It tastes strange and strange to eat beyond your imagination.
If Xia Yunji is lucky enough to make food very successful, then Xia Yunji will be complacent and cook it many times in a row until everyone is tired of it...
I will not give up!
Today, Xia Yunji made buns.
It was made according to the thin skin, large filling and gravy-filled soup buns taught by Xia Mingyue. The buns made are quite good and taste good. The only thing that is bad is that the amount is too large.
Not only are breakfast buns, lunch buns, dinner buns, but even in your spare time, you have to satisfy your lonely snacks. All the midnight snacks you want to eat when your belly is empty at night are all buns.
And such days lasted for more than a day.
In the early morning of this day, Xia Mingyue and Lu Qiyan got up and washed up and sat at the dining table. When they saw the buns piled up like hills in the plate, the greedy worm that was already ready to move in the stomach disappeared in an instant and disappeared without any trace.
Even Wu Jin saw the large number of buns piled in the clay pot basin, he couldn't help but turn his head elsewhere, and he didn't even want to take a look.
When it comes to the name of a bun that doesn’t even want to pay attention to?
But Xia Yunji was still very excited. While urging everyone to hurry up and eat the buns he made, he continued to make buns, while taking time to deliver some buns to the Fan family.
As a result, the Fan family's dining table almost appeared on the same situation as in Xia Mingyue's home.
Every meal, you will never leave the buns!
These buns are very suitable for Fan Jinglan's appetite. She enjoys eating them very much, but it makes the rest of the Fan family suffer. Looking at these buns all day long, it almost tastes like chewing wax.
Even Fan Hongyu felt that wasting food was the most shameful thing. No matter how hard it was to eat, he could eat boring food, when faced with such frequent and large-scale buns, he had no appetite and just gritted his teeth and ate it with Fan Jinglan.
While eating, he kept nodding, "Not bad."
Not bad?
Mrs. Fan seemed to see a life-saving straw, so she hurriedly put the buns in front of her into Fan Hongyu's bowl. "Since Yu'er likes to eat, then eat them all."
Fan Hongyu, "..."
But he was right, not talking about buns, but about Xia Yunji!
A big man is able to study cooking skills every day and meet Fan Jinglan's preferences, and is tireless. It can be said that Xia Yunji is really very attentive to Fan Jinglan.
If my younger sister will get married sooner or later, then Fan Hongyu thinks that he should be the most at ease to marry Xia Yunji.
But, this elder brother could never show his attitude of approving him to avoid being complacent and being complacent. Fan Hongyu did not explain his thoughts on his face.
Silently, he just kept stuffing the bun into his mouth.
The peace talks with Jin Weiguo have officially begun.
Led by the Minister of War and the Minister of Rites, the veterans and important officials in the court participated, and together with Lu Qiyan and Xia Yunji, they began negotiations and negotiations with the Jin Wei State mission headed by Li Juncheng.
In this peace talks, Jin Weiguo was at a disadvantage, so the Great Zhou Kingdom was not too polite, and the conditions offered were very harsh.
The cities and land of Jin Wei Kingdom occupied by the Western Army were all owned by the Great Zhou Kingdom. Jin Wei Kingdom paid tribute to cattle, sheep and horses every year as tribute and tribute to the Great Zhou Kingdom, but the Great Zhou Kingdom did not interfere in the internal affairs of Jin Wei.
Jin Weiguo, as a vassal state, did not suffer any losses. Every year, the Great Zhou Dynasty rewarded grain, cloth and other items that match the values of cattle, sheep and horses to help Jin Weiguo solve the problems of easy shortage of food and cloth.
In addition, the two countries resume trade and friendly exchanges.
Jin Weiguo could accept most of the conditions issued by the Great Zhou Kingdom, but as a vassal state, Li Juncheng did not dare to make decisions and only sent a letter back to Jin Weiguo to report the status and progress of the peace talks at this time.
And for Jin Weiguo at this time, accepting it in his heart was accepting it, but he also argued on the surface, intending to return the city and land that had been lost in Jin Weiguo from the Great Zhou Kingdom on the condition of tribute to cattle, sheep and horses.
The Great Zhou Kingdom naturally refused to accept this, and even made a statement in the peace talks that if he wanted to return to the territory, he would send troops to take it.
The ministers in the Jin Weiguo peace talks mission were naturally furious and fought against the ministers of the Great Zhou Kingdom and scolded them endlessly.
The peace talks were in a quarrel phase and had to be suspended for several days for both parties to think and plan carefully.
Because Lu Qiyan and Xia Yunji were familiar with Li Juncheng, they had to take on the heavy responsibility of dealing with each other in the past few days. They stayed in the inn every day, went out early and returned late, and were quite busy.
Xia Mingyue has not been idle these days.
First, we must make some different foods to comfort the stomach and black gold that were not stopping eating buns a few days ago.
Boiled meat slices and butter cakes, chopped pepper, fish head, trousers and noodles, large boiled dried pork ribs...
A few foods that are not of the same cuisine are completely different when they are mixed together, they have a unique flavor.
After taking this for two days, Xia Mingyue felt that her stomach was slowly alive.
The second thing is to start growing cotton seeds according to the plan before the New Year.
It was just February, and the spring was cold and the outdoor temperature was not suitable. Xia Mingyue specially cleaned up a room and made it into a small greenhouse. She laid a thick layer of soil on the ground and sprayed water so that the soil absorbed sufficient moisture, but it could not be too humid.
Stuff these slightly damp soil into a circular mold and make a cylindrical shape with a few grooves on the top. Then put the cotton seeds in groups of three or four into these cylindrical grooves, then lay a layer of floating soil on it, and spray water again.
No need to coat, just make sure the temperature and humidity in the greenhouse are suitable, and the rest is to wait quietly.
After cleaning up these things, Xia Mingyue saw that there was still a lot of free time in the greenhouse, so she simply searched for some vegetable seeds and planted some vegetables in it.
Potatoes, cucumbers, tomatoes, beans...
Xia Mingyue was busy. When Lu Qiyan came back, he helped him with his hands and smiled, "There is an open space in the backyard. When spring begins, I will turn over the floor for you and plant some vegetables together."
"Okay." Xia Mingyue agreed and nodded vigorously, but after a moment, she shook her head, "No."
"What's wrong?" Lu Qiyan was surprised.
"We may not be able to wait until summer to leave Beijing. We are afraid that when the vegetables are ready and grown, we can't eat them, which is a pity..."
Xia Mingyue's face was full of regret and heartache when she thought that such a thing might happen.
She is not a saint. Her little heart will be unable to bear the fact that she is full of hard work but can't taste any results in the end.
"Then..." Lu Qiyan smiled, "When I return to Jinqiu County, I will plant vegetables!"
"Okay." This time Xia Mingyue agreed more straightforwardly, with a bright smile on her face.
"But the yard in our Jinqiu County seems to be a little small." Lu Qiyan said, "Why not change to one that is as big as here?"
Or a bigger one?
He is now the Marquis of Dingyuan, and Xia Mingyue is the lord of Anle Township. Whether it is the money or power of the two of them, it is very easy to buy a large-scale house. If there is no suitable area in Jinqiu County, you can also buy a piece of land and cover it. "It sounds good." Xia Mingyue hesitated and smiled, "It's just that I still like the previous house."
Although the house looks relatively dilapidated on the outside, it has been completely repaired. Although it is a sparrow, it is a small and complete body, and it is a rough appearance. It is a fine decoration inside, making it very comfortable to live in.
In addition, that house was the house she and Lu Qiyan when they first married, carrying many memories. She got along very well with her neighbors, just like her family.
If you re-built a house, it will be even more troublesome. "Yes." Lu Qiyan nodded, "I like that place too."
Warm, harmony, and full of humanity, it is also where he and Xia Mingyue began.
"Then I'll still live there."
Lu Qiyan and Xia Mingyue were busy. When washing their hands, Lu Qiyan hugged Xia Mingyue in his arms. "The place is smaller. I'm afraid that there will be more and more people in my family and I won't be able to live there."
"No." Xia Mingyue said of her plan, "Miss Fan has her own yard. Eiyun is so kind that she is afraid that she will run there three times a day and will not be involved in the family at all. Even if the two of them want to come back to live, they can just set up two east wings in the east gable in the yard, which is definitely enough to live."
"Then..." Lu Qiyan placed his chin in Xia Mingyue's shoulder, "What if there is a child?"
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
child?
Xia Mingyue was stunned.
Yes, kid.
She and Lu Qiyan have been married for so long and have been together for some time, and there seems to be no movement in her belly.
If there are children...
Xia Mingyue's mind saw the baby carved with jade, grinning and smiling, stretching out her fleshy little hand to ask for a hug at her.
Xia Mingyue smiled unconsciously, and even joked, "If you really have a child, let the child sleep on your kang."
The two kangs in the house have been preserved, but now there are some things neatly stacked, and Xia Mingyue is used as storage racks.
Seeing that Xia Mingyue's smile almost overflowed after hearing the topic of children, Lu Qiyan knew that she also liked children and smiled, "But we don't have children yet..."
"Doesn't you work hard enough for your husband?"
"Where is there..." Xia Mingyue's words were blocked by Lu Qiyan.
After her body lightened, Xia Mingyue felt that she had lost her center of gravity and had to stretch her hand around Lu Qiyan's neck.
Like a pendant, Xia Mingyue was taken back to the room.
When night fell, the lights were on, and in the house with the door closed, the lit candles swayed like a lighthouse lit on the sea, guiding the ships to sail forward.
It was not until the second midnight that the candlelight went out, and the whistling wind stopped abruptly at this time, and no branches could be blown away.
The person in his arms had already closed his eyes tightly with fatigue. Lu Qiyan kissed her forehead again and again, and then hugged her tightly.
Looking up at the darkness outside the window and feeling the tranquility around him, Lu Qiyan's mouth then slightly raised.
After the peace talks are over, everything is settled, what he does is to lead the army to guard the border, and every day it is just to lead the troops to practice.
At that time, he would have much more free time than before, and he would have enough time to accompany Xia Mingyue.
Accompany her to grow vegetables, cook with her, and manage her business...
Everything revolves around her alone.
Lu Qiyan couldn't help but smile and kiss Xia Mingyue again, then closed his eyes with satisfaction.
The next day, the morning light was dimming.
Chongyang Palace is like the same as before.
Xiao Luoan's injuries have been greatly improved. Now he follows the emperor to court every day to learn various government affairs.
Today, as before, people have reported matters one after another.
The censor advised the court officials to frequently appear in the fireworks and not ask about their families and children, which caused his wife to complain, which had extremely poor impact and severe punishment.
The Ministry of Works applies for separate coins to facilitate construction of fortifications and avoid inconvenience and cost increase in back-and-forth transportation when using silver coins.
The Ministry of Rites reported the situation of Li Juncheng and others in the inn yesterday, and requested the emperor to allow the inn to take a cold attitude towards the Jin Wei Kingdom peace talks led by Li Juncheng during this period, so as to represent the Great Zhou Dynasty that peace talks were dispensable and to put pressure on Jin Wei Kingdom.
The Ministry of Justice tried the case of Caozhou's corruption and abuse of power and neglecting human life, and asked the emperor to convict the emperor...
The doctor of the Ministry of Personnel Bu Yongrui suddenly stood up, "Report to the emperor, I have important matters to report."
The affairs of the Ministry of Personnel are usually reported by the Minister of Personnel. At this time, the doctor of the Ministry of Personnel actually stood up. What he said is usually inconsistent with the Minister of Personnel.
In order to open up a wide range of opinions, avoiding the power of others and blocking the emperor's news, the emperor allowed the subordinates to speak out for advice.
Let the emperor straighten his back and "respond to the report."
"Report to the emperor, Dingyuan Marquis Lu Qiyan and his wife, the Lord of Anle Township, had close contact with the princes of the previous dynasty, and deliberately hid his identity. Dingyuan Marquis and the Lord of Anle Township are ill-intentioned and are disloyal to the ministers. I hope the emperor will clearly observe!"
As soon as Bu Yongrui said this, the ministers in Chongyang Palace were in an uproar.
The prince of the previous dynasty?
When the Great Zhou Kingdom was established, the emperor did not establish a capital. It was not until the capital of the previous dynasty was completely occupied, that the previous dynasty was completely destroyed.
The previous dynasty emperors were foolish and cruel, which led to the people's misfortune and the separatist situation of princes. When the previous dynasty emperors committed suicide by committing suicide by the country, they were only twenty-five or twenty-six years old.
According to the archives of the previous dynasty, the emperors of the previous dynasty had five sons and six daughters, and they were all killed before the emperor committed suicide.
However, it is rumored that when the emperor led his men to break through the palace, the people below found only four sons of the previous emperor, and the whereabouts of the youngest prince were unknown.
But afterwards, the emperor spoke, saying that this was a rumor, and he did not find that a prince of the previous dynasty survived, and none of the previous dynasty emperors, concubines, princesses, etc. were spared and all died.
Now, some people have mentioned the matter of the prince of the previous dynasty again, and they also said that he had close contacts with Lu Qiyan and Xia Mingyue...
This matter is a bit interesting. (This chapter ends)
