Chapter 10 The Great Army Expedition

When he walked into the Ma family yard, he saw Zhu Rou holding a wooden sword in his hand, and sometimes stole his horse, and occasionally swept his legs. The scared puppies ran around with a humming moan.

"Brother, brother, look at my sword and can I kill monsters?" Zhu Chuang proudly showed off to Zhu Biao.

"Second brother, where did the dog come from?" Zhu Biao was a little surprised. There were no dogs here a few days ago.

"Immortal Li asked me to give it to you, saying it's winter..." Zhu Ren frowned: "There is also a big dog."

It should be prepared for food in winter. Zhu Biao nodded and told him not to cause trouble, saying, "Since it was sent by Empress Li, don't hurt them."

Looking around, Zhu Biao exclaimed: "Didn't it mean that there is still a big dog, where has the big dog gone?"

"The big dog is on the wooden fence over there, I'll go out and play now." Zhu Ren inserted the wooden sword to the side of his belt, rolled up his sleeves and crawled in.

A few seconds later, a sound came from the fence, and a barking sound of dogs came. Zhu Ren ran over with messy hair, and flew around with a wooden sword.

Behind his butt was a big dog that had been fat, following him tightly.

He looked panicked and ran towards Zhu Biao: "Brother, brother, drive it away quickly."

Zhu Biao stood aside, leaned forward and backward with a smile, pointing at the dog's rope and said, "I can't get through, it's tied up by the rope."

At mealtime, Ma and Concubine Li Shu of the history came back together. The two of them were combed neatly, talking and laughing, and they looked noble.

Several people gathered at the table, and the maid immediately retreated after serving four dishes and one soup.

The meal is simple, a plate of stir-fried vegetables, a plate of tofu, vegetarian meatballs, cold cucumbers, and half a pot of wine.

It is now August fifteenth, and the cucumbers are not fresh and crispy.

Cucumber was brought back to the Central Plains by Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions during the Western Han Dynasty. It was called Hu Gua. During the Five Barbarians and Sixteen Kingdoms, Emperor Shi Le of the Later Zhao Dynasty was taboo about the word "Hu", and Fan Tan, the Han minister of Xiangguo County, changed it to Cucumber.

Concubine Li Shu said: "Today's dish is very crisp and delicious. I'll try my sister's cold cucumber."

Zhu Chuang and Zhu Shi would be very unhappy when they saw these meatless dishes. It would be interesting to think about the pain of killing pigs when they were not meatless.

Ma nodded and smiled. These dishes were made according to Chongba’s requirements and tried to be frugal. After the founding of the country, the people were properly placed, so he had no worries.

"Biao'er, eat more. You must like to eat my cucumber." Concubine Li chuckled.

Zhu Ren and Zhu Li lowered their heads and had a bitter face. They wanted to flip through the vegetables and find a piece of meat to come out.

Zhu Biao frowned at the cold cucumbers that Li Shufei had picked up and said, "You eat more."

Zhu Biao has observed this Concubine Li Shu and Zhu Biao for a long time, because there were many historical legends, and even by the Chongzhen period, there were many statements.

Some people say that Concubine Shu is Zhu Biao's original biological mother. However, Zhu Biao believes that Concubine Li Shu cannot be the biological mother of the original.

The original body was born in the fifteenth year of Zhizheng.

Li Shufei's father, Li Jie, only joined Lao Zhu in the 16th year of Zhizheng (1355). At that time, Li Jie was twenty-six years old, and his daughter, Li Shufei, was at most 10 years old.

When Concubine Li Shu married Lao Zhu, her original body was already one year old.

So it's unlikely.

Ma noticed that Zhu Chuang and Zhu Cian were wearing dark circles and were a little listless, and couldn't help asking, "What did you two do last night?"

Zhu Chuang glanced at Zhu Biao, turned around and said vaguely, "Mom, I... asked Zhu Chuang last night."

Concubine Li Shu smiled and said, "You said, "

I kept my mouth shut... Zhu Qi immediately replied: "There is a big mouse in our room. It has become a monster. Let's fight monsters. Second brother, I can say that."

Mrs. Ma looked at her two sons and said, "On weekdays, take a break early and do your homework well. If you continue like this, you must become the Kitchen God."

"Hello, your elder brother, you should learn more from your elder brother." Concubine Li Shu also said.

Good brother?

Zhu Ren thought of just now, rolled his eyes at his job.

Zhu Biao: Although I catch monsters and let the dog chase my younger brother, I am still happy to use this, but I am a mature and good brother.

Pointing at the cucumber, Zhu Biao said to Zhu Ren and Zhu Li next to him: "You guys eat more cucumbers and wash your face with rice water a few times to ensure that your face is white and tender."

Suddenly, Zhu Biao felt that he was being watched by a pair of hot gazes. He stood up uncomfortable: "Mom, I'm full."

Ma nodded.

Concubine Li stood up, looked at Ma Shi and said to Zhu Biao: "Rice water can really make your skin white."

"Yes, I saw a doctor saying that you can use rice washing water, pearl powder and other whitening, especially cucumbers, are also good."

When I was a librarian, many female customers came to borrow whitening books, including those that describe watermelon peels and rice washing water, and milk is the best.

Before he finished speaking, Concubine Li had already picked up a plate of cucumbers and started eating. Ma smiled generously and said that he would take a few more wilted cucumbers.

Now in autumn, the cucumbers on the cucumber rack have wilted and can only be eaten after removing the skin.

"That... it's best to put cucumbers on your face in slices, but it's not suitable to be cold."

Li Shufei still had vegetable juice stuck to her cherry mouth. When she heard this, she subconsciously rolled out the vegetable juice with her tongue and sat dignifiedly and elegantly: "Let's use rice, how can you believe it to be whitened?"

A few days ago, I heard from the King of Wu that the prince caught monsters.

This time, it is incredible that you can use those things to whiten your face.

After that, Li Shufen politely gave Zhu Biao a tofu to let him eat more.

Zhu Biao looked puzzled.

Because he had to come over to help Lao Zhu deliver some food later, he was very busy these days, so Zhu Biao left after dinner.

Wu Wang Mansion, side courtyard.

Concubine Li Shu sat in front of the bronze mirror and said to the maid next to her: "Are you ready to wash rice water?"

"It's ready." The little maid replied sweetly.

Concubine Li Shu walked to the table, washed her face several times with rice washing water, and asked the little maid to start helping her with cucumber slices.

Knowing the reason, the little maid went to the maid's room to talk about the rice and water and cucumber after serving Concubine Li Shu.

By the way, Zhu Biao also mentioned.

"What? The prince really knows how to keep his face alive."

"Our prince is really powerful."

In this world, who would think that he is too beautiful? It is also something that every woman yearns for. The maids chattered in the room.

Zhu Biao asked Sanbao to wait in the yard, and moved his muscles and went to find his father Zhu Yuanzhang.

In the lobby of the front yard of the King of Wu Mansion, there were two personal soldiers outside the door, with expressionless faces and looking ahead.
