delicious little cook

Chapter 559

The curtain of the car was lifted, revealing the excited and happy smiling face of the prince's eldest daughter, Gong Jingyun.

After the ceremony was over, everyone got on their horses and carriages. The boys and girls on the horses disappeared without a trace. The carriages lined up and walked slowly. The guards from various prefectures walked around the carriages. He walked to the two pavilions in the suburbs in a mighty manner.

Walking ten miles out of the city, there is a Shili Pavilion, which is also the boundary of the urban area of ​​the capital. With this as the boundary, outside the Shili Pavilion is the outskirts of the capital, and every ten miles there is such a stone pavilion for travelers to rest and shelter from the rain. A post station, some natural villages have been formed around the post station, and some have developed into small towns.

Liangtingdu is a grove near the water between the first stone pavilion and the post station. The water flow is gentle, the waterside is flat and the grass is green. The kids from the rich family galloped their horses and frolicked throughout the day.

Bai Kou slept comfortably in the carriage. She has to take care of various affairs these days, and she is busy from early morning to night every day, so she uses it to sleep whenever she has a little free time, and she is always energetic to deal with various things .

Gong Changji rode back and ran back again, tapped the window pane of the car with the whip handle, and asked Bai Kou to come out and ride.

"Don't sleep, don't sleep, come out and ride horses with us, don't disappoint this great spring."

"Grandpa, have you been bullied by our prince again?" Bai Kou let out a sleepy laugh from the car window, "You can't do this, you are the future prince of the county."

"I'm an honest man, not as insidious and cunning as your family's son."

"Oh, it's a beautiful spring. Animals are in heat. You have to be considerate of his suffering as a single dog. Don't share his knowledge with him. Go talk to your second Miss Ning about the romance. You can also beware of the torch in his left hand and the kerosene in his right."

"It really doesn't matter if you tease your family so unscrupulously?"

"Our son is so broad-minded that he can sail a sea boat. He won't take this little joke to heart at all."

"Oh? Why don't you try today, where is the bottom line of your family's tolerance?"

"Grandpa, do you believe that you couldn't even touch Miss Ning's hand before we returned to the city?"

Gong Changji suddenly felt a heat on his face for no reason, "Hey, are you scaring me?"

"Would you like to bet?"

"It's a bet." Gu Yun hurried back to the carriage, just in time to catch up with this sentence, "This is a big audience, even unmarried couples have to abide by etiquette, it's fine for them to touch hands, bet he can't even say a word."

"You are so bad!"

"Grandpa, do you want to gamble?" In the carriage, Bai Kou's voice carried an uncontrollable smile.

Gong Zhangji was a little timid, showing a hesitant look.

"Hey, do you want to back down? Is it a man?" Gu Yun was furious immediately.

"Don't bring such a thing, you two, master and servant, have started to join forces, right?"

"Grandpa, do you feel the soaring resentment of the single dog? Do you want to gamble? The spring is beautiful, and the beautiful fiancee is nearby. Don't take advantage of the opportunity of protecting the flowers to have an open and honest relationship, but get entangled with the single dog." Non-stop, it’s really enough leisure.”

Gong Zhangji immediately retreated decisively, "I don't have the same knowledge as you single dogs."

Gu Yun booed and yelled, watching Gong Zhangji ride to Ning Peilan's carriage, to be his flower protector.

Those who watched the excitement around were already laughing hard.

Seeing that the palace chief had run away, Gu Yun asked the coachman to hold the reins, knocked on the window to ask Bai Kou to get out of the car and change horses, and went to talk with the ladies of the Marquis of Fuyang.

Bai Kou yawned and got out of the car with a whip. The guards behind the car helped her untie Zao Ni. She got on the horse and followed Gu Yun to catch up with the girls from the Marquis of Fuyang. It's all amazing, except for the little princess, there are only accompanying maids and some necessary luggage in the carriage.

The group of people on horseback moved nimbly. After passing Shili Pavilion, they walked for a while. After seeing a river appearing in the field, they left the official road and went to the water's edge. Grassland, so although Bai Kou was driven off the carriage under the pretext of chatting with the ladies, in the end, he followed Shi Zi and never left.

After a lot of running around, they finally found a suitable grassland, which can be used for them to rest and have a picnic, as well as for the boys to play a few rounds of polo, and there is a gentle slope between the official road, which is very suitable for The carriage came straight down.

Everyone sent a few accompanying guards back to the official road to lead the convoy over, and the rest of the people were playing horse racing while waiting for everyone to come and meet.

After waiting for almost a stick of incense, the carriage carrying luggage from the Fuyang Hou Mansion came first, unloaded the marching tents, simple tables and chairs and other items from the cart, and began to build a small camp. It seemed warm today, but there was still wind by the water Yes, it would not be good for delicate and expensive ladies to catch a cold and get sick after going out to play, and traditional military marquises like the Marquis of Fuyang are very good at setting up and dismantling camps quickly, so it is the right person to invite them to play together .

Naturally, Bai Kou monopolized a large tent, and brought the food and drinking water from the carriage over here, and the girls from Beppu also brought all kinds of food they brought to this tent. Outside, there were people laying linoleum and tarpaulin on the grass, setting up a stove and lighting a fire, making preparations for a picnic.

It was not up to Bai Kou to put the cooked food on the plate, so she opened her toolbox and took out a set of various fruit cutting knives, the heaviest of which was a hand-operated peeler, which was specially designed to peel apples and pears. What's more, this is also the most commonly eaten fruit in the family, and a powerful family like Duke Ye's mansion only buys the best varieties, which are well-proportioned in size and heavy in weight.

This artifact attracted everyone's attention as soon as it was put on the table. Shuizhen and Gu Hui came over to help after washing their hands. They were already used to this. There was one at the women's tea room, but Bai Kou only used it from Donglinfang. Craftsmen made it, and the teahouse was made by Zhangji Iron Shop. Of course, the power given by the sage is only for Bai Kou, and you can't deceive the king.

There are other girls to help wash the fruit. Bai Kou first mixed a pot of light salt water and prepared a few small cutting boards for cutting fruit. After the apples and pears were washed and brought in, she and Shuizhen Gu Hui began to divide the work.

Bai Kou was in charge of peeling the fruit, Shui Zhen sliced ​​it with a fruit divider, and Gu Hui carried it with the cutting board, and gently poured the fruit slices into salt water to soak for a while to prevent the pulp from browning.

After the onlookers understood how to use this set of tools, they screamed excitedly and strongly demanded to try it out. No matter whether Bai Kou agreed or not, they crowded Bai Kou, Gu Hui and Shui Zhen aside. Now, Shuizhen couldn't help standing beside the salt water basin to fish for fruits, while Bai Kou took Gu Hui to cut oranges with other knives, and someone even brought two baskets of grapefruits, in order to use up the fruits in stock at home today ah.
