Chapter 190: Idle Man Yun Huachun

"When I go back, it will be too late for spring plowing..."

As usual, the family had some quarrels between the parents to find space.

The next day, someone came from the palace and said that they had given Yun Huachun something as a reward.

Yun Huachun felt relieved when he saw that the father-in-law who took the lead in issuing the decree was Zhong Da.

"The Baron was frightened yesterday. Your Majesty and the Emperor asked me to send some gifts to calm the Baron's shock," Zhong Da said.

Yun Huachun took a look and saw that they were some medicinal materials and cloth.

Yun Huachun did not dare to refuse the reward from the palace, so he obediently accepted it.

"Uncle Zhong, are you okay?" Yun Huachun thanked the reward and stepped forward to ask.

"I'm very good, but the capital is very strict inside and outside now. You must not be lax and careless just because you are at home." Zhong Da woke up and said.

"Don't worry, I will definitely be more alert than when I fled." Yun Huachun assured seriously.

Seeing that Zhongda was safe and sound, Yun Huachun felt at ease.

Later, news came from the concierge that various princes and ministers in the capital had delivered many gifts to the house, including many medicinal materials, all for him.

Those adults originally wanted to visit him in person, but because people in the capital were in panic at the moment, it was difficult to do so, so they dragged the housekeeper to pass on a few words.

After hearing this, Yun Huachun thought to himself, could he be afraid of the White Dragon Envoy who was waiting outside the mansion?

Before Yun Huachun could get out the things, the snow fell heavier in the sky.

Many people's houses inside and outside the city were collapsed by the weight of snow.

Yun Huachun raised his head and looked at the wooden beams and the several stoves in the house.

There is a room full of charcoal in the side room, which is kept burning every day.

Each of the children in the Yun family has only one stove. When the weather is cold in winter, the two brothers stay together in the same room to keep them warm.

Then he called the housekeeper, "Didn't the house collect a lot of medicinal materials a few days ago?"

"Take out those medicinal materials, except those given by the palace, and deliver them to the victims. Find a yamen specializing in disaster relief and send them to them. Don't say they were given by me. Tell them the names of the mansions that delivered the medicinal materials."

"If you have warm clothes or valuables, send them over too," Yun Huachun said.

"Please remove some of the stoves in this house."

"How can this be done? It's very cold in the capital in winter. What if, Baron, you catch the cold?" the housekeeper disagreed.

It was his intention to put so many stoves, it was the intention of the master of the house.

"Just leave one. I'm strong and not afraid of the cold." Yun Huachun insisted.

The servants in the mansion couldn't resist Yun Huachun, so they removed some of the stoves but replaced them with larger stoves.

Yun Huachun didn't have any objections either.

I took out some paper and pen in my room and pressed on the name card sent by the housekeeper.

Write letters of apology one by one to those who sent you gifts.

The content is as follows:

Sir XXX, you and I have never met, but Sir, you are kind-hearted and have sent me so many medicinal materials. Now that I am cured, these medicinal materials are no longer needed in the house.

It happened that there was a snowstorm in the capital, so I took the initiative here and delivered the medicine you sent to the people, using your name.

These medicines are more suitable for the common people than for me.

I am here to thank you on behalf of the people.

After writing one letter of apology, Yun Huachun took up pen and wrote another one.

Except for the main title, the other content is almost the same.

The person from the Ministry of Justice praised him for his ability to solve the case, and the person from the Ministry of War said something about the strength of the soldiers and horses, etc...

They all followed the list sent by the housekeeper and thought carefully about the job titles.

After writing these letters, Yun Huachun felt extremely bored and the room became a little colder, so he put on thick clothes and wandered around the house.

He looked left and right.

There was nothing much to see in the ice and snow, even the plum blossoms in the corner were frozen and their flowers had fallen off.

There were a large number of ice skates on the eaves beside the waterside pavilion.

Yun Huachun ordered his servants to knock down all the ice skates to avoid hurting anyone.

Yun Huachun, who really couldn't find anything to do, suddenly saw the smoke from the kitchen in the distance.

"Are you cooking?" Yun Huachun asked.

The boy next to him nodded.

"It's almost lunch time, and the chef in the house should be cooking."

"Come on, let's go to the kitchen and have a look."

The Yun family has a simple population and their kitchen is not big.

Because several young masters came this year, including Yun Huachun, the housekeeper hired an extra cook who could cook.

There were two cooks, three women, and a boy who was keeping the fire in the house. When they saw Yun Huachun, they hurriedly knelt down.

"See you Sir." Everyone knelt down and saluted.

"You're welcome, you're busy with your business, I'll just come over and take a look." Yun Huachun said.

Everyone in the kitchen got up, but the master could not feel as comfortable as before in the kitchen.

Even my hands shaking when chopping vegetables were shaking.

Yun Huachun looked around the kitchen and saw that there was nothing to eat in the winter, just some things like radish and cabbage, which were frozen in autumn.

There is meat from chickens, ducks and fish, and the fish can swim freely in the tank.

Yun Huachun thought about what he had eaten in the past few days, and he was indeed a little tired of it.

"What are you doing today?"

"Tofu and fish soup, stir-fried yam, sliced ​​cabbage and meat, and... stewed chicken with yam mushrooms." The cook said cautiously.

These are the only ingredients that can be eaten in winter, and at most some pickles are added.

When I meet an important guest, I will take out the sugar and salt at home and cook some honey-glazed barbecue slices.

Yun Huiyan is not a person who attaches great importance to food. Moreover, he is not an ordinary person who can eat meat every day.

"How about I cook today?" Yun Huachun said.

The cook and woman in the kitchen immediately knelt on the floor.

Yun Huachun:......

"I can't stay with my grandfather for a long time. I'm worried that he won't be able to eat or sleep well, so I come to the kitchen to show my filial piety." Yun Huachun said.

He asked his servants to move a few boxes from his room, put on an apron, and prepared to show off his skills.

Seeing this, the housekeeper in the mansion also began to hesitate. The master was not at home. Should he invite some young masters to come over and persuade the master?

It is not appropriate for Sir Alex to cook in the kitchen.

After Yun Huachun put on the apron, he walked around for a while.

"You catch this fish, kill it, and then shave off the flesh without removing the bones, okay?"

"Yes." One of the tall and thin cooks said, his best skill is knife skills.

"You have to shave the fish along the backbone of the fish. Don't throw away the bones. They will be useful later." Yun Huachun said.

The cook nodded and followed Yun Huachun's instructions and took his time.

"Do you have any eggs at home? Bring some over."

Yun Huachun ordered the cooks in the room to work in an orderly manner.

The housekeeper felt relieved when he saw this.

It would have been better if Sir Alex had not done it himself.

The servants took Yun Huachun's box over and watched him take out a lot of things from it.
