Chapter 45 Your concubine is pregnant

Lv Pangxiao looked at the things in the basket with satisfaction and said, "I'm sorry to bother my father-in-law. At first glance, it took some thought and the selection was very fresh."

Xuanzi smiled a little and replied, "Aunt Lu wants something, how dare I neglect it."

Yao Yulu also said, "Thank you, Grandpa Xuan."

"The show girl is polite. I don't know what the show girl wants to do?"

"Golden plum orange, eight precious plum, osmanthus and Yingzi."

"It's all very thoughtful things. Will the actress do it?"

"I know something, but I still have to explore it."

"I can make some preserves, so I'd better tell you some essentials."

When Yao Yulu heard it, it was a good thing. Although M Mother had taught it, it was not fine. She was still worried about how to do it when she went back. Now the internal supervisor in front of her was willing to tell her that it would save a lot of trouble.

"Of course. I don't know if it will bother my father-in-law."

Lv Pangxiao interrupted, "Then your father-in-law should help more."

Xuanzi smiled shyly and said, "Don't be so polite. It's not enough to see these three things. Golden plum oranges also need golden dates to be simmered. Finally, the outer layer is accompanied by a little salt powder. The eight treasures of Bazhenmei are very simple, but the plums must be removed, so that they can add more flavor, and cloves are added. Yingzi, mashed the cloves and marinate them with some sugar osmanthus..."

Xuanzi chattered for a long time, and every detail was said very carefully. Yao Yulu also listened attentively. After saying that, Yao Yulu said, "Thank you so much, father-in-law. If it weren't for your guidance, I wouldn't know how to do many of these small things."

"It's okay. Of course I can help the people brought by Aunt Lu." Xiao Xuanzi still replied kindly.

Yao Yulu smiled lightly. When Xiao Xuanzi brought some accessories, he followed Lv Panxiao out of the door.

"This father-in-law is really warm-hearted." On the way back, Yao Yulu chatted with Lv Yuxiao.

"He is my fellow countryman, and he is very nice." Lv Pangxiao said.

"I have to start doing it in a hurry when I go back. I don't know if I can do it well in the future."

"It should be about the same. Be careful when you do it. In case something goes wrong, it's not good."

"Yulu understands that it must be done by herself to be assured."

When she arrived at the Taoyuan Hall, Yao Yulu went back to her bedroom first. Ji Shuidong was pounding the clove petals into flower mud and taking out the previous sugar osmanthus flowers. Seeing Yao Yulu coming back, she asked, "Sister, are the ingredients ready?"

Yao Yulu said, "Aunt Lv accompanied me. An internal supervisor in the imperial dining room and Aunt Lv happened to be from the same hometown. They not only brought me all the ingredients and accessories, but also gave me some attention."

"That's a good thing. I still don't know how to make it delicious. I have nothing to do. Let's help my sister do it together." Ji Shuidong said happily.

"I'm sorry to bother my sister again." Yao Yulu said guiltily.

The two of them took advantage of the dark and got busy and marinated it tomorrow morning, which was convenient for drying. The time passed quickly unconsciously, and it was already midnight in a short time.

A big event has happened in the palace these days, which is a great joy for some people, but it is as annoying as eating flies for some people.

The noble concubine in the palace had always been unfavored, had a low family background, and was unknown in the palace. That day, the emperor casually turned over her brand. Unexpectedly, a few days ago, the imperial doctor conducted a routine examination and found that she had been pregnant for two months. The woman in the harem was pregnant and turned over. The opportunity, the status of the noble concubine is also cared for because of pregnancy. The emperor has few children, and there are only two grids under his knees. This time, the noble concubine is pregnant, and the emperor agreed to make her a concubine after giving birth to a child, and he usually spends a lot more time to go to the noble concubine.

This originally unknown concubine suddenly fell into the status of stars and praised the moon, which attracted the dissatisfaction of many concubines. However, due to the careful care of the empress dowager, the queen also treated her generously and dared not make any movement.

When Xiao Shufei heard that the noble concubine was pregnant, the emperor had not come to her for a few days, and she was even more angry that she fell half of the room and scolded fiercely: "These bitches want to run to my head one by one. It's simply delusional."

When the maid beside her saw that Xiao Shufei was so angry, no one dared to interrupt. These days, Xiao Shufei watched the beautiful girls of this year being praised by the emperor one by one and spent the night with the emperor. At this moment, a concubine in the district were pregnant. Xiao Shufei, who had always been arrogant, was spoiled, and the resentment in her heart arose spontaneously.

On the second day, Yao Yulu got up early and dried the preserves soaked yesterday in the sun. She threw a bamboo mat in the small yard. The soaked golden oranges, plus seeds, and plums were neatly illuminated by the sun. It was estimated that it would be almost done in the afternoon.

Sister, I overslept." Ji Shuidong came out of the room sleepily and saw that Yao Yulu had spread the preserves in the sun, which was a little embarrassed.

"You were also tired yesterday. It's better to sleep more." Yao Yulu's cheeks sparkled with the sun and smiled.

At this time, Song Jinzhi also pushed the door and came out. Since Wang Shuzhen left, she has been living alone in the west wing, occasionally talking to Yao Yulu and others.

"Yao Xiunu, Ji Xiunu, what are you busy with?" Song Jinzhi has always been light and light, and there is no emotion in it. He looks indifferent and clean.

"I'm preparing for tomorrow's gift. I don't know what Song Xiunu is preparing?" Yao Yulu replied.

"It's just a simple handkerchief. The queen is used to good things, and we just give some intentions." Song Jinzhi said.

"That's true."

Although the two are both celebrities among the show girls, they don't see any domineering in their words. They are more like little sisters who have not met for a long time. Yao Yulu always keeps some distance from Song Jinzhi, but she wants to get close to this girl from time to time.

"If these plums are made into finished products, they are also very delicate gifts." Song Jinzhi came forward, looked carefully at the preserves spread on the bamboo mat, and said.

"I'm also so unpredictable. I don't know what kind of handkerchief Song Xiunu embroidered?" Yao Yulu asked.

Song Jinzhi smiled, walked into the west second room and took out an unembroidered silk handkerchief with meticulous peony patterns embroidered on it.

Yao Yulu took it over and looked at it carefully. This handkerchief was also a waste of thought. It was very beautiful. Ji Shuidong beside him also hurried up. Such an embroidery worker was better than her. She interrupted, "I didn't expect Song Xiunu's red actress to do so well. Although this peony is unfinished, there are already a lot. The beauty."

"Nothing, just more effort." Song Jinzhi replied.

The three of them chatted, and it was already noon.

At this time, in the queen's palace, Xiao Shufei, Jinfei, Yufei, noble concubine, Hua Guiren, etc. are discussing some details of tomorrow with the queen.

"Sir sisters, this is the best after the rain Longjing that the emperor gave to me a few days ago. It tastes fresh and fragrant in the mouth. It's better to taste it first."

There is a delicate glazed blue and white porcelain cup on the table beside several concubines. In the middle of the cup lid is a raised ruby. The things in the queen's palace must be some rare treasures. Xiao Shufei disdainly put the cup cover aside, picked it up and tasted it, but said vaguely, "It's hot. Dead."

However, the Jade Concubine gently brushed the cup lid and brushed the tea, slightly and said, "The dragon well is nothing more than this after the rain. It's really much worse than the big red robe the emperor gave to his concubine last time."

And Jinfei took a sip intoxicatedly and couldn't help admiring: "It's really full of fragrance."

Xiao Shufei glanced at Jinfei and seemed to be very disappointed with this usual follower. Although Jinfei often surrounded Xiao Shufei, the queen was here, and she did not dare to neglect her at all.

The noble concubine has always been quiet in the palace, tasting tea silently, and saying nothing more.
