After receiving the money, it was the team that was set early, and Luo Shi had no excuse to refuse.

Therefore, when the day came, before dawn, she had already counted the good things, asked two Liba porters to carry them, and a few people took a cage car to the princess's mansion in Guangxiang in the south of the city.

Everyone in the capital knows that the north is the imperial palace, the east is the eldest princess's mansion, and there is a little princess in the south, who is married to Liang Shuye, the general of Zhenxi, and is the emperor's favorite one.

The emperor in this palace is still young, but he is superstitious about pills and prescriptions, and he is addicted to flying ascension, and he is not close to women, except for giving birth to a weak prince, there is only such a princess under his knees, and he naturally regards it as a pearl.

Luo Xi knew in her heart, if she didn't spoil this little princess and the dignified emperor, why did she detain the grain and grass of the three armies, just to force Uncle Liang to submit at night and promise to pay the princess?

sighed secretly and asked her to cook for Uncle Liang's blind date banquet with her own hands, she almost wanted to add a pound of arsenic croton to the dish!

It's all poisoned, and it's all gone.

Restlessly, he shook to the princess's mansion, got out of the car from the side door, explained his identity to the Si Yan gatehouse, led people and things, and arrived at a small blue brick courtyard.

When you smell the fireworks, you know that it is a dining room for cooking.

The royal family has rules, and unlike the people, the meal is not called rice, but the meal.

After the porter put down the basket containing the dishes, he let the servants in the house urge him to leave the princess's mansion.

The steward of the house glanced at the tableware, shook his head and said:

"It looks cold, what dishes and chopsticks do you want in the princess's mansion? You only said, if you want the gold bowl and silver plate, or ivory chopsticks, I can find it for you, why bother to bring this pile of rags? ”

"This is my rule, I only use my own things, I don't feel dirty elsewhere - the stove is a critical place, and I don't like to look at it when I cook, so please take care of it."

The steward was robbed of white, and his eyes widened with anger, he has always been a fox and a fake tiger, who doesn't flatter him, early in the morning, he called this stinky girl angry!

If it weren't for the fact that the princess had to hire a kitchen team, he wouldn't be so angry.

With a cold snort under his nose, the steward turned his head and left, only ordering the two little servants to keep an eye on the outside of the courtyard, and not allowing the team to wander around and collide with the guests.

Today's flower-viewing banquet is full of people with heads and faces, and the most important one is the old lady of the Liang family.

The old lady is the grandfather and grandmother of the horse master, a handful of old bones, full of white silver hair, but in good spirits, the most favorite lively place, called the granddaughter-in-law to please, even if the first to come.

In order to get her, the little princess specially instructed the kitchen to get a lighter table of meals for the old lady.

Waiting for the steward to pat his ass and leave, Luo Shifang put on his arms, tied up his sleeves, and said lightly:

"Auntie, I prepared the spicy dishes in advance, you only match the other dishes, wait for me to heat the oil, and put it in the pot."

Aunt Cuiying is very familiar with these things, she washed the cutting board with water, shook off the knife rack, shredded and chopped pieces, cut fish and scraped scales, and her hands and feet were nimble.

Luo Shi discarded the original sauce sesame oil in the kitchen and used it to make it herself, which was also in case of a dispute over food, and she had a good idea.

Someone added firewood to pull the bellows, the pot gradually became hot, the astringent oil boiled the pot, stir-fried the spicy seeds, and the fragrance wafted out of the stove room.

……

"It smells so good...... Ouch, I haven't smelled such a delicious meal in years."

On the window of the stove room, a kind face suddenly appeared, the old woman had gray hair, wore a graphite green thin gown, and a string of Buddhist beads on her neck was warm, revealing a sandalwood fragrance.

"Who are you?"

Luo Shi just fried a plate of palace fried chicken out of the pot, the color is bright, coveted, as soon as she looked up, she looked at the old woman straight into the eyes.

"Shhh, I slipped out by changing clothes, a bunch of warblers and swallows squeezed me, I was uncomfortable, smelling the spicy fragrance, looking for them all the way - haha, tell them to find me"

As soon as these words came out, Luo Shi knew who was coming.

Every time she saw Uncle Liang's family, she panicked, subconsciously lowered her eyes, and called in a muffled voice:

"Old lady......"

"Call grandma, I saw that you had a good face, and burned a good dish, why don't you go to the front yard to enjoy the flowers, my wife chose you to be your granddaughter-in-law!"

"No, no, I'm just a cook, I don't dare to ...... No, I don't want to...... No, I mean, you better stop making fun of me."

Luo Shi waved the spatula in her hand, a little incoherent.

In the old lady's meaningful eyes, Luo Shi waved too much, and with a flick of his hand, the shovel took off and flew out of the window-

As expected, the sound of the clatter hitting the ground did not come.

Luo Shi hurriedly looked over and saw Uncle Liang with a cold face at night, with a shovel between his fingers, standing not far away.

"How did you get here?"

Uncle Liang walked over at night, brought the spatula in front of Luo Shi, and asked the old lady on the side.

Mrs. Liang was like a primary school student who skipped class and was caught by the teacher, leaning on crutches and smiling at her grandson:

"Am I not hungry? Eh, eldest grandson, this girl has a good hand of dishes, all of the spicy ones you love to eat, I don't think you can choose those women, see that none of them can cook, take her back, grandma likes it! ”

Uncle Liang's eyelids jumped, and he didn't turn his head to look at Luo Shi, only a faint wry smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Come back with me, we'll be serving the meal in a while."

"Don't go, bully me when I'm old, I must say that I eat fasting and chant Buddha, but how can I look at this spicy and oily dish, so greedy?"

"You are not feeling good, and you are not allowed to eat greasy meat, this is what your mother commanded"

When the old lady heard that Uncle Liang had moved his daughter-in-law out at night, her face collapsed, and she muttered vigorously.

Luo Shi watched from the side, seeing that the old lady was reluctant to leave, Uncle Liang had another stinky face, and he didn't know who owed him one million and eighty thousand dollars, so he said weakly:

"The ingredients are all ready-made, if you are hungry, why don't I make a bowl of vegetarian noodles first and fill your stomach?"

"Okay, that's great!"

The old lady got off the donkey downhill, turned Uncle Liang aside with her cane, went in around the door of the stove, and sat down at a table outside.

Uncle Liang sighed secretly at night, and followed into the stove room, staring at the back of Luo Shi in the afterglow, and his eyes were deep.

As soon as he entered the capital, he controlled himself and must not look for her-

In this capital, there are many people who may be staring at her, his mother, his nominal wife, and the eldest princess who is in power.

The more he shows love for her, the more crisis she has.

Therefore, apart from fully supporting her spicy dish team behind her back, and asking the Bujun Yamen to take special care of Xu Sheng, he didn't know what else he could do.

In addition to Luo Shi in the stove room, the rest of the helpers, Uncle Liang made a gesture, and they all retreated.

"Will you eat?"

Luo Shi wrapped the shredded vegetarian chicken in flour and poured it into the oil pot, she wiped the sweat from her forehead, turned her head and asked Uncle Liang what he meant.

Seeing that his Adam's apple moved, he nodded his head, and said in a loud voice:

"Then you come to make a fire to help, you have sent everyone out, I can't do it alone"

"Help?"

"Go, go—"

The old lady smiled, her face was deeply wrinkled, she waved the cane in her hand and drove Uncle Liang in to help at night.

Uncle Liang sat in front of the stove at night, pumped the bellows twice, and his thoughts were up and down-

It's like returning to the Tongzhou courtyard three years ago, and he also accompanies her to make a fire and cook like this, and the time is like flowing water, but the past is still vivid.

Luo Shi unconsciously pursed the corners of her mouth and smiled, she fried a bowl of slightly spicy fresh salted meat sauce, this meat is shredded and fried in oil, and two handfuls of noodles were blanched and scooped up.

Two bowls of vegetarian meat noodles, with chopsticks on their feet, are steaming.

I was also afraid that the old lady would eat salty, so Luo Shi fried a plate of dried fried beans and garlic spinach from the vegetarian dishes originally prepared for her.

Brought to the two of them together, Luo Shi smiled:

"It's very simple, home-cooked side dishes, I only made some, just eat to fill my stomach, and have a serious lunch later"

The old lady used to eat exquisitely, the clear soup was bland, and there was no taste in the whole day, but today she ate so oily, and she was very happy.

She couldn't care about Uncle Liang, she just picked up the chopsticks, rolled up the noodles, and sent them to her mouth.

Luo Xi saw that Uncle Liang had been silent all the time, and he was not surprised that she appeared here, so he knew about the spicy dish team, and he had known about it for a long time.

After hesitating for a moment, Fang opened his mouth and asked:

"The peach blossoms are blooming, can the horse master be rewarded?"

Uncle Liang lowered his head to eat noodles at night, his face was calm, and he listened to Luo Shi's words, but he didn't say anything.

However, the old lady put down most of the bowl of noodles, and the red oil stained her fingers, she did not hesitate to put it in her mouth, and she said happily:

"You kid knowingly asked, he's going to fall in love, what kind of noodles are you eating here with my old wife? Haven't you hugged the beauty and gone to the house to spend the first month? ”

"Ancestor ......"

Uncle Liang was just about to speak, but was scolded back by Mrs. Liang.

"Shut up, this aggrieved coward, I don't know where to learn? I admit the marriage of the heavenly family, but the granddaughter-in-law who can enter the ancestral hall of the Liang family, you still have to find it for me, eat noodles! ”

The old grandmother, who was originally kind and pleasant, loving and lovely, has become domineering and strict at this time, so much so that Luo Shi on the side is dumbfounded.

Sure enough, the women of the Liang family are all indescribably powerful people.

Before the noodles were finished, the door of the stove room was kicked open—

"Ancestor!"

The little princess listened to the news, and came to the small courtyard of the stove house angrily, and saw that the old woman really ate the small stove with the concubine, and couldn't help but be angry and disgusted.

The girls are going crazy, she's good, she's hiding here, and she doesn't like the salt!

But she was a junior, so she didn't dare to blame openly, so she had to vent her anger on Luo Shi, the cook.

She went up and kicked the man to the ground, and scolded angrily:

"What kind of thing is you, dare to leave Mrs. Liang and Master Don Ma to eat here, lowly cangzi, no eyesight, don't you have other intentions?!"

Luo Shi couldn't dodge, and received a kick on his waist, and the whole person threw himself forward-

overturned the noodle bowls and dishes on the square table, splashed a body of noodle soup and vegetable juice, and crashed into Uncle Liang's arms.

"You, how dare you—"

The little princess was so angry that she stamped her feet, she was used to being coquettish, and the abuse of the slaves was commonplace, and she thought that the cook had soiled the clothes of the colt, and she was determined to teach her a lesson.

She took out a soft horsewhip from behind her, and slashed her head and face at Luo Shi!

Uncle Liang's pupils shrank, he grabbed the whip with his bare hands, pulled it back, and easily snatched her whip.

"When did she provoke you? If you want to eat, it's my idea, what are you angry, come at me! ”

"You...... What do you do protecting a minion, who do I fight on weekdays, you don't care about me, she, what is she? ”

The little princess was angry and anxious, hated Luo Shi from head to toe, suddenly remembered something, glared at the apricot eyes and said:

"Her man was your white horse servant's guard...... Uncle Liang's night! In Liangzhou, haven't you already hooked up with your subordinates? You still want to take a concubine, do you want to take her? ”

This is said very ugly, the little princess is taught by the royal family, and she actually hangs such uneducated words on her lips, like a shrew in the market, which really surprised Mrs. Liang.

She covered her churning chest and said to the little princess:

"There is a murderous sword on the three-inch tongue, the little princess should accumulate some virtue!"

Luo Xi saw that the old lady's face was not good, so she knew that she was not lightly angry, and stepped forward to help the person, she helped to smooth her back, and said with relief:

"You take care of your body, it's not worth it to be angry, I'll pour you a cup of warm tea-"

After that, Luo Shi generally carried a teapot and poured a bowl of tea for Mrs. Liang.

The little princess's temper comes and goes quickly, and she is even more unhappy to see that this cook is pretentious, and she is a bad person, and she is even more unhappy.

She wanted to drive people out, but when she heard the old lady's coughing, she couldn't lift it in one breath, so she pouted!

"Old lady!"

When the little princess saw the old lady's appearance, she clenched her fists weakly, and suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly turned her head and called the maid to ask the imperial doctor.

Uncle Liang pushed the little princess away, picked up the person on his back, and rushed into the wing room while commanding loudly:

"Close the door of the stove room, don't let people go, don't let people in, don't let outsiders touch everything!"

Luo Xi's heart became a mess, barely suppressed her uneasy thoughts, remembered Uncle Liang's words in her heart, and hurriedly instructed Aunt Cuiying outside to close the courtyard door and lock it.

The people in the courtyard were all in the corner, and not a single one was missing.
