At this time, Concubine Jing reached out and took a piece of rose cake and tasted it, Ding Lan and Zixiang hurriedly stopped when they saw this, and looked at Concubine Jing.

The two glanced at each other, Ding Lan understood, and asked softly, "Niangniang, how does it taste?"

Concubine Jing nodded and said: "It's really good, the imperial dining room also used flower petals to make snacks before, but it is a little sweet and greasy, and it is not suitable to eat too much, this rose cake is not only good-looking, but the appetite is light and fragrant, sweet but not greasy, much better than the dim sum that I ate before the palace." As she spoke, Concubine Jing looked at the rose cake in her hand, nodded and said, "I didn't expect that this Su Jinzhao is not only a superb cook, but also a smart woman, and now such a woman is rare." ”

Ding Lan and Zixiang listened, their eyes were all surprised, Ding Lan said: "Niangniang, the slave has been with you for so many years, and I haven't seen any girl you praise."

After Ding Lan said this, Concubine Jing also seemed to realize it, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she said with a gentle expression: "Probably this Su Jinzhao is beyond the expectations of this palace." As she spoke, she raised her eyes to look at Ding Lan and Zixiang and asked, "Is this eldest lady of the Su family really as good as you say?" ”

Ding Lan and Zixiang nodded in response without saying a word, Ding Lan said first: "After these days of contact, Miss Su treats people kindly, and the rough work of cooking for Niangniang is the responsibility of the slaves and maids, and Miss Su has never said half a word of complaint, she does it herself, and sometimes she puts a lot of effort into a dish." Ding Lan pointed to the delicacies on the table with her eyes, "In order to ensure that each meal is not the same, so that the mother can eat more, Miss Su has not put much thought into this dish." Some of them were seen by the slaves and maids, and some of them were inadvertently mentioned by Qiaoci beside her. It can be seen that Miss Su has put a lot of thought into it in private for the sake of her mother's three meals a day. ”

As soon as the words fell, Zixiang also answered: "By the way, Miss Su often asks the slave maid about your condition, and when she sees that you are gradually improving, she relieves her heart."

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Jing's eyes were raised, she was a little surprised, and she thought to herself for a moment before she said slowly: "It's difficult to do three meals a day without the same three meals." These days, she does her best to take care of the food and drink of the main palace, and the main palace should show something. ”

What should I give?

Concubine Jing held her cheeks with one hand and thought quietly.

When Zixiang heard this, she was a little excited and said, "What does Niangniang mean, is she going to reward Miss Su?"

Concubine Jing nodded slightly, just what is the reward, money and things, I am afraid that for Su Jinzhao, it should not be so important.

Ding Lan frowned slightly when she saw Concubine Jing, thought about it, and hesitated: "A few days ago, the third prince sent someone to send a few horses of fine silk fabrics, which were originally intended to be used to make clothes for Niangniang, who advocated frugality, saying that the clothes were enough to wear for the time being, so she asked the slave maid to put them away and it was useless. These days, there is a lot of smoke in the kitchen, and Miss Su's clothes will inevitably get stained when she goes in and out of the kitchen. The slave maid thought, those fabrics are carefully selected by the three princes, not ordinary fabrics, if you make clothes and give them away, you can also get them, the key is that the color is just right, it is better to ......" Ding Lan saw that Concubine Jing did not react, so she boldly suggested, "It is better to choose one of them to make clothes for Miss Su, which can be regarded as a full mother's heart for her." ”

Without waiting for Concubine Jing to speak, Zixiang on the side disagreed with Ding Lan's idea this time, she said: "Those fabrics were sent by the third prince, and they are a piece of filial piety to the mother, if they are taken to make clothes for Miss Su, the slave and maid feel that it is really a little inappropriate."

Ding Lan was about to open her mouth to say something, when Concubine Jing spoke up and interrupted the two: "There's nothing wrong with it, those fabrics were originally used to make clothes for people, and they are not worn by anyone, anyway, they are placed in the box, so it is better to use them." Su Jinzhao has bothered about the food and drink of the palace these days, and the palace gave her a dress to talk about her thoughts, which is also appropriate. The matter was settled. She instructed the two of them, "These days, you have often been in contact with Su Jinzhao, and you must have a certain understanding of her dressing preferences, so you two are responsible for choosing colors, and go back to the master room with me, so that those embroidery girls in the palace with good craftsmanship can make clothes." ”

Ding Lan and Zixiang responded: "Leave such a trivial matter to the slaves and maids to do, why should the mother go on a trip herself."

Concubine Jing shook her head and said slowly: "This palace will personally go and tell them, they will take it seriously, even if they give it away, they must always make the best."

Sure enough, when Concubine Jing went to the embroidery room in person, the housekeeper of the embroidery room, Wei Sicheng, was not surprised, his face was full of surprise, and he took the people in the embroidery room to salute in person: "I've seen Concubine Jing's mother."

The crowd behind him also followed suit.

Concubine Jing raised her hand: "Get up."

Wei Sizhi raised his head at this time, and wondered in his heart, why did people who rarely go out of the dormitory on weekdays suddenly come to their embroidery room. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask: "I don't know if Concubine Jing came to the embroidery room today, what do you have to order?"

Concubine Jing made a look, and Ding Lan stepped forward to say her intention to Wei Siji, and handed over the fabric she brought over to the other party by the way: "...... According to what I just said, to make a beautiful dress with this fabric, you must use the best embroiderer girl here, in short, this dress must not be sloppy. ”

Wei Sizhi glanced at Concubine Jing quickly, which did not match the size that Ding Lan just said, thinking that it was the clothes that Concubine Jing made for herself, and she came to explain it when she was not at ease, but she didn't want it to be clothes made for others. Wei Sizhi thought to himself, he didn't know which person had such a big face, and he actually bothered Concubine Jing Niangniang to come forward in person, and the errands had always been done by the people below.

Thinking of this, Wei Si was envious, and he couldn't help but wonder who this person was.

"Since it is Concubine Jing's order, please rest assured that the slave will definitely choose the best embroiderer." Wei Sizhi replied respectfully.

Ding Lan looked at Concubine Jing and stepped aside.

At this time, Concubine Jing spoke: "This dress must not be sloppy, it is done, and the palace will be rewarded."

Hearing this, how could Wei Siji, who had been in the palace for many years, not understand the importance of this errand, Concubine Jing acted low-key, and she did not have much contact with the concubines of the palaces on weekdays, so she could come forward in person, and it was conceivable that the other party was important to her.

The master has said so, how can anyone who is a slave not obey orders.

Wei Sizhi responded: "The things designated by the mother herself, the slave and maid naturally dare not slack off, and will do their best to do this well, and will definitely live up to your explanation."

Concubine Jing nodded and said, "Wei Si has been in the palace for many years, and he has always been thoughtful, this palace is not worried, leave it to you, this palace is naturally relieved."

Receiving Concubine Jing's affirmation, Wei Sizhi was inevitably overjoyed. was about to invite Concubine Jing to the house, but heard Concubine Jing say, "Okay, it's not early, it's time to go back to the palace." Finally, he explained, "The matter of clothes cannot be delayed for too long, you just need to worry more." ”
