The upgrade of Concubine Xian in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 616
On the hillside in the suburbs, Zarafin found that the farmers here are very hardworking. Even young children would pick up a small hoe during the day to add strength to the family.

Zarafin handed over the purse to several children with surprise on their faces.

"Master, what are you here for?" The girls were not in very high grades, and they were very curious about Zarafin.

Zarafin pursed his lips and smiled: "I'm a little curious to see your actions on the hillside, so come and have a look!"

The girls saw Zarafin holding the small box and thought it was a picnic.

"This is delicious, we will dig it in spring!" The girl introduced to Zarafin, besides shepherd's purse, there are some things that Zarafin feels strange.

Seeing the children's skillful actions, Zarafin couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

"Do you eat these on weekdays?" Zarafin asked.

Although the Qing Dynasty was a big agricultural country, its output was very low. Therefore, many people could not eat enough and wear warm clothes.

"Yeah, so there will be more green on the table!" The girl had a satisfied smile on her face.

Although Zarafin's family was demoted, E Shuo and others relied on their own abilities and did not allow their wives and children to live a life of hardship. They were simple and happy. Zarafin was pampered at home since childhood and never did anything What a painful decision.

"Can you teach me how to dig these?" Zarafin looked at the wild vegetables in the little girl's hands, as if he was learning with humility. Zarafin knew some wild vegetables, but he was not as proficient as the little girl, thinking it was Something is different.

"Of course!" The little girl nodded, "There are a lot of them on this slope, you can dig them out with a shovel."

Zarafin repeated several times, and the girl saw that Zarafin was very proficient, so she left directly. Zarafin watched the girl's leaving back, rolled up her sleeves, and went to work hard.

"Master, please take a rest." Just after the time for a cup of tea, Zarafin's actions obviously slowed down, Suzhu hurried forward, ready to help Zarafin.

"Go and stand by the side." Zarafin's stubborn temper appeared again. The girl who taught her in the distance was still digging diligently. It would be bad if she rested.

However, the small shovel made her hands burn, but she still refused to admit defeat.

In the field, Hongli had already changed into cotton clothes, rolled up his trouser legs, and started planting rice seedlings.

"Little boy, give the things to Su Zhu!" Hongli raised his head and noticed that there was something wrong with Su Yan's expression, he hurried forward and asked Zarafen to throw the shovel to Su Zhu.

He just went to hold Zarafin's little hand, and he obviously felt that she hid for a while. Hongli felt it, and took a quick look. Her tender little hand was already red and swollen, and there were some cracks in the middle. skin place.

Zarafin lowered his head and saw his palm, and lamented in his heart, Zarafin really didn't do any hard work. In the past, growing some vegetables in the palace was just the minimum amount of labor.

"Follow me obediently!" Hongli's face darkened, Zarafin lowered his head, and hurriedly left with Hongli.

Zarafin followed Hongli to the rest hall, he asked Gao Wuyong to get the medicine box, and he sat there to give her the medicine himself.

"Master, I just watched, those children are fine digging wild vegetables, and I don't admit defeat!" Zarafin hurried to die, he just refused to admit defeat, it wasn't intentional at all.

Hongli glared at her, are their identities the same?I don't have any ideas in my heart, I just throw things to the servants when the novelty is over, why do I have to do it myself?

"Being someone in the palace, I didn't see you being so impulsive." Hongli poked Zarafin's small head, and gently applied medicine to her with his right hand. Every time he touched the wound, Zarafin gasped , some are too painful.

Under his angry glaring, Zarafin didn't dare to resist at all, and could only stretch out his little hand silently.

Tears were condensed in her big apricot eyes, but she stubbornly did not dare to let them fall, and she secretly felt a little affection in her heart.

"Cry, it's so uncomfortable, what are you holding back for?" Hongli looked at Zarafin and asked.

Zarafin shook his head, he was determined not to cry, this New Year's Eve, if he cried, it would be a bad luck for Fourth Master.

"Now during the Chinese New Year, Fujin has said that no matter what happens, you are not allowed to cry, otherwise, for a year, things will not go well for you." Zarafin's words warmed Hongli's heart Yes, Zarafin really put her in the most important position in his heart.

"After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the year is over, so you can cry if you feel sad!" Hongli didn't care about this, Xipin forced him to go back to that year. He was on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. He hid under the quilt and cried for a while, but in the second year, Hongli felt that his life went smoothly.

The rules that Fujin said, Hongli only counted on the two Gege, and it didn't work on Zarafin.

"Master" Zarafin cried out heartily. During the Chinese New Year, Zarafin missed home very much.

The two days spent at Ulanara's house reminded Zarafin even more of his childhood days in modern times.

"Okay. After Mr. Narbu comes back, I will take you back to stay for two days!" E Shuo has a high status in Kangxi's heart, so he told Hongli that when E Shuo returned to Beijing, he had better try his best No worries, it will definitely be useful to learn more from him.

Zarafin tilted his head and said, "Master, this is against the rules, so you don't have to make an exception for me!"

Even Fujin rarely visits her natal family, unless there is something important, if Hongli takes her back directly, he will definitely be envied by other female relatives.

Hongli did not speak, but patted Zarafin on the back, calming down her agitated mood slowly.

"Master, I saw those little girls carrying corned buns. Just now, I tasted it, and it tasted really bad!" Zarafin said quickly.

"How much have you eaten, you girl, why dare to eat anything in your mouth!" Hongli became anxious when he heard Zhalafin say that he ate something of unknown origin, and called Gao Wuyong in multiple voices, telling him to hurry up. Go ask the doctor.

"Master, it doesn't matter, that girl can eat it too, why can't I?" Zarafin thought that his stomach was normal.

He squeezed Zarafin's little face. If those people framed Zarafin, the other party would be able to gain a higher status at the cost of a girl, and the other party would definitely be moved.

However, Hongli did not say it, hoping that Zarafin would not feel uncomfortable.

"Little boy, remember what I said, even if it is something given by the child, you can't put it in your mouth. Do you still keep the food?" Hongli asked anxiously.

"Yes, I don't think it tastes good. I just ate a little bit. It's such a big piece, so I ate a little bit!" Zarafin quickly took out a piece of dark yellow corn bread from his purse.

Hongli looked at the Wotou, half-closed his eyes, and smelled something wrong, but the aroma of wild vegetables was too strong, and Zarafin could be forgiven for not noticing it.

Doctor Yuan walked in from the outside, Hongli was not only a little curious.

In the main hall, Zarafin stretched out her right arm, and Imperial Physician Yuan knelt on one knee, diagnosing her pulse.

Hongli sat on the side, looking at Yuan Yuyi's slightly frowning appearance, feeling a little worried.

"Fourth Master, the pulse condition of the side Fujin hasn't changed, the master must have eaten something unclean." Yuyuan Yuan found that the food that Zarafen ate was incompatible with her nourishing medicine.

Zarafin was taken aback, was what Hongli said right?

"Look at this!" Hongli directly handed Yuan Yuyi a cornbread, "See if there is something wrong with this!"

Doctor Yuan took the cornbread respectfully, put it under his nose and smelled it, and directly identified it with his eyes closed.

"Fourth Master, this time it must be right. There is something wrong with this cornbread, but it is not carefully prepared by people, but a problem in the wild vegetables!" Yuan Yu doctor replied respectfully.

Zarafin raised his head in surprise, seeing what Yuan Yuyuan said, it turns out that wild vegetables can't be mixed together.

"Yuan Yu, can you tell which two kinds of wild vegetables they are?" Zarafin felt that if Yuan Yu could tell the difference, he should be able to help the villagers here.

Yuyuan Yuan got up and glanced at Hongli, who also nodded, telling him to speak as much as possible.

"I'll write it down for you, my servant. There are still many taboos!" Yuan Yuji wrote it down directly on the small kang table beside him.

These are all the experiences of the imperial physicians of the imperial hospital. Kangxi's royal conquest, every time there is no food and grass, will use wild vegetables to attack. These lists of mutual restraints are exchanged for the blood of countless soldiers.

Zarafin looked at the two thin papers, these were lessons paid for with blood, she felt heavy holding them in her hand.

"Yuan Yu, how to resolve the situation of my little boy?" Hongli asked Yuan Yu directly.

"Let Fang Fujin drink mung bean soup for two days, this is not a medicine, but it is the most detoxifying." Doctor Yuan thought for a while, according to Zarafin's habit, it is important not to like those bitter things.

Every time I prescribe Zalafin, I have to worry about my brain, and basically use these dietary methods to solve the problem.

"Well, ask the small dining room to prepare some mung bean soup." Hongli explained to Gao Wuyong.

"Can sugar be added to mung bean soup?" Zarafin looked at Yuyuan Yuan and said.

"Cian Fujin, this is not acceptable, you can use it directly." Yuan Yu smiled bitterly, "If sugar is added, the effect will definitely not be as good as without sugar."

"You heard me, I will let Su Zhu stare at you, if you dare to put sugar in it, don't blame me for making you drink it again." Hongli said with a stare at Zarafin.

Zarafin flattened his mouth: "Understood!"

Hongli was relieved only when he got the guarantee from Zhalafen. Hongli would occasionally go on errands, and such errands could only be entrusted to Suzhu.

"In addition, the side Fujin has to avoid some food." Yuyuan Yuan and Hongli said.

When Zarafin heard the name of the food that Yuyuan Yu said, her complexion became more and more pale. Most of the foods that Yuyu Yuan asked to avoid were Zarafen's favorite food.

"Well, I'll keep an eye on it." Hongli nodded, and he wrote down what Yu Yuyuan said, "Gao Wuyong, ask Yu Yuyuan to write down a list and give it to the little girl in Zarafen Courtyard. Dining Room, remember, have someone tear down those divisions and add some other divisions."

"Hey!" Gao Wuyong took the lead.

After Yuan Yuyuan left, Zarafin sat softly on the grand master's chair, and Hongli looked at Zarafin with a smile on his lips.

"Little boy, you don't have any taboos on the seafood you like to eat!" Hongli's words made Zarafin pouted.

The delicacies are basically inedible, and the recipes for the beginning of spring have at least seven to ten days, so you can't touch these delicacies anymore.

"Su Zhu, go and pick some elm coins, take them away, let's make some cold dishes to eat," Zhalafen wanted to eat some delicious cold dishes, "Also, pick some Sophora japonica flowers, these are delicious at home of!"

In Si Ye's mansion, there are no locust trees or elm trees, so if Zarafin wants to eat, he must find his way outside.

"Hey!" Su Zhu took the order and left.

Hongli listened silently to what Zarafin said. He knew something about it. He had used these in the northwest in the spring when the Long Live Lord went out to fight.

"Little boy, these two things are not delicious!" Hongli found that Zarafin was very good at tossing, and these fresh foods made him want to try them too.

He came back to the farm to farm every year, on the one hand, to show Kangxi, and on the other hand, he also hoped to strengthen his health.

Among the elder brothers, his force value is not the highest, but only moderate.

"Master, those are very delicious, so I can only use some of them for a while, and we really can't get them at other times!" Zarafin said helplessly.

At this time, Zarafin really hopes that these delicacies can be found all year round like in modern times.

"Little boy, are you sure you can do it well?" Hongli remembered that the imperial chef hadn't cooked anything well. If Kangxi hadn't been hungry alone, the imperial chef would have been punished. The elder brothers said no Out.

"Of course, I have eaten it when I was at home!" Zarafin nodded, "There are also shepherd's purse dumplings, which are also good."

Hongli listened to the delicacies that Zarafin ate, and looked at the little girl talking with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and the smile on her face grew more and more.

"When the time comes, I will go and taste it. Remember, you are not allowed to eat anything given by others!" Hongli was worried that Zarafen would not be able to hold back those children, and any food he took, even a small piece of corn bread, would cause trouble. It's such a big trouble.

Zarafin nodded obediently: "Master, it's just this time, I have already learned a lesson!"

Hongli nodded in satisfaction, Zarafin can take care of his body, so he can rest assured.

Outside the door, Su Zhu got the list from Gao Wuyong, looking at the list above, she felt a little bit of a shock in her heart, most of the things that Zarafin likes to eat are basically here.

"Eunuch Su, are these things really unusable?" Su Zhu looked at Gao Wuyong and asked.

Gao Wuyong nodded: "Physician Yuan said that it must be taboo!"

Su Zhu sighed: "I guess the master is going to make a fuss again!"

Eunuch Su burst out laughing, Zarafin has a greedy temper, if someone blocks her favorite food, Zarafin will definitely retaliate.

"Suzhu, you will have to work hard during this time. The master said, try to keep the side Fujin away from eating. In addition, you have to eat three bowls of unsweetened mung bean soup every day." Gao Wuyong told Su Zhu.

Su Zhu looked at Gao Wuyong in surprise: "The master actually agreed?"

"Yes, I promised my master, I will definitely not use these things!" Gao Wuyong remembered Zarafin's face, it was really ugly!
