Smokeless charcoal ignites a red fire that passionately embraces the copper-coloured shabu-shabu pot, in which white udon broth gurgles red slices of meat, green bok choy, white lotus root, brown matsutake mushrooms, black fungus, milky anchovy fillets, and grainy, crystal-clear quail eggs …..floating up and down and tumbling in the soup pot.
The two little girls were also peeling shrimps, opening oysters, unravelling abalone, cutting sea cucumbers, and from time to time, rolling them into the shabu-shabu pot.
As the ingredients tumbled, a stream of delicious aroma drifted in all directions and came to the surface, causing people to move their lips and teeth.
“It’s moving, it’s moving, it’s moving again ……Lol, it looks like the young masters are craving for more ……”Qin’er counted Li Shu’s foetal movements and watched as they became more and more frequent, giggling and squinting her eyes.
“These two little things, they’re the same as when Brother Zhu was little, they can’t walk away when they see something delicious.”
Li Shu couldn’t help but squint her eyes as well, her cherry mouth rising slightly, drawing out a beautiful arc.
“Cluck cluck cluck cluck, miss, quickly take a bite, if you don’t eat it, the little young master is going to turn over ……”
Qin’er held the seasoned sesame sauce dipping sauce, shabu-shabu a slice of lamb, dipped it in the sesame sauce, and attentively handed it to Li Shu.
Li Shu’s red lips slightly opened, brushing the lamb into the mouth, slightly squinting her eyes, chewing it up, after using it, her right hand picked up an embroidered handkerchief and lightly wiped the corners of her lips, and smiled slightly at Qin’er and other maids, “The flavour needle doesn’t poke.”
Qin’er and a few other maids immediately raised their eyebrows as if they had received the highest reward in the world.
Sure enough, after a mouthful of shabu shabu, the two little ones were pacified and the foetal movements were gentle.
Again, they were teased by Li Shu for being snackers.
In the cold winter months, with the cold wind blowing gently, enjoying a hot shabu-shabu in the curtained tent was truly a small blessing.
“Ya, fifth sister is really good at enjoying herself, curtain tent, soft couch, shabu-shabu ……It’s really enviable.”
Just as Li Shu was enjoying the shabu-shabu, Hudi heard a female voice with a long drawn out tail from the doorway.
Without looking, he knew it was Miss Six.
Sure enough, Li Shu looked up to see the Sixth Miss, who had a face of envy and jealousy, walking over, wearing a large red feather satin lapel coat, a large red gorilla felt, a jadeite hairpin on her head, and a jasper adorning her forehead.
The sixth young lady did have a face of envy and jealousy.
A envy and jealousy hate, the earth turtle five brother-in-law and merit, already is the fifth grade, and then promoted to the fourth grade. Such a young fourth-grade official, her fiancé son-in-law can’t even catch up. I’ve heard people say, like the earth turtle five brother-in-law like this, since the founding of the Ming dynasty there are not many.
The second envy and jealousy, the village aunt six sister’s stomach is too competitive, a pregnancy is one in a million twins.
Three envy and jealousy, other people pregnant, are out of shape, face value decline, how the village aunt six sister pregnant, only fat belly, at most face also slightly more meat, but even more beautiful than before, as if ……It seems that the breasts also become bigger, womanhood more than a few times more than, really angry individual!
Four envy and jealousy, although the village girl six sister after pregnancy does not bring jewellery, but she was on the body of that piece of red fox fur, but it is not, brown red, brown fox fur common, but so red red fox fur is rare, more expensive than the white fox fur. To know the ancient Meng Changjun have a white fox fur, have been recorded in the “Historical Records” to go, the village girl six sister even wore a than Meng Changjun’s white fox fur is more expensive red fox fur!Don’t you think it’s annoying?A village girl is worthy of it!I’d wear it if I were you.
I’ve heard that my second uncle did business with some Franco-geeks in the South Seas, and spent thousands of dollars to buy it, and went to the trouble of sending ten men to escort it all the way from the south to the capital.
The road cost not all have to be good hundreds of silver!
What did he say, the day is cold, afraid of freezing the pregnant daughter ……
Second uncle is also really, a village girl wild girl, you have spoilt her as the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty!Even a princess is not as well off as she is!
She doesn’t deserve it!
Five envy and jealousy hate, village aunt six sister pregnant, but so enjoy, other people pregnant are vomiting dark, hate to drink a mouthful of water to vomit, she is nothing like a person, eat well drink well, not affected at all!
Hmph!
I’m so mad at her!
“Yo, rare guest, what kind of wind blew sixth sister here?”Li Shu asked lazily.
“Sister has long wanted to come to see fifth sister, but the weather has been gloomy, two days ago it snowed again, sister was afraid of passing cool air to sister, so she hardened herself and didn’t come, today the sky cleared up, and the old ancestor was concerned about fifth sister’s health, so sister took the initiative to ask for an errand and came over to visit sister.”Sixth young lady suppressed the thick envy and jealousy hatred in her heart, hard to squeeze out a smile, sweetly returned.
Giggle, I’m sorry to trouble the old ancestor and sister, Uncle Zhang came to see me the day before yesterday, my body is fine, the two little ones are also fine, the foetal phase has stabilised.”Li Shu touched her pregnant belly with a smile on her face and said.
“Fifth sister, although the foetal phase has stabilised, but you can’t be careless, after all, there are two little babies in your belly. The old ancestor is distressed that you have a big belly, but also to manipulate the inside and outside, thinking to let me as a sister to help you look after the outside shop, my sister also want to help my sister to bear ……”Sixth Miss said with a look of goodwill.
At these words, Li Shu couldn’t help but roll her eyes, I said why did you come over upside down, so it was the idea of hitting my shop.
What heartache I have a big belly, want to kindly help me look after the shop, is not to want to empty gloves, if you let you look, look at look, not long after, shop can be you look into an empty shell ……
Now, even the old ancestor also disregarded the skin of the meddling, it seems that the economic situation of the marquis house is unbearable to a certain extent.
It seems to be possible ……
Thinking of this, Li Shu could not help but reveal a bright smile, intimate to the sixth young lady beckoned the pink little hand, a face touched, said: “Thank you for the old ancestor and sister care, sister has the heart, sister heart touched tight, sister quickly come over to sit, qin child quickly go to fetch a set of cutlery to the last time in the palace of the eunuch Feng returned the gift of a set of tableware of the town of Jingdezhen, which one to use, as well as father sent someone toSend a set of ivory chopsticks, also take a pair over ……”
It’s completely like a sisterly love, too much sisterly love, biological sisters are not so close.
In the face of Li Shu’s enthusiasm, the sixth young lady was instantly confused, who am I?!Where am I?What am I going to do?
Originally, Sixth Miss was ready to meet Li Shu’s cold mockery, after all, she came over this time, borrowing the name of her old ancestor, in the name of helping Li Shu to share the burden, but actually wanted to get her hands on Li Shu’s shop.
She felt that Li Shu is as smart as anything, must be able to detect, is the hope that the name of the old ancestor can suppress her, that is, by her cynicism a meal, as long as the hands of one or two shops on the value of …….
However, I never expected Li Shu to be so enthusiastic!
This was completely out of Miss Six’s expectation!
Sixth Miss was confused!
Fifth sister can’t really think that I’m really kind enough to help her look after the shop and share the burden for her, can she?
A pregnancy is foolish for three years?
Does it really work that well?
After pregnancy, the IQ is pulled down by the sharing of the two little babies?
This way ……It’s really great!!!
After some brainstorming, the sixth young lady couldn’t help but be happy, and in her heart, she was already laughing with her waist up to the sky, and had already begun to envision the scene of moving gold and silver after getting her hands on Li Shu’s shop and enriching herself. ……
