Empress Dowager: Husband, please lie down

Chapter 142

The few people quarreled and laughed and played all the way, and soon they arrived at the outskirts of the east of the city.

From a distance, Ruan Eryue saw an independent courtyard located in the field.It's like a modern farmyard, with ponds in front of and behind the house, and you don't need to think about it to know that they are raising fish.

The lotus blossoms were in full bloom these days, and several middle-aged men were fiddling with in the mud pond next to the pond.There are still ducks and geese strolling in the large open space in front, pecking at the green grass by the pond, but because the pond is surrounded by wooden fences and cannot go down to catch fish, they squawk unhappy.

After getting off the carriage, Xia Houqing was like a runaway wild horse, waving her arms excitedly and asked the busy middle-aged uncles in the mud pond, "Uncle, what are you doing? Are you digging lotus roots? Can I come down too?" Do you want to try?"

The three people walking behind suddenly had black lines all over their heads. Ruan Eryue saw the uncle in the mud pond holding up his muddy hands, looking at Xia Houqing with some embarrassment, laughed cheerfully a few times, not knowing how to answer, and hurriedly Grabbing Xia Houqing, "Qing'er, digging lotus roots will be in the twelfth lunar month of winter. The lotus flowers are still blooming at this moment, how can there be lotus roots?"

"That's right, what Xiaoyue'er said is right, if Princess Eleven doesn't understand, she should learn more!"

Seeing that there was an opportunity to answer the conversation, Su Yu rushed up without fear of death, and said to Xia Houqing winkingly.

"you……"

Xia Houqing blushed, grabbed Ruan Eryue's arm and puffed her cheeks angrily, not wanting to talk to Su Yu.But there was some embarrassment in my heart, and I was only sullen in my life.

Seeing that Xia Houqing was not happy, Ruan Eryue took Xia Houyin by the hand, glared at Su Yu, then turned her head to comfort Xia Houqing, "Okay, you grew up in the palace since you were a child, so of course you don't like these things. It's clear. Su Yu is a bitch, so ignore him."

Xiahou Yin suddenly laughed softly, Su Yu felt that his face was a little bit uneasy, and walked in the front angrily, muttering to himself, no one could clearly hear what he was talking about.

Seeing that the opportunity came, Xia Houqing let go of Ruan Eryue's arm, took a step forward, and kicked Su Yu's ass fiercely, "Su Yu, how dare you laugh at this princess, how dare you laugh at me?" go to hell!"

Su Yu accidentally won the bid, and was kicked by Xia Houqing so that he slanted and fell into the mud pond.

However, in front of Ruan Eryue, in front of Xiahou Yin, how could he, the fourth son of Duke Wen's mansion, make such a big fuss?

Su Yu turned around gracefully, and flew back to the shore with a big footprint on her buttocks.Just as he wanted to proudly show off how powerful his "floating on mud" was, he accidentally pushed him in again with the palm of Xia Houqing who was ready again.

This time, he actually fell into the mud.

"Hahahahaha, Su Yu, you are just a fool now! I see what you have to be proud of, how dare you laugh at me!"

Seeing Su Yu covered in mud with an aggrieved face, supported by the old man at the side, he stood up from the mud pond with difficulty, Xia Houqing slapped his legs and laughed wantonly, "Look at your mouthful of mud, is it delicious? What? Taste?!"

"Xia Houqing!"

Su Yu was originally a little devil who was fearless, so how could he care about Xia Houqing's princess status at this time?Being kicked down the mud pond in full view of everyone, it was still in front of Xiahou Yin and Ruan Eryue!

He just felt that he had lost face to his grandma's house!
At that moment, he picked up a handful of mud and threw it at Xia Houqing, who was dancing on the bank... Xia Houqing naturally refused to admit defeat. The two of them chased and dodged, and they played happily in the mud pond.

Remembering that I was not at ease, I sent Ji An to make arrangements earlier, and found the best cook in the capital to replace the grilled fish chef here.Taking advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was on Su Yu, Xiahou Yin hurriedly led Ruan Eryue into the yard, "Ruan Ruan, let's go in."

Probably feeling Xiahou Yin's mind, Ji Mo asked the cook to prepare it early.At this time, a fire was set up in the yard, and several plump fish were already roasting.

Call it a yard, but it’s just a dam surrounded by wooden piles of different heights.At this time, many small wild flowers entangled on the wooden post were vying to bloom, covering up the fishy smell coming from the fish pond not far from Le.

The dam is surrounded by lush green grass, and a few pagoda trees grow very lushly, with little petals falling down, and the whole yard is peaceful and beautiful.

Before he got close, he smelled the aroma of grilled fish, and Ruan Eryue immediately lost his composure.The glutton in his stomach was hooked up, and he salivated and looked under the tree, and his pace couldn't help but speed up a lot.

Smelling this scent and seeing Ruan Eryue's salivating expression, Xiahou Yin was very satisfied.

The cook was originally the royal cook of the most famous "Wei Shi Zhai" in the capital, Da Zui Tong.He is very arrogant on weekdays, if it wasn't for Xiahou Yin, it would be very difficult for others to invite him out to do these things.

At this moment, Dazui Tong changed into a linen gown, with a fake beard on his face, and his hair was disheveled on top of his head.He spoke with the taste of the Northeast, and his face was flushed by the fire. At first glance, he was really not much different from the busy uncles in the mud pond!
Ji Mo set the table, and said respectfully to Xiahou Yin and Ruan Eryue who came in, "Master, Miss Ruan Si, this is a freshly grilled fish. My subordinates are drooling, come quickly!" Try it."

As he said that, he poured two more glasses of sweet wine and said with a smile, "This is the most famous fruit wine here. It is said that it is made from the wild fruits they picked up the mountain. It is sweet but not greasy. It has been chilled in the well all the time. It is most suitable for such a hot weather. It is a must with this grilled fish!"

Ruan Eryue reached out to pick up a glass of fruit wine, put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it for a while, then smiled and said, "Yes, the fruit in it must be the kind that grows wild on the mountain, and the round ones taste sour. It's just that There may not be any additives added, so the smell is quite intoxicating."

It has to be said that Ruan Eryue misses her the most since time travelling.It was the wine from the previous life, sweet and light, she always liked to sip a few glasses when she was fine.

An uncle who was going ashore to pick up farm tools looked at Ruan Eryue in surprise, walked over regardless of the mud all over his body, and gave Ruan Eryue a thumbs up, "This girl is really well-informed. It is made from the wild fruit I picked on the opposite mountain. I just don’t know the name of the wild fruit, but it is indeed round, and it tastes sour and very appetizing. So, I can’t pick up a few words, They just called the fruit a sour bead."

As he said that, the old man smiled cheerfully, "However, this fruit wine just smells a bit intoxicating, but it tastes really not intoxicating at all. So, you can drink it at ease."
