Chapter 60: There is no coconut that can't be handled
Since it is the Qi Palace, it is natural to abide by the rules of the Qi Palace.
Maybe it was the little maids in the house, and they all knew that Lin Wanbai was very likely to be their future concubine, so when they led them into the living room, their tone was very respectful, and they were simply treated as guests.
But for Lin Manlu, I don't see this respect, just use general hospitality.
Lin Manlu was angry in her heart, she was the daughter of the Lin family, and she had the ability to make fragrances, no matter where she went, she was like the stars holding the moon; Now, when she came to King Qi's Mansion, she became Lin Wanbai's match.
"Miss Lin, please use tea."
In King Qi's mansion, even if she is just an ordinary maid, she looks delicate and has a sweet voice; Lin Wanbai has always been appreciated by both men and women, and she is even more excited about little beauties.
A maid had just left, and another one came immediately, holding a fresh almond cake, and said with a smile: "Miss Lin, please use pastries." ”
Lin Wanbai smiled and nodded, it seems that the people in the Qi Palace's Mansion are also very easy to get along with, and they are not as intriguing as they imagined.
"Miss Lin, this is the fresh fruit that the emperor rewarded yesterday, I heard that it was sent from the south urgently, and the prince instructed that Miss Lin came and brought it to taste."
As soon as he put down the almond cake, a large plate of water ghosts was brought in, and everyone was talking around Lin Wanbai, but Lin Manlu, who was sitting on the side, was not as good as a match.
When Lin Wanbai heard the urgency, he became interested, and raised his head to see how precious the fresh fruit sent by the urgency was. However, what caught my eye was lotus mist, pink banana, yellow peel and two coconuts.
She was stunned for a moment, but immediately reacted, in this kind of dynasty where transportation is extremely backward and still relies on horse-drawn carriages to run, the circulation of materials is very narrow, especially fresh fruits, which cannot be stored for a long time, are even more rare.
Lin Wanbai remembered the allusion of riding a red dust concubine and laughing, it seems that such extravagant actions, no matter where they are placed, are not uncommon.
Seeing Lin Wanbai looking at the fresh fruit on the plate blankly, the maid on the side pursed her lips and laughed, pointed to the introduction one by one and said: "The slave maid also listened to what Mama said, this is called yellow skin, which quenches thirst, and the peel can also be pickled, which has the effect of dissolving phlegm and relieving cough." ”
After speaking, the maid took a small handful and handed it to Lin Wanbai, these fresh fruits are not common in the north, and ordinary people don't even have the opportunity to eat them.
Lin Manlu took a look at it, she hadn't seen it before, but no one gave it to her, so it was not good to do it herself.
"There is also this lotus mist, which is said to be a specialty of Yizhou."
The maid said, picked a bright red lotus mist and handed it to Lin Wanbai, for this future princess, they all have the heart to please.
However, these are extremely precious fresh fruits in the eyes of everyone, and for Lin Wanbai, they can be seen in any fruit store, which really can't bring up any freshness.
"Lu'er, you taste."
Even if Lin Manlu on the side didn't say a word, she had already felt that resentful look, and she was about to shoot her and the two little maids beside her into a hornet's nest.
Even though Lin Man showed a lot of scheming, he was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and when he saw this novelty, he hurriedly took it over and studied how to eat it.
"And these two coconuts are transported from Qiongzhou, but how do you eat them...... Or it's for decoration. ”
For those two hard balls, everyone slapped them with their hands, and they really didn't know where to start.
Coconut equals ornamentation?
Lin Wanbai smiled helplessly, and heard someone shouting her name, the voice was getting closer and closer, she just raised her head, and saw a green figure rushing over and hugging her directly.
"Wanbai, Wanbai."
Hongshu hugged her and called her name happily, in this kind of man and woman will be criticized for looking at each other more, but for a fool, everyone will give great care.
And the direct embodiment of this care is that no one plans to step forward to rescue Lin Wanbai, who was held by Hongshu.
"Let it go."
Lin Wanbai pushed him away with all her might, but with her strength, where could she fight against an adult man.
"Wanbai came to see me, is it not going to leave again, just stay here?"
Hongshu looked very happy, his eyebrows and eyes were raised, and he didn't look stupid at all.
"You give it to me...... Sit down! ”
Lin Wanbai really couldn't bear it, and after pushing him away, he pointed to the chair with his finger and shouted. The puppy she had in the past, if she was disobedient, had to be treated in this way.
Hongshu seemed to be startled by her, quickly let go, and then sat on the chair, his eyes full of grievances; The rest of the maids, who dared to speak so loudly to Hong Shizi, were silent, but they had more admiration for this future princess in their hearts.
It seems that their Hongshizi really has to find someone to take care of him.
Seeing that the living room was quiet all of a sudden, Lin Wanbai sighed in her heart, how could she forget that Hongshu was the prince of the world, even if she was a little stupid, she could say that she was a fool in this hierarchical dynasty, even if she was a madman, she had to serve as a master.
If Prince Qi and Princess Qi knew that she scolded their baby son so loudly, it is estimated that she would really not have the head to walk out of this door.
"Hong Shizi, Wan Bai is playing with you, Cao Ye said that Hong Shizi wanted to see Wan Bai, so he didn't dare to slack off, so he came immediately."
Lin Wanbai accompanied the smiling face, hoping that Hongshu wouldn't mind, but Hongshu really didn't mind, raised his head and looked at Lin Wanbai, with a smile in his eyes.
This bright and handsome face makes people cautious and their livers are pounding.
Lin Wanbai gritted her teeth and looked away, how could she be tempted by a fool, Wanbai, do you really only look at your face?
"I asked Master Cao to bring you here."
Hongshu said, with a little smugness in his tone, he could think of this, and it was really difficult for him.
"But, why is Wanbai so fierce today?"
Hongshu had just finished being proud, and immediately became aggrieved again, he had grown so big, even Princess Qi rarely scolded him.
"I ...... Would you like to drink coconut water? ”
Lin Wanbai could feel the eyes of the maids, and in the minds of the maids, they all liked Hong Shizi very much, handsome, and funny Shizi, where to find it.
So, let's coax it first.
"No one can open it."
Hongshu glanced at the coconut that was put aside as an ornament, flattened his mouth, and everyone was helpless, how could she open it.
"You go and find two reed pipes, and you go and get a shovel the size of chopsticks."
If she can't even get a coconut, she's embarrassed to say she's from the 21st century!
The maid in the hall felt curious, but she still complied, and quickly found what Lin Wanbai needed, and Lin Manlu's eyes were also full of curiosity, she held a coconut, knocked and slapped it with her hand, and there was no way to clap her hand when it hurt, and even put it on the corner of the table and knocked it a few times, but there was still no response.
Lin Wanbai hugged the coconut, used a shovel to find the pedicle eye, and with a little force, he chiseled out a hole, inserted the reed pipe, and handed it to Hongshu.
Hongshu looked at Lin Wanbai's skillful appearance, and was slightly stunned, how did a specialty of Qiongzhou, a native of the north, know?
