Chapter 201 (1/2)
As soon as she got close to the stone table, Jiang Wan smelled the smell of crab that made her fingers move.
When she looked at the stone table, she saw that on the stone table were the Su style dishes carefully prepared by Hu Baoshan's kitchen, including squirrel mandarin fish, fried eel paste, crab tendon, clear shrimp, etc. in the middle of the table was a steamer, in which were four red hairy crabs, bigger than the palm of the hand.
On one side of the stone table, there is a small red clay stove, on which a pot of yellow rice wine is heated, emitting a strong aroma.
”This crab is cold, you can't eat more.” Xiao Ruixuan took out a set of eight pieces of crabs wrapped with silver flowers and said to Jiang Wan with a smile while carefully peeling the hairy crabs.
Jiang Wan, on the other hand, looks curiously at this typical Jiangnan Building, with white walls and tiles, and some exaggerated eaves flying to the sky.
In the past, she once went on a business trip to Suzhou, but because of the time arrangement, she did not set foot in the most famous Suzhou garden, which became a pity in her life.
In the last life, when she arrived at the Daliang Dynasty, she was trapped in the high wall of red wall and yellow tile every day, living like a canary.
”I don't know if the Humble Administrator's garden and the lion forest are far from here.” Jiang Wan looked at the pavilions, small bridges and flowing water around her with a smile, and asked curiously.
In recent years, she would like to have a visit to make up for her regret.
But then she felt that her idea was ridiculous.
Even if the famous gardens in Suzhou are close at hand, it is impossible for you to visit them. After all, those gardens are private houses of other people's homes. They are not parks for visitors to go in and out at will, just like later generations.
”Humble Administrator's garden?” Xiao Ruixuan put a ball of oily crab roe into her mouth and thought with a slight frown, ”there is a lion forest temple in the east of the city, but you have never heard of the Humble Administrator's garden.”
Jiang Wan was satisfied with the sweet and delicious crab roe, but he opened his eyes incredulously.
Never heard of it?
How!
But she understood.
Although she lived in the Daliang Dynasty, which was equivalent to the Ming Dynasty, there were some deviations in the development of history. Either the time had not come, or Wang Xianchen, who was frustrated in officialdom, had not yet returned to his hometown to build a garden.
In other words, there is probably no shadow of Humble Administrator's garden at all now!
”It's Shizilin temple in the north of the city. If you're interested, I'll go with you tomorrow.” Xiao Ruixuan's eyes were warm, and he pushed over a plate of hairy crabs that had been peeled. ”There are thousands of bamboo trees in the temple, and there are many strange rocks under the bamboo trees. They look like lion dragons. It's worth seeing.”
”The lion forest?” Jiang Wanqi said, ”aren't we going to Hangzhou?”
”There are still three days left. It's not urgent.” Xiao Ruixuan was very considerate and poured a cup of yellow rice wine for Jiang Wan. He found that he was more and more used to serving Jiang Wan, a little girl, and he also enjoyed it. ”From Suzhou to Hangzhou, two days is enough. I won't miss the tide of Qiantang River.”
When Jiang Wan heard this, she nodded her head busily, swept away the crab meat in front of her, and then blinked at Xiao Ruixuan.
How could Xiao Ruixuan not know what she was up to.
