Return to the Song Dynasty

Great Song version of the ancient city of Chang'an!I'm coming!Seeing that there were no acquaintances around, Zhao Man immediately ran down the street having fun.He was the only one who set up stalls on the road. He studied and evaluated them one by one. When he came across a food stall, he had to go to battle in person and try them one by one.

"Hey, what a handsome son, why does he seem to be out of his mind?"

"Yes, what a pity."

Zhao Man: ... Do you think that if you cover your mouth with your sleeve, others won't hear you?

I don't know if it was because of the whispers of passers-by, or because the excitement was over, Zhao Man really restrained a lot, wiped the corners of his mouth, walked slowly, and slowly admired the Jingzhao of the Yuanfu Nian The prosperous scene of the government.

Zhao Man, who loves to join in the fun, walked to the center of Jingzhao Mansion, around the Bell and Drum Tower, in a short while.There are more stalls and shops here, and the signs on the street alone make people dizzy, and I don't know which one to look at.Compared with Huizhou City, which has only three main roads... Zhao Man closed his fan and rushed forward decisively... standing in front of the noodle booth.

I haven't seen it, I really haven't seen it, Zhao Man has really admired the skill of kneading dough for a long time, and today I finally saw the live production, it is definitely not to be missed when passing by.Huh?Why does this little guy look like me?Zhao Man looked at it carefully for a while, and suddenly found that the little noodle made by the noodle brother really looked a bit like himself, so funny!

"Well, yes, the eyes, the eyes are apricot eyes. Hey, yes, my brother's craftsmanship is good, very similar, very similar." An old man was standing at the other end of the stall and was describing the appearance of the person he wanted to face. . "That is, our dough maker Zhang's craftsmanship, which has been passed down from generation to generation, and we are the best in this Jingzhao Mansion." The little brother who kneaded dough was proudly looking at his signboard and introduced.

Zhao Man couldn't help but look up when he heard the voice, and when he looked up, he happened to meet the old man's eyes, and both of them were taken aback.The face man didn't hear the old man speak for a long time, so he also looked up. "Hey! Is this your son or grandson? Is he here to pick you up? He looks so similar!"

"...Old man, I don't have a son." The old man was silent for a moment, then slowly replied.

The old man's words made Zhao Man's small hopes completely dashed, and his eyes, like the bright starry sky, instantly dimmed. 'Hey, where is such a good luck, you can meet your relatives when you wander around the street.You should be making a movie.Zhao Man, oh Zhao Man, don't fantasize about unrealistic encounters~ Let's be the leader honestly.If I find a good wife in the future, I can also have my own home. '

Zhao Man was in a low mood, he didn't say a word, and stood with his head bowed. The old man also seemed to be lost in thought, looking into the distance.The noodle guy felt very embarrassed, and wished he could slap himself a few times, 'Calling you cheap, making you talk too much! 'The little brother was reviewing himself while working quickly, and after a while, a dignified and beautiful little girl was ready.

"Old man, here you are. This is the dough figurine you asked for. Are you satisfied?" Brother Zhang rubbed his hands, and handed the dough figurine to the old man.

"Oh, good, good." The old man was obviously still a little distracted, and after paying the money, he kept staring at the face.Look at the face man for a while, then look up at Zhao Man, then look at the face man, then look at Zhao Man again.Repeatedly, the face-faced brother scratched his head, but Zhao Man, the person involved, didn't notice it, because he was so absorbed in the sadness that his relatives couldn't find, he didn't look up at all.

"Here, here you are, do you like it?" A bunch of bright red candied haws wrapped in amber syrup suddenly appeared in front of Zhao Man.Zhao Man suddenly looked up, and it turned out to be the old man who bought noodles just now, trying to hand him a bunch of candied haws.

"Do you like it? If you like it, just take it and eat it." Seeing that Zhao Man took the candied haws in a daze, the old man smiled and said, "My daughter liked eating it very much when she was young." For some reason, Zhao Man could see the old man's smile There is bitterness in it.

"I saw you just now, but I was terrified. I thought I saw myself when I was young, and it seemed like my daughter ran out to play in boy's clothes." The old man was still talking to himself . "Kacha" Zhao Man couldn't resist the ruddy temptation of the candied haws, and lowered his head to take a bite, "Well, it's delicious, thank you, then I'm welcome."

Zhao Man, who is naturally optimistic, felt that he was healed instantly by this bunch of sweet and sour, delicious, natural and pollution-free candied haws.Looking at the old man's gray hair and the face that was quite similar to himself, Zhao Man couldn't help asking: "You miss your daughter, right? Your daughter is older than me? Are you married now?"

"Hehe" the old man couldn't help laughing out loud, "It's not that the old man asked you to grow up. My daughter is much older than you. Her son is probably as old as you." The old man said at the end, inadvertently looked at He glanced at Zhao Man. 'Like, it's so similar, except that the pair of phoenix eyes are different from Yoyo.If, if,...he, maybe he looks like this. '

Seeing Zhao Man smiling and eating deliciously, the old man smiled helplessly and shook his head, 'Why would he come to such a place?Alas, impossible. The old and the young, who met by chance, said goodbye. Before leaving, the old man told Zhao Man that his name was Wu Ying, and he was the county magistrate of Fanchuan County under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Mansion. Goodbye by fate.

Adhering to the spirit of the times of "coming and going is not indecent", Zhao Man also took the initiative to tell the old man that he joined the army as a recorder on Jingyuan Road, and now works in Huizhou Daying.After finishing speaking, Zhao Man got his wish and saw the old man's surprised jaw drop.Zhao Man smiled badly, and then he left and went to the meeting place that he had agreed with his friends——Yu Qinglou.

When the lights came on, the lonely old man was left alone on the corner of the street, holding the small noodle figure he had just kneaded, looked at Zhao Man who had gone away, sighed, and turned around silently.

In the darkness of night, the business of Yuqing Building is booming, and the tables are full. "Hey, it's a good thing we came early, or there is no room in the lobby." Zhao Man pulled Li Ping, and took his brothers to sit in the lobby on the first floor of Yuqing Building, eating and chatting, so happy .Zhao Man and the others didn't mind if they didn't grab the private room. The lobby was bustling, so there was nothing wrong with it.

"The Baifan building I passed by just now seems to be very famous." "Yeah, it seems to have better business than this Yuqing building." Two young soldiers were laughing and discussing.

Zhao Man answered subconsciously: "There is also a Baifanlou here? It must be a foot shop. The main store of Baifanlou is opened in Bianliang." Zhao Man took a sip of tea naturally, and when he looked up, he saw Li Ping stared blankly at himself.

Yes, how do I know that the main store of Baifanlou is in Bianliang?Zhao Man himself was stunned.Just don't know how to explain.A man dressed as a businessman on the table next to him poked his head over and received it with a smile: "This little brother is right. The main store of Baifanlou is indeed opened in Bianliang. Don't look at the store here. It’s big and grand, and the dishes... tsk tsk, it’s still more than a star and a half away from the original store.”

The man was talkative. Seeing that Zhao Man and everyone around him were listening to his explanation with great interest, the conversation immediately became lively. He continued to talk about the knowledge of Bianliang City, the famous restaurants in Bianliang, and Anzhou just now. Zhao Man, who seemed to be brought into the situation by him, couldn't help but said: "The wine at Zhangxiu Restaurant in Anzhou Lane is very good. But I prefer the green light from Shilou. It's sparkling, mellow and clear. "While speaking, he showed an expression of aftertaste.

"Oh? Little brother, you really know the goods! Your ancestors are from Bianliang, right? The green light in the building at this time is indeed extraordinary, but that is something that ordinary people from other places don't know. Even if you know, you can't be ranked. " The man said so vividly that everyone was startled, why do you pay so much attention to drinking wine?

I saw the man looked at Zhao Man with envy on his face, and continued: "I still asked my friend Huang Yuanwai to have a drink with him. The wine is really fragrant, and the aftertaste is endless! This little brother is old Qingqing, if you know it like this, you must have grown up in Bianjing, which is not comparable to us country bumpkins." After speaking, he cupped his hands at Zhao Man and laughed mischievously.

"Where is there, brother Taiwan has a great reputation, and I only know about it occasionally, but it is no better than brother Taiwan's travels and knowledge." Zhao Man hurriedly said haha, and continued to talk to others.In fact, Zhao Man has always wanted to confirm whether the scenes that pop up in his mind from time to time are real and whether they are derived from his real memories, but he just suffers from not having a suitable partner.

Most of the people he can get in touch with are officials, but Zhao Man himself has ghosts in his heart. Hearing that there are officials from Bianjing, let alone go to inquire, he dare not even meet them, for fear that his suspicions will come true, and he will be caught. If people recognize it, they will be arrested and disposed of.This time, I finally met a businessman who had been to Bianjing. It was not dangerous, and he liked to chat. Zhao Man didn't care that Li Ping and all his brothers were present.

"Xiongtai must have been to many places, it's rare and rare. Come, let me have a toast to Xiongtai." Zhao Man continued to chat with the businessman.Speaking of Bianliang's customs and customs, Zhao Man only said that the elders in the family told him, and he has always been yearning for it. Seeing that his brother came from Bianliang, he wanted to inquire about it.When the two talked about Renhedian, Jiangdian, and Cheese Zhangjia, the water drop spiral tasted delicious.What Zhao Man said was straightforward, and the businessman said that Zhao Man's family knew how to eat and knew how to eat, and hoped to have a chance to make friends.

Li Ping, however, became more startled the more he heard it. He knew that Zhao Man did not have any family members whose ancestors lived in Bianliang.According to what the businessman said, these shops that Zhao Man mentioned are all famous shops in Bianliang, and they should not be affordable by small households.In fact, in the past two years in the army, everyone has felt more and more the mysterious disobedience in Zhao Man.Even Zhang Laoxianggong once said that Zhao Man's intellectual demeanor really does not look like he came from the countryside.

Before Li Ping had finished contemplating this room, Zhao Man asked about Zhenpinxuan again.Ask if Zhenpinxuan will sell rings with a lotus flower pattern?The businessman became even more excited when he heard this. He slapped his thigh when he met an old acquaintance in a foreign land: "Little brother, your family is really knowledgeable. Zhenpinxuan's jewelry is the best, but I haven't paid attention to his family's patterns. There are so many patterns, and you can also design and customize it yourself..."

The mouth was full of foam, as if it was an advertisement for the store opened by his family.Guests at several tables around stretched their necks and pricked up their ears to listen.In ancient times, there was little entertainment and the transportation was not well developed. Many people stayed in one place all their lives.It's not easy to hear a little bit of the customs and customs of Bianliang, Tokyo, and I can play a pot with my wife and children again when I go home.

Zhao Man was a little disappointed that he didn't get a definite answer, but fortunately, this time has already gained a lot.At the very least, it proved that these people or things that suddenly appeared in my mind were real and reliable memories.The rest is to find your own family members based on these memories.

"Alas~" Zhao Man picked up the wine glass and sighed involuntarily. Looking at Li Ping's doubtful eyes, Zhao Man could only shake his head silently, without saying anything, let alone explaining.Some things, the more you know, the more dangerous it is. Of course, Zhao Man didn't want to hurt his good brothers who were born and died together.
