There was no maritime ban in the Dali Dynasty, but only village fishermen went out to sea to salvage and fish. Were there any merchant caravans that really went out to sea? Six or seven years later, pirates frequently attacked. The war lasted for three years, and a prince died. Finally, the sea ban was simply imposed.
Chili peppers seem to have come from America.
”What are you thinking about, husband? You are staring at the pot. Are you hungry? I’ll make you a bowl of soup first.”
Gu Zhao said, “I’m not hungry. I’ll eat with Dad later. I’ll go back to the house first.”
He remembered something.
Since I have just traveled through time, I quickly wrote down the miscellaneous memories of modern history that are still clear, such as corn seeds and peppers. I wrote down whatever I thought of.
When Gu Zhao returned to the room, the light was already dim, so he had to light an oil lamp and put it on the table. He originally wanted to write two lines, but in the end he just drew a rough version of the world map based on his memory, mainly the four oceans and seven continents. He certainly couldn’t remember the details.
As I was painting, I started to mark the climate.
When he heard the sound of footsteps outside the room, Gu Zhao put down his pen. He had already written on two large pages.
”I’m here.” Gu Zhao carried the oil lamp and placed it on the table in the main hall. Dad and Zhou Zhou were waiting for him to eat. “I forgot the time when I wrote it. Dad and Zhou Zhou, don’t wait for me next time, otherwise it will get cold.”
Li Zhouzhou handed his husband a towel to wipe his hands, saying, “Just brought it over.”
The family is not so polite.
Gu Zhao didn’t say much after hearing this. He wiped his hands and sat down to eat. He took a pancake and hissed because it was hot. Li Zhouzhou saw his husband like this, with a smile on his face and heartache. He took the pancake from her husband’s hand, broke it open, scooped out a layer of vegetables with a spoon, and handed it to his husband after it was done.
”Be careful with the heat.”
”Thank you, wife~” Gu Zhao said excitedly.
Li Da was already used to this spoiled son-in-law. He didn’t look at the young couple. He calmly reached out and grabbed the pancake, and ate it with chopsticks with vegetables. Now, after seeing how Zhou Zhou made it, he realized that it could be broken open, so he asked why the pancake was not round today.
He didn’t eat it right away, but broke it in half and put vegetables in the middle of the pancake like Zhou Zhou did. Li Da took a bite, and half of the pancake was gone, but he could still hold the bowl with his other hand and drink some hot soup. This was much more convenient.
”Making cakes this way is all in the husband’s favor.” Li Zhouzhou said to his father.
Before Li Da could say anything, he saw his brother-in-law leaning against Zhou Zhou’s arm and saying happily, “It’s not that great, just a few ordinary little ideas. It’s mainly because of Zhou Zhou that it’s so delicious.”
”My husband is amazing.”
”Zhou Zhou is the best~”
”…” Li Da ate his cake and didn’t really want to talk.
Anyway, I don’t know how the family atmosphere has become like this. Li Da can’t learn from this. In the past, when he and Zhou Zhou sat down to eat, they ate separately without talking, just eating. Now——
Li Da couldn’t bear to watch it, but he thought it was good to have some fun.
After dinner, Li Zhouzhou went to wash the pots and dishes and boil hot water for washing.
Li Da stopped his son-in-law Gu Zhao in the main hall and said, “I will go to Shili Village tomorrow. Tell me what kind of stove you want to burn.”
”Dad, it’s snowing and the road is hard to walk on. There’s no rush. Why don’t we wait until the weather clears up?”
Li Da shook his head when he heard his son-in-law’s words, “The road is easier to walk on when it snows. It’s only a few days after the first snow, when the sun comes out and the snow melts, it will be muddy and impossible to walk on.”
”Really? I didn’t think of this.” Gu Zhao immediately flattered his father, “Dad has more life experience than I do. Wait a minute, I’ll go get some toilet paper.”
What kind of life experience does this have? Li Da thought so in his heart, but the wrinkles on his face relaxed.
Gu Zhao is OK.
Gu Zhao took the straw paper and explained it to his father by the oil lamp, and used his hands to indicate the size. Li Zhouzhou came in with a basin of hot water and gave it to his father first. After hearing what his husband said, he interrupted, “Dad, if it works, we can also get a clay pot.”
Li Da nodded and started to wash his face. After washing, he sat on a stool, took off his shoes and soaked his feet.
”What Zhou Zhou said is right. It’s best to match the size of the stove.” Gu Zhao drew a pot on paper.
He wanted to draw a stove with a pot. What was there to draw? The mason had been making things for decades, so he knew it at a glance. But he didn’t say anything and just watched Gu Zhao draw.
Seeing that his husband and father were getting along well, Li Zhouzhou looked happy and went out to the kitchen to get hot water so that he and his husband could wash up.
After everyone finished washing, they went back to their room to sleep.
