Chapter 17
The next half month was actually a rare calm.
Spring is getting stronger,
The green willows drooping down lightly touch the mirror lake, causing layer upon layer of ripples to startle the koi in the water.
Ever since Shu Nuo made steamed stuffed buns, Chu Jiangsu has been ordering food every now and then. Today is herbal fish meatballs, and tomorrow is minced pepper and tiger skin rolls. Gradually, Shu Nuo has basically contracted all of Chu Jiangsu's dishes. meal.
At first, Eunuch Jia and the others were naturally not happy. Every time Shu Nuo cooked, there would be eight pairs of eyes staring at him, and more than a dozen people would test the poison. The so-called poison test is to put the food in his mouth and taste a small bite, to feel Will there be any changes in the lower body?
Over time, seeing them scrambling to 'experience the poison' has become one of Shu Nuo's rare joys, but helplessly, this fun was finally ended by Chu Jiangsu's 'not enough to eat'.
"Hey, what are you going to do for Lord Hou today?"
Old Hu twirled his long beard with his hands, and stood by the stove and asked.
His waist was straight and his eyes were serious. If it weren't for the flickering glances in his eyes, Shu Nuo really thought he was here to inspect, "It's approaching early summer, and I saw that the rhizomes in the lake are growing new lotus leaves, which are just tender. So I decided to take this opportunity to make a lotus root powder and lotus sugar cake."
"Tang cake." Lao Hu repeated, and slowly moved towards her, asking in a low voice, "Then how many pieces are you going to make?"
Shu Nuo raised the corners of his mouth to hold back a smile, and asked in a pretendingly puzzled manner, "Then how many pieces do you think would be better?"
After hearing this, Lao Hu went straight to Shu Nuo's side, and carefully began to analyze it for her: "Look, I think so. If you do less, Master Hou will not be able to eat enough. If you cook properly, Master Hou The second time you want to eat it, you have to do it twice, but if you make more..."
Shu Nuo gave an 'oh' very cooperatively, and also whispered: "Don't worry, your share has been prepared long ago, and I will never forget it."
"Look at what you brat said, how can this old man be so greedy." Lao Hu reprimanded twice in a feigned anger, and then lowered his head and leaned over. For the body..."
"You old bastard!"
A shrill, feminine voice suddenly sounded, Lao Hu covered his ears, while Shu Nuo quietly moved the dough aside.
Eunuch Jia walked in and pointed at Lao Hu with an angry expression: "The miscellaneous family asked you to follow, but you are here to beg for pastries. What, it is usually because of you, or because you are hungry, huh?"
Lao Hu was a little guilty, but he still retorted: "Human, there is always a little bit of hobbies. Although you are the chief steward of the imperial court, you can't always be in charge of things."
……
Seeing that the smell of gunpowder in the imperial dining room was about to become stronger, Shu Nuo put down the dough, went to the long wooden cabinet by the corner to look for seasonings, and tried to reduce the sense of presence.
'boom'.
She seemed to have been bumped lightly on the lower back by someone, and when she turned her head, she saw a little eunuch who lowered his head very low, reached out and took out an oiled paper bag from his sleeve robe and carefully handed it to her.
"The imperial concubine ordered you to find a time to feed this to Chu Linghou, and then you can go pick up the fourth princess."
Shu Nuo weighed it: "Poison?"
The little eunuch's voice was even softer: "I don't know, so don't ask."
After that, he turned and left.
Shu Nuo put away the greased paper, picked up a can of sugar and a small can of honey, and walked back to the stove. The two of them had almost quarreled, and they were staring at each other to take a rest. Eunuch Jia saw Shu Nuo walking back with the two jars in his arms. , Fuchen flicked and snorted coldly: "What the hell is this? What are you thinking about?"
Shu Nuo put it down: "It's the sugar and honey from the imperial dining room."
Eunuch Jia lifted the lid of the jar and pinched some with his fingertips, put it under his nose to sniff, and then put it in his mouth to taste.
"I said you don't care?" Lao Hu frowned, "We are all standing here, can she still poison you and me right under our noses?"
Eunuch Jia rolled his eyes at him: "It's because of your old foolishness that Lord Hou became what he is now."
Old Hu waved his hands impatiently: "It's all my fault, you take care of it."
"Humph!"
If it is said that Lao Hu is here to watch over her, then Eunuch Jia is definitely a watcher, with a pair of eyes staring at her without success, Shu Nuo is afraid that he will drop his eyeballs into the pot.
The lotus root starch candy cake was served on the plate, as soon as Shu Nuo scooped it up, a little eunuch immediately came up to help, lowered her head, and remained silent, she knew with a glance that it was the person who stuffed the paper bag just now.
It seems that Concubine Fu Gui is going to keep an eye on her.
The warm sun at noon was very gentle. When Shu Nuo walked into the imperial study, he saw Chu Jiang Su leaning on the bed with sleepy eyes, his bright red robe spread out like a bloom on the other side, his black hair like splashed ink, and his skin like ice. The light falling from outside the window actually made his whole body a bit softer.
Seeing her coming, Chu Jiangsu immediately sat up straight and called softly, "Piao Piao."
Shu Nuo let out a light 'hmm', then changed hands and put the lotus root powder and lotus candy cake in front of him, "It's freshly baked, try it."
Putting down the half-open scroll in his hand, he picked up a piece of sugar cake and put it in his mouth, Chu Jiangsu's eyes lit up.
"Is it tasty?"
"good to eat."
Shu Nuo looked at him eating the cake with a smile, and his heart was so touched that he wanted to reach out his hand to touch his head, but he raised his fingertips and curled them up again. Shu Nuo turned his head and saw the little eunuch who had been silent all this time staring coldly at him. looking at her.
Lao Hu had already run away with Tang Cake in his arms, while Eunuch Jia surrounded Chu Jiangsu to serve him.
She lowered her eyelashes and stepped back quietly, picked up the teapot with a slender spout on the table, took out the medicine bag and sprinkled it in while no one was paying attention, lifted it up and shook it a few times, then raised her head and looked out the door. The eunuch lowered his head.
"Have some tea."
Shu Nuo poured a cup of tea and put it in front of Chu Jiangsu.
Eunuch Jia stretched out his hand to stop it: "This tea is too hot, wait for the miscellaneous family to give it to Lord Hou..."
"It's okay." Chu Jiangsu passed by him, took the teacup and took a few sips.
Shu Nuo watched, feeling a little pity in his heart for some reason.
A plate of lotus root powder sugar cake disappeared two or three pieces, Chu Jiangsu suddenly felt a little hot, this kind of heat is very strange, not the burning sensation on the skin from the scorching sun, but the kind of annoying heat that burns from the bottom of the heart, and...
He glanced sideways at the white-robed 'young man' who was arranging paperwork, and felt that it would be cool and comfortable to hold her, but why did he feel so...?
are you sick?
"Master Hou, what's the matter with you?" Eunuch Jia asked hurriedly when he noticed Chu Jiangsu's strange behavior.
Chu Jiangsu was already dazed and irritable and speechless, Shu Nuo stretched out his hand to support him, and said, "Why don't you deal with business, go back and rest first."
The icy cold fingertips made him feel very comfortable, and Chu Jiangsu vaguely stuck to her side again, and responded softly.
Chu Sansui: Piao Piao, I want to eat shortbread~
Chu Sansui: Piao Piao, I want to eat meatballs~
Chu Sansui: Piao Piao, I want to eat lotus root powder~
……
So here comes the question, the monthly salary of the chef of Yushan cooking is about [-] taels, how much will Shu Nuo get if he doubles cooking?
Shu Nuo (beats the hand holding the pot):? ? !
(Please feed it!!!)
