Chapter Ninety-One: Touching Porcelain and Making Friends
Tong Qingyan is used to living alone, and now that she has arrived in the palace, she has to live in a courtyard for three people, and choosing a good neighbor is the first thing.
sent Feiyan to Song Zhan early to ask for a roster of female dependents, and Tong Qingyan realized that she didn't seem to have any friends in the capital.
In this case, it seems a little inappropriate to take the initiative to find someone to form a team to live in a courtyard, but waiting to be picked is not his own style of acting, so Tong Qingyan plans to "touch porcelain".
Su Yao, the concubine of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, Su Zhao's own sister, became Tong Qingyan's first porcelain object.
As soon as they arrived at the palace, everyone got off the carriage and got off the horse, and Tong Qingyan took Feicui to wait for Su Yao to get off the carriage and slowly leaned over.
Su Miao wanted to find his brother as soon as he got out of the carriage, but before going out, he was warned by his mother not to be presumptuous, so he didn't dare to be too happy, so he just followed the crowd and walked slowly to the palace.
Su Miao just wanted to bend down to pick up the purse, but a hand picked it up first, patted the dust on it, and handed it over.
"Thank you."
Su Yao looked at the woman in front of him who was about the same age as herself, bent her eyes, and thanked her.
"With a gesture, my surname is Tong, Xingsan, you are Miss Su, right?"
"Oh, it's His Royal Highness the County Lord. The folk girl has seen the county lord, and the county lord is blessed. β
Tong Qingyan hurriedly stretched out her hand to support Su Jiao, who wanted to salute, such a cute girl and Su Zhao really have a similar temper, her tone is timeless, and she is a gentle person at first glance, I really don't know how Master Su, who is good at using punishment, raised such a child, and the contrast is too great.
"I don't like these false courtesies, you just call my name, I invite you to eat delicious food, you must not have eaten it, I just hope that you are not the county lord and the county lord is short, I have a sore ear when I hear it."
Su Miao blinked, why is this county lord so much different from the rumored? But she liked it very much, so she smiled and nodded, and sweetly called Tong Qingyan "Sister Qingyan".
Tong Manji is his sister-in-law, the three girls in Tongfu have all listened to their mother's chatter, and this county lord is the key object of recitation, and he even knows her birthday, so he called out his sister without pressure.
Tong Qingyan felt that this start was very good, and the cute girl didn't refuse, so it shouldn't be difficult to put forward the suggestion of living in the same yard next, but she didn't expect Su Miao to mention it first.
"Does Sister Qingyan want to live in a courtyard with me?"
"Huh? I wanted to ask you. β
"That's good, Sister Dong and I have already agreed, and now there are exactly three of you with you."
The sister Dong in Su Yao's mouth is Ran Qiu's sister Ran Dong, a woman who is not inferior to Ran Gongzi.
Ran Dong didn't like to deal with royal women very much, at first when he saw Su Miao pulling Tong Qingyan, the county lord, to the courtyard, his face was not very good-looking, because of Su Yao's face and the marriage between the Su family and the Tong family, he couldn't help but didn't say anything unpleasant, but no one was blind on that face, and he could see it.
Su Yao took advantage of the gap when Ran Dong was packing up his things in his house, slipped into Tong Qingyan's house, and explained for Ran Dong.
"Just because I was ridiculed by the Seventh Princess once, I don't like the royal girl? This Ran Dong is quite temperamental, but I'm not a royal person. β
"But you're the county lord, and you're half a royal girl. Sister Dong is very good, but she doesn't like to walk and sit down in a regular manner, and she doesn't like to read and learn words, and she doesn't talk to the princess. β
"Well, what does she like?"
Su Miao looked at Tong Qingyan who was touching her chin and blinked.
"What are you going to do?"
"Of course it's to make something delicious to please her, you can't face her every day, right?"
"That's right, Sister Dong likes spicy food."
Tong Qingyan thought about it for a while, called Feicui, and fluently reported a bunch of ingredients and utensils, Su Yao's eyes widened more and more, and when Feicui left, she sighed with big eyes.
"Sister Qingyan is so powerful, she can get so many ingredients from the imperial chef."
"Of course not, I'm just a county lord, not a princess."
"How do you ...... that?"
"Have you forgotten who I was betrothed to? With the name of the prince of Huai, I still want to come to this order of food and utensils. β
Su Miao nodded clearly, not thinking that there was anything wrong with Tong Qingyan using her fiancΓ©'s name for personal gain.
Ran Dong ran to Su Yao's house in a hurry and didn't find anyone, and when he walked out of the house, he saw Feicui followed by a sneaker and entered Tong Qingyan's house with various ingredients.
Feicui, who served Tong Qingyan to eat the pot many times, had already processed all the ingredients and brought them back with crushed ice without her instructions, saving Tong Qingyan a lot of steps, and was praised by her.
Su Yao also praised generously: "How can Sister Qingyan's maid be so useful, it is really well taught." β
Tong Qingyan raised her eyebrows proudly and raised a big smile at Su Yao.
"I can't say how to teach, the key is to have a good provenance, Feicui used to be a subordinate of His Royal Highness the Prince."
Su Miao pursed her lips, no wonder her mother kept saying that the third lady of the Tong family had a good life, it really couldn't be compared.
"Eating a pot on a hot day βββ a hot day is not light."
Tong Qingyan Su Miao looked at the door when she heard the sound, Ran Dong was leaning against the door and looking at a table of ingredients with a mocking expression, Su Miao hurriedly stood up and pulled people in.
"Sister Dong, sit down, Sister Qingyan specially prepared it for you."
With Su Yao's words, Tong Qingyan didn't know where to find a bottle, opened the cork and handed it over and shook it.
"The butter and spicy soup I boiled myself, you definitely can't eat it outside. The mandarin duck pot comes with it, you just say whether to eat it or not, if you don't eat it......"
"What if you don't eat it?!"
Ran Dong raised his head high, trying his best to ignore the lingering aroma on the tip of his nose, this fragrant and spicy smell is delicious, take this soup and eat it in a pot, it must be delicious......
"If you don't eat, the door is there, and you won't be far away."
"You! Slim, let's go! Who's rare?! β
"I'm rare, Sister Dong, I think Sister Qingyan's soup is so fragrant, I want to taste it......"
"Slender ......" Ran Dong stroked his heart with great injury, and looked at Su Miao, who was sitting firmly on the stool, in disbelief, "You obviously don't eat spicy food!" What's more, eating spicy pot on such a hot day......"
"There is a lot of ice in Sister Qingyan's house, which is quite cool."
β......β
When Su Yao and Ran Dong were fighting, Tong Qingyan was already busy, and when the spicy pot was processed and a bunch of ingredients were put down to boil, the aroma of the butter spicy pot in the heat became stronger and stronger.
Ran Dong stood there and wanted to leave, but his legs didn't move, seeing that Su Miao and Tong Qingyan had finished a whole plate of beef, Ran Dong sat down, picked up chopsticks and began to grab meat.
Tong Qingyan didn't say much from beginning to end, the three of them were grabbing the things in the spicy pot to eat, and they didn't touch the side of the soup much.
At the end of the meal, the cheeks of the three people were flushed, and their mouths kept sucking, and they didn't know who laughed first, anyway, in the end, all three laughed.
Let's just say that there is nothing that can't be solved by one pot, and if there is, then two.
