My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 49 Tea and Wine

However, his son and daughter-in-law are in harmony with each other, and Kangxi is also in a good mood.

These days, although there are some objections about Dong E's family, Kangxi knows that it is not easy to go into it, and there is never a shortage of jealousy in this palace.

Just seeing that she can be liked by the queen mother, and she can also let Yifei, the mother-in-law, take care of her, one knows that she is filial and clever, so she will be recognized by the double mother-in-law.

Looking at her dedication to her husband, Brother Ninth, and her kindness and kindness to her brother, Brother Ten, Kangxi can only praise her in his heart, but he really doesn't know what else to criticize.

Good woman has...

son?
Even if it's okay, let's save a few words...

Brother Jiu didn't know that he was inadvertently exposed, so he took the prescription of barley tea and handed it with both hands: "Khan Ama, this is a prescription that Dong Eshi found in an ancient book. The key to relieving the heat is that it is not like tea, drinking it in the afternoon so that you don’t feel sleepy at night... My son thinks it’s good, and Khan Ama will also see if it’s added to the imperial tea room..."

The Shang Study Room is right in front of the Qianqing Palace, and Kangxi knows all about the movement there, and he also heard that Jiufujin sent someone to deliver tea bags yesterday.

Is it this?

Although tea is no better than food, it is inseparable from daily life.

Liang Jiugong took the prescription and handed it to the emperor.

Kangxi looked at it and was quite surprised.

Originally thought that since it was a restoration of the ancient recipe, the procedure must be complicated and the throwing fee would be high.

I didn't expect it to be so simple to make, so it seems that it is more convenient than ordinary tea.

Kangxi couldn't help but be moved: "Are there any tea bags in Shang's study room? Ask someone to pick them up, I'll taste them first..."

Brother Nine hurriedly said: "My son has a bag with him..." As he spoke, he untied the purse and handed it over.

In the purse is a new handkerchief, which contains half a handful of barley tea.

Because it was newly made in the past two days, the aroma of barley tea is very obvious.

Kangxi looked at it, reached out and squeezed a few grains into his mouth to chew, he couldn't help being surprised: "Is this ordinary wheat?"

"Well, it's the wheat directly received from the imperial dining room...the specially sifted deflated wheat is to be sorted out to feed the horses, and there is no harm to serious grain..."

Brother Nine replied.

Kangxi nodded and looked at Liang Jiugong.

Liang Jiugong was the best at seeing colors, so he signaled the little eunuch to bring in boiling water.

Seeing Kangxi's gesture, he immediately made a bowl of tea himself.

With the blessing of boiling water, the fragrance of barley tea becomes more intense.

Kangxi looked at the color of the tea soup, it was only light yellow, not as bright as ordinary tea, and it should not be as durable as ordinary tea.

After a while, the tea was no longer so hot, so Kangxi picked it up and took a sip.

It smells fragrant, and it is also fragrant to drink, but it is not greasy, and the taste is sweet.

After drinking a cup, Liang Jiugong continued the hot water.

Kangxi continued to pay attention, and sure enough, the color of the tea soup was lighter.

This tea can only be brewed two or three times to the end.

Rao is so, there are merits.

That is, you don't need to throw it away, and you can chew and swallow it after soaking.

After Kangxi finished swallowing, he became concerned.

Brother Jiu watched, but the corners of his mouth twitched.

Why is this so?

But Khan Amma is like this, it is hard for him to say anything as a son.

But this chewing barley tea...

It's not good for Brother Jiu to keep Mi Cha.

That is more suitable for this way of eating.

"Khan Ama, Dong E's has actually restored two tea recipes. In addition to the barley tea and rice tea, the frying method is the same, that is, the material is replaced with rice, and that one can also relieve food and heat... It’s just that Dong E’s family also said that the effect of relieving greasiness is better, and it has the effect of lightening the body and removing fat. It is not suitable for my son, so I didn’t ask someone to prepare it..."

Brother Jiu thought about it and said.

"Rice tea?"

Kangxi nodded: "I have also seen this in the letters of the previous dynasty. It is rumored that Emperor Jiajing was popular in the capital, and it was introduced to the capital from Anlu...Dong E estimated that he also saw this record from these predecessors' notes. ...The effect of 'lightening the body and removing fat'? You can ask someone to try it. If it works, you can show filial piety to the Queen Mother..."

The Empress Dowager has been in the palace for many years, but she still maintains her childhood eating habits, and each meal is mainly meat and milk, so she is quite rich.

"It's hard to buy money when you get old and thin." When you get older, being rich will affect your health.

Kangxi lost his father and mother when he was young, and his grandmother has been there for many years. He is sincerely filial to his aunt, and naturally thinks that the old lady will live a long life.

Ninth elder brother showed a bit of flattery on his face: "Khan Ama, you see that your son is filial, shouldn't he be rewarded?"

Kangxi glanced at him: "Give you two rewards! I raised you so big, shouldn't you be filial to me?"

Brother Nine felt depressed, but he couldn't talk back directly, imitating the old ten's usual trickery: "Who made Khan Ama Ama? My son is in trouble, so who can I ask if I don't ask Khan Ama?"

Kangxi snorted softly: "Borrow money? Then don't open your mouth, I don't have money to lend you!"

Brother Nine: "..."

Does everyone know that he borrowed money?

His face was flushed, and he said hastily: "I don't want to borrow money, my son is in the palace, where is there any money to throw it away? I want to ask Khan Ama for two jars of royal wine... Minger's son will take Dong E's 'back home', this Isn’t imperial wine decent…”

Kangxi couldn't help feeling sour, and looked at Brother Nine with dissatisfaction: "No wonder I still wonder, why do I think of filial piety, so it's to please my father-in-law with my wine..."

Brother Jiu was not in a hurry to deny it, but just smiled, not knowing what to say.

It can't be said that he thought of the perfunctory and impoliteness of the "initial ceremony", and he felt guilty when he thought about going back to Dong E's house, and he wiped away the previous things because he thought about the gift being more thoughtful.

Seeing that he was obedient, Kangxi didn't bother to preach anymore, he just waved his hand: "Go to the wine cellar, pass on my word, I allow you to go in and choose four jars of wine..."

Ninth elder brother immediately agreed happily and withdrew.

"What's the use of raising a son? Give it to the father-in-law's family!"

Kangxi and Liang Jiugong complained, but there was a smile on his face: "After all, I am an adult, I have learned to take responsibility, and I have begun to learn to be considerate in dealing with things..."

Liang Jiugong followed suit and praised: "Jiuye's complexion is also good, and being with Shiye, he looks more like a brother..."

Kangxi nodded and listened, quite pleased.

Everyone has a weak heart.

They are both biological sons, and he is not a stepfather, so he naturally pays more attention to the ten princes who lost their mother.

It's just to avoid causing trouble and not revealing it in front of others.

Ninth elder brother can maintain his original aspirations, be sincerely close to tenth elder brother, a younger brother with a better background than himself, and not be jealous, and always take care of him. This is commendable.

*
Before Brother Jiu left school, Sitan Royal Wine arrived at the second school first.

They are all small two-jin jars, which look exquisite and precious.

The key is attached to the wine seal.

Shu Shu looked at it and couldn't take his eyes off it, because there are two altars with seals from the year of Shunzhi.

Shunzhi seven years...

After all, it was almost fifty years.

Even if Shu Shu is not good at wine, she can't help but be curious, wanting to see the imperial wine that has been hidden for half her life.

When Ama saw her, she didn't know how happy she would be.

There are two remaining jars, and the wine seal also says the third year of Kangxi, which is more than [-] years.

Shu Shu thought, with a smile on her face.

It seems that her hard work these past few days has not been in vain and has paid off.

It's just that in her performance, it's true and false, not very sincere.

Brother Nine's feedback was better than expected.

The relationship between Brother Nine and the emperor is not considered close, but Shu Shu was deeply touched by the fact that he was able to ask for this in front of the emperor in order to prepare for the "return ceremony".

Even so, she just sighed.

Perhaps, this is the so-called "marriage management"? !

It would have been fine if it hadn't been in the Qing Dynasty, but in today's society, Shu Shu would only be sincere to her sincerity and would not keep it; in that case, even if the final result was to break up, she would not keep her sorry.

But this is the Qing Dynasty, and she is used to being cautious. It is also because of the unequal status between her and Brother Jiu that she can't give her all her sincerity. The first thing she thinks about is to protect herself.

Within the frame of the rules, use the rules well.

This is her code of conduct.

But the sigh is the sigh, when Brother Jiu came back from school and entered the corridor, he saw his wife standing at the door of the second school with a smile on her face.

Seeing this, Brother Nine hurriedly took two steps: "Why are you waiting outside?"

The time to leave school is not fixed.

There are Shenchu ​​early and Youmo late.

Shu Shu smiled and said, "I just came out, I haven't waited long..."

At this moment, brother ten also came to the front.

Seeing brother and sister standing side by side, looking at me and looking at you, no one can get in, so he nodded his head as a courtesy, and went back to the three institutes knowingly.

After entering Elder Brother's office, Ninth Elder Brother grabbed Shu Shu: "Little liar, it hasn't been long since you said it, your hands are scalded..."

Shu Shu didn't deny it, but her eyes were glued to Brother Jiu, and her face was full of undisguised emotion.

Brother Jiu rubbed his wife's hand, feeling soft in his heart.

What's so exciting?
This is not what he should be a husband!

If she can devote herself wholeheartedly to him, he can also devote herself wholeheartedly to her!

This is the so-called "husband and wife"!

Grandma Liu was about to leave the wing room, she looked straight, then quickly backed away, muttering softly: "Bah! I don't know how to respect, who's master, Fujin, is such a young woman?"

In the main room, there were more Brother Nine around Yujiu.

"Let me bother you..."

Shu Shu shook Brother Ninth's hand: "Ama will definitely be very happy...I guess I won't be willing to drink...Don't say it is Ama, even if I see it, I want to hide it..."

Brother Nine was smug with pride on his face: "I personally went to the wine cellar to pick it out. This is not an ordinary wine..." After saying this, he rarely showed a little embarrassment: "The two altars in the seventh year of Shunzhi, It was prepared for Huang Mafa's wedding in the following year...the same is true for the two altars in the third year of Kangxi..."

Shu Shu couldn't help being stunned.

It turns out that these are not ordinary wines, and this year is not picked randomly!
Brother Jiu, are you trying to curry favor with her? !
Shu Shu's heart skipped a beat, looking at Brother Jiu softly, speechless.

At this moment, is this feeling true?
If only she was really only sixteen, she'd be fair.

Life can be repeated, but youth cannot be returned.

From the time she remembered the memories of her previous life, she was no longer a pure girl mentality, but mature and rational, who would weigh the pros and cons and care about gains and losses.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Brother Jiu looked over and saw the red circles around her eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little more at a loss: "What's the matter? Another slave is disrespectful?"
