Chapter 41: candied haws

    "Sixth Brother, what''s the matter with you, are you unhappy to see Sizi?"


    Li Yin, who was sleeping soundly in the morning, suddenly felt a heavy moving object on his body, which frightened him into a cold sweat. When he saw the heavy object clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief. Jumping up and down on his body, Li Zhi was standing by the bed, smiling gleefully.


    Li Yin was so sleepy that he couldn''t open his eyes, hey down again and said, "Why are you two here, does the queen mother know?"


    Xizi said in a childish voice: "It was the mother who asked us toe and y with Sixth Brother, saying that Sixth Brother has the most time and the most leisure."


    "What do you mean I am the most leisurely? My mother is biased, I am very busy! Go find your seventh brother, starling to y!"


    Xizi said displeasedly: "I don''t want to y with them, it''s like a piece of wood, so it''s meaningless." After speaking, he stepped on Li Yin''s body again to prevent him from sleeping.


    "I''m really scared of you guys!" Now that he couldn''t sleep, Li Yan simply got up, hugged his son, and hit his little butt. His strength was not strong, and Si Ziughed happily.


    Li Zhi stood aside and watched Li Yin and Sizi y around, just smiled and didn''t dare to participate. When Li Zhi saw it, he thought that this Li Zhi was really as written in history, and his personality was too weak.


    After dinner, Li Yin decided to take the two guys to Dongshi to y, where there were singers and jugglers everywhere, and when they had seen enough, they would send the two little guys back.


    Because he brought young siblings with him, Li Yin didn''t dare to be careless, so he transferred four nursing homes to follow him to prevent any idents.


    Sizi and Li Zhi stay in the Taiji Pce all year round and are raised by the eldest grandson empress. They rarely have the opportunity to go out of the pce to y. Firstly, they are worried about their safety. Secondly, among the brothers and sisters, the older ones have their own affairs. The younger ones were all in the pce and couldn''t get out, and Li Yin who came back from Xiangzhou became the only one who had his own pce and was rtively leisurely.


    Holding Sizi in one hand and holding Li Zhi in the other, Li Yin went to the lively ces in Dongshi, watched monkey shows, went to operas, bought a lot of snacks along the way, and the two little guys were so happy Laughed all the way.


    "Brother Six, look!" Just after the sledgehammer performance ended, Sizi''s little hand pointed to another ce. Li Yin turned his head and saw some red things piled up on a small stall in front of him. It is pointing to these things.


    Li Yin approached and saw that these were hawthorns, "Xizi, do you want to eat?"


    Xizi drooled and nodded desperately.


    Li Yin has always disliked these sour things, so he never eats hawthorn directly, but has eaten candied haws a few times.


    "Candied haws!" Li Yin remembered, "Son, I''m a young ve, go back and Brother Six will cook you something delicious!"


    "Okay!" Hearing that there was something delicious, both of them jumped up and down excitedly...


    Taiji Pce, Yonganmen.


    A group of fifteen women covered with white gauzes passed through the pce gate after being checked by the guards.


    "It''s really stunning in the world!" Watching the backs of all the women leaving one after another, the guard Yi said.


    Guard A echoed: "Of course, it is said that this is a singer rmended by His Royal Highness, how can it be bad."


    "It''s just that the emperor is diligent in government affairs and has little interest in enjoying singing and dancing. I''m afraid His Royal Highness is wasting all his troubles!" Guard B looked back, "It''s a pity that these beauties are left alone in the pce again!"


    "Who can say that urately!"


    "..."


    Following the little eunuch, fifteen singers were led to the Caisi Courtyard where they lived and lived. The people living here were all singers, dancers and music girls who performed for the pce banquet.


    "This is where you will live from now on, and you are not allowed to leave this ce without orders. This is your steward Liu, and you will obey her discipline from now on!" The little **** pointed at a woman in her thirties.


    "Yes, father-inw!"


    Nodding his head, the little **** said: "Guan Liu, I will leave this to you!"


    The woman known as Guanshi Liu responded respectfully. She was originally named Liu Yueying. She specialized in choreographing songs and dances.


    Seeing off the little eunuch, Liu Yueying looked at the fifteen upright young girls, and said: "The rules here are very simple, first, don''t leave the Caisi courtyard casually, second, practice singing and dancing diligently, and third and most importantly, Don''t have illusions that the emperor and the prince will fall in love with you, let alone try to seduce the emperor and the prince, otherwise it will be a capital offense if you find out, remember!"


    "ves remember!" Fifteen people responded crisply.


    Under Sizi''s begging, Li Yin bought a big bag of hawthorn and returned to the pce.


    Going straight to the kitchen, Li Yin asked the cook to bring over arge pot of brown sugar. At this time, there was no such thing as white sugar in the Tang Dynasty, only boiled brown sugar, and the sweetness was average. The environment in the Tang Dynasty was so difficult, Li Yin had no choice but to He was able to make do with it. First, he skewered the hawthorns and boiled them, and then started to boil the syrup.


    Xizi and Li Zhi were also in the kitchen, moring to see Li Yin make candied haws.


    The candied haws really have no technical content. After the syrup is boiled, Li Yin rolled the hawthorn in the syrup for a few times, took it out and let it cool for a while, and the candied haws are done.


    "Here, little greedy cat!" Li Yin stuffed a candied haws for each of them, and wrapped the rest for them.


    Xizi and Li Zhi had never seen such a thing before, so they picked it up and took a bite. The sourness of the hawthorn and the sweetness of the brown sugar entered the mouth at the same time, it was fragrant and refreshing, and they ate it with relish.


    "It''s so delicious!" Li Zhi yelled how much older than Sizi, and he ate fast, and he picked up another skewer. Seeing Sizi, he quickly picked up another skewer and held it in his hand I am afraid that I will suffer.


    Seeing the two little guys gobbling it up, Li Yin said: "Don''t worry, eat as much as you want!" After finishing speaking, he continued to make candied haws. He knew that these two guys would definitely show off when they returned to Taiji Pce. It''s better to make more, let them take it back, and let the younger brothers and sisters in the pce taste it.


    Here to make candied haws, Li Yin asked Jin Daqian to weave a shelf for candied haws, which is convenient for carrying candied haws.


    At dusk, Li Yin made another fifty or sixty strings of candied haws. At this time, Jin Daqian came over with a wooden stick with straw tied on the top. The guards escorting Sizi and Li Zhi carried it.


    One person ate four or five bunches of candied haws, but the two guys still didn''t want to go back to the pce. Go back with a heart, and said that I wille back to y after a while.


    In Yanxi Hall, when Empress Changsun was about to send someone to Liang Wangfu, Si Zi and Li Zhi came back, and the guards behind them were still carrying a stick full of candied haws.


    Empress Changsun had never seen such a thing before, and asked in doubt: "What is this?"


    "Sixth brother said this is called candied haws!" Sizi threw himself into the arms of Empress Changsun and said, Li Zhi pulled one out and handed it to Empress Changsun, saying: "Mother, you can try it!"


    "This Li Yin, what strange thing did hee up with?" After the empress Changsun finished speaking, she took a bite of the candied haws.


    "It tastes good!" Empress Changsun praised after tasting a few mouthfuls.


    Li Zhiughed and took out another piece of paper from his pocket, "The sixth brother also wrote the production method to Zhinu, saying that he and Zhinu can eat candied haws every day in the future."


    Empress Changsun took the note, on which was written the method of making candied haws, so she ordered Xiao Huangmen, "Give this list to the imperial dining room, and let them learn how to make it."
