It was late at night at the end of the dinner, but Mrs. Yu was unwell, so Yu Ge Lao left Zhou Hong to stay, and wanted to take the time to talk to him about the Japanese invaders.

He stayed, and Liu Han was impatient to go back to listen to Mrs. Liu's nagging, so he cheekily went to Yu Ge's side: "Cousin Hong lives lonely in his grandfather's mansion, why don't you stay with his grandson to accompany him?" ”

Yu Ge Lao scolded with a smile: "You monkey, are you causing trouble outside, and you don't want to go home to listen to your mother's nagging, so you have to avoid going to the house?" ”

"Let my grandfather guess, you will keep me when you are old. As long as you keep talking, my mother has no reason to let me go back. I was able to spend time with my grandmother. ”

Although Liu Han doesn't learn and has no skills, he has a sweet mouth and a smooth tongue, and often enjoys under Yu Laoge's knees, at most he goes out to eat, drink and have fun, but he never causes trouble, and he is very liked by Yu Ge.

The two of them went to visit Mrs. Yu again, she slept for a while during the day, and at night she was sleepy, but she was younger and more energetic than them. Zhong Liu and the two ladies of the Yu family were accompanied, and several of them were busy for the birthday banquet for several days, and they were a little sleepy sitting there at the moment.

Seeing this, Old Madam Yu urged a few people to go back: "You guys have worked hard enough these days, go back and rest early." I've got someone waiting here. ”

As she was talking, Mama Lai brought Ye Zhiqing in, and there was a little girl ring carrying a food box behind her, and when she came in, she opened the food box, and there was only a small urn of porridge and two emerald green side dishes.

Mrs. Yu doesn't think about eating and drinking recently, especially when the birthday banquet is approaching, the house is trying dishes every day, and all the things served are big meat and oil, and a full table is set, and she has no appetite when she looks at it.

Mama Lai stepped forward to help the old lady: "Old lady, this is the medicinal porridge that Miss Ye made for you, you can eat a little bit." ”

Mrs. Liu is accustomed to picking thorns, especially for Ye Zhiqing, so she said: "It's hard for Miss Ye to stay up all night, and she only prepared a bowl of porridge for her mother, is this a heart to not let her mother eat enough?" ”

Ye Zhiqing turned a deaf ear, and only said to Mrs. Yu: "This is Bazhen fragrant porridge, which contains black rice, jujube, fragrant rice, walnut kernels, white fungus, longan meat, lily, and peanuts. ”

The self-owned maid set up a small kang table, Mrs. Yu cleaned her hands, took the porridge bowl and tasted it first, only to feel that it was fragrant and glutinous, and even the peanuts were stewed in the mouth and soft, and the entrance tasted very good. She ate a small bowl of seasonal vegetables and vegetables on the table, and after eating a small bowl, she felt that it was not enough, and she had to add more, and everyone immediately looked at each other.

Especially Mrs. Liu, her face is about to turn the color of pig liver.

She had just made things difficult for Ye Zhiqing, thinking that the dinner she had prepared for Mrs. Yu was too shabby, so she was sarcastic. Although Liu Shilang's official is not big, but Mrs. Liu's daily home is very pompous, how have you ever seen only one urn of porridge and two side dishes to eat one meal, I don't know how many times I laughed Ye Zhiqing's small family is angry, and she can't get on the table.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Yu liked Ye Zhiqing's medicinal diet very much, and she looked at the appearance of her appetite. Mama Lai's eyes were red when she looked at her: "It's still Miss Yezi, the old lady doesn't want to eat these days, every time the soup is stewed in the kitchen, she barely takes a sip and puts it down, even if it's porridge, she doesn't use much." ”

She didn't know that the kitchen of Yufu was boiling porridge for Mrs. Yu, looking at it as vegetarian porridge, and the soup base might be mutton bones and chicken bones, etc., just to retain the flavor of the meat, the side dishes of the porridge were also all kinds of meat dishes, rouge goose breast, spiced sauce meat, lotus leaf elbow, etc., so that Mrs. Yu had no appetite at all.

The old lady ordered a vegetarian dish, the color was delicious, but the oil in the stir-fry was meaty, and the entrance even covered up the fragrance of the vegetables, and she had no appetite.

"It's a clever girl, you go and bring her a set of pearl heads in the cage in my room. That set of head noodles is the most suitable for a little girl, and she is too plain to wear. "Old Madam Yu sent Mama Lai to open the cage.

She had already heard that the old Yu Pavilion had left this girl behind and gave her a few days of conditioning.

Ye Zhiqing hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be!" How dare you be an old lady with a generous gift, the little girl is just a little filial piety for the young general, the old lady must not be like this! ”

Zhou Hong said secretly on the side: This girl has left the Zhou Mansion, but she is a talker, and she can even say such tricks!

But she summoned his maid, not only was this right, but it made him face related, and he couldn't say that she did wrong.

Liu Han squeezed his eyebrows at him, and was secretly stepped on by Zhou Hong, so he was honest.

Mrs. Liu muttered in a low voice: "Mother also thinks too highly of this girl, she just boils a bowl of porridge." ”

Old Madam Yu said at this moment: "You may not have the ability of her bowl of porridge, don't stop talking quickly, why bother with a little girl, I'm not afraid of losing my identity?!" ”

Mrs. Liu reluctantly stopped talking.

Mama Lai took the jewelry box out, Mrs. Yu opened it and took a look, and personally stuffed it into Ye Zhiqing's hand: "Don't shirk it anymore, I still want to eat a bowl of delicious rice tomorrow." ”

Ye Zhiqing thanked the old lady, took the small teapot brought in by the little girl, and personally poured a cup of tea for the old lady Yu: "This is prince ginseng tea, which is added with prince ginseng, astragalus, and wheat winter, which can be used as a substitute for tea and warm drink, and the old lady will have one dose a day in the future, which will treat the old lady's heart palpitations, dizziness, insomnia and other symptoms." ”

Old Madam Yu took a sip and said with a smile: "You even know that I have insomnia?" ”

Ye Zhiqing smiled slightly: "When the old lady is going to sleep for a while, I am helping the old lady massage a few acupuncture points to help her sleep." ”

Old Madam Yu said to the crowd: "It's enough for me to have this girl tonight, she is more useful than everyone in your room, you all go back and rest." ”

Everyone walked out with a smile one after another, Zhou Hong stayed at the end, turning back as he walked, and the old lady Yu teased him: "Brother Hong, is this reluctant to let my girl be left by me?" Don't worry, my grandmother is not greedy for your girl, I will return it to you in a few days if I borrow her! ”

Zhou Hong almost fled.

With the approval of Mrs. Yu, Ye Zhiqing temporarily stayed in Yu's mansion and prepared three meals a day for Mrs. Yu.

There are all kinds of ingredients in the big kitchen of Yufu, and Mama Lai personally took her to the big kitchen to recognize the door, and ordered the people in the kitchen who are in charge of the side dishes to light the fire to come to see her: "This is a person borrowed by the old lady for the old lady, and the old lady has to make medicinal food for the old lady recently, and the old lady's diet has to be made by Miss Yezi, you just have to obey her dispatch." He knocked everyone again: "Don't think I don't know what you all think, Miss Yezi is young and tender, don't bully her, she won't stay in the mansion for a long time, and when the young master returns to the southeast, she will also go back with her, and it won't hinder you anything." ”

The big kitchen is a place with rich oil and water, I don't know how many people want to break their heads and want to come in, if they can be a purchasing steward, they are all good and bad, I am afraid that more people will be stuffed in, and the benefits will be thinned.

Mama Lai has been in Yu Mansion for a long time, and she knows all kinds of doorways in the deep house, how she doesn't know what everyone thinks in their hearts.

Qin Niangzi, who was in charge of the big kitchen, immediately said: "What Mama said, are we such people who bully life?" Since it was someone invited by the elder of the pavilion, we would definitely not teach the girl to do it, and the girl just had to open her mouth and appoint. Immediately pointed to the two little girls in the kitchen: "You all put down the work at hand, and you have been on an errand by Miss Ye's side recently." ”

Ye Zhiqing hurriedly said: "Auntie doesn't have to be so polite, just give me a stove pot, don't use anything else, I made it myself." ”

"The girl has fine skin and tender meat, how can you let the girl do these rough work, you just have to instruct the little girls to do it."

Thanks to Mama leading the way, everyone in the Yu family's big kitchen was extremely polite to her, Ye Zhiqing gained a firm foothold in the Yu family's kitchen, and all the servants in the kitchen were extremely polite to her.

On the fourth day after the birthday banquet, she got a plate of glutinous rice and red bean cake from Aunt Lu, and she was about to go back to the room when she mentioned it in the food box.

She was still naughty as a girl in Yu Mansion, so she turned a corner of a mountain and rock, but saw several Miss Sun in Yu Mansion laughing around a chubby little girl.

Old Madam Yu was uncomfortable, and several Miss Sun in the mansion went to the old lady every morning and evening to ask for peace, but Ye Zhiqing recognized several Miss Sun in the Yu Mansion.

But she didn't know the fat girl who was surrounded by several people.

Mrs. Yu's fourth daughter, Yu Hongyu, pointed at the little girl and said, "Yu Wenhui, you know how to eat and eat all day long, and you don't even want to go to your grandmother's root to ask for peace, I see that you will eat a pig sooner or later!" ”

Yu Hongyan, the second daughter of Dafang, suddenly chuckled: "Third sister, isn't she just a pig now, what do you think she has become fat?" She wore a pair of pink embroidered shoes on her feet, and stepped on half of the snack on the ground in front of Yu Wenhui. But it was Fang Cai Yu Wenhui who was hiding here to eat snacks, and a few of their sisters came over, slapped the snacks in her hands to the ground, and sneered around her.

Yu Wenhui was twelve or thirteen years old, and was besieged by her sisters, so she only shed tears, but she didn't dare to say a word.

Ye Zhiqing sighed and stepped forward and said, "How many Miss Sun are here?" The old lady was still chattering. ”

There are five daughters in Yu's family's room, three of whom are from the main room and the other two are from the concubine's room. When Mrs. Yu returned to Beijing this time, she brought back her five daughters and two sons, and the concubine stayed in Bingzhou to wait for Uncle Yu.

Mrs. Yu has a skill, and the two concubines have also been raised under her knees since childhood, because of her sensitive identity, she has always been flattering to the daughter from the main room, and she also sneered at Yu Wenhui.

Several Miss Sun knew that Ye Zhiqing was the person waiting next to Mrs. Yu, and Miss Yu was sixteen years old this year, and she had seen Zhou Hong before the birthday banquet, so she never forgot this cousin Hong, knowing that she was Zhou Hong's maid, she was afraid that she would say that a few people were bullying Yu Wenhui, so she smiled and said: "A few of our sisters are joking with Sister Hui, she only nests in the room all day and refuses to come out, but we can't find anyone if we want to accompany her." ”

Ye Zhiqing had no intention of arguing with a few Miss Sun in Yu Mansion, her original intention was just to relieve Yu Wenhui's predicament, so she smiled and said: "The old lady knows that several Miss Sun sisters love each other and often joke. After waiting for a few people to go, she took out a handkerchief and handed it to Yu Wenhui: "Fifth Miss wipe your face, I have the glutinous rice and red bean cake that I just got back from the kitchen, and it is still hot." Why don't I send Miss Five back to the room to eat? ”

Yu Wenhui's tears were hazy when she cried, and no matter who relieved herself, she only knew that she was about a little decent in front of Mrs. Yu, so that a few cousins could walk away automatically, and at this time she only grabbed her hand and cried a lot.
