Chapter 122: Misunderstanding
Gu Muqing asked Chunyu and Andre, who were kneeling on the ground, to get up and sit on the chair opposite her.
"I agree to the marriage of the two of you, but it's just ......"
Gu Muqing hesitated for a moment, but still spoke, "It's just that I want Chunyu to accompany me in my Xuanwang Mansion all the time, I wonder if Mr. Andre can give up his position as the imperial chef in the palace and come to my Xuanwang Mansion to be a cook and live with Chunyu in my Xuanwang Mansion?" ”
Gu Muqing felt that her idea was a little too selfish, but she couldn't help it.
She knew that what she was going to face next was something she couldn't cope with alone, although she had the blessing of Zun Mojun by her side, but she really needed someone who could speak her own heartfelt words by her side.
Although Zhinan is loyal to herself, she has other plans for Zhinan.
Andrei thought for a while, "Then the emperor's side ......"
Gu Muqing said, "As long as Mr. An is willing, the emperor will be on my side." ”
Chunyu looked at Andre beside her with a look of disbelief, she had always thought that her feelings for Andre were much more affectionate than Andre's for herself, she never imagined that today Andre would give up his good future in the palace for herself.
She looked at Andre with tears on her face, "Are you really willing?" ”
Andre looked at Chunyu with hot eyes, and his warm big hand grabbed Chunyu's slightly trembling hand, "As long as I can have you by my side in this life, even if it is the end of the world, I am willing to return to the countryside." ”
Gu Muqing looked at this happy scene, and couldn't help but applaud happily, "Today, in order to celebrate this beautiful event, Concubine Ben cooks herself, and our family eats hot pot at night!" ”
……
In the kitchen, Gu Muqing tied an apron, carried a freshly slaughtered hen, and taught Gu Muqi how to make the soup base of the hot pot.
While stewing chicken soup, she said to her sister, "If you want to keep a man's heart, you must first keep this man's stomach, this dish is a major part of my relationship with my husband, and I will teach my sister today." ”
Gu Muqi listened to Gu Muqing's words, wiped the water on his hands, and stood beside her.
watched how Gu Muqing stir-fried the ingredients and how he made the soup.
She started for Gu Muqing on the side, cutting the vegetables and beef that Gu Muqing needed, Gu Muqi, who had never done housework, was slow and clumsy in doing things, and in time, she also thought that she would learn more skills, and she would have the opportunity to be more virtuous by Zun Motian's side in the future.
The two sisters were busy in the kitchen, and the smell of the hot pot base wafted from the kitchen window to the courtyard.
Zun Mojun, who had just arrived home after the next dynasty, was changing clothes in his bedroom.
Smelling this familiar smell, he said to himself, "I was thinking about eating hot pot with my subordinates today, it seems that my wife and I really have a heart." ”
He changed out of his purple court clothes, took off his heavy black gauze hat, changed into a comfortable cotton and linen blue-green robe, his hair was freshly tied behind his head, and he shook his fan and followed the fragrance and walked to the kitchen.
Andre and Chunyu were making desserts together on the other side of the kitchen, and as soon as Zun Mojun stepped into the kitchen door, he happened to see this scene.
He scolded loudly, "Andre, what are you doing?" ”
Gu Muqing heard that it was his husband's voice, and hurriedly put down the kitchen utensils in his hand and wiped his oily hands on his apron.
ran to the door with a smile on his face, and suddenly stopped Zun Mojun's neck.
"Why is the husband yelling here, it scares the concubines."
Zun Mojun pointed at Andre and said, "This foreign cook is really a scumbag, he dares to tease your personal maid under your nose." Is this not to take you, the princess, in your eyes, or not to take me, the king of Xuan, in your eyes? As he spoke, he picked up the firewood around him and threw it at Andre.
Gu Muqing grabbed Zun Mojun's hand in time, "Husband, why are you so anxious." ”
She snatched the slightly damp firewood from the pinched handle from Zun Mojun and said, "Andre asked me for Chunyu today, and I have promised it to him." ”
Zun Mojun was confused and didn't understand what Gu Muqing meant just now, he only cared about the country and Gu Muqing on weekdays, and even if the rest happened under his nose, he didn't seem to see it.
Gu Muqing asked Chunyu to look at the base he was cooking, took the hand of this Mojun and walked outside the kitchen, fanning the wind with the lotus leaves he had freshly picked in the river.
"Today, I thought that my sister was not about to enter the palace, so I asked Mr. Andre to come over and make a few desserts for my sister to try, and I could also use the light to satisfy my hunger."
She swallowed her saliva and continued, "I didn't expect Mr. Andre to marry me after coming over, saying that he was going to marry Chunyu. ”
"Chunyu's marriage has always been a heavy burden in my heart, and I have felt more or less sparks of love between the two of them after a few contacts." Gu Muqing said and winked mischievously at Zun Mojun, "This time Mr. Andre took the initiative to propose marriage, which is indeed a matter of my heart." ”
Listening to what Gu Muqing said, Zun Mojun knew why he saw such a scene just now.
He wanted to ask Gu Muqing if she wanted to find a new maid, but after thinking about it, he hid it in his heart.
After several strong winds and waves, Gu Muqing's ability to do things was still recognized in Zun Mojun's heart, and he knew that since she could tell him about this matter, it meant that she had handled everything properly.
Zun Mojun fanned the fan in the book, took Gu Muqing's hand and moved to the edge of the fish pond in King Xuan's Mansion, and sighed.
"Husband, what the concubine told you today is a great joy, why do you sigh?"
Gu Muqing leaned on Zun Mojun's side, wanting to comfort Zun Mojun's exhaustion.
Zun Mojun frowned, thinking about the quarrel he had over in the court this morning because Zun Motian wanted to increase the annual tribute of the people, he didn't know how to explain to Gu Muqing, she was a woman, but she had extraordinary knowledge.
It is said that the harem cannot participate in the affairs of the court, but his wife is not a harem.
He thought for a long time and said to Gu Muqing, "There is a drought this year, the harvest of the people is not good, although I have recovered the border before, but the barbarians from several other directions are attacking our defense.
The soldiers' rations and the state's treasury are all income from the grain tax levied on the people every year. ”
"But this year, the people are already struggling to make a living, and the emperor actually wants to levy more taxes, and I had an argument with the emperor this morning."
