Chapter 76 Diet is Important

Gu Yun saw that people were tied up, so he went out first, Pang's mother grabbed Wen's mother and pushed her out, Bai Kou told Lu Doudou and the others not to leave for the time being, and asked Meilun and the others to take care of them, and then hurriedly followed The third young master went directly to Rong En Hall.

The third young master deliberately didn't show any face to Wen's mother, and escorted her to walk along Babu Alley. The masters and wives were all alarmed and rushed to Rong En Hall.

In front of the old matriarch, Mama Pang and Bai Kou testified to the provocative words that Mama Wen said earlier, and her most important sentence happened to be heard by the grandson. They escorted him back, and asked the eldest son to write a letter, telling the third grandpa that their family was not welcome to attend the filial piety banquet.

The old lady is the eldest sister-in-law, and the third grandfather is the younger brother. If such a quarrel breaks out, the third grandfather's family will have a lot of trouble tonight.

Seeing Mother Wen being dragged away by the guards, and the sons and daughters-in-law gathered around the old lady to comfort her, Gu Yun saw that there was nothing else to do, so he took Bai Kou and sneaked out.

"When did the third grandmother send someone over?"

"When the small kitchen was busy, Mama Pang brought her here, and then she was picky about whether the girls were clean or not. I've never heard of vegetarians being picky about this. Did Mama Wen use the tiger skin as a banner without permission? ?”

"No, she and the third grandmother have been vegetarians for many years. As they get older, their tempers become more and more eccentric. During the grandpa's hot filial piety, they made everyone very unhappy, and the third grandpa apologized to the grandmother when he was old."

"Maidservant, can you ask a few more questions?"

"You ask first."

"Does the third young master know what the three old ladies eat in their daily diet? Mother Wen went into the small kitchen, took a pure white handkerchief to check the sanitation in the corner, and finally found a few drops of oil on the stove and picked it up." It’s like a treasure chest, it’s just a few drops from the little girls when they pumped oil from the oil tank earlier, and my mother came over before I had time to wipe it off. But it’s just camellia oil, as for being so excited.”

"That's strange. She ate vegetarian dishes cooked in vegetable oil during the several banquets during the hot filial piety. Has her eating habits changed in recent years?"

"Third young master, when have you seen the third old lady recently?"

"During the New Year's greetings. She was too messy during the hot filial piety, causing the clansmen to whisper among each other, and the relationship between relatives faded."

"What was she like when you saw her? I heard from Mama Pang that the third old lady was four years younger than the old lady, so when you saw her, did she look younger or older?"

"It's even older! It's not an exaggeration to say that she is ten years older than our old lady. Our old lady has gray hair, a good complexion, a loud, kind voice, and a kind and kind voice. The third old lady has dark complexion, all white hair, drooping skin and a fierce face."

"Third young master, you must stand with the old matriarch. Don't invite the third old lady in for a filial feast. No one in the house can serve her."

"How to say?"

"The appearance of the third old lady shows that she has become obsessed with vegetarianism. Whoever invites her to a banquet will have bad luck."

"Speak carefully."

"Her vegetarian diet is not a healthy way of eating at all. Maybe she lives on boiled green leafy vegetables dipped in hot sauce every day, and does not eat beans or nuts, which are essential foods for vegetarians. It is not auspicious. The third old lady is going to become a fairy."

Gu Yun stopped suddenly, turned his head to look in the direction of Rong En Hall, nodded, and continued walking.

"Fortunately, our old lady does not give up meat."

"The old lady is more than 60 people, and she should pay more attention to her diet, avoid greasy meat, don't eat fat meat, eat lean meat and ribs instead, poultry meat, fish, shrimp and crab, etc., just adjust red meat , You can eat more of this beef to strengthen your muscles and bones."

"The old lady likes to eat braised pork. She said she doesn't like lean meat."

"Didn't the old matriarch have the imperial doctor come over regularly to ask for a safe pulse? What did the imperial doctor say?"

"The imperial doctor also said that she should eat less greasy food when she gets older, but it's useless. As juniors, we can't forcefully grab her chopsticks and stop her from eating."

"Is the old lady eating pig's feet?"

"Pig feet never serve the masters' dinner table in the mansion."

"For the sake of the old lady's health, don't you try it once?"

"Where is the delicious pig's foot?"

"It's delicious on that layer of skin. Stew it slowly over low heat to get the glue out of the skin. It's sticky, fragrant, smooth and refreshing. A front pig's foot can be chopped into many small pieces for the old lady. A small cup is at most one-third of a pig's foot, which not only satisfies her craving, but also is healthier than eating big fat meat."

"Is it that delicious?"

"Third young master, if you don't mind, why don't you buy one someday and try it out?"

"You can try it, but what if it doesn't taste good?"

"Third young master, don't worry, the girls are all growing up and need a lot of food."

Gu Yun stopped again, and before Bai Kou could react, he raised his hand and flicked her forehead.

"So you said so much, essentially implying, young master, that I usually make you hungry?"

Bai Kou looked left and right, dared not admit it but didn't deny it, but also had a pitiful taste.

Seeing this attitude, Gu Yun became a little serious.

"The food given by the West Kitchen is really not enough to eat? Are they hungry or are you hungry? You may still be hungry. These few days let you start practicing martial arts, which consumes a lot of energy. It is reasonable to eat more."

"Third young master, the third-class girl is responsible for all the cleaning and cleaning work. The two courtyards of Wenling courtyard, indoor and outdoor, furniture verandah, are cleaned and scrubbed every day. Now there is more work for the maidservants. This is pure physical strength. You are not at home during the day and you can’t see how they do things, so you don’t know how hard they are, Sister Meilun and the others all come here.” Bai Kou also replied very seriously, her tone was flat, without any accusations Meaning, simply stating the facts.

Gu Yun pursed his lips and looked at Bai Kou for a while, then folded his hands and sighed, "You're pushing an inch."

Bai Kou smiled and gave a blessing, "Thank you, Third Young Master, for your compassion."

Gu Yun beckoned, and the two continued to walk towards Wenling Courtyard.

"How do you prepare your meals in East Kitchen?"

"Use good ingredients to finish the meals for the masters first, and the leftovers are just for the cooks to eat."

"What if it's not enough?"

"Then divide them from top to bottom according to the level. If there is not enough meat, there will always be some dishes. If there is not enough meat, there will be pickles, and the staple food will be full."

"So it's true that you haven't had enough to eat every day when you come to my courtyard." Gu Yun discovered a hidden fact, and was a little depressed.

"It's okay, anyway, I definitely didn't enjoy my meal in the East Kitchen."

Just as he was talking, Bai Kou's stomach suddenly let out a grunt.

Just as Bai Kou clutched his stomach in embarrassment and looked at Gu Yun with a surprised expression, the third young master's stomach also let out a grunt.

"Okay, two hungry ghosts, don't make fun of each other." Gu Yun rubbed his stomach and continued walking in a bit of frustration, "I thought I would have something to eat when I came back from school."

"Except for fruit and herbal tea, there is no ready-made food in the small kitchen. The semi-finished ingredients are still on the table. At that time, I took a few pieces of frozen fresh meat from the ice cellar. It has been more than an hour for Wen's mother to torment. I don't know if it's still fresh."

"Throw it away when you go back, and don't eat it, just in case."

"Well. Let's eat early tonight? The servant girl will go to the ice cellar to bring back the meat for dinner. I marinated four big duck legs early in the morning, and it's almost ready to be taken out and put into the oven."

Thinking of the smell of grilled steak in honey sauce, Gu Yun happily let Bai Kou take a step ahead, and he walked back slowly with his hands behind his back.
