054 Wash your hands and make soup for the national teacher

Wuxian Gongzi handed the glass cup filled with rose dew to Lu Nianjin, Lu Nianjin took it, held it in the palm of his hand, lowered his head, and sipped it slowly.

"Since you're so scared, why don't you let Mama Qin keep vigil?" Wuxian Gongzi fetched water and asked while helping her wipe her wounds with a handkerchief.

Lu Nianjin couldn't stand the pain, "Hey", looked at him resentfully, and said, "It's too heavy, you light." ”

Listening to her complaining about the pain, Wuxian's eyes deepened, and he said in an accentuated tone, "Shut up." ”

Lu Nianjin heard him reprimand himself sharply, and his heart suddenly became aggrieved, his red eyes blinked, and Chu Chu said pitifully, "I fell like this, you still murder me!" ”

Wuxian took a deep breath, "...... This seat is not to kill you. ”

"You are!" Lu Nianjin suddenly became fragile and arrogant, his round and white chin was raised, and he stared at him fiercely.

Wuxian Gongzi looked at her like this, and he understood, Lu Nianjin, who was frightened and emotionally unstable, was like a willful child, eating soft and not hard, you can only coax her, you can't reprimand her, otherwise she will turn her face with you.

"It's the fault of this seat, and this seat shouldn't have murdered you." After thinking about it, he looked at her and said good-naturedly.

Lu Nianjin pursed his lips when he saw him apologize, and sure enough, he didn't care anymore.

Wuxian Gongzi couldn't help it, raised his hand again and touched her heart, and after calming her down, he continued to help her with medicine.

After taking the medicine, Lu Nianjin's mood also stabilized, and she couldn't help but raise her hand and yawn.

Seeing this, Wuxian Gongzi put away the medicine bottle and said, "Since you are sleepy, go to the bed and sleep for a while, it is still early, you can sleep at ease, this seat will guard you." ”

“…… Well. Lu Nianjin frowned and thought for a while, in the end, he compromised for the sake of the flesh and blood in his abdomen.

She lay flat on the bamboo couch and slowly closed her eyes.

Wuxian Gongzi sat down beside her and gently held her hand, as if in this way, he could transfer his power to her.

Xu is there are people around him, and Lu Nianjin slept peacefully in the second half of the night, without any more fright, and no nightmares.

When she opened her eyes at dawn, she didn't even know what it was.

The two looked at each other, looking at each other, her face stiffened, and she couldn't help but ask dumbly, "Why is the national teacher here?" ”

Wuxian Gongzi's cold and waveless eyes drooped slightly, fell on the hands of the two of them who were still holding together, lightly opened his thin lips, and said word by word, "Last night, it was you who found the study to cry in front of this seat, and you also wanted to stay in the study by yourself, and after falling asleep, you held the hand of this seat and did not let go." ”

"Yes, yes?" Lu Nianjin was a little incredulous, she tried to think back to what happened last night, but she couldn't remember anything.

Seeing that she frowned and held her head, but she couldn't remember anything, her tone became even more firm, "Yes!" ”

"......" Lu Nianjin listened to his affirmation, her eyebrows frowned even tighter, she only felt uncomfortable, she hurriedly let go of his hand, and said in a calm voice, "It's me who is the national teacher." ”

Wuxian didn't speak again, just looked at her with a light gaze.

"Can the national teacher go out for a while and let me get up?" The two were at a stalemate for a while, and Lu Nianjin said to the unenvy son.

The unenvy boy bowed his head, got up and walked out.

After Lu Nianjin went out, she thought about it with annoyance on her face for a while, but no matter what she thought, she just couldn't remember what happened last night, as if her brain turned on self-protection and emptied all the memories she didn't want to remember.

Sighing silently, she slowly changed her clothes and washed, and it took half an hour of work to take care of it, straighten her back and walk out.

Outside, the boy was waiting behind his desk.

Seeing her come out, he stood up and said, "Now that we've washed up, let's go out for breakfast together." ”

Lu Nianjin nodded, and the two walked out together.

In the hall, Bing and Mama Qin had already set up the meal, and when they saw her come in, Mama Qin raised her head and glanced at her with some resentment.

Lu Nianjin knew that Mama Qin was blaming her, but she really couldn't remember what happened last night, and she couldn't explain it, so she could only look at her and smile apologetically.

When Mama Qin saw her girl smiling at herself, the dissatisfaction in her stomach instantly dissipated, and she couldn't bear to blame her anymore, so she eased her face, smiled softly at her, and said, "Girl, let's have breakfast, it's all what you like to eat." ”

Lu Nianjin looked at the table and saw that there were no less than ten kinds of breakfast on it, all of which she liked to eat, especially the steamed dumplings with corn mushrooms, and the boiled flower rouge rice porridge that had been oiled.

"National teacher, please." She looked at Wuxian Boy very uncomfortably and asked him to sit down first.

Only when he was seated did he sit down opposite him.

There was nothing to say during the banquet, Mama Qin gave her vegetables, and Bing should give vegetables to Wuxian Gongzi.

Both of them quietly chewed the breakfast in front of them, until they put down their chopsticks one after another, wiped their hands with a handkerchief, and rinsed their mouths, and then Wuxian Gongzi looked at her and said, "If the princess is fine, I will go to the study with this seat to read the accounts!" ”

Lu Nianjin thought that he had shaken his hand all night, and where was he willing to be in the same room with him, he immediately raised his head and said, "I don't like to settle accounts." ”

After a pause, seeing that his face sank, she added weakly, "However, I won't live here in vain, and I will cook three meals a day for the national teacher in the future." ”

Wuxian Gongzi originally wanted to find something for her to do, so that she could sleep more soundly at night and no longer be disturbed by nightmares. In his eyes, there was no difference between settling accounts and cooking, so he thought about it for a moment. I agreed.

Lu Nianjin was also relieved when he heard him agree.

"In that case, I'll go to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients for lunch first." She stood up and said to him.

Wuxian Gongzi bowed his head, then turned his gaze, and looked at Bing and Mama Qin.

Both of them are clever and immediately understand. Bing took a step forward and promised, "Uncle Shi, don't worry, I will definitely not let the crown princess suffer." ”

Wuxian Gongzi was shocked by what he said, his face turned cold again, and he walked out without looking back.

Bing watched his uncle leave, frowned and scratched his head, and asked Mama Qin, "Did I say the wrong thing?" ”

Mama Qin smiled, "That's right, that's right, what you said is very good." ”

"I think too!" Bing was happy and happily contracted the work of cleaning up the table.

Mama Qin accompanied Lu Nianjin and walked out.

"Girl, what the hell do you think, why don't you do such an easy job of checking accounts, and you have to cook!" On the way, Mama Qin asked Lu Nianjin puzzled.

Lu Nianjin smiled stiffly and explained, "It's not a question of whether it's easy or not, it's a question of me and the national teacher...... In the end, it is really inappropriate for men and women to be different and in the same room. ”

Hearing Lu Nianjin say this, Mama Qin lowered her head and thought about it, one is the widowed Princess Huaide, and the other is an unmarried national teacher like a fairy, and it is really not good to be in the same room.

With that, the two of them had already walked to the kitchen outside the bamboo building.

Lu Nianjin pushed the door in, looked around, and nodded, "The place is big, the windows are bright and clean, and the stove is complete, which is good." ”

Mama Qin also felt the same, she smiled and echoed in Lu Nianjin's ear, "The old slave looked at it coldly, this kitchen is not much worse than the big kitchen of our Prince's Mansion. ”

The two were talking, and suddenly there was a sound of water splashing in the water tank, and Lu Nianjin's eyes lit up, "Could it be a fish?" ”

Mama Qin felt that it was impossible, "The bamboo building is the place of the Great Ci'en Temple, and the national teacher should not be taboo!" ”

"This is not a taboo," Bing's voice suddenly sounded, and he carried the food box into the kitchen while explaining to Mama Qin, "Uncle Shi is an exception in the Great Ci'en Temple, he was not in good health when he was a child, and the abbot of Wuwei was afraid that he would not be able to support him, so he made an exception and set a rule for him to eat meat dishes once every three days." ”

"I see." Mama Qin understood, paused, and leaned closer to Bing to ask, "Then our crown princess is a guest of the national teacher, can we also eat fish with the national teacher?" ”

Bing thought for a while, "I'm afraid I'll have to ask Uncle Shi and Abbot Wuwei." ”

"Then go and ask, I'll help you clean up these cups and dishes." Mama Qin said, and took the food box in his hand.

Bing and Mama Qin worked together for two days, and there was also a bit of face between the two, listening to her urging, they didn't shirk it, and said directly, "Okay, then I'll ask." ”

On the side, Lu Nianjin saw that Bing ran out and did not stop him.

She is hindered by the rules and precepts of the Great Ci'en Temple, it is okay not to eat meat, only vegetarian, but the problem is that she still has a child in her womb, and the mortality rate of children in ancient times is so high, if the nutrition that should be supplemented is not enough, she is really worried that the child will have something short......

Fortunately, in less than a quarter of an hour, Bing came back with good news, saying that she was a guest of the unenvy son, and the diet followed the unenvy son.

When Lu Nianjin heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Later, she sorted out the meat and vegetarian ingredients in the kitchen, wrote a list for Bing, and when he sent someone into the city to purchase all the ingredients she needed.

In the past, when she was in the prince's mansion, she was hindered by Meng Qingting, and she didn't dare to let Mama Qin cook the dishes she wanted to eat once, just for fear of being seen and revealing the news, but now in the bamboo building, she has no such concerns at all, she can see that the people under the Wuxian Gongzi are all strict-mouthed, except for the master of the Wuxian Gongzi, no one can pry their mouths open, so no matter what dishes she makes, it will not be passed on to the outside.

Bing called the dead man with the best foot journey to go down the mountain to buy condiments, and when the dead man came back, it was just in time for Lu Nianjin.

She knew that Wuxian Gongzi liked spicy food, so the first dish she cooked, four of the five dishes were spicy, boiled fish, spicy chicken, salt-fried pork, mapo tofu, and the last dish Wensi tofu.

After the dishes were served, as soon as Wuxian Gongzi entered the hall, he smelled a fragrant and spicy smell, his nose fluttered, and before he tasted Lu Nianjin's cooking skills, his index fingers were already moving.

"Uncle Shi, sit down and taste it, these are the princess's crafts, all of them are the spicy flavors you like." Bing is like Lu Nianjin's brainless fan, trying his best to sell it to his uncle.

After Wuxian Gongzi sat down, he first looked at the spicy chicken closest to him, Bing had always had eyes, and immediately rushed over with chopsticks.

Wuxian Gongzi put the crispy, red diced chicken into his mouth and chewed it slowly.

"Uncle Shi, how is it?" Bibi asked urgently.

Wuxian Gongzi had a flash of surprise in his heart, but there was no expression on his face, he just nodded lightly, "It's okay." ”

"Is it just okay?"

Bing was a little disappointed, these dishes Mama Qin also tasted for him, and they were obviously extremely delicious, how did they get into the mouth of his uncle, and they became Shang Ke.

But there was no response to his words, and he looked at another plate of boiled live fish.

Bing hurriedly grabbed another piece of chopsticks with snow-white and tender fish fillets hanging with chili oil.

"Uncle Shi, how about this dish?" As soon as the unenvy boy swallowed it, he immediately couldn't wait to ask.

"Not bad." Wuxian Gongzi nodded slightly, his expression loosening. He didn't expect that Lu Nianjin's cooking skills would be so good, and he didn't seem to have seen these ingredients before.

So, after tasting the leftover salt-fried pork, mapo tofu and Wensi tofu, he asked, "I wonder where the princess got these ingredients?" ”

Lu Nianjin didn't hide it, "Actually, at first, these were all medicinal materials, and I didn't think that they could be used in dishes, until a new spice shop opened in the east of the city...... I just tried to cook with them, but I didn't expect them to be surprisingly delicious. It just so happens that I know that the national teacher likes spicy food, so I'll make it for you today. ”

"Do you know that this seat likes spicy food?" Wuxian Gongzi suddenly looked up at her and asked in a deep voice.

Lu Nianjin nodded, "Well, when I entered the palace for the first time, the queen mother mentioned to me that the national teacher likes spicy food, so I wrote it down." ”

The first time I knew, I remembered it until now, and the mood of the unenvious son was inexplicably better.

He put down his chopsticks, glanced at Lu Nianjin again, and said, "The crown princess's cooking skills are very good." ”

"Thank you for the praise."

……

In the bamboo building here, Lu Nianjin's fear has slowly improved because he started cooking, and on the other side, the early court, as soon as the four princes Xiao Ze presented the folds and account books the day before were circulated, the Manchu Dynasty was in an uproar.

Especially the head of the household, he is over 70 years old, and he has been doing accounting for so many years, and he never thought that one day, he would be able to see such a simple and clear accounting method, and tears of excitement flowed out.

He couldn't put it down, and his eyes lit up for a long time before he remembered to ask the emperor, "Can the saint tell the old minister, who reformed such a new bookkeeping method?" ”

When the emperor heard Hubu Shangshu ask, his eyes turned, he looked at Meng Liang, the Qing of Guanglu Temple, muttered for a moment, and said, "It is the eldest daughter of the Meng family of Guanglu Temple." ”

"It's Miss Meng?!" Hubu Shangshu was shocked, he really didn't expect that Meng Qingting, a female streamer, would be able to innovate the bookkeeping method that had been used for hundreds of years, but soon, he praised Meng Qingting in heaven and earth, and asked the emperor to reward Meng Qingting, the first talented woman in the capital.

As soon as he exited, the civil and military officials of the Manjin Luan Palace also echoed, after all, there are also a lot of shops under their names, if this new accounting method is promoted, then when they check the accounts in the future, it will be much easier, it originally took a month of effort, but now it only takes four or five days to get it.

The emperor looked at the civil and military officials who knelt under His Royal Highness and begged for Meng Qingting's reward, but his heart was a little complicated, he was silent for a long time before he suppressed the sullenness in his heart, and said, "Guanglu Temple Qing Meng Liang taught her daughter a good way, reformed the accounting method, and Ze was the world, from now on, Meng Liang will be named An Lebo, and the eldest daughter of the Meng family will be the county lord of Wensi." ”

Meng Liang was completely defenseless, listening to the emperor's holy decree and reward, he only felt as if two pies had fallen from the sky, and they smashed on his head, and he couldn't relax for a long time.

In the end, it was the officials around him who reminded him to accept the order to thank him, so he took two steps to the side like a comer, knelt down and said, "Weichen Meng Liang thanks Lord Longen, thank the emperor for his love." ”

"Meng Aiqing doesn't have to be polite, you teach your daughter well, this is what Miss Meng and you deserve." The emperor said in a deep voice.

Meng Liang, that is, the newly baked An Lebo, heard it again, and expressed his loyalty.

The emperor didn't like to listen to these words for a long time, he waved his hand, and asked Meng Liang to step back, and then instructed the household department to be sure to promote this accounting method as soon as possible.

Naturally, Hubu Shangshu was excited to respond, saying that after he returned, he would put the promotion of this new type of accounting method on the agenda.

The bamboo building on the mountain behind the Great Mercy and Grace Temple.

By the time Lu Nianjin learned about this from Bing, it had been several days later.

Originally, she was just on guard against Meng Qingting, and she didn't have any resentment, so whether Meng Qingting was given to marry Xiao Ze, the fourth prince, or came up with a new accounting method and was named the county lord, she didn't have any dissatisfaction.

When I heard it, I didn't care.

But more than a month later, another piece of news reached her ears through Bing.

A few days ago, a five-story restaurant called Wisteria Mansion suddenly appeared in the capital, the decoration of the restaurant was extremely luxurious, not only a place to eat, but even a place to have fun and stay, and some of the dishes it produced were many more repeated than what she made a few days ago.

As soon as Lu Nianjin heard Bing's words, she knew that Meng Qingting's imitation of her grandfather's restaurant had opened.

At this time, she couldn't sit still anymore, and went directly to the study to find Wuxian Gongzi, and said with a solemn face, "National teacher, I want to go down the mountain." ”

She said "want", not "want", and her attitude was unusually resolute.

Wuxian Gongzi also heard it, he put down the newspaper in his hand, raised his head, and looked at her, "Can you tell me the reason?" ”

Lu Nianjin said, "Actually, it's nothing, I just heard Bing say that a new restaurant called Wisteria Mansion has recently opened in Beijing, and I want to take a look." ”

"In that case, I will go with you."

Lu Nianjin was surprised, "The national teacher is with me?" ”

Wuxian Gongzi nodded, and said with a serious face, "Well, with this seat following, Xuanyi and Laichen will be more dedicated." ”

Lu Nianjin heard her say this, but he was a little skeptical, "Really? ”

Why does she think that Xuanyi is not that kind of person!

"Yes!" Wuxian Gongzi said with an affirmative face.

Suddenly, he was afraid that Lu Nianjin would insist on going his own way, so he had to refuse him, and added, "Otherwise, don't go...... After all, this seat promised the queen that I must protect you thoroughly. ”

In order to find out the details of Meng Qingting, Lu Nianjin had to grit his teeth and compromise, "Let's go!" ”

Wuxian Gongzi nodded, and then, he looked out and called "Laichen".

Laichen immediately appeared, and arched his hand towards the unenvy prince behind the desk, "My subordinates are here, I don't know what the national teacher commands?" ”

The prince of Wuxian glanced at him and ordered, "Go and prepare the carriage, this seat is going to the crown princess to return to the city." ”

"Yes, master, my subordinates will go and prepare!" As soon as he spoke, he retreated unconsciously.

Half an hour later, Lu Nianjin and Wuxian Gongzi only took Xuan Yi on their faces and went down the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, there was already a carriage waiting, and it was the car driven by Laichen himself.

Because there was no ladder under the car, Lu Nianjin couldn't go up at all, so he could only look at Wuxian Gongzi, who glanced at her and raised one arm.

Lu Nianjin was also not polite, and directly helped his hand to get into the car.

After she got into the carriage, Wuxian Gongzi also followed into the car.

As soon as the two of them sat down, the retainers threw up their horsewhips and hurried towards the city.

An hour and a half later, the carriage entered the city, and when it came to the fork in the road, the minister stopped for a moment, turned back and asked, "Master, do you want to go back to the master's mansion or to the prince's mansion?" ”

Wuxian Gongzi's voice was cold, and he said in a low voice, "Go to the newly opened Wisteria Mansion Restaurant in the east of the city." ”

When the minister heard this, he turned around and went to the east of the city.

Two quarters of an hour later, the carriage stopped again, and Laichen jumped out of the carriage and stood side by side with Xuanyi, "Master, the Wisteria Mansion Restaurant has arrived." As he spoke, he reached out and lifted the curtain.

Wuxian Gongzi was dressed in a white plain suit and wore a white jade crown, like a fairy, and got out of the car first.

Lu Nianjin supported his two arms and was carried out of the car by him.

After landing, his own buddies helped him park the car, and Lu Nianjin raised his head and looked at the restaurant rising from the ground in front of him.

Resemble! It's so similar! Just looking at the appearance of this restaurant, she really looks like she is standing outside the modern Wisteria Mansion Restaurant, and even the welcome lady outside the restaurant is a girl in a purple dress.

"Master, please!" Lu Nianjin was distracted, and suddenly, Laichen's deep voice interrupted her contemplation.

She came back to her senses a little gloomily, glanced at the unenvy child, and said, "Let's go in!" ”

"Hmm." Wuxian Gongzi answered coldly, and the two walked in side by side.

When she arrived at the hall on the first floor, Lu Nianjin pulled out of her memories, and in the distance, a woman as gentle as water walked towards her, and after stopping in front of her, she said politely, "Are you two?" ”

Lu Nianjin nodded.

The woman asked, "Then I wonder which box you two want to sit in?" As she spoke, she clapped her hands, and a maid stepped forward to hand over the name of the box that could still pick up customers.

Lu Nianjin took it, glanced at it, and said, "Yingchun Pavilion." ”

Compared with several other boxes, the location of the Spring Pavilion can be a little more central, and she likes this location.

After choosing the box, the woman took her in the direction of the Spring Pavilion.

Entering the Yingchun Pavilion, she took a very exquisite recipe from the maid's hand, handed it over, and said with a smile, "Two distinguished guests, this is a recipe formulated by our host himself, you two take a look, what do you want to use?" ”

Lu Nianjin opened the menu and took a look, and sure enough, as Bing said, half of the dishes in it had been cooked in the bamboo building.

"Order first, see what you want to eat." After Lu Nianjin finished the menu, he didn't order, but handed it to Wuxian Gongzi.
