delicious little cook

Chapter 401 I Can't Control My Mouth Even After Eating and Drinking Well

"By the way, do you know what Gan Yuwen's attitude is now? Are you willing to get married?"

"It's not decided yet. I heard that we have to wait for the final examination results. Gan Yuwen is a Jinshi. Of course, he hopes that his younger sister will marry a new Jinshi directly. Besides, if Gu Xu really wins the Jinshi, the marriage of his two younger sisters will be easy."

"Oh, then I wish Uncle Xu good luck."

"And me?"

"Didn't you say that you will definitely fail the ranking?" Bai Kou said carelessly.

Gu Yun's breath was stuck in his chest again, unable to go up or down, he raised his hand to pinch Bai Kou's cheek as a punishment, but when he heard her moaning, he immediately let go, wrapped him in his arms, and put it on her face. Kiss, and then go out together.

"Go, go back, don't wait, who knows when he will finish, it's freezing here, go back to the house to warm up."

The two walked out of the gate of the water pavilion, avoiding the direction of the platform, and walked in a big circle before returning to the narrow path leading to the Zhongming Courtyard. Then the two broke up, and Bai Kou went to the small kitchen to make finger cakes for dinner.

In the morning of the next day, the rough envoy's wife and maids cleaned the upper and lower floors of the waterside pavilion. Lanterns for the Lantern Festival were hung on the platform, and the second and first floors were ready to receive guests. All kitchen utensils are in place.

After the lunch break, earth dragons grew up in the water pavilion, and the hot air went up to the second and third floors through the fire wall. The whole water pavilion was warm. When she came out, only Shuizhen was with her.

Gu Hui, who has been recuperating for more than half a year, is much better than before, and has grown a little, with the characteristics of a girl's development, no longer a weak child's figure, and the eclipse at the dinner table has rules, That's why Aunt Rong dared to agree to Bai Kou's invitation.

Shuizhen tied a sable cloak on Gu Hui, and then Bai Kou and her took Gu Hui's hand from left to right and went to the water pavilion together, chose a seat sheltered from the wind for her, served milk tea and snacks and cakes for her, and then Shui Zhen Accompanied by Zhen alone, Bai Kou went downstairs to prepare the roast leg of lamb.

At that time, Gu Yun dragged his younger brother to wait for the guests in his special study outside the front yard. The guests invited were all brothers and sisters, and it was the Lantern Festival, so they all got off outside the gate, and then passed through the front yard to say goodbye. Go to see the old lady and the eldest lady, and then be led to the water pavilion by the servants, and do not enter or exit directly from the garden.

The team in the Eastern Palace was still a mighty group of people, but it was better than yesterday. They didn't put on a ceremonial guard. It was just that the two siblings rode in the prince's carriage, and in the carriage accompanying the palace servants, there was Lu, who was sitting next to the prince. Father-in-law, followed by two squads of forbidden soldiers, and went straight to Duke Ye's mansion non-stop after leaving the palace.

After entering the square gate, they met Gong Changji's carriage. After getting off the carriage, Gong Jingyun and Gong Zhenghui called their uncle sweetly, and made Gong Changji laugh out loud, holding each other hand in hand. After entering the door, I first went to the aristocratic room to have a face-to-face meeting with Gu Yun, and then met Wei Qian and a pair of sisters sitting inside drinking tea. The girl from the general's family gave people a sense of refreshment just by sitting quietly.

This group of people sat down and went back to visit the old matriarch and Mrs. Ye. The palace chief did not regard himself as an outsider at all. After he came out of Jicheng hall, he led the men and women and the palace servants to the big garden. There is no need for servants in the mansion to lead the way.

The guests in the waterside pavilion were almost here, and the upstairs and downstairs were bustling. The girl from the Zhongming Court stood at the gate, responsible for leading the ladies to the second floor. As soon as he was caught, he held him in his arms and led him to the men's seat.

The little emperor's grandson hummed and chirped and refused.

"Uh~~hmm~~, I'm going upstairs~~~"

"Are you a boy? Upstairs are all beautiful sisters. How can you go and whisper to them? Are you a girl?"

"The scenery upstairs is good."

"The scenery upstairs is beautiful, but the delicious food is the first to eat downstairs. We always serve the delicious food downstairs first. Which one do you choose?"

Little Huangsun tilted his head, reluctantly making a decision.

"Okay, who told me I was a boy, I'll be downstairs."

"That's right, we also have many adventure stories to tell you."

"Okay! I want to hear a story!" The four or five-year-old boy immediately forgot to pester his sister, and happily hugged Gong Changji's neck and sat at the same table with him.

Gong Changji is the youngest son of his family, and as a little uncle, he is good at coaxing children.

On the second floor, the ladies who were invited were almost all there. They sat around two big round tables and took turns turning the turntable to get the food they wanted. However, hot tea and hot milk tea were neglected today, and the girls loved it. Drink orange soda.

Gu Yun had a treat for the holidays today, so naturally he had to call the second and third brothers and sisters. Gu Xu and his sisters all declined. Only the third-bedroom Gu Jing and five younger sisters came. The seventh young master was still excluded from this kind of event. of.

As soon as there were more girls, they naturally divided into two tables and chatted in various ways. Gu Hui sat there without saying a word. After the girls knew who she was, they didn't deliberately provoke her. Last year, the scandal of Gu Hui's family was well known in the capital. Well, these days, the charming girls don't really know how to get along with a child with a special situation like Gu Hui, and when they see her quiet, they just treat her as an introverted girl and just ignore her.

When Gu Yun and Gu Chen finally came to Shuixie, they brought the last guest who arrived, Ye Junting, the daughter of the Ye family. He invited his brothers and sisters to come to his house to celebrate the Lantern Festival, so it is also necessary to send an invitation letter to the Ye family. After all, everyone knows the relationship between Duke Ye's mansion, Uncle Ye's family and the East Palace.

The ladies here have no deep hatred with Ye Junting, they just hate that she sometimes has no control over her mouth and always offends people with her words, but since she is here today, everyone will ask her to sit down and eat and drink together as usual.

Gu Yan, the fourth young lady of the Gu family, as the host of the female seats, greeted everyone generously, and politely asked the maids to tell Bai Kou that all the guests had arrived.

After a while, the dishes started to be served upstairs and downstairs. As usual, each table first served a jar of Fushouquan. Even Shao Xinwei and Ye Junting, who had eaten palace dishes, couldn't help but be moved. They praised the delicacy and deserved to be included in the palace menu.

One urn of soup is divided into one table, there is no soup base left, and all kinds of seafood in the soup are also eaten cleanly. The daughters who are guests and eat meals on weekdays still want to keep in shape. Faced with this I couldn't bear the delicious food, so I ate all of it.

After finishing the soup, the ladies left the table for a walk, emptying their stomachs and waiting to eat the roast leg of lamb, and it was a little hot to sit indoors, so they all went to the third floor by coincidence, and stood on the platform to enjoy the scenery and enjoy the breeze , Aftertaste the taste of that urn soup.

"Bai Kou is indeed the daughter of the Bai family. Her soup is really delicious."

"Bai Kou is really good. There are fewer female cooks than male cooks. She has such a long face."

"She is also capable, and even manages the business for Gu Yun. I really don't know why she has so many strange ideas in her mind. It's obvious that she didn't have a good life a few years ago."

"If my girl is half as capable as Bai Kou, I'll wake up laughing from my dreams."

"Isn't it, I'm sure I will too."

The daughters of Qianjin laughed and said, knowing that Bai Kou was not there, they were just happy to boast.

"Bai Kou's strength is not limited to this little thing." Ye Junting listened for a long time, and couldn't help but interrupt.

"What do you know? Let's hear it?" After eating and chatting, the girls surrounded Ye Junting together.

"You don't believe it when you say it. The person who actually saved the grandson was actually Bai Kou. It was she who overturned the two kidnappers and rescued the grandson with her own hands and took the grandson to the carriage. It wasn't the child who publicly declared that he ran away by himself. Come out and hide in Gu Yun's carriage."

"real or fake?!"

"I heard that the two kidnappers are grown men, and Bai Kou is facing the enemy head-on?"

"Could it be that Bai Kou knows martial arts?" A pair of sisters brought by Wei Qian became interested.

"Farewell to martial arts, can Bai Kou's strength compare to that of an adult man?"

"Believe it or not, anyway, this is the truth of the matter. The whole incident was written by Bai Kou himself, and then a story was adapted based on the truth. Those pieces of paper were sent to the palace, and finally The announcement in the palace is not too far from the content of the story she wrote, at most some embellishments have been made to make the story look more reasonable."

Ye Junting is proud of the truth she has mastered that others do not know.
