Chapter 204: Gift-giving

When Linglong returned to Zhuangzi, she knew that there were guests.

Freeloader.

She didn't expect the guests.

The Flower Carving Girl.

"Last time, Miss Jin Wu was frightened, and I was worried and couldn't help it. Huangzhuang is remote, and there are no good objects, today I just sent some white and cress, these are all vegetables from the south, the chef in Huangzhuang can't do these, so I will move two baskets and give Miss Jin Wu a taste. ”

The flower carving combs the peony bun, wears a little emerald flower, the body is full of red gold plate collar placket makeup gown, wears a red gold inlaid jade bracelet, and the feet are embroidered shoes with Shu brocade inlaid beads, this body is no less than a thousand taels, just standing next to two baskets of vegetables, it looks a little funny.

But what she said was full of loopholes, Qingjue Villa is an imperial village, the chefs here are all imperial chefs, cocoon white and watercress are rare in the capital, but they are just ordinary vegetables in Jiangnan, how can the imperial chefs not do it?

Linglong looked at the vegetables in the basket, the water was white and snow-white and fresh, the cress was green and fresh, and the two baskets of vegetables were fresh. In such a late autumn season, it is rare to be able to eat cucumber spinach in the Fengtai greenhouse, not to mention the cocoon white and watercress produced in Nanzhili. These two baskets of vegetables can't be bought with money.

It is clear that Huadiao heard that the Jin family is from Jiangsu, so he sent these two baskets of things.

Linglong was surprised, but her face was very calm, and she generously thanked the flower carving, and as a gift, she asked Jin Shun's daughter-in-law to load two baskets of hawthorn and chestnut produced in Zhuangzi.

Since Huadiao said that the two baskets of vegetables were sent in her own name, she took some mountain goods from Zhuangzi as a return gift. Don't be picky.

Huadiao did not refuse, and left with a smile.

Linglong looked at the two baskets of fresh vegetables placed on the ground, and the smile on her face slowly faded.

Huadiao caught Xingyu by mistake, it was indeed rude first, but after all, she was a female official in the palace, and she led people to arrest people near Huangzhuang, which was justified, even if it was offensive to the officials, it was nothing.

Apologize once, apologize twice. Plus help deliver letters. That's a little off.

Moreover, although Huadiao is a female official, she is also the identity of a subordinate. If she says it's her own, that's fine. But just now her words are beyond her words. These two baskets of fresh vegetables were clearly taken out of the kitchen.

Although the kitchen in the imperial village is not as good as the imperial dining room in the palace. But it doesn't seem to be in harmony with taking out things to give favors in such a big way.

There is only one possibility, Huadiao sent these two baskets of things over. Someone agreed.

Who would agree to that?

Looking at the dress of the flower carving, it should be a female official with a high position, but she is dressed flamboyantly. Most of the female officials around the queen and the concubines will not dress like this.

Of course, it can't be the emperor, if the emperor comes here, the entire Xiling area is fifty miles, and the grass and trees are already all soldiers.

Who can dress up like a young grandmother from a big family?

Linglong's heart moved, prince?

She has been to the Seven Princes' Mansion, and although the maids around the Seven Princes Gu Keying are well-dressed, they are not dressed up as luxurious and gorgeous as Huadiao.

Well, Linglong smiled bitterly, she guessed the identity of Huadiao.

Whether it is in the palace, or the palace of the prince or the prince's mansion, they are all hierarchical. Eight or nine out of ten Huadiao is the pillow person of a certain prince, but it is not the imperial concubine or the side concubine or concubine, it is the kind of identity that is more embarrassing and ambiguous.

It's like a big house.

Linglong thought of the Twelve Princes, before she knew Huadiao, she thought of Qingjue Villa, and she would first think of the Twelve Princes.

Qingjue Villa is an imperial village, not the private property of a certain prince, and of course it will not be just the twelve princes who can live here.

I think that Huadiao came with a certain prince, no matter which prince this prince is, it will not be the twelfth prince.

The Twelve Princes can't be humane, so it's useless for him to carve such a beauty.

It can't be used as an ornament, then just put a few vases, there is no need to put a lively beauty by your side, you are in a hurry.

Linglong laughed, she felt like she was thinking too much. That's it, what do you want to do so much, after coming to the capital, it was the first time she saw mushrooms and cress.

Roasted pork, fried and dried with cress, exquisitely swallowed saliva, now in this season, you may not be able to eat these two dishes in Nanzhili.

No matter what Huadiao'an thinks, these two baskets of vegetables can't be stored for a long time.

That day's dinner not only included braised bacon and stir-fried dried cress, but also fried chicken gizzards with braised coconut white and cress.

Feng was a northerner and had little interest in these two things, so Liu Zhu fed her a few bites, and she stopped eating them. Linglong ate a lot, and ate three bowls of fragrant stem rice alone. The four plates of stir-fry were all eaten cleanly.

When she was growing up, she usually had a great appetite, and when she came across what she liked to eat, of course, she ate more.

Xingyu also ate a lot, she is an authentic northerner, but she grew up with Linglong in Nanzhili since she was a child, and her taste has long changed.

"It's still the freshest and most tender cress, and there are so many celery tendons that I eat on weekdays, which is as delicious as this." Xingyu was still muttering there.

Linglong said with a smile: "Do you miss the old house, then another day I will ask someone to find you a family in Nanzhili and marry you back." In that way, you can not only eat coconut white and cress, but also eat mushrooms and chicken head rice, and don't forget to send me a few baskets to the capital during the New Year's holidays. ”

Xingyu blushed and said angrily: "I just said that the cress is delicious, why are you involved in this, I don't want to marry Nan Zhili, where the young lady is, I will be there." ”

Liuzhu on the side interjected: "If Miss marries Nanzhili, Sister Xingyu will be able to go with her." Pity us, the people from the north, if we had been following us, wouldn't we not have been able to eat the things of the north? I heard Jin Shun's sister-in-law say that Nan Zhili didn't have toon buds to eat. ”

These little girls know how to eat all day long, and Linglong was about to tease them, when she saw Qin Fei running in: "Fifth Miss, that flower carving girl is here again, and Sister-in-law Jin Shun is receiving her in front." ”

Linglong frowned, why is this thing more and more wrong?

It's already dark, dinner time has passed, this flower carving girl has gone and returned, she has come to deliver things again this time?

"What is she doing here? Did Jin Shun's daughter-in-law send someone to pass the word? Linglong asked.

Qin Fei nodded: "Sister-in-law Jin Shun sent Wang Er's family to invite you over, saying that the flower carving girl sent something over again, and the things sent this time are a little different, she asks you to go over and have a look." ”

Linglong was confused, listening to this tone, could it be that Huadiao sent two baskets of gold?
