delicious little cook

Chapter 389
Gu Xu did what he said, as soon as he returned to his room, he took out the box containing the body deed, and went out to the front yard to ask the boy to send it to Gu Yun along with the box. The maid touched his things.

The old servants saw the young master circling around and calling the young servant to deliver things to the prince, and ran to complain to the second wife. The second wife knew that the son was angry with her, so she had no choice but to teach the old servants who complained. Tell them to wait carefully, the marriage with the Gan family in Pingzhou has not been discussed yet, this is the most important thing at hand, if the young master wants to lose his temper, let him do it, so what if he is a young master.

Seeing his wife's attitude, the old servants backed away with a smile, hiding aside and muttering about how many dowries that Miss Gan will bring if the marriage contract is reached, and if those people rely on the support of the young mistress to compete with them How will they fight back when they rob power.

When Gu Yun received the body deed, he was handed over to Bai Kou to lock it up. It's more safe for her to keep such a valuable deed.

During dinner, at Rong En Hall, the second master and the third master toasted the eldest brother and sister-in-law to congratulate Gu Yun for his great achievements, but it was a pity that they could not wait for the prince to drive, and they would set off to return to their place of work the day after tomorrow at the latest, the sixteenth day of the first lunar month All yamen offices must open early in the morning to be directors. The local tradition is that all officials celebrate the end of the new year together on the Lantern Festival, so if you count the days backwards, the two lords have arrived at their place on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month. Place of office.

Both the second master and the third master set off alone, leaving their wives and daughters behind. Gu Xu and Gu Jing are about to participate in Chunwei, and the mother should stay at home to take care of her son as a matter of course. If the second master talks about marriage, the second wife will also Wedding supplies can be purchased directly in the capital.

The old lady has no objection to the arrangement of her son and daughter-in-law. She is in her 60s, and she doesn't have so much energy to care about the children's housework carefully. She would rather spend it on her own hobbies. She only proposed one If the marriage between Gu Xu and Gu Wan is settled, the wedding will be held at the father's place of employment, so as to save the second son who is now in his 40s from running back and forth for his children's marriage, and let his colleagues in the officialdom seize the opportunity to sue.

The second master didn't think much about whether there were any calculations behind it at all, he just felt the love of his old mother for him, he was so moved, he agreed with everything, and listened to his mother.

The eldest room and the third room immediately toasted to the second room to congratulate the second room. The second lady returned the gift with a stiff expression. In her plan, she hoped that her husband would ask for leave and go back to the capital to hold the wedding ceremony for the child. Otherwise, how could they show that they were Ye Guogong? She came as the grandson of the eldest son, but the old matriarch's words shattered her plans.

The second master has already agreed at the dinner table in front of his brothers and sisters-in-law. The second wife has no chance to go back on her word, and the reason is really good. If the husband asks for leave and travels back and forth for the sake of the children's marriage, he will be sued, especially if Gu Xu has He was born as a Jinshi, and facing such a lawsuit at a time when he should be proud of himself will become a personal stain on him, and his future career will also be affected.

For the sake of her husband and son's future, the second wife could only accept this arrangement even though she was crying like a torrential rain in her heart, and she had no chance to see her daughter-in-law and daughter enter and leave the main gate of Lord Ye's mansion gracefully.

The old lady and the eldest lady felt at ease. Seeing this scene, the third lady couldn't help worrying about what to do when Gu Jing got married in the future, and where to choose a wife for him.

After dinner, everyone went to rest. Gu Yun went to say good night to his grandmother, and mentioned her girl's marriage. When the grandson specifically mentioned the niece of the housekeeper, the old matriarch knew what he was thinking and did not refute it. To his masters, this is really a trivial matter for his face, and he promised that in a few days, someone would give him a list of girls who are of marriageable age, and he would decide who to marry and who not to marry.

When the maids waiting nearby heard this, they felt like deer bumping in their hearts. They looked at the prince with expectant eyes, hoping that they would be the lucky one who would be able to marry a good man.

Gu Yun resigned from his grandmother and went back, and wrote back letters to his friends one by one in the study, inviting them to have dinner at home and try the Fushouquan soup, otherwise, after the new year's school starts, everyone will have to prepare for the Spring Festival. Thinking about going out and having fun.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Bai Kou went about his routine and sent someone to send a letter to the son on errands.

After walking to the East Kitchen, Bai Kou told Zeng Zhu what kind of desserts she would like to make to entertain the angel who didn't know when she would come to give the reward. In addition to the traditional pastries for Chinese New Year, there are naturally some small desserts that she is good at, and some desserts that should be eaten while they are hot You have to wait until the angel's team arrives outside the gate to enter the oven, otherwise it will be cold if it is cooked early.

After arranging the errands in the kitchen, Bai Kou went to the side courtyard to visit the seven girls who were still recovering from their injuries.

It has been a few days since the injuries suffered years ago, and now the seven of them can slowly get out of bed and move around. When Bai Kou walked into the yard, he saw them basking in the sun in the yard, and the mother-in-law who was supposed to take care of them in daily life None of them were seen.

"Huh? Is it the work of the white man?"

Of course the girls knew Bai Kou, and they went to the Zhongming Court to greet him on the first day they entered the mansion.

Bai Kou also saw two girls, Xiangzhu and Guizhu, among them. They were originally the replacements for the two pregnant women, but now their faces were pale and their lips were colorless, and they didn't look as pretty as they used to.

"You can all go to the ground, how is the injury now?"

"It's okay, they're all recovering slowly." Xiangzhu and Guizhu moved towards Bai Kou with some difficulty, "We are inconvenient, please find a place to sit for Bai Kou."

"Don't bother, I just came here to tell you that Uncle Xu gave all your deeds to the prince yesterday, and the seven of you are now girls of Zhongmingyuan."

"Really?!" Everyone had expressions of disbelief.

"How can I lie to you with this? You were bought by Uncle Xu himself. Now that something like this happened, the second lady insisted not to keep you and wanted to replace you with the old servants. Uncle Xu couldn't do anything to mother. For the sake of an innocent disaster, I have transferred you to the crown prince."

The maids immediately hugged their heads and wept. After being in fear for several days, they didn't know what the masters would do with them in the future. They didn't expect to receive such good news, and they could finally sleep peacefully tonight.

"But, Bai Guanshi, the seven of us are all wounded. Even if we heal well, we may suffer from the root cause of the disease. Why is the prince still willing to accept us?" A very real question.

"The Zhongming Academy is full, and there are other uses for accepting you. You should think about whether you want to be ordered by the prince. If you don't want to, the prince will not force you. At the same time, you will not keep idlers in vain. You may send them to If Zhuangzi marries the old man, he might just sell it off."

Bai Kou didn't completely scare them, she also told the truth, one radish and one hole, Zhongming Home is not a nursing home, everyone is useful.
