Red Mansion is so good I want to cry

Beef is a favorite nowadays, and there are often dishes with beef as the main course on the imperial dining table.It wasn't once or twice that Shuiyuan rubbed against his father's food.It's just that when I saw the thinly sliced ​​sauced beef on the table today, for some reason, I wanted to know if there was half a catty of sauced beef on this plate?

Probably not.

I don't know how much the sauced beef in the palace costs per catty?

Looking at Shui Yuan staring at the plate of sauced beef in front of him in a daze, he gave the eunuch serving the meal a look and asked him to put the dish in front of Shui Yuan. "Nineteen, what are you thinking about, don't be in a daze when you eat."

Shui Yuan kept staring at the sauced beef, and when he heard his father's question, he replied without thinking, "I'm wondering how much money a catty of sauced beef costs in the palace."

The corner of his mouth twitched when he heard the words, seeing that his favorite beef in the past lost his appetite today. "Cows are important tools for farming, and it's a pity to eat them. The imperial dining room only buys one head every month. Even your father, you can't eat it a few times a month."

The implication is that no matter how expensive it is, there must be a market.

Nowadays, it is known that what the world likes to do the most is to follow the example. If people know that he likes to eat beef, it will cause a large number of people who blindly follow the trend and also eat a lot of beef.This will have a certain impact on the people and spring plowing.So even though I like to eat beef very much nowadays, I have never ordered any dishes related to beef.

Moreover, the folks have also issued relevant laws and regulations, and the folks can only slaughter cattle that cannot move after being confirmed by the government.

Shui Yuan had no problem with beef at first, but now he heard what his father said, so he didn't bring up this topic anymore.He got up and saluted, then sat down and ate again.

Of course, after Shui Yuan sat down, the first chopsticks were dedicated to the sauced beef.

After the meal, drink Xiaoshi tea with the source of water.Today he suddenly said to Shui Yuan, "I remember that yesterday was the day when Jia She and your cousin from the Jin family were very happy. It stands to reason that this is the day to return home. You will go to Rongguo Mansion for me in a while, and let your cousin and cousin's husband Tomorrow, come to the palace for a while." With only such a little blood left by Zongmei, he can afford to protect him as much as he can.

With Jia She's naive nature, now he feels that his niece should not be bullied with her abilities.Thinking of this, he paused for a moment, looked at Shui Yuan and said, "I remember that you met that granddaughter of Jia Daishan. I think that little girl is quite likable. You are an uncle, so you are not allowed to bully her anymore. do you know?"

Hearing this, Shui Yuan widened his eyes and looked at his father in disbelief.

uncle?

What the hell is uncle?

Shui Yuan was a little confused.

Shui Yuan knows that his father has always had a good relationship with the Zong's aunt who was raised in the palace before, and they are often referred to as brother and sister.If this aunt hadn't been the daughter of the Zong family first, and the emperor's cousin second, maybe there would be no such thing as Concubine Zhen in the harem.

But Shui Yuan didn't expect that his father would really have such a deep brotherhood with that aunt, and it would benefit her daughter.

Therefore, this cousin, this uncle, Shui Yuan agreed with each other from the bottom of his heart.

Uncle or something, I hate it the most.

Thinking of that little chubby girl from Jia's family calling him uncle, Shui Yuan repelled him very much.

It is said that as a prince, Shui Yuan does not have an uncle.It's just that his relatives, cousins, and family uncles don't think much of him.

One is because of his personality, and the other is that none of these uncles does not want to benefit from him.

They also didn't think about how difficult it would be for him, a prince without the protection of his old mother, to live like a human being in this palace.

None of them thought about his difficulties, and they all felt that his little hobbies were not considered elegant.

A penny kills a hero, making it seem like they don't know how to pick up money.

If they are really so noble, then they will believe that all the beauties are not respectful.

Hmph, why don't you think about it, if it weren't for his hobby, just the fact that the queen adopted a son would have surprised him a hundred and eighty times.

Whether he can survive until now is another matter.

Even his old mother probably won't die of illness by himself.The queen has no children, and when his temperament was not exposed, he was always watching and waiting to abduct children.

(￣e(#￣)

"What did the father say? How did my son bully that little girl? That little fat girl stole my son's things." After speaking, he cheated on his father, and rubbed him a few taels of good tea and a visit After receiving the gift, Shui Yuan left his father's place and returned to his nest.

Back in the bedroom, Shui Yuan took a look at the sky, hesitated for a moment, then asked someone to change into a common clothes for him and took the servants around him out of the palace.

Sitting in his ostentatious sedan chair all the way through the city, Shuiyuan arrived at the gate of Rongguo Mansion without any pressure.

Because Shui Yuan had also been to Rongguo Mansion before, he took people directly to the place where Jia She lived without waiting for the servants of Rongguo Mansion to report his name.

The servant in front of Rongguo Mansion dared not let him go in like this, so he had to quickly catch up and follow carefully to lead the way for Shuiyuan.

Shui Yuan doesn't think highly of himself, and the powerful ministers don't need to be courteous.Being too courteous and virtuous as a corporal, or being too thoughtful in behavior, may get a good reputation among ordinary people, but it is the worst thing in the royal family.If you want to live for a long time, the most important thing you should do is...willfulness.

When the self-willed Shui Yuan walked to Jia She's East Courtyard, Jia She's father and son who were in the Lixiang Court rushed over.

The three greeted each other and entered the East Courtyard together.

Jia Daishan is the Duke of the State, and this is the Duke's Mansion. As the master, he naturally has to sit at the top, and Shui Yuan is the prince, even though he is young, he can still sit at the top.So Jia Daishan and Shui Yuan took the main seat in the main room.

And our protagonist, Amnesty, can only sit on the first chair on the east side aggrievedly.

Shui Yuan said his intention in the future, and said that he hadn't seen his cousin for a long time, so please come out and meet her.Shui Yuan is only about ten years old this year, and he said he was his cousin, and made it clear that the emperor asked him to come, so Jia Daishan had no reason not to let him see him.

Although it is rare for a family member to come to the house on the second day of the wedding, it is not a big deal.Jia Daishan winked at his son, and Jia Amnesty stood up from the chair, and went to the backyard in a dizzy manner.

When Jia Amnesty came over, the Jin family had just turned sideways for a while, and at this moment she was taking stock of her dowry with the companions she had brought.

Jia She explained the purpose of the water source, and the Jin family did not hesitate, looked down at the clothes on her body, touched the temples on her head, and followed Jia She to the front yard of the East Courtyard.

As soon as he walked, although Jin walked a little fast, he also carefully looked at the places he passed.

This East Courtyard is indeed the place where Xijue's eldest son lives, and there is even a small independent garden.

The garden area is not large, but it looks small and exquisite.Jin's mood improved a lot when she thought that she could go to the garden if she had nothing to do in daily life.After passing through the small garden and turning around a nine-curved corridor, the Jin family finally followed Jia She to the front yard.

Although Shui Yuan is kind, they know from the bottom of their hearts whether the pair of cousins ​​have feelings for each other.Knowing that Shuiyuan and Jinjin were making faces for her, Jin was grateful in her heart, and showed a little kindness on her face.

Asked about today's safety, and asked about the water source, and then asked people to serve some snacks and melons and fruits for the water source as refreshments. After a while, he said that fresh and good venison was obtained on the stove, and kept the water source for dinner in the house. He said that he ate it early, so that he would not delay the time when the key was released in the palace.

Although Shui Yuan is desperate for money, it's not that he doesn't know why his father asked him to make this trip, so he pretended to be familiar with it and ordered two of his favorite dishes, and said he wanted wine .

"How old are you, so I dare not give you wine. I have Xinde's good honey water. I will make a pot for you to drink later. I'm sure you will like it."

Shui Yuan was not annoyed when she heard Jin's refusal, but she didn't care about her proposal, "Come on, what good honey water have you never eaten? Who likes sweet and greasy."

Mrs. Jin just smiled when she heard this, "This honey water is different from what we used to eat, it's my niece's filial piety."

Shui Yuan was stunned for a moment when Jin, who was just married yesterday, said her daughter. When he realized who his cheap cousin was talking about, he twitched the corners of his mouth, feeling a little annoyed in his heart, "So it's fat The girl gave it to you, so let's try it for now."

The Jin family answered with a smile when they heard the words, and after talking to Shui Yuan for a few more words, they didn't stay in the front yard any longer, and went back to the back yard with the girl and mother-in-law.

After returning to the main courtyard, he asked someone to go to the small kitchen of the East courtyard to order carefully, and then glanced at the honey that Jia Xiaoniu sent before, and he felt a little better about his stepdaughter. impression.

The honey was sent by Jia Xiaoniu to Dou Miao just now, and Dou Miao was an acquaintance who came to help the night before yesterday after listening to Jia Xiaoniu's orders.

As soon as she came, she helped Jin's companions settle down. Even the bowl of chicken noodle soup that Jin ate last night was made by Doumiao and the people from the small kitchen.

Jia Amnesty's courtyard used to belong to the Zhang family. After receiving the imperial decree to bestow marriage, everything related to the Zhang family in the East Courtyard was sent to the Rongxi Hall by Jia Daishan to be sealed by Jia Lian.

Not even a single person or thing was left.

On the eve of Jin's marriage, although Jia Xiaoniu didn't have much affection for her stepmother, she didn't let her stepmother get confused when she first entered the mansion, so she sent the bean sprouts around her on the day Jin's dowry was delivered. Went to help settle down.

Dou Miao is Jia Xiaoniu's big girl, and Jia Xiaoniu is Jia Daishan's darling. Once she came, no one in the entire East Courtyard dared to fart, so the people from the Jin family were settled very smoothly, and the next day When getting married, he helped out.This made the Jin family who knew all this later had a good impression of Jia Xiaoniu.

Although the child is quite skinny, his heart is not bad.

Jia Xiaoniu did all of this, except to sell her stepmother for a favor, but she just didn't want to see "other people" happy.And by taking the initiative to help, you can also take a look at all the companions of the Jin family, which can be considered safe.

It's as if the Jin family had time to ask about her companions today, Jia Xiaoniu also took her brother to ask about the situation of the Doumiao Jin family.

However, Jia Lian, who had not been under Wu for a long time, heard that Jia Xiaoniu asked someone to send homemade honey to the Jin family, and thought of the usual methods used in the back house, and was a little worried. "Sister, if you give her or your wife honey, aren't you afraid of being bitten back?" For example, poisoning or miscarriage.

Jia Xiaoniu shook her head with a smile, "Brother, there are so many bad people in this world. If our wife is really like this, we will just ignore her."

Jia Xiaoniu smiled innocently, but she didn't tell Jia Lian that she got the honey from Jia Daishan, and she sent it out in front of Jia Daishan.

If something happened, it had nothing to do with her.

Most importantly, she dug a hole in advance.If the Jin family is a good person, then this matter is considered to be her intention to make friends.If Jin's intentions were not right, she handed her a ready-made ladder and saw if she would jump into it.

If you jump...

Jia Xiaoniu didn't tell the truth and just played flower guns here, which made Jia Lian anxious for a while.I can't help worrying that such an innocent and ignorant sister will suffer a lot in the future.

Alas, why does his sister look so much like his father in this respect?

really careless

……

On the other hand, Shui Yuan and Jia Daishan and his son belong to three generations according to age.Sitting in a room is really nothing to talk about.Shui Yuan wanted to meet Jia Xiaoniu very much in his heart, so he directly mentioned it to Jia's father and son.

Jia Xiaoniu was less than seven years old, and the two felt that Shui Yuan could be regarded as Jia Xiaoniu's uncle, so they agreed to the request.

Shui Yuan rejected Jia Daishan and Jia Amnesty's proposal to accompany him, and directly found a girl to lead him the way, and swaggered towards Jia Xiaoniu's yard.

Jia Xiaoniu's yard is right behind the Rongxi Hall, the main courtyard of the Rongguo Mansion, so it can be said to be on the central axis.

Seeing the location of Jia Xiaoniu's yard, Shui Yuan thought of the East Palace and the prince for some reason.

I really didn't expect that fat girl to be the baby bump in Rongguo Mansion.

When we arrived at the yard, there was another announcement.After Shui Yuan sat on Jia Xiaoniu's couch in the flower hall, Jia Lian and Jia Xiaoniu, the little brother and sister, sat together opposite him.

Shui Yuan first looked at Jia Lian, and when he saw Jia Lian's dark smile because of the tooth change, he naturally turned his gaze to Jia Xiaoniu beside him.

Raising his eyebrows, he looked at Jia Xiaoniu who was still chubby, and asked her with a little awkward concern, "I heard that you have a stepmother, so I came to see you."

People in the world often say that with a stepmother, there will be a stepfather.Shui Yuan felt that there was some truth to this statement.Although his father still loves him as much as before.But since the mother and concubine left, Shui Yuan still felt different.

What kind of temperament is his cheap cousin, he still doesn't know.But in his opinion, with the support of his father, his cousin should not be too scruples.He was a little worried about Jia Pangniu, a cheap niece.

It's just that Shui Yuan's words were heard by Jia Xiaoniu because of her position, but they were full of malice, so Jia Xiaoniu asked him not to be outdone.

"Thank you for your concern, but I heard that you also have many stepmothers?" Is there any inexplicable uncle who fell from the sky?She has.

Water source: ...

I really can't continue talking today.
