Golden osmanthus cake is a two-color cake made of honey cinnamon and eggs and glutinous rice, the upper layer is the golden egg osmanthus cake, and the lower layer is the white bottom cake made of glutinous rice and osmanthus, a layer of gold and a layer of white, gold and jade, very beautiful, and the final shape was also taken care of and cut into a diamond shape with a small bamboo slice.
The master felt fresh, it was the first time to use flowers to season, so he reached out and took a piece, his eyes were full of surprise, the softness of the eggs, the dense glutinous rice, the faint fragrance of osmanthus between the lips and teeth, the slight astringency of osmanthus neutralized the sweetness of honey, quite delicious and delicious.
"Miss Five, you ...... This ......" Master Zhou was a little unable to express his excitement.
Guomu was not polite, he directly took a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, and after chewing, he licked the finger that took the cake just now, and clicked his mouth: "Miss's osmanthus cake is simply delicious, the golden part is very soft and smooth, the white part is sticky, the floral fragrance and honey, ah!" It's so delicious! Miss is the god of cooking! β
Guomu is indeed very clever, and he immediately expressed his feelings clearly, and gestured that everyone can taste it, originally there were only a few of them in the kitchen, and when they said to make things, a few curious people came out, and now they said to eat, and there were more people around.
A few servants with a bit of status came to the front and tasted it, and everyone looked at Gu in amazement, and then they all began to praise her.
Gu smiled modestly, everyone ate happily, just do it, Gu Yiyi is not the only one in the Prime Minister's Mansion who has won the hearts of the people.
At lunch, in addition to osmanthus cake and osmanthus rice wine, a table of people, including Gu Chengxiang, felt very novel.
Gu Weiwei was in confinement, so he didn't come to eat, Wu took Gu Liu and Zhang's to have lunch together, during the banquet, Gu glanced at Zhang, who had no expression, and said gently: "Daddy." β
"What's wrong?" Prime Minister Gu originally felt that this daughter had no strengths, and he didn't expect anything from her, and the family treated Gu Weiwei as the eldest lady, and he knew these in his heart, but now that Gu has grown, he likes it very much as if he has hope.
"Daddy, my daughter thinks that it's okay for my sister to be confined and confined to her, don't halve the monthly money, one or two silver a month, if it's halved, sister..."
Gu knew that Gu Weiwei's monthly money was definitely more than one or two silver, but it was naturally not good to ask directly, she wanted to know tactfully, she was also Miss Yan, how big was the difference between the two, and how much money did Zhang deduct from her.
Gu Chengxiang was a little strange: "Weiwei has six taels of silver a month, and halving it for a few months will not have any effect." β
After speaking, Gu Xiang thought of something again, and looked at Zhang: "How much money is it for a month?" β
Six taels?! She is only one or two, do you want such a big difference, I'm afraid that even the big maids in the house are more than this number, and she asked Yutan, Yutan has no monthly money every month, these people are really ruthless, don't say anything about leaving her in Qiushuiyuan, let two people live with one or two silver a month, it is really underestimating Zhang's family.
Gu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, lowered his head and didn't make a sound, big lady, see how you explain, is it nonsense, or is it stubborn?
Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then looked as usual: "My biological mother died early, and I also paid it according to six taels of money every month, but I was worried that she was young and ignorant, so I saved some for her as a dowry, and gave her the rest to spend her usual expenses." β
"Well, how much pocket money do you usually have?" Gu Xiang looked at it.
After taking care of it, she didn't expect Zhang to find such a reason, since she didn't explicitly say that she only had one or two silver per month, then she would give face and not mention it, after all, as long as she got the money, it would be fine.
"Daddy, auntie, you are all for my good, my daughter is now grown up, and my daughter also wants to know how to run a house like my aunt, daddy, in the future, my daughter wants to take care of her own money, if there is anything she doesn't understand, you can also ask for advice from her aunt, and her daughter also wants to be valued by her husband's family like her aunt after marrying in the future."
Gu Xiang nodded: "Ruoyun, you have calculated the monthly money, she is also older, she should learn more to be self-reliant, and you should be the eldest lady, you should also teach more." β
Zhang said lightly: "Yes, master." β
Zhang won't take this money in his eyes yet, because it won't take long to take care of it, but this girl didn't even dare to ask for money, why did she ask for so much money now?
Looking at Gu's innocent little eyes, Gu Changfeng sandwiched a little food for her: "In the future, you must be self-motivated and learn more things, Daddy has cared too little about you over the years." β
"Thank you, Daddy, my daughter will try to learn from her aunt and sisters." Gu gave him a night of osmanthus rice wine and handed it to Gu Changfeng.
After lunch, I took a good nap, and in the afternoon, Zhang brought someone to send the monthly money.
Gu saw that the Zhang family was holding a small box, but unless it was filled with gold, the amount of money was definitely not enough, and the Zhang family obviously did not save any dowry for her.
It's just a little strange to take care of it, Zhang's is so easy to speak, there should be other reasons, she hurt her daughter grounded, and she was deducted from her monthly money, how could she be willing to send money?
But now, she can't think of anything, she will accept it when she sees it, and this is the decision to take care of.
Zhang didn't stay long and left Lingxi Courtyard.
After resting for a few days, Gu felt that things seemed to be a little wrong, and there were many things in the Xiangfu that seemed to be not as simple as they seemed.
Let's not talk about others, the Wu family and her daughter Gu Yiyi are very problematic, the typical hypocrisy of their mother and daughter, just with a person like the Wu family, it is impossible to always want to be a concubine, Gu Yiyi's various ridicules of her are obviously disgusting her.
Besides, Zhang is not stupid, she must also know Wu's scheming, but why can she tolerate it? Or did she want to borrow her hand to get rid of herself? There is also a possibility that the Wu family knows some of Zhang's weaknesses, or there is some other connection between the two.
The more I thought about it, the more complicated I felt, so I just didn't think about it first, the fox will always show its tail one day, even if it is well protected, the fox smell of that body will make her appear in its original form.
As soon as he thought of this, Gu heard movement outside Lingxi Courtyard, Zhu'er came in to tell SΓΉ Yutan, and Gu Yiyi came.
"Miss, the fourth miss has come to see you, but how could it be her?" Yutan asked cautiously.
Gu also saw her nervousness: "Yutan, what did I think of the fourth sister?" β
"Miss forgot, you moved to Qiushui Garden to avoid Miss Four." Yutan pursed her lips tightly, and her face was not very good.
"So exaggerated? I don't quite remember, what happened? Gu didn't expect that Gu Yiyi's ability was so strong that it was enough for the original owner to hide in Qiushui Garden, she originally thought it was arranged by the Zhang family.
"This, it's a long story, why don't I reply to Miss Fourth first, say that you are unwell, and then talk to you slowly?" Yutan felt that Miss was finally getting better now, and she couldn't let Miss Fourth hurt Miss again.
"It's okay, let her in, don't be afraid, she won't eat me again." Gu smiled slyly, hum, they are all foxes of a thousand years, what is she doing here? Whoever is high is not necessarily.
