Fu Shaoyun walked up to Su Xi, leaned over, pinched her pink face, and asked, "Why did you lose weight?" ”

Fu Shaoyun is sixteen this year, she was born with a dignified appearance and a slender posture, and when she stood in front of Su Xi, she blocked all her sight. Su Xi leaned back with her cheeks covered, her round apricot eyes stared at him, her face was not a steamed bun, how could she pinch her face as soon as they met?

The little girl's eyes were moist and bright, like the clearest water in the mountain stream in the early morning. In the blink of an eyelash, a butterfly roosted. Fu Shaoyun looked at Su Xi's dissatisfied look, and smiled in a low voice: "The little girl is still round and mellow to look good." ”

Fu Shaoyun took out an oiled paper bag from the placket and opened it, and there were a few complete rose cakes lying inside. He held Su Xi's little hand and put the rose cake in Su Xi's palm, "I happened to pass by Yuhe Building when I went out today, and I bought your favorite dim sum." Come, taste. ”

Royal Wo Lou is famous for its pastries, among which rose cake, pine nut lily cake and jujube paste cake are very popular. Su Xi likes rose cake, because it tastes sweet with petals, soft and crispy. If Fu Shaoyun had brought her this half a month ago, she would have been very happy, but now Su Xi is very embarrassed, looking at the attractive rose cake in her hand, she doesn't know what to do.

If she had eaten, wouldn't all these days have been in vain?

Fu Shaoyun didn't see Su Xi's entanglement, his eyes turned, and he fell on the little radish head behind him. Stunned, he crooked his mouth and smiled: "Little guy, what are you staring at me for?" ”

Su Baiyu's hand holding the rope was clenched into a small fist, and he must have been so angry that he held back a sentence for a long time: "...... Compensate me sparrows. ”

Fu Shaoyun didn't know why, but after Su Xi explained, he suddenly realized and smiled loudly: "It's not just a sparrow, I'll catch it for you, you can have as much as you want." ”

Saying that, he really asked Tingyan to prepare the millet again and catch the sparrows with Su Xi and Su Baiyu.

Su Li stood under the pillars, looked at the three people in the courtyard who were in high spirits, and smiled silently.

After returning home yesterday, he was very surprised to hear Mama Cui say that the young girl brought Bai Ge'er to the flower open-air incense. Bai Ge'er is reluctant to be close to people, Su Li knows better than anyone else, except for himself and Mama Cui, he hardly talks to people. Originally, Su Li was worried that the young child would not be able to take care of her, after all, she was also a child herself, but now that she looked at it like this, he was too worried, and it was not a good thing for Bai Ge'er to have more contact with the young child. Look, aren't they having a good time now?

Su Xi fed the last piece of rose cake into Su Baiyu's mouth, and said reluctantly: "Children, eat more to grow faster." The men of our Su family are all seven feet tall and magnificent, and Bai Ge'er can't hold back. ”

Su Baiyu's cheeks were bulging, and when he heard Su Xi's words, he chewed and swallowed silently.

On the side, Fu Shaoyun watched all the snacks he bought into Su Baiyu's stomach, and raised two fingers to gently flick Su Xi's head, and said, "Don't you like to eat Yuhelou's rose cake the most, why don't you eat a bite today?" ”

Su Xi naturally couldn't say that she was on a diet, otherwise Fu Shaoyun would definitely ask her the reason, so she said, "I'm going to keep my stomach for a while and eat roasted sparrows." ”

It's just that Su Xi suddenly remembered that the reason why she grew and gained weight in her previous life was due to Fu Shaoyun. One of the great joys of Fu Shaoyun's life is that she has collected all kinds of delicious food, delicacies from the mountains and seas, and delicacies, and finally not only raises Su Xi's mouth, but also feeds Su Xi's body round.

Ill-intentioned, Su Xi thought silently.

*

Half an hour later, Fu Shaoyun caught a total of eight sparrows. He asked the man in the small kitchen to clean the sparrows, and then he set up a fire directly in the courtyard where the flowers were fragrant, and sat in the snow and roasted the sparrows. Su Xi moved a small pestle and sat on his right hand, Su Li and Su Baiyu sat on the left, and after a while, the sparrow meat was cooked, and there was a pungent fragrance.

Fu Shaoyun handed the first roasted sparrow to Su Xi.

Su Baiyu turned his head and pulled Su Li's sleeves, his bright eyes were like black pearls washed by water, "Daddy......"

Su Li stretched out his big palm, rubbed Su Baiyu's little head, flipped the roasted sparrow in his hand with the other hand, and said, "Don't worry, it'll be fine in a while." ”

Su Baiyu stopped urging and waited quietly.

"What do I say, it smells so good, so you secretly roast sparrows here!"

Su Xi had just taken the first bite when a crisp sound came from behind him. She turned around and saw two eleven or twelve-year-old girls standing at the door of the flower open-air incense, the one wearing an apricot red gold embroidered lotus pattern jacket walking in front, looking at Su Xi with a smile: "Okay, Sister Xi, you don't even call me when you eat roasted sparrows, it's not kind." ”

Su Xi stood up and shouted, "Sister Tang." Then he looked at the girl wearing a concubine-colored trimmed floral pattern behind Tang Wan, paused, and said, "Sister Yi." ”

The wife of Fu Hongsheng, the Duke of Qingguo, and Mrs. Su are cousins, from the Tan family in Bozhou, and Fu Shaoyun and Fu Yi are Su Xi's cousins and cousins.

Fu Yi was twelve this year, and when he was eight years old, he became famous for his talent with a poem "Early Spring Fu", and was praised by the poet Confucian Zhou Yuan as a "malleable talent". Today, although Fu Yi is not very old, she has begun to become popular in the circle of noble girls. Whether it is the appearance or demeanor, it is excellent. Fu Yi smiled slightly and replied, "Cousin Xi, cousin Li." ”

Su Xi knew that Fu Yi was only emerging now, and after two or three years, her talent and fame gradually spread far and wide, and she was a talented and beautiful lady in the capital, and her reputation was so famous that it was said that the threshold of going to the Qingguo Mansion to ask for relatives was about to be broken.

Su Xi stared at the sparrow on the iron stick, and suddenly lost his appetite.

In her previous life, when Fu Yi was famous, she was studying in the clan studies. Although Su Xi's talent is no worse than Fu Yi's, because of his young age and the fact that most people at the time judge people by their appearance, Su Xi's round and fat figure at that time was really not appreciated, so the gap between the two was widened. The people of the Great Yan Dynasty admired "beauty as the fashion", it is enough to have a face, and a person like Fu Yi who is both talented and beautiful is not even more loved?

It's normal for an old-fashioned and conformist person like Li Yan to like Fu Yi.

It's just that since Li Yan likes Fu Yi, why did he agree to marry her? married her, and still pretended to be someone else in his heart, which really made Su Xi angry.

Tang Wan saw Su Xi pursing her pink lips, half silent, and couldn't help but bump her with her elbow: "Sister Xi? ”

Su Xi was in a trance, looking at Tang Wan's caring gaze, she gave the roasted sparrow in her hand to Tang Wan, and said: "Sister Tang, let's eat for you, I have eaten a lot for breakfast today, and I will still hold it at this time." ”

Tang Wan is the daughter of Tang Huaikang, the envoy of the two Huai Salt Transport, Tang Huaikang and the eldest master Su Zhen were classmates and friends in the early years, and the two had a very personal relationship. Tang Wan often followed his mother Tian to visit Sufu, and over time he became close friends with Su Xi. Today, Tang Wan came with his parents, and the people from the Qingguo Mansion were also there, so he had no choice but to bring Fu Yi'er to Su Xi.

Tang Wan and Fu Yi didn't have any friendship, the two were not all the way, and they didn't talk much along the way.

Tang Wan took the iron stick, took a bite generously, and said, "This is what you baked?" The sparrow meat is quite tender, and the taste is just right, and the craftsmanship is good. ”

Su Xi's face flushed, and he subconsciously looked at Fu Shaoyun next to him.

It just so happened that Fu Shaoyun was also looking at her, with a faint smile on his lips. Obviously, he didn't say anything, but it just gave Su Xi an inexplicable sense of emptiness.

Fortunately, Su Lingrong and Su Lingyun also came this way, distracting everyone's attention. The two of them greeted Tang Wan and Fu Yi, then sat between Su Xi and Fu Yi, and talked with Fu Yi enthusiastically. Su Xi didn't want to be next to Fu Yi, so she was happy to give way to them.

Su Lingrong said: "Sister Yi'er's clothes are so good-looking, the pattern on the neckline is very chic, I don't know which embroiderer embroidered it?" ”

Fu Yi smiled and said, "It's the clothes of Embroidered Chunju." ”

Su Lingrong and Su Lingyun both showed envy on their faces.

Su Lingyun was even more exaggerated: "As the saying goes, people rely on clothes, and Buddha relies on gold, and Sister Yi wears this clothes, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a fairy daughter in the sky." Seeing Fu Yi but smiling silently, Su Lingyun asked again: "It is said that embroidered Chunju's clothes are hard to find, and those ten pieces are made every year, and they were set by the ladies in the palace early, I don't know how Sister Yi got it?" ”

Fu Yi looked at Fu Shaoyun opposite and said, "It was given to me by my brother." ”

These words successfully moved the attention of Su Lingyun and the others to Fu Shaoyun. Su Lingyun looked at Fu Shaoyun, who had a face like a crown of jade and a handsome demeanor, her face flushed slightly, she bit her lip and said, "Cousin Yun, is the sparrow in your hand cooked?" ”

Fu Shaoyun smiled with peach blossom eyes, but he didn't look at Su Lingyun. He flipped through the iron skewer in his hand, and when he saw that it was almost baked, he said, "It's cooked." As he spoke, he lifted his eyes to look at the absent-minded little girl beside him, handed her the iron stick, and said, "Cousin Xi, you can eat." ”

A sparrow doesn't have a lot of meat. Su Xi did not refute Fu Shaoyun's face again and again, not to mention in front of many people, she said, "Thank you, cousin Shaoyun." ”

The smile in Fu Shaoyun's eyes deepened: "You're welcome." ”

Su Lingyun's face was pale and pale, quite embarrassed.

*

After eating the roasted sparrows, Su Li rarely had time, so he accompanied Su Baiyu to play elsewhere, and Fu Shaoyun also said goodbye and returned to the front hall.

As the master, Su Xi led Fu Yi and Tang Wan to the backyard to visit the garden, just to slip around and eliminate food.

Su Lingyun, Su Lingrong and Fu Yi walked in front, and Su Xi and Tang Wan were a little behind them.

Su Lingrong said casually: "I heard that this year's Shangyuan Festival, Princess Shouchang will set up a peony banquet in Luhua Garden, and Princess Qi will also be present at that time." ”

Su Lingyun let out a strange "huh" and blurted out: "Isn't Princess Qi far away in Qizhou?" When did you return to Beijing? ”

Qi Wang Wei Liankun is the cousin of Jinshang, and since the fiefdom of Qizhou, he has not set foot in the capital for many years.

Su Lingrong said: "I also happened to hear the eldest uncle talk to the old ancestor, it seems that the king of Qi was summoned back to Beijing today, and he will be able to arrive in the capital in a few days." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Fu Yi, "Sister Yi, you are good with Wanping Weng, do you know when Princess Qi will arrive in the capital?" ”

Wan Ping Weng's patron Heli is the daughter of the eldest princess of Shouchang.

Fu Yi smiled and shook his head, "Heli doesn't tell me this. ”

Su Lingrong was obviously a little disappointed.

Although it is the news of Princess Qi that is being inquired, how many of them are really interested in Princess Qi?

The prince of Qi, Wei Feng, Zhilan Yushu, is handsome and handsome, and that is the object of the noble women in Shangjing. This time King Qi returned to Beijing, Wei Feng will presumably come back with him.

Although Wei Feng is far away in Qizhou, his talent and reputation have already spread all over Beijing. The people of the time praised Wei Feng for having a sentence - "The pine wind and water are not enough to compare with its Qinghua; The pearl of fairy dew, the recitation of the party can be smooth. "Even the pearl of fairy dew can't describe his handsomeness, so what kind of appearance should it be?

Although Su Lingrong had never seen him, it did not prevent her from depicting Wei Feng's appearance in her heart.

At this time, Su Xi and Tang Wan walked behind slowly, watching the pear blossoms in the yard, and there were endless words.

Tang Wan said: "After the beginning of spring, my second brother is going to study at Sansong Academy, I want to go to the street to pick a farewell gift for him, can you go with me?" It just so happens that there are a lot of fashionable new ingredients outside, and we can still shop around. What do you say, young and young? ”

Su Xi was looking at a cluster of pear blossoms in front of him, and when he heard this, he turned around, and his cheeks were comparable to pear blossoms. She said, "Okay." ”
