Tobero

The two ladies, who were both a little older, were worthy of being the generals, and they set off early the next morning.

With a wave of his little hand, Tu Hao took Tu Ying with him and headed towards Xiaozhuang in the suburbs of Beijing.

Grandma Ye brought a big girl close to her.

Aunt Zhang's family brought a three-year-old daughter with her, and she was accompanied by a big girl and a nanny.

In addition, there is a team of soldiers dressed as guards following behind.

As far as the identities of the few people in the carriage are concerned, this lineup is so simple that it couldn't be simpler.

Tu Hao greeted Grandma Ye, Zhang's aunt, and Zhang's little sister, and sat in his carriage.

Zhang Xiaozi's summer, the weather has started to be hot, and she has been wilting for a month.The child lost a lot of weight, and the tip of his chin protruded.

"I heard that it was a summer escape, so I took my little daughter out." Zhang's aunt, the current empress, expressed her relief at the fact that the emperor's husband was rarely able to do something reliable.

Naturally, the royal family also has a place to escape the summer heat, but God knows that the temperature in that place is not much worse than that of the capital in the past few years. Every time there is a guard of honor to go there, the road has to be tossed for more than half a month.Those who have been wasting people and money along the way have not gone for the past two years.

She knew about the butcher, he was quite reliable, and his son must be not bad either.

Tu Hao has experience in Yan Xia.There are too many people going up and down the Tu family.Whoever made the head of the Tu family was a standard frail scholar.When the weather is hot, there is no smell of meat, and I am obviously hungry, so I stuff a little cat food all day long.

There is lukewarm chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea on the carriage. Tu Ying likes to add a little rock sugar. It is a good thing for clearing fire and improving eyesight. The taste is also suitable for women and children.Not much, one cup of tea per person.

Tu Ying filled the bamboo tubes according to the number of people, and gave one bamboo tube to the driver and the soldiers.

Followed by a small bowl of shredded mushroom and shredded chicken porridge, the bowl is not much bigger than an egg, and it only takes three teaspoons to fill it up.

Tu Hao didn't give it.

Zhang Xiaomei's mouth pouted.

Tu Hao fished out a watermelon from a bucket on the side. The melon was also small, not as big as a soup bowl.Tu Hao never liked to slice watermelon, he just split it into two pieces, and each person dug and ate it with a spoon.

Zhang Xiaomei was happy, holding a small silver spoon, eating with a smile on her face.It's a pity that she has big eyes and small belly, and she can't eat after digging a few spoonfuls.

Tu Hao wouldn't let her eat more, it's not good for a child to eat too much cold food, be careful of diarrhea.

Tu Hao took his little friend to wash his hands, and began to talk to her: "Now go to Zhuangzi, and you can eat lotus pods. The lotus seeds are delicious!"

The little friend wrinkled her nose: "Lotus seeds are not tasty, and Nier doesn't like them." The little friend's nickname is Nier.

Tu Hao continued to talk: "Ni'er must have never eaten the freshly picked ones, they are so tender and sweet!"

Nier glanced at him suspiciously: "Really?"

"Of course it is true. There are also freshly dug lotus roots, the tender ones are eaten raw, just the small part on the tip; the leftover old ones are eaten in stir-fried vegetables." He gestured to the appearance of the lotus root as he spoke.

"Nier can't eat stir-fried vegetables."

"Do you want to eat sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root? Cut off the top of the lotus root joint, fill it with glutinous rice, seal the lid with a stick, and steam it on high heat. Eat sliced, poured osmanthus honey... lotus leaf rice is also delicious, really, brother no Lie to you. My brother took you to catch small fish and fry small fish paste. My brother told you that there is a man named Aunt Liu in Zhuangzi, and the fried small fish sauce is delicious! Mrs. Hua’s kimchi is also delicious, you definitely I haven't eaten!"

The carriage grunted and moved forward during Tu Hao's food lecture.Before arriving at Zhuangzi, Grandma Ye and Aunt Zhang's impression of Zhuangzi was stamped with "a lot of delicious food".

"Ni'er come over in autumn, my brother treats you to eat chrysanthemum crab! You can also touch snails and catch loach. Have you ever eaten loach tofu?"

As a result, all the people in the car were hungry before reaching the ground.

Simply, Zhuangzi is in the suburbs of Beijing, not far away.

Before getting out of the carriage, a burst of coolness blew in.

Tu Ying simply pulled up the tulle curtain.

The lotus flowers reflecting the sun, and the lotus leaves spread out one after another like the sky, and the rare scenery of the water village in the north ran into the eyes of the two boudoir women without any buffer.

All the main roads into Zhuangzi have been repaired and are very smooth.The road is slightly narrow and can only accommodate two carriages in parallel.But whose Zhuangzi is not a dirt road, can it be built like this?

Both sides of the road were full of trees, and Grandma Ye couldn't recognize them, so she asked, "What are these?"

Tu Ying said: "It's camphor. This kind of tree is good on the roadside. It doesn't like to grow insects very much, so it doesn't need to be taken care of. The wood can also prevent moths. The cabinets in the village are all made of camphor wood. Grandma and aunt look at it. If you like it, you can ask the carpenter to make two sets and send it back. If you don’t like it, you can just take small pieces of wood and put them in the cabinet.”

The two of them didn't speak, and there were smiles in the corners of their mouths and eyes.

Ni'er didn't know what mother and Grandma Ye were happy about, but it didn't prevent her from laughing along with her.

Looking at it, Tu Hao felt itchy in his heart, wishing he could take a sip, put it in his arms and rub it well, his daughter is so cute!

Xiaozhuang is called Xiaozhuang, but the area is not small.Surrounded by mountains and rivers, and surrounded by hills on both sides, they were successively bought by Tu Yingquan.There is only one Zhuangzi in such a big place, which has the meaning of a paradise.

Zhuanghu is not like other Zhuangzi, one family here, one family there.The houses are all planned uniformly, horizontally and vertically.Houses, roads, barns, vegetable gardens, warehouses, small squares, reserved land, clean and tidy.

The carriage turned around the houses where the farmers lived together, and Tu Hao's pirated Jiangnan garden buildings came into view.

The construction area is not large, but there is no shortage of pavilions.

The garden has drawn running water, raised a few koi carps, and planted a few water lilies instead of lotuses. The petals of white to yellowish green are light and shallow, and when I look down, I feel that the irritability in my heart has been reduced by three points.

The whole garden maintains a uniform style of blue bricks and black tiles.Aunt Zhang's family was used to seeing the carved beams and painted buildings in the palace, and only thought the garden was very simple and elegant.

Tu Ying led a group of people through the veranda, across the curved bridge, and arrived at a two-story house.

Aunt Zhang's family is fine, but poor Grandma Ye's mother-in-law's family is all generals, and the houses in the house are all in a unified *style. Suddenly seeing this graceful scene to the extreme, I just feel that my eyes are not enough to see it.

Tu Ying asked Grandma Ye to choose a room, and only after calling three times, Grandma Ye heard.

"Huniu, grandma really wants to live here and won't leave!"

Tu Ying's nickname is Huniu, and she really lives up to her name, and the tigress can be expected in the future.

Tu Ying led people to introduce the various facilities in the building, and said: "That's impossible. If you stay here, grandma, grandpa will definitely beat me. Grandpa is so fierce!"

Grandma Ye smiled and patted Tu Ying's hand.

Tu Ying continued: "Grandma, don't look at the exquisiteness of this place. In fact, it's cool in summer, and you can live there for a few days. This place is humid, so it's not suitable for permanent residence. If you like it, when the weather is cooler, there will be warm soup on the mountain." Pao, let’s live directly on the mountain. Tomorrow, I’ll take you up the mountain to play.”

Ni'er blinked her eyes and said, "My brother said that there are pears on the mountain to eat."

Tu Ying nodded: "Yes, there should be some pears you can eat these two days. My sister will make you pears in sugar water, and you can eat them with well water. It's delicious." My sister is still good, but my brother is too cruel!

Grandma Ye poked Tu Ying lightly on the forehead: "How come you are like your brother, you can't say anything about food. What if the family is not full?"

Tu Ying smiled and said: "Food is the paramount necessity of the people!" She turned to Zhang's aunt and said, "Auntie, you don't know that little mouse, that crazy boy, planted several pear trees on the top of the mountain. There are so many pears that you can eat them all." I can’t finish it. It’s really beautiful in spring, and the pear blossoms are all over the mountains and plains, snow-white.”

Grandma Ye poked Tu Ying's forehead again: "Crazy? Did you say that about your brother?"

After a while, several people chose the room amidst Tu Ying's laughter.Tu Ying led them to the dining room.

The staple food is lotus leaf rice. There is nothing added to the rice, just rice, which highlights the fragrance of lotus leaf.

Scallop and winter melon soup, scrambled eggs with loofah, white meat with garlic paste, pickled eggplant, cucumber, simple four dishes and one soup.It is incomparable to the meals carefully cooked by the cooks at home, but a table of people eats deliciously.

Brother Bing and the coachmen ate a little coarser. In addition to the same lotus leaf rice, there were fist-sized steamed buns, a big pot of braised pork, and a big pot of winter melon soup.

Ni'er was still a little sick, and couldn't eat after two mouthfuls.Aunt Zhang's family is already very satisfied. Since the beginning of summer, the child often eats some rice soup.

Tu Hao served a small bowl of soup: "Drink the soup, and later my brother will teach you how to make winter melon wontons, and mix some mushrooms in the winter melon stuffing. Nier likes mushrooms, right? Didn't we eat shredded chicken porridge with mushrooms in the morning?" !"

Nier recalled the taste of the porridge in the morning, and nodded: "Nier wants to eat sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root."

Tu Hao said: "I'm already working on it, so I'll have something to eat tonight."

Tu Hao watched Ni'er sip the soup by herself and said with a smile, "Good boy. Let's take a nap at noon, and brother will take you fishing in the afternoon."

Nier nodded heavily: "Yes!"

Aunt Zhang's family sighed: "Little mouse, you are better at coaxing children than a mother like me!"

Grandma Ye sneered: "You don't know. My grandson only cares about girls. Look at his sister, she is six years older than him. But he raises his sister as a daughter."

"Grandma!" The grandson and granddaughter were ashamed and angry at the same time!

Grandma Ye completely ignored her, and continued to reveal her grandson's background: "Last year, the twins of your brother-in-law's family came to play at your house. The boy came back crying, and the girl came back smiling. This is more than once!" When I went to Uncle Tu's house, I had an extreme reaction. The boys feared him like a tiger, and the girls wished they could just adopt him.

Tu Hao turned his head and muttered, "Boys look like monkeys, girls are so fun."

The "skinned like a monkey" girl, Tu Ying, lowered her head and concentrated on grilling the rice, leaning against her grandmother, really afraid that her younger brother would turn on the teaching mode and hit her directly when he got angry.

After lunch, we will take a lunch break, and after the lunch break, we will play like crazy.

Going up and down the mountain, digging crab holes, picking fruit, fishing, picking lotus pods, rowing...

Tu Hao also took his children to grow vegetables and write observation logs.Tu Hao didn't catch any of them. Tu Ying took the children to catch loaches, dig earthworms, and catch frogs.

Aunt Zhang and Grandma Ye also learned how to cook farm dishes from the peasant women.

I don't know if Auntie Hua would faint from excitement if she knew that the "Sister Zhang" and "Auntie Ye" who learned how to make kimchi from her were the current Empress Empress and Mrs. Yipin Gaoming?

A group of people couldn't think of Shu, and the original three-day itinerary was postponed to seven days, and then extended to half a month. Seeing that they would live for a full month, several people reluctantly went back.
