Chapter 67

The boy took his hand back again, and said with a smile: "What are you doing just now?" The flour on their hands hadn't had time to wash off.

If it is placed on someone else, the third prince might be displeased with that person's faux pas, but now, he is happy because of his natural familiarity.

"I'm making sweet-scented osmanthus cake with Xiao Yu'er. You will eat some later, it's best when it comes out of the pot."

The corners of the third prince's mouth curled up, and he immediately said with interest: "Ah, I was making sweet-scented osmanthus cake. I just tasted it and haven't seen how it is made."

Little friend Nie Zheyu squinted at this person. Why is this person so idle? Does he think he is five years old? Still waiting around the stove to eat?

Qiu Yunwei smiled and said, "Then go to the kitchen together."

While walking on the road, the third prince's mouth did not stop, "Is it made of sweet-scented osmanthus in the mansion? I feel it smells good when I enter the mansion."

"Yes, Yuer and I picked the sweet-scented osmanthus yesterday. There was nothing wrong this morning, so we cooked something for ourselves."

The third prince smiled: "It seems that I came here very coincidentally, and I didn't miss the good fortune."

These words made Xiao Yu'er's face fall again a little bit. Just after one walked away, another one came out to grab the food. It was a coincidence.

But when Xiao Yu'er raised his head, he became enthusiastic, "Wait for you to taste it, the sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by my mother is delicious, the best, Yu'er likes it."

His Royal Highness nodded: "I look forward to it."

Qiu Yunwei nodded on the child's forehead and said to the third prince: "It must be inferior to the imperial chef in the palace. Don't expect too much, Bai Yan, for fear that you will be disappointed later."

The third prince shook his head: "No."

The three Highnesses have never been in the kitchen, nor have they consciously helped. Nie Zheyu, a child, is different, like a small tail, spinning around Qiu Yunwei, helping Qiu Yunwei scoop glutinous rice flour, and helping Qiu Yunwei pour it down. water.

He also glanced at the third prince of the idle person next to him, and the third prince understood the meaning of the little dwarf from this eye.

But looking at this kitchen, the three princes, who had never been in contact with these three princes, didn't know where to start, so they asked, "What can I do?"

Qiu Yunwei said, "No. I can do it by myself, this will be fine soon." Qiu Yunwei said, turning around and brought out a plate of fried fish, and handed it to the third prince: "You take Yu'er out to play. ."

The third prince, who was stuffed with a plate of snacks, didn't react yet. Little friend Nie Zheyu had already started to say: "Mother, why did you fry fish for Ari again? Isn't he losing weight?"

Ari? The image of a fat cat popped out of the head of the three princes. What did the cat eat?

Qiu Yunwei hissed, "What are you talking about? These are not Ari's, we ate them by ourselves, but you, don't greet them anymore." Qiu Yunwei pushed the children out as she said.

Yes, the two people who were kicked out of the kitchen looked at each other. They didn't want to talk at all. Let's pick up the fried fish and grind their teeth to play.

In the kitchen, Qiu Yunwei was putting the steaming dish into the pot, and when she saw the burning lady who was smiling, she asked, "What is the lady Song laughing at?"

This fire-burning lady is a hard-working man. More than ten years ago, there was a drought and then a locust plague in her home. She couldn't survive, and her family fled to Beijing. On the way, the women and children were cold and hungry. I was beaten severely by someone with bad hands and feet. No matter how hard I was beaten, I didn't want to put down the buns in my arms. When I brought them back to their mothers, they were still hot, and I couldn't bear to eat them.

At the time, I didn't know that, in fact, he was beaten and injured his internal organs, and the man died the next day. There was a woman and two children left, and the man's corpse naturally did not want to return to its roots. After the hastily buried, Aunt Song didn't have time to grieve. She gritted her teeth and continued to take the two children to Beijing.

It is said that there is money in the capital, even begging for food can make people eat, getting closer and closer to the capital, but Song Auntie's youngest son still failed to make it to the capital, Feng Han died without money and medicine.

At that time, Aunt Song was stunned, if it weren't for the fact that she still had to rely on her eldest son who was also ill, she would not be able to hold on, and then she would still be seen by the old man who returned to Beijing. Looking at the people, it was really pitiful, so he hired a doctor for help and saved money. Finally, two of the talents in this family survived.

Later, it was the nuns who sold themselves into the Hou Mansion as servants.

Now she and her son are living well. There is no secret in the Hou Mansion, and the master's family is also kind. There is still money to get every month, but no matter how good the life is, think of the dead men and children, the days are also It's bitter, Song Auntie rarely laughed.

At this time, she sent firewood to the kitchen stove, and the light of the fire was reflected on her face. This sad face with many wrinkles smiled as warm as the fire.

"When I was in my hometown, our Chunsheng and Xiasheng were the same, especially during the New Year's croquettes and fried sugar cakes. They both liked to go around in the kitchen waiting to eat. I think they get in the way, always Squeeze over something to eat, and quickly coax the two boys away."

Aunt Song said this with a smile on her face and a smile in her voice, but she was very sad to hear. Qiu Yunwei had heard about Song Auntie, this kind of thing could not be comforted by others, and it was a pain that others could not touch.

It makes people feel heavy. In modern society, there will be various natural disasters, but the people here are much more vulnerable. They can't keep up with the crops in one season, and they can't survive.

Qiu Yunwei didn't talk about these topics, but smiled and pretended to look at the door, defending herself: "I was wronged, I didn't think those two got in the way."

Xiao Yuer nodded, yes, he is a caring little helper, his mother likes him to help.

The third prince was chewing on a piece of fried fish, what the woman said in his mind, he could think of the scene, the peasant woman was busy in the kitchen making good food, and the greedy boy waited eagerly for the delicious food The peasant woman couldn't turn away the pot, so she picked up the food with her, and quickly sent the greedy boy out of the kitchen.

Such a chaotic and noisy scene of fireworks, a wealthy person like the Third Prince must have never seen or heard of it, but following the woman's few words, it was easily sketched in her mind.

But where does it touch them?

The third prince also snorted coldly. Just like the wife said, she didn't dislike them being in the way. It was obvious that the kitchen was so big.

However, the third prince looked down at the plate of fried fish in his hand, but was he also coaxed out by Mrs. Nie's stuffing a plate to eat?

The corner of her mouth chewing on the fried fish quietly raised. Although the scene that the woman said was messy and noisy, it made people feel that it was actually pretty good.

The newly made sweet-scented osmanthus cake is delicious, but there are only a few pieces of snack for this one big one, but it was cruelly taken away by Qiu Yunwei.

"If you eat any more, you can't eat."

The third prince looked regretful, and then he said: "Can I take some away?"

Little friend Nie Zheyu's eyes widened! This person's cheekiness is always refreshing!

Now he can directly ask people!

But Qiu Yunwei naturally complied with what the third prince said, bring it, bring it, and it will be installed on the third prince, and she will not forget it.

So this time the three princes are eating and taking for another day.

In the afternoon, Nie Changfeng, who had returned to the mansion, did not hit the third prince, but he soon learned about the third prince's arrival in the mansion.

When the third prince came over, he still came here in plain clothes, hiding his identity from others, but he couldn't hide from the master of the Hou Mansion, Nie Changfeng.

"The third prince came to the mansion?"

"Yeah." Qiu Yunwei asked Nie Changfeng, "Will there be trouble?"

Nie Changfeng said: "He helped us. I was going to talk to him and find him for tea in a few days." Seeing Qiu Yunwei worrying on her face, she smiled slightly at her: "Nothing, don't worry."

Qiu Yunwei wanted to speak but stopped.

Nie Changfeng handed the peeled orange to Qiu Yunwei: "My younger brothers and sisters have a good impression of these three princes?"

"Yeah." Qiu Yunwei said: "I know he is the prince, that is, I don't know how to say, I promised him to let him come to the mansion to play, will it be bad?"

Nie Changfeng said: "Don't think too much about it. I think the three princes are also well-measured. He is more worried about trouble than we are."

It's just that Qiu Yunwei undoubtedly admitted that she did have a good impression of the three princes. Nie Changfeng knew the temperament of her younger brothers and sisters. She knew that she was not good at or interested in political affairs and power entanglements. She was a sober and cautious person. , And can always avoid those possible troubles.

Knowing one's strengths and weaknesses is much wiser than the reckless and self-wise people who have never been so many.

But such a person would have avoided people with the status of a prince, but now he is not. Nie Changfeng doesn't need to know more, he already understands a lot.

Nie Changfeng didn't want to see Qiu Yunwei embarrassed and had the ability to deal with it, but he became angry with the other person.

The three princes were grateful to Qiu Yunwei and the others for their help, and he also recognized this kindness, but this person approached Qiu Yunwei and Yu'er with his mind, but he disgusted him.

It's time to talk to the third prince.

On another day, Emperor Yanqing only approved the memorial to Qiu Yunwei.

When he saw the signature, Emperor Yanqing was surprised and looked down with great interest, wondering what the first memorial on Mrs. Nie was about.

But soon, Emperor Yanqing's complexion changed, his expression of interest turned into seriousness, he withdrew the teacup in his hand, and then was quietly picked up by a father-in-law, and Emperor Yanqing's eyes It has been stuck tightly on the fold and cannot be removed.

The more I read, the more excited I was. After I finished reading, I got up from my chairs excitedly and paced back and forth in the hall.

The father-in-law beside the emperor saw the excitement on his majesty's face, but couldn't think of what could happen to make the emperor so happy?

The emperor walked back and forth several times, the joy on his face was not completely suppressed, and he watched the memorial back and forth several times.

Finally put down the memorial and said justice to the neighbors: "Go Chuan Xun Wenzhuo and Xia Youzhong into the palace."

"Let's let people go to Nie's Mansion again." The emperor said with excitement like this, and finally added another sentence: "Remember to make the person who spread the word behave better. Don't think I don't know if you are outside again. Tea money is awesome again."

The father-in-law hurriedly bowed his head and said, "The slave dare not."

They are also picking people for their prestige. They don't dare to be in front of the emperor celebrities, but the emperor said so today, they are also sure, this emperor celebrities team added another one today, or the most popular one. kind.

Emperor Yanqing didn't care what the father-in-law said, and waved his hand indifferently to let him do what he was supposed to do.

Emperor Yanqing is in a very, very good mood now, with prosperous national power and high prestige.

No matter how much grace was given to Madam Nie, he was not stingy.
