Chapter 889: Longevity Noodles
Liu Jiaomo bit her lip tightly and was silent.
Mei Aoxue smiled: "Sister Mo, do you think this ending is perfect? Everyone will be happy then, isn't it?"
Liu Jiaomo lowered his head and said, "I'm afraid that Ah Long won't forgive me!"
Mei Aoxue said with a smile: "You can put a hundred hearts on this, and when he can't find anyone, you will put all the responsibility on us, and just say that you don't know, isn't it over?"
Liu Jiaomo bit her lip tightly, her lips were about to bleed, so she didn't make any more noise.
Mei Aoxue led her to her room and let Liu Jiaomo sit alone in her room for a while, while she went to discuss it with his brother, because the plan was about to be launched, and tomorrow would be her grandfather's birthday, and they didn't want Ah Long or something to appear at the birthday banquet and affect Ah Zi's reputation.
Mei Aoxue had already made a detailed plan with Mei Aobing, so she also confirmed it in the past, and after confirming it, she returned to her room and led Liu Jiaomo to the courtyard where Jiang Xiaobai was.
Jiang Xiaobai was playing chess with Hua Zizi in the room, Hua Zizi knew that it was not Jiang Xiaobai's opponent, so she asked others to help her staff officer, which was in line with Bu Xiu's mind, and finally did not have to bear the notoriety of "watching chess and talking a real villain", and played his chess skills to the fullest, holding a red apple in his hand, while gnawing while guiding, originally let Hua Zizi play alone, although not Jiang Xiaobai's opponent, but he would not lose too embarrassed, as a result, thanks to Bu Xiu's guidance, the apple in Bu Xiu's hand has not been gnawed, and it has been lost cleanly.
Hua Zizi stretched out her hand and pushed Bu Xiu away, and said while pushing: "I don't want you to guide, I can't understand the chess path you take at all, I thought you were a master, but I didn't expect the level to be more stinky than me!"
Bu Xiu was still unconvinced, gnawed on the apple and said: "Without my guidance, you will only lose even more, don't believe it and see!"
Charlie said: "Shameless, shameless, shameless, you still eat apples while eating, let me guide you, let you see, what is a great chess skill!"
Hua Zizi hurriedly shook her hands and said, "I don't want your guidance, I'll come by myself, I'll come by myself, your level is too good, I can't understand it!"
A few people laughed.
Liu Jiaomo just walked to the door, and when she heard the cheerful laughter inside, she was happy, as if when she was not there, their happiness would come from the bottom of her heart, originally along the way, she had been hesitating, and wanted to regret it several times, but at this moment, his heart was firm.
Seeing the two of them entering, the laughter of several people stopped abruptly, Jiang Xiaobai turned his head and smiled: "Where have you gone to go shopping again?"
Liu Jiaomo said: "I want you to take care of it!"
Jiang Xiaobai smiled: "Okay, I don't care!"
Mei Aoxue walked to the table and said with a smile: "Sister Azi is so Yaxing!"
Hua Zizi said with a smile: "Idle and boring to kill time in two rounds, it has nothing to do with Yaxing!"
Mei Aoxue said: "Sister Zi, I came to ask you for a favor." ”
Hua Zizi was stunned: "What can I help?" But you said that as long as I can do it, I will definitely help you. ”
Mei Aoxue smiled: "Sister doesn't have to be nervous, and it's not a big deal. Isn't tomorrow my grandfather's birthday, our custom here is that the birthday star should eat longevity noodles a day in advance, but you must find two girls who are ice clear and jade to cook noodles, of course, it must be the more beautiful the better, that kind of noodles are blessed, which also means that future generations can also become as perfect as the noodle cooks, and there will be no crooked melons and cracked dates. Two days ago, my grandfather came, and he took a fancy to you and Sister Mo, and felt that your two sisters were very beautiful and perfect, and he wanted to look forward to his children and grandchildren being as perfect as the two sisters, so he specially confessed that he wanted to trouble the two sisters to cook longevity noodles for him, Sister Mo, I have already said it, so I will invite you now. ”
Buxiu couldn't help but say, "Your customs here are quite special!"
Mei Aoxue said: "Of course, we are a special place here. ”
Bu Xiu said: "Do you need to find two more boys who are ice and jade to go together? My noodle cooking skills are not bad, my family used to fry fried fritters, and I am very good at flour." ”
Mei Aoxue said: "Men don't have ice and jade, so they want women to cook noodles!" turned her head and looked at Hua Zizi again, and said: "Sister, okay? ”
Hua Zizi smiled and said: "I'm not pretty, but since the old palace master can afford it, then it's better to be respectful, it's better to obey my fate, it's just that my skills are not good, I'm not afraid of Miss Mei's jokes when I say it, I haven't cooked it yet! The cooked noodles may be difficult to eat, don't mind the old palace master then!"
Mei Aoxue said with a smile: "It's okay, longevity noodles are originally a kind of meaning, just to ask for a lottery, and since my grandfather chose two sisters, he will definitely not feel unpalatable, when he thinks that future generations can be as beautiful as the two sisters, he is too late to be happy!"
Hua Zizi smiled: "You are already very beautiful!"
Mei Aoxue smiled: "It's far worse than my sister!"
Hua Zizi said, "Do you want to go now?"
Mei Aoxue nodded and said, "Everything is ready, just wait for the two sisters to show their skills." ”
Hua Zizi stood up and said, "Since that's the case, then let's go now, right?" Sister Mo, do you think it's okay?"
Liu Jiaomo was a little dazed, nodded and said, "Okay!"
Jiang Xiaobai looked at Hua Zizi and said, "Is your body okay?"
Hua Zizi smiled: "My body has fully recovered, if it weren't for the birthday of the old palace master tomorrow, I would have left the Beihan Palace, besides, isn't it just cooking bowls of noodles!"
Mei Aoxue said: "That's it, I'll be back in a while, don't worry, I won't let Sister Ah Zi be tired, besides, there is Sister Mo to help, what are you afraid of?"
Hua Zizi smiled: "I'm not so delicate, it's really fine!"
Liu Jiaomo saw that Fan Sili was also there, so she said: "Sili, since it is inconvenient for men to go, why don't you also go and play?"
She wanted to bring Fan Sili with her, so as to alleviate the guilt in her heart.
But Fan Sili's current mood is not beautiful at all, there are three women, people like two of them, but they don't like her, although she also knows that she is not as beautiful as Hua Zizi, but this feeling of being openly disgusted is really uncomfortable, then pouted and said, "I won't go!"
Wang Qinghu also felt it, and at this time he took her hand and whispered in her ear: "You are the most beautiful in my eyes." ”
Fan Sili rolled his eyes and sneered.
Liu Jiaomo didn't persuade again, and the three women walked out of the room and walked out of the courtyard.
Bu Xiu stood at the door and whispered: "What kind of broken custom is this in the Northern Cold Palace, a woman who cooks noodles and is still cold and jade?"
Jiang Xiaobai said: "Don't talk nonsense, follow the customs!"
Buhu said: "Okay!"
Mei Aoxue led Hua Zizi and Liu Jiaomo to walk a long way, originally they lived in the southeast corner of the North Han Palace, but they took them to the northwest corner, all the way to the cold wind, Hua Zizi couldn't help but wrap her clothes tightly.
At this time, when they walked to a palace, Mei Aoxue took them in, but found that there was a step in the hall leading to the underground, and Mei Aoxue took the lead to go down.
Hua Zizi felt strange and said, "Miss Mei, shouldn't you go to the kitchen?
Mei Aoxue turned her head and smiled: "Our customs here are different from the outside, the taste of longevity noodles cannot be smelled by outsiders, it is said that being smelled by others will reduce the lifespan of the birthday star, so it can only be cooked in the basement, so that no one can smell it." ”
Hua Zizi smiled: "Your customs here are so strange!"
Mei Aoxue said: "Who said it wasn't? But my grandfather believes in this, the older he gets, the more afraid he is of death, so he believes it." ”
Hua Zizi smiled: "It's no wonder! Who doesn't want to live long?"
Mei Aoxue said: "It's good that my sister understands!"
Hua Zizi said: "What's not understanding about this? For me, it's the same wherever it's cooked!"
The passage is very wide, and there is no problem for seven or eight people to walk side by side, but there are many guards standing on both sides, three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, Hua Zizi has a simple temperament, and only thinks that the Mei family brothers and sisters are good, and there is no doubt at all, I just think it's funny, isn't it just cooking bowl noodles?
Walking down the steps to a depth of more than ten zhang, the ground becomes flat, the walls and the ground are still made of ice carvings, but the ice is embedded with night pearls, whether it is the wall or the ground, it is bright, like the feeling of the sun shining into the ice, like a dream.
At this time, an igloo appeared on the side, and it was also bright inside, and there were several aunts standing, as if they had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Mei Aoxue, they bent down to say hello.
Although these aunts are wearing inferior clothes and wearing aprons, they are probably ready to give them a hand, but Hua Zizi always feels that these women are not like ordinary handymen, their eyes are keen, and they exude a temperament that can only be dyed by long-term residents.
But Hua Zizi didn't care, thinking that she probably thought too much, how could a person who had lived on the people for a long time be a servant?
The igloo has a stove in the middle, a charcoal fire has been lit inside, and there is a table next to it with noodles and vegetables on it, and it seems that everything is really ready, waiting for them to show their skills. But to their surprise, there were also two wooden barrels next to them, which were steaming with hot water.
But Hua Zizi didn't ask much, and then walked to the stove, looked at Mei Aoxue and smiled: "Can you start now?"
At this time, an old woman came over and said with a smile: "Girls don't have to be anxious, we are particular about making longevity noodles here, and we also invite the two girls to bathe and change clothes, so that the noodles will be more pure!"
Hua Zizi was stunned: "There is still this kind of exquisiteness?"
Mei Aoxue said with a smile: "That's it, there are many rules here, anyway, just take a shower, there are no other rules below, please trouble my sister! Don't worry, this place is full of women!"
