Chapter 504
It was rainy and cloudy, but it was a sunny day on the day of the Halloween.
The fourth master was naturally happy, and even Li Wei was surprised that this was a coincidence or was it really something that the Son of Heaven said? Otherwise, why would God give face so much?
The birthday gifts sent were piled up in several warehouses, and there were naturally some public gifts, but they were all arranged in advance.
Like Li Wei, she gave a birthday gift to the fourth master on behalf of the Queen Mother.
The juniors were given birthday gifts by Hongyun Daitou. Because Hongyu hasn't come back yet.
I thought I would be able to come back in time, but just like the fourth master told her before, Horqin was not so easy to let Princess Chunxi go. Of course, what they meant was that even if Bandi Taiji died, they would treat Princess Chunxi as an ancestor, and each clan had provided a lot of slaves and pastures, and agreed to give tribute to the princess every year, so that she could live in the clan with peace of mind.
Princess Chunxi is bent on returning to Beijing. Hongyu and Seventeen also had the idea of bringing the princess back to Beijing in the past, and both sides were arguing over this.
Hongyi's excerpt writes the ins and outs of the matter very clearly, and the descendants of Bandi are now thinking that Princess Chunxi can return to Beijing, but it would be good if she could marry another princess.
The fourth master didn't plan to agree, but he could coax them first. He had already issued an order for Hongyu and Seventeen to invite several Taiji of the Korqin Borzichite clan to the capital, and the princess would of course return to the capital with him. When they come back, they will be rewarded with some gold and silver, or a or two false titles, and then they will be sent back.
Although Hongyun did not come back, Hongyun said that he was the second brother when he came out to give a gift.
After he came down, Li Wei learned that Honghui had also entrusted him with gifts.
Regarding whether Honghui will come this year, Siye Dao doesn't have to let him come on the first day, and he will come back the next day. Three days of longevity, the first day is the highlight. The first day of the appearance on the second day was all on the scene, and there were not many people Honghui who came to see it again.
Duan Jing and the others did not return to Beijing before the Wanshou Festival. The princesses of Fumeng all knew about Princess Chunxi, and they all ran to give Princess Chunxi a strong voice.
A princess is inconspicuous, what about seven or eight princesses from Kangxi to Yongzheng Dynasty together? Who dares to underestimate them?
The matter of Princess Chunxi is to give them hope. Let them know that as long as they can survive, they can return to Beijing one day, and even Princess Rongxian ran away in person at such an age, just so that one day, she may also return to her homeland.
In the evening, Li Wei walked into the house with a bowl of shou noodles.
The fourth master sat on the couch, holding a book in his hand, and reciting words in his mouth. He also had to make a speech on Hallowe, and after writing it in advance, he had to memorize it. So he's endorsing.
Smelling the aroma of beef and clear soup noodles, the fourth master raised his head and smiled: "This is what you made yourself?" ”
Li Wei can cook, but only by pointing fingers. She didn't even burn the stove in Li's house, but she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to draft if she had a scar on her hand. So she doesn't use a knife, she only kneads dough.
"Come and try it, I've been practicing for more than two months, and it's not easy to pull it so fine!" Shou noodles can't be broken, otherwise it will be unlucky, but the thinner the noodles, the better, and taking care of both is nothing to the chef, but it is a problem for her.
I have to celebrate my birthday every year, and there are only a few tricks. It's not the first time she's done Shou Noodles, but every time she does it, she feels that her craftsmanship is not successful, and she is embarrassed to show him. He has never disliked it, and the first time he ate the noodles she made, he said that he couldn't see it in the soup anyway, and it tasted good.
This time the noodles took a lot of effort from the pastry chef in the imperial dining room, and the dough was made for her, and she only needed to pull the noodles into shape at the end, including the bottom of the back, and the soup.
The dough should be firm, it should be able to withstand pulling and not be easy to break, and it should taste good. All kinds of demands are hard for the dead.
But the results are also quite gratifying. At least this is the first time Li Wei has pulled out a nest of silk with her own hands.
A nest of silk, describing this noodle as thin as silk.
The fourth master has long known that his Weiwei has been drilling in the kitchen these days, and that day he raised his hand and said that he kneaded the dough every day as if his hands had turned white, and he showed him it, he held it and looked at it, fragrant it, and praised: "Not only white, but also smoother." ”
At this time, I was also surprised when I looked at the noodles in the bowl, Weiwei would not use other people's craftsmanship to ridicule him, so this noodles were really made by her.
I'm afraid that the noodles will be mushy after a long time, and then I will live up to Weiwei's wishes.
The fourth master didn't care about saying more, put down the book and ate this bowl of noodles, the soup was good, it was very fresh.
When he finished eating, he said, "Good noodles." It's hard work Vivi. Regardless of anything else, this intention alone made his heart sour. The longer you sit in this seat, the more you will understand what it means to be alone. Especially on days like the Wanshou Festival, every day my ears are filled with sycophants, and all I see are servile and humble people, how many of them are sincere?
Li Wei saw that there seemed to be tears flashing in the eyes of the fourth master, and they were gone in a blink of an eye. Seeing that he was going to pick up the fold after eating the noodles, she said, "Just after eating, get up and scatter first, don't sit here, don't you think your belly is big?" Sitting after eating is the easiest way to nourish your stomach. ”
The fourth master couldn't help her, so she pulled her up and turned around in the hall, and the bowling movement at night was too big, so she simply played the ring. It is to take the bamboo trap things, call the eunuchs in the palace to play together, and the ground is full of good things, and the wealth is touching for a while, and the set belongs to themselves, and there are really many people who refuse to release the water, and they have a lot of fun with the fourth master.
A few days later, Li Wei, who had new skills, fell in love with making noodles. Hongyu took Princess Chunxi back to Beijing and also ate noodles made by Eniang. Get on the horse dumplings and get off the horse noodles, keep safe.
Princess Chunxi lived in Changchun Garden, and Duan Jing and the others who came back together also lived in Changchun Garden for the time being. The queen mother's temperament is really different now, and she even said that she would not let the princesses go back to the princess's mansion, and they all lived in the garden to accompany her.
Even to Princess Chunxi, she said: "Your princess's mansion has been repaired, but I think you live there alone, and there are few descendants of Prince Gong's mansion who are familiar with you, so it's better to live with me." ”
Princess Chunxi naturally agreed. She went to live in the princess's mansion, unless the emperor and the queen mother remembered her, otherwise she would get a few rewards a year. What's more, she really doesn't have much friendship with Prince Gong's Mansion. I finally returned to Beijing, what's the fun of living alone in the princess's mansion? How long will she live? I don't want to live alone in an empty princess's mansion.
Duan Jing and the others couldn't hide their envy.
Li Wei came to visit Princess Chunxi and made a bowl of noodles for the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother didn't react when she ate, and said with a smile after eating: "I've heard the fourth child say a long time ago, you now have more skills, and you make noodles for people to eat every day, and I finally eat it now." ”
The Queen Mother no longer hides her words now, and she dares to say jokes. Li Wei also made a childish posture and said: "I let them try it first, and they all said that I would dare to make it for the emperor's mother." ”
At this time, Duan Jing realized that the small bowl of noodles they ate just now was actually made by the imperial concubine herself.
Princess Chunxi smiled: "This is all the filial piety of the mother. ”
Li Wei smiled: "It's still my sister who feels sorry for me." ”
Princess Chunxi is seven years older than the fourth master, but she looks more than seven years older.
Changchun Garden has a few princesses, but it is much more lively. are all delicate guests who returned to their parents' homes, and Li Wei rewarded a lot of generous rewards during the New Year. Although Princess Chunxi is old, she is very funny and loves the little things that little girls like. There were only two or three of the palace maids who married with her back then, and now they have brought a lot of Mongolian female slaves to wait.
Princess Chunxi is also very interesting, as soon as she came back, she sent most of the Mongolian slave girls back to her princess's mansion, saying that she would look after the house for her.
Li Wei made up some little palace maids for her.
The little palace maids are young and lively, and Princess Chunxi does not restrain them, all of them are innocent. One day, Li Wei even saw Princess Chunxi dyed henna like a little palace maid. The color looks like the rough stuff used by the palace maids, and the color is not clear enough.
When I asked, it turned out that Princess Chunxi saw her little palace maid dyeing and playing there, and when she was curious, she coaxed them to dye her too.
Of course, when I turned around, I was taught a lesson by the grandmother who was waiting for the princess, and it was Princess Chunxi who begged for mercy.
One day later, Li Wei saw that Princess Chunxi had a rather childish handkerchief with needlework in her hand, and when she asked, it was also embroidered by the little palace maid beside her. A pair of butterflies, she watched the little palace maid embroider it, and thought it was funny, so she took her handkerchief and exchanged it with the little palace maid.
Li Wei learned them one by one to the fourth master, and said with a smile: "I see that when the princess comes back, everyone seems to be more than ten years younger." "If she wasn't happy, how could she have these thoughts?
It is said that she enjoys life, and Princess Chunxi definitely didn't have the heart to enjoy it when she was in Horqin. When I came back, I was in a cheerful mood, like a dead tree sprouting in spring, so everything I watched was interesting and good.
The fourth master said: "In the twenty-ninth year of Kangxi, the eldest sister got married. But when she was eight years old, we didn't see her. ”
If the emperor's biological princess is not sure whether to caress or not, then the day the adopted daughter princess enters the palace is doomed to their fate.
Seeing Princess Chunxi, the fourth master did not regret leaving his three daughters in the capital at all. Even if he was resented because of this, he didn't dare to imagine that his daughter would have the same experience as Princess Chunxi.
The youth and childlike innocence that were suppressed in the early years finally poked their heads out when they no longer had to worry about any misfortunes in the future after returning to Beijing.
Li Wei calmed down and thought about it, and also felt that Princess Chunxi's life was really unfortunate. When she was a child in Prince Gong's mansion, she was only from Shu Fujin, and Shu Fujin was the same as a concubine and a gege. It can be seen that he is not a favored person. That's why he was sent to the palace to be raised.
But maybe because of this, Princess Chunxi will always be strong enough. Because she knows that there is no praise in her life, her parents, relatives, and even the country. All she could rely on was herself.
How many princesses are there? Li Wei thinks that Princess Chunxi can survive, in addition to the strength and optimism in her nature, that is, she never overestimates her weight in the eyes of others. It is said that there is no harm if there is no expectation. But she doesn't let that make her feel presumptuous.
Li Wei likes Princess Chunxi a little.
But the two really don't have much to do with each other. And she thinks that she is similar to Princess Chunxi, and it is estimated that it will make people laugh when she says it.
The fourth master heard her go back and forth a few times and Princess Chunxi began to be strange, but she only revealed a little bit of sympathy for Princess Chunxi, and he had a hurt expression on his face: "When did I let you be wronged?" ”
Princess Chunxi's father doesn't love her mother, and I don't know how many concubines there are, but Princess Chunxi will definitely not be the most favored one.
Li Wei hurriedly coaxed him with all kinds of gentleness, and only after coaxing back did she say how she was favored by him when she entered the elder brother's office, "I felt at that time, Fourth Master, if you like me, I will repay you well." ”
"I didn't expect you to like me." ”
The fourth master's face is still serious, but in his heart he is turning over the memories of the year, that ...... He thought Weiwei was good back then, but he only thought she was the most endearing among the three people of Fujin, Song and her.
When did you like her? It seems that when I found out, I was already deeply rooted.
I don't know where it started, and I went deep.
"What did you like about me back then?" Li Wei is really curious about this and wants to know. This is something she couldn't even think of back then.
Is she pretty? But there were many beauties in the draft at that time. Of course, those may all enter the harem, or be divided by other elder brothers. I haven't seen him since.
That is, her mind is particularly beautiful?
This doesn't seem likely.
The fourth master cleared his throat and said the truth rarely: "I don't remember." ”
Why did you think she was lovely at the time? I remember that she was small in her arms, always smiling, and she could see from her face that she was thinking a little, and she loved to play with her heart, but it was too simple for people to bear to tear her down.
He saw Weiwei sneering at him with a sweet face: "Liar! Then he threw himself into his arms.
He hugged her, knowing she had misunderstood.
He couldn't help but laugh and patted the man in his arms. If you misunderstand your heart, you will misunderstand.
In fact, it can't be counted as a misunderstanding.
Otherwise, he can't remember the Song family now, Fujin. But he could remember that in such a small room behind his brother, it was dim and cramped, but her smiling face seemed to shine in his memories.
