After marrying a concubine, I have the ability to read minds

Chapter 79 It's Snowing

Ye Hanyu lowered his eyebrows and looked at the little woman who was busy with him, and responded with a slight curl of his mouth: "Yeah. What did you prepare for dinner?"

"In this kind of weather, it's natural to eat hot pot. Grandpa wipes his face first, and I'll ask someone to bring the pot."

This time Ye Hanyu didn't wait for someone to serve her, she went to wash up by herself, and when he came out after washing, the strong fragrance had already wafted out.

The two couples sat down to eat, and chatted while cooking meat, "Did you make the new cloak?"

"Yeah, didn't the concubine say that that day? There are a lot of furs in the concubine's dowry. Seeing that it was getting cold, the concubine made two pieces for the master."

"How do you do it so fast? I don't usually see you sewing."

Gu Wanning said: "Master is not at home for most of the day, where to look? Besides, making a cloak is easy, with the help of a maid, it can be done in a few days."

The movements of Ye Hanyu's hands paused, "No wonder it's so fast, sir, the embroidery on the cloak is pretty good, is it also embroidered by your maid?"

"The inner fur, the outer smock, embroidery and tailoring that the maid sewed for the servant are all made by the concubine herself." Gu Wanning said casually.

Ye Hanyu's heart was instantly happy, and she picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it into Gu Wanning's bowl, "What did you do today?"

"Fifth sister-in-law came to chat with me, and Mrs. Lin was also there. We had lunch together, and then both of them went back when the snow got older." Let's gossip together, what else can she do?
"By the way, Mrs. Lin reminded my concubine that the one-month confinement period for those women in the backyard will end tomorrow."

Ye Hanyu froze for a moment, did a month pass so quickly?Those scriptures were checked by Su Mu. He seemed to mention it yesterday, saying that those women had finished writing. However, the gap was obvious. It's almost impossible to see.

"Come out as soon as they come out. It doesn't matter if they are honest and keep them for a while. If they are not honest, they will be cleaned up together. Be careful."

Gu Wanning: "...Master, can I ask you a question?"

"You said."

"They are also my master's women anyway, why does my master always want to deal with them?"

Ye Hanyu's hand that was picking up vegetables paused, and his mouth opened, but he didn't know what to think, and suddenly swallowed the words that came to his mouth, and changed into a sentence: "The meat is old."

Gu Wanning: ... Don't blame her for being dirty, she almost thought he thought those women were old!

But when he saw him stretching his chopsticks into the pot to hold the meat, he came back to it, oh, so he was really talking about the meat~
Just when she thought that Ye Hanyu was deliberately changing the subject and didn't want to answer her question, he finally said, "Because they need to clean up." Everyone has their own little thoughts, so if they don't clean up, they can save it for the New Year?
What kind of explanation is this?He might as well not say it!

What Gu Wanning heard was depressed, the meat in her mouth was no longer fragrant.

Ye Hanyu saw her expression in his eyes, but he was secretly happy in his heart. She never cared about his affairs before, but now, it seems to be different!
"The store Wu Ge bought in Xicheng District is already under renovation. After this snowfall, I don't think it will be able to open in ten days and half a month."

Gu Wanning used a small colander to scoop up some chicken balls and put them into Ye Hanyu's bowl, "That can't be helped. I don't know when the snow will stop. Father probably won't be able to sleep well tonight."

Ye Hanyu paused his chopsticks: "I'll go to Father's place to see later, do you still have that soup?"

"Do you want to give it to the father? There are still a lot. How about I cook two more dishes, so that the father can have a bite if he doesn't have dinner."

When Xue was just growing up, several important court officials all entered the palace. Later, news spread from the palace that several ministers and the two envoys of the Inspectorate were also called into the palace. It is estimated that they have not returned yet. .

Thinking of this, Gu Wanning had already got up, and hurried to the kitchen.

Ye Hanyu didn't stop him, he quickly took out the vegetables in the pot and ate them all, and then followed him to the kitchen.

It was winter, and the only green vegetables left were radishes, cabbage, sauerkraut, and so on. There were no fresh vegetables. However, Gu Wanning was with the master when she was a child, and learned a lot of life skills. She asked Qiu Ju and the others to prepare some boxes. There are some leeks, celery, cucumbers and rapeseed in it, but these are not available in a short time, so they sent out some soybean sprouts and mung bean sprouts.

Coincidentally, she ate a pot of bean sprouts sent out a few days ago, and there were still some left over. I fried a dish of bean sprouts with shredded pork, a dish of hot and sour cabbage shreds, and asked Qiu Ju to bake five or six pancakes. There is a large portion of belly yam soup, and the meat sauce made by myself is put into the food box. The food box itself is double-layered and can be filled with hot water. Also still hot.

Ye Hanyu put on her cloak and hat, and Su Mu followed with a food box. The two of them were very fast, and disappeared from Gu Wanning's sight after a while.

……

In the Chaoyang Palace, the emperor hadn’t had his meal yet, and Qin Tianjian was standing in the hall with a perplexed expression and answered the emperor’s words, “I really can’t predict when the snow will stop, but I can be sure that today It's just the beginning."

"Can you predict the snowfall range?"

"To the east and north of the capital, the snowfall decreases the further north you go." This should be considered good news.

The emperor's face is still not good-looking. If there is such a heavy snowfall in the Liang Dynasty, then the north will not be safe this year. Fortunately, the supplies requested by the King of War have been safely delivered to the station, and there are food and grass supplies. , the hundreds of thousands of troops should not be too sad this winter.

Hope this snow will stop soon.

"Have the affairs of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry been arranged? This snowstorm was predicted in advance, and the disaster relief work must be arranged well, otherwise, you will be dismissed from office."

Cold sweat broke out on Zuo Wenlang's forehead, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and even the old fox Lu Shangshu felt a little uneasy, for fear that things that had been arranged would go wrong. I'm a little worried, please ask the emperor Yunchen to wait in the yamen to watch, so that he can direct in the middle."

The emperor waved his hand: "Go back, remember to report any situation in time, if you dare to make a false report, once it is verified, I will let you go home and eat yourself."

All the ministers: ...they are going home to eat themselves now, the emperor is really tough, what time is this, and they are not going to reward them with a bite of food.

"The ministers respect the sacred will, and the ministers leave."

After sending these ministers away, Li Changhai immediately stepped into the hall again, "Your Majesty, Prince Yujun is here."

Ye Chonghua was startled: "When did you come?"

"A few adults came here when the adults were around. The slave saw that what was said in it was almost the same and invited them to the side hall. King Yu probably came here with a food box in his hand because he was afraid that you would forget to eat when you were busy. .”

"Well, hurry up and invite someone over."
