Chapter 59 Strange Talk [Big Collection]
The peach blossoms have withered, and the young leaves have become green. There is no longer a retro and strange medicinal smell in Qipingyuan. Qin Shubao's plain cloth shoes, and the practice is not Taijiquan. Li Yu watched it together with the paper kite.
Li Yu didn't understand, but he came to accompany him every day this week. He felt that Qin Shubao was not practicing martial arts, but dancing, and the paper kite was specially arranged by Qin Shubao.
He pulled the towel from the paper kite's hand, wiped the sweat off his forehead, and asked Fatty Li, "Is there any interesting news in Bianliang City today?"
Fat Li spit out the melon seed shell and said indignantly, "There is no interesting news. It's just that those long-tongued women are still talking about you. I want to beat them when I hear it."
Qin Shubao smiled and was not angry at all. He moved his eyes to the paper kite, but he didn't pay much attention to it. Qin Shubao had no choice but to get up and push and said, "Go and bring me a glass of water."
The paper kite gave Qin Shubao a white look, gently patted the place touched by Qin Shubao, and left.
Li Yu smiled maliciously at Qin Shubao, with an obscene smile on his face and said, "Shubao, you are too incompetent! Didn't this girl finish it?"
Qin Shubao scolded angrily: "Get out!", too lazy to pay attention to this fat man.
Li Yu, who was scolded without any shame, sighed and said, "That is, Shubao, you spoil people. If my maidservant had been like this, I would have killed her long ago. How can it be her turn to look at?"
Qin Shubao laughed. What Li Yu said is indeed true. Some of the maids of rich families are just obedient. How can they be arrogant? What's more, many of the maidservant who enter the house are bought back. Just like an object, the owner has the power to kill. Even if they are killed, no one will mind their own business.
And what he did is really weird and ridiculous.
When the two chatted until noon, Li Yu got up and prepared to leave, but Qin Shubao kept him and asked him to eat in Qipingyuan. Li Yu was not polite and his big buttocks were too lazy to move.
Eight dishes and two soups, meat and vegetables, balanced nutrition, strong color and flavor, appeting, a whole table.
Li Yu looked at the dishes and pointed to the table in surprise and asked, "Shubao, is your specification too high?"
The children of sorghum eat exquisite food and have a wide variety of categories, which is very common. There are also many dung beggars who eat more than a dozen dishes in a meal, but with Li Yu's understanding of Qin Shubao, this scene in front of him is simply a fantasy.
"Six people eat and entertain guests. Isn't this a small dish?" Qin Shubao doesn't think there is anything. If he cuts down a few more dishes, it will be a little shabby.
"six people? Shubao, have you invited others?
"None! You, me, plus Mo Xiang and four others, aren't there six people?" Qin Shubao said it naturally, but he did not find Li Yu's frightened face.
Li Yu found that Qin Shubao's face had not changed at all, so he had to accept the result in his heart. He held Qin Shubao's hand tightly and said, "Brother, you are the first person in Daliang and the first person in the ages!"
"Do you have it?" Qin Shubao asked, and Li Yu nodded with certainty.
Since ancient times, women have not been allowed to eat at the same table. Even high-ranking women have to split tables with others and eat alone. The concubines didn't even have the opportunity to attend, let alone eat at the same table as several maidservants without any reputation.
"Do you eat or not?"
Li Yu suddenly was stunned and found that he had never thought about this problem in his heart, but after a moment, he laughed, touched his bulging stomach with his hand and said, "It's hungry. Can I not eat it?"
Mo Xiang was a little embarrassed, but after hearing what Li Yu said, her face immediately smiled and was happy.
Qin Shubao and Li Yu sat down, and Duan Yan quickly grabbed a position. After sitting down, he did not forget to give Qin Shubao a charming eye. Mo Xiang could not reprimand him. After sitting down, he nodded to Li Yu.
The paper kite refused to sit down, and Su Hao did not dare to sit down. Qin Shubao saw the little Lori's lovely expression and waved to her. He looked at the paper kite and found that the paper kite did not stop it, so he walked over.
Qin Shubao didn't say anything. He directly pressed her to the position next to him, turned his head and said with a smile, "If you don't sit down, just add tea and water for us."
Zhiyuan turned her face and looked at him, but sat down.
"Today, our eldest son Li came to Qi Pingyuan. There is no wine to entertain him. Just take tea to express his heart. Mr. Li won't mind."
There is no nutrition and no level of politeness. It sounds sleepy, but a hot current surged out of Li Yu's heart, and it's hard to be speechless.
Brother!
can be described as any word!
After the short and unlevel polite, the dinner begins.
Mo Xiang picked up a piece of fish and carefully removed the fish bone. When there was no dish in Qin Shubao's bowl, he picked up the fish meat and put it in Qin Shubao's bowl, and then smiled lightly.
Qin Shubao enjoys taking care of him, but he always likes to touch his head, which often makes his eyes feel that he has some kind of weirdness.
On the table, there were also Duan inkstone and paper kites. A bowl was asked to be spoiled by the master. After eating all the dishes frequently, he asked Qin Shubao to help her pick them up. Qin Shubao also cooperated, like a favorite concubine with 3,000 favors.
The opposite of Duan Yan is the paper kite, which coldly makes Li Yu goosebumps. He doesn't say a word and eats carefully. He doesn't have eye contact with anyone. Even if he picks vegetables, he has a straight face.
What's interesting is that as long as Qin Shubao has picked up three dishes, she will not touch them, and Li Yu also slowly found that Qin Shubao also deliberately made it difficult, one by one, so that paper kite can eat fewer and fewer dishes.
Basically, in the end, the paper kite could only eat white rice, but Qin Shubao smiled at the corners of his mouth and was proud.
The meal was not stormy and magnificent, but it made Li Yu feel very interesting, which made him come up with this idea.
In order to let Qin Shubao rest, Li Yu did not stay too much after dinner, so he had to leave, but he gave Qin Shubao a small bag of things before leaving.
The papy paper bag is sealed with a piece of red paper with simple decoration, which aroused Qin Shubao's curiosity.
"What is it? So mysterious?"
"You will know when you open it. It's absolutely good." What was mysterious became more and more mysterious when Li Yu said so.
Qin Shubao, who was scratched by Li Yu's strong curiosity, couldn't wait to open the red seal and didn't see it, but smelled its fragrance.
The faint fragrance of grains awakens the nose and the mind, with a little dry deposition, which makes people feel natural.
Open the paper, the light rouge color is wrapped in small particles, and the grains are slender and full. Qin Shubao reached into the paper bag and gently grabbed it, and asked confusedly, "What is this?" Is it rice?"
"This is rouge rice! I used to pay tribute to the emperor, but now it is difficult to find, and there is no tribute. This rouge rice grain is elliptical, dark red inside and outside, with purple-red lines, which is very similar to rouge, and is called 'couge rice' by scribes. After cooking, it will be fragrant and taste excellent. It can be said that "a family cooks rice, and the neighbors are fragrant." And the color is still fragrant after returning to the pot three times. Because the rice grains stretch once each time they are returned to the pot, it is called "three stretches" rice. I don't dare to enjoy this fat thing alone, so I specially brought some to Shubao. It's not much. Let's taste it first.
Qin Shubao originally thought that things were precious and delicious, and he wanted to excuse them back, but when he heard the last sentence, his eyes lit up and stared at Li Yu and asked, "Is there any other reserves?"
Li Yu smiled and showed a trace of pride on his face and said, "I bought a few mu of good land and asked people to plant this rouge rice. When we harvest next year, we should also enjoy the life in the palace."
An idea flashed in Qin Shubao's mind and grabbed Li Yu's hand and said, "Fat, I'll give you a thousand taels of silver. You buy more fields, and then find someone to grow this rouge rice well. This silver money is my shareholding."
Li Yu was a little stunned. What's going on in this book? Why did you suddenly care about the things in the farmland? Also invested...
Li Yu grabbed a trace of enlightenment and looked at Qin Shubao with light in his eyes. Qin Shubao nodded, and Li Yu immediately answered, "Okay."
Since rouge rice was a tribute many years ago, it will be cultivated and flowed into the rice market. The price will definitely be high. Who doesn't want to do this kind of business in exchange for high-valued money with low manpower?
Li Yu understands it, and Qin Shubao knows it better!
The dung bets make a living, and the road is paved. Why worry about money?
