It's just that Hongyu didn't find out who Chun'er saw after inquiring, but she only knew that she had been to the Guogong Mansion twice in the past few days, and she thought that the person who came was someone from the Guogong Mansion, which confirmed her previous conjecture.

It just so happened that Song Lanzhi's birthday had arrived, and Yao Keqing had taken her post and wanted to congratulate her on her birthday, so she could go to the Guogong Mansion to find out in person.

Song Lanzhi's birthday is two days before Duanyang, and Song Lanzhi will get married in the second half of the year, so this birthday is not a big deal, only the concubines and sisters who are close to the family get together together. So there is no need to send too many expensive birthday gifts, because Song Lanzhi liked to eat pine and chicken fat rolls made of blue jade when she came over a few times ago, Yao Keqing ordered Lan Yu to make a plate and bring it over, and picked a silk fan with tortoiseshell as a handle and packed it as a congratulatory gift.

Song Lanzhi really liked Yao Keqing's congratulatory gift when she received it, "It's still the fourth sister-in-law who knows me best, and she knows that I like to eat this and specially made me a plate!" I can't forget the taste of this chanterelle roll after I ate it once, and I wanted to ask the fourth sister-in-law to ask this girl who made chanterelle rolls, but I really didn't have the face to open this mouth! ”

The second young grandmother, Lin Shiying, said with a smile, "Don't just stare at the food, I see that this fan is more delicate, not like the ones we bought outside!" ”

Song Lanzhi picked up the fan and looked at it, and couldn't put it down, holding it in her hand and looking at it over and over again, "Last year's fan was old, and this year I haven't made a new one, so my fourth sister-in-law sent me a new one, I like this fan very much, and even the pattern is my favorite butterfly love flower style!" ”

Lin said, "The fourth brother and sister are the most understanding, and the two things sent to the fifth sister's heart!" We should really learn from our four siblings, sister-in-law, don't you say? ”

Lin's words seemed to have something in his words, as if he was coming at himself, Yao Keqing's heart suddenly suddenly, and he couldn't help but think of the matter of Xian Xian, no matter how she messed with the second young master, they were also husband and wife, in the end, they couldn't allow others to do anything to the second young master, and they instigated Xian Xian to go to the old lady to complain, so that the second young master was beaten badly, losing face, and her face was dull, so she hated herself, but Song Zike's intentions were wrong, and he was to blame for doing so, she wanted to hold a grudge, so she would hold a grudge!

Du Shi, the young grandmother who had been silent, listened to Lin's words as if she hadn't heard them, she still didn't say anything, and ate tea silently with a teacup in a muffled voice, Lin was bored with herself, and turned around to talk to the sixth miss Song Lanxin and the seventh miss Song Lanzhu.

Song Lanzhi pursed her lips and pulled Yao Keqing to sit away from the Lin family, "The second brother was beaten by his grandmother, and the second sister-in-law was also reprimanded by her grandmother, so she was not happy!" The fourth sister-in-law cares! ”

The Zhan family was also suspicious of the fake, so Yao Keqing was more or less wary of Song Lanzhi when he faced him, and he was not as careless about Song Lanzhi's closeness as before.

Song Lanzhi distributed the pine and chicken fat rolls to everyone present to eat, and after Du Shi ate a piece, Mu Ne's expression finally changed a little, and he took the initiative to speak to Yao Keqing for the first time, "If it is convenient for the fourth brother and sister, can you copy the recipe to me?" At the end, he said, "If it's inconvenient, it's okay, the four brothers and sisters don't have to take it to heart!" ”

Yao Keqing thought that Du Shi wanted to go back and make it for Brother Fu to eat, so he smiled and said, "What's inconvenient about this, I'll send it to my sister-in-law when I turn around!" Hongyu, you go back now, and let Lanyu copy the recipe and bring it over! ”

Hongyu answered, Du Shi thanked him softly, his face finally brought some light, everyone talked together and occasionally interjected a sentence or two, and after getting the pastry recipe, a gentle smile appeared on his face, which was fleeting.

Today on Song Lanzhi's birthday, the Zhan family prepared roasted mutton with ingenuity and invited everyone to stay and eat together, Yao Keqing excused himself but also stayed, but he didn't expect Song Lanxiang to come uninvited.

Song Lanzhi still remembered the painting last time, and said in a stern tone, "What are you doing here?" I didn't invite you today!! ”

Song Lanxiang snorted, completely ignoring Song Lanzhi's dissatisfaction, and retorted, "Who asked you to invite, I won't come after you invite me!" I'm not here to congratulate you on your birthday, don't be self-righteous here! ”

Song Lanzhi stomped her feet angrily, and couldn't wait to get her out of the territory of the fourth room, Zhan didn't like Song Lanxiang either, but she didn't put her dislike on her face directly like Song Lanzhi, but her tone of voice to Song Lanxiang was very cold, "Is there something wrong with the third lady?" ”

Song Lanxiang was fine, but Song Lanzhi invited a large family on her birthday, but she was not invited! Why didn't you invite her? Song Lanxiang couldn't get angry, so she came over to find fault with Song Lanzhi's mold, but she didn't expect Zhan to be there, in front of the elders, she had to rest, and was asked by Zhan about the purpose of coming. ”

Du Shi was slightly flustered, but still asked without the slightest emotion, "Is there anything wrong with the third lady looking for me?" ”

Since she had already lied, Song Lanxiang continued to lie calmly, "Brother Fu is crying and looking for your sister-in-law!" Sister-in-law, hurry up and go back and have a look! ”

Du Shi panicked, and hurriedly got up to say goodbye to Zhan's blessing body.

Song Lanzhi saw through Song Lanxiang's lies and muttered, "Full of nonsense!" It's also the sister-in-law who really believes her words! ”

Song Lanxiang generously sat in the vacated position after Du Shi left, the second young grandmother was used to seeing the temperament of no one in her eyes, and she was not surprised at all, Yao Keqing was so self-contained, even though she was disdainful in her heart, her face was never revealed, but Song Lanzhi couldn't help it, and kept glaring at her fiercely, but she was ignored by Song Lanxiang.

Song Lanxiang stayed, everyone was a little uncomfortable, and the fresh roasted mutton felt that it didn't taste good in the mouth, Zhan saw that Yao Keqing didn't touch the mutton, and couldn't help asking, "Doesn't this mutton suit your appetite?" ”

Yao Keqing smiled apologetically, "Recently, I have been taking medicine to nourish my body, and I have been fighting with mutton, and I can't eat it, and I have disappointed my aunt's good intentions!" ”

Speaking of medicine, Zhou thought that he was also taking medicine, although he did not fight with mutton, he still unconsciously stopped touching mutton.

Zhan Shi blamed himself slightly, "Why didn't you say earlier, the kitchen stewed Longjing bamboo sun, and the goose paw was bad, I will let them send it!" ”

The dishes were delivered, the girls took another bowl and distributed the soup to everyone, Zhan personally handed a bowl to Yao Keqing, "Sister Zhi often says that there is a maid with excellent cooking skills next to you, and the pastries and dishes she makes are all unique, and she is used to eating what she makes, and I don't know if what I make in the small kitchen here is not suitable for your appetite, you can try it!" ”

The elders personally distributed the dishes, Yao Keqing took it busily and humbly, tasted it according to his words, and praised, "This soup has both the fragrance of Longjing and the deliciousness of Zhusun, it seems to be light, but the entrance is very pure, it must have been stewed for a long time!" ”

Zhan Shi smiled, "Sure enough, I asked your maid to raise the taste, and when I taste it, I know that it has been stewed for a long time!" This soup has been stewed since the morning, but don't waste it, you have to drink it! ”

Everyone picked up the spoon when they heard this, Yao Keqing casually glanced at the Lin family next to him, and found that her spoon seemed to be a little different from his own, and the spoon that was about to reach his mouth was put down again!
