delicious little cook

Chapter 937 Women's Activities
After the two of them had finished eating, they removed the tableware and replaced it with paper and pens. Gu Yun will be busy with housework next, and Bai Kou's cold has long since healed. For dinner, let's beg for a jug of old wine and sip it happily.

Gong Changji couldn't bear Gu Yun's embarrassing appearance, and teased him that if he drank like this, his stomach would only get bigger and bigger, don't try to lose weight to the slim figure that made Bai Kou drool before.

Gu Yun didn't pay attention to Gong Changji's blow, he happily drank a pot of old wine and went home to rest, preparing to pay homage to his grandfather.

At the same time, after dinner, Ning Peilan came to Bai Kou's room to exercise under her guidance. By the way, it was also the time for the two women to chat and gossip. Listening to Bai Kou describing the current King Qing Gongheng, Ning Peilan laughed so hard several times. force.

Bai Kou took out the bag of small abalones and asked Ning Peilan to keep them. She had seen the quantity of abalones and could make them several times, and her room was not suitable for storing such precious dry goods. Ning Peilan was not polite to her, and said with a smile Well, let the girls take it to the kitchen tomorrow, and tell Bai Kou that she should come in person to cook.

The next day, Bai Kou brought the seeds to the factory to set up errands. Now the greenhouses are idle, and all the plants planted in spring have been harvested, and the planting boxes have been cleaned up, waiting for the next spring to start again, so It happened to be convenient for her to try growing vegetables.

The farmers who helped the factory to plant them all invited back again. Seeing the three big bags of vegetable seeds at Bai Kou's feet, they were very excited. Bai Kou asked to set aside a greenhouse for breeding. After all, seeds are precious. Come on, if you don't breed, there will be no seeds after eating.

Except for breeding, the factory keeps a greenhouse for its own consumption, and the rest of the greenhouses are sold to the outside world.

Because there are so many seeds, and the farmers are all illiterate, they can't read the notes in each seed packet. Bai Kou also specially arranged for those cook girls who have been studying for a year in a girls' school to help them, and let them watch the farmers. Don't mess around, the seeds are limited and cannot be wasted.

The seeds are collected by the cooks, and the farmers go to prepare the planting boxes and the bamboo poles for the melon trellis, as well as the stove to heat up the greenhouse. It needs to be raised to the summer temperature, and it is also necessary to prevent heatstroke in the greenhouse and the large temperature difference between the inside and outside. Cold problem.

This kind of preparation needs to be done for a few days. If there are any new purchases, they will write a list, and Bai Kou ordered the accountant to reimburse them.

As soon as there is an action in the greenhouse, the whole factory soon knows the whole story, and everyone happily waits for the fresh green leafy vegetables in winter.

Bai Kou was busy here, Gu Yun changed the carriage with her, and borrowed her carriage to take his parents and grandmother to pay homage to his grandfather.

The ancestral tomb of the Gu family in Ye State’s mansion is a cemetery bestowed by the founding ancestor of the country. All the founding heroes at that time had such a cemetery, so the Gu family members who multiplied and developed in the capital were buried there, not far from the capital. , if young people go to pay homage for one day is enough, but for the old lady to go, considering the physical strength of the old man, it is natural to have to prepare for two days.

The old matriarch has not been out of the house for several years, because she is too old to climb into the carriage because her legs and feet are inconvenient. Mrs. Gu will go out several times a month to participate in various tea parties, and the old matriarch's daily life is even more boring , so this time she wanted to pay homage in person, and with Bai Kou's carriage and Lao Cui's old handlebar driving, her family supported the old lady to go out and relax.

The carriage was waiting in the side alley outside the mansion, and the second and third wards also came. After all, the mansion was just a division of the family and not the removal of the second ward from the family. Naturally, the whole family was dispatched for such an important matter as paying homage to the former Duke, but except for the long ward, Both the second and third rooms can only take traditional carriages.

The old lady grabbed the door handle and got into the car easily. Gu Yun, who got into the car first, took care of his grandmother to sit in the upright seat, then stretched out his hand to help his mother to sit down, followed by his father and younger brother, and finally locked the car door from the inside. superior.

There was a tea tray and a hot water bottle on the table, there was a heater under the table, and the ventilation window was also open. Gu Yun drew the curtains on the grandmother's side a little bit to keep her out of the cold wind without completely covering the scenery outside the window.

When everyone was ready, the convoy slowly drove out of Tianshuifang under the escort of the guards. The three elders in the carriage smiled and praised repeatedly for the smooth four-*** carriage.

Gu Yun borrowed Bai Kou's carriage, so Bai Kou had no choice but to use Gu Yun's carriage to remove the decorations that indicated his status as the son of Ye Kingdom. When the palace drove out, no one would care who was sitting in the car.

Originally, Bai Kou had made up her mind to take a vacation during the few days when Gu Yun borrowed the carriage, and didn't want to use his carriage to jolt around the city, but right now the factory is busy, so she can only make do with it and make fun of it by the way. It is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

Fortunately, after only two days of dealing with it, Gu Yun returned the carriage and asked Bai Kou for the address of the carpenter. In just these two days, grandma had already decided to build a new carriage to use with her eldest daughter-in-law. To be able to catch up with the visits to relatives and friends that started in the twelfth lunar month, I decided to use the same wood as Bai Kou's carriage, so that it can be made in one month, without delaying the New Year.

The schedules of Bai Kou and Gu Yun were readjusted. The two went to the factory together by car every day, and then Bai Kou stayed in the factory to handle daily affairs, and Gu Yun used her carriage to go to the city to visit various business partners and deal with the government.

In a world where men are in power, men deeply believe that women have long hair and short knowledge, and it is ridiculous to discuss serious matters with women. Bai Kou is a special case of imperial court acquiescence. She knows very well that men talk about her in private because of her. The backstage is strong enough and she really has the ability to force the men to treat her kindly, so Gu Yun suddenly turned his attention to the factory business, and Bai Kou was naturally happy to let him show his face outside.

Jingyun and his brother were thinking about the delicious abalone, so they wrote to ask Bai Kou what day would be convenient, and by the way, if she would like to participate in the girls' warm soup party, if there is such a chance, let's all go to the mountain to soak in the hot spring, it is winter A great treat.

When Bai Kou told Ning Peilan, Ning Peilan was also very interested, so she wrote back to the princess and added two people.

Gong Changji learned about this from his wife, so he told Gu Yun. Just thinking of the picture of Bai Kou sitting in the hot spring wrapped in a bath towel, Gu Yun would have a nosebleed, so he touched his nose to find his mother and asked Mr. Gu Madam, do you want to join in the fun and soak in the hot spring to relieve fatigue.

Mrs. Gu was also interested, but felt that this was a gathering of young girls, and it was inappropriate for her, an old woman, to join in the fun.

Gu Yun went to find Bai Kou, and Bai Kou wrote to the princess to ask in detail what age people were participating in this warm soup meeting, and finally found out that mother, daughter, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law did participate together, because the hot spring they were going to belonged to the royal family. All, the range is very large, and everyone will play in their own way at that time, and there is no embarrassment that the identity and age are not suitable to be forced together, but because of the diet, the number of people must be calculated in advance, including the accompanying servants.

Mrs. Gu learned that this was the case, so she called Aunt Rong to take Huihui, and asked Mrs. Gu to take her 16-year-old Gu Ya and 15-year-old Gu Juan with her.

Mrs. Gu came back from her sister-in-law's room and thought about it. She only told Gu Ya to pack her luggage, but did not tell Gu Juan that Gu Juan was the eldest daughter born to Aunt Fu. After the aunt gave birth to Gu Shuo, she caused a lot of trouble to the family, which caused the third wife's affection for Gu Juan and her sister to fade away. She didn't want to worry too much about the marriage of the two sisters, marrying a scholar would bring her down.

The eldest lady learned that her sister-in-law only decided to take Gu Ya, and then she remembered that Gu Juan was the daughter of a rich concubine, so she didn't say anything, counted the number of people who wanted to join the family, and handed it over to Bai Kou from Gu Yun, Bai Kou Taking advantage of the opportunity to invite the daughter and brother of the princess to the palace to eat abalone, he gave her the list.

Jingyun and Zhenghui enjoyed a delicious meal to their heart's content. After returning to the East Palace, Jingyun, with the assistance of her mother and concubine, actively prepared for this women's hot soup meeting.
