Chapter 245: A Cup of Tea (1)
After Chen Fei was busy releasing those government prisoners, Chen Fei returned to his home.
"Brother Chen Fei, please drink tea to relieve your fatigue! In the past few days, you have been busy with the affairs of the government, and you are also very tired, you can drink a cup of tea and rest. Tea can help calm the nerves and help sleep, and drinking it is beneficial. Li Wanrou took the initiative to say.
And Chen Fei immediately asked: "Where does the tea come from?" Our family shouldn't have bought tea! ”
"It was sent by a person surnamed Cui outside, saying that it was particularly fresh and could be used to make tea, and it was a new variety this year. So I'll cook it for you myself. Li Wanrou said.
Chen Fei heard that it was sent by someone surnamed Cui, so Chen Fei immediately knew that this should be sent by Cui Xiuxiu, but he didn't expect that he would still send tea to himself. These tea leaves that look slightly green should be this year's new tea, according to this period, the tea leaves are all fresh, and they are all boiled together with various ingredients. And Chen Fei actually couldn't get used to drinking these boiled teas, he felt that this kind of tea tasted too strange, because this kind of tea had not been fried. In this era, no method of roasting tea was invented, so Chen Fei couldn't get used to it.
"You made this tea yourself?" Chen Fei asked.
Li Wanrou nodded and said, "I cooked it with Lizhen." ”
"Oh my God, you two little girls actually made a fire yourself and made me tea?" Chen Fei was surprised.
And Li Wanrou immediately said again: "Yes! Brother Chen drink it, if it's delicious, I'll continue to cook it for you in the future! ”
"What a fart!" Chen Fei immediately scolded.
Chen Fei continued: "You little girl, oh no, two little girls, actually took the initiative to make a fire to boil water and then make tea, how dangerous it is!" First of all, it's dangerous to start a fire, and if you accidentally set the house on fire, then we're really homeless. It's still good, if you burn yourself to the fire. So what do you do? As for the hot water, how hot is the hot water, what if you two little girls are scalded by the hot water? Also, what should you do if you are smoked by the fire for cooking, and the smoke is burning? There is no honeycomb coal here, this Shandong still uses firewood, and the firewood is all fireworks, are you not afraid of being smoked? Don't do that next time! ”
Chen Fei is now incarnated as an elder. I feel very scared of Li Wanrou and Li Lizhen's unauthorized cooking. After all, he was also worried about what happened to these two Loli, especially if something went wrong with Li Lizhi, then Li Shimin still had to cut himself? So of course Chen Fei didn't want them to have problems, and he didn't want them to cook by themselves when they were so young, which was obviously too dangerous. This is what any elder in the family is worried about, and Chen Fei was the same in the orphanage at that time. Therefore, Chen Fei is also very concerned about this Li Wanrou and Li Lizhi now, if there is any problem when they make a fire, it will be miserable. Especially when you're not watching at home. That's even more dangerous.
When Li Wanrou heard this, her eyes began to redden, and she looked like she was about to shed tears. And when Chen Fei saw this situation, he immediately knew that his speech was a little heavy. immediately came to Li Wanrou's side.
"Wanrou, don't be angry, I'm doing this for your good! Since your mother asked me to take care of you, I can't let you have any accidents! Chen Fei said.
Li Wanrou said helplessly: "Brother Chen Fei, you have done so much. Then of course I have to repay you! If it weren't for you, I would have died in Xuanwumen a long time ago, how could I have survived until now? And you're going to be very busy as an official right now. So what's wrong with me helping you do something? So I personally came to make tea for Brother Chen Fei to drink, which is a little bit of my heart. ”
"Wanrou, don't do this in the future, you're only eight years old, you don't have to do these things!" Chen Fei said.
Li Wanrou shook her head and said, "I am no longer the county lord of the past, now I am just a girl from an ordinary family." Girls from ordinary families have to take on housework for the family when they are six or seven years old, and it is common for them to cook on a fire. So now I take the initiative to make tea for Brother Chen Fei, what's not to do? What's more, Brother Chen Fei has done so much for me, shouldn't I take care of you? ”
Chen Fei ignored the difference between ancient and later generations. In ancient times, children were six or seven years old when they began to help the family with housework, and in later generations, because of the doting of their parents, many of them couldn't even cook when they were more than ten years old. Chen Fei was also negligent about this for a while, and Chen Fei in later generations only really helped cook in the orphanage canteen when he was fourteen or fifteen years old. But in the army, he was an ordinary soldier, not a soldier in the cooking class, so he didn't need to cook. As for the time after the crossing, he was still in the army, and there were others to help cook, so he didn't realize that children in this era had to help their families when they were five or six years old.
The main reason is actually that Chen Fei didn't treat Li Wanrou as an ordinary girl, after all, she was also Li Jiancheng's daughter no matter how she said it, the original Tang County Lord. If you want Chen Fei to treat him as an ordinary girl completely, this is obviously impossible. Therefore, Chen Fei has never asked Li Wanrou to help him do something, which makes Li Wanrou always more leisurely, and she is still the role of the eldest lady in the past.
"Wanrou, you don't have to do these things in the future. It's not that our family can't afford to hire a maid, so I'll invite a maid over in two days! Chen Fei said.
Li Wanrou immediately said, "Shouldn't I take care of you?" ”
"You're too young to do these menial jobs! Well, that's it, no need to say anything more. Don't do any of these things in the future, I'll hire a servant soon." Chen Fei said.
"Oh-" Li Wanrou replied helplessly.
Li Wanrou then raised the teacup and said, "Brother Chen Fei, you can drink this cup of tea, this is also a little bit of my heart!" ”
Chen Fei looked at the tea with a lot of ingredients, and he was also a little helpless. But after all, this is Li Wanrou's little heart, and Chen Fei is not easy to refuse. Chen Fei picked up the teacup and drank it, feeling that there were all kinds of strange smells, but he couldn't get used to it. However, Chen Fei still let himself swallow it, after all, if he didn't accept it, it would be too hurtful.
Seeing Chen Fei drink the tea, Li Wanrou relaxed her frowning brows. (To be continued......)
