Ding Tian's Ancient Life

"What are you doing?" Wang Zuo's handsome face looked stinky.

"I'm in the government office...I work overtime." Ding Tian suddenly felt guilty:

?,'

"I'm back from an errand, and I'm looking for you for dinner." Wang Zuo said in a bad tone:

You go cook it. "

Ding Tian entered the door a little timidly: "Damn!"

Compared to going in, he pushed out the door quite quickly: "You shot a tiger back?"

In the small courtyard of his new home, on a huge wooden board, there was a bloody... tiger lying on his back. It looked like he had been beaten to death... a tiger!

"This fierce tiger has caused disasters in the village. Mr. Wang... Your Excellency went to inspect the spring plowing. Passing by there, he took us up the mountain and chased it for two days before killing it." Wang Fugui said from the side: "There There are quite a few fat rabbits." At this time, the rabbits hadn't come out of their burrows all winter, and they were extremely fat.

Ding Tian had only seen tigers in zoos and on TV before, but now there was a tiger in front of him, it was a freshly slaughtered tiger, and the blood hadn't dried yet.

This is newly killed!

Tiger!

Protect animals!

This is still a wild tiger, look at the claws, look at the exposed teeth... oh my god

"Let's go cook!" Wang Zuo saw Ding Tian staring at a dead tiger endlessly, and immediately... became even more unhappy: "I'm hungry.

"I don't know how to make tiger meat..." Ding Tian hesitated: "I don't know how to make tiger bone wine either."

This thing, in the past, could only be watched eagerly through the iron fence, who would be willing to kill it?

Besides, who dares to kill this thing?

"You always make rabbits, right?" Wang Zuo changed the ingredients: "It's faster to cook, the meal is ready, I want to eat.,,

Ding Tian had no choice but to wipe his face, and went to the kitchen with two fat rabbits.

A large plate of stir-fried rabbit meat, hot and sour potato shreds, this is the dish for tonight.

Wang Zuo's staple food for dinner is rice. He seems to have not eaten for a long time, and it tastes delicious. Ding Tian looked at the dead tiger in the yard for a long time, then raised his head and asked Wang Fugui, "Is this tiger and rabbit given to me?" right?

"For you... right?" Wang Fugui wasn't sure: "I'll go in and ask."

After a while, Wang Fugui came out of the house: "Your Excellency said, you can also want a tiger, and he will come to your place for breakfast."

Ding Tian: "...丨!!"

It's not easy to take advantage of the cheap!

"Forget it, come on. My breakfast is made by Mrs. Jin. I can boil an egg for him at most." Ding Tian wiped his face: "I am also a person who has to work, and I also need to rest. my own life."

It can't be because I have to take care of your Lord Wang, I have to work in the public house, and I will be his cook when I come back, cooking for him from morning to night, right?

Then he wouldn't be Ding Tian.

Wang Fugui ran back to the house again, and came out after a long time: "This matter is easy to handle."

Ding Tian didn't know what they were going to do, anyway...he was as white as a dead tiger and a dozen fat rabbits.

Ding Tian, ​​the tiger, knew that he had to clean up as soon as possible, so he went to the next door and asked Aunt Jin: "Find a hunter who can take care of tigers, make tiger bone wine, cook tiger skin or something."

"Okay, I'll find someone for you." Aunt Jin knew that someone next door had sent a tiger over, and after hearing what Ding Tian said, she knew who to look for.

After Ding Tian came back, he put the rabbit in front of the dead tiger, and invited someone to cook together in a while.

After a while, Wang Zuo left angrily after dinner. He didn't talk to Ding Tian much, and Ding Tian didn't care.

After Wang Zuo and the others left, Aunt Jin brought two people over, an elderly man and a man in his prime: "Both of them were from hunters, and now they have settled down in Fucheng, but they haven't lost their craftsmanship. I opened a leather shop, and the craftsmanship of cooked leather is the one in Fucheng!" He said and gave a thumbs up, which means the first and the best.

"Then what, why are you here" to cook, hunted today,

"Okay, then I will trouble you two." Ding Tian trusted Aunt Jin.

"This tiger is not bad!" The old man circled around the tiger twice: "I shot it in the eye, but the skin didn't hurt. It hasn't moulted yet, and the skin is pretty good."

"Those rabbits can also help with the cooking." Ding Tian pointed to the compost rabbit: "I also want some rabbit skins." Okay, no problem! "

As expected, the father and son were skilled hands, their skinning speed was very fast, Ding Tian even shaved off the tiger's meat, bones, and tiger penis.

During the period, Ding Tian was also asked to buy two jars of good wine: "This tiger penis is a good thing, and the tiger bone is even more so, but it needs to be roasted before it can be brewed. I want the kind of strong wine that Lao Baigan has."

"Okay, I'll go buy it!" Ding Tian took the money bag and went to the intersection, where there were two wine shops.

One of them sells high alcohol, Laobaigan, Shaodaozi and Erguotou.

The other sells local wine, that is, low-alcohol wine such as sorghum wine and rice wine.

Ding Tian asked for Lao Baigan in four large jars, and the store delivered it to his home. The tiger had already been disassembled, and after the tiger bones were roasted, the fat was drained while they were still warm, and then they were put into the wine jar.

It took three large jars to finish.

Another jar contains tiger whips.

As for tiger meat, there are also a lot.

Ding Tian first gave the father and son two taels of silver, five catties of tiger meat, and two rabbits as a thank you gift. After sending them off, Ding Tian gave Mrs. Jin five catties of tiger meat and four rabbits.

For the rest, Ding Tian sent it to the government office overnight, ten catties to the magistrate Du, five catties to Master Du, and he also distributed the rest evenly to several leaders. It's only two or three catties, but it's Ding Tian's heart.

As for the rabbit meat, Ding Tian took it to the cell the next day, and at night they ate braised rabbit meat.

Ding Tian didn't dare to eat with them in the cell, but returned home, and sure enough, he saw Wang Zuo.

"What's for dinner today?" Wang Zuo was a little happier when he saw that he was back, and obviously he hadn't eaten.

"I'll go to the kitchen to have a look!" Ding Tian hadn't figured out what to do yet.

"I brought you some food, remember to cook and eat." Wang Zuo followed him into the house.

"You brought me food?" Ding Tian was a little surprised. Did he learn to bring his own ingredients?

"Stay with me, they don't like what they cook." Wang Zuo took it for granted: "It's better to bring it to you, and you cook it for me to eat."

Ding Tian was speechless.

After entering the kitchen, I realized that Wang Zuo really lived like gold and jade. There were two baskets of vegetables in the kitchen, fresh vegetables. At this time when they were green and yellow, these vegetables could only be potted plants, because they didn’t grow very big.

Rapeseed is as long as a palm; spinach is longer than rapeseed, but it is very tender, as well as coriander and cabbage.

The chives are quite long, with leaves as long as half an arm, but they are a little thin... It can be seen that they have not been fertilized, otherwise they will definitely not look malnourished.

Ding Tian simply fried scrambled eggs with leeks and yellows. The mushrooms were too late to soak, so the rapeseed had to be made tomorrow; the spinach and tofu soup was made, and Mrs. Jin bought the tofu. I guess it was made for him to eat at night...

Vinegar pepper cabbage, served with rice again.

Ding Tian ate several meals of rice with Wang Zuo.

I didn't think about rice before, because everyone in his era could afford it.

But only in ancient times did we know that rice was only eaten by rich and noble families, and ordinary people could not eat a meal of rice all year round.

Therefore, the staple food for farmers to receive distinguished guests is Ermimi, where millet is mixed with rice, and the rice steamed together is called Ermimi.

Ding Tian also bought rice to eat, but it was so expensive!

And if he ate with Wang Zuo, he always made ready-made rice... After he made two meals of rice for Wang Zuo, there was an extra rice vat in his family's warehouse.

It's still the kind of beautiful rice jar, exquisite, insect-proof... ah, it's a high-end rice jar.

One cold and one hot, one soup, richer.

Wang Zuo looked unhappy at the food: "I gave you so many rabbits yesterday, did you eat them all?"

"No, I'm giving it away." Ding Tian said, "And I think vegetables are more delicious than meat at this time."

In fact, I forgot to keep it... Anyway, I gave it to my colleagues, so I guess there is only some soup left now?

Wang Zuo knocked on the dining table and continued to "interrogate" Ding Tian: "Where's the tiger meat?"

"I don't know how to make that stuff either. Let someone who knows how to cook take it home and dry it before giving it to me." Ding Tian shrank his neck: "Tomorrow night, we will eat mushrooms and small rapeseed."

As far as Ding Tian knows, fresh shiitake mushrooms are not as delicious as soaked dried shiitake mushrooms.

"I don't know how to make the bird's nest I gave you?" Wang Fugui asked doggedly: "There are also white fungus..." At this time, there was no artificial white fungus, and they were all wild. Therefore, the ancient white fungus is a kind of Cherished ingredients.

How is it like Ding Tian at that time?

You can buy a lot of dried white fungus in any dry tune shop.

"Yes." Ding Tian puffed out his cheeks and sighed: "Isn't it ready when it's cooked?"

Wang Fugui choked for a moment, took the silver needle to test the poison in silence, and then invited Wang Zuo to eat.

While eating, Wang Zuo said again: "Come to your place for breakfast tomorrow."

This is to make Ding Tian remember to cook, not to ask Aunt Jin to make breakfast.

"Understood." Ding Tian speeded up his meal. Anyway, he would get up early tomorrow. He had agreed with Aunt Jin that he would not come over tomorrow. He planned to go to the cell to see what the prisoners had for breakfast.What is the breakfast of the jailers?

Now it's all right, there's no need to go, I have to be a cook for others.

Wang Zuo left like the wind after eating, it seems that he is very busy?

Ding Tian didn't care, and fell asleep after washing up, but he seemed to have forgotten something before going to bed?

The next morning, I got up and cooked some millet porridge by myself, and steamed a large plate of lying eggs.

All are farm eggs, rich in nutrition.

Wang Zuo came very early, almost when Ding Tian was about to lift the lid of the pot, he entered the door.

Sitting there still looking like waiting for the meal, after Ding Tian brought the food, Wang Fugui was still testing the poison with the silver needle, Ding Tian was depressed: "You eat with me every day, we are familiar with it? Why do you still use it?" Are the silver needles poking around?"

"This is necessary." Wang Fugui acted as if he was biting something and would not let go: "I don't feel relieved if there is no drug test."

Wang Zuo's expression was very calm: "I have been like this since I was a child."

There is no longer any bullying emotion in the tone, which shows that he is used to it.

"You use silver needles for drug testing?" Ding Tian's eyes widened: "Is it easy to use?"

Isn't this a legend?

"Of course it's easy to use." Wang Fugui said proudly: "This is the experience passed down by the ancestors."

Ding Tian pouted: "Nonsense."

Wang Zuo was used to bickering between Ding Tian and Wang Fu. He took this incident as a meal, took a sip of millet porridge, and ate an egg with chopsticks. Ordered sesame oil and soy sauce.

Compared with shredded pickles, this is obviously more advanced.

Ding Tian also picked up a laying egg, and ate the egg white on the outside, leaving the yolk inside.

As soon as he rolled his eyes, he asked for the silver needle in Wang Fu's hand: "Brother Fugui, please be a good boy, this silver needle can only be detected as a highly poisonous arsenic, why? Because arsenic There's a kind of sulfur in it... well, you don't have to know what sulfur is, just know it's not allowed."

"Impossible!" Wang Fugui didn't believe it.

Then, Ding Tian smiled and plunged the silver needle into the egg yolk in his bowl, and then pulled it out... Wang Fugui looked at Ding Tian in horror, as if he saw a little monster in the world.
