Chapter 15 Give Him Bitter Melon Soup

Zhang Jian said with a little worry: "Then you go back and rest first." ”

Li Baojia rolled his eyes silently, and also said with a blessing: "Brother-in-law, I will also leave first, and then I will set off with my sister after the Lantern Festival." ”

When Li Baojia and Xiao Tao walked out of Zhang's mansion, Xiao Tao couldn't wait to ask, "Miss, when did you let the eldest young master pick it up?" I follow you every day, how come I don't know about this? ”

Li Jiaying also has an elder brother named Li Yu, who is the leader in the family, followed by Mrs. Qin's eldest son, the second young master Li Mingxuan, and the third young master Li Li.

Li Baojia got into the carriage and said while nibbling on a small snack: "I didn't let him pick it up, I haven't said it yet." ”

Peach's mouth was open enough to stuff an egg: "That, then you just said ......"

Li Baojia changed hands and gave her a slap: "You are stupid, I don't say so, can he agree?" I'll just write a letter to my eldest brother when I go back, my eldest brother has been at my grandfather's place in Jizhou recently, and it's only a few days away from here. ”

Xiao Tao covered her forehead and nodded approvingly: "Miss is amazing!" ”

"By the way, did you find the Ping clan I asked you to check before?"

Xiao Tao got up: "I found some, Ping's full name is Ping Qingqing, and she is Zhang Shilang's cousin, because her family has been living in Zhang's house." ”

It is said that he and Zhang Shilang are in love, but Mrs. Zhang does not agree with this family affair and beats the mandarin duck. Later, the Zhang family fell into the middle of the road, and Ping Qingqing married a wealthy man in Yizhou...... It seems that the surname is Wang, and then somehow now it is back. ”

"Miss, was this Ping driven back because it was found that the child was not her husband's?" Momo asked.

Li Baojia tapped his fingers lightly: "If they find out that the children are not from the Wang family, can she come back so easily?" If you don't die, you'll lose your skin. ”

Since the last time she knew about this, she asked Xiao Tao to check this Ping Qingqing, but what Xiao Tao can find out is limited after all, and many things are not clear.

After returning to his own courtyard in the Li Mansion, Li Baojia sat down to write a letter to his eldest brother in Yizhou.

In addition to asking him to come to the capital to pick them up and return them to Suzhou, the letter also asked him to help check the situation of the Yizhou Wang family and the Ping family.

After writing it, she folded the letter paper and asked Xiao Tao to send it to Yizhou quickly.

Xiao Tao finished ordering, cleaned up the desktop, and suddenly thought that Miss was going to Suzhou, and she hadn't told Mrs. yet!

Xiao Tao was a little worried: "Miss, can Madame agree to you going to Suzhou?" After all, after the Lantern Festival, if you really get married, you have to prepare for some time. ”

Li Baojia was confident: "My grandfather's house is also in Suzhou, and I haven't been to see it for a long time, so I just took this opportunity to go." Mother will not refuse. ”

Besides, after the Lantern Festival, they will know that it will not be possible.

Sure enough, Mrs. Huang came over at dinner, and Li Baojia mentioned this matter to her, but she didn't agree at first, and she said that she was going to her grandfather's house to have a look.

Mrs. Huang thought that the opportunity was rare, and it would be even more difficult to see it when she got married in the future, so she agreed.

After Mrs. Huang left, Xiao Tao was so happy that she almost jumped up: "Great! Miss, let's pack our things! ”

Li Baojia lay down there after eating: "Don't be in a hurry to pack up your things, just make a list in the next few days." ”

The first thing she has to face now is to bring soup to Zhao Yi tomorrow morning.

It's so hard to do.

Just thinking about this, the people from the kitchen below came over to ask for instructions: "Miss, which soup should you choose to send to the prince's mansion tomorrow?" ”

After speaking, he handed over a list, and there were a lot of soups listed on it.

Li Baojia tilted his neck and pointed casually: "That's it, bitter gourd and black phoenix soup." ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has big fish and meat every day, and he just went to the fire.

The little cook said, "Miss, Madame tells you to go at the hour, so you have to prepare tonight." ”

Li Baojia sat up: "You think I look like I can make soup?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince drank my soup, what should I do if something goes wrong? ”

The little cook was stunned and said in fear: "That...... And the lady said......"

Li Baojia sighed: "I'll make the soup, you will assist me next to me, is this soup made by you or me?" ”

"Of course you did."

"Does it matter how much you do and how much I do?"

"Nothing, no?"

Li Baojia nodded, looking like a teachable child, and let people go out.

On the way back, the little chef's head was still dizzy, she always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't say it, so she had to prepare the ingredients diligently.

——

Early the next morning.

Li Baojia got up and cleaned it, put on her skirt, and sat in front of the bronze mirror, very satisfied with herself today.

Although she planned to come back with a card at the gate of the East Palace, she still dressed low-key just in case.

He has a simple bun tied on his head, decorated with some pink beaded flowers, and the skirt on his body is just right, neither headless nor shabby.

But no matter how low-key you dress, your natural beauty can't be hidden, Li Baojia thought beautifully in the mirror.

After a while, the cook brought the soup, put it in a white porcelain jar, and steamed, Li Baojia cleaned her hands with a holy face: "Take it." ”

Xiao Tao next to him handed over the green jar in his hand with a solemn face, and Li Baojia took it, it was a jar of salt.

She took a small spoon and scooped it a little, sprinkled it into the soup, and asked the cook next to her, "Is it enough?" ”

The cook estimated and said, "Put another half a spoonful." ”

Li Baojia took the spoon and scooped half a spoonful.

Much more.

Pour a little more.

Less.

Toss a few times before putting the salt in.

After putting it in, he took a spoon and stirred the soup: "One soup is done!" ”

Xiao Tao next to her looked excited: "Miss is so powerful!" ”

The cook also admired: as a young lady with gold and jade, she can even make soup, which is too powerful.

Li Baojia raised his little face proudly: "This is nothing." ”

The rest of the room: It's really nothing. =_=

So he took the soup, and Li Baojia set off with Xiao Taoxiong.

The food box is made of wood and wrapped with a special material that keeps the soup hot for several hours.

She smelled the fragrance in the carriage and touched her little belly: "I knew I got up early today, but now I can't stand the smell." ”

Xiao Tao immediately said: "Miss, I will call you at three o'clock today, and you have been lying in bed for three quarters of an hour." ”

Li Baojia glanced at the soup and then again: "I regret it very much now, I just want to send it back for breakfast as soon as possible." ”

——

When they arrived at the gate of the East Palace, they showed their tokens, and the two went in.

Father-in-law Huang had been waiting for her at the gate of the hall for a long time, and when he saw her coming, he greeted her with a smile: "Miss Li is here?" ”

When he got up this morning, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in an unprecedentedly good mood, and now that the group of people who came back from the previous dynasty said some stupid things about the drought in the south of the Yangtze River, His Highness was not angry.

Li Baojia handed the food box to Huang Gonggong's hand, and said with a smirk: "Your Highness has every opportunity, just ask Huang Gonggong to bring the soup in, and I won't go in to disturb it." ”
