The upgrade of Concubine Xian in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 581
The footsteps of autumn slowly approached, and the maple leaves outside elder brother's place slowly turned red. Zarafin thought that this would be the time when the crabs were at their most plump.

After breakfast this day, Zarafin rested his chin, wondering if he wanted crab dumpling for lunch. Two days ago, he ate spicy shrimp. The shrimp was delicious and chewy, and the taste was extremely delicious.

correct!

She clasped her hands together, turned her head and called tortoiseshell.

"Hortoiseshell, go to the dining room and let Eunuch Liu pick up fat crabs and bigger shrimps to make some dumplings." Zarafin felt a little greedy.

In modern times, if she wants to eat dumplings, she goes directly to the supermarket outside the community and buys some according to her favorite taste.

"Yes, servant girl is going now!" Tortoise shell was stunned for a moment, but followed the order and went.

The fourth master specifically explained that no persuasion is allowed, as long as Zarafin likes it.

Looking at the back of the tortoise shell, Zarafin felt angry and moved.

There is no such thing as a hundred-day red flower!
Although these words are short, they fully describe the status quo of women in the palace. They rely on men's favor and will soon be replaced by new women.

She disdains to fight with other women, why do women make things difficult for women, smart women deal with men.

"Master, crabs and shrimps are both cold in nature. I will prepare some red dates and ginger tea for you." Tortoise looked at Zarafin and made a decision to use these two kinds of dumplings.

Zarafin shook her head, she is still too small now, even if she gave birth to a child, there would be some danger.

Every time when menstruation comes, Huobi will prepare red dates and ginger tea, she is not sensitive to the taste.

"Use it at night, put less brown sugar in it, and put more dates." Zarafen likes the taste of dates.

Tortoise shell hurriedly responded, the morning time passed quickly, Zarafin often dawdled for a while, and it was time for Hongli to leave school from the study.

During the day, Fujin had to copy Buddhist scriptures, and his lunch was served in the side hall of the Buddhist hall, so fourth master's lunch was served at Zarafin.

Entering the door of Zarafin's house, he saw the little girl turning over and laying down on the bed, walking towards the door with her shoes on.

"Master Jixiang, why didn't someone pass it on? I can go out to meet him." Hongli agreed to say it in private, and Zarafin used me as his own name.

Zarafin's cheeks flushed pink because of running, and Hongli reached out to help her up.

"No, it's just the two of us in the courtyard." Hongli didn't care, as long as he obeyed the rules outside, he could always break the rules inside the courtyard, which would make him feel powerless.

The two walked into the dining room hand in hand, and Hongli looked at the table. How sweet was it?
"Will this eat the pastry?" Hongli asked in surprise.

It is not a big deal that Zarafen likes pasta. In autumn, people use more stews, commonly known as sticking autumn fat.

"Yeah, the shrimp and three delicacies, this one is more delicious than other times." Zarafin explained with bright eyes, "The crab meat and dumplings are in season."

Hongli smiled lightly, she likes to study food, and she is the only one in the backyard.

Zarafin entered the mansion, he didn't feel the bitterness of summer, instead he gained a few jins of flesh this summer, Huang Ama even asked privately, saying that whoever served him would reward him well at that time.

At that time, Hongli was in a very complicated mood. In the past, Concubine Tong would be anxious in summer.Ever since Concubine Tong passed away and he returned to Concubine De, he had never felt such greetings again.

Now that he has grown up, he doesn't need Concubine De's care. In the backyard, except for Zarafin, no one pays special attention to his bitter summer affairs. He chooses his daily meals from the menu prepared by the imperial dining room.

The two used the buns, and Hongli admitted that it was the first time that he felt the taste of the buns was excellent, and Zarafin had put a lot of thought into it.

He sent Hongli to the study, and Gao Wuyong went to the imperial dining room. He passed on Hongli's words that in the evening, he would have two plates of pastries for lunch.

After Eunuch Liu sent Gao Wuyong away, the cooks around were stunned. No wonder, Eunuch Liu was holding that little princess.

"That one can reach the heavens." Eunuch Xia is a good pastry pastry expert, and today he specially made pastries, "I'm still complaining, alas, I can't see gold inlaid with jade."

Eunuch Liu said with a smile: "Don't look at this one with a hammer head and a stick, but it can make that master look at it."

In the deep palace for decades, Eunuch Liu believed that his ability to judge people was very accurate. If he didn't change his temper, Fourth Master would always protect him.

The princes were very lonely, and they seldom experienced warmth. Little Gege's painstaking arrangements made Fourth Master feel that someone was caring.

"Okay, Xiao Shunzi, hurry up and get two baskets of crabs and shrimps, prepare dinner, and prepare one for that one at the small stove, papaya and snow clams." Eunuch Liu hurriedly explained.

On the other side, Zarafin sent Hongli away and took a nap directly. When she got up again, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. She looked at a quartz clock on the long desk. It was said that it was when Concubine Tong Gui was there. Two French tribute clocks specially selected for Hongli.

She stretched her waist, changed into a dark blue flowing cheongsam, and put on a goose yellow vest. Holding her small hoe, she started plowing every day, carefully caring for the sprouting fruits and vegetables.

When Zarafin proposed planting flower pots to grow vegetables, everyone from Hongli to Tortoise felt that they would definitely fail.

In just one month, Hongli became very interested in the small vegetable garden separated by Zarafin's screen. These vegetables can still thrive without fertilization.

"Tortoiseshell, bring a large bowl." Zarafin looked at the densely packed vegetable seedlings, and prepared to enjoy the fun of a farmer's wife, and introduced the seedlings with his own hands.

In the afternoon, Zarafin sat on a small bench and took care of his small vegetable garden.

Soon, a large bowl of vegetable seedlings was picked, Zarafin asked the tortoise to scoop it up with water, and prepared to eat it with cold dishes.

As dinner was approaching, she put down her hoe and looked at the vegetable garden she had tidied up, feeling beautiful in her heart.

The fourth master came back from the study and heard Gao Wuyong say that Zarafen took the seedlings and made cold salad with them.

"Go and wait outside. After a while, the tortoise will deliver cold dishes, and they will be served right away." Hongli was writing his homework, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Zarafin has a little habit. When he has something delicious, he will share it with him.

Before dinner, tortoise shell came from a distance with a square food box, Gao Wuyong saw it, and couldn't help admiring the master's ingenious plan.

"Grandpa Su, these are the vegetable seedlings planted by the master himself. I just mixed two plates of cold dishes and asked the servant to bring a portion for the master to taste." Tortoise handed the food box to Gao Wuyong, and then handed over a small food box, " Here are some snacks, if you are hungry, fill your stomach first."

After the tortoiseshell delivered something, he bowed and saluted, then turned and left.

Gao Wuyong's heart is warmed up, all the female relatives in the backyard will give things to the fourth master, but Zarafin is the only one who thinks about Gao Wuyong.

"Master, Shu Shujue Luo Gege sent cold dishes, which are snacks prepared by a slave." Gao Wuyong has followed Hongli for many years, and never concealed what Hongli received.

"Well, it's also the little girl's kindness. After serving my meal, go down and use it first." Hongli nodded slightly.

After an afternoon tea, Zarafin became completely famous, and those beautiful and exquisite refreshments became a magic spell, lingering on the heads of the female relatives all the time.

The princes envied Hongli and Hongluo one after another. They were able to take the top spot. Even if Hongli shared his afternoon tea with all the brothers, he couldn't calm down the envy in his heart.

As the sun was setting, Zarafin stood at the door waiting for Hongli and Hongluo to return. Today, she notified Gao Wuyong to let Hongluo come to have dinner together in the tent.

Yongzheng rewarded a lot of delicious food. Among them, there was a beach sheep, which looked like a lamb. Zarafin specially let the tortoise shell be marinated directly according to the modern recipe of roasting whole sheep.

Just now, Bayan directly put the lamb on the bonfire. The arena had just ended, and everyone smelled a scent. They paid close attention to the location of the scent with myopia and curiosity.

Hongli shook his head, Zarafin likes to toss and fiddle with food, and now, it is fulfilled, the taste of barbecue is varied, so he doesn't feel boring anymore.

"Fourth brother, did my little sister-in-law roast the whole lamb?" Hongluo sniffled, the taste was absolutely delicious.

In the distance, the princes of Mongolia wanted to pay attention to it. After all, they were the ones who bought those lambs. Every time the wooden basketball was eaten, those lambs were the most troublesome, and the taste was not easy to taste.

"Yeah." Hongli's heart warmed, and he returned to the tent. Zarafin would always serve up hot meals.

A faint envy rose in Hongluo's heart, and he hoped that the female relatives in the future would have one like the fourth sister-in-law.

In fact, Zarafin felt that it was her job to prepare meals for Hongli on time, and she would definitely not be late.

"Greetings to Fourth Master!" Li Dequan came over in person, Hongli smiled wryly, and Huang Ama really came to ask for it.

"Ada, the whole lamb will be roasted in a while, and Gao Wuyong will send some to the imperial tent." Hongli couldn't help it, Kangxi always ate the taste of the grassland, and he was a little tired.

Li Dequan nodded in agreement and said, "Please trouble fourth master!"

Gao Wuyong lowered his head, among the people who were driving, some people didn't want to come over, but now, except for Kangxi, no one dared to come over to ask for it.

The two Hongli brothers sent Li Dequan away and went straight back to the tent.

Approaching the tent, Hongli found that Zarafin was wearing a green onion-colored black bamboo palace dress, with a curb on his head, and a set of golden bamboo hairpins made of Laokeng emerald pinned to it, with earrings on each ear. A green bamboo-shaped earring.

"Greetings to the Lord, greetings to the Thirteenth Lord!" Zarafin saw Hongli and Hongluo approaching from a distance, and she quickly bowed to say hello.

Hongli waved his hand, and the other female relatives basically greeted them in the tent, saying that they did not want to be seen by the Mongolian leaders, but Hongli smiled coldly, probably they woke up when the arena was over.

"Qike, didn't you stay in the tent?" Hongli had a slight smile on his face, but he was a little serious.

Zarafin looked around, she was waiting inside the encirclement, and the Mongolian princes had to pass through the encirclement of the guards if they wanted to get close to her.

"Master" Zarafin looked at him innocently.

In the palace, every time he came back, she would wait in the corridor, like a wife waiting for her husband to come home. Although Zarafin was not Fujin, he felt the warmth of someone waiting for him.

"Little sister-in-law, the afternoon tea is delicious!" Hong Lu said in a whisper.

In the past few days, Hongluo has been using the afternoon tea prepared by the tortoise shell, even so, it is more than the other princes.

"It's good to eat!" Zarafin said indifferently, those strawberries were all frozen, and they sweated even more after eating them.

Hongli walked directly into the tent, and she directly broke two cups of cold sour plum soup and placed them beside them.

"Master, I have prepared bath water. You and Thirteenth Master should take a bath first. Tortoise has notified Xiao Shunzi to bring Thirteenth Master's clothes." Zarafin watched the two of them drink the sour plum soup, still Sweating.

"Thirteen, let's go, little boy, the roasted whole lamb will be delivered to the front legs of the imperial tent, and some ribs." Hongli directly gave the order.

"Yes!" Zarafin agreed.

She was thinking about sending those parts to the imperial tent just now, but now that Hongli said it directly, she can feel more at ease.

Erlu was about to lift the leg of lamb directly behind his back, but was directly stopped by the tortoise shell.

"It's not enough for now, master still has a seasoning that hasn't been brushed." Tortoiseshell only took care of the semi-finished products.

Erlu was stunned, the roasted whole lamb in front of him was golden in color, exuding the aroma of human cumin and a touch of spicy taste.

Soon, Zarafin came over from the small dining room with a small jar and handed it to Turtle.

The roasted whole lamb on the campfire was brushed with a layer of dark brown sauce.

"Elu, please send the front legs and some ribs to the imperial tent. When you send them over, you must not leave the campfire." Zarafin specially made a stove for transportation. Legs and chops are cut and placed directly on the net.

Nourishing~
The mutton fell, and the sound came out along with the aroma, and Erlu was happy. Tonight, it must be good again.

In the tents of several princes, only Hongli's guards will not starve.

Zarafin explained a few things to pay attention to, and watched the mutton be sent away.

"Little boy, is dinner ready?" Hongli came out of the tent after washing himself with honeysuckle water.

Zarafin nodded with a smile on his face. Not far away, Gao Yang, who was directly caught, was still stubbornly supporting himself on the bonfire.

"Master, I sent it to the imperial tent." Zarafin was a little uneasy, and she must choose carefully when delivering things to Kangxi. Can her culinary skills be as good as Kangxi's?
Hongli nodded her forehead, she has always been cautious, doing better than other Gege, Ruuo, if she is more confident, it is considered the best.

The female relatives in the backyard are as indifferent as Zarafin, probably there will be no more Gongdou.

"Let's go, Shisan should have finished washing up." Hongli looked not far away, and the tents of several princes began to serve dinner one after another.

The two walked into the dining room one after the other. Various mixed vegetables were already placed on the dining table. In the middle, there was the dismembered lamb just now. On the far side of the dining table, lo mein was also placed. The round belly pot, Hongli will use lo mein every time it is hot.

This time, for Hongluo, I also specially prepared a sauce that children like very much.

Hongluo came out of the bathroom, sat in front of the dining table, and found that there were a lot of green vegetables on the dining table, his eyes lit up.

When they arrived at the grassland, green vegetables were rarely transported, and even Huang Ama's dining table rarely had so much greenery.

"Little sister-in-law, are these edible?" Hongluo observed carefully, and they were basically wild vegetables.

Zarafin nodded, these wild vegetables were discarded by the imperial cooks, probably they couldn't be put on the table.

"Fourth brother, do you want to send it over there?" Hongluo also understood that some things cannot appear in front of Long Live Lord.
