Chapter 14: What's Concerning Me?
Tan Youyou is clear.
No matter how depressed people are, they are also the real dragon sons and phoenixes.
As long as you don't make mistakes, you can get the position of the prince sooner or later, after all, the palace also needs face, and everyone needs to praise and be benevolent. Now it's hanging in the balance, but it's just a check.
With such a bloodline identity, only a girl like Tan Ruyi and Miss Qi San who is born, old, and talented can afford it.
After marrying in, it is time to be the daughter of the clan and the wife of the prince of the Hou Mansion, if you are lucky, you may be able to get a Mrs. Hou in the future, even if the Zhou family sees it, she must bow her head and salute, and say "Mrs. is well".
The Tan family's financial resources are limited, and there are many children, and marrying is a big expense.
What's more, the world is patriarchal, and the daughter's dowry can never exceed the son's marriage expenses.
Therefore, this family business may not be good for Tan Ruyi, but it is definitely very good for Tan Ruhui and Tan Ruyu, and it is no wonder that Aunt Qian and Aunt Cui are moved.
"Miss, why don't you speak?" Seeing Tan Youyou, Liu Zhi kneaded a lump of dough in a variety of ways, coiled into a snake for a while, pinched a flower for a while, and stomped his feet anxiously: "What do you think about this?" ”
"My opinion is ......" Tan Youyou smiled and leaned into the ear of Liu Zhi, and sighed: "What's the matter with me?" ”
Willow Branch stomped his feet: "Miss! ”
Tan Youyou laughed and slapped the dough tightly, covered it with a clean, wet cloth, washed his hands, and left.
Anyway, the Zhou family and Aunt Mei are good friends, and the scumbag father seems to be ashamed of her and Aunt Mei, and it is impossible to throw Tan Ruyi's unwanted marriage on her head.
Since Aunt Qian and Aunt Cui have taken a fancy to it, she just let them fight, she just needs to move a stool, hold a plate of melon seeds, and watch the excitement while knocking.
Liu Zhi caught up unwillingly: "The slave guessed, that Pei Shizi should be the tall and good-looking one we saw, the particularly good-looking one, do you remember?" ”
Oh, the one that looks like the headmaster! Tan Youyou said ruthlessly: "I can't remember! I just remember that there was a kind of fire persimmon that was delicious, sweet and watery......"
When she entered the house, she saw that Aunt Mei was copying the scriptures again, so she lit the lamp and asked, "Aunt already knows, right?" ”
With her understanding of Aunt Mei, Liu Zhi was able to eavesdrop, and it was mostly deliberate by Aunt Mei.
Aunt Mei did not deny it, she kept writing, and her eyebrows were not raised: "I have my own conclusion on this matter." ”
The implication is that you don't care, don't panic, just do what you have to do.
"I want to discuss with you how to mix the filling of this broken crispy bun tomorrow." Tan Youyou saw that her mother was so calm, and she was even more stunned, so she said, it's none of her business!
Aunt Mei doesn't care about this matter: "You can mix it as much as you like." ”
"Is it okay to have a cold salad?" Tan Yoyo asked mischievously.
Aunt Mei had long been accustomed to her strange words, and only smiled and scolded in a low voice: "Naughty! And he took no care of her.
Tan Youyou had nothing to do in her heart, she was enthusiastic about manipulating the food, and when she got to a little bit, she fell asleep with her head on the pillow, but she didn't sleep very peacefully, just because she had a terrible dream.
It's not that I dreamed that I was caught and injured on the head, but that I dreamed that I was stealing food in class and was caught by the principal himself.
The principal's face was as cold as ice slag, and when he spoke, it was like a cold air conditioner spraying cold air out, which made people goosebumps rise layer after layer.
She was so pitiful that she was trembling with fright, and begged for mercy and currying favor, and the ruthless headmaster asked her to read the review book at the school assembly and receive criticism and education.
Unable to struggle, she had to cry and read the review book at the school meeting, and her heart was as cold as the Antarctic ice cap.
Baba stepped off the stage, and the murderous and ruthless headmaster grabbed her collar and said, "Dare to do this next time, see if I don't beat you!" ”
Tan Youyou plucked up the courage to resist, and then saw that the principal looked exactly like the serious and serious beautiful man he saw in Bamber's Mansion.
She immediately understood that she was dreaming, and burst into laughter, until she woke up and could hear her own laughter echoing throughout the room.
Willow Branch yawned, walked in while dressing, and said in a daze, "Why did Miss wake up so early today?" ”
"I won't tell you." Tan Youyou raised his eyebrows proudly, go to his principal! This girl doesn't have to go to school!
The finished dough filled the whole copper basin, and when I pulled it by hand, there were many pores like a beehive.
Tan Youyou praised himself very experienced: "I knead this noodle so well, and the hair is so good, okay, willow branches, do it and noodles!" ”
The snow-white lard that has been boiled in advance is smeared on the rolled dough, layer after layer, and kneaded to the back, the dough becomes oil-soaked color, and it is pinched by hand without sticking, and you can see that it has been divided into several layers.
Stir-fry diced ham, sugar, peanuts and minced shiitake mushrooms into fillings, wrap them in the upper drawer and steam them over high heat.
In the mist, Tan Youyou took a deep breath intoxicated: "The fragrance is out, it's delicious, what about the sweet filling......"
The maids and women in the courtyard all leaned together to poke their necks and swallow their saliva.
The steamed puffy bun is soft and layered, and it feels very delicious just by eating the skin, which is not more interesting than an ordinary bun is a piece of noodles, and the filling is sweet and salty, and has a unique flavor.
For such a delicacy, it is still necessary to send a portion to the main courtyard. In the past, Aunt Mei or Tan Youyou personally sent it over, but this time Aunt Mei didn't plan to go, and she didn't let Tan Youyou go, but sent the peach branch over.
Everything was normal in the main courtyard, but when I looked at it carefully, it was a little different, and the people talked a lot less than usual, and acted more carefully.
"Tell Miss Fifth that she has filial piety." Zhou sent away the peach branch as usual, tasted a bite of the crispy bun, and said lightly: "Very good, send two to the third lady." Tell her whether she eats or not, she likes it. ”
Yes, Tan Ruyi has not eaten a grain of rice or a drop of water since last night, and has been lying on the bed silently.
This is all because he knows that the prince of Fuwang actually came forward in person to propose marriage for Pei Rong, the son of An Lehou, and the object is herself.
This is nothing, all year round, there are many people who come to the Tan family to propose marriage, and the terrible thing is that the Zhou family did not refuse, and personally sent the matchmaker to the gate, and came to ask her what she meant.
She's definitely not going to do it, what's Anlehou? She hadn't heard of such a person since she came to Autumn City.
Broken family, who loves to marry herself, she won't marry anyway.
She objected on the spot, but Zhou said meaningfully: "You are not small, you should understand that in this world, many things are involuntary." ”
This is what she means, so Tan Ruyi began a hunger strike.
