When the sun was about to set, Old Man Liu came over with a hunched back and shook his palm fan. Soon after, Yang Dayuan, Yang Dabiao, Ermazi and Ermao came together.

Zhao Qi introduced Chen Ji, Yao Ran, Yang Dayuan and others. When he learned that the two young scholars in front of him were two candidates who participated in the provincial examination, he immediately scared Yang Dayuan and Old Man Liu and others, and they all held their breath and bowed respectfully.

Juren, the entire Yanggong Town has not produced a few more than a hundred years.

There are great scholars in chatting and laughing, but no one can communicate with each other.

Every scholar who passed the imperial examination was a noble scholar. He either became an official in the capital or had already made a fortune in other places. He could not see him on weekdays just by wanting to see him.

Today, two juren came to Zhao Qi's house together. This honor is rare, so Yang Dayuan and others were all careful. Even Ermazi and Ermao, who usually laughed and laughed, became more responsible, and they would speak from time to time to show the cultural level of primary school students in their village.

Seeing that everyone was here, Zhao Qi stopped bragging and fucking. After accusing him of the crime, he went into the cave and started cooking.

Nearly an hour passed, Zhao Qi, Xiao Zhu and Old Lady Su were busy inside.

Accompanied by the sound of cooking, a strong fragrance kept floating out of the cave.

Two groups of people of completely different varieties, Ermazi and Chen Ji, spoke none outside the cave, but they were a little absent-minded and sucked their noses from time to time. They felt that every time a different fragrance came out, it was an uncontrollable temptation of food.

"Brother Erma, help move the table and stools and prepare for dinner!"

After Zhao Qi finished packing up all the dishes, he shouted at the outside of the cave. Ermazi and Ermao rushed in, scrambling to move tables and chairs, and then set up seats in the open space outside the cave.

However, today there are more people, and the chairs, bowls, chopsticks, cups are not enough. Yang Dayuan and Yang Dahu went to A'an's house next door to borrow a few pairs of bowls, chopsticks, pottery cups and stools. Old Man Liu was also busy helping to put the wine in the wine to place the bowls and chopsticks. Except for Chen Ji and Yao Ran, almost everyone started to work in an instant.

"It's really enviable to see the neighbors so harmonious!" Chen Ji felt emotion as he watched the busy group of people.

"Brother Zhao is a generous and generous person. Although his family is poor, he has extraordinary knowledge and is natural for his neighbors to get close to him. However, I look forward to this dinner even more. The sky is covered with the ground and the wind is setting sun, which is a never-ending fun!" Yao Ran nodded in his saliva.

"Brother Yao, we should do our best to what Brother Zhao asked today, so don't let him down!" Chen Ji reminded.

"This is natural, but who can say the exam accurately? One is to look at understanding and the other is to be abilities. Mr. Yang is just a scholar in the Mingjing subject. There is nothing special about talking to him. I believe that the students taught will not be too excellent. In addition, the current government is corrupt, selling official positions are prevalent, and the number of places in county schools is limited. If you don't ask for a while, I'm afraid that even if you get excellent grades in the exam, you may not be able to get what you want..." Yao Ran sighed with a serious look.

"Brother Yao means..."

"Of course, my meaning is very simple. Brother Zhao didn't understand these messy things in the officialdom when he was young, but we had experienced all the way. This is even more so in this spring exam. After the exam was released, many students secretly said that they were suspected of cheating. The two people who were on the list with us in terms of knowledge and essays, I think they are all above them. Several strategies and arguments are also meaningful. However, after the announcement, they were hundreds of people behind. These two people heard that they had contact with some officials in the capital..."

"No, you have to copy the name in the past exam..."

"Haha, it's just a matter of going through the motions. As long as there are people in the court to help, it's easy to cheat. You can just write some secret codes in the policy-based answers and recognize them. Brother Chen, don't be too pedantic!" Yao Ran sneered.

"Oh, that's right. After hearing what Brother Zhao said today, I was a little discouraged. Even if I was in the top three, so what if I didn't join Ding Daquan, I wouldn't have a chance to make a comeback in my life. It's far better to go home to do business and farming. With your and my talents and abilities, I think I won't live a bad life in my life!" Chen Ji sighed after a while.

"So if Brother Zhao wants to successfully enter the county school, he will probably not succeed by relying on his ability. I think he should go to Yin County to have an activity in advance. Even if he doesn't look for Duke Chongguo and Ye Xijian, he must find the county school officials to handle it."

"Since Brother Yao is so worried, let's talk to Brother Zhao tomorrow to see if he can make up some money. We still know several students from the same class in Yin County. Moreover, they will not be too embarrassed when they visit the county school as ours!" Chen Ji nodded.

"Two masters, stop chatting, please go to the table!" Ermazi ran over and bowed respectfully.

"Thank you, no need to be so polite, please, Brother Erma!"

"Uh, please treat me, two distinguished guests!"

Brother Erma made Erma walk happily, and his face was red with red roaring in joy in the sunset.

"Two brothers, my humble house is simple. Today I will have a meal in the open air. Don't be polite. You have enough wine, drinks, and food. As for whether it suits your appetite, please take care of it. I've made a few dishes randomly!" Zhao Qi smiled and held a clay pot, which was filled with hot and fragrant boiled loaches.

"Brother Zhao is very welcoming, and just smelling the smell makes me impatient!"

"That's right. Brother Zhao has been busy for most of the time, and I have been drooling for more than half of the time. Come and join us together!"

Chen Ji and Yao Ran smiled and bowed down together.

In addition to Zhao Qi, Ermao and Yang Dahu and Yang Dayuan also came out of the cave one after another. Each of them held a dish and soon filled the small bamboo table.

A dish of stewed loach with gourd, a dish of hot eel slices, a dish of dried fried pepper-flavored rabbit diced rice, a dish of garlic sprouts and a can of hot braised fat intestines that are rolling hot.

These dishes are served in large pots, full of portions, and all kinds of fragrances are mixed together, which makes everyone feel like their internal organs are squirming wildly.

"It smells so fragrant~" Yao Ran looked at the table with his sleeves, rubbing his saliva and his eyes shining.

Later, Xiaozhu brought out a cold cucumber and fried wheat vegetables, which were all delivered by Grandma Zhang next door yesterday.

The dishes were all in an instant, and Old Man Liu also opened the wine pot. Ermazi started with Chen Ji and Yao Ran, and each of them filled a glass of rice wine.

"Okay, everyone is welcome to the table. They are all their own family. Don't be polite, get started!" Zhao Qi wiped his hands on his clothes and sat down.

"Why don't the grandmother and the younger sister come to have dinner?" Chen Ji turned around and found that Xiaozhu and the old lady Su were actually carrying the basket, so he couldn't help asking.

"There are too many people and the tables are too small. There are still some food left in the kitchen. They went to eat with the neighbor's sister-in-law A Lian and Grandma Zhang. They were more relaxed and comfortable than with us men. They were hungry for a long time. Let's have a drink together first. Welcome the two brothers to enjoy their faces, please!" Zhao Qi raised his glass with a smile.

"That's good. I've offended you. Please drink a full drink together!" Chen Ji and Yao Ran raised their glasses with relief.

"Please, two masters!" Yang Dayuan, Yang Dahu, Ermao Ermazi and Old Man Liu also quickly picked up the wine glasses with both hands.

“Damn~”

Zhao Qi raised his head and took the lead in putting half a glass of wine into his mouth. When everyone drank it and put down the wine glass, Zhao Qi then picked up the chopsticks and greeted the dishes with a smile. Although the group of people were a little restrained, they all picked up the chopsticks and started to aim at the delicious food they liked. So seven or eight pairs of chopsticks almost fell on a plate of repot meat.

"Well, it's delicious, the meat is fragrant. I didn't expect that the pork is so delicious..."

"I really didn't expect that Brother Zhao was actually a master of food. This time the pot pork was more delicious than Grand Master Su's Dongpo pork. It was the first time I met it in my life..."

After drinking the meat with one mouthful, Chen Ji and Yao Ran's eyes suddenly widened, and while they were full of praise, they picked up a few more pieces of chopsticks.

"Hehe, Brother Qi'er's refried pork must be the best in the world. The two masters will try the loach and eel again, and it will be as delicious as well!" Ermazi smiled and introduced other dishes.

"This is the rabbit that Uncle Dahu kicked to death yesterday. I stir-fry it in pepper, garlic and bean sauce, which is also very tasty. Let's taste it together!" Zhao Qi smiled and picked up a piece of dry-fried rabbit diced rice.

"Um... Um... It's really delicious, even the bones are already crispy. Everyone, try it..." Yang Dahu and a rabbit were in the mouth, and his beard shook a few times on his face, and he chewed his mouth while applauding.

"I have stewed this pig intestine for an hour. It is fragrant and strong, so everyone can try it together!" Zhao Qi picked up a chopstick again, trembling and hot intestine, greeting him with a smile.

"I'll try it!" Yang Dayuan quickly followed with chopsticks.

The fat intestines are not eaten by wealthy families and literati and scholars, but for ordinary people, it is also a meat dish that can supplement oil and water. Because the price is much cheaper than meat, sometimes I buy some to cook them, but I am not good at cooking them. Maybe it is not clean and will have a strong smell when cooked. Therefore, few people like to eat them. Generally, some low-grade foot houses or snack vendors buy them into chowders with pork belly, heart and lungs, etc., and sell them to some porters to fill their stomachs. It is definitely an ingredient that cannot be used on the countertop.

However, Zhao Qi asked, regardless of whether it tastes delicious or not, Yang Dayuan naturally had to express his support first.

Yang Dahu Ermazi and Ermao Liu Taiye, almost all regarded Zhao Qi as the soul figure in the core circle because of the glass repair. Naturally, they all cooperated happily, and several pairs of chopsticks fell into a can of fat intestines in an instant.

"When she was my mother, this pig intestine was so delicious!" Ermao almost jumped up while chewing the chopsticks and couldn't wait to penetrate the clay pot again.

"Woooo... it's really delicious, fragrant and chewy, it's even better than the refried pork!"

"That's it, it tastes several times better, and it's also good and watery..."

Ermazi, Yang Dahu, Yang Dayuan both exclaimed loudly, and several pairs of chopsticks also reached into the clay pot.

"Brother Qi'er's pig intestine is really clean, and it doesn't smell at all!" Although Old Man Liu's teeth were not good, he was also full of eyebrows and smiled and praised him.

"Take it, brothers, it's really delicious!" Zhao Qi signaled while eating.

Chen Ji and Yao Ran looked at each other in fear, but they felt that it was very rude to not take a bite from the master. What's more, they also expected Zhao Qi to help send them home. Therefore, after a brief hesitation, they both raised their chopsticks and carefully picked up the smallest piece, and sent it to their mouths. They resisted the resistance of their souls, held their breath, closed their eyes, stomped their feet and stuffed a piece of fat intestine into their mouths.

"Yeah~"

The moment the fat intestines entered the mouth, a strong fragrance that had never tasted exploded in the mouth, making all the taste buds jump almost at the same time. I couldn't help but chewing it a few more times. A strong texture collided between the lips and teeth and the tip of the tongue, creating a taste that I had never felt before. The soul could not resist the temptation of this kind of delicacy in an instant.

Damn, it smells so good!

Chen Ji and Yao Ran opened their eyes suddenly, and in the extreme surprise, two pairs of chopsticks reached into the pottery jar almost at the same time.

The fat intestines are so delicious that the two elegant juren instantly threw their contempt and reserve into Java.

Zhao Qi's fat intestine has also become the most popular dish at this simple dinner. A can of fat intestines and seven or eight pairs of chopsticks quickly decreased.

The remaining double-cooked meat, dried fried diced rabbits, stewed loaches, fried eels, and even two vegetarian dishes were not spared.

Eat meat, drink, chat, drink three times and go through the five flavors.
