Chapter 10 Recalling the past, the glorious years!

Noon has passed.

Qin Luoheng served a few plates of side dishes from the kitchen, then made some dipping sauce, scooped a bowl of millet porridge with a wooden spoon, arranged it on the simple wooden table, and prepared to eat his own lunch.

The staple foods in the Qin Dynasty were somewhat different from those in later generations.

The staple food at this time was millet.

The taste of millet is much worse than that of rice flour in later generations, but the yield is very high. Therefore, it is the staple food in today's society. In the Qin Dynasty and Qianshou fields, rented fields, stored in granaries, rations for soldiers and prisoners, and wages for officials are all millet.

The country.

The society is the land, while the Ji is the millet.

In addition to millet, there were also millet, beans, hemp and wheat in the Qin Dynasty.

Of course, there were other grains in the Qin Dynasty, such as sorghum, lion, charm, glutinous, etc., but not many people ate them, so they were not included in the five grains.

There were also five dishes in the Qin Dynasty.

They are sunflower, agaricus, scallions, leeks, and shallots.

But the taste is naturally indescribable.

Since Qin Luoheng settled down in Mount Li, he has never used these five dishes as main dishes. He has gone out to find wild vegetables. Over the years, he has discovered many "wild vegetables", such as gourds, cabbage, etc., which were found inadvertently in the mountains and forests.

This also greatly enriched his recipe.

But these are the second.

The reason why he can find balance in a Daqin recipe that is not suitable for him is that a sachet is of great significance. This sachet was brought by the original owner, but it contains pepper seeds.

When he saw these seeds, he was stunned.

Although he didn't remember these things very clearly, he still remembered that crops such as peppers were only introduced to our country in the Ming Dynasty, but what happened to the seeds on him?

However, at that time, the war was in chaos and he was busy surviving and had no time to find the reason.

Following the Master, he settled down in Mount Li, he began to try to plant. After wasting most of the seeds, he finally planted a few of them alive. By summer, these plants did bear millet peppers.

He ran to ask the Master.

The Master's answer surprised him even more.

This is Qin Jiao!

When the Master saw his shocked expression, he gave him a special explanation.

"Shan Hai Jing·Beishan Jing·Jingshan" says: It is another three hundred miles south, called Jingshan. Looking at the salt vendor's marsh in the south, and looking at the Shaoze in the north. There are many grasses on it, shuyu, and the grasses are mostly Qin pepper.

Qin Jiao was the medicine at this time.

It mainly originates from the southern part of Qin and Chu.

Even Chu Ci wrote that the Chu people would add this spicy food specifically during sacrifices.

"The bitterness and sourness are made, and the spicy and sweetness are gone."

Spicy means spicy.

Qin Luoheng didn't understand at the time, but he was still shocked.

However, with chili peppers, his recipes expanded a lot. In the past ten years, he made all the wild vegetables he found nearby.

The food is constantly improving.

Although his three meals a day are far less than later generations, they are much more than that of the current generations. This is also the main reason why he can live in seclusion in the deep mountains.

Rust!

Suddenly a sound came from outside.

Qin Luoheng immediately became alert.

But soon his expression relaxed.

He is no longer a dead man.

Qin Luoheng looked up and looked not far away. If he was right, the person who came this time would either be the government to verify the information, or the chief Qin official.

A few breaths.

A tall figure appeared in the snow.

Seeing the visitor, Qin Luoheng quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks, stood up and greeted him.

"Sir, this is a cold day, you are still coming in the snow. If something goes wrong on the road, I can't afford it. Come into the house quickly."

While talking.

Qin Luoheng welcomed Ying Zheng into the house.

He was still very grateful to the Chief Qin.

If it weren't for this senior official, he would have to continue hiding outside. He would even be discovered by someone and arrested to meet the officials. In the end, he would inevitably have the heads to the ground. Now he has not only obtained a household registration, but also has the opportunity to change his household registration.

In the future, you can walk in society more freely.

This kindness is great!

Ying Zheng said with a slight forehead: "It's okay, just after passing Lanchi, I came over to take a look, and asked about your household registration status."

Qin Luoheng said:

"Thank you for your concern."

"My household registration has been completed."

"The officials from Xianyang Households have sent me the 'test, circulated'. Now I am a veritable Qin person."

Ying Zheng nodded.

Immediately I saw the food on the table and frowned.

Qin Luoheng touched his nose.

His table was indeed a bit messy.

He said a little embarrassedly: "I'm really sorry, I forgot the time I read the book in front. The living room has not been cleaned yet. I'll go clean now. Please wait a moment for the lord."

While talking.

I'm going to put the food in the kitchen.

Ying Zheng raised his hand, but did not take it seriously, but sat down instead in his seat, which was quite tempting to be the guest. He said, "No, I didn't happen to have lunch. If there is extra porridge, give me a bowl."

Qin Luoheng was stunned:

"The chief clerk should not joke. People of your status eat rice and meat every day, so how can they eat these mixed grains and wild vegetables?"

Ying Zheng's face turned cold.

Unhappy:

"I'll tell you to go to Sheng!"

"I haven't eaten these mixed grains and wild vegetables before."

"When I was in Handan, the officials of Zhao State deducted our food and income. When we were in a difficult situation, we had eaten all kinds of grains and wild vegetables, even the roots of turf. At that time, I still brought Dan to fight with other young masters to grab food."

"No one of those young men is my opponent!"

Recalling the past, Ying Zheng rarely showed a hint of pride on his face, but then his eyes darkened, and he said with a depressed tone: "It's a pity that we are in our own positions later, and it's hard to go back to the beginning. Even when Dao Rong met, he was already strangers and was rivals."

Seeing that the Chief Qin official's tone was heavy, Qin Luoheng wanted to say something, but in the end he could only sigh.

"This is a troubled time."

"If so, who wants to join the troubled times?"

"But fortunately, the First Emperor has great talent and strategy to wipe out the world and make the world unite. In the future, the world will not start another war, and the world is already peaceful."

Qin Luoheng went to the kitchen to serve a bowl of thick porridge, and specially took a pair of wooden forks and wooden spoons.

People in this era use knives and forks to eat.

Sometimes I will get started directly.

When Qin Luoheng returned from the kitchen, Ying Zheng had returned to calmness, his eyes were calm and deep, as if the emotional fluctuations just now had never happened.

But Qin Luoheng knew.

The scene just now really happened.

One grows and one grows and one eats it like this.

Although Ying Zheng was a little surprised that Qin Luoheng used two long wooden strips to eat, he did not take it seriously. Everyone has their own eating habits, and Qin Luoheng has been wandering around the countryside, so he will inevitably not develop some unique habits.

He didn't care.

After a full meal.
Chapter completed!
