Chapter 20: Entertain Yourself
It was late at night when they came back from the palace, but Liu Er and Ruan Er were sitting at the gate of the courtyard waiting for them, and they were moved in their hearts, and told the two of them to go to sleep quickly, boil some water and wash up, and finally be able to lie down and rest for a while.
It's good everywhere in ancient times, there is no haze, no gutter oil, no pollution, it's just too hot, how good it would be if there was an air conditioner, even if there was no air conditioner and an electric fan, it was much better than being killed by heat or tired by a hand-cranked fan at night.
It's really boring to think about this ancient dignitary and noble brother, there is no TV, no movie, no DOTA, and I can become a novelty to show a gold and silver jewelry, which has never seen the world.
In the early hours of the morning, I felt much cooler when I heard thunder outside the house and lightning reflected on the windows from time to time. After a night of heat and dryness, I finally had a good night's sleep.
The next day, Liu Er shouted softly beside the bed: "Second Miss, get up, Second Miss?" ”
Reluctantly opening her eyes, Liu Er smiled and said, "Second Miss, it rained a lot last night, and the flowers in the pavilion have bloomed, and the slave maid and Ruan Er set up a swing in the pavilion yesterday, and the second miss will not have to run to the west garden in the future." ”
Swing? Wow, yes, these two little things are really intimate, swinging has always been Xia Chuxin's favorite, but later the longer and fatter it gets, the swings on the market are generally banned from themselves, and after coming here, I accidentally found that there is a swing in the west garden and I go to play every three or five times, but the west garden is too far away from my Lanxi Pavilion, and I have to walk a lot of roads to come and go. Who knew that these two little girls actually took advantage of the fact that they went to the palace yesterday and set up a swing in the courtyard. How can you not be moved?
Wash and dress up three times five divided by two, push the door out, the morning air after the rain is exceptionally fresh, the pavilion is full of pink and white peony on the rotating table, the pavilion pillar is wrapped with the right lily vine, from time to time there is rain flowing down from the top corner of the pavilion, and the newly tied swing is hanging in the middle of the pavilion, can't wait to sit up, Ruan Er gently pushed himself up behind him, smelling the fragrance of the pavilion, and being in the pavilion surrounded by the rain curtain is simply beautiful. After playing for a while, the sky cleared completely, the poisonous sun took over the air again, the stagnant water on the top of the pavilion was dried and no longer dripped down, and this dry day returned.
Xia Chuxin, who wanted to settle in the pavilion like this, was suddenly deflated, and the autumn tiger would be hot to death. I heard that there is an ice book in Princess Dingguo's room, and the whole room is like an air-conditioned room, but unfortunately I am not qualified to use ice. But I can't just be killed by the heat, and I suddenly remembered that I seemed to have read a book before, saying that I could make a rain pavilion by myself. If you think about it, you can use an automatic water wheel to circulate the water from the roof up and down, thus forming an automatic rain pavilion. It's beautiful to think about, and greet Ruan Er and Liu Er.
First of all, it is necessary to install an automatic waterwheel, with the two young ladies in the flower and herb room tenacious and optimistic and love to lay a solid interpersonal foundation, several families finally made the automatic waterwheel under their own command design, the waterwheel was installed on the side of the pavilion, and some water was injected on the top of the pavilion, and the bamboo tube was used as the pipe for water and water. Ruan Er couldn't close her mouth in surprise, and pulled Xia Chuxin and said, "Second Miss, you are so amazing, what is this?" It's so beautiful. ”
"Oh, the second lady is amazing."
"This pavilion is a great place to cool off."
asked Liu Er to take some scraps of money to them, and several family members thanked them for their kindness. After those people went out, Xia Chuxin went into the house and moved the rattan chair out, and then back and forth, and successively moved out the blanket cover, melon seeds and fruits, and then lay down on the recliner steadily.
Ruan Er stood aside, looked at the objects in the pavilion, and asked, "Second Miss, are you going to live in the pavilion permanently?" ”
Xia Chuxin's eyes didn't bother to open, and he said comfortably: "Yes, yes, none of you pay attention to me, just let me stand up here." Liu'er, go and close the courtyard gate, just say Miss, I have a headache and brain fever, and I won't go to the princess and the master of the horse to say hello today. ”
Liu Er obediently closed the courtyard door. Xia Chuxin was beautiful from his heart, and his eyebrows danced happily with a small face, Lao Tzu is going to close the door today, and if he doesn't go anywhere, he will die comfortably in this rain pavilion!
The two girls went to the small kitchen to prepare food, how can they be worthy of their busyness without eating a hot pot in such a beautiful and comfortable environment. But the two girls made it clear that they didn't know what hot pot was, okay, okay, I really have nothing to say about your ignorance. The dishes they like to eat are listed for the two of them to prepare, and they can't be idle, they went to the kitchen to search left and right, and found dried chili peppers and peppers, and put some red dates and wolfberries, a pot of boiling spicy pots on the bottom of the stove, and the clay stove where the medicine was boiled was made into a charcoal fire and served directly to the table, which made the two girls surprised for a while, and called it magical. After a period of hectic dish, the dishes were served, and Liu Er was specially asked to grind sesame seeds to make sauce, all kinds of vegetables, fish fillets, mutton, and saliva was going to flow out just for thinking about it.
Beckoned the two girls to come on the table and prepare to go.
"Second Miss, how do you eat this?" Ruan Er asked as she stared at the hot pot and choked on her saliva.
Put a chopstick mutton into the pot, and the mutton was scalded into a fiery red in an instant, Xia Chuxin said: "Eat shabu, come on, come on, get off the chopsticks, this mutton is tender, hurry up and eat." ”
Ruan Er took the lead in scooping up a chopstick and put it in the sesame sauce bowl, first a small bite, only this bite of the stomach couldn't stop, seeing Ruan Er like this, Liu Er also moved the chopsticks.
Eating fragrantly, a voice suddenly came from the wall, saying: "It turns out that you are hiding at home and stealing your mouth, I really thought you were sick." ”
Through the rain curtain, Xia Chuxin saw a figure neatly turning over and running down the wall towards the rain pavilion.
The person who came to enter from the door left by the rain pavilion was Helian Mo with a surprised face.
A pair of eyes have not left the table since entering the rain pavilion, and Helian Mo sat down automatically without waiting for the invitation of the master. The two girls hurriedly got up and stood crampedly to the side.
"Sit down, sit down, sit down." Xia Chuxin beckoned to the two.
"Sit and sit, I'll see, I'll see." Helian Mo said without moving his eyes.
The two of them sat down again.
"Helian Shizi, I'm about to let you walk on this wall, don't you Beiguan pop and climb the wall everywhere you go through the main gate?" Xia Chuxin was really speechless for this son who loved to climb the wall.
Helian Mo swallowed his saliva, his eyes were still focused on the boiling hot pot, and said: "What's the matter, I came through the front door, it was your housekeeper who said that you were sick and were in the process of closing the door, I was worried about you, so I climbed the wall." ”
"Hehe," seeing that his saliva was about to flow three feet was really funny, so he told Liu Er to go and get another pair of chopsticks.
The dishes and chopsticks were served, Helian Mo stretched the chopsticks into the pot while observing the movements of the three of them, and said, "Oh, Xinxin, you are so polite, I am actually worried about you, come and see you." ”
"Thank you so much, Helian Shizi, look at me with two arms and two hands, one is not good-looking and is about to get into my hot pot." Xia Chuxin quipped.
Helian Mo raised his head at this time, smiled, and said, "Where are two arms and two hands, I have a full heart here." ”
"Eat yours, Flim Flam Tongue."
"Hot pot? It's really amazing, a delicious pot on top of the charcoal fire, and it's really a hot pot. Xinxin, where did you know this way of eating, it's delicious, it's delicious. ”
"It's delicious, what do you do with so much."
A binge meal, perhaps because Helian Mo was inconvenient here, the two girls quit early. Helian Mo didn't forget to say to the two girls: "You're full so soon?" ”
Xia Chuxin rolled his eyes helplessly, I'm full of you here.
Helian Mo kept his head down and ate wildly, and only raised his head after a while before he said, "Oh, why is it raining all the time in your gazebo?" ”
"You just found out about your feelings?"
Helian Mo nodded, looking cute.
The world of foodies is really not understood by ordinary people.
