Chapter two hundred and sixty fifth poverty and wealth
In a blink of an eye, April was already in the morning, and the examinations of the Ming Dynasty were held on April 20, and candidates from all counties under the jurisdiction of Runing Prefecture also gathered in Runing Prefecture on this day.

Chen Kang and other students of Lu Ming set out on the road together as usual.
In April last year, there were fewer classmates who went to Ru Ning Mansion to participate in the examination, and some new faces were added. The carriage convoy consisted of thirteen carriages, including Chen Kang, Wang Lucao, Jiang Liuyu, Wang Luan, Sun Zhou, and Song Yuan.
Because there are many people familiar with it, it is naturally very lively along the way.
After walking ten miles outside the city of Runing Mansion, Chen Kangyao looked at the lush forests on both sides of the official road and was in a good mood. He turned to look at Liu Shu and smiled and said, "Call to stop the carriage."
Liu Shu lifted the curtain of the car and said to Wei Wubai: "Young Master wants to stop the car."
Wei Wubai shouted: "Dou!" and tightened the reins.
The wheels took several steps forward and finally stopped slowly.
Shen Kang stopped the car in the workshop behind and also stopped one after another.
Chen Kang jumped out of the carriage and looked up at the sky. It was like blue water washing, and he breathed deeply the fresh air in the forest, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised upwards.
Jiang Liuyu and others jumped out of the carriage and came to Chen Kang.
Jiang Liuyu said, "Why are you going to enter the city after a while?"
Wang Luan asked: "Chen San, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Chen Kang smiled and shook his head, saying, "I saw the lush woods on both sides of the road, so I wanted to take a rest here."
Wang Lucao looked up at the surrounding scenery. The mountains in the distance were rolling and green like jade dragons. On the nearby hillside, tender grass drilled out of the soil. The towering tree above his head was lush with lush branches and leaves, and the leaves were shiny.
The leaves gently blew in the warm spring breeze, like a baby's little hand, tender and full of vitality.
He unconsciously raised the corner of his mouth, put away the folding fan, and said to the servant beside him: "Pujin, we want to rest here for a while."
"Yes." The servant next to him lowered his head and agreed, then called a few helpers, searched through the carriage, and became busy.
Sun Zhou laughed and said, "Hey, if you don't say it, I didn't notice that the scenery here is so elegant."
Song Yuan laughed and said, "Brother Sun is wild and I can't see this scenery. Hahaha." As he said that, there was another burst of hearty laughter.
While the few people were joking, the servant of Wang Lucao's family had already taken out a roll of clean brocade in the car and spread it under the tree with this big tree.
Another servant came forward with a thick brocade couch and separated the brocade couch. The exquisite plates and bowls contained seasonal fruits, light wine and water, and were handed over to the plain brocade one by one.
This long plain brocade is like a Milky Way under the sunlight. The small mud pot on the fire sizzles white heat, and the fresh tea fragrance lingers on the tip of the nose, making the people's cheeks slightly warm.
But within a few breaths, the outdoor feast was placed in front of everyone.
Wang Lucao took the lead in stepping on Su Jin and sat steadily on the brocade bed. Jiang Liuyu sat on it as usual.
Wang Luan looked at all this and couldn't help but secretly stuttering his tongue and smiled and said, "It's so luxurious."
Wang Lu held a folding fan in his hand, slowly slapped his chest, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be polite, please sit down quickly."
"Then I'd rather obey my destiny." Wang Luan bowed his hand and sat up with a solemn expression on his face. The rest of the people bowed and humbled to the people around him, and then walked up. Chen Kang felt that he was the youngest and waited for everyone to sit firmly before he finally went up and sat down in the empty seat.
Jiang Liuyi lowered his eyes and looked at the wild feast in front of him, and said dissatisfiedly: "Wuyang, bring the lunch box we brought."
Wu Yang bowed and then got into his own carriage.
Sun Zhou said "tsk": "We can't finish these foods at all, and Brother Jiang is not satisfied."
Jiang Liuqi shook his head and said, "No, no."
Everyone looked at him one after another, waiting for Jiang Liuyu's high-profile talk.
The eyes of everyone made him feel very satisfied. He stood up and walked slowly around everyone while stepping on Su Jin.
He raised his head and smiled and said, "This person lives for a lifetime. Some people face the loess and backs to the sky, working hard all their lives just to fill their stomachs. Some people don't have to worry about food and clothing at the end of their lives. Some people not only have to worry about food and clothing, but also have to pursue the word "good" at all times."
He thrust his chest and said, "It's like me. I came from the Jiang family in Qingzhou. Our Jiang clan, regardless of the branches or the side roots, is always Wangmen. This Wangmen naturally needs to have the style of Wangmen. Otherwise, how can we call the word "wangmen"?"
Everyone here is not as good as Jiang Liuyu's family. When he heard this, he felt that the wealthy family was worthy of being a wealthy family, and there were such great principles in terms of food and drink.
Chen Kang also learned a little from the Ming and Qing dynasties, but he was not as good as what he saw with his own eyes. What else could he say:
In short, it's just one sentence: Poverty limits my imagination.
But Jiang Liuyu has not finished speaking...
Wu Yang took out a six-story food box from the carriage, carried it by two servants, and came to Su Jinyeyan next to Su Jinyeyan.
As soon as the food box was opened, a plate of exquisite side dishes appeared in front of everyone. The red ones were pickled fruits, the green ones were green ones, and the tender yellow ones were the core of the vegetable. However, a handful of salt was sprinkled with it, which was the simplest and most refreshing side dish with wine.
Jiang Liuyu pointed to the dish and said with a smile: "This food does not require pursuing complexity in everything. Just like this side dish, it must be refreshing. If you add more ingredients and cooking techniques, it will be a waste of resources."
At this time, the second plate of dish was taken out. It was better to say it was a soup than to say it was a dish.
Jiang Liuyu squatted down with a smile and said, "This is called Jianlian Red Date Soup."
Chen Kang asked with a smile: "What's the trick?"
Jiang Liuying smiled and said, "Hehe, the best among lotus seeds can be called Jianlian. This Jianlian, also known as Tongxinlian, has been removed from the skin and core, which can calm the mind and nourish the heart. As red dates, there is no need to say more, a good product for replenishing blood and qi. Add two slices of crisp and tender white fungus, and it becomes this medicinal food."
He paused slightly and then said, "Soak the red dates and lotus seeds in clean water respectively. The red dates need to be soaked in clean water for half an hour, and the lotus seeds need to be soaked for a whole hour. After soaking, add clear spring water to the casserole, and then put the soaked red dates and Jianlian into the casserole to boil over high heat, then turn to low heat for half an hour. If you like sweetness, add some sugar and wait until the sugar is completely melted, then come out of the pot and the work is done!"
The poor imagined the life of the upper class, just like holding a steamed bun. If Jiang Liuyu had not said this, how could they know what the life of the nobles were like.
A dish of Tremella lotus seed soup can also be said in a long way, ah, no, it is Jianlian Red Date Soup.
Listening to him saying this, Wang Lucao smiled indifferently and said, "Put a bowl first and try it."
Jiang Liuyu was talking excitedly. When he saw Wang Lucao holding it like this, instead of being slight, he seemed very happy. He actually smiled and took a small bowl from Wu Yang's hand, put two spoons of Jianlian Red Date Soup, and handed it to Wang Lucao.
