Chapter 49: Pastries from the Third Lady

Leaving the county government, Yuan Xu took the guards to the streets.

"Gongzi sent away the Shangcai officials in a few words, and it must be impossible to change to someone else?" A guard slapped Yuan Xu's ass.

"For two reasons, they don't dare to make a big deal out of it!" Yuan Xu said in a low voice: "One reason, it is the Yuan family, they dare not be guilty!" Another reason is that he is a righteous person, except for Jiang Yin, how many officials here have a clear conscience? ”

Yuan Xu mentioned Jiang Yin, and a guard said: "Childe ...... Jiang Yin"

"Except for stupidity and uprightness, there is no other impression!"

His answer surprised the four guards.

They thought that Jiang Jian would be praised, but they didn't expect to be named stupid!

Lowering his voice, Yuan Xu said: "Jiang Xiankong has a righteous spirit and abstains from interacting with others, but he is just good at himself, how much benefit does Yu Shangcai have?" ”

"No treacherous business, no treacherous and no official!" No one responded, Yuan Xu continued: "To be a good official and do something practical for the locality, it is not a detached image that proudly builds up disdain for others. It's about learning to be tactful in order to be at ease! ”

The four guards heartily agreed with these statements.

Don't talk about the far, just talk about the present.

Yuan Xu was very close to Zhen Yi, Dong He and others, and even lived in Dong He's house, but he did something that connived at the county soldiers to rob the treasury and made Zhen Yi and others speechless!

In terms of treachery, the officials of the entire Shangcai City combined are also half inferior to this young master.

Return to Dong's house and pass through the inner courtyard path.

The swing is still there, but the woman playing is gone.

When I arrived at the residence, Nian'er greeted me.

"The third lady sent some pastries." bowed, Nian'er said, "She said she made it herself." ”

is not familiar with Miss Dong Zhai, Yuan Xu really can't think of a reason to give him pastries.

"You can wait until you go back to your room and rest!" After instructing the guards, he went back to the house with Nian'er.

There is a tray on a small table in the room.

Two delicate small discs are placed on the tray.

Fluttershy is filled with some crudely made pastries.

"Why did the third lady send the pastries?" Looking at the pastry, Yuan Xu asked.

"I didn't say it explicitly!" Lowering his head, Nian'er said: "I want to do the friendship of the landlord......"

Such an explanation, not only Yuan Xu didn't believe it, but even Nian'er herself didn't believe it!

As far as the friendship of the landlord has its own Dong He, which is the turn of the third lady of the Dong family?

"Something receivable or shouldn't?" Pinched up a piece of pastry and looked at it, Yuan Xu suddenly asked Nian'er.

"The slave and maid only serve the son, as for the son's decision, he doesn't dare to interject at will!" Nian'er responded with sincere fear.

Her answer didn't give Yuan Xu any hint at all.

"So sleek, so young!" Smiling slightly, Yuan Xu said, "How about two more years?" ”

The little face was red, and Nian'er didn't dare to say anything.

"It's useless, but sending it back as it is a loss of face for my daughter's family!" After thinking for a while, Yuan Xu said, "You go and get a bowl of cooked corn and find some honey." ”

"Childe is going to ......" raised his head and looked at Yuan Xu, Nian'er looked dazed.

"You won't accept it, change the shape, make it more exquisite, and you will send it back!"

“……”

Nian'er didn't believe that the son who was born in the Yuan family could cook pastries.

"Stunned, go!" Seeing her hesitation, Yuan Xu urged.

When she woke up, Nian'er hurriedly responded and exited the room.

After a while, she retrieved a bowl of corn and a dash of honey.

Yuan Xu cooked pastries, and she also took the copper stove and small pot she needed from the room.

knows how to draw inferences, Yuan Xu is very satisfied with her actions.

The third lady who delivered the pastries was Dong Qing who Yuan Xu saw swinging in the back house in the morning.

Put the pastries sent by Dong Qing into a small basin, stir them into a paste with water, and add cooked corn and honey, Yuan Xu kneaded them into a beautiful color.

Looking at his actions, Nian'er was secretly surprised in her heart.

The son of the Yuan family actually knows how to cook, which really surprised her!

The shaped pastry is placed in a small pot, and as Yuan Xu cooks it, the pastry turns from white to golden.

Nian'er also smelled a rich fragrance that she had never smelled before.

"Would you like to try it?" Looking up at her, Yuan Xu grinned.

"The son gave it to the third lady, the slave didn't dare!" Sincerely frightened, Nian'er lowered her head, and couldn't hold her breath to stop smelling the fragrance.

"The pastry is remade in the pot, and the taste will not be much better!" Flipping the pastries, Yuan Xu said: "If you really want to eat, find an opportunity to make some more!" ”

"Torture the slave!" With his legs bent, Nian'er knelt on the ground and said: "The son is a nobleman, a body of ten thousand gold, a slave and a maid, how dare you work for the son......"

"Don't say such things in the future!" Interrupting her, Yuan Xu smiled and said seriously: "Don't worry about outsiders, if it's just you and me, you can be casual!" ”

"No!" Although Nian'er responded, she was still full of fear.

Just a maidservant, how dare she be casual with Yuan Xu?

"Get up!" Raising his hand, Yuan Xu commanded.

After thanking her, Nian'er got up and stood aside, her head hanging lower than before, and she didn't dare to look at Yuan Xu at all.

Knowing that it would not change her concept for a while and a half, Yuan Xu no longer insisted and focused on cooking pastries.

After a long time for the pastry to be completed and put it on a small plate, he said to Nian'er: "Send it to Miss San, don't say that you use the pastry she sent to cook this thing, just say that you can return the gift!" ”

Placing the dish on the tray, Nian'er exited the room.

The smell of sweets fills the room.

After working for a long time, Yuan Xu felt a little tired, stretched his waist and got up and walked into the room.

Holding the tray and going out, Nian'er had not yet arrived at the gate of the small courtyard and met two guards.

"Miss Nian'er, where are you going?" Greeting her, one of the guards asked.

Holding the tray, Nian'er said, "Childe and the little maid will send some pastries to the third lady!" ”

Knowing that Yuan Xu asked her to send pastries, the two guards' eyes suddenly lit up, and they greeted Nian'er and asked, "Did Childe do it?" ”

"Exactly ......"

Nian'er answered, and the guard smiled and said, "Can the girl give a piece to a certain taste?" ”

"Isn't it okay?" Although the guards on the side had the same thought, they hesitated and said, "After all, it was given to Miss Dong by Gongzi!" ”

"Childe's craftsmanship is the best in the world!" The guard who begged for the pastry licked his lips: "I can eat a piece, and I really have a good race to become an immortal." ”

Nian'er hurriedly put the tray in her arms, and said with a red face: "How can you two be like this?" ”

"Girl, don't panic!" Another guard saw that Nian'er was nervous, and hurriedly said: "Gongzi didn't agree, give me two ten guts, and I don't dare to taste it without permission......"

The guard's hot gaze made Nian'er feel flustered.

I owe a debt, I said goodbye, and she hurriedly walked out of the small courtyard with the tray in her hand!
