Chapter 76 Sister Game
While the two were talking, Xiao Xuanzi was saying outside the door, "I'm going to say good to Xu Cai's daughter."
Xu Cai didn't take the maid of honor, but went alone and waved her hand into the house with a smile. It turned out that she had just passed by the West Hall and heard that the room was very lively. She just didn't know how to spend such a leisurely afternoon, so she hurried back to the hall and put down the things at hand and rushed over again. I don't know why, this Xu Cainu is also like Yao Yulu at first sight. Her young mind is straightforward, but she has no reason to want to be closer to her.
Xuanzi hurriedly walked into the hall to inform, "Little Lord, Xu Cai's daughter is here."
Yao Yulu was also happy with this straightforward girl, but said with a smile, "Please let her in."
"Yes." Xiao Xuanzi replied and went out to bring in Xu Cai's daughter.
"My concubine has met Xu Cai's daughter." Although it is only one place higher, Yao Yulu still has to follow the rules.
Xu Cainu quickly helped her up and said, "That day, Ning'er recognized Yao's promise to be a sister. How could she still be so polite to Ning'er?" Ning'er is the name of Xu Cai's daughter, and her full name is Xu Yanning.
Yao Yulu smiled. It seems that this Xu Cainu is really a true temperament. There is no compliment in this word, but a girl's sincerity is placed in front of her and said, "I'm courteous, and I will call you Sister Ning in the future."
Xu Cainu smiled with satisfaction, and then noticed that there was still a delicate man sitting beside Yao Yulu. Then she asked curiously, "It turns out that my sister has a guest here. I don't know if Ning'er is disturbing you?"
"I just talked to you and forgot to let you know. This is Ji Changzai, a beautiful girl who also came with me before. This is Xu Cai's daughter who lives in the North Hall."
Xu Cai's daughter was slightly blessed and said, "Ning'er has seen Ji Chang here."
Ji Shuidong looked at the girl's cheerful appearance and also liked it very much. He said, "You just said don't be polite. How can you be so polite now? Come on, sit down quickly."
"What kind of tea do sisters drink? I have never seen it." Xu Cainu was suddenly curious about the tea with rose petals and fruit pieces floating in the exquisite teapot in front of her, and asked slightly.
"This is your sister Yao's self-created rose fruit tea. You come to taste it. Among them, it is made of black tea with rose petals and fruits. It's refreshing. Look, I use what my sister just taught to buy and sell." After Ji Shuidong finished speaking, he laughed at himself again.
Yao Yulu and Xu Cai's daughter looked at each other and smiled. Xu Cai's daughter picked up the teacup and blew the heat slightly, took a sip of it again, slowly circling the fragrance in her mouth, and immediately praised: "Sister Yao is such a coincidence that this tea is really delicious. It seems that I will often come here to find tea to drink in the future."
"Sister Ning's mouth is so sweet, and I'm also bored. In the future, I will learn to touch some snacks in the small kitchen here and make them for you two." Yao Yulu was praised for being a little embarrassed, so she gently covered her red lips with a handkerchief and said with a smile.
"By the way, there is nothing wrong with Yaoqin Palace today. It's boring for me to go back. I'm afraid I'll have to disturb my sister for a while." Ji Shuidong said, thinking that he had a headache when he wanted to wear a mask in Yaoqin Palace to deal with everyone, but begged for Yao Yulu to steal some leisure.
"What's the trouble? You and Sister Ning are here with me. It's too late for me to be happy! By the way, how about this? Last time Ning'er said that we could throw the pot to play, we were also boring. Let Xiao Xuanzi call Ning'er, Wu'er and Shuidong to come over. How about we throw the pot together?
"That's really good. Sister Yao has a lot of ideas. I know I'm not the right place." Xu Cainu said happily that she was only 13 years old this year, one year younger than Ji Shuidong. She has been bored for a long time in the palace. Usually, she can only sit in the hall by herself. It is extremely happy for her to play the pot today.
"Sister, I often hear people talk about throwing pots, but I don't know how to play this."
"When Xiao Xuanzi calls them over, I will tell you so that no one will play this throwing pot again. I will talk about it again." Yao Yulu joked.
"Why did my sister make fun of me again? Don't you want me to make a fool of Yu'er and Wan'er!" Ji Shuidong said anly. Although she said so, her smile knew that she was just agreeing to Yao Yulu.
"Xiao Xuanzi, go and call them." Yao Yulu said.
Xiao Xuanzi was also very happy to see the little masters doing games. He was not very old. The days in the palace every day were so boring that he could add some fun even if he was watching them. He hurriedly promised to go to the small kitchen to find the four people.
Ning'er walked in front of the hall happily and asked happily, "I heard Xiao Xuanzi say that the little master plays with the throwing pot, but I don't know... I don't know if I can take slaves with me?"
Yao Yulu said with a smile, "If I don't take you, how can I let Xiao Xuanzi find you? The three of us can play secretly."
Ninger spit out her tongue and listened to Yao Yulu say, "This jutting pot is marked by the mouth of the pot. Put the pot at a certain distance to determine how many wins or loses. It was supposed to be punished. At this time, it is not appropriate for us to drink too much in the hall. Let's give up, but what should the losers do?"
"Everything is at my sister's instructions." Xu Cai said with a smile.
"There is not a poem that 'spent friends sit idle and gamble on cherries, but throw a pot of jade wrists'. Although there are no cherries here, it's better to gamble on some food. It happens that we don't lack greedy girls here!" Yao Yulu said with a smile, as if she was very confident in winning or losing.
"There are neither cherries nor lychees. I don't know how my sister wants to follow suit?" Ji Shuidong asked.
"Why don't we have dinner here today? Those who lose can go to the kitchen to cook for us." Yao Yulu said confidently.
"How can my sister be so confident that she will be surrounded by the oil fumes in this small kitchen for a while." Ji Shuidong couldn't help joking when he saw Yao Yulu's appearance.
"I'm a master of throwing pots, but I won't underestimate you two." Yao Yulu is very provocative.
"Although it's my first time to play throwing pots, I'm not willing to go down. I'd better wait and see." Ji Shuidong said with a smile.
In a while, Wuer brought the blue and white porcelain pot and brought the remuneration used for throwing the pot.
"Both sister have someone to help, but I came alone, but it's unfair." Xu Cai's daughter said annoy.
"I will give you Ning'er and Wu'er, and Xiao Xuanzi and I will be together." Yao Yulu said and smiled at Lv Pangxiao, for fear that Lv Pang Xiao would refuse to play games with these children.
Lv Panxiao would understand his intention and said, "Don't worry, I also played this game in the early years."
In this way, everyone was divided into three groups, and they all invested in the mouth of the pot one after another. In a while, the victory and defeat could be seen. Ji Shuidong was the most clumsy and the worst defeat. However, Yao Yulu and Xu Cai's daughter were on the same road, but in the end, they were defeated by Xu Cai's daughter three times in a row.
"I didn't expect Sister Ning to be so good at throwing pots. I'm really willing to bow down." Yao Yulu sighed in frustration.
"Yes, Xu Xiaozhu has mastered the skill of throwing pot very well, and the maidservant is also ashamed of himself." Lv Pangxiao looked at everyone playing so happily and didn't feel that he had more words.
"To be honest, I'm really good at it, but I'm not modest." Xu Cai's daughter sneered and said, and she could see that she was very happy.
"But winter, our dinner will be handed over to you today." Yao Yulu looked at Ji Shuidong and said.
Ji Shuidong also refused, saying, "Shuidong's skills are not as good as others. Naturally, I'm going to cook dinner for you."
Yao Yulu covered her mouth and smiled. Looking at Ji Shuidong's awe-inspiring appearance, she really had to laugh. She saw that the people in the hall were also having fun, so she said, "Today, everyone is so interested. It's better to close them down. Let's have fun together and sit in the yard for dinner."
After listening to Yao Yulu's words, all the slaves cast grateful glances at her, but Lv Panxiao asked slightly worriedly, "Little Lord, I'm afraid it's not good. If you are seen by others..."
Yao Yulu comforted her with a smile and said, "It doesn't matter. At this time, no one will come to our lonely place, just be relieved."
Lv Panxiao listened to what she said and didn't persuade her much. He just felt that he had indeed chosen the wrong person to follow. Even if he didn't see her favor one day, it would not be wrong to serve such a person for the rest of his life.
"My sister is making things difficult for me. I don't know when Yu'er and Wan'er will cook for so many people's meals." Ji Shuidong complained anly.
"Good sister, how can I really let you cook so many meals alone? We help together. I'm just afraid that this small kitchen can't stand." Yao Yulu gently patted Ji Shuidong on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile.
"Sister said so, only in winter can she be relieved."
Everyone came to the small kitchen, but the sound of pots and pans converged into a wonderful note and floated outside the garden. Such a scene of master-servant happiness may also be a groundbreaking move in this palace.
