Chapter Ninety-Six: Hugs
In the end, Murong Yumo finished the bowl full of sugar water and eggs, and he didn't even let go of the soup.
Seeing that Murong Yumo was eating happily, Gu Qingran was also extremely satisfied.
When he had finished, she took the bowl back to the kitchen.
She didn't have anything else to do, so she stayed in the kitchen and taught the kitchen lady all the desserts she knew in her head.
The eldest lady was not lazy, and seriously followed Gu Qing to learn.
But this thing probably really depends on talent, no matter how serious she is, but when she actually makes the dessert in the end, it doesn't taste very good.
Back and forth, the eldest lady also remade it several times, but in the end, the dessert in her mouth always felt a little less flavorful.
In the end, the eldest lady was about to shake her hand and give up.
Gu Qingran also thought that these desserts were originally from modern times, although she watched the eldest lady make them here, but she didn't do them well.
After thinking about it, she finally decided that she would go out in person, and swore to the eldest mother that she would be in charge of Murong Yumo's breakfast, and the eldest mother naturally responded happily.
After breakfast, Murong Yumo went to the morning court, Gu Qingran remembered what Zi'er had told her before, he usually needed a morning to go to the morning court, so she simply took advantage of this time to make some small desserts after the meal, so that he could eat them when he came back from the next court.
It's just that because ancient times are not as good as modern times, many things are missing, so desserts are naturally not as exquisite and delicious as modern ones.
However, the National Teacher's Mansion is worthy of being the National Teacher's Mansion, relatively speaking, it is not bad, at least some things can still find alternatives.
For example, the oven, Gu Qingran directly took a small red clay stove instead, so that the baked dessert exuded a strong milky aroma, which made those who were working in the kitchen curious to smell it, and the gluttonous insects were also hooked by this.
"Girl, your craftsmanship is really amazing, not only looks good, but also eats delicious, better than the dim sum in Yushanzhai in the capital. Not only is your girl good-looking, but her hands are also skillful, you say, being a servant girl suffers a lot. ”
"You listen to the eldest mother, you must take advantage of the opportunity, don't look at the national teacher and the princess have a marriage contract, but the princess is not yet in time, so you have a great chance, you are working in the national teacher's house, when the time comes, find an opportunity to follow the national teacher to be a concubine, and you can also ensure that you eat and drink spicy food."
The eldest lady held Gu Qingran's hand and whispered to her, this remark really made her a little ridiculous.
She is only temporarily living in this National Teacher's Mansion, but she will not stay here for the rest of her life, and when she has some money on her, she will naturally plan her place well, and she will not stay in this National Teacher's Mansion again.
The eldest lady said that she would be a concubine for Murong Yumo, but she didn't think about it at all.
She is still a modern person in her bones, and the concubine is a third party in modern terms, and she is not willing to be a third party.
And whether it is a concubine or a wife, she is unwilling.
She hopes to find a husband who likes each other and has a couple for the rest of her life.
After the dessert was ready, she left the kitchen and brought the dessert to Murong Yumo's study, in addition, she also prepared milk for it, but the milk she prepared was different from the one they had drunk before.
In ancient times, milk was squeezed out and eaten directly, not to mention that it had a strong taste, but even the taste of milk was not very good.
So she strained the milk several times with a special technique to remove the fishy smell from the milk.
The pastries were placed on the table where Murong Yumo was sitting, and the milk was in a glass cup.
Now this season is no better than winter, and it doesn't matter if you drink it cold or hot.
She has always had the habit of having afternoon tea in modern times, and it just so happened that today she could take advantage of the effort to prepare dim sum for Murong Yumo, and she could take the opportunity to take a few bites, and she was satisfied.
After Murong Yumo got out of the court, he went directly to the study.
As soon as I opened the door, I smelled the smell of milk.
He was stunned for a moment, walked in and took a look, and saw a plate on the desk he used in the office on weekdays, and there were a few delicate and cute steamed buns in the plate?
If Gu Qing was dyed, he would definitely tell him that this was not a steamed bun, this was a serious bread.
It's just that Murong Yumo is an ancient person, so he naturally doesn't know what bread is, but he just looks at the shape and is somewhat similar to steamed buns, so he thinks so.
He rolled up his sleeves, called the guards who were guarding outside, and asked, "Has anyone been to the study today?" ”
In the study room, there have always been guards guarding the door, and those guards also knew that Gu Qingran was brought back by the national teacher and gave her special permission, so they would let her in.
"Yes..... It's Chef Zheng of the kitchen. The guard's eyes flickered, and he hesitated for a moment before answering.
"Well, step aside."
Murong Yumo nodded, and the guards saluted and returned to their posts.
He walked over, picked up the small steamed buns on the plate, took a bite, a pair of Danfeng eyes narrowed slightly, his face was full of enjoyment, and when a steamed bun was in his stomach, he shook his head and chuckled, "At the level of Chef Zheng, can you make such delicious food?" ”
The steamed bun is fluffy and soft, with a golden yellow color, and the milk that Gu Qingran originally prepared just neutralizes its shortcomings of too dry taste.
Murong Yumo took a sip of milk from the glass cup, raised his eyebrows, and was a little surprised, this milk was not like the one he thought he was drinking, it didn't smell fishy at all, but it was much more delicious than before.
A mouthful of steamed bread and a mouthful of milk, several steamed buns on the plate were quickly eaten by him.
When he subconsciously reached out again, he only touched the empty plate.
He was slightly stunned, then smiled.
He loves sweetness.
Therefore, as long as it is sweet, he can't help but want to taste it.
It's just that none of those meals are like this time, so he can't stop eating, and even finishes eating, and wants to eat again.
That little girl, if she really pushed everything on Chef Zheng, he wouldn't know, presumably the guards just now also told her to say so.
Chef Zheng has been cooking for him for so many years, is it possible that he really can't taste it? No matter how much a person's craft changes, it will not change so much.
Murong Yumo rubbed his stomach and looked up at the sky outside the eaves, it was still early, he pondered for a moment, then stood up and walked out.
The place where Gu Qingran lives now is called Linlang Pavilion.
Murong Yumo originally wanted to come out for a walk, but as he walked, he came to the gate of Linlang Pavilion.
Standing in the doorway, you can hear the laughter coming from inside.
"Master National Teacher, do you need a slave to go in and report it?"
The entourage who followed Murong Yumo asked.
Murong Yumo stretched out his hand to stop it.
The courtyard door is only lightly concealed there, and it can be pushed open with a push.
The attendant pushed open the door, and Murong Yumo saw several maids gathered in the courtyard at a glance.
In the midst of them stood a woman of stunning beauty and generous manners.
Closer in, the woman could be heard smiling, "Are you ready?" It's time to begin. ”
Then I heard the maids all speak in unison, "Okay." ”
"Throw the handkerchief, throw the handkerchief, gently put it behind you, and don't tell her." Gu Qingran walked behind the maids, walked in a circle, and then threw the handkerchief behind Zi'er.
After throwing it, he still winked at the other maids, and walked slowly, waiting for when Zi'er would find out.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Zi'er instantly came to her senses, and turned her head to see that the handkerchief was behind her.
She picked up the handkerchief, pursed her lips and smiled, and then chased after Gu Qingran.
Gu Qingran ran in front, Zi'er chased behind, and the other maids laughed together.
Murong Yumo looked at this scene, and unconsciously raised his lips and smiled, it seems that such a lively National Teacher's Mansion has not appeared for a long time.
"Come on, come on, come and get me."
Gu Qingran turned around and provoked Zi'er, who chased after her fiercely when she saw this.
Gu Qingran kept running forward, her mind was on Zi'er, and she didn't notice that there was a person standing in front of her.
Caught off guard, she crashed into it.
For a while, there was silence.
Zi'er, who was still chasing Gu Qingran, also stopped, and several other maids stepped forward and made a gesture to salute Murong Yumo.
When a few people saw the national teacher, their hearts suddenly became frightened, could it be that they were all seen by the national teacher just now?
Thinking of this, his face instantly turned pale, and he was afraid that he would be punished by the national teacher.
As a result, Murong Yumo just waved his hand, signaling that they didn't need to be polite, and didn't say anything more.
Gu Qingran hugged the person, and some didn't react back, and put his hands on the other party's chest.
She slowly looked up at the man he was holding.
Isn't it Murong Yumo?
Gu Qingran hurriedly let go of her hand in fright, her pretty face turned red, and she didn't know what to do.
She laughed awkwardly twice, and slowly stepped back.
Murong Yumo's expression was as usual, and he just asked with a smile: "It seems that you are living much better in the mansion than I thought, and you can get along with the people in the mansion." What kind of fun game do you seem to be playing? ”
Gu Qingran, who felt embarrassed in his heart, lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him, but when he heard his question, and saw that he didn't seem to take what he had just done to heart, the embarrassment was a little less.
So she smiled and said, "It's nothing, the main thing is that it's too boring, so I'll play a game of handkerchiefs with everyone." ”
"It seems like a lot of fun to see you guys playing."
Gu Qingran twitched the corners of her mouth and asked, "Could it be that you want to come along?" ”
"What? Won't I bring it? Murong Yumo asked with a smile.
This time it was Gu Qingran's turn to be surprised, in fact, it didn't mean that he couldn't play it, but the game of throwing handkerchiefs was really too feminine for men.
It's just that she doesn't know whether to say it directly.
She thought for a moment in embarrassment, her eyes lit up, and she thought of another way, "We just threw the handkerchief, our number is just right, it's better like this, let's change the game, um~ It's called a wooden man, don't move." ”
Murong Yumo nodded in agreement.
As for the rest of the maids, seeing that Murong Yumo agreed, how could they still refuse.
After all, the national teacher has always been serious in the crowd, and now he will take the initiative to play with them. This is really like a fantasy for everyone.
Gu Qingran first told everyone the rules of the game, and then several people cut rock-paper-scissors and singled out one person to blindfold him.
The last person to be picked out was Murong Yumo, and the maid blindfolded his eyes with a handkerchief, and then let him turn around in place three times, and the game officially began.
Before he opened his mouth to talk about wooden people, people can move, but they can't go out of the prescribed circle.
Gu Qingran and the maids began to walk around.
Murong Yumo pricked up his ears, carefully distinguished, and then spoke: "Wooden man, don't move." ”
As soon as his words fell, they could no longer move, but stopped where they were.
Just when he said to stop, Gu Qingran walked to the position behind him.
Murong Yumo didn't move immediately, but turned his head around, as if he was discerning the position.
Then, I saw him turn around and slowly walk towards the place where Gu Qingran was standing.
Gu Qingran squatted down and wanted to avoid his touch, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, he quickly grabbed her arm in his hand, "Caught it, let me guess who you are and who it will be?" It should be Miss Gu, right? ”
"Yes, it's me." Gu Qingran was grabbed by his arm, and he couldn't break free, so he could only admit it.
After that, he played twice, and every time Murong Yumo caught someone, it was Gu Qingran who was caught.
This made Gu Qingran a little suspicious, did he put something on her, and he could catch her so accurately every time and recognize her.
And at this time, the eyes of those maids looking at her and Murong Yumo were no longer simple.
If once or twice can be said to be a coincidence, what about the third time.
The mouths of the next people are stupid and broken, today's scene, there are not a few people who see it, when the time comes, they go out and talk to others, one spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and the more outrageous it will be.
It is estimated that she will also say that she borrowed to live in the National Teacher's Mansion, but she turned around and hooked up with the National Teacher.
"It's boring, it's me every time, I don't play anymore."
Gu Qingran shook his hand and walked to the side.
Murong Yumo couldn't help but laugh a little, and walked up to her, "What?" I've been caught every time, so I'm not happy? ”
"How could I be unhappy." Gu Qing dyed the dead duck with a hard mouth, but he refused to admit it.
"The little steamed buns are delicious."
Murong Yumo said a word to the horse's mouth.
Gu Qingran stopped his steps, turned his head sideways, looked at him, and said seriously: "That's bread." ”
He almost couldn't hold back his laughter, little girl, it's quite serious.
"Okay, but it seems a little inappropriate for you to make pastries, so it seems that the credit is attributed to Chef Zheng, Chef Zheng has made pastries for me for so many years, and I am not stupid, how can I not taste it."
Gu Qingran was stunned for a moment, and when she saw that it was exposed, she simply admitted, "The pastry is indeed not wrong with what I did, but Chef Zheng also helped a lot, so it is not unreasonable for me to say that she made it." Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to make such delicious pastries on my own. ”
"Okay, Chef Zheng also has merit, don't worry, I will never treat her badly, and her reward is indispensable. But those pastries you make seem to be much better than what I used to eat, and there is something special, I'm a little curious, I don't know how you made it? ”
"Oh, that's, it's simple, do you want to learn? I can give you everything I will. ”
Murong Yumo took a sip, "This is natural, otherwise, when you leave later, won't I be able to eat such a delicious pastry." ”
