72. Provocative
When the others heard this, they also sniffed their hands, only to find that there was indeed a faint aroma of osmanthus on their fingertips, but the taste of crayfish was gone.
Chu Jingfeng raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "It's so fragrant, then isn't my finger the same as a woman?" ”
Meng Wei smiled faintly: "This is only temporary, the aroma of osmanthus is just to get rid of the fishy smell of that dish, our fingers will sweat on such a hot day, I am afraid that it is a cup of tea, and the aroma of osmanthus will naturally dissipate." ”
"If that's the case, then I don't have to worry about it."
Mrs. Hou Ye was a little regretful when she heard it, but Meng Wei said that there was no way, she didn't know how to make perfume, let alone soap or anything, so she added a little soap horn to this scented water, and the osmanthus was also made of local materials, otherwise she wouldn't have so much thought to prepare for these.
After lunch, the Marquis of Huguo went out for something, and Mrs. Huguohou thought about eating so many crayfish just now, and wanted to ask Meng Wei about losing weight, so she couldn't help but borrow Meng Wei away.
When she arrived at Huiyue Garden, Mrs. Hou Ye looked worried: "Meng Wei, I ate so many little red shrimp just now, do you think my previous hard work will be wasted?" ”
"I don't know if Madame thinks she has gained something in the past few days?"
"Yes, yes, when I changed my clothes this morning, I found that the belt was a little bit more than the place where it was tied before, but I ate a little more today, and the little red shrimp was oily, wouldn't it?"
"Madame wants to ask if the hard work of the previous days will be wasted because of the meat you ate today?" Before Mrs. Hou could answer, Meng Wei put on some embarrassment: "Actually, the little red shrimp you ate today is indeed a lot, but the four princes and others were also there at that time, and the slave and maid were not good at prompting, otherwise they would really save the face of the lady." ”
When Mrs. Hou heard this, she couldn't help but be anxious: "Then, how about it?" It's hard to endure so many days, is it possible to achieve everything to zero? ”
Faced with Mrs. Hou's secret distress, Mama Gui had to comfort her: "Madam, you can't do anything if you are in such a hurry, if you drink more Pu'er, you can go as much oil as you can." ”
"In the past, as long as the food was a little fishy, Meng Wei said that she would go to the oil with Pu'er, but Mrs. ate a lot today, I'm afraid that it will not be enough to drink a few pots, according to the slave maid, Meng Wei is all to blame for this."
"What do you say? What does this have to do with Meng Wei? The presence of the four princes, Mrs. Meng Wei, was naturally not easy to remind. ”
"Madam Gui, don't say good things for Meng Wei," Yudie looked at Meng Wei, her face full of schadenfreude, "Madam, think about it, it would have been enough to eat a full meal during the banquet, if it wasn't for Meng Wei who prepared that pot of spicy little red shrimp later, you wouldn't have eaten too much, madam, so in the final analysis, it's all Meng Wei's fault, maybe she can't make you lose weight at all, so I thought of this way to let you eat more, and if you can't lose weight then, she will be able to refuse to give you the matter." ”
Meng Wei didn't expect that her embarrassment just now would make Yu Die feel like this, looking at Yu Die's self-righteous look, to be honest, Meng Wei admired Yu Die a little.
Being able to think of this kind of excuse in such a short period of time, I have to say that this Yudie can follow Mrs. Hou at a young age and become a first-class maid in front of her, it seems that in addition to this appearance, I am afraid that there are really two brushes.
If it was said that when Meng Wei came to Huiyue Garden before, Yudie just didn't give a good look on her face, but today is not only the same as in the past, but even made provocative remarks, wanting to make Madame blame her, obviously uneasy and kind.
As for the reason, Meng Wei is also very clear, probably because since she helped Mrs. Hou Ye to specify a weight loss meal, she would go to Huiyue Yuan every day or two to inquire about Mrs. Madame's physical condition and re-designate other weight loss rubs.
It is precisely because the previously designated weight loss meal is indeed effective that Mrs. Hou is more happy and believes in Meng Wei more, so in addition to having a good attitude towards Meng Wei, she also often appreciates some pastries and fabrics.
Later, Yudie asked herself to serve the little Hou Ye in Daochuan Residence, but Mrs. Hou Ye didn't refuse, but she didn't want Ye Zichuan to refuse when she knew, so Yu Die didn't have a good face for her since then.
In this regard, Meng Wei felt very helpless, the rain butterfly's thoughts were written on her face, Ye Zichuan was not a good woman, she almost didn't look at the rain butterfly on weekdays, how could she agree?
But her creed is that if anyone does not offend me, I will not offend anyone, and if anyone offends me, I will pay it back in double.
Since this rain butterfly wants to embarrass her now, she is not the kind of person who can be bullied by anyone.
Thinking of this, Meng Wei glanced at Yudie lightly, and said to Mrs. Hou Ye: "Madam, you went to the banquet yesterday, the spicy little red shrimp slave maid has already made two plates yesterday, and the little marquis and the little marquis are full of praise after eating it, but because the number of little red shrimp yesterday is not much, the marquis and the little marquis feel that the food is not enjoyable, so they instructed the slave and maid to prepare more little red prawns today, just for the four princes and the prince of Chu and Mrs. You to try it." ”
"Yesterday, the slave and maid prepared two plates, but the little marquis and the marquis were not addicted to eating, but they felt that this little red shrimp tasted very good, so the slave and maid must prepare more today," Meng Wei glanced at Mrs. Hou Ye, and saw that there was no anger on her face, so she continued, "The fourth prince is already related to the Protector Mansion, and he came to visit the little marquis, and the little slave and maid should be fully prepared. This little red shrimp is actually for the benefit of those hard-working people. ”
"What does this have to do with those people?"
Yudie glared at Meng Wei, and said lightly: "Madam, don't believe what Meng Wei said, she must be talking nonsense, and she wants to evade responsibility because of this." ”
Meng Wei was not afraid to meet her gaze: "The slave maid has something to ask Madame for forgiveness, this little red shrimp grows in the water like a crab, and can survive even in shallow waters, so many people's paddy fields have suffered because of this, and many stems have been cut off by the little red shrimp, resulting in even lower grain production." ”
"Growing up in paddy fields?" Yu Die suddenly exclaimed: "So isn't that little red shrimp like a locust or a caterpillar?" ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Hou couldn't help but turn dark, and suddenly felt a little churning in her stomach: "Meng Wei, is it true that Yudie suffered?" ”
"Madame Mingjian, if Yu Die is talking about pests that harm crops, there are indeed not many, but the slave maid informed the Hou Ye and the little Hou Ye about this matter yesterday, and they felt that they could get rid of this pest and let the people have more income, and the taste was also delicious, so they did not blame the slave and maid."
