the roadside were shouting hard, and the pancakes in front of them were steaming hot, exuding an alluring aroma in the cold air.
The riders haven't had lunch yet.
Smelling the fragrance, they all gathered together and bought cakes to satisfy their hunger.
When the vendor saw so many people coming, he immediately smiled and started getting busy with his hands.
Take advantage of this time.
Jia Wu looked sideways.
Next to the hawker, stood a young woman, petite in stature, who seemed to be the hawker's wife, cooking a pot of hot soup.
Jia Wu looked back and asked with a smile: "Today is 'Human Day', your pancakes should be selling well, right?"
"Master Jun, you are right.
The vendor was busy and said with a smile: "In this morning, I sold more than in the past three days."
Jia Wu smiled and said, "Business is so good?"
"Of course, it's the 'Man Victory Festival'!"
The vendor said: "Tonight, every household will eat pancakes in the courtyard, just to make the round pancakes face the round sky to commemorate Nuwa's patching up of the sky."
Just then.
The young woman next to me spoke: "Fellow military lords, would you like a bowl of seven-vegetable soup?"
She has a delicate appearance, and when she speaks, her voice is soft and waxy, and it sounds like she has a southern accent.
The hundred riders were all Guanzhong men. When they suddenly heard this little tune, their bones softened by two kilograms, and they all looked at her.
Being stared at by so many people.
The young woman's face turned red and she quickly lowered her head.
Jia Wu looked into the pot and asked curiously: "Little lady, what is this seven-vegetable soup? Why haven't I heard of it?"
The young woman raised her head and asked instead of answering: "Do you know why today is called 'Human Day'?"
The hundred riders looked at each other.
I thought how do we know? Everyone else calls it that, so we just follow suit... Besides, this is not the Eighteen Styles of the Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon, do you need to know?
Jia Wu seems to be the only one who likes women.
So he asked to save face: "How dare you ask for advice?"
"Master Jun, you're welcome."
The young woman said generously: "The "Sui Zhan" written by Dongfang Shuo of the Han Dynasty said that eight days after the end of the year, one day is chicken, the second day is dog, the third day is pig, the fourth day is sheep, and the fifth day is cow. Six days are horses, seven days are humans, and eight days are grains.”
"Therefore, today is 'Man's Day', also called 'Man's Victory Day'."
oops!
A cultural person?
The hundred riders looked surprised.
They didn't expect that an ordinary woman on the street would know so much... Unlike a rough guy like themselves, they could do it when they got on the bed and do it when they got off the bed.
The young woman continued:
"So now, you can't kill chickens on the first day of the first lunar month, you can't kill dogs on the second day of the lunar month, you can't kill pigs on the third lunar month, you can't kill sheep on the fourth lunar month, you can't kill cows on the fifth lunar month, you can't kill horses on the sixth lunar month..."
"The question is, what to eat on the seventh day of the lunar month?"
"Yeah, what to eat?" Jia Wu asked curiously.
"Of course it's seven vegetable soup."
The young woman smiled and said, "Of course, it will taste delicious if paired with my husband's pancakes."
The hundred riders suddenly realized.
It turns out that the purpose of going around in a circle is to promote the food of the couple, but this method is obviously more advanced.
Southerner.
They are all born to do business!
Jia Wu made the decision on the spot: "Okay! The little lady is right, please give us a bowl each."
"Okay."
The young woman filled the soup with a smile.
At this time, the pancakes were also out of the oven. The hundred riders ate the pancakes and the seven-vegetable soup. They tasted really good.
"Yeah, delicious!"
Jia Wu's mouth was full and he asked: "Little lady, how can you make this seven-vegetable soup? I have been waiting in Chang'an for many years and I have never seen anyone make it."
At this time, the hawker interrupted with a smile:
"You don't know, but Ji Nei's ancestral home is Jiangnan Road, which is next to Lingnan Road. This seven-vegetable soup is spread from there."
The senior year of high school has been silent.
Finally, he couldn't help it anymore and asked in as gentle a tone as possible: "My dear lady, I just noticed that you are extraordinary in speech? But have you studied in a private school?"
"The military master is laughing."
The young woman said humbly: "My son was originally a maid of the Chen family in Zhangpu County. Because I often accompanied the young lady, I got some superficial knowledge under the influence of my ears and eyes."
Turns out to be a maid?
Or a maid from a wealthy family?
The senior high school student clenched the edge of the bowl in his hand and even forgot to eat the pancakes, his cold face flushed.
"Lao Gao, why are you so excited?" Jia Wu came over and asked quietly.
"This reminds me of Xiao Cui!"
The senior high school student couldn't hide his excitement and whispered: "Xiao Cui is Miss Wang's personal maid, and she has a lot of ink in her belly. If she marries her, she will save money for her children's education in the future..."
Jia Wu was stunned.
After being stunned for a long time, he sighed: "You fucking think long term, I will serve Fang Erlang first, and you the second."
The senior high school student frowned: "Why did you submit to him first?"
Jia Wu glanced at him sideways.
"Fang Erlang can have sex for free in Pingkangfang, can you?"
The senior high school student's face froze, and he suddenly realized that something was missing. He turned around and looked around: "Huh? Where is Fang Erlang?"
Hundreds of riders immediately responded.
"I didn't notice, but I saw him coming just before entering the city gate."
Jia Wu seemed to have remembered something and slapped his thigh: "Damn it! This kid must have gone to find Miss Shishi!"
The hundred riders heard this.
Suddenly they shared the same hatred of the enemy.
"Whoops! Didn't Fang Er say that he would treat a guest when he comes back? But he went to have a private meeting with the oiran alone, which is simply a shame for Baiqisi!"
The third year of high school was the angriest.
He raised his neck, drank the seven vegetable soup, and stood up:
"Fang Erlang didn't keep his word. He promised me that he would find me ten of them!"
Jia Wu raised his head.
Looking at the thin-headed tuo, it looks like his waist is numb.
He curled his lips nonchalantly and said, "Lao Gao, keep some pancakes. There is a sheep kidney seller in front of you. You can buy them and eat them with pancakes."
High school student twists his neck:
"A certain person has the appearance of Lao Ai. One of them can beat ten of them. How can he care about the things outside his body?"
Jia Wu: "→_→"
Hundreds of Riders: “←_←”
