Chapter 182: Garlic Crab

Aunt Lu sat in the hall and stared blankly at the snowy scene outside the window, and a maid walked over lightly: "The charity mage is here, does the master want to see it?"

Aunt Lu put away the pearl bracelet in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "You go and prepare to leave, and let the concierge let him in." ”

The maid left after blessing her body, leaving Aunt Lu sitting on the chair in a daze, and after a while there was a sound of broken footsteps outside the door, Aunt Lu came back to her senses and sneered: "For such a long time, everything that should be fought has been fought, and all means have been used, you are now a submissive look." ”

The charity outside the door showed a somewhat painful look for the first time, and after a while he pushed the door and walked in, Aunt Lu's eyes fell on him and said as if with emotion: "It's been a long time since I saw you, you're still the same, but it's a pity that I'm old."

Charity sat beside her and took a sip of tea, and said in a trembling voice: "I'm also old, it's just that you can't see it, and I can't remember your name."

Aunt Lu gently picked up the kettle on the side to refill the almost empty teapot, and she said lightly in the gurgling water: "The last person who remembered my name a few days ago also died, and now I can't remember it myself, everyone calls me Simin'an, this name is very good, you can also call it that."

It seemed that all the sentimentality disappeared with Fang Cai's words, and Charity closed his eyes and returned to his usual easy-going but cold appearance: "If you really give up your name, there won't be such a scene in the capital now, in the end, it's still unwilling."

Aunt Lu sighed while holding the hot tea: "Aren't you still the same, just say what you have." I'm running out of time. ”

Charity was silent for a long time and seemed to have compromised, and he said softly: "I won't give up, I hope you can do it yourself."

Saying that, she walked towards the door without looking back, and Aunt Lu took a sip of tea unhurriedly and said a little mockingly: "I thought you suddenly came here to intercede for Yujie."

The figure of Charity paused and stopped at the door: "I originally wanted to speak, but I know that I won't let her go when I hear what you mean, so there's no need, but Si Min'an has one thing you have to remember, since we can defeat you once, we can defeat you a second time, so let's be careful."

Aunt Lu looked at his back and didn't speak for a long time, and the maid on the side walked in and whispered, "Our things have been packed up, and if it's okay, the master can set off."

The teacup in Aunt Lu's hand slowly fell, and she closed her eyes and whispered, "No need, let's go."

In the Queen's Palace, Lu Qingjin was bored looking at the book in his hand, Xiao Ling walked in and sighed helplessly: "Niangniang, don't look at it, there are a lot of fun things outside, what are you doing here?"

Lu Qingjin closed his eyes with a headache with the book in his hand: "It's not to learn more about what crops there are, I have never heard of that ice crystal fruit a few days ago, and I didn't know anything when I planted it, if it weren't for Concubine Li, those ice crystal fruits that were about to ripen would have rotted in the lake."

Hearing this, Xiao Ling reluctantly walked over and took down the book that Lu Qingjin had covered his face: "You are not a saint, you don't know how rare some things are, some fresh crabs came in the kitchen today, if you are idle, you can take a look."

Lu Qingjin was interested when he heard this, and said while pulling Xiao Ling outside: "This is to take a good look, I have never seen crabs in the palace for so long, and I have been wondering why the Caspian Sea is so close and there is no seafood."

Xiao Ling threw the rag in his hand a little helplessly, and didn't plan to remind Lu Qingjin that he had cleaned up the house: "This is not a place near the coast, I don't know why, there are not too many fresh seafood, so if you want to eat things in the sea, you have to go to the far sea, the price of seafood in the capital has always been high, if it wasn't for the fact that Shengshi Pavilion made a lot of money a few days ago, the emperor would not be willing to give up."

Lu Qingjin crushed the snow at his feet and asked with some doubts: "Why don't I know what kind of money Shengshi Pavilion made a few days ago, besides, have there been any new dishes launched at this time, and the people from the Western Regions have also gone back, what money can be made." ”

Xiao Ling approached her strangely and whispered: "It's that Qinglan's matter was exposed a few days ago, although Princess Wei is angry, it is useless, King Wei and Shizi both like this child, Qinglan wants to take care of our business and eat Shengshi Pavilion's things, but it helped us make a good profit."

Lu Qingjin had a strange feeling in his heart and didn't know what to say, but fortunately, the two of them stumbled and had already arrived at the imperial dining room, and the cook inside smiled when he saw Lu Qingjin: "Niangniang is here, this new crab is expensive, we don't know what the emperor likes to eat, come and see."

Lu Qingjin didn't have any big plans, after all, the crabs in winter are usually not so fat, and when he took it to the edge of the water tank, he was startled, and the crabs in the tank were all fresh, fat, and alive, as if someone had raised them on purpose.

She looked at the chili pepper next to her and wondered if she had made a spicy crab, but Xiao Ling gently grabbed her and whispered: "Niangniang, I have thought about it, these few days are your menstrual affairs, if you eat chili peppers, you will suffer."

Lu Qingjin sighed helplessly and gently picked up a head of garlic: "You don't have to worry about it, Xiaoling will help you make garlic crabs today."

Xiao Ling happily agreed, and the two of them rolled up their sleeves and started to work.

Qin Zhao in the imperial study didn't know how many times Xiao Fuzi finally spoke when he looked at the door: "Please wait a little longer, Niangniang has already come over with garlic crabs, and it won't take long to arrive."

Qin Zhao nodded with satisfaction: "Even if she has a conscience, she also knows that she made dinner and brought it over."

As soon as the words fell, Lu Qingjin walked in with a lunch box and Shi Shiran: "When did I have no conscience, okay, I won't worry about you if I'm in a good mood today, look at the crabs this time, there are very few such crabs in winter."

Qin Zhao glanced at her and said fiercely: "Little thing that you don't know, no matter what season this crab is in the capital of Dayu, this crab is very expensive, and the corresponding crab is very fat, you can make good money, and when the palace gets rich in the future, you can eat crabs every day."
