The antique soup in winter is really delicious, and it is hot and warm to people's hearts.

In the large kitchen, there are five or six different sauces such as hemp, oil, vinegar dishes, and dry ingredients, which are served with thinly chopped wild pheasant meat, rabbit meat and various vegetables, which are tender and delicious.

Lu Tang was greedy, and couldn't help but eat some of everything, and a little bit of accumulation was much more than the usual amount of food. At this time, he held his stomach and leaned on the small table, and he was in a panic, and asked Pu Jia to rub his belly.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lu couldn't help but feel funny in her heart, and couldn't help but shake her head and sigh.

After a while, a beautiful maid in the outer room held a tea set and refreshments, and sent them over with a swaying posture.

Mingzhu Mingyue and the two big girls stood behind Mrs. Lu and waited, first put three delicate small refreshments placed in the celadon three-fish small plate on the small table, and then held the tooth-white lotus-patterned tea cup and handed it to Mrs. Lu and Lu Tang.

Lu Tang had already rested for a while and breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, after receiving the teacup, he sat up straight with a smile, and while taking a sip, he told Mrs. Lu about what he had seen and heard in Weihua Temple in the morning.

"So, then the Qin family's Jiyue Gongzi has helped you a lot?"

Mrs. Lu took a sip of tea soup and asked with a smile.

"Well, if it weren't for the help of Jiyue Gongzi, my snowball would have run away without saying anything!"

Lu Tang's eyes widened and said to Mrs. Lu seriously.

"Then let your second brother take you to the Qin Mansion another day, and thank them well."

When Mrs. Lu saw her daughter's serious face, she couldn't help laughing, and casually assigned Lu Er, who had no idea, as a laborer.

"My mother really understands the righteousness." Lu Tang smiled and patted his mother's ass.

"But Ning Changning Xie Yuan, it sounds like an interesting person."

Mrs. Lu's mouth suddenly changed, and then she sipped tea again.

I happened to drink all the tea soup in the cup, so I put it down. Mingyue, the big girl waiting next to her, quickly took the tooth-white Hualien teacup in her hand, and asked Mingzhu, who was also waiting next to her, to hold the teapot and gently pour a stream of red and hot tea soup into the teacup, and then respectfully took it back to Mrs. Lu's hand.

"He's really talented."

Lu Tang didn't like Ning Chang, so he pursed his lips and praised casually, and put down the small teacup in his hand.

I also saw that the three small refreshments on the small table next to it were very beautiful. I saw that one of them was a cream pine nut roll cake, the same was a lotus root powder rock sugar osmanthus cake, and finally a darker tea had not been seen. She took a closer look curiously - only to see that the dim sum was green and brown, and the shape of various flowers such as plum blossoms, peonies, and water chestnuts was made with silver molds, which were small and exquisite.

She picked up a plum blossom at random and tasted it, only to feel that the entrance was crispy and sweet, and she couldn't help squinting her eyes, and asked the maid Mingyue: "This snack is delicious, why haven't you seen it before?" ”

"I'm drinking Zhengshan Xiaozhong here, and I made sweet and sour plum black jade cake in the kitchen. You don't like to drink black tea in your yard on weekdays, so you have never eaten this refreshment. ”

Mrs. Lu saw that Lu Tang was greedy for eating this black plum ink jade cake, and she didn't wait for Mingyue to answer, so she explained with a smile.

"Then I'll replace the Pu'er tea in the yard with Zhengshan Xiaozhong tomorrow and eat it with some plum cakes."

Lu Tang pinched up a piece of water chestnut-shaped black plum ink jade cake and put it in his mouth, and said vaguely.

Mrs. Lu nodded her head and ordered with a smile.

The mother and daughter chatted for a while, and when they were talking about how sweet and famous the plum blossom rice in Weihua Temple was, suddenly a little girl with a round face came to report that Aunt Zhang wanted to see Mrs. Zhang.

Lu Tang got up in interest and said goodbye to Mrs. Lu. He walked out of the house with a smile, exchanged a few words with Aunt Zhang, who was gentle and silent on weekdays, and took the two maids, Pujia and Caiwei, back to their small courtyard.

…………

For some reason, the time in winter always makes people feel that it passes much slower than other seasons.

The weather has been gloomy lately, and although it has not continued to snow, the cold wind is particularly cold, and it hurts to cut people's faces like knives.

Lu Tang has been frail and afraid of the cold since he was a child, so he has gone out a lot less often in recent days, except for asking his mother to say goodbye, he stays in his small yard all day long to play with Xueqiuer, and even a few brothers don't see each other much.

On this day, Lu Tang lazily leaned on the couch as usual, watching snowballs fluttering in the house and chasing a ball of yarn.

There were three braziers burning in the room, and the warm heat made people sleepy. Pu Jia poured tea for Lu Tang on the side, and Xuehua happily held Xueqiu'er's small cushion and sat on a small stool in the corner of the house to sew.

There was a "creak" sound in the outer courtyard, and Cai Wei put on a half-new silver gray squirrel fur jacket and hurried in. He walked directly through the small courtyard, lifted the cotton curtain, and entered the house.

Lu Tang only felt that a cold air also swept in with Cai Wei, and he couldn't help wrapping the small blanket on his body, and said with a smile: "Go to the brazier to warm up, look at you like an iceman." ”

Cai Wei didn't move, biting her lip and not replying, her eyes wandered, and she didn't dare to look at Lu Tang.

"What's going on?"

Seeing that her appearance was unusual, Lu Tang sat up straight and asked solemnly.

Cai Wei tugged at the corners of her stiff mouth and forced a smile out. rubbed his red hands that were frozen again, secretly raised his eyes to look at Lu Tang, and whispered in his mouth: "Miss Hui, Miss Zhen of the Zhang family, is married to the prince." ”

What the?

Lu Tang made a loud bang in his heart, as if something had collapsed, and he panicked in his heart.

Pu Jia, who was waiting next to her, was also a little surprised, and bit her lip to look at Cai Wei.

Xuehua didn't feel anything, looked up at the people in the room, and continued to work in her hand for some reason.

"You mean, the sister of the Zhang family is married to the prince?"

Lu Tang couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh, so he asked with a wooden question.

"Miss Hui, it's all talking outside. Miss Yu of the Zhang family is married to the prince today. ”

Cai Wei said it again, and her voice gradually stabilized. seemed to think about it and felt that it was a good thing in the end, so he looked at Lu Tang's tone a little lighter.

"Oh."

Lu Tang eased his mind, and a smile barely appeared on his face.

Pu Jia next to her glanced at her with a little worry, poured a cup of tea and handed it over.

"It's time to marry the prince, isn't it because of this that Sister Zhang entered Beijing. How did I forget? ”

Lu Tang took the teacup and muttered in a low voice to comfort himself, but his fingers were slightly white because he was holding the teacup tightly.

Prince.

The prince is only ten years old this year.
