Fang Yue finished painting the red maple picture of the distant mountains, and announced loudly to the two sisters, "I have decided to embroider this picture." ”

Ji Ran understood Fang Yue after all, and asked with a smile: "Do you want the embroidery lady to help?" ”

Fang Yue immediately said: "Of course! I'm going to embroider a screen, four feet wide and six feet long. ”

Huabao Xiangjun said: "Isn't it better to embroider it yourself?" ”

Ji Ran explained with a smile: "She completed an embroidered screen, and it is estimated that it will take three years to complete. Yueyue's embroidery skills still need to be honed, and if you want to embroider perfectly, you can only embroider with the help of the embroiderer. ”

Huabao Xiangjun said: "You can use this painting to hone your embroidery skills!" ”

Fang Yue thought about it and thought it was okay, "I'll embroider one, and I'll embroider one for the embroiderer." I think it must be a great accomplishment to embroider it myself. ”

Mama came over and said, "Miss, the second master and Fang Gongzi have returned to the other courtyard." Mrs. has prepared a grill, do you want to go back? ”

Huabao Xiangjun nodded with a smile, and Fang Yue told Mama that the painting was not yet dry, and asked Mama to take someone to carry the easel back.

In the gazebo in the back garden, the barbecue shelf has been set up, Chang'an put the mutton slices on the iron plate, wait for the meat slices to roll up, turn the meat slices over with tongs and roast them slightly, sprinkle with salt, cumin powder, and chili peppers.

"Second master, please use it." Chang'an put the slices of meat on a plate.

Zhao Qinghong said: "I didn't expect Wen Rui to have such skills. ”

Chang'an smiled: "My father's roasted mutton is better, this kind of iron plate barbecue, I'm not familiar with it, I hope it's not unpalatable!" ”

Zhao Qinghong corrected: "It's roasted meat." Isn't the roast mutton that Wen Rui said about being grilled on an iron plate? ”

Huabao Xiangjun stood far away from the grill, "Is it iron plate grilled meat?" ”

Ji Ran immediately said: "I'll ask someone to bring a tile charcoal basin, let's burn the tile meat!" ”

Tile roasting is to put a round porcelain lid that looks like a porcelain pot lid on the fire and heat it, and then put the meat slices on the porcelain lid to grill.

Huabao Xiangjun skillfully brushed the oil on the tile porcelain cover, put the meat slices, gently swept a layer of honey with a wool brush, and after baking on both sides, put the meat slices on the plate.

"Yueyue, how about trying my craft?" Huabao Xiangjun pushed the plate in front of Fang Yue.

Ji Ran put the sauce dish in her hand and motioned for her to dip the sauce and eat it.

Both sides were roasting, and the maids brought the roast meat on both sides together. Fang Yue felt that the teppanyaki barbecue was more flavorful, but the tile barbecue was more tender, and each had its own merits, food! Eat it if it's delicious!

Chang'an ate a lot of roasted pork, but Zhao Qinghong only ate iron plate meat roasted in Chang'an. Lunch ended a little awkwardly in the midst of play.

Fang Yue said that he wanted to wire the pattern of the new flower.

"You don't have to go back to the city, there is also an embroidery room here." Ji Ran took everyone to the embroidery room.

Chang'an is used to seeing his sister's embroidery room, the embroidery thread on a wall, in Chang'an's opinion, this is the arrangement of various shades of color, and it is easier to line the picture.

Huabao Xiangjun exclaimed: "Sure enough, it is the owner of the embroidery brocade workshop." ”

Ji Ran explained: "It's because Yueyue's embroidery patterns are always of different shades, and the wiring has become a problem. This method was conceived by Yueyue, and I made one in the same way. ”

Fang Yue looked at his brother and said, "I have newly painted a screen embroidery, brother, let's start!" ”

Chang An looked at the easel, walked to the desk, laid out a blank piece of paper, nodded at his sister, and then carefully copied the corner of the embroidery.

The drawing marked with the word No. 1 on the back of the picture was handed out, and Huabao Xiangjun asked puzzledly: "Why is there always a blank space?" ”

Fang Yue explained: "Because of the color matching, write the required color number in this area, so leave a little space to mark. ”

Comparing the drawings, Ji Ran and Huabao Xiangjun began to look for embroidery threads, and Fang Yue used a pen to record the color number on the picture.

Zhao Qinghong followed in, and whenever Ji Ran and Huabao Xiangjun had embroidery thread that they couldn't get, he would help reach out and take it off, wait for the two of them to cut a strand of embroidery thread, and then help put the embroidery thread back into the corresponding grid.

Everyone was very focused, Ji Ran checked the embroidery sample, found the embroidery thread of the same color in the embroidery lattice on the wall, handed it to Huabao Xiangjun, she glued the embroidery thread on the white paper, and marked the color number below.

Fang Yue was busy helping his brother draw pictures, and he also had to help Ji Ran find embroidery threads, and he was dancing through the house like a butterfly.

When an embroidery sample was finally completed, Huabao Xiangjun asked: "Why don't you give me an embroidery sample with a line drawing?" ”

Chang'an explained for his sister: "Because of the embroidery of the Xiangjun, it needs to be embroidered with fox fur and gray rabbit fur, and my sister does not have suitable animal fur at hand. ”

"Do you want to embroider with fox fur?" Huabao Xiangjun was a little annoyed, he shouldn't have been busy wiring the embroidery sample, he should have asked Yueyue first.

Fang Yue said with a smile: "Sister Hua wants to embroider vividly, the best embroidery method is to use animal hair, fox hair is the best." Cats play with shadows, different shades, may not be easy to choose embroidery thread. If animal hair is used, it may be difficult to get the right one. ”

Huabao Xiangjun said: "I will find a way." "When she saw this wall, she was already inspired.

Fang Yue squinted his eyes and smiled. Huabao Xiangjun gave her the feeling that she was a little awkward. When the meat is barbecued, the troubles are smoked to the clothes, and the body has a smell.

When gluing the embroidery thread, I used three handkerchiefs to wipe my hands, and I didn't seem to like the feeling of sticky paste.

But whether it is barbecue or pasting embroidery threads, she is very serious about it.

It's getting late, and I'm going to live in the Red Leaves Courtyard today, and Zhao Qinghong said that he wants to account for the grain accounts. Fang Yue pulled Huabao Xiangjun to find Mrs. Li.

"Auntie must have a lot of fur here, why don't we try wiring first?"

Huabao Xiangjun didn't like to be with Zhao Qinghong, Fang Yue invited her to find Mrs. Li, and happily followed Fang Yue.

Chang'an watched his sister walk away and retracted his chaotic thoughts.

"If my father doesn't serve the army, will Wen Rui feel that he is wrong?" Zhao Qinghong was crooked in the chair, looking a little careless.

Chang'an said: "Why do you have to raise troops? The prince guards the borders of the country, whether he is the lord of the world or not, he is equally respected and worthy of the love of our people. ”

Zhao Qinghong raised his eyebrows and asked: "You have poured so much grain to go to the northwest, if your father doesn't do anything, don't you feel like a toss in vain?" ”

Chang'an said with a smile: "I just don't want Jiangnan to be chaotic, the Jiangnan of the world's granary, if it is chaotic, the people's lives will be sad." The border has always needed food and grass, and it has nothing to do with whether to raise troops or not! ”

Ji Ran handed the calculated account book to Zhao Qinghong.

"I wonder why the price of grain in Jiangnan has doubled and risen, and the silver money we use to buy grain this year is 20% less than in previous years?"

Ji Ran frowned and recalled the account book, "It's missing two percent?" ”

Chang'an explained: "That's because every year, the prince purchases grain and grass from Jiangnan, and he goes through one channel.

However, after the price of grain rises this year, the price of grain may be slightly higher at the beginning. But when the price of grain in Jiangnan rose to the point that people panicked, the grain that the prince received again was to reduce everyone's position. ”

Ji Ran said suddenly: "I see. ”

Zhao Qinghong flicked his finger on the account book, "In addition to the fact that the merchant is smart but is mistaken by the smart, there is another thing, corruption!" ”

Chang'an said: "The second master doesn't have to be like this, the water is clear, and there are no fish." ”

Zhao Qinghong asked: "As far as I know, there is no corruption in Fenggu Town, and there is no opportunity, how did you do it?" ”

"A town, how does it compare to the army?" Chang'an asked rhetorically.

Zhao Qinghong chuckled: "In my opinion, a city is just a bigger town. ”

It was raining in the evening, and Fang Yue was at home in the space, talking to her father and mother about today's barbecue.

After Chang'an came in, the brother and sister tacitly did not talk about Huabao Xiangjun.

"The army of the vassal king has been assembled, and we are leaving the capital now, and there is no guarantee of safety on the way." Chang'an Road.

Fang Yue was worried, "Let's go, what should Grandma Hu do?" ”
