"In the past, I went back, and the willows followed; Now I think about it, the rain and snow are falling. ”

Looking at the beautiful woman in the red cloak in front of him, Xiao Rui couldn't help but think of this sentence from "The Book of Poetry: Xiaoya".

Stepping forward with a smile and directly holding Xiangcheng's hands, Xiao Rui said warmly: "It's cold weather, why are you here?" ”

Xiangcheng Qiao's face was slightly red, there are so many people, you will hold hands when you come up? I was stunned for a moment and forgot to answer.

Xiao Changle next to him pursed his lips and said dissatisfiedly: "Big brother is so partial, he only pulls my sister's hand, don't care about me, hum!" It's a shame that people still remember to bring you delicious food. ”

Turning around and seeing the little guy's expression, Xiao Rui couldn't help laughing, hugged Xiao Changle up, and pinched her little face affectionately, "You little girl, how old are you to learn to be jealous?" ”

"Oh, hurry up and let me down, don't you hug me! My sister gives you a hug. "Xiao Changle is still angry, which means that you didn't hug me first, it's too late now, it's not good to coax that.

"Your sister is too heavy for me to hold onto. Let's go into the tent and talk, and let me see what delicious food you have brought me? Xiao Rui held Xiao Changle in one hand and pulled Xiangcheng into the tent with the other, and the people who were busy inside had already saluted and fled.

Princess Xiangcheng pretended to be disgusted and said, "Are you saying that I'm too fat?" ”

"Huh? Hi! I'm coaxing a child, so don't make a mess. Where are you fat? Doesn't Datang advocate fat as beauty? Xiao Rui actually looked up and down.

"Phew! Lecher. Who told you that Datang is beautiful with fat? ”

When has the princess been seen so presumptuously? couldn't help but scold, turned around and beckoned the next person to come in with something.

Xiao Rui touched his nose, "Isn't it?" Am I mistaken? ”

After thinking about it carefully, the women around me, as well as those noble ladies and palace concubines, really, none of them are fat, which is enough to prove that the Tang Dynasty is not fat now. When did that start? Yang Guifei is notoriously fat, right? Could it be the Tianbao period a hundred years later?

Seeing that one by one food boxes were brought in, Xiao Rui looked confused, "Are you using a carriage to pull a kitchen?" ”

Princess Xiangcheng said: "I heard my father say that you have been eating and living with the craftsmen at the construction site all day long, and you have not rested for a moment for several months. The food on the construction site is all rough scraps, and you must not be able to eat or sleep well. Today's heavy snow, I will take my little sister to see you, and by the way, I will improve your food. You see, these are all ingredients from the Imperial Dining Room, and even the cooks are brought by the Imperial Dining Room. ”

Improving food? What the Imperial Dining Room brings?

Xiao Rui's face was quite strange, and the appearance of wanting to speak at the moment made Xiangcheng very puzzled, why, did I do something wrong?

"How do you know if I can't eat or sleep well on the construction site?" Xiao Ruiqiang held back a smile and asked.

Xiao Changle chuckled, pointed at Xiao Rui and said, "Big brother, you can't lie." Look in the mirror for yourself, you're tanned and skinny, anyone can see it. On the way here, I made a bet with my sister that if you are such a smart person, you must have good food and fun, so you will be fine. ”

"My sister didn't believe it, but said that you had suffered for a few months. He also said, after meeting, if you get black, then I will admit defeat. Hmph, I lost five taels of silver, big brother, you have to compensate me. ”

Xiao Rui rubbed Xiao Changle's brain, "Okay, you bring your gift first." ”

Xiao Changle found the smallest food box, opened the lid, and solemnly took out a wooden box, "This is the candy from Lingnan, I am reluctant to eat it, I have saved it for a long time to have such a box, and I brought it all to you." ”

Candy?

Xiao Rui opened it curiously, this is candy? There is not even a package, isn't this just a rock candy granules with yellowish eyes and impure texture?

After thinking about it for a while, I realized that in this era, science and technology are not developed, and there are technical checkpoints in sugar and salt production, and those who can afford to eat salt are not poor. And those who can afford to eat sugar must be nobles, and those who can afford to eat such high-quality sweets must be top nobles. The average person may have never seen what sugar is in their entire life.

Moved to pick up Xiao Changle, he kissed him, "Okay, my brother didn't hurt you in vain." ”

"Oh, sister, look at him, he, he kissed me again...... Didn't my father say that you can't let people kiss you? Xiao Changle was not sensible yet, he only knew that the adults were not allowed to ask for it, so he struggled to escape from Xiao Rui's clutches and dragged Xiangcheng to refuse.

Xiangcheng said angrily: "Don't tease your little sister, men and women don't kiss, the queen mother is already letting people call her etiquette." ”

"Etiquette? Good little girl, what etiquette to learn? "Xiao Rui hates that set very much, and in the future generations, it will be called strangling innocence.

"Okay, look at your dirt, hurry up and clean up, change your clothes, and get ready to eat." Xiangcheng said disgustedly.

This, this...... Or? Shall we go to the city to eat? Xiao Rui proposed.

Xiangcheng was puzzled, "Huh? Why? The palace kitchen skills are very good, although not as good as your mother Wu, but it also has a unique flavor. ”

Seeing the people brought by Xiangcheng constantly busy, Xiao Rui didn't dare to tell the truth, and instead pulled Xiao Changle and said, "Little sister, how about you give your brother candy, how about my brother take you to taste the food in our canteen?" You haven't eaten a big pot yet, have you? ”

"Huh? Big brother, you don't want to trick me, do you? People invite you to eat such delicious candy, but you take me to eat it, eat unpalatable? Xiao Changle had a bitter face, and his eyes were full of suspicion.

Xiao Rui couldn't help but laugh and said, "Who told you that the food in my canteen is unpalatable?" Can my brother pit you? ”

"Really?" Xiao Changle recalled, it seems that the big brother really didn't deceive anyone.

"Little girl, you were born with fine clothes and food, and you haven't eaten a big pot of rice, right? It should be exercised and grounded. Xiao Rui flickered.

Xiangcheng glanced at him, twisted the soft flesh on Xiao Rui's waist, and complained: "Are you educating Changle?" Or are you talking to me? People kindly brought you the food from the imperial dining room, but you are like this? If you don't give a reason today, don't blame Princess Ben for being angry. ”

The people who were busy, hearing this, hurriedly lowered their heads, bowed down and quietly retreated.

Seeing that there was no one, Xiao Rui whispered: "The cook I used at the construction site is from Xiaojiazhuang, and his craftsmanship is unique, although the big pot dishes don't look very good, but they are definitely better than those made by the imperial kitchen." ”

Yes??? You......

Xiangcheng looked at his fiancé in surprise, this, this is okay?

Xiao Rui said proudly: "Look at my construction site, three or four months, six months of work, this full food accounts for half of the credit." ”

Xiao Changle's eyes lit up, "Wow! So, sister, let's bet I won! Hehe, I knew that the big brother wouldn't treat himself badly. Everywhere he went, there was something to eat. ”

Xiangcheng stretched out his finger and doted on his sister's head, "You, you are the most clever when you are greedy." ”

As he spoke, he took out five taels of silver, Xiao Changle took it and turned it around, five taels of silver, you can buy a lot of delicious food.

"Then what if I've already asked people to prepare so many imperial meals?" Xiangcheng asked regretfully.

Simple.

Xiao Rui walked out of the tent and greeted his subordinates nearby: "Come, come, come, you all come here, the princess has visited you on behalf of Her Majesty, and has specially prepared the imperial meal for you, ordinary people don't have this blessing." ”

Wow! One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and soon a group of people flocked to it, Xiao Rui arranged everything, pulled Xiangcheng and Changle, and quietly came to the construction site canteen.

"Wow...... It's so fragrant, it's really more fragrant than the inside of the imperial dining room, big brother, what are you doing here? ”

As he was talking, a few people walked into the back kitchen, and Xiao Changle grew his mouth in surprise, "Wow, such a big pot?" Much bigger than my sister's bathtub......"

Xiangcheng grabbed his sister and covered the little guy's mouth, what nonsense? What bathtub?
