Jade color and fragrance

Chapter 77
When Yan Yu arrived at the gate of Prince Gong's Mansion, the old acquaintance, Nanny Zhu, had been waiting for a long time.

When she came here before, Nanny Zhu was very warm and respectful to her, but this time, she somehow saw the kind of respect for her master from Nanny Zhu's eyes.

Nanny Zhu personally helped her into the sedan chair, and waited by her side, chatting and laughing with her, making her feel at home and happy.

When we arrived at the main hall, the old concubine and His Highness were sitting together talking.Not knowing what to say, the old concubine was amused by His Highness and smiled all over her face.

Seeing that Xuanyue was also at home, Yan Yu was surprised, and quickly walked a few steps to the empress to salute.

"Your Majesty, Yu'er greets you, Your Highness Wanan."

The old concubine got up with a happy face and helped her up herself.He said happily: "Yu'er, I haven't seen you for some time. The little girl looks really fresh. I feel happy when I see you."

Looking at the food boxes carried by the people behind her, she smiled again: "I heard that your pastry shop has reopened today. Is this the pastry in the shop?"

Yan Yu helped the empress to sit down, and said, "Yes, empress, the cakes are from the century-old Liji Bakery in the west of the city. We also invited a master from Yangzhou, and now we have more choices."

She casually opened a food box and presented it to the old concubine.

The scent of the steaming pastry wafted out. The old princess looked at it, picked up a piece of dark green pastry, and said, "Yu'er, look quickly. This is sesame mung bean cake. Bengong once ate it when he was young, and he never forgot it in his heart. But I just never found it again. Bengong taste it, is it still the same taste as back then?"

Looking at the interaction between his mother and concubine Yan Yu, Xuan Yue felt relieved in his heart, and couldn't help feeling: He had to abduct Yan Yu to his mansion as soon as possible, and in the future, he would no longer have to toss and turn for this little girl.With such a favorite daughter-in-law, the mother and concubine no longer worry about it.

He also leaned forward, picked up a piece of cake, and said, "Concubine Mu, I didn't hear what you said, or I would search all over the capital and find it for you."

He put it in his mouth and took a bite. It tasted glutinous, moderately sweet, and fragrant. He could also smell the fragrance of mung beans and sesame seeds.

He clapped his hands after eating, picked up another piece to eat, and said as he ate, "Well, as expected of a century-old restaurant, this taste is really good. Mufei, is this the taste you remember?"

Before the concubine mother could answer, he looked again and was startled, the old concubine had tears in her eyes.

He hurriedly bowed and asked, "Mother Concubine, what's wrong with you?"

The old concubine laughed through her tears and said, "Yue'er, this is the taste that my concubine had eaten when she was young. At that time, your grandmother was still there, and once I was ill, she dragged her sick body and went to find this cake and brought it back to you. Me. Later, when I recovered, your grandmother went away, and the taste of this pastry has always remained in the heart of the concubine mother, and has never dissipated."

"It turns out that you are thinking of your grandmother. You miss her. In the past few days, my son will take you to pay respects to her old man, okay?"

"Okay. I miss my mother in the future, but I have an idea."

The empress calmed down, took Yan Yu's hand and said: "I heard from Yue'er that this shop is a century-old shop, and it was already in danger before you took over. Although you are also doing business, you can save this shop. But it is a great merit. There must be many people like me who think about the taste of this century-old shop, and I don’t know how many people have to thank you in their hearts."

Several people chatted and laughed, and Madam Zhu came in and invited them to have a meal.

Yan Yu helped the old concubine and walked over together, Xuanyue originally also supported the old concubine.After a while, he moved to Yan Yu's side again, and joked, "I heard that you came here on purpose for dinner?"

Yan Yu's face was flushed when she heard this, the old concubine couldn't bear to see her embarrassed.Patting Xuanyue's arm lightly, he said: "Yu'er came here for dinner because she is close to me. You are ignorant, don't make fun of Yu'er."

The three of them ate around a small round table, which made them appear closer.The table was covered with dishes, such as braised lion head, glutinous rice balls, and fish balls, all placed in front of Yan Yu.

Now, everyone in Prince Gong's mansion knows that Yan Yu likes to eat round things.Without the old concubine's instructions, the kitchen made these dishes, and the servants of Bu Cai automatically put them in front of Yan Yu.

Yan Yu's face turned even redder.

Xuan Yue looked at his little daughter-in-law, his heart was full of satisfaction.Such a scene of a family of three sitting together for a meal has also happened in a dream.Although it is not justified now, he feels that it is just around the corner.

During the banquet, the old concubine and Xuan Yue continued to pick up dishes for Yan Yu, and they chose what she liked.

Yan Yu ate a piece of fish ball that Xuan Yue had caught, and her small face instantly swelled up, like a little hamster.

Xuan Yue liked the way she was eating deliciously, so he fell in love with serving her dishes.After pinching it several times, the little girl stared at him again, so he had no choice but to put away the chopsticks.

The old concubine ate less and stopped chopsticks a long time ago.Seeing the interaction between the two of them, he covered his lips with a veil and snickered, but he didn't dare to make it too obvious. The little girl was thin-skinned, afraid that she would be ashamed, so she dared not come to her house for dinner in the future.

After eating, the few people walked along the winding corridors of the mansion to digest food.

"Yu'er, I heard that you have done another great deed recently?"

Yan Yu blushed, a little blaming Mr. Zhou.She looked at the old concubine piously: "Madam, I also want to do my best. But because of the large quantity of cotton clothes and the rush of time, I had to hire many women to rush to work, so it spread. Nothing happened yet. Well done, Yu'er is really ashamed."

"You are too cautious. Now that you are a female householder and have a better reputation among the people, it is always beneficial and harmless to you."

The old concubine did not say clearly that even though she would be her daughter-in-law in the future, she would only cherish her.But if those reputations that were ruined by the Yan family in the past can be restored, Yan Yu's actions will always be much more convenient.

When it was time for the old concubine to take a lunch break, she said to Yan Yu: "I am tired, Yu'er, if you have nothing to do today, you can stay longer at the palace. After my lunch break, I want to talk to you again Woolen cloth."

"Okay, then Yu'er will take you there."

"No need, I have Mo Niang. You youngsters can do what they want."

The old concubine is helping Xuanyue, her son's eyes are almost glued to the little girl, she has to help, so that her son can end his bachelor life as soon as possible.

The two sent off the old concubine respectfully, and after the old concubine walked away, the two looked at each other in tacit understanding, Xuan Yue looked at the little girl dotingly, but Yan Yu stared at her.

Xuan Yue can't count, when did this little coward start to stare at him often.

But seeing her like that, he felt joy in his heart.If she was the same as before, she would treat him like a scourge.How can he get close to her?
"Yu'er, come here, I'll show you something."

He glanced back at Xiao Shunzi, and Xiao Shunzi was a smart person, so he immediately understood.Stopping Lanyue, the two only followed from a distance.
