Chapter 15: Morning Dream Talk
By the time I dismounted, it was already light.
Whenever the cold internal force in the body is activated, the energy of the whole body is stimulated and the meridians are opened. If you have complete control over this force, you can adjust your functions and rejuvenate yourself. So I'm a little sleepy at the moment, but I'm not tired.
The courtyard was quiet, except for a few birds talking a few words in the air, only the guards on duty in the dark.
Use a dry brush to comb the night black along the way and touch its head. I was also sleepy in the night, and as soon as I lowered my head and closed my eyes, I soon fell asleep.
I quietly withdrew from the stable.
There is a stone house not far away, although it is only one floor, the area is not small. As soon as I opened the door, a chill hit me, and my eyelashes trembled. In front of me is a staircase five or six people wide, leading to the basement level.
Walking down the stairs and opening the third door on the right, there are rows of shelves in front of you filled with short-spouted jugs of the same style, with the date of their entry into the ice cellar marked with paper.
The teapot is filled with wine, which is the famous rain ice tea on the rivers and lakes, which is carefully developed by the bustard mother flower Ruyu of the Spring and Autumn Institute of Lincheng in Liuzhou. Le Wen loves to drink, so he bought the production method, and agreed that the wine brewed would only be drunk in Yuefu, and it didn't matter whether to entertain the guests or not.
Rain Ice Tea, which is actually a rice brewed wine, has a low alcohol concentration, and is more like tea than three cups of drunk and worry-free spirits, and it is a sake tea. The water used to make sake is ice water. Place a huge block of ice from the Arctic Cold into the ice cellar, start high at one end, and zig around the ice to carve a finger-wide waterway and end low at the other.
The water taken from the jade spring in the depths of the east mountain of Lincheng in Liuzhou is sent to a high section through the container, and flows down very slowly, until the other end flows into the ice jar where the wine is made, and the temperature is just one degree before freezing. The ice water and the finest rice in Liuzhou make the final taste fresh and refreshing, with a light rice flavor and a delicate wine aroma.
Yu Ice Tea created the first method of brewing rice wine with ice water, and then imitated effectively, but the process was not as fine as Hua Ruyu, so Yu Ice Tea was respected as "the first frozen wine in the rivers and lakes".
Cheongju Mocheng and Liuzhou Lincheng are adjacent to each other, and it is very convenient to take the water from the east mountain of Lincheng. If Hua Ruyu improves the brewing process in the later stage, she can also send someone over at any time.
I took an empty porcelain pot with a wooden stopper from the shelf next to me and weighed it, it was too heavy.
I suddenly remembered the cowhide water bag that Yew used last night. Looking on the shelf, I actually found the cowhide wine bag that had been stolen in, and checked it carefully, but fortunately it was not damaged by ice. I picked a rain iced tea brewed last year, pulled out the wooden cork on the short spout of the teapot, filled the wine bag, plugged the seals on both sides, and smiled with satisfaction.
The temperature in the room was extremely low, and although I had cold internal force in my body, I couldn't help but shiver, and hurriedly put away the wine bag and retreated from the house.
Coming out of the cold room, the morning glow has not retreated, and the house is still quiet.
Continuing to walk deeper into the yard, two birds flew to the tree in front of them, crying "Ruyi, Ruyi".
"Uh-huh, good-" I replied in a mocking voice.
The birds seemed to be chirping more cheerfully.
At the end, there is a high wall, five meters above the ground, and vines linger on the wall. Behind the wall, a large tree with a canopy spread out, much higher than the wall, with pinnate compound leaves, is a centenarian acacia tree.
It is rumored that Shaolin has the light skill of flying eaves and walking on the wall, which can be arranged horizontally for eight steps. I looked up at the wall in front of me, which was several times higher than me, rubbed my hands, fastened the wine bag around my waist, took a few steps back to run, jumped, one, two, three, four, five...... Before I could take five steps, my body had already begun to fall, I frowned and exhaled, turned around in the air, and jumped down.
"Hehe-" A laugh came from the tree.
"Sister Zhen, the interest is very high. ”
With my left hand on my brow and my eyes narrowed slightly, I kicked a rock with my right foot, kicked it out twice, and flew towards the canopy of the tree.
There was no collision sound, and a young man with a ribbon tied on his forehead poked his head out, and his face was smiling: "Sister Zhen, it's so early today, are you going out of the house, or have you just come back?"
"What kind of supplements does Aunt Wang give you every day to raise you so smart?" I said, looking up at him.
"Every morning I brew a cup of walnut powder, and in the evening the supper is black sesame paste, which is hand-ground and mellow. Sister Zhen, I heard that when you were young, you also made up for it like this. Hu Yixiao smiled and replied.
Choked by Hu Yixiao's words, I rubbed my temples and said, "I'm still a teenager, okay?" I have to go and tell Aunt Wang that the fish market has started selling shrimp crawls again recently, and the shrimp crawls are nutritious, juicy, fresh and tender......
"Stop, I'll admit defeat! Sister Zhen, don't remind Aunt Wang, shrimp crawling is my number one enemy, it's too scary, look at that big mouth, that bunch of tentacles, I'm timid, you don't know. Hu Yixiao looked aggrieved and looked at me pitifully.
Suddenly feeling very proud, I raised my little hand and pointed at him, and said, "Yo, you see that you are so big and tall, and how majestic and chic you are in your guard suit, and you are as timid as a mouse, you say, is this appropriate? ”
Hu Yixiao lowered his head when he was talked, suddenly raised his head again, looked at the sky and said, "Sister Zhen, soon the girl sister in the courtyard, the little brother and the aunts from all walks of life will get up and get busy." ”
"You've hit the nail on the head!" I saw that it was almost dawn, and I was indeed going back to the house.
There was no run, and when he jumped, he was behind the high wall, and the blue clothes slowly floated down.
Hu Yixiao whistled in his mouth, and the whistle followed the rise and fall of my figure, and the tone was also the same, first high and then low.
The corners of my mouth hooked, I didn't look back, waved my hand, and walked to Huaxi Garden not far away.
I made a basin of well water in the garden, and the water temperature was a little cold. Untie the cowhide wine bag from your waist and dip it in well water.
Go back to your room, change your clothes, and lie down on the bed.
Close your eyes, use your skills, and use the first layer of snow wolf secrets. The cold internal force was awakened and the veins of my whole body were unblocked in a gentle way. Between breaths, the medicinal properties introduced by Aunt Peony in my body were finally cleared.
I let out a long breath, and soon, I too fell asleep and fell asleep.
It's that dream again, the garden is full of woody flowers and vines, and the flowering period is approaching, but I can't wait for it to open.
It has been said, "If a man loses himself, who can find her but herself?"
"Are you like her? ”
"You could not have looked like it, but I did. ”
"When you don't know what to say, it's often when it's time for you to go. Are you gone? No. So you still have to say it. ”
The cooing of carrier pigeons on the windowsill woke me up.
Get up and take the note from its feet, two more. One reads: At the junction of Jiangcheng and Yucheng, the bodies of three black-clothed people were found, and their identities were the killers of the underworld barracks. The other said: Cai Qi Kill entrusted Wo Mengxuan to issue a notice throughout the territory, claiming that the case of the Jade Cang Sect was not committed by Lan, and Cai Qi Kill had nothing to do with this matter.
Looking at the drip timer stone carving on the side, the hour has not yet passed, and the sleep time is much shorter than in consciousness.
Little Sesame was scrubbing and sweeping in the yard, busy and happy, humming a little song softly in her mouth, and her interest was not low.
I leaned in front of the window and said to her, "Little Sesame, you like to sing little songs so much, why don't you help you invite Lian's mother in the drunken red mansion and teach you, how about it?"
Xiao Sesame was happy and then worried: "Forget it, the drunken Red Mansion is a place for fireworks, and it will not be good to invite Lian's mother here." ”
I couldn't help it, Yile: "When did Little Sesame have such a big picture? You don't have to worry about this at all, didn't our family also buy Hua Ruyu's mother's Yu Ice Tea." ”
What little Sesame was thinking in her heart could be seen on her face. She first pondered and found that this was really the case, and then thought that this was a lot of expenses, and she was a little shy, although she was very happy, she had to suppress it a little, and only smiled.
Come on, since she really likes it, I won't tease her.
I beckoned to her: "Come and pick me the most chic, flowing, and beautiful dress." ”
Little Sesame walked into the room, leaned over and looked at my face, shook his head, pursed his lips, and said, "Huang Gongzi's medical skills are miraculous, so he soaked in a medicinal bath, and he was cured." ”
Ouch, look at her and wish I was in bed for a few more days to recuperate?
Little Sesame understood my eyes and waved his hand hurriedly: "I don't want to serve you more." ”
I really want to give her a blank look.
Ren Shuo, the chief manager, was sampling and inspecting in the warehouse, and I asked Xiao Sesame to wait at the door and walk in alone.
Ren Shuo saw me come in and nodded at me.
I didn't worry, so I sat on the side and waited for a while.
After Ren Shuo checked a few important matters, he came to my side.
"How's the portrait going, boss?" I asked.
"On the eighth day of the first month of last month, a local grain merchant in Mocheng came to the house to discuss the sale, and the person in the painting was a small servant who accompanied him. The grain merchant was not impressed by him, and another little guy in the same company saw that he was angry, so he asked a few more questions, and he said that he was temporarily pulled over to replace him. Such reasons are common, and doubts are dispelled. When I went to inquire again in the past two days, I learned that the person in the painting had already left the grain merchant and did not know where to go. Ren Shuo returned.
I already roughly understand that Guan Xingyi has frequent business contacts in Lefu, and his partners are carefully selected and have a high degree of credit, so he will not be suspected easily by taking the opportunity to get involved.
"This information is sufficient. By the way, the little song of Lianxin's mother in the drunken red mansion is very good, and our little sesame in Huaxiyuan also has some talent in this regard. ”
"Miss, rest assured, such things related to learning, the master is very encouraging and supportive, I will handle it as soon as possible. ”
"Okay, the chief manager is busy first. ”
Came out of the storeroom and came to the East Garden Yuzhu Pavilion. I didn't see the two brothers of the Tang family, only the little maid who accompanied them rested in the museum.
On the way back to Huaxi Garden, passing by the covered bridge by the lotus pond yesterday, Tang Lingshu and Tang Shengyuan were sitting and enjoying the flowers. Presumably, my "flying on the water" yesterday has also been understood by Tang Shengyuan at this moment.
"Sister Shui, are you feeling better? We just went to Huaxi Garden, but we didn't see you. ”
Tang Shengyuan was only four or five years old, and when he was looked at with concern by such a child, his heart suddenly seemed to melt.
"The one who treated me yesterday was the miracle doctor of Cheongju, and the medicine cured the disease. ”
I looked at him with a smile and continued, "After lunch, let's go outside." ”
Tang Shengyuan was still worried, and looked at Tang Lingshu, who was quiet on the side: "Doctor Huang said that inputting some hot internal force into Sister Shui, or playing a few sets of fist techniques to dredge and consolidate internal force, can help her recover quickly." Big brother, your martial arts are so high, can you do all of this?"
Tang Lingshu smiled at the corner of his mouth, looked into his eyes and said, "Second brother, don't worry, these big brothers are fine." ”
After speaking, Tang Lingshu looked at me again and said, "Coincidentally, there is indeed a fist technique in the martial arts of the Tang Mansion to dredge and consolidate internal force. I may not have reviewed for a long time, why don't we join us after dinner?"
Tang Shengyuan looked at me expectantly.
I suddenly remembered the smell of tea I smelled yesterday, but I stood by his side today, but I didn't smell it.
"Okay. I heard myself say.
