Chapter 198: Messenger
Chapter 198: Messenger
The scholar took the letter written by Luo Buzhi and handed it to Hongling, Hongling opened it and glanced at it, although there were many contents, they were just expressing Luo Buzhi's personal admiration for Hongling.
The corners of Hongling's mouth hooked slightly, and then asked the scholar, "Do you think I need to wait a few more days before replying to his letter?" ”。
Since the scholar gave her advice that day, Hong Ling has taken a different look at the scholar, and she is worthy of being a person carefully selected by Chen Jinye, and her mind is really much more thoughtful.
"The little one thinks that there is no need to be careful with him, otherwise with Luo's unknown personality, it is estimated that you will think that you are unwilling to talk to him or something."
Hongling was a little surprised, "What can you see her personality?" ”。
The scholar shook his head helplessly and said: "Luo Buzhi's personality is really a little straight, and the little ones are a little suspicious that there may be a lot of water in his title of the first genius of Nanzhao."
Hong Ling couldn't help laughing when she heard this, and said slowly: "You have a pair of discerning eyes that see the essence."
After that, Hongling went into the study and wrote a letter, handed it to the scholar, and then slowly explained: "The next thing to do is to let you follow Luo Buzhi naturally, gain his trust, and it is best to enter Luo's mansion."
The scholar nodded clearly, paused, and said, "But if I enter Luofu, this messenger ...... errand."
"Simple, when the time comes, you will say that I am grounded, you can't enter the house, you can only send the letter to the side door, but you can't enter the house, you have no errands, you can't make ends meet, you can't send letters anymore, you see how he reacts."
Even though the scholar understood Hongling's statement, he suddenly realized the look on his face, nodded in agreement, and promised to do the errand.
After explaining the matter of delivering the letter, Hong Ling couldn't help but look at the gate of the courtyard, for many days, Chen Jinye has never been to this courtyard again, and I don't know if he really figured it out, and he will not put the relationship between the two in his heart in the future.
Thinking of this, Hongling lowered her head and smiled bitterly, she was always like this, when he didn't come, she always thought in her heart that she hoped that he would always be by her side, he was too close to him, and she couldn't stop pushing him away with her own hands, and then pushed him away, and she began to miss him when she was by her side, what a contradiction......
Xiuxiu's injuries have long been healed, and in order to cooperate with Hongling, she has been staying in the house and not going out, but when she is in the yard, Xiuxiu can still serve with Xiaoqing by her side, but it is just a matter in Lingxiao Tower, so she can only let the master who pretends to be her two go to do a disguise.
It's strange during this time, these two people haven't been hurt at all, so Xiuxiu always said to Hongling, or let her go out, but she still has some kung fu herself, even if there are bad people, she can deal with it, but Hongling always doesn't let go, saying that the outside world is dangerous, just stay at home with her.
And looking at Hongling's sad face every day, Xiuxiu and Xiaoqing were really frightened and distressed, after getting along for so long, Xiuxiu didn't know that her own mother was the hardest and softest-hearted master, and after driving the prince away, she was sad alone......
"Niangniang, why don't we go and see the prince?"
Hongling was stunned, looked back at Xiuxiu, and said slowly: "You don't have to go to see him, he will live well by himself."
After speaking, Hongling poured three cups of tea, let Xiuxiu and Xiaoqing sit down, and drank tea with her. ”。
Xiuxiuxiu said this, Hong Ling suddenly slapped her head and said: "You reminded me that there is nothing to do these days anyway, you can learn how to make coffee with me, so that you can also make it in the restaurant in the future."
Xiuxiu and Xiaoqing looked at each other, shhhhhh
Hongling was busy, brought out the 'black material' in the basket, and demonstrated it to Xiaoqing and Xiuxiu step by step, after flushing, she asked the two of them to taste it, and sure enough, Xiuxiu and Xiaoqing vomited at the same time, Hongling sneered, and said slowly: "If you want to make this black material delicious, you have to add something to it......."
Xiuxiu looked at Hongling suspiciously, and said with a pout: "Niangniang, this is not from Chinese medicine, no, it is more bitter and unpalatable than Chinese medicine......."
Hongling was so amused that she mixed the prepared sugar and milk into the coffee, and then handed them to the two for them to taste.
It's just that Xiuxiu and Xiaoqing were very cautious at this time, very vigilant against the brown coffee-colored liquid in their hands, and their eyes fluttered back and forth between Hongling and coffee.
In the end, under the continuous encouragement of Hongling, Xiuxiu took the lead in taking a small sip with the courage to take a sip, but this small sip really made Xiuxiu's eyes widen in amazement, "Wow! It's really delicious! ”。
"Really?"
Xiao Qinghu took a small sip suspiciously, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and his eyes were full of curiosity when he looked at Hongling.
I saw Hongling hook the corners of her mouth and say carefully: "Actually, the coffee I made is not so delicious, it's just that no one compares with me", after speaking, he lowered his head and fell into the memories of his previous life.
In the past, in modern times, I would often go to have a cup of coffee with Liu Min......
"Mother, is anyone else going to make this coffee?"
Hongling raised her head and looked at the two people in front of her, she didn't have too much baggage in her heart, so she explained the delicious coffee she had drunk before.
"In fact, the black material did not grow like this, it was originally a small fruit that grew on the tree, and after picking it down, it was dried and then crushed to be the current state, but now the technology is limited, these powders are very uneven, so it greatly limits its taste, there are some coffee beans, its own aroma is very wonderful, some are refreshing, some are deep and fragrant, and each bite has many layers of meaning......"
Speaking of this, Xiuxiu frowned slightly, and asked suspiciously, "Isn't this similar to tea?" ”。
Hongling nodded slightly, and said slowly: "The word wheel is actually almost the same, but the master who can appreciate the fragrance of tea may not be able to taste the difference of coffee, and to some extent, there are still some industry barriers."
Xiuxiu nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Is anyone really going to like this black bitter water?" ”。
Hongling nodded slightly, and said slowly: "There may be people who are born and like to endure hardships, but who knows, some people drink coffee every day, but they are still afraid of drinking medicinal soup ......."
Xiuxiu held her cheeks, slowly picked up the black material on the table and sniffed it, and said slowly: "Actually, if you don't drink it, it still smells good."
Hong Ling hooked the corners of her mouth and smiled, and said slowly: "Do you know, this coffee still has some effects."
"What effect?"
"It makes people get excited, and they can't sleep even if they want to......"
Xiu Xiu's eyes widened, "What kind of effect is this?" I'm afraid no one wants insomnia, right? ”。
Hong Ling frowned slightly, and after thinking about it carefully, she felt that what Xiuxiu said was very reasonable, this era is very different from modern times, and modern people inevitably have to stay up late every day with coffee and energy......
In this way, in the practice over and over again, Xiuxiu and Xiaoqing finally mastered the basic points of making coffee.
"Niangniang, you taste ......"
Hongling took the coffee cup handed over by Xiuxiu, slowly put it in her mouth, smashed it, and praised: "It tastes good."
In this way, the leisure time of the day flies, the three of them sometimes chat, sometimes go out to do exercises, no matter how bad they are, they make tea and coffee, time passes little by little, and finally it is time to deliver letters every day......
In the evening, the scholar went out and went to the Lingxiao Tower......
"Master Luo, this is a letter from my shopkeeper to you today."
Luo Buzhi excitedly opened the letter and looked at it for a long time, but the clerk came to catch him up and said that it was going to close, Luo Buzhi repeatedly opened up and wanted to write a letter, but the scholar stopped him and said: "Childe, don't worry, I won't go back today, I will leave tomorrow, Childe might as well give it to me tomorrow."
"You're not going back? Why? ”
I saw the scholar arch his hand slightly towards Luo Buzhi, and said: "The red shopkeeper has been grounded recently, and I can't even go back to her courtyard with me, so I can only settle here, if I can't go back this month, I'm afraid of ......."
Luo Buzhi frowned, "What are you afraid of?" ”。
"I'm afraid that I won't be able to get the money in the courtyard and make ends meet, so I won't be able to send letters to my son and the shopkeeper."
Luo Buzhi frowned strangely and said, "How can this be? Can't the palace accommodate you as a subordinate? ”。
The scholar shook his head slowly, "In the palace, naturally I still recognize me, but the red shopkeeper ordered me not to go back to the courtyard, but if I don't go back to the courtyard, I won't have any money to receive, after all, the rules in the palace are to divide the people's money into various courtyards, if you don't go back to the courtyard, I'm afraid there will be no way."
Luo Buzhi nodded knowingly, and then said: "It's okay, if you don't have a good fortune in the future, I will send you a fortune, as long as you still send a letter for the two of us."
"Master Luo, this is absolutely unacceptable!"
"If I take the money outside the mansion without authorization, and the prince knows about it, it will be a crime of killing the head."
Luo Buzhi made a difficulty, and asked with a tangled face: "If this doesn't work, then how can it be good?" ”。
The scholar really felt speechless, this Luo didn't know and was too hasty, but he had no choice but to pretend to be stupid, and said slowly: "Son, go back first, tomorrow I will find a way to ask my master, and then reply to you, how about it?" ”。
Hearing the scholar say this, Luo Buzhi nodded slowly, and then settled down: "You have to wait for my letter tomorrow morning!" ”。
"Yes."
