Chapter 697: Calling the Shots for You

She hurriedly handed the white moon porcelain cup in her arms to Xing'er, and carefully instructed her to keep it well.

"Now sister, the anger in your heart is gone?" Gu Mingzhu looked at Lan Shi with bright eyes and asked softly.

"When you first come to the General's Mansion, if there is a place where slaves and maids are not properly served, you can warn me, and I will definitely be the master for you." Gu Mingzhu said quite generously.

Hearing this, Lan's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly attached himself and thanked him, "Thank you, sister." ”

"Sit down." Gu Mingzhu saw that the Lan clan was standing restrained, and commanded softly.

At this time, Lan sat down slowly, a complicated look flashed in her eyes, she cautiously glanced in the direction of Gu Mingzhu, but found that her expression was indifferent.

Seeing this, she retreated and said, "I don't have anything important, so I'll retire first." ”

Since the Lan family was leaving, Gu Mingzhu didn't mean to leave her, she bowed her head slightly and said, "Hmm." ”

Then Lan stepped out of the chamber with broken steps.

After the people left, Qiao'er frowned and said worriedly: "That pair of fine white jade porcelain cups was given to Mrs. by the general, how can you give it to the Lan family?" ”

"It's just an object, and if you give it, you give it." Gu Mingzhu had a calm face, and said with a faint expression.

"Madame's pair of white jade porcelain cups are excellent objects, valuable and valuable, even the general is reluctant to use them, so I will reward them to you, Madame." Qiao'er frowned, looking unwilling.

"If the general knows, maybe it's time to be angry with his wife again." Qiao'er said with a frown.

"The general is tolerant and generous, and he will definitely not bother with me." Gu Mingzhu put down the teacup in his hand and said casually.

However, Qiao'er did not believe it.

At this time, Gu Mingzhu picked up the embroidery needle again, and looked at the robe in his hand with a focused expression.

Seeing this, Qiao'er couldn't bear to be disturbed, turned around and walked out.

In the backyard.

Lan stepped into the chamber and dismissed the slaves and maids waiting in the chamber.

"Madame is really generous, and she actually rewarded the little master with the fine white jade porcelain cup." Xing'er carefully placed the pair of white jade porcelain cups on the table and said softly.

Looking at the pair of white porcelain cups in front of him, Lan's delicate cheeks hooked up with a light smile: "I thought Gu Mingzhu was a narrow-minded person, but I didn't want to be so generous." ”

"It is said that the general's wife is casual by nature and does whatever she wants, is it true that she is a pure-hearted person with few desires?" Apricot had a puzzled look on her crumpled little face.

Hearing this, the corners of Lan's mouth hooked up a mocking smile: "I don't believe that Gu Mingzhu is really so simple and harmless, it's just a deceitful thing." ”

"What do you mean, little lord?" Xing'er asked in surprise.

"Put away this pair of white jade porcelain cups." Lan lowered his eyes and glanced at the pair of white jade porcelain cups, and commanded softly.

"Yes." Xing'er hurriedly replied respectfully.

Then a slave came in from outside, "The hour of lunch has come, little master." ”

Before he knew it, it was time for lunch, and Lan opened his lips and said, "I heard that Madame likes to eat a fish soup the most, but I want to try it." ”

"Since the little master wants to eat, then the slave and maid will go down and order." Xing'er hurriedly saluted, turned around and walked down.

The dining room was suddenly busy and overwhelmed.

The slaves and maids were divided into two groups, one group of slaves and maids prepared the food in the front yard first, and the other group of people prepared the food in the backyard.

In the front yard.

Qiao'er brought the exquisite meal to the table, and the tempting aroma made her swallow her saliva greedily.

"Madame, there is still the last fish soup to serve, the rest of the meals are served, you eat first." Qiao'er said respectfully.

At this time, Gu Mingzhu put down the needlework in her hand, got up and walked to the bed, she raised her eyebrows and looked at the delicious food in front of her.

Even she swallowed a little.

"All of this is made by Chef Wood?" Gu Mingzhu picked up the dishes and chopsticks and took a few bites, and asked softly.

At this time, Qiao'er bowed slightly and said, "These are all made by Chef Mu personally for his wife." ”

"Chef Mu's skills are getting better and better." Gu Mingzhu took a bite and praised again and again.

Qiao'er on the side also swallowed greedily, and said softly: "Madam, you can taste this again." ”

"Where's my fish soup?"

What made Gu Mingzhu have the most appetite was the fish soup, the delicious fish was cooked in fragrant white rice porridge, and it melted in the mouth when drunk.

At this time, Qiao'er said in a low voice: "Madam, you eat first, and the slave and maid will go down and urge again." ”

With that, she turned and retreated.

It took a long time for Qiao'er to come back.

"Madame, here comes the fish soup you wanted." Qiao'er hurriedly placed the fish soup in front of Gu Mingzhu.

"Why is it so late?" Gu Mingzhu couldn't help frowning and asked, with an indifferent expression on her delicate cheeks.

"Madame doesn't know, the fish soup that Chef Mu made for you earlier was taken away by the Lan family, and it was made in a hurry later." Qiao'er said while serving Gu Mingzhu to eat.

However, Gu Mingzhu frowned slightly, and said a little angrily: "Mrs. Ben is full, you should eat this fish soup." ”

"Thank you, ma'am." Qiao'er responded happily and hurriedly presented a bowl of fish and meat soup.

After a short time, Qiao'er drank all the bowl of fish and meat soup.

At this time, Gu Mingzhu got up, sat in front of the bed again, picked up the embroidery needle in his hand, and sewed the robe carefully.

She sat upright, tirelessly, sometimes stinging her fingers, but she never said a word.

And Qiao'er watched Gu Mingzhu sewing her robe, she sat on the side, and she was almost asleep.

Gu Mingzhu raised her beautiful eyes and glanced at Qiao'er, who looked tired, and joked with a smile: "If you are sleepy, go down and serve." ”

Qiao'er blinked a pair of bright eyes and whispered, "The slave maid wants to accompany Madame." ”

But her eyelids were constantly fighting.

Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu was a little crying and laughing, looking at Qiao'er with beautiful eyes, she shook her head and did not speak.

For the whole afternoon, Gu Mingzhu stayed in his room, concentrating on sewing clothes.

If she doesn't understand something, Gu Mingzhu will ask Qiao'er for advice.

For several days in a row, Gu Mingzhu stayed in the wing room and never went out.

On this day, Lan was idle and bored, and walked towards the front yard with broken steps.

"Say hello to my sister." Lan walked into the wing room and saluted towards Gu Mingzhu.

At this time, Gu Mingzhu stared intently at the robe in his hand, and said without raising his head: "Get up." ”

"Thank you, ma'am." Lan slowly stood up.

She raised her eyebrows and looked at Gu Mingzhu's careful appearance, her delicate cheeks looked relieved, but it gave people a calm and peaceful look.

Even if some women don't do any feminine work and say touching words, just sitting there is enough to attract everyone's attention.

Noncommittal, Gu Mingzhu is that woman.

And the Lan family was born in the Western Regions, and her appearance is glamorous and dazzling, and she deserves to be beautiful.

But Gu Mingzhu's cold and dusty temperament is eye-catching, even if she is beautiful, she has been robbed of the limelight.
