Chapter 57: Leisurely and Warm

After Wei Tingsi left with Scarlet Pond, Zhao Shu immediately asked people to bring Scarlet Peng.

"Your brother went with Lord Wei, and this trip may be able to wash away grievances, or become a flower in this splendid future, and before he leaves, he asked the county lord to continue to take you in, saying that you have a good heart."

Zhao Shu looked at the young man in front of him who was still a little childish, but lifeless, and didn't know what to think in her heart.

Scarlet Peng grew up under the care of his family since he was a child, and his heart was not as tough as the eldest son of Scarlet Pond, and his brother was wronged in the middle of the family, and he was driven away by his relatives unsympatheticly, so that he tasted the warmth and coldness of human affection when he was not deeply involved in the world.

During his time in Yongwang's Mansion, he cherished it very much, and compared with his brother Scarlet Pond, Scarlet Peng's gratitude to Zhao Shu was stronger and more direct.

He didn't blame his brother for deciding the path he was going to take in the future without consulting him, but he understood that his brother's future was uncertain, life and death were uncertain, and Yongwangfu was naturally the best place to stay.

"It's just a little faster than the others." He was a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, you have a good rest these days, recuperate your spirits, and then go to Fubo, and he will arrange it for you."

After dealing with the matter of Scarlet Peng, Zhao Shu hurriedly went to Zhao Shu Jinxi.

Most of the ingredients she needs are available in the palace, but there are still a small part that needs to be bought outside.

Moreover, she also has a careful thought, Xing'er is a good girl, she is a good knife worker, if she can cultivate it well, she will have a bright future in the future.

When she found Jin Xi, she was waiting to set the meal, and the Queen Mother and King Yong were playing chess.

Zhao Shu didn't bother the two of them, and pulled Jin Xi to the corner.

"County Lord, what are you looking for a slave?"

"Aunt Jin Xi, how about we make a bet?"

Zhao Shu smiled, Jin Xi only felt goosebumps on her back, and the county wanted to bet with her? Experience told her that she couldn't stop betting, and even if she did, she couldn't win......

"County master, what do you want the slave to do, just say it, how can the slave and the slave make a bet with the county lord." She cried with a face, county lord, the slave didn't offend you recently.

Zhao Shu had been waiting for her words for a long time, and whispered: "Aunt Jin Xi, that apricot girl, what do you think?" ”

Jin Xi finally knew why Zhao Shu deliberately asked the illiterate apricot girl to fetch the ingredients, she was waiting here.

"Good knife work." As the head chef of Cining Palace, Jin Xi's skills are not even as good as Mama Qin.

can get a good evaluation from Jin Xi, which shows that Xing'er is very good at knife work.

"Then Aunt Jin Xi will help me bring it."

Apprentices? Jin Xi subconsciously wanted to shake her head, she was the queen mother's person, how could she accept apprentices at will, but the object of her apprenticeship was Zhao Shu, and she forcibly suppressed the urge to shake her head.

He said dryly: "I have to look at this girl's heart, so let her follow the slave maid for the past few days." ”

In fact, this is the result, Zhao Shu took out the written paper from her arms and handed it to Jin Xi, "Thank you, Aunt Jin Xi." ”

"Slaves and maids deserve the gratitude of the county master, it's all within the slaves and maids' business."

The mother and son, who were at the end of the first game over there, noticed that Zhao Shu and Jin Xi were muttering on the side, and the Queen Mother asked: "What do you say, and talk to the mourning family." ”

"Secret, don't tell you." Zhao Shu smiled and approached the Queen Mother, wanting to see whether she won or lost, but was blocked by King Yong.

"It's time to eat."

Zhao Shu secretly speculated, it won't be your father who loses, right?

Unfortunately, she will never get this answer.

After the meal, the ingredients are ready.

"What is Jun going to do?" The Queen Mother asked.

"Imperial Grandmother, you just look at it."

Since it is a study of food, it is natural that everyone has to work together, so Zhao Shu asked people to bring charcoal fires and utensils and put them in the shade by the lake.

In the scorching summer, on the edge of the sparkling lake, watching the green willows supporting the wind, the summer flowers are brilliant, and studying the food, this is the first level of enjoyment in the world.

"The smell of milk is too strong, don't you want to change it?" Jin Xi made a hand on the side.

can get the unique aunt of the queen mother of the imperial dining room, and there is no one, Zhao Shu is the only one.

"Cooking with ginger preserves the umami flavor without losing its unique taste." These are all things that Ah Jiu often does, she has seen a lot and knows the steps.

Jin Xi listened to it and thought, the queen mother came to the Yongwang Mansion with the intention of supporting the prince and the county lord, anyway, there is a lot of milk and goat milk, why bother to compete with the county lord? She is happy, and the Queen Mother is happy.

So, she silently did what Zhao Shu said.

"Apricot, break the egg and remove the yolk inside." Zhao Shu, whose hands-on ability is unremarkable, can only move her lips.

Xing'er was timid, and at this time, she was even more careful to do what Zhao Shu said, and she didn't dare to make a mistake.

The Queen Mother and King Yong watched from the side, "Why do you want to go to the egg yolk?" ”

"Grandmother will know." Zhao Shu continued to sell Guanzi.

"Ajun, come quickly, come and play chess with your father, just let them do these things." His Royal Highness Yongwang, who was thinking of defeating Emperor Mingde, spoke.

The steps to make double skin milk are simple, and they can be explained in a few words, and for Zhao Shu, who can't see people with hands-on ability, she feels that her father's words are very reasonable.

So, let people take pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, write down all the methods and hand them to Jin Xi, Jin Xi was half-convinced, and hinted in his heart that everything was for the queen mother.

He continued to silently follow Zhao Shu's method.

"Grandmother, Father, how about we play another game? All three of us can have fun. ”

Although she likes to play chess, she is still interested in Zhao Shu, who is a subordinate of the country, saying that she dislikes her father and admits it.

In fact, His Royal Highness Yongwang himself is tired of it, not for anything else, no opponents, lonely, and now that he hears that there are three people playing, he is interested, and he doesn't have to worry about how to take care of his mother and daughter.

"What's your weird idea? Let's talk about mourning. ”

In the heart of the Queen Mother, her good grandson is the smartest and well-behaved in the world, and no one can go over it.

Zhao Shu smiled shyly, and it was time to plagiarize other people's achievements, she was very embarrassed, and silently apologized to the inventor of playing cards.

"Can the imperial grandmother play with leaves?" Legend has it that Ye Zi Opera is the originator of board games.

The Queen Mother nodded, Ye Zixi was a game that began to circulate between the emperor and the concubine in previous dynasties, it was simple and easy to understand, and she would do it.

"My granddaughter has changed a little, how about we change to a new way of playing?" Zhao Shu decided to move the landlord here.

Think about it, the words "cutting the feudal domain, changing the land and returning to the stream", and fighting the landlord are really in line with the current political situation, but the words have to be changed, after all, she herself is a nobleman among the landlords.

Sendai Temple is leisurely and warm, surrounded by the queen mother's henchmen, and they are full of tacit understanding.

However, the courtyard where the aunts lived made a circle of ripples, causing turbulence in their hearts.
