The family affairs of the eldest princess Ruilu also made the idle people in the capital wait, and after a few days of discussion, it was replaced by another thing that was so exciting that people couldn't believe it. King Xin and Princess Ruqige were caught and raped in bed by the princess, and King Xin and Princess Xin were so angry that they fainted.
"Some people say that it is a bureau set up by the princess of the king of Xin." Honeysuckle told everything the market had heard.
Yan Hagi sneered, "Even if it is, it is forced by the prince of the king." "King Xin's son has a total of five concubines and four concubines, and his sister-in-law is the fourth, and he disappeared on the Shangyuan Festival nine years ago, and his whereabouts are still unknown. The only child disappeared like this, the princess almost collapsed, and the trusted prince was not sad at all, and took a concubine as usual and went into the Qinglou to drink flower wine as usual.
If you don't explode in silence, you perish in silence; Nine years of resentment piled up, and the princess of King Shin broke out in this way. The follow-up of the incident was expected and unexpected; Princess Ruqige and Tang Ke had already agreed to reconcile with the Holy Lord and moved back to the Siyi Mansion; The prince of the letter was replaced, and the princess was stimulated and kept sick in bed.
The matter of the letter palace is disgraceful, the lord of Nanping does not let him say it at home, it is none of his business, Yan Hagi does not pay too much attention, she is busy carving melons; This time, the carving is two people sitting on a small boat, she is holding a lotus flower and sitting at the bow of the boat, and Fu Zhixing is sitting at the stern with a wooden oar in his hand.
In the evening, Fu Zhixing went to Shilang's Mansion to pick up Yan Hao; Yan Tongzhu wanted to take care of his pregnant wife and didn't go out, Yan Tongming went out early in the morning, and he didn't know where he went. Yan Hao guessed that he was going to find Tan Xiuyue, "Before the daughter-in-law got married, she forgot about her sister, the third brother who has no conscience." β
"I'm with you." Fu Zhixing held her hand and interlocked his fingers, "For a lifetime." β
Yan Hagi nodded, smiling brightly, the only person in this world who can accompany him for a lifetime is his lover.
On the night of Qixi Festival, the curfew was canceled in the capital, there were many people on the street, and there were many hawkers. There were a lot of adults and children around the sugar painting stall, and before they could squeeze in, they heard a burst of cheers.
"It's good luck." Yan Hagi saw a little boy turn to the big carp. Due to the modeling, the syrup used in the big carp is the third most, and it is more difficult to transfer, "Cousin Fu, I want to turn too." β
Fu Zhixing took out five copper coins and handed them to the stall owner, "If you want to turn around." "The little girl hasn't grown up yet, and her childlike innocence is still alive.
Yan Hagi turned, but unfortunately he couldn't turn to the big carp, and turned to the simplest small flower, Yan Hagi didn't dislike it, holding the sugar flowers, and Fu Zhixing continued to shop. Walking to the street, there is a young couple selling tofu flowers shouting and greeting customers.
"Cousin Fu, I'm hungry." Yan Hagi finished eating the candy painting and threw the small wooden stick to the side.
"Let's go eat tofu flowers." Fu Zhixing smiled clearly.
The two went to sit down at the empty table of the stall, and the young woman stepped forward and said, "What do you want to eat?" β
"Two bowls of tofu flowers, one sweet and one salty." Yan Hao helped Fu Zhixing order it together. She eats sweet, and Fu Zhixing eats salty.
The corners of Fu Zhixing's lips were slightly raised, and he was in a good mood.
After a while, two bowls of tofu flowers were served, one bowl of tofu flowers sprinkled with pale yellow osmanthus nectar, and the other bowl of tofu flowers sprinkled with coriander, soy sauce, dried shrimp, pickles and other seasonings. The sweet bowl was placed in front of Yan Hao, and the salty bowl was placed in front of Fu Zhixing.
Yan Hagi immediately scooped a spoonful of tofu flowers, blew two breaths indiscriminately, and sent it to his mouth. Fu Zhixing grabbed her wrist, "It's going to be hot." β
"I'm cold." Yan Hagi swallowed.
"Blow more." Fu Zhixing leaned over to help her blow it, and when she was almost blowing, she let go.
Yan Hagi put the slightly cool tofu flower into his mouth, which melted in his mouth, and slipped the delicate and smooth tofu flower into his throat with a gentle sip, squinting comfortably, "It's delicious." β
Fu Zhixing smiled, scooped a spoonful of tofu flowers and began to eat; He was picky about eating, and if it weren't for the sake of accompanying Yan Hagi, he wouldn't have eaten at such a food stall.
After eating the tofu flower and settling the bill, Fu Zhixing asked Yan Hao, "Do you want to go to Qiqiaotai or worship Sendai?" β
Qiqiao is mainly begging the seventh sister to teach the craftsmanship of the mind and hand, in order to knit the female red more skillful; Worshipping immortals is begging for love and hoping for a happy marriage. The Weaver Girl and the Cowherd are separated on both sides of the Milky Way, and they see each other once a year, is this marriage happy? Can a couple who are not happily married still be blessed by others?
Yan Hagi expressed skepticism, but she wouldn't say this, it was too deviant, and said with a smile: "Go and worship Sendai." β
The two of them went to worship Sendai, and the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl were enshrined on the Xiandai, and the burden was placed beside the Cowherd, and two little babies sat on the burden; A weaver girl dressed in a colorful xia dress with a loom beside her.
After bidding farewell to the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, they begged for two red ropes for a tael of silver, tied each other on their wrists, and the two went home.
The osmanthus nectar in the tofu flower aroused Yan Hao's gluttony, and the next day she led the maid to the back garden to pick osmanthus flowers, and met Zeng Yuzhi halfway through, "Sister-in-law, where are you going?" β
"I'll pick osmanthus and make osmanthus tea." Zeng Yuzhi likes to make all kinds of flower tea, "Where is my little sister going?" β
Yan Hao smiled, "I'm also going to pick osmanthus flowers, but what I'm going to do is osmanthus lotus seed soup." "The lotus seeds in early autumn are crisp and raw, sweet and delicious.
The two sisters-in-law led the maid to destroy the flowers, and the three osmanthus trees in the back garden suffered; The wheat finch was very strong, and when they laid the cloth under the tree, she hugged the trunk and shook it vigorously, and the flowers on the tree fell one after another.
"Little sister, you girl is so good, it doesn't take much trouble to pick flowers with her." Zeng Yuzhi said with a smile.
Yan Hagi hugged the wheat bird, "The wheat bird is mine, and the sister-in-law is not allowed to rob it." Mai Que laughed happily, she had to serve the young lady all her life.
Zeng Yuzhi couldn't cry or laugh, "Don't rob, don't rob." β
Carrying two baskets of flowers, the sister-in-law went to the back kitchen of the house, whether it was to make osmanthus tea or osmanthus lotus seed soup, they had to wash the osmanthus repeatedly with salt water first.
"Sneeze, sneeze, sneeze." Yan Hagi was washing osmanthus flowers, felt an itchy nose, turned his head, and sneezed three times in a row.
"Little sister, you won't get cold, right?" Zeng Yuzhi looked at Yan Hao with a concerned expression.
"I didn't get cold, I was scented by flowers." Yan Hagi smiled.
"As the saying goes, when you sneeze someone's scolding you, when you hit two, because someone misses you, when you hit three, someone thinks about you, and my little sister just hit three, who is thinking about you?" Zeng Yuzhi pretended to think, "I know, it must be Fu Wuyi." β
"I'm his fiancΓ©e, of course he has to think about me and miss me, and if he doesn't think about me and thinks about me, that's bad." Yan Hagi must not be shy and authentic.
Zeng Yu smiled, "That's right. β
"I'm talking about the truth." Yan Hagi said proudly.
Wash the osmanthus flowers and drain them in a basket. The lotus seeds are also peeled out of the lotus pod, and after being scalded in hot water, the tender skin is peeled off, the lotus heart is removed, poured into the pot, rock sugar is added, and the boiling begins. After boiling for two quarters of an hour, the lotus seeds were boiled soft, and then the osmanthus flowers were put in, and then boiled.
After another quarter of an hour, this osmanthus lotus seed soup was boiled and sent to the main courtyard to eat with the lord of Nanping. The men in the family don't like sweets, and the women in the family can enjoy this deliciousness.
------Off topic------
It only takes fifteen minutes for me to boil lotus seed soup in a pressure cooker, but there was no pressure cooker in ancient times, so let's boil it for a longer time, if there is anything wrong, please forgive me.
