Chapter 110: The Bamboo House

An Rong was full of interest, but her arm was sore after a while, and when Peony asked her to come, An Rong didn't refuse.

I did these two little things in two hours, and it was not satisfactory.

Qiu Ju and a few maids stood aside and looked stupidly, and they had a thought in their hearts: The four girls were full of food and panicked, and they had nothing to waste medicinal materials.

"No, it's still too coarse, it's as fine as flour," An Rong twisted the powder with his hand, looked at the medicine grains of different sizes mixed in it, and shook his head.

When Shen Anji and Shen Anfu walked to the door of the bamboo house, they heard this sentence.

At this time, there was no little maid guarding the door, and the two of them came in directly with a cotton curtain, and as soon as they came in, they smelled a smell of medicine, and they couldn't help but wrinkle the tip of their noses.

Shen Anxi glanced at the room, the corners of her mouth twitched, a good elegant bamboo house was tossed in a mess, things were messed up, if it was her house, it was estimated that she would be mad.

But she was even more curious, and said with a smile, "It's really strange today, the fourth sister and the fifth sister went to the eldest princess's mansion in the morning as guests, and when they came back in the afternoon, one went into the kitchen and didn't come out, saying that they were going to cook a meal for the eldest lady who had an unappetizing appetite, and the other changed a good bamboo house into a pharmacy, fourth sister, what are you going to do?" ”

An Rong clapped his hands, looked back at Shen Anxi, and said with a smile, "Are you curious about what I'm doing, or are you curious about why the fifth sister did that?" ”

Shen Anxi glanced at the charcoal-like medicinal herbs, a sneer crossed the corner of her mouth, and she really thought that she would be able to become a doctor with a few secret recipes in her hand.

They came to ask Shen Anyu, who had never been in the kitchen, why she suddenly seemed to be a different person, and found the best mothers-in-law in the kitchen, and made sure that those mothers-in-law taught her cooking skills within a day.

It's true that the eldest lady has a bad appetite, but is Shen Anyu so filial?

They don't believe it at all.

If you want to be really filial, you should accompany the eldest lady in the mansion today, instead of going to the eldest princess's mansion.

Shen Anyu's maid was strict-mouthed, so she could only come to An Rong to inquire, and her intuition told her that Shen Anyu's abnormality had nothing to do with the plum blossom banquet, but she couldn't say why.

Shen Anfu wanted to go over to help An Rong, and after taking two steps, she found a piece of paper on the table, like a secret recipe, and she reached out to take it.

An Rong took a step faster than her, picked it up, and smiled meaningfully, "The secret recipe last time was enough for me to have a headache, no one should move these things." ”

Shen Anfu's face changed slightly, and her face was stained with thin anger, "Fourth sister, don't be wronged once, just think of everyone as having ulterior intentions, and have other plans for your secret recipe, I'm just curious to take a look, you give it to me, I'm not happy to see it!" ”

As he spoke, he turned sideways with a look of grievance.

An Rong hooked her lips and smiled, folded the secret recipe, and continued to do what she should do, and told Shen Anji by the way, "Why does the fifth sister like to cook, don't ask me about this, she told me not to leak a word, but I think, with your intelligence, you should know how to do it, right?" ”

Shen Anyu frowned, Shen Anyu's temperament likes to eat alone the most, and if he can occupy it alone, he will definitely not sue the second person.

What they can't figure out is why An Rong doesn't cook, if An Rong also cooks, he knows what to do with his knees.

Shen Anfu and Shen Anxi glanced at each other, and their eyes fell on Peony.

After the two went out, Cuiyun came to Peony after a while and said what embroidery to take, and Peony farts and threw away the work in her hand.

Shen Anfu and Shen Anxi spent two taels of silver to buy a sentence: This year's plum blossom banquet is different from the past, and half of them may try their cooking skills.

After hearing this, the two of them changed their faces slightly, glanced at each other, and hurried back to make amends.

Shen Anxi was about to go to the big kitchen, Shen Anfu grabbed her and said with a smile, "The big kitchen is the territory of the fifth sister, you go, she has a look, who will teach you with heart, if I am you, you go to the old lady, the chef in Songhe Courtyard is much better than the big kitchen." ”

Shen Anji thought about it, glanced at Shen Anfu gratefully, and walked towards Songhe Courtyard.

Peony turned around step by step into the bamboo house, came to An Rong's side, and asked in a low voice, "Now there is only one invitation, and the second girl and the third girl can only go to one, why does the second girl still help the third girl?" ”

An Rongxiao glanced at Peony and asked Qiu Ju, who was eavesdropping with her ears pricked up, "Qiu Ju, why do you think the second girl wants to help the third girl?" ”

Qiu Ju's body was stunned, and if she wanted to say that she didn't know, she thought of something, and said with a smile, "The fifth girl is stingy by nature, and she can't see anyone better than her, the third girl learns cooking skills from the cook in the old lady's yard, the fifth girl must be angry in her heart, goodbye the second girl is clumsy, this won't, that won't, she will definitely take her, and not the third girl." ”

An Rong listened to the corners of his mouth lightly, Qiu Ju was very smart, she could see very clearly, and she knew how to make trade-offs.

Now that the eldest lady is grounded, she can't be released in a short period of time, and she is beginning to bloom, and the old lady is still protecting her, knowing that she is scolded.

It's a pity that she made a mistake, she Shen Anrong also knows her well enough, the character of the wall grass, she can give up the eldest lady today, he will definitely betray her for the sake of interests, such a maid can be used, but it must not be important!

Sure enough, as An Rong expected, Shen Anyu went to Songhe Academy to learn cooking, and Shen Anfu ran under Shen Anyu's nose.

First of all, she was in a hurry, making a mess of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and then ran to Shen Anyu to see how she learned, how to learn it?

The envious and jealous eyes made Shen Anyu fluttering, she really looked down on her before, and really thought she could make pastries, but it turned out to be a shameless blind show.

Then let the maid inquire about Shen Anji, and heard the maid say that she studied very seriously, and even the mother of the kitchen steward praised her for learning quickly.

Shen Anyu's face suddenly became gloomy, and as soon as Shen Anfu provoked again, she snorted coldly, "What's the use of learning faster, without an invitation, it's useless for her to be the imperial chef!" ”

By the time Shen Anyu reacted, it was already too late, and Shen Anyu promised to take Shen Anfu to the plum blossom banquet, and the angry Shen Anyu almost didn't burn the kitchen of Songhe Courtyard.

Her eyes burst out with bloodthirsty coldness, Shen Anxi's fists clenched, her chest slumped as she tried to calm down, and the corners of her mouth hooked up with a sneer, thinking that this would make her stop going?

I can't help but underestimate her!

Shen Anyu pretended not to know anything, and learned cooking carefully and carefully, which surprised An Rong, she had the same idea as Shen Anyu, there was no invitation, no matter how good she learned cooking, what was the use?

Just when An Rong felt that something was wrong with Shen Anxi, the old lady still felt that something was wrong with her.

Shen Anyu and the others have all learned cooking, and they seem to be preparing for the plum blossom banquet, but An Rong is not in a hurry at all, she is more active than anyone else in previous years.

No, when An Rong went to ask for An the next day, the old lady looked her up and down, and asked puzzledly, "They are all actively preparing for the plum blossom banquet, why are you not in a hurry, but vacate the bamboo house to make a pharmacy?" ”

An Rong sat down next to the old lady, twisted the handkerchief embroidered with Youlan, pouted her delicate lips and said, "Daddy hasn't even returned my family affairs, and I'm still worried about this." ”

The implication is that she doesn't have the heart to prepare for the plum blossom banquet at all, even if she makes a table of good dishes that attract the attention of countless noble ladies, but what's the use, who would dare to compete with Xiao Guogong's Mansion and the Pei family?

The old lady understood the deep meaning of An Rong's words, stroked An Rong's head, comforted her twice, and then revealed the matter.

Mother Sun took the account book, the old lady taught An Rong how to read the accounts, An Rong scratched her forehead, in fact, she can read the accounts, she doesn't have to learn at all, but she has to pretend that she doesn't know anything, it's really hard.

After turning two pages, Shen Anxi came.

An Rong hurriedly closed the account book and said to the old lady, "Grandmother, after the plum blossom banquet, can I learn again?" ”

The old lady poked An Rong's head, "I'm really lazy." ”

But it still followed An Rong's wishes.

An Rong looked at Shen Anxi's face, a little pale, pulled her to sit down, and asked, "Why is your face so bad?" ”

Shen Anxi shook his head and chuckled, "It's out of the way, I thought that the fourth sister was also going to learn cooking, and I planned to learn it with you." ”

The old lady looked at Shen Anxi's face, waved her hand and said, "You can't find a few ladies who know how to cook, if you are unwell, don't embarrass yourself." ”

As soon as the words fell, Qifu outside rushed in and said, "Old lady, the second young master is back!" ”

Shen Anxi was stunned, then overjoyed, and stood up directly, but because of the violence, her body shook, but fortunately, Luliu supported her in time and did not fall.

The old lady also looked happy, and told Shen Anxi to sit down and wait, before asking Qifu, "The third master is also back?" ”

Qifu shook his head, "The second young master came back first." ”

As he spoke, he saw a handsome young man walk into the screen, not very old, with some immaturity on his fair face, but his eyes were bright, revealing a tenacity and wisdom, it was Shen Anmin, who was only a few months away from turning sixteen.

When he entered the door, he knelt down to greet the old lady, and the old lady's tears of joy flowed out, so he stepped forward and said in a choked voice, "I haven't seen you for almost a year, and my grandmother is almost unrecognizable to her grandson, who has grown up a lot, just like when your father was young." ”

Shen Anmin's eyes were slightly red, and he called his grandmother affectionately, and then looked at Shen Anxi and An Rong.

After greeting each other, the old lady asked Shen Anmin if he was tired of coming back all the way, when his father and mother would come back, and how he had been doing this year.

In the room, they were talking happily, but someone who didn't look long came in and interrupted them, "Old lady, Second Master Jiang Second Mrs. Jiang is here." ”

The old lady's happy face suddenly turned cold, and she snorted, "Let him wait outside!" ”

A thief, the old lady will never let go of her precious grandson, but ask to care about him.

Poor Second Master Jiang was afraid that An Rong would go out again and pounce on the air again, so he specially got up early in the morning, who wanted to meet Shen Anmin and come back. R1152
