Chapter 244 The Forbidden City
June 26, Wednesday.
Du Shouyi took a day off today to accompany Xu Weimin and Xu Weiliang to the Forbidden City.Gong Xiaobei had just finished working in the workshop and returned to the Propaganda Department. He still had a lot of work in his hands, and he really couldn't get away.
At the ticket office at the gate of the Forbidden City, Du Shouyi met Zhou Huaihai and three more. He stretched out three fingers from a distance, and Zhou Huaihai and his two friends laughed when they saw them.
"I've met you three times in the past few days, what's going on?" Zhou Huaihai walked over and asked with a smile.
"Why don't you say that Kyoto is a village? We'll see each other after a stroll in the village."
Xu Weimin and Zhou Huaihai are both sophomores, and Xu Weiliang has just finished the college entrance examination.After introducing each other, the six young people came together.
The Forbidden City is just that if no one takes it with them, it's just an empty courtyard.But it was different with Du Shouyi.
He is not only a well-read carpenter, but Li Jixiang is standing behind him?The allusions and allusions in this big 'siheyuan' came alive immediately after he explained them.
Halfway through, Xu Weiliang joked, "Have you lived in it before? How do you know so much?"
Du Shouyi rolled his eyes at him, and said, "You're scolding me, aren't you?! Okay, you don't need to use dirty words when you scold people."
Everyone pondered, who lives in the Forbidden City?Except the emperor is the eunuch.After thinking about it, everyone laughed.
"No, no." Xu Weiliang explained with a smile, "I mean you are too familiar."
"Don't explain. An explanation is a cover-up, and a cover-up is the truth. You guys commented, did he scold me just now?"
"I scolded, I scolded." Several people began to boo.
"Hahaha. This sentence is interesting. I have to write it down in a small notebook. An explanation is a cover-up, and a cover-up is the truth. Well said." Zhou Huaihai laughed aside.
At that time on the Great Wall, Zhou Huaihai only knew that Du Shouyi was a relative of Ning Yuanshan.Ning Yuanshan's job title is not high, but he has a good reputation in the army, so he is relieved to let his sister play with them.
But looking at it today, Du Shouyi is really not a simple person.From architecture to history, from political system to harem rumors, there is nothing he doesn't know.And he came at his fingertips, with witty remarks, and the words were not boring at all.It can be seen that the breadth and depth of knowledge.
But I heard that he was just an ordinary worker in the factory, which is a bit unbelievable.
After a day of fun, the few people made an appointment to meet again tomorrow.This time Du Shouyi won't join the team. They are the children of high-ranking cadres, so they belong to the same circle.
Zhou Huaihai's character is guaranteed, but Du Shouyi can only endorse him alone, the other two are not familiar with him, and
In the evening, Du Shouyi went to Xu's house again, and explained the situation to Uncle Xu after he got off work. It's not as simple as playing with someone's child.
At the same time, at Zhou's house in the compound, a conversation about him was also taking place.
Zhou Huaihai felt that Du Shouyi was quite mysterious, so he went to ask his father for advice.After describing what he saw and heard today, he asked:
"Dad, who do you think Du Shouyi is? How could he be a worker?"
"Him?!" Deputy Chief Zhou thought for a moment and asked, "Have you met Ning Huhu's two children? What do you think of them?"
"I haven't been in contact for a long time, but I have a very good impression. Especially that brother." Zhou Huaihai hesitated for a while, and said: "To be honest, don't be unhappy, I think he has an aura similar to yours. "
Deputy Chief Zhou laughed after hearing this, and said, "You don't think highly of him?! I heard that after Ning Huo left, these two children were taught by Du Shouyi. Your brother Zhang and him are chess friends. Some understanding, you can ask him when he comes to teach your sister this Saturday.".
Thursday, June 27.morning.
"Ding, the host's reward for signing in today is 'Wufangzhai' Pinghu bad eggs X100."
Du Shouyi was a little puzzled when he saw the bad guy.Maybe it's a matter of probability, the system has registered a lot of Jiangsu and Zhejiang style niche dishes this month, ranging from choked shrimp to bad eggs.
However, bad eggs are not new to Kyoto and can still be seen on the market.Pinghu Zaodan was also presented to the palace as a tribute.
The three places that are better at making bad eggs are Shanzhou in Henan, Pinghu in Zhejiang and Yibin in Sichuan.The bad guys in Shanzhou don't understand it, so they can't judge. Here we only talk about the latter two places.
The bad guys in Pinghu and Yibin are very different.Pinghu uses the "yellow grains" used to make rice wine; while Yibin Xufu Zadan uses the "white grains" left after brewing baijiu, which is directly related to the wine-making culture of the two places.
But "bad" is not the decisive factor, the difference between the two is mainly in the production process.
The production time of Pinghu bad egg is about five months, while that of Yibin will be much longer, at least one year, and the taste of bad egg that has been fully fermented for about two or three years is better.
As for which of the two bad guys is better?Hehe, isn't it embarrassing to ask such a question about such a niche food?
The bad eggs were not very conspicuous, so Du Shouyi took out two for lunch for Xiao Bei to try.
"You bastard?" Xiao Bei was obviously surprised. "Dad used to buy them when I was young."
"Then you didn't tell me earlier? I told you I would have gotten it for you earlier." Du Shouyi began to brag shamelessly again.
Gong Xiaobei picked up the soft eggshell with his chopsticks with a smile, and said, "It's been so many years, if I didn't see it today, I wouldn't even remember it."
"How can my father-in-law like to eat bad eggs?"
Xiao Bei gave him a blank look, but she still replied: "It was influenced by Mr. Da, Dad was his student for a while."
"Oh, that's right." Du Shouyi understood.
Mr. Da is the honorific title for Mr. Lu Xun.Mr. Lu Xun does not want to mention that he is from Shaoxing, but the taste memory of the bad food in his hometown has been with him all his life, and bad chicken and goose will appear in his pen from time to time.
Du Shouyi couldn't help thinking of the choking shrimp that also came from Jiangnan. Maybe there was a taste memory of Gong Xiaobei in those shrimps?
He tentatively asked: "Can you eat 'choking shrimp'?".
Only that night did Du Shouyi realize that the meaning of 'choking shrimp' to Gong Xiaobei was extraordinary.
When Gong Xiaobei was young, his family traveled to Hangzhou and ordered a dish of choked shrimp in the building outside the building.
When the tureen was opened, those shrimps jumped all over the table, and the family hurriedly caught shrimps became the happiest thing in her memory.
At that time, the family agreed to come to West Lake to eat prawns in the next year, but when the agreed time came, Gong Xiaobei was the only one left in the world.
Du Shouyi was silent for a long time, and said, "You must have thought of it when you ate deep-fried shrimp that day."
"You found it? So you brought the choked shrimp?"
No matter how thick-skinned Du Shouyi was, he was too embarrassed to nod and admit it.He thought for a while and said, "Should we go to visit the grave this Sunday?"
"Tell them that I ate choked shrimp again?" Gong Xiaobei smiled, and said with a happy face: "No, they will definitely know. To meet you means that my parents are protecting me.".
At night, Du Shouyi sat in his room and thought about it for a while.He remembered that Cho Xia seemed to sign in about a week before Xiaobei's birthday, because Master Ding passed away that night, so he remembered this time very clearly.
Now that I think about the meaning of this choking shrimp, it is really a bit unusual. It seems to remind Du Shouyi: cherish the people around you, some people you think will be with you for a long time, but maybe they just turn around and they disappear
