Chapter 34 Lily and Lotus Seed Soup

King Yantao of Qi asked Lieutenant Qiao to sell bean sprouts. Ji Rongjin was not familiar with him, and of course he would not meddle in such nosy matters. He closed the door and refused to understand even if he cried like a wolf or a wolf.

With money and a house, there are no worries in life. Ji Rongjin is sitting in the small yard, sorting the vegetable patch, taking care of the flowers, or cooking delicious food. The idyllic life is simply not too happy.

August is when the human body's yang energy gradually disappears and the yin energy begins to rise. Moreover, there is still residual heat from the summer heat at this time, so the diet in August is best to eat more foods that can relieve the residual heat.

For women, lily and lotus seed soup is indispensable. Soak the lilies in water overnight and rinse them. Soak the lotus seeds for three to four hours and rinse them. Put the lilies and lotus seeds in a pot of water, bring to a boil over high heat, add rock sugar, and reduce to a simmer.

Cook for half an hour and serve.

After working on the small vegetable garden in the afternoon, I sat on the porch to enjoy the breeze and had a bowl of lily and lotus seed soup, which calmed the mind and nourished the heart, strengthened the spleen and stomach, was both delicious and nourishing, what’s not to like!

Staying at home, you can't eat too much, and you can't satisfy your cravings. Stir-fried shredded pork with wild rice, 60-year-old vermicelli, mapo tofu, and kelp soup cooked with big winter melon picked in the yard. It can control your weight and satisfy your cravings in a delicious way.

.

Ji Rongjin could stay at home and not go out if he didn't need food and supplies. Unfortunately, if it was just that, as long as people needed to eat, drink and relieve themselves, they really had to go out.

It was not until five days later that Captain Qiao, who had no hope, finally knocked on the door again, that Ji Rongjin dared to go out. Unexpectedly, he was caught as soon as he left the alley.

"You..." The stubborn iron tower man actually knew how to beat around the bush, "Okay!" Ji Rongjin was angry and funny.

Lieutenant Qiao touched the greasy head of his head and was as shy as a young boy: "Husband... Madam, you are finally willing to come out."

Before Ji Rongjin had time to make fun of Captain Qiao, a luxurious carriage parked on the side of the street, and the noble young master got out of it. When she saw the person clearly, her smiling face cooled down, and she felt blessed. After saluting, she went out without caring about the noble young master.

At the entrance of the alley, we entered the street.

Aunt Guo, holding a basket in her arms, bowed to the noble master cautiously and hurriedly caught up with her young master.

The Eighth Prince Yan Chen raised his distant eyebrows high and said to her back: "Mrs. Ji, aren't you afraid that I will punish you for the crime of disrespect?"

This guy is really capable of doing this kind of thing. Ji Rongjin stopped, turned around, and said with a smile: "I wonder why His Majesty the King of Wei is looking for a common girl?"

"The weather is hot, I'll take you to the lake."

No way! Ji Rongjin looked at him as if he had seen a ghost, "Your Highness, do you know what you are talking about?" She was the "outer wife" of King Qi, shouldn't he avoid suspicion?

Wei Wang Yanchen seemed to have read through her thoughts, "The sky is clear and the sun is bright, and I am swimming in the lake."

Oh, he also knows that the sky is clear and the sun is clear now. Ji Rongjin smiled coldly in his heart and faked a smile on his face, "Thank you for your kindness, your highness. The daughter of the people still has things to do."

Yan Chen raised his feet and came up.

What does this guy want to do? Ji Rongjin's alarm bells rang loudly. She used to refuse to understand him at the morning tea shop because of his work, but now? His brain was spinning rapidly, and his eyes inadvertently glanced to the opposite side.

Lieutenant Qiao stood tall and tall on the roadside like a wooden pile. Ji Rongjin was so angry that he cursed secretly, "People have come to seduce your master's "outer wife", why are you still standing like a fool? You deserve to be miserable in this life."

Ji Rongjin suddenly found an excuse, "I made an appointment with Captain Qiao to go to the bean sprout shop."

It was finally his turn. Lieutenant Qiao was so happy that he quickly stood beside Ji Rongjin, "Madam, let's hurry up." After saying that, he clasped his fists towards the King of Wei, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I'll take my wife first."

.”

After saying that, no matter what the Eighth Prince's expression was, he hugged Ji Rongjin and left the Eighth Prince's sight.

Wei Wang Yanchen stood at the intersection for a long time without moving, staring at the back of the person leaving without moving.

The attendant approached him and whispered: "Your Highness, Prince Qi has nothing to do with this woman. He is clearly using her as a shield and it will not do her any good. How strange is it that he still doesn't want to climb a new branch?"

Yan Chen Xingba was the same age as Yan Tao, they were both twenty years old. Logically speaking, they should have gotten married and had a princess. However, due to natural and man-made disasters in the Great Xia Dynasty in the past few years, the emperor had no intention of marrying his son a wife, and the princes were basically late in getting married.

Already.

Seeing that the world is gradually becoming more peaceful, the princes are getting older, the marriage of several unmarried princes has been put on the agenda, the government and the public are as lively as going to the market, and the aristocratic families in the capital who have young ladies of the right age are basically doing their best.

, I want to push my daughter to the position of princess, maybe she will accidentally become a queen from a princess, and become the mother of a country. What an honor it would be for the family.

"How can a woman be called a woman if she's not greedy?" the waiter couldn't help but mutter.

Yan Chen retracted his gaze and glanced at the attendant, "Some women are easily satisfied." After saying that, he turned around and returned to the carriage.

The guard blinked, "Your Highness, do you mean that this woman will be satisfied with the dividends from the morning tea house?"

Yan Chen smiled.

For a daughter of a noble, a monthly dividend of five thousand taels is quite a lot, not to mention that she is still a commoner, so she is probably satisfied.

The attendant was worried: "Your Highness, she is not greedy for money, not in love with power, and has no infatuation with her daughter's family. Then you..."

"Find someone to follow her and see what ideas she gives Captain Qiao to make money?" This is what Yan Chen is most interested in. He wants to know what will happen after the morning tea house.

If he had known that the stubborn Lieutenant Qiao would be hiding at the alley, Ji Rongjin would not have gone out today, but wrote a list for Aunt Guo to come out and buy the same thing.

It’s really bad to go out.

Ji Rongjin was secretly angry while chatting with Qiao Qingyu. Within a few words, she heard something else, "You mean, the idea of ​​guarding the entrance of the alley was given to you by King Wei?"

"Yes!" He said without thinking.

Hmm! Ji Rongjin felt very hot and opened the door with her hands. Although she usually stayed at home, she was not an authentic ancient person after all. She would always get some news whenever she went out.

For example, knowing that the eighth prince is siding with King Chu in the battle to seize the crown prince, some people say that the current emperor is nostalgic for the past and wants to establish the honest and loyal second prince, King Zhao. Others say that King Chu is now the legitimate son and should make him the crown prince; others say that Ten

Among the many princes, Jin Sheng’s favorite is the Seventh Prince Qi, who is good at fighting. Some people say that the emperor does not want to establish a direct heir, but wants to establish a virtuous person...

No matter who is appointed, the struggle for the crown prince in the Great Xia Dynasty will not be peaceful.

It's obviously very hot, but I thought that the Great Xia Dynasty was not at peace yet, but there was another wave. What kind of national destiny is it? It's only been more than a hundred years and it's so riddled with holes?

"Tianfu, the main star of the South Dipper, is opposite to Ziwei at the North Pole. Ziwei is the sky..." There was no customer at a fortune-telling stall at the corner of the street. The old fortune teller with a goatee closed his eyes and stroked his beard, muttering to himself.

Ji Rongjin couldn't help but smile.

The old fortune teller opened his eyes when he heard the laughter. He did not stop stroking his beard, but his eyes were fixed on the sallow-faced young lady with a solemn look on her face.
