Houmen maidservant, she doesn't want to be in power

Chapter 9
The Qingfengyuan where the second master lives.

The wind in the morning was still a little cool, and at noon, the strong sun hung in the sky like a ball of fire.The puddles that got up early had already dried up, and the wind in the air carried a dry and hot breath.

Shi Jin moved Er Ye's winter quilt out to dry, and happened to see Bi'er hiding from the cold in the corridor.The girl stretched out her hand and planted an egg on her head.

Shi Jin thought it was interesting, so he asked her what she was doing.

Bi'er was grinning, and helped Shi Jin move the quilt together, "I'm in charge of the kitchen, Madam Zhao bought an egg, and wanted to see if it could be baked under the sun."

"That's a good idea. Why don't we put some sweet potatoes under the sun? Then we can eat roasted sweet potatoes." Shi Jin teased her.

Unexpectedly, Bi'er's eyes lit up for a moment, and she praised Shi Jin's idea.

Zhihua couldn't stand it any longer, and poked Bi'er's face with baby fat, "She lied to you, that's all, you believe it?"

Bi'er was not convinced, her face was puffed up, "No way, sister Shi Jin is very kind, so she wouldn't lie to Bi'er!"

Shi Jin suddenly felt guilty.Together with Bi'er, she shook off the blue quilt and hung the quilt on the rockery covered with a layer of rain felt to dry.

There are not many other things in Erye's Qingfengyuan, only rockery can be found everywhere.In a short time, bedding was hung on the high or low rockery rocks in the whole yard. From a distance, it looked like pieces of colored plasters pasted in the yard.

Playing chess carefully, he also aired and beat the quilts that the second master is currently using, and when he went to bed at night, he felt soft and comfortable.

Shi Jin felt that it was almost done, so he went to mess with her lotus leaf tea.

She first washed the tender lotus leaves with clean water, then laid them flat, and dried them in a dustpan, waiting to drain.

During the period, I picked up a few more neat lotus leaves and sent them to the kitchen, and asked Aunt Zhao to make lotus leaf steamed meat and a pot of lotus leaf porridge for the second master later.

Aunt Zhao also thought it was a good idea, so she hurriedly prepared pork belly and seasonings, and marinated them together.

Porridge is also easy to make, just add some more rice, make a big pot, and let everyone in the yard try it.As for Erye's lotus leaf porridge, he boiled it carefully in a small casserole, added some ingredients, and simmered slowly.

In the evening, the aroma of lotus leaf steamed meat and lotus leaf porridge wafted throughout Qingfengyuan.

Shi Mo, who came back with Second Master Qi, couldn't help sniffling, "It smells so good!"

Second Master Qi glared at him, stepped into the yard, and saw square quilts placed on layers of rockery.

That's okay, there are some isolated rocks with only a bedding hanging on the top of the peak, which looks like the rockery has been clothed, if it comes out at night, I'm afraid it will scare half to death.

Second Master Qi looked forward, and saw that Shi Jin was raising his head to reach a mattress hanging on the rockery.The mattress was probably caught by something, but Shi Jin jumped a few times, but couldn't pull it off.

Just when she was a little discouraged, a hand came out from behind, and gently and skillfully picked the quilt off.

Shi Jin was startled, turned around abruptly, and the tip of his nose brushed against Second Master Qi's chest.

She was frightened to death, and hurriedly opened the distance between the two of them, and took the quilt from the second master, "Second master came back so early today? This servant will take them into the room immediately."

There were still beads of sweat on her face, and her eyes were stained with a little smile when she spoke. After all, she was in a good mood.

Second Master Qi was rarely angry, nodded slightly, and returned to the main room.

Shi Mo hurriedly helped Shi Jin put away the bedding.

The second master sat in a partition on the west side of the main room.Under him was an ebony lacquered rocking chair, and while he was sitting quietly reading a book, he ordered Shiqi to serve tea.

Siqi hasn't gone home yet, so Tete boiled the collected dew, and followed the instructions of Mengchen Linlin, Oolong Entering the Palace, Hanging Pot High Chong, Spring Breeze Blowing Face, Rewashing Beauty, and Yuye Returning to the Pot , Touring the mountains and rivers, Guan Gong patrolling the city, and Han Xin ordering troops step by step to create a fragrance of jasper.When the tea is on the table, there will be leaves as tender as jasper gently swaying in the matching knuckle-glazed bamboo branch cup, and the tea fragrance will overflow for a while, and the room will be filled.

When Shi Jin saw Si Qi ordering tea, he couldn't help taking a few lazy glances, only to feel dazzled by the beauty in front of him, holding a teapot in his hand, with a slender and charming figure.

The second master reached out to fetch the teacup, pecked lightly, his eyelashes slightly closed, and held the tea with both hands, showing no signs of happiness or anger.

Seeing Siqi standing upright on the side, Shi Jin sighed slightly in his heart, a banished immortal like Er Ye who is so beautiful and unconcerned is really a waste of money.

She was folding a brocade quilt on the arhat couch in the back, when the second master beckoned to her directly.

Shi Jin was taken aback, and couldn't help but put down Jin and was moved to Qi Mojing's side, "Second Master, do you have something to order?"

Qi Mojing didn't say anything, but just pushed the tea in his hand towards Shi Jin.

Siqi, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Who dares to use Erye's cup?

Shi Jin guessed what Qi Mojing meant, but couldn't see his expression, so he bravely handed it to his lips and took a sip.

Not to mention, the aftertaste is long, and it is indeed more than a star and a half stronger than myself.

If she raised her head at this time, she could see a little smile in the depths of Qi Mojing's eyes.

He turned to Siqi calmly, "Your tea ordering skills, pass it on to Shi Jin."

Siqi hurriedly responded.

A pot of tea was about half used up, and Qi Mojing just got up, "Let's set the meal."

Not long after, the little maid came in with a four-layer food box with black primer and gold painting, and brought to the table the lotus leaf steamed meat and lotus leaf porridge that Aunt Zhao had specially prepared.

Accompanied by these two meals, there is also a drawer of crystal steamed buns, stir-fried shredded bamboo shoots, stir-fried shrimps in soy sauce, stir-fried fresh river fish, and a bowl of Japonica rice.

Taking a peek at the absence of fish on the table, Shi Jin couldn't help exhaling softly.

Today, before Siqi returned home, the second master came back, so all the cooking and cooking was left to Siqi.

After Shi Jin spread the last soft quilt on the bed, she and Zhi Hua winked and retreated.

The second time he entered the small courtyard, on the other side of the sitting room, Shi Mo was drinking lotus leaf porridge with a sea bowl.

Shi Jin came over with his own bowl, and was about to ask Aunt Zhao to serve a bowl of porridge, when Aunt Zhao spread her hands and said, "In the end, all the porridge is in Shimo's bowl."

Zhihua is pungent, and goes directly to Shi Mo's side and twists the soft flesh around his waist. While drinking porridge, Shi Mo walks in circles in the courtyard in an undisturbed manner, which makes all the little maids laugh.

Shi Jin also laughed, and asked Aunt Zhao to help her serve hot and sour potato shreds, with a steamed bun to eat.

Aunt Zhao was so sorry that she secretly stuffed her with a salty duck egg that was dripping with oil.

Shi Jin thanked Aunt Zhao, and asked Zhihua to have dinner together.Zhi Hua had no choice but to stop panting, pointing at Shi Mo with her hips on her hips and said, "Next time you dare to grab this girl's porridge, watch your legs!"

Shi Mo hurriedly begged for mercy, "Sister Zhihua, please forgive me this time, I haven't eaten for a day. Next time I will bring you Rongjinpu's dim sum."

Rongjinpu's dim sum is delicious, and Zhihua remembers the taste after eating it only once.Now hearing Shi Mo's words, Zhi Hua stopped worrying about it, took dinner and went back to the ear room to eat with Shi Jin.

This time they went to the side room where Zhihua lived.Although the inside is also empty, Zhihua pasted a lot of paper-cuts on the wall, which is quite interesting to look at.

The two of them moved a small table, put two dwarves together, put two dishes and two steamed buns on the table, shared the salted duck eggs together, and enjoyed dinner happily.

While eating, Siqi walked in with a food box.Seeing the two girls grabbing the salted duck eggs head to head, she couldn't help covering her mouth and smiling, "Let me add something for you."

Hearing what Siqi said, Zhihua couldn't help but his eyes lit up, "Second Master, is there any leftover food?"

Si Qi directly opened the food box, took the remaining two crystal clear steamed buns into their bowls, and divided out the remaining steamed pork and dried bamboo shoots.

For a moment, the fragrance filled the ear room, and Shi Jin's saliva was about to flow down.

"You guys use it, I'll take the rest home and let the family have a taste of Aunt Zhao's handicraft." Siqi covered the food box and said with a smile.

After all, these big maids are somewhat respectable, and they have a chance to share some of the food that the master can't finish.That is to say, the second master advocates frugality and doesn't often eat at home, so a few people get less things.

The two hurriedly thanked him, watched Siqi go out, and then returned to the table for dinner.

The crystal steamed stuffed bun was really delicious, Shi Jin finished it in one bite, and set his sights on Zhihua's steamed stuffed bun.

Zhihua covers her job, telling Shi Jin not to ask Xiao to think about it.

After the two quarreled and ate dinner, Shi Jin was in charge of cleaning up the dishes, while Zhi Hua went to wait in the second master's room.

After Shi Jin finished collecting the bowls and chopsticks, he just took the lotus leaves back to the house after a day in the sun, when he saw Zhi Hua running back with a grievance on his face.
