delicious little cook

Chapter 857

After dinner, Gu Yun went to say good night to the elders. In front of the old grandmother, everything was normal. He was just chatting about some anecdotes on the street. What he talked about in front of his parents was about King Yu. The future is a good thing to celebrate. As for the children involved, they can only be regarded as collateral damage. After all, when the King Yu’s party eliminated dissidents, they never showed mercy to other people’s children. Suffering is nothing but karma.

In addition, Gu Yun told his parents about Bai Kou's conjecture, and mentioned that the laundry room was suspicious, otherwise he would not be able to explain how the dirty diseases that were only passed on from the adults were passed on to the children.

The eldest lady was frightened after hearing this, and decided to order the old matriarch and the masters of the first room to wash their own clothes tomorrow, instead of taking them to the laundry room. Gu Xu of the second room had a lot of entertainment and often played outside. Hanging around in Shangfengyue, God knows if he is clean or not, the Duke of Ye's mansion has such a large population, they can't afford to be burdened by him, for the safety of the whole family, we must guard against him.

As for Gu Hui, the clothes of their master and servants have always been washed and dried in their own yard, and only large items such as bed sheets and quilts are sent to the laundry room. There is no need for them to change their habits, but they still have to inform them tomorrow.

After talking about this, Gu Yun talked about the Eldest Princess, in order to protect her younger brother and mother concubine, it is very likely that she will come to negotiate a peace and benefit exchange, and that there are so many people from the Dacheng Mansion on the farm, it is also a hidden danger for the Eldest Princess to leak secrets at any time. In order to keep it secret, the eldest princess is willing to pay any price, the family of three discussed, if Shi Tianmin wants to talk to Gu Yun tomorrow, what kind of conditions would be better.

After talking about these things one after another, Gu Yun finally talked about the palace's invitation to Mrs. Lan Bao's birthday party. Bai Kou's meat sauce was selected, and as a reward, she also went with her.

Gu Yun and Gong Changji have always speculated that Bai Kou had a secret agreement with the saint to regain his freedom, but they never got any personal acknowledgment from Bai Kou. Duke Ye and his wife didn't even know that Bai Kou was doing his best to make a perfect marriage. At the same time as the servants, there were other little tricks in private behind their backs. Hearing what his son said now, he just regarded it as a happy event in the mansion, and passed it by talking and laughing.

After resigning from her parents and returning to Zhongming Courtyard, Bai Kou was already doing her desk work in the side room, Gu Yun went over to look at it for a while, it was all about the business of the factory, seeing that Bai Kou was busy concentrating, Gu Yun was in a cheap way. Bai Kou sneaked a kiss on the face, and then was beaten by Bai Kou with an elbow, lying on the floor.

"Are you still planning to read tonight? Your lord, sir?" Bai Kou gave him an angry look.

"Okay, okay, I'm going to read, don't read."

Gu Yun quickly crawled from the floor to his small low table, but he only sat obediently for half an hour, then he threw down the book, insisting that he was sleepy and wanted to sleep, so he went back to the bedroom first, and waited for Bai Kou to finish packing. Go to serve him to bed.

Gu Yun slept really comfortably that night, but when he woke up in the morning, Bai Kou almost kicked him out of bed. Bai Kou was so sleepy that he thought that the young master was crawling on her bed in the middle of the night, so he kicked her out without hesitation. .

In the name of asking for compensation for being kicked and hurting, Gu Yun suppressed Bai Kou and prevented her from getting up. Of course, the end was predictable for such a dry fire in the early morning. ash.

After breakfast, Gu Yun waited for Gong Zhangji to go out on the street, got into his carriage and the two of them walked together, discussing the matter of King Yu and how to get more political benefits from the Eldest Princess through Shi Tianmin.

"If what Bai Kou said is correct, the sage has long lost patience with the Royal Yu Party, we will try our best to extract the most benefits from the eldest princess this time." Gong Changji smiled.

"Well, King Yu's future is over, and so is the future of his supporters. The benefits that the eldest princess can use in exchange are actually very limited. The biggest possibility is the dark history of the ministers. A little more exchange is One thing, there may not be such a good opportunity next time." Gu Yun was thinking about how to greet Shi Tianmin so that it would look natural.

"You haven't offended Bai Kou recently, have you?"

"what?"

"It's nothing, I'm just worried about your safety. I think Bai Kou's damage to men must be more than those two moves. How about you lure her third move and let me see it?"

"I risked my life just to satisfy your curiosity?"

"We are buddies."

"Look at my mouth shape, get out."

"Look and see, this is turning heads. Originally, I wanted to tell you that Mrs. Lan Bao's birthday party and my husband and wife are going to attend. Would you like me to taste the recipe made by the royal chefs according to Bai Kou's recipe for you?" What does meat sauce taste like?"

"No, I have my own tongue, and I can taste it myself."

"Oh? You also received the invitation?"

"I won the polo match, of course I have an invitation."

"Just you going alone?"

"no?"

"Is it really just you?"

"what do you want to say?"

"I thought that Bai Kou's meat sauce recipe was selected, and she would be rewarded?"

"She has it, and the reward is that she will go too."

"That's all?"

"That's what the palace letter says."

"Then how are you feeling now?"

"What mood?"

"Are you pretending to be stupid or dead?"

"I don't understand what you're saying."

"The duck's mouth is stubborn." Gong Zhangji poked Gu Yun's forehead, "We used to always say that Bai Kou has a holy favor, whether the saint really loves her, we will find out at the birthday party."

"I think the sage's love for her may be to praise and reward her in public at the birthday party, making her the most famous servant girl in the capital, nothing else."

"why?"

"For the sake of safety. Bai Kou is an official servant for a day, and if she touches a hair of her, it is against my government of Ye State. If she is restored to her citizenship and becomes a commoner, anyone can make trouble for her. King Yu has no political future. , but even if he is an idle prince, he is the eldest son of a sage, the noble Prince Yu, after he calms down and figured out the joints, Bai Kou, who has regained his freedom, is the best target."

Gong Zhangji was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"You're right. Bai Kou was attacked twice. Except for the first time, she really couldn't figure it out. The second time, she really wanted her to die. I don't know who did it, but I can guess that it must be Yu. A member of the royal party. So, give up your idea of ​​building a new house in Xilefang, if Bai Kou regains her freedom, she can only live in my palace, she may be unhappy, but it's not up to her."

"The new house is not built just for her. The scale of the factory will become larger and larger in the future. In order to show respect for those senior executives, it is right to provide them with a good house. In order to attract better talents .”

Gong Zhangji rolled his eyes, "It seems that Bai Kou has cultivated you, and you have a business mind."

"Congratulations, aren't you?"

"Congratulations. It's worth a big drink. Come to my house tonight?"

"If the conversation with Shi Tianmin goes well, it's really worth having a drink."

"Don't think too much, it will go well."

Gong Changji patted Gu Yun's shoulder vigorously, causing him to grin his teeth, and patted back to retaliate against him for deliberately hitting hard.
