When I came, I saw Dian Cui smiling and whispering with Aunt Xing, while boiling a stoneware jar over a small fire, and after a while, the jar came with a fragrant and mellow rice fragrance.

Seeing that it was Grandma Lu coming, Diancui hurriedly got up and saluted, and Aunt Xing also saluted each other with Grandma Lu.

"This is Madame's dinner tonight?" Grandma Lu couldn't help but ask, although this rice porridge was boiled just right, it was not a novel food.

"Grandma, don't worry, you'll know about the novelty of eating in a while." Diancui said with a smile.

"Dotted Emerald! How do you talk to your grandmother? Aunt Xing hurriedly said.

"It's okay, this girl has always been such a jumpy character, so let's wait." Instead, it was Grandma Lu who comforted Aunt Xing.

Aunt Xing nodded with a smile.

When the white rice porridge was almost ready, Diancui found a small blue and white porcelain bowl, and then walked to a clay pot, and opened it to smell the strong aroma of wine.

Grandma Lu took a closer look, but there was a small plaque jar in this clay pot, but she saw Diancui take a long noodle chopsticks, open the bamboo lid of the plaque altar, and quickly took out three small red things from it.

"This is the Yellow Sparrow?" Grandma Lu waited until she saw it clearly before she realized that it was the yellow finch after the bream.

"It's the Yellow Sparrow, I will catch it from the second young master's Keju field today, the meat of the Yellow Sparrow is tender and fresh, Mrs. Sure will like it!" Dian Cui said as he put the yellow finch into the blue and white porcelain bowl, buckled the lid of the bowl, put it in a steamer covered with lotus leaves, and steamed it over a high fire.

When steaming, it didn't last long, and after only a stick of incense, the fire was extinguished, and the three yellow finches were picked out, and the yellow finches had already shown an attractive sauce color. The whole kitchen is filled with the unique aroma of yellow finch meat and mixed with the smell of wine, which is very attractive.

Diancui also ordered a white porcelain fine pot and a small white porcelain deep plate of the same material as it. The glutinous white porridge boiled was served in the bowl, and the three yellow finches were cooled, and they were cut into pieces vertically with a quick knife by Diancui, and piled up in a deep dish. Then he put it in the hands of Grandma Lu on a tray.

"Let's wait a minute," someone buried outside, but everyone saw that it was the second young master.

Gui Zhongqing had obviously smelled the tempting aroma in the kitchen, smiled appreciatively at Dian Cui, took a honeydew melon from behind him, and said that this was a honeydew sent by his uncle from the Western Regions, and he quickly cut it and sent it to his mother.

Aunt Xing hurriedly took the melon, washed it in the cold well water, and handed it to the carving master in the kitchen, who carved three small birds with this melon, which were also placed in a white porcelain jar.

Grandma Lu was satisfied with the tray and went to the lady's courtyard with the second son.

Taking them all away, Aunt Xing looked at the happy little mouse Diancui, thoughtful.

Diancui looked forward to Mrs. liking the meals she cooked, all she made were light and delicious meals, Wu had not eaten for a long time, eat some delicious yellow finches, and then some white porridge, she would iron a lot, plus the second young master went to see it in person, Mrs. should eat more.

I thought about it, Diancui put the remaining ten yellow finches in the pot and fried them in soybean oil, the fat maid and the carving master each beat the tooth sacrifice, Aunt Xing didn't like to eat the greasy ones, so she didn't eat them, and Diancui took the rest and went to Du Xiaozhu.

"Oh, Miss Diancui is really here, we thought ......" It was one of the little guys who helped catch the yellow finch who spoke, they thought that Diancui was just talking, who would really look at a few janitorial guys in their eyes.

"I told you a long time ago, she won't lie to you if she speaks, I don't believe it." Du Xiaozhu said with some pride somehow.

"Yes, yes, you Du Xiaozhu can look at people." The little guy laughed and turned out to be the food box.

At this time, in addition to Du Xiaozhu and the others, there was another one who came to be on duty, and they also came over, a total of eight, and there were just two for each person.

After the little girl devoured it, she was still hungry, and grabbed Diancui and asked, "When will Miss Diancui catch this finch again, you must come and call a few brothers!" ”

"Let go, pull and pull what to do?" Du Xiaozhu didn't have time to spit out the bones, so he stepped forward and tore off the little guy's hand, and the little guy also felt embarrassed and scratched his head.

Diancui was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "The kitchen of the Yellow Bird West Courtyard has been collected, if a few big brothers are empty, they can go out and catch them, and if they are caught, they can be taken to Aunt Xing, this Yellow Bird has to say a lot, or the most sorghum fields in the suburbs of the city, everyone can go there to see if they are empty." ”

When a few little guys heard it, it was a good idea, if it wasn't for the Diancui girl today, they wouldn't dare to go to the second young master's juju field to catch sparrows, if they went to the outskirts of the city, it would be no problem at all.

They just don't know that the delicacy of this yellow finch has spread throughout the capital in less than a month, in addition to various mansions, even the hotel tavern uses it as a snack, which makes many more people specialize in catching yellow finches to make money, and a yellow finch can be sold for two coppers when it is the most expensive. Because Du Xiaozhu was active, he taught his younger brothers to go to the outskirts of the city to catch yellow sparrows, and even asked them to earn a lot of copper.

Let's say that since Wu Shi ate some cooking made by Cui, and his son Gui Zhongqing often talked and chatted with him, the disease was miraculously cured.

Diancui has also become a frequent visitor to her courtyard.

"Let's talk about your adoptive father Qian Laosi's family to hear about it," Wu listened to her talk about the past every day, and Diancui talked about it vividly and interestingly, but Wu could always hear the sadness and distress, but she always wanted to know more.

Sometimes she herself wondered why she was so concerned about a little girl, and sometimes she felt that maybe she was similar to Yu'er, and Yu'er never told her about it, just to know more from her. Thinking of returning to Chuyu, Wu Shi inevitably had a headache again, she didn't know how to be good to that daughter, and she wanted to be good to her, but she never appreciated it, and committed such an ugly thing, and now she had to be locked up for a while.

Dian Cui didn't expect that his own affairs would remind Wu Shi so much, but he continued with the topic last time.

"You said you made your own grass head flowers, but can you still do them now?" Wu Shi couldn't help but be curious when she heard her say to make headdresses.

Diancui nodded, and explained his method of making a head flower. Wu Shi couldn't help nodding, and glanced at Grandma Lu again, this maid does have the talent of hairpin-making. Wu Shi heard Diancui talk about Qian Laosi and his wife in order to make money to make Diancui keep making money, and couldn't help but slap the table angrily, and heard that the two of them wanted to sell Diancui to the old rich man many times, and even scolded bastards!

Diancui looked at the concern in her eyes, inevitably her nose was sore, her eye sockets were hot, she didn't feel wronged, but now she suddenly felt extremely aggrieved and sad, and she just wanted to fall into her arms and cry bitterly. But Diancui's reason told him that he couldn't do that, and he could only hold back the tears of grievance.

"It's thanks to your luck that you got that mountain ginseng, otherwise your leg will ......," Grandma Lu wiped her tears and muttered.

"That Doctor Jiang is a kind-hearted person, and I owe him ......," Wu sighed.

Diancui nodded vigorously and said with a smile: "Doctor Jiang is a good person, and there is a good reward." She inquired earlier that when Dr. Jiang returned to his hometown to worship his deceased wife and bypassed the single-plank bridge, there was no tragedy like the previous generation, and Diancui was a little relieved in her heart.

"Don't talk about the little thing of the slave maid," Diancui stood up, made a cup of Lu'an sparrow tongue tea for Wu's family, added a piece of wooden cake and put it in the teaspoon, and said with a smile: "It's a good day and it's not sunny, madam, let's go out and breathe!" ”

"You monkey, I'm afraid you're not tired of staying by yourself, and you want to go out and play!" Grandma Lu said with a smile.

"The slave maid also wants to go out to breathe, but she wants to go with her wife, I heard that the sugar gourd in the capital is big and sweet, and it is also stained with sesame seeds when it is boiled." Diancui said briskly, as if he was greedy for the sweet and sour sugar gourd.

"Then let's go, you've been in the capital for a few months, let's go out and have fun together today." Wu suddenly became childlike.

"If you want to say this sugar gourd, the biggest, sweetest, crispest and most delicious is the one at the gate of Baiyun Temple, Madam, let's go to Baiyun Temple, okay?" It was the big girl Xiyue beside the Wu family who spoke, it was rare to see Mrs. such interest, and she and Grandma Lu were happy in their hearts.

"It's okay, then go to Baiyun Temple!" Wu's mood became happier as they chattered.

Wu took Lu Grandma, Xiyue and Diancui four people to ride in a spacious carriage, driving one of the best masters in the house, it is rumored that Wu's eldest brother personally selected for his sister, after special training to respond very quickly to the guard, weekdays are not everyone, like other subordinates live in the outer courtyard, only when Wu goes out, he does not leave the left and right guards.

On this day, the weather is fine, and after the rain, it is not as hot as usual, and there seems to be some moisture in the air.

Wu couldn't help but look at it twice, this cute and loving appearance actually taught her to lose her mind a little, especially Grandma Lu's eyes widened, this maid smiled at the corners of her mouth and lifted her chest up the aisle, it really looked like when Madame was young!

This is not the first time that Grandma Lu feels like this, but she was reluctant to imagine it before, she felt too ridiculous, these days she has always dreamed of the appearance of her wife in the Wu family when she was young, and when she saw Diancui like this, she couldn't help but think deeply.

The little novice of the White Horse Temple knew Grandma Lu, because she often donated incense money for the Wu family. As for Wu's family, she came less, she went to Master Hongyi of Yanhua Temple a lot, just because she went to ask for Buddha to burn incense in order to find her daughter in the early years, and the elders of Yanhua Temple were familiar with her.

The little novice invited several distinguished guests into the hall, where the master was meditating.

After the master finished meditating, he got up and saluted Wu a few times.

"The master is polite, a few of us are here to bother today." Wu folded his hands and said politely.

Master Zhiran said: "Amitabha, I also invite the donor, mother and daughter to enter the meditation room, and the old man will cook tea for a few ......."

Before the master's words fell, Wu Shi was a little ridiculous, where did the mother and daughter come from, and inadvertently turned her head to see Grandma Lu in a daze, as if she was greatly shocked......

"Grandma?" Wu Shi called, as if Grandma Lu didn't hear it, she was shocked by Master Ran's mother and daughter, and the guess in her heart was even worse.
