Houmen's concubine

Hey, eat seafood!
The best way to eat seafood is to be as fresh and authentic as the ones on the table in front of you.

The two cousins ​​looked at the table full of seafood in front of them and moved their index fingers.

"Mr. Hua, Mrs. Hua, son, these seafood are all boiled in clear water with some salt, without any condiments. It's authentic, try it!" Qin Baozhen pointed to the seafood on the table in front of him, introduced it enthusiastically, and stretched out his hand Bring a pot of warm rice wine and fill the cups in front of everyone, "Eat seafood with some rice wine to get rid of the umami."

When eating seafood, the reason to drink rice wine is because rice wine is eaten with seafood, the taste is the most delicious, and the texture is also the best.

Huawenge never thought that it was unreasonable for others to call him "old" respectfully, and they always responded happily.

At this time, when Qin Baozhen called him the word "old", he felt a little offended...

He sneaked a glance at his old wife Jiaojiao beside him, and realized for the first time that he seemed to be a generation older than her.

I made up my mind that the next time someone calls him, they must remove the word "old".

In fact, as long as he goes to Beijing to report on his duties and is an official in the court, outsiders will definitely respect him as: Mr. Hua, Mr. Hua.

"Well, Master Qin is also right." Mr. Hua looked at the steaming seafood on the table and nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, he took off his outer robe and only wore the tunic sword robe inside, so that he could peel the crabs easily.

Eating crabs on the boat is not as sophisticated as eating crabs at ordinary banquets. The crabs are peeled by hand with the auxiliary tool "eight pieces of crabs".

Chen Jiaojiao prefers to eat seafood, and also likes to peel crabs by herself, but seeing her brocade clothes and pointed nails, she suddenly loses the interest in peeling crabs.

Why!I really miss the disposable apron gloves...
Looking up, I saw Wang Tong'er rolled up her sleeves, grabbed a bowl-sized crab with her small claws, and quickly peeled the crab's shell. I was really envious!

I had to hold the scallops with chopsticks and carefully put them on the plate.It's just that you can't speak without using your hands!

Just when she was lamenting that she was not a man, and eating a crab would not fulfill her wish, two bowls filled with crab paste and crab meat appeared in front of her, and when she looked up, one bowl was the original owner's husband, and said softly, full of affection : "Eat slowly, I will peel the crab for you for my husband."

"Well, thank you husband."

One bowl was of course crab meat peeled by her cousin Tong'er, and Jiaojiao's heart was so touched.

Or Cousin Tong'er!

"Thank you, Qin Yu."

Chen Jiaojiao was not too polite, and casually handed Wang Tonger the bowl of crab meat in front of her, served it with vinegar sauce, and ate it contentedly.

If Huawenge had the ability to read minds, no matter how powerful his mind was, he would be hit by [-] critical points...

Qin Baozhen was very interested in eating delicious seafood with his son, but he lost his appetite when he was fed dog food by a couple twice his age in front of him.

As night fell, the bright moon was in the sky, and the sea was sprinkled with silver brilliance.

The breeze blows gently, and the fishing fire is faint.

It was rainy in summer and rainy in autumn. Unexpectedly, the next morning, it was overcast, and the drizzle, a hazy and dark net, was pressed down low and shrouded the sky over the rough sea.

Wang Tonger stood on the deck and looked at the idyllic cottage at the foot of the Qingshan Mountain shrouded in the hazy rain...
The autumn wind blew up, and the rain fell. The autumn rain was as fine as a cow's hair. It floated on the hem of the clothes and soaked the dress. She still looked into the distance with great interest. Everything is like a fairyland.

"Master, go back to the cabin." Xiuyun held a red oiled paper umbrella to cover her head, and said with concern: "As the saying goes, if you wet your clothes in the drizzle, master, don't catch cold."

It doesn't matter if the young master is a real man, but the young master is a daughter just like himself, so he can't be careless, he can't stand the cold or rain.

"Well, okay." Wang Tong'er was enjoying the drizzle in the picturesque scene, when Xiuyun said so concernedly, she nodded.

Even if it is drizzling, the deck of the boat has never been dry and is wet. Fortunately, the deck is made of honey-colored teak wood, which will not seep water even if it is soaked.

Nanny Xu was also holding an oil-paper umbrella, ready to pick Wang Tong back to the cabin. Seeing that Wang Tong'er had turned around with Xiuyun, she went to the kitchen to boil a bowl of brown sugar water. Miss Tong'er's monthly letter was coming soon. It's raining, so don't have a stomachache.

Wang Tong'er was not very boring these two days, because her cheap father would go to talk to her from time to time, and Hua Wenge also brought a few books that were useful for scientific examinations to read to her from time to time.

However, Wang Tong'er looked at the Jiaojiao cousin who was following behind Mr. Hua, with the corners of her mouth raised, her face full of grievances, she was both distressed and happy.

Chen Jiaojiao was quite interested when it rained yesterday, but she lost interest after a long time.In addition, there is an old man named Huawenge who is always around her, so it is not convenient for her to talk to Wang Tonger.

After all, the age of this body is here. After sitting on the boat for so long, I just feel dizzy and will not be able to hold it any longer. Now I lean on the railing, depressed.

Seeing the rain gradually increasing, looking at the foggy weather and continuous rain, I feel depressed.

Chen Jiaojiao sighed boredly, "Hey!"

He hoped to arrive at Laoba Town as soon as possible, and when he landed, he and Sister Tong'er would share a carriage.

Imagination is beautiful, Huawen Pavilion is always with her on the boat.How could it be possible for her to share a carriage with Wang Tong'er when they got to the shore and took the carriage?
When Chen Jiaojiao saw Huawen Pavilion placed on the desk, there was a stack of empty envelopes for correspondence, she couldn't help but had an idea, and stretched out her hand to pull them out.

She wanted to get a deck of cards and play cards when she was bored.

Ordinary paper is rice paper, which is not only soft but also thin, how can it be used to make playing cards?
Seeing that his wife took off the envelope of the husband's empty letter and cut it into small rectangular pieces of paper with scissors, Mammy Zhu was worried that the husband would blame her if he found out.

When Huawenge came in from the outside, he saw his old wife sitting in front of the desk, seriously drawing something with a small brush?
Take a closer look, eh?What the lady drew turned out to be a little ghost with a blue face and fangs.

There are many small cards with various symbols painted on them, and the four corners of the cards are actually written with numbers used by Westerners.

Due to Qinzhou's trade with the West, many people know the numbers and symbols of Westerners, so it is not surprising that Chen Jiaojiao can use Arabic numerals.

When Grandma Zhu saw Mr. Hua coming in, she hurriedly turned to bless her, and looked at her wife worriedly, "This old servant has seen the master."

"Well, there's nothing wrong here, you can go down." Huawen Pavilion waved at her.
