Since the summer heat has subsided, the emperor has been eager to go out of the palace to play. As the weather gradually turned colder, the emperor looked around every day, and finally expressed that he couldn't sit still in the palace, and took a group of people out of the palace to hunt in the royal hunting ground.
It is natural to keep up with the ostentation of the Tianjia travel. In addition to the palace concubines and ministers, the family members of the ministers must also follow.
Jiang Shuyao was very excited after hearing the news. For the emperor's ministers, going to the paddock was naturally hunting, but for her, going to the paddock was not the same as an autumn tour.
From the moment she received the news, she began to prepare supplies, and on the day of the trip, the luggage was piled up with a whole big box.
Xie Xun's injury is getting better, and after removing the bandage a few days ago, he no longer recovers carefully.
He came in from the courtyard and had a headache looking at Jiang Shuyao's big suitcase: "How much did you prepare?"
Seeing him, Jiang Shuyao patted his forehead: "Oh, I forgot to count your luggage."
Xie Xun was helpless: "No need, my injury is not very good, I'm not suitable for hunting, I'm just going to go through the scene, just bring a few pieces of clothes, and I don't need to bring anything else."
It stands to reason that as Xie Xun is an injured patient, Jiang Shuyao should hold him close, take a step back, and leave space for Xie Xun's luggage.
But Xie Xun said so, she really couldn't bear what she prepared, so she leaned over and said, "Thank you, don't worry, all I brought can be used, you go out hunting, I will wait for you in the house Come back, prepare food and drink for you, and make sure you have a good time."
Xie Xun looked down at her and said nothing. He was moving his right arm, his left hand was still covering the wound on his chest, and he looked down at her so coldly, as if she knew she shouldn't be still bullying the patient.
Jiang Shuyao knew Xie Xun's temperament, but she was cold, so she wouldn't blame her for this, but she still felt a little guilty.
She stood on tiptoe, leaned forward and kissed Xie Xun.
Xie Xun didn't expect it to leave at a touch, and his eyes widened slightly because of surprise.
Jiang Shuyao smiled and said, "You are so kind."
Xie Xun just gave her the luggage space. She didn't feel that she had done anything. She praised him and thanked him so seriously, which made him puzzled and flattered at the same time.
After Jiang Shuyao kissed him, he went back to classify the installation objects. Xie Xun clutched his chest and stood behind her.
Jiang Shuyao went to the left, she went to the left, Jiang Shuyao went to the right, and he went to the right.
With such a big person standing here, it was hard for Jiang Shuyao not to pay attention.
She turned around suddenly and looked at Xie Xun. Xie Xun was thinking seriously about what she had done to be praised. She was startled by her actions and blurted out the words in her mind: "You don't have to thank me."
Jiang Shuyao smiled at him, nodded, turned around and continued to clean up.
Xie Xun continued to stand still.
Jiang Shuyao thought he was a little strange and asked, "What's the matter?"
Xie Xun hesitated, the corners of his mouth pursed tightly.
When he usually looked at people, his eyes were clear and clear, and he had a sense of thoroughness to the extreme, but now his expression was still cold and alienated, but his eyes were extraordinarily clear, much brighter than before, as if he was expecting something.
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "... I don't need to bring those few clothes, no, if you change and wash, one is enough, it doesn't take up space."
Jiang Shuyao recalled the conversation just now, and reacted with hindsight, is Xie Xun asking for a kiss
She hesitated for a moment, then tentatively stood on tiptoe and kissed him.
Xie Xun's eyelashes trembled, and he bent down hard to meet her kiss.
Jiang Shuyao cleared his confusion and retreated half a step, Xie Xun showed a reluctant look on his face.
Since the last kiss, Xie Xun has always remembered that feeling. It's just that this is not the same as holding hands. Holding hands can always find opportunities. No matter how bad it is, you can surreptitiously reach out and hold her before going to bed at night, but this is not possible.
I can't just lie down on the bed, cover it with the quilt, and ask in a formal manner, "Can I kiss you today?"
Jiang Shuyao didn't know what Xie Xun was struggling with. After understanding Xie Xun's expectations, he was about to turn around to pack up again. Just as he turned around, Xie Xun held his hand.
With a bit of fluff, she didn't stand firm and almost fell into his arms.
Although he was slow and poor at kissing, he was also self-taught, and quickly lowered his head to capture her lips.
Such a cold and cold person, even kissing people with restraint. Jiang Shuyao only felt that his breath was a little short, the scent of ink all over her surrounded her, and her lips were pressed on her lips, she was so stunned, she seemed to be leaning forward, and tentatively touched her lower lip .
Jiang Shuyao didn't have time to react, but his reaction was bigger than hers. His breathing stagnated and his whole body froze. He couldn't stand the irritation. With a "uh" sound, he clutched his chest and stepped back quickly.
Jiang Shuyao was frightened by his actions, and when he took a closer look, a bloodshot of blood appeared in front of his chest.
"What's the matter?" She hurriedly approached, wanting to see his wound.
Xie Xun clutched his chest and took a few steps back in a panic: "It's okay."
"Let me see." Jiang Shuyao was even more worried.
Xie Xun's ears were flushed, and he stepped back again, with a hint of clenching his teeth, "It's okay." He was really going to be mad at himself. After all, everything went smoothly, but the wound opened.
In the end, Jiang Shuyao caught Xie Xun, who was fleeing, and escorted the doctor.
The doctor is an old imperial doctor who retired from the palace. After Xie Xun's injury stabilized, he has been changing the medicine and prescribing it.
After he checked the injury, he sternly asked Xie Xun if he did not obey the doctor's orders to let go of the activities, otherwise how could the good wound open.
Xie Xun was about to feel ashamed, and quickly explained that he didn't.
"Humph!" The doctor felt that he had seen through everything. "Did you think that the autumn hunting is coming, and you can't let go of your archery skills, so you don't listen to the old man's words and practice drawing and archery."
Xie Xun gritted his teeth: "I don't."
The doctor is a strange old man. Hearing this, he felt strange. How could the wound open if he didn't make a big move? Could it be that his medical skills were wrong. So he broke the casserole and asked in the end, what he ate and what he did and asked to understand.
Finally, when the doctor checked the pulse and changed the medicine and came out to prescribe the prescription, as soon as Jiang Shuyao entered the inner room, he saw Xie Xunsheng restlessly resting his forehead on the bedpost, his face almost freezing.
She was confused, could it be that she had an argument with the doctor
Turning to the outside room, the doctor just finished prescribing the prescription, without saying anything, he gave her the prescription and left.
Jiang Shuyao was even more puzzled. Looking at the prescription, the doctor Long Feifengwu wrote a few words.
"Mung bean and lotus seed soup? Pig loin soup?" What was written on the pharmacy was not a medicinal herb, but a recipe for a medicinal diet.
Jiang Shuyao looked at the last row, and saw a few huge words scrawled there: Young man, too angry!
The royal hunting grounds were far away, and they could not act too hastily. A group of people went to the hunting grounds with great momentum. After a few days of tossing, they finally arrived.
After arriving at the hunting grounds, after the eunuchs and maids arranged accommodation, the men could not help but change their clothes and went hunting around the hunting grounds, while most of the women chose to stay in the house.
Of course, people like Jiang Shuyao and the Zhou family couldn't sit still.
After Zhou arrived at the hunting ground, without waiting for the maids to place their luggage, he slung a knife and an arrow on his back, and plunged into the woods. Xie Lang was helpless, so he could only follow quietly, afraid that she would go into the woods to hunt tigers on impulse.
On the other hand, Jiang Shuyao brought two maids, and the three of them carried a small box and went into the woods to play.
The hunting ground is surrounded all the year round, and few people set foot on it. Jiang Shuyao and the maids picked wild fruits and plucked some wild vegetables. Finally, tired of walking, they found a place to rest beside a clear stream.
The view next to the clear spring is wide, the shore is full of mud and stones, and there are not too many weeds. Jiang Shuyao saw that the environment was good, and he was tired, so he stopped climbing the mountain and prepared to eat here at noon.
She was full in the morning, and she is not hungry now, she just wanted to stop and eat something to bolster her stomach. The original intention was to eat some pastries until I opened the box and saw the sausages inside.
Since there are a little more things to bring, there will always be some omissions in packing up. For example, the raw sausages are put together with the cooked food.
Jiang Shuyao originally only wanted to take out the cake layer and eat it, but when he saw the sausage, he suddenly became greedy, and asked the maid to go to the forest to pick up some dry wood and prepare to bake it.
After the maid entered the woods, she realized that she had no bamboo skewers, so she couldn't bake sausages, so she could only find an extremely smooth stone that was washed away under running water, stack two feet with the stones, and place the slate across the top.
The maids found firewood and stuffed it under the slate. After lighting the firewood, the slate was heated and gradually became scalding hot.
In fact, Jiang Shuyao prefers to use pebbles to bake it. In modern times, volcanic stone sausages or baked stone buns are commonly used. The food tastes very good, because the volcanic stones are evenly heated, small and round, which can ensure that the ingredients are heated in all directions. , the copied ingredients have a natural and rustic taste.
After the slate is heated, use chopsticks to put the sausage on it, and with a "Zi" sound, the casing of the sausage shrinks.
The grilled sausages are made by themselves, with sufficient ingredients, and the minced pork belly is stuffed. The sausage looked chubby and chubby, and the casing was almost stretched out. Jiang Shuyao kept fiddling with the sausages with chopsticks to ensure even heating. As the oil and gas continued to emerge, the casings cracked, the sausage skins burst open, and the roasted fat inside immediately flowed out.
Even if the casing wasn't torn, the slate had to be oiled. The finely chopped fat minced meat is turned into oil juice, the lean meat is soaked with oil and gas, and it comes out from the thin and invisible casing. ,
Jiang Shuyao looked at the slate, thinking that if Xie Xun was there, he could let him catch a fish and bake it, which must taste very good.
As she thought so, a rustling voice suddenly came from the forest. This is the periphery of the hunting ground, and the people who come here are all dignitaries and nobles, which are very safe, so the people who come here should be other family members who come to play together... Just as this idea came up, Jiang Shuyao heard a familiar loud voice.
"It's weird, I actually smell meat!"
"I smell it too."
"Hey, I smelled—why can't I smell it? Lin Wenrao, did you suck the smell away!"
Jiang Shuyao looked at Linzikou, and saw that between the shadows of the trees, a group of people in blue riding suits emerged from the woods, lined up in a long line, their necks stretched out, their chins raised, sniffing sniffing. Yes, coming this way.
This picture is too familiar. If you pout your hips again and match them with their uniform blue riding uniforms, it will be a classic picture in Cat and Mouse.
Lin Cheng first saw Jiang Shuyao who was grilling sausages on the shore, and suddenly stopped, clapping his hands and exclaiming: "What a coincidence! Madam sister-in-law, we can also—ah!"
Before the words are finished, the person disappears.
Jiang Shuyao looked down in astonishment, only to see him lying on the ground blankly.
Lin Cheng suddenly stopped just now, and the road between the mountains was not easy to walk. The people behind did not stop, and one hit and one pushed him.
Xie Xun hung behind him from a distance, and when he saw this, he covered his face with his hands and let out a long sigh. It was too embarrassing.
