Chapter 6: Brother and Sister
Complaining is complaining, but she is a guest, so she has to go to the kitchen to serve food to these guards and servants first, according to the usual habits, these people have to eat quickly and then go outside to guard. Each table is the same dish, one for each of the big four, 10 sweet steamed buns, 20 steamed dumplings and siu mai, and a cold salad of sesame greens. She also gave each table a pot of tartary buckwheat tea, although this tea is bitter, but it is extremely refreshing for people who often go out to eat and sleep.
Back in the kitchen, Xiaobai suddenly thought of something, took out some dried scallops from the cabinet and tore them into shreds, began to soak them with a small stove with some firewood, and picked up a piece of tofu from the sink and cut it into thin slices three fingers wide, then peeled some pine nuts, cut some green onions and minced ginger for later use. After the dried scallops are ready, they set up the oil pot, first fry the front and back of the tofu until golden brown and put it aside, heat the oil again, stir-fry it with minced ginger, put in all the ingredients, and add the tender peach leaf fairy sauce carefully boiled by yourself, and the sweet and soft pine nut tofu will come out of the pot.
Xiaobai served it in a white porcelain cup painted with pink peach blossoms, and gently covered the lid. Then I used a large bowl of plum green glaze to fill some hundred-year-old good matches, and took out three bowls of hibiscus rice from the cage drawer, and then walked out.
The people in the hall had already gone outside, Xiao Bai hesitated for a long time under the stairs, the position of the private room was only two steps above the ground, the rouge wood made a fence, and the door was hung with a curtain embroidered with Momofuku Boy, but Xiao Bai still decided not to meet.
"Ah Yun!" Xiaobai shouted inside.
The four of them were taken aback, but Ah Chun reacted first, held Ah Yun and walked out. Xiaobai saw that it was her who came out, but he didn't say anything, anyway, don't be Ah He. She held up the tray in her hand. Ah Chun bent down to take it, and wanted to say a few words, but Xiaobai turned around.
As soon as she wanted to leave, she heard someone inside calling her name: "Xiaobai! Come in and talk. ”
Xiao Bai turned his head slightly, and saw a pair of beige brocade shoes, hidden in a pure white dress embroidered with hibiscus flowers, and hesitated to come out. But after waiting for a while, it was so long that Xiaobai's neck was sore, and the owner of the shoes still didn't move. Xiaobai sneered, stared ahead, and strode out of the hall.
Ah He lifted the curtain and walked out, a little angry: "How can this be! It's been so long, why are you still so careful! It's not our miss's fault! Obviously, we have already taken the initiative to come, why are you still spilling all your anger on us! ”
"Shut up!" Ah Yun came out and grabbed her, and when she saw the thing in Ah Chun's hand, her heart, which was still a little resentful, suddenly disappeared. "Give it to me." She took the tray.
Back in the private room, the girl had already sat down, staring straight out the window, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Miss." Ah Yun gently put down the tray and put the white porcelain cup in front of her, then lifted the lid, and her eyes turned red. "You see, the white girl is not angry, but she hasn't seen her for a long time, and she is a little rusty." After Ah Yun said this, he stopped saying a word and put the spoon in his young lady's hand.
"Alright, let's eat, I'll have to go back early." The spoon touched the white porcelain cup, and the girl's heart instantly became a soft mess.
Ah He didn't pay attention to it, but when he saw what Xiaobai was about to come up, he was also blocked. It used to be like their second home, but now? Since that incident, the young lady and the white girl have never spoken again, and during the New Year's Festival, even if the old lady personally invites her, she will not see the white girl come back.
"What is this!" Ah He swallowed a mouthful of chicken meatballs that he hadn't chewed much, and felt that he was about to cry. She is like this, her mouth is powerful, but her heart is the softest.
"I love this one the most, it's still the same taste." Ah Chun went straight to the point, not only cared about the current atmosphere, her favorite boiled sweet and silky soft-hearted eggs, she could eat five in one go.
"The taste of this tofu bubble hasn't changed." Ah Yun took a bite, but his tongue was burned by the soup that had not yet cooled down.
The two of them just laughed at her, saying that they didn't pay attention, and the girl had quickly finished eating the pine nut tofu, and was now full of sadness.
"Miss, don't be sad, it's been so long, the white girl has long forgotten." Ah Yun put the hot tea on the table, and he couldn't help but speak. This season, Miss's dizziness will be particularly bad, and it will be a white girl, not to say that pine nuts are good for Miss's illness, and she always used to make some pine nuts to eat.
"Don't talk about it." She let out a leisurely sigh. Stood up. "Go back, thanks to you today, otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to eat this dish."
Ah Yun looked at his young lady's eyes full of gratitude, and thought to himself that what the eldest young master said was really right, how could he break it off after six years of affection, "The slave didn't do anything, it was the young lady and the white girl who had a deep relationship. That's it. ”
"I know what you want." The girl smiled. Walked down the stairs. Ah Yun just wanted to call Xiaobai over to pay for the meal, but the girl stopped her, "No need to shout, I know she is there." Her eyes looked at the small door, and she guessed correctly, because a slender shadow was writhing restlessly, and Xiaobai was on the side of the door. Put this on the counter. ”
Ah Yun took the purse, and the three of them were a little surprised, this time they went to Xiyue City, and the biggest gain was the glass bracelet in it. Weiyang Jin is the only one, and it was won by Miss who won the first place in the competition.
"Let's prepare some more when we go back." Ah Yun whispered.
"Doesn't she like Ruri? She can't look down on anything else, let's go quickly, my mother should be in a hurry. ”
When he walked to the door, Ah Yun glanced back. She always felt that it would not be long before she could return to this home again.
"Let's go!" Ah He poked his head out of the carriage. Seeing a figure shaking in the door to welcome guests, he hurriedly called his own lady.
Looking at each other, Xiaobai was frozen by this sudden scene. saw that the girl, Lin Wenjuan, the eldest lady of the Huixian county magistrate's family, was looking at herself from the window, just like when she lowered her head and asked her if she needed help, it was reassuring.
Lin Wenjuan nodded slightly, smiled shallowly, and the impetuous mood of the two settled at this moment.
Glass bracelet, from the most famous store in Qingguo in the past 100 years, Weiyang brocade, the origin of glass is extraordinary, naturally it is also a rare thing, and the texture of this string is even more amazing, just like a clear stream between the ice and snow in winter, pure and not like the world. Each of the twelve pillars is full and round, and when you hold it in your hand, you have a cold touch.
Xiaobai couldn't say whether she liked it or not, because she knew that if it weren't for the emperor's will, it would be impossible for mortals like them to see it, let alone have it. And Lin Wenjuan traveled thousands of miles to Xiyue City, passed all the way, stood out among the pride of the sky, and finally won the prize, which was so easily given to herself, so, she had to think about what was the reason for this, and who this bracelet was originally given to.
This doubt kept her awake all night.
After dawn on the second day, she opened the door with two panda eyes to welcome guests. Some regular customers also joked to her if there was too much money to count. She had no choice but to laugh.
Fortunately, there is nothing to bother making today. Everyone is in a hurry and will not make many stops. Xiaobai just repeated the action of the assembly line, took the food box, filled it, wrapped the staple food with oiled paper, then packed some side dishes, and finally checked out.
Just after Shen Shi, Xiao Bai was sitting behind the counter dozing off, and a male voice came from outside the door: "Xiao Bai! Xiaobai was excited, and just wanted to respond, but suddenly felt that this voice was familiar, and before he knew who it was, the man walked in.
The son is like jade, elegant as mist, and his tall and elegant figure is hidden from the sun, but he has the beauty alone. His appearance is not very handsome, but it is difficult to ignore, and Xiaobai can't even say, which point of him is so attractive? So many girls flock to it.
"I haven't seen you for a year, are you about to forget what I look like?" He smiled lightly, and there was a slight hint of teasing on his eyebrows, and Xiaobai couldn't help but smile.
"You're here?" She straightened her face and stepped out from behind the counter. Looking at his most modest smile, but there was something indescribable, Xiaobai's face suddenly turned cold.
Lin Wenhai saw that she changed her face several times after such a while, and felt a little interesting. Pretending not to easily cover his lips, he couldn't help but curl his lips. Then he said, "Guess what I mean so quickly?" ”
