Chapter 40 Osmanthus nectar

Gu Huali and Li Xiuwen had already met the elders, and in the garden, they were originally going to review Huali's residence.

Mingshu planned to follow Gu Huali's Qiuzhu Pavilion, but it was useless for three years, and no one cleaned it, so he really couldn't entertain people.

"It's better to go to me first, the fifth brother still has to pack up well, and it's not too late to go when it's done."

Li Xiuwen is indispensable, he is a guest, and it is arranged by the host.

Gu Huali nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

Mingshu lived with her grandmother before she was ten years old, and when she was older, she moved to Chanjuan Courtyard not far away.

Every day is still the same as before, in the morning, I follow my grandmother, learn embroidery, flower arrangement, tea ceremony, and practice calligraphy, and in the afternoon, I follow my master to read.

It is said that after the age of twelve, one more thing is added to learn the rules of manners, as well as to be in charge of the feed.

Anyway, it's not too busy now, and the days are calm, which is not bad.

At this time, in the early autumn season, the most planted osmanthus flowers in Chanjuan Courtyard are blooming, fragrant, and sweet.

Mingshu led the three of them in, served tea again, and then asked Gu Mingyuan slowly: "You just came from the second aunt, but what kind of guests have come?" ”

Gu Mingyuan didn't know why, so she had to say, "Mother is entertaining the eldest wife of the Shen family, didn't the seventh sister go?" When I left my mother's place, she said that she would entertain her, and that she would tell us sisters to go. ”

Mingshu sighed and said, "It seems that in addition to the Shen family, there are also guests on the side, but I don't know who it is, ask Ah Yuan." ”

Gu Mingyuan's expression flickered a little, but he still didn't speak.

Gu Huali put down the bowl in his hand, coughed and said, "It's my mother's eldest nephew, Lin Chao." I bumped into Xiuwen in the garden, but I don't know why I came. ”

"I see." Mingshu lowered her eyelashes and smiled.

Gu Huali glanced at the little girl lightly, and then lowered his gaze. She guessed something, or rather, the conjecture was verified.

Ling Ling was not a vexatious person, but he forcefully brought Gu Mingyuan over, and deliberately inquired about the guests in the second room.

Is Gu Mingkite going to do? Or is that guest going to do something?

He unconsciously rubbed the green jade pendant on his waist, his expression was pale and deep, and he looked a little unique.

Li Xiuwen patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "What do you want?" I've heard of Lin Chao, big and small is a talent, how about introducing him once? ”

Gu Huali glanced at Mingshu and said, "That's what I mean, I also want to see it." ”

"You haven't seen it either? It's also your cousin......" Li Xiuwen thought of something, and stopped abruptly.

Zike must have had a bad time in the Gu family, otherwise he would never have seen him write a letter to his family, nor would he ever have seen him receive family letters and money.

The concubine is not doing well, and it is probably because of his mother-in-law.

Mingshu thought that a scumbag like Lin Chao could also become a talent admired by others, it was really blind.

"I don't believe in talent, I can compare to the fifth brother and Cousin Wen." Mingshu rolled her eyes slowly.

Li Xiuwen smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for three years, but Ling Ling has not changed much. "It's like a child.

Mingshu is too lazy to argue with him, so she is willing to live a clean and lively life, which is good.

"Ling Ling has seen Lin Chao?" Gu Huali said quietly.

Mingshu was stunned for a moment, and recalled what she had just said. After confirming that there was no sentence that could reveal that he knew Lin Chao, he had a subtle feeling in his heart.

This man's thinking is too thoughtful, or too sharp.

She shook her head calmly, and then said, "I don't know, but I've seen it a few times from afar." After thinking about it, he was a little indignant in his heart, so he said: "Gentleman's skin, villain bones." ”

Li Xiuwen was amused by Mingshu, and said mildly: "Then Ling Ling said, what kind of people are Zike and me?" ”

An innocent little lady who has not been deeply involved in the world, it is really funny and strange to say such things.

Mingshu thought about it for a while, and said: "Cousin Wen is a frank gentleman, but he is naΓ―ve and arbitrary. She turned to look at Gu Huali, but she didn't know what to say about this person.

In his previous life, he seemed to be a cold-hearted and cold-hearted cool minister, but in this life, he is actually a living ordinary person.

Gu Huali had a little smile in his eyes, looking at this sister who liked to be close to him, he subconsciously gentle, "What does Ling Ling think of me?" ”

Ming Shu bit her lower lip before she said, "Fifth brother is a very good person. ”

He is a scholar, but he cannot be judged by whether he is a gentleman or not, like the rest of the scholars.

Li Xiuwen laughed directly, Ling Ling was really interesting.

Gu Huali didn't smile, he had been in a difficult situation for a long time, and he subconsciously observed the details. Mingshu is not like an ignorant child, unable to speak, prevaricating.

Before blurting out the words, she was thinking carefully, and her expression was slowly comparing and thinking. But she couldn't come to a conclusion.

Gu Mingyuan couldn't help laughing, Seventh Sister was so ridiculous. She shook Mingshu's arm and said, "Is Seventh Sister going to be a cherry Biluo?" ”

Mingshu's face stiffened, she would only eat.

"Ling Ling will actually be Biluo." Li Xiuwen also praised Mingshu with a smile. He actually liked this little cousin very much, and it was really funny.

Gu Mingyuan smiled happily, "I can't wait to do it, I like Cherry Biluo the most!" ”

Mingshu blinked and smiled happily, "In this way, then you go to make cherry Biluo, and I will make osmanthus nectar." These two things go well together, and they are delicious. ”

Like, nothing is wrong.

At least Gu Mingyuan couldn't hear that there was anything wrong, so he had to say, "Hmm." Seventh sister, what is osmanthus nectar? ”

Mingshu blinked, "You'll find out later." ”

Joke, osmanthus nectar is ready-made. Now that she was done, she was going to be the cherry Biro of that Rausch.

Gu Huali originally listened to Mingshu's flickering, hung his head and closed his eyes, but he didn't hear it.

Mingshu had already gone by herself, directing the maid to shake the osmanthus flower. Gu Mingyuan was helpless, so he had to go to the small kitchen to make cherry Biluo.

Not long after, Mingshu took out a small white porcelain jar from the yard, and before she opened it, she could smell the sweet silk.

When Gu Mingyuan's cherry Biluo was served, Mingshu opened the small jar. Suddenly, the aroma overflowed, and the sweet gluttonous insects that hooked people's hearts jumped straight up.

Mingshu was also proud, and said: "Pouring it on cherry Biluo or other snacks, even if you cook it, you can pour it on it, it's all delicious." ”

This is the country recipe that Mama Du taught her, but it is amazing to make. These people are all wealthy and have definitely never seen them.

Everyone tasted it, and they all admired Shu very much.

Gu Gu Huali said: "It should also be scalded with hot water." ”

Mingshu was stunned for a moment, and then reacted. This is to remind her that it is more like a new one when it is hot? Or is she overthinking?
