Chapter 177: You Really Lived in Vain
"It's really called a chaise longe?"
"Yes, she made it specifically for the concubine, so it's called the concubine cake."
"Although there is a suspicion of sycophancy, however, this palace likes it." Concubine Jin looked in a happy mood.
Li Hongyuan smiled and said: "After so many years, it is the first time that Erchen has heard you say that you like someone from the mouth of the concubine. ”
"It's not that Hongu likes her, but I just like the snacks she makes." Concubine Jin returned to her indifferent and cold appearance, and yawned lazily, "In the eyes of this palace, no one is worthy of liking." Including your father, including you. ”
"My son didn't provoke you."
"You think you're a good thing. It's not about fighting for the throne. What's the point. Concubine Jin said lazily, "Go back." Tell your daughter-in-law that if you want the palace to help in the future, you will exchange it for delicious food. ”
Li Hongyuan: "...... Mother, my sons and daughters were filial to you before, right? You are a picky eater by nature, and your son has also collected a lot of food for you, why didn't you take a second look? ”
"The ones you found aren't tasty."
“……”
Concubine Jin glanced at him: "Isn't eating a very important thing?" If you don't eat, you'll starve to death. ”
"Yes, it's important."
"Have you ever eaten something your daughter-in-law made?"
"No, I didn't."
"Then you're living in vain."
“……”
Li Hong saluted from afar: "The mother concubine rests, and the sons and daughters retire." ”
He walked to the door and heard her say, "Do you know why Hongu has always disliked you?" ”
Li Hongyuan stopped.
Concubine Jin said lightly, "Because, you are too similar to this palace." Our mother and son are both the same by nature, and you are filial and respectful to your father and the palace on the surface. But you don't have much affection for us. Your daughter-in-law is good at cooking, but you haven't eaten it, so it can be seen that she doesn't like you. It stands to reason that you are his husband, you have a noble status, and you are good-looking. She shouldn't dislike you, but she just doesn't, you know why? ”
Li Hongyuan didn't speak.
Jin Guifei said: "Because you don't have a heart." You only care about yourself, and you can only use her all the time. Those who do not give their sincerity to others will never get the sincerity of others. ”
Li Hongyuan was silent for a moment, and said with a relaxed smile: "How did the mother concubine remember to say this today." ”
"It's nothing, it's rare to eat a good bite, and if you're in a good mood, I'll nag a few more words." Concubine Jin touched her face and said to the palace maids beside her, "It's amazing, is this palace old, why has it become nagging?" ”
Li Hongyuan shook his head and raised his feet to leave.
On the day of the release of the imperial examination, Jiang Ning made a food box with his own hands and asked people to send it back to the third brother.
If you pass the test, it should be a congratulations.
If you don't win, you should be comforted by eating a good mouth.
But Jiang Yi was very competitive and was directly admitted to the eighth place in the first class.
The Jiang family was happy, and Jiang Yi hurriedly sent someone to Yuwang's mansion to tell Jiang Ning that the food was very good, and he wanted more.
Jiang Ning sent someone to ask, "How is He Tang's exam?" ”
"He Tang is even more promising, the third place in the first class!"
"That's not Tanhualang?"
"After the palace test, His Majesty can only decide after taking the test himself." The subordinate smiled, "The third master of our family will also participate in the palace examination, maybe the emperor likes it, so he will give it to him." ”
Jiang Ning was very happy, rolled up his sleeves and cooked the food himself.
Li Hongyuan came back from outside and heard that the princess personally cooked, sent food to her mother's family, and sent another one to the He family.
