() I can't think of why, it is estimated that the ancients were so elegant, and it should be very charming to send a peach forest. I just don't know if these peach trees can grow delicious peaches, and then they can exchange some money.

The next day, Gu continued to go to the yard to wander around, let them, yes, but she was not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Yesterday I saw a lot of ingredients in the kitchen, although there is no curry and cumin, but there are still chili peppers, here with steaming as the main cooking method, the conditions of Xiangfu are good, the cooking oil is sesame oil and lard, but it is not much stir-frying, so it does not cost oil, just occasionally fried some pastries.

When I walked to the East Garden, I smelled a burst of osmanthus fragrance, it is early autumn, and it is indeed the season when osmanthus blooms, osmanthus is fragrant, and it is a very good food.

I walked to the East Garden, I wanted to see what kind of osmanthus this was, if it was in good condition, it was also good to eat.

Dongyuan was just built, the Prime Minister's Mansion is not big, and it is an old mansion, Gu Chengxiang misses the old, this mansion is still where he lived when he was a royal doctor, and then he was promoted to Prime Minister, he did not change the house, the emperor gave him a few Zhuangzi, and there is no problem with eating and drinking in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The decoration of the Xiangfu is very exquisite, but it is relatively old, and the decoration and house layout of the East Garden are very good in Luoguo now, and it is also the yard that the eldest lady wants to live in.

"You say, why is Miss Fifth so unwelcome, she seems to be a concubine."

The voices of the maids and grandmothers came from the East Garden, and after the East Garden was completed, the flowers and plants and some odd jobs in it had to be completed.

"I heard that she is a down-and-out young lady and has a very weak temperament, but last time Sister Luoxue was punished for kneeling for two hours, it seems to have something to do with that fifth miss, Mama Li, do you know what's going on?"

Gu hid in the flowers and trees on the side, went out today, she and Yutan went separately, Yutan went to the kitchen, she planned to get a place to make a fire and cook in her remote courtyard, she walked around by herself, she didn't expect to be able to listen to the corner.

"You two little girls have only been in the house for a few months, so naturally you don't understand, this big family, naturally there are many rules and things, you must know how to look at it." Mama Li is mainly responsible for managing the new arrivals in the yard, and is mainly responsible for some rough housework.

"I heard that the eldest lady is also a wife, could it be that the biological mother of the fifth lady and the eldest lady are equal wives?" An older maid asked.

"The eldest lady naturally entered the door, this marriage was set by the old lady, the eldest lady's family was a Beijing official at the time, the lord was still taking the merit test at that time, and later, the eldest lady gave birth to the eldest young master and the eldest lady, and the lord also took the exam, and the two respected each other like guests.

After staying in the capital for a few years, the second lady also entered the door, who knew that the emperor sent the lord to serve in other places, and he went for three years, saying that he could be promoted when he came back, and when he came back, the lord also brought a woman and a baby girl who had just turned one year old. ”

"Fifth Miss?" The maid said first.

"Yes, Miss Five's biological mother is indeed delicate and lovely, as soon as the old lady entered the door, he said that the two were equal wives, and the old lady learned that she was just a woman from a merchant family, so she was very opposed, but the old lady was very persistent, for this matter, the old lady did not forgive the old man until she died.

These three ladies are also blessed people, after entering the door, their bodies are extremely weak, and they died in a few years, the eldest lady can't accommodate their mother and daughter, and the old man feels sorry for the old lady, so he snubbed the fifth lady, so in this family, the eldest lady is naturally respected, and the fifth lady, hmph, is a famous and worthless person. Mama Li adjusted her sitting posture, took a sip of the tea brought by the subordinate, picked up a handkerchief and wiped her mouth.

"Mama Li, then don't we have to serve Miss Five?" The maid asked curiously.

"Waiting? She is alone in Qiushui Garden, she doesn't live to be a teenager on Yutan, the fifth lady is weak, she is afraid of scaring mosquitoes to death when she speaks, and she is afraid of stepping on ants when she walks, if you want to serve, I am afraid that you don't need it, hey, people from small families can't get on the stage. Mama Li said disdainfully.

After taking care of it, she somewhat understood her status, although she was a concubine, but she was only the daughter of a businessman, and for these high-ranking women in the Prime Minister's Mansion, her status was as low as dust, no wonder the eldest lady looked at her with so disgust, and dared to treat her as an illegitimate child.

It doesn't matter, she's not the same Gu again.

Gu stood up and patted the leaves on his body, since everyone likes to talk about her, let everyone meet.

"You're so busy." Gu stepped forward, took a few steps faster, and helped the maid who was carrying the flower pot to put the flower pot away.

"Miss Five." Mama Li took the lead in saluting her, but it was only verbal, her body moved slightly, and she didn't get up at all.

"Mama Li is really amazing, she does everything herself." Gu said with a smile.

"Oh, these maids are all newcomers, don't discipline them well, I'm afraid they won't understand the rules in the future and bump into the masters." After Mama Li finished speaking, she said to the maid, "Why don't you hurry up and say hello to the fifth lady." ”

"The slave has seen the fifth lady."

The maids saluted.

"It's okay, I'm here for nothing, I just want to pick some osmanthus." After speaking, he reached out and prepared to tear off the branch.

Mama Li hurriedly got up to stop: "Fifth Miss, I can't help it, this is the eldest lady's favorite yard, and the flowers and plants have to be seen by the lady." ”

Gu withdrew his hand with a frightened face, gently pinched an osmanthus flower and put it in his mouth, and tasted it: "But, I really want to eat it." ”

Mama Li looked at Gu a little incredulously, thinking that it would be better for Miss Fifth to wake up, but she didn't expect that it would just change from the original cowardice and not speaking, to the current crazy talk, eating flowers, it is really special.

"Flowers, it's okay, Miss can have as much as she wants." Mama Li beckoned the maids to help Gu pick the flowers as if she was watching a joke, and she couldn't help but dislike it, and spread out the handkerchief and put the picked osmanthus flowers.

After the maids picked some, they were about to stop, but they pouted: "Mama Li, this is not enough to eat!" ”

Mama Li covered her lips with a handkerchief and smiled, as if she was watching a joke, beckoning the maids to continue picking.

The maids were really persistent, and after a while, they picked more than a dozen osmanthus trees in the entire East Garden.

The handkerchief is almost covered, with four corners tied together, and a small pocket full.

"In autumn, why do you smell the fragrance of osmanthus?" The Zhang family has to go to Dongyuan every day to see, this is what she specially asked Gu Changfeng to build, and she is the wife.

"Maybe this osmanthus should be warmer, it's only two minutes now, and it's still a little cool." Mama Wu explained on the side.

When the two entered the door, they saw the people in the courtyard who were busy picking flowers, and immediately glared angrily: "What are you all doing!" ”

The maid knelt on the ground: "Big lady." ”

Gu also knelt on the ground, Zhang saw that the osmanthus flowers in the yard were all picked by her, and immediately scolded: "Gu Li, you actually picked all the osmanthus flowers, what is your heart!" ”
