Princess, she is playing again

Chapter 44 Aunt Bai's true performance
The melodious and detailed sound of the flute was ordinary music to the ears of the people in the Zhongyonghou Mansion, but it was a sacred call to the caged beasts in the backyard of the kitchen.

The fat man who helped the cook just opened the iron cage containing the roe deer, when the roe slammed into him like a madman, the fat man was knocked unconscious by surprise, and fell to the ground, so he didn't see the roe deer coming out of the cage. come out.

Then there are badgers, musk deer, muntjacs, deer, rabbits, pigeons...

Those who came out first waited in the yard, and those who moved slowly behind accelerated. All the animals seemed to have been ordered and negotiated. After all the moving animals in the kitchen were gathered, the sound of the flute suddenly Raised high, like some kind of trumpet, rolled out of the yard like a strong wind.

When the fat man woke up for a while, the yard where the poultry and animals were kept was empty.

"Come on, come on, the animals are gone..." The fat man was a little scared by the scene in front of him, but thinking that Fengyueyuan was still waiting for the food to be served, he dared not delay and shouted Then began to howl.

The matter was soon reported to Songhe Courtyard. Xu Renyu was not in the mansion. Xu Zhou asked with a sullen face, "What's going on? Why did the animals in the kitchen suddenly disappear? But the cook left without authorization?"

Butler Xu hurriedly cupped his hands and stepped forward, "This matter is even weird. I heard from the cooks that the roe was originally locked in a cage. When he went to open the cage, he went crazy and knocked him to the ground. Wait for him to wake up." When we came, there wasn’t a single animal in the cage.”

"Nonsense, what's so weird about it, it must be because the cooks are afraid of taking responsibility, so they will lie."

Xu Zhou slapped the table heavily, dissatisfied with Steward Xu's blame-shifting words.

Steward Xu lowered his head and said nothing. In fact, he also found this thing unbelievable, but the people in the kitchen didn't seem to be cheating. The most important thing was that cheating didn't do them any good.

"Hurry up and take someone to search. It is impossible for so many animals to disappear completely. They must be found as soon as possible."

It was too late to go out of the house to re-purchase, so Steward Xu could only find a way to find those poultry and beasts first.

Steward Xu nodded, then hurriedly walked towards the gate.

Just as he crossed the threshold, he saw the fat man who was helping the cook rushing over.

"Butler Xu is not well. The Fengyue courtyard came to remind me, saying that the waiter is a little impatient. If we don't serve the food again, the waiter will be furious."

"Take me to the kitchen first," Steward Xu hurried to the kitchen, seeing only the leftover vegetable leaves in the kitchen, he could only look sad.

Before he had time to sigh, Fengyue Yuan sent someone to urge him again. In the end, the banquet in Fengyue Yuan did not meet the identity of the Zhongyonghou Mansion, and those friends who called Xu Chengke as brothers and sisters left with embarrassment.

Xu Chengke was furious in Fengyueyuan, while Aunt Bai was aggrieved, "Master Hou, calm down, I have already ordered you to go down. Those old people in the kitchen were brought by my wife's natal family, so it's normal for me to not be able to control you." of."

Aunt Bai is smart, so she would naturally feel guilty after doing something, but she is only in charge of the house, and the big kitchen has always been a place rich in oil and water. When Lin Long was in charge of the house, no one was allowed to intervene.

Although I don't know why the kitchen messed up tonight, it's always right to blame Lin Long.

"You mean Mrs. Lin did it?"

Xu Chengke had a dark face and looked at Aunt Bai suspiciously. He always wanted to save face. In the past, many people in the court fawned on him in the name of the prince's future father-in-law.

Now that the eldest daughter's marriage has changed, there are many speculations in the court. Today, these colleagues came to visit the sick, but they were actually trying to test it out. Not bad either.

That's why I repeatedly told him that today's dinner must be in line with his status as a loyal and brave man, but who knew that all the dishes served were all vegetarian dishes.

This is completely slapping him in the face, letting his colleagues see his jokes, how can he not be angry.

"I don't dare to speculate on my own, but I can learn from the heavens and the earth in my heart to Lord Hou, so I don't want Lord Hou to lose his identity."

Aunt Bai's eyes were red, and her seductive eyes kept falling on Xu Chengke.Xu Chengke, who had no brains and soft ears, believed her words even in his heart.

Not only that, but housekeeper Xu has led people to search Fengyueyuan here.

"Forgive me, Lord Hou. The poultry and beasts in the kitchen have disappeared collectively. The old lady has an order to let the old slave lead someone to find them."

"What? There's such a thing?" Xu Chengke's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe it, but Aunt Bai suddenly covered her mouth and said, "Sister, how could she do this?"

"What does Aunt Bai know?" Steward Xu looked at Aunt Bai sharply, obviously interested in what she said.

Aunt Bai groaned, and then looked at Xu Chengke hesitantly, as if she was a little undecided whether to say it or not.

"Butler Xu might as well go to Linglong Courtyard first," Xu Chengke said with a sullen face, obviously Aunt Bai's words had already had a lot of influence on him.

Steward Xu thought for a while, and then led the people to Linglong Courtyard.

On the wall of Fengyueyuan, Xu Zhaoning was holding a handful of melon seeds and knocking happily.Beside her, Mingyue still had a wooden face, but if you look closely, you will find that there is still a bit of confusion in her eyes at the moment.

Seeing that Steward Xu had been leading people out of Fengyueyuan for a long time, she finally asked:
"Miss, why are you so sure that Aunt Bai will bite Lin Long without knowing it?"

"For the women in the backyard, as long as they have the opportunity to suppress their deadly enemy, they must not give up. Aunt Bai is not stupid. She has been fighting against Lin Long for so many years. Now that she has gained power, she will never let her go again. Lin Long made a comeback."

Xu Zhaoning smiled lightly. Aunt Bai was acting in her true colors, and she had already taken a fancy to the potential in Aunt Bai's body. Today's performance will definitely be a success.

Linglong courtyard
Lin Long looked at the clear soup and choy sum brought by Lily, her face darkened, "What's going on?"

"Ma'am, the people in the big kitchen said that there is a shortage of supplies in the big kitchen today, so please make it easy, madam."

"What a joke, how can my majestic and loyal Madam wait for you!" Lin Long became even more angry, "Go and tell Mrs. Wang, and ask her to bring you a table of delicious dishes as soon as possible. It must be my favorite food."

Lily said yes, put a tray and was ready to go to the big kitchen to explain, but just took two steps, she was stopped by Nanny Lin, "Ma'am, I heard that the Fengyueyuan is hosting a banquet for the waiting master's colleagues today, so I want to come to the big kitchen?" Let’s focus on Fengyueyuan first, madam, why not let Lily cook some of your favorite food in the small kitchen.”

Mother Lin's words meant that Lin Long should not confront Xu Chengke head-on, and avoid the limelight first. The ingredients in the small kitchens of the left and right Linglong Courtyard were all fresh from the big kitchen.

Although Lin Long was dissatisfied, she did not refuse, and Lily hurried to the small kitchen to prepare.

When Butler Xu led the people to Linglong Courtyard, the dishes in Linglong Courtyard were fragrant, and they all smelled like meat...
