Chapter 8 Old Friends and Tail Burning Feast


At the end of the award, Dad walked towards Zhang Chao and them, his face was filled with unconcealable joy.

"Congratulations, brother, I will be the deputy of our former regiment left team in the future."

There are five groups in a team, and although Dad is only a deputy to the promotion team, he is also the second-in-command in the fifty-person government army.

The leaders of the various groups came to meet their new bosses.

Ke Wu also followed behind several gang leaders, and he turned out to be a captain in Daddy's gang.

Dad turned out to be a group of ten people, and the five people were divided into two teams, Dad was the gang leader and the left team leader, and Ke Wu was the right team leader.

Now Daddy has been promoted to deputy of the team, Ke Wu has taken over the position of the team leader, and the position of the left Wu Wu is also the head of the left team, and the position of the right Wu Wu is taken over by Ke Shan, a yellow-faced knife player from the same village.

"It's just a team vice."

Daddy laughed, but he could see that he was still very happy.

"The deputy of the team was promoted and awarded a medal today, this is a joy, and the brothers want to eat your roasted tail feast at noon."

"How about eating wine in Ke Qiniang's shop at the door," Cui Hao, the team leader, who was standing next to his father, said with a smile.

This team leader is the old team leader of Dad's team, but he is not old, he is in his early thirties, and he is from Bailu Township.

The roasted tail banquet was originally a wine banquet for the promotion of court officials and the banquet to thank the emperor for his kindness.

Somehow, it quickly became popular among the people.

Nowadays, not only the ministers are promoted to set up a roasted tail feast, but even ordinary petty officials and officials are promoted, and they also have to hold a feast, and it is also called a roasted tail feast.

Folklore varies as to the meaning of the roast tail.

One is that the status of a human has changed suddenly, just like a tiger becoming a human, and the tail is still big, so it needs to be burned.

The other is that when the new sheep first enters the sheep, it will be at peace because of the interference of the sheep, and only by burning the tail of the new sheep will it settle down, and it will enter the bureaucratic class from the common people, just like the new sheep entering and leaving the flock, it is difficult to adapt to the new environment for a while, so it needs to burn its tail.

There is also a saying that the carp jumps over the dragon gate, and the heavenly fire must pour off the tail to become a dragon.

No matter which way it is said, the roasted tail has the meaning of promotion and renewal, so the feast is named the roasted tail feast.

The roasted tail banquet where those courtiers were promoted to the Son of Heaven to thank him was extremely rich, and the dishes were even more sumptuous than the Manchu and Han banquets in later generations.

However, ordinary officials are promoted, and this banquet is just an opportunity to have a lively and communicate with the relationship between new colleagues.

Dad was promoted to deputy of the team, and his actual position was promoted from Jiupin, which can be regarded as a jump from a civilian to a military attaché.

This real job is not comparable to the honors and honors of the goods, this is the real officer.

Dad didn't want to spoil everyone's interest on such a lively day, so he agreed.

"I'll go and inform the Seventh Lady to prepare wine and food, and I must have a few drinks at noon today."

Ke Wu smiled and walked outside the camp.

On the school field, there was a lot of excitement, and the soldiers who went out to fight were more or less rewarded, and they were all smiling.

The soldiers on duty were also watching the excitement, and they congratulated the villagers who had received the rewards, and let them have a drink by the way.

Everyone was not stingy at this time, and they all smiled and nodded.

So everyone who knew each other made an appointment to go for a drink.

"It's really lively in the countryside today."

Ke Shan, who had been newly promoted to Wu Chang, smiled, and his yellow face was flushed.

He also got a lot of money and grain today, a few hundred catties of corn, and a reward of money and silk, and now he has been promoted to a captain, of course he is happy.

Daddy's rewards are many, there are dozens of catties of silver and copper alone, not to mention more than 1,000 catties of corn, and a lot of cloth.

"Borrow a car and pull things to Ke Qiniang's shop first."

Ke Shan said with a smile, but his father was silent.

There was a cart in the barracks, and mules were put on it, and Ke Shan beckoned to the companions of the same village, and together they helped the father to transport the money and corn for the reward.

"Who is this Ke Qi Niang?"

Zhang Chao has heard everyone talk about Ke Qi Niangzi a few times, and seeing them pull their father's money and food to her store, this relationship is very close.

Ke Shan turned his head to look at the father who was talking to Team Liu, and then leaned into Zhang Chao's ear and smiled, "Ke Qi Niangzi is also a woman from our Zhangjiagou, but she married to Zhaozhuang next door in her early years.

Her man used to be a government soldier, and he died when he went to Hedong to fight Liu Wuzhou the year before last, and Qi Niang was widowed, and she also took two female babies.

Brother Iron Gun saw that their mothers were pitiful, so he often helped one or two.

Brother Iron Gun is kind-hearted, and the Seventh Lady opened a small restaurant outside our barracks, and the capital is also from Brother Iron Gun. ” Zhang Chao saw the meaning in Ke Shan's tone when he spoke, and immediately understood.

It is estimated that Dad is not only kind to help, but may also have some other meanings.

"Uncle Shan, is it interesting for Dad and the Seventh Lady to do so?"

"Hey, you're an elf, like arithmetic just now, and in some places you really don't look like a person who has been in the mountains for a long time.

I'm telling you, don't tell your daddy.

In fact, everyone can see that Dad is interested in Ke Qi Niangzi, and this Ke Qi Niangzi also understands Ke Qi Niangzi's intentions for the iron gun brother, I guess the two of them must have passed that in private. ” As he spoke, he gave Zhang Chao a look that all men understand.

Zhang Chao nodded again and again.

Lang is affectionate, and concubines are intentional.

One is a young widow and the other is a half-old widower, and it is normal for dry wood to encounter a fire between two people, and it is not uncommon for it to burn.

During the Sui and Tang dynasties, the society was heavily affected by Hu Feng, and the atmosphere was still relatively open, and it was normal for widows to remarry, and even the imperial court openly encouraged widows to remarry in order to encourage the resumption of production after the war and increase the population, and even encouraged those young people to marry early.

However, it is not so simple and easy for two people to get along and live together, after all, they also have to take into account the children, the husband's family and so on.

Pulling a cart full of corn out of the camp gate, walking a dozen steps to the right-hand side, there is a storefront.

"Seventh sister, this is Brother Iron Gun's food, let's put it here first."

Ke Shan shouted in a loud voice.

"Okay, just put it back and cut it."

A neat woman responded, and the voice fell, and a woman in her thirties appeared.

The woman wears a skirt and is a tight-fitting and narrow style.

The upper and lower skirt is a narrow and short jacket with a longer than the undergarment and shorter than the robe.

The undergarment is short, while the skirt is long.

The woman's skirt was tied very high, directly under the armpits, and was actually on the chest.

With a high waist, corseted breasts, close to the hips, and wide swings, an ordinary skirt is worn on her, but it fully reveals her well-proportioned and slender curves, and also reveals a bit of chic and graceful demeanor.

The woman's eyebrows are clear and beautiful, with a goose egg face, just looking at her face, Zhang Chao feels that this woman is very kind.

"Seventh sister, come on, let me introduce you, this is Brother Tiegun's newly adopted son, named Zhang Chao."

The woman was shocked to hear that the tall, white-haired and handsome young man in front of her was actually Zhang Tiegun's newly adopted son.

"Hello Aunt Qi, my name is Zhang Chao, I used to be a monk, but now I am still vulgar when I go down the mountain, and my father loves to accept me as a son."

Ke Qiniang was obviously a little caught off guard, and stood there for a while before coming back to her senses, "Oh, that's it, let's go into the house, it's cold outside." ” It is said that it is a dinner party, but in fact, there is no decent restaurant on the street in this township.

Ke Qi Niangzi's restaurant, in fact, is a small noodle restaurant, the main noodle food, guests eat what they do, soup cakes, will also steam some steamed cakes, if necessary, you can also fry some pancakes to sell.

However, this shop is really simple, about thirty or forty square meters of storefront, one to the end, there are about ten tables in it, all of which are very ordinary wooden tables, with stools, very simple.

There is only one lady inside and outside the store, and there is no other helper.

After a while, Daddy came over with Team Leader Liu.

"Today, the brothers in our team came to take care of the food, eat as much as they want, and they all recorded it in my account."

Daddy is very bold.

A team of fifty people, the team leader sat at a table with several gang leaders and the government soldiers from the same village in the team, and the rest of the people were casual.

Fortunately, everyone is very happy to have free food, and they are not picky.

"Let's eat soup cakes, it's easy and convenient."

Ke Qi Niangzi will help her father save money, and chose the simplest, convenient and affordable soup cake, that is, noodles.

The men in the team are not picky, and they are very satisfied to have soup cakes to eat.

Ke Wu and Ke Shan, one went to the only deli on the street to buy cooked meat, and the other went to drink.

The shop was busy, and many other soldiers also came to eat.

This one shouted for a bowl of soup cakes, and the other shouted for a few cooking cakes, so it was not lively.

"Xiaolian, come over and help."

Ke Qiniang was in a hurry, and she couldn't be busy.

"Here we go."

A tall little girl of about eleven or twelve years old came out from behind with a girl of eight or nineteen years old, the girl with her sleeves rolled up, and water in her hands, as if she had just washed the dishes in the back.

Zhang Chao estimated that these two girls were Ke Qi Niang's daughters, and the two girls did look very similar to Ke Qi Niang.

The little girl is not afraid of life, and is very accustomed to the scene of commotion in the store.

The eldest girl helped roll the dough, and the little girl helped light the fire, and the cooperation was very tacit.

Everyone's ladies will not show their heads easily, but for ordinary people, these are not so particular.

"San Lang, help greet the folks."

Seeing that the business was so good, Dad simply rolled up his sleeves and came over to help knead the dough.

Several fellow villagers in Zhangjiagou also helped to greet guests and serve bowls and noodles.

"Oh."

Zhang Chao smiled and nodded, and also joined the lively small noodle restaurant business. t1706231537:
