Speaking of which, this capital is really big, but in a certain aspect, the capital is actually very small. Within three days, Mrs. Jing'anhou was hit by her brother-in-law on the street, and she couldn't bear to beat people. and the fact that the Zhenguo Mansion sent people to make trouble spread throughout the capital.

Those officials who were good friends with Shen Hongjun sent their family members to inquire. In addition, those women who admired and admired Yunxue also sent people to hand out posts and gifts to express their concern.

No matter who came, Yun Xue avoided it, and only let Aunt Fang and Aunt Fu come forward to entertain. Aunt Fang had no choice but to release the news of Yun Xue's pregnancy. It was only said that Yun Xue was unwell and was recuperating.

After such news is released, and after everyone's interpretation, the entire capital almost knows about it. The Zhenguo Mansion didn't like this daughter-in-law from a peasant family, so after Jing'an Hou led the troops to the battle, the people of the Shen family showed their true colors. disgusted and insulted Han, so that the troublesome Han had a fetal gas, and now he is recuperating in bed.

This kind of news is not only known to the relatives of the Shen family, but even the old prince and his wife in the Zhuangzi outside the city, as well as the emperor and empress in the palace.

The old Guogong and his wife were furious, and returned to the Guogong Mansion angrily, scolding Shen Xuan and his wife. And Shen Ningyan also asked people to call the Yun family to the palace, which was another lesson.

When the Yun clan came out of the palace, he was simply angry. What the hell is going on here? Obviously, it was the woman who started beating people, why is it that the Guogong Mansion is not taking advantage of it now? The Yun clan was reprimanded one after another, and this anger was naturally all counted on Yun Xue's head.

The Yun clan consulted with Shen Hongcong about how to avenge this. But under the discussion of the two mothers, they were also at a loss. The key is that Yun Xue is now nesting in the Hou Mansion and can't come out, no one can see them, and they can't do anything.

"There has been no progress in the south, how long has it been, why hasn't there been any movement?" Yun complained with annoyance.

"Mother, don't worry, that person is in the midst of thousands of troops, where can he succeed so easily? The son sent someone to urge him again, and maybe there would be good news soon. If you want me to say, let's not be too anxious about this, and wait until we are sure that the south side is successful. ”

Shen Hongcong saw that his mother was in such a hurry, and hurriedly persuaded him.

"How's it going on with you? Are you all right? Yun also knew that these things were in a hurry, so he took a deep breath and suppressed all the anxiety and anger in his heart. Seeing her son walking back and forth on the ground, as if nothing was wrong, she asked.

The injury on Shen Hongcong's buttocks was not particularly serious, and it was already healed in two or three days, "It's okay, it's already healed." Mother, you have a good rest in the house, and my son goes out to inquire about the news. ”

Yun nodded, "Okay, you go out with a few more people, but you are not allowed to do anything else." ”

Shen Hongcong held back in the Guogong Mansion for six or seven days, which already made him feel uncomfortable. But Shen Xuan and the Yun family have never allowed him to go out again, and they really suffocated him. Right now, under the pretext of inquiring about the news, why don't he hurry out?

Shen Hongcong took a few guards and hurriedly walked out, just when he ran into Shen Hongxiao and Shen Hongluo. The three of them are all uncomfortable masters who don't go out for a day to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, and this time they were detained by their parents in the house for these days, it was like going to prison.

The three brothers didn't say a word, and went out of the house with people. When I came to the gambling house on West Street, I heard a noise and shouting inside as soon as I entered the door. When the three brothers heard these shouts, they felt as if they were hearing fairy music, and they felt comfortable all over.

A few bewitching women dressed up over there came over, and they surrounded the three brothers, "Yo, Shen Gongzi, I haven't been here for a few days, and the slave family thinks that Gongzi has forgotten about the slave family." A woman put her arm around Shen Hongcong and said coquettishly.

As the woman spoke, the fullness on her chest rubbed twice on Shen Hongcong's arm. It doesn't matter now, Shen Hongcong feels a little dry-mouthed.

It stands to reason that a hungry ghost like him has tasted it for any kind of woman. There are groups of wives and concubines in the family, and the rings are fat and thin, and they have their own characteristics. But there are few women who can be as passionate and bold as the women here. Even the ones in the Qinglou elsewhere can't compare to here. This feeling has fascinated many people.

Shen Hongcong stretched out his hand and hugged the woman, "I haven't been here for a few days, but your impatiens are becoming more and more delicate, this small appearance makes my heart itch when I see it." Come, accompany you to play a few games first, and when you win money, I will have fun with you. As he spoke, he rubbed his hand on the woman's body several times.

The woman didn't care, and giggled, "Okay, the slave family will accompany the son and go to gamble a few times." Today's son wants to show his might, and it's good to kill them all. ”

"Look at this little mouth, he can talk a lot, he likes it." Shen Hongcong hugged the woman lightly and kissed her heavily on the lips. Then he laughed, and took the woman around to the table.

This gambling house is a newly opened one in the capital, the place is very large, and the courtyard is several entrances before and after. Facing the street is a small two-story building, which is used as a gambling house. There were also many rooms in the backyard that were reserved for the women.

In a certain room in the middle of the courtyard, there were several men sitting, drinking tea and chatting. Then a kid ran from the front, and when he came in, he said with a smile, "Master Qian, the three brothers are here again today, do you think they will lose or win today?" ”

"Give them some sweetness first, let them win some. It doesn't matter, no matter how much they win, they have a way to pull out the silver. In the end, the money didn't go anywhere else. It was Qian Mingyuan who answered, he held the tea bowl in his hand and said with a smile.

The kid nodded, "Okay, got it." As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Remember, this April, as long as they come, let them win, it doesn't matter how much they win. Out of April, we're going to get back to basics. Another man in the room with a scar on his face instructed.

The boy was stunned for a moment, then understood what it meant, and walked out quickly.

In the room, several people continued to drink tea with a smile. "As soon as the fish bites the hook, it doesn't want to run anymore. When the time comes, it's time to become our appetizer. ”

The three Shen Hongcong brothers, who were still gambling to their heart's content, naturally didn't know that they had become prey in the eyes of others, and they were now completely obsessed with the excitement of gambling.

At this time, in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, the mothers-in-law in the kitchen sent over a few food boxes, which were full of all kinds of snacks.

Yun Xue led Aunt Fang, Rulan and the others, and was tasting these snacks one by one. There are several of them, fluffy and floppy, golden in color, covered with honeycomb-like holes.

"Madam, according to your instructions, Lao Guo in the house has made no less than twenty times, and finally made the kind of snack you requested." Hongjuan smiled and took a piece of snack, put it in his mouth and ate it. Then he kept nodding, "Don't say it, this kind of cake that Madam said tastes so good, soft and tender, sweet but not greasy, delicious." ”

Yun Xue also took a piece and tasted it, "It's okay, this Lao Guo's craftsmanship is really good, it's good." Rulan, reward Lao Guo with two taels of silver, well done. ”

Not to mention, this Lao Guo is indeed a talent, he really made a cake according to Yun Xue's request. And, to be honest, this taste seems to be better than the ones Yun Xue ate in her previous life.

"If only there was cream, or jam, and if you put it on it, you can make a lot of tricks." Yun Xue sighed.

"Cream? What's that? When Rulan heard Yun Xue's words, she felt a little strange, so she asked.

"It's something that comes out of milk." Yun Xue shook her head, she really hadn't seen cream in this era, she asked Lao Guo a few days ago, and Lao Guo also said that she hadn't seen it.

Come to think of it, these dairy products should still be eaten more by the ethnic groups on the grassland. Because history has taken a fork in the road in this time and space, the Yuan Dynasty that should have appeared did not appear, and the customs of those steppe nomads were not familiar to the people of the Great Zhou.

"It doesn't matter if you don't have cream, it won't be long before you have jam. When the time comes, you can use the jam on these snacks according to Madame's method. Red Silk didn't care, and said with a smile. Actually, I think it's delicious even without jam. This kind of thing will definitely sell very well. ”

Yun Xue planned to get a dim sum shop, and Lao Guo, the dim sum chef who happened to follow him from Linjiang Prefecture, made a good dim sum. Yun Xue had the heart to let him pick the beam, so he asked Lao Guo to experiment with making cakes and other snacks, and then the big guys came to taste it together to see how the effect was.

In the past few days, Lao Guo has been busy, and today he really made the cake. Looking at the big guy's satisfied look, Yun Xue felt that this thing might really be able to do it.

"I don't know how Madame's brain grows, it's just to get along with something we can't think of. I like this cake very much, it's soft and delicious, like those who are older, they will like it very much. "Aunt Fang ate two pieces of this cake and thought it was very good.

"Since my aunt said yes, she can't be wrong. In that case, let's open a dim sum shop in the capital. I don't want anything else, just to sell the wild fruits in the mountains of our hometown. With those wild fruits to add color, I believe that this dim sum shop will not be too bad. ”

Aunt Fang was born in the court, and she has seen a lot of good things, she can say that it is really good.

"Let Lao Guo make more cakes early tomorrow morning, and then send someone to the Zhuangzi next door, so that Dong Lao and Lao Guogong can taste it."
