Chapter 106: Auntie, Auntie
Seeing his gobbling appearance, the corners of Mu Jiaojiao's lips hooked slightly, and he silently pulled out half of the cold tao in the bowl and put it into the small bowl. "Bring it to Lang Jun. ”
"Aren't you going to eat?" Looking at this small bowl of food, Cui Pu's eyes lit up again.
"I can't eat it. Mu Jiaojiao said.
"Okay, then I'll help you out. Cui Pu seemed reluctant to say it, but the speed of receiving the bowl was quite fast. The speed of the chopsticks was faster, as if he was afraid that Mu Jiaojiao would regret it and go back to eat.
In the end, the four meals brought by red beans, Mu Jiaojiao only ate a small half bowl of cold tao, tasted a few pieces of sesame fragrant chicken and a cloud leg mooncake, and the rest went into Cui Pu's stomach.
But these things are too much for Mu Jiaojiao, but they are not enough for him as a man. But fortunately, there are things from the kitchen in his stomach, and Cui Pu is finally full.
After eating, the red beans brought up the white fungus orange petal soup, and Mu Jiaojiao and Cui Pu each drank a small and large bowl.
With enough water and food, Cui Pu wiped his mouth clean, and immediately stared at Mu Jiaojiao with a sinking face: "Why haven't you told me before?"
"What did you say?" Mu Jiaojiao looked puzzled.
Cui Pu was furious. "You knowingly asked!"
Mu Jiaojiao smiled. "There's a lot you don't know about me. And you haven't always rejected anything related to me before, and even if I had the heart to let you know what I like, you wouldn't have listened to it, right?"
Cui Pu pursed his lips in embarrassment. "That's it, you should have made it clear to me just now!"
"Tell me what? Don't you always praise the chef for making good food, and if you like it, why should I force you to give up what you like?"
That's because he didn't eat what the cook she brought! That's really delicious! The cook in Cui Mansion was crushed into scum when compared to them. He can't look at it anymore!
Now, he began to worry deeply: if he could never eat such a delicacy again, how would he live? He would definitely be lovesick!
However, Mu Jiaojiao didn't discuss this issue with him at all. After resting for a while and eating something more, she was in much better spirits. asked someone to change their clothes again, combed their hair a simpler way, and the little couple went to Aunt Zhao's residence.
Aunt Zhao was not favored in the Cui Mansion when she was young, but now that she is older, Cui Ge Lao is even less likely to go to her. But fortunately, she gave birth to a son, and Mrs. Cui is also generous, so she doesn't embarrass their aunts very much. So when arranging a place to live, Mrs. Cui arranged her in a two-way courtyard in the southwest corner, and assigned a few loyal girls to serve her. The courtyard where Cui Pu became married is in the southeast corner, not far from Aunt Zhao's residence.
When the two of them arrived at the gate of Aunt Zhao's courtyard, they heard Aunt Zhao scolding inside-
"Okay, a bride, after entering the door, she worshiped her aunt, met her brother and sister-in-law, and even the uncle and sister-in-law below gave her a generous gift, but she turned a blind eye to her serious aunt. When has it been, and I haven't seen them send a word of it, it's hateful! I'll give them another stick of incense, and if they don't come again, I'll ...... Hmph, I don't recognize this daughter-in-law, and I don't recognize that son!"
"Auntie, you've already given them a few sticks of incense just now......" the little maid on the side reminded weakly.
Aunt Zhao was stunned, and immediately raised her eyebrows, pinched the little girl's ears and lifted them up: "Do you want to remind you of this? Ah, do you want you to remind me? I know it in my heart, I remember it all! When I look back and wait for them to come, I will naturally count all the accounts on them, and count them back one by one!"
The little maid was in pain, and held back her tears and begged for mercy: "Auntie, the maid is wrong, please spare the maid!"
"Spare you, dream!"
"Auntie, the maid is really wrong!"
......
Hearing the sound inside, three black lines fell from Cui Pu's forehead. Now he had only one thought in his mind that kept jumping - he immediately turned around, and walked away without looking back!
But...... Quietly glanced at Mu Jiaojiao beside her, she was smiling at the corner of her lips, listening carefully to the voice inside. Sensing Cui Pu's eyes, she smiled at him: "Auntie is still so energetic, and her temperament is becoming more lively and likable - just like you." ”
What do you mean to be the same as him!? Cui Pu suddenly felt so desperate.
Could it be that in her eyes, his temperament is exactly the same as that of Aunt Zhao? This thought made his heart swell with despair.
And at this time, Mu Jiaojiao grabbed his hand: "Let's go." My aunt is already in a hurry, if we don't go in again, she will definitely blow up. ”
The girls in this yard have been frightened by Aunt Zhao's scolding. It was easy to see Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao appear, as if they had grasped a life-saving straw, a girl rushed into the courtyard and shouted at the top of her voice: "Auntie, Liulangjun and the bride have come to see you, and people will enter the door immediately!"
The shouting and scolding inside the wall disappeared immediately.
When Mu Jiaojiao and the two of them walked into the courtyard gate, they saw that it was empty, and only a little girl with red eyes and red ears was standing under the corridor. Seeing them, the little girl sniffed: "Liulangjun, Sixth Young Lady, my aunt said that she was not feeling well today and did not see guests, so you should go back!"
This is hypocritical...... It's breathtaking.
Cui Pu wanted to turn around and leave again. Mu Jiaojiao smiled when she heard this: "Auntie is not feeling well? I happened to bring a lot of good medicine, maybe I can cure my aunt's illness." I also asked this sister to guide the way and let me go to meet my aunt. ”
The little girl was afraid that they would turn around and leave directly when they heard this. Since no one is leaving now, she is busy breathing a sigh of relief and hurriedly turning around: "Since the sixth young lady insists on seeing you, then the aunt has to work harder to get up and see you." As she said this, she folded her hands and recited Amitabha Buddha to Mu Jiaojiao.
Mu Jiaojiao smiled kindly, and then pulled Cui Pu into the room again.
Aunt Zhao has been waiting for a long time. Hearing the sound of footsteps behind her, she immediately took a deep breath, straightened her back, and only held her back to them.
She's still pretending!
Cui Pu secretly gritted his teeth: "Auntie, I brought the bride to see you." ”
"Heh, what are you talking about? The bride is the sixth young lady of the Cui family, and her status is very noble, I am an aunt, how can I be qualified to come and see her? You better go, just leave the gift. Aunt Zhao said in a weird way.
Cui Pu couldn't bear it. He stepped forward in a few steps and twisted Aunt Zhao around: "Auntie, have you made enough trouble? The bride should have visited her aunt and uncle first when she entered the door." Now that she has the heart to come to see you on this day, it is not easy, what are you not satisfied with?"
"Who said I wasn't satisfied? I was so satisfied! Don't you see I'm smiling, I'm smiling so happily!" Aunt Zhao grinned, revealing sixteen white teeth.
Cui Pu couldn't close his eyes.
"Auntie, you ......"
"Auntie, the powder you put on your face now is really good, it fits your skin, and it looks very good, you should use the jasmine seed powder I introduced to you, right?" Mu Jiaojiao said suddenly.
"So what, although this thing was recommended by you, but I asked someone to buy it, and I asked someone to grind the powder, and the main credit is still on me!" Aunt Zhao immediately said.
"I know, I don't mean anything other than to compliment you on your better looks. Mu Jiaojiao said with a smile.
"That's a must, do you still need to say it?" Aunt Zhao said proudly.
Mu Jiaojiao continued to smile. "Auntie, don't you want to talk to me? In that case, forget it, Hongdou, let's go back! Leave a few pieces of jewelry and cloth, and we'll take the rest of the things back!"
"Wait!" As soon as Aunt Zhao heard this, she hurriedly rushed over to stop them, and her two eyes stuck to a purse about the size of two palms in Hongdou's hand, "What is it here?"
"Oh, nothing. The last time I went to Xiangji Temple, I saw that the peach blossoms there were blooming just right, so I picked some and brought them back, made some lipstick with fresh ones, and tried to add some refined peach blossom juice to the rouge gouache. After the thing is made, it has a faint peach blossom fragrance, and there is a bit of natural blush of peach blossoms on the face. I thought, auntie, you were born so well, this set of things is just right for you, so I brought it here. It's just that now I don't welcome you, auntie, so naturally you don't welcome the things I made with your own hands, why am I looking for no interest here? Mu Jiaojiao said, making a gesture to leave.
"Who said I don't welcome you?" I welcome you very much!" Aunt Zhao immediately changed her words, and quickly pulled Mu Jiaojiao over and sat down, "The sixth young lady is a new beginner, I only went to see Mrs. Ge Lao and Mrs. today, and I came to visit my aunt, this is to look down on me, and it also gives me a big face, I am too late to be happy, where do I dare to dislike it? The sixth young lady, please sit down, Liulangjun also sit, I will ask someone to serve you tea!"
Facing such a dog-legged aunt in his family, Cui Pu covered his face silently and had nothing to say.
