Chapter 357: Jasper Cake
As soon as An Ge and Huang Yingying entered the backyard, a force pulled An Ge out of the corridor, An Ge didn't have time to react to himself, he only felt that the world was spinning for a while, and in the next moment, a somewhat cold palm covered her lips, leaning against her against the wall, the man's other hand held an umbrella, hanging down in the direction of the attic, and used this umbrella to block him and An Ge tightly.
Even if anyone noticed them in the attic, they could only see Ange's skirt under the umbrella and the man's muddy boots.
An Ge looked at the person in front of him in a daze, and his heart couldn't help beating wildly, it was actually ...... It's Yin Mu.
Why is the emperor here?!
Ange suddenly realized something...... Huang Yingying said that Jing Lan was here, and Wang Yiyao said that Jing Lan, who had always been tired of socializing, had a relationship with Xu Qiyan and Shen Xiaopapa, and now Yin Mu is also here.
Several of the most powerful young men in the court have appeared, and there must be something big.
Yin Mu's breath almost slapped on her face, and whispered to her: "Don't go over, don't make Jinglan embarrassed." ”
An Ge nodded, she already knew that things were not simple, so naturally she would not be willful.
Huang Yingying ran back in shame, and when she reached the end of the corridor, she found that An Ge was actually here, and she was still in such an ambiguous posture in the arms of a strange man and under the umbrella, so angry that she pointed at her and said, "You actually didn't go with me!" Do you know how humiliated we are! ”
An Ge immediately left from Yin Mu's arms, Yin Mu was still holding an umbrella like that, leaning towards An Ge, blocking An Ge from the people in the opposite building.
Huang Yingying saw that An Ge didn't speak, and glanced at Yin Mu again, seeing that he looked young and handsome, and was dressed very ordinary, thinking that he was also a little guy in this building, so she said to An Ge with disdain: "It's really shameless, it turns out that you are not a good thing, and you also have a good relationship in this building?" You little guy looks good, how much silver is an hour? Are you comfortable serving? It just so happens that your father-in-law is also playing with a girl over there, why don't you go and get a foursome, and save money by running errands in one bed! ”
She actually regarded the dignified emperor as a little man, and said such speechless things in front of him...... An Ge sighed silently in his heart, although he didn't like Huang Yingying, he didn't have any deep hatred, and he couldn't watch her seek death.
An Ge glanced at Yin Mu, and when he saw Yin Mu's cold face, he hurriedly reminded Huang Yingying: "He is not a little girl, he is a ......."
She glanced at Yin Mu again, and saw that he didn't mean anything that she couldn't say, so she continued: "Huang Yingying, this is the emperor." ”
Huang Yingying didn't believe it, she stared at Yin Mu with her eyes for a while, and suddenly her eyes widened in shock, covering her mouth with a look of disbelief.
It's not that she hasn't seen the emperor before, she remembered, one year she went with her mother to meet the queen's mother, and she looked at the emperor from a distance, and he seemed to look like this.
She wanted to pretend not to believe it and had no courage, her head buzzed, she forgot to breathe for a while, and she was stunned for a few breaths before she realized how dangerous she was at this time, and knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "The emperor ...... The emperor spared his life, but the courtiers didn't know ......"
Huang Yingying couldn't help whimpering, her eyes were blurred, and she knelt on the ground and shivered.
Obviously, the emperor also knows her and knows whose daughter she is...... She bowed her head deeply, only feeling like a man's back.
Yin Mu didn't feel sorry for her, and said, "Get out, remember to keep your mouth shut, and don't divulge everything you see today." ”
Huang Yingying's heart was about to jump out of her throat, and she immediately nodded like pounding garlic: "Yes, the courtiers will never mention what they saw today to anyone!" ”
With that, he got up from the ground and ran quickly to the outside of the building.
Yin Mu's umbrella was still covering An Ge, and he didn't care if his own shoulders were wet from the rain that shuttled in, staring at An Ge for a long time, and finally covering up the other meanings, only explaining to her: "Jinglan is really doing something for me, that's why I'm here." ”
An Ge's face was as usual, and he smiled: "Thank you for the emperor's explanation for my father-in-law, I won't doubt him." And I didn't plan to come over today, I only came here because I had an agreement with Huang Yingying. ”
The implication is that you don't need to explain anything for Jinglan at all.
How could Yin Mu not hear it, his eyes were lost for a moment, he should have known that An Ge and Jing Lan were almost one, and others couldn't insert them at all, what was he still looking forward to?
An Ge was silent for a moment, then bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the courtiers have taken their leave first." ”
Yin Mu nodded and handed the umbrella to her: "Take it." ”
An Ge shook his head again and again: "Thank you, Emperor, but don't worry, the courtier's carriage is outside." The emperor still holds the umbrella himself, so as not to get cold in the dragon's body. ”
Yin Mu chuckled: "Take it, otherwise because you are sick in the rain, Jinglan will still spare energy to take care of you, and she will not be able to concentrate on doing things for me." ”
When he said this, An Ge didn't want to entangle with him too much, it was just an umbrella, so he reached out and took it, thanked him again and again, and left.
In the evening of this day, after the rain, the sky is clear, the blue sky is like washing, and the sunset on the horizon is layered on top of each other, and the fiery red is like an autumn maple forest.
Jing Lan hadn't come back yet, but Liu Pingle came, and the smile on his face couldn't be hidden from the moment he stepped into the gate of the General's Mansion, and he shouted when he came in: "An Ge!" Guess what I've heard? ”
Seeing that she was so happy, it was estimated that Huang Yingying really went back to tell her father about the divorce as agreed, so she smiled and said, "Huang Yingying took the initiative to divorce your family Master Xu?" ”
Liu Pingle snorted: "What face does she have to take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage?" Someone told me that it was Lord Xu who knew that Huang Yingying actually went to the building in Rouge Hutong to find happiness, and Lord Xu knew about it, and Lord Xu went to the door to withdraw from the marriage! ”
An Ge's eyes turned, no wonder Huang Yingying's face was so ugly when she left the building, it turned out that she had been discovered.
Liu Pingle said again: "Huang Yingying really deserves it, she behaves debauchedly and thinks she can hide it from everyone!" ”
"She may have just been curious to go over and take a look, but I don't see that she is the kind of person who is obsessed with sound." An Ge said with a smile, "Now that your wish has come true, don't go looking for more enemies, if Huang Yingying no longer provokes us in the future, let's ignore her." ”
"Don't worry, I'm not sick, I'm looking for trouble everywhere." Liu Pingle propped his chin, and when he thought of missing an obstacle, he couldn't help laughing, "Xu Qiyan is indeed a big boss, I have to make persistent efforts." ”
An Ge smiled and nodded.
Liu Pingle was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "I'm really happy today, you go out to eat with me, there is a harem cultural and creative in the capital, I heard that they have a new pastry there, called jasper makeup into a tree cake, it is said to be made of mung beans and glutinous rice, although it is a pastry but verdant like jade, it is a rare delicacy in the world, you go with me!" ”
Harem Cultural and Creative ...... After An Ge returned to Beijing, she had been hearing others mention it, but she hadn't been there yet, and she also wanted to know how far the harem cultural creativity that was born under her own idea had done now, so she nodded, handed Er'er to Ning Jiu, and went out with Liu Pingle.
The carriage quickly stopped in front of the harem, and as soon as An Ge and Liu Pingle entered, the shopkeeper recognized An Ge and hurriedly came up to greet him: "Why did the general's wife come here in person?" If you want anything, send someone to tell me, and I will personally send someone to send it to your house. ”
An Ge smiled: "I want to go out for a walk, and Shopkeeper Cao is also busy, so I won't trouble you." ”
On the way here, An Ge had already told Liu Pingle about his relationship with the harem culture and creativity, so now Liu Pingle saw that the shopkeeper ignored him and said hello to An Ge, and he also felt that it was a matter of course.
Shopkeeper Cao smiled and agreed, then looked at Liu Pingle and said, "This girl looks at Miansheng, is she from the capital?" ”
An Ge explained: "This is Lord Liu's family, she happened to be outside Beijing when the ladies opened the store, and she only recently returned to Beijing, so she came over today when she was free." ”
Shopkeeper Cao smiled even deeper, and immediately said, "What do the general's wife and Miss Liu want to see?" Miss Liu came for the first time, and there was a gift for Miss Liu in the shop. ”
After that, Xiao Er, who was observing the words and expressions on the side, immediately took a brocade box and handed it to Liu Pingle.
Liu Pingle hadn't spent any money yet, and he was a little embarrassed to accept it, so he shirked it with the shopkeeper twice before taking it, and when he opened it, he saw that it was a brocade embroidered with peonies.
Liu Pingle touched the material, it was Shu brocade, and took a closer look at the embroidery, which was delicate and complicated, and if it was sold, it would be expensive. She raised her head and thanked the shopkeeper Cao again: "The embroiderer of this handkerchief is the best I have ever seen when I am so old, thank you to the shopkeeper Cao." ”
Shopkeeper Cao said with a smile: "This piece is embroidered by the queen's mother, and I only have the last three pieces in this store...... No, there are two pieces left. ”
Liu Pingle was very happy, although she did not lack a handkerchief, but this handkerchief was of great significance, and it was very precious, and the shopkeeper Cao was willing to give it to her, which meant that he looked up to her.
An Ge knows the habit of sending a handkerchief when he meets for the first time in the harem, it is to watch people cook, Cao's shopkeeper has lived in the capital for more than 40 years, which family has a good background, which family has an average family background, he understands it in his heart, so good things are naturally left to those who can buy more things in the store, or those with noble status, if it is just ordinary, it may be a handkerchief embroidered by concubines or palace maids.
Liu Pingle was so happy at this time that he completely forgot what he wanted to buy at the beginning, and after looking around the store, he wanted to buy a lot of things, and the shrewd second brother on the side immediately took a basket to follow Liu Pingle and help her get things.
An Ge and the shopkeeper Cao said: "By the way, I heard that there is a new jasper cake in the store recently, and I and Pingle came here to eat it today, is there anything else?" ”
Shopkeeper Cao looked embarrassed and said with a smile: "It's unfortunate that Madame came, the last one has been ordered out a few days ago, and the deposit has been given, and someone will come to get it later...... You think it's either like this, tomorrow when the things arrive, I'll send someone to the General's Mansion and Liufu, how about it? ”
An Ge wanted to say that it was not in the way, and they would come over again tomorrow, but before they could speak, a guest came in, and when the shopkeeper Cao saw her, his eyes lit up, and he stepped forward and said: "Miss Sun is here, Miss Sun, see if I can discuss with you, can you give up the jasper cake, the shop is willing to give you ten times the deposit compensation, and I will send you another copy tomorrow, and I will not charge money." ”
An Ge didn't want this store to lose money because of her, and he didn't want to win people's love, so he said: "Shopkeeper Cao, it's actually ......."
Before she finished speaking, she didn't expect that Miss Sun readily agreed, took the money from the shopkeeper Cao, and left happily.
An Ge couldn't help it, so he took out an extra ten taels of silver and said to the shopkeeper Cao: "Thank you Shopkeeper Cao for thinking about me so much, I really don't want to go, Shopkeeper Cao, I will give you the silver you paid." ”
Shopkeeper Cao pushed back An Ge's silver, shook his head, and said in a low voice: "Miss An is too worried, in fact, I did this at the behest of the queen mother and the concubines, and I don't need to give the silver for compensation, just deduct it from the account, and the harem can still afford to give this money." ”
An Ge was puzzled: "The queen instructed them? Who is this Sun girl? ”
