Chapter 135: It's Snowing
Xu Qing and Xiao Ruxue: "..."
The two of them have never seen such a brazen person...
I'm going to get the paper...why can he be so brazen and so natural?
But Xu Qing didn't dwell too much on these, and soon began to read sentence by sentence.
"Sun Tzu's Art of War" was something that Xu Qing had roughly skimmed in his previous life, after all, at that time he was not so bored as to read military books to relieve his boredom.
If God didn't give him some Gold Finger or something, it would be really difficult for him to reproduce so many things in this world.
Xu Qing is very fortunate that in her previous life, due to various reasons, she has browsed a lot of useful books with or without color...ahem...all for learning...
Look, it will be useful in this life...
With the blessing of a photographic memory, Xu Qing found "Sun Tzu's Art of War" page by page as easily as flipping through photos.
Xu Qing read it over and over again and helped Xiao Ruxue sharpen the ink.
Xiao Ruxue sat on the seat, holding a pen in one hand and pressing the paper in the other, writing meticulously.
It has to be said that although Xiao Ruxue grew up practicing martial arts since she was a child, she still learned the basic skills of the rich and powerful in this world well.
For example, learning to write.
Xiao Ruxue's handwriting is much more pleasing to the eye than Xu Qing's brush calligraphy cultivated in crash courses.
Such a quiet Xiao Ruxue Xu Qing was only seen when grilling fish, the rest of the time she was naughty and lively, the kind that couldn't be stopped.
Since King Xian's birthday is still a few days away, this book is not in a hurry to finish.
When Xiao Ruxue got tired of writing, Xu Qing played a game of chess with her, and then Xiao Ruxue didn't care whether it was time for the fish's meal or not, she pulled Xu Qing out and sprinkled a large amount of fish food into the pond.
Xiao Ruxue clapped her hands happily as she watched the school of fish in the pond scrambling for food.
At this moment, Xiao Ruxue suddenly felt something stained on her eyelashes, and stretched out her hand to take it off, a snowflake melted in Xiao Ruxue's palm.
Xiao Ruxue instantly became very excited and said: "Xu Qing Xu Qing! It's snowing! It's snowing!"
What she likes most is snow. Every time it snows, she will build a big snowman in the palace, use coal as eyes, break off two branches and insert them into arms.
She had been looking forward to the day when it would snow a long time ago.
Standing behind him, Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ruxue in a white dress, yelling, running and jumping like a mischievous and cute snow elf in the falling snow.
Soon, Xiao Ruxue seemed to have thought of something, and asked his servants to pick up the fish in the pond one by one and put them in a large tank in a room.
Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ruxue in confusion: "What are you doing?"
Xiao Ruxue said: "It's snowing! If the water in the pond freezes to ice, wouldn't the fish be frozen too? Take them to the house, where there is a charcoal fire, so they can be warmed." Get through this winter alive and not be frozen to death!"
Xu Qing was very relieved that Xiao Ruxue, who usually only knew how to roast them to eat, would have such a merciful day and worry about how the fish would spend the winter.
But before Xu Qing was relieved for a second, Xiao Ruxue continued to say: "If they freeze into ice with the water, they can't be eaten! They are still very small and not fat enough! It's better to put them in the house." Keep feeding them and we'll have fish for the winter too!"
Xu Qing: "..."
The snow wasn't very heavy at the beginning, but soon it started to change suddenly and turned into heavy snow.
Xu Qing took Xiao Ruxue back to the house and patted off the snow that fell on her body, and Xiao Ruxue also helped Xu Qing pat off the snowflakes that fell on her body.
There was a warm stove in the room, and the snow that fell on the ground quickly melted into little water stains, which disappeared in a blink of an eye.
The current snow is not thick enough to make a snowman, and there will be enough snow until another hour after the snow falls.
However, there is still an hour before they will go home from get off work. I am afraid that they will not be able to build a snowman today, and they will have to wait until tomorrow.
During this hour, Xiao Ruxue copied the books for a while, and then played two games of backgammon with Xu Qing.
...
When it was time to go home, the snow outside was still unabated, with a thick layer on the ground, and the carriage from the Xianwang Mansion was already waiting at the door of the bookstore.
Obviously, they came to pick Xiao Ye and Xiao Ruxue back.
After Xu Qing stacked up Xiao Ruxue's copied manuscripts and put them away, she looked at Xiao Ruxue beside the carriage and said, "Why don't you go home?"
Xiao Ruxue said: "Look, it's snowing heavily outside, why don't you come up too, I'll ask the coachman to take you home first."
Just when Xiao Ruxue finished speaking, another carriage stopped at the door of the bookstore. Su Qian got off the carriage, looked at Xu Qing and said, "I see that it is snowing outside, so I come to pick up my husband." Family."
Her own wife came to pick her up, so Xu Qing thanked Xiao Ruxue for giving Xu Qing a ride, and got into the carriage of the Su residence.
Xiao Ruxue looked at Xu Qing who got into another woman's carriage, Xiao Ruxue couldn't help but twitched her mouth and snorted softly...
Although the carriage in Su's mansion is not as big as that in Prince Xian's mansion, it is more warm.
After all, whispering to Su Qian is much better than watching two children bickering in another carriage...
Su Qian and Xu Qing went to the gate of the county government office to pick up Su County magistrate, and then the family of three went back in a carriage.
After returning home, the sky became darker and darker. The servants of the Su family had already lit up all the lanterns in the Su residence. The bright lights reflected the white snow, making the entire Su residence look like a world in a painting.
Xu Qing had already paid attention to the question of what to eat at night. He looked at Su County Magistrate and Su Qian and said, "We are having hot pot today."
Both Su County Magistrate and Su Qian asked curiously, "Hot pot?"
Obviously they don't know what hot pot is, and Xu Qing feels sad for them since they have never eaten hot pot since they were so old.
Hot pot is definitely a perfect match for rainy and snowy days, especially when it is cold and freezing. There is absolutely nothing more atmospheric than hot pot.
According to Xu Qing, the county magistrate of Su stirred up the sesame paste, and Xu Qing prepared the soup base in the house.
In this world, once winter comes, the amount of green vegetables available will plummet.
Most people can only eat radish and cabbage in winter.
There is no chili in this world, and there are too few seasonings available, so Xu Qing can only use mushrooms to make a mushroom soup.
Su Qian's Saber Technique is still superb, even if the mutton is frozen hard due to the low temperature, Su Qian can still wave the kitchen knife in his hand to cut the mutton into mutton rolls.
The three of them gathered around a small stove, on which was a small pot, and bubbles were bubbling in the pot.
County magistrate Su looked at the tumbling mutton in the pot and then at the dipping sauce in the bowl, and asked in surprise, "Is this the hot pot you mentioned?"
