Chapter 542: Hospitality
Autumn is the season when chrysanthemums bloom.
Grandmother has always loved flowers and plants, chrysanthemums and osmanthus in this house are also well cared for, when the chrysanthemums are in full bloom, they beckoned the next person to pick some to make pastries or make tea.
I have always had some talent in this area, and when I saw that the chrysanthemums and osmanthus I picked were very good, I wanted to make some pastries by myself.
There is no small kitchen in the West Garden of the Liefu, so I took Jasmine directly to the back kitchen to do it, and the master and servant have a clear division of labor, full of tacit understanding, and it is easy to do.
Jasmine chatted with the princess while helping, "Princess, I heard that the capital will hold a chrysanthemum banquet in a few days, it seems to be very grand, and it has attracted many people who want to go and enjoy it." ”
Although she usually likes to join in the fun, she is not very interested in this chrysanthemum banquet, after all, she grew up in the palace since she was a child, and she has not seen any precious and rare chrysanthemum varieties?
The hometown concentrated on making osmanthus cakes, and instructed Jasmine to make tea with chrysanthemums, and the master and servant were busy in the kitchen all morning.
Lie Chang'an finished inspecting the construction from the moat and was about to go to the barracks, and returned home halfway to change his clothes, but he entered the West Garden quietly.
Lie Changan frowned and asked Lu Jin, who was cleaning up the house, "What about Madam?" ”
Lu Jin stopped his movements and said respectfully, "Madame took Jasmine to the back kitchen to sit on the osmanthus cake." Do you want the slave to call Madame? ”
"No need."
Lie Changan thought that he would definitely be able to taste the pastries made by his daughter-in-law again today, and his heart was so delicious, where was he willing to disturb her.
After changing his clothes, Lie Changan went straight to the barracks.
Pei Song followed behind Lie Chang'an, and saw that the boss's face was rare along the way, not expressionless all the time, but a little happy to hum a little song, thinking that this was just going back to the mansion to look at Madame? At least happy to be like that? I love
A man who is immersed in love really turns his face faster than turning a book.
Pei Song was quite a little 'can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour' all the way, and after arriving at the barracks, he followed the training of soldiers.
After an hour, Lie Chang'an entered the camp tent to rest, and Pei Song understood why the boss was so happy.
Not long after, a soldier walked in with a food box and said with a smile, "General, a maidservant girl at the door brought some pastries and said it was for you." ”
When Pei Song heard it, eighty percent of the pastries were made by his wife, so the maid who sent the pastries was Jasmine nine times out of ten.
Pei Song was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Then, what about the maid who delivered the pastries?" ”
The soldier put the food box on the table with both hands, and when he heard Pei Song's question, he felt inexplicable, and said in a natural tone, "I'll leave after sending it." ”
Pei Song was disappointed and said angrily, "Why don't you know how to invite someone in for a cup of tea?" People have personally sent pastries from afar, and you don't have any hospitality? ”
Soldier:???
"But this is a military camp, and the little ones don't dare to let the ladies enter casually."
Pei Song wanted to say something, but Lie Changan had already spoken directly, "He is sick, you don't have to pay attention to him." ”
Pei Song: "......"
The soldier nodded in understanding and sympathy, then withdrew.
When Lie Chang'an opened the food box, he smelled a fragrant pastry smell coming to his nose, and saw that the small and delicate osmanthus cakes were neatly placed in the food box, and there was a pot of chrysanthemum tea that had just been brewed next to it.
