Chapter 424

There are a lot of daughters who can write well, in previous years, it is not that there are no girls from the family who have entered the palace to copy Buddhist scriptures for the Queen Mother, but like Miss Gu Er, she can use the pen with both hands together, and write exactly the same two fonts, without a trace of messiness, which is very rare. "Miss Gu Er is really a good skill." The palace maid said sincerely.

Gu Ruoxi smiled lowly, said a word that was not appropriate, and continued to bow her head and write hard, she could write with both hands, that was still forced when she used to go to school, when she made a mistake, the teacher would let people write the school rules or review one or twenty times, in order to reduce the time of writing, and only in this way, there were still a lot of children's shoes that could have this skill, if Gu Ruoxi was not because he used a brush, the writing speed would be faster.

The palace maid stood quietly for a while, and found that the speed at which the girl copied the scriptures was too fast, and she didn't know how much faster than others, so she secretly wrote down the number of pages that Gu Ruoxi had copied, and quietly returned it to the queen mother.

"What? You say she copied the scriptures with both hands, faster than the average person? The Queen Mother was having breakfast slowly, and when she heard this, she was greatly surprised.

"It's true, Queen Mother." The maid of the palace replied, and immediately said, "The slave maid is standing beside her today and watching her write, and she has now copied the sixth page of the Lotus Sutra. ”

"So much for both?" The Queen Mother asked in surprise.

The palace maid nodded immediately.

The Queen Mother thought for a moment, and a shallow smile appeared on her lips: "This second lady of the ancient family is more interesting than her sister!" No wonder Jing'er likes her! ”

As soon as these words came out, a hint of gloom flashed over the face of a palace maid who had been standing on the left side of the main hall, but she was soon hidden and no one found out.

"Alright, you stand down! Serve Miss Gu Er well, you know? The Queen Mother commanded in a stern tone.

"Yes, sissy." The palace maid immediately nodded.

The Queen Mother sat there with a somewhat unpredictable look on her face.

Liang Rujun only entered the palace after noon, when the Queen Mother had already taken a nap, Aunt Jingyue considered that Gu Ruoxi was still working hard in the small Buddhist room, so she took Liang Rujun to the Buddhist room to copy the scriptures.

"Miss Liang, your task in the past three days is to copy the scriptures with Miss Gu Er, she has already copied part of it for you, and now you continue to copy, when the Queen Mother wakes up, I will take you to see her." Jingyue Road.

Liang Rujun has rarely spoken since she entered the palace, and after listening to Jingyue's words at this time, she immediately nodded and said, "There is Aunt Lao." ”

At this time, when Gu Ruoxi heard the movement, she had already put down the brush, slowly stood up from the front of the short table, and when she turned around, she saw Liang Rujun and Jingyue walking in together, and she hurriedly said: "Ruoxi has seen Aunt Jingyue and Miss Liang." ”

"Miss Gu Er, hello, let's

We meet again. Liang Rujun stared at Gu Ruoxi's face with a pair of eyes, and said with a smile.

Gu Ruoxi smiled and didn't say anything.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little cold, Jing Yue immediately smiled and said, "That's it, you don't have to be so nervous, since you will all have to copy the scriptures here for the next three days, let's be good companions to each other!" ”

She actually knew that there was a slight difference between the two people

When the Queen Mother looked at those dishes, she showed a disgusted expression on her face: "It's always these big fish and big meat that come and go!" I'm tired of eating! Tell them all to get down! ”

When Jingyue heard this, she immediately waved her hand, and immediately walked over to the palace eunuch, and quietly removed all the dishes on the table without making a sound.

"Then, Niangniang, what do you want to eat today, the slave and maid told them to prepare." Jingyue said immediately.

When the Queen Mother heard this, she frowned and thought for a moment, but suddenly said, "Go and call the girl from the Gu family!" See what great ideas she has. ”

"Yes! Empress! Jingyue answered and immediately retreated.

The Queen Mother immediately closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

Jingyue walked all the way to the Buddhist room, but as soon as she entered, she was immediately taken aback: "Xiaoluo, aren't you serving Miss Liang?" Why did you come to Miss Gu? There was a hint of fierceness in her voice.

Xiao Luo was startled, and hurriedly turned around and said, "Aunt Jingyue, you listen to what the slave maid said......"

"Say what?" Jing Yue said angrily: "You were ordered by Niangniang to serve Miss Liang, but you had the audacity to go to Miss Gu to do something?" What is this not dereliction of duty? Pear, come here! Continue to serve Miss Gu! ”

After listening to the reprimand, the little palace maid who had been serving Gu Ruoxi since last night immediately stood up from Liang Rujun and returned to Gu Ruoxi's side. There was a hint of horror on the little round face: "Aunt Jingyue, the slave maid is not deliberate, it's just that Miss Liang only came today, and there are many things she doesn't understand, so ......"

"Not so much, so!" Jing Yue interrupted her sharply and said, "The Queen Mother is a leaf row, you can do it!" Those who do not obey orders will be punished, come and drag Xiaoluo down, and the rod will be punished twenty! ”

As soon as the words fell, two eunuchs rushed in from the door, and reached out to pull Xiaoluo. She screamed in fright, suddenly rushed forward and hugged Gu Ruoxi's legs, and said with tears streaming down her face: "Miss Gu Er, say something!" If you don't agree, the slave doesn't have the courage to swap pears with Xiao Li! ”

Gu Ruoxi really wanted to kick her away, and when this palace maid just came in, her eyes kept looking at her. As soon as Liang Rujun asked her to do something, she pushed that she wouldn't, so she turned around pitifully and asked Xiaoli, one sentence after another, the noisy Gu Ruoxi was annoying, so she asked the two of them to switch, because she almost didn't need the palace maid to do anything here.

I didn't expect to be reprimanded at this moment, and she was about to hit the board, but she relied on herself! How is she

Why don't you go to Lai Liang Rujun?

Gu Ruoxi took the time to glance at Liang Rujun, not missing the flash of schadenfreude in her eyes.

When Gu Ruoxi came into contact with such a gaze, the anger on his face slowly dissipated. She turned her head, glanced at Jingyue and said, "Auntie, Xiao Luo is right, since she just came, she doesn't know anything, so she has been asking Xiao Li what she should do." The courtiers were troublesome and felt that they should help Miss Liang, so they asked them to change. ”

Liang Rujun also echoed on the side: "I'm sorry, I'm causing trouble for everyone." She just rightly expressed a weak and silly white lotus to the fullest. If Gu Ruoxi didn't know what she had done, she would really be sympathetic to Liang Rujun like this.

"Really?" When Jing Yue heard this, she turned her head to look at Xiao Luo suspiciously, and said, "Since you don't know anything, why are you rushing here to serve?" There are many palace maids in this palace who have served in the Buddhist room, since this is the case, then you can go back with me! I know the Queen Mother, just change someone else. As he spoke, he waved his hand and motioned for the guards to drag Xiaoluo away.

"Auntie! The slave has learned! Already learned! Xiao Luo saw that she was going to be taken away, and the opportunity she had worked so hard to win was so lost, she was very unwilling, and immediately yelled.

Gu Ruoxi glanced at her expressionlessly and didn't say anything.

"Already learned?" Jingyue asked suspiciously.

Xiaoluo immediately nodded like pounding garlic: "Learned!" Never bother people again! ”

"That's good." Jingyue motioned for the guards to let go of her, looked at Xiao Luo and said, "Now you know who you should serve?" ”

Xiao Luo nodded, wiped the tears from her face, and slowly walked to Liang Rujun's low table and stood up.

Seeing that she finally understood what she meant, Jing Yue immediately turned to Xiao Li and said, "You go and serve Miss Gu Er!" Remember, you can't leave here for three days! ”

"Yes! Aunt! Xiao Li immediately responded.

Jingyue turned her head to Gu Ruoxi and said, "Second Miss Gu, the Queen Mother is invited, let's go!" ”

"The Queen Mother invited me?" Gu Ruoxi raised his head in surprise.

Jingyue smiled slightly and said, "Niangniang said, Miss Gu Er has been working hard from last night to now, so please go out for a walk." ”

"Then there's Aunt Law." Gu Ruoxi didn't want to say anything polite, because even if she said it, she would go to see the Queen Mother later, so why did she waste her tongue?

The two men walked out hand in hand. Xiao Li naturally stayed in front of Gu Ruoxi's case every step of the way.

Liang Rujun raised his head and looked at the two people who disappeared at the door, and then lowered his head casually to carefully copy the scriptures.

She copied it from scratch, even if Gu Ruoxi went out for an hour or two,

She can't catch up either.

But Xiao Luo, who was standing on the side, didn't think like this in her heart.

She looked at the thick stack of copied scriptures on Gu Ruoxi's case, and her eyes flashed.

The words are divided into two ends.

Gu Ruoxi came to the queen mother's bedroom, and as soon as she knelt down to invite Ye, the queen mother waved her hand and said, "You get up!" Miss Gu Er, your hands are very skillful, the mourning family doesn't have much appetite to eat today, can you make one or two fresh dishes for the mourning family to taste? ”

Cook?

Gu Ruoxi raised her eyes and glanced at the Queen Mother, and said busily: "The courtier's slight craftsmanship can enter the eyes of the Queen Mother, which is the courtier's luck, but I don't know, what do you probably want to eat today, Queen Mother?" The courtiers have a general direction, so they can cook. ”

She didn't even have the slightest surprise or ecstasy.

The Queen Mother saw Gu Ruoxi's expression, and the admiration in her heart was a little more, but her face was still expressionless: "You can do it at will!" It's just that don't get those meat dishes, the mourning family doesn't like to eat those greasy dishes. ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she already had a foundation in her heart about what to cook later, and she immediately nodded and said, "Yes, Queen Mother." ”

Jingyue immediately said: "Second Miss Gu, come with the slave maid!" Now that it's past lunchtime, and the mother hasn't eaten anything, you need to hurry. ”

"Courtier, thank you aunt for reminding me." Gu Ruoxi hurriedly said.

She immediately followed Jingyue to the kitchen.

……

Jinye Houfu, Luomei Curie.

Because Gu Ruoxi is not there, several little girls in Luomei Curie have felt panicked recently, and everyone is praying in their hearts for the return of their young lady Pingye, except for going to the kitchen to get three meals a day, they rarely walk around the house. It's getting worse and worse that there is no sense of existence in this Hou Mansion.

Jinye Hou came to the door once, but Gu Ruoxi was not there, so he didn't come again, Liuli looked at it, but found that the sorrow between his eyebrows was gradually aggravated.

Come to think of it, Master Hou is really worried about their young lady!

Liuli sighed, but there was a hint of relief in her heart, it was so good, in this big Hou Mansion, there was still someone who was really good to their young lady.

On this day, it was snowing heavily, and it happened to be Jinse's turn to go to the kitchen to get the meal, and Liuli told her to let her go out.

Jin Se wore a thick cotton jacket and went out tightly. Fortunately, the location of Luomei Ju and Mrs. Jinye Hou live in the Jinghong Courtyard can not be compared, the location is a little biased, but it happens to be very close to the big kitchen, it only takes a quarter of an hour to walk back and forth on weekdays, and it snows today, and Jin Se will walk a little slowly.

After receiving the food from the kitchen, Jin Se felt a little cold on her body, so on the way back, she couldn't help but speed up her steps.

But she didn't go far before she was stopped by the four big and three rough housekeepers.

"Sister Jinse, you get the food

Yes! One of them asked with a smile.

Jin Se took a few steps back, protected the rice basket in front of her chest, and stared at these little guys very vigilantly, she recognized them, they were the people in the courtyard of the eldest young master!

A trace of bad feeling welled up in his heart, and Jin Se immediately said loudly: "What do you want to do?" ”

"We don't do anything! Sister Jinse is so beautiful, why don't you play with us? A few of the little guys giggled, but they quickly gathered around.

Jinse turned and ran.

But how can she, a woman, outrun a few big men? didn't run a few steps before he was caught by these people.

"What do you want to do? Let go of me! Jin Se shouted anxiously.

In the process of Jin Se's fierce struggle, the rice basket fell to the ground, and the food was spilled all over the ground, and before she could react, she found that she had been carried by these strong little guys like chickens and quickly walked to a remote place.

"You let go of ......," Jin Se had just shouted, and one of the little servants pulled out a rag and quickly gagged her. She couldn't shout anymore. But in the end, she has a pungent temperament, and she almost used all her strength to struggle, and the four living big men almost didn't grasp it steadily, so that she broke free.

The first one, seeing that she was so stubborn, her eyes sank, and she immediately raised her palm and slapped the back of Jinse's neck fiercely!

Jin Seden fainted, her body fell limply, and several men worked together to quickly carry her out of here.

……

Gu Ruoxi was nervously busy in the imperial dining room, and the Queen Mother didn't like to eat meaty and greasy things, so she made three quite refreshing green vegetables on a whim, and boiled a little yellow, orange and orange millet porridge. This is also because of the lack of time, she has to hurry.

Gu Ruoxi knew that the Queen Mother had eaten a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and she would definitely be impressed by these porridge dishes, not because she did it well, but because the chefs in the imperial dining room did not dare to bring such ordinary dishes to the Queen Mother's table.

But Gu Ruoxi dared.

Taking advantage of the cooking effort, she also used the existing materials in the kitchen to make a bean cake, which is fresh and salty, fragrant, and when it comes out of the pot, a few chefs in the kitchen who are ready to do it straight smoke.

She put these dishes on a plate and presented them to the Queen Mother by the palace people. From beginning to end, Aunt Jingyue had been standing aside and watching her movements.

Gu Ruoxi also followed, after all, the Queen Mother was not satisfied with what she ate, and she was unhappy, she still had to know this.

When the Queen Mother saw the green vegetables on the dinner plate, she was stunned, she said that it should be simpler, but she didn't expect Gu Ruoxi to dare to really make such a simple dish for her!

But because she had tasted Gu Ruoxi's craftsmanship before, the Queen Mother was not much disappointed.

As usual, by the quiet

After Aunt Yue tried the dishes one by one, the Queen Mother slowly stretched out her chopsticks and grabbed a bean cake, put it on the side of her mouth and took a bite. This one is the most fragrant, so she naturally wants to taste this first.

Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the taste is fresh and salty, and it is very refreshing.

The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes and praised: "This is a good job!" ”

"Empress Dowager Xie's praise!" Gu Ruoxi hurriedly said.

The Queen Mother tasted these dishes on the table one by one, and even drank the porridge in front of her, she only felt that her stomach was very comfortable, and it was very different from the feeling after dinner on weekdays, and she immediately praised it again: "You are really good." ”

Gu Ruoxi smiled lightly and did not answer.

In order to avoid reminding the Queen Mother of the dishes she had made before pretending to be blue, Gu Ruoxi racked her brains to think of some dishes that she had never cooked, and now that she had finally passed the test, she was finally relieved in her heart.

"Miss Gu Er, you can also go down to eat! Don't rush back to the Buddhist room after dinner, the mourning family still wants to see you and Miss Liang. The Queen Mother said.

"Yes, sissy." Gu Ruoxi blessed her body and slowly retreated.

When she returned to the back room to eat, she saw that Liang Rujun had already sat down at the dinner table, as if she was waiting for her. And the palace maid named Xiao Luo was serving on the side.

"Second Miss Gu, you're finally back, hurry up and eat!" Liang Rujun said with a smile. On the long handsome bar.

"Miss Liang eats first when she is hungry, so you don't have to wait for me." Gu Ruoxi said lightly, said, walked over and sat down at the dinner table.

Liang Rujun opened his eyes and glanced at Gu Ruoxi, and said with a smile: "When I entered the palace, I used some food at home, but now I'm not too hungry, so why wait for Miss Gu Er?" As he spoke, he picked up the silver chopsticks on the table and handed them to Gu Ruoxi and said, "Miss Gu, please." ”

Gu Ruoxi looked down at the pair of chopsticks, smiled lightly, and said, "Miss Liang, you don't have to be polite. But he didn't reach out to pick it up, but said to Xiao Li, who had already followed up: "Xiao Li, take out my tableware!" ”
