Chapter 76
"The mother has an overreputation, Wanyi is ashamed." Wu Wanyi said with a shallow smile, "Wanyi is a little ashamed of herself when she sees the honor of Concubine De. Niangniang is a peerless and independent beauty. ”
"Look at your little mouth, it's so sweet." Concubine De smiled and pulled Wu Wanyi to find a place to sit down, "If you go into the palace to accompany the palace a few more times, the palace will be in a happier mood." ”
"It is Wanyi's blessing to make her mother happy." Wu Wanyi was very humble from beginning to end, and she was not proud of Concubine De's praise at all.
Concubine De Niangniang and Wu Wanyi chatted left and right, and Xie Yunchun was completely excluded.
"Miss Wu, I heard that you prepared your special osmanthus cake for your mother," Xie Yunchun found a gap between them and interjected, "Why didn't I see you bring it in?" ”
Concubine De glared at Xie Yunchun sternly, and then looked at Wu Wanyi in confusion.
"Concubine De, Princess Yan," Wu Wanyi leaned over, "Wanyi heard that Concubine De Niangniang prefers osmanthus cakes, and happened to get a recipe for making osmanthus cakes. But today, the carriage on Wanyi's house suddenly got out of control, and the osmanthus cake had been destroyed in a panic, and Wanyi naturally couldn't let the indecent osmanthus cake go to the table of Concubine De's mother, so the maid destroyed the broken osmanthus cake. ”
"It's okay, as long as you have this heart, this concubine eats not this osmanthus cake, and this palace is very happy in her heart." Concubine De was very satisfied with Wu Wanyi's ability to do things.
"That's not it?" Xie Yunchun began to scold Wu Wanyi again in her heart, damn Wu Wanyi, she escaped again, "The mother concubine loves osmanthus cake so much, originally the concubine was looking forward to your craftsmanship to make the mother concubine happy." I didn't expect Miss Wu to be happy! ”
Concubine De glared at Xie Yunchun and warned her not to say such inexplicable words again. She is a dignified concubine, and she is deeply loved by the emperor, she wants to eat osmanthus cake and directly instruct the imperial dining room to make it, which is like Xie Yunchun said as if she can't eat it. What osmanthus cake can't be eaten? It's good that Wu Wanyi can do it to honor her, and there is nothing to be disappointed without her.
"Niangniang, Wanyi knows that her cooking skills are shallow, and she can't compare to the osmanthus cakes made by those chefs in the imperial dining room," Wu Wanyi's face never changed, "But the osmanthus cake is Wanyi's heart, and it is a pity that she couldn't let Concubine De Niangniang taste it for the first time." Fortunately, Wanyi's maid is smart, and she hurriedly went back to the house to help me get the ingredients for making osmanthus cake. ”
Wu Wanyi's words were very decent, which made Concubine De very happy to hear it, "Okay, good, it's hard for Wanyi to have this heart." Jinxiu, take Wanyi to the small kitchen, and let Bengong also taste her craftsmanship. ”
"Thank you Concubine De," Wu Wanyi leaned over again, thanking Concubine De for being willing to give her this opportunity.
"Miss Wu, please come here." Jinxiu stepped forward and led Wu Wanyi to the small kitchen.
"There's Aunt Lao Jinxiu." Aunt Jinxiu and Aunt Jinxiu, although there is a difference in words, they are more respectful, and Jinxiu instantly had a good impression of Wu Wanyi. No wonder Niangniang is so kind to this unfamiliar Wu girl, this person really needs a certain skill to talk to each other.
Wu Wanyi's hands and feet were very sharp, and she quickly made the osmanthus cake and presented it to Concubine De Niangniang, and also reminded Jinxiu to check whether there was a problem with the osmanthus cake first, and then confirmed that it was correct, and then let Concubine De Niangniang eat it.
Wu Wanyi's recipe for making osmanthus cake is indeed unique, sweet but not greasy, and retains the unique fragrance of osmanthus, just like the taste in the memory of Concubine De.
"Good, good, good!" Concubine De was full of praise. "This is what this palace loves."
"To be loved by the mother, this osmanthus cake is also a blessing." Wu Wanyi said with a smile, "Concubine De, Wanyi has already told Aunt Jinxiu about this osmanthus cake, fortunately, not Wanyi is too talkative." ”
"You're thoughtful." Concubine De looked at Wu Wanyi's eyes more and more she loved it, now it is not because of the Zhenguo General's Mansion, but simply because of Wu Wanyi's person.
Concubine De kept Wu Wanyi in the palace and finished her lunch before letting her leave with Princess Yan.
"Miss Wu, I really can't see it, you're still a sycophant!" Before Xie Yunchun left the palace, she kept counting Wu Wanyi.
Wu Wanyi is in no mood to worry about her for the time being, and it is a matter of words left and right. She silently followed behind Xie Yunchun and let her insult her.
Wu Wanyi's appearance like a stuffy gourd made Xie Yunchun very angry, but she couldn't find a reason to punish Wu Wanyi, so she had to get in front of her carriage and said viciously, "When you enter the Yan Palace, see how this princess cleans you up!" Hum! ”
Wu Wanyi didn't seem to hear Xie Yunchun's threat, and still saluted Xie Yunchun with an unchanged face and rules, "Congratulations to the princess." ”
"Miss, Princess Yan has already left." Ying Han brought a carriage over, "Miss, get in the car." ”
"Hmm." Wu Wanyi raised her head and took Xiangyang into the carriage, and her face immediately became gloomy.
"What's going on?" Wu Wanyi's eyes were sharp and she stared at the food box placed in the carriage, and the osmanthus cake inside was still as if she had placed it before she left the house.
"Miss, there's something wrong with this osmanthus cake." Xiangyang said, "There is a kind of evil flower in this - poppy, it is a special medicine for the treatment of diarrhea, but people who are not sick will be addicted to it, and they will also lose energy, nervous confusion and even madness." ”
"But how can there be poppies in the osmanthus cake?" Wu Wanyi's voice was fierce, "People who have come out of Lianlan Garden, this osmanthus cake has not been touched by anyone else, right?" ”
"Nope. This osmanthus flower was picked and dried by the young lady who used them and the slave maid also tested them. And the ingredients for making osmanthus cake were purchased by slaves and maids, and they did not go through anyone's hands. Xiangyang said, "The slave can guarantee that when the young lady makes the osmanthus cake, there will be no problems at all." ”
"This osmanthus cake was made by me when I got up at night, who has touched the small kitchen or touched the osmanthus cake during this period?" Wu Wanyi didn't expect that she just let Xiangyang keep an eye on the osmanthus cake and prevent people from destroying it, but she accidentally avoided a disaster for herself. What caused this incident to happen was the person in Lian Lanyuan that she trusted very much, Wu Wanyi was in a very worried mood now, and she didn't want to believe that this matter had anything to do with her maid.
