Mrs. Tai is really rich

After all, Haishi's plan has not been noticed by people except her cronies. People only know that she has not forced Xie Yi to stay in the room and learn embroidery these days. Lots of laughter.

Among them, the most important one is Gu Ruosu's Hefengtang.

Although, Xie Yihua is not a child who likes to run around every day and the master of Fengtang like Xie Yihua, but helplessly, this time Xie Haoan is taking her, wherever Xie Haoan goes, she will go, plus this The two of them will have something to do, the Hefengtang these days can be described as extremely lively.

And because of this, by mistake, he followed Haishi's wish and indirectly eased the father-son relationship between Xie Ruqing and Xie Haowen, which made Haishi more and more valued by Xie Haowen. In the end, Xie Haowen unexpectedly It was also agreed that Xie Changju would go back to Beijing without waiting for the results as soon as the imperial examination was over. Of course, this is all for later.

Right now, the most important thing is to arrange travel.

As Xie Ruqing promised to Gu Ruosu, Xie Ruqing went to the gate of Prince Yin's mansion in person the next day, happened to meet Prince Yin and Concubine Yin, and told the couple about his intention of coming, King Yin heard this, Naturally very happy.

He originally entered Xie's family when he was young, dressed and slept in Xie's house, read and wrote, and had a very close relationship, but since his father, the first emperor ascended the throne of emperor, he was taken back to the palace, Became a prince, then married, became Yin Wang, and now he is the most powerful prince, his position is getting bigger and bigger, but the family relationship with Xie's family, because of this, invisibly, gradually disappear...

Thinking of this, Yin Wang Qi Si felt a little heartbroken, and sometimes he even thought: "If the Xie family is the generation who is following the trend, how wonderful it would be..."

Therefore, for Xie Ruqing's unprecedented and rare willingness to personally visit the door and invite people from his family to burn incense and worship Sanqing in the Taoist temple, Yin Wang Qisi was overjoyed, and even waved his hand to make the whole family feel happy. Everyone followed along to participate in this trip.

The Xie family has a thriving population, and the number of people who travel, roughly counted, is no less than dozens of people, and the preparations are cumbersome.

This time, the four members of Wang Yin's family unexpectedly all went with him.

Although the population of Prince Yin's family is not large, their status is particularly valuable.

Therefore, on this trip, Xie Ruqing was particularly concerned, and she was even more unwilling to leave the hands of others for security matters. Among them, the roster of guards was determined by Xie Ruqing and Gao Qi, who were loyal, highly capable, and thoughtful people.

The hard work Xie Ruqing put in for this was naturally noticed by Gu Ruosu. Gu Ruosu never thought that he would pull up such a complicated matter with just a careless remark. .

The sense of guilt in Gu Ruosu's heart seemed to reach its peak when she saw Xie Ruqing's "lit night battle".

Therefore, on the second day, before the rooster had time to crow, Gu Ruosu, who had been sleeping until the sun was high, unexpectedly broke free from Xie Ruqing's embrace.

Alone in a fox fur cloak, he tiptoed out the door without disturbing the two little maids who were watching the night, and ran towards the small kitchen in high spirits...

The road leading to the small kitchen is a narrow corridor that is not too crowded. Both sides of the corridor are regularly planted with snow-white pear trees and tangerine trees. Magpies and crows are perched on the trees at the moment, and the spring morning dew blows silently. Wet the flowers in the yard.

The air in the morning was humid and chilly. Even though she was wearing a fox fur, Gu Ruosu could still feel the chill in the morning, but she didn't shrink back because of this. Gu Ruosu slowly stopped walking when he smelled the tangy aroma of food from the rising smoke from the kitchen early in the morning...

"Creak... creak..." Gu Ruosu gently pushed open the door of the small kitchen, but the creaking sound was unavoidable, startling the sleepy chefs.

The chefs, who were wearing gray regular clothes and gray aprons, were still sleepy for the time being, but they were still cooking delicacies. When they heard the movement from the door, they all felt a wave of doubts in their hearts: [ Which bastard is it, so early, he came to them to secretly learn the craft, but he has a bit of perseverance. ]
The chefs headed by Chef Bai slowed down the movements in their hands for the time being, and looked towards the door. After seeing the person clearly the next moment, they suddenly felt that the sleeping bug had completely disappeared, and they were full of energy. , and stopped unconsciously...

"Mrs. Duke..." Chef Bai was the first to react, and whispered to Gu Ruosu.

When Gu Ruosu heard this, she smiled shyly, then stretched out her hand, waved it, and said kindly, "Good morning..."

Chef Bai and the others might have been skeptical at first, thinking that this might just be a hallucination caused by not sleeping too much. After all, noble masters like Xie Ruqing and Gu Ruosu, who are not in the sun, How could it be possible to condescend to come to their small kitchen full of oily fumes?

What's more...it's so early...

But after Gu Ruosu spoke, the last few "expectations" of Chef Bai and others disappeared completely...

The Duke's wife is really here...it's really here!

Several people kept flashing this idea in their minds, and they were so surprised that they forgot to salute and greet Gu Ruosu for a moment.

In the end, it was Gu Ruosu who spoke again:
"You guys are making breakfast... I can make one myself too..." After saying these words, Chef Bai and the others came back to their thoughts completely!
The first thing Chef Bai and the others did when they got their thoughts back was that they immediately put down what they were doing, bent over, ran up to Gu Ruosu in small steps, stood in a row, and said in unison respectfully:

"The slave has met the Duke's wife, the Duke's wife is healthy!"

"You don't need to be so polite, just raise your head up." Gu Ruosu still nodded and bowed a little uncomfortable with this group of people, and before the ceremony was finished, he quickly reached out and helped Chef Bai, the leader of the group of chefs, up.

Chef Bai was flattered and grateful for Gu Ruosu's kindness, and then he asked respectfully:
"Madam, the dew is heavy in the morning, and the cold air easily enters the body. I don't know what it is. It's worth your trip so early.

But... what's wrong with the food we've cooked recently..." Speaking of this, Chef Bai, who was originally confident in his cooking skills, felt a little uneasy...

"No, no, the food you cook is really delicious, there is nothing to improve." Gu Ruosu waved his hands quickly and said.

When Chef Bai heard this, he couldn't help being a little puzzled, so he asked, "Madam, you came to look for us so early, but what instructions do you have?"

Gu Ruosu helplessly supported his head, and explained his reason for coming in more detail:
"I don't have any instructions. I'm here to seek your help. Today, I want to make a breakfast myself for Xie Ruqing, who is the Duke you call...

But my cooking skills are really limited...cough cough cough, so I came to ask for your help early in the morning..."

After hearing this, Chef Bai and the others were stunned for a long time. They didn't expect that Gu Ruosu's intention for coming was this. It seems...the love between Yan Guogong and his wife is real...the outside world didn't exaggerate it...

After all, although Mrs. Guo is a daughter, she is supposed to take on the responsibility of sewing and cooking, but which family's big wife will cook delicacies by herself except for the few days when she is newly married. It was borrowed from someone else!

Mrs. Guogong is really a virtuous and good wife!

Gu Ruosu's image in Chef Bai's and others' hearts suddenly grew several heights. They all praised Gu Ruosu and Xie Ruqing's love, and they made up their minds to use what they have learned all their lives to help Gu Ruosu tie Xie Ruqing Stomach!

"In that case, madam, do you dare to ask the Duke what he likes to eat on weekdays, or what are his taboos?" Chef Bai asked aloud.

Gu Ruosu thought for a while, and then said with a little hesitation: "Your family's father-in-law seems to have no taboos... But I remember, he doesn't like to eat bitter melon. In the past, when he was not yet developed, the family Eat whatever you have, every meal is swept away.

But only bitter gourd, whether it is stir-fried, fried with shredded pork, or even boiled into a soup, you can often have more than half of it left. "

Chef Bai and the others nodded, secretly remembering this taboo in their hearts, and then said:
"That's nothing to worry about. Madam, you are from Qingzhou, so the food you cook in our small kitchen generally prefers sweet and sour food, and there are few bitter foods. In the past, it was almost never served on the dinner table. This is especially true for meals, and bitter gourd is served as side dishes only on one or two days in a month."

"Then what should I do for breakfast today?" Gu Ruosu gradually deviated from the track after listening to Chef Bai's words. After analyzing the characteristics of the meals in this small kitchen, he hurriedly said what Chef Bai and others said, back to the topic .

Chef Bai and the others naturally noticed the deviation from their "track", coughed and said one after another:
"Breakfast is the essence of the day. The villain thinks that it should be richer. This morning, someone just brought fresh shrimp and scallops. How about making seafood porridge, which is delicious and delicious."

"This is not good. The ingredients of seafood porridge are the most troublesome to deal with. Although Madam has a sincere heart, she can't be too embarrassing for Madam. In addition, the cooking time of seafood porridge is the most important. After a while, the seafood will be more expensive." It's rotten, it will be too blunt after a while...it's not good..."

"Then what is the right lady to do..."

"Why don't you just make millet porridge, and add some hot and sour diced radish. It's simple and filling. It's really a good product~"

"It's too monotonous and simple. After all, it's the intention of Madam who got up early in the morning to prepare. If I only do this, it's a pity that Madam got up so early..."

"That's true... but... the breakfast is too difficult, and I can't handle it with my wife's skills. If it's too simple... there are some things that I can't handle... This...how can I do it..."

"..."

"..."

A group of people discussed and discussed, negating more than a dozen dishes back and forth, but failed to discuss a reason, which seemed a bit embarrassing and distressing...

Gu Ruosu also sighed helplessly along with the chefs, and amidst the sighs one after another, Chef Bai suddenly said:
"Ma'am, I have a good suggestion here!"

As soon as Gu Ruosu heard it, he became interested, pricked up his ears, and asked expectantly, "What can I do..."

Chef Bai was a little uncomfortable being stared at by Gu Ruosu's big piercing eyes, cleared his throat, and said:
"My little one remembers that the ancestral home of the Duke should be in Kyoto. People in the capital usually eat porridge for breakfast, but I have been in the mansion for many years, and I know something about the Duke. The residence of the Duke Even though I am from Kyoto, when I was young, I lived in Qingzhou just like your wife.

Breakfast in Qingzhou is mainly based on pot sides and pasta. Although the pot sides are delicious, it is a bit difficult to operate, but the noodles are different. A few vegetables, a fried egg, or some shredded pork, and a bowl of old bone soup , coupled with hand-rolled noodles, is a unique delicacy.

In our kitchen, bone broth is always stocked, so Madam doesn't have to worry about it. Other fried eggs and other things are also simple, so Madam won't be embarrassed if she thinks about it.

It is rather cumbersome to roll the noodles, but all of us are good at it. If my wife is willing, she can learn to knead the noodles under our guidance, and roll the noodles by herself. The shape and thickness don’t need to be perfect, as long as there is someone The shape is good, and it doesn't affect the taste of the opposite side much..."

As soon as Chef Bai's words fell, Gu Ruosu clapped his hands in agreement, and then said excitedly: "Chef Bai! You are so smart! You are so right! Why didn't I think of it!

I don't need to be obsessed with making porridge at all!You can try to make some simple but delicious things, what is better than the taste of hometown!
Chef Bai!Without further ado!You teach me quickly!Your grandpa got up early, I don't want to wait for him to wake up, I haven't finished yet! "

Seeing Gu Ruosu's excited look, Chef Bai immediately waved his hand, telling everyone to stop what they were doing for a while, and concentrate on teaching Gu Ruosu how to roll noodles.

Just look at a group of "expert" chefs, all of them are dignified at the moment, but they are also a little excited to gather together, watching Gu Ruosu wearing an apron, carefully spreading powder around the center of the stove...adding water...

It seems to be doing something special!
But until the morning sun rises from the east again, the early chickens are flying to the corner of the eaves, ready to stretch their throats...

A sound of "touch" came from the direction of the kitchen, and immediately, a puff of thick black smoke floated from the sky above the Hefeng Hall...
