Chapter 285: Two Favors

A few delicate side dishes, plus staple foods, minced porridge and the like.

The appearance is very homely, but the materials are exquisite, and the color and flavor are complete.

And each of them is the style of food that the two of them love to eat.

The Third Highness Qin Peiyou and He Yanxiu had not eaten for most of the day, and they were also hungry at this time, looking at those delicacies, their eyes were a little straight.

"Wait a little longer, there's an important dish." Qin Yishu said with a smile.

When the words landed, another palace maid came over with a food box, but this time there was also Concubine He Shuhua.

"Mother!" Qin Peiyou originally thought that it would be a little late to go to Concubine Shu to say goodbye after dinner here, and whether he would go again early tomorrow morning, but he never thought that he would see it here, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Weichen meets the lady concubine, and the mother is blessed." He Yanxiu also bowed uprightly.

"Good boy, get up." Concubine Shu helped Qin Peiyou and He Yanxiu to get up, and said with a smile, "I heard that the emperor said that you came back today, and remembered your hard work during this time, so I asked the imperial dining room to make a lot of food that you love." ”

"It just so happened that I saw that there was sea bass in the imperial dining room today, so I made you a steamed fish to eat."

"You also have a very good mouth today, this steamed fish I have talked many times, Shuhua refused to cook it himself, I heard that you came back, Shuhua cooked, I can also be regarded as a blessing to you, I can taste a bite."

Concubine Shu pursed her lips and smiled, "The emperor is making fun of the concubines, the emperor wants to eat and send someone to inform the concubines, but the concubines still have a reason not to do it?" It's just that the emperor rewarded him for losing in chess, and he was embarrassed to mention this matter to his concubines, but he relied on his concubines, and I really haven't seen such a reliant person as the emperor. ”

Qin Yishu smiled when he heard this, and his eyes were full of doting when he saw Concubine Shu.

The emperor is the ninety-five, the ministers are afraid, and the harem concubines are no exception, even the queen is trembling, following the rules, for fear that he will be half wrong.

Although this can ensure the rules of the harem, which makes people feel supremely honored, in the end, there is a lack of warmth and fun that many husbands and wives should have, which makes him still have some regrets even if he has a queen and a few concubines.

Until I met Concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu has both the dignified and beautiful daughter of a civil servant, and the bright and lively daughter of a military general......

Qin Yishu has always felt that in this huge harem, only in the concubine can he take off the thick armor on weekdays, as if he can get a moment of peace and relaxation like the husband of an ordinary family.

At this time, he had a table with Concubine Shu, and Qin Peiyou and He Yanxiu were present, Qin Yishu didn't let the eunuchs and palace maids on the side distribute vegetables, but only self-made chopsticks clips, and each gave Concubine Shu, Qin Peiyou and He Yanxiu a piece.

Qin Peiyou and He Yanxiu were just about to thank him, but were interrupted by Qin Yishu, "You have a meal together as a family, there are not so many rules, and you two children don't have to be restrained, just treat it as if you were in your own home." ”

"Yes." Qin Peiyou and He Yanxiu responded.

With Qin Yishu speaking, the palace maids and eunuchs on the side also retreated, and the atmosphere of the meal became much more relaxed.

Even Qin Peiyou and He Yanxiu served a lot more food with chopsticks every time they picked up vegetables.

Seeing that the two of them were very hungry and eating well, Qin Yishu and Concubine Shu also helped to put some meat and vegetables in their bowls from time to time.

"Aunt Xie." He Yanxiu paused, and when he faced the fish and meat that Qin Yishu had brought over, he said, "Thank you, uncle." ”

Qin Yishu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly, "This title is excellent, and it needs to be called often in the future." ”

Then he looked at Concubine Shu, "Speaking of which, Yan Xiu hasn't been called me like this for a long time." ”

"Yes." Concubine Shu nodded, "It's been more than ten years, Yan Xiu was only seven or eight years old at the time, and he accompanied the newly enlightened You'er to class in the study room, but he quarreled with the master because of a sentence, and the master wanted to punish Yan Xiu, Yan Xiu was not convinced, and only shouted that his uncle was the emperor, so angry that the master almost swollen his palm. ”

"Yes, I also remember this incident, Yan Xiu's palms were swollen like steamed buns, and he was stunned that not a single tear fell, and when he came to me, he said that the master was wrong, and his face was full of anger."

Qin Yishu said with a smile, "Speaking of which, more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the children have grown so old, these years are really unforgiving......

After a pause, Qin Yishu looked at He Yanxiu, his eyes full of amusement, "In this blink of an eye, Yan Xiu is already in his twenties, in this Manchu Dynasty, at your age, children can run away all over the hospital, but your marriage has never been settled, but what are your plans?" ”

"Uncle came to me, I didn't dare not tell the truth, I already had a plan." He Yan cultivated.

"Oh?" Qin Yishu and Concubine Shu suddenly came to their senses, "Let's hear it, what are your plans?" ”

"I can't talk about it for the time being......" He Yanxiu was a little embarrassed, "I can only say that I have a crush, but everything has not yet been settled, and we have to wait a little longer." ”

"When the time is right, I'm afraid that we will have to ask my uncle to marry us, and my uncle will not be allowed to refrain when the time comes."

The last sentence was very soft, but it was a bit coquettish.

Qin Peiyou squeezed his eyebrows and smiled on the side.

He Yanxiu threw a cold knife over, Qin Peiyou coughed lightly, and stopped his eating action, "Father should take this matter, my cousin is called a golden bachelor in the capital, and the iron tree that has not bloomed for 10,000 years is about to bloom this time, and my father has to fulfill my cousin for whatever he says." ”

"Although I don't know what kind of girl Yan Xiu likes, Yan Xiu has always been steady, and his vision must be good, Yan Xiu has nothing to ask you for this uncle, this time I opened my mouth, you are still embarrassed to refuse your nephew as an uncle?" Concubine Shu also joked on the side.

The son and daughter-in-law were chattering beside him, and Qin Yishu laughed louder, "Okay, okay, I will depend on you, in the end, I am my nephew, I am also very distressed, there is no reason not to be." ”

"But since I relied on you today, then you owe me two favors this time, what are you going to take to pay it back then?"

How did asking for a marriage become a debt twice?

Seeing Concubine Shu, Qin Peiyou and He Yanxiu were puzzled, Qin Yishu put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and explained, "You probably don't know about this matter. ”

"It was Yan Shangshu from the Ministry of Officials who came to look for me two days ago, saying that his only youngest daughter Yan Siying was in the year of marriage, with outstanding appearance and knowledge, and fell in love with Yan Xiu at first sight, and asked me to marry her, and specially asked me to marry Yan Xiu and Miss Yan."

Third Highness: Congratulations, I finally have a name!!!
