Chapter 337: More than every year
When it was time for lunch, Xiao Zhuyu ordered Luoshui to bring barbecue and some other dishes, Mrs. Xue was also extremely satisfied when she saw Luoshui, and then looked at Xue Bolian and said: "Lian'er, the girl you found this time is extremely good, quite neat." ”
Xiao Zhuyu sat on the side of the desk at this time, "This barbecue is roasted by her daughter-in-law, and the rest is made by Luoshui according to what is written on her daughter-in-law's recipe. ”
Xue Bolian looked at the barbecue on the table and couldn't help frowning: "Why are there two servings of barbecue?" ”
Xiao Zhuyu said: "Adults don't like spicy food, so I just put a little chili oil in a plate, if I don't put anything, it will lack some taste." ”
Mrs. Xue looked at another plate of barbecue with a lot of chili peppers and hot sauce, "You kid, the old slave told you a long time ago, let you eat less spicy food, you won't listen." ”
Xiao Zhuyu's eyes rolled and said, "Even if the daughter-in-law doesn't eat it, the mother has to eat it." ”
Mrs. Xue really couldn't cry or laugh when she heard Xiao Zhuyu's words, "You kid...... I really don't know what the old slave says about you. ”
"However, although the spicy ones are delicious, the daughter-in-law still hopes that her mother will eat more light ones."
After that, Xiao Zhuyu sandwiched some vegetables and the like for Mrs. Xue, the daughter-in-law and the mother are extremely harmonious together, but Xue Bolian seems a little redundant here, and after the two of them sat down, Xue Bolian said to Mrs. Xue: "Mother, the emperor asked Xiao'er to go to the palace for the New Year, so ...... Only you and Yu'er are left at home. ”
"Oh? The emperor actually wants you to go to the palace for the New Year? This is a strange anecdote, saying that the emperor's own brother is not invited, why did he invite you? ”
Xue Bolian just smiled and said, "Maybe it's because his so-called brothers are not as good as Xiao'er." ”
In fact, Xue Bolian also thought about it for a long time, and it was probably not the emperor's intention to let him spend the New Year in the palace, after all, although the four princes were grounded, he could still go to various places in the palace, if it weren't for the fact that the emperor and the four princes were very stiff during this time, the emperor would not let him enter the palace to accompany him for the New Year, maybe this was just a cover, but Xue Bolian did not say anything about this matter, but Mrs. Xue said: "Hi! Anyway, on weekdays, you rarely accompany the old slave and Yu'er in the house, and the old slave has become accustomed to it during this time. ”
Xiao Zhuyu was eating the barbecue extremely hard, especially the braised fish, the taste was really delicious, and suddenly heard Mrs. Xue's words, so she raised her head and said: "Mother, are you too worried, maybe the emperor let the adults go to the palace for the New Year like this, it must be to protect the emperor, after all, there is a fourth prince by the emperor's side, this person is like a time bomb......
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Xue heard an unfamiliar word, "What?" Time bomb? ”
"Uh...... That's it, how to say it? It's like gunpowder, but it explodes in an hour, or a stick of incense, but when it explodes, it depends on how the person using the gunpowder controls it. ”
Mrs. Xue finally understood what Xiao Zhuyu said, "Didn't you hear that these four princes have long lost their military power?" How can he stand up to the wind and rain alone? ”
"There is a case in everything, in short, if the fourth prince, the third prince, the second prince and Chen Yang are not caught, they must not relax." Xue Bolian didn't know how Xiao Zhuyu could think of this, but he just followed Xiao Zhuyu's words.
Xiao Zhuyu was indeed just talking casually, but looking at Xue Bolian's serious and serious expression, it seemed that she must have said it right, but she was focusing all her attention on the food on this case at the moment.
Mrs. Xue said: "Your father died early, before your child was born, you are still the only bloodline in the Xue family, after you enter the palace this time, you must pay attention to safety." ”
"Mother, you can rest assured, the child will definitely pay attention."
After hearing this, Mrs. Xue's heart is also a little better, she is a woman who naturally can't manage these government affairs, since her son became the prime minister, he has become very busy, and he has to revolve around the emperor every day, if one day the emperor is unhappy, it will affect the entire Xue family.
On the day of the New Year, Xiao Zhuyu made a lot of rice cakes, and Luoshui looked at Xiao Zhuyu so diligently and said: "Madam, these are all made by slaves and maids, you just have to take care of them." ”
"In fact, a lot of rice cakes have been made before, but this time the rice cakes are different from the previous ones, they are all made by Mrs. Ben herself, and," Xiao Zhuyu tasted a piece and said, "The soft and glutinous ones are extremely delicious, don't believe it, you can taste a piece." With that, he handed a piece to the drowning.
When he saw it, he immediately said, "No, the slave doesn't dare." ”
"Hey! What's this, this rice cake is made by Mrs. Ben herself, who does Mrs. Ben want to eat, does it need to be approved by anyone? ”
Since Xiao Zhuyu said so, this falling water had no choice but to be respectful and obedient, and after taking a bite, he felt extremely good, "Madame's craftsmanship is indeed good, and such a delicious rice cake slave has never eaten it." ”
"If you like it, Mrs. Ben will do more and send it to your family."
"The slave doesn't dare, the lady has already let the slave and the maid taste a piece of rice cake, which is very good, and the slave and maid don't dare to ask too much."
Xiao Zhuyu just smiled, "What's this?" Although you and I are both master and servant, Mrs. Ben doesn't want to be so unfamiliar, otherwise it would be too lonely to stay alone in this prime minister's mansion, and this prime minister is also working for the emperor all year round on weekdays, and he goes home very rarely. ”
Naturally, Xiao Zhuyu didn't say much, Xiao Zhuyu continued: "What about you, just stay in the mansion, if Mrs. Ben has anything good, naturally your share is indispensable." ”
"Thank you, ma'am."
After Xiao Zhuyu finished speaking, he left, and the falling water also followed Xiao Zhuyu, "Anyway, madam, you have done so much, can you finish this?" ”
"The New Year's is more than a year, and besides, Mrs. Ben has to leave a little for the adult, and he will have something to eat after he returns."
"Oh."
So he didn't ask anything.
Xue Bolian has entered the palace early this morning, and the emperor and Xue Bolian only have two things in the palace, the first is that the two of them learn martial arts; The second is to sit together and play chess.
