Chapter 511 Bet
Chapter 511 Bet
After arriving home, there was nothing to do, so Jiang Fubao simply went to the backyard kitchen.
Giving instructions to the cooks.
After she ordered the dishes, she went to the main room at the entrance to warm herself by the fire.
The maids were reliable and would light the charcoal stove in the afternoon so that their masters could feel warm as soon as they returned home.
After taking off his thick cloak with rabbit fur edges, Jiang Fubao sat on the chair and breathed a sigh of relief.
There was a pot of hot black tea on the charcoal stove in front of her, and a hemp rope was wrapped around the handle of the pot to keep it warm.
The eight teacups on the table were turned upside down to prevent dust from falling.
Jiang Fubao picked up the kettle, poured some hot tea into the cup, and put the kettle back again. The tea in the cup was reddish-brown and still steaming.
Just enough to warm my frozen hands.
"Huff~" Jiang Fubao blew on it, waited for a while, and then took a small sip.
Black tea is mellow, slightly bitter, smooth in the throat, and has a fragrant aftertaste. It is especially delicious.
"Zi'er, go get the can of candied chestnuts."
Jiang Fubao made a lot of candied chestnuts when he was not busy last month.
The purpose is to eat it with tea while warming yourself by the fire in winter.
She shouted to the maid standing at the door.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Jiang Fubao had already started eating chestnuts. She held the teacup in her left hand and a silver fork with a round chestnut stuck on it in her right hand.
As her mouth opened, half of the chestnut was instantly gone.
Chew a few times and take a sip of black tea.
The taste is absolutely amazing.
Just as she was enjoying herself, the Jiang family came back.
More than a dozen people suddenly rushed into the main room.
It suddenly became lively.
The opened can of candied chestnuts was eaten up by the Jiang family in a short while.
"It's so cold today. I'm afraid it will snow in the next few days." Jiang Shoujia also held the teacup like his granddaughter. He took a sip and then spoke slowly.
He was born into a farming family.
Its ability to perceive weather is second only to that of the Phoenix.
"Today I made a bet with Daqian Daner and the others, guessing when it would snow. I bet on today, but I don't know if it will snow today." Jiang Fubao snuggled up to his mother and spoke lazily.
After eating hot pot hot pot with his family in the evening, Jiang Fubao went back to his room.
I read the conversation book and practiced writing.
Xue Huan came up the stairs, walked into the room and said, "Miss, the bathtub is filled with water. Go take a bath quickly. Otherwise, it will be very cold at night and you will get sick easily."
"Okay." Jiang Fubao put down his pen, stood up and took off his jewelry.
Then he went to the next room and started to take off his clothes and take a bath.
When she came out again, her cheeks were slightly red, her outer coat was gone, and she was wearing the thick rabbit fur cloak she had worn during the day over her inner garment.
Jiang Fubao walked quickly into the house.
People are not cold just after taking a shower.
It was only a few steps away, so it was no big deal to feel some cold wind, especially since she was wearing a cloak.
The dirty clothes for changing were taken to the backyard by Xuehuan, and the maid will wash them tomorrow.
Jiang Fubao took off her cloak, picked up a medical book she had not read yet from the bookshelf, and got into bed. She put the pillow behind her waist, opened the book and read it carefully.
Before I knew it, the candle was about to burn out.
Xue Huan just came back from the backyard.
She was holding a tray with a cup of hot milk on it. It was originally hot, but after walking all the way from the backyard to the second yard, it had become warm due to the cold wind.
Just right for the entrance.
"Miss, drink your milk and go to bed early. I won't light this candle again." Because it was about to burn out, the candlelight was dim and Jiang Fubao could no longer see the words on the book.
She simply closed it and put it aside.
He took the cup from Xue Huan's hand and drank the warm milk in one gulp.
"Have you instructed the servants to keep watch at night?" After lying down, Jiang Fubao turned his head and looked at Xue Huan who was standing beside the bed.
"I told him to pay attention to the snow and remember the time. Don't worry, miss." Xue Huan helped her to tuck the quilt in and the candle was extinguished at this time.
Although the moon was hiding in the clouds, Xue Huan was too familiar with the room, so she could find her bed even in the dark.
She took off her shoes and got into bed.
The charcoal stove had long gone out.
The room got a lot colder.
But there was a hot hot water bottle in the bed of Jiang Fubao and Xue Huan respectively.
I don't feel cold at all.
The master and servant fell asleep one after another, and their breathing sounds were surprisingly consistent.
"Wow, it's snowing." Jiang Fubao was awakened by the sound of people talking outside.
She opened her sleepy eyes, put on a rabbit fur cloak, and got out of bed.
Walking to the balcony, what comes into view is a silvery-white color.
The ground, trees and roofs are all covered with snow. Looking at the thickness of the snow, it has been snowing for at least half the night and it hasn't stopped yet. It is still falling. It is like entering a fairy tale world, so beautiful that it seems unreal.
Xuehuan, go ask the night watchman when the snow began to fall.
Jiang Fubao had no time to appreciate it, she simply stretched her head and shouted to Xue Huan below.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Xue Huan answered while running. She handed the basin in her hand to the maid beside her.
So today another maid helped Jiang Fubao wash and dress.
When she got dressed and walked out of the house, Xue Huan just came up the stairs.
"Huh, huh, Miss, I asked clearly and they said it started at midnight." Xue Huan was breathing heavily and her voice was a little unclear.
Jiang Fubao heard it clearly.
She immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
I was almost standing outside the clinic and shouting that I was a pig.
"Okay, let's go to the main room downstairs to have breakfast. I have to go to the clinic early." Jiang Fubao couldn't wait any longer.
She wanted to see the embarrassing look on Daqian's face as they stood together at the door of the clinic.
At that time, at the gate of Chang'an Town, a line of carriages were lined up to leave the city.
Driving towards Lianshan Town.
Because of the snow on the road, it was extremely difficult for the carriage to move.
"I am a pig—"
"I am a pig—"
"I am a pig—"
"..."
At the end of the Chen hour, a row of people, both men and women, stood outside the gate of Yaoxiang Kitchen. Each of them shouted "I am a pig" three times, attracting many people to stop.
Daqian Dawang didn't feel embarrassed or nervous.
But the maids were so embarrassed that they wished they could dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
Jiang Fubao was laughing so hard that he couldn't stop.
After shouting three times, the maids covered their faces and ran into the clinic.
"Oh, my luck. In just fifteen minutes, the lady will come to call me." Da Wang clenched his right fist and hammered it on the palm of his left hand.
His face was filled with annoyance.
If I had known earlier, I would have guessed it snowed yesterday.
"How can your luck compare to our master's? Our fourth young lady is famous for her good luck. Maybe the snow should have fallen in the second half of the night, but fate is on your side. You can't beat her. Just give up. The young lady will never lose in this life."
Ohmae curled his lips.
If they were lucky, they would not have become slaves.
How dare you compare with the young lady?
Daqian gave Dawang a cold look.
"Hehe, I was just joking. Miss, please come in. It's cold outside. You are laughing, but don't catch a cold." Da Wang smiled flatteringly and persuaded Jiang Fubao to go back.
