"... this is the sweet clover dew in Suxin Pavilion. There are not many bottles a year."
"Really? Try my Magnolia dew. It's made by people in my room. She's dull, but she studies flowers a little. "
With the coming year of ambassadors from other countries, rose dew, as one of the offerings, started from the concubines in the Imperial Palace, and set off a "fragrant dew tide" from top to bottom.
Their daughters have a good complexion. They found that Xianglu is more stable and elegant than lanze cream. They can use Xianglu with rouge, makeup powder and even hair oil added to the dishcloth. It is most suitable for summer. If they can't help the high price, this light flower dew can shoot directly on their face.
Originally, this kind of thing also existed in the former dynasty. Firstly, it was imported. Few people knew how to make it, so it was difficult to make it, and very few people burned money for it. Secondly, soon after the flower dew spread to the former dynasty, the rivers and mountains changed their masters, and the Central Plains war raged. Small countries overseas took the opportunity to cut off their old tribute. In recent years, the sailors on the Fuhai side went out to sea to practice. With the help of good waves, they sent me to small countries. Accidentally, the waves were far away, Diplomatic relations with small countries have been re established.
Various fat and powder stores in the capital see business opportunities and develop flower dew one after another, while powerful families secretly let their servant girls who are good at perfuming seize the time to prepare. Recently, the topic of banquets in winter can focus on flower dew.
The little party in Princess Chang's house is no exception. There are two ladies showing off at the banquet.
The eldest princess looked strange. She had three bottles of rose dew given by the emperor. She didn't bother to mention it. It should be fun to show off their proud and proud appearance.
She also wanted to add to the game. The manager came to the back of the table: "if you tell me to go down, there will be a reward for those who can bring out flowers and dew."
When the news came to the lotus garden, everyone in the lotus garden was excited. The Pleiades tried to make flower dew. Naturally, it goes without saying that the maid who specially made fragrance wanted to show her face in front of the long princess. In order to reward her and seek a good future, she secretly rubbed and collected falling flowers to try.
Your job?
Give it to other servant girls.
The servant girl in charge of the bird's nest divided her work among the three servant girls under her, while she got into the room and learned to build cars behind closed doors.
"It's so annoying. We can't do anything for ourselves! Coral, are you so patient? " Hongzhu stamped her feet and was even more angry.
The bird's nest is like nothing. Sweep the fallen leaves in the yard into piles, wash your hands, sit in the original position of the servant girl, select the oranges in the basket at your feet, cut off the branches, draw a cross with a knife, uncover the skin and expose the orange flesh.
This kind of orange is called sour orange. Its flesh is sour and bitter. It is difficult to eat. Small animals dislike it, but its fruit aroma is long and smells charming - it smells moderate sweet and sour. If it is placed in the dining room, people who have no appetite will eat more. It is also used to create flavor, such as places smoked with wormwood, such as Gongfang, etc.
The servant girl in charge is responsible for selecting good sour oranges, pruning branches and leaves, and placing them where they should go.
"Her work is much easier than mine. It's too late for me to envy. I feel really good to experience it now. I'll do my own things later. Oranges matter." The bird's nest smiled and hummed a little song.
"You, you are hopeless!" Hongzhu was so angry that she left a sentence and ran away: "you love to do it yourself, I won't do it!"
The bird's nest smiles slightly, and the speed on the hand is accelerated.
Until the fruit supply in the dining room was achieved, the repeated mechanical action of the bird's nest suddenly changed, completely peel off the orange peel, tear off the white collaterals on the pulp, carve a rabbit according to the fruit petals, and the extra peel and pulp were taken away by her.
Wangyue has a good hand in sweet dew. Even she adds a special sour orange sweet dew to the rice to let the guests with anorexia eat it. The guest bought her sour orange sweet dew. It is said that his anorexia will not heal without medicine soon.
Bird's nest, as a person around the moon, naturally learned the craft of making fragrant dew.
The bird's nest is waiting for an opportunity to bring its fragrant dew into the sight of the manager. It won't be robbed by others, nor will it pull the hatred of a whole palace maid in the lotus garden. I didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly.
She peeled the sour orange and laughed.
The first one to find the change in the smell of the dining room was the sixth prince who came to be a guest. As soon as he was not careful, he filled his stomach round: "aunt, the sour orange in your dining room smells too much better than that in my nephew's house. This sweet and sour taste makes people can't help eating more bowls."
"Han goods, are not all the same sour oranges."
The eldest princess laughed and scolded. Her nephew praised her family for its delicious fruit smell. She was very happy.
The sixth Lord rubbed his hands and gained an inch:
"Nephew, can you have the cheek to ask for some sour oranges? Recently, Changxin has been very happy. She eats as much as she vomits. The whole person is haggard. My nephew is worried that in the long run, she and my unborn child are in danger. "
The eldest princess is one round older than the sixth Princess sun Changxin, but the relationship is very good. When she learned that Changxin was pregnant, she brought the sixth prince over and scolded her. She was young. If she had a child, he was in such a hurry. He didn't wait a year or two to let Changxin grow up and prepare for pregnancy after conditioning.
Now, hearing this, she said, "what does the imperial doctor say? I'll go and have a look tomorrow! "
Sixth Lord: "the imperial doctor said it was normal. He prescribed three doses of tocolysis medicine, but in the final analysis, he still had to eat Changxin."
"You, you, Changxin, are like this now. You still come out and eat with a round stomach."
The sixth Lord was wronged in his heart. This was not the one who called him.
"You say my sour orange smells good. Take it back and put it at the table to see if Changxin can eat at night."
With that, the eldest princess ordered someone to take out the sour orange in an inconspicuous position.
At the same time, they made a sound. The peel of sour orange was peeled and carved into a pattern of rolled grass and flowers, and the fruit petals were made into a charming little rabbit, which became a small landscape. The person in charge of the fruit was careful.
The long princess smiled and said, "just in time, you take it back. I think Changxin will like it too."
The sixth Lord sniffed closely. The orange juice was full of fruit petals. He couldn't help but want to stretch out his claws and touch one. The long princess looked forward to it. Unfortunately, at the last moment, he thought of sour orange. He smelled and his appetite was strong, but he ate it sour, bitter and astringent.
The long Princess regretfully lowered her eyes and couldn't see her nephew's silly expression. It's a pity.
The sixth Lord took the sour orange in the dining room and went back to try the effect.
The steward asked someone to fill up the fruits in the hall. The maids rushed in. The long Princess swept away her interest. Everything in the plate was not peeled. There were even sour oranges that were not good, which was far from the batch given to the sixth prince.
The manager looked at his words and expressions. He called the steward in charge of the fruit under the corridor and questioned who was responsible for the fruit furnishings in the dining room. The steward servant girl was called to ask questions and pushed the pot to the bird's nest.
Tonight, lotus garden is destined to have a sleepless night.
