Chapter 31: The Food Box Turmoil

Shu Qing's eyebrows moved: "The people from the old lady of the Marquis Mansion are also present?" ”

Xuehuan said: "I have been queuing in the small kitchen for a long time, and the two maids in front of me don't know which one is from the house, and they have been occupying the small kitchen to find faults, until the maid next to the old lady comes to Duqiu, and then I left." ”

Shu Qing said: "Open these food boxes and take a look." ”

Snow Ring should be, and glanced at the two maids behind him. The two maids hurriedly put the dishes in the food box outward one by one, but when Shu Qing saw the first dish on the table, his face changed.

The first dish turned out to be Jinyu Liangyuan, which was made from a small mountain fowl hunted in the forests of the Xing'an Mountains on the border of the Mongolian steppe. This little mountain fowl is not a rarity. But in the past two years, the relationship between the grassland and the Great Zhou has become more and more stiff, resulting in fewer and fewer people going to hunt in the Xing'an Mountains.

Shu Qing looked at the stewed pheasant meat in the bowl, but her heart was very chaotic for a while, and a lot of fragmentary thoughts flashed to her, which made her feel bored. It should be appetizing, but when Shu Qing looked at it, she felt a stomach churning, and she hurriedly stood up, leaned over and retched to the table.

Xuehuan panicked and hurriedly wanted to come over to help Shu Qing, but Shu Qing stretched out his hand to stop her, and continued to say coldly: "Look at what else you have?" ”

The maids on the side hurriedly took out all the meals in the food box, but each time they took the same, it made Shu Qing cold a little colored. - I saw that these four food boxes were filled with twelve hard dishes, in addition to the golden and jade good fate, there were also pipa prawns, carp leaping dragon gate, sea cucumber jade tendons and other golden dishes, which were full of a table, which looked very terrifying.

Xue Pei also panicked, couldn't help but look at Shu Qing, and said in a trembling voice: "Niangniang, this, this...... What now? Or the slave and maid take the food back......"

Shu Qing's face was very solemn: "Naturally, you can't take it back." The lunch box has been delivered to my room, and then I rushed it back, but I am afraid that I will end up with a picky eater and a difficult ending for Princess Qing. ”

Xuehuan hesitated: "But, but these dishes are not reasonable, if someone with a heart catches the handle......"

Shu Qing said: "When these dishes were delivered, they had already fallen into someone else's trap. I'm afraid that at this time, countless people in the dark are staring at us, just waiting for us to make a fool of ourselves in the palace of the prince of the country. ”

Xue Huan and Xue Pei glanced at each other, and the anxious color in their eyebrows became more and more obvious.

Shu Qing quickly calmed down and sneered: "Since someone is planning to find out my mistakes, it is better to plan it, I want to see who is trying to harm me." It's only the first day, and the other party can't wait to see my jokes, and if I don't hold on to this bait, how can I know who the fisherman is! ”

After a pause, he continued: "Put these plates back into the food box. The snow ring brought me the 100-meter cake I brought from the house. ”

Soon, Xuehuan presented the plain white pastry on the table, and Shu Qing ate it slowly, while letting Xuepei go outside and secretly pay attention to the movement at the door.

And after about an hour of incense, Xue Pei came back and whispered to Shu Qing: "Niangniang, someone is here." ”

Shu Qing blinked, and Xue Pei stood on Xue Huan's side again and served Shu Qing together.

Shu Qing waited for a long time, until some chaotic footsteps seemed to be faintly heard in his ears, and then Shu Qing stood up and scolded Xue Huan and Xue Pei: "You have been following me for so many years, how could you make such a low-level mistake?" The palace is a visitor, the big day in front of me is because of the old lady's birthday, the palace is a visitor, how can the meal be so extravagant, if this word spreads, wouldn't it collide with the old lady's joy? ”

Xue Huan and Xue Pei lowered their heads, looking very self-blaming. Xuehuan hesitated and said: "Back to Niangniang, this food box is, it was handed to the slave maid by the cooks in the small kitchen of the Marquis of Guogong's Mansion." It is said that these meal boxes are specially prepared for you. ”

Shu Qing sighed heavily, and said quietly: "This palace is very wide, and it is inevitable that it will be misunderstood by people from other places, and it will be misunderstood by the greedy appetite of this palace." But the people of the outer palace don't know the habits of the palace, you have taken care of the palace for so many years, don't you still know? Speaking of this, his tone was sad and reproachful, as if he was hurt by these meal boxes, and continued, "In addition, this palace is pregnant with a prince at this time, and now it is the most serious time for morning sickness, and you can't eat meat every day, so you can only eat some 100-meter cakes to relieve your hunger, but you don't report the situation of this palace to the small kitchen, but send this food box from the small kitchen...... This palace usually treats you well, but you do things like this, which really makes this palace feel cold! At the end of the day, his voice was already tinged with a layer of color.

Xue Huan and Xue Pei hurriedly knelt down in front of Shu Qing, and kept shouting to Niang Niang to stop her anger.

And at this time, standing outside the door of Shu Qing's room was Mama Ye beside the old lady of the Marquis of the Mansion, and Ying Wanwan, the only daughter of the elder Ying Shanshu, the personal maid beside her, Orange. Ying Wanwan is the only daughter of Ying Ge Lao, and she has been held as a pearl in her palm since she was a child, so even the maid Orange on Wanwan's side has been raised to look like a small jasper. Delicate skin, long satin-like hair, and a pair of eyes that are watery, as if shining with water.

In addition to Mama Ye and Cheng'er, there was also a little chef named Chen Jia in the small kitchen, and the three of them stood outside the door together at this time, and they all listened to the words of Fang Cai Shuqing who reprimanded the two personal maids.

Mama Ye has been taking care of the old lady for so many years, and she has never seen anything pickled in the back house. Just now when she was about to go to the small kitchen to get the bird's nest soup for the old lady, the little cook named Chen Jia hesitated and said to Mama Ye that Princess Qing ignored the rules and forcibly took away the food that was intended to be given to the prince Mo Xian.

Chen Jia even found witnesses, it was the twilight girl who was also serving by the old lady's side, and Ying Wanwan's personal maid Cheng'er.

It's just that...... Mama Ye has been serving the old lady under the same roof with Duqiu all the year round, how can she not know the temperament of the Duqiu girl. I just saw this orange's maid in addition, and secretly looked at the orange's outfit, it was the best brocade weaving, her long black hair was meticulously combed, and her pretty face was even covered with makeup, where did she look like a maid!

A maid who waits for a young lady in the back house, but she dresses more luxuriously than ordinary young ladies, and even wears makeup, what does this maid want to do?
