Thirteen Wives in the Red Chamber
Chapter 10 Incense Burner
It's been three months since Yinxiang moved into elder brother's house, and now it's the end of spring, and it's warm for the first time.Recently, Yinxiang has become obsessed with tinkering with spices. After class every day, he relies on his fast learning progress and more entertainment in his spare time.
Zhilanxuan is close to the small lake in the Imperial Garden. As the weather gets hotter, there are more mosquitoes.The screens nailed to the window were not enough to stop those small things from invading, and Yinxiang's skinny and tender arms were already several small bags.
The anti-mosquito grass that Luo Rang brought from the imperial doctor's office would leave an unpleasant smell after burning, and the concoction left in the bath every day made Yinxiang feel uncomfortable and had to wash it again every time Water, the efficacy of the medicine has gone by more than half.
Forced to do nothing, Yinxiang can only rely on himself.When he was in college, there was a time when pocket-sized indoor landscapes were very popular, and he was fascinated by them for a while, especially Su Dongpo's "A Small Cave in the Sky".I can't remember the details clearly, but it is probably a small thing made by using the characteristics of the incense burner to produce smoke.
At that time, he begged his grandfather for a long time before he found a beautiful stone with a suitable wooden base. He also made the inside of the base hollow and placed the small incense burner in it. There were some small holes where the base was close to the beautiful stone.In this way, once the cigarette is lit, the smoke slowly overflows from the holes at the root of the beautiful stone, and rises curlingly along the mountain stone.
To describe it in one sentence, it is like clouds and smoke coming out of Xiu, with a faint fragrance lingering.
It is said that this is the way of tasting incense popular among literati and scholars during the Song Dynasty. The so-called way of incense is quiet and quiet, which is the most rare.Summer is approaching, Yinxiang suddenly wants to cultivate his body and mind, well, actually he wants to tinker with the mosquito coil from his previous life.
He asked Luo Rang to find him a lot of silver dan grass, as well as dried cattail grass sticks and mugwort leaves.After drying, add crushed tea leaves, put in some imported peppermint essential oil, roll into strips with white paper, and the simple version of homemade mosquito coils is completed.
In his previous life, Yin Xiang, who was very pursuing petty bourgeois life, specially found an incense vessel in his warehouse, and put it on the low table beside the bed. He burned a stick of incense every day, and the fragrance was lingering. , Cool and comfortable, it is mind-wandering.The little man knelt in front of the window, full of emotions, looking through the window to the imperial garden, the lush trees and blooming flowers made him fascinated.In this complicated world, amidst the fragrance, you can finally find your own spiritual pure land.
It is exactly in response to Mr. Dongpo's sentence - "there is joy in the world".
Distributing these things everywhere was a great gesture of hospitality, and Zhang Jia's Minxiu was naturally the most supportive, and they were used the next day after they were delivered.After playing with this thing for a few days, Yinxiang had other ideas. Nowadays, incense is very popular in the capital, and when it spread to the palace, women in the palace also love to use incense. Depending on their status, the value of the spices is different. Also different.
Incense is a very common thing, Yinxiang's mosquito-repellent incense is just an elegant word, nothing new.
And the various essential oils brought by foreigners have become another area developed by Yinxiang. All kinds of essential oils gather in his hands, and by adding or deleting some things appropriately, another area can be achieved. Fantastic taste, a small cigarette contains great wisdom.
Although Yinxiang's kung fu can only be called an entry-level skill in mixing and making incense, he has a great time playing it.
By chance, the emperor saw this little thing in the Changchun Palace. The small landscape is eye-catching and very practical.What is smoked is the most common Yindan grass, which has the taste of mugwort leaves and tea leaves, but it has a little more coolness.After he asked a lot, he realized that it was his son's masterpiece.
For some reason, the emperor suddenly came up with the idea of visiting Thirteenth Brother's residence. He always knew that this son liked to tinker with strange things, but when he actually stepped into Zhilanxuan, he was shocked!
A six-year-old child, in the yard he decorated by himself, sees mysteries everywhere.
Zhilanxuan is at the farthest corner of elder brother's house, with three main rooms and a small side room.After Yinxiang was assigned here, there was no major repair, and the cleaned house was still a bit cute, and under Yinxiang's arrangement, it vaguely revealed a bit of cleanliness.Everything comes together to make this yard extra cozy.
There are three rattan chairs under the small grape arbor in the corner of the yard, and a round colored glass on top of the original tea table.There is nothing planted on both sides of the cobblestone road, and the bare bluestone floor has been washed clean, revealing a faint smell of clarity.
Walking in, there is a living room in the middle, which is unremarkable. On the wall are the calligraphy and paintings that he handwritten as a reward during the Chinese New Year.There are two pots of evergreen pine on the shelf, and the small potted plants are green and upright, full of vitality.The two small doors on the left and right are separated by ordinary bead curtains, the study is on the left and the bedroom is on the right.
Most of the ancient shelves in the study are books, and some of the ornaments are also gifts from the elders.The only thing that caught the emperor's attention was the blower in the corner, which seemed to be manual or automatic, allowing the wind to blow in in the hot summer, not bad!
There are several pots of spider plants hanging on the window sill, and two pearl birds are raised in a small bird cage. Their chubby bodies resemble the host, but they are a good match.
This arrangement is also somewhat wild.
The bedroom on the other side is quite different, probably Yinxiang is not used to people sleeping next to his bed, so there are two low beds in the room, leaning against one side.The bed was covered with thick cushions, covered with two layers of rattan mats, and a layer of small bamboo pads in the middle, which was very cool to the touch.The fluffy pillow is also very tempting to look at. Xuan Ye looked at all this and felt emotional. This son enjoys it even more than he imagined.
While the emperor was watching, Yinxiang was teaching in Wuyizhai.Yinxiang, who has been in school for three months, is very much loved by his husband, and he has undoubtedly revealed his advantages at a young age.
The princes' classes were nothing more than poetry and etiquette, and many children of his age couldn't even hold a pen, but Yinxiang could already recite enlightenment books such as the Three Character Classic, and even write most of the characters he read.The horizontal and vertical writing style also satisfied the husband very much. People like Xu Yuanmeng would nod frequently when talking about Yinxiang.
In terms of riding and shooting, he is much weaker, young, not tall enough, and not strong enough in arms.Of course, Jin Da also knew his situation, taught him step by step, and now he was able to hit the target, but the distance was a little short.
His companions were not only Dawei from the Zhang Jia clan of his uncle's family, but also the young son Dongduo from the branch of the Yehenala clan. His father was an imperial guard, and he was sent in because of his relationship.Yin Xiang likes these two little friends very much, needless to say his cousin, even Dong Duo is innocent and romantic, easy to get along with.
The three of them quickly became one and were inseparable.
The emperor watched his son's various miraculous arrangements and designs in Yinxiang's bedroom, while Yinxiang, who rushed in sweating profusely, took a shower in the remodeled bathroom.The bag made of pigskin hanging on the head is filled with freshly dried water. As soon as the gate is opened, the water sprays down from the hole, washing it from head to toe.
After riding a horse, he was covered in sweat. A slightly clean freak like him couldn't stand it. He was obsessed with taking a bath and couldn't help himself, so he didn't notice any difference in the room.Yin Xiang, who was always used to doing things by himself, put on his clothes and walked into the bedroom through the small door, he was almost scared out of his wits by his Huang Ama!
"See Huang Ama." After recovering, he saluted immediately, not caring about his disheveled clothes, "Huang Ama should be free now?" Did not go.
"Why, I'm not welcome here?" The emperor lifted the hem of his clothes and sat down on Yinxiang's bed.Looking at his son's slightly wet hair, he blamed slightly, "Why are you so ignorant, why don't you ask someone to come in and take care of you."
Liang Jiugong immediately nodded to the little eunuch beside him, who picked up the towel and was about to wipe Yinxiang's hair.
Yinxiang resisted the discomfort in his heart, resisted the urge to wake up Huang Ama, closed his eyes, and kept his eyes closed.His slight obsession with cleanliness has now turned into a serious obsession with cleanliness. Even if he keeps building himself up, Huang Ama is very clean, very clean, very clean.
But he still couldn't help but think back in his heart, he put on this dress, sat in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, got a lot of dust outside, sat in the Luanjia, and there are many other things he doesn't know.But now he is sitting carelessly on his bed, isn't that indirectly letting his sheets have been to so many places...
How dare he sleep at night? !
"Huang Ama, you haven't said anything yet, why come here when you have time." Speaking of which, elder brother's place is not close to the emperor's Qianqing Palace. The bedroom appears.
After being told by his son, Xuan Ye thought about it carefully, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong, "It's nothing wrong." He put his eyes on the small bonsai in the house that was slowly smoky, "This little thing is quite cute, my dear. I also saw it on your mother-in-law, I heard that you did it yourself?"
Yinxiang felt that he was hallucinating, and he seemed to have heard the accusation from Huang Ama.Tilting his head, "Erchen also gave it to you, but you were busy that day, and Eunuch Wei asked me to go another day, so I forgot about it." Well, he won't admit it, he just did it on purpose of.
Without waiting for the emperor to speak, Yinxiang continued to talk, "Ama Huang, I heard that you are not going to Jiangnan anymore? Then wouldn't it be inconvenient for me to send some things to sister Lin? How about you help me with the things?" Send it to the post station, and let the post station help to send it to Jiangnan." Then he looked at him with his big eyes expectantly.
With a blow of understanding, the son didn't take himself seriously at all, and what he chanted all day long was all nonsense.Xuan Ye snorted heavily in his heart, looked at the wicked son in front of him, and didn't want to condescend to care about a six-year-old milk baby, so he could only hold back his anger and said, "It's okay, you give the things to Liang Jiugong and let him I'll arrange it for you. Let's not take this as an example, you have met this Lin family once, why are you so caring?"
Yinxiang rolled his eyes, winked at Luo Rang secretly, and changed the subject, "Huang Ama, do you feel that the smoke is very refreshing, without anger at all?" Thanks to the essential oils you gave me, the peppermint smell is very good, and it can also repel mosquitoes. I haven’t been bitten by mosquitoes in the past few days, and I can sleep soundly.”
After being said by his son, the emperor's face became even worse, and he almost threw up his sleeves and left.Yinxiang sighed pretentiously, "Erchen originally prepared the most beautiful stove for you, and added a lot of landscapes, so you can't see the fireworks at all, and it's pleasing to the eye. It's a pity, you don't need , I said it would be too wasteful to leave it alone, so I will give it to..."
Hearing this, Xuanye's big eyes stared at him fiercely, and Yinxiang changed his mouth consciously, "I saved it, thinking that I must find a chance to give it to you." Waving his hand outside, "Luo Rang, hurry up!" Bring it up!"
The author has something to say: Alright, I originally wanted to jump straight to Daiyu’s return to Beijing, but I feel too rushed, and it seems that I will skip it. I’d better write honestly and try to write a long article of 50 words... (Hope I don't slap myself in the face.)
