The upgrade of Concubine Xian in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 640
The other courtyard was only renovated before the Spring Festival this year. Yinzhen saw these two courtyards at first sight. This time, he came out with Hongli to do missions. Hongli gave him money in advance and gave him a lot of help. Ba Ye Of the three members of the party, he was the first to follow along.

"Fourth brother, how is it here?" Hong Zhou stood beside Hong Li, with a proud smile on his face.

"When was it renovated?" Hongli asked.

"Before the Spring Festival, it is said that many people were staring at it." Hong Zhou said meritoriously.

"It's done, let's rest first, let's go out again in three days." Hongli hurried all the way and lived in the inn, so he really didn't have time to rest.

He was finally able to return to the courtyard, completely relaxed, talking to Zarafin, not to mention being wary of someone eavesdropping.

"Ah Hun, you should take a break too." Zarafin said directly.

Tortoise made the bed, and Zarafin helped Hongli change into his pajamas, and they lay side by side on the bed.

Hongli embraced her in his arms, and kissed her on the forehead. He has been busy dealing with things these days, and he can't do some unruly things outside. At least, Hongli won't do it.

"Ah, it's outside." Zarafen's small voice made Hongli laugh out loud.

"I know!" Hongli turned over and pressed on her body, looking down at Zarafin's blushing little face
When the sky was slightly bright, Zarafin fell into a coma. She woke up for the last time before going to sleep. She cursed in her heart, who said that Xiaosi is an iceberg? If it is an iceberg, who is that on her body?
Near noon, Zarafin woke up completely, feeling that his body was sore and weak, and the tortoise shell heard the movement in the inner bedroom, and hurried in.

"Wait for me to get up!" Zarafin's voice was slightly hoarse, and she moved her body to get up, but accidentally got involved somewhere, causing her to gasp.

"Master, I told you to use a glass of warm water first." Dian Cui was on duty yesterday, heard some noises, and followed Gao Wuyong's suggestion early, and prepared bath water for Zarafin.

After Zarafin drank the water, the tortoise waited for her to get up.

"Where is the master?" Zarafin found that Hongli was not in the room, and felt very strange.

"At Maoshi, the Lord took Gao Wuyong out, and said he couldn't come back for lunch, so he asked the slaves to wake up the master before lunch." Tortoiseshell spoke quickly.

Zarafin nodded: "You don't need to insert so many hairpins, just keep it simple."

"Yes!" Tortoiseshell responded quickly.

Zarafin looked into the bronze mirror, she rolled up her curly hair, and she wore a gold hairpin of dotted emerald hibiscus flower on it, and a cloisonne gourd earring on each ear.

Tortoise helped Zarafin to walk into the dining room. She looked at the dining table, where there were several side dishes she liked, a bowl of wonton, a bowl of thin beef ramen, a few dishes of side dishes, steamed buns and soup dumplings Give a cage.

Although there are many types of things for breakfast, the portion is very small.

The cook brought out by Hongli was from the study in the front yard. Zarafin occasionally asked the small dining room to prepare some food. As long as Hongli thought it was good, he would let the cook in the front yard learn it.

"The taste is still very good. For dinner, tell the dining room to prepare a hot pot. You don't need any special soup base, just put green onions, ginger slices, red dates, and longan. A plate of lamb, a plate of small fat beef, Make the ramen thinner, and let the cook watch the rest." Zarafin ordered.

"Yes!" Tortoisebill led the order and left.

The hot pot is the fastest to prepare. I don't know when I will be back. Even if the dining room is preparing dinner, it is mainly stew.

Zarafin is the one who dislikes stews the most, unless he is going to the palace to receive a banquet, otherwise, Zarafin basically would not eat stews.

After breakfast, she lazily leaned on the beauty couch in the study, holding a book, and bathed in the sun. On the high table beside her, there were eight dishes of refreshments, and a small white porcelain cloisonné cup beside her. The lid was put aside, and inside was the rock sugar bird's nest soup just made by the dining room.

When the sun was setting, Hongli came in from the outside, and Zarafin saw him coming in through the window, directly threw the book on the beauty's couch, pulled on his thousand-layer-soled shoes, and rushed out to welcome him.

"Why did you run out?" Hongli saw that she was wearing thin clothes and stood directly on the steps, the evening wind was still a little cool.

"Master, you are back, of course I want to welcome you." Zarafin had a smile on his face.

Hongli took her hand and walked directly to the dining room.

After freshening up, the two sat around the dining table. Soon, the people in the dining room put the hot pot on the table, cut the beef and lamb into thin slices, took out the ivory hairpin, and dipped the meat slices in the hot pot twice. , I just dipped it in sesame sauce and ate it.

"It's really tender and delicious." Zarafin likes hot pot very much. In winter, he eats hot pot every tenth and ninth day, and the dining room prepares all kinds of bottoms.

"Like it so much?" Hongli pursed his lips and laughed.

"Well, I like it very much, sir, it feels hot after eating, and I don't like those stews." Zarafin looked at him aggrieved.

"Ticky." Hongli shook his head helplessly, "Zalafen, eat less hot pot in hot weather, you will get angry, you know?"

Hongli had to admit that the hot pot was delicious. After arriving in Zhili, due to the uncertain whereabouts of Hongli and Yinyu, the dining room could only cook stews. After eating for a few days, he was really tired.

"As long as you like to eat, sir, you are very busy these days, and the dining room always cooks stews, so I just want to eat hot pot for a few days, and change the taste from time to time." Zarafen looked at Hong I ate a lot, and I was very happy.

"Well, this is a good idea." Hongli praised Zarafin.

After dinner, Hongli took Zarafin's little hand and walked into the study room. Zarafin would go out with him tomorrow to discuss 'business'.

"Master, I'll go with you tomorrow?" Zarafin was very surprised after hearing Hongli's plan.

"Well, let's go together, the other party is most vigilant." Hongli said directly.

"You mean, there are really people who resell the government's grain?" Zhalafen was surprised by Hongli's simple mention.

Those food relief foods that were basically transported from the capital, Fu Yin actually boldly wanted to sell them.

"En!" Hongli nodded, "I will play the role of a grain purchaser from the capital tomorrow. You are the young lady, and the two of us are from the capital."

"Is there something wrong with this, let Fujin know?" Zarafin wanted to persuade.

"No, the matter is more urgent. If you delay for one more day, your identity may be leaked." Hongli only wanted to deal with it as soon as possible. He observed for several days, and the dams near the water were being repaired, but the things used were divided. several grades.

The dikes and dams in front of the houses of high-ranking officials and dignitaries such as courtiers and squires are made of the best materials, while all other places are made of old materials.
