Although the two adults were a little confused smelling the fragrance, but...
After all, they are full and their bellies are still bulging. If they go to beg for food, they may not be able to eat it.
Therefore, in the end, we could only look at each other regretfully, and then go back to work.
In contrast, Mr. Chen, who was slightly familiar with Xiao Nianzhi, could not resist the temptation and quietly came to the door after returning from lunch.
He thought, if Chang Shan could stand at the door and eat, then he should be able to, too, right?
If that doesn't work, then serve it out and he can eat it standing in the yard!
As long as he can eat it, he doesn’t care!
Aunt Qin originally prepared enough for three to four people, but Xiao Nianzhi's appetite was average. Even if he encountered something he liked, he would not overeat because his stomach could not bear it.
Today's body is young, take good care of it, and you will suffer less when you get older.
This is what her grandma always told her in the past. Don't rely on your youth to do your best. It will be too late to regret it when you are old and suffer.
Although Chang Shan had a large appetite, he still couldn't finish it.
Therefore, when Mr. Chen came to visit, Xiao Nianzhi also shared the dishes with him.
Mr. Chen was also embarrassed and kept going in frequently, so he went in with Chang Shan alone.
He had already eaten, but he actually couldn't eat much at the moment.
However, sometimes, when you are full, you can still have two more bites.
By the time he came to his senses, Mr. Chen was already holding on to his belly and walking. He should be lucky that he didn't have a middle-aged belly, otherwise the way he was holding on to the wall might not look so good.
Chang Shan was also a little stuffed.
After eating, feeling the food pushing against his throat, he began to silently reflect on himself. qδ.net
He is a bodyguard who practices martial arts to protect people. How could he eat like this?
If he becomes as fat as a ball in the future, he will probably be kicked out of this industry!
Knowing that the two of them were struggling, Xiao Nianzhi changed his after-dinner tea to hawthorn tangerine peel.
After it was cooked, the aroma of delicious food slowly dissipated in the room, and a faint sourness wafted up.
After Xiao Nianzhi asked the two people, he knew that they could withstand the acid, so he didn't add rock sugar.
After it was cooked, the two of them drank a bowl each.
There is no way, this is for digestion, if you don't drink it, you will be afraid of feeling uncomfortable in the afternoon.
Fortunately for Chang Shan, he might be standing in this corner or that nook.
But Mr. Chen still needs to work at his desk. It would be embarrassing if others asked him if he couldn't sit still!
Master Chen is on the same level as Xiao Nianzhi, but they have different divisions of labor.
When he went back, he was thinking about something.
That is……
If he gives Xiao Nianzhi his monthly meal allowance, can he let him bring his own meal?
Of course, if it's not enough, he can just add more money.
The food was so good that day, so I guess the five taels of silver might not be enough to make it!
Mr. Chen's family is not rich, and he is a little reluctant to give more money, so can he live with 5 taels of silver for half a month, or ten days?
After eating, Xiao Nianzhi cleaned up a bit.
There is no well here in the Yamen, so daily water use is not particularly convenient.
However, Xiao Nianzhi has Changshan!
The other party carries water, washes dishes and cleans up pots, and the work is no worse than woad.
After Chang Shan packed up, he disappeared near the door again.
Xiao Nianzhi afternoon...
Well, I fished all afternoon.
When the next shift was approaching, Cong Xiangwu handed over the information he had compiled for most of the day.
If it's not an urgent matter, they don't need to work overtime.
Therefore, after Xiao Nianzhi comes over tomorrow, he will review and sort it out and submit it.
After storing the things on the bookshelf at the back, Xiao Nianzhi tidied them up, Chang Shan carried the food box, and they happily left work.
.
If it wasn't for the lack of time, she actually wanted to go outside the city to see Aunt Yu.
However, the time to go back and forth is tight, and if you can't make it in time to close the city gate, you have to stay at Zhuangzi's side.
In fact, there is no problem living there. The problem is...
Before getting on the carriage, Chang Shan reminded Xiao Nianzhi: "Sir, you have to attend the morning meeting tomorrow."
Xiao Nianzhi:? ? ?
No, what is she doing as a seventh-grade official?
Is the wind blowing outside the palace?
But it’s impossible not to go.
For the Great Court Meeting, except for some special officials such as Yujijiu and Xiao Siye, most officials of seventh rank and above have to attend.
Xiao Nianzhi felt bad when he thought that he would have to bear the pain of getting up early.
Rushing from the city to the palace, at least the distance is shorter.
If from outside the city...
Regardless of whether the city gate can be opened or not, Xiao Nianzhi didn't even dare to think about the distance and time!
The matter of visiting Aunt Yu has been put on hold for the time being.
After returning home today, Xiao Nianzhi ate early, washed up, and then went to bed.
When she got up early tomorrow morning, she told the woad before going to bed, and then set the alarm clock in the study.
She should be lucky that the study is unlocked and has an electronic clock, otherwise...
Without an alarm clock and relying solely on manual labor, Xiao Nianzhi was really worried.
I'll be late...
This matter can be big or small, depending on His Majesty's mood.
Xiao Nianzhi didn't want to be late for the first time he attended the imperial meeting, leaving a deep impression on everyone.
So, get up early, get up early!
The next day, before dawn, Xiao Nianzhi was woken up by woad.
When I opened my eyes, the alarm clock hadn't even gone off.
The meeting started at Mao o'clock, but many officials were involved in life and death. Under normal circumstances, some people would line up at the palace gate after mid-Yin o'clock.
Xiao Nianzhi calculated the time when he would leave home and the possible traffic jam on the road. The alarm clock was finally set at 3:30.
As a result, it was just after 3 o'clock, that is, just after the Yin Shi clock was sounded, Ji Lan called Xiao Nianzhi.
Seeing Xiao Nianzhi getting up and sitting there without moving, Jiulan didn't rush to urge her. Instead, she turned around to prepare the court clothes for Xiao Nianzhi, and at the same time called Walnut to boil water.
Aunt Qin also got up when she heard the noise. She had to prepare food for Xiao Nianzhi on the way.
Under normal circumstances, a large court meeting lasts for one and a half to two hours.
Of course, if there are a lot of things going on that day, it is possible to extend the time.
Plus, with the time spent on the road, it’s obviously impossible not to eat all the time.
However, what to eat and how to eat also need to be carefully considered.
Liquid food is definitely not allowed. Going to the toilet during court meetings must be recorded. When His Majesty turns around, he is in a bad mood, and he may start to criticize someone by name.
Therefore, it can only be a variety of dry food that is easy to carry and has a small taste.
Aunt Qin got up early and baked simple sesame cakes.
The dough was mixed last night. After rising overnight, the dough is now very soft and soft. The toasted white sesame seeds are mixed into it, and then rolled into a thin pancake, and then placed on the oil pan.
Fry until both sides are crispy and fragrant, then wrap it in oil paper, perfect for eating on the go.
The smell of flour and sesame is relatively small. When you get off the carriage and line up, the smell will dissipate quickly.
If Xiao Siye goes to the Dachao meeting, Aunt Qin will make sesame cakes like this.
After Xiao Nianzhi had washed herself and tidied up her clothes, the sesame cakes were baked and wrapped.
Aunt Qin was worried and warned her. Seeing Xiao Nianzhi get on the carriage and drive away, Aunt Qin whispered again: "This is my first time for the big girl to go to the Dachao meeting. I wonder if she will not adapt to this stop?" It took a few hours, it was really a hell of a lot of suffering!”
