Seeing Shuang Jiang's intentions, Gu Qingyou patiently persuaded: "Although studying depends on talent, a good teacher is also part of success. Although Shangjing is not perfect, after all, when talents gather, he will not only have a good teacher, but also study together. Your classmates are not much better, do you really not think about it?"

Shuang Jiang naturally knew that going to Beijing was good, not to mention anything else, if his younger brother was lucky enough to become classmates with a few young masters from powerful families, even if he failed the imperial examination in the future, there might be many ways out in the future.

But she has her own considerations.

Although her monthly income is quite generous compared to ordinary girls, she simply cannot afford to buy a house to house her family in Shangjing, where every inch of land is expensive.

Gu Qingyou obviously also thought of this, and said: "If you are worried about their residence, it's easy to say, isn't there still a few empty rooms in our new handicraft workshop? Add some furniture to it, enough to accommodate a few people, I just hope you don’t despise the humbleness.”

"how could be?"

Shuang Jiang hastily waved his hands and said, "You have never seen the house in my hometown. The hole in the roof is bigger than the mouth of a bowl. You can directly look at the stars and the moon while lying on the bed at night!"

But the problem is that her parents are not in good health and can't do much work at all, and the things in Shangjing are expensive, and the money she earns sent back to her hometown is enough to cover all expenses, but it may not be so in Shangjing.

Besides, the Shushushuxiu in Shangjing must be several times more expensive than in his hometown, I'm afraid she can't afford it at all.

She knew that as a master, as long as she frankly expressed these concerns, she would definitely help herself solve them one by one, but the more she was like this, the less she wanted to burden the master.

Seeing her lowering her head, Gu Qingyou vaguely guessed what she was thinking, and didn't want to put too much psychological pressure on her, so she brought the topic to duck eggs again: "Let the cook cook a few more duck eggs, if someone If this is the case, cook all of them, and we are going to make zongzi."

Shuang Jiang opened his eyes wide: "Use the yolk of salted duck eggs to make zongzi?"

Aren't zongzi sweet?Can it be delicious with salted duck egg yolk?
Gu Qingyou said: "Look, it's strange to say about taste. People in the north like to eat salty, but only the zongzi are sweet, while the south like to eat sweet, even tofu brains have to put sugar, but the zongzi is so delicious. I like salty ones."

Shuang Jiang had never been to the South, so he didn't know much about the people and customs there. After hearing this, he questioned: "Then you made salty rice dumplings now, what if everyone doesn't like it?"

"Hundreds of people have their own tastes. If someone doesn't like it, then someone must like it. Not to mention too much, as long as one tenth of the people in Shangjing like it, then our business will be profitable."

Moreover, as the economic hub of the Jin Dynasty, Shangjing has brought together a large number of out-of-town people from all over the world.
Gu Qingyou picked up a trace of quicksand yellow with chopsticks and fed it to her: "How is it? Is it fragrant?"

"Oh, it smells so good~"

Shuang Jiang couldn't bear to open his mouth at all, for fear that all the scent would escape.

"It's good as long as it's delicious. Let's add sea duck eggs to dinner at night, and peel the egg yolk together after dinner."

"okay!"

Shuang Jiang went out happily, and came back in a short while, holding the door frame to reveal her small head: "But Miss, if you peel the egg yolk, wouldn't the oil all flow?"

"No, let the cook cook the duck eggs, put them in water to cool them down, then put them in the ice cellar, and peel them after the oil inside has solidified." …

"Miss is still smart, servant girl will go now!"

There are many kinds of zongzi fillings. Gu Qingyou decided to make the egg yolk zongzi as the main product, and then make some other flavors to sell. If they couldn't sell it, they gave it to the workers to try it out. In short, there would be no waste.

Gu Qingyou had already stocked up glutinous rice, rice dumpling leaves and other materials that could be stored before the price increase for the Dragon Boat Festival. When the Dragon Boat Festival arrived, the tea shop reopened, and all kinds of rice dumplings were also on the market.

"Miss, why hasn't the Princess come here recently?"

Shuang Jiang came in with a plate of freshly boiled salted duck eggs, which Gu Qingyou was going to send to the Duke's Mansion.

Gu Qingyou got up to loosen his bones, saw that the sun outside was already westward, so it should not be so hot, so he simply washed up, asked Shuang Jiang to put the duck eggs into the bag, and said: "The Princess is going to get married soon, there must be many Things are busy, I will visit the palace tomorrow to see if there is anything I can do to help."

Shuang Jiang said: "I think the princess doesn't seem to care about this marriage. It would be nice to be able to sit in a sedan chair on the day of the wedding. What do you expect her to do?"

Gu Qingyou glanced at her: "Don't talk nonsense, it will be troublesome if people listen to it."

It's just that her heart sank with these words. Others don't know Chang Le's thoughts, but she can see clearly. Although she doesn't know why she chose Ye Lan in the end, there must be something she has to hide.

However, Song Hengye...

Gu Qingyou sighed, then looked at the package on the table, and suddenly didn't want to go out.

Seeing that she had replaced the embroidered shoes again, and her hair was untied, Shuang Jiang asked, "Miss, aren't you going to the Duke's Mansion?"

"I don't want to go, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

"Oh~"

Shuang's descent was unknown, so seeing her looking sleepy, she was a little worried: "Miss, what's wrong? Do you want to ask a doctor to take a look?"

"No, I'm just a little tired. I'll go to bed first. Don't call me for dinner."

After getting along for a long time, Shuang Jiang understands her temper and knows that it is useless to talk too much, so she picks up the duck egg on the table and backs away gently.

Gu Qingyou lay face down, and when she heard the door closing, she sighed faintly.

Changle had told her more than once before that when she got married, she would definitely let herself be a bridesmaid.

The bridesmaid here has a nice title called "All-American", which means perfection. At that time, Gu Qingyou also teased that she was really not beautiful when she was a divorced person, so she asked her to find another noble girl who had not left the court.

At that time, Chang Le waved his hands nonchalantly, Dao didn't care about those vain remarks, but seeing the wedding day approaching, Chang Le never mentioned this matter to her again.

It would be a lie to say that she is not disappointed, Gu Qingyou has already regarded Changle as a friend from the bottom of her heart, and she is even more afraid that Changle will alienate herself because of Song Hengye.

But the fate between people cannot be forced, and Song Hengye's intentions are almost undisguised. If Changle really has a grudge, she really doesn't know what to do except feel sorry.

The room gradually darkened, and the noise from the street gradually diminished, and finally calmed down.

Shuang Jiang didn't dare to disturb her, so she just warmed the food on the stove, while she moved an embroidered pier and sat at the door, doing handicrafts while paying attention to the movement in the house.

Gu Qingyou slept extremely restlessly all night.

I had nightmares all night, and when I got up, my whole body was sore, as if I had been run over by a wheel, and I really didn't want to move.

But there were still a lot of things waiting for her outside, so Gu Qingyou could only force herself, washed her face and put a layer of powder on her face for the first time, trying to cover her panda eyes.
