Chapter 112: It's Cold

Jiang Yan saw that Xie Jingxing seemed to be interested in sweet potatoes, so she said: "You have a lot of places here, you can also plant some, like my Jia Mansion, you can only take one flower pot, and the quantity can't go up." ”

Xie Jingxing said: "Okay, then I'll leave a few for next year's spring planting." "This place in Yunzhou is very barren, I heard her say that this thing is so good, it is estimated that it will be troublesome to plant, and it may not be possible to plant it here in Yunzhou, but he doesn't want to sweep Jiang Yan's prosperity, just plant it, anyway, it doesn't take much effort.

"This is very easy to plant, when it sprouts, cut off the seedlings half a foot long, and insert them into the soil, and then you don't need to take too much care, just water less. You can eat the leaves, but I haven't eaten them and I don't know what they taste. As soon as Jiang Yan heard that he wanted to plant, she immediately introduced his experience to him with great interest.

After talking about the sweet potato planting experience, Jiang Yan continued to take out the peas and yellow donkey rolling cream fried cake and so on in the baggage, and finally took out a big food box, "I guess it's not easy for you to eat here, so I brought some for you, and your favorite Shunyuantai specialties are also packed." ”

"I've been in Yunzhou for so long, and what I've thought about most is their food," Xie Jingxing couldn't wait to open the food box and said happily: "Sure enough, there is mutton soup!" You don't know that the lamb I eat here doesn't always taste like that. ”

"That's it, people have secret recipes," Jiang Yan said: "If it weren't for the Jia family's special busyness this year, I would have come over a long time ago, but I was dragged by them for a month." ”

Xie Jingxing called a subordinate to come over and asked him to take the food box down to heat it up, and then said, "What is Jiafu busy with?" Is it a matter of saving relatives? ”

Jiang Yan shrugged: "Yes, what else can they be busy with besides this." Jiang Yan said, "The emperor has approved the fifteenth day of January next year to let Concubine Xiande return to the mansion to save her relatives, and now the whole mansion is busy decorating the house, and all kinds of flowers and plants have also been changed, and I don't know if Niangniang will have so much time to look at the entire Rongguo Mansion by then, isn't this tossing silver." ”

In fact, it is also changed every year during the Chinese New Year, Jiang Yan thinks that it is festive and lively enough, and she deliberately tosses it again in order to save her relatives, which is completely unnecessary.

Xie Jingxing knew more about the things in the palace, although there was no precedent for the provincial relatives before, and it was impossible to break the rules of the palace when he thought about it, so he guessed: "Even if the provincial relatives can't spend the night in the concubine's house, most of them have to rush back to the palace overnight, and it will take a lot of time to go to the provincial relatives alone, even if the Jia Mansion is completely new, presumably Concubine Xiande doesn't have that time to see it." ”

Jiang Yan said: "I think they are busy with their work, but everyone is in full swing, but it seems that I am not motivated." ”

"It's not that you're busy with it," Xie Jingxing doesn't have to guess the thoughts of these noble families, "They don't just show their mothers, next year, from nobles to concubines, there are not just one or two, each family is holding their breath and wants to earn a first, the courtyard is built, and other places can't be left behind." ”

Anyway, Jiang Yan can't understand this kind of thing of slapping a swollen face and becoming fat.

While the two of them were talking, a servant came in and said that the meal was ready and invited them over for dinner.

Xie Jingxing said: "Let's go, I also invite you to try local specialties." ”

Jiang Yan followed him to the next room, and suddenly remembered: "Why didn't you see the two of Buguang Yongan for so long?" Isn't Yongan what you follow everywhere? ”

Xie Jingxing said: "It's really unfortunate, the two of them went out today for something, and now I am in the border camp and I don't need Yong'an to follow." He thought for a moment and said, "They kept saying they wanted to thank you for the gloves and scarves you gave me before." ”

Jiang Yan said: "That's not a precious thing, where is it worth thanking." By the way, what did you think of the sweater last time? ”

Xie Jingxing smiled: "When did you send something bad?" I'm glad you gave me a sweater, otherwise I would have suffered. The wind in the north is really blowing into people's bones, and it is useless to wrap a few big sweaters, but I still feel that the wind is breathable. Today is Xiu Mu at home, I don't wear it, and I must put it on when I go out on weekdays. ”

Jiang Yan nodded and said, "I also think this place is cold to the bone," she said with some annoyance, "I knew this place was so cold, I would have given you another one." I'll weave it for you when I go back, and I'll definitely have to rest for a while after the Lantern Festival, and I'll send it to you when the time comes. ”

Xie Jingxing didn't want her to be busy anymore, but as soon as she heard her say that she was going to come over, she swallowed back the words that came to her lips and said with a smile: "Then I'll wait." ”

Jiang Yan thought that it was so cold here, and it was estimated that the role of the woolen sweater was limited, and the most important thing to get out should be the down jacket, but it was a pity that it was really inconvenient for her to be a maid, so she said to Xie Jingxing: "Actually, if you want to say that the down jacket is more suitable here, it is better for you to find someone to make the down jacket." ”

Xie Jingxing listened to it as a new term, and said according to his own understanding: "I do have a peacock feather woven coat, but it mainly looks gorgeous, and the warmth effect is average." ”

Jiang Yan snorted and laughed: "It's not this feather!" Down is actually the tiny fluff of chickens, ducks and geese, and your sweater is also made of the bottom fluff of the sheep, and the hair on it is too hard to spin at all. ”

Xie Jingxing was interested when he heard what she said, "Then do those down also have to be spun into thread?" ”

This is troublesome to say, Jiang Yan saw that the people had already set up the table, and hurriedly said: "Let's eat first, and then talk after eating, otherwise the dishes will be cold." ”

Xie Jingxing also had an appetite for the few Beijing dishes on the table, and stopped talking to Jiang Yan at the moment, and the two of them buried their heads in eating.

The two of them ate all five dishes, mainly Xie Jingxing, Jiang Yan looked at his stomach with some worry, "Don't eat it." Even if you miss the flavor of Beijing, you don't have to be so exaggerated. ”

Xie Jingxing rubbed his stomach, "It's okay, I didn't hold it." After I arrived in Yunzhou, I don't know if it was because of the increased exercise, or because of the influence of the locals, the amount of food has increased a lot, and today these are just a little exceeded. ”

Jiang Yan was speechless, "This is just a little exceeded?!" ”

Xie Jingxing smiled: "Are you scared? The people out there eat worse than I do. I'm younger than them. ”

Jiang Yan thought about Xie Jingxing this year is eighteen, well, there are examples of those male classmates in her previous life, it is not surprising how much she eats at this age.

Jiang Yan had no choice but to say: "If you can eat, you can eat more, just pay attention." If you like these, I'll bring them to you next time. ”

"Okay, I still like mutton soup the most."

The two of them got off the table as they spoke, and walked to the main house. Xie Jingxing remembered the topic before eating, "How did you make that down jacket you said?" ”
