Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 340
Yao Cunhui tilted her head to hide from him, and teased, "Then if I feed you with my own hands, wouldn't you be so moved that you can't speak!"

"That's what you said!" Shen Quan was overjoyed, hugged her and refused to let go, put his chin on his shoulder and said with a smile: "Hui'er, what you said must be true!"

Yao Cunhui felt that she was in a cocoon, how could she agree?Shen Quan didn't want to let go easily after hearing this, and just kept pestering her.

Yao Cunhui couldn't trouble him, and was afraid that making noise in the kitchen would cause people to hear the joke, so she hummed and answered him, but she couldn't be reconciled after thinking about it, she raised her eyebrows and smiled and said: "Reciprocity is reciprocal, there is reciprocity, I don't know what the prince intends to do." What kind of gift do you give back?"

"That's true!" Shen Quan rubbed his chin, thinking, "I have to show something for receiving such a big gift from the concubine! Yes," his eyes lit up, and he whispered in her ear : "Tonight, the king will serve the princess to take a bath, and take good care of the princess..."

"Dirty!" Yao Cunhui spat at him before he finished speaking, her face flushed with embarrassment.Serve, God knows how he will 'serve' her then!

"This king keeps his promises, and what he says will definitely mean what he says!" Shen Quan laughed loudly.

Yao Cunhui became more and more embarrassed, and stretched out his hand to push him, and the two of them laughed.

Seeing the water in the pot tumbling with white flowers, Yao Cunhui hurriedly stopped laughing, washed his hands again, and went forward to cook the noodles.

Shen Quan smiled and moved a small horse to sit in front of the stove and offered to watch the fire for her.

Not long after, Yao Cunhui stirred the noodles with chopsticks when he saw the noodles puffing up in the pot. After waiting for a while, he said "It's ok" and asked Shen Quan to turn off the fire. He scooped up the noodles into a bowl, scooped up the soup, and just filled a large bowl.

Shen Quan stood aside with his arms folded, looking at Yao Cunhui with a smile on the corner of his mouth, with piercing eyes.

Yao Cunhui really wanted to go back on the joke just now, but when she saw Shen Quan's expression of "you and I regret it, I'm in a hurry with you", she was a little afraid of him for no reason.Carefully put the bowl of noodles on the square table, rubbed his hands together and said with a smile, "How about we just eat here?"

"Okay, the princess has the final say!" Shen Quan had no objection at all, and added: "Anyway, it's the princess who did it."

Yao Cunhui groaned silently, cast a glance at him, Shen Quan laughed, lifted his robe and sat down, looking eagerly at his daughter-in-law for food.

Yao Cunhui told him to make a "puchi" smile, sat down next to him, and carefully picked up a few noodles and brought them to Shen Quan's mouth. Shen Quan raised his eyebrows, as if he was very dissatisfied with her delicate appearance, Yao Cunhui hurriedly said with a smile: "Don't stare at me, this longevity noodles are eaten differently from other noodles! If you can't bite off, you have to eat a long piece in one go!"

"There is such a rule? Why didn't I know?" Shen Quan was surprised.

Yao Cunhui was startled, and quickly laughed, "Don't you believe me?"

"Believe it, I believe it!" Shen Quan smiled, opened his mouth to eat, and as expected, he didn't bite it off, and sucked it all into his mouth in one breath, Yao Cunhui giggled when he saw it.

"Then, did no one tell you when you ate birthday noodles in previous years?" Yao Cunhui asked curiously.

Shen Quan shook his head, and said lightly: "Nurse never told me this, and no one ever told me about it later. Although those two girls served them wholeheartedly, they never said this. However, Huier told me that, in my heart Very happy!"

Yao Cunhui's heart darkened, and she thought what Rongma said was right, they are both hard-fated people.

"Hemerocallis has been punished enough, I think she is becoming more and more calm and stable, let her go back to the house to serve after the New Year!" Yao Cunhui said with a smile again.Now that one vanilla is gone, only day lily is left. After all, she has served the master wholeheartedly for so many years. Although she did something wrong in a moment of confusion, her heart is good.

"You don't have to take care of me," Shen Quan looked up at Yao Cunhui, with tenderness in his heart, only his wife put him first in everything, and would rather take into account his feelings than being wronged.She can do this for him, why can't he give up something for her?Vanilla and Hemerocallis were one of the few warmth he got since he was a child, but they hurt her, and he couldn't let them go easily.At least, he didn't want them to be an eyesore in front of her, so that she would always have this thorn in her heart, and let everyone in the mansion remember it.

"It's really impossible, I'll send her away too! Get rid of slavery, give her a sum of money to settle down, and let her leave far away, what do you think?"

Yao Cunhui was slightly stunned, and after a moment of silence, she smiled and said, "Vanilla is vanilla, and daylilies are daylilies. She has also learned a lesson from this matter, and I'm not the type to hold on to the past and refuse to let it go! Or, I'll ask when I'm free tomorrow." What does she mean? If she wants to leave, she can leave, if she wants to stay, then stay!"

"Hui'er, thank you!" Shen Quan couldn't help holding her hand with a gentle expression.Of course Hemerocallis would not be willing to leave the palace, she knew nothing about the outside world, not everyone was like his wife, who liked a life where the seas were wide enough for fishes to leap, and the sky was high for birds to fly.

Yao Cunhui shook his hand instead and smiled sweetly.

"The noodles are getting cold, eat them quickly!" Yao Cunhui giggled, quickly withdrew his hand, and continued to feed her husband virtuously. Shen Quan was smiling all over his eyes, eating a bowl of noodles to his heart's content.

After arguing for a while, the two finally left the kitchen hand in hand and returned to the house.

The dinner has already been served, and the old lady Shen specially ordered the kitchen to cook a total of eighteen dishes, as well as two dishes offered by the old lady, and two dishes given by Mrs. Xiao.

The noodles were very rich, but neither of them had much appetite after eating the noodles.Shen Quan took a special look at the dishes offered by the old matriarch and Mrs. Xiao, and seeing that Mrs. Xiao gave him the jar meat and three-flavored mutton that he usually likes, Shen Quan was slightly startled, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Yao Cunhui didn't point it out, and said with a smile: "We won't eat it anyway, so let's reward the servants, it's a pity to leave it alone!"

"You can figure it out, grandma and mother will reward you!" Shen Quan smiled.

Then Yao Cunhui gave the order, and ordered to find a food box to come in, packed nine dishes and sent them to Qianling and Qianshan, the servants of Shen Quan in the outer courtyard, and ordered Xiaoxing and others to carry the rest down for his own use.

All the maids and women came to kowtow to Shen Quan to thank him, and said with a smile that they would be lucky if they were blessed by the prince!Yao Cunhui couldn't help laughing after hearing this.

In the evening, Li's mother brought a little girl to Xihe Hall suddenly. Yao Cunhui and Shen Quan were entertaining in the study, and hurriedly greeted them out.

Madam Li stepped forward to salute, then put down the round old rattan basket in her hand, carefully brought out a pastel Shuangshou peach covered bowl and put it on the table, she said with a smile: "My lord's birthday is today, This is the Longevity Noodle made by Madam herself, and I specially asked the old slave to bring it to the lord, wishing the lord a long life and a long life!"

Shen Quan was stunned, feeling sore in his heart, and then nodded for a while and said lightly: "Mother is interested, and mother Lao Li will go there in person!" After finishing speaking, he ordered to reward Mother Li generously.

Seeing that he was so alienated, Mama Li couldn't help but feel sad, and couldn't help but think of the time when the young master was around, eating longevity noodles with his wife on his birthday every year, and both mother and son had smiles on their faces.Every time the young master would pick up the first chopsticks for his wife to eat, and happily eat the rest by himself!

Even though the madam loves the young master so much, she has never personally cooked longevity noodles for the young master, and she only gives advice every time.This bowl of longevity noodles was made by Madam herself, and she has been learning how to make it since yesterday. When the prince went to kowtow early this morning, Madam wanted to tell him about making noodles for him, but she just faced the prince's indifferent expression , Madam still can't say it!After all, she had ignored him for many years, and her indifference to her was caused by her own hand. Even if she regrets it now, what's the use of thinking about it every now and then and breaking her heart?He no longer needs her concern!

Madam struggled for a day, going in and out of the kitchen several times, but she still couldn't bear to touch the longevity noodles.She knew she was afraid, she was afraid that she would not have the courage to send it out even if she did it!
Seeing her like that, Li's mother felt very sad, she knew that after today she would regret it again, and the prince might also feel lost in his heart, one year after another, when will the knot between mother and son be untied?

Li's mother persuaded and encouraged her with Jin Ying and Jin Mei. She already had such thoughts in her heart, so she couldn't help agitating, so she hurriedly cooked and hurriedly cooked. Then sent over.

Shen Quan's heart was heavy, what should he say?In previous years, I could not ask for one, but this year I have two!Shen Quan laughed at himself and shook his head slightly.

"My lord," Li's mother sighed, looked at him and said softly, "Forgive me for talking too much, this bowl of longevity noodles was made by my wife herself. My wife has never cooked, and she has never made longevity noodles by herself. My lord You should have a taste anyway, this is Madam's wish!"

"It's getting dark, doesn't Mama Li think it's a bit late?" Shen Quan looked outside and said with a faint smile, "Besides, I've already eaten longevity noodles." He gave Yao Cunhui a tender look and continued: "Now my stomach is so full that I can't eat anything else! I appreciate my mother's wishes, and I will kowtow to my mother tomorrow morning! Let's put this side here!"

Li's mother's heart was slightly cold, and she couldn't help but said: "Your lord, you know, to make this bowl of noodles, my wife rushed to learn yesterday, and started going in and out of the kitchen several times this morning. , That's why it's delayed until now! My lord, even if Madam was wronged in every possible way before, she is still your mother! Why don't you forgive her! My lord, you are mother and son!"

"Shut up!" Shen Quan let out a low voice, staring at Li Mama coldly, "You are just a slave, and it's not your turn to talk about the master's affairs! Is there something unfilial about this king? You can say it." Don’t come out! Who do you think you are! Get out for me! Get out!”

Yao Cunhui had turned his eyes away from all the maids when Mama Li spoke. Seeing that the commotion was even more stiff, he pulled Shen Quan's sleeves, and said to Mama Li with a smile, "My lord is so happy that he drank two more glasses today, and he is a little drunk." Now, Madam Li, please go back! Just say that the prince thanked Mrs. for your concern, and he will definitely eat this birthday noodles! You should go back quickly!"
