Chapter 53 Grandchildren
"Young master, half an hour ago, the fourth girl asked someone to bring a snack, and the little one saw that you were taking a nap, so she didn't wake you up."
Gao Sheng has the habit of taking a nap, and when he got up, he saw Ah Fu walking in from outside with a small food box in both hands, saying that Gao Jun had sent it to him.
It's a surprise to send snacks! Gao Sheng has never liked sweets, Gao Jun naturally knows that he has a little habit, but today's behavior, I feel strange when I look at it, the so-called abnormal things must have demons, so Gao Sheng couldn't help but take a look at the food box.
"What kind of snacks, it's worth her to have someone send them."
Ah Fu stepped forward with a smile, dragged the bottom of the food box with one hand, opened the lid with the other, and approached the master.
"Young master, I heard from Lily of the Valley, who delivered snacks, that this is the craftsmanship of the eldest girl of the Xu family."
"Oh?"
It was made by Xu Yunhua.
Gao Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly, his gaze fell, and he wandered to the inside of the food box, and sure enough, he saw three pieces of dim sum neatly placed on the glass plate in the center.
Nowadays, the girls who have not come out of the cabinet like to be popular, piano skills, calligraphy and painting, etc., but few people are willing to focus on cooking.
This Miss Xu is really different!
"Young master, this cake is called Peach Blossom Cake, and it is filled with peach blossoms in our garden, don't you want to taste it?" Ah Fu asked.
The peach blossoms are filled, which sounds fresh, but Gao Sheng has no appetite at this time.
"Well, let's leave it there for now."
Ah Fu was originally curious about this peach blossom cake, but after listening to the master's instructions, he had no choice but to close the lid of the food box and put it on the small table on the side.
Afterwards, Gao Sheng went to Moyun Hall and asked his grandmother to say goodbye.
And the reason why he chose the afternoon is because at this hour, there are few 'idle people' in Moyun Hall, and it is suitable to say some whispers that are not suitable for publicity.
Sure enough, when Gao Sheng arrived, Mrs. Gao was sitting alone on the Luohan bed in the main room, listening to the little maid reading, she saw that the person who came was the eldest grandson, and immediately smiled, stretched out her hand to beckon Gao Sheng to sit beside her.
"Well, I look much better, the doctor prescribed medicine, and I still take it, right?" After taking a closer look, Mrs. Gao said.
Gao Sheng smiled and nodded, "Thank you grandmother for your concern, the medicine is still on your mind." ”
Hearing the satisfactory answer, Mrs. Gao reached out and touched Gao Sheng's forearm again, in order to find out if the clothes on his body were warm.
"You can't take off your jacket, although it's March, it's still very cold in the morning and evening, your body is weak, you can't be windy anymore."
Even if he failed to participate in last year's palace examination, and now Gao Sheng can only stay at home to recuperate, but in the eyes of Mrs. Gao, this eldest grandson is still the most promising person in the Gao family, and his love for her has not diminished a bit.
"Yes, they all listen to Grandmother."
Gao Sheng replied gently, and when he inadvertently lowered his head, he happened to see a familiar glass plate placed on the low table in the middle of the Luohan bed, and there was only a piece of dim sum left in the plate.
Mrs. Gao noticed that Gao Sheng's gaze stopped on the peach blossom cake, so she immediately explained, "This is made by the eldest girl of the Xu family, and the peach blossom petals of our peach orchard are used as filling, I taste very good, Brother Sheng, do you want to taste it?" ”
Gao Sheng shook his head and replied one by one, "Don't tell my grandmother that the maid who served Jun'er also sent it to me." ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Gao's expression froze for a moment, and then she glanced at Mama Wang, who understood and led a group of maids and ladies who were waiting to retreat.
Now, only the grandparents and grandchildren are left in the main house.
"Brother Sheng, there is no outsider in the house at this time, you have a real relationship with your grandmother, which of the two girls in the Xu family do you like more?"
Mrs. Gao is direct enough, but Gao Sheng can't tell the truth.
On the surface, he doesn't know much about the two girls of the Xu family, but Gao Sheng remembers all the things that Xu Peihua did after marrying Gao Xin in his previous life, and he is as ignorant as Xu Peihua, who is indeed not the ideal wife in his mind, so in comparison, Xu Yunhua is indeed better.
Even if he already has a preference, it is difficult to be difficult, Gao Sheng can't say it directly, so after a short thought, his expression is a little unpredictable.
"After all, grandchildren's family affairs still need grandparents to decide, and grandchildren themselves have no opinions."
Hearing this, Mrs. Gao thought that Gao Sheng was dissatisfied with this family affair and deliberately said so.
"Brother Sheng, grandmother knows that letting you marry the daughter of the Xu family is wronged by you after all, but your grandfather's temper, you understand, what he said, it is useless for anyone to ask, and grandmother can't help it"
Grandmother's face gradually showed embarrassment, Gao Sheng was afraid that the old man would be worried, so he hurriedly persuaded him, "Grandmother has misunderstood her grandson, the marriage is decided by the elders, it is reasonable, how can the grandson feel wronged, besides, the Xu family is kind to our family, and the grandson is more willing to marry the daughter of the Xu family to repay the kindness." ”
"It's good if you think like this, and grandmother will be relieved, then I asked you just now."
Gao Sheng thought that if he didn't say one or two things today, he was afraid that his grandmother would be more attentive after all, so he had to hint with a light smile, "My grandson prefers a woman with a calmer temperament." ”
As soon as Gao Sheng's words came out, Mrs. Gao almost immediately started to compare in her heart, if you judge by these two words, the eldest girl of the Xu family is more suitable.
"Grandmother, don't be busy thinking about this yet, my grandson has something else that I want to discuss with you."
Gao Sheng came to Moyuntang today, of course, not just to invite An, he had another more important thing to say, to listen to his grandmother.
"Oh? What else do you have to do, and that's it. ”
"Next month is Ling Hou's birthday, do you remember grandmother?"
Speaking of this, Gao Sheng's expression suddenly became serious. "How can you forget this, in the past, you had to prepare gifts every year, and this year is naturally no exception, but because of General Ling's promotion, this gift will be thicker, what's wrong?"
"My grandson has a reluctant request, so it's better to let my grandson prepare for this year's gift."
