84. Wrapping zongzi

took an ancient geography class for one night, and taught the fourth master, so that Li Wei was still like a dream until the next day.

The fourth master of the globe circled around it, cherished it very much, and told her to place it carefully, scrub and take care of it.

He sighed, "Since you like it, it's not a pity for you to have this thing here." ”

Only then did she know that this was the fourth master's beloved thing. Su Peisheng, why don't you say it? You said I wouldn't pick it at all!

"Why don't you move this globe back to the study? There are a lot of people coming and going here, and there is also the third elder brother, if you bump into something, it will be broken. She said.

The fourth master shook his head and said, "Things are just to be put out for people to see." When I move it back, I put it in the warehouse, and I rarely use it. It's okay to put it here, you and the children have nothing to do, and it's not in vain that you made it out in the first place. As he spoke, he gently flicked the globe with his hand.

After September, the weather began to cool down.

Fujin asked people to open the warehouse and take out the skins to prepare for winter clothes. The three grids in the house were handed over to the people below to do, which was nothing more than a cloak, two cotton robes, two shoulders, and a pair of cotton boots.

"Send these to Fang Fujin, and the skilled embroidery girl will send four to wait." Fu Jin Road.

After she finished speaking, Mama Zhuang asked someone to lift the four boxes under her and send them to the East Courtyard. The remaining four boxes, Fu Jin first picked out for the fourth master to prepare, then her, and then Honghui and the two Gege.

Fu Jin picked out two red fox skins without a single miscellaneous hair, and said, "Da Gege and Sangege have just arrived, and they will come out of my example, take these two skins and make a shoulder for each of them." ”

Mama Zhuang said: "Ergege is not negligent there. ”

Fu Jin nodded and said, "The three Gege should be worn the same, and they will look good when they enter the palace." ”

Mama Zhuang picked out another fox skin and put it together.

In the east courtyard, Li Wei thought it was time to make winter clothes. As soon as the skins were delivered, the jade bottle took people to pick up all the skins.

"Let's see if there's any rabbit skin, and use it for edging." Li Wei said.

The jade bottle came in with a pile of snow-white rabbit furs and asked, "Master, do you see that these are suitable?" ”

Li Wei sat around the third elder brother's neck casually, the snow-white fluff lined the third elder brother's little face round and cute, she couldn't help but go up and kiss several times.

The third elder brother touched the rabbit fur and shouted, "Baifu." ”

Momofuku was originally lying on his feet, but when he heard it, he ran over and jumped on the couch and lay next to the third elder brother. The third elder brother touched it and put the rabbit skin under its nose, and Momofuku went up to sniff it, turned his head and sneezed.

"It's in Momofuku's nose." Li Wei took the rabbit skin aside and let the third elder brother and Baifu play on the couch.

Although Momofuku is old, he is still very lively, and he is also very old when he plays with the third elder brother. The third elder brother played with the blocks, and Momofuku helped him arch the pieces of wood to his hand. The third elder brother piled higher and higher, and even Li Wei didn't dare to move for fear of disturbing him, Baifu went up and arched, and it all collapsed.

Li Wei and Yu Bottle were nervous, afraid that the third elder brother would be angry.

Third Elder Brother: "Hahahahaha! ”

This kid has such a wide heart.

Seeing this, Li Wei was relieved to do her own thing. Send four boxes of skins, and the fourth master, Hongyu, Ergege and the third elder brother must set aside enough to last until the year.

Because at this time, there is a very modern default rule: from the gold festival to the New Year, the dress should be different every day when entering the palace.

Thinking about it, it would seem a little embarrassing if the fourth master wore the same cloak when he entered the palace from the first day to the day after. After all, it is the New Year's banquet, imagine that the Oscars will be held for 20 days in a row, and a certain actor will have a dress from beginning to end, and the media will definitely guess whether he is bankrupt and has no money.

In the same way, Li Wei and several children are all the same.

Although she basically doesn't have to worry about the clothes of the fourth master, whether it is sitting on the side of Fujin, or whether she is in the position of sitting on the side of Fujin, or her true love for the fourth master now, she deliberately left him a good skin.

The rest are Ergege, Hongyu and the third elder brother, and so on.

The second Gege and the third elder brother were all called by her to compare the skin to see if the skin color is matched, and when Hongyu came over in the afternoon, she also stopped her, so that Hongyu, who originally wanted to go directly to play with her sister and brother, had to turn to her side.

Ergege took the third elder brother to the edge of the screen on the east side and squeezed his eyebrows at Hongyu, which made Hongyu a little nervous, and his pace became slower and slower.

Li Wei had to call him: "Come here, I'll let you go and play with them when I'm done." Hongyu just ran over, and after trying on five or six skins for him, she slapped his ass: "Go play, stinky boy." ”

Hongyu Cai Hee Haha ran towards the east side.

On the east side is the third elder brother's room, and there is a screen when you enter the house, which blocks the wind blowing in at the door. The side rooms are both inside and outside, and the second Gege and the third elder brother are coiled on the couch in the outer room. Seeing Hongyu coming in, the two beckoned him together.

Hongyu sat on the edge of the couch and took off his boots, and Ergege pushed the snack plate towards him, saying, "Are you hungry?" Eat some mats first. Freshly steamed glutinous rice balls, delicious. ”

The five kernel buns were still hot, and Hongyu took a bite of them, and the filling flowed out. This is Li Wei eating the Lantern Festival, all of them are the size of a fist, the outer skin is glutinous rice, and the inside is filled with fried peanuts, sesame walnuts, pine nuts, and lard and sugar. After steaming, roll a layer of glutinous rice flour to avoid sticking to the plate.

Hongyu ate down the corners of his mouth, and the second Gege and the third elder brother encouraged him: "Lick!" Lick! ”

Hearing their laughter in the east room, Li Wei said to the jade bottle, "What are they playing?" It's hilarious. While tying the leather on his hand with a stick, he turned around and sent it to the embroiderer.

The jade bottle brought Li Wei to his side with the skin in front of him, and said, "The master went into the house and looked at the little masters, I have these jobs." ”

Li Wei went to the east room, and as soon as she arrived at the door, she heard the third elder brother ask Hongyu: "Second brother, when can I move in with you?" ”

Hongyu said: "Next year, I see that Ama has already cleaned up the yard for you." ”

Ergege envied and said: "I also lived in front of me when I was a child, but it was fun, and I could ride a horse and shoot arrows every day." I can't move back now. ”

Li Wei saw that a group of children were playing well, and she didn't want to disturb them, in the eyes of the children, the adults were probably another shijie person, and they couldn't play together. Not even if she's their mother.

She had no choice but to turn back and continue to divide the skin, and the jade bottle said strangely: "Why doesn't the master go to accompany the little master?" ”

She shook her head and said, "Two of you a little, and you're done ready for dinner." ”

However, I was really a little lonely in my heart. The third elder brother is also growing up, and he is not as clingy to her as he was when he was a child. He longs to play with his brother Hongyu.

This is the realistic version of only a lover who will accompany you for the rest of your life?

Li Wei really misses the fourth master a little.

When it was time to go to the dining room to order food, Li Wei said a few more things that the fourth master likes to eat.

"Last time, the osmanthus lotus root was served again." The fourth master loves sweets, and it is estimated that these people don't know. Last time, he ate half a plate of osmanthus lotus root.

The jade bottle asked: "Master, do we want to make our own zongzi and serve it on a plate?" ”

"It's too ugly, don't. We'll eat it ourselves tomorrow. Li Wei waved her hand.

When the fourth master came back, she looked at the clock several times. The children went to the garden to play with the spinning top, Hongyu was taught by the prince after the last time he entered the palace, and it was important to see Honghui and they play with the spinning top, and their interest in this suddenly increased.

Ergege went back and flipped through the boxes of things that the prince rewarded her with, and there was a small spinning top in it. It's just too small, she definitely can't use it, so she will transfer it to the third elder brother.

So the third elder brother also began to be fascinated by this.

She could hear the whip in the garden as she sat in the room, and it was very crisp.

As soon as the fourth master arrived at the gate of the mansion and threw the reins to the porter, he heard the faint sound of whips in the mansion and asked Su Peisheng: "Who plays with spinning tops in the mansion?" ”

Su Peisheng said: "Ergege, Brother Hongyu and Brother Sange are playing in the garden." ”

The fourth master didn't go back to the study, he went directly to the garden, and saw that a few children were having fun and looked at it for a while. Baifu saw the fourth master first and ran over to circle around him. The fourth master squatted down and stretched out his hand to lick it, and then Ergege saw it and shouted: "Amma!" ”

The three children all ran over, and the fourth master saw that they were sweating when they were playing, and said, "It's getting dark, go back and wash your face and change your clothes, it's time to eat, and play tomorrow." ”

In the east courtyard, Li Wei saw the fourth master coming back with a few children, and greeted him and said, "Ran into it?" He casually touched the door of the third elder brother's head, and when he saw that it was all sweat, he hurriedly called out to the jade bottle: "Take them down to change their clothes." "If you sweat and blow the wind, you will catch a cold, and the third elder brother is still so young.

Back to the house, Li Wei took his clothes to change for him, unbuttoned them, undressed, and when he wanted to change his boots, he waved his hand to let her retreat, sat down and knelt down from the jade bottle to take off his boots for him.

Li Wei stood behind him to untie his braids, and the jade bottle brought hot water to soak his feet.

The fourth master leaned on the pillow, relaxed and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Tired?" Li Wei asked in a soft voice.

The fourth master shook his head slowly, took her hand and closed his eyes to recuperate. Li Wei had no choice but to give the comb to Yuchao and sit beside him to accompany him.

After soaking for two quarters of an hour, the fourth master was sweating profusely, and after drinking a bowl of tea, he got up and changed his clothes again, and his spirit became better at this time. Li Wei saw that he was really tired today, so he asked the children to eat between the east side, and the two of them on the west side, saving him any more trouble.

After he finished eating the osmanthus lotus root for dinner, he was about to put down the chopsticks, and he said to her: "Didn't you wrap the zongzi with the child yesterday?" Bring it to me and taste it. ”

When Li Wei saw him mention it, she asked the jade bottle to go and get a few. After a while, the hot rice dumplings were served, accompanied by a plate of sugar and a plate of honey.

The fourth master smiled when he saw it, the zongzi sent up was peeled, no matter how skillful the people in the dining room were, the zongzi that were originally wrapped in a mess could not be peeled, not to mention that they were not tied tightly? So it's not so much zongzi as sticky rice.

He picked up a plate, took his chopsticks and looked at it, and said strangely: "Why are there dates, raisins and peanuts in this filling?" ”

Li Wei knew it as soon as she heard it, and said: "This is Hongyu Bao, and the filling is put by the third elder brother." He loves to put all the stuffing all over again. ”

The fourth master smiled, sprinkled white sugar and ate two bites, put it down and said, "This taste is also quite special." ”

I ate a lot of osmanthus lotus just now, and there was glutinous rice in it, so he just tasted it. Li Wei thought it was a pity to take it down like this and throw it away, so she had to take it and eat it, but who knew that he instructed: "Keep it, I'll eat it tomorrow morning." ”

She and a few children made zongzi, but she didn't expect the fourth master to finish eating quietly. Li Wei asked about it and found out that the fourth master asked someone to send him two at lunch every day. There weren't many bags in total, and when they remembered to try it again, Li Wei had no choice but to spread her hands and say, "It's gone, you Ama like it very much, and you all ask him to eat it." ”

Ergege listened, and discussed with Li Wei to call Da Gege and Sangege to pack a few more for the fourth master.

"This is also our filial piety as a daughter." She said, "The two younger brothers are boys, so I won't take them with me this time." ”

Li Wei said: "That's good, you go to Da Gege first and say, let her mention it to Fujin." You give in a little way. ”

If you are small, you will inevitably look ignorant. Ergege was originally more liked by the fourth master than Da Gege, although in the heart of the fourth master, several daughters are generally the same, but the common face is a little more affectionate.

Ergege pursed his lips and smiled, "Eniang, I understand." ”

In the main courtyard, since Da Gege and Sangege moved over together, the Song family moved farther away, and the two children were a little frightened. Fu Jin treated them as always, and slowly they relaxed.

Sangege is younger, and she has lived in Fujin Courtyard since she was a child, and compared to Da Gege, she is not impressed by the Song family. It's just that her body is too weak, and the nurses and grandmothers are stricter, and they often scare her with words, lest she run around and blow the wind and catch a cold, and cause trouble for them.

Fujin went through Da Gege's affairs, and when he was in Sangege, he naturally asked a lot of questions, and often asked her to eat together.

Da Gege is a little older, and the people around her disappeared inexplicably, and her biological mother Song moved to another yard, she wanted to go and see, but the people around her stopped her. As long as you are not a fool, you will know that something is wrong. But she couldn't ask Fujin, and the people around her were all here, so she didn't talk about it, and when she asked this, she said: "Gege just keep it at ease, don't ask more about idle things." ”

In addition, she changed all her shoes. Fujin also gave her a grandmother and soaked her feet every day. At first, she was not used to it, Mama pressed it a little painfully, she didn't dare to hide, just shed tears, Mama explained to her: "Gege is still small, the bones are soft, and she can get it back." You can't wear small shoes anymore, that will hurt your feet. ”

Da Gege was puzzled, and Mama saw that she was bored with everything, so she had to tell Fujin.

Fu Jin called her here.

Da Gege timidly came in and bowed down. She was wearing slightly larger shoes near her feet, and Mama pressed her feet again, but her feet were a little unaccustomed, and her body shook when she bowed.

Fu Jin sighed secretly and beckoned: "Yierha, come here." ”

Da Gege sat down at her bottom, smiled and shouted, "Eniang." Although the jade disc has not changed, but the fourth master spoke, and she and Sangege have changed their words.

Fu Jin retreated from everyone, held her hand and hesitated for a long time before saying: "This matter, in fact, Eniang didn't take a good look at it, so it hurt you." ”

Before the words fell, Da Gege burst into tears, and she shouted in a trembling voice: "Eniang......" She didn't dare to listen to it anymore, and always felt that she couldn't accept Fujin's words.

Fu Jin told her grandmother to take matters into her own hands, and just skipped Song lightly, and then said: "Thank God, you Ama found out about this group of Diao slaves early on, you are still young, change to the right shoes, you can recover." ”

Da Gege understands that she understands, but for a long time, when the nurse put on her small shoes, she spoke heartily, and couldn't help asking: "But Eniang, the nurse said that it is like this outside...... she whispered shyly, "Girl...... Small feet are good-looking......"

She also felt that when she put on her shoes, she was small and delicate.

Fujin Zhengse said: "Yierha, no matter what others are like, you don't have to force yourself to go along with others. ”

Da Gege was puzzled, she didn't feel reluctant.

Seeing this, Fu Jin called a girl in, asked her to take off her shoes and socks and show her feet to Da Gege, and then let her put them on and go out.

"See? That's how you are born. Your script should be the same as everyone else. Yilha, you are your Ama and my child, and we all hope that you will be good from beginning to end, and that you will be happy all your life. Fu Jin sighed, "Whether it's this time or in the future, you have to protect yourself." ”

Da Gege went back in a daze, she understood a little, but she didn't understand how much. Could it be that both the nurse and the biological mother hurt her?

She told everyone in the house to go out, took off her socks and looked at her feet, the ten little toes were already spreading a little. She remembered sleeping with Ergege that night, and after washing her feet, her feet were bigger than hers, her feet were flat, and her toes were extended.

Thinking of this, she suddenly put on her socks and tightly wrapped a pair of feet with a brocade quilt on the couch so that no gaps were exposed.

Outside, her personal girl called her: "Gege? Two grids come to you to play. ”

Da Gege was shocked to find that her face was full of tears, wiped several handfuls indiscriminately, and raised his voice: "My side...... There is still something to do, please go to the third sister first, I'll go over in a while! ”

When Ergege heard it outside the door, he said to the big Gege girl: "You stay here and wait for the big sister." She thought that it might be convenient for Da Gege, so she couldn't come out right away.

The big Gege girl smiled and sent Er Gege away and hurried back, worried to stand at the door and asked, "Gege, the slave maid will go in and wait for you?" Are you alright? As he spoke, he pushed the door open, "The slave and maid came in." ”

She tentatively pushed the door in, and saw that the brocade quilt on the couch was messy, and Da Gege was sitting in front of the dresser. She walked over and saw that there were tears on Da Gege's face, and she didn't reveal it, and said, "Gege's face should be powdered, the slave waits for you to wash your face, and then re-powder, right?" ”

Da Gege was afraid that the girl would find out, thinking that she didn't know, so he nodded indiscriminately.

After washing his face and purifying his face again, Da Gege couldn't tell that he had cried at all. The girl waited for her to change her clothes again, and said, "Don't panic, there are slaves and maids in everything." Wouldn't that be nice now? Two and three squares are waiting for you. ”

Da Gege also calmed down and said with a smile: "I'll go now." ”

In the three-grid house, she was pestering the two-grid and asked, "Good sister, just tell me, right?" What's good? ”

Da Gege happened to come in and said, "What are you two doing?" ”

When Ergege saw that everyone had arrived, he said that he would personally hold the zongzi for the fourth master, "It should be regarded as our filial piety to Amma." ”

Da Gege clapped his hands and said, "Isn't it? Let's do it. ”

Ergege said: "Big sister, let's go talk to Fujin first, don't mention me, just say it's your idea." ”

Da Gege stood up and was about to leave when he heard the words, and thought about it and said, "They are all sisters, why bother to divide you and me?" Let's just say that the three of us came up with this idea together. ”

The second and third grids glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Listen to the big sister." ”

reported to Fujin, and Fujin naturally praised it. Let people prepare all the things for them, and specially vacate a flower hall to come out.

The big grid is wrapped up and good, and he can also find time to guide the three grids, and the second grid is familiar, that is, the package is similar to the three grids. After wrapping up a count, it is a big grid and a little.

Ergege said: "The eldest sister has it, why is it less?" ”

Da Gege said: "It's not strange, I didn't pack well, I dismantled all the heavy bags." ”

The three rows of zongzi on the table are indeed large grids, all of which are of the same size and perfect shape.

When Sangege saw it, he had to unpack himself, and Ergege persuaded her: "With me, we are the same." Cook it and give it to Amma, so that he can't tell who it is. What are you afraid of having me with you? ”

Although the Sangege people are small, their ambitions are high, and they said, "How can you have the face to give to Ama like this?" ”

She had to open the heavy bag, and Er Gege saw that she was left with only one bag of crooked melons and inferior dates, so she had to sit down and repack it together. Da Gege sat down with them.

After wrapping up, it was dark, and Fu Jin directly left Ergege to finish the meal and then go back to the East Courtyard.

In the east courtyard, the fourth master came back and didn't see Ergege, and asked strangely: "Where did she go?" ”

Li Wei wanted to surprise the fourth master, the daughters were filial, and said, "Secret, don't tell you." ”

The fourth master saw that it was okay to see this, so he didn't continue to ask. When the dining table was removed, the jade bottle came in and reported, "Ergege is back." ”

Li Wei hurried to greet her, Ergege was so tired that her arms were sore, and her neck was a little painful for too long, and she cried out when she saw her: "Eniang, I'm so tired." ”

"How many are you? This thing can't be left for long, and you're too sincere. Li Wei didn't ask her to see the fourth master again, and went back to the house to rest.

After she returned to the house, the fourth master was waiting for Ergege to come in, and when he saw that she was the only one, he asked, "What about the Erkh people?" ”

At this time, it is not appropriate to keep it secret, Li Wei smiled: "The three of them want to make a few zongzi for you, and they are a little tired when they just come back, so I won't let her come over." ”

The fourth master was very helpful when he heard this, but he said, "How can they do this kind of thing?" Just tell the dining room. ”

Early the next morning, I couldn't wait to let the dining room cook the zongzi made by Ergege and others yesterday, and even ate several, and asked Su Peisheng to put them in the lunch box.

The fourth master said: "Don't forget." ”

Su Peisheng smiled like a flower and said: "The slave just forgets anything, and he doesn't dare to forget the master's orders." ”

In the east courtyard, Er Gege complained to Li Wei: "It's not fun at all to make zongzi." If the bag is not good, I have to re-pack, and I can't come back first. ”

Li Wei felt distressed and gave her the medicine, and several places were scratched by the dumpling leaves, and said: "You are stupid, just say that I will wait for you here?" "Besides, Da Gege and Sangege are the flesh and blood of the fourth master, and in her eyes, she looks like Ergege's classmates and neighbor's children. It is impossible for her to treat it as if she has come out, and when she sees that Ergege is affected and suffered, she regrets it for a long time.

What kind of rice dumplings to wrap? I knew it earlier, let her East Courtyard bag! Don't play any more sisterhood!

Ergege cried with a sad face: "I forgot! ”

The author has something to say: see you tomorrow
