Peerless little medical concubine

Chapter 179 The Concubine Room
In a large courtyard near the west of the palace, there are many strange flowers and plants arranged in the courtyard, and it is a scene full of spring when it is newly green.There are three attics in the courtyard, and a concubine of Wei Lingxiao lives in each attic.

Wei Lingxiao was not in the mansion all the year round, so the concubines and concubines were inevitably lonely. Just after noon, Aunt Ma who lived in the west pavilion came to Aunt Zhang in the south pavilion, gossiping to pass the time.

Dressed in green silk and covered with white gauze, Aunt Zhang had a sharp melon-seeded face and a pair of almond eyes raised slightly. Her facial features are not the most beautiful, but they look comfortable when put together. From time to time, a little bit of hostility flashed, obviously not a good match.

Sitting opposite her was Aunt Ma who was wearing a large blue silk dress, her black hair was loose and tied with a silver hairpin, she was seriously doing embroidery on her hands with her head down.Her face is slightly round, and her eyes are slightly watery. She is not beautiful, but she is also delicate.

Aunt Zhang looked at Aunt Ma's very patient appearance, and impatiently picked up the pastries on the table and ate them.

"I said that you have the idea of ​​doing embroidery. When has the prince been back for so long, have you ever been to our Shude Courtyard? Now it's even more, and there is one more eye-catching thing. What do you want these days? Go on?" Among the concubines, Aunt Zhang has the highest status, she is the concubine daughter of the minister of the Ministry of War.Although she is a concubine, she is favored in the servant's mansion. Ordinary people really don't take her seriously.Usually domineering.

Aunt Ma didn't stop the movement of her hands because of this, she seemed to be used to this kind of life. "Even the side concubine can't keep the prince, so what's the use of us worrying about here?"

"She is dignified and generous. As soon as she came back, she knew to send things to the merchant's daughter's yard. She is just a merchant's daughter. Why can she marry the prince?" Crumble the pastry.

"She is the princess of the second grade, and the emperor personally appointed her. You and I will pay a big gift when we see her." Aunt Ma's face remained unchanged, and she was also the daughter of a cloth merchant in Bianjing.But obviously, he couldn't arouse any emotions towards Aunt Zhang's words.

"So what!" After saying that, Aunt Zhang jumped up violently. She was dissatisfied after learning that Ning Erlan was going to marry Wei Lingxiao as the main concubine. This emotion has been silent until now.In her opinion, Ning Erlan is a lowly business girl who tried every means to seduce Wei Lingxiao and let him marry her, otherwise why would Wei Lingxiao fall in love with her?

Aunt Ma stopped the embroidery and poured herself a cup of tea. "Then what do you want? What can you do?"

"Hmph, I want to see what she is capable of!" Aunt Zhang said angrily, got up and left.

Aunt Ma looked at Aunt Zhang's back and continued to embroider with her head down.On the embroidery, there is a pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water...

Lan Pavilion.

When Ning Erlan woke up, the sun was gradually setting towards the west.After sleeping for too long at once, her head became dizzy.

"Princess, you're awake." Xinyue took a basin of water, lifted the curtain and walked in.

"Why don't you wake me up, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep at night after sleeping for so long."

Xinyue lowered her eyes and said softly: "It took some time to deliver things to the side concubine, and the two girls Xinchen and Qingying didn't come to call for fear of disturbing the princess."

Ning Erlan paused while holding the porcelain cup. "It takes less than half a quarter of an hour to get to Yan Pavilion from here, and it only takes a quarter of an hour for you to go back and forth."

"The concubine side was taking a nap when the servant girl went, so she waited outside for a while, fortunately she didn't disturb the concubine side to rest, otherwise the servant girl would be guilty of a serious crime."

"Well, she just got back home and had a good rest."

"Wangfei, the prince hasn't returned to the residence yet, do you need to prepare the prince's dinner?" Logically speaking, Wei Lingxiao should stay at Ning Erlan's place for three days after the newlyweds, but now Xinyue is a little uncertain.

Ning Erlan stood up and stretched her arms and legs.In addition to the three maids she brought with her, there were two second-class maids, two third-class maids, and a sweeping woman in Lan Yuan.

"Let them all go to have dinner, as long as I have you serving here." Except for the big maid, all the servants of the palace eat in the big kitchen.

"Yes."

In Lan courtyard, only Ning Erlan and Xinyue were left.

Ning Erlan changed into a simple dress and came to the small kitchen in the yard.Xinchen was making soup for her inside.

"Small, princess, why are you in the kitchen, go out quickly, lest you get dirty."

Ning Erlan shook her head indifferently, the rest of the people in the yard are her own people, and she is not afraid of any bad words being heard. "I just want to try my craft, you just need to be a helper."

"But..." Xinchen wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Ning Erlan.

"Go quickly, wash this chicken and this fish... and this..." In her previous life, Ning Erlan would cook herself when she was in a bad mood. The smell of oily smoke in the kitchen could make her temporarily forget everything troubles.

I remember that Guan Furan likes to eat her dishes very much, and every time he has to see the light of the plate before he will give up.

Xinchen looked at Ning Erlan's skillful hands to make a dish full of color, fragrance and taste, and she couldn't help being amazed. She had never seen her see a young lady cooking. What is it? When did you learn it?
In just half an hour, four dishes and one soup were ready.

Braised oily chicken, sweet and sour carp, fresh vegetable soup, cold cucumber and braised eggplant.They are all dishes that can be eaten at home. They are not fancy, but they smell delicious.

Xinchen brought the dishes to the table happily, Ning Erlan washed her hands and face, changed her dress and sat down at the dining table ready to eat, feeling that she hadn't been so free-wheeling for a long time.

"Princess, the prince is here."

At the moment when Ning Erlan was about to put down her chopsticks, Qingying hurried in to report.

Helpless, he could only stand up with the chopsticks in his hand to meet the gate of the courtyard, and saw Wei Lingxiao walking this way at a glance.He was still wearing the black plaid robe from this morning, which shone brilliantly in the afterglow of the setting sun, making it impossible to move one's eyes away.

"The concubine greets the prince."

For some reason, Wei Lingxiao felt a warm satisfaction welling up in his heart as he walked far away and looked at the little woman waiting in the courtyard gate, and his originally dull mood gradually became more joyful.

"Get up, this king is coming to have dinner with you today."

"The lord will not let anyone come. He will only say a word. The concubine is not prepared here. I am afraid that those simple meals will not be as good as the lord." She finally made a few dishes, can you not come and grab her!

Hearing this, Wei Lingxiao's mood immediately sank after jumping up. "You don't want me to come over?"

If she didn't come here when she was about to eat, it might be a little bit better...

"How could it be? It's too late for the prince to come and concubines to be happy. Since the prince doesn't dislike it, let's go in and have dinner." Ning Erlan showed a submissive look, Wei Lingxiao snorted softly as if angry, and walked away went in.

After cleaning his hands and wiping his face, Wei Lingxiao came to the table and sat down.Seeing a few dishes on the table, it seems that they are a little different from those prepared in the big kitchen on weekdays.

"Is this dish delivered by the big kitchen today?"

Ning Erlan was about to answer yes, but Xinchen got ahead of her. "Back to the lord, our concubine made these with her own hands. The lord doesn't know that the concubine's craftsmanship is no worse than those chefs..."

"You guys go out first." Ning Erlan speechlessly interrupted Xinchen, who was still chattering, and if she was asked to continue, she would be able to take the star chef certificate exam.

"You made it yourself?" Wei Lingxiao raised his eyebrows and asked her.

"The concubine's craftsmanship is clumsy. If the prince doesn't like it, the concubine will let the people in the big kitchen prepare it again..."

Wei Lingxiao didn't wait for her to finish speaking, he reached out and took a piece of chicken into his mouth. Although Ning Erlan said that her cooking skills were not very good, but her eyes unconsciously showed a little bit of food that she didn't even notice. expectations.

She had never seen a man who could eat so elegantly, and even the movement of opening his mouth to chew had such a royal and noble demeanor.Actually...she wanted to ask, isn't she tired after chewing so much on every dish...

Wei Lingxiao completely ignored someone's eyes that were about to stare at him, and gracefully put down his chopsticks. "I've never heard of you being able to cook before."

"I understand a little, I understand a little..." Ning Erlan was modest, which meant that her cooking was delicious!
"The princess is really surprising me more and more." He stretched out his hand to serve himself a bowl of soup, and he felt that this meal would definitely be delicious.

"As long as the lord doesn't feel that there is no surprise or joy." After working for a long time, she also felt a little hungry, and regardless of other things, she picked up the chopsticks and prepared to eat gracefully like the male god!
But the sky fails to fulfill people's wishes, and some people just don't want her to have a peaceful meal.

"My lord, my aunt is not feeling well, please ask my lord to go and see her..." There was a shout that penetrated the entire yard from outside the courtyard.But this penetrating power is indeed worthy of admiration.

But the male god was unmoved and continued to eat gracefully.

Since the male god is ignoring her, she can't show too much concern, right? She still doesn't want to do this kind of move past the male god.I simply ate it too.

He put down the chopsticks in his hand after he was [-]% full. He looked down and found that the dishes on the table were not far from the CD.A certain male god also put down his chopsticks in a timely manner.

"My lord, a certain aunt is unwell and is waiting for your visit." The shouting outside the courtyard still didn't mean to stop.Ning Erlan deeply felt that going on like this would disturb her night's rest, so she simply "kindly" reminded her.

The male god put down the silk towel for wiping his hands and face, and raised his deep eyes to look at her. "This king is not a doctor, so I don't know how to diagnose pulses and treat diseases. It's useless to go to this king when you feel uncomfortable."
