Chapter 42: Punchline List

Early in the morning, Xiaoci hummed a song and swung on the swing in the yard, and saw the bamboo basket coming out of the house from a distance. Ran all the way into the arms of the bamboo basket, filial piety is not high, only to the waist of the bamboo basket, the bamboo basket hugged filial piety, and then squatted down, untied the veil for filial piety, and said with a smile: "Why do you sweat so much, come into the house to eliminate sweat, and catch a cold carefully." With that, he took Xiaoci's hand and entered the house.

The house was originally a Chinese-style building, but because of the entry of Xiaoci and his party, there are many shadows of the Korean interior. Haoyue put down the teacup, and saw Xiaoci holding the hand of the bamboo basket into the house, beckoning Xiaoci to sit beside him, and carefully wiping the sweat beads on Xiaoci's forehead. The bamboo basket did not sit down, Haoyue saw it, raised her head and smiled: "Bamboo basket sit down and rest." ”

Li Haoyue is the daughter of the Korean clan who lived in Taoyao with Xiaoci. These days, Zhu Ji and Haoyue have been communicating in Chinese, Xiaoci does not know Chinese, when Zhu Ji talks to her, he uses more Korean, although it is still a little lame, in the end he can still barely communicate, and Zhu Ji has been in China for a long time, and often listen to her and Haoyue speak Chinese, Xiaoci can occasionally pop out a few words.

In the month of Layue, Kangxi will take advantage of the state banquet to entertain the North Korean mission, and at that time, the prince, the prince, and all the ministers will attend, which will be more grand than the reception banquet when the North Korean mission first arrived. Seeing that the banquet was approaching, Haoyue seemed to be anxious, and it was inconvenient for Zhu Ji to say anything, but sometimes he heard a thing or two from Xiaoci, but he didn't know the root cause. I haven't sorted out my own affairs yet, so let's forget about this kind of "helping foreign friends".

With the arrival of Xiaoci and Haoyue, the gift lists from all directions flew to the table of Taoyaoju one after another. Xiaoci never pays attention to these, Haoyue occasionally looks at it, and the bamboo basket looks at it twice. Most of the gift lists are as usual, the earliest one is the prince's, and the prince's gift list is only after the prince's, and the concubine's and daughter's are listed separately.

When Zhu Ji saw the gift list of the fourteenth elder brother, he almost didn't laugh in front of Haoyue, this fourteen, this is deliberately to show her, or is it a demonstration to the North Korea? Other conventions and not to say, but the extra few examples, the gifts, is a little strange, the name is written well, inlaid with sapphire gold rod warm jade, bamboo hoop picked up the nearest jade from their own to play, gold inlaid jade, but the real material. Next to the bamboo basket, Haoyue picked up a few small seed-like particles, put them under her nose and sniffed them, frowned lightly and said to the bamboo basket: "What is this?" ”

Fennel seeds?

"What are you doing here?" The fourteenth elder brother hurriedly picked up his cup and dodged it, but in the end he still asked the bamboo basket to throw a few fennel seeds into it.

"The fourteenth master doesn't know the goods, the slave is kind, look at your swollen eyes, make some fragrant seed mint tea for you to drink, you still don't appreciate it!" The bamboo basket glanced at the fourteenth elder brother, and his face was not red and his heart was not beating when he said something, and after speaking, he lowered his head and continued to sort out his spices.

Seeing that Zhu Zhen said clearly, the fourteenth elder brother sniffed the tea in the cup suspiciously, and whispered: "There is a special aroma." Putting down the cup, the fourteenth elder brother took a sewn spice bag, played with it in his hand, and said, "You girl has a lot of ideas, how dare I listen to you easily, and I was deceived miserably if I couldn't keep it." ”

The bamboo basket still lowered his head to sort out the spices, and silently hooked the corners of his mouth, but he really said that he was right, he was afraid of being noisy, and threw a few fennel seeds to clean him, and then that remark was also suddenly thought of, and these did not need to be explained to him.

Seeing that Zhu Zhen ignored him, the fourteenth elder brother said to himself: "What are you sewing this sachet for?" Hang up and smoke the house? ”

Zhu Zhen snatched the spice bag and threw it into the basket on the table, and said, "What kind of smoked house, which one has you ever seen smoked the house with star anise cinnamon and fennel seeds?" ”

The spice bag was snatched away, and the fourteenth elder brother didn't get angry, so he sniffed another piece of cinnamon, covered his mouth and nose and coughed twice: "What is this?" It smells so choking. ”

"You are an uncle, and I have never seen these spices for stew. Slave and maid, you should stay where you want! The spice packets were sewn up, and the bamboo basket began to tidy up the table.

"Stew? What, what are you going to do to eat? When the fourteenth elder brother heard the bamboo basket say that he wanted to stew meat, he immediately sat up straight, staring at the bamboo basket with bright eyes. The bamboo basket sometimes makes some food to satisfy his hunger, and the fourteenth elder brother runs diligently to the bamboo basket, and naturally he is not less asked to be wet, and the raw materials are the exchange conditions.

Knowing that he was the most gluttonous one, the bamboo basket sent a big roll of his eyes, and said: "I heard that I was going to eat, and I didn't even have a little eyesight, fennel fennel, this is a send-off!" Snatching the cup from the fourteenth elder brother's hand, Zhu Zhen said, "The stew is not something that can be eaten for a while, and if you make it another day, I will pick some of each and send it to you." ”

The fourteenth elder brother is used to getting along with the bamboo basket like this on weekdays, and he didn't think it was too bad to call the bamboo basket, and said with a smile: "Pick more, last time the small cup of roast pork with the word Fu, I haven't eaten a few bites, and I have asked Xiao Fifteen to snatch it up!" ”

"Little cup? Last time, I obviously served a soup cup, and most of the pot was served to you. Zhu Zhen ignored the complaints of the fourteenth elder brother and directly exposed him.

Seeing that his lies were exposed, the fourteenth elder brother did not blush, and said with a smile: "Even if it is a soup cup, how many can there be?" I'm a gentleman, I naturally eat more meat than your little girl, don't say that that cup, even if you bring me the pot, I can still eat a piece of it! ”

Zhu Zhen wrinkled his nose and snorted: "Big gluttonous cat! ”

"If it weren't for you, how could I be a big glutton?" The fourteenth elder brother laughed "haha", pinched the face of the bamboo basket, and slapped the bamboo basket down.

"Sister Zhuji, what is this?" Xiaoci's voice interrupted Zhu Zong's recollection.

The bamboo hoop followed the prestige - a bag of glass beads, colorful and green, scattered on a table, Xiaoci was having fun.

"This is a glass marble, I think the fourteenth master is afraid that Xiaoci will be bored, so he will send you some to relieve your boredom, and the little brother Xiao Gege in the palace often plays these." Zhu Zhen broke two sentences indiscriminately, Xiaoci was having fun, and he didn't go to his heart.

Jade, fennel seeds, glass marbles, this fourteen, he can figure it out! Zhu Zhen thought about it, and laughed.

"What are you happy about, so happy?" Zhu Zhen turned around and saw Sibeile not far behind him.

The corners of his mouth rose involuntarily, the bamboo basket turned back, tilted his head and said, "I'm laughing at the gift list of the Fourteenth Master." ”

"Fourteenth brother? Gift list? What gift list? "Sibeile and Zhu Ji walked side by side, Dao.

"It's the gift list sent to Tao Yaoju, guess what?" Zhu Zhen said with a smile.

"The ones sent to Taoyaoju are nothing more than the strings of beads, cloth, and porcelain on the old example." Four Baylor said casually.

"Of course, these are there, but they are still around." The uncontrollable smile on Bamboo Basket's face made Sibeile stop in curiosity.

"What's extra? Let's hear it. "Four Baylor Road.

"For example, jade."

"Jade? However, the things that women use in their homes on weekdays are not uncommon. "Four Baylor Road.

"What about fennel seeds?" Zhu Zhen said again.

"Fennel seeds?" Sibeile frowned and said, "What did Old Fourteen send this thing for?" ”

Zhu Zhen didn't rush to answer him, spread his palms in front of Sibeile, and said, "There is also this." ”

"Marbles?" Four Baylor picked one up, spun around, didn't see any tricks, and put it back again.

After all, it was near Taoyaoju, and I don't know which North Korean would hear it, and then make a bad thing between the two countries, and Zhu Ji didn't say anything to Sibeile.

"By the way, in the future, I will cook less food for those boys, one by one, the imperial dining room is not enough for them to eat, what are you always tired of?" IV. Baylor Road.

Hearing this, Zhu Zhen was stunned for a moment, and then understood that the fourth Belle meant that the fourteenth elder brother always ate and drank here with him, and even brought the following little elder brothers to eat and drink, and said with a smile: "How did it happen to them, I wanted to eat it myself, so I made some, since I did it, more and less are the same, it's not a big deal, and I can't be tired." ”

"I didn't see you bring me some." Four Baylor looked away and muttered quietly.

Although the voice was small, the bamboo basket was close, so he naturally heard it, and giggled: "It's just something that is made casually, where is it embarrassing to go to you to offer treasures?" ”

When Sibeile heard this, he turned around sharply and rushed out: "What you have done to me is not uncommon!" As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to feel a little embarrassed, and Sibeile coughed and turned sideways.

Zhu Zhen was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect that a person with the temperament of Si Beile would say such emotional words, not to mention that it was still in this kind of place where someone would pass by at any time, knowing that it was not possible, but in the next second, action replaced thought, Zhu Zhen wrapped around his waist from behind Si Beile, put one side of his cheek on Si Beile's back, and said softly: "Sending them food is to raise them to be full of fat meat, in this way, only my Yinzhen is the most handsome!" ”

Pulling the bamboo basket to his side, Sibeile scraped the bamboo basket's nose and pretended to be angry: "Isn't this the case now, I'm not the most handsome of the brothers?" ”

Since there was a time before when Zhu Zhu said that he had slipped his mouth, Si Baylor seemed to be very comfortable with the word "handsome".

The bamboo basket carefully looked at Sibeile from top to bottom for a while, nodded and shook his head for a while, but he didn't speak. Before, Sibeile really let her look at it as if it was a thing, hoping that she could say something good, but the more she looked at the posture of the bamboo basket, the more she figured it out, this girl couldn't say anything good, and she was impatient, so she pulled the bamboo basket and slapped her on the buttocks.

Zhu Zhen was frightened, although he wore a lot of clothes in winter, but he couldn't just ...... Zhu Zhen's face was swollen, he wanted to tease him, but he never thought that he was "teased" instead.

Seeing that Zhu Beile was embarrassed in place, and he couldn't speak, Si Beile smiled more and more proudly, and said: "What kind of trick is it to play with the master, be obedient in the future, otherwise it will ......" Si Beile glanced at the place where he had just started, and saw that Zhu Beile's body stiffened, and couldn't help but turn sideways to block his sight, Si Beile smiled even more, and said, "Otherwise, the master will clean you up like today in the future!" ”

I don't know how to go back to my room, push the door in, Haoyue was waiting inside, and Zhu Zhen frowned inadvertently.
