Double-faced prince and concubine

The rain was slowly getting thicker and thicker.

Zhongli Ruixuan felt hot all over after doing the seemingly simple job for a while.The rain fell on his body, making him feel cool again.

After digging the soil and placing the sweet potato seedlings, Xia Yueer also picked up the hoe and buried one end of the sweet potato seedlings.

After planting the two fields, both of them were wet with water.

Back home, Xia Yue'er and Zhongli Ruixuan both changed into clean clothes and washed the wet clothes.

While doing the laundry, seeing Jing'er coming back from school soon, Xia Yueer ordered Zhongli Ruixuan to wash the rice and cook, and after a while she would cook the vegetables after washing the clothes.

Zhongli Ruixuan, who has never touched a cooking stove, feels that cooking is like a big project.

"Yue'er, where is the rice?"

After washing the pot, Zhongli Ruixuan didn't know where the rice was.

"It's in the wooden jar in the utility room." Xia Yue'er, who was washing clothes in the bathroom, replied loudly.

"How much rice do you want to cook?" Zhongli Ruixuan also raised the volume, the voice was so soft that Xia Yue'er couldn't hear clearly.

"It's enough to cook two and a half tubes."

Bamboo tubes for washing rice, one tube weighs one catty, two and a half tubes weigh two catties and a half rice, more than enough for four or five people, and can be used to feed chickens if they can’t finish.

After washing the rice, Zhongli Ruixuan asked again: "After washing the rice, how much water should I put?"

"You let go in, just cover the back of your hand a little."

According to Xia Yue'er's instructions, Zhongli Ruixuan finished the operation, started the fire, added firewood, and watched in the kitchen.

Xia Yue'er had just washed her clothes and was about to dry them when she heard Zhongli Ruixuan shouting again: "Yue'er, the lid of the pot is lifted, what should I do?"

The water in the pot boiled, the steam lifted the lid of the pot, and the rice soup overflowed.

"Pick up the lid first, and I'll pour out the rice soup."

Xia Yueer entered the kitchen, and saw Zhongli Ruixuan twisting the iron wire on the pot lid with his hands, and hurriedly shouted: "Be careful of burning your hands."

It was too late, Zhongli Ruixuan twisted the lid of the pot, only to find that the wire was hot, so he twisted the lid aside.

"Is it hot, let me see?" Xia Yue'er rushed over, grabbed his hand and looked at it.

"It's okay." Zhongli Ruixuan withdrew his hand.

It was a bit painful, but not to the point of blistering, just a little red.

"Go and soak your hands in the water."

Zhongli Ruixuan didn't think it would be a problem, and after hearing Xia Yue'er's words, he did as he did, scooped up half a ladle of water, put his burned finger in it, and it really didn't hurt anymore.

"Sanggong is amazing, he can cook rice so well for the first time, and the water is well placed!"

As Xia Yue'er said, she used two pieces of cloth hanging on the wall to wrap the ears on both sides of the rice pot, lifted the pot and poured the excess rice soup into a big wrist, then covered the pot and continued to cook.After removing some firewood, only two sticks were left to burn slowly in the stove.

"When the two firewoods are finished burning and the rice smells fragrant, the rice will be cooked. After drying the clothes, I will go to the vegetable garden to pick some green vegetables and come back."

In the kitchen, Zhongli Ruixuan continued to watch the fire, and when the two firewood in the stove were almost burned, he smelled the aroma of rice and extinguished the fire.

Waiting for a while, I don't know if the rice is cooked enough, remembering that before Xia Yueer brought the rice pot to eat, she used chopsticks to pick up a few grains of rice to see if the rice was cooked, Zhongli Ruixuan opened the lid of the pot, picked up a few grains of rice with chopsticks After eating a few grains of rice, it felt a little raw, so I put firewood into the stove and continued to burn.

Just looking at the fire, there was a sound of horseshoes outside the door, and Hei Hu came back with Jing Er and Yuan Hao.

"Mother—Jing'er, don't go to school—"

Heihu hugged Jing'er off the horse and shouted loudly.

Zhongli Ruixuan came out of the kitchen and asked Jing'er why she didn't want to go to school.

Jing'er replied angrily: "The characters written by Mr. Jing'er are different from those written by Jing'er. Mr. said that Jing'er's writing was wrong! But Jing'er did not write wrongly when mother taught Jing'er to write!"

After careful questioning, it turned out that the master taught them to write traditional characters, and most of what Jinger wrote were simplified characters taught by Xia Yueer.

With the same character, Jing Kangsheng saw the simplified characters written by Jing Er, and said that she had written it incorrectly. Jing Er was not convinced, and argued with Jing Kangsheng, saying that the characters her mother taught her could not be wrong.Jing Kangsheng thought that her mother was not very literate, and insisted on correcting her mistakes, but Jing Er refused to admit that she had written them wrong, saying that the words in the book were so written correctly, and Jing Kangsheng was so angry that he smoked.

"Where does the burnt smell come from?" Heihu sniffed and asked.

"Oops!"

It was because the rice was burnt, so Zhongli Ruixuan hurried into the kitchen and put out the fire.

"My lord, are you cooking?"

Heihu looked at Zhongli Ruixuan in disbelief, as if he saw some monster.

Prince Rui, he was actually cooking, did he read it right? !

Zhongli Ruixuan directly ignored Heihu's problem, walked out of the kitchen, went back to the room, took out a pen and ink, wrote a letter, asked Heihu to hand it over to the other guards, and sent it back to Fulin City, comparing the traditional and simplified fonts newly compiled by the Imperial Academy. bring this.

Earlier, Zhongli Ruixuan took out a thick book and asked Xia Yueer to write simplified characters, and he marked it, and that book was "Font Library".But that huge project was not finished, at that time it was just for fun, Xia Yueer only wrote a small part.Later, Zhongli Ruixuan felt that the simplified characters could be promoted, so he presented the simplified characters to the emperor. After reading it, the emperor also thought that the simplified characters were good, easy to write and easy to remember, so he ordered the Imperial Academy to compile an official comparison book, and tried to promote the simplified characters throughout the country.

For the implementation of simplified characters, some people cannot accept it, and some people welcome it, but it is not complete, so it cannot be implemented.

Thinking of this, Zhongli Ruixuan thought he had to trouble Xia Yue'er, and continued to mark the simplified characters.However, we have to wait until she goes back together.

Xia Yueer said to pick green vegetables, and brought back a yellow pumpkin and a handful of leeks.

She cut the pumpkin into pieces and stewed them in two large plates, then cut the sweet potatoes with leaves removed into sections, shredded the sour bamboo shoots from the jar, fried them into a dish, and added a leek scrambled eggs .

Three dishes were brought to the table, and Qingqiu had also returned, and dinner could be served immediately.

Before cooking, seeing leeks, Zhongli Ruixuan thought it was grass, and asked, "Can this grass be eaten as a vegetable?"

Jing'er said contemptuously: "Daddy, this is not grass, this is leek!"

Seeing the sweet potato stalks again, Zhongli Ruixuan asked again: "Aren't sweet potato seedlings for pigs to eat? Humans can eat them too?"

Xia Yueer despised this time: "Sweet potato seedlings are a very good dish, right? Of course people can eat them!"

When the rice was served and the pot was uncovered, Zhongli Ruixuan was despised by the group.

"How did this rice get so mushy?"

"Can I still eat?"

"Wow, it's soy sauce rice again!"

Zhongli Ruixuan was so embarrassed, he looked at Xia Yue'er innocently.

Xia Yue'er scraped off the yellow layer on the top with a spoon, and the bottom is still white. Although it is mixed with a little soy sauce color and has a burnt smell, it is still edible.

So he comforted Zhongli Ruixuan: "My husband, you cooked well. You can cook the rice for the first time, which is worthy of praise. When I cooked the rice for the first time, I forgot to add water, and the rice was boiled into charcoal." .Practice makes perfect, just cook it a few more times!"

Jing'er sighed: "Mother often cooks rice with soy sauce, but the rice cooked by Aunt Qingqiu is delicious!"
