The Princess and Mr. Jiang Wu were distinguished guests, so naturally they had to stay for lunch.

Because there were no elders around, and taking into consideration that Gu Jinchu had not yet reached the age of marriage, and the noble eldest princess, a screen was placed in the main hall.

Zheng Kaiji and Jiang Nansheng were on one side, and on the other side were Zhao Xuan, Wang Shi, and Gu Jinchu.

The three of them brought two little bald kids and a four-year-old boy.

"Chu Jie'er, didn't you say that cherries can be used to make many delicious foods?"

The eldest princess was not wearing a palace dress today, and she was warm and cheerful, so she looked much more approachable.

Gu Jinchu sat on the bed with his back to the screen. He had just said that he would try not to appear in front of Jiang Nansheng, but he wouldn't pretend to be sick and not come out, as that would be more deliberate.

She smiled slightly. After crying for a while, Bai Shao helped her to put on makeup again. Although there was no change on her face, her throat was still a little hoarse.

"The most common way is to make candied fruit, but it takes a long time and it's too late to make it now."

She thought for a moment and continued, "It can also be made into ice fruit or steamed buns."

"Steamed buns? I know Bingguo, but what are steamed buns?"

The eldest princess became interested when she heard this. As long as the ice fruit was iced, it would be fine. She had never heard of what Gu Jinchu said next.

The biggest gain from this trip out of the palace was probably that she saw and heard many things she had never come across before.

Not only Zhao Xuan was curious, but Zheng Kaiji, Wang, and the twin cousins ​​were also very curious.

Angger, who is only four years old, has a special liking for the bowl of ice fruit.

Then there was Jiang Nansheng, who sat there and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

...

When Zheng Kaiyu came over, his cousin led everyone to sit in the yard of the small kitchen, while the cook and the servants were waiting outside in a somewhat reserved manner.

"Brother, what are you doing in there? It smells so good. We can smell it right at the gate."

He turned his head and looked at his friend beside him, "Is it Zhizhou?"

Zheng Kaiji stood up and saw Lu Zhizhou next to his second cousin. His grandmother was really...

He patted Zheng Kaiyu on the shoulder and said, "It's better to arrive by chance than to arrive in time. You are lucky to have such a good meal."

Pointing to the fire not far away, he said, "It's my cousin. Use the fire to bake some steamed buns for us."

Gu Jinchu heard the sound coming out of the small kitchen. It was his second cousin whom he hadn't seen yesterday, and Lu Zhizhou.

"Second cousin, Brother Lu."

After Gu Jinchu said this, she always felt that someone was looking at her.

Just like last time, Lu Zhizhou blushed before he even spoke. He cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Sister Gu, we meet again after we parted at the Song family last time."

After all, Gu Jinchu had been married in her previous life, and Lu Zhizhou's behavior clearly showed that he was fond of her.

He is a very naive person who doesn't know how to hide things, and he's afraid that someone with ulterior motives will find out.

After hearing what my grandmother said, I had to make him understand my attitude even if it was not easy to point it out.

She knows the pain of wanting something but not getting it. If it is not possible, don't give hope to anyone.

Unexpectedly, as soon as my second cousin returned to Baodi, he brought the person to the village.

There were two big Buddha statues in the house. Zheng Kaiji took his cousin and the young friend from the Lu family to pay their respects to them.

When Gu Jinchu saw their backs, he felt that he had been overthinking.

Jiang Nansheng was a well-known young genius who became the top scholar at the age of 18. His second cousin might have known that he was at the farm, so he brought his friends to visit him.

After all, everything that happened in Zhuangzi could not be hidden from my grandmother.

She remembered that her second cousin was the one who passed the imperial examination this year and seemed to have participated in the palace examination. If he had Jiang Nansheng's advice, he would definitely benefit a lot.

"Auntie, is the bun ready?"

Anger lay on Gu Jinchu's lap and asked him, his big eyes full of desire.

The child was more cheerful than when she first came to the farm. She smiled and opened the stove lid, and an even stronger aroma wafted into her nose.

The twin cousin licked his lips and said with a grin, "It smells delicious!"

The eldest princess walked in from outside and looked at the pot with wide eyes like Wang.

This was the first time that Zhao Xuan had entered the kitchen since she was a child. Wang was well-versed in poetry and books at home, and her needlework and embroidery skills were praised by everyone, but she was not good at cooking.

It was the first time for everyone to see pancakes being baked in an oven. It was fresh just to look at, not to mention the fragrant smell.

Gu Jinchu took the long bamboo chopsticks and deftly picked out the golden baked pancake.

Some of the pancakes were sprinkled with white sesame seeds, and some were sprinkled with black sesame seeds. Gu Jinchu put them in two plates respectively.

The three little guys couldn't wait to come over, and Wang was frightened to death.

He stretched out his arms to stop them and led them outside, his tone a little tense, "There's a fire burning in the stove, Ang'er and the uncles, come to the yard to eat."

After saying that, she looked at the eldest princess beside her nervously. She was the monarch and they were the subjects. Was she overstepping the boundaries?

I felt relieved when I saw the eldest princess surrounding my cousin and her expression remained unchanged.

Zhao Xuan naturally heard what Wang said. Didn't she come here to relax?

Still feeling comfortable with Gu Jinchu, he took a tray from her hand and asked, "Chu Jie'er, is there any difference between white sesame and black sesame?"

When Gu Jinchu and the eldest princess came out, the two cousins ​​and Ang'er were already looking forward to it.

Sitting obediently at the table, looking at her with a smile.

Gu Jinchu first picked them up one by one and put them on the plate, then handed them to Zhao Xuan beside him.

The fact that the eldest princess was informal was no excuse for them not knowing etiquette. "The one with white sesame seeds had cherry filling, which was sweet. The one with black sesame seeds had lamb and cherry filling, which was salty and fragrant with a little bit of sweetness."

After saying this, he lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly. Getting used to this thing is a terrible thing.

Cheng En likes sweet food, while Jiang Nan Sheng prefers fresh and fragrant food...

The eldest princess first tried a piece sprinkled with white sesame seeds. The crust was golden and crispy, the filling was sweet and fragrant, and it had the taste of fruit pulp.

“It’s crispy and fragrant, so delicious!”

Gu Jinchu asked Bai Shao to distribute it to the cooks and servants standing outside, and asked the head of the village to find someone to send some to his grandparents.

This kind of scone will not become hard even when it cools down, and the filling will solidify slightly, giving it a different flavor.

Zheng Kaiji and his men came over following the smell, with Jiang Nansheng following them.

Jiang Nansheng naturally liked the delicious and fragrant mutton filling, and his gentle expression became even more relaxed.

Seeing Lu Zhizhou blushing as he talked to Gu Jinchu, he asked Zheng Kaiji in a cold voice, "Are you Zheng family members all reasonable and self-contained?"

Zheng Kaiji ate with a smile on his face. He and Jiang Nansheng had studied together when they were young. He replied without hesitation:

"My grandmother taught us since we were young that as long as we did not violate the law, we should always make ourselves happy."

Speaking of his grandmother, he remembered the task she had given him.

He cleared his throat, with pancake crumbs still on his face, and turned to look at Jiang Nansheng, then followed his gaze to see his cousin and Lu Zhizhou.

"Fifth Master, I heard that you are engaged to Miss Shen?"

......

饆(Bi)饠(Luo), I saw it in movies and TV shows, it’s about baking cakes. When I wrote it, I had in mind the shape of a pie…
