Chapter 14: Cooking skills
In other words, she has always been very clear about Hongxiang's personality, and she has no memory loss at all......
Xi Yao's face was so indifferent that she couldn't be more indifferent, but the hand holding the cup in her sleeve was squeezed tightly.
It was Red Candle who confessed to her just now, and now it's her turn.
She's gambling, betting that Red Candle is a loyal servant who is desperate, and betting that Red Candle won't reveal the secret of her fake amnesia.
This is also a helpless way, in the face of the undercover agent planted by the Wang family, Xi Yao must quickly cultivate another henchman by his side, so as not to be isolated. Maybe she can not say anything about the fake amnesia, but Xi Yao herself doesn't dare to guarantee that something unexpected will happen in the future, and if Red Candle knows about it, she will be by her side to support.
Of course, although there is Bai Moyang's help, but what happens in the Cuizhu Garden is sometimes beyond Bai Moyang's reach, the two of them have their own tasks when they come to the mortal world, Xi Yao is responsible for some of the work of the Wang family in the mansion, and Bai Moyang is mainly responsible for the arrangement of the court, and Gu Xia can only be here after time.
Therefore, Xi Yao urgently needs an assistant who understands her situation, and in the short term, Red Candle is the best candidate.
Red Candle's eyes widened, Miss told her this, but she trusted her incomparably.
She always thought that Miss was just an ordinary girl, Red Candle blamed herself in her heart, originally she thought that Miss didn't care about herself, so she simply said that Miss had her own ideas, so she didn't say it. But I didn't expect that Miss had always looked at Yiqiฤ in her eyes.
Hot tears rolled in his eyes, and at this moment, the room fell silent again, and the red candle no longer spoke, but looked at Xi Yao and smiled. That smile was bright and profound, and people didn't dare to forget it.
When Hongxiang came back, the room was as usual, the red candles were still silently wiping all kinds of furnishings, but Xi Yao was holding a book and looking at it.
Looking at the appearance, Hongxiang didn't notice anything, just thinking about the words that the Wang clan had just ordered just now, but she didn't know that a qiฤ had begun to transform silently.
The next day, early in the morning, Xi Yao had just gotten up and dressed, when she heard a sound outside the door, and looked back to see that it was her aunt Gao.
"Ying'er, are you alright?"
"Auntie, why did you come so early? Don't tell Sรน Ying'er early, Ying'er is good to go to the gate of the mansion to greet you......" In front of the Gao family, Xi Yao pretended to be extremely well-behaved.
Seeing Xi Yao's flexible hands and feet, Gao's eyes were full of tears with excitement for a while, "It's just a few steps, where is my aunt willing to let you go?" Last night I thought, you wake up and want to buy you a few new clothes, this morning I was going to have breakfast and come back, but my aunt can't wait, just got up and rushed over, bumpy all the way I was hungry, breakfast in the kitchen can be delivered? โ
Holding Gao's hand, Xi Yao also smiled from ear to ear, "Hongxiang, go and order the kitchen to come over, Red Candle, you take this sister down to eat, my aunt and I can be here, you don't have to serve......"
Gao nodded with satisfaction, this niece is always very compatible with her.
Although she is already Mrs. Shangshu, the Gao family is still very unaccustomed to being served by others, at least they still insist on the habit of eating by themselves when eating, and they also look down on the pretentious tiptoeing appearance of those noble ladies, "Yes, Ying'er is right, you all go down to eat, don't spare our mother and daughter reunion......"
A bowl of delicate rice balls was served on the table, followed by deep-fried pastry and long-accumulated pickles......
Gao couldn't help frowning when he looked at it, and the chopsticks he lifted fell involuntarily, "How can breakfast be matched like this?" Are the moms in the kitchen all fed for nothing? โ
The glutinous rice balls are already slippery, which is caused by milling rice, and with fried things, eating them will be a great burden on the stomach, and it is most beneficial to pair them with clear soup. But the kitchen sent such a diet that people didn't want to swallow when they saw it, and Gao Shi frowned when he saw it.
"Auntie, Ying'er is used to eating, I will eat whatever I send over there, if it doesn't suit my aunt's appetite, Ying'er will let the kitchen change again, don't be angry, so as not to hurt your body."
Putting down the chopsticks, Gao Shi was not even in the mood to eat, but his stomach was still grumbling with hunger, Xi Yao looked at it in his eyes, and suddenly thought, "Why don't you go to the kitchen and prepare a few dishes for your aunt?" Let you also taste Ying'er's craftsmanship? โ
His eyes lit up, and Gao was overjoyed, "Ying'er is also good at cooking?" โ
"Okay, my aunt will know later, just don't dislike Ying'er for being stupid and refuse to eat."
"You just have to go, whatever you do and come back, my aunt will eat it all......"
Came to the kitchen, after distributing food to each courtyard, the only thing left here was the ingredients, and the mothers were busy cleaning up the mess, and when they heard that the eldest lady wanted to borrow the kitchen, they didn't dare to say anything, so they all withdrew after a while.
As a thorn in the side of the mother of the back house, Xi Yao's every move is no secret, so when she brought out the tray from the kitchen with a red candle, the Wang family must have known what happened early in the morning.
I'm not afraid of any movement over there, Xi Yao is just tired of eating breakfast here, and as a senior foodie, she occasionally wants to improve her food.
In the Cuizhu Garden, Gao's stomach was already rumbling to the sky, and he smelled a fragrance from a distance, only to see the red candle come in with a tray full of things, and as soon as the curtain was opened, a fresh breath came to his face.
Xi Yao smiled and personally brought the radish pork rib soup, peanut yam and barley porridge and mixed cold vegetables on the tray to Gao's face, "Auntie, you can taste it......" Her eyes were full of expectation.
Not to mention anything else, Xi Yao has always been very confident in her cooking skills.
Gao swallowed his saliva, and began to move his chopsticks, first took a bite of small cold vegetables, which were refreshing and crispy, and looked down to see that there were only cucumbers and celery, but the entrance was very fragrant, and then took a sip of barley porridge, only to feel that the esophagus that had just been opened by small cold vegetables was instantly covered with warmth, and it felt more than just a stomach, "Ying'er is a good cook...... Why didn't my aunt know before? โ
Putting the radish pork rib soup into a small bowl, Xi Yao hooked her lips and smiled, "The so-called masters are all deeply hidden, auntie, you can try the radish pork rib soup...... Knowing that her aunt had a cough disease, she would definitely not feel good in this summer, so Ying'er stewed radish pork ribs soup, which did not have many ribs, and it was light and easy to digest, and it was the most beneficial to dissolve dampness and phlegm. โ
After the hot soup was served, Gao's appetite was great, and he nodded with satisfaction and began to eat.
Xi Yao also sat down quietly on the side and began to enjoy, the harmonious atmosphere between relatives is probably like this, right?
"I heard that my aunt is here, and there is something delicious ......" A clear voice floated outside the window, and a figure in an indigo robe strode in.
As soon as he saw Bai Moyang coming in, Xi Yao's face was suddenly covered with black lines.
