"Isn't it too spicy? I'll give you a new one that's not spicy, right? He Shaoguang was a little worried, afraid that Lu Mingyan would not be used to the taste of dogwood oil.

"No... Need not. After Lu Mingyan finished sucking the last noodle and poured a big sip of tea, he regained his usual calm and uprightness, "Thank you, mother, for causing you trouble." ”

"You're welcome, are you still used to eating?"

"Delicious!" Before Lu Mingyan could react, Xiao Mingzhen happily answered He Shaoguang's question, "Mother is more powerful than the chef in the kitchen!" ”

Lu Mingyan nodded, He Shaoguang was amused by the child's fairy words, so he boasted to Haikou: "If there is nothing to do in the future, Mingyan can also bring Mingzhen here to eat, and my mother will cook all kinds of food for you!" ”

After playing with Lu Mingzhen for a while, after sending the two away, He Shaoguang was still a little drunk: raising a baby, especially a sensible and cute baby, is almost heartbroken.

The two children are not familiar with her now, but it is not difficult to see that the old lady has educated both of them very well, of course, this can be seen from the shadows of Lu Xiaowen and Lu Ruqing, and the education of the Guogong Mansion will not be bad.

There was nothing to do during the day, and it was raining lightly outside, so I didn't want to move at all when I went out, so I simply went to Haitang Garden to find Xu Ruyun to sit down.

Xu Ruyun has a gentle temperament, not as conspicuous as Shi Nianjiao, although she is a sister-in-law, the housework is handed over to Shi Nianjiao to manage, she is happy to be idle all day long, take care of her husband who has been sick for a long time, and do everything herself.

Lu Ruqing's illness was not lying in bed all the time, but when the seasons changed and the weather changed suddenly, he coughed again.

Since He Shaoguang came, he always wanted to visit his eldest brother, and as soon as he entered the room, he smelled a strong bitter smell of medicine, Lu Ruqing was crooked on the couch, the whole person was much thinner, and his face was pale. Xu Ruyun skillfully fed medicine and water on the side, and seemed to have long been accustomed to this kind of life.

Feeding him a complete dose of this medicine, Xu Ruyun tucked the corners of the quilt for him and carefully sorted out his messy hair.

Lu Ruqing held his wife's hand: "Go, don't worry about me, the second brother and sister are still waiting for you." ”

Xu Ruyun seemed to be uneasy, and turned around several times, and the other party watched her walk out of the room with a light smile on his face.

Xu Ruyun took He Shaoguang to the study to sit down, Lu Ruqing didn't work in the study for a while, but it was still clean and tidy, and the books were stored very well.

"Brother and sister are used to drinking? It's almost Qingming, and my father has newly harvested it from Hangzhou Tea Mountain, which will be able to pick another stubble and taste the treasures. Xu Ruyun picked up the tea set and cooked tea for He Shaoguang.

"In the past, I didn't love the taste of Longjing, but Ah Qing loved to drink it, so I accompanied him, and I have developed a habit for so many years." The tea is gurgling, overflowing with the unique fragrance of Longjing before the Ming Dynasty. In the fragrance of tea, Xu Ruyun talked about gossip.

"My sister-in-law and my eldest brother have such a good relationship, I look very envious." Looking around the study, there are many pictures of ladies hanging on all sides, all of which are Xu Ruyun's faces, sitting or lying, hairpins and makeup, more than ten large and small. It must have been painted by Lu Ruqing himself.

"When I married into the Lu Mansion, I was as nervous and restrained as you." Recalling the beginning, Xu Ruyun had a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, "Although the Xu family has some reputation in the south of the Yangtze River, but when they come to the capital, who cares about the daughter of a poor painter?" ”

"No matter what the outside world says, I like to paint, Ah Qing painted with poems, he is very literate, and the painting we completed together won the first prize at the banquet of the eldest princess. The world began to praise me again for being a rare talented woman, and I was a talented woman with A Qinglang, and I was a good couple. ”

"Big brother's illness... When was it serious? ”

"I can't remember" the smile on Xu Ruyun's face faded, "It's been about four or five years, I remember only having occasional coughs at first, and then I became weaker and weaker, and I was bedridden." Even if one day it's almost better, it will always be repeated every time the season changes. ”

"Fortunately, it didn't endanger her life, and my sister-in-law should also pay attention to her rest."

Judging from the poems and texts left on the desk in the study, Lu Ruqing is indeed an elegant person, and the poems he made are graceful and moving, with the sentence "The moon is like practice, and the length is a thousand miles", which expresses the sadness of being far away in Guangling and thinking about Xu Ruyun.

"It's an old poem, and I took it out a few days ago to sort it out, so that my younger brothers and sisters can laugh." Xu Ruyun smiled embarrassedly when she saw that she was looking at the poetry collection Lu Ruqing wrote to herself.

"It's very moving." He Shaoguang praised sincerely, "I'm embarrassed to drink such a good tea from my sister-in-law." Next time, I'll send some refreshments made by myself, and my sister-in-law will see if I like it. If you like it, I will send you to the Begonia Garden with tea, and you will spend the afternoon with tea and books. ”

"I heard that the second brother and sister are good at craftsmanship, so I took advantage." Xu Ruyun poured tea for her, "Actually, if the younger brother and sister feel that the house is boring, it is okay to let the second brother take you out of the house for a walk." Although the second brother was born as a military general, he is also very considerate. ”

Out of the house? He Shaoguang's eyes lit up.

After she went back, she was thinking about how to persuade Lu Xiaowen to accompany her out of the house with Xiu Mu's time.

"Ahem..." After Lu Xiaowen returned home, as soon as he stepped into the courtyard door, he habitually walked to the study, and saw his newly married wife leaning against the door of the small kitchen and stopping to speak.

"What... Did you have dinner? ”

Lu Xiaowen had just returned from the palace, and he hadn't had time to pass the meal.

"That's right, come and try my handiwork, right?"

He Shaoguang was still a little shy, this scene was like a loving couple, and the wife washed her hands and made soup for her husband.

Shhh

Lu Xiaowen walked to the table, and saw a bunch of different ingredients on the table, all of which were raw.

"Eat pot today?" Swallowed saliva unconsciously, Lu Xiaowen hadn't eaten much since he entered the palace in the morning, and the lunch in the palace had already been cold to their hands, and they usually had to deal with a few mouthfuls.

A casserole rack with a lid on the side is heated on a charcoal basin, and the pot exudes a fragrance that cannot be refused.

It's so fresh!

He Shaoguang walked over and personally lifted the lid of the casserole, and in an instant, the deliciousness of the chicken soup filled the entire dining room.

"It's not shabu-shabu, it's a casserole rice noodle with Yunnan flavor."

One person with a small pot, sitting facing each other.

When the lid was lifted, the chicken soup in it was glowing with golden oil, and He Shaoguang signaled that he could put any ingredients he liked into the pot, and then put the soaked rice noodles to simmer.

Lu Xiaowen picked up the thinly sliced meat that had been cut through, and curled up and changed color in the casserole after only a moment. Then he put in quail eggs, shredded chicken, egg-skin dumplings and green vegetables, and when they were all cooked, he brought them to the front, picked up rice noodles in a casserole, and ate them in a big gulp, and did not forget to drink a mouthful of chicken soup.

Since the afternoon, He Shaoguang has put the chicken soup on the stove and boiled it, and after a few hours, it has become very rich.

He Shaoguang likes to eat spicy food, and he put a lot of dogwood oil, and the red and bright luster makes people's appetite move when they look at it.

Lu Xiaowen enjoyed eating, and he didn't notice that the tip of his tongue was scalded by the hot rice noodles.

He Shaoguang intimately handed over iced fruit tea: "Drink this." ”

"You did it yourself, too?"
