In the flower hall of the Su Mansion, the mahogany carved chairs that were neatly placed before have been removed.

Now there is a table of Huanghuali Eight Immortals carried by ten people in the center, and dishes served with fine blue and white porcelain are stacked on the table, and each dish is covered with a lid, and the meals made by Gu Qi are in these dishes.

"Madam, the dishes made by several masters are here, do you want to start tasting?" The big maid who had been standing beside Mrs. Su asked.

Mrs. Su looked at the table in front of her expressionlessly, took the warm handkerchief handed by the maid and wiped it back and forth twice, then lightly opened her lips and said:

"Let's set the table, I hope to see something different today."

The maid who was waiting for her heard this, holding her sleeve lightly with one hand, and quietly removed the lids on those dishes with the other hand. People's dishes.

Mrs. Su turned her eyebrows slightly, looked left and right, sighed slightly, but did not raise her chopsticks.

It seems that today's dish still failed, and the big girl who carried it shook her head and beckoned someone to remove the dish.

"Wait, Xingrui, bring me a bowl of the consommé in the corner." Mrs. Su suddenly pointed to the soup in the corner that was almost as clear as water.

Somehow, when I saw that plate of color and luster. She really didn't have any appetite at all when it was a dish with oil and water, but the inconspicuous soup served in a large bowl of the sea aroused her interest.

The eldest girl Xingrui obeyed the order, and took a bowl of soup from the big bowl and put it in front of the lady.

I didn't think it was close just now, but I found that there was a clear fragrance of pine wood in this watery soup, which was a world of difference compared to the greasy dishes on the table.

Mrs. Su picked up the porcelain white spoon and took a small sip to her mouth, the taste was ......

A pair of eyebrows as thin as willow leaves frowned slightly unconsciously.

"Xingrui, who made this soup?"

Mrs. Su put down the spoon in her hand, picked up the handkerchief she was carrying and wiped the corners of her mouth.

"Mrs. Hui, this soup was made by that little girl named Gu Qiqi."

Xing Rui looked at the eyes of the Su family's chef next to her and replied, looking at Mrs. 's expression, it shouldn't taste very good, it seems that the little girl is still too big.

At the moment, no matter whether the lady is rewarded or punished, it is best to take yourself out as much as possible.

"Madam, do you want to summon that Gu girl?" Apricot stamens are yì.

Mrs. Su bowed slightly, Xing Rui walked out, and after a while, she saw her leading Gu Qi in.

"Miss Gu, dare to ask you what this soup is made of?"

Mrs. Su asked directly straight to the point, she really knew how this soup was made with nothing and an unusually fragrant fragrance, not to mention, when the soup was just swallowed, it slid into the throat like a clear spring, and slowly extended to the limbs, making people feel a lot more energetic.

"Madam, this soup uses only two flavored ingredients, and the natural aroma of the ingredients themselves is obtained."

"Oh?" Mrs. Su raised her eyebrows lightly, but she didn't expect that such a delicious soup only used two flavored ingredients, which was really unexpected: "Then what are these two flavored ingredients?" ”

"Mrs. Hui, I use the fresh pine mushrooms and silver dancao that you just transported from the south. This pine mushroom is also called matsutake mushroom, born in the pine forest, the fungus buds are like deer antler velvet, so it is called matsutake mushroom, it is a pure natural tonic, can enter the spleen, kidney, in addition to the effect of dividing dampness and turbidity, strengthening the kidney, often take it can also be youthful and beautiful and beautiful. ”

In order to make the soup clear, and to highlight the purpose of his selection of ingredients, Gu Qi continued: "This silver dancao, also known as mint, has a special aroma, spicy and cool feeling, when you drink the soup, if you feel a slightly cool dry mouth, most of the credit is the credit of this thing, in addition, it also has the effect of dissipating wind and heat, clearing the throat, soothing the liver and relieving depression, these two ingredients are the symptoms of your diet disorder." ”

"Little girl, how do you judge?"

Gu Qi's words aroused Mrs. Su's interest, and she wanted to know how a girl who was still worth cardamom judged it.

"That's right." The corners of Gu Qi's mouth hooked slightly, and he looked at Mrs. Su with a clear gaze: "You said before, your ancestral home is Jiangning, and you said that as long as you smell the smell of food today, you will be nauseous and uncomfortable, right?" ”

"Exactly." Mrs. Su nodded.

"That's it, Jiangning belongs to the south, and the diet is mainly soup and exquisite dishes, you arrive in the northern Su Mansion, although the ingredients in the house are complete, and the chefs are skilled, but I think the taste they make is probably still different from the taste of Jiangning."

"Besides, people will always miss their hometown, so I guess your irregular diet may also be caused by homesickness, I don't know if it's said below?"

"Miss Gu, you won." Mrs. Su didn't answer her question, she just looked at Gu Qi with admiration in her eyes, and clapped her hands twice:

"Come on, reward the girl with five hundred taels of silver."

"Yes."

Immediately, someone outside the hall responded, and after a while, a small box containing five hundred taels of silver tickets fell into Gu Qi's hands.

Gu Qi pressed the ups and downs in his heart, bowed to Mrs. Su twice, and heard a voice behind him:

"Mother, what is this, why did you make this little one kneel on the ground?"

The person who came was the one who teased her in the kitchen, and I saw him walking in with a landscape folding fan in his hand, wide sleeves and wide clothes, and a crown and belt.

"The eldest young master came just in time, come and taste the soup made by this little girl, it is really delicious." Mrs. Su pulled the Su family into a seat very kindly, and forgot to ask Gu Qi to get up in a hurry.

Unexpectedly, this person turned out to be Su Baiyan, the eldest young master of the Su family, Gu Qi looked at the person opposite in disbelief, didn't he say that the eldest young master Su couldn't come back when he went out, so what was the situation just now, could the rumors be wrong?

"Mother, who is this person, it's annoying to look at, you send her away!" Su Baiyan looked at Gu Qi who was still kneeling there without a trace, and his disgust was overflowing.

No, there were still talking and laughing in the kitchen just now, how did you get here It's like a different person, it's the legendary schizophrenia.

Seeing that Su Dashao's face was cold, Mrs. Su didn't say anything more, and hurriedly instructed her subordinates to invite Gu Qi down.

Gu Qi didn't think anything, she got it anyway, and now she just went back, and this box of silver tickets is enough to surprise Zongzi and Xuan'er.

So, Gu Qi, who was full of spring breeze, was overjoyed and walked out with the small box, and before he could take a few steps, he was stopped by the housekeeper of Su Mansion: "Miss Gu go slowly, my wife still has something to say to you, please move to the side hall and wait." ”

"What else does Mrs. Su have to tell the little girl?"

Gu Qi asked the Su family's housekeeper curiously, not wanting that the housekeeper to be a mouthless gourd, so he didn't pour out a word.
