Chapter 84 Family Dinner
Not to mention what kind of Xiao Jiujiu the old housekeeper had in mind, Gu Baiyu was very satisfied with his cooking skills.
She went back to her room to tidy up, and after changing her clothes, she went to the study in person to invite Xiao Yanlin and the two lieutenants to come and have dinner.
In the study, Xiao Yanlin had almost finished discussing with the two of them, and was about to go out when he bumped into Gu Baiyu who came to invite someone.
Lingyu was smart. When Gu Baiyu said, "I prepared a few glasses of wine to treat the two generals to a meal," Lingyu said from the side: "Madam also cooked a few dishes for everyone."
At this time, not only the two lieutenants, but also Xiao Yanlin were very surprised.
Surprised, his first reaction was to quickly pull Gu Baiyu's hands and carefully observe her hands, as if he was afraid that she would be injured.
Gu Baiyu couldn't help crying or laughing, "What's wrong with Mr. Hou?"
Xiao Yanlin frowned slightly, "Did the cooks in the kitchen cook bad food? I'll replace them another day."
Gu Baiyu said quickly: "No, no!"
She looked a little embarrassed, "I just suddenly remembered today that when I was in my boudoir, my mother taught me several Jiangnan dishes. I happened to have guests today, so I showed off my shame."
She looked at Xiao Yanlin with some anxiety: "Does the Marquis not like it?"
Xiao Yanlin shook his head, "Why don't you like it? I'm just afraid that you will get hurt."
How could he not like it?
The one you love makes soup for you, and while you feel happy, you feel even more distressed.
Gu Baiyu should be held in his hands and doted on, and should enjoy all the beauty in the world.
These slender hands can be used to draw pictures or play the piano, but they should not be used to cook for him.
Gu Baiyu could clearly see the distress in his eyes. Warmth flashed through his heart, and he suddenly understood what Xiao Yanlin was thinking.
She turned her hand to cover Xiao Yanlin's calloused hand, "Don't worry, Mr. Hou, I will do it occasionally. If I don't do it in the future, I will give the recipe to Dai Qing, and Dai Qing will do it from now on."
Xiao Yanlin thought this idea was a good one and agreed immediately, as if he was afraid that Gu Baiyu would regret it.
"That's fine. When I eat those dishes in the future, I can remember that my wife once cooked for me."
The two people were so close to each other that the two lieutenants beside them had different expressions.
Lingyu was used to it, but the two lieutenants on the side saw this situation for the first time.
Even though they knew that their Marquis liked the newlywed lady very much, he never expected that he would like her to this extent.
The general, who was cold-hearted, unsmiling, and reserved in front of them, could express his emotions so openly without any attempt to hide his love for his wife.
This is simply... simply incredible.
If other colleagues saw it, their jaws would probably drop, right?
Gu Baiyu was only immersed in emotions for a moment. After reacting, he felt a little embarrassed. He pulled his hand away, coughed and said, "Two adults, let's go have a meal."
When we arrived at the dining room, several dishes, bowls and chopsticks had been placed.
The maid stood aside with her head lowered, waiting to serve the dinner for several people.
The old butler took a step forward, bent to Xiao Yanlin's side, and said, "Master Marquis, here are the three dishes prepared by Madam."
Xiao Yanlin followed the old butler's gaze and saw all three dishes placed in front of his head. He immediately felt very satisfied, nodded to the old butler and said, "Thank you for your hard work, old man."
The old housekeeper's smile deepened.
It seems that his monthly payment has been increased this time.
Among the two lieutenants, Ren Qing was the smarter and more understanding of people. When he saw Xiao Yanlin like this, he knew that they would not be able to enjoy these three dishes today.
But Chang Zhinian was confused and stubborn, so he immediately said, "Mrs. made it by yourself? Then I want to try it!"
After saying that, he sat down and started the banquet with Xiao Yanlin. After picking up the first dish, he dishonestly extended his chopsticks to the plate in Xiao Yanlin's hand.
Unexpectedly, when the chopsticks reached the air, Xiao Yanlin raised his chopsticks and blocked it!
Xiao Yan faced this block with a slight internal force. Chang Zhinian felt that his arms were numb from the shock.
He raised his eyebrows, his competitive spirit rising!
The two of them held chopsticks in their hands and made a few moves in the air. The strong wind swept past them, leaving several little maids dumbfounded.
But in the end, Xiao Yanlin was superior and blocked Chang Zhinian's chopsticks from several plates of dishes.
Chang Zhinian attacked several times but failed. He simply put his chopsticks aside and said carelessly, "Master Marquis, you are not kind. This is too stingy. Didn't Madam say that she did this specially to welcome us?" Three dishes? Why can’t I eat even one bite?”
In fact, he didn't necessarily want to try these dishes, but seeing the stingy look on Mr. Hou's face, he wanted to tease him more and more, and wanted to see more expressions on Wannian Bingshan's face.
He was not afraid of being stopped now. They knew Xiao Yanlin's temper very well. Xiao Yanlin would not be angry at such a joke.
However, the old housekeeper naturally would not let Xiao Yanlin answer what he said in person. He immediately laughed with him and explained to Chang Zhinian.
"General Chang doesn't know that these three dishes were taught by Mrs. Gu's mother in Jiangnan, and Mrs. Gu personally gave them to our wife! I heard that my wife's grandfather and grandmother ate these three dishes and were fond of them all their lives. Love, love, let’s talk about Prime Minister Gu and Mrs. Gu, aren’t they also a couple of gods? Everyone in Kyoto knows about their affairs? Don’t make fun of the Marquis, two generals. Isn’t this also for the sake of peace? Madam, we stay together forever! If you, General, take away a chopstick of this dish, it will have a bad meaning."
The old housekeeper explained with a smile and gave Chang Zhi Nianshu a thumbs up in his mind.
This General Chang is really wise. He was just thinking about how to tell the Marquis about the good omens of these three dishes without leaving any trace, when General Chang rushed to talk to him!
Sure enough, after listening to the old housekeeper's words, the look of satisfaction on Xiao Yanlin's face deepened.
Chang Zhinian turned his chopsticks to other dishes.
"Forget it, forget it, I won't eat it. Old housekeeper, please stop talking. If you keep talking, the sour taste in my mouth will rise to the sky. For those who don't know, I would have thought that Hou Mansion's dishes have a few tablespoons of vinegar added. Woolen cloth!"
Gu Baiyu took over the conversation at the right time and said with a smile, "Why should I be envious of General Chang? General Chang protects his family and the country. He has made great achievements and is heroic and majestic on the battlefield. As far as I know, many women in Kyoto admire Chang!" General, why should you belittle yourself? Maybe your fate will come soon?"
Chang Zhinian was a rough man. When he heard this, he grinned and slapped the table, "Oh, I just said that this sister-in-law has achieved great success! My sister-in-law is really good at talking! Then I will borrow my sister-in-law's good words. I hope I can do the same in the future." I can marry someone as beautiful as a flower!”
Xiao Yanlin felt the envious gazes of the two people and felt that today's dishes were really delicious.
Especially the last bit of the three dishes cooked by Gu Baiyu himself went into his stomach.
Fortunately, Gu Baiyu understood his little thoughts and knew that he would never let these three dishes be eaten by others. He was afraid that he would hold up, so he deliberately cooked a small amount of each dish.
Xiao Yanlin finished all the dishes and didn't feel full.
Gu Baiyu fulfilled his previous promise, prepared a lot of good wine for the three of them, and watched them chat.
They talked about the scenery of the frontier fortress, the wild sands of the Mobei, and the coldness of the northwest;
She poured the wine for them herself and listened with a smile. It seemed that she followed their words and traveled to the distant frontier of Daye...
……
Chang Zhinian said he wanted to get Xiao Yanlin drunk, and he was telling the truth. Ren Qing, despite his usual smile, was actually very cunning, and poured a lot of wine into Xiao Yanlin.
In the end, Xiao Yanlin was actually a little drunk.
When he stood up, he staggered, and Gu Baiyu quickly reached out to support him.
Ren Qing drank better and was still conscious, but Chang Zhinian was already drunk and unconscious.
Ren Qing had no choice but to hang the person on her body, help him walk out, and said to the back, "Mrs. Marquis, stay here. No need to send him away, I will send this drunkard back!"
Gu Baiyu did not shirk and asked the old housekeeper to see them off in person.
Looking at the backs of the three people walking away, Gu Baiyu sighed with emotion, "This General Qing is really strong. Looking at the gentle and gentle General Chang, who weighs more than 200 kilograms, he doesn't find it difficult."
Xiao Yanlin's lifelong chuckle suddenly came to his ears.
"Why would Madam think that there are people in my military camp who don't know martial arts? There are no idlers in the military camp. Even if you are a general, you must first be able to save your own life."
Gu Baiyu turned around and saw that the man next to him had a clear look on his face. How could he look like he was just drunk?
"Master Hou, are you not drunk?"
Xiao Yanlin paused when he heard this, and put his hand on Gu Baiyu's shoulder, slightly controlling the force so that she wouldn't feel too heavy, but he didn't let go either.
"No, madam is wrong. My husband is already drunk. Madam, please help me back to the room."
The little maid on the side had already retreated with interest. The little maid who served the dishes before looked a little dumbfounded and stood there with her cheeks still a little red.
The maid on the side pulled her, "What are you still doing, Xiang Lian? Let's go quickly!"
When they walked out of the corridor, the maid who pulled people frowned, looked at Xianglian who was blushing, and said: "Xianlian, we are maids. I advise you not to have any thoughts that you shouldn't have. Madam is generous, right? The servants are also quite tolerant. Being able to do certain things in the Marquis Mansion is something that not many people would envy, so don’t get carried away!"
The little maid was new here. When she heard such words, the blush on her face deepened, but her expression was already very calm and her tone of voice was very serious.
"Sister, I understand. If Madam hadn't taken me in because she was too pitiful to take me in when she was choosing someone, I would have ended up in that dusty place by now! My mother has taught me since I was a child that a person should repay kindness in return. I won’t do that kind of unscrupulous thing, I just...just..."
"Okay, okay," said another maid on the side, "it's okay if you don't have that kind of thoughts. The Marquis and his wife are the best among people. It's understandable that you lost your mind for a while. You will get used to it slowly in the future. ”
The old housekeeper who came back from seeing off the guests happened to hear the conversation between these little maids and nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that the lady's vision of people was still so accurate.
After sending away the troublemaking servants, Gu Baiyu asked him to find Ren Yazi and bring in some innocent people to re-select some servants to fill the vacancies at that time.
This little maid was born thin and small, and she didn't look very clever. She shouldn't have been selected in the first place.
It was Gu Baiyu who took her in because he saw that she was really pitiful, and that she was clear-minded and not a bad conscience. Now that she saw it, it was indeed the case.
The few maids walked away, and the old housekeeper also left humming a tune. When he left, he deliberately avoided the corridor from the dining room to the room, just to prevent anyone from disturbing Gu Baiyu and Xiao Yanlin.
The two people in question were walking into the room with some difficulty at the moment.
Xiao Yanlin seemed to have made up his mind to pretend that he was drunk. He put a hand on Gu Baiyu's shoulder and let Gu Baiyu help him to the room with some difficulty.
Along the way, they got drunk and got close to each other from time to time, which made Gu Baiyu blush when he returned to the room.
After returning to the room, Gu Baiyu helped him sit down by the bed. The little temper he had endured all the way finally broke out.
He glanced at Xiao Yanlin angrily, "Master Hou is fooling around, what should I do if someone sees me?"
She turned around, thinking about ordering someone to boil water, and then thinking about going to the kitchen to make some sobering soup...
But before she even took a step forward, the person behind her grabbed her waist and pulled her back——
"ah!"
Gu Baiyu exclaimed in surprise.
She didn't pay attention just now, her body lost her balance and fell into Xiao Yanlin's arms.
Hot breath blew against the ear, and Xiao Yanlin's voice had an inexplicable bad feeling, "What do you mean, madam, is you can't do it outside, you can just go back to the room?"
She went back to her room to tidy up, and after changing her clothes, she went to the study in person to invite Xiao Yanlin and the two lieutenants to come and have dinner.
In the study, Xiao Yanlin had almost finished discussing with the two of them, and was about to go out when he bumped into Gu Baiyu who came to invite someone.
