"Sister Xiaoju, can you often come to play with us in the future?" Gu Siniang smiled sweetly, and her voice was soft. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Xiao Ju smiled at her when she heard this, "Yes, Sister Xiao Ju has nothing to do recently, so does Siniang welcome me?" ”

Gu Siniang naturally nodded, "Welcome, of course welcome." ”

Xiao Ju quietly looked at the three Chen mother and daughter, and was relieved to see that none of them doubted their words.

Last night, Yuan called her into the house, gave her an errand, and went to serve Chen's mother and daughter in the following days, saying that they were serving, but they were not allowed to know that Yuan arranged it.

Xiao Ju was confused when she heard this, she originally thought that she had done something wrong and angered the Yuan family, so she was driven out of the main courtyard, but in the end, the promise that Yuan gave her made her happy, as long as she did this well, the big girl in the main courtyard would be hers.

After breakfast, Chen saw that the hour was almost up, and he was about to go to the embroidery room, but as soon as he walked to the door, he saw Du's mother coming over with two maids.

"Gu Niangzi, it's early." Mother Du's face was full of smiles, and she blessed Chen's body slightly, "Did you sleep well last night?" ”

Chen was confused by Du's mother's sudden enthusiasm, but he still smiled politely, "Laodu's mother cares and sleeps well." Is there something wrong with you coming here so early? ”

Mother Du smiled and said, "That's the case, Madame wants to embroider a statue of Guanyin to hang in the Buddha hall for worship." Mrs. Gu Niangzi's craftsmanship is very fond of it, so she has to ask Gu Niangzi for help in this matter. ”

After hearing this, Chen didn't agree immediately, and looked a little embarrassed, "This ......"

"But what's the difficulty?" Seeing this, Du's mother hurriedly asked.

"I don't know when Madame needs it, if it's not urgent, I'll embroider it for you and send it to the house after the year." Chen estimated the time in her heart, it would take at least ten days to embroider a statue of Guanyin, and she would go to the embroidery room during the day, if it was too late before the year.

"Madame invited someone to see it, this Buddha statue will be hung up before the year before it is auspicious." Du's mother said.

Chen was a little embarrassed, "Then this will be difficult, I still have to go to the embroidery room during the day, and I only have time at night." I'm afraid it's really too late. ”

Gu's mother smiled when she heard this, "I should be so embarrassed about something, it turned out to be this." ”

Facing Chen's puzzled gaze, Du's mother continued, "It's also to blame me for coming over in a hurry and forgetting to say it." I have already arranged for someone to replace me in the embroidery room early in the morning, and Gu Niangzi will concentrate on embroidering Buddha statues during this time. ”

Hearing this, Chen nodded, "Since this is the case, then the time must be in time." After speaking, he followed Du's mother directly to Yuan's yard.

In the house, Gu Siniang was sitting in a daze, Sanniang had already climbed into bed to go back to sleep, Xiao Ju took a piece of jujube cake and handed it over, "What are Siniang thinking?" ”

Gu Siniang came back to her senses, took the pastry, and smiled, "I'm thinking about what to eat at noon." ”

"I don't see it, Siniang is still a little gluttonous cat." Xiao Ju quipped, and then asked, "Wait for me to go to the kitchen and see, do you have anything you want to eat?" ”

Gu Siniang took a bite of the jujube paste cake in her hand, "By the way, Sister Xiaoju, can you write?" ”

Xiao Ju was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect her to ask this, and then replied, "I know a few words." ”

Gu Siniang looked surprised, "That's really good." Can you please ask Sister Xiaoju to help me find some pen and paper? ”

"What does Siniang want pen and paper for, do you want to write?" Xiao Ju wondered.

Gu Siniang nodded and explained, "I'm going to ask Sister Xiaoju to help me write a few dishes for how to make them, and I'll hand them over to Aunt Bai and Aunt Hei in the kitchen later." I promised them yesterday that I would be teaching them how to make a few dishes these days. ”

Although she has some selfish intentions that she can follow, in the final analysis, she still serves the big young master of the Wu family, so when it comes to troublesome the maid of the Wu family in this matter, Gu Siniang said that she still has no burden in her heart.

Xiao Ju was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and was a little incredulous, "Siniang, are you saying that you teach White Mother and Black Mother to cook?" ”

Gu Siniang nodded seriously, "I also knew about it by chance, it's not a rare method." She really didn't lie, thousands of years later, in the era of the developed Internet, this kind of recipe was searched on a certain mother, and it was everywhere.

She said this, but Xiao Ju obviously didn't think so, the Bai family and the Hei family were the cooks invited by the Wu family from Kyoto at a great price, and I heard that these two people used to work in the Hou Mansion, and their skills were naturally not the same.

If it was an ordinary way, how could they be able to see it.

"I'm going to get a pen and paper, Siniang, you wait." After Xiao Ju finished speaking, she quickly turned around and left.

Gu Siniang carefully recalled the dishes she wanted to eat recently in her mind, if she talked about Sichuan food, the first thing she thought of was boiled fish.

I don't know who once said that boiled fish is a must-have dish for women who have crossed the country, and it is the only dish that is simple to make and can show its otherworldly wisdom.

Gu Siniang thought about it and thought this theory was interesting, so she would eat boiled fish today.

Not long after Xiao Ju went, she came back with a complete set of pen, ink, paper, and inkstones, and placed the paper and pen on the table, waiting for Gu Siniang's orders.

"This dish is called boiled fish, which belongs to the flavor of the northern part of Chongqing, and the main raw material is live fish, which is characterized by smooth and tender taste, oily but not greasy, spicy but not dry, numb but not bitter." Her voice still has the unique softness of a child, but the words are extremely clear, the thinking is clear, and the unique gentle tone makes people ignore that she is still a child for a while.

Xiao Ju glanced at her deeply, didn't say anything, lowered her head and recorded what she said.

In the next time, Gu Siniang told the precautions and main steps of this dish one by one, and after explaining everything, half an hour had passed unconsciously.

"In short, remember six words, numb, spicy." In the end, she breathed a sigh of relief, and after talking for a long time, her throat was a little dry, and she reached out to pour herself a glass of water and drank it.

Over there, Xiaoju also stopped writing and rubbed her wrists, she is a maid, and she doesn't often need to write on weekdays, she hasn't written for so long, and she still has some hands for a while.

"I'll see." Gu Siniang put down the cup, took the densely written paper in front of Xiaoju, and looked at it seriously.

The fonts of this era are still a little different from traditional characters, but I don't know what's going on, but they are more inclined to simplified characters.

So Gu Siniang didn't feel any pressure when she looked at it, but Xiao Ju on the side was shocked again when she saw her looking so seriously.

"Siniang is literate?" Xiao Ju asked.

"Recognize some." Gu Siniang didn't want to hide it, her fourth uncle was a scholar, and it wasn't a big deal to know a few words as a niece.

She looked at Xiao Ju's puzzled gaze before she explained with a smile, "My fourth uncle is a scholar, and he will take the children's exam in the spring next year." I also learned a few words, although I can recognize words, but I can't write. ”
