Chapter 20 Like paint and glue

  newlyweds are like paint and glue.

Until there was a knock on the door outside, Ziyun's probing voice came: "Sir, madam, the eldest princess has sent someone to send a message, saying that she wants to come over and have breakfast together."

Jingshu hurriedly pushed Li Ling and urged: "Get up quickly, don't keep mother waiting."

The two of them got up. After everything was tidied up, Jingshu called Ziyun in to prepare water for washing.

It was already three o'clock in the morning, and the eldest princess had already ordered someone to invite the two of them to come over. But while Ziyun was waiting outside, she could hear the music and singing going on inside.

  It’s really not easy to disturb.

Ziyun was so anxious that she went to the room with anger. She realized it was too late, so she called out with a red face.

When the two of them arrived at the eldest princess’ Yasongju, it turned out that the eldest princess had been waiting for them for a long time. Even the third girl, who was always late, had arrived.

When the third girl saw the two of them, she yelled, "I'm usually late, but I didn't expect that my second brother would also be late sometimes."

Li Ling looked calm and replied: "You are not late this morning."

The third girl, who had a rare opportunity to catch her brother, said reluctantly: "I arrived early, and my mother and I have been waiting here for you for almost an hour." After saying that, she looked at Jingshu and said: "Second sister-in-law is never late, today I was also held back by you."

Ever since the third girl spoke rudely to the fourth master at the last family dinner, Li Ling had not treated his sister well these past few days in order to teach her a lesson. Today he also wanted to soften his words, so he smiled and coaxed her and said, "Only the state officials are allowed to set fires. People are not allowed to light lamps. You are late every time, and I was late once and you were so unwilling to let me go."

The third girl pouted and said coquettishly to the eldest princess: "Mother, you see it is the second brother who is late, but he still wants to beat him up."

“Let me just say, he just loves to bully me.”

The eldest princess smiled and persuaded: "Okay, okay, your second brother is joking with you. Didn't you just complain that you were hungry? Eat quickly." After that, she greeted Li Ling and Jing Shu and said: "You guys should come over here quickly."

After breakfast, the eldest princess mentioned to Jingshu what she had mentioned yesterday about making tea with lotus dew.

Jingshu asked Aunt Ju, "We can collect lotus dew this morning."

Grandma Ju smiled and replied: "I asked them to pick it early in the morning. I picked two full jars. They have been sealed and placed under the sun to cool down."

The eldest princess said: "Is it one hour?"

 Aunt Ju replied: “We’re here.”

The eldest princess couldn't wait to say: "Then get it quickly."

After a while, a maid brought out the dew jar. The eldest princess took it over and looked at it. Then she handed it to Jingshu and asked, "Do you think it's so heavy that it can still be used?"

Jingshu took it and looked at it carefully, then got closer and smelled it, and replied: "To my mother, the lotus dew has settled well, and the tea made from it will be extremely fragrant."

"Then follow me to the tea room." The eldest princess called Jing Shu impatiently.

"I'm going too." The third girl had no interest in tea art at first, but seeing how enthusiastic her mother and Jing Shu were, she was excited to follow.

The eldest princess looked at Li Ling, who was silent at the side, and said: "The Western Regions sent a few batches of BMWs as tribute a while ago, and I ordered them to be kept in the Hundred Horse Garden. It's rare that you have free time today. I will order someone to take you to select some horses later." .”

Li Ling replied: "Mom, don't worry about me. I'll just go out for a walk later."

The eldest princess took Jingshu and the third girl into the tea room. The tea room was decorated in a simple and elegant style. The walls were decorated with original works by famous artists from all over the world. The tea tables and chairs were also made of fine golden nanmu. Various tea sets were also used. Extremely sophisticated.

After Jingshu washed her hands, she filtered the lotus dew carefully three times with gauze, then boiled the water with a tea dock and put it into a tea tripod. After setting it aside to cool, she poured the tea again. Dock boiling, such as repeated cycles.

The eldest princess watched from the side as Jingshu boiled water and washed the tea with her hands skillfully.

 The two communicated softly sometimes, and sometimes expressed their own opinions.

 An hour passed without realizing it.

The third girl was still curious at first and waited patiently. However, after waiting for a long time and no tea came out, she lost her patience and couldn't help complaining: "Why is it so slow? I want my mother and sister-in-law to cook this way." I’m afraid I’m going to die of thirst here.”

The eldest princess looked at her impatient daughter and said, "You are impatient no matter what. You should learn from your second sister-in-law and be able to calm down."

The third girl muttered, "I can't do it." As she said that, she stared at the eldest princess and asked, "Is my mother like this at the age of the second sister-in-law?"

The eldest princess sighed slightly and said, "I couldn't hold my breath when I was young. Now that I am old, I have changed."

"Then I followed my mother." The eldest princess said, "You are my daughter, so you are naturally like me."

“But they all say I look like my father.” The third girl said unintentionally.

Hearing this, the eldest princess paused her busy hands and her face darkened.

Jingshu smiled at the side and changed the topic, saying: "Mother, you see the color of this tea has slowly changed. When the tea water turns into a clear light yellow, the tea is ready."

The third girl knew she had made a mistake, so she also echoed: "After so much effort, I finally got the drink in my mouth."

“The second brother must have gone to the stable to choose the horse by himself. It’s a pity that he doesn’t have this good fortune.”

Just as he was talking, Li Ling stepped in and said, "Who said I don't have a good meal? I'm just in time."

The third girl didn't expect her brother to come back, so she smiled and joked: "I thought you got stuck by those horses."

Li Ling replied: "No matter how good the horse is, it is not as fragrant as the tea."

While the two were bickering, Jingshu had already poured the tea, first took one cup and offered it to the eldest princess, then to Li Ling and the third girl, and then she picked up the cup and tasted it carefully.

 “Well, it’s really good!” The eldest princess praised after taking a sip.

Li Ling also tasted it carefully and said, "What kind of tea is this? It has such a fragrant taste."

The third girl didn't understand tea, and she didn't taste it, but she pretended to know a lot about it and said to Li Ling: "You know the stuff, my mother and my second sister-in-law boiled this with the dew on the lotus leaves. It took a lot of effort." It’s a lot of effort, isn’t it delicious?”

The eldest princess sipped the tea and said to Jingshu: "This method of making tea is really wonderful. Tomorrow I will order them to get the lotus dew."

"I'm just afraid it will rain tomorrow." Jing Shu replied, looking at the sky outside.

Hearing this, the eldest princess also looked outside, and saw dark clouds floating in the foggy sky, so she said to herself, "It's going to rain again, what a pity."

Jingshu said: "It's okay, just wait until the rain stops and then pick it up."

Li Ling said: "I just saw a boat floating on the lake. It has a very unique shape. But my mother ordered them to build a new one?"

The eldest princess nodded and said: "The craftsmen from the south of the Yangtze River were ordered by the emperor to build them for good luck. They built three boats in total. One is placed here, one is given to the prince, and one is given to the king of Jin."

With that said, the eldest princess put down the tea cup, looked at Li Ling and then looked back at Jingshu, and said, "It's rare for Bo Yue to have free time today. You can go take a boat trip to the lake later."

“That’s great, I’m going too.” Before Li Ling could agree, the third girl said happily.

The eldest princess said: "What are you going to do with me? I will take you to ride a horse in a while."

 “I want to go swimming in the lake with my second sister-in-law.”

Aunt Ju winked at the third girl and said: "It's a cloudy day to ride a horse and a sunny day to swim in the lake. It's rare that there is no sun today. Among the new horses sent to the stable, there is a fine white colt. Don't you want to go and see it?" "

“Yes, I am also planning to give that horse to you. I will take you to see it later.”

Having said all that, I just don’t want her to go swimming in the lake with me.

Although the third girl is young, she understands some things about men and women. She responded dully: "That's good."

Li Ling breathed a sigh of relief, and his sullen face softened.

  I knew he would definitely **** her away as soon as he came! The third girl rolled her eyes at Li Ling and said angrily: "Then I will ask my second sister-in-law to accompany me to the lake tomorrow."

Grandma Ju smiled and said vaguely: "Okay, okay, my third lady, the prince will go on an errand tomorrow, and the second lady can still stay with you."

Third girl: I knew you would **** someone from me as soon as you came here!

Li Ling: This is my wife.

Princess: Shu'er, come with me to make tea.

Jingshu: Okay, mother.

The eldest princess was proud: When it comes to robbing, who can beat me?
