The girl who wears fast

Chapter 14 The Prime Minister's Tool Man Stepwife (14)

Xu Shichu had no choice but to ask Zhixia to pour Luo Changqing a glass too.

Luo Changqing took a sip of the so-called milk tea, the elegant tea taste mixed with the mellow milk, the mouthfeel was silky, and it had a different flavor than tea.

Xu Shichu picked up a delicate little silver spoon, took out a small pearl and put it into her mouth, it was smooth and smooth... Every time at this time, she once again regretted that there were no straws in this era, and the pearls in milk tea do not need straws Come out, how much fun is missing.

Xu Shichu let his mind wander for a while, and saw the small and exquisite silver spoon with carvings in his hand, and felt that it would be fine without a straw. This little silver spoon was sold enough to buy thousands of straws. The luxurious life of being the wife of the prime minister It's really addictive.

Thinking of this, Xu Shichu secretly glanced at Luo Changqing gratefully. It was all thanks to the old man who chose the original owner as a toolman, so she graciously asked Zhixia to pour another glass for Luo Changqing.

After Luo Changqing tried this novelty, he said to Xu Shichu: "During the banquet tonight, help me observe the behavior of several official wives: the wife of Xu Qi, the head of the Imperial Academy, Jing Zhao Yin Zhoulan's wife, Mrs. Zheng Guogong..."

He reported several wives of high-ranking officials and nobles in one breath, and Xu Shichu hurriedly stopped with some headaches: "You said so many, how can I remember them clearly? I know their identities, but I haven't combined their appearance and The name is right on the number, you think highly of me too."

"Nurse Zhang will remind you." Luo Changqing said, Nanny Zhang was the one who came out of the palace to teach Xu Shichu how to behave.

"That's fine, but why do you want me to pay attention to the behavior of these women? Could it be you? Tsk tsk tsk..." Xu Shichu looked at Luo Changqing in feigned surprise.

Luo Changqing's face turned dark when he heard Xu Shichu's words, and he stared at Xu Shichu and reprimanded: "What nonsense are you talking about?! I want you to see how their temper and character are, and whether they are suitable for being mothers-in-law. After all, they have A fine son!"

Only then did Xu Shichu nod with a "sudden realization": "So that's the case! Who told you not to make it clear, I thought you had something wrong with them."

"Shut up!" Luo Changqing glanced at Xu Shichu with sharp phoenix eyes, and warned her not to talk nonsense.

Xu Shichu was not afraid of him, and said with a smile: "Didn't you say that you don't want me to take care of your daughter's affairs, why are you using me now, aren't you afraid that I will play tricks?"

Luo Changqing glanced at her, and said lightly: "I thought you were from Chongming, and I knew who made you live in peace."

"It's you. It's fine. Let me tell you the truth. I will truthfully state the facts I have observed, but you also know that I am just an ordinary person. My opinions will be involuntarily influenced by my personal concepts and morals. Maybe it's not objective enough, so if there is any mistake, you can't blame me! Don't say it was unpredictable!" Xu Shichu said solemnly, she didn't want to get involved in the thankless matter of Luo Yaqing's marriage.

Luo Changqing said: "I just let you observe as a basis for my reference, not for you to make a decision. I won't make a decision on my daughter's life because of your one-sided remarks. You don't have to worry so much."

"Then I'm relieved." Xu Shichu patted his chest.

After drinking milk tea and eating snacks, according to Xu Shichu's usual habit of riding in a carriage, she should lie down now, but now she is wearing a grand and luxurious palace dress, which cannot be wrinkled at all. I dare not sit for too long, I have to get up after a while to smooth out the wrinkles, and of course it is even more impossible to lie down.

She had no choice but to lift the curtains of the car and look out in boredom.But now it was dusk, the pedestrians on the street were gradually decreasing, and there was nothing exciting to see. Xu Shichu raised a beautiful face and looked around, with a soft white hand unconsciously clutching the curtain of the small window .

Luo Changqing's eyes were involuntarily attracted by that white hand like jade, and those slender and moist fingers stirred and stirred, which was extremely cute.

Until Xu Shichu turned around and asked him: "Are the people in the palace easy to get along with? Ah, I really asked a stupid question! There is no easy way to get along with high-ranking people..." As she spoke, she became annoyed again, clutching her hands. The curtain's hand let go of the curtain, lifted it up and patted his forehead lightly.

Only then did Luo Changqing seem to have been awakened, shifted his gaze uncomfortably, and regained his usual elegance and dignity, saying: "As long as you keep yourself safe, be cautious in your words and deeds, and don't do anything out of line, no one will do anything to help you." Not you."

"Of course I won't do anything outrageous. I cherish my life the most! You are the prime minister, so if I am honored by you, can I also play prestige in front of those high-ranking officials and nobles?" Once Xu Shichu lost his worries, He asked with a big smile.

Luo Changqing squinted at her: "Are you trying to pretend to be a tiger again?"

"Can't you?" Xu Shichu asked back.

"Okay, but have a sense of proportion." Luo Changqing said, he is really tolerant, as long as his daughters are not involved, and his bottom line is not involved, other things will go at Xu Shichu's discretion, and what he said at the beginning has been counted. .

Luo Changqing felt the speed of the carriage slowly moving forward, and suddenly realized that the feeling of riding in this carriage was different from when he usually entered the palace.

He closed his eyes and felt for a while, then opened them suddenly, and asked Xu Shichu: "Your carriage seems to be very strong in terms of shock resistance."

Xu Shichu paused, surprised at his acuity in his heart, but said calmly on his face, "It's just a modified wheel."

"How to reform?" Luo Changqing asked, staring at her closely.

"Although the wheels of my carriage are also made of wood, they are covered with a thick layer of wood glue. The glue is elastic after being solidified, which can reduce the vibration of the carriage when it is driving." Xu Shichu said It is rubber.

The origin of the rubber tree is not here. Xu Shichu’s rubber is obtained from the rubber tree in her accompanying space. When she first came to this world, she was skinny, and every time she took a carriage, her bones ached and her bones ached. , so she quietly used the rubber tree sap produced in her own space to make rubber wheels.

The anti-shock methods of ancient carriages relied on paving the road first, placing soft cloth pads on them, and slowing down the speed thirdly. However, no matter how flat the road is, how soft the cloth pads are, and how slow the speed is, the carriage still bumps uncomfortably.

So Xu Shichu's gentle and comfortable carriage was immediately different from Luo Changqing's usual carriage.

"What kind of tree glue is it?" Luo Changqing asked again, he was surprised that Xu Shichu could think of using tree juice to make wheels.

Xu Shichu said without changing his face: "A kind of sap called rubber tree grows in a foreign country, and I got it from a foreign merchant by chance. I tried its use in a whimsical way, but I didn't expect to have an unexpected joy in transforming the wheel. .”
