Chapter 5. ravioli
Qingwen picked up a wonton, only to see that the wonton skin is thin and the filling is big, and the portion is full, a few drops of chili oil are dotted in the bowl, the red and bright oil droplets are scattered on the white soup noodles, with green green onions, one by one wontons loom in the soup, people can see the appetite, smell it, the thick meat aroma with the unique mellow aroma of flour, plus the green onion and chili oil that are a little bitter, why don't people want to send this white fat boy into their mouths, sure enough, after the entrance, the freshness of the fresh meat is mixed with the strong aroma of bone broth, Coupled with a little bit of spicy teasing, Qingwen couldn't wait to eat it.
Although Qingwen has eaten a lot more than before during this time, her appetite is much smaller than that of ordinary people, so she can't eat half of the wonton this night, Qingwen looked back and saw that Musk Yue's bowl was empty, and she was looking at her bowl, Musk Yue saw Qingwen looking over, and a few suspicious blushes flashed on her face.
"If you're done eating, let's go, the lanterns of the Lantern Festival are beautiful, boss, check out." Musk Yue hurriedly pulled Qingwen up and said.
The proprietress walked over and said, "Two girls, two bowls of wontons have a total of 8 Wen." Qingwen Musk Yue hurriedly took out her purse to settle the bill, and then walked towards the bright lights.
The street is very lively, each business shop has hung lanterns in front of the door, and the larger the façade, the more exquisite the lanterns hung at the door, the more the number is more, and there are several restaurants hanging out of the lantern array at the door, if anyone guesses the lantern riddle correctly, you can take away the lanterns on the lantern array, the more beautiful and exquisite the lanterns, the more difficult the lantern riddles.
Whenever someone guesses the lantern riddle correctly and takes the lantern, there will be Xiao Er from the building and take out a new and more beautiful lamp, Qingwen and Musk Yue and Musk Yue also guessed the two lanterns correctly, this is not what she came up with, after all, although the two maids have learned words with Baoyu for a few days, but the level is far from being able to guess the most popular lantern riddle at this time, these two are Baoyu in order to let them better remember the glyphs, specially told them.
When Xiao Er took down the lantern and handed it to Qingwen Musk Yue, he was stunned for a moment, the four maids in the Baoyu Courtyard were all beauties, and Qingwen was the most beautiful one among them, the beauty among the beauties.
The two of them looked at Xiao Er's stunned appearance, smiled at each other, and left with the lantern.
And that little two. If it weren't for the shopkeeper who came over and enjoyed a meal of fried chestnuts with sugar, I'm afraid I would have to stay a little longer.
The two of them carried a lantern and continued to walk forward, from time to time into various shops or to the stalls to stroll, if usually, such just to see and not buy, the boss must not be happy, but now the boss is too late to greet the guests, then there is still time to care about these.
Along the way, Qingwen visited the grain store cloth store, and also went to the vegetable stall to see people bargaining for vegetables, she also went to the jewelry store, and the two of them bought themselves a pair of silver earrings, Qingwen bought it like a leaf, and Musk Yue bought it like a drop of water.
In fact, the main purpose of Qingwen going to the jewelry store is not to buy things, but to see how much the jewelry she has been rewarded for, how much is it worth, as soon as she asked, Qingwen couldn't help but smile, and asked around, the cheapest pearl in her pile of things is worth eleven taels of silver, and the silver beads received last time Laba Festival, Qingwen saw another silver bead with different patterns but similar styles in the store, it was worth fifteen taels, Qingwen was happy in her heart, so she made an exception to buy silver earrings for herself, After all, she hadn't bought anything for herself since she decided to start saving money. After understanding the market price, Qingwen and Musk Yue began to shop easily, whether it was a clay doll mask, or a butterfly kite on the side of the road, whether it was a ceramic hairpin or a silk flower for the Lantern Festival, they all bought a lot, because these are often two or three cents a piece, and even the most expensive butterfly kite is only 10 cents a piece. Qingwen felt that she was very rewarding in this line, but she looked at Musk Yue and felt that she had gained more than herself along the way. At this time, Musk Yue's hand was full of food, sugar gourds, fried chestnuts, tiger skin peanuts, strange beans, candied apples, and the milk corner was full of hugs, but the other small things she bought were not conspicuous at all. While eating by herself, Musk Yue also persuaded Qingwen to eat, and easily stuffed Qingwen with a milk corner in her mouth. Qingwen forgot how much she had been fed by Musk Moon along the way. "Musk Yue, I don't see you so fond of these snacks in the house on weekdays, why do you buy so many today?" Qingwen was surprised. "It's not that I don't like to eat in the house, but there is no taste in the house, and you don't know the second master's problem, in his eyes, maybe all women are like Miss Lin, it's normal. Moreover, let me tell you secretly, once I ate a chicken leg in the room at night, and the second master knew about it the next day, and in those days, the second master looked at me like watching the fat chicken leg fall on the clothes. Musk Yue said, "I used to think that you were very annoying, and no one paid attention to you because you were beautiful, and you came to be a concubine for the second master." But now, I don't think you're like this, your temperament has become much better than before, and you don't go to the second master anymore. Are you like me, planning to ask your wife for a favor and let you go in a few years? "yes, that's what you think too?" Qingwen was pleasantly surprised. "Of course, and I've already figured out how I'm going to live my life." Musk Moon said with a shy face. "What is it? I'll refer to it if it's good or not. Qingwen was planning for the future, and she didn't notice the strangeness on Musk Yue's face at all, and said with curiosity on her face. Silly girl, I'll tell you later. Musk Yue blushed and turned into the house. Qingwen didn't know why, so she stayed in the yard and thought about it for a while, and then went back to sleep. On this day, Qingwen is picking flowers in the garden with two little maids, ready to use it to make rouge, this is the meaning of Baoyu, most of the people in the world to make rouge are steamed and dried with red and blue flowers, and then soaked and ground into powder. This eldest young master has called the maids red plum blossoms in the winter, and it is not bad to use, although the color is not as bright as the rouge on the market, but there is a good smell of plum fragrance, for those who do not particularly like to dress themselves up fancy girls, but it is just right, for example, the treasure girl in the house, there is a cold fragrance on the body, since the use of this homemade plum blossom powder, the fragrance on the body, closed eyes, can make people feel that they are in the cold winter plum forest, So this plum blossom powder is very much liked by the treasure girl.
The second master was happy when he heard it, so he gave all the boxes to Miss Bao, and on the day he sent it, Qingwen held the box and sent it over, but it happened that he met Miss Lin on the road, and sure enough, Miss Lin ignored Baoyu in those days, and after a few days, I heard that Baoyu didn't know how many good things she said, Miss Lin showed a little meaning, and sure enough, when she came back that day, Baoyu asked them to go to the garden to pick flowers, this time not only to make rouge, but also to make lipstick.
At this time, it is almost early summer, and although there are many flowers, the best bloom in the garden is a congcong rose. Qingwen felt that the roses were thorny, and the formal clothes were the same as Miss Lin's temperament, the roses bloomed in early summer, the flowers were warm and fragrant, and the colors were gorgeous, compared to other flowers, maybe it was just right for Miss Lin's mind.
Because roses have thorns and roses can be used in medicine, the best roses are generally planted in the medicine garden of the exclusive medicine hall of Jiafu.
So Qingwen took the two little girls to the medicine garden. As soon as I walked outside the medicine garden, I heard the sound of someone arguing.
"Doctor Wang, our second lady is also the master of the mansion, and she is the serious master of our Rongguo Mansion, how can you not save you when you die."
As soon as Qingwen heard this voice, she guessed that this was the eldest girl Siqi next to Jia Tanchun, the second lady in the house.
"Hey, Miss Siqi, I'm doing what Grandma Lian instructed, it's what Grandma Lian said, all the doctors have to go to Grandma Dongfu, you know, Grandma Dongfu's health is getting worse and worse these days." A male voice said.
"But our young lady is really sick, and she has vomited twice today." Si Qi said anxiously.
"Miss Siqi, I won't tell you, it's over if you go again, I'll go first." Doctor Wang arched his hand, then hurriedly walked out, went out, and bumped into Qingwen with two little girls outside, so he hurriedly said: "It turned out to be Miss Qingwen, I don't know if I came here to do it with you, but my body is uncomfortable, do you want Lao Yu to help you take a look?" “
Qingwen saw that he was condescending and respectful, looking at the dishes and dishes, she was very disdainful, and even the two little maids around her also looked down on him, showing disdain.
So Li ignored him and went straight into the garden. Qingwen walked into the garden, and saw Si Qi wiping tears under the wall, although there was no friendship in Su Ri, but he was also a maid, and he couldn't bear it, so he stepped forward, handed her the handkerchief in his hand, and comforted her: Don't cry, there is always a way, he didn't go to see the second lady, he didn't have a brain, and when he returned to his wife, he didn't pull out his skin and drove him out of the house. “
Si Qi took the handkerchief and cried: "But the doctors in the house have all gone to the East Mansion to see Grandma Rong sick, these powerful villains, seeing that our second miss is not favored by the old lady, they don't put our second miss in their eyes, but pity our second miss is a gentle and generous person on weekdays, but now that she is sick, she can't even invite a doctor." After Si Qi finished speaking, he continued to cry.
The two little maids comforted them again and again. At this time, Qingwen thought that Li Quan, Mama Li's nephew, would his father be Dr. Li in the house soon, so Qingwen walked into the pharmacy and asked the medicine boy in the pharmacy, Dr. Li, who was available, and the medicine boy said that Dr. Li had been on vacation for the past few days, and he had not gone to Dongfu, so he thought that he should be at home.
Thinking that it was also the medicine boy who saw Si Qi crying outside the door, he told Qingwen the address of Dr. Li's house in detail.
