Chapter 122
Chapter 122
Ji Zong came out from Zhen Gongli and went directly to Yu Xumo's room. Although both of them were in the backyard, the rooms were far apart.Kiiden, who came first with Mamiya Ri, naturally chose the most upright position.But Ji Zong liked the tea room in Jiyi Hall, and she didn't pay much attention to where she lived, so she chose a location close to the front yard, and Yu Xumo also chose a Japanese room nearby.
If you want to say first come, first served, or fairness, in fact, sometimes, it is not so absolute.There is a saying that goes well, it is better to come early than to be coincidental.
It is already April, and Edo is gradually getting warmer.The building is not as simple as when living in a longhouse, but at this time of year, people still need to burn charcoal or wear cotton-padded clothes.Yu Xumo was ready to sleep, but the flat bedding still showed that he was waiting for Jizong.When Ji Zong entered the room, his footsteps were very light. Yu Xumo was sitting on his knees at the window looking out. There was no moon today, and it was so dark that he didn't know what he was looking at.
"Mei?" Ji Zong suddenly called him with some uncertainty, and the latter turned his head with a smile on his face.Ji Zong was finally relieved, and also smiled.She sat down cross-legged, put her head on Xuma's shoulder, and whispered, "I'm back." After hearing this, Yu Xumo's nose felt a little sore.
"Can we have dinner?" Ji Zong was afraid that he would not be there, but Yu Xumo was just worried and didn't care about eating.Moreover, the two of them are used to eating and living together, their bodies are like a clock, and they feel what they should do, conditioned reflex.
Yu Xumo lowered his eyes and said, "Yes."
"Well, did you eat it, or haven't you?" Ji Zong laughed angrily. At first, he just thought it was a joke when he said such perfunctory words, but it was not too funny when he was really on the scene.Yu Xumo looked at her, pursed his lips, sighed, and surrendered, "I didn't eat."
Ji Zong was a little speechless, since Yu Xumo is such an adult, she might as well take care of herself. "No matter what happens, don't delay eating or sleeping. After all, your body is your own. Even if I make you very angry in the future, it will be the same."
"Why are you making me angry?" Yu Xumo chuckled and asked her with a smile.Ji Zong was speechless all of a sudden, why did he grab this sentence, her point is not here, okay?I wanted to appease him, but now I dig a hole and bury myself.
"Cough, I really don't think I'm too full, why don't you eat some more with me." First, I was afraid that Yu Xumo would not eat any more; second, I felt a little guilty, as if I wanted to cheat; The relationship between Zhen Gongli's people and the kitchen must not be very harmonious, and I don't know what A Si and A Duan said. She obviously likes light food, but the kitchen actually brought a lot of meat.Rich is rich, but too greasy, not Ji Zong's usual eating habits.She ate it in the spirit of no leftovers, but now it still feels very greasy.Not to mention greasy, but also always feel a little empty.
Yu Xumo said softly, "Then I'll go to the kitchen by myself, so that they don't understand and won't be misunderstood over there. I really think you didn't have enough to eat with him, and you came back with my stomach to eat with you." , Get up and go out.
"Wear a haori!" Ji Zong yelled at him, Yu Xumo stopped, took the haori hanging on the shelf, wrapped it around his body, walked to the door, turned and smiled at Ji Zong.Ji Zong suddenly felt numb, as if he had been shocked.In Xu Mo's eyes, I don't know when, a kind of amorous feelings emerged.Unlike the original feeling of high and cold, it seems to be alive.Is he very satisfied that he came back to eat with him?Ji Zong scratched his head and thought.
Yu Xumo came back not long after, Ji Zong moved his nose and smelled a scent of rice.On the small tray, there were only two bowls of white rice and a few small plates. What satisfied Ji Zong most was a jug of wine.She likes to drink, especially warm sake.The current sake is not as clear as modern sake, but it also has a rich and mellow taste.She likes it very much, but she is afraid of causing trouble if she drinks too much, so most of the time she drinks lightly and is very controlled.
Ji Zong automatically brought a short table over, put it on the side of the bed, lifted the quilt, patted it, and signaled Yu Suma to sit on the hot bed.This didn't match the education Yu Xumo had received, but he was really cold after going out this trip.Glancing at Ji Zong, he put the tray on the low table and went to boil a pot of water.He usually has the habit of drinking tea, so there are always objects for boiling water and drinking tea in the house.
Ji Zong likes to watch Yu Suma busy, as if he has returned to the time when he lived in the longhouse.I don't know why, but she didn't live in the longhouse for a long time, and her relationship with Yu Xuma was not so familiar at that time.However, when she was alone with Yu Suma, she would always think of that time.Perhaps, at that time, the simplest, so happy.
Yu Xumo turned around with the brewed tea in hand, just in time to see Ji Zong touching the wine pot, and secretly lifted the cup with the other hand to smell the fragrance.He is angry and funny, Ji Zong's little hobby is very inconsistent with her usual indifference, and she looks cute.Therefore, although he doesn't like her drinking too much, he also likes to warm her up from time to time.This feeling is very complicated, and I am afraid that it will be bad for her to drink too much, but I also know that she likes to drink and want to spoil her.
Ji Zong was a little embarrassed when he saw that his behavior was caught by Yu Xumo, so he quickly sat upright and waited for Yu Xumo.Yu Xumo didn't sit on the quilt, but knelt and sat opposite Jizong.In one bowl, he put a pickled plum; in the other bowl, he put a foot of lard, dripped a few drops of soy sauce on it, and picked some rice with chopsticks to cover it.By the way, I poured some freshly brewed hot tea into the plum rice, and the hot tea poured in along the side of the bowl, until it reached the seven-point part of the rice.Green tea soup, white rice, bright red plums.Ji Zong was not very greedy, but his mouth still secreted a lot of liquid.She swallowed her saliva, just like Suma was pouring tea soup into another bowl for eating together, she suddenly felt very hungry.
Yu Suma did not pour tea soup into the oiled rice, but lightly accompanied it with chopsticks, the aroma of soy sauce and lard permeated, and the rice turned into a shiny light brown color.Seeing that Ji Zong's saliva was about to flow out, Yu Xumo smiled with satisfaction.He poured wine for Ji Zong, the temperature was just right.He also pulled back the quilt and sat down next to Ji Zong, and the two of them served simple meals side by side on the low table.
Ji Zong took a sip of the wine first, aftertaste for a while, and then picked up the rice with plums that she often eats.Paofan can be said to be a specialty of Edo, and the common people love it most. Because firewood and charcoal are expensive, even if everyone eats two meals a day, it is impossible to open fire twice.Most of the day's meals are finished in the morning, but the second meal is cold, so everyone uses water to make rice. The soup is too extravagant, the water is too light, and the tea is just right.This was Ji Zong's favorite food when he was in the longhouse. It must be said that Yu Xumo was quite sure about her preferences.
Hard rice, hot tea, and sour plums, Ji Zong never gets tired of eating.However, today, looking at Yu Xumo's food, she felt a little greedy.Usually, he doesn't eat such greasy things, and lard seems to be a bit out of class.However, seeing Yu Sumo eating mouthfuls, although she was also very elegant, but eating much faster than usual, she felt that it seemed delicious.
"I want to taste yours." She was suddenly embarrassed with her chopsticks in her mouth.Yu Xumo stopped and looked at her in surprise.In this day and age in Japan, there is still a meal-sharing system. Everyone basically does not eat at the same table, let alone use a bowl.However, looking at Ji Zong's troubled eyes, Yu Xumo smiled and put the bowl to her mouth.Ji Zong took a bite with his chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth.Well, salty and fragrant, really delicious.She ate a few more mouthfuls before she remembered that it was Yu Xumo who didn't eat dinner, not herself.A little embarrassed, he handed his own rice to Yu Suma, and said in a low voice, "You eat too, try it."
Yu Xumo put down his own bowl, took it, took two mouthfuls, it was really good, no wonder Ji Zong never tired of eating it.The two simply put the bowls on the low table, sat on the mattress, covered with a quilt, and almost lay down on the low table, and took turns eating the two bowls of rice.You bite me and I eat sweetly.
At night, when Sanlang Zuo, who was patrolling the secret sentry, saw this scene on the tree, his foot slipped and he almost fell off the tree.Are these two playing house?Having such a happy meal, San Langzuo's mind flooded with the image of a broken child playing with mud on the side of the street.Just like the two of them are now, silly and happy.The two are obviously husband and wife, and there is no moon at night, so it's not good to do something, they have to have a house wine.However, just looking at the background can also feel the happiness of the two.
San Langzuo conveniently folded a tree branch and put it in his mouth, the corners of his mouth were raised slightly, it is not cold at all tonight, and his whole body is warm.But, for some reason, I was hungry again.He reached out to touch his stomach, thinking about going to the back kitchen to find something to eat.
In the imperial city, a group of people sent off the emperor's special envoy grandly.
"This time, thank you for your hard work." The general representing the imperial platform comforted Shimazu Tsuitoyo.The latter returned the salute respectfully, not even daring to say it.Yu Taisuo looked at Zhu with a sneer, then at the team that was drifting away, and also frowned.This time, Prince Arisukawa Masahito still didn't mention when he would marry Zhu, he looked at the general, and the general felt something in his heart, knowing tacitly what was going on with Jin Weixi.He also frowned. It seems that the royal family still has not stopped thinking about "returning the great government".Originally, they wanted to put another nail in the royal family, but they didn't know that the other party left the engaged bamboo in Da'ao for so long.
Thinking about what Prince Arisugawa Miya Masahin did during his stay in the imperial castle, and the words she asked, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.This man's heart is really big, but what kind of beneficial news can he bring her an outdated adopted son?Moreover, why should he tell her that if she talks too much, she won't come to take him out of Da Ao.Fortunately, I still have a pair of skins, Zhu pulled the gorgeous feathers, and thanked my parents again in my heart.
Shimadzu Jifeng lowered his head from the side, raised his eyes slightly, and looked at Zhu's expression all over.This Mr. Zhu has a good skin, fortunately and unfortunately.This time, Prince Masahito Arikawa still didn't take him away, as long as he still made a grand oath, then he would have a chance to avenge his "recommendation".Thinking about the red account book that was brought up with her hands and face black, the fire that was simmering in her heart became even hotter.
Zhu sensed Shimadzu Tsutsuyoshi's gaze, gave her a sideways glance, turned and left.
The author has something to say: Returning the Great Government: Refers to the shogunate returning power to the imperial family.I hope it can be done with diplomacy without firing!However, in the end, there was indeed such a general who followed the trend of the times to save the people from the suffering of war. No. 15th generation general Tokugawa Yoshiki, there are always such people in history.very impressive.
Hands-on: Chancellor of the Exchequer
