MTL - Unparalleled Concubine-Chapter 135 How to get to Datongfang?
Chapter 135 How to get to Chase Square?
Datongfang, Li Xin's yard.
The aggrieved Zhong Xiaoxiao lay in Li Xin's arms and couldn't help wiping her tears, Li Xin reached out and patted her back gently, smiling: "Okay, don't cry, brother, isn't it back. "
The little girl raised her head a little aggrieved and looked at Li Xin.
"Brother lied, I learned more than 1,000 words last month, you will come back now."
Before Li Xin parted, he made a promise with this little girl that she would come back when she learned to write a thousand words. At that time, the girl would have written one or two hundred words. During this time, she was studying almost every day without eating or sleeping. In writing, I learned a thousand words in two months.
In fact, this is very difficult. Traditional Chinese characters are inherently cumbersome, and she had no foundation before. She had to rely on Cui Jiuniang to teach her, and it was very rare that she could learn nearly a thousand words in two months.
When Li Xin went to pick her up at the proud building today, even Cui Jiuniang said it was a pity that she was a woman.
The implication is that if Zhong Xiaoxiao is a boy, it will probably not be a problem for him to get a job title in the future.
Li Xin reached out and touched the little girl's head, and said with a smile, "Something has been delayed on the way. I'll make it up to you later, okay?"
This trip to the southern border, from going to returning to the Golden Temple, and then to the Golden Temple, for two or three months, Li Xin's nerves are in a tense state, only now facing this simple and kind little girl At that time, his tense nerves suddenly relaxed.
In the great furnace of the capital, Zhong Xiaoxiao is probably the only one who has no scheming and no pressure to get along with each other. This is one of the reasons why Li Xin and Cui Jiuniang like her very much.
Zhong Xiaoxiao shook his head and said, "Brother has been busy outside for so long, so I will rest for a few days when I return to the capital."
She wiped away tears with her sleeves, turned and walked to the kitchen: "I'll go get my brother to eat."
After Li Xin moved, Zhong Xiaoxiao lived in the Deyi Building for most of the time. She didn't really live in this new home for a long time, but she could still find the location of the kitchen, so she immediately walked towards the kitchen.
She is only six years old. Although she has eaten better during this time, she is no longer as thin and thin as before, but after all, she can't grow up all of a sudden, and her small body is very cute when walking.
Li Xin picked her up in three or two steps, and said with a smile: "The stove is not yet high, so what to cook, go to the fire, brother will get you some soup to make up your body."
The little girl wrinkled her nose, a little unconvinced: "Sister Cui said, I have grown a lot taller."
While the two brothers and sisters were joking, a crisp voice came from the door of Li Xin's courtyard.
"Li Xin!"
is the voice of Ji Lingxiu, the nine princesses.
Lieutenant Colonel shook his head, put Zhong Xiaoxiao on the ground, and said softly, "Good, go back to the room first, and I'll get you some food later."
Zhong Xiaoxiao knew that her brother had something to do. Although she sometimes acted like a spoiled brat with Li Xin, she never made a fool of herself at such a time. She nodded her head obediently and went back to her room.
Li Xin lowered his head and tidied up his clothes, walked to the gate of the yard, opened the gate, and saw the ninth princess in thin clothes standing at the gate of the yard aggressively. After seeing Li Xin, the princess pinched her hands on her waist and watched fiercely Li Xin.
"Li Xin, as the head guard of this palace, after returning to the capital, you didn't report back to the princess' residence. What's your sin?"
A smile appeared on Li Xin's face: "How does Your Highness know that I'm back?"
Her Royal Highness raised her head: "Don't change the subject, answer this palace's question quickly!"
After the Princess left the palace and opened the mansion, she could call herself the Palace, but this ninth princess usually doesn't need to call herself so arrogantly to others on weekdays, that is, when facing Li Xin, she is arrogant.
After he returned to the capital, his itinerary was still kept secret, that is, he showed up at the court this morning, but it was impossible for the ninth princess to come into contact with the court. After much deliberation, only the seventh prince revealed his whereabouts.
Thinking of this, Li Xin smiled helplessly: "I've been to the Southern Border for more than two months, and Her Royal Highness will always allow me to rest for a day or two, right?"
Ji Lingxiu snorted softly.
"Don't come here. What do you want to do when you are in my house? You are clearly hiding and don't want to see me!"
Li Xin really didn't want to see her.
It's just that after returning to the capital, there are many things to be busy with, including dealing with the emperor of Chengde, as well as distilling wine and other messy things, plus the trip to the southern border took a lot of energy, so Li Xin thought about taking a break or two. I will go to the Princess Mansion on an errand again.
After all, dealing with a young girl in puberty is no easier than dealing with Li Shen.
Reasoning with a woman is undoubtedly stupid. Colonel Li blinked and said with a soft laugh, "I just wanted to be lazy for a day or two. Your Highness came to the door in person, wouldn't it be just to raise a teacher to ask guilt?"
Ji Lingxiu pouted, reached out and beckoned behind him.
A carriage slowly came out from the corner, and the princess snorted lightly at Li Xin, "Guess what's inside?"
Across the carriage, where did Li Xin guess, he shook his head very single.
"I can not guess it."
"so stupid."
Jiu Gongzhu rolled her eyes at Li Xin: "The weather is getting hot now. I asked for a few carts of ice from the Seventh Brother's house a few days ago. I'm afraid I'll die from the heat, so I'll send you a cart!"
At this time, it is already midsummer in the capital. The end of May and the beginning of June are the beginning of the hot and dry year. At this time, the most important thing is to cool down. The nobles in Beijing often store ice in winter, put it in the ice cellar, and then Take it out for cooling in summer.
is the same as burning charcoal in winter, these noble gentlemen will not let themselves get hot and cold.
There is a lot of ice in the Wei Palace of His Royal Highness King Wei. It is used to escape the heat in summer. It is estimated that he will feel distressed when the ninth princess knocks several carts of ice all at once.
Li Xin smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, I don't have an ice cellar here, so I can't store this..."
Ji Lingxiu grew up, and the people she has come into contact with are either rich or expensive, and almost every family has an ice cellar, so she subconsciously thinks that every household in the capital has an ice cellar to store ice.
The Ninth Princess immediately blushed and said a little embarrassedly: "Then what should I do..."
In any case, Ji Lingxiu was well-intentioned. Li Xin walked behind the carriage, lifted the curtain, and the ice inside was probably half a car. Inside, Li Xin took a plate from it, then turned around and smiled at the Nine Princesses.
"His Royal Highness, I remembered an iced food some time ago, and you happened to be here today, are you interested in trying it?"
Nine princesses lit up.
Li Xin had a smile on his face, but he was crying in his heart.
Beating cream with egg white is a laborious task. Without a mixer, it would be very laborious, and I don’t know if it can be done, but he has made this thing in his previous life, and he still has a lot of experience, so there should be no problem if there is no accident.
Just when Li Xin was in his own home, serving cream ice cream to the Nine Princesses and Zhong Xiaoxiao, a young man from Nanshu stepped on Desheng Street in Beijing.
This young man pulled over a passerby with a strong voice of Sichuan and Shu.
"Excuse me, may I go to Datong Square?"
