118. Chapter 118 Flowers Like Rain: Fireworks Allure the City for Life
As expected, the carriage went straight out of the city and headed straight to the secluded suburbs. Along the way, two little maids sat in the car with Roujia, and were considerate and considerate to her. But they didn't speak, so Roujia asked. When will you answer a short sentence or two in a short answer?
In this way, Roujia naturally knew how to talk, so she no longer spoke all the time.
After driving on the official road outside the city for another two quarters of an hour, it seemed that it was already dark outside. When the carriage stopped, I saw a hand reaching out to Roujia, "Thank you all the hardships all the way! I shouldn't have let you come so far, but there is no such scenery in the city, so I'm so worried that you have been on a carriage for so half a day."
"Ha, young master is so serious, how can he be so delicate?" The little maid lifted the curtain of the car, and Roujia also got up. When she went out today, she wore an embroidered dress with algae patterns after the rain, and then put it on her head. A purple crystal on the hairpin was shaking without applying powder to her, which made her skin look better than snow and her eyes look crystal clear. There were also a few light-colored tassels flying on her waist, which seemed to have a bit of a fairy-like elegance.
When he got off the bus, Xiling looked at it in a slight smile and said, "This dress is very contrasting with your skin tone, and it is very unworldly."
Roujia replied with a faint smile and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xie, praise me."
Xiling Hun stopped talking and just led her inside. In front of her was a quiet and elegant villa, a small courtyard built along the mountain. The carriage was parked, and a small lake was in front of her.
There are many lush osmanthus trees planted by the lake. These trees are very old at first glance, and it is also the time for the fragrance to overflow. If it is midsummer, the shade will inevitably be thick. But it is too late at this time, so I can only see it vaguely. There are some colorful koi growing at the bottom of the lake.
Roujia walked all the way and thought to herself, I wonder how green the scenery around this courtyard should be in spring?
After entering the courtyard gate, Xilingxiu spoke and said, "It was time to pick you up earlier, but I was very busy today, so I came a little late. Coincidentally, the owner of this villa is a friend of mine. The chef of his family was the chef in Tianxianglou, Luodu, Qin State. I remember that Miss Chuchu was from Qin and left her hometown to come to Zhongjing. I guess she hadn't eaten her hometown dishes for a long time, right?"
Roujia was unwilling to be so thoughtful. He was a little moved at the moment and smiled and said, "Thank you, young master, for paying attention. Today I am lucky to be able to taste the skills of Chef Luodu, and I will give you all the blessings."
Xiling smiled slightly, and when the eyes of the two of them met, Roujia's cheeks were slightly red.
After entering the inner courtyard, I saw the corridor in the courtyard twisting and the plum blossoms were clear and cold. The sky gradually darkened, and two maids were shaking under the corridor with gauze lamps, taking down the gauze lamps hanging in the corridor one by one. .
Sitting in a flower hall facing south, the flower hall is only two meters square, divided into two rooms inside and outside with a green gauze cabinet. A small elm-wood round table is placed in the outside house.
The two of them sat down accordingly, and a maid immediately brought hot tea.
Roujia sat there quietly, and after taking a sip of tea, she came in with a tray, placed two pairs of bowls and chopsticks on the table and took a plate of snacks. She looked at it and only recognized that one of them was Luodu. A common fried bread in wine shops.
The imperial chef in the palace made such buns in a monotonous way, and Roujia didn't like them. Only once, she asked her uncle's cousin many times, and the one he quietly brought in from outside was said to be the most famous Tianxiang in Luodu. She only ate the chef's skills of the building once and then remembered them in her heart.
