Walking into the Red Mansion starts from the maid

I’ve bought ice, can I still make this milk tea?It just so happens that hot hot pot is paired with iced milk tea. It depends on whose spleen and stomach can tolerate this refreshing combination of ice and fire.

The naan pit in the yard was not evacuated, so Yunzhu started boiling milk and boiling the bottom of the pot on the two small stoves next to it.

"Who's the best at cooking? Cut off the fat from the meat and use it to cook the bottom of the pot." The milk was bubbling in the pot. Yunzhu held up the knife and couldn't move away, so he started to look for reinforcements for himself.

There was only one kitchen knife, which Zhao San kept because he was thinking of her. Ordinary people couldn't just buy as much salt and iron as they wanted, and the cook was naturally not very good at it.

"I'll do it, I'll do it!" Fang Guan raised her hand to signal. She had close contact with Aunt Liu in the kitchen. Under the influence, she knew a lot about things in the kitchen, and she held the knife with great posture.

Qingwen stepped forward and put the apron on her, and saw her flipping around a few times and dancing with the kitchen knife in a dazzling way. Everyone was envious and gathered around to praise her. Fangguan's face turned red with praise and he immediately started to slice the mutton. Come.

The red soup pot uses lard and mutton fat as the base, and the aniseed ingredients that have been fried in oil are thrown in, and water is added to boil together; the clear soup pot is made of persimmons with seeds removed, and some green onions are thrown in. At this moment, the yard is full The sour and spicy aroma is tangy.

It is said that butter is needed to have the authentic aroma, but farm cattle are precious animals. Yunzhu has long planned to never eat beef in his life. Now that he can have milk to drink, it is already very good.

Qingwen held a long-handled wooden chopstick in one hand and a lotus leaf to block water vapor in the other hand, and carefully fiddled with the pot for fear of burning the bottom.

She was confused in her heart, and she said bluntly, "The hot pots we eat at home are all made of clear soup. I have never seen anything so hot. Chicken, duck and clear soup with big bones, pork and chicken." It’s so delicious to eat in the winter!”

The milk tea was boiled and poured out to dry. Yunzhu laughed and said that if smoothie milk tea is not popular in winter, how can it be so refreshing in summer?

There was a fire in the yard, and the soup was boiling on the fire. Everyone was very excited but sweating profusely.

It would be nice to have air conditioning.

But people have to adapt to changes. Just think about things like air conditioning.

There is a well in the courtyard of Zhao San's family. The rim of the well is made of blue stones up to the waist. Yunzhu throws down the bucket tied with a hemp rope and can bring up a bucket of sweet spring water in a moment.

The cool well water splashed on the ground, and the hot water vapor dispersed, bringing a moment of coolness. Everyone hung handkerchiefs around their necks, their sleeves were almost rolled up on their shoulders, and stepped on the wet stone slabs with their bare feet, wiping sweat while Wipe the bamboo chair with cold water.

Qingwen refused to go barefoot, but her disgusting tone couldn't cover up the smile in her eyes.

Two officials were rushing to wash the vegetables. This scene was many times more harmonious than the one in Jia's house.

After everything was prepared, the hot tomato pot took the lead and a bowl of glutinous rice with minced meat was boiled. Bamboo chairs were far around the stove, high chairs were used as tables and low chairs were used as stools. A mouthful of sour and fragrant glutinous rice slipped in. A thin sweat broke out in my stomach immediately, and I wiped the sweat away while drinking.

Just appetizing is not enough. Children of this age are growing, so they not only need to eat enough, but also try their best to eat well.

The ocher-red pork loin was sliced ​​thinly, rolled out of the red soup, turned up and down for ten breaths, and seemed to wrinkle into a peony when picked up.

The unused chili was poured into a bowl of chili oil. Golden garlic foam and red oil were wrapped around the pork loin and peony, and then covered with a leek segment. When it was put into the mouth, it was oily and fragrant without any fishy smell.

Two pork kidneys, a few chopsticks for five people.

Then came the cirrus-like pork slices, mutton slices, chicken segments, shrimp sliders...

Emerald green vegetable leaves, golden mushrooms, white jade-like tofu...

Qingwen sometimes disliked leeks, and sometimes disliked garlic, but her chopsticks never stopped for a moment. The hot red oil was dipped in the mutton slices, and the chopsticks on the brown earthenware bowl were swept across the bowl. The momentum of the army, the tip of the nose is dripping with sweat.

"Second Grandma is very particular about food, but when I look at it, all the fat chickens, big ducks, pigs, lambs and calves are not as good as ours!" Qingwen wiped her face with her handkerchief and felt that her whole body was warm and she was wanton. It's so delicate and delicate that it makes your ears buzz.

Si Hao didn't remember what he just said about eating it in winter.

"Try this again." Yunzhu brought the golden and crispy fried egg from the stove. The browned skirt was put into the tomato pot to absorb the juice. The heavy chopsticks could not pick it up. He needed a bamboo spoon to scoop out the soup and eggs. In the bowl, red and yellow are intertwined, which is very eye-catching.

There are always rules and regulations when serving servants, and those indecent foods and smells rarely make it into the daily diet of the maids.

Yunzhu, who is used to eating light flavors, rinsed the pot for the first time. He felt that the blood and qi were surging all over his body. The spiciness turned into heat and surged through his blood. He looked like a hero with both Ren and Du's pulses. He wanted to jump on his feet and fly straight up. Yunxiao!
And this bite of fried eggs soaked in tomato juice soothes the restlessness in my heart, and I can even sit down and start shaving ice.

When the finely chopped smoothie melted into the brown milk, it was rich and mellow, without adding sugar, retaining the aroma of milk and tea. After drinking it coolly in a bowl, the five of them let out a long burp.

With her round belly, she couldn't even bend down. Ou Guan was half-lying on the bamboo chair, and couldn't help sighing in admiration, "I want double the shrimps next time."

The chess official touched his hands that were numb from peeling the shrimp, "Add another ten cents and ask the kid from the shrimp seller to peel them for us!"

"At least four pork loin." Qingwen added.

As they talked, everyone began to sigh that this small courtyard was really nice.

Throughout the ages, a house is not only a tile to cover oneself, but also a kind of spiritual belonging and sustenance. Yunzhu moved her heart and began to tease Qingwen, "I heard that guests come to your shop like a cloud. Your reputation is getting more and more famous, when will you buy a yard so that we can enjoy tea together and enjoy our lives?"

"Hey, you kid doesn't understand business matters. Where will you get the spare money to buy a house now? What's more, if I can't live in the sewing room, why should I buy such a small courtyard? Not even a small courtyard. Neither does the garden.”

"Look what you said, can you enter that garden now?" The sewing room is backed by the Grand View Garden. Before Tanchun didn't deal with the land contract, he could just stroll around in the huge garden. But now that's no longer possible. Guard your own land and don't give in an inch.

Especially after the theft, if outsiders want to go in and hang out, there are no doors or windows.

While the two were talking, they saw from the corner of their eyes that the three officials were already drowsy. Yunzhu looked at the mess on the ground and had a headache. She couldn't help but raise her voice and said loudly, "Don't sleep, don't sleep. We have to pack up and go back." Here, go back to sleep."

Everyone has work to do, and seeing that the sun has begun to tilt, how can there be any spare time for a nap?

Several people were happy for a long time, and they all felt very happy, but their whole bodies were inevitably tired.

After cleaning up the stove and the scene, Yunzhu locked the door again, and then walked leisurely to the agreed street intersection to wait for the bus.

Just as he was talking about buying candied haws, Qingwen said, "I won't go back home with you. The old lady asked me to make clothes for Baoyu Qiuhou. I have a lot of work."

Under the blue sky and white sun in the inner city, the two places were not far apart, just a stick of incense away. Yunzhu was not afraid of any accidents, so he casually asked if he wanted everyone to send him there.

"It's not like I can't find the road, so I want you to take me there? You guys are small, I'll watch you get in the car before leaving."

After a meal, the five of us became very close to each other. The three officials were chatting around Qingwen and asking her about the patterns on her clothes. They were having fun when they suddenly heard the noise.

"What?" Yunzhu saw several people paying attention, and it was obvious that he was not the only one who had auditory hallucinations. "When did the coachman say he would come?" Qingwen's face turned pale, and she stood under the pillars of the archway filled with colorful flags, feeling a little worried.

"This is the agreed time, it should be soon."

Just as he was talking, a group of armored soldiers passed through the street, escorting a group of ragged refugees, frightening everyone until their faces turned white.

Without it, if you see a person with a scrawled figure, you will look up to him and ask where he is from. If you cannot answer a few questions, you will be treated as a refugee and taken away on the spot.

This is not the attire of a city defense camp.

"No...are you okay?" Fangguan's voice was thin and frightened, and his cheeks were so tight that his teeth chattered.

Among them, Qingwen is the eldest child, and Yunzhu is the real but unreal eldest child. Although she has not experienced much, her thinking is always more mature, and she will not tremble with fear at the slightest disturbance.

However, seeing the three officials looking like this, I guessed that they happened to have seen these twists and turns when they were with the concubine first.

The concubine passed away. If the Jia family hadn't bought these little actors, they still don't know where they would have been sold.Now seeing Armor Kong Wu for the first time probably brings back the saddest memories in my heart.

Yunzhu grabbed the hands of the three officials and said comfortingly, "It's okay. The carriage will be here soon. You guys can stand behind the pillar. It's okay. Don't be afraid."

"Let me go over and take a look!" Yunzhu tied the inner corners of her skirt to her legs, vaguely looking like trousers. Her skirt no longer flew around when she walked, but she looked more neat and tidy than usual.

Fangguan saw her tying up her skirt and couldn't help but asked hurriedly, "Where are you going?"

"The carriage hasn't come yet, and there are soldiers patrolling. I'll go ahead to check the situation. If it doesn't work, we have to go back to the house." Seeing the three officials' faces turned pale, and their expressions of concern could not be faked, Yunzhu I couldn't help but reach out and touch the shortest Ou Guan's face.

When he turned around, there was a bit of determination in his eyes, "You are not allowed to wander on the streets after dark. Do we have to go back to sleep on the earthen kang without even a bedding? I am young, so I will go ahead. Sister Qingwen, you take them with you. Let's go back along the road and see if we can meet the coachman."

Qingwen hurriedly agreed. Just as she was thinking about walking ahead, she saw that Yunzhu had already left in a hurry.

She walked quickly, but did not choose her way in a hurry. She turned her back to the archway and headed towards the long street like an arrow.

"Get ready, wait for her letter, put your shoes and socks in order, let's hurry up." Yunzhu's calmness made several people relax, as if they just thought that the carriage broke down outside and they needed to walk back.

The market was crowded with people, both young and old, collecting stalls and running around. The street was not a straight and horizontal street, so the field of vision became shorter. She stood on the steps and looked up, and the excitement was uneasy.

But he still waved to the four people opposite.

Several people looked pale, but no longer as panicked as before. They rushed left and right among the crowd until they stood on the same step as Yunzhu. Then they breathed a sigh of relief. Qingwen stepped forward and said, "If it doesn't work, just go to me." We’ll just stay in the shop for one night, and I’ll go back tomorrow and explain everything clearly, and Qi Xie won’t blame you.”

Yunzhu shook his head, pointed his finger in the sky, and said slowly, "Looks like it's not that simple. I'm afraid it has something to do with..."

The Supreme Emperor and Jin Shang are engaged in a game. No matter how passionate the fight is, what will happen?The prince lost face and saw that there was no hope of succeeding to the throne. I don't know how many people were secretly testing that position.

Now, if they are really making trouble through the refugees, they are in danger outside.

Everyone was sweating. After hearing this, Qingwen suddenly felt blessed and said in her heart, "When I went out today, I heard that the ladies were going to the Queen's Qianqiu Banquet. Could it be...?"

Sister, you are so wild and free-thinking, you dare to think even more than I do!
Yunzhu tore off a strip of cloth from the edge of the skirt, tied it on the hands of Ou Guan and Qi Guan, then put the cloth in Fangguan's hand, and said hurriedly, "Don't let us get separated, no one knows whether it will happen or not." There will be people fishing in troubled waters, so be careful."

As he said that, he wiped a handful of ashes from the ground and put it on the faces of the three officials. At the end, he didn't forget to put a handful of ashes on himself.

Seeing this, Qingwen gritted her teeth and rubbed her pretty face against the wall.

Several people were dazzled by the crowds of people running around in the street. They didn't care to laugh at each other. After choosing a direction, they headed out.

However, due to his small stature, he has no advantage in the crowd.You can still know the direction when you stand at a high place, but if you stand in the crowd, it will be good if you don't make people dizzy, let alone run in the right direction.

Can't run at all.

"Let's go forward. There is an alley about two hundred steps away. Ying'er's house is at the end. Her backyard can lead directly to Ningrong Vice Street!" When we get there, the crowd will definitely not be so dense. Yunzhu is thinking He drew a map and explained in a low voice.

Several people encouraged each other and repeatedly reassured each other not to worry.

Yunzhu knew that if he said nothing at this time, it would only make the tense situation more frightening. He unconsciously said some nonsense words, which was both encouragement and diversion.

It's okay, it's okay, it's just two hundred steps.

"go!"

There were three melons held by a piece of cloth. They left the house together, so it was natural for them to go back all together. Yunzhu did not dare to relax and walked forward by feeling the roots of the wall, which was very laborious.

It is said that misfortunes never come singly. It is already irritating to encounter trouble when you go out. Now, someone came up to pull Fang Guan, shouting "wife, wife, come home with me", etc., which frightened the three officials and made them cry. , the feet moved faster.

Perhaps it was because of the girls that they were either thin or young, and the man with a wretched description was always trying to get closer to her, following them, always wanting to rub up against Fang Guan.

I had never seen such a battle in the Grand View Garden. Qingwen yelled and cursed a few times. Instead of shouting at the gangster, she instead attracted the gangster's attention to herself.

Qingwen was so angry that her fingertips were trembling slightly when she saw that she was in trouble. She was about to have a fit when she saw Yunzhu pull out a dagger from her arms.

"What the hell, if you dare to take a step forward, I will make you missing a part for the rest of your life!" As he said that, the dagger with a cold light flashed in the air, and rushed down in three directions.

"It's so wild, so powerful!"

Look at that weakling with unstable lower body. Although he is dressed like a human being, he is definitely not a martial artist.Yunzhu took a few breaths and handed the cloth to Qingwen's hand, while he used a more fancy way to hold the dagger.

"Who are you? Do you know who I am, your aunt? Do you dare to be mean to me?" He frowned and raised his chin, looking like a hooligan, which made the man stunned for a moment.

"Who are you..." Before he could finish his words, he immediately turned into screaming while clutching his stomach.

Hearing the screams behind them, everyone thought that the soldiers had captured someone. The scene became chaotic for a while. When they came to their senses, where was the little ruffian?
