The Duke’s wife is beautiful but has a dark heart

The prince was a little tired during the Chinese New Year.

Today, I went to the palace to light a lantern with the emperor and then returned home.

The Queen didn't know what was going on, so she left the Crown Princess and the Grand Concubine behind.

The grandson came back with the prince and settled him in place.

After thinking for a while, he stepped into the backyard.

This is his first time to visit the concubine.

As soon as I entered, I found that the courtyard was lit with several lamps of various colors, which made it bright.

The doors and windows were open, and one could see that the house was bustling with activity. A charcoal stove was set up, and the copper pot above was steaming.

What are you cooking?

Before I entered the house, I smelled a pleasant smell, which seemed to be southern wine, also called Shizi mash.

When a palace daughter saw him coming, she quickly saluted: "Concubine, your highness is here."

Jiang Pingting saw the glutinous rice balls floating up and rolling them again, and they were ready for serving in bowls.

Why is he here? !

It’s still this time!

I just feel annoyed. Stand up and say: "Your Highness!"

Taisun felt uncomfortable seeing her perfunctory attitude and lack of smile.

Whose house did he enter and everyone was so excited?

Even Xue Ying, no matter how angry she was, she would get better as soon as she left.

Why does this guy have such a stinky face?

"Well, let me take a look. What are you doing here?"

"Cook glutinous rice balls."

"Why did you cook it yourself? The kitchen didn't send it to you?"

"This is brought in raw from outside. So cook it yourself!"

"Nonsense! How can the food from outside be brought in so easily?"

"Yes. Pay attention next time!" Jiang Pingting said nonchalantly, but kept her eyes on the pot.

It's already cooked. If it's overcooked, it won't taste good.

"Your Highness, please take a seat. Your Highness, the glutinous rice balls are ready. Do you want to try two?"

Taisun complained in his heart: Two? Just give me two? What a rarity! snort.

"Okay, give me a bowl..."

Jiang Pingting was very angry.

Wen Yu asked Yan Zhu to bring a lamp and a box of glutinous rice balls, only twenty of them! Fortunately, there is still a can of glutinous rice.

At this moment, she was halfway through cooking.

There are ten more, I want to cook them for breakfast tomorrow!

Her appetite is quite good! These ten are considered her midnight snack after dinner...

But he already said it...

"Qiu'er, get another bowl for His Highness!"

The grandson seemed to sense a sense of disgust...

Qiu'er responded. She wasn't sure how much the empress planned to feed His Highness, so she handed the bowl to the empress directly.

At this moment, Jiang Pingting also figured it out!

If you want to eat, let that girl Zhuzhu do it! Don't be stingy now.

So she pretended to be...five for her great-grandson, each of them had half a son. Isn't it stingy?

But it seemed like it was a little missing, so I added some glutinous rice wine and handed it to my grandson.

The grandson received more than half the bowl in her hand. She was so generous!

Jiang Pingting ignored him and scooped out the food on her own, eating it happily.

The grandson didn't like it and threw one into his mouth. It was so hot...

He quickly picked it up with a spoon and glanced at it. Well, luckily no one saw it.

Bite it open...it smells so good!

Black sesame? !

The palace is accustomed to the northern Yuanxiao, which is tougher and stronger than this.

And this one melts in your mouth, with the aroma of mash wine. When you eat it, a wave of heat will come up along with the aroma.

Well, that's pretty good.

Bite again, what is this?

After tasting it carefully for a long time, it seemed to be from peanuts.

Another one, sour, hawthorn?

And this is...meat?

"Is this meat?" he asked.

Jiang Pingting said: "It's salted ham! It's delicious!"

Grandson accidentally ate all the food and even drank the glutinous rice wine.

Holding the empty bowl, he watched Pingting chew her food carefully.

"Any more?" he asked.

Jiang Pingting didn't want to say anything, so she chewed it for a while and then swallowed it all. Seeing that her grandson was still waiting for her answer.

"Ten more."

"Cook it all, I'll bring it to Father!"

"..." Jiang Pingting felt that he was shameless. Was it because he wanted to eat it?

"Didn't you say that it was brought in from outside..."

"I've tried it for my father, it's okay."

"Will it get cold if you serve it? It's not good for the prince to eat these cold and sticky things."

"Bring the glutinous rice balls and that... rice wine, and find a palace maid who can cook to follow you! No, you can cook it yourself!"

"..." My breakfast was ruined, can I still work? !

Jiang Pingting secretly hates her, why did she recruit him? !

So, the grandson happily took the concubine to the prince's study in front.

The prince saw them coming in, and when he asked, he found out that she was the general's daughter.

It was the Crown Princess who brought it into the house.

The general and his son have caused great harm to the imperial court. It is not good for a general's daughter to become his son's concubine.

But when he found out, the deal was already done. Therefore, the prince treated Pingting very gently.

Pingting's skillful movements can be seen as someone who works regularly. The prince chatted with her for a while.

Jiang Pingting said that with her grandfather and father in office, sometimes she had to cook herself when there was not enough manpower.

He also talked about some of his experiences, and the prince and grandson listened with great interest.

After the glutinous rice balls were cooked, the grandson only allowed the prince to eat two. In the end, the prince fiddled with them for a while before giving him one more. If you can taste the smell of glutinous rice, the prince is already very beautiful!

Then, when Jiang Pingting saw Taisun, she shamelessly ate all the rest...

"Huh? Is there any jasmine flavor? I didn't eat it just now..."

……

Wen Yu and Yan Zhu held hands and looked around, extremely excited.

When there are many people, Qi Wu walks in front.

When there are few people, Qi Wu follows behind.

Looking at the two girls, they looked like two happy birds. He couldn't help but curl his lips slightly...

After passing an intersection, there were people flowing from all directions, and Laba took Yanzhu there.

Before Wen Yu had time, a dozen people came from the right and pushed towards her.

Qi Wu took a step forward, put one hand on her shoulder, and held her little hand with the other to pull her back...

Fragrant shoulders, jade hands, light and soft... He blushed for a moment.

It feels like a fish is flapping in my heart...

This taste made him uncomfortable and happy...

I thought to myself that this was the first time he held a girl's hand. Of course, except for Xiao Yuanyuan...

At this time, the one named Qin Lianyue...

Ever since they got engaged, they have been far apart. But at this moment, it disappeared without a trace.

As if he never recognized it.

……

In fact, not only was Qin Lianyue nowhere to be seen, she was also among the dozen or so people who just met Wen Yu!

Moreover, she has been looking for Qi Wu.

However, Qi Wu was wearing a mask and she didn't recognize him.

Qi Wu could have seen her, but at that time, he was obsessed with Wen Yu's beautiful shoulders and beautiful hands!

I guess if the sky falls, you will realize it later...

So, they missed perfectly.

I don’t know what will happen if I don’t miss it...

……

Yang Xiangdong was still more cautious and put on his hat. He held a folding fan in his hand to shield his face when someone was around.

He works very hard in school and in everything he does. So I have never been to such a lantern festival on weekdays. I didn’t know that there would be so many people!

Webster's colorful clothes were not exposed, so no one paid much attention to her.

As I was walking, suddenly someone next to me said: "If I give you half an hour, you won't be able to guess it!"

Yang Xiangdong was startled when he heard: This is his sister-in-law, Mrs. Li's son, and his wife's nephew!

"Who said that?! If you weren't around to cause trouble, I would have guessed it!" said another person.

Several people came from behind him and walked forward.

Yang Xiangdong was so frightened that he ducked into the nearby store in just two steps.

Webster didn't pay attention and was still walking forward slowly.

The group of teenagers passed by her and smelled a strong fragrance. One of the teenagers quietly looked at her and walked forward without stopping.

Yang Xiangdong peeked at a few people and saw that they were gone. He let out a little breath and hurriedly came out because he was afraid that Webster would be too worried.

As a result, there was a boy selling masks on the roadside...

what? !

This is great stuff!

"How to sell masks?"

The boy smiled sincerely: "Fifty taels of silver each."

Yang Xiangdong had lost his ability to think. He took out his banknotes and chose one with a hundred dollars, "I want this one with the flower pendant, and this one."

The boy was originally selling them for one tael of silver each.

Because of the high asking price, only two have been sold so far.

But he still adheres to the principle of whether to sell or not. Originally, it was just a matter of watching the lights and passing by...

This kid is very thief. I just saw this man dodging. Although I don’t know what he is hiding from, he must be...hehe...

So, I opened my mouth and offered a sky-high price, waiting for him to counter-offer!

As a result, Yang Xiangdong threw away the banknotes and took two of them.

Wei Xiangyu was just saying: "I've been looking all the way, and just now..." He turned around and said, Huh? No one left?

Startled, he stopped and saw Yang Xiangdong playing with something.

"doing what?"

"Ayu, look, isn't it interesting?! We both wear the same clothes, and each of us wears one, how fun it is!?"

"Isn't it dirty?" Wei Xiangyu was disgusted.

"It's not dirty, look! This seller is also clean and tidy. Put it on!"

Wei Xiangyu also found it interesting, so the two of them put it on.

Yang Xiangdong breathed a sigh of relief: God help me!

The guy selling masks was so excited that he almost cried. As soon as they left, he ran away.

This person is none other than Li Yuan.

He came out to watch the lanterns. Along with others, he took out the masks and lamps made by the girls and sold them.

Get rich, get rich!

Go back and tell dad and Master Qing, tell the girl!

How can they praise me!
