Text Chapter 1,332: The Han Banner World (22) The Old Man¡¯s Fun by the Lake

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Dayan Lake is definitely a special existence in Dayan County. The manors built around Dayan Lake are all inhabited by people who once moved the wind and rain in this world, and changed the rain and clouds. Of course,  Now they are all old. Whether accidentally or deliberately, they don't want to mention the past time, but enjoy the peace of the present comfortably.  In the early days, there were only a few courtyards here, but now, more and more houses have been built a little further away from Dayan Lake, forming villages of various sizes. If not a few kilometers away from here,  Far away, there is a battalion of Han soldiers stationed. This place looks no different from other places in Han Dynasty.  These soldiers are of course used to protect the old people living by Dayan Lake.  Jiang Jiaquan, Zhou Yuan, Xun Xiu, Tian Dan, the former Qi King Tian Kang, the former Wei King Wei Ji, the former Zhao King Zhao Wuji, no matter which one is mentioned, people will be frightened, but now, in the eyes of the people in the surrounding villages, they  In other words, they are just old people. If I insist on adding, they are old people with some status. Otherwise, how could there be a battalion of soldiers stationed not far from here!  And every New Year and festival, Sun Xiao, the governor of Dayan County, would come here with a large number of gifts to greet these people.  "These people should be the heroes of the founding of our country. Now they are old, so they come here to take care of themselves.  This is the consensus of the surrounding villagers. When we live close together, there will naturally be some interactions. People in the village often bring their own chickens and ducks, and grow vegetables to sell here. Generally speaking, the prices are higher than those in the city.  And sell it higher.  It seems that the people living here have no idea about the price, let alone a counter-offer. They will give whatever the villagers say it is.  Such customers are naturally lovable.  Of course, no one is trying to rip off these old people.  If this spreads out, people will get beaten all over their heads.  It¡¯s very peaceful and quiet here.  Since cement was invented, Sun Xiao has used cement as raw material.  A lake embankment has been built for this section of Dayan Lake. The steps extend all the way into the rippling blue water. Every ten meters or so, there will be a small platform pushed forward, surrounded by railings.  It is a ready-made fishing platform. These old people by Dayan Lake all like fishing. This is also the best reason for them to get together.  As for them, there is nothing special and they will never come to see others rashly.  The weather today is excellent, the sky is cloudless, and the warm sunshine spreads the temperature all over the earth. It is a good time for an outing. For these old people, it is of course also a good time for fishing and chatting.  The doors of every house are open, and on the grass in front of the door, little dolls with pink makeup are laughing, jumping, making noises, rolling on the ground amidst the exclamations of each family member, and then quickly getting up,  Smiling happily while avoiding the hands stretched out to grab them by their family members, the laughter spread far, far away with the wind.  On top of those fishing platforms.  Today it is basically full, including a fishing rod, a pot of fragrant tea, and a thread-bound book that smells of ink.  It has almost become the standard for these old people.  Jiang Jiaquan only came here last year and fell in love with it immediately. For him, now there is really no need to mess around with silk and bamboo, and there is no need to worry about paperwork. He spends two hours every day sorting out his experiences over the years.  The scribe specially assigned to him by the imperial court would copy down what he dictated. After his approval, he would then rush to Jicheng. After being reviewed by the king, he would publish it and then distribute it to the world. He lived a good life.  Zaiyouzai, although it was only a short period of half a year, his white hair actually had traces of black again, and he was showing signs of rejuvenating.  It is rare for people to live seventy years old. He is already seventy-two this year. Looking at his current body, he may be able to fight for a while beyond a hundred years old. Jiang Jiaquan sometimes laments that he spent the first half of his life fighting against others, or maybe he will fight against others in the future.  Time is a battle with God to see how much longevity you can win from God¡¯s hands. Speaking of which, this is also one of the joys of life!  "Old Jiang, Old Jiang, how many fish have you caught?" Zhou Yuan's energetic voice came from another small platform not far away. Although he was quite old, he was a military general.  Zhou Yuan shouted, still maintaining his original character.  Taking off his glasses, Jiang Jiaquan glanced at the fish basket next to him and shook his head with a smile. There were only a few kitten fish in the fish basket. In the end, they had to be poured into the lake, which was not edible at all.  The glasses in his hand were given to him by Gao Yuan when he left Jicheng. They were just made by Mingbo Company. I heard that it took a lot of time to make such a pair. After wearing it, he looked like he used to  The vague problem was solved easily, as if he had become many years younger just a moment ago, and was very liked by the Jiang family.  Zhou Yuan¡¯s proud laughter came from over there. With a flick of his wrist, another fish weighing half a kilogram broke through the water.?, twisting desperately in the air, Zhou Yuan quickly put it into the fish basket.  "It seems like you haven't gained anything yet. Let's work together today. I'll bring out the fish, you come up with the ingredients, and we'll roast it and eat it together." Zhou Yuan carried the fish basket and went to the Jiang family.  Come.  "You are just greedy for my spices and are looking for excuses." Jiang Jiaquan laughed and said, "What's the matter? Have you used up the spices that were just delivered to you some time ago?" Zhou Yuan threw the fish basket aside,  Pulling up a chair and sitting next to Jiang Jiaquan, he didn't look embarrassed at all, "I have a lot of adults in my family, dozens of families, and that little spice is really not enough. You are alone in the family, and you can't use it up.  Who else can you hit with your Qiu Feng? Hey, why didn¡¯t Mr.  He must have gone into the pile of books again to find something to refute me," Jiang Jiaquan said with a smile while stroking his beard proudly.  "Lao Xun has been accepting death all his life." Zhou Yuan shook his head, "I really failed to live up to the beauty of this beautiful day today. Ignore him, Lao Jiang, let someone go back and get some food. I will bake it myself. Your hands  "It's really not good for you, and even good fish will be ruined by you." "It's great if you can eat it ready-made." Jiang Jiaquan waved, and a family member trotted over not far behind him.  "Go home and take half of the spices and give some to this old man, otherwise he will come and make noises to me every day." Zhou Yuan laughed: "Chiang Kai-shek is really grand. Thanks in advance, hahaha! These spices  They all come from overseas, which is really rare, but the people at home can eat it easily. Without these spices, the food will be tasteless. " "Several shipping companies will start operations this year, and these things will be needed by then.  There will be a lot more. Besides, the king has been ordering people to try to grow these spices. Maybe we will be able to grow these things here soon. By then, we can get whatever we want. The price of these spices is really too high now!  It¡¯s a bit more expensive, so most people can¡¯t afford it. ¡°That¡¯s great. If we can grow it here, I¡¯ll definitely grow more of it,¡± Zhou Yuan said with a smile.  While they were talking, the families on both sides had already brought in spices, stoves, etc. Some people quickly set up the fire, while others took the fish and cut them open. After a while, the cleaned fish were already placed on the table.  On the plate.  Rolling up his sleeves, Zhou Yuan began to grill the fish. After a while, bursts of aroma overflowed. However, as the aroma spread, it immediately attracted some people, who were naturally the old people who lived here.  Tian Dan was carrying a fish basket in his left hand and a pot of wine in his right hand. Wei Ji was holding a cleaned wild rabbit in his hand. Tian Kang was carrying a family member, who was holding a plate of fine porcelain.  They all came over one after another, shouting loudly that they wanted to taste Zhou Yuan¡¯s craftsmanship together.  "You guys, have you eaten less from me? Are you here to join in the fun today?" Zhou Yuan laughed.  "Mr. Jiang is here, but we haven't gathered together to help Mr. Jiang. Today is sunny and windy, which is a good time. It's better to choose a day, so today is the day." Tian Dan smiled and put the wine bottle in his hand.  Putting it down on the ground with a bang, "This is Wu's craft beer. It only produces about a hundred kilograms a year. Have you drank all of it already? Hahaha, I'm going to be a favor and let you try it again today."  Both middle fingers were stretched out in front of Tian Dan.  "What does a pot of fine wine mean? I still have the Wu family's fine wine produced five years ago. How does it compare to yours?" A cold voice came, and everyone turned around. It was the former King of Zhao, Zhao Wuji.  Zhao Wuji may be the most unwilling one among them. After the Handan Incident, King Zhao was so angry that he suffered a stroke. Although he was treated with all his strength, he is still paralyzed and is currently sitting in a wheelchair.  On top of it, a family member pushed it over. On the blanket covering his legs in front of him, there was a wine bottle inlaid with gold and silver threads. Just looking at this wine bottle, everyone here could give up the bottle.  The value of wine.  ??Everyone is beaming with joy.  "I'm just telling you where Lao Zhao still has good things hidden." Tian Kang said happily, grabbing the wheelchair and waving the family member away. Zhou Yuan had already reached out and took the wine in his hand, looking at Tian  Dan said: "With this bottle of wine, none of your bottles will be on the table." Tian Dan stretched out his hand to take away his bottle of wine. As soon as he stretched out his hand, Wei Ji on the side had already snatched it away.  "There is no reason to take back what you have given away. Although it is a little worse, it is better than nothing. No one is allowed to leave until two bottles of wine are drunk today." "That's right!" The rest of the people laughed together.  Jiang Jiaquan looked at everyone with a smile. These people were once the most powerful people on this continent.The characters have been fighting each other since they were young. I'm afraid no one thought that when they got old, they would actually gather in this place and enjoy themselves like a family. And the one who did all this was naturally that magical man.  He looked across the lake and looked at the rippling blue water. Among the circles of glass, the face of the man seemed to appear in the middle.  He raised his head and looked at the wide concrete pavement that had just been completed in the distance. Several small black spots were moving towards it.  With the sound of horse hooves, Jiang Jiaquan grunted and stood up. The familiar figure made him feel surprised and happy, Gao Yuan was here.  (To be continued.)?¡­
