Sun Qian was dumbfounded. From Sun Qian's point of view, Chen Xi's attitude towards life was the perfect interpretation of a rich and noble son.
Not tired of eating fine food, not tired of fine food, doing things according to one's will, but restraining one's desires, holding power, but not indulging in power. This kind of mentality, this kind of life attitude, not to mention other things, this kind of lifestyle is very It¡¯s hard for anyone to achieve it.
"Zichuan, don't talk about your attitude towards life, just your lifestyle, you can't do it without a very strong family background." Sun Qian sighed, "Not to mention anything else, just your family's cook , most people can¡¯t afford it.¡±
Chen Xi laughed. In the late Han Dynasty, the shortage of materials could not be changed no matter what.
"A better life is always a personal pursuit, and this is my hobby." Chen Xi said with a smile, "Hey, when the food comes, don't worry about it, just sit on the floor and eat it here. Come on."
"What's so important about this?" Sun Qian is also a person who doesn't stick to trivial matters. Although he was born under Zheng Xuan's family, he learned benevolence rather than etiquette.
Chen Xi is not particular about it, and Xiliang warriors like Hua Xiong are not particular about it. After Chen Yun served a few dishes made from local materials, the three guys took turns grabbing the food with chopsticks. As for Chen Lan, I just cooked the food, but didn't serve it myself.
"Oh, I finally understand why the sage Confucius insisted on 'never getting tired of fine food and never getting tired of fine food'. In addition to the aristocratic etiquette, he probably also wanted to have fun eating." Although Sun Qian only studied benevolence and not etiquette, he It is rare to ridicule Kong Sage like this.
"I won't eat the meat if it's not cut right, hahaha." Chen Xi sandwiched a piece of fish fillet that was beautifully cut but had irregular textures, smiled and said something joking, and then stuffed it into his mouth unceremoniously.
Chen Ying, who heard this sentence from a distance, was startled at first, and then quickly looked in the direction of Chen Xi, just in time to see Chen Xi stuffing the fish meat into his mouth, and he immediately didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"I was shocked when the head of the house suddenly said that. I thought he really stopped eating." Chen Ying said to Chen Yun beside her, dumbfounded.
"Master, you are just teasing Saint Kong." Chen Yun said with a smile. After all, she was arrested by Fan Jian for a while and studied with Cai Yan under Fan Jian for quite some time.
In addition, Chen Yun originally had a good talent, and Liu Yun originally trained her in the fields of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so being caught by Fan Jian to study with Cai Yan also improved her knowledge a lot.
"Are you making fun of Saint Kong?" Chen Ying didn't understand at all.
"Well, Saint Kong once said, 'Don't eat if you don't eat it right', which means that the texture of the meat must be in the right direction, otherwise it won't be eaten." Chen Yun said with a smile, "I want you to read more books, and the result will be You play all day long.¡±
"How do you calculate it as positive?" Chen Ying asked curiously. She really didn't have any talent for learning, but she was very talented for playing things.
"I don't know. When Mr. Cai taught this section, he specially cut a piece of it, but no one learned it." Chen Yun remembered that after Cai Yan finished the lecture, they did not leave. Cai Yan left them behind to take care of them. Rice, a plate of meat cut for each person is what is called Zheng.
" But that was what Cai Yan said after eating. Chen Yun didn't have a photographic memory and didn't pay too much attention to the food. How could he know what righteousness was.
It was also that time that Chen Yun realized that Cai Yan could be quite scary if he was particular about it. However, Cai Yan¡¯s rice was pretty good. Very simple condiments made it taste pretty good, but the taste was a bit bland, but overall it was quite delicious.
"Fortunately, the head of the family is usually not very particular. He must have suddenly remembered this matter." Chen Yun said with a smile. She knew Chen Xi quite deeply.
Hua Xiong silently waved his chopsticks. The sage Kong had nothing to do with the Kansai people. He could not enter the Qin Dynasty if he traveled west. However, it was of no use. The Lu State was harmonized at the beginning of the Warring States Period, and the sage Yu Ze did not Save your country.
Poor Hua Xiong had no idea what Sun Qian and Chen Xi were talking about. He could only fight with his head. Unfortunately, after eating several plates of fish, Hua Xiong was still far from full.
"Zijian looks like he's not full." Chen Xi said with a smile, placing his chopsticks horizontally and facing Sun Qian with a smile.
"It's beyond my expectation to have such a meal on the march." Hua Xiong shaved his teeth with a fish bone and said, "The cook in Chen Hou's family is really good."
"You can ask your cook to come to my house to learn." Chen Xi said with a smile, "And I won't eat dry food if I encounter better ingredients on the road. I didn't bring them two here for fun, Chen Ying is the best cook in my family."
"Gongyou, I won't stay here long, even though I'm trying to confuse the enemy., but the general marching speed is still guaranteed. I just came to check the progress of the bridge construction, and then see if you need anything. "Chen Xi sat on the ground and bowed his hands to Sun Qian and said.
"That's it. It's a pity that after this meal, there is no next meal." Sun Qian shook his head and said, "Please pay more attention to the rating matter. I will submit one as soon as I have time." The document explains the situation.¡±
"You can rest assured, I will report the situation here to Yecheng when I get to the next station." Chen Xi said solemnly.
"Then I'll feel at ease." Sun Qian said with a smile, "Then I won't keep you here anymore. I'll keep watching the craftsmen at work. If you leave for a long time, I'll be a little worried. It seems like I'm a good person. Something's wrong."
"This is a good thing, be responsible." Chen Xi said with a smile, then with a straight face, he cupped his hands and said, "Take care, Gongyou, if you get sick due to climate problems, return to Yecheng quickly. Don't drink the river water directly, boil it before drinking. "
"I still value my life very much. This bridge on the Yellow River is not my ultimate goal. There will definitely be another one on the Yangtze River. After my death, I, Sun Qian, will be with these two bridges and will be with them. All avenues of the Central Plains are the same." Sun Qian said solemnly while holding his hands.
"The Master said, 'If you hear the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening.' I admire the benevolence and righteousness of the saints. Before, I felt that I could never find a way of benevolence and righteousness worth practicing in my life. Now, I have learned the way of benevolence and righteousness worth practicing in my life." That's OK." Sun Qian said very solemnly.
"Congratulations, Gongyou." Chen Xi looked into Sun Qian's eyes. Infrastructure construction also requires someone to devote his life to it.
"But this is not enough. You still need to learn a lot. Fortunately, there is still a long time. Maybe after thousands of years, you will really be with all the avenues of the Central Plains." Chen Xi said with emotion.
