Along the way, Princess Le'an acted as a tour guide. She took her brother and sister-in-law to introduce the shops along the street.
I saw that Princess Le'an had been shopping a lot recently. She knew exactly who was selling what.
Queen Zhou took Le An's little hand and asked: "Sister, why are you so familiar? It seems that you go out shopping often. I really envy you."
Gong Yonggu followed Chongzhen and talked with Chongzhen.
After a while, the seven guards had a lot of things on their bodies. How could a woman go shopping without shopping?
Fortunately, Wang Chengen had experience in this and brought a bunch of five-tael silver notes in advance. He also brought a small bag of silver coins and golden melon seeds.
A restaurant called Fuxingju opened a stall on the street, specializing in fried enema. There were many people surrounding the stall, eating them in small oil paper boxes and with bamboo skewers inserted into them.
"Sister-in-law, their fried enema is very delicious. Every time my consort and I come here, we always buy some and take them back." Le An excitedly introduced it to Queen Zhou.
"Then buy a few boxes and try them." Queen Zhou looked at the fried golden enema and twitched her index finger.
Wang Chengen came up quickly to pay. The waiter put a small portion of the fried sausage into a small oil paper box, poured salted garlic juice on it, and put a few bamboo skewers on it. Then he could eat it around the stall.
Gong Yonggu introduced: "Brother, his fried enema is a time-honored brand in Beijing, and the reviews are very good. Whether the enema is delicious or not depends mainly on the cutting method. You see, the enema slices are thicker on one side.
The thin side is thinner. Because the thin side is heated at the same time, when the thin part is fried until crispy, the thick part is still soft and waxy on the inside. So when you eat it, you have two different textures. It is crispy and chewy, so it is particularly delicious."
Chongzhen inserted one into his mouth with a bamboo skewer and chewed it. It was indeed very delicious. This thing is a perfect match when paired with salty garlic sauce.
A few people were eating enema and chatting on the street when they saw the crowd in front of them parting and a strange car driving over.
There are two large carbide lights installed on the front of the car, like two eyes.
At the back is a stove with a fire, and someone is filling it with media. The machine is humming and steaming. It is coming from the north.
Empress Zhou had sharp eyes and said: "Look, sir, isn't the person holding a disc in the car Bingchan? The people behind are Dingyuan Bo and Zhang Shize."
Dududu! A whistle blew.
Chongzhen looked closely and saw that the person in the front of the car was none other than Xiao Niangpi. He was holding the steering wheel with both hands excitedly and shouted loudly: "Get out of the way, get out of the way. I'm running too slow. I won't be able to compensate you if I run over you."
Just consider yourself unlucky."
Many people recognized this as the Tushan stall in Dongchang, one of the street-cleaning stalls in Beijing. People on the street hurriedly avoided it. Suddenly, the middle of the road was cleared.
Seeing Tu Shanyue like this, she looked like a crazy woman.
Chongzhen shook his head and smiled bitterly. Fortunately, Yang Fan was willing to ask for him. Otherwise, Tushan's daughter would have been killed. It is said that Tushan was worried to death at first.
The prince-in-law looked at him in surprise. Uncle Dingyuan and Zhang Shize, the grandson of the British Duke, were filling the fire with media, while the other was tinkering with some strange handles, which seemed to control the speed. It looked very complicated, and it was a box with many gears assembled together.
body.
There were two women in the car, talking about gearboxes, brake pads, etc., but I couldn't hear them clearly.
Chongzhen knew one of them, Lin Yueru, the adopted daughter of Duke Wei. The other one he didn't know, looked young, but had a bookish air.
Wang Chengen said: "Sir, this is Uncle Dingyuan's car. It is said that it can run on fire. According to folklore, it is like Nezha's Hot Wheels."
Chongzhen said with a smile: "You old slave, you are talking nonsense. What kind of hot wheel is there? Uncle Dingyuan told me that this kind of thing is called a hot wheel mechanism. I didn't expect that he actually made it."
While talking, the car turned on its two headlights and drove away.
Princess Le'an said enviously: "Brother, you see Bingchan is really good at playing. How happy she is."
Chongzhen was also a little envious. Although he was an emperor, what he lacked most was freedom and the happiness of ordinary people.
The group of people visited all the shops on the street and were all a little tired. So, under the leadership of Princess Le'an, they went to the community to see the house that Yang Fan gave to the emperor.
A group of people came to the gatekeeper, and Wang Chengen quickly showed his access certificate. Seeing the strict access control here, Chongzhen was a little surprised and said: "This community takes safety very seriously. Idle people can't get in."
"Of course, brother, think about it, the only people who can buy houses here are officials and wealthy businessmen. If it is not safe, who would dare to live here, wouldn't Uncle Dingyuan's house be lost?" Princess Le'an said.
Entering the courtyard of the community, I found that the scenery here is so beautiful.
It is simply a garden design, with many fiery red leaves like flames. The scenery changes as you move through the community. The design is very exquisite, especially the small river that runs through the community. There are promenades and pavilions along the river. Although it is night, there are many people.
Fishing under the street lights.
"Can you catch fish when fishing in this black sky?" Chongzhen asked strangely.
The prince-in-law explained: "My eldest brother doesn't know something. Fish like light. Fishing under street lights is better than during the day."
The group of people walked across an exquisite wooden bridge and came to the south bank of the river, which was full of villas. Princess Le'an led everyone to the best and largest set of doors in the middle of the south bank.
"Brother, this is my home, right next door. I'll ask some of my servants to clean it up for you."
Chongzhen nodded. After all, it has been half a month since the house was renovated and handed over. It does need to be cleaned.
The door here was locked. Wang Chengen quickly took out the key to open the door and entered the courtyard. The courtyard is not big but has small bridges and flowing water. It is very elegant. There are several green bamboo clumps dotted in the corners and some elegant strange stones.
As soon as she entered the hall on the first floor, the princess directed her servants to light the lamps.
Looking at the two-story hall, the shiny wooden floors are visible. There are leather sofas in the living room and a fireplace. The fireplace can be used by the whole family to talk at night, giving it a family atmosphere.
There is also a large kitchen, dining room, servants' room, etc. on the first floor. The basement floor is a gym and swimming pool.
The second and third floors are bedrooms, study rooms, living rooms, etc. There are also terraces and sun rooms.
"Brother, sister-in-law, please take off your fur coats. It's too hot in this room to wear furs." With that, Le'an helped them take off their mink furs and hang them on the hangers on the wall. He asked his servants to clean the rooms.
at.
"It's really warm here." Concubine Tian said. As soon as she came in, she felt the heat rushing towards her face.
"Here, the heat comes from here," Princess Le'an stepped on the ground in front of the window with her little leather boots, which was a long and one foot wide gold-plated steel grille. "The radiator is underneath. The heat is coming from inside.
The water is hot twelve hours a day. I wear pajamas at home."
"Sister, where is the bathroom you mentioned? I want to see how the porcelain decoration looks like."
"Sister-in-law, come with me," Le An took the three sisters-in-law to the bathroom on the first floor. After a while, exclamations came from inside. It was obvious that they were novel and surprised by the facilities in the bathroom.
Gong Yonggu took out his cigarette and was about to hand it to Chongzhen. He seemed to think of something and quickly took it back. Chongzhen smiled and said, "I have some here too, so smoke mine."
No more today.
