When autumn comes in the capital, it is very obvious.

Wanwan got up early in the morning and went to the yard, and she already smelled the faint fragrance of osmanthus flowers.

Every year, the fragrance of osmanthus in the palace can always accompany Wanwan throughout autumn. Rich in fragrance, but not stuffy. Just smelling like this, it seems that the coolness of autumn will dissipate a little.

Wanwan stood on the edge of the osmanthus tree, looking at the small osmanthus flowers hanging between the trees.

"Nian Xia." Wanwan said: "I have time to pick some osmanthus flowers down." I remember that Hongqing and Honghui liked to eat osmanthus cakes, and it was good to make some mung bean cakes with some roses. ”

Now Wanwan is in the house, and she is idle when she is idle, so it's actually good to find something to do for herself.

Yinyu has just set out for the expedition, and now he is still on the way. The two of them also made an appointment to pass a letter to each other for a month at most.

It's only been a few days since she went out, and Wanwan has thought a lot about what she wants to write in the letter.

Speaking of which, when the two of them were together all the time, they didn't feel anything, and they always thought that the relationship was almost like this.

But it turned out that it wasn't until the time of separation that I realized that I was so reluctant.

"The two little brothers like to eat the dim sum made by Fujin the most." Nian Xia got Wanwan's words, and he was busy picking those osmanthus flowers. While picking it, he said, "It's just autumn recently, and I heard that there are a lot of lotus pods in the lotus pond." ”

"Qinglan, that kid said he was going to get some lotus pods and come back to eat. The slave hasn't eaten lotus seeds for a long time, should Fujin eat some too? Although it is going to be cooler in autumn, the autumn tiger is still there, and there is nothing wrong with going dry. ”

Lotus?

mentioning this reminded Wanwan of her past days in Hangzhou.

There are many lakes and rivers in Hangzhou, and there are naturally many people who raise lotus. In addition to the infinite blue lotus leaves that can be seen every summer, the lotus seeds in autumn are also very delicious.

After going to the lotus heart, the lotus seeds taste sweet. Moreover, Wanwan also likes to eat lotus roots. The lotus root is stewed with pork ribs, and it is also very delicious.

Thinking of this, Wanwan was a little greedy.

"Let Qinglan get some more lotus pods back." Wanwan said: "It doesn't matter if you eat more of these snacks. I eat it once a year, and if I don't eat it, I'm afraid I'll have to wait until next year. ”

"That's right. Zhang Fuzi is from Hangzhou, and I heard that some people in Hangzhou also eat this. When the time comes, I will also send some to Master Zhang. It's not easy for him, and don't forget him in these things. ”

"Our Fujin is comprehensive, and the slaves dare not forget it." Nian Xia said: "The slave maid is here to help Fujin pick osmanthus flowers." There is still some sun at this time, and if Fu Jin feels sunny, he should go into the house and rest. ”

"Or maybe go and sit in the gazebo. The seasonal flowers behind the gazebo are in excellent bloom, and it is good to sit and enjoy the flowers. ”

Just leave these hard things to her.

Wanwan basked in the sun for a while, but she felt a little sweaty in her head, so she said to Nian Xia: "If you are tired, rest for a while, don't get heat stroke." ”

"Yes." When Xia Ying answered, he continued to pick osmanthus flowers.

In the afternoon, surrounded by clouds, the sun seemed much smaller. Wanwan took a sip of the osmanthus honey water brought by Nian Xia, and couldn't help frowning.

"This honey water always feels different from what I drink on weekdays." Wanwan thought for a moment and asked, "Or is it concocted according to the previous method?" ”

"Yes, Fujin." Nian Xia nodded, feeling strange, so she took the kettle out and poured another glass, and took a sip of it herself, and then said, "It seems... The slave didn't drink anything different. ”

"Really?" Wanwan thought about it, but couldn't think of a reason, so she said, "Then forget it." By the way, have all the osmanthus been sealed? Remember to marinate some and put it in the dish when you have it. ”

"It's all done, Fujin rest assured." Nian Xia reported them one by one, and everything was very proper.

On this day, when Hongqing came back, he looked depressed.

At that time, Wanwan happened to be playing with Honghui in the house, and as soon as Hongqing came in, she sighed, and then said: "Eniang, when the master took the homework test today, my son was not the first. ”

In the Guozi Prison, there are many heirs of the emperor's elder brother who are studying there. In addition to them, there are also some sons who are the children of rich families. These sons and sons are from good backgrounds, they have been studying since they were children, and they have some talents, so they are naturally very high.

Hongqing, who has studied hard since he was a child, and has also gained some talent from his Amma, has always been the number one in the country's prison. The master loves Hongqing very much, and the same is true for Kangxi.

Often, when the master takes the teaching coursework, Hongqing can get the first place. This time, I didn't get the first place, so I came back dejected.

"It's okay." Wanwan didn't care about this, so she said: "On weekdays, your seriousness is also seen by Eniang." Life will inevitably have some ups and downs. ”

"It's smooth sailing, but it's not a good thing. When there are setbacks, you can see what you are lacking in your daily life, right? It's okay, just keep working hard in the future. ”

Hongqing glanced at Wanwan, as if she didn't expect her own mother to be so light-hearted, after thinking about it, she muttered, "I'm still worried on the way back." ”

"I thought that Eniang would ask long and short questions, and wanted to know why my son didn't get the first place. Originally... E-niang didn't ask. ”

Although I didn't ask, E-Niang still cared about herself very much. In this way, it is actually enough.

"I know you like to play sometimes, but you're still sensible when it matters. Know what you should and shouldn't do. ”

Wan Wan said, "Even then, that's enough." I ask too much, and you will feel stressed. It's better to keep a normal heart. Didn't Master Zhang teach you the same way? ”

Wanwan remembered that when she was young, this is how Master Zhang taught her and Chen Shu.

Master Zhang said that it is enough to keep a normal heart in everything and believe in your own strength.

However, Hongqing shook her head and said, "Although Master Zhang said that he should keep a normal heart, he still let his son take the first place. Zhang Fuzi said... The students he taught should be the first. ”

…

Wanwan suddenly froze, remembering the look on her face when she was a child, when Master Zhang told herself and Chen Shu about this.
