Chapter 132: Bean Paste

[Please keep in mind the domain name of this site " ", or search in Baidu: Sanlian Literature Network] Ruixue's life has changed little by little. Zhao Xihou came to the store from time to time, pestering her openly, and all this was seen by the people in the store. I don't know if it's because Cui Huaiguang ordered them not to talk nonsense, no one has ever asked Ruixue what is going on, but everyone will look at her quietly with curious eyes.

However, as the weather gets hotter and hotter, everyone's curiosity has also diminished.

On this day, Zhao Xihou came over again, and he brought some articles from Old Lady Zhao and distributed them to Qiu Duanfu: "This is made by grandpa, take a look." ”

Qiu Duanfu hurriedly took it.

"Don't you work so hard? I was forced to use it for two days a day. Zhao Xihou saw that Qiu Duanfu was about to read the article immediately, so he hurriedly held him down.

Qiu Duanfu smiled embarrassedly: "I just want to see Old Lady Zhao's writing." ”

"Still called the old lady?"

Qiu Duanfu bowed his head slightly.

Zhao Xihou saw that Qiu Duanfu didn't want to say it and didn't force him: "Grandpa told me to tell you that from now on, don't make an article, just read the articles you have written before, and go through the book twice." ”

Qiu Duanfu said honestly: "I haven't done it anymore. I haven't moved on to the question you brought last time. ”

"That's good. This is what the fifth sister asked me to give you. Zhao Xihou took out a talisman from his body, "You put it away." I've handed it over to you with my own hands, and I'm done. I'm going to see Ruixue. ”

Qiu Duanfu immediately said: "Wait a minute, I heard from the people in the store that you ...... with Miss Wang."

Zhao Xihou became interested, and urged Qiu Duanfu to say quickly: "Say what I say to Ruixue, you can say it quickly, and let me hear it." ”

Qiu Duanfu raised his head and looked at Zhao Xihou, then shook his head: "It's nothing." ”

"Why do you like to talk and hide half? It's not like you. ”

Qiu Duanfu clenched his talisman and took a deep breath: "Are you ...... Miss Wang?" Qiu Duanfu felt that it was difficult for him to continue the topic, and exhaled deeply. changed his approach, "Miss Wang is a girl after all, you should be scrupulous." ”

Zhao Xihou didn't answer immediately, he glanced at Qiu Duanfu twice, speculating about the meaning of what he said, but unfortunately these two sentences could give him too little information: "Zitan, what did you hear?" ”

"A woman came to see Ruixue that day, and I heard them say that the woman seemed to be asking for a kiss to Miss Wang......

Without waiting for Qiu Duanfu to finish speaking, Zhao Xihou nodded: "Oh, I know, that's fine." ”

"That's something!" Qiu Duanfu said categorically, "Everyone said that the woman had saved Miss Wang before, and the two families had always wanted to get married, but after you came, Miss Wang ......."

Qiu Duanfu was reluctant to comment on Rui Xue, he knew that Zhao Xihou and Rui Xue had known each other before, but what was the use of explaining this kind of thing to those tongue-in-cheek people, in the end, it was Rui Xue who was not good.

Zhao Xihou smiled: "If everyone says so, I'm still happy!" But that girl can't splash oil and salt. ”

"You ......"

"Nothing. It's not that I said, that person is too embarrassed to talk about that little thing, and he doesn't want to think about what her brother-in-law looks like, is he worthy of it! She didn't want to think that her family could do such a big business now, who was Kao? If it weren't for Ruixue, would that Master Song do things with her? ”

Referring to Master Song, Qiu Duanfu remembered one thing, he told Zhao Xihou about the time Zhao Youlin and his wife came to the store and then met a middle-aged man: "He claims to be surnamed Mu." I saw that the shopkeeper of Cui and the shopkeeper who often came here were respectful to him, and for no reason, he actually said that I was his friend. This matter has been in Qiu Duanfu's heart for many days, he has not known how to talk to others, in Lemin Building, he can't ask at all, "However, it is strange, the next day, the fourth master and the fourth wife came to me again, said a lot of good things, and the fourth master never mentioned the matter of quitting his family." ”

Zhao Xihou nodded: "It should be surnamed Song, I met him once, my uncle said that his surname is Song, maybe because his business name is Muzi, everyone thinks his surname is Mu." ”

"Oh? Did Lord Shen say anything about him? ”

"I've only said a few things, I just know that he has a sister who is a waiter in the palace, and her business is very big, and she makes mistakes. seems to have a good hand in officialdom, and his words on that day will affect the performance of the Halloween Festival. Zhao Xihou told Qiu Duanfu some of the things he heard, "His wife is very familiar with Ruixue, and I haven't asked Ruixue." At least this restaurant ......."

"Miss Wang and Master Wang are just the owners on the surface."

"You're getting more and more skilled in these mundane tasks now." Zhao Xihou said with a smile.

Qiu Duanfu smiled embarrassedly: "I have seen a lot in the past few months. That Zhuozi speaks uncomfortably, but he has a good pair of eyes, as long as you come this time, he can remember you firmly; It's the guy in this building, as long as he talks to you for a while, he will know where you came from and what the taste of your hometown is. The tent seems to be ...... about the prison I saw that most of his rooms were filled with books of criminal law. ”

"Jin Ying told me that my aunt once warned my wife not to provoke Mrs. Song." Zhao Xihou added, he heard this from Jin Ying. At that time, Zhao Xiyun seemed to be still worried that Second Mrs. Zhao knew that Ruixue was in Nanjing, and was afraid that Second Mrs. Zhao would embarrass Ruixue and come to him to discuss, but she didn't want to, Jin Ying smiled and said that it was not in the way. Let my aunt explain my wife like this, this ...... He also became interested in the couple, surnamed Song.

Qiu Duanfu nodded: "I see." That old man Song, I don't look like an ordinary businessman, and his bearing is far above the four masters. ”

"Okay, I'm not going to tell you. I came over just now and saw Rui Xue making something, I'll go over and try it, do you want to bring you some? Zhao Xihou stood up and greeted Qiu Duanfu.

"No, I promised someone to help them write paperwork."

Zhao Xihou nodded, walked out of Qiu Duanfu's house, and went to the small kitchen.

There is still half a moon to go to the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the chefs of Lemin Building have already begun to make this year's moon cakes, and the ordinary taste is ordinary, but Cui Huaiguang asked Dong Qiguang to launch a new flavor every year. Even the pattern on the outside of the mooncake is also chosen. It seems to be going to be better than others in this regard.

Ruixue took this opportunity to learn to grind bean paste with Dong Qiguang, and she found that the bean paste made by Dong Qiguang was much more delicate than the outside, and there was no feeling of sand grains in the mouth, but a little soft.

Red beans are ground into powder, sieved four or five times, red dates are not peeled and put in a pot to boil with brown sugar, yams are also steamed, and then pounded into puree, and finally three things are mixed with Poria cocos powder......

Zhao Xihou quietly walked behind Rui Xue, stretched out his hand and dipped the bean paste prepared by Rui Xue, and nodded: "It's delicious, you can taste it." As he spoke, he put his finger to Ruixue's mouth.

Rui Xue didn't expect him to come back at this time, don't look over: "Why are you here?" There is still half a month to go to the township test, how can you still have time to go outside. ”

"Ruixue, what should I do?" Zhao Xihou suddenly sat in a chair in the small kitchen, his legs wide spread, looking lazy and weak.

Rui Xue never thought that Zhao Xihou would say such a thing, Zhao Xihou will always be full of confidence, especially when it comes to making articles. She still remembers that when he was taking the test for Xiucai, he was hungry and wanted to rush back to eat, so he hastily handed in the papers. At that time, he was simply arrogant, what happened to him?

Rui Xue put down the work in her hand and walked to him: "What's wrong with you?" But reading is not smooth? ”

Zhao Xihou suddenly circled Ruixue's waist and put his head on Ruixue's stomach.

Rui Xue blushed suddenly, and she reached out to push Zhao Xihou: "You're good!" ”

Zhao Xihou honestly let go, but lowered his head and sighed long: "I can't pass the exam!" ”

"Huh?"

"Ruixue, this is a township test! It's a township test. Some people can't pass the exam for the rest of their lives, but can I pass it for the first time? If I don't pass the test, won't my grandfather be particularly disappointed? ”

Rui Xue can understand Zhao Xihou's thoughts somewhat, just like Uncle Li of Lao Langzhong's family. Now he is also a forty-year-old person, and he has taken the exam I don't know how many times, but he is still a talent.

"Then don't take the test. Don't you like to read? ”

Zhao Xihou looked at Rui Xue in amazement: "Then how can I marry you?" ”

Ruixue opened her mouth. I don't know why, she felt a little lost in her heart. These days, whenever she cooks something, she thinks of Zhao Xihou, thinking about what he will say after eating this, it's really a bit ......

Yesterday, she saw Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Zhao came to her in person, and told her about Zhao Xihou's things these days, saying that he was not in a state at all, sometimes good and sometimes bad, sometimes the article was full of flowers, sometimes it was bullshit, and people did not have the self-confidence before, but always said that they were not good, or they had to ask people if they could do it. Old lady Zhao was very worried about him, if he continued like this, he would not pass the exam at all this time, and he hoped that Rui Xue would talk to Zhao Xihou.

But how can I say this, let Mrs. Zhao know that Zhao Xihou went to the imperial examination in order to marry him? I'm afraid that by then, Old Lady Zhao would have already asked Zhao Xihou to stop touching books.

Zhao Xihou gasped when he saw that Rui Xue didn't speak, did he go too far, in the past two months, this girl has been a lot closer to him, if he is forced back by his own words, he will really lose more than he gains.

How could he be afraid that he would not pass the test? He was born to take the imperial examination, and those articles are completely fine. The reason why he is like this is to win Ruixue's sympathy.

"Ruixue, I'm going to take the township test this time, will you accompany me?" Zhao Xihou secretly looked at Rui Xue and discussed word by word, hoping that pretending to be pitiful would be useful.

"Shall I go with you?"

"You'll come with me. Are you waiting for me outside? I'm not at ease at all when you're not there. Zhao Xihou said and took out two articles from his cuffs and let Ruixue read them. One was done at your place last time, this is done at home, you see, grandpa said this is good, this is bullshit. ”

Rui Xue took two articles and looked at them, she didn't understand the eight strands, so she had to look at Mrs. Zhao's comments at the end, and sure enough, there were only four big words on that one: "bullshit doesn't work".

Rui Xue laughed all of a sudden, she didn't expect that Old Lady Zhao would criticize this above.

Zhao Xihou said angrily: "What are you laughing at, I'm happy to be scolded by my grandfather." He then said frustratedly, "I know you don't like me, I wish I couldn't pass the exam, but I don't want to disappoint grandpa, his health is getting worse and worse, if I fail the exam this time, I will have to wait for another three years, I don't know, grandpa ......"

"I'll just go with you." As soon as Rui Xue heard Zhao Xihou talk about Old Lady Zhao, she immediately agreed to him. Thinking that the old lady Zhao has always been very good to her, the old lady still has to help him realize this wish, but he just ......, "I'll go, can you write a good article?" ”

Zhao Xihou immediately smiled: "Of course, when the time comes, you can just watch the list!" He walked out triumphantly and turned back to Rui Xue, "I'll go back to study." I came to you on the eighth day of the new year, and that's it! ”

Rui Xue looked at Zhao Xihou's departing figure and smiled slightly. How amazing are you? It seems that Zhao Xihou should be encouraged well, and he must have the confidence to pass the exam! What's the solution?
