Chapter 205: Snowflake Cheese

Zhao Xiu was stunned by Gao Zhen's word "verbose", and he felt unspeakable grievances in his heart. She is also thinking about him, the clothes are made according to the style of summer clothes that young people in the south like to wear, which may not be in line with the taste of the people in the capital, and it is made loose, she is afraid that his thin bamboo pole-like figure will go out in this loose robe, and he will be laughed at, so she reminded her, which is also the meaning of modesty, he actually thinks she is verbose? !

Zhao Xiu sat in a muffled voice and didn't speak, obviously the room was ventilated and cool, but she still felt hot in her heart, so she picked up the fan on the side and fanned the wind.

Gao Zhen put the clothes back into the original baggage, shouted at the window, looked back and saw her puffing up, was silent for a while, and asked, "Are you angry?" ”

"Nope!" Zhao Xiu replied firmly. How could she be angry? How could she be angry? Why is she angry?

Gao Zhen was silent for a while, and said dryly: "The clothes are very good, the materials are good, the color is good, the style is comfortable to look at, and the workmanship is good, I like it very much, what do you care about others?" If someone says it's not good-looking, it's because he has bad eyes. ”

Zhao Xiu had to admit that she was comforted, although Gao Zhen's words sounded a little domineering and unreasonable, but she was happy to hear it, and the fan in her hand slowly stopped. She turned to Gao Zhen and said, "I'm very happy that you like the clothes I made, but if others really don't look good, don't scold people." I don't know much about the fashion in Beijing, and the Jiangnan-style clothes I am used to making are a little different from the tastes of the people in Beijing. Maybe people just think that the clothes I make don't conform to the customs of Beijing? It's a big deal, I'll make you something that everyone thinks looks good in the future. ”

Gao Zhen's heart became happy again, and his face showed a little bit: "Is this so?" All right. You can make me a new outfit every season in the future, and you can also practice needlework by the way, I don't mind if you use me to practice. ”

Zhao Xiu smiled and nodded. I hesitated halfway through. She was a little confused, did she take a job for herself just now? A new outfit every season? Gao Zhen didn't say it before!

At this time, Yanyu sent two teas in with a smile, interrupting her train of thought. Yanyu didn't see her for a few days, so he specially greeted her, and gave her two small silver bowls: "This is a newly made snowflake cheese in the kitchen, so it's just right to eat on a hot day." Shizi also try it, didn't you love to eat it in previous years? ”

Sulflake cool is a cold drink to eat in summer. It is said that it came out of the court of the former Ming Dynasty, that is, ice cubes were broken into minced pieces, and honey, preserved fruits, sour plum juice and other things were mixed into a paste. The recipe of Quang Binh Royal Mansion uses thick sour plum juice. Soaked with honey and milk, sprinkled with raisins and crushed peanuts, it tasted sweet and sour, and chewy. Zhao Xiu scooped a few bites with a small silver spoon and ate it. I fell in love immediately. I just think it's better than ice cream.

Gao Zhen saw that she was eating sweetly, paused, looked at his bowl of snowflake cheese that he had just eaten two bites, put down the spoon, and pushed it in front of her.

Zhao Xiu was stunned: "For me?" ”

Gao Zhen nodded, and then tried to put on a nonchalant look: "I've grown up, and I don't like to eat this sweet and greasy thing anymore." ”

Zhao Xiu glanced at him with disgust: "If you don't like sweet, just ask the kitchen to put less honey and preserved fruits." Just put aside some more dried fruit and chop it. Eat this in the summer to cool off, and you can also cool down. I'm eating delicious though. Don't dare to eat more, this thing is made of ice, and eating too much will make you upset. "That's true, she just needs to eat her little bowl. If she really wants to eat it, and there is ice sent by Gao Zhen at home, can't she make it herself? You can also put whatever you like to eat.

Besides...... Zhao Xiu glanced at Gao Zhen's bowl of snowflake cheese. That's what he had eaten, even if he was still a child, how could she take it from what others had eaten? He wasn't acquainted with her yet, and she wasn't that greedy.

Gao Zhen made a straight face, reluctantly pulled the bowl back, ate another spoonful, and suddenly felt that this snowflake cheese was not as sweet as he remembered, maybe he really grew up, no longer like a child before, and still ate this sweet and sour thing.

He rewarded Yanyu with half a bowl of snowflake cheese, Yanyu had just packed his clothes, adjusted the position of the ice basin again, and was about to go out, when he suddenly won the reward, and his face immediately smiled: "Xie Shizi reward." It's just that the son of the world loved to eat this the most in the past, and even if he grows up, he can continue to eat it. The emperors and ladies in the palace also love to eat, and this is not something that only children eat. If they didn't want to eat something too sweet, the slave told them to make something unsweet. ”

Gao Zhen nodded stiffly, and Yanyu took the burden and the small bowl back to the second courtyard. Zhao Xiu ate snowflake cheese, looked at Gao Zhen's uncomfortable appearance, and asked in a low voice: "Actually, you still love to eat, right?" ”

Gao Zhen straightened his waist, shook the sleeves of his wide plain gauze robe, and sat up straight: "Nonsense, I'm such a big person, and I still covet that bite to eat?" ”

Zhao Xiu lowered his head and pursed his lips and snickered, Gao Zhen was obviously still a small and tender face, but he stood up and acted like an adult, and fell into her eyes, how cute he looked, but he himself was unconscious.

Gao Zhen tilted his head to look at her, his brows furrowed so that he could kill a fly: "What are you laughing at?" ”

Zhao Xiu hurriedly suppressed his laughter, raised his head and shook his head innocently: "I didn't laugh at anything, you were dazzled." Then when he frowned and wanted to get to the bottom of it, he quickly opened the topic: "By the way, my brother was involved in the imperial history, I heard that you helped a lot, and the matter was solved smoothly and quickly, and the emperor also specially sent someone to comfort my brother, rewarded him with a lot of things, and told him not to worry." I want to thank you, if it weren't for you, maybe things would have been much more troublesome. ”

Gao Zhen's thoughts were immediately taken away, and his expression softened: "What is this?" It's just a casual remark. Could it be that I can still watch your brother get entangled in those annoying things? ”

Zhao Xiu wasn't sure whether this "annoying thing" was referring to the Niu family or the imperial historians, so she decided not to delve into it, she just smiled and said: "You sent two carts of ice to our family, and asked me to make a piece of clothing as a thank you gift, but you helped my brother block back the imperial history, but he didn't say a word." If my brother hadn't asked someone to inquire, I wouldn't know what you did. ”

Gao Zhen's gaze drifted away: "What kind of credit is this?" It's just a matter of words. There are always some people in this world who are like dog skin plasters. You can't tear it open. But if you don't tear it up, you won't have to live. It took a lot of effort to tear it open at my house, and I saw that your house also had dog skin plasters stuck to your body. Naturally, I have to help tear it up. Your family will not be at peace, I ...... Our family didn't feel good when they looked at it. ”

Zhao Xiu was greatly moved, she understood that what he said was about the Zhong family, and she wanted to come to the Zhong family to pester the Guangping Palace, and the Niu family did everything possible to cut a large piece of meat from their second room, which was really similar. Now the Zhong family is gone, just waiting for the case to be decided. is about to return to his hometown in despair, but Niu's is still jumping. This time, thanks to Gao Zhen's help, the new emperor spoke. Their family no longer has to care about the discussion of the outside world, and when they are restrained in the face of the ancestors and grandchildren of the Niu family, they are really relieved a lot.

She smiled and thanked again: "Anyway, I want to thank you for this for you." Maybe it's just a gesture. But our family has been able to live a quiet life since then, thanks to you. Do you have something you want? I did it to thank you? ”

Gao Zhen's gaze suddenly drifted back: "There is really nothing to say about this kind of thing, and you don't have to thank me specially." But......" he paused, "I wouldn't mind if you were going to make me a new one." ”

Zhao Xiu couldn't cry or laugh a little, could it be that she gave him the clothes she made herself, and wronged him? It was obviously his own request before, why did he speak so awkwardly?

Finished eating the snowflake cheese. After chatting for a while, it was time for Zhao Xiu to go back. Gao Zhen got up to send him off. When I left the palace. Zhao Xiu noticed that the people waiting in the second gate and the people who were dressed in plain clothes at the door to welcome the guests, many of them had changed their faces, and there were some doubts in her heart, when King Guangping and Gao Zhen were still staying in the palace, for nearly a month, these people were in two shifts, and she knew all of them, why did she change so many people now?

She asked Gao Zhen casually, but Gao Zhen only smiled slightly: "It's nothing, the original person was transferred to another place on an errand." Now that the person in charge of the palace has been replaced by me, I naturally want to use my own manpower. ”

Zhao Xiu nodded confusedly, but only woke up halfway through the car. If you change to another family, change your family, and use your own henchmen to do things, this is a matter of course. For example, when his grandfather died, his grandmother, who was originally in charge of the house, stepped down from the position of the main mother, and the new Jiannan Hou Niu immediately let his cronies squeeze out Wang Siping's position as an old man. But the situation in the Guangping palace is different, the former head of the house is Gao Zhen's mother, he is now going to take over the housework, the princess's manpower should be his help, how can it be replaced? Unless they have created an obstacle for Gao Zhen.

Thinking about the different attitudes of the maidservants who were waiting by the princess's side to the Zhong family, Zhao Xiu felt as if he understood something. She lifted the bamboo curtain on the carriage window and secretly glanced at Gao Zhen, who was riding a horse outside, thinking that this child was not easy.

Gao Zhen seemed to realize it and looked back. Zhao Xiu was caught, smiled a little embarrassedly, and hurriedly put down the curtain and sat down.

Gao Zhen's face turned slightly red, and he walked for a while before he regained his attention, manipulated the horse under him, and headed briskly in the direction of Gulou Street.

When he arrived at the two-bedroom mansion, Zhao Xiu planned to invite Gao Zhen into the house for a cup of tea, but Gao Zhen didn't respond, and said that he would go back to the palace when it was not early. ”

Zhao Xiu couldn't cry or laugh again, thinking that wasn't it just a new dress? Why is Gao Zhen's dignified prince so obsessed with one or two new clothes? It's not like he didn't have no one to make him clothes.

Carrying a few fresh fruits from the King of Guangping into the door, Zhao Xiu saw her grandmother Zhang and her brother Zhao Wei both talking with a smile on their faces, and she was a little curious: "Grandmother, brother, what is so happy?" ”

Zhang smiled: "Are you back?" I heard the porter say, it was the prince who sent you back, why don't you invite someone to come in and sit down? ”

Zhao Xiu pouted: "He refused to come in by himself." But the two of us know each other so well, so we don't need to be so polite. What was Grandmother happy about? ”

Zhao Wei told her with a smile: "It's a letter sent by Brother Qixuan, they have already arrived in Tongzhou, and it is expected that Ming'er will be able to enter Beijing." ”

Zhao Xiu was suddenly very surprised: "Really? (To be continued......)
