see you tonight princess

After Xia Lusi signed the painting and pledged to buy Jinmei Academy that day, Zheng San didn't dare to make things difficult when he got the money, and honestly handed over the land deed, IOU and Fang Cuijiao's deed of sale to Xia Lusi .

What did the Academy of Fine Arts buy it for?There are also a group of girls who had a hard time gaining a foothold in this era. Now that they have no livelihood, how should they be settled.

Naturally, the Golden Academy of Fine Arts cannot be reopened. Although it is legal in this era, Xia Lusi is a modern law enforcer after all.

Just when she met her powerful minister father in the small courtyard of the bamboo forest in the outskirts of the city, Xiao Zhuzi hinted that the royal family spent a lot of money on food and clothing.Xia Mengfu sent a hundred taels of gold in the name of winter filial piety to the eldest princess.

Xia Lu thought for a while, and immediately sent Xiao Zhuzi to carry the box of gold. She fumbled the door and ran to the mansion of the minister of the Ministry of Industry.

The son-in-law does not have an official position, but has a high status, the minister of the Ministry of Industry did not dare to neglect, invited Xia Lvsi to sit in the room, and laughed and coaxed this idiot son-in-law who is said to behave like a three-year-old child and is very naughty: "I don't know why the son-in-law is here? "

Xia Lvsi said with a smile: "I heard that the Minister's Ministry of Industry is in charge of engineering repairs and building construction. I don't know if you can handle decoration."

"Uh, what do you mean by decoration?" asked the minister of the Ministry of Industry.

Good guy, the Ministry of Industry in an ancient country is equivalent to the modern Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development.Xia Lusi ran to the house of the minister of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development in a big way, and asked someone to give her a decoration!

"The decoration is, I have a first floor, the outside does not move, and the floors and walls of the rooms in the building, including carved beams and painted buildings, decorations, etc., are repaired and replaced by me, which is better than the gorgeous decoration style in Zhaoyang Palace~" Xia Lusi smiled.

"Here, what is the decoration style?" The minister of the Ministry of Industry asked another new word.

"The decoration style is the style of the drawing. You find a skilled craftsman to draw the style of the construction for me. I am satisfied with it, and then compare it to the construction."

"That's how it is. First draw the picture, then compare the construction, and only repair the inside but not the outside." The minister of the Ministry of Industry nodded.

"Although the outside is not repaired, it is always necessary to paint it with red lacquer and white ash." Xia Lvsi said.

"Oh, then we have to put up scaffolding." The minister of the Ministry of Industry began to "simulate" building the house with Xia Lusi back and forth.

Xia Lusi grinned: "I want it. But, after setting up the scaffolding, I will surround the whole building with yellow coarse cloth."

"Hiss," the minister of the Ministry of Industry was surprised, "what's the meaning of this?"

"Firstly, it's for safety, so that the mortar and gravel don't fall and hit passers-by and deface the street. Besides, it's fun to surround it, and it's not interesting to tear down the diorama," said Xia Lvsi.

"Uh, then, what is a diorama?" the minister of the Ministry of Industry asked again.

"Haha." Xia Lusi laughed loudly: "It's just a wooden box with a small hole on it. If you look in, you can see thousands of worlds and various beautiful scenery in it. It's unpredictable and wonderful."

The minister of the Ministry of Industry twitched his beard and smiled: "Wonderful, the diorama is such a miraculous thing. In addition, the son-in-law repairs the house only on the inside, the decoration also needs to be styled, and the outside of the building is surrounded by coarse cloth. It is really unheard of. It is really wonderful." Ya."

"That's wonderful. Then I'm here to ask your lord to send someone to help me with this matter." Xia Lvsi carried the small box of gold over and said, "Please, my lord. This money will be transferred to this matter, and the rest will be given to my lord. Is it enough?"

The servant of the Ministry of Industry laughed: "That's enough."

Xiao Zhuzi secretly sighed in his heart, the son of our family is really a god and man, but he is really good at playing, and when he got a lot of money, he always disappeared without heat.The children of other aristocratic families are really inferior, none of them can be as pretentious as our family's children!

It was already afternoon when Xia Lusi finished his work, and when he was riding his horse back to Rongqiu Palace, he saw children playing with fireworks at the corner of the street, laughing at the chasing and romping.Xia Lvsi asked: "Children are so happy, is it New Year's Day?"

"Today's winter solstice, Shizi will go back to Xiao Zhuzi to prepare something delicious for you." Xiao Zhuzi coaxed her with a smile as before.

Xia Lvsi also smiled: "Winter Solstice, don't you want to eat glutinous rice balls? Let's go back and make glutinous rice balls."

After returning to Rongqiu Palace, Xia Lvsi recruited cooks and cooks to make glutinous rice balls, but everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

"What are glutinous rice balls?" asked the chef of Rongqiu Palace.

"Hmm," Xia Lvsi touched his chin.Tangyuan appeared in the Song Dynasty, and the current Southern Dian Kingdom was probably in the Song Dynasty. It is not surprising that the chefs in the palace did not know about Tangyuan.

Xia Lvsi smiled: "Then let's make a different glutinous rice ball today."

Rongqiu Palace supplies five liters of fresh milk every day. Xia Lusi sent someone to boil part of the fresh milk on a low fire first. One liter of fresh milk boiled into a small bowl. Xia Lusi said that it was called condensed milk.

The condensed milk is full of milk fragrance, and when the chopsticks are dipped, the thickened condensed milk can pull out the filaments of milk fragrance.But Xia Lusi said that this is just an ingredient.

She steamed red sweet potatoes and purple sweet potatoes, peeled them and pressed them into puree.Mix mashed potatoes with condensed milk and knead into small balls.

Finally, put the remaining fresh milk in a large clean ceramic basin, put the large basin in ice water, and start stirring.Stir and stir, the milk gradually becomes layered, the upper layer becomes viscous, and finally slowly solidifies.

Little Zhuzi felt distressed, and said, "Is this milk spoiled?"

Xia Lvsi tapped him with a bamboo shovel: "What nonsense? This is where the essence lies. The top layer is called cream. Take it up, wrap it in fine gauze and squeeze some water gently, and you will get some creamy cream. cream."

"Use this cream to form a small ball, wrap the condensed milk and mashed potatoes on the outside, and then form a small ball." Xia Lvsi said.

The chef praised: "This pastry is really fresh, I feel like I can eat a hundred or eighty of these meatballs."

Xia Lusi smiled: "It's not over yet, it's just stuffing. The stuffing is wrapped with glutinous rice flour and made into a glutinous rice ball. This is glutinous rice balls."

Everyone felt novelty, after the glutinous rice balls were ready.A sweet soup was cooked with ginger and brown sugar.The round, snow-white glutinous rice balls float up and down in the ginger brown sugar water, and the last ones float tenderly in the sugar water.

On the evening of the winter solstice, put it steaming hot in a ceramic bowl, drink a sip of sugar water, slightly sweet and slightly gingery, and warm from the stomach in winter.With a plain white ceramic spoon, scoop up a glutinous rice ball, take a bite, the soft and sticky white glutinous rice, and the purple sweet potato mash, with a mass of melted cream in the center, and it flows out slowly after one bite .

Mouth-full of sweetness, rich taste, and strong milky aroma, it makes people feel full of happiness.

The materials were rare, so a dozen of them were made, and everyone got one, and they all said, "I can't bear to swallow it."

Xia Lvsi smiled, and asked someone to prepare a purple sand soup cup early in the morning, carefully filled it with ginger syrup and six glutinous rice balls, put it in a rattan basket, and hurried to the Scarlet Smoke Pavilion.

At this time, not long after Duan Lingge came back from the Spring Shou Palace, she was in a bad mood and locked herself in the study alone, even chasing Xiao'e and Lan Mo away.

When Xia Lusi came to look for her, Xiao'e was at the gate of the Feiyan Pavilion courtyard, preventing Xia Lusi from entering.Xia Lvsi said: "Sister Xiao'e let me in, and I'll deliver glutinous rice balls to the princess' wife."

Xiao'e murmured, "His Royal Highness is in a bad mood. She doesn't even eat any food. What else do you want to eat? Tangyuan?"

Xia Lvsi frowned upon hearing this: "I'll go find her."

After she finished speaking, she raised her legs and walked in, knocked on the door in front of Duan Lingge's study and went in.

"No rules! I told you not to come in and disturb me." Duan Lingge turned his back to the door and looked out the window with a cold voice.

"Lingge, it's me." Xia Lvsi walked to the little square table in front of Duan Lingge, and put down the rattan basket.

When Duan Lingge saw that it was Xia Lusi, she was shocked, annoyed, and ashamed, and all kinds of emotions came to her at the same time, her heart skipped a beat, and her expression became even colder.She turned her face away.

Oh, it seems that I'm in a bad mood, Bingshan Beauty's temperament is a bit more deserted than usual.Xia Lvsi smiled good-naturedly, "If you don't want to talk about something that bothers you, let me tell you. Today is the winter solstice. Let me tell you, I used to eat dumplings in the north and glutinous rice balls in the south during the winter solstice. Everyone doesn't know about glutinous rice balls. What was it, and I did it."

"This glutinous rice balls are sweet, I know you like sweet ones." Xia Lvsi showed her eight white teeth with a bright smile, "It's delicious, I specially made six small ones myself, so that you can eat one at a time, The temperature is just right now, and I've been taking care of it all the way, so it's neither hot nor cold. You can eat one."

Duan Lingge is in a very bad mood at the moment. In the past, she might have driven him away.But Xia Lvsi squatted in front of her, her sparkling eyes, and the way she raised the corners of her mouth without any thought, made people really...

"I don't want to eat, please take care of yourself. You can go back." Duan Lingge lowered her eyes and said softly.

Hey, I don't eat rice, I don't eat glutinous rice balls, I don't eat anything at all.Xia Lusi became stubborn. She scooped one up with a spoon and insisted on handing it to Duan Lingge's lips: "Eat one. If you don't like one, don't force it. How can you not eat anything?"

"You—" Duan Lingge bit her lip, and said angrily, "It's so unreasonable! Didn't I just say that..."

How could Duan Lingge expect it? Some people are not afraid of death, not her.She was blaming her, but the man didn't back away in fright, but insisted on feeding the food into her mouth, so that Duan Lingge didn't check for a while, so he had to take the glutinous rice ball into his mouth.

"Hmm~" Duan Lingge helplessly covered her lips with her sleeve.

Xia Lvsi smiled: "You ate it! My God, this is the first time that I have given you so many delicious food to give you a bite."

This is true, it's not easy to get angry, Duan Lingge can't blame anything.

"You should eat more. When you are unhappy, eat something sweet and your mood will improve. This is not my nonsense, it has scientific basis."

"I've already eaten." Duan Lingge wiped the corners of his mouth with a silk handkerchief, and it was obvious that Wuxin was talking too much to her.

Xia Lusi squatted in front of the short table, resting her chin on her hands and looking at Duan Lingge's beautiful and cold face.Neither of them spoke, not in an awkward silence, but rather inexplicably ambiguous. Duan Lingge looked down at her, their eyes met, Xia Lvsi blushed.

"I, I'll go back first. Save this for dinner, and have a good dinner." Xia Lvsi stood up, carrying a small rattan basket, and hurried away.

Duan Lingge sat quietly, silently raising her head and closing her eyes to take a deep breath, feeling restless and depressed, she stood up and walked to the desk, filled a glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp. ?
