Chapter 27: Contest 2

When Hejia heard this poem, a mocking look appeared on her face.

I really don't know how thick the sky is to be able to come up with such a limerick.

So, he walked to the middle of the hall, his demeanor was down-and-out, and his pink lips were lightly opened, "The silver leaks through the flowers and the galaxy is shallow, and the moonlight hangs high among the flowers." The light in his sleeve hides the Shenwu sword, and he stays in the northwest of Zhengtian. ”

"The first half of the sentence is gentle and soft, and the second half of the sentence is Top Gun, Princess Hejia won this game, He Ling'er, do you have any criticism?"

"Princess Hejia has a magnificent style of words, and the folk girl admits defeat."

Jiang Cailing opened her mouth shallowly, with a hint of sadness in it, and when she closed her eyes, the corners of her lips couldn't help but bloom with a smile.

This smile was captured by Gu Jiming, his jade-like face was silent, and just as he was about to talk about the next topic, Prince Helian, who had not spoken for a long time, stood up, "Little sister and Miss He are on par, it is difficult to distinguish between them, and it is difficult to be willing to win or lose in the third game, Xiao Wang has a proposal, I don't know whether to talk about it or not." ”

"What does the prince propose?"

"Whether it is the wife of a prince of Gaomen or the wife of a mountain village, in the final analysis, they are all women, although pen and ink Danqing is one of the criteria to measure whether a person is excellent or not, but as a wife, washing hands and soup is also essential. How about the two of you competed in cooking? ”

"That's fine."

Jiang Cailing can cook tea and brew wine, but it is true that cooking rice is not possible, Emperor Zhaohong had also sent someone to teach her before, but Jiang Cailing, who is familiar with other aspects, can't master the heat and taste, either make the food salty and extreme, or make the kitchen jump. Later, Emperor Zhaohong also knew that she was stubborn, so he was exempted from this teaching.

I couldn't help snickering in my heart, and looked at this Prince Helian, thinking that he had a good topic.

Prince Helian happened to meet Shangjiang Cailing's eyes, he was used to observing other people's expressions since he was a child, and when he grew up, he could see through other people's moods through subtle movements.

Seeing the cunning look in her eyes, there was a look of joy hidden in it, and I couldn't help but secretly wonder in my heart, could this He girl be so happy that she is a master of cooking?

Thinking of this, Prince Helian spoke again, "However, some ingredients are difficult to find at the moment, and there are still advanced processing and pickling, so it is better to do it in five days, Your Majesty and the princes and ministers can agree?" ”

said it so reasonably, everyone didn't think of any objections, and they all looked at Guo Ang.

Guo Ang is not very old, but he has a good grasp of the emperor's technique, and he does not refute Prince Helian, nor does he offend Gu Jiming, so he said to He Ling'er with a smile, "He Ling'er, what do you think?" ”

"The people have no objections."

"Well, five days later, I will come to the Prime Minister's Mansion in person, Gu Qing, and I will borrow your kitchen for use!"

Gu Jiming narrowed his eyes, raised his hands to his chest as a gesture, and said loudly, "Respectfully, please the Holy Lord." ”

The story of the two daughters fighting for their husbands spread throughout Luoyang City on the second day, and this food dispute seems to be a kitchen dispute between two women, but in the eyes of everyone, it has been sublimated to the height of the country.

Many folk masters can't see their country's cuisine being compared with other countries, and they have come to the door of He's house to teach Jiang Cailing to make their specialty dishes.

Confident people may not know that Jiang Cailing is not in the He family at all, and in the name of selecting ingredients, Jiang Cailing changed into clothes and came to Taozhenju.

At this time, the decoration of Taozhenju has been completed, and the overall structure of the warm wood color makes the whole house give people a warm feeling, with different flowers and plants arranged everywhere, adding bright and bright colors.

A pineapple wood frame embroidered double-sided koi screen divides the room into two parts, one is a wooden cabinet with various medicinal pills, and the other Jiang Cailing wants to set up a book exhibition area, mainly to place some pictures of talented people, as a display on weekdays, if someone likes it, they can bid to buy, so that they can bring initial passenger flow to Taozhenju.

Jiang Cailing handed the pills to Hao Zheng in a distinct manner, and Hao Zheng said, "It will open tomorrow, but what about the plaque?" ”

"There's no hurry, it will be delivered tomorrow."

While speaking, I saw a beautiful auspicious cloud pattern embroidered on Hao Zheng's elbow, and looked at Hao Zheng's eyes looking at Qingniang, and seemed to understand something.

After Hao Zheng left, Jiang Cailing asked with a smile, "How old is Qingniang today?" ”

"Back to the owner, it's still twenty in a month."

"Have you promised someone before?"

"In the fifteenth year, there was a person who had eight characters, but then he left his hometown, and there was no follow-up."

"There are good men in Luoyang City, what kind of men does Qingniang like, I will help you find them."

Qing Niang didn't expect Jiang Cailing to say such a thing, her white jade-like face flashed red, "Dongjia, I'm twenty years old, I'm old, and I have no foundation, I don't even have a dowry, which man would marry someone like me." ”

"The young lady is young and beautiful, why is she old. I'll meet your eyes, and I'll help you out of the dowry. ”

"The owner ......" Qingniang's eyes were a little red, since her mother left, few people said this kind of intimate words to her, even if Qingniang thought that this was Jiang Cailing's polite words, she was still very moved in her heart.

"What's going on?" Hao Zheng came in with the curtain, and when he saw the red-eyed Qingniang, he felt a lot of pity in his heart, thinking that the Qingniang had done something wrong, Jiang Cailing said her, and walked up to Jiang Cailing and said, "The owner, the Qingniang is not very familiar with it, if you do something wrong, you can scold me." ”

Looking at Hao Zheng who was protecting Qingniang in front of her, Jiang Cailing had the illusion that she was a wicked person, and a joke flashed in her apricot eyes, "Brother Hao, you can protect Qingniang for a while, can you still protect her for the rest of your life?" ”

In a lifetime, this word is too long, full of unknowns, and it is like some kind of mountain alliance and sea oath, full of ambiguity.

Does the young lady live for a lifetime?

When Hao Zheng thought of this, a trace of shame flashed in his eyes.

Jiang Cailing didn't say anything when she saw through it, and opened her mouth to puncture the pink bubbles that Hao Zheng was bubbling all over, "You really think I'm a bad boss bullying the young lady?" I thought that Qingniang and her brother would depend on each other here, so I thought about helping her find a suitable young man. ”

"What?" Hao Zheng was stunned in place, and the red on his face when he was ashamed just now completely disappeared.

"By the way, Brother Hao Zheng doesn't have a sweetheart yet, I'll see if there are any women of the right age around me, it seems that my Taozhen House is not a place to buy pills, but a place where you can hit the peach blossom luck, during the New Year's holidays, will there be many people who come here to ask for marriage?"

Qingniang's face was still blushing, but Hao Zheng looked stupid, and a big man with thick eyebrows and big eyes seemed to have lost his soul at this time.

"Brother Hao, what kind of woman do you like? Is it a more pungent personality, or is it more clever? ”

Hao Zheng glanced at Qing Niang, and when the two looked at each other, a suspicious flush appeared on their faces, and then turned their heads

Jiang Cailing's words are all here, both of them are good people in their hearts, one is burly and powerful, the heart is warm and considerate, and the other is petite and exquisite, and their hearts are like dust, which looks very compatible. After today's incident, I hope to stimulate Hao Zheng, pursue boldly, don't let down the beauty, don't wait for no flowers and empty branches.

After being a moon old man, Jiang Cailing left Taozhenju.

Just like last time, after changing back into clothes, I took Bai He and a few small servants into the vegetable market. The vegetable sellers knew that this was He Ling'er, who was going to compete with Nanzhao's cooking skills, and they were all warmly entertained, bringing out the freshest meat and vegetables, and there were also a few people who claimed to be the god of cooking and pulled Jiang Cailing to teach her exclusive secret recipes.

Apparently, sublimation to the height of the state.

Jiang Cailing held her forehead, and suddenly felt a lot of pressure, if she lost to He Jia, it was difficult to guarantee that these enthusiastic people would not spit on her at that time, but they were afraid that they would become the sinners of the Great Zhou through the ages.

Just when she returned to Hefu with rich meat and vegetables, Jiang Cailing, who was sitting in the sedan chair and was very conflicted, suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Even if the person who knew about it yesterday told someone else about it, it would not have been possible to make a fuss in just one night to the point where everyone knows about it now.

Who deliberately spread the news? What is the other party's purpose, to see her make a fool of herself, or to put pressure on her?

After searching around in her mind, Jiang Cailing couldn't help but see Gu Jiming's figure in front of her eyes.

- What about you, why don't you want to marry me.

Last time on Mingjing Mountain, Gu Jiming's words had already echoed in his ears.

Thinking of the power that controlled her when Yi Gui painted yesterday, Jiang Cailing was almost certain that this must have been secretly operated by him.

Why did Gu Jiming want her to marry into the Prime Minister's Mansion?

If she liked her, she would never believe that such a person who looked like a stone could be tempted by people.

Her thoughts became more and more chaotic, and she suddenly thought of He Xiaoxiao in her mind, He Xiaoxiao said that she had spent her whole life in her dreams, and everything was right except for her.

So, in He Xiaoxiao's dream, who did Gu Jiming marry?

Thinking of this, Jiang Cailing opened the curtain and asked the coachman to go to He Xiaoxiao's house.

The white silk in He Minghai's house has been withdrawn, and the two of them are wearing dark clothes, because they have lost their beloved daughter, they have lost a lot of weight. The white-haired people sent the black-haired people, especially the Wang family seemed to be ten years older than before, and it was difficult to hide the haggard with fine powder on his face, I heard that He Zongyao had been taking care of the affairs of the house these days, and he had performed very well in the school, and he could remember what the master had taught him once he read it.

The prodigal son's return was a great joy, but it also diluted some of the sorrow. Knowing that his son had changed his sex because of Jiang Cailing, He Minghai and Wang's attitude towards Jiang Cailing was also much more earnest.

Jiang Cailing walked into the main hall and saw a wealthy mother standing next to the two, wearing a blue apron, who should be the cook in the back kitchen, how could she be here.

Wang explained Jiang Cailing's doubts, "This is the cook in our house, Mother Zhang, she is the best at southern cuisine, doesn't Ling'er have a cooking competition with Princess Nanzhao, let Mother Zhang teach Ling'er her specialty dishes today." ”

Jiang Cailing: "......"

"Auntie, Ling'er is here today to find the fourth sister."

"Xiaoxiao? What to do with her? Hearing that Jiang Cailing came to He Xiaoxiao, displeasure appeared on He Minghai's face, "That kind of person who insults the door, Ling'er is still good to contact, so as not to be taken bad by her." ”

Hearing a father say this about his daughter, Jiang Cailing felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and suddenly understood why He Xiaoxiao wanted to leave this home.

"Master," the Wang family felt sorry for their daughter after all, and said to Zhang's mother beside her, "Take Ling'er to Xiaoxiao's yard." ”
