Let's not talk about Mrs. Qu's family background, just say that after recognizing Mrs. Qu as her stepmother, she and Qu Hongan became brother and sister.

Even if Mrs. Qu admits that her daughter is not as simple as it seems on the surface, but for her, who has nothing to covet except for barbecue, she is really not afraid that Mrs. Qu's purpose of recognizing her daughter is not pure.

Is there really any ulterior motive, with the Qu family's family background and the background of the Ningyuan Palace, do you still need to spend a lot of time?

Even if there is a picture, all she can be pictured at the moment is a barbecue recipe, which is really not a big deal for her.

At that time, Ling Xiaorou stood up, lifted her clothes and bowed down to Mrs. Qu, and said: "My stepmother is above, please accept my daughter's worship!" ”

Mrs. Qu was overjoyed, and hurriedly let Ling Xiaorou get up, the more she looked at it, the more she loved it, and took off a pair of jasper bracelets from her wrist and put them on Ling Xiaorou's wrist, "Although this bracelet is not a valuable object, it has been worn by my mother for many years, and I will give it to my son today." ”

Although Mrs. Qu said that it was not a valuable object, Ling Xiaorou was knowledgeable, and just looking at the transparent and atmospheric color, it was also extremely valuable.

Ling Xiaorou didn't want it, but she couldn't stand Mrs. Qu's 'don't want it' eyes, so she had to accept it, "Rou'er thanked her stepmother." ”

But she thought in her heart that if Mrs. Qu treated her sincerely, she must be filial in the future, and she didn't dare to say anything else, and it was okay to often cook some meals that were beneficial to her body and mind.

Mrs. Qu grabbed Ling Xiaorou's hand and waved happily at the old princess, "Rou'er, this is your aunt, go and kowtow to your aunt." ”

Ling Xiaorou obediently kowtowed to the old princess again, and recognized King Ning Yuan's mother as her aunt, she will not be allowed to walk sideways in Jicheng in the future? Even if she doesn't want to use other people's power to build momentum for herself, it's still good to be able to block a lot of trouble.

Seeing that Mrs. Qu was struggling with her, the old princess was very envious, who let her give birth to two sons and both sons, when the old prince was still there, she wanted her daughter to think about the magic barrier.

However, it is not bad to have more nieces than daughters, and other aunts have called, and the old princess can't be stingy, so she asked people to get a set of purple jade and gold jewelry to give to Ling Xiaorou as a gift.

Of course, Mrs. Qu recognized that the righteous daughter couldn't just kowtow casually, and she had to wait until she returned to Gao County to do a good job.

Now that her identity has changed, Ling Xiaorou feels that the little things that have been pressed in her heart these days are nothing, even if Qu Hongan is unwilling, she has to accept her fate.

Thinking about Qu Hongan's distorted face after learning that his sweetheart had become his sister, Ling Xiaorou was in such a cool mood.

In her opinion, Qu Hongan is not a bad person, and if she can make him die without hurting his feelings, it is naturally the best.

Sitting together again, Ling Xiaorou's identity changed, Hexiang brought a group of little maids over to greet Ling Xiaorou, shouting 'Miss Rou'er', making Ling Xiaorou shy and speechless.

The title 'Miss' is quite noble here, but where she used to live, it is really not a good title.

The stepmother recognized it, and the barbecue was cold, but fortunately, the taste was still very good, and the old princess ate a piece of barbecue that tasted better than before, especially the radish flowers used for plating, which were really exquisite and liking.

After thinking about it, the old princess said: "This birthday banquet will have to worry about Lao Rouer, in addition to the barbecue recipe to hide well, there are some things to teach others to do." ”

Ling Xiaorou said yes, and the old princess said again: "I don't know how difficult the carvings in this plate are?" ”

Ling Xiaorou just wanted to say, 'It's not difficult', but the old princess continued: "Look at it, it's weird and delicious." ”

Ling Xiaorou was slightly stunned, she really couldn't see that the graceful and luxurious old princess was a real foodie.

Thinking about the gaffes who were shocked by the turnip flowers, Ling Xiaorou couldn't cry or laugh, sure enough, the interlaced lines were like mountains, anyway, the turnip flowers were placed in front of those chefs, and they wouldn't be willing to put their mouths down.

However, the delicate radish flowers were dipped in sauce and put into her mouth, Ling Xiaorou secretly inhaled and sucked her saliva, feeling that it was indeed strange and delicious.

"If my aunt likes it, what's so difficult about it, Rou'er will be cheeky and ugly."

Seeing the old princess's happy face, Xi Qiu, the eldest girl beside her, hurriedly came over and asked Ling Xiaorou: "I don't know what Miss Rou'er is going to use, the slave maid is ready for it." ”

Ling Xiaorou wrenched her fingers and said, "White radish, carrot, cucumber...... It's okay, and I asked my sister to bring my carving knife with me. ”

When she came to see Mrs. Qu and the old princess, she naturally couldn't bring a knife with her, so Ling Xiaorou handed over the carving knife to Wan Niang for temporary safekeeping.

Soon Xi Qiu brought people back, not only brought the ingredients that Ling Xiaorou said, but also brought a big watermelon, and said with a happy face: "Concubine, the prince has returned to the city, let people send these watermelons back first and invite the concubine to taste them, and the prince can return to the house after handling government affairs." ”

As soon as the old princess heard that her longing son was coming back, she sat up from the chair at that time, and felt too eager to think about it, so she sat down slowly, and looked serious, "Come back, come back, he still has some filial piety." ”

Ling Xiaorou looked funny, obviously she was a little out of shape when she heard that her son was happy to come back, but she still had to pretend to be indifferent, could it be that this mother and son were still awkward?

However, with the watermelon, Ling Xiaorou felt that her carving radish could be put in the future, and Xi Qiu had already smiled and ordered someone to cut the watermelon, and hurriedly stopped: "Wait!" ”

The person holding the knife shook his hand, and the knife almost cut into his hand, revealing a frightened expression towards Ling Xiaorou.

Ling Xiaorou smiled apologetically, "This watermelon is a good carved material." ”

"Rou'er doesn't hurry up yet!" The old princess and Mrs. Qu were all interested, thinking that if the watermelon flesh was carved into flowers again, the red flowers were really better than the white radish flowers.

So, while the old princess and Mrs. Qu were slowly eating the cold barbecue on their plates, they watched Ling Xiaorou quickly ...... the watermelon with a carving knife Peel.

Ling Xiaorou didn't think it would be difficult to carve, after all, no matter how beautiful it was, it would have to be eaten later, but to make the watermelon more beautiful and more appetizing, it would be much easier to carve.

First, peel off two-thirds of the green skin on the outside of the watermelon, leaving only a little bit at the bottom, revealing a thin layer of white melon scoops.

After that, Ling Xiaorou used a carving knife to mark the approximate position of the flower to be carved on the white watermelon scoop, and then saw the carving knife dancing quickly in her hand, first carving it from the top of the watermelon.

The knife slashed through the white scoop of the watermelon, forming a graceful arc with Ling Xiaorou's seemingly random movements, revealing the bright red and sandy melon flesh inside, and the sweet melon fragrance permeated the room, and everyone held their breath, for fear that the heavy breathing would disturb Ling Xiaorou.

Knife after knife, pieces of petals jumped out under Ling Xiaorou's hands, obviously it was a round watermelon before, and it was so beautiful under her skillful hands that even the well-informed old princess couldn't help but exclaim: This is simply a miracle.

When Ling Xiaorou's last knife fell,

A large blooming peony is surrounded by four smaller but beautiful flowers of different shapes, and the red petals gradually turn white from bottom to top, making it even more jade-colored. The green rim of the melon skin underneath is also carved into delicate leaves, which highlight the amazing beauty of the flowers above.

The whole watermelon looked like a beautifully carved jade, which made the old princess with the spoon tangled but couldn't eat, and finally put the spoon down.

"Rou'er, how can you carve a watermelon like this, so that your aunt can eat it?"

Ling Xiaorou playfully stuck out her tongue, "It's Rou'er who didn't think about it, next time I will carve one for my aunt to swallow." ”

Mrs. Qu scolded with a smile, "I think this girl is a heart, so I will punish you for carving some radish flowers so that your aunt can eat it." ”

Ling Xiaorou responded, picked up a washed radish, did not peel it, took a carving knife to cut off the thumb-length section of the radish first, and directly carved a radish flower with red petals and white on the top of the red radish skin flexibly and quickly.

"It's really pretty!" The old princess looked at the radish flower, endured it for a long time, and still took a bite of the radish flower, chewed a few mouthfuls and said in disgust: "It's still the smell of radish!" ”

Ling Xiaorou almost cried, isn't the radish carved out of the radish flavor? Concubine, you are really wise.

Mrs. Qu rolled her eyes, "Could it be that my sister still wants to eat the taste of bird's nest?" ”

The old princess smiled and changed the topic: "Rou'er, on the day of the birthday banquet, you can also carve a watermelon like this, so that those people can see the ability of our Ningyuan Palace." ”

"Rou'er will never let her aunt down!"

Ling Xiaorou naturally would not refuse, after recognizing Mrs. Qu as her stepmother, she didn't have to be cautious anymore, she originally wanted to show her hand at the birthday banquet, even if her real cooking skills could not be revealed, it was not difficult to become famous with barbecue and carving.

After accompanying Mrs. Qu and the old princess for a while, Ling Xiaorou proposed to retire on the grounds of going back to figure out how to carve flowers at the birthday banquet, and Mrs. Qu asked Hexiang to send her back.

secretly told Hexiang to spread the news that she had recognized Ling Xiaorou as a righteous daughter in the mansion, and her goddaughter was naturally different from those cooks, so she didn't have to be afraid that she would be embarrassed by the cooks, even in the future.

Secondly...... Naturally, I want to remind Qu Hongan that this beauty you miss is already your sister-in-law, don't beat her again in this life.

Ling Xiaorou didn't know what Mrs. Qu was secretly doing, and she brought her face towel when she went out, even if she had a tough backer, Ling Xiaorou still didn't want to show her beauty in front of people early.

Not to mention that she is just Mrs. Qu's daughter, she is Mrs. Qu's own daughter, and it is also troublesome for too many people to propose because of her beauty, at least before Ling Xiaorou planned to marry, she didn't want many people to see her appearance.

A man who wants to marry her just for her beauty, once his face is gone, what will he do to tie the man's heart when he is old?

Ling Xiaorou just wants to find a man who really respects her, loves her, and cherishes her, whether it is vigorous or plain, she can get along with each other and never abandon her in her life.

It seems simple, but it is not an easy task, after all, a man in this era, who doesn't want to have three wives and four concubines like Qu Hongan?

And as her Ling Xiaorou's man, she is destined to be ordinary in this life.

Therefore, Ling Xiaorou doesn't insist on fate, just go with the flow, I am fortunate to have it, and I have nothing to regret.
