Chapter 30 Lotus Paste Cake

In fact, Gu Qingchen is not the only one who can't sleep, and Nanny Li, who has endured two months without doing anything, is even more sleepless at night. Every time she thinks of Wu Yuyan's warning and the threat of the eldest lady, she itches her teeth with hatred. This damned second miss, how could she be so entangled?Glancing at a paper package on the case out of the corner of his eye, he made up his mind to do it as soon as possible!
The next day, Yan Zhou, Nanny Li walked to the kitchen with small steps, looked around for a while, locked on the target, pulled a woman to a hidden place in the outer courtyard, and talked in detail.

"Sister Hua, I know you don't like my young lady, so she is really pitiful, can you make her a plate of lotus paste cake today? She is making a lot of noise, and I can't help it."

Sister Hua looked at Nanny Li up and down, and sneered: "What do you mean by saying you master and servant? Last time, what the silly princess said didn't look like what a fool could say. This gave a blow to someone, and you are begging for softness." Come on? She wants to eat lotus paste cake, but she told the butler that it is, so why not make it for her?"

Nanny Li lowered her eyes meekly: "I think in that kitchen, Sister Hua is the only one who is kind-hearted. I came here to say hello to Sister Hua. This is a small gesture, not a respect. Please accept it."

Taking out a good-quality jade bracelet from her hand, Sister Hua's eyes flashed brightly, she hid it in her sleeve, and smiled: "It's just a plate of lotus paste cake, I'll tell the cook later, Let the princess eat it at noon."

Nanny Li looked left and right, then smiled and said: "I have been ill for two months, and I haven't served the master, so I would like to ask Sister Hua to bring this pastry and food to me first, and then I will bring it to the master to apologise."

Sister Hua wanted to refuse, but the nanny smiled and stuffed a pair of exquisite earrings into her sleeve: "These things are just decorations here, and they were all rewarded by my wife before. Instead of letting them get moldy, I think, I'd rather Why don't you give it to Sister Hua, it's more useful in Sister Hua's place than mine, what do you think, Sister Hua?"

"It's easy to say." Putting away the earring happily, Sister Hua glanced at the kitchen, "It's almost time for lunch, I'll let the cook know first, you just wait."

Seeing that Sister Hua turned her hips back to the kitchen, Nanny Li turned back to her room with a sarcastic smile.

"Taoyao, I'm hungry! Qingchen wants to eat!" Gu Qingchen lay on the bed pouting, and Taoyao outside saw her so amused, and greeted her: "Miss is up? It's already noon, and the nanny has already The food is here, it's hot, and your favorite lotus paste cake!"

It's all the fault of Murong Junye!It caused her to suffer from insomnia last night, and she only fell asleep this morning, so naturally she woke up late.Huh?wrong!What did Tao Yao just say?Meals from the nanny? "Why did the nanny send it? Qing Chen remembered that it should be Aunt Du."

Taoyao called to wash her face, and while helping her to dress, she replied: "The nanny said that she can't take care of you, miss, during her illness, so she will do some small things for you when she recovers."

Do little things for her?It's really a trivial matter, this Madam Li has no other skills, but she is very good at lying. Gu Qingchen was careful, and hid a silver needle from the embroidered bag on the dressing table between her fingers.After washing up and sitting on the table, he looked up at Taoyao with wide eyes: "Taoyao, Taoyao, Qing Chen left something in the outer courtyard yesterday, good Taoyao, can you help Taoyao find it?"

Taoyao didn't doubt that there was him, so she helped her arrange the dishes and then went out to look for him.Gu Qingchen probed each dish carefully with a needle, and found nothing unusual, frowned and set aside the lotus paste cake, how did the kitchen know that she likes to eat this kind of food?It was also delivered by the nanny.It was really weird, not long after, the lower part of the silver needle mutated, making her smile.

"Miss, Taoyao didn't find it—" When Taoyao came back, she saw Gu Qingchen resting her chin on both hands, staring at the food in front of her, but she just didn't move her chopsticks, "Miss, why don't you eat?"

Gu Qingchen turned to look at her, with hesitation in his big eyes: "Taoyao, I heard that the people in the kitchen are all bad, although you say I am a princess, but the nanny is not, if they bully the nanny and don't give her food If not, Qing Chen will be sad."

Tao Yao smiled and comforted softly: "Miss, don't worry, they won't go too far."

"Ah! Let's do this! Taoyao, Qingchen, send Qingchen's food to the nanny, and then ask them to cook for Qingchen, okay?" Gu Qingchen rolled his eyes, his face full of slyness. .

Tao Yao couldn't help laughing: "Okay, okay, I'll send it for Miss right now."

Gu Qingchen pulled Taoyao's sleeve and twisted it: "But...can you leave the lotus paste cake to Qingchen?" After saying that, she blushed slightly.

Seeing that the plate containing the lotus paste cake was empty, Taoyao thought that the young lady must be greedy for it. Seeing her embarrassed look, she found it interesting, "The lotus paste cake is originally for the young lady, Tao Yao Of course Yao won’t take it with her.”

Gu Qingchen was happy, and he waved his hands generously and said, "Then you go and come back quickly, don't forget to bring another copy for Qing Chen!"

Nanny Li felt strange when she heard Taoyao's voice outside the door, and she was even more shocked when she saw that she put the tray back without moving, but seeing the lotus paste cake disappeared, she finally settled down.

"Nurse, you are here to open the door. Miss is afraid that you will be exhausted after being ill for a long time, so she specially sent me to bring this meal to you." Tao Yao placed the tray on the table, and said carefully to Nanny Li, " Although Miss is somewhat murderous, you also know that she is simple and easy to deal with, as long as you treat Miss well, Miss will not treat you badly."

Hearing Taoyao's words, Nanny Li was filled with sarcasm, she was already half-into the coffin, and still wanted to protect others?It's just a fool's dream!However, she pretended to be flattered on her face: "Young lady, what you said is right, from the prime minister's mansion to the king's mansion, there are only the three of us depending on each other, right, I naturally want to win the princess."

Taoyao looked left and right, but she didn't see that her words were acting. She thought that before, she only said that it was Mrs. Wu and the others in the prime minister's mansion. The dignified prince and concubine are not comparable to those people: "Okay, I'm going back."

Sending Tao Yao away, Nanny Li sat on a chair, looked at the steaming food, and thought about the lotus paste cake, and sneered. Thanks to her cleverness, she knew that the fool would definitely eat the lotus paste cake first, and wipe out the poisonous rice cake. Put it in the pastry, otherwise, wouldn't such a table of delicious dishes be ruined?Stewed vegetables with black-bone chicken, roasted pork with mushrooms, braised crucian carp in soy sauce... Tsk tsk, blame that idiot for not eating well. For the last meal, he only ate the poisonous lotus paste cake!

Picking up the chopsticks, Mammy Li put the chopsticks fish meat into her mouth contentedly, it was delicious, and then scooped a large spoonful of black chicken soup from a small bowl, which was even more delicious, babble, babble, what will happen tomorrow, but it has nothing to do with her old woman !
