Hongwu Survival Guide

Chapter 231 Zhongli Watermelon

It was too tiring to enter the palace yesterday, and to make up for it, there were more tricks in the evening, and it was a new day to get up much later.

Looking at the hourglass in the bedroom, it was almost noon.

Liu Bai brought Caisang, Chai'er and other maidservants in to serve her, but the bed was full of goblins, making her unable to do anything, especially a certain papaya girl, who was simply... unreasonable.Looking down at himself again, Liu Bai felt even more critically hit.

I can't help but whisper in my heart.

It's 'corn', 'potato', 'sweet potato', and 'papaya'. Although I haven't seen what it is, I think it's similar to 'wheat' and 'sorghum'. My adults can still remember such names. Here comes the interest.

snort!
Humming in his heart, Liu Bai also thought of his sister Xieyi who had already set a date, while being a little bit jealous, it was more of a blessing.My sister is looking forward to it, and quietly is still preparing.I also understand that my sister has been waiting, and I will not be far away.

Just a little worried about it.

Fortunately, I was on duty last night, so I know that my adults are still just having fun, nothing more.

Otherwise...

Ok.

The adults are their gods, and there is nothing they can do.

However, right now... I must hum in my heart twice.

Zhu Yuan, who had just put on his shirt under the service of the goblins around him, saw a girl with a stinky expression, pushed off the one that was tired of her body, brushed aside a few colorful lings hanging from the bed frame, and smiled. Signaled to the girl: "Come on, Xiaomi, let Daddy kiss you."

But I did not forget.

A certain girl, nicknamed 'Xiaomi', is similar to the group around her.

Liu Bai remembered that his adults praised her cute nickname, and he was happy about it for a while, but now... he doesn't like it in an instant.However, after a little hesitation, the girl still came to the bed obediently, leaned over to lean on the bed, but stubbornly stopped cooperating with a certain little interest that her adult liked, and deliberately called: "My lord... It's almost noon Well, get up quickly."

As he spoke, he felt his little face being held, and subconsciously moved closer, feeling his cheek being kissed, so he became slightly resentful again.

It was supposed to be a kiss.

In fact, I also know that this is the little thoughtfulness of my adults, because I haven't brushed my teeth and rinsed my mouth, but she doesn't mind it, not to mention that adults like to be clean, and there will be no smell in their mouths when they get up early.

After a lot of tossing, I finally got dressed.

Zhu Yuan didn't like to wash in the bedroom, so Liu Bai left with his adults first, and winked at Caimulberry and Chai'er when he went out.

There was no tiger here, and Cai Sang suddenly became a king, glaring at the goblins on the bed, pretending to be a tiger: "Hurry up and put on your clothes, all of them are out of shape."

Chai'er also made a small face beside her, just like Sister Liu Bai.

Although they are just maidservants, they have a psychological advantage in front of the group who have just entered the mansion not long ago. Apart from other things, they are just two names of 'picking mulberry' and 'hairpin phoenix', and they feel that they are better than 'potatoes' , 'corn' and the like are too serious.

Gee!
A bunch of crops!
Therefore, when talking, Cai Sang deliberately touched the crystal plate with the word "Cai Mulberry" engraved on his waist.

Cai Sang and Chai Erhu pretended to be Huwei, but there were a group of eight girls here who responded differently.

The papaya girl squinted, still walking slowly, as if she didn't hear the words of the two girls at all, she searched left and right, but couldn't find her bust for a while, so forget it, put on a light green gauze dress, and ordered A girl who was younger than me said, "Spinach, help me comb my hair."

Then, facing Caisang and Chai'er, she leaned lazily and let the girl named Spinach fix her hair, and deliberately glanced at the two girls' ordinary bodies, saying: " Dad allowed me to live in East Garden last night, and she was with me every day."

Caisang and Chai'er stared at the "sickness" in front of them, remembering the incident that their adults teased them "hairtail" a few days ago and were kicked out of bed because of it, their momentum was immediately taken away, and they were stunned for a moment, but Chai'er reluctantly let go Mouth: "There is no room in the East Garden."

"Why not? I've seen it all. There are many vacant houses in the Treasure Building." The papaya girl was clearly prepared, and she stood up straight again: "Father said that slaves are treasures, so of course they can live in the Treasure Building."

Cai Sang: "..."

Chai'er: "..."

Can't take it... sue.

Reluctantly dropping a few words on the scene, the two girls fled in despair.

Cai Sang and Chai Er left, and the victorious Papaya was even more arrogant, and glanced around: "Although I am not the oldest, you will treat me as a sister from now on. I am favored by adults, and I can take care of you, but do you know?"

Of the other seven girls, three subconsciously nodded, the other four hesitated slightly, two more nodded, and the last two were obviously reluctant.

Papaya can be seen one by one in the eyes and remembered in the heart, and it is not forced.

They are all degraded people who were escorted from the newly occupied lands of the Ming Dynasty in the north and south. If they enter the current deep house and compound, if they have no single-minded thoughts, they may die if they are alive. This is the papaya of the daughter of a wealthy family in Shanxi. I am very touched by this. .

Because she is a concubine, life is not easy. Although she has just turned sixteen, she already knows too much. .

Let's just say... If it wasn't for this incident, the cruel father almost sent her to be a concubine to a ten thousand households in the prairie in order to cling to the nobleman.It's just that before there was enough time, the war broke out, and the hundreds of years of the big family were also shattered.At present, compared to other sisters in the family, Papaya finds that her fate is better than when the family was not ruined, because she knows that the young master of this mansion will be named a prince in the future, which is higher than the ten thousand households in the prairie.

If I can have another son and a half daughter in the future, I will not worry about it in this life.

Thinking about it for a while, Papaya said to the three who nodded first: "Spinach", "Pea" and "Sorghum": "Find clothes for me quickly, and I will take you to kowtow to the adults later to say hello."

After saying this, the other four expressions all moved.

'Pepper', who was nodding behind just now, stepped forward: "Sister, I'll help you find it, too."

Papaya nodded in response, and stared at the remaining three who were still hesitating: "You don't have to, just take care of yourself."

In the dining room in the west wing of the inner house.

Zhu Yuan sat in the dining room, the time was 11:30 noon, and he didn't know whether it was breakfast or lunch.

While eating, he was still admiring the new batch of crystal plates that were just delivered in the morning on the tray at hand. These were the names of those women that Lao Zhu bestowed on him for the first time after returning to Jinling. No Proof', 'Blowing Cold', 'Three Points', 'Changing Expectations', 'Still Still', 'Looking Over', 'Happy Love', 'Blowing Down', 'Lighting Up', 'Wandering', 'End of Happiness', 'Scattered', 'Blowing the Horn', 'First Break', 'Late Come', 'Third Watch', 'Going Back', 'Shake Down', 'Normal'.

Although no single word was extracted, the style is still unified.

neat.

A servant girl reported outside, saying that it was some papaya, Zhu Yuan put down a purple crystal tablet in his hand, and nodded.

The big and small people surrounding her stepped aside, and a certain oval-faced girl who was more aggressive than a sack led a group of girls from last night to bow their heads and walk forward, even if they walked very slowly, wrapped in a red jacket because it was too big A couple that can't hide it is inevitable that there will be some movement.

This girl went all the way to Zhu Yuan's feet, and then she knelt down together with the other girls: "My slaves and sisters came to say hello to Daddy."

Zhu Yuan glanced at the ground, there were eight of them in total, and felt that the first five and the last three... seemed to be divided into two groups, so he didn't think much about it, and waited for the girls to kowtow before saying, "Get up."

Papaya stood up and stood right next to Zhu Yuan, facing a group of girls staring at her, she didn't move at all. In addition, she was also tall, and her aggressive aura was more condescending, very oppressive, Zhu Yuan Feeling the situation around her, she also glanced at the sack girl on the other side, a big melon and a small watermelon, but no matter how big or small, melons are still slightly inferior to watermelons.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuan smiled while eating with a crystal siu mai, "I suddenly realized that the name was wrong, you should be called watermelon, not papaya."

The girl said immediately after hearing the words: "Whatever father said to call the slave, the slave will be called whatever."

"Then change it, it just happens to be your brand," Zhu Yuan gestured to the tray on the side: "It's just watermelon. Well, what was your original name?"

The girl who changed from a papaya to a watermelon in a blink of an eye said softly, "Daddy, my surname is Zhongli, I'm number 22, and I'm called 22 mother when I'm at home."

"Mother Zhongli 22, what a long name, and it will be called Zhongli Watermelon in the future, so it will be shorter," Zhu Yuan joked, and asked with great interest, "Your family has a lot of brothers and sisters, where are they from, and what do they do?"

"I'm from Taiyuan, Shanxi. My grandfather was a councilor in the former court." The freshly baked Zhongli Watermelon nodded a little, enough was enough, and then added: "Father, 22 is only sisters. If you count brothers, slaves It's No.30, and there are 51 people of the same generation in the family."

What a big family.

Zhu Yuan thought about it, and then thought about Zhongshu's consultation, which is the fourth grade.

The watermelon girl pointed out this, which is probably the ceiling of Zhongli's family in recent generations.

As for Taiyuan.

In the place where Wang Baobao's golden cicada escaped, tens of thousands of surrendered troops were left behind, and the local nobles who cooperated with Taiyuan to defend the city can also imagine their fate.

Zhu Yuan didn't have much interest in Zhongli's family, but expanded Timur, both Lao Zhu and Zhu Yuan have been paying attention.

A piece of news from the grasslands last month was finally confirmed. Kuo Kuo is currently stationed in Qianyuan and Linxing provinces outside the Great Wall, probably in the later Outer Mongolia.

After most of them were taken over in one pot, the Yuan Dynasty lost its orthodoxy, and the grassland was now a mess of sand, and the expansion was in conflict with Helin and the local military town. It also tried to march into Gansu, but failed.As for more specific news, Daming's espionage network in the north has just begun to be laid, and there is no way to get more for a while.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuan ate a siu mai, motioned to a glass of milk next to him, and before the other girls could make a move, the watermelon girl beside him skillfully brought it over and offered it to him. Seeing Zhu Yuan take a sip, he took the initiative to find something to say: "Father, but milk?"

Zhu Yuan put down his cup: "What's wrong?"

Zhongli Watermelon said: "Father, cow's milk is cold in nature, if it's an ordinary person, it can also nourish your body. You should drink less."

Zhu Yuan laughed: "You still understand this?"

The girl said modestly: "I was picked here because I can read a few words." Then she made a small gesture to the glass: "If dad likes to drink it, he should have replaced it with goat's milk, which is warm and tasteless. Poison, and the five internal organs, the most tonic."

Zhu Yuan shook his head: "It doesn't smell good."

"Then..." Nizi twitched a little bit, and said softly, "...there is another kind."

A group of people, big and small, who understood instantly, looked at a certain girl's chest together, all kinds of bubbling in their hearts.

"Wandering hooves!"

"spit!"

"Little fairy!"

"It's really shameless."

"..."

Caisang and Chai'er, who had just been frustrated in the bedroom, looked at Lubai, as if they only wanted the elder sister to speak, um...the elder sister asked the adults to speak, and then they stepped forward to pull out a certain rascal.

Of course, Zhu Yuan understood the words of a certain girl, looked up at the scenery slightly, and asked with a mocking smile, "Do you have any?"

Zhongli Shuigua shook his head, and his soft voice was a little bit more charming: "No, only if Dad gives it to me."

This……

Zhu Yuan stopped in time.

Besides, there is no edge.

A certain girl kept saying, "Father, I know one."

"what?"

"He came to Jinling with his slave." Zhongli Shuigua cast a careful glance at Zhu Yuan before saying again, "As a father, if you ask, you will definitely be able to ask for it."

Zhu Yuan didn't pay attention to one aspect, but thought of another: "Your family?"

The girl nodded.

He hesitated a little, but still didn't explain in detail right away.

family?

That's right.

But...not dear.

I also know that it is inappropriate to speak so abruptly, if I offend the adults in front of me, I will be reprimanded if I speak less.However, getting along last night... I couldn't help feeling that my lord seems to be quite easy to talk to, plus, a concubine has accumulated grievances over the years, and couldn't hold back for a while.

Zhu Yuan also nodded: "Then ask for it," he said, turning to Xie Yi: "Let He Xuan do it later."

It's just a person, and it's just a criminal, so it's best to be impeached for it.

This is called continuous small mistakes.

After listening to her lord's order, Xieyi hesitated a little, but agreed.

Zhongli Shuigua didn't expect that things would be so easy, he opened his mouth slightly and forgot to close it for a while.

Zhu Yuan continued to take a sip of his own milk, waited for a while, and was quite satisfied before a certain girl got ahead.He doesn't dislike the women around him who have their own thoughts. If they don't have any thoughts, they will be a piece of wood. The key is to know how to measure.So he said: "Go, don't you want to move to East Garden, you can do it today, and besides..." Then she turned to Xieyi: "...and make some clothes for them, I like pretty ones."

Xieyi agreed again.

Thinking about it while talking, she turned back to the watermelon girl who was about to say goodbye: "According to what you said just now, you should all be literate, which is very good. You can help me do some sorting and transcribing in the future. In addition, continue to read more For some books, if you want to read something, you can find your sister Xieyi, or go to the library in the west courtyard to find it yourself."

Regarding these, it is still a consideration to not let the women in the house be too idle.

Make trouble at leisure.

Moreover, there are things to do, and people's spirits will be different.

Zhongli Watermelon Fushen agreed, confirmed that Zhu Yuan had no other orders, and then retreated with a group of girls.
