Along the way, Princess Le'an became a tour guide. I took my brother and sister-in-law to introduce the shops along the street.
I saw that Princess Le'an had been shopping a lot recently. It’s clear who sells what.
Queen Zhou took Le An's little hand and asked, "Sister, why are you so familiar? It seems that you go shopping a lot. I really envy you."
Gong Yonggu followed Chongzhen and talked with Chongzhen.
After a while, the seven guards had a lot of things on their bodies. Why don't women go shopping less often?
Fortunately, Wang Chengen had experience in this and brought a bunch of five-tael silver notes in advance. I also brought a small bag of silver coins and golden melon seeds.
A restaurant called Fuxingju opened a stall on the street, specializing in fried enema. There were many people surrounding the stall, all carrying them in small oil paper boxes and eating them with bamboo skewers.
"Sister-in-law, their fried enema is particularly delicious. My consort and I always buy some to take back when we come here." Le An excitedly introduced it to Queen Zhou.
"Then buy a few boxes and try them." Queen Zhou looked at the fried golden enema and twitched her index finger.
Wang Chengen quickly came up to pay. The waiter put a small portion of the fried sausage into a small oil paper box. Pour in the salted garlic sauce and add a few bamboo skewers. You can carry it around the stall and eat it.
Gong Yonggu introduced: "Brother, his fried enema is a time-honored brand in Beijing, and the reviews are very good. Whether the enema is delicious or not depends mainly on the cutting method. You see, the enema slices are thicker on one side. The thin side is thinner. Because the thin side is heated at the same time, when the thin part is fried until crispy, the thick part is still soft and waxy on the inside. So when you eat it, you have two different textures. Crisp and chewy, so it is particularly delicious."
Chongzhen inserted a bamboo stick into his mouth and chewed it. Indeed, very delicious. This thing goes perfectly with the brine garlic sauce.
A few people were eating enema and chatting on the street when they saw the crowd in front of them parting and a strange car driving over.
Two large carbide lights are installed on the front of the car. Like two eyes.
At the back is a stove with a fire, and someone is filling it with media. The machine is humming and steaming. Drive from the north.
Empress Zhou had sharp eyes and said, "Master, look, isn't it Bing Chan who is holding a disc in the car? The people behind are Ding Yuanbo and Zhang Shize."
Dududu! A whistle sounded.
Chongzhen looked closely and saw that the person in the front of the car was none other than Xiao Niangpi. He was holding the steering wheel with both hands excitedly and shouted loudly: "Get out of the way, get out of the way. I'm running too slow. If I run over you, I won't have any money to pay for it." Just consider yourself unlucky."
Many people recognize this as the Tushan stall in Dongchang, one of the most popular street stalls in Beijing. People on the street scurried away. Suddenly, the middle of the road was cleared.
Seeing Tu Shanyue like this, she looked like a crazy woman.
Chongzhen shook his head and smiled bitterly. Fortunately, Yang Fan was willing to ask for him. Otherwise, Tushan's daughter will definitely be killed. It is said that Tushan was so worried that he died.
The prince-in-law looked at him in surprise. Uncle Dingyuan and Zhang Shize, the eldest grandson of the British Duke, were filling the fire with media, while the other was tinkering with some strange handles, which seemed to control the speed. It looks very complicated. It is a box with many gears assembled together.
There were two women in the car, talking about gearboxes, brake pads, etc., but I couldn't hear them clearly.
Chongzhen knew one of them, Lin Yueru, the adopted daughter of Duke Wei. I don't know the other one. He looks young but has a bookish air.
Wang Chengen said: "Master, this is Uncle Dingyuan's car. It is said that it can drive away by burning a fire. According to folklore, it is like Nezha's Hot Wheels."
Chongzhen said with a smile: "You old slave, you are talking nonsense. What kind of hot wheel is there? Uncle Dingyuan told me that this kind of thing is called a hot wheel mechanism. I didn't expect that he actually made it."
While he was talking, the car turned on its two headlights and drove away.
Princess Le'an said enviously: "Brother, you see Bingchan is really good at playing. How happy she is."
Chongzhen was also a little envious. Although he was an emperor, what he lacked most was freedom and the happiness of ordinary people.
The group of people visited all the shops on the street and were all a little tired. So, under the leadership of Princess Le'an, Yang Fan went to the community to find the house that Yang Fan gave to the emperor.
The group of people came to the gatekeeper, and Wang Chengen quickly showed his access certificate. Seeing the strict access control here, Chongzhen was a little surprised and said: "This community attaches great importance to safety. Idle people can't get in."
"Of course, brother, think about it. Only officials and wealthy businessmen can buy houses here. If it is not safe, who would dare to live here? Uncle Dingyuan's house will be lost," Princess Le'an said.
Entered the courtyard of the community. I found the scenery here to be so beautiful.
It is simply a garden design, with many fiery red leaves like flames. The scenery changes as you move through the community. The design is very exquisite, especially the small river that runs through the community. There are promenades and pavilions along the river. Although it was night, many people were fishing under the street lights.
"Can you catch fish if you are fishing in this black sky?" Chongzhen asked strangely.
The prince-in-law explained: "I don't know something. Fish like light. Fishing under street lights is better than during the day."
The group walked across an exquisite wooden bridge and came to the south bank of the river. The south bank was full of villas. Princess Le'an led everyone to the best and largest set of doors in the middle of the South Bank.
"Brother, this is my home, right next door. I'll ask some of my servants to come and clean it up for you."
Chongzhen nodded. After all, it had been half a month since the house had been renovated and handed over. Really needs some cleaning.
The door here is locked. Wang Chengen quickly took out the key and opened the door. Enter the courtyard. The courtyard is not big but has small bridges and flowing water. It is very elegant and there are a few green bamboo clumps dotted in the corners. It is also paired with some elegant strange stones.
As soon as she entered the hall on the first floor, the princess directed her servants to light the lamps.
Looking at the two-story hall, you can see the shiny wooden floor. There are leather sofas and a fireplace in the living room. The fireplace can be used by the whole family to talk at night, creating a family atmosphere.
There is also a large kitchen and dining room on the first floor. Servant room etc. On the basement level is a gym and swimming pool.
The second and third floors are bedrooms, study rooms, living rooms, etc. There is also a terrace and sunroom.
"Brother, sister-in-law, please take off your fur coats. It's too hot in this room to wear furs." With that, Le'an helped them take off their mink furs and hang them on the hangers on the wall. Have your servants clean the place.
"It's really warm here." Concubine Tian said. As soon as she came in, she felt the heat rushing to her face.
"Here, the heat comes from here," Princess Le'an stepped on the ground in front of the window with her little leather boots, a long and one foot wide gold-plated steel grille. "There is a radiator below. Hot water runs through it. It is hot twelve hours a day. I wear pajamas at home."
"Sister, where is the bathroom you mentioned? I want to see how the porcelain decoration looks like."
"Sister-in-law, come with me," Le An took the three sisters-in-law to the bathroom on the first floor. After a while, exclamations came from inside. Obviously, the facilities in the bathroom are novel and surprising.
Gong Yonggu took out the cigarette and was about to hand it to Chongzhen. He seemed to remember something and quickly took it back. Chongzhen smiled and said: "I have some here too, so take mine."
None today.
