Chen Xi can be regarded as a believer in "knowing the etiquette when the granaries are solid, and knowing the honor and disgrace when there is enough food and clothing", and is also the executor of this theory.

In fact, most of the Chen family from Tian Qi believed in this sentence. After all, this was Guan Zhong's theory. Although the Tian family overthrew the Jiang family, Tian's respect for Guan Zhong was quite high.

Well, in fact, it should be that he has a lot of respect for Duke Huan of Qi, Jiang Xiaobai. After all, he was the one who took in Chen Wan and allowed the Chen family to flourish again. Duke Huan of Qi went too far, so he changed his faith in Guan Zhong.

Chen Xi also believes in this set of ideas, and he dare not say that he regards it as a standard, and he has indeed been practicing this set of theories all the time. This is also the reason why the elders of the Chen family feel that Chen Xi is also orthodox.

Although Chen Xi often felt that those old men simply thought that Chen Xi was strong enough, so they gave Chen Xi an orthodoxy, but then again, there was indeed an element of nostalgia in it.

"This level is still far from the prosperous age." Chen Xi's eyes were calm, and he just looked at Liu Bei, "Maybe in the eyes of the common people, this is already a prosperous age, but in my eyes, I can do better. Now even Cao Sikong's poem is not as good as that."

Cao Cao's poem about wine is the prosperous age in Cao Cao's eyes. If that poem is used as a standard, the current Central Plains has barely reached the standard in the poem, at most it is slightly lacking, but this is not enough in Chen Xi's opinion.

"Zi Chuan, what was it like when you were the poorest when you were a child?" Liu Bei asked with a smile when he walked to a green tile house, stretched out his hand to open the door, and brought Chen Xi in.

"When was it the poorest?" Chen Xi shook his head after thinking about it, "When I was the poorest, I probably lived much better than these common people."

The simplest way to say it is not to live in advance. In this life, Chen Xi also grew up eating white rice. Even if his family is in decline, there may be a scholar who is not poor at this time anyway. Even when Chen Xi came over, the maid singer at home also They all left because of Chen Xi's illness, not because the family had no money or food.

A family that can use the education of the aristocratic family to raise children can hardly be called poor.

"That's right, after all, you are from the Chen family of Yingchuan." Liu Bei nodded and said, "Then take me as an example. When I was young, I lived with the clan. Of course, the down-and-out royal family is no match for your thousand-year-old royal family. Nobility."

"Nonsense, you are still a thousand-year-old nobleman, and my ancestors also had times when they were down." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, actually looking up the history, before the Three Kingdoms, no matter how miserable the old Chen family was, they could still stand upright on the stage , the near branch is not at all down to the level of Liu Bei's early years.

But Liu Bei didn't mean to expose it, instead he said with a smile, "I lost my father when I was young, and I had a hard time when I was young. At that time, I thought I was already miserable. Later, I found out that there were more people who were miserable. I was eating rice. When it was time, they were eating wild vegetables and yellow rice with broken bits."

It was laughter when he opened his mouth, but at the end, there was a sense of misery. Chen Xi was silent when he heard the words. He really had never eaten yellow rice with crumbs, but he had eaten wild vegetables, stir-fried potherb mustard and so on. Very delicious.

"I was ignorant when I was young, so I asked them why they didn't wash away the debris." Liu Bei said as he walked in, "Do you know how those people answered?"

"After washing the yellow rice, the starch will be lost. The cleaner the washing, the more it will be lost." Chen Xi looked at the layout of the house and replied casually, "If you cook it directly, there will be scum, but be careful when eating It’s not a question, it should probably be the answer.”

Liu Bei was stuck, and suddenly he didn't know what to say. Looking at Chen Xi's unimpressed expression, Liu Bei sighed. Chen Xi really understood, not joking.

"Yes, that's the answer." Liu Bei said sadly, "However, those days are already considered good days. At least there are wild vegetables, yellow rice, half-fed, and I can survive until the Yellow Turban Rebellion. It’s really time to live.”

"That's why Duke Xuande didn't approve of killing the Yellow Turbans." Chen Xi suddenly turned to look at Liu Bei and said, "Mr. Xuande wanted to save those people, didn't he?"

"It can't be saved at all. I don't have that kind of ability, and I don't have that kind of power. After the Yellow Turban War ended, I felt that there was a real problem with this world, and I really thought about how to change this world." Liu Bei recalled the expression on his face at the time. Some grief.

Chen Xi is almost clear about the following things. Before meeting him, Liu Bei still hit a wall all the way. Although many people think Liu Bei is a hero, it is useless. A hero does not mean that Liu Bei can succeed. He has no ability, connections, or territory.

"Perhaps I'm lucky." Liu Bei suddenly smiled and patted Chen Xi's shoulder.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm also thankful to have met you." Chen Xi said sincerely, "So let's keep going, we haven't even finished half of the road, and we have to drag it to the finish line."

"Well, yes, continue to work!" Liu Bei said with high spirits, and then took off his shoes and prepared to go to the couch. Now the kang is quite popular, and many people like to repair such a thing.

But after Liu Bei got on the couch with high fighting spirit, he suddenly remembered, shouldn't he relieve Chen Xi's boredom by himself? Why did Chen Xi have no ups and downs at all, and his fighting spirit became high? What kind of operation is this?

"No, Zichuan, didn't you touch those things when you saw them?" After Liu Bei got on the kang, he suddenly turned around and asked Chen Xi.

"What?" Chen Xi was confused, what are you looking at? Is the city wall well built? I exaggerated.

"People's food! There is also the smell of cooking smoke." Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi in puzzlement and said.

"Yellow rice, what's the matter, there are still steamed buns on the construction site, and they have been upgraded to baked bread recently?" Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said.

That's right, Chen Xi really made bread. In fact, he can order it after the dough is fermented. It's just that Chen Xi has never ordered it. The requirements for baking are much higher than that of steamed buns. That At the time, I couldn't afford this, even if it was the cost of a penny, Chen Xi had always saved as much as he could, but now it doesn't matter.

By the way, what Chen Xi makes is real whole-wheat bread, and even the bran is not spared. Add some salt and sugar to deal with it, and let the future generations eat it. Not many people eat it, but there are still many people who like it , Bread with pickles, tastes pretty good too.

"..." Liu Bei found that Chen Xi's way of thinking was completely different from his way of thinking, but thinking about it, there were still white steamed buns on the construction site.

"As for the smell of cooking smoke, it's not as fragrant as my home's." Chen Xi looked out with a sly look in his eyes, stretched out his index finger to think, and finally came to a conclusion.

Liu Bei expressed that he wanted to rush down at this moment, and picked up Chen Xi and threw it out. It was more delicious than Chen Xi's kitchen. Let's go, all of them are gone. The cuisines are all created by this guy. Chen Xi's love for appetite In the eyes of many people, it is unreasonable at all, but it must be admitted that the things handed down from Chen Xi's family are really delicious.

"By the way, Mr. Xuande, you probably have an outer room here." Chen Xi looked around curiously, it was very clean, with obvious traces of cleaning, and old man Li seemed to be quite familiar with Liu Bei, even if he couldn't meet him. Not too many times, and it does look like a villager. What about the hostess?

"What are you thinking?" Liu Bei snorted and said angrily, "I can still be like you."

"Don't, we are not the ones who raised the outer room. Cai Chen is the son of the Cai family, and I was raised." Chen Xi said that you are slandering me.

"Forget it, forget it, don't mention those bad things." Liu Bei changed the topic, and Chen Xi said that there must be a story in it, and there must be a heroine in the story.

Therefore, Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei with a sly smile, and also got on the couch. There was a stove on the couch itself, and there was warm wine on it. He took out the wooden gift box from the side, and Liu Bei placed side dishes and snacks in two or three strokes. It's quite weird, but it seems that Liu Bei in the city prefers it.

"Hey hey." Chen Xi smiled obscenely, while Liu Bei drank silently.

"Tell me, Lord Xuande, what's going on." Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei with a smile.

"Not as many stories as you think." Liu Bei said angrily.

"I haven't said it's a story yet!" Chen Xi said with a smile, "Where is the hostess, maybe she is cooking in the kitchen, that's not right."

"You're fine, she's not here." Liu Bei said angrily, "Why do you have so many imaginary things, you are not so flexible when you are working, why are you so excited when you gossip, what do you want to see? What?"

"Wow, from now on, the eldest brother will not talk about the second brother. I was crazily despised by you about the eldest lady. Now I am fine, and help me carry it together in the future." Chen Xi said excitedly, it can be regarded as having a teammate, although this teammate is not very reliable Spectrum, but at least it can share the pressure.

"This place was arranged by your mother-in-law." Liu Bei said quietly, but this light sentence was like a heavy punch, sinking Chen Xi, and he was speechless for a long time.

After a long time, Chen Xi picked up the wine glass and said quietly, "Let's discuss the important affairs of the country and the food and clothing of the common people. Let's forget about the rest."

"Didn't you dance very happily just now?" Liu Bei said with a smile, "This pickle is pretty good, try it, the price is so cheap, and the pickle with meat taste is my first choice in forty years. It’s the first time I’ve seen it, and it’s only twenty-two cents for such a big one, and I’ll give you a clay pot, so I’m guessing that this thing was produced by you.”

"Of course it's me. This kind of cheap thing, others will lose money if they sell it." Chen Xi glanced at it. More than maids.
