green bamboo dream

When Cheng Xunxun came back in the evening, it was almost past You Hour. 【26nbsp;】

"Second Lord is back." Yu Zhu greeted her with a smile, and then sent the maid down to get a hot towel, "Are you hungry, do you have a good lunch? Let's change clothes and set the meal."

Cheng Xunxun answered absently, and before the maidservant brought hot water, he turned around and entered the clean room.

After he washed and changed his clothes, a table full of steaming dishes had already been prepared.

Yu Zhu carefully observed his words, and stretched out his hand to take his sleeve carefully, "What happened... Could it be that the emperor has made things difficult for you?"

"...The fifth prince is going to guard the mausoleum, and the emperor ordered me to escort him." Cheng Xunxun saw that the maids and mothers in the room had retreated, so he simply took Yu Zhu's hand and sat down together, and said calmly.

"How could it be?" Yu Zhu was surprised, and the hand holding Cheng Xunxun's food stopped in the air, "Didn't it be said that the fifth prince deliberately murdered the late emperor, so he can go to guard the mausoleum." If it is true, the old man The emperor must not get angry from the mausoleum, and then climb out to strangle his neck...

Cheng Xunxun took a sip of hot tea and shook his head slightly, "It's the emperor's kindness to wear a crime... But compared to the days of being imprisoned in the palace, I'm afraid it's much sadder."

Yu Zhu silently spread vegetables for him, thinking in his heart that - not only is life difficult, but it is also much more convenient for the emperor to "do things".

No matter what, the matter was settled like this, and it would be useless to say anything else, and the two of them had a tacit understanding not to talk any further.

Cheng Xunxun ate a piece of five-spice shredded chicken with chopsticks, and he felt that it was full of flavor, smooth and tender without losing the chewy texture. After seeing that other dishes were also exquisite and attractive, he couldn't help but praised: "Which mother's craft is this, it's really good."

Yu Zhu raised her chest proudly: "Mama Ruan cooks the food herself, can Second Master give me some money?"

This is a trick to fight for the benefits of the dowry mother. Cheng Xunxun laughed, and looked somewhere, "Yes, of course I will. It can be seen that I have raised you well." At the end, he added, "I am very satisfied."

With a red face, Yu Zhu turned her head away, cursing secretly that this person is getting more and more toothless.

Someone succeeded in molesting, although the price was that the person serving the dishes disappeared, so he didn't care. He cleaned up most of the dishes on the table by himself, and planed three more bowls of rice before putting down his chopsticks.

After the maid finished tidying up, Yuzhu looked at the clepsydra, hesitating whether to talk about Cheng Xungong again, but he didn't know if he had heard about it at Xie's place just now, I don't know, it's okay, if I knew, I would say it again Could it be that there is some meaning of cursing people... After all, it is not a good thing.

Cheng Xunxun's fingers gently slid across the royal blue silk-embroidered cushion under his body, sighing at the smooth and soft touch, his heart moved, his handsome eyes narrowed slightly - I don't know when, this yard and this house began It appeared more and more frequently in his mind, sometimes when he was riding a horse, or competing in the school field... every detail of the Qingyuan Courtyard would unconsciously appear in his mind, and before he noticed it, the smile suddenly appeared. Stretching out, it often makes those guys in the camp who are afraid of chaos in the world scream again and again...

Looking at the calm and beautiful face under the light, and occasionally glancing at his little wife with clear eyes like autumn water, Cheng Xunxun suddenly felt his heart swell up, as if something was about to break out of the shell, but it was warm. The warmth is full of joy... What the hell is it?He couldn't figure out whether it was the more and more warm and comfortable furnishings in the room, the constant fresh and fruity aroma all year round, the warm food with complete color and fragrance, or the occasional one or two bright little places that make people secretly admire the ingenuity. thing?

His slender and strong fingers rested on his chin with a clear line, and the corners of his mouth could not help but rise slightly... Or, this cute little thing at home...

Why is this guy rubbing his chin and smiling so profusely?Yu Zhu felt baffled, could it be that Mama Xie beat Mama Ruan tonight, and then put Michelle in the dish by mistake?

"Say, that." Swallowing, Yu Zhu decided to take a brave step, "Today my natal sister-in-law came and mentioned something to me, I don't know if it counts."

"I know about that." Cheng Xunxun's brows and eyes were gentle, his former sharp eyes were as soft as spring water, "You've done a good job, don't worry." He glanced at Yu Zhu approvingly, why didn't he know the crookedness inside? Whispering, when he was a child, it wasn't that there were no slaves who whispered in his ears such bastard words as the eldest son and the second son, but the eldest brother is the eldest brother, if you want to choose the same title as the Duke of the country, there is no doubt that he He would choose the latter... His wife's ability to be one with him regardless of the honor of the dukedom makes him very happy.

Yu Zhu felt a little weird at the moment, and tried to find a topic: "Then, will the eldest brother be in danger? If not, let the emperor increase his troops." In her impression, the Mongols robbing grain is a very brutal and violent thing, Lin Yuanzhi I have vaguely mentioned that every year after the autumn harvest, the border is very uneven, and there are often bloody battles and the like.

Cheng Xunxun laughed loudly when he heard this, and couldn't help pinching Yuzhu's ears: "You're really a child, but he's just a Mongol who robbed food, so the emperor needs to increase his troops."

Being pinched and screaming, Yu Zhu struggled desperately to escape, woo hoo, she was wrong... really shouldn't have challenged his bit of soldierly arrogance.

But now she is finally relaxed, whether Cheng Xungong lives or dies has nothing to do with her, let them worry about the next thing.

But Yu Zhu never dreamed that this reminder would indirectly bring him so much trouble...

……

Seeing that the Empress Dowager's birthday is approaching, there is some commotion everywhere in the capital, people who are eligible to enter the palace to pay homage to the birthday are busy with the birthday ceremony - this is the first major event after the emperor's ascension to the throne, and it must not be sloppy.

Gifts should not be too expensive - the national treasury is not rich, and you still come to show off, isn't it obvious that you are displeased by the emperor, be careful that the next one will be copied to your house.

There has to be a moral, at least you have to say something to show that you have prepared seriously, and you have never made up random numbers.What I am most afraid of is a car crash. If I happen to send the same thing, I will be ashamed.

Birthdays are hard to prepare, everyone is busy, and Cheng Guogong's mansion is no exception. The old man was a little dissatisfied with the jade and antiques prepared by Mr. Zhao, but when he saw the kang screen embroidered by Yuzhu, he suddenly smiled A flower bloomed, and I put my heart in my stomach. I pulled out the horse and went out to have a drink with Uncle Zhongqin.

After embroidering such a large piece of embroidery, Yuzhu was ready to relax. Excitedly, she was going to take her maid to pick some lotus leaves in the garden to make lotus leaf soup. It was really a wonderful thing to reward herself with some delicious food when she was tired.

In order to increase the relationship between husband and wife, Yu Zhu also deliberately pulled Cheng Xunxun who was idle at home to him.

Huobu followed behind, looking at the elated little wife who could only grin from the corners of her mouth to her ears, and the maids who were as excited as the surrounding ones, Cheng Xunxun's mood also soared a lot, and the corners of his eyes and brows stretched.

It just rained yesterday, although it was not heavy, but there were also many withered old lotuses that were beaten to the left and right, and the whole area was withered, decayed, dilapidated and miserable.Fortunately, the lotus pond is quite big, and it looks like several generations live under the same roof. There are many green or dark green lotus leaves growing lushly, and occasionally you can see some bright yellow new leaves and pink lotus flowers sandwiched therein. There are a few red spots in the green bushes, which are really tender stamens condensed, full of fragrance.

At first glance, the cruelty of the alternation of the old and the new is undoubtedly revealed

Qiuchan, who went to borrow a boat, couldn't help but think of the sour poems that Mantao often read, such as "Counting the remnants of the lotus and keeping the autumn cold".

The atmosphere was getting a little gloomy, when I heard Yu Zhu hurriedly shouting: "Don't, be careful, there are not many usable leaves left, so don't pick them up... don't touch the water. "

It turned out that the boat lady had already launched into the water with the penny on her back. Listening to the command of Yuzhu on the bank, she rowed the boat to the east and then to the west. Freshly grown lotus leaves.

"Oh, I've been so busy these past few days that I've been so dizzy, I actually missed the day." Yuzhu sighed deeply, turned around in a hurry, and stretched her neck to try to look at the basket in Yinlian's hand. I could see it clearly, but it was obviously not full, so I was distressed: "Look at the lotus leaves that have turned yellow, and I don't know if it is enough. Alas, it is probably yellow... Old leaves can't wring out juice. .”

The long-awaited delicious meal is about to be ruined. For a foodie, the taste is indeed a bit cruel.

No matter how many feelings she had, Cheng Xunxun coughed twice to hide his smile, and said solemnly: "It's okay, if it's not enough, you can send someone to the next door to ask for some."

Lie ghost, the man who lives next to the Duke’s mansion is either the county king or the Duke. To avoid suspicion, the friendship is not very good. You run to other people’s houses to pick lotus leaves, and you are not afraid of being beaten out.

It was about borrowing a boat, launching into the water was so loud that even the old lady was alarmed, and she specially sent Mama Yang to watch it.

Cheng Xunxun was very kind, before Yuzhu could speak, he stood in front of him and said, "I read a travel book last night, and it mentioned this lotus leaf soup. The weather is fine today, so I'll ask Mrs. Lin to make it."

Yu Zhu muttered to the side, even if you don't say it, I plan to rely on you...

Yang's mother pursed her lips in joy, and went back to report to Mrs. Xie, "...the maintenance is very good, it seems that she has taken care of it."

Mrs. Xie also became happy, showing a rare smile, "That's good, that's good, I'm afraid that the old 2's bad temper, like a hard stone, can't be warmed up, just know that it hurts people."

"I didn't learn from you. My youngest son has a mother-like temperament." Mama Yang smiled. She is the most powerful person around Xie Shi, and she is more important than those big maids, so she speaks more casually.

"...Really." Xie's smile faded a bit: "Like what's good about me, I won't be liked by my sisters in the boudoir, and I won't be liked by my husband and son-in-law after I get married... It's better to be like an old second wife, see. It's so sweet to the heart, but the wife of the in-laws knows how to teach, if Yun girl was born in her belly, I'm afraid she wouldn't be like this..."

Seeing that the eldest aunt was mentioned, Mama Yang knew that Mrs. Xie was sad, so she hurriedly remedied: "If the second wife gave birth to the young master, she must have a very good temper. I am afraid that the old lady who will be recruited will hold her in her arms every day and won't let it go. ..."

Xie exhaled, and his gloomy eyebrows regained his indifference: "...Yes, I am looking forward to it." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe and reward. Your support is My biggest motivation.)
