Chapter 69: Don't Drink
The dumplings are cooked, and there is no need to put any seasonings, and the fillings inside are all made by Jin Xi, and they can be eaten after cooking.
Zhao Shu cooked all the dumplings, put them in a palace bowl and put them in the pot to keep warm, and then began to check the Sixi balls and duck soup, and it still took some time to cook, so she found a stool to sit and wait.
At this time, the window suddenly opened, she immediately looked over, but saw that there was an extra food box by the window, she hurriedly turned back to look at Chu Chun and the others, fortunately, they didn't find anything.
After closing the door, he took out the palace bowl from the pot and put it in the food box, and Wei Tingsi was dressed in black and leaned against the window.
"What else did the county lord do?"
"Doing fun, I still have to eat the imperial chef's cooking, I'll give my brother some and put it in the embroidery building, my brother will take it by himself, dare to ask my brother to keep it like this?"
Wei Tingsi knew what she was asking, and nodded, "My whereabouts can't be revealed, so I ate the last meal but didn't have the next meal, and now it's okay." ”
It's too pitiful to say, Zhao Shu's compassion was overflowing, and she said: "In the future, I'll prepare meals for my brother until my brother leaves, okay?" ”
Wei Tingsi covered his face with a black cloth, and smiled happily when he heard Zhao Shu's words, but the smile in his eyes was hidden deeply, and when the cold wind hit, Zhao Shu was shocked and didn't see the smile in his eyes.
"Okay." He has long been accustomed to sleeping in the open air, and it has become an old practice to take the sky as the cover of the earth, and since his mother died, no one has ever said anything about preparing meals for him.
"Brother, it's broad daylight now, you leave quickly, and if you don't leave, I'm afraid the dumplings will be cold, and if they are cold, they won't taste good." He was too tall, and Zhao Shu was too short, so he didn't notice the touch in his eyes, so he threw the food box into his hand and urged.
Wei Tingsi violently collected the turmoil in his heart. suppressed a trace of complicated feelings in his heart, carried the food box, and said to Zhao Shu: "There are also rice cakes, when will Shushu make them for me?" ”
Zhao Shu waved her hand, "I'm free." "It's going to be an inch.
In fact, Weittings has been very satisfied with others in a year. There is Chinese New Year's Eve. There is the Dragon Boat Festival, there is Chongyang, and he is running around all over the country every year. After the age of six, he never really ate year-end dumplings again.
This sentence is just trying to say, but it is just a sentence, nothing more.
Carry a food box. A few left in unison, not much. Then he came to a house, which was only one street away from the palace.
Hu Yishen saw that Wei Tingsi was coming over with a food box, and hurriedly greeted him, "My lord." But hungry? My sister-in-law is making fish soup in the kitchen, and she will be able to eat it later. ”
Wei Tingsi pulled the black cloth on the bottom and said, "Take a pair of chopsticks." ”
Hu Yishen looked at the food box suspiciously. didn't dare to ask, Ma slipped down to get chopsticks. When he came back, he saw that Wei Tingsi had taken out the palace bowl in the food box, and there were still more than a dozen dumplings lying in the bowl.
This Qingdao light yellow bottom Baihua Palace bowl, at a glance, he knew that it was something in the palace, he pouted, my lord, this elm pimple didn't come by the way, right?
Shun also smooths some good-looking, looking at the dumplings, they look ...... He can't even describe it, although if he is allowed to bag, it must be uglier than this, but he just dislikes it.
However, Wei Tingsi picked up the chopsticks and picked out the ugly ones to eat, and the corners of his mouth raised a bright smile while eating, Hu Yishen pinched himself like a ghost, and the adult laughed?
Hiss, gasp, it hurts, it's real!
Ever since I met adults, I saw adults laugh as many times, I can count them on five fingers, and now I laugh while eating a bowl of dumplings?
Swallow saliva, are the dumplings too delicious? It's not right, the adult is not the person who has a heavy appetite, is it the little county lord who personally wrapped it? Thinking of this possibility, Hu Yishen covered his mouth, and after covering his mouth, he found that he was not covering it right, so he was busy covering his eyes, he didn't see anything, he didn't see anything!
Yes, yes, there are a few good-looking ones in the bowl, and the good-looking ones must be the county lord's bag, and the ugly ones must be covered by the nobles in order to experience life.
Yes, it must be.
Wei Tingsi ate all the dumplings in Zhao Shubao, and he was still unsatisfied, but he still put down the chopsticks, and only the five good-looking ones were left in the palace bowl.
Hu Yi sank, and he was suspicious again, why don't adults eat good-looking ones? Could it be that the county lord made it, so he was reluctant to eat it, and then planned to keep it as a souvenir? Don't, you can't stay!
Where did Wei Tingsi know that he was thinking nonsense, and put the chopsticks down: "Eat, the stuffing is better than that made by my sister-in-law." ”
Hu Yi swallowed his saliva, Wei Tingsi ate deliciously, he looked at it with his eyes, and he felt that it must be extremely delicious, but just give it to himself? He pointed to himself, "My lord, do you mean, give me the rest?" ”
"Yes." Wei Tingsi said lightly.
Hu Yishen scratched his ears, he really couldn't figure out why Wei Tingsi was like this, he tentatively ate one, the taste was indeed countless times more delicious than that of his sister-in-law, the food was in his mouth, where could he manage so much, and he ate all the remaining dumplings after swallowing dates.
After the five of them finished eating, they still wanted to eat, turned their heads to look at Wei Tingsi, and smirked, "My lord." ”
Before he could speak, Wei Tingsi personally put the bowl back into the food box, and walked away with the food box.
It happened that my sister-in-law came in with a meal, and she was stunned when she saw him there, "Ah Shen, why are you stunned?" ”
Hu Yishen scratched his ears and asked, "Sister-in-law, I saw the adults laughing just now." ”
Sister-in-law is a woman in her fifties, life has carved countless traces of vicissitudes on her, but people are extremely gentle, hearing Wei Tingsi actually smiled, her face flashed with surprise, "Really? ”
"Really, Lord Fang just ate a plate of dumplings and laughed while eating." There was a fire of gossip in his heart, and he desperately wanted to get a gossip friend to discuss it.
Sister-in-law was puzzled: "The dumplings haven't been cooked yet, where do adults go to eat the dumplings?" ”
Hu Yishen: ...... I deeply feel how difficult it is to communicate if you are not on the same level.
Sent away Wei Tingsi, Zhao Shu's soup and meatballs were also ready, scooped them out, put them in the pot to keep warm, clean their hands, and went out of the small kitchen.
Chu Chun and the others were relieved to see that their county lord had finally come out, and they came up to her and put on a brown moire white feather trimmed cloak, "County lord, but you want to go back to Jinlan Hall to change clothes?" ”
"Yes, go and change your clothes." Now there is a smell of oil smoke on her body, and she doesn't feel anything when she smells it, because she is used to smelling it, and others will smell it, and they must dislike her.
Coming out of the kitchen, she went directly back to Jinlan Palace, where Sheng Xia and the others had already prepared a soup bath.
Tang bath, she still likes hot springs, but there must be no hot springs in Guanzhou, and I haven't heard of them near the capital, so I can only think about it.
After showering and changing. The green pothos said: "County Lord." The food that Miss Huo sent yesterday has not been touched yet, and the slave maid has seen it. Miss Huo made soup for you. ”
Recently, there have been too many things, and she didn't remember to send some things to Huo Danlan a year ago, and at this time Luluo mentioned it. She suddenly felt guilty in her heart, "It's cold. It shouldn't be broken, you can let the apricots warm it and bring it to me. ”
Green Pothos wanted to persuade Zhao Shu, but when she saw that early spring gave her a look, she was reluctant to go down. When did their county lord use something overnight?
Zhao Shu lay on the chaise longue, letting Chu Chun twist her hair, originally wanting to find a book to read. But his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and he fell asleep after a while. I slept too late last night, and I woke up late in the morning, but I was very sleepy.
Like her, there are many people who sleep very late, Sun Yun asked half a bunch to take off the robe that Liang Yunsi brought, and sat on the chair himself, looking through the letter in his hand.
The letter was not from her mother, Ma, but from her grandmother, and she read the contents of the letter, and she knew from the beginning that her grandmother did not like her, because she had a concubine, but she was not a man.
However, she did not expect that her own grandmother would make her not have a good time on this Chinese New Year's Eve, not only did not have a word of booing and warmth, but also had no loving thoughts, every sentence of criticism, and every accusation.
"As you wish, my granddaughter doesn't like the surname Sun very much." Muttering to himself, in his words, sad and angry, as soon as he finished speaking, he folded the letter paper into a picture of his clothes and threw it into the brazier.
This Chinese New Year's Eve, no one seems to be able to live well, when everyone is together, they all smile, trying to hide the sorrow in their hearts with a smile, but when they are alone, they can no longer have the strength to maintain that reluctant smile.
Hao Shumei has been lying on the bed, and the Queen Mother has not seen her, and she doesn't need to go to anyone to say goodbye, so she hasn't gotten up, and her body has not yet recovered, and she is still extremely weak.
"Did you find out?" She asked in a cold voice.
The black-clothed man kneeling in front of the bed lowered his head, "The people of the Huo family broke through regardless of it, all the clues were broken, and the minions were afraid that they had found out Song Tianhe's hiding location." ”
Hao Shumei looked at the black-clothed man in front of the bed through the curtain, his eyes were extremely angry, "A bunch of waste!" ”
"Mother's atonement." The man in black immediately kowtowed, "I also asked Niangniang to give an order, let the servants stop the people of the Huo family, and ask Niangniang to repair the book and return to Beijing." ”
Hao Shumei was so angry that her heart continued to fluctuate, and her pale face looked even more terrifying, and after a long time, she said: "Go, regardless of the price, you must stop the people of the Huo family, and you must not let the people of the Huo family find Song Tianhe, and you don't need to worry about the rest." ”
"Niangniang......" The man in black still wanted to speak, but Hao Shumei turned his head, stopped talking, and stood aside and said coldly: "What?" Are you going to disobey? ”
"The minions are gone." The man in black retreated unwillingly.
Hua Mei closed the window opened by the man in black, returned to Hao Shumei's bedside, and said softly: "Niangniang, are you better?" The slave maid asked the kitchen to stew soup for you. ”
The kitchen in her mouth is naturally not the big kitchen used by Jin Xi, but the cook they brought with them when they came.
After waiting for a long time, I heard Hao Shumei's words, lazy and unenergetic, "I have no appetite, I heard that Liang Yunsi is here, you go and call him to come to the palace." ”
"Niangniang, you still use some more." Yumei softly comforted.
Hao Shumei didn't answer, but said, "Why does the Huo family want to help King Yong?" In the past, where was Yongwang useful? Now it's good, he has become the hottest prince with his bare hands, and the palace is really angry, why? An absurd prince who declared his wanderings has become a generation of virtuous kings, and now King Jing's momentum is not as strong as his. ”
Naturally, Mei didn't know as much as Hao Shumei, and she couldn't answer the words, so she picked up the latest news and said: "The slave maid heard that His Royal Highness King Yongwang and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will make dumplings in person today." ”
"Hmph, paralyzing people's hearts, this palace won't believe it." Hao Shumei snorted coldly, she couldn't understand the prince anymore, she was so ambitious, how could she go to the kitchen where only women go? What's more, making dumplings by hand must be deliberately paralyzing others, making others mistakenly think that he has a good attitude of indifference to fame and fortune.
There is also King Yong, King Yong's scheming is so deep that she is frightened, how can a person who has been disguised for decades be simple?
Huamei couldn't answer the conversation again, racked her brains, and came up with one thing, maybe something that could keep up with Niangniang's thinking, and said: "Niangniang, do you want to repair the book and return to Beijing?" The slave and maid went and fetched pigeons and pen and ink. ”
"Confused!" Hao Shumei scolded sharply, "The Huo family can intercept our flying pigeons, but we are powerless to intercept their flying pigeons, this matter is absolutely impossible." ”
She seemed to be convincing herself, not explaining to Hua Mei, the words came out of her mouth, how confident she was, what if the Huo family really knew where Song Tianhe was hiding? If you don't fly a pigeon and pass the book into Beijing, you will lose Song Tianhe, and you will have no weapon to threaten the eternal king, what should I do?
The more she thought about it, the more she hated this prince who had suddenly become famous.
His Royal Highness King Yong, who was hated, was playing chess with the prince at this time, showing his strength, and the two were fighting equally.
Liang Yunsi saw the Queen Mother, came out and saw this comfortable Chinese New Year's Eve picture, smiled slightly, compared to the capital, Guanzhou can be regarded as a paradise, did not disturb, just a distant salute, and went out, he did not have much time, saw the Queen Mother, he wanted to see Hao Guifei, the emperor did not focus on letting him bring the will to the prince, he could see the prince can also smile and play chess with His Royal Highness King Yong, he is much more relieved.
He is also biased, among the princes, he is biased towards the prince, watching the prince grow up, to put it mildly, he grew up watching the prince as a son.
After Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Liang Yunsi leaving, the prince breathed a sigh of relief, now that his leg injury has not healed, his future is uncertain, and he doesn't want to receive too much attention, especially in front of his father, it is best to be a transparent person.
It's just that Liang Yunsi didn't bring a letter from the queen mother, he was very disappointed, and he knew that the queen mother must be extremely difficult at this time.
The young man doesn't know the taste of sorrow, the years of being sad for the new words are long gone, Zhao Yi, who thinks about the good in everything, has long since died, and now he is used to preparing for the worst first.
An even more powerful prince is quietly growing, and the men who have long been steely, who have been through the wind and waves, are gathering together to discuss where it is appropriate to kill people today.
Huo Baichuan picked up a pot of sake, came to Wei Tingsi's side, and put it down, "Don't you mind if I keep the New Year with you?" Obviously, he saw that Wei Tingsi had no one to take care of him, he was alone, he sympathized with him, and wanted to do something, but the words he said were extremely unruly, and there was no warmth at all.
Wei Tingsi glanced at the flask and said, "Mind me." ”
Answering as expected, Huo Baichuan knew early on that Wei Tingsi was a cold person, and he didn't need the sympathy of others, so he was rejected, and he didn't get angry, and opened the wine jug, "Have a drink?" ”
"Thank you, but I don't drink, if Brother Huo doesn't mind, I'll replace the wine with tea and toast Brother Huo." Wei Tingsi moved the teapot and made a gesture to pour tea, and he had to go to the palace later, how could he drink? (To be continued.) )
