Chapter 22: Making Fish for the Prince
Pei Jinzhi found that his timid rabbit had been avoiding himself very obviously recently.
When it can, it doesn't appear, and even when it does, it always stands aside with his head down and doesn't speak. Pei Jinzhi asked her what was wrong, and the little rabbit shook his head and said sneeringly: It's not much~~~~
Looks like you don't understand what you're talking about.
The obscure admiration that always fell on him in the past was gone, and Pei Jinzhi felt a little unhappy about this.
Actually, Rong Xia didn't deliberately avoid him.
Although she has never been in love, she is not a doll in the core after all, and she understands four or five points for her many emotions that suddenly came up. And this understanding not only made Rong Xia feel sad, but also a sense of shame was faintly rising.
Pei Jinzhi is an incomparably good person, but she is an ordinary person, how can she like him? It's just a leper โกโก wants to eat swan meat.
Although he is a young master, he has never scolded himself, but he is very close to his behavior, and regards himself as a little sister, but he doesn't know how to repay him, but he has this dirty mind that he shouldn't have at all, Rong Xia feels very ashamed as long as he thinks about it.
So she made up her mind to restrain her mind and never let anyone notice.
Rong Xia - he didn't want to be looked down upon.
After about two months, Rong Xia felt that she had completely let go, and she could already face Pei Jinzhi's upcoming wife, she decided to make a pair of shoes for Pei Jinzhi as a wedding gift, she would use the best fabric, the best silk thread, and her most sincere blessings to make these shoes.
Rong Xia was so convinced.
On this day, the weather was clear and cloudless.
Rong Xia stood next to the pool wearing a brown stub and a hat on his head. This pond near Luzhuxuan is the one newly dug two months ago, about sixty or seventy square meters in size, in fact, there are several pools in this Hou Mansion, the largest of which is almost catching up with a viewing lake, which is full of lotus flowers and other things, and the scenery is extremely beautiful. Compared with it, this pond in Luzhuxuan is much smaller and much bare, and Rong Xia dug this pond with the intention of raising fish. It is the kind of fish that is used for eating, so instead of the ornamental koi in the pond, more than 80 grass carp, crucian carp, and other edible fish are put in. In addition, Rong Xia also cultivated a batch of loaches, screws and other things, these two things grow the fastest, after a large number of production, people can not only eat but also use to feed fish. Of course, the most important thing is the well-water. Rong Xia would come here every day and put two quarters of an hour of spiritual water in it.
"After a while, I will go down and clean up the aquatic weeds and the silt at the outlet, and the water chestnut in the pond is ripe and ready to be fished up. Rong Xia said to a middle-aged man.
This man's surname is Wang, and he is a rough servant in the house, and now the pond is left to him to take care of.
"Yes, Miss Xiaoxia, I remember it all!"
Rong Xia nodded, and when he wanted to say something again, a figure suddenly ran from a distance, shouting: "Xiao Xia! Xiao Xia!"
Rong Xia looked back: "Hey, why are you back?"
"Don't mention this yet, Xiao Xia, you quickly pack up and go with me. โ
Rong Xia was pulled from his sleeves, looked at him who was out of breath and panting, and asked very strangely, "What's wrong with Big Brother He?" Did the young master call you to call me?"
"Xiao Xia listens to Brother He, you go and change into clean clothes first, let's talk while walking on the road!"
So, Rong Xia was pushed back to the house to change clothes in such a daze.
"Quick, hurry up and get a few more fish out of this pond!" After getting Rong Xia, He An immediately turned his head to Wang Dahai, who was standing on the side, and said, "Take a wooden bucket and fill it with water, you want to live!" โ
Wang Dahai nodded hurriedly, and hurriedly fished for fish.
On the carriage, Rong Xia, who had already changed his clothes, understood what was going on.
She swallowed lightly and said very nervously: "In other words, we are going to enter the palace now?"
"Yes!" He An said: "Today, the young master went to the East Palace on an errand, and I don't know why I mentioned eating fish, so the young master asked me to take you into the palace." โ
This is not clear enough, but Rong Xia understands the purpose of her trip: Bacheng is still going to be a cook! Rong Xia has confidence in her cooking skills, and even more in the fish raised by the spirit well water, but-she twisted her body and quietly looked out of the lathe, this is the Shenwu Gate, it looks so majestic. For the native girls in the countryside who rarely even set foot in the provincial capital, the majestic imperial city is undoubtedly a term of majesty and magnificence, in short, Rong Xia was somewhat shocked.
"He, Brother He, I'm a little scared. Rong Xia nervously pulled down He An's cuffs, and said very timidly: "You send the fish in and let others do it, I, can I not go in!"
That's the Prince!
Rong Xia felt that his legs and feet were weak just by thinking about it now.
"Miss Xiaoxia, this is not good, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is waiting, if you don't go, you will, you will be killed!"
"Huh?" Rong Xia was startled.
He An continued: "And it will also affect the young master!"
Rong Xia took a deep breath and grabbed her skirt with her little hand, "I know, I'll take care of it." โ
The palace rules are set, all adult princes in this dynasty will go out of the palace and open another mansion, but the prince is the prince is different, the prince and his own wives and concubines live in the Minqing Palace on the southeast edge of the imperial city. Rong Xia got out of the carriage and cautiously followed behind He An, not even daring to make a sound.
There were already palace people waiting there, leading the two of them directly to the small kitchen of Minqing Palace.
Entering the kitchen, Rong Xia felt that he was much more relaxed, and immediately gathered his full energy and began to make fish. She groaned slightly, and in her heart she had a complete idea of what to do.
Half an hour later, the three dishes were completely ready.
The palace people who had been guarding next to him immediately came over and put the plate into the food box, and at the same time did not forget to look at Rong Xia fiercely, and everyone thought: This little girl looks fine and small, but she didn't expect that she is a master chef!
"Girl, please come with the slave maid, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to see you!"
Rong Xia nodded and followed behind the palace man.
"The slave has seen His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness Wan'an. Rong Xia knelt on the ground and saluted as He An had urgently trained in the carriage just now.
"You're Asha?" a man's voice sounded very gentle.
Rong Xia didn't dare to raise his head, only said, "Yes!"
"It looks like she's still a child!" The prince looked Rong Xia up and down, smiled and said to the person sitting on the side: "The admonition is so precious, this prince wants to see what she is capable of!"
The admonition is Pei Jinzhi's word.
It was given by the emperor.
Rong Xia stood up and took advantage of the palace maids' meal to take a cautious look around.
The first thing she saw was her young master sitting not far away.
Pei Jinzhi blinked at her slightly, and Rong Xia understood: That is to tell her not to be impatient again.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's unexpected curiosity turned into surprise when the food was served.
There are four dishes in total, one is fried fish with tomatoes, one is ginger shredded fish, and the other is boiled fish fillet with red and spicy water, and a Gu water ginseng soup (loach soup).
Judging from the round figure of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you can know that this is a person who likes food very much, and there are five full bowls of rice, and you can't even find a vegetable leaf on the table.
"For the first time in his life, this prince thinks that fish is such a delicious thing!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince patted his belly slightly indecently, and hiccuped irrepressibly.
Rong Xia, who had been standing next to him, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, great, the other party was finally satisfied.
"Miss Axia, your skills are really good, how about it, do you want to come to work on the prince's side?" His Royal Highness the Prince, who has eaten and drunk enough, is ready to start digging the foot of the wall~~~
