Chapter 428: Winter Hot Springs

The next day is the New Year! The Eldest Princess's Mansion is more lively than any mansion in the capital!

Since the morning, there has been no interruption of gift-givers, and the palace, Zhao Wangfu, Qi Wangfu and other people who can count them have sent gifts in turn.

When the high-ranking officials who had participated in the palace banquet heard the letter, they did not delay, and the endless stream of gift-givers hit the heel of the Changde housekeeper to the back of the head.

Fortunately, the second master and others have already arranged the things in the shop, and they went back to the eldest princess's mansion to work with him.

As the owner, Shutong is very leisurely playing with new gadgets in the room.

In the afternoon, the sky began to fall with fine snowflakes again.

Cuiyun was afraid that the snowflakes would drift into the house, so she put down the window sash that had been propped up.

"In previous years, it began to snow before the lunar month, but this year, the snow is full of energy, and it will not stop for three or five days in the year!"

Hongxia came in with a plum bottle, "It's snowing, and it's a different scenery in our house, I haven't seen enough of the snow scene last time!" ”

"Master! This is the red plum that the slave maid picked from the garden, look where it is placed! ”

Shutong raised his eyes and saw that on the dense plum petals, he faintly saw a little snow, which soon melted because of the temperature in the house, and the petals left a piece of luster.

Anywhere to go, "Leave it there!" ”

"You're picking plum blossoms again?"

Hongxia secretly stuck out her tongue, "I got up late today, and I didn't have time to pick plum blossoms for my master!" ”

"Then where did you go, I haven't seen anyone for half a day!" Cuiyun helped her put her things.

Hongxia said with a smile, "There are many beautiful places in our princess's mansion, and the slave maid doesn't look fine, so she just walks around and enjoys it!" ”

Cuiyun smiled: "You are not on duty, you should rest in the room, I see that your needle and thread have not moved for a few days, and you are actually interested in running around on such a cold day!" ”

Hongxia's eyes were shining, "What's wrong with visiting such a beautiful place?" When I go out in the future, if people ask me how about the eldest princess's mansion? I'm going to say one, two, three, too! ”

"You're right!" Cuiyun glanced at her and was about to speak, when Chun Xing opened the curtain and came in.

"Eldest princess, this is the red bean cake that Mrs. Chen respects!"

Shutong saw that the red bean cake was placed on a small plate, which was not as delicate as the imperial kitchen, but it had a familiar fragrance.

After eating two pieces in a row, he squinted his eyes and nodded, "Mrs. Chen's red bean cake is delicious, you can also taste it!" ”

The girls were used to her sometimes being neither big nor small, so they ate a piece.

"Mrs. Chen, why don't you come in?" Dredging noticed that there was no one outside.

Cuiyun smiled: "The master only came back in the middle of the night last night, I'm afraid that you didn't sleep well, and Mrs. Chen didn't dare to come in and disturb!" ”

Shu Tong smiled: "Why are you restrained now!" ”

Hongxia secretly stuck out her tongue, "The master's identity and status are different now, and when our sisters came, they were so scared that they didn't even dare to go out!" ”

"Just now I was just talking about it, and Sister Fang and Wangcai who coaxed me to walk around the back garden, it will snow, so I sent them back!"

"It's been a few days, why haven't you had enough!" Cuiyun brings freshly brewed tea.

Shutong drank warm tea and looked up at the fine snowflakes outside the window.

"Hearing you say that, I want to go out too!"

"Master! It's snowing outside, and the shoes and socks are wet when you go out, so why not wait for the weather to clear before going, it's your own home after all, and the scenery won't run away! Chun Xing boldly persuaded.

Shutong suddenly remembered something, "By the way, I heard that there is a hot spring in the house, is it possible to use it now?" ”

Chun Tao nodded and said, "If you go to the Xiangtang Pavilion, you can do it, the slave maid heard that many nobles like to soak in the hot spring pool on a snowy day!" ”

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go!" Shutong threw the toy away.

In a word, the girls are busy, and the crowds will soon be ready.

The group walked forward along the hand-copying verandah, arrived in the backyard, and opened the oil-paper umbrella painted with the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River.

Although there was a light breeze, the snowflakes were fine but not very violent, and occasionally fell on the face, with a little wetness.

The princess's mansion is indeed big enough, and the hot springs are behind Geumsan.

There is a sea of bamboos here, and there are scattered snowflakes on the withered branches at the moment, and there is another taste.

Xiangtang Pavilion is a separate courtyard, and after entering, it is also carved beams and painted buildings.

Before you even entered, you could see a mist rising from the snowflakes, and the heat of the hot spring caused the snowflakes to turn into water vapor before they hit the ground.

This makes this courtyard seem to be a fairy sight on earth.

Shu Tong, who had little knowledge, nodded straight, stretched out his hand to touch the ethereal water vapor, and imagined that in the future, when the foundation was built and the boundary was broken, would the Heavenly Palace be like this.

"This place is good! The clouds are shrouded, as if you have arrived in a fairyland! "Hongxia surprise.

The door is open, and there is a steaming hot spring pool!

Knowing that the eldest prince was going to come to soak in the hot springs, the people of the Xiangtang Pavilion had already prepared, and a row of maids greeted him at the door.

When I entered the room, I found that there were three hot spring pools, separated by screens.

The decoration of these three places is similar, arranged in order from large to small.

At the innermost pond, a carp carved in white marble came out of the water, with its head and tail cocked, as if it was ready to jump the dragon gate at any time!

Warm water flowed out of its mouth and poured into the first pool, which was high and low, and the spring meandered into the second pool.

Flowing into the last pool in turn, you can see the water surface steaming, and the water temperature should be from high to low.

According to the maid, the water temperature of the three pools is slightly different, and the first deepest water is also hot, but it is also a temperature that the human body can accept, and the master can swim!

The latter two are shallow!

Although Shutong has cultivation, she once went into the water to catch fish in the deep valley of Python Mountain, but she really can't swim!

The eschatological order has collapsed, and there is no artificial swimming pool at all!

And in the rivers and lakes in the wild, the mutated river fresh, the seafood will eat people in turn, and if you want to go down to swim, you are killing yourself!

She wisely chose the shallowest pool!

The girls waited for her to change her clothes, and Shutong tested the water temperature with her feet, and then went down the white marble steps step by step.

Standing in the pool, I found that the hot spring water was only up to my waist, and the oval pool was surrounded by a circle of white marble for people to sit on.

She sat down slowly, the pool almost shoulder-point.

The warm spring water surrounds the body, and it is very warm and comfortable!

Shu Tong happily raised his hand to pat the water, and paddled with his bare arms!

From time to time, he raised his feet at the bottom of the water, and because of the buoyancy of the water, his white and tender legs also swayed slightly.

After playing for a while, I saw the maids busy on the shore, and beckoned: "This place is very big, you guys also come down to bubble!" ”

Hongxia was a little moved, was glared at by Cuiyun, and said with a smile: "The slaves and maids are waiting!" ”

Hongxia bowed her head in disgrace.

The grandmother, who specializes in guarding the hot spring pool, led a group of maids to bring fruit wine and fruit platters.

The thing is placed in a wooden lotus plate, and carefully pushed down the water to the edge of the dredging tree.

"Eldest princess, this is hawthorn wine! Drink less to activate the meridians! ”

Shutong picked up the glass cup, and the red and bright hawthorn wine in it had a faint aroma!

At this time, several lotus-shaped wooden pots floated in, filled with all kinds of snack boxes and dried fruits!

"Eldest princess, pad your stomach indiscriminately, it's not good to soak in the hot spring on an empty stomach!"
