Chapter 7: Rats in the Soup
With that, Forsythia turned and walked out.
The surroundings suddenly fell silent, and the corners of Huo Lingxi's lips hooked up a sneer.
Forsythia passed the news to her mother-in-law, she naturally knew, so she deliberately put a mouse on the boat today, and also deliberately let Forsythia fall into the water, using the rope that had been prepared for a long time to save her.
If Forsythia is grateful, he will definitely tell the truth.
If you are still wolf-hearted, you will naturally keep your mouth shut.
This one, she won the bet!
When she first arrived at the Huo family, what she lacked most now was her henchmen, and Forsythia was a suitable candidate in all respects.
But as for whether he is truly true to himself, it remains to be tested in the future.
Thinking of this, Huo Lingxi's throat itched, and he coughed again.
I heard that the original owner of this body is arrogant and domineering, but why is it so weak that he has been hanging in a medicine jar these days, and it is essential to drink medicine every day to get rid of a sick seedling.
Her martial arts skills were not low during her lifetime, and her strength was also very great, and many fierce generals from enemy countries were planted in her hands, but now?
Not to mention killing the enemy, even if it is a chicken killing knife, I'm afraid I won't have the strength to lift it!
At this time, there was a knock on the door in the wing, and before Huo Lingxi answered the door, Mrs. Yi and Mrs. Yi walked in, glanced at Huo Lingxi, and said with a smile: "We are all busy with our heels and can't touch the ground, Miss Huo is here to enjoy the blessings, the kitchen is making white lotus soup and needs manpower, can you bother Miss Huo to condescend to the nobles?" ”
Is it just to get started?
The work to be done today is inevitably much more leisurely than before, just releasing rats and helping out in the kitchen?
Huo Ling's eyes were dyed with a strange light, and Yihe was uncomfortable with her gaze, so he snorted and turned to leave.
At the beginning, Mrs. Jinghui received a letter from the old lady of the Huo family, hoping to hone Huo Lingxi more, and try to let Huo Lingxi do the work that the masters usually do, and experience the hardships of the people.
And this errand fell into the hands of Yihe, who let her work every day.
Although it was only done for two or three hours, it was the dirtiest and worst job in the entire Jiyun Nunnery.
As soon as I heard that it was the young lady who made a mistake again, she would naturally be looked down upon, but after all, the young lady was a young lady, and it was a golden branch and jade leaf, but Yihe didn't care about this at all, so there was only one possibility, there must be her mother-in-law's instructions behind this matter.
Just imagine, if the old lady of the Huo family received the news from Mrs. Jinghui that she was arrogant and didn't work, I am afraid that she would not take Huo Lingxi back.
Presumably, Huo Lingxi fell into the water and suffered from the cold, and it was inseparable from this Yihe, but this time, what did Yihe do?
——
The vegetarian feast of Jiyun Nunnery is famous, most of them are from the hands of Jinghui Shitai, and Jinghui Shitai has a period of time every year to go to the palace regularly to do this vegetarian food, and other dignitaries want to taste this craft, they can only come to Jiyun Nunnery in person from thousands of miles away.
The spacious living room is separated by delicate gold gauze curtains, with women on one side and men on the other.
The little nun in charge of vegetarian food first rinsed the white jade porcelain cup with boiling water, and then poured the special bathing water into the cup.
The bathing Buddha water of Jiyun Nunnery is fried with 36 special spices, the water vapor is swirling, the aroma is tangy, the wife of the uncle and the wife of the prime minister took the lead in picking up the cup and taking a sip, the rest of the people dare to follow and pick up the cup, for a while, the sweet taste lingers at the root of the tongue, lighter than the wine, stronger than the tea, this bath Buddha water really lives up to expectations.
Master Jinghui was too kind and kind-eyed, standing aside and explaining the Buddha's path to everyone.
Immediately afterwards, the little nuns presented the vegetarian food to them one by one.
Perfume black cake, black rice, this is just as a dessert, Song Quanquan looked at it intently, these dishes are more fragrant than the dishes in the best restaurants in the capital, and most importantly, they are all vegetarian dishes.
Vegetarian dishes are the most test of the skills of the cook, the meat dishes are good, the vegetarian dishes are difficult, if you are not careful, you will be compared with the meat dishes, but these from Jiyun Nunnery are wonderful, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the best dishes.
"Gluttonous girl, eat leisurely, the highlight hasn't come up yet!"
Song Hanjue couldn't help but joke when he saw Song Quanquan's appearance.
"That's right, the most famous thing in Jiyun Nunnery is the 'Three Springs and One Lotus', fried spring rolls, scalded spring buds, roasted spring mushrooms, and the white lotus soup made from the white lotus in the lotus pond on the top of Baiyun Peak, which can be described as simple and elegant, and the taste is wonderful!"
Zhou Shuheng folded the fan in his hand, and smiled through the curtain to answer for Song Quanquan.
"Wednesday Gongzi is really knowledgeable, and then please really want to go to these three springs and one lotus!" After Mrs. Jinghui finished speaking, she smiled and said to the little nun next to her, "Send it up!" ”
After a while, more than a dozen little nuns presented Sanchun one after another, and then four little nuns walked out with two white jade containers carried by fine nanmu, which were sealed and placed in the middle of the table.
The men's seat was opened first, and everyone tasted it and said with a smile, "It's really wonderful!" ”
The little nun hurriedly opened the women's seat, filled the first bowl and handed it to Mrs. Guo, who smiled and tasted it, and when the little nun served the second bowl, she suddenly exclaimed, and the fine white jade spoon fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Master Jing Hui was taken aback, and hurriedly went to look, and saw a dead mouse floating on the white lotus soup. The rat flipped its bulging belly, its four furry paws raised, and its eyes widened, looking disgusting and terrifying.
When Mrs. Guo, who drank the first sip, saw this picture, she fainted in fright on the spot, and the maid and grandmother exclaimed in surprise to help.
The scene suddenly became chaotic, and the two sons of the Zhou family and Song Hanjue also opened the curtain and walked quickly, and they were also stunned when they saw the dead mouse.
Song Quanquan and Song Hanjue hurriedly went to help their fainted mother-in-law, Song Quanquan looked down at the soup in the bowl, and only felt his stomach rolling.
Prime Minister's wife Li Shuhan slapped the table, "Mrs. Jinghui, what's going on?" ”
"This ......," Master Jinghui's face turned pale.
If something like this happens to her vegetarian feast, I'm afraid her reputation in this life will be ruined!
But now the reputation is no longer important, and if the important thing offends the uncle and wife, she is afraid that this Jiyun Nunnery will be finished!
At this time, Yihe walked in, saw the dead mouse, suppressed the sneer in his heart, and pretended to be surprised, "How can this be?" This...... I just said a few heavy words about Miss Huo, she actually did such a cruel thing! ”
"Fifth Miss of the Huo Family? Huo Lingxi! Li was taken aback, "What does it have to do with her?" ”
