"Xiao Liu, that's enough. There are only a few of us here, and there must be at least 20 or 30 signature dishes at Guanyuanlou. Can you eat them all? You used to use the Minnong education to educate the fourteenth grade, but who knew that every grain of rice on the plate is the result of hard work? Forget..."
Well, in order to save a few taels of silver for himself, Yinzhi was willing to do anything and quoted from classics in vain, intending to stop Yinzuo from betraying his brother in this way.
But his efforts today were destined to be in vain. Not to mention whether Yinzuo would have a change of heart, even with this group of annoying brothers around, his plan would not work.
"Look at what Third Brother said. What's the big deal if we can't finish the food? We have so many brothers. Send someone to call Seventh, Ninth, Tenth, Twelfth, and Fifteenth Brothers over. Even then, this little food might not be enough."
Now you know why Yinzhi said that his brothers were terrible. It was really a pitfall for them to have brothers. What else could Yinzhi do now that he had said this? Okay, big brother, I will remember you. Next time Xiaoliu tries to pit you, I will definitely stand on his side.
What Yinzhen said was absolutely right. Yinlu, Yin? When they arrived, the huge table of dishes ordered by Yinzuo was not enough to eat, but there was indeed not much left.
It was rare for all the brothers to get together like this. After eating and drinking, no one was in a hurry to go back. The afternoon sun was the best time of the day, so Yinzhen and others simply asked someone to bring horses over, mounted their horses, and rode out of the city.
As they left the capital, the number of pedestrians on the road gradually decreased, and with fewer people, the speed of horse riding naturally increased. Although Yinzuo had refused Yinzhen's suggestion to go horse racing before, when they really got on the horse, no one was as excited as him.
"Brother, hurry up! Didn't you always laugh at me and say that my riding and archery skills were half-full? How come today it's you who's been left behind by me? Come, let's have a competition! I want to see if it's my riding and archery skills that have improved, or if yours has just gotten old..."
Isn't that the saying, "He's not good at fighting but he loves to play" is definitely referring to Yinzuo. With Yinzhi's horsemanship, it is no exaggeration to say that he can easily kill ten people like Yinzuo in seconds.
Faced with Yinzuo's seemingly provocative words, Yinzhi didn't even bother to give him a glance. After all, this guy was a king of talking nonsense. If he really meant it, he would back down faster than anyone else.
Moreover, given his grandfather's protective nature, if he accidentally dropped his precious baby, he would be guilty of a serious crime, and he would suffer the consequences.
Yinzuo looked around but couldn't find anyone willing to race with him. Feeling bored, he stopped. Everyone rode their horses slowly along the official road leading out of the capital for a while. When the time was almost up, they turned their horses around and headed towards Changchun Garden.
When Yinzuo returned to Changchun Garden, it was already getting dark. He first went back to Shufengxuan to wash up and change into clean clothes, and then leisurely strolled to his father's Qingxi Book House.
"Ama, look, I brought you something. This candied haws looks delicious, doesn't it? Come, try it..."
Although Yinzuo bought the candied haws because he wanted to eat them, did it affect the fact that he used them to offer treasures to his father? He had already proved that it had no effect at all.
Although Kangxi didn't like these sweet things very much, he obviously didn't want to disappoint Yinzuo's kindness. He reached out to take the candied haws handed to him by Yinzuo, took a bite, chewed it a few times, swallowed it, and then gave a routine praise that was not very sincere.
Yinzuo didn't care whether his father's praise was sincere or not. He found a seat next to Kangxi and sat down. Then he took his own string of candied haws and started eating.
Now that Kangxi has recovered from his illness, Yinzuo naturally doesn't want to live in his father's Qingxi Study. After having dinner with Kangxi and resting for a while, he took Dexi back to his Shufengxuan.
Suddenly, a spring breeze came, and thousands of pear trees blossomed. When Yinzuo woke up from his sleep, he found that the world outside was all white. After washing, changing clothes and having breakfast, the snow outside showed no sign of stopping.
Yinzuo had originally wanted to take a stroll over to his father's place, but since the snow continued to fall, he gave up the idea and asked someone to light up the heating on the waterside pavilion.
"Dexi, send someone to check with your Ninth Master and Tenth Master. If they're not busy, call them over. Also, send someone to the Imperial Kitchen to check and ask them to help with some hot pot ingredients. We have to eat hot pot on this snowy day."
Otherwise, Yinzuo, Yin'er, and Yin? are brothers. Even in front of some useless people, the three of them have a tacit understanding. That's right, these two people couldn't help but talk. Dexi hadn't asked anyone to invite them yet, but they came over on their own.
"Sixth Brother, how about we have hot pot for lunch today? Look, I've brought some mutton. You can just ask someone to pick some vegetables from the greenhouse..."
Yinzhen, Yin? first took off his cloak, which was covered with a thin layer of snow, at the door and handed it to the palace servant waiting on the side. He was helped to change his shoes, and then he walked to Yinzuo and found a place to sit down.
Yinzuo originally wanted to invite the two of them to eat hot pot with him, so he naturally would not refuse Yin'e's suggestion. He asked someone to send the mutton brought by Yin'e to the small kitchen. After that, he asked Yin'er and Yin'e for their opinions before letting Dexi personally take people to the greenhouse to pick vegetables.
In Changchun Garden, Yinzuo's words can be said to be as effective as Kangxi's. Naturally, no one dares to neglect what he wants. Not long after he gave the order, the imperial kitchen delivered all the things Yinzuo and his men wanted.
Outside, the wind was blowing coldly and snowflakes were falling, but the temperature inside the pavilion was just right. Because of the spicy hot pot they had eaten, Yinzuo and his brothers were sweating all over their foreheads.
"Ah, although this hot pot is delicious, the smell is a bit strong. Look at this meal, you're all covered in the smell of the hot pot. It's cold and it's inconvenient to wash up. It would be great if I could soak in a hot spring right now..."
As the saying goes, the speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Yin? was just complaining, but Yinzuo really touched it. After all, their family really had hot springs. It didn't matter where they lived, right?
It is said that action speaks louder than words, and Yinzuo was definitely a man of action. After sending Yinlu and Yin? away, he tidied himself up and took them to Qingxi Book House to find his father.
"Father, I remember you had someone build a hot spring palace in Xiaotangshan. Is it finished now? It's so cold today. My son wants to stay there for a few days. Is that okay?"
