Chapter 356: The fool is enlightened
Putting it aside, Xu Hui looked quietly, watching Li Zheng skillfully making fire, killing fish and cutting vegetables, and stir-frying meat.
Li Zheng prepared a bowl of tofu fish soup, and said to Xu Hui who was standing behind him: "I am used to it alone. I like to do everything myself. To be honest, even the inner warehouse was washed by myself."
"Puchi..." Xu Hui couldn't help laughing.
Li Zheng continued: "There are also people who don't have to be humble all day long, and they don't salute all day long. You also know that I have been born in a bitter cold since I was a child and are not used to the rules of wealthy families. Don't be too law-abiding, don't be allowed to salute or humble. This is my rule."
"I understand." Xu Hui nodded.
Li Zheng put the dishes into the pot and fryed them and said, "I will find a way to give you some things to do, and you can learn to settle accounts."
Xu Hui said, "I can settle the accounts."
"Okay, I just happened to be missing the account. You will be responsible for managing my account in the future. My money is very rich." Li Zheng said after he finished cooking: "Although counting the money every day until the cramps in his hands are very good, it is also very painful."
Xu Hui nodded and wrote down Li Zheng's words.
"You have to learn some math skills to settle accounts and learn how to use abacus. When necessary, you have to help the aunts in the village work and do some farm work. If you don't think you are tired of farm work."
"We do whatever the Chang'an Order asks us to do. We are people from Chang'an Order."
Li Zheng skillfully used a shovel to stir-fry the dishes in the pot and continued: "You will take care of those palace maids in the future, and you will arrange food, clothing, housing and transportation in the village. In a few days, you will go to the academy and ask Daniu and others to teach you mathematics."
"I understand." Xu Hui said.
What kind of man can cook so skillfully?
In Xu Hui's perception, these things should be what a woman from a family should do.
Li Zheng said that the kitchen was dirty and messy and asked himself to go out.
It is said that a gentleman is far away from the kitchen. It seems that just as the rumors in Chang'an are rumored that Li Zheng is not a gentleman.
But today, looking at Li Zheng, I feel that this man is not a gentleman but is more like a gentleman.
Xu Hui observed Li Zheng. The first feeling this man gave him was respect.
This feeling is very good, some are not care about the details and some are willing to demote themselves.
Although she was in the palace for not long, Xu Hui had heard of the story between Li Zheng and Princess Changle.
Xu Hui said: "If you don't hide it from Chang'an Order, many palace maids in the palace regard the matter between Chang'an Order and Princess Changle as a good story in their hearts."
Seeing that Li Zheng didn't speak, Xu Hui had to stop talking.
Li Zheng is a poor family, and Princess Changle is the most loved princess of His Majesty today.
The two knew each other again, and Xu Hui knew since she was a child that marriage was all the words of her parents' orders and matchmakers.
Many girls are very eager for such feelings and marriages, but they dare not think about it.
When the food was served, Li Zheng worked hard for an hour and cooked more than a dozen dishes.
The millet and rice in the pot is already cooked.
Li Zheng took out the chili peppers and said to the group of palace maids: "Do you eat chili peppers?"
The palace maids lowered their heads and looked timid.
Li Zheng felt that he was a little abrupt again, so he put the pepper on the table and said, "If you want it, you can add it yourself and you can have a meal."
A group of palace maids still stood and dared not speak or look up.
They are very reserved and seem to be a little unwilling to let go because of the discipline in the palace for a long time.
Li Zheng said to them again: "Sit and eat."
The palace maids were still moving and standing.
I looked at Xu Hui on the side, and it seemed that she was not so afraid of life. She was all a group of little girls and was not familiar with the world.
Li Zheng once again despised Li Shimin when he was about to be sent to the palace at such a young age.
"Xu Hui, you arrange for them to have dinner, and you will take care of them from now on." Li Zheng simply ignored it.
Xu Hui nodded and explained to the palace maids. Then they sat down and had dinner around the table.
At the beginning, they only took a few bites, and soon the palace maids started eating with a feast.
Xu Hui savored it carefully. Just as the rumor in the palace, the food here was delicious.
No wonder His Highness, His Highness, His Highness, His Highness, His Highness, and His Highness, all like to come to Jingyang, including His Majesty today.
Li Zheng sat down again and sighed.
Li Chongyi said: "It's time for me to go back to Chang'an, too."
"Brother Chongyi walked slowly."
Li Zheng found his aunt in the village and brought some clean clothes in the village.
The palace maids' clothes were thin and looked too revealing.
It can easily make people angry.
It was only after these palace maids had dinner and changed their clothes that they felt much more comfortable.
A boy was always a bit conspicuous when he walked in the village following a group of girls. The villagers looked over curiously and talked about where so many girls came from behind Li Zheng.
Send these girls to the academy and ask Daniu to teach them how to use abacus and learn some simple mathematical techniques.
They will have to settle the accounts in the future. There are not many empty houses in the village, so Li Zheng had to settle them all in his new house first.
This new house has been built, which was lived in by the villagers when they got married, and it is the largest house in the village.
The house is also made in the style of a large house in Chang'an.
It's enough to store thirty girls.
"First let them get familiar with the environment, and then let them follow their aunts to do farm work." Li Zheng said to several aunts.
Seeing several aunts looking at him strangely, Li Zheng explained: "These are all rewards from His Majesty, and I will work for me."
The aunt smiled strangely and said, "We are finally enlightened."
Another aunt said, "That's right, collect a few more girls so that it's better to leave a back for our village."
"It's a big deal to stay."
"It's better to have a few more."
...
Listening to these aunts' discussions, Li Zheng couldn't stand it.
Just as he walked back to his horse circle, he was blocked by Li Daxiong.
Li Daxiong said in an inverted voice: "Go to the house to talk."
"Okay." Li Zheng nodded.
When the father and son sat opposite each other, Li Daxiong looked at his son and said, "You are sixteen years old this year."
Li Zheng nodded and said, "I know."
Li Daxiong continued, "You should be a grown-up at the age of sixteen."
Li Zheng nodded.
Li Daxiong asked in a low voice: "Where do those girls come from?"
The news in the village is actually quite closed, and ordinary villagers will not inquire about Chang'an.
The villagers usually don’t know what happened in Chang’an.
Li Zheng explained to Li Daxiong: "I don't know what's wrong. Your Majesty was in a good mood and rewarded me with more than 30 palace maids."
"Reward?" Li Daxiong asked back.
Li Zheng nodded.
Li Daxiong touched the stubble on his chin and said, "You are about to marry a princess. Your Majesty will give you so many palace maids?"
