Chapter 33 About Wontons
The study of the Seventh Master is filled with various wood carvings, all of which were carved by him personally.
He likes to make wood carvings and has all kinds of ornaments and utensils, and he especially likes all kinds of exquisite wooden hairpins and bracelets.
The Seventh Master took out his latest masterpiece and said, "Brother Four, look, what do you think of this wooden hairpin?"
The Fourth Master is the only one who doesn't despise his hobby, and the Seventh Master happily shares his latest masterpiece.
The Fourth Master took the hairpin and was stunned for a moment: "It's so exquisite, is it also carved from wood?"
Master Qi smiled. "Isn't it amazing? I deliberately chose sandalwood. This hairpin not only looks exquisite, but also emits a light woody fragrance. When a woman wears it, it will blend with her own fragrance and emit a unique personal fragrance.
As time goes by, the hairpin will also be imbued with the fragrance of a girl, and the person and the hairpin will become one."
Then, he smiled and said, "Give this to Fourth Brother. You can give it to the woman you love and wish her a long and lasting love."
The Fourth Master subconsciously wanted to refuse because it seemed like there wasn't anyone to send it to.
But looking at the smiling Seventh Master, he finally put the hairpin away and said, "Okay."
Then he waved to the people serving around him and said, "You go down first."
After sending all the men out, the Fourth Master frowned and asked the Seventh Master, "Has your foot injury improved? It's been more than ten days since we last rode horses.
I remember that day when I walked on the street, I was very steady. Why do I need someone to support me today? "
The Seventh Master was stunned for a moment: "Don't worry, Fourth Brother. Didn't the doctor say it's just some broken bones. It will be fine after some rest."
The Fourth Master frowned deeply: "Since the last time, have you asked someone to look at it again?"
Qi Ye felt a little embarrassed: "I have been so busy making hairpins recently that I almost forgot that my foot is injured.
It hasn't been shown to anyone yet, so it's better to have less trouble than more."
He had been different from his brothers and sisters since he was a child, and had always been raised on the farm by his father.
I only returned to Beijing after I became an adult in recent years.
He was not used to interacting with people, so the emperor asked him to rest at home for a while, so he stayed at home and hardly went out.
The Fourth Master has some understanding of this Seventh Brother.
He had the best relationship with me, and the emperor also asked me to take good care of him. When the two of them went out for a walk, he accidentally broke his leg.
If the emperor knew about this, he would definitely scold me.
So he simply suppressed the matter.
"Someone, let the doctor from the Liu Mansion come in."
No matter how dumb the Seventh Master was, he realized something was wrong at this moment: "Fourth Brother, is there something wrong?"
The Fourth Master nodded. "There is indeed something unusual. I accidentally discovered that there is something fishy about one of the stewards in the mansion. He tampered with your horse that day."
The Seventh Master's expression froze: "Someone wants to harm me? Why?"
The Fourth Master narrowed his eyes slightly: "He's coming for me..."
Seventh Master: "Fourth Brother, who would use such a method? How can I affect you if I'm injured?"
Fourth Master: "Your minor injury is naturally fine, but what if it's serious, or you're left with a disability?"
Qi Ye was shocked: "This... Fourth Brother, I just got back..."
Although he has not experienced court disputes, he is not a fool.
If he is really disabled, Fourth Brother will probably be under suspicion.
What will the Emperor think of Fourth Brother then?
In order to avoid being scolded, he hid his brother's injury, which led to his brother becoming disabled...
As for himself, as a disabled person, he will never have the chance to serve in the court.
The royal family had a disabled prince, and people were afraid that he would become a disgrace to the entire royal family, and no one wanted to see him again.
It is really amazing to eliminate two adult princes in one fell swoop.
"Master Beile, Master Seventh, the court physician is here." Su Peisheng's voice was heard outside the door.
"Bring it in."
Doctor Liu put down his medicine box and immediately began to examine the Seventh Master's leg injury.
After asking a lot of questions, he finally said with a serious expression: "Strange, Master Qi's leg bones are not connected correctly. They are obviously dislocated, but you can't see it from the outside."
The Fourth Master's expression grew colder. "What would happen if it wasn't discovered?"
Doctor Liu frowned: "I'm afraid it will affect your walking in the future."
After checking again, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Master, don't worry. Although the Seventh Master's bones are a little crooked, there is no way to fix them. Let me push the bones and reconnect them. Let him rest for three months and he should be fine.
Fortunately, the master discovered it in time. If it had been later, I am afraid it would have been too late to save the situation."
Cold sweat broke out on the Seventh Master's forehead, but he still respectfully clasped his fists towards the Liu Mansion Doctor and said, "Thank you."
The doctor of the Liu Mansion said he dared not to, and then said: "Master, do you want to help the Seventh Master treat it now? It is best not to delay this injury."
The Fourth Master nodded and turned to look at the Seventh Master: "Seventh Master, just bear with it."
As you can imagine, reconnecting broken bones is something that no ordinary person can endure.
The Seventh Master nodded: "Don't worry, Fourth Brother, I can bear it."
...
Warming the wine.
She was busy around her simple stove.
Debone the fresh fish and use the back of a knife to break the meat into minced meat. Season with oil, salt, rice wine, soy sauce, sesame oil, and chopped green onions.
Put the fish bones into the pot to make broth.
Knead the dough and roll out the dough in one go.
By the time the hawthorn water boiled, the warm wine had already wrapped the wontons smoothly.
Shanzha was stunned: "Sister, when did you learn this skill?"
Wen Jiu looked at her with a smile: "Your sister can cook a lot more. From now on, I will cook them all for you."
As he was talking, he poured some wontons into the pot with warm wine.
Shanzha was surprised: "That's strange. It's not like I haven't seen other people cook before, but why do I think my sister's cooking is so beautiful?"
"Really?" Wen Jiu smiled: "If you like it, take a look at it more."
Maybe it’s because she’s shot so many food videos that she has developed a rhythm of her own.
As we were talking, the wontons were cooked.
He poured out two bowls of warm wine and said, "Come on, have a taste."
Shanzha was stunned: "Sister, isn't this for Lord Beile?"
Wenjiu nodded: "Yes, let's taste it first."
After eating a bowl of wontons, Shanzhao's eyes lit up.
"Sister, I can't explain why it tastes so special, why do I keep wanting to eat it?
It feels so fresh and fragrant, and the soup is delicious too."
Shanzha looked into the pot eagerly, his saliva almost flowing out, but he didn't dare to scoop it up.
Wen Jiu filled her bowl with wine in a funny way: "Eat it quickly."
Then she cleaned up the pot and started preparing fried wontons with eggs and fried wontons with water.
She cooked another pot of greasy sour plum soup and went to the Fourth Master's front yard with the lunch box.
The previous seduction failed, this time I plan to capture his stomach first!
Wen Jiu felt that she was probably the only person in the history of the Qing Dynasty who had to sell her talent when seduction failed!
Come on, it’s all tears if I say too much.
An hour later.
The Fourth Master took his men back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion.
At that time, the servants in the Seventh Master's house had already been screened.
What is surprising is that there are all kinds of monsters and demons in Qi Ye's yard.
The Fourth Master's face was terribly cold. If it wasn't still early, he would have wanted to go and beat his eldest brother up right away.
The Fourth Master walked into the house angrily, found a table to sit down, picked up the snacks on the table, threw them into his mouth, and chewed them viciously.
“Crack.”
The pan-fried wontons are crispy and golden, and you’ll be addicted to them one bite at a time.
Only after the plate was empty did the Fourth Master feel a little better.
I realized something was wrong.
"Why haven't I seen this dessert before?"
