Qing wear story (106)

As the weather turned cooler, the atmosphere in the capital slowly cooled down.

Today, Lin Yutong took Mo Yaqi, Hong Shi and Hong Zhao to the lotus pond in the home to dig lotus roots.

Mo Yaqi looked at the dirty mud brought out by digging out the lotus root, and said with disgust: "People say that you dig out the radish and bring out the mud, this lotus root is white and fat, and the black mud brought out is not as clean as the mud on the radish. What." Everyone supports boats to pick lotus pods, but Di E-niang's style of painting is rather eccentric, thinking of digging lotus roots to eat.

Really... she shook her head. Although I have seen Ama and my younger brother touching loach, the impact of digging lotus roots is quite big.

"You, Ama, have a fever recently. Taking medicine is a big deal. This raw lotus root is better than medicine. I just added lotus root slices to make soup with caramel candy. Take one before going to bed at night to make sure you don't have a cough." Lin Yutong Sitting on the side of the pavilion, watching the people below dig lotus root.

With the autumn wind and the autumn rain, it will be cold if you say it's cool on this day. These children are used to coughing at this time.

Mo Yaqi understood this.

The lotus root in this lotus pond has not been dug for many years. Which master would think of eating it? They are all for viewing flowers.

The two were talking when they heard Hong Zhao scream in surprise, and Lin Yutong quickly stood up and looked over.

It turned out to be a big lotus root dug out.

Hong Shi shouted: "Don't move, take it up carefully. Don't break anything."

Lin Yutong asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Hong Shi pointed to the lotus root, "Niang Niang, look, what is the shape of the lotus root like?"

Lin Yutong raised his eyes and looked at Lotus, who was being carried by several eunuchs. This lotus root is big, but it is definitely not the chef's favorite, because it looks crooked and not straight at all. Cut up, not very good shape.

But when Hong Shi asked, there must be something different.

She took a closer look and realized that it was unknown that several lotus roots had grown together to form a continuous writing of the word "shou".

It really looks more and more like.

Nature is ingenious, and sometimes it is so magical.

After class, Hong Yun also ran to watch the fun. Seeing this from a distance, he rushed over immediately, "Take it carefully." Then he whispered to Lin Yutong: "Niang Niang, you should call Ama to come and see. Look. This garden was rewarded by the emperor, and it used to be the emperor's garden."

The implication is that now the emperor's garden has been dug up by his children and grandchildren, which is a good sign.

Lin Yutong was just surprised a moment ago, and didn't think about other places at all. Now that he was reminded by Hong Yun, he suddenly realized.

It turns out that political sensitivity really depends on talent.

Lin Yutong thought so, nodded, and hurriedly called someone to call the fourth master.

The fourth master came very quickly, and his feet rolled over like the wind, thinking that he had heard the news.

His serious expression made Lin Yutong a little embarrassed.

She stepped forward and blessed her, and the fourth master pulled her up, "You are really a lucky star. No one in this garden has ever thought about digging lotus root, and you suddenly became interested. You don't point to such a big pond, But it happened to point here. As a result, I dug up such a thing and came out, isn't it a lucky star?"

Lin Yutong's mouth moved. I wanted to dig lotus root because I was really busy. Pointing to this place is because it is the closest to the pavilion, and the lotus grows the most lush. Thinking that the lotus root below should look good before digging.

But the fourth master had to blame some kind of blessing, and Lin Yutong could only swallow all these words.

Sometimes, he felt that the fourth master was persistent, earnest and cute.

The lotus root was placed on the stone table in the pavilion, and the fourth master rolled up his sleeves and instructed Su Peisheng, "Bring some water." This is to be cleaned by himself. See if there are any bad scars on it.

Su Peisheng went immediately. Because this is to be given to the emperor first, probably this slave will fetch the water himself.

Although Lin Yutong thought this was really absurd, it was hard to pour cold water on the fourth master. After all, as a son, he is sincerely looking forward to the emperor's healthy heart.

She could feel that his approach was superstitious, but she couldn't ignore the blessings and expectations of a son for his father behind this approach.

So, she also rolled up her sleeves and instructed the people below, "Bring two new brushes." The joints of the lotus root were not easy to clean. I can't scratch it anymore, I can only use a fine and soft thing like a brush as a brush.

Fourth Master raised his head and smiled softly at Lin Yutong. As if very grateful for her company.

It took them half a day to clean up the lotus root. It was really a fluke, it was really smooth and clean, and there was no scratches at all.

"Take a large tray and take care of it carefully." The fourth master instructed Su Peisheng.

Then he took Lin Yutong back and said, "After changing clothes, I will go to see the emperor."

Lin Yutong hesitated, but in the end he didn't say anything.

The fourth master laughed, he held Lin Yutong's hand, "Master knows that you think it's stupid to place your hopes on these illusory things. In fact, Ye didn't believe this in his heart. But he just hoped that this is really a good omen, it's really a miracle. Woolen cloth?"

Lin Yutong called the fourth master with a sour nose, "We are all looking forward to it, and naturally there will be miracles."

The fourth master laughed and said, "Everything is determined by heaven. As long as you have a right mind, no matter what happens in the future, you will not be afraid."

There was a drizzle under the sky, and Lin Yutong watched the Fourth Master leave before turning around.

Hongxuan is still a milk doll who doesn't know anything. In addition to sleeping and eating, he also woke up because he farted himself, and then burst into tears.

I don't know how sad it feels.

In the evening, Lin Yutong stewed pork ribs soup with lotus root, and ate pork ribs soup noodles with a few children.

After a few children were sent away, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the fourth master was not seen coming back.

However, he said that the fourth master brought lotus roots into the palace, and the emperor was very happy when he saw it.

"That's you, how did you come up with the idea of ​​digging the lotus root in the pond?" The emperor looked at the lotus root, and it was indeed mellow, "Okay, it's a good sign. I asked the imperial kitchen to do it at night, and the princes will reward it. It’s good to have no illness or disaster.”

Saying that, just look at the fourth master, "The fourth child will stay and use it with me."

The fourth master smiled. Honghui next to him also said to Li Dequan, "Let's make a sweet and sour lotus root separately, and it needs to be cold."

Because it was not the season to eat lotus root, Honghui also didn't eat it for a long time. He especially wanted to eat sweet and sour lotus root.

The fourth master glared at him several times. The emperor didn't care much, and smiled at Hong Hui: "This is a greedy monkey. I don't know where I came up with these bizarre foods in a day."

"That is, Huang Ama is used to him. At home, he does not dare to do this." The fourth master helped the emperor to sit down and smiled.

The emperor pointed to his side and asked the fourth master to sit down, "You are more strict with yourself than others. You are exhausted."

Fourth Master did not dare to answer.

Hong Hui brought the tea, as if he didn't know what the emperor said to the fourth master, and said, "Last time I went back, I saw E-niang hatching duck eggs on the heated kang for Hong Zhao. I don't know if it came out?"

Seeing that the emperor was interested, the fourth master changed the topic accordingly. "Huang Ama, my son is just trying to tell you about this." He straightened his body and continued: "First, Hong Zhao watched the wild ducks coming to the garden and wanted to catch them and keep them. You know, these Wild animals are not easy to raise. Many of them don’t eat food that can be fed by humans. As a result, they died after being raised for a few days. That kid was crying and grabbing the ground. This is how they have been raised since they were young. That’s how the mother and daughter picked up the wild duck eggs from the grass nest by the lake. Then they picked the eggs. Originally, they found a nest of ducks to hatch the eggs. Who knew that Hongzhao, this arrogant child, had to be tucked into the quilt, and he couldn't hatch himself. He didn't listen to any reason, so he had to try. His mother couldn't do anything, and it was a hot day, so the kang in the warm pavilion was set on fire. He asked people to feel the temperature of the ducks in the brood and the temperature on the kang. In one month, seven ducks emerged from the ten eggs. The son didn't care at all, he just thought it was Fu Jin coaxing the children to play. After the duck came out, my son felt that this might still be popularized."

The emperor just listened at first. Hearing the fourth man with a serious face talk about the topic of duck eggs hatching, I was particularly happy. I originally thought that this was what the fourth child said to make him laugh, but he didn't expect it to be hatched.

Chickens and ducks can forage by themselves, and it is not too much of a burden to keep a few more chickens in common people’s homes. But after all, the number of chickens and ducks hatched from the nest is limited. If it can be promoted, the benefits are not small. Don't underestimate a few chickens and ducks. Raising a few more means that ordinary people have eggs to eat on weekdays and meat to eat during the New Year. This is a progress.

The emperor pondered for a while and said, "Tell me what you think."

"My son is thinking, ask people to try it on Zhuangzi first. Once the experiment is completed, it will be promoted step by step. If it is really beneficial, there is no need to force it. I am afraid that every family will be eager to learn it." The fourth master said this in a general way. , and then said: "The specific operation, my son has asked Fu Jin to write it out in detail. Anyone can use it."

In other words, this credit does not necessarily have to be their own. The emperor looked at the arrangement.

On this topic, the father and son were quite agreeable. It was not until very late that the fourth master came back despite the wind and rain.

In the end, the emperor did not say who would do this errand.

The fourth master didn't ask, he just wanted to transcribe what Lin Yutong wrote down tomorrow, and then submit it.

Unlike the fourth master who had this in his heart, in the palace of the princes, these elder brothers were fascinated by the bowl of lotus root soup that the emperor rewarded.

What is the emperor trying to imply to these sons?

Are they supposed to know brotherly love? I want to tell them that the brothers are like this lotus root, even if it is broken, the thread is still connected.

Is this to imply that even if their relationship is dead, they are still connected by blood?

Uh... I have to say, you all think too much.
