Chapter 208: She Took the Initiative to Hug Him
Xiao Qingqing, who was still worried about King Qi, heard King Qi's sentence "Do you want to take a petal bath", he couldn't help but think of some kind of indescribable picture, and his face suddenly changed.
"What nonsense are you talking about. I pick plum blossoms to make wine, wine, do you hear? Xiao lightly shouted at King Qi in annoyance. snatched the back basket from King Qi's hand, blushed, and went towards Mu Mansion.
Is it sake brewing? It turns out that Qingqing not only knows medical skills, but also begs for his mother, and he doesn't know how many things are still going on Qingqing's body. It's a pity that he doesn't have the opportunity to discover this little woman's thing little by little. He shouldn't have had a chance to taste the wine made by Dao Qingqing himself.
"Qingqing, you wait for me." King Qi took a long step and soon chased after Xiao Qingqing's side. He leaned his face to Xiao Qing's ear and said, "Qingqing, I said that in case, in case the poison on my body is not cured, when the time comes, can you use the plum blossom brewed by you to worship me?" β
The sudden approaching distance made Xiao lightly feel particularly uncomfortable, and he originally wanted to scold Xiao Qi a few words, but the sudden sentimental words made Xiao lightly stunned for a moment, and then said: "How is it possible, my father-in-law has found a way to cure the poison on your body, as long as you have all the medicinal materials, you can do it." β
"I'm kidding, didn't you say you want to make wine? I'll help you. An imperceptible bitter smile appeared on King Qi's lips.
"Okay." I don't know why Xiao Qi showed sad emotions, Xiao was unconsciously infected by this emotion, and she couldn't say the words of refusal, obviously she wanted to stay away from him.
Carrying plum blossoms, return to Mu House. Xiao gently found a clean container and made plum blossom brew according to the steps she remembered.
First of all, you should use water to rinse the plum blossoms, try not to hurt the petals, it is necessary to carefully clean one petal at a time. Then place on a sieve and drain the water.
When the petals are dry, put 25 to 35 percent plum blossoms in a container, and the remaining space is filled with shochu with an alcohol concentration of 30 to 35 percent. After pouring the shochu, seal the container and store it in a cool place away from light for about one to two months. (The author's ability is limited, and the brewing of plum blossom wine is the author's Baidu...... Please bear with me if something is wrong. οΌ
Well, in fact, the whole process is sauce purple.
Xiao gently found the container and went to fetch water, but was robbed by King Qi.
"Do you want water? I'm here to help you. β
After beating the water, the next step is to wash the petals, Xiao gently and carefully grabbed a handful of petals, put them in the pot, and prepared to wash them one by one.
King Qi gently pulled Xiao up, and couldn't find a towel, so he gently wiped Xiao's hands with his sleeve, and said, "It's cold, the water is too cold, I'll help you wash it, and you can just watch it from the side." β
"I'm not so-" Before the word Jiaogui could be spoken, he was interrupted by King Qi.
"You see your hands are frozen red, so let me come."
Xiao Qingqing: ......
"Is that so?" King Qi learned from Xiao Qing's appearance, and cleaned the petals in a decent manner, but he didn't break the petals.
"Yes." Xiao nodded slightly, a little strange that a pampered prince like King Qi could do such a rough job.
"Are you wondering why I can do this without fear of hardship? Actually, I'd rather be born in an ordinary family, with a loving mother and a filial ......," King Qi said with some sadness. "Since I can remember, there has only been a cold palace, and there are a few palace maids and eunuchs who bully the lord, Sister Huang and the royal brother who bullied me, I have no mother and concubine, and my father has never cared about me."
King Qi's understatement words summarized the suffering he had suffered before, but Xiao listened to it softly in his ears, but it was full of sadness.
"Where's your mother?" Originally, he shouldn't have asked this kind of question, but Xiao Qing couldn't help but ask. There is no concubine, so you don't need to ask, and you can probably guess that it is just a woman who died of palace intrigue.
"I don't know, since I can remember, I haven't seen her, those palace maids and eunuchs have always kept silent about my mother and concubine, I don't get any news, and my father has never mentioned it, I have asked my father, but my father was furious because of this incident, and asked someone to beat me, and after that, I never dared to mention my mother in front of my father." King Qi replied patiently, his voice was very flat, and he couldn't hear joy or anger.
"It's okay, your mother must love you, but she doesn't have a chance to take care of you." Xiao said softly comfortingly.
Love him? Does a woman who abandons herself in a cold place like the palace, but who stays out of it and survives, loves him? King Qi's heart was sour, but he didn't want to mention it to Xiao gently.
"Then when you were a child, they bullied you, don't you know to fight back?" Xiao continued to ask softly. "Forget it, don't talk about it, I shouldn't ask about your past, it's your scar after all."
"It's okay, those things don't hurt me anymore." King Qi said indifferently. "I was very young, they bullied me, and I didn't have the power to fight back."
I don't know why, Xiao suddenly wanted to hug Xiao Qi. She thought that Xiao Qi was born with a golden soup spoon, and the calculation formula had no family affection, and she would not be too bad, but she didn't expect Xiao Qi to be so unlucky.
Xiao Qingqing not only thought so, but also did so. She walked behind King Qi, put her arm deep, and hugged King Qi from behind. Her head was just as high as King Qi's shoulders.
Qingqing actually hugged herself, King Qi's body began to become a little stiff, and somewhere in his body, he actually reacted, and secretly scolded himself for not making a profit. If he knew that he would tell Qingqing about this, Qingqing would hug him, and he would have said it a long time ago. But from this incident, King Qi also knew a truth, Qingqing, this girl, has a very soft heart, he seems to be able to take advantage of this and get close to her, no, what is he thinking? Whether he can survive or not is still unknown, how can he be so selfish to make Qingqing like him, and then ruthlessly leave her alone.
"It's okay, you're stillβ" What about me. The last two words were stuck in Xiao's soft throat and didn't come out. She can't say that, sooner or later she will have to separate from King Qi, first of all, not with her father-in-law, but she promised her father-in-law that she would let him leave when the poison on King Qi's body was resolved.
It's okay, what else do you have? King Qi was nervous and didn't dare to move, he was looking forward to the second half of Qingqing's words, but he was afraid. That's right, he is now a contradiction, on the one hand, he hopes that Qingqing can like him, but on the other hand, he doesn't want Qingqing to like him.
