4. Song Feng Shui Moon
Fu Shaoyun walked up to Su Xi, leaned over, pinched her pink and tender face, and asked, "Why have you lost weight?"
Fu Shaoyun is 16 years old and has a tall appearance and slender figure. When he stood in front of Su Xi, he blocked all her sight. Su Xi covered her cheeks and leaned back, staring at him with round almond eyes. Her face was not a steamed bun, so how could he pinch her face as soon as he met?
The little girl's eyes were moist and bright, like the clearest water in the mountain stream in the morning. With the blink of her thick eyelashes, a butterfly perched. Fu Shaoyun looked at Su Xi's dissatisfaction and smiled softly: "The little girl is still round and round."
Fu Shaoyun took out an oil paper bag from his collar and opened it. There were several complete rose cakes lying inside. He held Su Xi's little hand and put the rose cake in Su Xi's palm. "I happened to pass by Yuhelou today and bought your favorite snacks. Come and try it."
Yuhelou is famous for pastries, among which rose cakes, pine nut lily pastry and date paste cakes are very popular. Su Xi likes rose cakes because they taste sweet and soft and crispy. If Fu Shaoyun brought this to her half a month ago, she would have been very happy. Now Su Xi is in a dilemma. Looking at the attractive rose cakes in her hand, she doesn't know what to do with them.
If she had eaten, wouldn’t all her efforts have been in vain?
Fu Shaoyun didn't see Su Xi's entanglement, and his eyes turned and landed on the little radish head behind him. He was stunned for a moment, and he smiled with a crooked mouth: "Little guy, what are you doing to glare at me?"
Su Baiyu's hand holding the rope into a small fist must have been so angry that he said for a long time: "...I will compensate me for the sparrow."
Fu Shaoyun didn't understand why, after Su Xi explained, he suddenly realized and smiled loudly: "Isn't it just a sparrow, I'll catch it for you, you can get as much as you want."
As he said that, Tingyan really prepared the millet again and caught the sparrows with Su Xi and Su Baiyu.
Su Li stood under the corridor column, looked at the three people in the yard who were in high spirits, and smiled silently.
When he got home yesterday, he heard Madam Cui say that Youyou brought Bo Ge'er to Hualutianxiang. He was very surprised. Bo Ge'er was unwilling to get close to others. Su Li knew better than anyone else. Except for himself and Madam Cui, he hardly talked to anyone. Originally, Su Li was worried that Youyou would not be able to take care of her, after all, she was also a child. Now that he saw this, he was too worried. It might be a good thing for Brother Bai to get in touch with Youyou. Look, aren't they having a good time now?
Su Xi fed the last piece of rose cake into Su Baiyu's mouth, and said reluctantly: "Eat more for every child to grow fast. The men in our Su family are all proud and majestic, so Brother Bai can't hold back."
Su Baiyu's cheeks were bulging. Hearing Su Xi's words, he chewed and swallowed silently.
Fu Shaoyun, who saw that all the snacks he bought entered Su Baiyu's stomach, raised two fingers and gently flicked Su Xi's forehead, and said, "Don't you like to eat the rose cakes from Yuhelou the most? Why don't you eat a bite today?"
Su Xi naturally couldn't say that she was on a diet, otherwise Fu Shaoyun would have to find out the truth about her reason, so he said: "I want to keep my stomach and eat the roasted sparrow for a while."
Just because Su Xi suddenly remembered that a large part of the reason why she grew fatter and fatter in her previous life was Fu Shaoyun's credit. A great pleasure in Fu Shaoyun's life was that she could bring her all kinds of delicious food, delicacies and delicacies from all over the world. In the end, she not only raised Su Xi's mouth and also fed Su Xi's body.
With ulterior motives, Su Xi thought silently.

Half an hour later, Fu Shaoyun caught a total of eight sparrows. He asked the people in the kitchen to clean up the sparrow's internal organs, and set up a fire in the yard of the fragrant flowers in the open air, and sat in the snow to roast the sparrows. Su Xi moved a small piece and sat on his right hand, Su Li and Su Baiyu sat on the left. After a while, the sparrow meat was roasted and a scent came.
Fu Shaoyun handed Su Xi the first roasted sparrow.
Su Baiyu turned his head and pulled Su Li's sleeves. His bright eyes were like black pearls washed by water, "Dad..."
Su Li stretched out his big palm, rubbed Su Baiyu's little head, and turned the roasted sparrow in his hand with the other hand, saying, "Don't worry, it'll be fine in a while."
Su Baiyu stopped urging and waited quietly.
"What did I say smell so fragrant? It turns out that you are secretly roasting sparrows here!"
As soon as Su Xi took her first bite, a crisp sound came from behind her. She turned around and saw two eleven-two-year-old girls standing at the door of Hualutianxiang, wearing apricot red little jackets embroidered with lotus patterns walking in front, looking at Su Xi with a smile: "Okay, Sister Xi, you don't even call me when you eat roasted sparrows. It's too unkind."
Su Xi stood up and shouted, "Sister Tang." Then she looked at the girl wearing a concubine-colored floral patterned cloak behind Tang Wan, paused, and said, "Sister Yi."
The wife of Fu Hongsheng, Fu Hongsheng of Qingguo, was a cousin of Mrs. Tan and Mrs. Su, who came from the Tan family in Bozhou. Therefore, Fu Shaoyun and Fu Yi were Su Xi's cousins and cousins.
Fu Yi was twelve years old this year. When she was eight years old, she was famous for her talent in the poem "Early Spring Fu", and was praised by Zhou Yuan, a great poet of poetry. Nowadays, although Fu Yi is not old, she has become popular in the circle of noble women. Both appearance and manners are excellent. Fu Yi smiled slightly and replied: "Cousin Xi, Cousin Li."
Su Xi knew that Fu Yi was just making a name for herself now. After two or three years, her talent and reputation gradually became far away. She was a noble lady with both talent and beauty in the capital. She became famous and said that the threshold for going to the Duke of Qingguo's mansion to propose marriage was about to be broken.
Su Xi stared at the sparrow on the iron mark and suddenly lost her appetite.
When Fu Yi was both famous in her previous life, she was studying in a clan school. Although Su Xi's talent was not inferior to Fu Yi, because she was young and most people at that time judged people by their appearance. At that time, Su Xi's round and fat tuanzi's figure was really not appreciated, which widened the gap between the two. People in the Dayan Dynasty praised "beauty as a priority", and having a good face was enough. Wouldn't Fu Yi be more popular with talent and beautiful appearance?
Therefore, it is normal for a person who is as mature and obedient as Li Yan to fall in love with Fu Yi.
But since Li Yan likes Fu Yi, why did he agree to marry her? After marrying her, he still pretends to be someone else in his heart, which really makes Su Xi angry.
Seeing Su Xi pursing her pink lips and silent for a while, Tang Wan couldn't help but hit her with her elbow: "Sister Xi?"
Su Xi was in a daze and met Tang Wan's caring gaze. She gave the roasted sparrow in her hand to Tang Wan, and said in a relaxed mood: "Sister Tang, let me eat it. I have eaten too much breakfast today, and I'm still holding on now."
Tang Wan was the daughter of Tang Huaikang, the salt transport envoy of Lianghuai. Tang Huaikang and the eldest master Su Zhen were classmates and friends in the early years, and they had a close relationship with each other. Tang Wan often followed his mother Tian to visit Su's mansion, and over time he became close friends with Su Xi. Today, Tang Wan came with his parents, and just as the people from the Duke Qing's mansion were there, there was no choice but to bring Fu Yijiuer to find Su Xi.
Tang Wan and Fu Yi had no friendship. They were not from the same place and didn't say much along the way.
Tang Wan took the iron tag, took a big bite, and said, "Is this what you roasted? The sparrow meat is quite tender, the taste is just right, and the craftsmanship is good."
Su Xi blushed and subconsciously looked at Fu Shaoyun next to her.
It just so happened that Fu Shaoyun was also looking at her, with a faint smile on his lips. He clearly said nothing, but it just gave Su Xi an inexplicable sense of guilt.
Fortunately, Su Lingrong and Su Lingyun also walked towards this side, distracting everyone's attention. The two of them greeted Tang Wan and Fu Yi, and then sat between Su Xi and Fu Yi and started a warm conversation with Fu Yi. Su Xi didn't want to be next to Fu Yi, so she was so happy to give way to them.
Su Lingrong said: "Yi Jie'er's clothes look so beautiful, and the pattern on the collar is very unique. I wonder which embroidered it by the embroiderer?"
Fu Yi smiled and said, "It's Xiu Chunju's clothes."
Su Lingrong and Su Lingyun both showed envy on their faces.
Su Lingyun even exaggeratedly: "It is said that Taoists rely on clothes and Buddhas rely on gold clothes. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are the fairy daughters in the sky." Seeing Fu Yi but smiled, Su Lingyun asked again: "It is said that Xiu Chunju's clothes are hard to find, so he only makes those ten pieces every year, and they are ordered by the empresses in the palace early on. I wonder how Sister Yi got them?"
Fu Yi looked at Fu Shaoyun opposite and said, "It was given to me by my brother."
These words successfully moved Su Lingyun and the other two to Fu Shaoyun. Su Lingyun looked at Fu Shaoyun, who looked like a jade-like and handsome, with a slightly red face, bit her lips and said, "Cousin Yun, is the sparrow on your hand cooked?"
Fu Shaoyun smiled with peach blossom eyes, but he didn't look at Su Lingyun. He flipped through the iron mark in his hand, and saw that it was almost baked, he said, "It's cooked." As he said, he raised his eyes to look at the absent-minded girl beside him, handed the iron mark to her and said, "Cousin Xi, you eat it."
A sparrow didn't have a few taels of meat in total. Su Xi refuted Fu Shaoyun's face again and again, not to mention that in front of many people, she said, "Thank you, cousin Shaoyun."
The smile in Fu Shaoyun's eyes became deeper: "You're welcome."
Su Lingyun's face was intertwined with blue and white, and she was quite embarrassed.
*
After eating the roasted sparrow, Su Li rarely had time, so she accompanied Su Baiyu to play elsewhere. Fu Shaoyun also said goodbye and returned to the front hall.
As the master, Su Xi led Fu Yi and Tang Wan to the backyard to visit the garden, which was just a walk to get rid of food.
Su Lingyun, Su Lingrong and Fu Yi walked in front, while Su Xi and Tang Wan were a little behind them.
Su Lingrong said casually, "I heard that Princess Shouchang will hold a peony banquet in Luhua Garden during the Chinese Yuan Dynasty, and Princess Qi will also be there."
Su Lingyun said with a strange "Huh" and blurted out: "Isn't the Princess Qi far away in Qizhou? When did she return to Beijing?"
King Wei Liankun of Qi is his current cousin. Since his fief of Qizhou, he has not entered the capital for many years.
Su Lingrong said: "I also heard my uncle talk to my ancestors by chance. It seems that I have summoned the King of Qi back to Beijing today. I will arrive in the capital in a few days." As he said that, he turned his head to look at Fu Yi, "Sister Yi, you are the one with Wanpingweng. Do you know when Princess Qi will arrive in the capital?"
Wanping Weng Gu Heli is the daughter of Princess Shouchang.
Fu Yi smiled and shook her head, "Heli won't tell me this."
Su Lingrong was obviously a little disappointed.
Although I was inquiring about the news about Princess Qi, how many people are really interested in Princess Qi?
The prince of the King of Qi, Wei Luzhi, Zhilan and Yushu, is handsome and handsome. That is the object that the noble daughters in the capital yearn for. This time, the King of Qi returns to Beijing, Wei Lu will definitely come back together.
Although Wei Shi was far away in Qizhou, his talent and reputation had already spread throughout Shangjing. People at that time praised Wei Shi for a saying: "The pine feng shui moon is not as good as Tsinghua University; the fairy dew pearl can only make it bright and smooth." Even the fairy dew pearl cannot describe his handsomeness. What kind of appearance should it be?
Although Su Lingrong had never seen her, it did not prevent her from depicting the appearance of Wei Xu in her heart.
Su Xi and Tang Wan walked slowly behind this room, watching the pear blossoms in the yard while having endless things to say.
Tang Wan said: "After the spring starts, my second brother will go to Sansong Academy to study. I want to go out and pick a farewell gift for him. You can accompany me? There are a lot of fashionable new materials outside, so we can still stroll around. What do you think, young people?"
