When the heat rises to its peak, the red pomegranates have hung all over the branches, and the fruits are hanging with stars, and the light is like a glass foundation, like the reflection of green water.
Yuzhu used to love pomegranates, and when he saw that the pomegranates in his home were ripe, he became interested in tossing and planned to make red pomegranate drinks.
First sent the little maid to pick up twenty ripe pomegranates in the yard that were so red that they cracked, and the washed pomegranates were red and bright, and the cracks revealed the crystalline jewel-like seeds, which made people full of relish.
"Miss, let the slave and maid strip it."
Hua Zhen rolled up his sleeves to do it, although the pomegranate is delicious, but it is troublesome to eat, the masters generally eat pomegranates are peeled by the maid and put in a bowl, scooped and eaten with a silver spoon.
"No, you can help me."
This kind of thing is still fun to do it yourself, Yuzhu's hands keep moving, pour clean water into the basin, and then take the cut pomegranate and put it into the water, and break the original cut pomegranate into two halves and four petals in the water, until the pomegranate seeds in the pomegranate are taken out.
Because it was in the water, the broken white fruit coat came to the surface, and the red agate-like pomegranate seeds sank to the bottom of the basin.
The master and servant worked together, and soon peeled out all the seeds of the twenty pomegranates, "Okay, take this to the small kitchen, let Mother Zhong make it into a red pomegranate drink, and send some to the mother and sister-in-law."
Yuzhu picked up a handful of more crystal clear seeds after washing, gently put them in the mouth, and carefully experienced the sweet and sour juice overflowing the wonderful taste of the mouth in the slight cracking sound is really delicious, this original feeling, the seeds that have not been ripened are all red and moist, sweet and sour, juicy, and relieves the heat and awakens.
The delicious taste of the red pomegranate drink is instilled, the fragrance is overflowing, and Yuzhu is holding a crystal bowl with a lotus pattern smacking, and the mood is extremely comfortable.
After a while, Hua Zhen, who had delivered red pomegranate drinks everywhere, came back, and brought back a gossip that made Yuzhu even more excited.
The family affair of the eldest lady of the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion has been decided, and it is the prince of the Runan Palace, but the princess and the prince who entered the door as the side concubine of the prince have been married since childhood, and they will get married next year.
Yuzhu leaned back on the chair as if she was enjoying it, I don't know what it was like to be a fellow villager who didn't become the main room, when she accidentally saw the red bean and that Duanwu's private relationship, she felt that it was inappropriate at the time, the concept of the door exists in any era, and it is undoubtedly an extremely stupid act to challenge the entire system and public opinion with one's own strength, but that fellow villager is very annoying, if she reminds her, she may be considered to stop her Qingyun Road, Yuzhu is not a bad person, If she was going to tell her elders to control her reputation before she split up, but since they were all separated, no matter how ridiculous she was, she had nothing to do with herself.
After drinking the red pomegranate drink, Yuzhu put his hand away, these things don't need to be thought about by themselves at all, but Yulan, this sister has been losing her temper recently, how many times have she cried with Lin Yuanzhi, she is unwilling to marry the eldest son of the Zhou family given by Cui's family, Aunt Sun is still dragging her sick body to beg, she knows that she may not be able to survive this hurdle, and earlier when Cui's Xiaoyue was sitting in Xiaoyue, she pawned the valuable things in the house as a silver ticket to add a dowry to her daughter, hoping that Yulan could marry a good family, Who knew that the wife was actually eccentric, so far, the previous generation of the Zhou family was digging in the soil, and with the help of the eldest son, he was admitted to the Shu Jishi, which gradually became a little decent, and it was a family with no foundation at all Lin Yuanzhi has been angry recently, and he is really depressed enough to not understand his intentions, Yuzhu knows what he means, it is difficult for a concubine to marry, Yulan wants to marry highly, but if you consider Gaomen, then there is only a brother from the concubine, there are many rights and wrongs in the big family, the concubine has been suppressed or killed by his mother since he was a child, either cowardly or a bastard who eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles, and everything, where can he choose this young master of the Zhou family in the past Although the family is not obvious, but he can't stand the people's promising, Shu Jishi is from the second and third grades, The young and talented people who are selected to become the Ji Ji Shi generally have the opportunity to rise to the top, although it is not obvious now, but if the excellent results in the assessment before the examination will be conducted in three years, they can do editing or review in Hanlin, and officially enter Hanlin, even if the assessment is not good enough, they can also go to the six departments to serve as the chief or the imperial history, or if they can't do it, they can also move to the local government to serve as the best husband and wife of the concubine.
And after this village, there will be no such shop, in case the family survives, then the daughters of the family can also marry.
There was another trouble yesterday, Cui Shi and Lin Yuanzhi looked upset at Yulan's appearance of wiping her tears at every turn, so they simply locked her in the room to reflect, Xu's mother got Cui's signal to tell her the truth here, but Yulan's stubbornness came up, but she didn't agree.
Cui's is satisfied, she can see from the incident of choosing a hairpin last time, Yulan is not the kind of small-minded, as a concubine, she didn't have the consciousness of letting good things to her daughter-in-law, plus she didn't calculate Yuzhu before, although there was no substantial evil result, it was disgusting enough, so she can't be blamed for being ruthless, when drawing up the list, the rest of the candidates were ordinary, and the first and second candidates took a lot of thought from her, the first is that everything is good and the Zhou family is not good.
The second is that in addition to the good family, the other is not good, Zhou Gongzi, a concubine in the second room of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, must be the best match for Yulan, when she wrote it, she knew that her master would definitely choose him, and Yulan who dared to grab the hairpin with her concubine would not be satisfied, and she must be crying, but the more fierce she was, the better, and she tossed Lin Yuanzhi's fatherly heart towards her as soon as possible, so that she did not secretly show her so many scripts.
Cui's family doesn't want Yulan to marry into the Yongchang Marquis Mansion and then rely on that little affection to come to the door to complain for help, she will be full of affection on the face, but in private she has to bear it herself, and if she wants to shake off the burden, she must get rid of it thoroughly In Aunt Sun's house.
After a long illness, Aunt Sun's idea was more than half gone, and she lay on the bed with a pale face and wiped her tears: "Sister Lan, don't worry, even if your aunt gives up this life, she will not let Mrs. push you into the fire pit." ” Yulan's eyes were swollen like walnuts, and she burst into tears when she heard the words: "Auntie" Sure enough, Sister Hongdou is right, no one cares about her more than Auntie, but I hated that I was fascinated by Mother Xu before, and actually did something to hurt her, Yulan regretted it when she thought about it, "Auntie still takes care of her body first, with Daddy, my wife doesn't dare to harm me." ” "I'm afraid that the master will be mistreated, what if you have to marry him."
Aunt Sun was worried, her skinny hand touched her chest, and she said in a low voice: "I heard that there is a good family, but unfortunately I was stopped by my wife." ” Yulan clenched her fists nervously, and she didn't care about the shyness of talking about her own family affairs, and said hurriedly: "Which one?"
A wistful smile appeared on Aunt Sun's lips, and her complexion also regained a little ruin: "It's the little young master of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion." ” "Really."
Yulan was overjoyed when she heard this, and suddenly realized her loudness, and lowered her head embarrassedly, but she had a plan in her heart, since she had the opportunity, she had to fight for it, Sister Hongdou could fight for the identity of a princess with her own means, so why couldn't she fight for herself Mother Liu took a piece of silver and gave it to a little maid wearing an apricot yellow armor, and watched her gradually go away, so she turned around and entered the main room with a smile.
"Ma'am, it's done."
Cui Shi didn't show any surprise, and said with a smile: "It's not enough to deceive Aunt Sun's brain, that's weird." ” Mother Liu smiled and said, "It's hard for my wife to put up with her for so long, and I can finally clean her up without worries." ” "Okay, this matter is over, Yuxiu is going to bring her daughter to see me today, you go to the kitchen to clean up some jade sugar and japonica, I remember when she was in the boudoir, she liked to eat it the most."
Mother Liu vaguely remembered that her wife's close friend was a quiet and elegant little girl, so she didn't ask much at the moment, and bowed down to prepare.
It didn't take long for the second wife of the Xu family Bai to come to the door with her daughter, because the two close friends in the boudoir hadn't seen each other for many years, and they were full of things to say, Yuzhu was dragged out to entertain the fifth lady of the Xu family, Pingsu Yuzhu hates this kind of hospitality the most, the so-called hospitality is that everything must make the guests happy, which will inevitably cause her to be wronged, but the hidden reluctance in her heart to disappear when she sees someone coming "Sister Ruqing, why are you?"
Yuzhu was surprised, this is not the only Miss Xu Jiawu who helped her speak at the Zhixin meeting, I remember that she also gave her a sachet to express her gratitude at that time.
"Sister Lin is good."
Xu Ruqing greeted her softly, and also remembered that this girl was met at the Zhixin meeting.
Yu Zhumo, for Mao is "Sister Lin", and Sister is not Sister Lin.
"Sister, why do you have to see each other like this, how many years have Ling Tang and my mother been friends in the boudoir, do you still call each other Sister Bai and Sister Cui or call me Yuzhu."
Yuzhu was determined to stop letting her call herself "Sister Lin".
Xu Ruqing had a good impression of Yuzhu, and when he heard this, he immediately became kind, and shouted "Sister Yuzhu" with a smile.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and suddenly felt a lot closer.
It is estimated that the two mothers will not be able to finish talking for a while, so Yuzhu led Xu Ruqing to his yard, and without exception received a series of compliments.
Yuzhu said a few words modestly, took Xu Ruqing's hand into the house and sat down, and said with a smile: "Last time I rushed back, I didn't thank my sister well, and then I didn't dare to invite and didn't dare to come to the door, and I always remembered it in my heart, but today is a good opportunity."
At the beginning, when all the nobles showed that disgusting face, sarcastic and mocked her, none of her cousins and cousins stood up to help her defend herself, only this sister who had never met stepped forward, and that feeling was still deeply remembered in my heart, and I guess I will never forget it in my life. gd1806102:
