Chapter 14

"Your maidservant understands!" Mother Kang has been following Mrs. Gan for so many years, she has already cultivated a delicate heart, and she understands what Mrs. Gan means when she hears it.Although Gan Wei is a daughter of the first generation, she has a domineering temper, and the most important thing is that she is simple-minded. Such a person has no way to survive in the backyard, let alone win the emperor's favor in the harem.Although this Miss Six is ​​from a poor family background, she is many times stronger than Gan Wei in terms of scheming and appearance. Although she cannot become the main concubine in her capacity, she will definitely become the favorite concubine.Concubine Yue's favor in the palace is not fading now, but Emperor Yong'an is over forty years old, if the Gan family wants to survive, they must plan for the future, and choosing a suitable prince is the most direct way.

"You have to teach the six girls well, especially how to please men!" Mrs. Gan took the watering spoon from Mama Kang's hand, took a spoonful of water, and poured it gently into the orchid pot, with a relaxed and quiet expression , as if everything they said at this time was just chatting about the weather.Mother Kang stood quietly on the side, holding a small bucket of water in her hand, and moved slowly following Mrs. Gan's footsteps.

In the dining room of the Prime Minister's Mansion, a delicate red sandalwood table was filled with various dishes, and people from the Gan Mansion sat around the table.Except for the second prince, Gan Lu, Mrs. Gan, the eldest lady, Gan Qi, and Gan Wei, the aunts of the Gan family and the children of concubines are not qualified to sit here to eat.

"Father, what are these things? Can I eat them?" Gan Wei stared displeased at the food on the dining table, and muttered dissatisfied with her small mouth.

Gan Lu was also puzzled, looking at the second prince sitting in the upper seat and the old lady beside him.Hearing that the Second Prince is going to have dinner at the Prime Minister's Mansion tonight, the old lady specifically told him to let her people prepare it, but how can this table of simple tea and light meals entertain the Second Prince.

"These dishes are novel!" The second prince looked embarrassed when he saw Gan Lu. His good upbringing prevented him from revealing his true emotions at any time, although he also despised this table of food.

"These are all prepared by the sixth girl!" Seeing that the second prince seemed dissatisfied, Mrs. Gan immediately came out to smooth things over.She had already guessed Ganfu's intentions. For a pampered person like the second prince, delicacies from mountains and seas could no longer arouse their appetite. Only these seemingly simple but delicious things could make him remember forever.It is said that to grab a man's heart, you must first grab his stomach. Although a prince does not need a wife who can enter the kitchen, he needs a caring person who can give him warmth at any time, and Gan Wei Compared with Ganfu, it is too far behind in this point.

"Oh? Then why don't you see Miss Six?" Nangong Bo heard that Gan Fu made it, and his expression immediately became richer. He took back the last snack and presented it to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother liked it very much, and her appetite increased a lot. , Father also praised him for his filial piety, so he came here specially today, just to bring some snacks back to the Queen Mother.

"Brother Bo, with her identity, how can she sit here and eat with you!" Gan Wei was completely a young girl in love in front of Nangong Bo, and she was a little displeased when she heard Nangong Bo asking about Gan Fu.Her brother had already told her what happened a few days ago. That bitch from the countryside dared to openly seduce her fiancé. She was really shameless. If her mother didn't let her go to trouble with that bitch, she would definitely not let her She had a good time.

Nangong Bo was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared, "Miss Six has worked so hard to cook this table of meals, how can she be ineligible? Prime Minister Gan, what do you think?"

"Yes, Fu'er has worked really hard, Steward Zhao, go and invite Miss Six to come over!" Gan Lu saw that the second prince was a little displeased, so he immediately waved to the housekeeper behind him.The queen mother liked the dim sum made by Ganfu last time. I heard that her appetite has increased greatly in the past few days. The second prince came today to get the dim sum. He should have thought of this from the beginning.

Gan Wei refused to accept and wanted to say something, but the lady sitting next to her pulled her sleeves, so she lowered her head reluctantly.

But within the time of a cup of tea, Gan Fu came in all plain clothes, her face still covered with a veil, entered the dining room, and immediately knelt down to pay homage, "Your servant sees the second prince!"

"Get up!" Nan Gongbo realized that every time he saw this little girl, he would have a different feeling. Although her clothes were not gorgeous, they gave off a fresh and charming aura of watery lotus, but why did she wear a veil today? Woolen cloth?Although he wanted to ask the reason, he also knew that it was not allowed to probe into a girl's private affairs on such an occasion.

"Thank you, Second Prince!" Gan Fu stood up slowly, and stood on the spot with her head slightly lowered.

"Liu girl, come here and serve the second prince!" Mrs. Gan reminded Gan Fu when she saw that Gan Fu was standing there still.

"Yes!" Gan Fu came to the second prince on lotus steps, with white hands, slender and slender, picked up a small bowl next to Nangong Bo, scooped two spoonfuls of soup in an earthen pot, and handed it to Nan Gongbo, "Second Prince, this is old duck soup with sour bamboo shoots. The sour bamboo shoots are marinated with fresh winter bamboo shoots. The old duck is wild duck that has been raised for three years. This dish is the most appetizing and refreshing!"

Nangong Bo took a sip, and a gleam of light appeared in his eyes, "Sure enough, it is sour and refreshing. After just taking a sip, I feel that my appetite has greatly increased!" He can definitely dedicate this dish to the Queen Mother.

"This pumpkin was just bought from a farmer in the afternoon. It has not undergone any processing. It is just cut and steamed in a cage to preserve the fragrance and nutrition of the pumpkin to the maximum extent! Pumpkin is good for the stomach and spleen, and is most suitable for the elderly !" Gan Fu smiled slightly, she did not just grab Nangong Bo's stomach by cooking this table, she wanted to get close to the Queen Mother through Nangong Bo.

Nangong Bo picked up the pumpkin and put it in his mouth, his eyes immediately flashed a light, "That's right, it's sweet, soft and smooth, it melts in your mouth, it turns out that pumpkin can be so delicious!"

"This is a sweet potato, just like a pumpkin. It's just steamed in a cage!" Ganfu took another piece of sweet potato and put it in Nangong Bo's bowl. Don't eat too much, especially the elderly and children, if you eat too much, you will accumulate food!"

Seeing that Nangong Bo kept praising Gan Fu, Gan Wei felt unhappy, so she kept moving her chopsticks, "People from the countryside just don't know much, and thought you could cook some delicious food, but they are all coarse food, brother Bo, you But the dignified prince, how can he eat such vulgar food, if you don't like it, don't force yourself!"
