Ding Tian's Ancient Life

Chapter 24 Treating Guests, Recognizing People

Ding Tian took Cheng Da to the place where he arrived first, there was a big table for ten people, two tables, and he also sent food boxes to the yamen for the two people who stayed behind.

After a while, people came one after another.

At this time, Cheng Da's usefulness was demonstrated. He was very familiar with him, so he introduced them to Ding Tian one by one: "You know Lin Qi, Yang Li and Liu Sen went to Fucheng with the master, and they are not here. It's not my turn.,,

Ding Tian nodded, he has been here for a day, but he didn't see the two relatives, so he left with the county magistrate.

It's a good job to go to Fucheng, and follow the master to eat delicious food and drink spicy food.

Not many people came, only eighteen people, two staying at home, plus two leaving, there are 22 people, including Ding Tian, ​​23 people, counting the master, 24... 24 solar terms?

"This is Zhang Cailiang and Zhang Wenliang brothers; Gao Zhi, Du Feiguang..." Cheng Da introduced him one by one: "He Dali, Meng Chen, Zhang Long, Ren Qing, Lin Bai, Zhao Hu, Dynasty, Ma Han... . . . "

Ding Tian said hello one by one, everyone saw him as a 15-year-old boy, his lips were red and his teeth were white because of his youth, they all treated him as his younger brother.

"Don't worry, since we both work in the yamen, we will definitely take care of each other." Among them, Ren Qing and Lin Bai are the oldest, and they have a strong demeanor of big brothers.

As for the others, Ding Tian felt that they were more like soldiers than government servants.

Later, he heard from Cheng Da that they really came from the battlefield. They didn't want to be soldiers, so they said hello to the people above them, and they were arranged in the county government by General Xi.

The end is an iron rice bowl, and they have settled down in this county.

There were less than ten yamen servants who were familiar with Ding Dahai, and the others were added later, so Ding Tian had to establish a good relationship with them.

Taking advantage of this time of introduction, the waiter of the shopkeeper put all the food on the table.

Now that February [-] has passed, it is the time when the farmers are not harvesting. At this time, it is good to eat some green vegetables, such as bean sprouts grown by ourselves, or garlic sprouts and leeks grown in wooden boxes.

So Xiangyi Restaurant served them ten dishes.

Braised pork in brown sauce, potted carp, mutton stewed radish, chicken stewed mushrooms, pork ribs stewed dried beans.

Stir-fried bean sprouts with shredded pork, scrambled eggs with leeks, fried thousands of garlic sprouts, stewed tofu with miso.

One soup is cabbage soup. Although it is cabbage, there is a lot of oil and water in it, and there are not many green vegetables at this time, but there are tender cabbage in this soup, which makes everyone happy.

The staple food is big white steamed buns, which is rare.

In addition, the wine was also served. It was a soil-fired knife bought from the wine making workshop in Xinglong Village. It was brewed with pure grain and had a high concentration. It was the kind that people in the yamen liked to drink.

However, because of the war, the use of food for wine making is restricted.

So what they drink is the wine that was brewed six or seven years ago before the war, and it has been kept in the cellar, and now it is quite mellow.

"This is the first cup. I respect everyone. I am new here. Although I have the shadow of my father, I still need to work hard. I hope everyone will get along well in the future." Quite a lot, but he didn't learn it.

Moreover, few of these people can read... So at the beginning, he spoke more literary, making people think that he is a scholar, and then he switched to vernacular, which is more down-to-earth.

"Young man can talk." Ren Qing raised his wine glass: "Don't worry, everyone will be in... oh, you don't eat in the same pot with us, but you work in the same place, and take care of each other."

"Yes, take care of it, you should, you should!" The others also meant the same thing.

After drinking the first cup, you can use your chopsticks to eat.
