Early the next morning, Gu Jinrong still came to Qingtong Courtyard to ask Jin Chao for peace.

This younger brother didn't come to her often, so Jin Chao first invited him to sit down for tea, and then went to prepare refreshments himself.

Gu Jinrong said: "Why does the eldest sister still do this herself, just let the girl's mother-in-law go." ”

Jin Chao said with a smile: "You have been in Qifang Hutong for more than half a year, and you have never eaten the dim sum at home, it is my sister's new learning, I will give it to you to eat if I do it, it won't take too long, if you are bored and panicked, there are some books in my study to read." ”

Gu Jinrong was a little stunned for a while, he didn't know that Jin Chao could make pastries, let alone that she could also read.

He always thought that she was just like the rumors in the outside world, a straw bag beauty, she didn't know anything, it would just make the eldest lady angry.

But when I think about it, I may not be able to read the book there, but it seems that I am knowledgeable.

Gu Jinrong stepped into Jin Chao's study and saw her shelves full of books, and felt a little pity for these books for a while, and I didn't know if the master understood and appreciated them!

Liuxiang waited beside her and said, "The eldest lady often reads books, and these were just sent from Jizhou a few days ago." ”

There is a rosewood desk in the study, with blue and white pen wash, pen mountain, and a clear mud inkstone. There is a chaise longue by the window, the half-open window can see the snow scene in the yard, and there is only a white porcelain vase standing next to it, with a few plums inserted, and the fragrance is quiet. There is no celebrity calligraphy and painting on the wall, but a piece of ink bamboo, on which the book is written: several paths are dark jade, and the dawn and evening are green and smoked. The sound breaks the dream of the cold window, and the roots wear green moss. Gradually cage when the threshold day, want to get in the way of the clouds. It's not a guest of Shanyin, who loves this gentleman.

This is a poem by Shaoling Ye Lao!

The tense and anxious emotions in Gu Jinrong's heart were relieved a lot, and this poem made people calm.

Qingpu was also frightened by the young lady, she actually wanted to wash her hands and make soup!

Jin Chao kneaded the dough and said to her: "It's not a big deal, I came to see the cook a few days ago, and I don't think it's difficult." "Her kneading technique is a little different, but the strength is a little insufficient. Qingpu was also a little relieved when he looked at it.

Jin Chao thought in his heart, sure enough, he had too many comfortable days, and he had no strength in this hand. I think that in the small courtyard, she can pick up the big tank for water storage alone. This cooking skill was also learned at that time, and people have nothing to do, so they always have to find something to do for themselves. One of Shiye and Wansu is from Sichuan, and the other is from Shaanxi, and she can cook dishes in the north and south, and she does it very well.

It's ridiculous to think about it, what I didn't bother to learn, I learned the most and the best later. The piano skills and calligraphy she used to be good at were somewhat deserted. But you should also find more time to practice, and you can't really waste it......

Qingpu didn't understand: "Why do you want to make these things yourself?" ”

Jin Chao thought about it, she was originally a person who was too lazy to explain, and felt that the effect of her work came out, and others would naturally look at it. But if you want to be closer to Qingpu, it's better to let her know more about her behavior.

"I'm not completely ignorant of what the outside world is saying." She rolled out the dough thinly and added a layer of fried black sesame seeds and crushed peanuts, and a layer of sugar. "The eldest young master is studying outside, he must have heard a lot of these things, and there are always some restless people at home...... I'm afraid I'm just an arrogant and ignorant daughter in his mind—maybe not. If you want him to be closer to me, at least let him change his opinion of me first. ”

Jin Chao didn't want to pay attention to what outsiders said, did she suffer less gossip in her previous life.

She remembered that Gu Jinrong had come to see her once. At that time, not long after his father died, he looked very depressed, but he didn't talk much to see her, and finally said, "Eldest sister, I'm still sorry for you." It's better for you to have a good time in the Chen family than to go back to the Gu family......" The smile was very numb.

When he left, he left himself two thousand taels of silver.

Jin Chao didn't understand his situation at the time, and later learned what Aunt Song and Gu Lan had done. She thought to herself that at that time, two thousand taels of silver was probably all he could take out. I gave it all to her, and gave it to his sister who he had always disdained and didn't want to see. Maybe it's really blood thicker than water, and he still takes care of her in the end.

Thinking of the tall but down-and-out man who was rickety on his back, Jin Chao couldn't bear to let Jin Rong go.

Qingpu and Mrs. Li were waiting for the young lady to make pastries, and from time to time they handed over things like rolling pins and ingredients.

Jin Chao made a mille-feuille crisp, a thin crust alternated with a layer of bean paste, fried in warm oil until golden and crispy, the surface was slag, and sesame sugar was sprinkled. Steamed a plate of Yunzi hemp leaf noodle fruit cake, mixed with crushed hemp leaves and glutinous rice and noodles, and coated with powdered sugar. I also made a stack of salty crisps, in the shape of sheep's horns, with a fresh egg yolk on the inside and a salt-and-pepper skin.

Qingpu looked fresh, and she had never seen the salty crispy.

Jin Chao washed his hands and asked people to bring things to the study, and she went over after that.

Gu Jinrong didn't really read in the Jin Dynasty's study, but sat on the Taishi chair and waited. After a while, Yutong and Yuzhu came in with plates, and put chopsticks on him, and three plates of dim sum rested on the blue, white and white porcelain plates, steaming, looking very appetizing.

Gu Jinrong felt a little uncomfortable and ate in the study...... He hadn't done it.

Jin Chao soon came in and said with a smile: "Don't use chopsticks, do you dislike my sister's craftsmanship?" ”

Speaking very intimately, Gu Jinrong looked up at her. The Jin Dynasty was dressed elegantly and cleanly, and only wore a wooden hairpin on the black hair like water, and carved magnolia flowers. He remembered that every time he saw Jin Chao, she was very delicate and full of pearls, but now she was dressed so plainly......

"Mother loves to eat this, she is sick, she can't eat things with heavy tastes, this dish of Yunzi hemp leaf noodle fruit cake is sweet and soft." Jin Chao personally put a piece into his plate.

Gu Jinrong tasted it, it was really sweet but not greasy, and there was a faint fragrance of hemp leaves, although it was coated with powdered sugar, the sweetness was just right.

"The eldest sister's skill in making dim sum is really good." He also praised it from the bottom of his heart.

He had faint doubts in his heart, and looked at Gu Jinchao carefully, but she smiled gently, and sandwiched the salty crisp for him: "...... Yanjing's dim sum is not common, you try it. ”

Gu Jinrong put down his chopsticks and hesitated for a moment. "Eating is secondary...... I heard not long ago that the eldest sister asked for someone from the second sister, but is that really the case? His tone was skeptical.

Jin Chao looked up at him, and his heart suddenly felt a little cold. She doesn't have to worry about yesterday's incident, after all, he grew up with Gu Lan, and the two should be closer. But she was disappointed that Gu Jinrong was so easily provoked by other people's words!

Heard? Who else can listen to it, except for Gu Lan, who will tell him that he has such a trivial matter as asking for a girl. Presumably in Gu Lan's narrative, she is just the ignorant concubine who relies on her identity to bully and oppress the concubine. Although Gu Jinrong is still young, it is time to be reasonable, he will believe whatever Gu Lan says, and he will come to question her with a blank eye, and he can't wait to seek justice for his second sister!

Although Jin Chao was angry in his heart, his face was very calm, and he replied lightly: "That's true." ”

Gu Jinrong remembered Gu Lan's appearance of swallowing his anger, and remembered that she was gentle and didn't like to fight with others, and she was bullied like this by Jin Chao, and she forgot everything for a while, and said coldly: "Second sister's person, why did the eldest sister say that she wanted it!" Although you are the eldest daughter, you have never bullied the concubine like this, and if you are not gentle and harmonious between brothers and sisters, will it not lose the face of your father and mother if you spread it! I think you should also return the person to the second sister, you already have so many girls yourself, why do you want the second sister! ”

These words everywhere reveal that the two have deep grievances.

Jin Chao looked at him calmly and said, "Brothers and sisters are gentle and harmonious? Jin Rong said this, then did you do it first. I am also your sister, the eldest sister is like a mother, you are so disrespectful to your sister, have you been gentle and harmonious? You haven't understood the sage books you've read for so long in the Seven Directions Academy. ”

"You said that I asked for someone from your second sister, did you first inquire who this person is, is it important to your second sister, and is she voluntary? I came to ask me in such a hurry, and I never thought about where my face would be if you begged that girl to go back. If you can't get it back, where is your face? You are now twelve years old, and you are not young, why do you still act like a child, doing whatever comes to mind! ”

In the last sentence, the voice suddenly froze.

Gu Jinrong was stunned for a while, he thought that if he came to her, if Gu Jinchao didn't care, then he could take the girl away immediately. If she cares, it's a big deal to quarrel or make a fuss, anyway, he has been dissatisfied with Gu Jinchao for a long time!

He didn't expect that Gu Jinchao's words would be pressed step by step, forcing him to be speechless for a while.

He didn't know that Gu Jinchao's eloquence was so good!
