"Brother, are you ripe?"

"It's going to be fast, it's in a hurry. "

Yue Fei glanced at the pot, the boiled beef was fat and thin, and there was only a slight resistance when the chopsticks were inserted, and it was really almost cooked.

There was already a whole cooked chicken on the table in the hall, heated by a charcoal basin underneath, and it was steaming all the time.

Add a large plate of lamb that has been grilled and then diced.

There is also sauerkraut.

Cut a plate of cucumbers.

Boiled eggplant beans and other vegetarian dishes.

It's also a very hearty meal.

The house was full of aroma, Yue Fang, who was in his early tens, was originally as thin as a monkey, but now he also had meat on his face, and the meat was much cuter than before.

Yue turned over, and his knowledge was not bad, not as good as Yue Fei, but he was also a top existence among ordinary teenagers.

Originally, Yue Chuan was also going to take the martial arts exam next year.

But Yue Fei was a little hesitant.

The brothers are all in the army, and the chance of an accident is directly doubled.

And...... I can't have no one around my mother, right?

Next year, the family will renovate the mansion, Yue Fei also wants to let himself fight for Liangshan outside, the old lady can enjoy happiness at home, she has been suffering for half her life.

The mother-in-law is actually less than forty, but in this world, she can already call herself an old woman.

After Jingkang, his mother-in-law fell into the enemy territory, Yue Fei had already become a town commander, and his mother-in-law asked someone to bring a letter, telling him to serve the country with peace of mind, and not to think about the old woman's affairs.

Yue Fei read the letter and cried, and successively sent messengers eighteen times, and after many difficulties and dangers, he finally took his mother to his side.

Now the only thing Yue Fei thinks about is his old mother.

Yue Yao was also in the kitchen, busy with his eldest son.

At this time, as if he saw Yue Fei's thoughts, Yue Yao said: "Wulang, when you go to the army in the future, don't worry about things at home." "One Hundred and Sixty Seven" Your sixth brother's future will not be delayed as a mother, he has the ability and ambition, and he should not be forced to accompany his mother at home under the wing of his brother, which is not fair to him. "

Yue Fei was quite shocked.

But when I think about my mother's words, it also makes sense.

My mother has always been reasonable.

Only such a mother can cultivate a hero like Yue Fei.

"Amazing mother, I'll go to the pavilion next year and apply for the return of the land. "

Yue Yao looked at the room and sighed.

The grain hoards were full of wheat, and there was a season of sorghum, which had been sold.

The wheat in front of me is more than thirty stones, thousands of catties, and it is piled up like a hill.

Those who are poor and hungry are afraid of it, and they pile up their food at home in this way.

That's peace of mind!

Not only Yue Yao's family, but many people in the village do the same.

Food, not around, not under the nose, can you rest assured?

Money is also a sense of security, but for these people, the sense of security brought by money is far less than food, far worse!

The land planted by the Yue family is because Yue Fei is working in the martial arts hall, and Yue Fei is studying in school.

Cattle and farming implements, seeds are given free of charge.

Yue Fei also paid back the money for the house, and he did not offset it with food.

As a result, after a bumper harvest, it became these dozens of stones of wheat in front of me.

"Grain or one or two acres are left, what do you think, Gorou?"

"Forget it, lest your brother be worried, my mother will leave half an acre of vegetable land, and dig a deeper vegetable cellar, and there will be fresh vegetables to eat in winter. "

There's no such thing as an out-of-season greenhouse.

Dishes can only be eaten in season.

If you want to eat vegetables in winter, you can only eat pickled vegetables if you want to supplement vitamins and dietary fiber.

Many times, pickles are more expensive than meat.

Because it's rare and expensive.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was recorded that half a jar of pickled cabbage could be exchanged for several sheep.

The herders still have to rush to beg for a change.

Because ordinary people won't have too many at home.

It's not that the dish is expensive, the dish in season will not be too expensive.

In fact, except for people in the city, there is no one in the countryside to buy vegetables to eat, which family can not grow vegetables in front of the door?

Yue Fei felt his mother's unwillingness in his heart.

But there was nothing he could do at this time, he looked at the cauldron on the stove and whispered, "Mother, the beef is cooked thoroughly." "

A smile appeared on Yao's face: "Well, on Chinese New Year's Eve, don't talk about killing the scenery, this beef is also your share of our family when you become a military attaché, although it is a sick cow and a dead cow, it is not something that ordinary people can eat!"

Under the rule of the Great Song Dynasty, although it was forbidden to slaughter cultivated cattle, there were still many people who specialized in raising beef cattle.

Big households, wealthy gentry, and powerful people are all proud to be able to eat beef at any time.

The same is true for some hotels with doors, where beef is on a hidden menu.

Like a good man in Liangshan, on the green forest road, when he arrived at the hotel, the big thorn said: Cut two catties of high-quality beef.

It's quite difficult for the store to give or not to give.

This is also a small detail that reflects the hero's heroism and green forest style.

Ordinary people want to order beef in a powerful restaurant at will......

It's okay to be forked out.

It's normal to knock out your overnight meal.

This Chinese New Year's Eve dinner at Yue Fei's house, with this cauldron of beef, is also really colorful.

Pork is the same.

Ordinary people in these years either eat chicken or fish.

The rich are mainly beef and mutton, with some seafood and fish and the like, and of course, there are also special fruits from all over the world.

In the menu of Song Gaozong's banquet at Zhang Jun's house, pork was almost invisible.

Su Dongpo began to promote pork decades ago, but it will take time for pork to become the mainstream meat.

Only the extremely poor people have meat to eat, which is the mainstream of eating pork.

Many of the pigs raised in Liangshan were digested by the army and made into canned meat.

There are also some for sale.

Of course, pigs will eat it themselves, but the base is relatively small.

More than 100 years later, eating pork has become the mainstream, one is that I know that castration and re-raising, and the smell of pigs is much smaller.

The slow-growing pork is also fragrant, much more fragrant than lamb and beef.

The second is population breeding, and there is not much land for sheep.

The sheep fell from the dominance of the Tang and Song dynasties and never returned.

"Let's eat!"

Yue Chuan cheered, ran outside with a lighter and set off a firecracker.

It is already a custom to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new.

This is true before and after the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner of the people.

In the hundreds of villages in this pavilion, the sound of firecrackers has long been unstoppable.

There is a stove in the house, and although it is not big, the temperature is not low.

A family of three is wearing jackets.

The table is full of meat and vegetables, mainly meaty and fishy, and there are very few vegetarian dishes.

One is less vegetarian.

Second, in this era, there is nothing to be afraid of the three highs and the like, how can ordinary people have the opportunity to eat meat every day, and they have never heard of high-oil and high-salt snacks.

The New Year's holidays are of course a good opportunity to eat meat on a large scale.

But no one is hypocritical, afraid of fat or anything like that.

"That is, under the rule of the big boss......"

Looking at the meat dishes on the table, Yao's eyes were red. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Isn't it......" Yue flipped the cannon in, and directly tore a chicken leg, while eating with a mouth full of oil, he said with a smile: "Last year, our family didn't have a meat dish during the New Year, so we wrapped some flat food with some meat for the New Year." "

Yue Fei scolded with a smile: "If you remember this matter clearly, it will make my mother sad when you say it!"

Yue Yao shook his head and said: "I am sad for my mother, not because of this, but because I think of your father, he has never enjoyed such a blessing for a day, it is really a blessing." Also, your eldest sister is too, she has never enjoyed happiness in our family, and the family she married is also poor, this time we came out to flee from the disaster, the Gao family refused to leave, and I don't know what happened now......"

"Alas......"

Yue Fei is becoming more and more mature, unlike Yue Fan, who only cares about munching and eating at this time, he pondered for a while, and then said: "Mother, don't worry, I will have a period of vacation before I come to the camp after the year, I will take a few more days off, go back to Tangyin to see, burn paper on my father's grave, and then ask how the eldest sister is now." "

Yue Yao was moved: "Wulang, you are really sensible, my mother is very pleased, but don't delay your business, in another year or two, your sixth brother will almost be able to accompany your mother back to Tangyin." "

Yue Fei said with a smile: "Don't worry, mother, we really have a holiday, it is enough to invite another three or five days at most, as long as we explain things, we will not be unkind." "

"This is good, this is good......"

The two of them were talking, and through the small glass window, Yue Fei suddenly saw a pavilion guard with a lantern on the village road towards his home.

There was also a couple, a boy, both covered in snow.

The snow doesn't stop falling before and after dark.

It's white everywhere.

On the contrary, the village after dark was reflected in the snow, and the visibility was much brighter.

On the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone has their own lives, and this day is not exciting.

Early tomorrow morning, the women of each family will dress up their husbands and children neatly, put on new clothes and robes, and start to walk around each other to greet each other according to the seniority and distance of relatives. []

This kind of large-scale New Year's greeting is a very important social activity in this era, there are always some people in a clan who may not be at home for most of the year, or honest people, who do not like to go out at home all day long, only at this time can meet the elders and relatives, and meet the younger generations, after the first month, there are many people who go to their own future.

At this time, the pavilion guards led people to Yue Fei's house......

Yue Fei had an idea in his mind, and his body was shocked.

But he didn't dare to say it, for fear that he guessed wrong and would make his mother sad.

At that moment, Yue Fei only said: "Mother, there are pavilion guards outside to patrol the night, let me go out and have a look." "

"Bring a few meat steamed buns to someone. "

"Then forget it, they will not take it, and the people who are on duty tonight in the pavilion will be rewarded tenfold, and they will also prepare food for them. "

"That's fine, you can go and see it and come back. "

Liangshan's rule is not outstanding, but quite outstanding.

All kinds of laws and regulations, not only the essence of the Qin and Han dynasties, but also the advantages of later generations, combined with the current reality, can be said to throw off the Great Song Dynasty 100 streets.

For example, if you send food, it is certain that you are not allowed to accept it, even if it is only worth a few cents, the consequences of receiving it are the same as those of several thousand cents.

Prevent microaggressions.

Some people said that they were afraid that the people would be disappointed, and Wang Lun said at the time that as long as they received something, the days would go by, and the anthill would collapse for thousands of miles, and the people would be really disappointed at that time.

In addition, the norm at the time of official business.

Day-to-day management.

Even private life has rules.

For example, adultery with the wives and daughters of the common people is punished as rape.

Some people are not convinced, for example, if a woman really likes a certain official, how can it be so one-size-fits-all?

Wang Lun refuted the Han family's "two-year law", and the two-year law formulated by Empress Lu also stipulated so.

The wives and daughters of ordinary people, if it weren't for the benefits brought by the power in the hands of the officials, could it be that the officials were all good-looking?

Don't be funny.

Even if there are occasional special circumstances, they cannot cover up the general situation.

Similar to all this, the divisions under Liang Shan's command can be said to be extremely disciplined.

Therefore, when people see small officials such as pavilion guards who deal directly with the village, their first reaction is to see if there is anything to help.

If this is a change of officials of the Great Song Dynasty......

Of course, you can hide first, and if you can't dodge, you can push, and it is impossible for someone to take the initiative to come to the side of the little officials of the Great Song Dynasty to find them uncomfortable.

is a charge secretary like Song Jiang, at the level of section chief, and the black-hearted money he makes is enough for him to call for wind and rain on the rivers and lakes.

One can imagine how sparse the rule of the Great Song Dynasty was.

Yue Fei rushed out of the door, and within a few steps, snow fell on his head and face.

The pavilion pawn also saw him from a distance, and when he got closer, the pavilion pawn carrying the lantern smiled and said, "Yue Jiawulang, do you have an eldest sister who is married to a family surnamed Gao and is also from Tangyin?"

"Yes, that's right......"

Yue Fei had already greeted him.

The couple of men and women who walked over were not their sister and brother-in-law?

Brother-in-law Gao Huaiyuan is a member of Tangyin, tall and handsome, Yue Fei's family is also a good family in Tangyin, the two families have a good relationship, and the relationship between the sister and brother-in-law is also very good.

It's just that the Gao family and Yue Fei's family are getting poorer and poorer, Gao Huaiyuan has repeatedly failed, and the family has spent a lot of money, and in the past few years, there have been floods and droughts and floods, which have made it even worse.

When the Yue family joined the fleeing homeless team, the Gao family also hesitated, but Gao Yuan was worried about this year's township 1.1 test, so he gritted his teeth and stayed.

This is the absence of any news.

At first glance, seeing the eldest sister and brother-in-law, Yue Fei was really happy.

But he has a deep kung fu for cultivating qi, and he is no longer a half-big green stupid boy.

Taking a few steps back, Yue Fei shook his head and said solemnly: "I've seen the eldest sister, brother-in-law." "

The eldest sister had already burst into tears, and at this time she stepped forward and hugged Yue Fei and cried, "Wulang, I finally found you." "

"Eldest sister, but what happened?"

"Alas," Sister Yue said, "Tang Yin implemented the law of bracketing fields, and took away the only few acres of land left in the family, and there was still some grain storage, which was also levied when taxes were collected, if you still stay at home, you will either starve to death, or your brother-in-law will have to go to work as a coolie.

" Later, I heard that Liang Shan was very rich under his rule, and we thought that my little brother and mother had come over, so it was better to come and join you......

"

"That's how it should be. "

Yue Fei nodded very calmly, looked at his brother-in-law, and asked him clearly first: "Brother-in-law, will you participate in the exam next year?"

"Not participating. Gao Huaiyuan said angrily: "This is unfair, the people of fishing meat, the court that fishes and fishes hard, is the Jinshi in the examination and they are in the same stream?"

Yue Fei nodded lightly, sure enough, although his brother-in-law is pedantic and a nerd, he has fairness and justice in his heart.

Some nerds, regardless of the injustice in the world, only have the word loyalty in their minds, it seems that it is not right for the people to live and rebel, they want to stretch their necks, cut them down by the court, or starve their whole family to death, which is in line with the way of loyalty.

It's like reading a book into a dog's belly.

Gao Huaiyuan said with some uneasiness: "Fifth brother, I'm afraid I'm going to affect you." "。
