Chapter 362 Oyster Beads, Man Wen
Because I felt that the only charcoal-roasted oysters and oyster claypot rice on the table was too monotonous, Song Wen went to fry a few more dishes in the middle.
There are oyster (i.e. oyster) noodles and oyster omelets made of oysters, as well as braised oysters and tinned oysters made of delicious sauces.
Various dishes made of oysters have smells, which is really greedy. I gently pick up a large oyster and put it into my mouth. After taking a bite, the thick oyster sauce poured into my mouth. The saliva also came out and swallowed it into my stomach with saliva. The feeling was indescribable.
Song Wen, Xiaojun, Huang Xi, Dan Tai Minglan, Baobao and others didn't care about talking, but just buried their heads in solving the delicious dishes on the table.
"Knock"
"Um..."
Suddenly, Dan Tai Minglan felt that she had bitten something from her teeth. When she spit out, she found that it was something like a bead and a small steamed bun.
"There are stones!" the baby next to him shouted.
"It's not a stone, it seems to be a pearl." Lu An'er next to her corrected.
"It's oyster beads." Song Wen looked at the beads in Dan Tai Minglan's palm that looked slightly red and slightly like steamed buns, and said: "Overyone can have beads, and oysters are no exception. However, the proportion of oyster beads is small, so it is a kind of luck to be eaten."
In the "Miscellaneous Notes on the Eaves. Guangdong Pearl Price" written by Zhao Yi of the Qing Dynasty, it is recorded: "(beads) have oysters and clams: oyster beads have slightly flat bottoms, like steamed buns, and slightly red in color; clam beads have extremely round ones, which are smooth and white and cute."
The principle of oyster beads is the same as that of clams, but it is very rare. However, it is said that nowadays, Japan and China can cultivate oyster beads like artificially cultivated pearls. The oysters that cultivate oyster beads can no longer be eaten and can only be used to make oyster sauce.
"I know, I know."
The baby heard Song Wen's words and said proudly: "The textbook says that the clam's body was trapped in fine sand. If he thought he was sick, he would secrete a kind of pearl to wrap the sand around circles. After the disease was cured, a crystal pearl would appear in the old wound. This story tells us that the clam's experiences difficulties and eventually turns the sand into pearls. People will also transform their shortcomings or shortcomings into shining points when they go through hardships. As stated in "Records of the Grand Historian", King Wen was imprisoned and performed the Zhou Yi, and Zhongni was miserable and wrote the Spring and Autumn Period; Qu Yuan exiled, and was prosecuted by Li Sao; Zuo Qiu was blind and had a Mandarin language; Sun Tzu was crippled, and compiled the Art of War; Buwei moved to Shu. The generation of "Lu Lan"; Han Fei imprisoned Qin, "Talking Difficulties", "Lonely Anger"; 300 poems, which are mostly done by sages;
Therefore, people should face difficulties bravely. You cannot change the whole world, but at least you can change yourself to adapt to the world, just like a clam, secreting pearly substances. There is an idiom called "Clam disease turns into pearls" that tells this story."
When the baby said that, the person next to him was shocked and thought to himself that this little guy has always been silly with thick lines. When did he become so talented?
The words of her good sister, good friend and best friend of the Sparrow instantly solved everyone's doubts. She quietly whispered: "Last time I dictated, the baby wrote the 'camp and beads' as 'half-ill and into a pig', and was punished by the teacher a hundred times. So I am very familiar with this allusion."
Everyone knew that this was the case.
But the baby stopped resigning and turned his head angrily to stare at the sparrow talking. The sparrow cutely stuck out her tongue, not daring to make a sound anymore, and buried her head in eating.
"This oyster bead is good, it has a smooth appearance and a slightly flat bottom. You can use gold as a necklace and set the oyster beads in the middle. If you add some other gems of gems next to it, it will be even more beautiful." Song Wen said to the oyster beads in Dan Tai Minglan's hand.
"No gems, just use crystals. Uncle, don't you have many crystals of color? Just use a few." The baby came over and said.
Song Wen glanced at her angrily and said, "My crystal is very rare. Is it stupid to waste a few crystals for a bead?"
"Who said there is only one, maybe we will have it as we eat it."
"Do you think these oyster beads are your vegetable growing in your home, do you have as much as you want?"
"oops!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a scream from Lu An'er, and then he saw her spit out an oyster bead similar to that in Dan Tai Minglan's hand.
Song Wen smacked his lips and was speechless. Then, he saw that the other people had eaten a few oyster beads, and even he had one. What else could he say? Who said oyster beads are rare? This is simply a big deal. There is no way, he could only contribute five hexagonal crystal columns of different colors to make necklaces. The colored crystals have more crystal color than gems. Later, when made into necklaces, they emit charming light from time to time under the light, which is much better than the effect made of gems.
However, these crystal pillars were collected by him in the cave in the deep mountains. Because he was in a hurry when he came back, he forgot where the cave was. So there was no possibility of picking them again. Now this thing is used for one less, and then five more were taken away, which was enough for him to feel distressed.
After dinner, Song Wen took out the bone flute he got from the mountain from the room and sat on the stone pier outside the yard and wiped it with a soft towel.
After a period of nourishment, the surface of the bone flute brought a moist texture, which was no longer as dull as it was when it was brought out from the mountains, and became as smooth as jade. He specially hung a black spike on the tail of the flute, and the two inexplicable words on the flute were painted red, which looked very beautiful.
He didn't know what the two words on Di meant. He had posted them to the online Chinese Studies Forum for a while, but no one could answer them. I don't know if they were too old or what.
The style of the bone flute is a bit different from the current flute playing. It is a vertical five-hole flute.
Song Wen also learned to play the flute, but it was just a six-hole flute, which was completely different from this one, so he could never play the song, and could only make some messy sounds, which could not be heard at all.
"What are you doing?" Dan Tai Minglan came over and asked while no one was paying attention.
I don’t know if it was because of the intimate relationship, Song Wen felt that she had a little more indistinct tenderness and seemed to be much tired of him. Suddenly, he remembered that Dan Tai Minglan seemed to be specializing in archaeological research, so he quickly picked up the bone flute and asked her, “Do you recognize the words above?”
Dan Tai Minglan looked at it for a long time, but didn't know what words were engraved on it, so she asked, "What is this?"
"I don't know either," Song Wen shook his head, "but I think this should be another word in the text we already know, perhaps the language of a deserted tribe, so I call it 'manwen'."
"Manwen? Not bad. This place was also a wilderness in the past. Where did you come from?"
"I picked it up in the mountains. By the way, you are a national civil servant and you won't want me to return to your post!"
"This is not my responsibility."
While talking to Dan Tai Minglan, Song Wen tried to play a song, but unfortunately it was still a mess, so he had to give up. Seeing that there was no result, he put the bone flute back, then took out the bow and arrow from the room, and prepared to go to the bamboo forest to practice.
Dan Tai Minglan had nothing to do, so he followed him happily...
Last time I was chasing a rabbit in the forest, he felt that the speed of a person was always too slow, so he wanted to find something that could be shot remotely. His family had a hunting gun used in the past, but unfortunately he didn't dare to use it. Not to mention that the gun management is so strict now, he just said that the gunshot sounds so loud. What if someone heard it? So he customized a bow and a few pots of arrows online. He was very strong, so it should be fine to practice using it to shoot rabbits and pheasants.
His bow was specially made by someone. The bow body was made of steel made of springs, which had strong flexibility. The arrows he shot were also made of stainless steel, and the weight was unclear. He was now very strong, and the bows and arrows that were not of this weight were not enough.
A circular arch target stands in the bamboo forest.
When he arrived at the place, Song Wen did not stop and directly pulled the bow and shot the arrow. The arrow hit the target, but did not hit the red heart, but was also around the second and third rings near the red heart. Dan Tai Minglan was interesting and wanted to try it, so Song Wen handed the bow and arrow to her, but unfortunately she had never shot and was unable to get the point.
Song Wen reluctantly taught her step by step.
He gently pinched her hand and grabbed the bow, then used his right hand to pull up the bowstring, as if he was holding her in his arms.
They were so close that both of them could hear each other's breath and their hearts. Flashes of male breath passed by their ears. Somehow, Dan Tai Minglan's ears turned red in an instant. Song Wen looked at them interestingly and blew in her ears. Dan Tai Minglan was very annoyed, and gave him a elbow with hatred, then turned around and glared at him fiercely, which made him restrain himself a little.
Just then, a sound suddenly came from behind.
Song Wen turned around and saw the baby, crow, sparrow, Lu Aner and other little kids sitting on the black and white camels, female buffalo and little buffalo walking over, followed by the little calf who hadn't been born for a long time.
The baby and others were out to play. After passing through the concave of bamboos, they suddenly saw the two of them hugging each other. Unconsciously, they opened their mouths and widened their eyes, with their faces full of incredible expressions.
Seeing their expressions, Song Wen didn't know what they were thinking. He quickly separated from Dan Tai Minglan and said, "Why are you here? I'm teaching your sister Alan to shoot arrows. Don't interfere with us here."
After hearing this, the baby and others looked carefully, they found that the two were really shooting arrows. They thought they had something to do with love?
Originally, the few people wanted to explore it and go back to report it, but when they saw the bow and arrow in Song Wen's hand, they immediately became interested and shouted to learn.
Song Wen had no choice but to teach, otherwise he would not have a good result if he offended these little kids.
