Chapter 69: Cooking
Zhao Surui spent most of the day in bed before entering Yanjing, and he didn't know if it was because of the liver fire, he felt more and more distended pain in his lower abdomen, which was not the same as the soreness during the last menstrual incident, and he bled more.
He was uncomfortable, but a few maids thought it was a good thing, especially Ah Chi, although there were still two grievances on his face, he was still happy to see the changed menstrual belt:
"Last time, the girl had some blood stasis, but this time it is much better, the girl still has to wear more clothes and not freeze."
Zhao Surui was lying on the bed, his whole body shrunk in the quilt, and only a pair of eyes were exposed, watching Ah Chihuan happily collect the menstrual belt he had used, and his heart was weak for a while.
"Shen Yan's little waste is settled?"
"Don't worry, the girl has settled in the side courtyard, and it just so happens that Qingying has moved to the backyard when she is well, I asked people to tear down the former Buddhist hall to make room, just so that she can live with Xiaobao and Xia He as companions, and it will not be cold to light a charcoal basin in the house."
Zhao Surui said "um": "Let Shen Yan's two old servants take care of him, you don't have to take care of it except for the necessary work, he is already sixteen years old, crying and crying all day long, and he doesn't look the same."
Ah Chi nodded in response.
Looking at her face, Zhao Surui blinked his eyes: "Ah Chi, you won't still hold a grudge against me for what I said to you today, right?"
Ah Chi was silent.
Zhao Surui laughed: "Some things are right when you say them, and some things you shouldn't say when you say them, you can't say them, you are my maid, the first thing you should think about is how to follow my wishes, this point, you are far inferior to Tu Nan." If your daily life is trivial, you can say a few more words, I know that you are faithful, but there are some things that loyalty alone is not enough, you have to use your brain."
Maybe it was because he was bored lying in bed, Zhao Surui rarely had some interest in teaching the little maid, and he turned slightly sideways to look at Ah Chi:
"Do you know why Tunan did what I wanted?"
Ah Chi pursed his lips, a little angry and a little deflated: "Tu Nan is smarter than me."
"No, Tu Nan knows what it means to be number one." Zhao Surui stretched out a finger from the quilt and cocked it in the air, "First, reason. Whether he knew it or not, Shen Yan was a prostitute as a lifter, which violated national law. I want to punish her according to the law of the country, how can you, a maid, plead for mercy? If I obey your plea and spare him, will it not seem that I have become a pervert?"
The maid in the light cyan cotton armor thought for a while and nodded:
"Girl, Ah Chi knows that he is wrong, Ah Chi just thinks that it is really hard for you to support yourself in the Zhuangzi alone, and you can rely on Brother Yan more when you come......
"Am I dependent on him?" If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't sit up, Zhao Surui would have to sit up, "What can I rely on on that crying little waste?" Do I rely on him to do it for me or do I lead the troops for me? Is he better at cooking than Tunan or is he better at writing essays than you? Well? Even if he comes to Japan to pay homage to the prime minister, our Zhuangzi people still eat my grain, spend my money, and listen to me, what does it have to do with him? He still has to thank me, if I don't beat him, he will be beaten in the next place, and then it will not be Tunan who hurts him and does not hurt his bones."
Zhao Surui is such a smart person, of course, he can see that Tu Nan took care of his own mind while not letting Shen Yan really get hurt. ….
He didn't feel disgusted with Tu Nan's "thoughts", because he was thoughtful enough to think about everything he didn't think.
This kind of behavior that can save face for the master reminds him of a chicken far away in the palace.
From a chicken, he thought of Shen Sanzhu, who was being Emperor Zhaode.
In a bad mood, Zhao Surui withdrew his little hand outside the quilt: "Tell Tu Nan, get me some meat to eat at night, I have lost so much blood, I have to make up for it." Didn't you just kill a sheep today? Ask Tu Nan to stew the lamb ribs for me, stew them to a rotten point, and get some garlic sauce and leek sauce or something."
The stewed lamb chops dipped in garlic sauce are also delicious, or Zhao Surui only knew it after eating it once in Zhuangzi, and the meat made by Tu Nan did not have the slightest fishy smell, and it was only full of oil soup and fresh fragrance when it was dipped in the sauce.
Thinking about it, the wise and martial Emperor Zhaode swallowed
Water.
"Let her put some radishes in the soup."
"Yes."
Seeing that his girl was sleepy, Ah Chi put down the bed tent and added a few pieces of frost charcoal to the charcoal basin before withdrawing.
Walking to the kitchen, Ah Chi happened to see Tu Nan carrying water from the well, and half of the mutton was propped up in the wooden basin and was watered through.
"What do you want to eat when you're here?"
Looking up and seeing Ah Chi, Tu Nan threw the barrel back into the well and shook off his hand, which was already red from the cold.
As usual, she would take off her outer clothes when cooking, and only one of her clothes had been splashed with water, the sleeves of which were rolled up to the crooks of her arms, and the hem of her horse-faced skirt was rolled up and tucked into the waist bundle from both sides.
Seeing her appearance, Ah Chi hurriedly took a clean handkerchief and wiped her hands: "You work so much to take care of your body, you still touch the cold water on a cold day, obviously you still have a menstrual affair."
"I'm fine, I've been used to it since I was a child, but you, don't be angry with me?"
Ah Chi paused on his hand, and viciously smoothed Tu Nan's shirt: "Don't think that I forgot about you picking up the girl to take back the house!" Tu Nan, I can't figure out what's wrong with a peaceful and stable life, since the girl doesn't remember, let the matter pass, why do you bother to bring it up again?"
"I'm thinking about the future, too."
Tu Nan's tone was light, and he squatted down again and continued to wash the sheep in the basin.
Ah Chi saw that there was hot water on the stove next to him, so he poured some into the basin on the side, mixed cold water in it, rolled up his sleeves and dipped it, it was warm.
"You wash with this water."
Tu Nan was as good as a stream, carrying a leg of mutton to change the pot.
"What did you just say?"
"Naturally, after the girl and Xie Fengan reconciled, the girl must have a place to stay." Tu Nan glanced at Ah Chi, "Even if the girl can take this Zhuangzi from the Xie family, you won't think about letting the girl live on this Zhuangzi for the rest of her life, right?" The Shen family's previous mansion was the place where the old lady used to live, even if the Shen family wanted to take it by force, they had to weigh it, and the benefits of living there were ten times more than living in a nearby place?"
"But the Shen family ......"
"In the past, the Shen family couldn't help the lady and the girl, and now it's the same." ….
Ah Chi still frowned, "But there are too many troubles involved! What if we show our tracks in Yanjing City and let the Xie family target us?"
"It doesn't matter." The clear water washed through the sheep's cavity, and Tu Nan crushed a bit of broken blood on the side of the bone, "Yanjing City is so big, what is the Xie family? Rest assured, since our girl woke up, he hasn't lost?"
Ah Chi was still worried: "Our girl is a girl's family after all, and there are no brothers outside and no ...... inside."
"Ah Chi, even if our girl has nothing, she has come to this day step by step, no matter how worried you are, you can't have one more biological brother for the girl, and you can't resurrect the old lady. Instead of thinking about this, you should think about how to make our girl's difficult path a little smoother. After all, even if those of us who are maids break our hearts for the girl, in the end, we will follow the girl on the road."
This is like a persuasion, and it is also like an admonition.
The maid in the cyan cotton bikini was silent.
She has always felt that she is not smart enough, when Chuiyun is still there, the girl trusts Chuiyun the most, and everything is left to her to do, Chuiyun is married, and the girl trusts Tu Nan the most, she has always felt that Tu Nan is better than herself because of the love affair with the girl, so after the girl lost her memory, she moved forward with everything, and sometimes even thought about making the girl feel that Tu Nan was just a maid who knew some cooking skills, and Tu Nan was not like her to rob, and she was willing to stay in the kitchen all day when she was not on duty.
Sometimes when she watched the girl talk to herself coquettishly and angrily, and left all the internal accounts to herself, Ah Chi would even feel that she had really succeeded.
But in the end, it was Tu Nan who understood the girl best.
The girl said that Tu Nan knew how to go along
The girl's heart.
Tu Nan said that they were just following the girl.
It seems that she is in a hurry and has a white face and wants to fight for something.
Stunned to see Tu Nan wash the sheep and take out a knife and start cutting the sheep bones, Ah Chi's eyes suddenly became hot, and tears rolled out.
"Tu Nan, I ......"
"By the way, you haven't told me what the girl wants to eat? She wants to eat mutton, right?"
"Ah, girl, she wants to eat lamb's ribs and ribs, and make sure you stew them to the fullest, with garlic sauce and leek sauce. The mutton soup also has turnips."
Tu Nan smiled: "Today, I have a liver fire and I want to eat mutton so dry, then I will make a mung bean sprout for the girl, the mutton soup will be delicious, and I will make a few more cakes for the girl."
As soon as Tu Nan interrupted, Ah Chi couldn't say anything to apologize, she wiped her eyes and stood up: "The girl has looked a little fatter in the past two months, and she moves stones every day, and she is much healthier than before."
"Yes, I ate a lot, too." After speaking, Tu Nan had already taken up the knife and used a bone chopping knife to unload the entire lamb ribs.
Ah Chi took a deep breath, only to feel that her lungs were full of cold bloody gas, which made her competitive heart fade a lot.
"I'll go back first, and you can put on your clothes well."
Turning around, Ah Chi walked a few steps and heard Tu Nan call her again.
"Ah Chi, a while ago I said that the girl is different from before, you said that you just want the girl to live a happy life, do you know what I think?"
"What I think is that those who have bullied the girl in the past and made the girl feel wronged, I want the girl to trample them under their feet one by one."
Ah Chi turned around and saw Tu Nan casually throwing the knife into the vegetable table made by the elm mound.
When he said this sentence in a bland tone, the mediocre-looking maid's eyes showed a kind of anger that Ah Chi had never seen.
It was as if she was holding not a leg of lamb in her hand, but the necks of some people who had already washed them to the slaughter.
Zhao Surui didn't know what else was secretly going on between his maids, and even if he knew, he wouldn't take it to heart.
In the evening, he ate a beautiful meal of mutton, and the next day he cultivated for another day, and by the end of the night, he felt that his body was completely healed.
Not only can he tear up a few wastes of the Shen family, but he can also not fall behind in the competition with Shen Sanrui.
Yes, it's time for them to talk to each other every three days.
"Shen Sanru, Shen Sanru, Shen Sanru, your little cousin's nose and eyes are red when he cries, is it the same when you cry?"
"If Your Majesty wants to see it, I can cry for you immediately, and then find a painter to draw it and send it to Zhuangzi for you overnight."
The woman who looked down at the fold said indifferently as always.
Zhao Surui: "......".
