Chapter 356: The Fool Has Opened His Mind
Putting it aside, Xu Hui watched quietly, watching Li Zheng skillfully make a fire and cook, kill fish and cut vegetables, and fry meat.
Li Zheng made a bowl of tofu and fish soup, and said to Xu Hui who was standing behind him: "I'm used to it alone, and I like to do everything by myself, and I won't tell you that even the inner library is washed by myself." ”
"Poof......" Xu Hui couldn't hold back her laughter.
Li Zheng continued: "And I don't have to whisper all day long here, and I won't salute all day long, you also know that I was born in the bitter cold since I was a child, and I am not used to the rules of large families, you don't follow the rules too much, you are not allowed to bow and not to speak low, this is my rule." ”
"Understood." Xu Hui nodded.
Li Zheng put the vegetables in the pot and stir-fried and said, "After that, I will find a way to give you something to do, and you can learn to settle accounts." ”
Xu Hui said: "I will settle the account." ”
"Well, I happen to be short of accounts, and you will be responsible for managing my accounts in the future, and I have a very large amount of money here." After Li Zheng finished frying the vegetables, he said: "Although the days of counting money and cramping in your hands every day are very good, they are also very painful. ”
Xu Hui nodded and wrote down Li Zheng's words.
"You also have to learn some arithmetic, learn how to use the abacus, and when necessary, you have to help the village aunts to work, do some farm work, if you don't dislike farm work."
"We will do whatever Chang'an Ling tells us to do, we are Chang'an Ling's people."
Li Zheng skillfully stir-fried the vegetables in the pot with a shovel and then said: "Those palace maids, you will take care of them in the future, food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and the village will arrange them. ”
"Understood." Xu Hui said.
What kind of man can cook so skillfully.
In Xu Hui's cognition, these things should be done by a woman in a family.
Li Zheng said that the kitchen was dirty and messy, and let him go out.
It is said that a gentleman is far away from cooking, and it seems that as rumors in Chang'an, Li Zheng is not a gentleman.
But looking at Li Zheng today, I feel that this man is not a gentleman, but more like a gentleman.
Xu Hui observed Li Zheng, and the first feeling this man gave him was respect.
It's a good feeling, some are informal, and some are willing to surrender their identity.
Although the time in the palace is not long, Xu Hui has heard the story between Li Zheng and Princess Changle.
Xu Hui said: "Don't hide the Chang'an Order, in the hearts of many palace maids in the palace, the matter between Chang'an Ling and Princess Changle is regarded as a good story. ”
Seeing that Li Zheng didn't speak, Xu Hui had no choice but to stop talking.
Li Zheng is a son of a poor family, and Princess Changle is the most painful princess of His Majesty today.
The two knew each other again, and Xu Hui knew since she was a child that marriage was the order of her parents.
Many girls look forward to such feelings and family affairs, but they dare not think about it.
The meal was served, and Li Zheng was busy for an hour, making more than ten dishes.
The millet in the pot is already cooked.
Li Zheng took out the chili pepper and said to the group of palace maids, "Do you eat chili peppers?" ”
The palace ladies bowed their heads and looked timid.
Li Zheng felt that he was a little abrupt again, put the chili pepper on the table and said, "If you want, you can add your own, you can eat." ”
A group of palace maids still stood and didn't dare to squeak, nor did they dare to look up.
They are very restrained, and it seems that they can't let go of it for a long time because of the discipline in the palace.
Li Zheng said to them again: "Sit down and eat." ”
The ladies were still on the move, and they were constantly standing.
glanced at Xu Hui on the side, it seemed that she was not so afraid of life, they were all a group of little girls, and they were not familiar with the world.
was about to be sent to the palace at such a young age, and Li Zheng once again despised Li Shimin.
"Xu Hui, you arrange for them to eat, and you will take care of them in the future." Li Zheng simply didn't care.
Xu Hui nodded and explained to the palace maids, and then they sat down to eat around the table.
At first, they only ate a few bites, and after a while, these palace maids ate them happily.
Xu Hui tasted it carefully, just like the rumors in the palace, Li Zheng's food here was delicious.
It is no wonder that His Royal Highness the King of Shu, His Royal Highness the King of Wei, and His Royal Highness the King of Jin all like to come to Jingyang, including His Majesty today.
Li Zheng sat down again and let out a long sigh.
Li Chongyi said: "It's time for me to go back to Chang'an." ”
"Brother Chongyi, walk slowly."
Li Zheng found the aunt in the village and brought some clean clothes from the village.
The palace maids' clothes are very thin and a little too revealing.
It's easy to get angry when you look at it.
It was only after this group of palace maids had eaten and changed their clothes that they looked a lot more comfortable.
A teenager walking in the village with a group of girls behind him is always a little conspicuous, and the villagers all look at it curiously, talking to each other about where so many girls behind Li Zheng came from.
Send these girls to the academy and let Da Niu teach them how to use abacus and learn some simple math.
In the future, they had to settle accounts, and there were not many empty houses in the village, so Li Zheng had to settle all of them in his new house first.
This new house has been built, which is the largest house in the village that the villagers lived in when they got married.
The mansion was also built in the style of the big mansion in Chang'an.
It's enough for thirty girls.
"Let them get familiar with the environment first, and then let them follow the aunts to do farm work." Li Zheng said to several aunts.
Seeing a few aunts looking at him strangely, Li Zheng explained: "These are all rewarded by His Majesty, work for me." ”
The aunt smiled strangely: "We are finally enlightened." ”
Another aunt said, "That's it, take a few more girls, so that you can leave a queen for our village." ”
"It's a big deal to stay for a while."
"A few more."
……
Listening to the discussion of this group of aunts, Li Zheng couldn't stand it.
was walking back to his horse pen, but was stopped by Li Daxiong.
Li Daxiong said, "Go to the house and talk." ”
"Okay." Li Zheng nodded.
Back at home, the father and son sat opposite each other, Li Daxiong looked at his son and said, "After this year, you will also be sixteen years old." ”
Li Zheng nodded and said, "I know." ”
Li Daxiong continued: "At the age of sixteen, you should also be an adult. ”
Li Zheng still nodded.
Li Daxiong asked in a low voice, "Where did those girls come from?" ”
The news in the village is actually quite closed, and the villagers generally don't inquire about Chang'an.
What happened in Chang'an is not usually known to the villagers.
Li Zheng explained to Li Daxiong: "I don't know what's wrong, Your Majesty is in a good mood and has rewarded me with more than 30 palace maids. ”
"Rewarded?" Li Daxiong asked rhetorically.
Li Zheng nodded.
Li Daxiong touched the stubble on his chin and said, "Seeing that you are about to marry a princess, Your Majesty still gives you so many palace maids?" ”
Li Zheng scratched the back of his head and explained, "Maybe Your Majesty drank too much." ”
