Prepare a birthday gift
The next day, Mi Yue got up early in the morning and asked Yuhe to take out a plain and solemn dress.
Yesterday the queen's attitude was already clear, she was more or less suspicious of herself. At this time, you can't be too eye-catching, try to make yourself look ordinary, ordinary enough not to threaten anyone's status.
Mi Yue thought so, and stuffed a golden hairpin inlaid with jade into the hand of Yu He, who was combing her hair, with a simple and simple shape.
After packing up, Mi Yue went to visit the other concubines who had been married by the Chu State, Qu Shi, Jing Shi, Meng Zhao Shi and Ji Zhao Shi.
Mi Yue heard that in addition to the queen Mi Shu, the king was the first to favor the eldest Meng Zhao. Meng Zhao's concubine is the least outstanding and the oldest, and the king's move is really intriguing.
Mi Yue was polite to them, and each of them gave them a pair of bracelets and a pair of hairpin rings. The other three accepted it happily.
Only Meng Zhao's yin and yang sarcastically satirized Mi Yue and reluctantly accepted it. Mi Yue thought that she deserved to have a holy grace, and her tail was about to reach the sky.
is also stupid, he was the first to get the grace of the saint and attracted people's jealousy, and he didn't know how to restrain himself, so sooner or later he would have to be buried in this Qin Palace.
Qiuyue stayed up for several days and finally finished it, only to see that the original ordinary clothes were embroidered with a lifelike phoenix with dark gold thread, surrounded by colorful auspicious clouds.
The neckline and cuffs are trimmed with soft satin. When you lift your clothes, you will find that one side inside is a lifelike peony picture.
Qiu Yue breathed a long sigh of relief, folded the clothes, and took a delicate brocade box and put it in. Tomorrow is the lady's birthday banquet, so it's finally ready to be made.
At this moment, Xiang'er's voice came from outside the door: "Miss, Madame is here." Qiu Yue hurriedly put the brocade box in the bed and covered it, walked over and opened the door.
Mrs. Sima outside the door had a long face. Qiu Yue laughed with her, and quickly grabbed Madame's arm and mixed her in.
"Madame, what's wrong with you?" Mrs. stared at Qiu Yue with a pair of eyes, and her face was full of accusations: "You heartless girl, I haven't seen anyone in the past two days." What are you busy with? Don't worry about me at all. I've lost weight these days. When Qiu Yue heard this, she hurriedly compensated her wife: "Madam, don't be angry, I haven't been anywhere in the past few days, isn't this your birthday banquet coming soon, thinking about preparing a gift for you?" You know that I'm an orphan girl who has nothing, and I can't get any decent birthday gifts. Madame gently poked Qiu Yue's forehead with her fingers: "You stupid girl, you don't have to prepare anything for me, I don't have a daughter under my knees, you are my best birthday gift." Qiu Yue's eyes filled with tears when she heard this: "Madam, it is my blessing to meet you." Qiuyue must honor you well. Madame patted her hand and her eyes were red.
"Okay, if you don't cook me food these days, I can't eat it, so you can't treat me today?" Qiu Yue immediately put on a smiling face,
"No problem, just wait, you're satisfied." Qiu Yue ran into the kitchen and made a sweet and sour fish, a braised pork, an eight-treasure rice, and a seafood soup.
The dish was served, and the lady smelled the fragrant meal and did not forget her son.
"Yue'er, you see that you have made so much of this dish, why don't you call the wrong child to eat it together." Qiu Yue said: "Okay, madam, Brother Sima is tired from training for a day, so he should make up for it." So he sent someone to invite Sima to come and dine together.
When he arrived, his mother was swallowing impatiently. When they saw him, they were angry
"Why did you come? It's almost cold. Sima Cuo hurriedly apologized: "Mother, I always have to change my clothes..."
"If you don't go out to entertain guests, sit down and eat quickly." Sima Cuo didn't dare to speak anymore, and sat next to Qiu Yue obediently.
Qiu Yue couldn't help but wink at him. It made him blush to the root of his ears. Qiu Yue took a piece of braised pork and put it in Madame's bowl, and Madame ate it with great pleasure.
praised Qiuyue's craftsmanship again and again. Qiu Yue sandwiched another piece of fish meat and put it into Sima Cuo's bowl. Sima thanked him in a rough voice and ate it too.
For a moment, only the sound of two people chewing and swallowing remained. Qiu Yue watched them eat, and when she came back to her senses, she found that there was no soup on her plate.
She put down her chopsticks and glanced at the two of them
"Have you eaten enough? I also made a staple for me to pick up. The two men nodded frantically. Qiu Yue took the siu mai steamed on the drawer, because she was afraid that it would not be enough for her to make more.
The crystal clear and fragrant siu mai attracted a large group of girls. They all gathered around to see what Miss Qiuyue had cooked.
Qiuyue was not stingy: "This is called siu mai is a delicacy in our hometown, I made more, each of you will share a few to try it, I have been here for many days, thank you for taking care of it." Thank you for your continued care. Everyone was moved and grateful, and they were only treated as dignified people with Miss Qiuyue.
"Thank you, Miss Akizuki"
"Thank you, Miss"
"Miss, if you have anything to do, just tell the little one" Qiu Yue glanced at everyone gratefully, and returned to Tinglan Pavilion with the food box.
Madame and Sima Cuo smelled the fragrance from afar and hurriedly borrowed the food box in her hand, and the aroma came to their nostrils.
Qiu Yue hurriedly clipped a few for Mrs. and Sima Cuo. The two savored the taste, shiitake mushrooms, diced meat, fresh sauce and sweet and soft glutinous rice.
It turns out to be this flavor when it comes to mixing.
"Yue'er, you girl, I really want to keep you by my side for the rest of my life. Whoever marries you will be blessed. ”
"Oops, madam~" Akizuki stomped her foot shyly. Sima Cuo glanced at Qiu Yue secretly, his eyes flashed with anticipation, and then a trace of loneliness.
Suddenly, there was another roasted wheat in the bowl. Yue'er's bright smile bloomed like a flower. Sima Cuo also raised the corners of his mouth.
At least now, she's by my side, so, content. After the three of them finished eating, it was already dark.
Sima got up and said goodbye, Qiu Yue was a daughter after all, and he was worried about affecting her reputation. Madame took her by the hand for a while, and then got up and went back to rest.
When Qiu Yue was left alone, her heart turned upside down. Because from Sima Cuo's mouth, she heard that Mi Yue had returned.
Everything is going slowly according to its original trajectory. In other words, I have to speed up my pace.
Otherwise, history will repeat itself, and Zhai Li still can't get rid of the fate of a tragic death. Zhai Li, what are you doing now, do you still think of me occasionally?
Or do you miss Miyue every day? When you say goodbye, are you still the high-spirited King of Yiqu?
