The coolness of the morning dissipates as the sun rises little by little. Ruixue raised her hand to shield herself from the dazzling sunlight and looked at the ancient bluestone road.

"I don't like that."

Zhao Xihou listened to Ruixue's childish words and smiled: "What's wrong?" What do you do about this? ”

Rui Xue bit her lip and said sullenly: "I think Mrs. Liu ......"

Rui Xue didn't know what to say, she felt that Mrs. Liu was out of place there.

"What do you want to say? Think the Qiu family shouldn't marry into the Liu family? ”

Rui Xue nodded: "The Liu family doesn't like Mrs. Liu very much. The girl of the Liu family obviously despised Mrs. Liu, just like the maids around Zhao Xihou who treated the people in the old mansion at the beginning. When you look at people, your nostrils are longing to turn to the sky.

Zhao Xihou smiled slightly: "You also found this?" I see that you are very interested in the wood carving of the Liu family, but I didn't expect to even notice this. ”

"The wood carvings of the Liu family are good-looking, but I feel very closed. It seems that there is no day to emerge, and people are trapped in that piece of heaven to death. Third Young Master, don't you think it's too quiet there? ”

Zhao Xi said thickly: "Sure enough, you still understand me." It's okay for me to take a few looks, but if I were to stay there, I'd be mad. It's not in vain that I helped you put your feet when I was a child, or where would you be able to run such a long way now. Are you tired? Hungry? Let's go, I'll take you to something delicious. ”

Ruixue nodded, she had been so busy for so long that she didn't even drink her saliva. She had never eaten outside before, and she was quite expectant: "Third Young Master, what is delicious outside?" ”

Zhao Xihou said proudly: "Of course there is delicious food, otherwise why would I run outside all day." There are a lot of things that Uncle Wang hasn't made yet, I'll buy them for you later. ”

"It's better than Daddy's cooking?"

Zhao Xihou took Rui Xue and turned a corner at the intersection in front: "It's different, it's not bad to eat occasionally." Do you want to find a place to rest first? ”

Rui Xue nodded, her main thing was thirst, she was sweating a lot in the kitchen in the face of the stove fire, her body was sticky, and it was uncomfortable. Now the sun is already starting to heat up, and everyone feels hot.

Zhao Xihou fanned the fan violently and thought for a moment: "Then go further, there is nothing to sell in this piece." ”

Rui Xue pursed her lips and smiled: "Young Master often comes out to find food?" I want to tell the old lady, you don't study well. ”

Zhao Xi gave Rui Xue a quick head with a thick hand: "Just talk too much." ”

Rui Xue rubbed her head: "Let's go back, if the old lady can't find you, you should be in a hurry, in case you ......"

Zhao Xihou said impatiently: "Why can't I find it." Liu Ping was looking for me at the concierge, and they all knew that I had gone to Liu's house, what I was afraid of. Find a place to rest, it's too hot. You're not hot? ”

Ruixue quietly wiped the sweat from the tip of her nose and nodded. She was hungry and thirsty now.

"That's it. There's a tofu brain marrow seller over there, which tastes good and isn't greasy. You won't be upset if you eat it on a hot day. ”

walked a little forward for half a street, turned a few corners, and finally arrived at the place Zhao Xihou said.

The whole street is a small business. There are all kinds of snacks and knick-knacks sold along the road. Ruixue's eyes are almost on her head, and she can't pull them out.

Growing so big, it was the first time she left the Zhao Mansion and the first time she saw the outside world. The shouting, the shouting, all of them are so strange.

She watched everything curiously.

silk threads of all kinds; colored porcelain rouge box; carved bamboo and wood comb; Prepared carmine powder......

Suddenly, so many things appeared in front of her eyes together, which was really a little surprising.

Rui Xue hit a box of incense powder and smelled it.

The vendor immediately sold: "Sister, look at this powder, it's snow-white." Sister looks so good, it's good to use this......" As he spoke, he took another box of powder from the stall and handed it to Rui Xue, "Sister still buys this, this is better than that powder, this one has some aroma, the powder is also delicate, not so coarse, and it is better to apply it on the face." ”

Rui Xue took the box of powder and smelled it, a strong aroma, she frowned a little annoyed.

Zhao Xihou, who was following her, stopped her: "Aren't you tired?" How do you still have the strength to look at this? ”

"I'm not tired, I want to buy some things and bring them back to the fifth girl, I'll come out for the first time, and I'll tell the fifth girl well when I turn around......" She stopped talking at the thought of the second lady's order not to let her in, and her eyes were just looking at the things on the stall.

Zhao Xihou looked at her lack of interest, sighed, and said softly: "I'll just say it casually, if you want to shop, just shop." The fat powder here is not good, there is a shop over there, I heard that it is good, I will take you there to have a look. ”

Rui Xue suddenly smiled, her eyes brightened: "Really? But...... I didn't bring any money. ”

Zhao Xihou looked at her stunned, and suddenly laughed: "It turns out that you are waiting for me to say this, okay, I'll help you out." You've worked hard today. ”

Rui Xue picked out a few red head ropes on the stall, saying that she was going to give them back to whoever they wanted; I bought a few more bundles of thread and said it was for whom......

I saw that there were dumplings for sale, so I chose two more packs: "The third young master is not at home during the Dragon Boat Festival, and I haven't eaten zongzi, I bought it, please ask my father to wrap it for you again." ”

Looking at Ruixue, who burst into brilliance in an instant, Zhao Xihou really wondered where the girl who was not in good spirits and couldn't move half an inch in one step ran.

After walking around most of the street, Zhao Xihou couldn't stand it anymore, so he directly pulled Ruixue to a stall and sat down. Regardless of whether the cup was clean or not, he picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea and drank it dry in one gulp. I put a few more money and asked the boss to bring two or two bowls of tofu brain.

Zhao Xihou rubbed his thighs, watched Rui Xue rummage through her things, and couldn't help complaining: "You are younger than me, and your physical strength is not good, how can you not be tired of buying things?" ”

"The first time I came out, I saw everything so strange, I wanted to buy everything. If it weren't for the Third Young Master you taking me out, I wouldn't have known that it was so lively outside. Rui Xue smiled on her face, looked at Zhao Xihou sweetly, and took his hand, "Third Young Master, it's so fun outside, no wonder you like to come out." ”

"You like it too?"

Rui Xue nodded with a smile: "It's much more fun than in the house." There are a lot of people out there, and there are a lot of things. ”

"That's, why don't I run out every day and do something? Reading at home every day is going to be boring. ”

Rui Xue discussed with seven points of flattery: "Then next time you come out, will you take me out with you?" ”

Zhao Xihou said angrily: "Come out again?" Didn't you tell your grandfather that I came out? ”

As soon as Rui Xue heard this, she immediately shook her head and promised, "I will never tell the old lady." Is the third young master good? ”

"Then I'm going to take you out to play, what about the homework assigned by grandpa, if grandpa finds out, then I will be miserable."

Rui Xue shook her mouth hesitantly, suddenly came to her senses, packed her things and stood up: "Go back quickly." Third young master, you came out secretly today, and you didn't say hello to the old lady, if you were caught by the old lady, it would be bad. It's all mine, it's not. Let's go back soon. ”

Zhao Xihou looked at her little face that was instantly bitter and couldn't help laughing. I wanted to lure her to take all her calligraphy practice homework, but when she thought of it, she thought of this: "What's the difference between going back at this time and going back later?" Now that you're out, you'll eat in peace and go back. I didn't tell you, the porter must have said that I went to Liu's house. Wait, you go back through the side door, and I go through the front door, where will I know? ”

Ruixue sat down again. Her eyes were quickly drawn to the movements of the boss who sold tofu brains.

Wrap the tender tofu in gauze and squeeze out the water, take a small spoon and pour it into a bowl with flour, sprinkle some minced meat, then rotate the bowl so that the tofu is coated with flour all around, and then lean the bowl against the edge of the pot and tilt, and the tofu balls will roll down the pot.

The boss did it one by one, and he didn't feel that the action was too troublesome at all.

Because of the fast movements, Ruixue couldn't see clearly. She got up and walked over to her boss and watched his movements carefully. See how he makes tender tofu into tofu balls, and pay attention to his technique.

It's just a short time, and a bowl of tofu balls is ready and served in a bowl. The boss scooped the soup from another pot, sprinkled it with chopped green onions, drizzled it with sesame oil, and served it with a little pepper.

Taste the soup first, it's very fresh. Then eat the tofu balls, which are very tender. The taste was really good, Rui Xue smiled sweetly and ate it in a big gulp.

"Is it delicious? This one is for you? Zhao Xihou saw that she kept stuffing it into his mouth, and pushed the bowl he hadn't eaten to Ruixue.

Rui Xue cheered and took another tofu brain marrow directly to herself. It's really delicious, I have to tell my dad when I go back, and ask my dad to make it for himself.

Zhao Xihou frowned and looked at her inelegant food, and kept clicking on the table to remind: "Slow down, slow down, you don't look like anything at all." Where to look like a girl, tomboy. If you let the people in your family see you, no one will say that you are demure and elegant. ”

When Rui Xue heard him say this, she quickly put the bowl away, sat up straight, scooped a tofu brain marrow with elegant movements, blew it gently, and took a small bite.

Zhao Xihou was a little amused when he saw that she suddenly returned to everyone's beautiful appearance: "You have become too fast!" ”

"Did I learn like this? I see that the girls in your house are all like this, and they look good. ”

"It's not just like, I think you're much better than them.

Rui Xue was praised by Zhao Xihou with joy in her heart. It seems that she still learned a lot from the fifth girl, but it's a pity that Mrs. Zhao didn't ask her to go in again, otherwise she could learn more from the fifth girl and the seventh girl.

Thinking of the serious Second Mrs. Zhao, Rui Xue couldn't help but sigh slightly, and she had no appetite to eat, so she took the spoon and played with the balls in the bowl for a while.

She played with the fifth girl and the seventh girl, how could she make Mrs. Zhao so angry? When I played with the five girls before, Mrs. Zhao didn't say anything, is this what they said, Second Mrs. Zhao's rules are big?

I don't know when this second Mrs. Zhao will leave, she really wants to go to the five girls to play: "Third young master, when will the wife leave?" ”

"Okay, why do you ask about this? After the test in my hometown, my wife will go to work with my master. ”

"Really?"

Zhao Xihou looked thoughtfully at the cheering Ruixue: "Mrs. is leaving, why are you so happy?" ”

Ruixue also found that she was too excited, and waved her hand in a panic to explain: "No, no, I just think my wife left too early." ”

Zhao Xihou looked at Rui Xue with amusement who was eager to explain: "You don't have to explain. You also think that after your wife came, it was not as fun as before! Me too. When my wife came, I had fewer opportunities to play outside. I really hope that the township exam will be completed soon! The wife will soon come to work with the master. ”

Oh, yes! Now I can only hope that the day of the township test will come soon. Thinking of this, Rui Xue pushed the bowl, cleaned up the things on the table, pulled Zhao Xihou and told him to get up: "Hurry up, the third young master will go back to study quickly." You must pass the township test this time, if your wife stays with you, it will not be good, hurry back to study, hurry up! ”

Tofu brain marrow: a traditional snack in She County, Anhui Province. It is rumored to be famous in the Ming Dynasty. It is known for its tender and delicious, milky white soup and delicious taste. Because the tofu balls are very tender, spherical, and some resemble monkey brains, hence the name. If you have traveled to Huangshan, you can go to She County and other places to see the Huizhou dwellings and taste this snack by the way.

As for the issue of putting pepper, I think Anhui snacks like to put pepper, and if you don't like it, you can not put it. In addition, as for two or two bowls, it means four bowls, but the locals are more taboo, so they say two or two bowls.
