Chapter Seventy-Seven: Simple Eating

|->Chapter 77 Simple Eating

Jin Ying took the wet towel and wiped his face and hands, and the housekeeper gently covered Yan Yong with the cloak on the chair, Yan Yong slept soundly and snored, Jin Ying and the housekeeper both laughed together, and Jin Ying laughed and scolded: "Young people are so happy that they sleep soundly everywhere, unlike us old men who can't sleep all night." ”

Jin Ying handed the wet wipes in his hand to the housekeeper, and the housekeeper took the wipes and said, "Yes, we were like Lord Yan at that time, where to lie down and fall asleep, now it is not good, we are already dying old people as the years have passed." ”

"Butler, there are still people in the kitchen who haven't eaten and come back, and I'm a little hungry." Jin Ying said, and the housekeeper said with some difficulty: "Master, I'm afraid there are only some cold steamed buns in the kitchen this time, why don't I call someone up and get you some?" ”

Jin Ying waved his hand and said, "Forget it, if you don't bother people, I'm afraid that they will all fall asleep, you go to the kitchen and bring the steamed buns." The housekeeper said, "Master, I think it's better to ask someone to get up and cook a bowl of dumplings for you, it's all ready-made and just boil hot water." In such a cold day, the steamed buns are probably frozen like stones. ”

Jin Ying said: "It's okay, you go and get it, I have my own way." The housekeeper had to go back to the kitchen to get the steamed buns.

The housekeeper quickly returned to the house with the steamed buns, and when he pushed the door open, he still muttered, "It's so cold." As he spoke, he put the steamed bun in front of Jin Ying, and then took out a clay pot from his arms with his other hand, and said to Jin Ying with a smile: "Master, jujube paste." Rub this on top of the steamed bun and eat it to taste more fragrant. "Oh?" Jin Ying took the clay pot suspiciously, opened the lid, sniffed it close to his nose and said, "The aroma is refreshing, enough to taste." As he spoke, he carefully placed the jar on the table next to him, and Jin Ying took a steamed bun and broke it in half with his hand and put it on the cover of the brazier and roasted it.

The charcoal fire was burning vigorously, and the cold and hard steamed buns were placed on the cover, and after a while, a hot air burst out, and the sweet wheat fragrance was emitted from the air, and the wheat fragrance spread out in all directions, filling the whole room.

Yan Yong, who was sleeping on the side, unconsciously moved his nose, this fragrance was a little unreal, Yan Yong couldn't help but inhale hard, Yan Yong's sleeping movements were seen by Jin Ying and the housekeeper on the side, and the housekeeper snickered softly on the side.

Jin Ying took half of the baked golden and crispy steamed bun from the cover and put it in front of Yan Yong's nose, and then slowly moved forward, Yan Yong in his sleep closed his eyes, and his upper body moved forward involuntarily, as if sleepwalking, Jin Ying took the steamed bun away, Yan Yong's upper body fell down as if he had lost any support, and when he saw that Yan Yong was about to fall heavily to the ground, Jin Ying stretched out a foot in front of Yan Yong.

Yan Yong was blocked by Jin Ying, Yan Yong stopped the fall and woke up from his sleep, Yan Yong saw that he was holding Jin Ying's feet tightly and was so frightened that he quickly let go, and immediately stood aside and bowed his waist and didn't dare to breathe.

The housekeeper had to hold back his laughter when he saw Yan Yong's "lost soul" on the side, or Jin Ying asked first, "Woke up?" Yan Yong replied, "Wake up." Knowing that he had lost his words, he said, "Oh, no. Originally, Yan Yong was here to wait for you, Lord Chief, but somehow he fell asleep. Yan Yong saw that he was still wearing Jin Ying's cloak and was about to take it off, Jin Ying said: "Okay, just put it on when it's cold, don't take it off again." Yan Yong said, "Thank you, 'Lord Chief'. Kim Young said, "Don't stand and sit down." Yan Yong trembled and found a chair to sit down.

Soon after sitting down, Jin Ying threw a piece of hot steamed bread to Yan Yong, Yan Yong picked up the steamed bread and broke a small piece and put it in his mouth to chew, thinking that this smell was the same as the one in the dream just now, and stuffed a large piece, the housekeeper picked up a piece of steamed bread from the cover and scooped some jujube paste with a bamboo spoon and smeared it on it, and then handed it to Jin Ying.

Jin Ying took the steamed bun and took a bite and asked Yan Yong, "Do you want to wipe some?" Yan Yong shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Lord Chief, I can't get used to it being too sweet." Jin Ying didn't speak, and ate steamed buns, Yan Yong said: "I went to Liu Qing today, Qingyu has recovered, and I can bring it into the palace tomorrow." Jin Ying nodded and said, "Well, that's good." I hope Qingyu will not disappoint us, if that is the case, it will be unimaginable in the future. There was a bit of untouchability in the words.

Yan Yong finished eating half of the steamed buns, got up and said goodbye, and said to Jin Ying: "Since the 'Chief' has nothing to do, Yan Yong will go back, it is not early, you can rest early." Jin Ying said: "Don't go back, now that the door of the palace is closed in the middle of the night, just sleep here." Yan Yong looked at the sky and remembered that the palace gate had been closed at this time, and he could no longer enter the palace.

Jin Ying picked up wet wipes and wiped her hands and said to Yan Yong: "You can stay here tonight, and go to Liu Biao's place early tomorrow morning, I won't let you sleep in the house." Yan Yong said: "Yan Yong is all on the orders of the adults. ”

Jin Ying then said to the housekeeper: "Butler, you wait a while to remove this table so that Yan Yong can sleep, add some charcoal to the brazier and don't let it go out, and then go to the house to pick up the bed and quilt, and don't let people freeze when it's cold." The housekeeper said, "Don't worry, sir, I'll do it later." After Jin Ying finished explaining, he got up and walked out of the door, and said to Jin Ying respectfully, "Thank you, 'Lord Chief'." ”

After Jin Ying left, only Yan Yong and the housekeeper were left in the living room, and the housekeeper came to the soft couch to prepare to remove the table to the side, the table was made of high-quality redwood wood, and it was very difficult for the housekeeper to move. Seeing this, Yan Yong hurriedly stepped forward to help the handle, and the housekeeper saw Yan Yong coming over to help the handle and praised him: "No wonder the master is so good to you, there are not many warm-hearted people like you now." Yan Yong said: "It's nothing, anyway, if you're idle, I'll help you when I see that you can't move." The butler said, "You have been too modest." Then the two of them worked together to remove the table to the side.

The housekeeper leaned the brazier against the soft couch again, and the housekeeper said: "Lord Yan, do you know that the master rarely leaves people to rest in the house, just because you have lived here many times, and the master is optimistic about you." Yan Yong said with some loss: "I hope." ”

Yan Yong sat on the soft couch and the housekeeper said, "You sit down first, I'll go and bring the quilt over." Yan Yong said: "I'm tired of the housekeeper." The butler said, "It should be so that it is not troublesome." So saying, he went to the house and got the futon.

Yan Yong leaned on the soft couch for a while, stretched out his hand to cover the wind on his body, closed his eyes and fell asleep, the housekeeper held the two bedding and pushed the door in, seeing that Yan Yong had fallen asleep, so he had to gently lean forward and cover the two quilts on Yan Yong's body, originally the housekeeper wanted to cover a bed and a bed was underneath, but now he had to give up, and the housekeeper added a few pieces of charcoal to the brazier according to Jin Ying's instructions before leaving before turning off the lights in the living room.

Yan Yong got up when the day was just light, folded the futon and put it on the soft couch and went out, Yan Yong was worried about Jin Ying's delivery, he didn't pay attention to the hour at this moment, buried his head and led the horse from behind to open the door, there were few passers-by on the street, and even the shop that usually got up early to sell wontons did not see a shadow, Yan Yong wondered why everyone got up so late today or he never got up so early.
