Chapter 968: Flattered
"Your Majesty, today is Old Man Zheng's birthday, and this lord is naturally the birthday star. Let's not be anti-customer-oriented. I look at the seat next to this, it's good! Gu Ye winked at him, respect for the old and the virtuous, understand?
Old Man Zheng hurriedly said: "I can't help it, I can't do it." The status of the palace is noble, and he should sit on the top position...... "When the old man spoke, his head was sweating. How can the temple sit under him? He can't sit still, even if he sits?
"Listen to my wife!" Ling Jiechen refused to move to the main position no matter what Old Man Zheng and several respected figures on the rivers and lakes said.
Zheng Wu personally moved a chair and placed it side by side next to the main seat. Ling Juechen took his daughter-in-law's little hand and sat down there. The man sat down, but the hand he was holding did not let go......
Old Man Zheng glared at his youngest son, although the chair of the Hidden Soul Hall was only a little lower than his, but let him sit on the top of the palace, which ...... Isn't this roasting him on the fire? One day, if the palace is in a bad mood, thinks of this stubble, and finds trouble for them to gather in Xianzhuang, it will be a catastrophe for their Zheng family!
Originally, all the people in this hall were the same age as Mr. Zheng, enjoying a great reputation, and they were all familiar with each other, and they chatted quite lively. But as soon as Ling Jiechen and Gu Ye came, everything seemed to have pressed the pause button, and everyone was as quiet as chickens.
In the morning, the breakfast near the inn was not very appetizing, Gu Ye ate very little, and saw that the dim sum on the table at hand was Qingfeng Lou's signature sponge cake, which was also paired with her favorite blueberry jam.
She looked at her hands, they washed it in the morning, it shouldn't be too dirty, right? Her small action made Zheng Wu, who had been paying attention to these two great gods, notice. He hurriedly instructed the maid to hold a silver basin and let the palace lady clean her hands.
Gu Ye washed his hands in a good mood, wiped it with a snow-white handkerchief, pinched a piece of cake with his slender fingers, brought it to his mouth and took a bite lightly. Well, it's delicious! Could it be that the chubby chef still makes dim sum? This kind of versatile chef is buried in this small Chongming Mansion, which is too condescending.
The chef didn't expect that his trip to Juxianzhuang not only repaid the kindness, but also fell into the eyes of the boss behind Qingfeng Building. In the near future, he was rewarded with a lot of good things by his master, and he was also transferred to Qingfeng Building in the capital. What a surprise!
"Delicious!" Gu Ye finished eating a small piece of cake in his hand, and said unsatisfied, "It's just a little dry, if only there was almond milk." Sponge cake and almond milk are a perfect match! ”
Ling Juechen glanced at Zheng Wu lightly. In his opinion, the whole Juxianzhuang is the most eye-catching old boy.
Sure enough, Zheng Wu received his "signal", trotted to the kitchen in person, and said to the fat chef who was busy with sweat: "Brother Huang! Jianghu emergency!! I wonder if you know how to make almond milk? ”
"Yes! What's wrong? "Chef Huang has the most contact with Zheng Wu and has the best relationship.
Zheng Wu hurriedly said: "Great! The Lady of the Hidden Soul Hall mentioned a mouthful of 'almond milk'. I see that the palace is quite fond of her, and if she doesn't serve this ancestor well, I'm afraid that the palace will blame her. ”
"Your Majesty? You mean the temple of the Hidden Soul Temple? "Except for a few high-ranking people in the Hidden Soul Palace, there are not many people who know that the hall is King Ning, and Chef Huang is not yet at the level where he can get a glimpse of this secret.
He was a little strange why the palace lord would come to this small county town. The old man Zheng of Juxianzhuang, although he has a good reputation in the rivers and lakes, is not enough for the palace to come to celebrate his birthday. At the same time, he was puzzled, but also a little excited, it was definitely his honor to let the palace master eat the food he cooked!
Wait, what did Xiao Wuzi say? Lady of the Palace? When did the palace have a wife? Still celebrating their birthday in such a high-profile way? However, if the palace marries a wife, he doesn't have to let a little cook know. I don't know who the woman who can subdue the temple is sacred.
"Grinding yam, stir-frying almonds and grinding flour, and then preparing fresh milk and honey...... "Chef Huang's dessert skills are still his own sweet tooth, and he grinds the dessert master in the building to teach him. I didn't expect it to be useful!
Zheng Wu hesitated for a moment and said, "This milk...... You may not be able to get it for a while. ”
"No milk...... Goat's milk is fine, too! Chef Huang thought for a moment.
"Goat's milk is there, goat's milk is there! There are many tenants in the neighborhood who have sheep, so I will tell someone to get them! When Zheng Wu left, he was lucky. You can't let the two living ancestors of the palace and the lady be impatient!
Gu Ye said that he wanted to drink almond milk, and when he brought it to the almond milk, it was only a quarter of an hour. Huai yam, almonds and honey, there are ready-made in Zhuangzi, although milking goat milk takes a little time, but the grinding of flour, fried almonds of fried almonds, boiled goat's milk of boiled goat's milk...... The division of labor is particularly clear, and the overall planning is quite reasonable.
In the shortest possible time, Gu Ye drank the sweet almond milk and smiled happily. She couldn't help but sigh: "On a cold morning, there is no happy thing to drink a cup of warm almond milk." ”
Ling Juechen smiled in his voice through the mask: "Just so happy? Why didn't you find out that you like almond milk before? ”
"Before...... You can drink it when you want to. When you don't want to drink it, you can force it to drink. Of course, it's not uncommon. It's not like going out, everything is simple, I haven't drunk it for a few days! Gu Ye drank a small bowl of almond milk, not enjoying it, and looked at the bowl in her husband's hand with salivation.
Ling Juechen drank all the almond milk in the bowl in one go, and said to his wife who looked at him angrily, "I'll have lunch in a while." If you're too full at this time, you won't be able to eat it again when the table is full of food. ”
Gu Ye pouted and leaned lazily on the back of the chair, looking invigorated. Ling Juechen hurriedly peeled the pine nuts he had peeled and put them in front of his daughter-in-law: "Your favorite pine nuts, I specially peeled them for you!" ”
Gu Ye lifted his eyelids, looked at the pine nuts in his palm, looked away again, and said, "Almond milk is also my favorite." Why don't you let it go to me? ”
"......" Ling Juechen couldn't do anything about this grudge-holding snack to stop Zheng Wu, who wanted to make another copy in the kitchen, he said to Gu Ye in a good voice, "I'll peel more pine nuts and let the kitchen make you a pine nut shrimp, how about it?" ”
"Actually, what I want to eat most is pine nut corn." Gu Ye thought about it for a while, sighed again, and said, "At this time, where can I get fresh corn?" Alas......"
"I'll let someone get it for you, and you must have this dish at noon, right?" Ling Jiechen exchanged glances with his daughter-in-law, asking her to find an opportunity to smuggle out the fresh corn in the space, and he would arrange it.
Gu Ye pursed his lips and said in his heart: It sounds good, what are you going to get? At the end of the day, it's up to me to make space!
The guests in the hall, I didn't expect that the hall of the Hidden Soul Hall was actually a wife and slave, which was too different from his usual image, right? Everyone here is an old man. They calmly (pretended to be calm) bowed their heads and drank their tea, as if they had not noticed the couple next to the main seat.
Not long after, Gu Ye glanced at her husband, and the two came out of the flower hall under the pretext of strolling around the garden casually. rejected Zheng Wu's kindness to lead the way, and the two were in the empty back garden...... Pour corn out.
The open space in Gu Ye's space was reclaimed by Ling Jiechen to plant some crops such as melons and fruits, and the few corns planted were planted because Gu Yelai wanted to gnaw on boiled corn in the moon. If you don't pick it, the corn will always hang on the plant and keep it fresh.
"How much to take? There is not enough corn in the space for one plate per table. Gu Ye mainly felt sorry for the corn that her husband had worked so hard to plant, and didn't want to give it to others.
Ling Jiechen carried a few ears of corn and beckoned to a hidden corner of the garden, and the hidden dragon immediately appeared in front of the couple. Sending the hidden fish to the kitchen to deliver corn, Ling Juechen said, "Who said that every table will give a plate?" How big of a face can they eat the corn that the deity planted with their own hands? ”
Right! You are the greatest! blatantly gave his daughter-in-law a single meal, and others didn't dare to say anything. After today, Gu Ye can feel how capable her husband is. King Ning, God of War or something, she already knew it.
It's just that I didn't expect that the Hidden Soul Hall would have such a high status in the rivers and lakes. None of those heroes with white beards and hair dared to make a mistake in front of him. Gu Ye teased her husband with a little teasing: "You honestly confess, what kind of evil have you created that made them afraid like a tiger?" ”
"The force value is too high, the strength is overwhelming, your husband and I can't keep a low profile! Jianghu is a place where you can speak with your fists. Your husband's fist is the hardest, and others can only surrender! Ling Juechen clenched his fists and shook it in front of his daughter-in-law.
Gu Ye grabbed his fist and bit a deep tooth mark on the tiger's mouth. Ling Juechen licked the two rows of small tooth marks, and said in surprise: "Daughter-in-law, when did you become so high-profile?" Show your affection brightly! Is this a stamp for me, marked with ownership? ”
"Humph! Who told you not to give me the almond milk? Gu Ye turned his head arrogantly, and the tips of his ears were red.
"If you don't let you eat more, you'll gnaw on my hand? How hungry and gluttonous! Wife, I've been suffering from you these days. I feel so distressed, what should I do? Otherwise, what is the plan, let's not go, go back to King Ning's Mansion, and my husband will make up for you! Ling Juechen stretched out his hand, picked a plum branch, and sent it to Gu Ye.
Gu Ye took the plum branch, but said firmly: "To do things, you must have a beginning and an end!" Are you willing to let go of the people behind the attempt to rob me in vain? ”
"Whoever dares to touch me will pay the price of blood! Daughter-in-law, let's discuss it, and I'll leave this matter to me. When you go back to your capital, you should enjoy the blessings and enjoy the blessings, and you can make medicine if you want to, okay? On the one hand, Ling Juechen is not at ease, and on the other hand, he feels sorry for his daughter-in-law's dusty journey, which is strange and hard.
