Chapter 13 Stepping on the same river

Lin Yan returned home despite the night ban, and when he entered the door, he heard that his grandmother was unwell.

"Two quarters ago, Mrs. Tai said that she had stomach discomfort, and she has already sent someone to invite her husband." Butler Zhou replied.

"What did Mu eat?" Lin Yan asked as he walked quickly to his grandmother's yard.

"According to the maid next to Mrs. Tai, I ate a few Yujian noodles bought outside in the evening, drank half a bowl of yam soup, and ate a few mouthfuls of fish soup."

Lin Yan frowned and nodded.

Looking at the owner's expression, Butler Zhou helped explain: "There is a new Shenji food shop in the square, which sells meat and steamed buns well. Mrs. Tai has not been appetizing recently, so the cook bought some." The food was eaten, and the cook occasionally went outside to buy some fresh food to make Mrs. Tai happy. Lang Jun thought that he was pampering Mrs. Tai, but seeing that they were still cautious, he opened one eye and closed one eye. I don't know if something happened to this jade tip this time.

After entering the yard, there was a maid waiting, and whispered to Lin Yan, "I vomited once and went to the toilet once, and it was quieter just now."

Lin Yan entered the room and saw her grandmother leaning on the couch with a thin blanket on her belly, looking weak.

"Don't worry about it, I feel better." Mrs. Jiang Tai opened her eyes and smiled.

Mrs. Tai is in good spirits these days and recognizes her grandson.

Lin Yan took two quick steps, came to the couch, sat beside her grandmother, and put her hand on her wrist.

Everyone waited quietly for his pulse.

"It's okay, it's probably because the weather is hot, grandma has a weak spleen and stomach, and eating greasy food makes her uncomfortable." Lin Yan let go of her grandmother's wrist, probed her forehead again, and said warmly.

"Asu also said that he was afraid that the jade tip surface was not clean, but I looked at it well. I pinched the flower folds, and the stuffing was fine. Add some minced bamboo shoots to the pork, and the soup was very fragrant."

Seeing that her grandmother was like this, and she was still thinking about what to eat, Lin Yan couldn't help laughing and crying, "Wait until the weather is cool and your stomach is healthy before eating."

Just as he was talking, Lang Zhong came. Lin Yan took it out, and Lang Zhong hurriedly crossed his hands to salute.

Lin Yan politely returned the salute and personally led him to the grandmother's couch.

Having examined both hands, he asked the maid again, and Lang Zhong said, "Mrs. Tai has a spring and autumn, her spleen and stomach are weak, and she eats a lot of greasy food at night, so she has this disease. I will prescribe two doses of spleen and Qi in a while. , The medicine to regulate the stomach, boil it and eat it, and the diet these days is lighter, and it will be fine."

Lin Yan thanked Langzhong and asked the housekeeper to send it out. Seeing that the dosage on the prescription was very mild and suitable for the elderly, he sent someone to take the prescription out and smashed the door of the pharmacy to buy medicine.

In the middle of the night, the old man took medicine and fell asleep quietly. Lin Yan stayed there for a while before falling asleep in his grandmother's room. When he got up early the next day to go to court, the old man had not woken up yet.

Lin Yan came to his yard to wash up, Shen Jie instructed the relevant kitchen servants, and dealt with two household chores. Because he didn't sleep well and was not hungry, he only drank a few mouthfuls of porridge, ate some boiled chicken, and went out. , Come back again, it's time for thousands of lights.

I went to ask my grandmother first. The old man is already well. After dinner, he is playing leaf cards with his servants and maids. Lin Yan gave a few words, finally calmed down, went back to his yard, changed his official uniform, and took a shower.

"Lang Jun has used the evening meal? The kitchen is still preparing, there are very good mutton and duck." The maid asked with a smile.

There was a palace banquet at noon, and I ate a lot of wine. The meals in the palace were heavy with oil, salt and sugar, and now they are still greasy and stuck in my stomach. Lin Yan waved, "No need, I'll go out for a walk."

Holding the purse and waving to the servants who were about to follow, Lin Yan walked out of the house alone.

Walking slowly along the road in the square, ears are filled with cicadas. There were not many people on the street. occasionally saw a few people enjoying the cool air, and another one who was drunk came out of the restaurant and was staggered back home by the servants.

Taking a few steps forward, Lin Yan saw the lantern with "Shen Ji" written on it swaying in the slight night wind.

Yesterday's troublesome Yujian Noodles was "Shen Ji", and it was this place. Lin Yan suddenly remembered the palace maid at Fangmen who was selling cakes. She didn't sell cakes at Fangmen these days, but she finally boiled it. Can't stop going back to Luoyang, could it be...

Lin Yan walked into the Shenji restaurant.

I haven't seen anyone, but saw a bowl of green rice porridge on the food table, still steaming, a plate of salted duck eggs cut in half, a plate of plain shredded lettuce, and a plate of sour bamboo shoots. Ding, as if the guests have not yet been seated.

Looking at such plain and ordinary home-cooked dishes, Lin Yan suddenly had an appetite.

The large water tank was behind the shop, Shen Shaoguang and A Yuan, who had been busy all day, scooped water to wash their hands and wash their faces. A Yuan splashed water in the back to clean up the soap beans in the washbasin, Shen Shaoguang had a cloth towel on his shoulders, with water droplets on his temples, opened the back door and walked into the store, and saw Lin Shaoyin under the light.

"What do the guests want to eat? There are freshly made rice dumplings and egg yolk dumplings in the kitchen." The steamed buns have been sold out, but the dumplings to be sold in the morning have already been steamed. The glutinous rice is not bad. Shen Shaoguang steamed it the first night without opening the lid. It's already familiar now, so it's okay to give him a few.

"That's it." Lin Yan pointed to the porridge and rice on the table, and said, he found a table and sat down.

"..." Shen Shaoguang pursed his lips, not wanting to offend him in the end, so he had to use a small bowl to mix out a bowl of porridge for him, but the dishes were not good, so he gave them all to Lin Yan. Yes, Shen Shaoguang cut two more.

Lin Yan took a spoon and slowly stirred the porridge in the bowl, which contained Gorgon, lotus seeds, and the faint fragrance of lotus leaves - strengthening the spleen and cooling off the heat, it was a bowl of porridge that was exquisite.

When Ah Yuan came back, she found that after washing her face, the dishes grew legs and flew away, and she couldn't help pouting, but it was a guest, so she couldn't say anything. Shen Shaoguang patted her hand soothingly, afraid that she would not be full, so he went to the cauldron and brought two rice dumplings.

The shredded lettuce was mixed with vinegar and sesame oil, which was very refreshing; the sour bamboo shoots and diced pork tasted a little heavy, and it was salty and suitable for eating porridge; even the salted egg was well marinated, and the egg yolk was oily, but not very Salty, with a bit of rustiness. Before he knew it, Lin Yan ate the whole bowl of porridge, and ate seven or eight of the vegetables, but only 8 pieces and two salted eggs, and only ate four of them.

With a full stomach, Lin Yan's heart also became smoother. It seemed that the affairs of the office during the day were no longer so troublesome, and he teased himself again. This was following in the footsteps of his grandmother, and he was still walking into the same small river ditch.

Lin Yan stood up with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, left a piece of silver, and said to Shen Shaoguang, "Thank you the owner for the hospitality."

The lights flickered, and the man smiled just now, feeling a little like the breeze coming from the lotus pond on a moonlit night. Shen Shaoguang was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, sure enough, the beauty still has to be under the lamp, this Jingzhao Shaoyin is also good-looking in the daytime, but always feels a little cold and inhumane, how can there be such a seductive demeanor just now?

Lin Yan went out, Shen Shaoguang weighed the piece of silver that was two or two, and felt that the beauty was not only beautiful, but also very sensible!
