Ruan's wife is pregnant

Chapter 138 Peach Blossom Crisp

Ruan Cailing was about to lie down, when she heard Qing Rui's question, she was stunned. She forgot that she had learned it in her previous life. Logically speaking, she should know nothing about herself now. She doesn't like the kitchen, and she doesn't like to cook. , but she only learned one peach blossom cake.

"I saw Xiyin and the others doing it before, and I didn't think it was difficult."

Qing Rui let out an oh, lowered her head and went out tentatively.

When Master Wang’s portrait was delivered to Prince Xuan’s Mansion, Gu Jinxi was not there, and King Xuan and Princess Wang were not there either. Only the old lady and princess were in the huge Xuan Palace, and the afternoon sun was just right, and the old lady was basking in the sun in the yard outside. Seeing someone walking towards Gu Jinxi's yard with things in their hands, he called over.

"What is this?" asked the old lady.

The guard said, "This is the portrait sent by Master Wang of the capital. It is said that Gu Jinxi invited the portrait some time ago, and he just baked it and sent it back."

Portrait!The old lady was curious, so she asked the guards to open it up to take a look, and when they saw the person inside, they recognized Ruan Cailing at a glance.

The old princess couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear. She finally saw that Gu Jinxi was willing to get close to a girl, especially Ruan Cailing. She especially liked this girl from Dingguo's mansion. She was as sensible as Ruan Su's, and had everyone She has a ladylike demeanor, is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is a well-deserved eldest lady!
It would be best for such a girl to be the future imperial concubine!
"Come on, let me take a closer look! Alas, this girl hasn't come here recently, and I don't know what she's busy with!" The old lady touched Ruan Cailing's side face in the portrait, and said with emotion.

The guard thought for a while and said, "You can't blame the young lady for not coming to see you. The young lady is sick, and it seems to be quite serious. Her knee was injured and she had a high fever for a long time. The son is also unable to move his legs because of the young lady. Only then did Master Wang come to give a portrait of the eldest lady, and another one was sent to Dingguo Duke's mansion."

"Leg hurt? What happened?" the old lady asked anxiously.

But these, the guards don’t know, Dingguo’s mansion is very tight-lipped and there is no news at all. The news that the eldest lady is ill is still heard from Mu Bai. After all, the son didn’t come back all night. There is no one in the sky, so I must ask.

Otherwise, when the time comes, the princes and concubines will ask them for someone, where will a group of their guards go to find the prince!

"It turned out to be sick, no wonder, you, go to my storeroom to pick some good medicinal materials, send them to Dingguo's mansion, and give them to Ling'er with your own hands, and say that I am unable to move and can't see her in person, let her treat her well Now, at such a young age, you can't let the root of the disease fall!" said the old lady and princess.

The guard cupped his hands and said, "Yes."

Ever since the birthday of the old lady and concubine, everyone in Xuanwang Mansion knew that the old lady and the princess were very fond of Ruan Cailing, and wished that Ruan Cailing would marry them as their daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law, but Ruan Cailing and Gu Jinxi I didn't feel anything.

And after that, something happened to Dingguo's mansion, that is, Shen Yunyun and Cheng Xuan's.

When Shen Yunyun and Cheng Lin were discussing this matter in Prince Xuan's Mansion, they were overheard. After that person told Gu Jinxi, after a few days, the old lady, concubine and others also knew about it, and they all felt that Cheng Lin Shi and Shen Yunyun are vicious.

At that time, the old lady and princess said that it would be better to just make the girl Shen Yunyun, and save herself from staying in Dingguo's mansion to embarrass herself.

But Gu Jinxi disagreed, he said that this person should be left to Ruan Cailing, no matter what, Ruan Cailing will always find a way, and they don't need to worry about it.

This saves the old lady and concubine from getting angry.

As a result, Shen Yunyun and Cheng Xuan got married later, and on the day of the wedding, a woman from a brothel also entered the family together. The old lady and princess felt that this was all flattering Shen Yunyun. For a girl like this, it is fine to be a concubine. Deserving of the position of a wife.

Moreover, the Cheng Lin family who got married is not a good person. At such an old age, he actually plots against other girls with a little girl.

The old concubine told King Xuan that King Xuan was not allowed to help Cheng Lisheng's family no matter whether it was inside or outside the court.

Of course, Gu Yu didn't even know who Cheng Lisheng was, but he heard that Cheng Lisheng was picked up by Lin Yicheng, which means that Cheng Lisheng belonged to Lin Yicheng, so he must be the Ninth Prince Mu Yi. Chen's henchmen.

No matter it was to avoid suspicion or whatever, Gu Yu would not have any relationship with Cheng Lisheng.

When the guards delivered the supplements to Duke Dingguo's mansion, Ruan Cailing was making peach blossom cakes in the kitchen with Aunt Mei and Qing Rui.

At first, Qing Rui and Aunt Mei thought that Ruan Cailing was just here to play around, but they didn't expect that Ruan Cailing was really good at making peach blossom cakes, and she didn't need Aunt Mei's help from the beginning to the end, so Qing Rui followed to add firewood Category.

"Miss, there are guards from Prince Xuan's Mansion outside the door, they want to see you." Li'er ran over and said to Ruan Cailing.

Ruan Cailing wiped her hands, asked Qing Rui to pay attention to the heat, and raised her head to ask Li'er, "People from Prince Xuan's Mansion? Is it Mu Han or Mu Bai?"

So far, among the people in Prince Xuan's Mansion, apart from Gu Jinxi, the two brothers Mu Bai and Mu Han who have been here, she has never seen the others, so she naturally thought that Gu Jinxi asked them to come and give her a present. something.

Li'er shook her head, "No, it's someone she doesn't know, just a guard of Prince Xuan's Mansion."

This time, Ruan Cailing was surprised and tilted her head.

She asked the guards to bring the guards to the Sihua Building. She sat down and rested. It didn’t take much time to make peach blossom cakes, but her knees still couldn’t bear the load and needed a proper rest. After all the tossing, she just wanted to sit now I don't want to run around.

"Join Miss." The guard knelt on one knee and saluted.

Ruan Cailing took a sip of tea, raised her hand to block the sun, and looked at the guards bowing their heads. They were indeed strangers, but they must be from Prince Xuan's Mansion. After all, they were wearing the armor of the guards of Prince Xuan's Mansion.

"Get up, I haven't seen you before, who told you to come?" Ruan Cailing asked.

As soon as the guard raised his hand, a few people came in carrying a small box. The guard said, "Our old lady heard that the eldest lady was ill, so she specially asked her subordinates to bring the supplements. The old lady said that her legs and feet are not good because of her age. Walk around, let the young lady take good care of her body."

Granny and Princess!

The teacup in Ruan Cailing's hand almost tipped over. She put the teacup on the table, pointed to the box behind and said, "Grandma asked you to bring these to me? Grandma knew I was hurt?"

"Yes, Master Wang's painting was sent to Prince Xuan's mansion today. The old lady and princess saw it and asked about your recent situation. Knowing that you were injured, she ordered her subordinates to come."

It turned out to be like this, since it was sent by the old lady and concubine, she couldn't be negligent, Ruan Cailing hurriedly asked Li'er, Meizi and others to put away the things, Ruan Cailing glanced at Li'er, the latter walked to the side of the guard, and gave it to the guard alone. A bar of silver.

"I'll trouble you to make a trip, and please also pass on Ling'er's thanks."

"Yes, the subordinate will leave!"

After the guards left, Ruan Cailing asked Li'er to open the boxes. Inside were all kinds of good medicinal materials for nourishing the body. At first glance, it was the precious medicinal materials bestowed by the emperor to the old lady and concubine. There was also yellow paper for the royal family inside.

Ruan Cailing clicked tut twice, she just hurt her knee, she didn't want to die, she actually picked so many things for hanging, the old lady and princess just gave orders, it's the servant's responsibility to pick and deliver the things, it should be the one just now People look at the pick.

"Let's send it to Uncle Long. In the future, no matter who brings the medicinal materials, they will be given to Uncle Long." Ruan Cailing said.

Li'er responded and asked people to put away all the things. Ruan Cailing wondered if Gu Jinxi would come today. She made peach blossom cakes, which should have been brought back by the guards, but they were just baked in the pan, and they were still there. It will take a while to take it away.

If the guards had been kept waiting, they might have waited until the sun had set.

It's better to wait until it's ready, and then have someone send it over, that's more innovative.

But if Gu Jinxi comes, he can still eat hot food!
Ruan Cailing rolled her eyes and asked Li'er, "Where is your son?"

"Which prince are you asking?" Li'er stood behind Ruan Cailing and helped her massage her shoulders. From Ruan Cailing's mouth, there would be two princes, and there were only two princes in the entire capital.

Ruan Cailing rolled her eyes, "Naturally, he is the eldest son of our Dingguo mansion, where is my elder brother?"

"Oh, the eldest son has gone out, but Jiang Chen said that he will be back in a while. It seems that he has gone to the Yanhua Building! Checking with Xiyin!" Li'er said.

Some time ago, she was the one who was looking at the ledger, but recently she felt powerless and had to let Ruan Xuchen do it by herself.

It turns out that the eldest brother is busy with the business of the store recently, so he should come back sooner.

"Go and find out for me, where is Prince Xuan's son?"

"Ask me what I do?"

Li'er was about to step back, when she heard an elegant and melodious voice from behind, Ruan Cailing turned her head to look in surprise, "When did you come!"

"I was there when grandma sent you something, but I didn't want them to see me, so I didn't come out." Gu Jinxi sat opposite Ruan Cailing to himself.

Ruan Cailing said with a smile, "I made peach blossom cakes just now, and Zhengyang Qingrui is baking them, try it!"

"Okay, are you tired?" Gu Jinxi asked.

She looked down at her knees, "It's okay, I could finish it in half an hour, but because I can't stand for a long time, I can only do it for a while and rest for a while, and it took more than an hour to finish it."

"It's okay, as long as it's made by you, I like to eat it." Gu Jinxi said, showing that he didn't have much hope for Ruan Cailing's dim sum.

How delicious the dim sum can be made by a young lady who doesn't touch the spring water with her ten fingers!
But Gu Jinxi was very cooperative.

Ruan Cailing widened her eyes and slapped the table, "My cooking must be delicious! The peach blossom cakes I made are the most suitable for your taste in the whole world!"

These words are all yours.

Gu Jinxi nodded submissively, "Yes, yes, as long as it's made by you, it must be to my taste."
