The lady in charge turned to leave, and soon came back, holding a soup cup in her hand, and the faint aroma wafted over, attracting everyone's attention.

Wei Guifei couldn't help but smile when she saw everyone's eyes, "This soup has been drunk in this palace for more than ten years, and I have to take a cup every day. ”

Everyone hurriedly said, "Don't dare," Mrs. Zuo smiled, and said: "The concubine Niangniang said that she laughed, where did the courtiers dare to have that kind of thought, and the courtiers often drink some soup to maintain their appearance at home, but they ......"

Her tone changed, and she looked at Wei Guifei, with an envious look on her face, "No matter how you can't compare with you, Niangniang is like the light of the sun and the moon, how can I compare with the light of this glow." ”

Rong Xi lowered his eyelids and smiled secretly in his heart, this Mrs. Zuo really didn't spare any effort to seize the opportunity to pat her ass.

The lady in charge put down the soup cup in her hand, and said while serving soup to Wei Guifei: "The female master in which house will have one or two ways to maintain her appearance, and she really has its own merits, and you can also know a thing or two by looking at the complexion of the ladies and ladies, but our mother's mother is not for maintaining her appearance, and her mother has never paid attention to those appearances. ”

The smile on Mrs. Zuo's face showed a slight embarrassment, and she cleared her throat and said, "It's the courtiers who are abrupt." ”

Wei Guifei took a sip of the soup, her smile was still faint, "It's okay." ”

Rong Xi watched coldly, from an objective point of view, she didn't think there was anything wrong with what Mrs. Zuo said, the women here rely on drinking soup for maintenance and modern women go to the beauty salon for maintenance is actually the same, where would any woman hide her going to the beauty salon?

On the contrary, she felt that there was something wrong with the defense of the mother-in-charge.

Rong Xi raised his nose and sniffed, and noticed that there seemed to be a faint sour taste in the aroma of the soup.

The atmosphere was somewhat depressing, and at this time, two little palace maids came, each holding a tray in their hands, and inside was a soup pot, and the rich aroma wafted away, and soon floated to the tip of everyone's noses.

The lady in charge smiled again, "Ladies and misses, this is what the mother ordered to prepare for everyone, and it was boiled last night, and please taste it carefully." ”

Everyone hurriedly thanked each other, and the little palace maid put the soup pot and divided it into a small bowl, and sure enough, she saw that the soup was milky white and the aroma was stronger.

Mrs. Zuo took a sip, and her eyes immediately lit up, "This boy's chicken soup is simply so fragrant, the meat is delicate and tender, so that people almost swallow their tongues." ”

Zuo Qinglian also nodded in praise, and from time to time glanced at Cai Ya, who was silent on the side, Cai Ya was a little embarrassed, she didn't taste what kind of chicken soup this was.

Rong Xi looked at the soup, she couldn't help but admire Mrs. Zuo, and after only eating a bite of meat, she couldn't wait to start admiring, this ...... Is it really chicken soup?

Rong Bingjin smiled lightly, put down the spoon in her hand, and pressed her mouth with a handkerchief, she had the same idea as Rong Xi's, this is not chicken soup at all, but pigeon soup, and the ingredients for boiling the soup are all good ingredients and medicinal materials, plus the pigeon breeding must be different from the general, so these factors lead to the soup to be rich, but it covers the unique taste of pigeon meat.

This Mrs. Zuo only felt that the meat was delicate, and she felt that she was an underage chicken.

Rong Xi was keenly aware of the smile on Rong Bingjin's face, and she felt more and more that this girl had an appetite for her.

Sure enough, the lady in charge smiled and said, "Niangniang, it seems that you want to reward the cook in the small kitchen as you said before." ”

"This cook's cooking skills are extraordinary, and they really deserve to be commended." Mrs. Zuo smiled, her smile was like a spring flower, and she showed a bit of style.

The lady in charge looked at her smile, and suddenly felt a little irritable in her heart, and turned her eyes to the thick soup, and said: "Madame doesn't know, this soup is not a chicken soup, but a pigeon soup, this pigeon is raised in the palace, usually raised by a special person, and fed with fresh and precious ingredients, so the meat quality is also different from the general pigeon, the cook after more than half a year of continuous trying to ponder, this is the use of various ingredients to make this soup without pigeon flavor." ”

The smile on Mrs. Zuo's face suddenly froze there, as if the spring flower suddenly encountered a cold snap and was frozen there, stiff and dry, and the "click" seemed to fall out of the powder.

Zuo Qinglian's expression was not much better, and she could still see the smug smile on Cai Ya's face out of the corner of her eyes, as if she was laughing at their mother and daughter for not only being ignorant, but also talking about this ignorance, which was embarrassing.

Rong Xi only felt a little tired, watching these women fighting openly and secretly, it was okay for a while, but after a long time, she was tired for them, she stood up and said: "Mother, my daughter-in-law feels a little tired, everyone has used the soup, and after talking for a long time, it must be full, it is better to withdraw this seat, let them continue to chat, when they have talked enough, they will come back to call their daughter-in-law and discuss the matter of the candidate for Dabi." ”

As soon as she said this, the faces of Mrs. Zuo's mother and daughter became a little more ugly, and there were many words from them during this banquet, but Wei Guifei had heard and seen Rong Xi's temperament before, and she didn't want to listen to those flattering words anymore, so she nodded and said: "It's okay, if you are pregnant, you are naturally more tired than ordinary people, so let's have a good rest." ”

After that, he said to the mother in charge: "Take good care of Princess Ning, be careful and thoughtful." ”

"Yes."

Rong Xi followed the lady in charge to the palace, there were many rooms in the palace, this time it was Wei Guifei's order, naturally she couldn't pick a small room like before, but was led by the lady in charge to the place that had been prepared before.

was walking, and suddenly saw a woman in palace clothes walking by, holding a soup pot in her hand, which seemed to contain some ingredients, she hung her head, and she couldn't see her face clearly, her clothes and hair accessories were very ordinary, such a woman was too common in the palace.

But what attracted Rong Xi the most was her hands.

Her fingers are not slender and exquisite, and her nails are naturally smooth and not long, and the others are no different from ordinary palace women, only the skin on her hands is white and delicate like mutton fat, which is completely different from the skin color on her face.

Rong Xi was slightly surprised in her heart, in her impression, when this happens, it is usually the woman who has been in contact with her hands for a long time, such as those modern advertising videos, saying that the skin of those women who often wash pearls is different from other parts around her, etc.

So, this palace maid...... What does she often touch with her hands?

"Wandering around what?" When the lady in charge saw the woman, she said with some displeasure: "Don't you know that there are distinguished guests in the palace today?" Still messing around here! ”

"The slave doesn't dare," the woman hurriedly saluted, "but these things ......"

"Take it down!" When the lady in charge saw that this palace maid didn't understand her eyes so much, not only did she not leave quickly, but she also came to the front of her, and immediately said with three points of anger: "Take those things in your kitchen and show them in front of your guests, what does it look like!" ”

“…… Be. The maid hurriedly turned and left.

Seeing the woman walking away, the lady in charge seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, turned to Rong Xi and saluted, and said apologetically: "The princess smiled, this cook is working in the kitchen all day long, and she is not very familiar with some rules, if she collides with the princess, wait for the old slave to return to the mother......"

"It's okay," Rong Xi interrupted her lightly, and said casually: "It's not a big deal, this princess is not so delicate, there is nothing to bump into or not, doesn't it mean that she is hot and hot?" The mother concubine is used to drinking, don't bother the mother concubine for these little things. ”

The lady in charge immediately said: "Yes, the princess's filial piety to the concubine can be expressed, and the old slave should follow the princess's words." ”

Rong Xi didn't answer again, and as she entered the room, this room was really more gorgeous than the previous one, painted with screens of the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, thin screen veil, delicate and realistic scenery, almost making people think that the beauty of the four seasons was really presented in front of them at this moment.

The tables and chairs of pineapple wood are spotlessly clean, and there is a unique sense of luster light of ancient wood, the shape is atmospheric, the carving is meticulous, and there are exquisite embroidery pillows on the beauty couch.

Nothing is ordinary, and it can be seen that it took a lot of effort.

Rong Xi doesn't love money, but at this moment, he is also thinking that if he has the opportunity to travel back to modern times in the future and can bring back one or two things, then he will not have to worry about money for food and clothing research in his life.

"Princess, please rest here, the old slave ordered someone to stay in the outhouse, if there is any need, you can call at any time." The lady in charge said.

"No need," Rong Xi waved his hand, "It's just a moment of rest, there are not so many people, there are still many guests outside, send them there, this princess is enough to have filial piety here." ”

"This ......" the lady in charge hesitated.

Xiao'er came over and said with a smile: "Mama, don't worry, our princess is easy to talk to, you should send your sisters outside, those are all distinguished guests, our princess is her own family, and besides, the slave and maid are here, it will be fine." ”

"That'...... Okay," the lady in charge could only give up when she heard this, "the old slave retired first. ”

"Miss, what do you command?" Xiao'er watched the lady in charge go out, her eyes flashed, revealing a sly smile.

"You ghost girl," Rong Xi smiled, "go and sue Sù Leng Fifteen, let him go to the kitchen and have a look, especially ......"

"The cook?" Xiao'er gave a salute, "The slave and maid will go." ”

Rong Xi sat on the beauty couch, watched Xiao'er walk to the back window, took out a peculiar whistle from his arms, put it in his mouth and blew it softly.

The whistle is like a bird's call, almost inaudible to the real or false, the wind is slight, and suddenly the wind is slightly strong, and a figure appears in the window, hanging upside down, smiling at Xiao'er who pushed the window open.
