399: Whose dependents
The spicy boiled fish is out of the pot, the fresh white and tender fish meat is rolled into slices after cooking, sprinkled with some peppercorns on the top, and then poured with a layer of boiling oil, the aroma is volatilized to the greatest extent, making people salivate when they smell it.
"It smells so good!" Ah Ju sniffed on the side and swallowed greedily.
But the uncle, the second son of Jin and Prince Ying are all here, she must not be the same as usual in private, follow the young lady and the girl to eat together, so such a good dish can only be taken before it is taken away, and smell a few more bites.
Ah Ju thought about it with regret, but as soon as she muttered a sentence in her heart, she heard someone outside.
It was the maid who was pointed out to serve Jiang Ying.
The maid first smiled and saluted, and then said to Jiang Ying: "The second prince went to the girl's tent in person, and when he saw that the girl was not there, he asked the slave maid to come and pass the word - the second prince said that he was going to have dinner with Prince Ying and Princess Dongzhu and King Xiling, as well as General Ying, and there were important matters to discuss after the meal, so he could only come to visit the girl tomorrow." I asked the girl to have dinner and rest early. β
Jiang Ying was stunned when she heard this.
She wanted to have dinner with Brother Jin and her brother in the evening.
However, they ignored the fact that the king of Xiling had come to the camp, and they had to accompany him.
Wouldn't it be a pity to have this dish?
In addition to the two fish, there are a lot of other preparations, which are more than enough for so many people, and now only she and Hua Changjing are left with Ah Ju Xiaohong, the four girls' families. You can't eat this.
"The girl's craft at making fish is so good...... Uncle and Jin Ergongzi are really out of luck. Ah Ju reacted from the maid's words and sighed a little 'hypocritically'.
"They've already started serving food over there?" Jiang Ying looked at the maid and asked.
"Count the hours, it should be the time to pass the dishes." The maid didn't know what Jiang Ying meant by this question, but she still gave an accurate answer.
Next, I listened to Jiang Ying's instructions: "Then I'll allocate another half of these dishes, and I bother you to find someone to help me deliver themββ"
Everything has been done, and it must not be wasted.
Just think of it as a big brother Jin, let's add two soup dishes.
"The girl is still so polite, even if you have something to do with it, just tell the slave and maid directly, what bother? Do you not torment the slave and the maid? β
The maid agreed to come down and hurriedly stepped forward to help Jiang Ying pick up the dishes and serve the soup.
The freshly boiled fish soup is thick and white. Put the tender tofu in it. Cut into thick squares, completely neat, people want to use chopsticks to clamp when they look at it, but they are afraid that the strength in their hands is too great and they will be broken into two pieces. The maid carefully took the spoon and served it. Spoonful by scoop. I didn't even break a single piece. Until the dinner table sent to the main tent and the lid was lifted, it was still in its original form.
"This soup is good to look at-" As a brain-dead fan of Jiang Ying's cooking. Before Song Yuanju started to taste, he praised unscrupulously: "Miss Jiang's cooking skills are really getting more and more exquisite!" It is...... There were too few opportunities to eat what she made. β
Jiang Ying often cooks some food, in the past, only Jin Qi was fine, and he was cheeky and could always get some light, but since Jiang Lang's other identity was lifted, the master has a 'fight for food' object, and there are very few opportunities for him to eat the food made by Jiang Ying's own hands, no matter how thick-skinned he is, he can't tolerate wolves and meat.
Don't talk about the distance, just talk about the soup in front of you...... He sits down as a foil, so he may not be able to eat.
Eh, and this dish of boiled fish with a great color.
One look at this, and then look at the dishes just served, it makes people completely lose their appetite.
These cooks in the barracks are really too amateurish, so they have to discuss with Miss Jiang when they go back, and let her take the time to point out these cooks, so as to improve the food problems of the soldiers.
Song Yuanju, who could only comfort himself with this, watched as the Xiling King Yunza, who was respected as the first honored guest, moved his first chopsticks.
"Hmm......?" Yun Za seemed to be a little surprised, moved his thick brows, and said with a bow: "It's really good." β
As the king of Xiling Kingdom, he thinks that he has eaten all kinds of delicacies and delicacies, although he is not too picky, but the quality of the things can be eaten in one bite.
The boiled fish in front of you can be said to be full of color and flavor.
"That's it." Dongzhu, who was sitting beside his father, glanced at Jiang Lang and said with a smile: "Ah Ying's craftsmanship has never been said to be bad, this is the ancestral craftsmanship of the Jiang familyββ"
Jiang Lang smiled slightly and did not speak.
It is true that his sister's craftsmanship has been many times better since he left a few years ago, but most of them are not ancestral heirlooms, but she created them herself.
Of course, these inconsequential questions do not need to be brought to the table to be explained.
Whether it's ancestral or self-created, it's all your own stuff anyway.
And listening to Song Yuanju and Dongzhu's praise from one sentence to another, what 'Jiang girl' and what 'Ah Ying', Yunzha chopsticks didn't stop, thought for a moment, and asked, "This little girl you are talking about...... But the little girl I saw today with a wounded face? β
A little girl with a wound on her face?
This impression is also straightforward enough.
Or it was about Jiang Lang, so Dong Zhu was surprisingly cautious, and did not rush to answer, but looked at Jiang Lang.
She didn't know that Jiang Lang hadn't told her father Jiang Ying's identity.
"It's her."
She didn't say anything, but someone opened her mouth to answer.
It was Jin Qi who spoke, and his tone was very calm and casual.
But there is a faint ...... Very close feeling.
Yingqiong, who had been quietly accompanying Yun Za, the king of a foreign country, had changed the color in his eyes when he heard this, and the look on his face was surprised.
This girl should be ...... The girl who was brought back last night, right?
Who is this girl?
The sudden visit of the King of Xiling shocked everyone in the camp, and he, the commander, was no exception. Out of etiquette, he naturally wanted to participate in tonight's reception banquet, but as the eldest son of the Duke of Jin, Jin Mi should have played the role of the host tonight, but because of his 'special situation'. only fell on the second son of Jin Qi.
But he felt a lot of abnormalities.
Not only is the identity of this Jiang girl frequently mentioned by several people extremely mysterious, but what makes him feel that something is wrong the most is the attitude between this Xiling King and Jin Qi - in the conversation between the two, he always feels ...... It seems to be very close.
This kind of closeness is not a verbal bias, but a kind of ...... Indescribable atmosphere.
It was supposed to be a very formal reception banquet, but from the beginning of the banquet to the present, there is not a single detail that can make him feel deliberate.
It's like ...... It's like a very casual gathering of friends and family.
General Ying's heart was full of suspicions.
Yun Za raised his eyes and looked at his nephew.
Jiang Lang also turned his head to look at him, his gaze was not too friendly.
Although it was just a simple 'it's her', the feeling that something that originally belonged to me was snatched away again......
King Xiling's gaze flickered back and forth between the two. Then he asked, "Today I heard the little girl say that she is a family member." Whose family is it? β
If it was just a family member of an ordinary soldier, it would be impossible to recognize Dongzhu and them.
Jin Qi stopped picking up the vegetables and raised his head.
When Jiang Lang saw him raise his head, a 'sense of crisis' suddenly appeared. For fear that Jin Qi would completely snatch his sister away with this opening. As soon as he turned his head, he grabbed ahead of Jin Qi and said to King Xiling: "...... My family! β
There was silence all around.
Everyone looked different. Especially General Ying's expression was the most astonishing.
That girl surnamed Jiang is actually Prince Ying's ...... "family"?!
Why have you never heard of it?
"Ah Ying is the sister of my mother's compatriots." Now that Yunza has come to the Wind Country. Jiang Lang didn't have those worries, because he didn't plan to continue to hide his brother-sister relationship with Jiang Ying, so he explained: "Today's father-in-law came suddenly, and he was busy with things at hand, so he planned to go back and find another opportunity to officially introduce her to his father-in-law." β
"This ......" General Ying couldn't help but speak, but he didn't know what to say when the words came to his lips.
Although he was shocked, in the final analysis, this matter was someone else's family affair and had nothing to do with him directly.
Prince Ying is the righteous son of the king of Xiling Kingdom, and this matter is not a secret.
But in this way, he finally figured out why the anger of purging Jiang Lang in front of the stage last night arose!
It turned out that the girl who the eldest prince 'offended' was actually the sister of one of his mother's compatriots......!
This is ...... It's really getting more and more troublesome.
"It turned out to be this little girl...... King Xiling was also a little surprised, but after thinking about it for a while, he nodded, and said with a smile: "No wonder I see that she looks a little like you between her eyebrows, it turns out that this is the case." β
Jiang Lang also smiled and said, "Ah Ying is indeed similar to me. β
It's just that he wears a mask all day long, and there aren't many people who are lucky enough to see it.
Dongzhu chimed in.
Jin Qi didn't speak, but he didn't mean to be unhappy.
However, Yunzha, after talking and laughing with Jiang Lang Dongzhu for a while, the smile on his face gradually faded, with some melancholy between his eyebrows, and said: "This girl has been alone in the Wind Country in recent years, and she has indeed endured hardships, and it is not easy. But Ah Lie, you have a special identity now, and you are in the name of the prince of Xiling to the outside world, although the people of Xiling know that you are the righteous son I accepted, but because of your appearance, no one suspects that you are not from the Xiling clan......"
Jiang Lang nodded when he heard this, just waiting for Yun Za to continue.
"This matter is very important, and it will cause criticism at the least, and public opinion will rise everywhere at the worst, and the national situation will be turbulent." Yun Za said with a fixed face: "So before the matter is absolutely properly resolved, I think I must first wronged this little girl for a while, if it is made public, I can only use the name of your righteous sister for the time being, what do you think?" β
Jiang Lang has no objection to this.
"I've talked to Ah Ying about this a long time ago, and Ah Ying has always been knowledgeable and doesn't have any opinions.
Agree to agree, and don't forget to praise my sister by the way......
I don't know what kind of mentality it is, Dongzhu looked at Jin Qi to see how he reacted.
Without taking precautions, he saw that the young man who ate the fish had a rare look of approval on his face......
Agree with what?
Definitely not let Ah Ying declare it in the name of her righteous sister? Because this method is really helpless, no one will think that it is a good way.
That is to agree with the sentence praised by Ah Lie, Ah Ying has always understood the general situation, right?
Knowing this, Dongzhu rolled her eyes and lowered her head to scoop the fish soup.
Who are these people......
Aren't you afraid of exalting people to the sky?
Dongzhu was complaining about himself, but Yun Za handed the topic to General Ying, who had always existed in a translucent state and only listened to it.
Roughly speaking, this matter is very important, and it is not appropriate for too many people to know.
Ying Qiong is a smart person, so he naturally tries his best to cooperate with the secret.
It's just that he has been loyal to the Jin family all his life, so the scope of this secret is limited.
β¦β¦
After dinner, Jiang Ying, who slipped around with Hua Changjing, went back to the tent to wash, changed into a soft middle coat and lay down on the bed, and asked Ah Ju to help change the wound medicine on her forehead and wrists.
Xiaohong stayed aside, very curious about this unfamiliar environment, looking east and west, and couldn't be honest for a while.
Jiang Ying was lying on the soft big bed, holding in her hand the miscellaneous notes of the place that Shi Qing had found to relieve her boredom, which recorded some common sense and ancient legends of the local terrain of Yunzhou.
"Girl, the military doctor has explained that he wants you to go to bed early, but you can't stay up late to bother your eyes. Will I read this book tomorrow? The maid approached and reminded in a friendly whisper.
The name of this temporary maid is Yunli, I don't know what the origin is, but since Shi Qing found it, Jiang Ying trusted it wholeheartedly. And because she is steady and careful, kind and polite, and has a very pleasant temperament, Jiang Ying listened to her words and knew that she was for her own good, so she obediently closed the book in her hand.
"Then I won't look at it." She smiled and put the book down.
Yun Li saw that she listened to her words so well, she didn't have half a noble girl to be a faction, she knew how to respect her subordinates in her words and deeds, and thought of the many harsh requirements that the master she had served before, her face continued, and she couldn't help but feel warm in her heart for a while, and she made up her mind to serve Jiang Ying, the master, in the future.
Jiang Ying didn't know the touch in her heart, and only glanced outside a few times.
Yun Li only glanced at it, then understood what she meant, covered her mouth and smiled, and said: "The second prince said earlier that he would discuss important matters with King Xiling, and come to visit the girl tomorrow. β
Being broken by humanity, Jiang Ying couldn't help but be stunned, and subconsciously looked towards Yunli.
The smile on Yun Li's face was a condensation.
What's wrong with her!
Why is she so confused, she actually speculated about her master's thoughts, this has always been the biggest taboo for a slave, hasn't she always known it?
No matter how kind the little girl in front of her is, this kind of obscure heart ...... After all, it's still not appropriate to break it in person, and whoever is afraid of it will feel that it can't be hung on the face-
Yunli's face turned pale, and when she was about to open her mouth to apologize, the little girl who was lying on the bed tilting her head to look at her laughed embarrassedly twice.
"That's right, I'll go to bed first, don't wait."
Jiang Ying turned over, pulled up the quilt and rolled herself up.
Yunli couldn't help but be stunned.
Then I couldn't help but laugh silently.
This little girl...... Why don't you have any awkward energy?
