Chapter 31 The Beginning of the Banquet (Addition)
Until the day when Duan's house opened to welcome guests, Zhiqiao didn't step up to glance at the booklet and mention her little brother.

Duan Yi didn't continue teasing her, just grabbed a few snacks, found a comfortable chair with a backrest, looked around, and waited for that person to hit the door by himself.Don't you say, I have eyes, can't you see for yourself?

Today she complied with Gu Xing's wishes, wearing a goose-yellow skirt with big white sleeves, under a slight shake, a string of pearls the size of a pigeon egg loomed on her wrist, the most amazing thing was that string of pearls On the top, there is also a green glowing Pixiu seal.

"The girl looks really good-looking today!"

Zhilu held a fan beside her, covering Duan Yi from the sun, otherwise, the strong light would really affect her watching the show.

"It's very pretty, white and yellow, like a half-cut boiled egg!" Duan Yi said, raising her hand to reveal the bracelet, "There is also a plate of glutinous rice balls, one of which is missing. Stuffing. Whoever looks at it doesn't say a word hungry!"

Zhi Luqiang pursed his lips, suppressed a smile, and looked around.

The Duan family's old house has a new look today, with hibiscus pollen as white as clouds on the top, Aoshuang chrysanthemums on the ground covered with gold, and in the middle are all beauties wearing various skirts like flowers and butterflies, which is dizzying for the eyes.

"Girl, don't be joking, maybe there is our future son-in-law in this garden!"

Duan Yi leaned on the back of the chair, took another sip of snacks, and pointed casually, "The unlucky bastard who is going to be punched to death by me? Where is it? Point it out and let me see how many... ..."

Duan Yi said, as if her hand was burned, she quickly retracted and smiled embarrassingly.

Seeing the direction of her finger, Cui Zi sat there without knowing when.

He was still wearing a long black gown, with a square jade button embedded in his girdle, and it was not clear what pattern was engraved on it from a distance.

Seeing Duan Yi staring at him, he glanced at him, then looked away, and whispered something to Yan Jing beside him.

Seeing this, Duan Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and muttered, "Fortunately, it's not a delicious food! Those eyes are like eagle eyes."

Zhilu on the side looked at Duan Yi's line of sight, and instantly became excited, "Girl, isn't this... that handsome young gentleman from that day? Why do his eyes look like eagle eyes? Although he has a single eyelid, but the corner of his eye That mole is really pretty!"

Duan Yi watched, and glared at Zhilu resentfully, "That's right, he's not eagle-eyed, you are, you can see the mole under the corner of someone's eye from such a long distance!"

"But your voice can be lower, that's Jiangnan Cui Zigeng!"

When Zhilu heard this, the hand holding the fan trembled and deviated from the direction. The sun shone directly on it, making Duan Yi unable to open her eyes.

But Zhilu can't care about these things anymore, "Cui... Cui... Cui Zigeng? That General Cui who kills without blinking an eye!"

She said, covered her face with a fan, and couldn't help moving closer to Duan Yi.

Duan Yi looked at her cowardly look, patted the crumbs on her hands, and just wanted to get up to get some more, when she saw a food box handed to her, she raised her head and narrowed her eyes.

Against the light, standing in front of him was a boy about seventeen or eighteen years old. He wore a jade crown on his head and pearls on his feet. On his white gown, patterns of flying birds and swimming fish were embroidered with light blue silk thread.

His eyes are bright and his body is fresh.

"But the third sister Duan? Heqing is abrupt. Recently, I got a new recipe for jujube cake. I always feel that something is missing when I make it. Seeing that the third sister Duan seems to be quite good at this, can I ask the third sister to taste it for me? taste?"

Duan Yi's face darkened instantly.

Now she just wants to grab Duan Ming's ears and wash his eyes with water!
As far as his picture book is concerned, it is not an exaggeration to praise him for his lifelikeness. If you look at it horizontally and vertically, your nose is a nose and your eyes are eyes. It is hung in front of the door. People think that the door god is about to come back to life.

Chinese paintings are mostly freehand brushstrokes, such realistic brushwork is really rare, Duan Yi couldn't help but look up to him, and read the booklet seriously.

If you don't look at a real person, it looks like a real person!Compare it with a real person, good guy... let's tear it up!

Duan Yi thought, stood up, blessed Chen Heqing, raised her head again, her eyes were reddish, and her voice trembled, "Your Highness Fifth, are you saying that I'm gluttonous?"

Chen Heqing's bent waist didn't straighten up, he felt that the tray in his hand seemed to weigh a thousand catties, and he was about to fall headlong under the weight!
But he quickly came back to his senses, cleared his throat, "It's Heqing who made a slip of the tongue, please don't take offense to Third Sister Duan. Erlang and I are classmates. When I was in Kyoto, I often came to the mansion as a guest, so I spoke casually." some."

"Heqing is here to apologize to Duan Sanmei, this box of jujube cakes is for my sister to eat. If it tastes delicious, I'll ask someone to bring some more."

He said with a smile, "If it's not delicious, it would be even better if you can tell me why it's not tasty next time."

Duan Yi moved her eyes, took the food box, and waved her hands loudly, "No, I'll tell you when I eat it now."

As she said, when she opened the food box, a gust of hot air rushed towards her face, and the sweet smell of red dates made one feel as if one sip could fill a bowl of blood.

Duan Yi took a piece, took a bite, and before it got into her throat, she saw Yan Jing running over, "Hey, everyone has a share, this fragrance has drawn out all the gluttons in the old man's stomach." .”

"Your Highness Fifth, don't you mind if the old man also has a taste?"

Chen Heqing smiled, "Of course, Mr. Yan has never used any delicacies in the Jiangnan Palace, so it would be great if he could try it for me. To be honest, my aunt loves jujube cake the most, but I tried it for her. It’s better, she said it’s not the same taste as before.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Jing also took a piece, and finished it in two or three mouthfuls.

"The jujube paste is not delicate, and the skin is a bit irritating to the throat," Yan Jing said shaking his head.

"It's too sweet, and the sugar should be reduced by three points. I don't know how much water and how much powder is used in this jujube cake?" Duan Yi said, shaking her head and looking at Chen Heqing expectantly.

Chen Heqing was taken aback for a moment, he was at a loss for words, he is not a cook...

Seeing this, Duan Yi opened her eyes wide in surprise, "Isn't Your Highness proficient in this way?"

Chen Heqing's ears were slightly red, he blinked at Duan Yi, and lowered his voice, "Sister Duan, don't expose me! I only know how to eat! I only know what it is, but I don't know why."

At this moment, an old eunuch standing behind him approached, "Your Highness, it's almost time, it's time to go to the front yard."

Chen Heqing nodded with a smile, "Mr. Yan, Sister Duan San, then I will go ahead."

As he spoke, he turned around again, nodded to Cui Zigen who was sitting over there, and left quickly.

Yan Jing looked at it, clicked his tongue, took another jujube cake from the food box, and took a bite, "This jujube cake is delicious, but it's a bit small. It's thanks to you making so many mistakes."

Duan Yi pushed the food box over, "Mr. likes to eat it, so take it back and eat it. After all, my nonsense is not as good as Mr.'s."

Yan Jing shook his head, looked Duan Yi up and down, "Now you are going to be a sweet potato..."
