Chapter 50: Shredded Duck in Sauce
In the twenty-fifth year of Chenghua, on the second day of the second month of February, the dragon raised its head. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"It's a good day, I don't have to use a needle and thread. Yu Xiaoling wore a long jacket embroidered with white plums, and her body stood straight and heroic. She took a pancake, rolled it with shredded duck in sauce, and ate it.
February 2 is also the Dragon Festival, which is to pray to the Dragon King for a year of sufficient rain and abundant grains. For this, the pancakes eaten are called dragon scales, the noodles eaten are called dragon whiskers, and the daughter's family also has to stop needlework and thread, and the dragon eyes are dinosaurized.
Yu Xiaoling's qualifications with needlework and thread are mediocre, and she is naturally happy to be able to relax for a day.
"Girl, don't eat too much, I'll need it when I go to the main courtyard later!" Bingli persuaded her on the side.
"This pancake is strong and delicious. Yu Xiaoling ignored her and still ate happily.
She got up early to put on some food, and when her grandfather led them to worship their ancestors and worship the dragon lord, she wouldn't be hungry, would she?
Yu Xiaoling solved a spring cake in three and five clicks, and heard a voice outside the window urging: "Hurry up, hurry up, find the second sister!"
As soon as he heard that Yu Ting was coming, Yu Xiaoling was reconciled, and as soon as he entered the door by the snow, he greeted him: "Come quickly, I have something delicious here!"
Yu Ting scurried down from the snow and trotted to Yu Xiaoling: "Sister, what to eat?"
"Eat spring cakes. You can't go out and talk nonsense, or your grandfather will get angry. She instructed Yu Ting over and over again, while personally uncovering a pancake, tearing it open, and helping Yu Ting also roll the shredded duck in sauce.
Yu Ting's little face puffed up, and he shouted at the second sister's roll while eating, which made Yu Xiaoling laugh.
Bingli also smiled and shook her head, took tea and rinsed her mouth with the two of them, and the sister and brother cleaned up and followed Yu Qingyang and Cheng to the main courtyard.
After two years of renovation, Yu's family has doubled, and most of the credit for this goes to Qingsong.
Although he is only seven grades in the Hanlin Academy, he is fortunate to be hung by the emperor in his heart, and the emperor has summoned him three times in the past two years.
Although he is proud of the spring breeze and sees all the Chang'an flowers in one day, Yu Qingsong is quite modest and easy to make friends, and the civil and military officials have not said that he is not good.
He has infinite scenery, and the Yu family naturally went to the next level, so Yu Bingzu bought the two neighboring families, and renovated them, becoming the largest one in Muxiang Hutong.
Yu Xiaoling's original West Cross Courtyard where he lived with the Cheng family has long been changed to a small courtyard, and now the second room has changed to a courtyard on the east side according to the rules of the eldest and youngest, called Xifu Courtyard, which is a small suite. Yu Xiaoling lives in the small courtyard on the north side of Xifu Courtyard. As for the Jinglian Garden where Yu Qingsong and the others lived, the same situation was true.
As soon as Yu Xiaoling arrived at the main courtyard, he saw Cui's holding the three-year-old Yu Lin and whispering to Yu Xiaofei.
Yu Xiaofei has been much more normal in the past two years, and there is not much difference between him and a child of the same age, and he is not allowed to be idle when he goes to school like Yu Xiaoling every day.
However, she was silent a lot, although her temper was still a little bigger, but she never sent it to Xiao Ling, and even rarely talked to Xiao Ling, and the two of them had been classmates for two years, but there was no friction.
For this matter, Yu Xiaoling probably knew it in his heart.
She had heard such a sentence from Cui's or Yu Xiaofei's maid Yanzi more than once: "The girl didn't have a quarrel with the second girl, right?"
Yu Xiaofei's answer was an impatient "no".
Yu Xiaoling knew that Cui's was afraid that Yu Xiaofei would provoke herself and provoke the reincarnation of Nan Wudharani Buddha in Qingtan's mouth, so she always restrained her and didn't let her get along with her.
Xu is because of this, Cui's Liao family also respects her, and even with Cheng's family, she is no longer embarrassed, and the family lives very peacefully.
Yu Xiaoling was just out of breath, and a girl with a sweet smell on her body ran over and grabbed her hand.
"The second sister is here. Yu Xiaolu said sweetly.
Yu Bingzu sent a message and asked the children of the third room to study in Beijing. Therefore, this year, Yu Xiaoling's third uncle Yu Qinghuai sent a pair of children and his biological mother Aunt Huang to Beijing.
The third uncle's children are exactly the ones born after the dew and before the frost, so the big one is called "dew" and the small one is called "frost".
Yu Xiaoling felt that this name was very good, and it was precisely the day when these two children were born was very coincidental, just between these two festivals, if they were replaced by other solar terms, it would not be easy to coincide with their generation of "rain prefix".
Yu Xiaoling turned her head sideways to look at the third sister who was two years younger than herself, but not much shorter than her, and also smiled: "How long have you been here?"
"I just arrived, and after standing still, I looked back and saw my sister. ”
Yu Xiaolu said.
She was born quite thin, and her skin was slightly yellow, but her cheeks were rosy and her posture was generous. I don't know where Liao's eyes are unpleasant, and she said twice and three times that she looks like a wild girl in the countryside.
The first time he heard Liao say this, Yu Xiaoling was very surprised, but after thinking about it, he understood again. The third uncle didn't come out of Liao's belly, although he also called her "mother", but in the end, it was through the belly. Therefore, the children of the third uncle's family, the Liao family is naturally not to be seen.
However, when Xiao Ling thought that she, the third sister who had just come to the capital, was going to cry at Liao's cynicism, she actually felt the pity from Xiao Ling, raised her head, and reluctantly smiled at her.
She forced her smile to smile, although she couldn't see where she could go if she cried, but Yu Xiaoling was quite shocked, and from then on, she no longer looked down on this sister who was born in the house.
When everyone has come, they must first listen to Yu Bingzu's admonition to their children and grandchildren. This kind of indispensable process, Yu Xiaoling can probably recite what Bingzu wants to say. Therefore, she has a pancake in her stomach and a few shredded duck sauces, which looks leisurely and calm. So much so that after she went to worship the ancestor and the dragon lord, she was also calm.
However, Yu Xiaolu, who was standing beside her, purred in her stomach. Fortunately, the voice was not loud, and Yu Xiaoling and herself could hear it, otherwise, the Liao family would definitely say something unpleasant.
On the way back to the main house for dinner, Yu Xiaoling reminded her: "Although it is not appropriate to eat before worshipping, worship the ancestors, pay attention to pure heart and few desires." However, snoring with hunger is also disrespectful to the ancestors. Therefore, in order not to disturb the purity of the ancestors, it is also necessary to eat a little. This is your filial piety. ”
She said this very piously, and she also turned into a single breath, reasonable, unconventional, and heard Xiaolu nodding her head like a chicken pecking rice.
However, Yu Ji, who was one step ahead, burst out laughing, she glanced back at her extremely pious sister, and nodded her head: "The book is getting better and better, and it is a set of things to talk about." Aren't you afraid of taking the third sister badly?"
