Chapter 105: Clues
Ye Tingyao handed the post to Qingman and said with a smile, "Put the post away for me, I'm going to Xiaoxiyuan." ”
Ye Tingyao decided to keep the water drop jade bottle with her, and she personally fed her brother every day, after all, it was about whether her brother could return to normal, so she didn't dare to be careless at all.
In another place, after Lu Tianqi quietly left the Ye Mansion, he no longer went to the public office, and even pushed the Queen Mother to call him into the palace for dinner, and went straight back to Prince Mu's mansion, locked in the study and refused to come out.
After kissing Xiangze, Lu Tianqi's heart was even more flustered and nervous than Ye Tingyao, and there seemed to be a fire in his body that was jumping back and forth, making him anxious.
Lu Tianqi drank several cups of cold tea in a row, and after swallowing several times, he became more and more thirsty.
After walking back and forth in the study a few times, Lu Tianqi couldn't bear it anymore, so he ordered the servants to prepare cold water, untie the crown and take off their robes, and enter the bath, and the coolness slowly seeped into the pores.
This was not enough, Lu Tianqi hid the whole person in the water, held his breath several times in a row, and finally felt that the fire in his body was suppressed.
Changed into a comfortable Rose silk robe, dried his hair, and ordered the little maid to braid loose braids for him at will, and went to the inner hall to find Gu's for dinner together.
When leaving the study, Lu Tianqi did not forget to bring the pastries made by Ye Tingyao, and he wanted to invite his mother to taste Ye Tingyao's cooking skills.
……
In the inner hall of the second courtyard of Prince Mu's mansion, the small incense burner of Jinding on the table of the descendants of Wandai pattern red sandalwood bent foot is burning with elegant sandalwood, and the curling green smoke rises like a streamer, spreading all over the inner hall.
The dining table is already full of delicacies, although it is just an ordinary dinner, but the seven meats, three vegetables and two soups on the dining table are very rich.
Helplessly, no matter how delicate the dishes were, they couldn't get into Lu Tianqi's eyes, and after Lu Tianqi entered the inner hall, he ordered the maid to send an empty plate up, and personally stacked the pastries on the plate one by one.
"Mother, you try this pastry, I brought it back." Lu Tianqi smiled at his mother.
Gu Shi was overjoyed when he saw Lu Tianqi's smiling appearance, after Tianqi returned from Lianzhou County, Tianqi had a straight face almost every day, and there was often bitterness and depression in his eyes.
Although she knew that her son's temperament was cold and unsmiling, she never worried.
Gu's temperament is very good. He slowly walked to the dining table and sat down, and took a closer look at the pastries brought back by Lu Tianqi, which were ordinary pea yellow and cut flower cakes, five small pieces each.
The variety is ordinary and can be delicate. Gu's eyes lit up slightly, and he said curiously, "This pastry is so small, it's very interesting to look at." ”
It turns out that the pastries Ye Tingyao makes now are only a quarter the size of ordinary pastries.
Ye Tingyao mainly considered that the pastry was sweet. It's easy to get tired of eating in one go, and pea yellow is easy to drop crumbs and dregs in your hands.
Ye Tingyao thought of transforming the pastry mold and scaling it down.
Such a small and small piece of cake, one bite at a time, is not easy to get tired of, and it is also convenient to eat.
Lu Tianqi handed a piece of cut flower cake to Gu, and he couldn't wait to taste a piece of pea yellow. The familiar taste lingered on the tip of his tongue, and Lu Tianqi seemed to have returned to the days when he once lived in Lizhuang Village.
At that time, Ye Tingyao would change his tricks every day to make pastries for him to make tea, and he once ate a plate of cakes from the little gourd when he was not paying attention because he didn't eat enough. After Ye Tingyao found out about this, he didn't hurt him less......
Thinking of this, Lu Tianqi couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
Lu Tianqi's unusual expression fell into Gu's eyes, Gu was surprised and delighted, and tasted the cut flower cake with great anticipation, it was indeed delicious.
Gu inadvertently raised his eyes and saw the water orchid pattern brocade that Lu Tianqi had in hand and had used to make pastries before. His eyebrows moved slightly, and he covered his mouth and smiled, "Qi'er, this pastry was bought from Shilifeng Teahouse." The day before yesterday, a lady gave me a box. ”
Lu Tianqi frowned unhappily, "No, it's much better than what Shilifeng Teahouse makes." ”
The pastry chef of Shilifeng Teahouse is Ye Tingyao's apprentice, it is possible to be a little similar, but how can it be exactly the same.
Lu Tianqi was quite dissatisfied with his mother's taste and taste.
Gu nodded Lu Tianqi's forehead, "You kid." Look at your expression, do you really think of your mother as a village woman? Although the taste is similar, the mother knows that it is different, and the pastries brought back by Qi'er taste are more delicate and sweet, and the mastery of the heat is not at the same level. Back then, your mother didn't make snacks for your father, and I still have this eyesight...... Qi'er obediently told her mother which girl gave it to you. ”
Lu Tianqi was stunned for a moment, the smile on the corner of his mouth froze, and he made a move that there was no silver three hundred taels here-he quickly hid the brocade in his sleeve, and said embarrassedly, "What kind of girl, I tasted it in a small shop in Dongshi, and I thought it tasted good, so I specially brought it back for my mother to taste." ”
Gu glared at Lu Tianqi angrily and funny, she knew Lu Tianqi's stubbornness, the child refused to say, she would definitely not be able to ask the result, but it was really uncomfortable to be tortured by curiosity, and she was also worried that Tianqi would suffer, and planned to call the guards around Lu Tianqi to the inner hall for a while, and she would know what the situation was.
was exposed by his mother, Lu Tianqi was worried that Gu would get to the bottom of it, so he only buried his head in anxiety and quickly pulled the meal, and finished the meal in the blink of an eye.
Lu Tianqi couldn't wait to get up and said, "Mother, I still haven't read the official documents, so I'll go back to the study first." ”
Lu Tianqi didn't take two steps, turned back, took half of the pastries on the table, and said curtly, "Mother can't eat so much, it's a pity that it's broken, I'll take half of it for the evening as a snack." ”
Gu Shi became more and more amused, "Mother shouldn't have heard it wrong, Qi'er will know how to cherish food at some point." ”
Lu Tianqi didn't dare to agree, and said goodbye to the Gu family and left in a hurry.
After the evening meal, Gu leaned on the red sandalwood dwarf in the inner hall and closed his eyes to rest, and Cai Yuan quietly played a fan for Gu on the side.
Just after the unitary, the little maid entered the house and said to the Gu family, "Madam, Chen Feng, the guard next to the prince, has arrived. ”
Gu Shi opened his eyes and said with a smile, "Quickly invite Guard Chen in." ”
Gu knew that Chen Feng was Lu Tianqi's most trusted, so he naturally wanted to ask Chen Feng for news.
"The little one has seen the lady." Chen Feng entered the inner hall and bowed and hugged his fists in salute.
"No need to be polite." Gu smiled very kindly, and asked straight to the point, "Guard Chen, do you know which girl Qi'er has been close to during this time?" ”
"This, this ......" Chen Feng chuckled in his heart, sweat broke out on his forehead, Madame asked him directly which girl he had, instead of asking if there was a girl, could it be that Madame had already determined?
Chen Feng knelt down suddenly, "The master doesn't let the little one speak, and asks the lady to forgive the little one." ”
Gu raised his eyebrows, and sneered, "It seems that Qi'er really has a sweetheart." ”
Gu Shi bowed his jaw and said, "I know you won't say it, if you say it so easily, you won't be Qi'er's most trusted guard." ”
Chen Feng wiped his sweat, "Madame is wise, please be considerate of the little one." ”
"But Chen Feng, the love of Qi'er is just beginning, I'm worried that he will be used by someone with a heart, you better tell me the truth, I'm a mother, and I can check for my son."
Chen Feng, "......" (To be continued.) )
