Chapter 166 Longevity Noodles Made by Myself

After kneading the dough, Lin Qingqian started to knead the noodles.

Longevity noodles are usually made of a long noodle, then boiled and fished out, put in eggs, sprinkle with chopped green onion and you're done.

Afraid that the noodles would break when they were cooked in the pot, Lin Qingqian made a lot of spare ones so that they would not be wasted. Apart from the bowl for Gu Changgeng, she could also make a bowl for herself, Chunxia, ​​and Gu Bo.

……

Gu Changgeng's study.

Uncle Gu went in with a pot of new tea, Gu Changgeng put down his books and asked, "Just now I heard the gate of the courtyard rang, but Qingqian came over?"

Uncle Gu smiled and said: "That's right, Miss San brought Miss Chunxia here."

"Qingqian is on the swing in the yard?"

When Lin Qingqian came to Liyuan, besides looking for Gu Changgeng directly, she also liked to sit on the swing to enjoy the shade.

"No, Miss San is in the small kitchen at the back now."

Gu Changgeng's handsome brows were slightly frowned, and he asked in puzzlement, "The small kitchen in the backyard? What is Qingqian doing there?"

The wrinkles on Uncle Gu's face became more obvious because of his smile, he said, "Master, have you forgotten what day it is today?"

"What day?"

"Master's birthday!"

Gu Changgeng's eyes drooped slightly. Ever since the accident in the General's Mansion, he only wanted to find out his enemy and avenge him. Every year on his birthday, Gu Bo cooked longevity noodles for him, and he only remembered it.

Uncle Gu continued: "Miss San asked about the young master's birthday a few days ago, and learned that today is the young master's birthday, and said that she wanted to cook a bowl of longevity noodles for the young master, and now she is preparing it in the small kitchen with Miss Chunxia. I just went over to take a look, and the third lady was sweating profusely, but she refused to ask others to help, saying that only by doing it herself can she reflect her heart."

Gu Changgeng pursed his thin lips, his hand holding the book tightened involuntarily, and his eyes were filled with emotion.

After a while, he put down his books and walked out of the study.

"Master, where are you going?"

"I'll go to the kitchen and have a look."

Gu Bo smiled and said nothing more.

……

Small kitchen in the back.

When Gu Changgeng reached the door, he heard Chun Xia's voice.

"Miss, the noodles are broken again, why don't you let the slaves come, otherwise you have to make the noodles again."

Lin Qingqian raised her arm and wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said firmly: "No! I have to do it myself. I don't believe this evil. According to my cooking skills, I can't cook a bowl of longevity noodles!"

Gu Changgeng stood at the door, Lin Qingqian, who was concentrating on cooking the noodles, never noticed that there was another person outside the door.

There were tiny beads of sweat on Lin Qingqian's forehead, her hair was wet with sweat, and her cheeks were flushed with heat, but despite this, her eyes were bright and she didn't look embarrassed at all.

After boiling the noodles for about half a cup of tea, Chun Xia urged: "Miss, it's time to scoop up the noodles, be careful, don't break them again,"

"Don't worry, I will be very careful this time!"

Lin Qingqian carefully scooped up the noodles and put them in a bowl. Seeing that the noodles were finally not divided into two sections, the corners of her mouth raised a nice curve.

"Okay! Finally cooked a bowl of longevity noodles!"

Chun Xia secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately the noodles did not break any more, if not, she would have to spend the whole night in the kitchen because she was afraid that the young lady would be stubborn.

"Miss, hurry up and sprinkle chopped green onion and other ingredients while it's hot, so that it can be delivered to Mr. Gu."

Lin Qingqian responded with a smile, "Okay." Holding the noodles and leaving from the stove, she stumbled over a tree branch under her feet, staggered, and some of the hot soup in the bowl spilled out, causing her to exclaim in surprise , the hand holding the noodles loosened.

"Ah! My noodles..."

In a blink of an eye, Gu Changgeng's figure flashed, he caught the bowl of noodles, and supported Lin Qingqian with one hand, his tone was anxious that he hadn't even noticed.

"How is it? Did it burn you?"

Seeing that the noodles were safe and sound, Lin Qingqian let out a long breath and said, "I'm fine, luckily brother Chang Geng caught the noodles..."

Gu Changgeng lowered his eyes, Lin Qingqian's fair skin on the back of his hand was slightly reddened by the heat.

His brows furrowed without a trace.

He put down the noodles, pulled Lin Qingqian to the water tank, took a ladle of water, and said, "Put it in clean water, although it's not too hot, soaking it in clean water won't hurt."

Lin Qingqian put her hand into the water ladle as she said, and the slightly tingling feeling slowly disappeared as the cool water soaked.

Lin Qingqian asked belatedly, "Brother Chang Geng, why did you come to the small kitchen?"

Gu Changgeng said without blushing, "I'm looking for Uncle Gu, it's almost time for dinner, I thought he would prepare the meal here."

"Are you looking for Uncle Gu? I just saw him in the yard."

"Ah."

Gu Changgeng glanced at the noodles, looked away, pretended not to know, and said, "What are you doing in the small kitchen?"

"This……"

Lin Qingqian wanted to make the longevity noodles and tell Gu Changgeng to give him a surprise, so she smiled and said, "No, it's nothing... I want to eat noodles, so I cooked a bowl of noodles, and I cooked them for Chang Geng Brother, you go back to the house and wait, I'm ready to bring it right away, and we can have dinner!"

"your hands……"

Lin Qingqian took out her hand, shook it in front of Gu Changgeng, and said with a bright smile, "Look, it's all right."

Gu Changgeng didn't expose Lin Qingqian's words, for example, she was hungry, why did she come to Liyuan's small kitchen to cook noodles?He nodded, "Okay, I'll go back to the study first."

After Gu Changgeng left, Lin Qingqian muttered, "Fortunately, I'm smart enough, otherwise half-finished noodles would be regarded as longevity noodles, how embarrassing."

As everyone knows, Gu Changgeng has not gone far, now that he has internal strength, his hearing is naturally several times better than that of ordinary people.

He stood outside the small kitchen with a doting smile on his lips.

Lin Qingqian put ingredients on the longevity noodles, and put the prepared minced meat on the noodles.

The ingredients made of minced meat are very fragrant, Chun Xia couldn't help swallowing, seeing Lin Qingqian put several spoonfuls into Gu Changgeng's bowl, and muttered in a low voice: "Miss is biased, put so much minced meat for Mr. Gu..."

Lin Qingqian didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a while, and coaxed: "Today is Brother Chang Geng's birthday, so birthday stars will naturally be treated better. On weekdays, I treat all of you equally, and I have no preference at all."

Chun Xia thought to herself: Miss, you usually prefer Mr. Gu, what's so good, you are always the first to think of Mr. Gu.

Put minced meat, poached eggs and green onions, and a bowl of fragrant longevity noodles is complete.

Lin Qingqian said to Chunxia: "There are still a few bowls of noodles left, you leave one bowl for Uncle Gu, you can take it back to Liuyuan to eat with Qiudong, and I will go back by myself later."

"Yes, servant girl thanked miss."

Lin Qingqian came to the study with two bowls of noodles, put them down in front of the round table, and said, "Brother Chang Geng, come quickly, dinner is ready."

"Well, here we come."

Gu Changgeng sat down, Lin Qingqian handed him the chopsticks with bright eyes, and said, "Brother Changgeng, today is your birthday, I couldn't think of what to give you as a birthday present, so I cooked a bowl of longevity noodles myself. Happy birthday to you!"
