Run a B&B and receive Wu Song at the beginning

"Boss, can you put the tofu directly in the pot?"

In the kitchen, Xiuhe stood in front of the stove holding tofu cut into long strips, very busy.

The fish head bought in the morning was simmering on the stove. It was simmering and the delicious aroma was flowing out.

Li Yu is cutting pig ears and planning to make a spicy stir-fried pig ear.

After hearing Xiuhe's words, he said:

"Don't rush into the pot. Use boiling water to blanch the tofu first. This will eliminate the beany smell and make the tofu taste more tender and smooth."

"Oh, okay boss."

Xiuhe put the soup pot on another stove and began to boil water to blanch tofu.

Li Yu cut the pig ears and brought over the prepared thousand-layer pork skin, ready to cut into strips for cold dressing.

The so-called thousand-layer pig skin is actually to scrape the pig skin clean, remove the hair, put it in the stewed soup and cook until soft, then spread it in a container while it is still hot, about four or five layers, and then press it on like making tofu. heavy objects.

When it cools down, the pig skin has solidified into a whole piece. Cut it into slices with a knife, and you can see the layers of texture of the pig skin, which is more beautiful than pig skin jelly.

The pork skin made in this way is stringy, fragrant and very chewy.

If you add some shredded green onions, chopped coriander, and seasonings such as red oil, balsamic vinegar, light soy sauce, etc., it will be even worse. Lu Bu can drink a whole bottle of white wine with this dish.

Well, it’s a famous dish certified by Marquis Wen. Hanfu lovers love traditional culture so much, so naturally they have to try it.

Xiuhe blanched the tofu, carefully poured it into the fish head pot, then rolled up her sleeves and started washing vegetables.

Li Yu chopped some fat and lean meat fillings, stirred them with egg white, light soy sauce, cornstarch, pepper and onion and ginger water, and set them aside.

Taking advantage of this time, he took Xiuhe's washed green peppers, removed the stems, dug out the pepper seeds, and filled them with the marinated meat filling.

After a while, it is coated in batter and fried in a pan, and it becomes the famous crispy meat chili in Central Plains.

Today's dinner is mainly based on Yinzhou's local rural dishes, plus the dishes that Li Yu usually comes up with, and there is enough for a big table.

There were 20 or 30 Hanfu enthusiasts attending the offline party, and it was not enough if the food was missing.

While he was busy, Hao Zhenzhen’s voice sounded from the kitchen door:

"Li Yu, what are you cooking for? It's so delicious."

She originally wanted to thank her for inviting the extras, but before she even reached the kitchen door, she smelled the tempting fragrance inside.

Li Yu stuffed all the meat fillings into green peppers, then washed his hands and came outside, smiling and saying:

"I just made some local dishes, you just don't mind it."

"Why do you dislike it? My mouth watered as soon as I smelled this fragrance."

Hao Zhenzhen was wearing a red heroine costume today. She looked beautiful and dashing. She adjusted the red wristbands on her cuffs and said thanks:

"You really prepare surprises for people, and you actually invited extra actors over without saying a word. I didn't take it wrong. It's a good idea to work with you."

Li Yu:? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Wait a minute, what kind of extras are there?

He was a little confused. What should I do with the extras? This is not a live broadcast of visiting a store. The extras are completely useless, okay?

However, thinking that historical figures often haunt the B\u0026B, he did not deny it directly:

"Where did you see it? In the yard or outside?"

Hao Zhenzhen pointed in the direction of the gate:

"On the road outside, about two or three hundred meters from the gate, there is a man in ancient costume leading a thin yellow horse. Do you want to build for us a house with dead vines, old trees, small bridges and flowing water, The artistic conception of the ancient road with a thin horse in the west wind?"

A man in costume leading a horse?

Li Yu planned to go out and take a look.

He took off his apron, wiped his hands, and said to Xiuhe in the kitchen:

"Sister-in-law, watch the fire, and I'll go out for a while."

"OK, go ahead."

Li Yu strode out, and Hao Zhenzhen left the restaurant. Just as she was about to follow him, Wen Jing stopped her and hugged her:

"Ouch, this chivalric costume is a new one? Why haven't you seen it in a store? It's so festive, maybe you've fallen in love with the boss here!"

Hao Zhenzhen opened her hand:

"Stop touching, Wen Jing, I noticed that you are getting more and more horny. If you have the ability to find a man to hook up with, why are you bullying us women?"

Wen Jing sighed pretending to be melancholy:

"I have a lot of skills in picking up girls, but I'm just a girl... Let me try this outfit on, it looks really cool."

Hao Zhenzhen still thinks about riding horses:

"Let's wait until I'm done enjoying myself. The boss here seems to have rented a horse. I'll take a series of photos of the heroine galloping on the horse later, and then I'll try it on for you."

After saying that, she went to chat with other group friends.

Wen Jing was thinking about this outfit and chased Hao Zhenzhen like a bastard, fearing that someone else would get there first.

Li Yu came to the gate and saw a man leading a horse in the distance walking towards the B\u0026B.

The man was in his thirties and seemed to have just suffered a serious illness. His face was sallow and his clothes were dirty. To describe him as ragged could not be overstated.

But he is quite tall, nearly 1.9 meters tall, almost the same as Wu Song.

As for the horse he was holding, it was all yellow and looked very thin. A piece of hay was conspicuously stuck on the horse's head.

Sticking hay in your head?

Doesn't this mean it's for sale?

Who will sell it smoothly... Wait, it seems there is a hero who sells horses.

Li Yu thought of the "Xing Tang Zhuan" he was watching, which contained an important scene where the hero is in trouble and has no way out:

Qin Qiong sells horses!

Since the Yuan Dynasty, Qin Qiong's selling of horses has become a famous piece in Yuan opera. Together with Yang Zhi, the most unlucky man in the Water Margin, selling his sword, they are both examples of heroes in distress.

The person in front of me...can't be Qin Qiong, right?

Thinking of the descriptions in the book, Li Yu felt more and more similar as he looked at them. They were both eight feet tall, with pale gold faces and a slight beard under their chin.

As for why he was not as majestic as described in the book, it was because Qin's second brother had just fallen seriously ill. He pawned his mace and it was not enough to pay for it, and the shopkeeper was chasing him closely, so he came up with the idea of ​​selling the horse.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, heroes emerged in endlessly. Starting from the Song Dynasty, there were various heroic legends, and in the Yuan Dynasty, many hero-related songs appeared.

It can be said that the heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, like the heroes of the Three Kingdoms and the Water Margin, are classic IPs of ancient heroes.

But it is a pity that the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin were compiled into novels in the Ming Dynasty and have been famous for centuries, while the stories of the Sui and Tang Dynasties were not compiled until the Qing Dynasty.

The editor, Chu Renhuo, was obviously influenced by the novels about gifted men and beautiful women, and added a lot of reincarnation-related content into it, and also attempted to write a historical novel in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms category.

As a result, the whole book was written in four different ways with this idea of ​​"both wanting and wanting".

When storytellers narrated it to the common people, people did not like the battles between talented people and beauties in the court, and preferred to listen to heroic stories, so "Talking about the Tang Dynasty" was created, which was a book that extracted heroic stories and reorganized them.

Storytellers create all kinds of unrealistically exaggerated heroic characters in order to attract audiences.

For example, Qin Qiong's height in "Speaking of the Tang Dynasty" is one foot away in some versions, more than two meters and three meters, and some versions even exaggerate Qin Qiong's height to the point of "kneeling down and eight feet away".

According to the ancient small ruler, if you kneel down, you are still over 1.9 meters tall, but when you stand up, you can only reach 3 meters tall?

The storytellers became more and more exaggerated, so exaggerated that they themselves were embarrassed. Therefore, during the Republic of China, this IP was reorganized into "The Story of Xing Tang".

But this version also has a lot of flaws. For example, the original number one hero Li Yuanba was greatly weakened and could not even defeat Luo Cheng. Qin Qiong was also able to defeat Pei Yuanqing by using his trump card, etc., which made many old fans extremely unhappy.

Seeing the man leading the horse getting closer and closer, Li Yu picked up the umbrella at the gate and held it up to meet him.

"Are you the second brother Qin?"

Although I'm not sure yet, since I'm like Qin Qiong, I'll ask first.

To avoid the embarrassment when Wu Song came to the door for the first time.

The man leading the horse was slightly startled, looked at Li Yu, and said after a long time:

"My...my surname is Qiong, and I am the fifth eldest child in my family. I am not the second Qin you mentioned."

Um?

Mistaken?

Li Yu looked at the extremely thin yellow gelding, and then at the horseman who was recovering from a serious illness. This was the same as the description of Qin Qiong selling horses in the book. Why wasn't it Qin Qiong?

He was about to ask again when he suddenly remembered the plot in the book.

Qin Qiong's horse was never sold at the Ximen Horse Market because it was too thin. He happened to meet Jin San who knew how to look at horses. Jin San packed up the horse and took him to Erxian Village to find Shan Xiongxin to sell the horse.

Qin Qiong had been friends with Shan Xiong for a long time and didn't want him to see her in trouble, so she made up the pseudonym Qiong Wu.

So now the person in front of me calls himself Qiong Wu, is he afraid of being recognized?

Second brother, your idol baggage is too heavy, right?

Li Yu smiled and said:

"Stop pretending, Brother Qin. Have you lived in Tiantang County for a few months and just got seriously ill? You have pawned your own trump card and it's not enough to pay off the shopkeeper Wang Laohao's debt?"

Qin Qiong opened her mouth, cupped her fists and raised her hands and asked:

"May I ask who your surname is? Why do you recognize me, Qin Qiong?"

Li Yu is now wearing Hanfu and holding an oil-paper umbrella, so Qin Qiong regards him as an ancient person of the same period.

Li Yu pointed to the red Audi A4 parked at the door:

"Second brother, this is not the Sui Dynasty you lived in, but an era more than a thousand years later. Didn't you notice that car passed by you just now?"

Qin Qiong just walked with her head down, her heart full of reluctance for the yellow gelding, and she didn't even notice Hao Zhenzhen's car passing by the roadside.

Seeing his confused look, Li Yu held the umbrella over Qin Qiong's head:

"Let's go, take shelter from the rain first, eat something and rest. When I'm done, I'll tell you a heroic story about you..."
