Chapter Ninety-Two: A Treat to Beef

"Uncle, you have breakfast here before leaving!" The eastern sky had just turned white, and Li Xiu stood in front of the gate and repeatedly said, he didn't expect to chat with the bearded guest all night, and after dawn, the bearded guest had to leave without eating. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"No, listening to my nephew's words last night really touched me a lot, and now I really have no intention of doing anything else, so I'm leaving!" At this time, the bearded guest seemed a little depressed, Li Xiu's words yesterday not only touched him a lot, but also reshaped his outlook on life and worldview, and he still can't fully accept it, so he must go back and digest it well.

Li Xiu wanted to say something more when he heard this, but the bearded guest waved his hand weakly at this time, turned around and left, and he didn't know if it was Li Xiu's illusion, he always felt that the back of the bearded guest when he left had an indescribable depression.

"Hey, strange, why did Yuechan get up so late today?" Li Xiu turned around and went into the house, but at the moment he was surprised and said to himself, the family is the most diligent in the month, getting up early and going to bed late, every day at this time, she should prepare breakfast for the whole family in the kitchen, but now there is no movement.

At that moment, Li Xiu walked to the window of the west wing with some worry, because the weather was warm, and the window was not closed, so he saw at a glance that Yuechan was sleeping soundly with Qi Niang in her arms, and Liu Er was lying on the bed on all fours, sleeping in a rather indecent position.

"Why did Qi Niang run to sleep here, it is estimated that it is very late, no wonder Yuechan can't get up!" Li Xiu muttered to himself when he saw this, he thought that it was Qi Niang's reason that Yuechan couldn't get up, but he didn't know that Yuechan was worried that he would fight with the bearded guest, so he stayed up until the second half of the night before falling asleep.

Seeing that Yuechan was sleeping very soundly, Li Xiu didn't wake her up, although he didn't sleep all night, but he was not sleepy at all, and then he came to the kitchen to cook by himself, anyway, when there was no Yuechan and them before, he cooked by himself, and Qi Niang also liked to eat the food he cooked.

At that moment, Li Xiu raised the fire, there were two pots on the stove, one large and one small, boiling porridge in the big pot, stir-frying vegetables in the small pot, and breakfast was generally very simple, so Li Xiu fried two eggs for each person, not only Qi Niang likes to eat, Yuechan and Liu Er also like it.

When breakfast was ready, Liu Er finally got up sleepily and cleaned the yard, and then Yuechan rushed out of the room with fluffy hair, and rushed into the kitchen to prepare for cooking while getting dressed, but found that Li Xiu was looking at him with a smile, and there was a prepared breakfast next to her, which made her blush and said, "Old ...... I'm sorry, sir, the slave is getting up late! ”

"Hehe, I guess I made a noise to you last night, I just didn't feel sleepy, so I made some breakfast, and Liu Er was busy and ate together!" Li Xiu said with a smile, and then walked out of the kitchen.

Just at this time, Qi Niang also woke up, rubbing her eyes and walking out of the door to see Li Xiu, but she couldn't help pouting and complaining: "Brother, is that curly bearded uncle gone, we couldn't sleep because of your quarrel yesterday!" ”

"Haha~, that uncle has already left, I guess I won't come again in the next two days, it's all because our yard is too small, and the new yard will have to be dried for a few days, and when we move in, this will never happen again!" Li Xiu smiled and stepped forward to touch Qi Niang's little head and said.

"It's going to take a few days!" Qi Niang heard that the new yard still couldn't be moved, and she was a little unhappy again, she had been looking forward to living in the new yard during this time, after all, children are always interested in new things.

"Don't worry, you can move it in a few days, I made your favorite omelette, do you want to eat it with your brother?" Li Xiu changed the topic with a smile.

"Omelette! I want to eat! Qi Niang's eyes lit up immediately when she heard the word omelette, and she couldn't care about the new house at the moment, she clapped her hands and trotted into the kitchen, during this time she ate well and slept well in Li Xiu's place, the little girl was fat twice, plus she was originally white, and now she looks like Yuechan's sister.

After breakfast, Li Xiu finally felt a little sleepy, just happened to come to the helmet and took Qi Niang to the princess of Pingyang to play, speaking of which during this time Qi Niang and the princess got along very well, Qi Niang came back every day to tell Li Xiu what she said to the princess today, what games she played, and even Princess Pingyang taught her to read, which also made Li Xiu very grateful.

Without Qi Niang's interruption, Li Xiu fell asleep quickly, and he also told Yuechan not to wake him up at noon, because he estimated that he would sleep until the afternoon.

Sure enough, when Li Xiu woke up, he saw a few beams of warm sunlight coming in from the west window, countless floating dust flying in the sunlight, crisp birdsong came from outside the window, and even a few unknown daring birds landed on the windowsill, tilting their heads to look at Li Xiu on the bed, so that he couldn't tell whether this was reality or a dream for a while.

After lying on the bed for a while, Li Xiu felt that his head slowly woke up, and he stood up and stretched a long lazy waist, this kind of lazy days is too draining people's will, Li Xiu really can't imagine, if he crosses back again, I'm afraid he will no longer be able to adapt to the fast-paced tense life in his previous life.

put on his clothes and walked out of the room, only to see Yuechan and Liu'er still sitting under the tree in the yard doing needlework, and I don't know where they got so much needlework to do, but it's not strange to think about it, for example, the clothes on his whole body are made by Yuechan, including that he is not used to wearing the crotch cloth of the Tang Dynasty, so he designed his underwear, which was also done by Yuechan with a red face for her, plus the usual small work such as sewing and mending, so as long as they are free, the needlework in their hands hardly stops.

"Master, you've slept long enough, and you'll have dinner in a while!" When Liu Er saw Li Xiu come out, she smiled with a small face, after getting along for a long time, they also figured out Li Xiu's temper, and they naturally became bolder, and occasionally made jokes about Li Xiu.

"Haha, this shows that I am blessed, master, just in time to wake up before dinner, what will I have for dinner today?" Li Xiu laughed when he heard this, he had now degenerated to the point where he only cared about what to eat when he woke up.

"Master Qiqi, just now Ma Ye sent someone to say that there was a cow in the princess Zhuangzi that injured her leg and could no longer work, so she reported to the government and slaughtered it, saying that she wanted to invite you to eat beef, but you hadn't woken up yet, so the slave maid let the person who came go back first!" Yuechan replied with a smile at this time, if someone else came to invite her, she would definitely wake up Li Xiu, so as not to lose her courtesy, but Ma Ye is too familiar, so there is no need for this.

"Beef! It's a rarity! Li Xiu's eyes lit up when he heard this, most of the ancient dynasties were forbidden to kill cattle, because cattle were the main labor in the field, and agriculture has always been considered by the rulers to be the foundation of the country, which also made the imperial court attach great importance to ploughing cattle, and slaughtering ploughing cattle privately is even a felony of killing heads, even if ploughing cattle lose their labor force for other reasons, they must be reported to the government before they can be slaughtered.

It is precisely because of the above reasons that Li Xiu has come to Datang for so long, but he has never eaten beef, and now when he heard that Ma Ye invited him to eat beef, he couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately ordered Yuechan and the two of them to take care of the house, and promised to bring them beef to eat at night, and then came to the princess's courtyard in a hurry.

There are still hundreds of meters away from the courtyard, Li Xiu smelled a strong smell of meat, and when he entered the gate of the princess's courtyard, he immediately heard the noise of many people in a courtyard on the right side of the front yard, Li Xiu didn't need to be taken by others, and walked straight into the courtyard, only to see a fire rising in the middle of the courtyard, a large pot on the fire has been boiled, and the meat and bones in it keep tumbling with the soup, and a table is placed in the corner of the courtyard, and a pot of big bones is placed on the table, and Ma Ye is sitting behind the table and eating with a mouth full of oil.

Li Xiu strode over with a smile, and he didn't be polite to Ma Ye, he sat down opposite him and picked up a bone to eat, and said while gnawing: "Uncle Ma, you won't cook the whole cow, it's a bit of a waste to eat like this!" ”

"As far as you know a lot, all the good meat is kept in the ice cellar, and when you kid is free to cook a few more dishes, the princess's appetite will be raised by you!" Ma Ye suddenly tore off a piece of beef on the bone, swallowed his stomach a few times and spoke again, "How was the conversation with the bearded guest yesterday, he didn't bring you back to the Li Mansion?" ”

"Hehe, my uncle is a sensible person, after listening to my story, he never forced me to go back to the Li Mansion, and we talked very speculatively, we talked all night last night, and he didn't go back until this morning, otherwise I wouldn't have slept at home for a day." Li Xiu said with a smile, this cow is really fat, the meat on the bones is very tender, and Li Xiu is also full of oil when he eats it.

"What do you have to talk about with the bearded man, does he also like good food?" Ma Ye raised his head in surprise when he heard this.

"Food is just one aspect of what we talk about, it's all about the delicacies of the sea, and the other is mainly about some overseas customs." Li Xiu said with a smile.

"I see, I didn't expect you to be interested in overseas things, how about it, did you hear a lot of overseas anecdotes from the bearded guest?" Ma Ye nodded when he heard this, he thought it was Li Xiu who asked the bearded guest about overseas affairs, but he didn't know that it was mainly Li Xiu who fooled the bearded guest last night.

"Haha~, it's okay, why isn't my Qi Niang here, she likes to join in this kind of fun?" Seeing that Ma Ye had misunderstood, Li Xiu didn't explain, so he asked casually.

"Qi Niang and the princess are also eating beef in the inner house, but your Qi Niang is really cute, and the princess has a smile on her face every day these days." When Ma Ye said the end, he also showed a smile on his face, since he met Li Xiu's brothers and sisters, Princess Pingyang had more smiles on her face than in previous years combined.

"How is the princess practicing walking, I'll take a look later, by the way, I want to ask her for help!" Li Xiu said very casually.

"What's the matter?" Ma Ye was immediately very alert when he heard this, and he thought of the scene when he saw Li Xiu pushing the princess for a walk by the river that day, although he also hoped that the princess could be happy, but the identity gap between Li Xiu and her was too big, not to mention that there was a Chai Shao in the middle.
