Guo'er was a little surprised. She didn't expect Gu Yunyue to agree so readily.After all, Lu Yunlan snatched her jade pendant and forced her to marry Mr. An and Hou on her behalf.

"Thank you, miss! I'll make arrangements now!" Guo'er happily blessed Gu Yunyue and left.

Gu Yunyue, who was working alone in the kitchen, quickly made a new sour meatball soup. Because the Thirteenth Prince was not very interested in spicy food, she did not make a hot and sour one, and also added hawthorn tangerine peel and other ingredients. Edible medicinal herbs.

However, there was still room for improvement in this dish, and she had to try to adjust the taste the next time she went to the palace.

The next day, Guoer specially brought Gu Yunyue to the side pavilion of the Hou Mansion. Gu Yunyue was still thinking about something mysterious, and saw a delicate woman standing in the pavilion from a distance.

"Ms. Lu, this is my young lady." Guo'er introduced somewhat hurriedly.

Lu Yunlan slowly turned around and saluted Gu Yunyue: "I have met Mrs. Hou."

Gu Yunyue was a little flattered. Lu Yunlan's fierce look when she first met her was completely different from her respectful look now.

It's almost like a different person.

"You don't have to call me that, just call me by my name." Gu Yunyue scratched his head unnaturally, "How did you end up like this?"

Even if she breaks the engagement, it is not difficult to keep Lu Yunlan with the strength of the Lu family.

Lu Yunlan wiped her tears: "Mrs. Hou didn't know something. Because I secretly asked you to marry me, my father was afraid that I would harm him and the entire Lu family, so he kicked me out."

After hearing this cry, Gu Yunyue secretly felt sorry for Lu Yunlan.

In the final analysis, she was just afraid that Su Qilin would find someone to marry him as rumored, so she kicked him out. This father was really cold-blooded and ruthless.

"Mrs. Hou, I did something wrong before, but since I am helpless in the capital, just let me live in the Hou Mansion." Lu Yunlan said with big tears starting to fall down. .

"You can treat me as a rough maid, as long as you give me a place to live!"

Gu Yunyue couldn't bear to see such a weak woman crying in front of him, so she quickly comforted her: "The Marquis Mansion is so big and has so many rooms, so just choose one to live in."

Lu Yunlan's crying gradually stopped, and she quickly knelt down to express her gratitude: "Thank you, Madam Hou, for taking me in."

"Then what are your plans for the future?" Gu Yunyue looked at her worriedly.

Lu Yunlan shook her head: "I don't know, my father wants me to find a way to become the Marquis of He'an."

Gu Yunyue's eyes immediately widened, right?She finally gained some sense of presence in front of the emperor, but now she is going to be kicked out of her position as Madam Hou?
At least wait until she and the emperor get to know each other!

Lu Yunlan saw her concerns and quickly waved her hand to explain: "Mrs. Hou, don't worry, I don't have this idea. I can't do anything to regret you anymore. I just want to stabilize in the capital before making plans."

Gu Yunyue breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and ordered: "Guo'er, have someone clean up a room and take Miss Lu there."

Seeing how embarrassed Lu Yunlan was now, she couldn't help but feel sympathy. Since she didn't have any bad intentions, it was not impossible to keep her in the house.

But after all, she was not the one who made the decision in this Hou Mansion. She still needed to ask Su Qilin for instructions on this matter.

Suddenly, the fragrance of osmanthus came from the tip of his nose. Before he knew it, it was the season of osmanthus blooming. Gu Yunyue thought of a dessert related to autumn.Following the scent of the flowers, she quickly found several sweet-scented osmanthus trees. The sweet-scented osmanthus blossoms were clustered in bloom. She stood on tiptoes and swayed the branches, catching a bunch of sweet-scented osmanthus flowers with her dress.

"Miss, Miss Lu has settled down." Guo'er was a little uncomfortable with this title, but now that Lu Yunlan was living under someone else's roof, she had to change her tune.

Gu Yunyue had just finished cleaning the sweet-scented osmanthus: "Go to the market and buy some red dates."

While Guo'er was buying ingredients, she started kneading the noodles and adding warm water to the glutinous rice flour.

After the ingredients were ready, she removed the cores of the red dates one by one, then stuffed the mixed glutinous rice dough into the red dates bit by bit, steamed them and sprinkled them with freshly picked osmanthus flowers, and the dish of sweet-scented osmanthus and red date glutinous rice was completed.

Gu Yunyue happily brought the plate of dessert to Su Qilin, who happened to be handling affairs at the house.

"Hurry up and try the new ones I made."

As soon as Gu Yunyue entered the door, there was a scent of sweet-scented osmanthus, which instantly aroused Su Qilin's curiosity.

"It smells so good. Today's dessert is made of sweet-scented osmanthus?" Su Qilin put down the brush and picked up a piece to taste with some anticipation.

It is soft and glutinous in the mouth, not only the softness of red date glutinous rice but also mixed with the fragrance of osmanthus, which makes people have endless aftertaste.Su Qilin ate another piece without wanting to finish it. The strong aroma of red dates was offset by the fragrance of osmanthus, and the taste was just right.

"Tell me, what do you have to say?" Su Qilin raised his eyebrows and looked at the woman in front of him. He knew her temper very well. She must have something to ask for.

Gu Yunyue rubbed her hands and said with a smile: "I do have something to ask Lord Hou. Lu Yunlan has come to the capital. She has no place to stay. Can Lord Hou let her stay in the Hou Mansion?"

Su Qilin's expression became a little colder, and his eyes became darker.He couldn't understand what Gu Yunyue was thinking, that he would be kind enough to take Lu Yunlan in.

"Master Marquis, she is also a miserable person. The Lu family kicked her out to protect themselves." Gu Yunyue pulled Su Qilin's sleeves and begged, "She is not bad in nature, please let her stay."

"Where is she now?" Su Qilin couldn't stand her hard words, so his tone became softer.

"I've asked Guo'er to clean up a room for her." Gu Yunyue smiled and pushed the dessert closer.

Su Qilin glanced at Gu Yunyue with a dark face. This woman was becoming more and more bold, making her own decisions without his consent.

"Since she has already lived in the Hou Mansion, why are she still discussing with me?" Su Qilin's tone was a little unhappy.

Gu Yunyue blinked and slapped him on the shoulder as if to be attentive: "You are the head of the family in the Hou Mansion, I still need to ask for your instructions."

"Hmph, since I have helped you, shouldn't you give something in return?" Su Qilin snorted coldly and suddenly began to look at Gu Yunyue.

Gu Yunyue hurriedly covered her body and said alertly: "As long as it's not an excessive request, I can agree to it."

Su Qilin raised his lips and smiled: "Where did you want to go? I just need to use your cooking skills to get to know more famous families."

Gu Yunyue realized that she was being played again and clenched her pink fist tightly. If it weren't for her identity, she would have punched him in the face!
However, in order to allow Lu Yunlan to live in the Hou Mansion, Gu Yunyue finally agreed to Su Qilin's request.

Isn't it just cooking for those dignitaries? It doesn't matter who they cook for!
