Black-bellied Xianggong: Cute wife is not easy to mess with

Chapter 220 Emergency Situation ([-])

Although the door of Cyclamen for the female relatives to enter and exit is small, it is only after stepping in that one realizes that the inside is a very spacious yard with grape trellises in the courtyard. Purple grapes are amazing.

The winter sunlight, through the grape trellises, sprinkled on the ladies in twos and threes under the trellises, making the delicate makeup on their faces even more radiant.

Around the courtyard, there are private rooms in a circle, and there is a small wooden sign hanging on the door. The sign says Guiyuan, Bamboo Forest, etc., which should be the name of the private room.The waiter who greeted her here was also a woman, wearing a uniform white short jacket and a water-colored narrow skirt, looking clean and neat.

"Have the two ladies ever reserved a box?" The eyes of the female runner who came to greet Mu Qingwan and Kang Jingru were obviously surprised. It seems that in the capital, unmarried women, at least unmarried women in the upper class, don't Easy to step out of the house.

Mu Qingwan didn't answer right away, but took a look at the woman in Prince Wei's mansion, and the woman immediately stepped forward, and said to the girl, "We're coming from Prince Wei's mansion." As she spoke, she took out something that looked like a post, and handed it to the woman. Show it to the waitress.

The maid took a look at the post, and the smile on her face widened, and she warmly led Mu Qingwan and Kang Jingru into the most secluded box, and said with a smile: "So they are distinguished guests of Prince Wei's mansion. Look at the look in the eyes of the servants, but they don't realize that they should be beaten. The grandmas of Prince Wei's mansion like to be quiet, so our box is always reserved for the distinguished guests of Prince Wei's mansion. Please come in and have a look, two ladies. If you are not satisfied, we will change again..."

Her voice was clear and sweet, and the smile on her face seemed so sincere, so even though she talked a lot, she never got bored no matter what.In the sound of her long introduction, Mu Qingwan took Kang Jingru's arm and stepped into the box.

The size of this box is much larger than she imagined, and it is divided into two rooms, inside and outside. There is a large round table in the middle of the outside room, and huge vases of simple and elegant colors are placed on the four corners; through the brocade curtain of the same color as the vase, Entering the inner room, there are two couches with all kinds of pillows and bedding, which is a place for the guests to rest.

"It's really thoughtful." Kang Jingru whispered in Mu Qingwan's ear.

Mu Qingwan curled her lips into a smile, and said to the mother-in-law of Prince Wei's residence: "That's right here."

The mother-in-law of Prince Wei's Mansion nodded to the female waiter, and the female waiter went to fetch the beautifully printed menu and presented it to Mu Qingwan and Kang Jingru.

The peacocks are blooming, the flowers are blooming in wealth, and the brows are beaming... Who came up with the name of the dim sum?Just looking at the literal meaning, who knows what it is?Mu Qingwan suddenly hated those arty people, and really wanted to throw this menu on the ground.

On the other hand, Kang Jingru was in high spirits. From the beginning to the end, she ordered a few snacks with nice names, saving Mu Qingwan's trouble.

When the dim sum came up and saw the real thing, Mu Qingwan still couldn't name it, Kang Jingru excitedly whispered to her ear again, and said, "Sister Qingwan, the dim sum in the capital is really different from the one in Yangxing County!"

It is indeed very different. The dim sum in Yangxing County is often soupy, while the dim sum in the capital, at least on the table in front of you, are all dry pasta, steamed, fried or baked, and small and exquisite, basically It belongs to one that can be eaten one bite at a time. Perhaps it is for those noble ladies who can maintain an elegant posture while eating snacks?
Just as she was thinking about it, the woman from Prince Wei's Mansion came up, pointed to a plate of snacks in front of her and said with a smile: "Girls, don't blame, this cyclamen is just a trick. In fact, the peacock's tail is just A large circle of sweet-scented osmanthus rolls, clear oil and water, knead the dough, rub the crisps, wrap the crisps, add the agent, wrap the rose fillings, roll them into thin slices, fold them toward the middle, and then press a groove in the middle, and print them The seven-star fancy style, baked on the fire... and this flower blossoms rich and noble, which is actually the changed shape of the three fresh lotus flower crisps. They changed the lotus shape into a peony shape, and then changed the name to Huakai Fugui... "

The woman started to talk about dim sum, eloquently, and in a blink of an eye, all the dim sum with "elegant" names were brought into the mortal world, turning them into easy-to-understand and down-to-earth things.Mu Qingwan was overjoyed, and asked with a smile: "I don't know what to call my mother? But you have been a cook? You are more proficient than ordinary cooks!"

The old woman laughed and said: "My servant's surname is Ma, the third girl really guessed it right, I used to be in charge of the kitchen, and I can make dim sum, which is no less than the cook of Cyclamen!"

So confident, dare to compare with Yu Chu?That being the case, why didn't you do anything in the kitchen?Mu Qingwan glanced at Mama Ma in surprise, but because she was not very familiar with her, she didn't dare to ask this question rashly—it must be uncomfortable to be reduced from a cook in the kitchen to a woman who follows the car. The reason for the pleasure, if asked out, it would be bad to embarrass Mama Ma.

But Kang Jingru was obviously not as careful as she was. After eating a piece of peony cake in her hand, she said to Ma Mama: "Ma Mama, since you are so skilled, why don't you make dim sum in the kitchen?"

Mother Ma's expression froze, and the smile on her face became forced: "This servant is old and her eyesight is not good, so she came to another courtyard."

Eyes are not working?I didn't see it, and besides her age, she is not very old...Kang Jingru looked at Mama Mama suspiciously, Mu Qingwan quickly put a big sweet-scented osmanthus roll into her bowl, and said, "Try it quickly, go back and call Laiwang's daughter-in-law also followed suit."

Kang Jingru was distracted, so she let Mama Ma go.

Mu Qingwan turned her head and smiled apologetically at Ma Mama, who returned her grateful smile.

Just as she was eating happily, a maid from Prince Wei's Mansion suddenly came in, followed by a small mirror, Mu Qingwan's heart skipped a beat, and she put down her chopsticks.At this time, the little mirror came, and it must be something bad. Kang Jingru looked at the unfinished snacks on the table, and thought of the street where she hadn't started shopping, she was about to pout.

The servant girl walked into the box and said to Mu Qingwan: "Third Miss, Miss Li sent the servant girl in front of her to say that she has something to say to Third Miss."

"Sister Yueniang has something to do with me?" The mother-in-law and maids of Prince Wei's Mansion are all here, even if there are whispers, Mu Qingwan can't listen quietly, so she had to bite the bullet and ask in public.

Little Mirror didn't hesitate, and said directly: "Miss Li is asking Third Miss to go back."

go back?What happened?Mu Qingwan really wanted to ask more carefully, but she didn't look in the small mirror as if she had anything to say, so she stopped talking, stood up, and said to Ma Mama: "I wonder if I can ask Mama to put some snacks, I'll take it back to Sister Yueniang."
