The Jade in the Red Chamber is the Royal Courtyard

"Okay, Ming Yu will be fine, you don't have to worry about it, Yu'er, what delicious food did you prepare for us tonight?" Princess Dongfang could see what Li Qi meant, but she couldn't help thinking about this. Li Qi looked at her differently. It seemed that this Li Qi was also interested in her son, but she didn't want Li Qi to make Daiyu look bad. After all, Daiyu was her future daughter-in-law.So he immediately stepped forward to smooth things over and said.

"But it's not a good thing. It's just some characteristics of Jiangnan." Daiyu's face turned red slightly. Daiyu really didn't think about the taste of Princess Dongfang and the others. She just wanted to do some authentic Jiangnan The food gave Lin Ruhai more appetite.

"Jiangnan cuisine is good, hehe, there aren't many authentic Jiangnan cuisines nowadays, Yu'er, go and find out, Uncle Zhou is so greedy." Zhou Qiming immediately laughed when he heard that it was Jiangnan cuisine, although Zhou Qiming He is an out-and-out military general, and he can be said to be the master of all meat and joy, but Zhou Qiming is also greedy for Jiangnan's food. After all, Zhou Qiming has been in Jiangnan for almost 20 years. After returning to Jiangnan, this time he would not have left his beloved military camp if his old friend was not critically ill, but even so, he would not be able to stay in Jiangnan for a few days, and he might have to leave in a day or two.

"Since Uncle Zhou likes to eat Jiangnan cuisine, I must let Uncle Zhou eat enough this time!" Daiyu couldn't help laughing, then turned around and went out to the kitchen to make a fuss. Behind Daiyu was actually Zhou. Yue, in Zhou Yue's words, she will be attached to Daiyu from now on.

In fact, this was already arranged by Zhou Qiming. He received a letter from Li Weiyang, saying that some people have already set their sights on Daiyu and Lin Ruhai. Lin Ruhai's critical illness is due to their hands and feet. Zhou Qiming is worried about the pair of old friends. The children also had an accident, so they simply sent their children to their side, obviously for the purpose of studying, but secretly for the protection of Daiyu's siblings.

"Sister Yueyue, you'd better play with Sister Li Qi, you can't help with those kitchen matters!" Looking at Zhou Yue's somewhat embarrassed appearance, Daiyu couldn't help laughing. Really no interest.

"How can I do that? If I want to accompany you, I will accompany you. Don't be a mother-in-law!" Zhou Yue struggled a little at the beginning of her words, but at the end she stepped forward and dragged Daiyu out just go.

"Sister Yueyue, the kitchen is over there!" Daiyu couldn't help laughing either.

"Oh! I don't know!" Zhou Yueyue said with some embarrassment.

"Brother Zhou, you don't memorize the Three Character Classic like that, and you will never remember it!" Lin Jiangyu really couldn't stand being alone: ​​"At the beginning of human beings, nature is good; nature is similar, habits are far apart." People who have memorized the words over and over again more than 40 times but still can't remember them are talking to themselves.

"Hey, my memory is just poor. I can't remember these things, but my father said that I won't give me martial arts if I don't know the Three Character Classic!" Zhou Xuemin said with a helpless face, and used his The big thick hand scratched the back of his head.

"Brother Zhou, are you also so slow in getting the sword art?" Lin Jiangyu looked at Zhou Xuemin curiously.

"The sword formula still needs to be covered? But I will remember it once I say it." Zhou Xuemin said quite proudly, but as soon as his eyes fell on the three-character scripture, the original proud gaze disappeared without a trace. "But I can't remember this thing even if I've been told it a thousand times!" Zhou Xuemin said rather distressed.

"I said, brother Zhou, if you can't study well, you have to ask Jiangyu for advice. Although Jiangyu is young, she is the best at studying. I study with him, and I am always the one who gets beaten, alas!" A head sticking out turned out to be Li Weiyang's son, Li Fei. Li Fei has been a monkey since he was a child. Those who know little about it are often beaten by Li Weiyang. In terms of martial arts, only lightness kung fu is good, and now it is even better than Li Weiyang. When Li Weiyang wants to beat this monkey boy, he can't catch up with him. Well, this is another alternative.

But Jiangyu is different. He has been good since he was a child. Maybe he suffered from illness like his sister. This child's biggest hobby is reading and practicing martial arts. Especially during the journey of studying, even Li Weiyang had to praise this child. He is a strange child. Although he is only six years old now, he has already passed the Tongsheng exam. This is because Lin Jiangyu doesn't like to be too high-profile, otherwise it is not impossible for a teenage Xie Yuan to come.

"Li Fei, do you think you don't need me to help you during the exam?" Lin Jiangyu glanced at Li Fei and said slowly, Lin Jiangyu's martial arts is not as good as Li Fei's now, and Li Fei left with Xiao Qiao. That route, a dagger is very delicate to play, and Lin Jiangyu has reached the route of opening and closing. Of course, at the beginning, he cannot match Li Fei who is good at close combat, not to mention that Li Fei is older than Lin Jiangyu several years old.

"Jiangyu, if you can help me memorize Lao Shizi's Three Character Classic, I will beg you. I can ask you to be my teacher!" Zhou Xuemin saw that Li Fei was afraid to speak, and hurried forward and said.

"Brother Zhou, don't listen to that kid's nonsense!" Lin Jiangyu said with some embarrassment.

"I can't teach, but there is a set of swordsmanship for practicing swords, but I don't know if Brother Zhou is willing to learn it?" Lin Jiangyu looked at Zhou Xuemin's disappointed look and said immediately.

"Really? What sword skills do you have?" Zhou Xuemin's eyes immediately lit up when he heard Lin Jiangyu's sword skills, and he had forgotten the Three Character Classic.

"This sword technique is not advanced, but I just learned it, and the movements are still very slow!" Lin Jiangyu blushed even more as she spoke.

"Look at what you said, all martial arts in the world have their merits, wouldn't it be boring to say that?" Zhou Xuemin said straightforwardly.

"Then I'll make a fool of myself!" Lin Jiangyu stomped into the room and picked up her little sword. "Brother Xuemin, can you see if this set of swordsmanship can still be used with sword formulas?" Lin Jiangyu used the sword in her hand one by one.

"At the beginning of human beings, the nature is good. The nature is similar, but the habits are far away!" Every sentence is matched with a sword move, and by the time the three-character scripture is memorized, Lin Jiangyu is already sweating profusely.This set of swordsmanship is the longest swordsmanship that Lin Jiangyu has ever learned, and Lin Jiangyu even made some changes to match the meaning of the Three Character Classic. In fact, these were also given to him by Dongfang Mingyu at the beginning, but Dongfang Mingyu gave it to He was building something to keep him fit and healthy.

It was used to teach Zhou Xuemin today, and Lin Jiangyu even changed a few sword moves to make the sword technique more flowing.

"Okay, okay, really good swordsmanship!" Zhou Xuemin applauded loudly, this swordsmanship is like flowing clouds and flowing water, just like floating clouds in the sky, making you confused. It is a momentum from the bottom up, which is hard to guard against.

"Brother Zhou, if you don't dislike this set of swordsmanship, I'll give you this set of swordsmanship as a gift!" Lin Jiangyu's words seemed a little old-fashioned.

"Don't dislike it, don't dislike it, brother Jiangyu, just teach me!" Zhou Xuemin said repeatedly, and his black face was shining with excitement.

"Hahahaha" Li Fei couldn't help laughing, Lin Jiangyu's words "don't dislike" were polite words, but I didn't expect this big black man to take it seriously.

"Li Fei, don't laugh at Big Brother Zhou. Big Brother Zhou is a person with the utmost affection and nature. My sister said that such a person is the most admirable!" Lin Jiangyu said with a cold face.

"Okay, okay, what your sister said!" Li Fei's face fell down suddenly, he didn't dare to laugh at that female devil, he had been punished by her a lot back then, but she just looked like a fairy .

"Is your sister very good?" Zhou Xuemin asked in surprise when he saw Li Fei's appearance. Although he was simple-minded, he was not a heartless person.

"My sister is just an ordinary lady from a great family, but she is very good at poetry and singing." Lin Jiangyu said complacently.

"Oh!" Zhou Xuemin's head became dull as soon as he heard about the poems and songs, and he stopped asking Lin Jiangyu. "Jiangyu, teach me this set of martial arts!" Zhou Xuemin still cared about that set of martial arts.

"Okay, you learn the trick one by one. In fact, every three characters of this sword formula have a little story!" Li Fei was gone, Li Fei had a wry smile on his face but he didn't dare to refuse, he secretly cursed Lin Jiangyu, a dead boy, as for Lin Jiangyu, he had already taken a book and climbed to a big tree in that comfortable place. Lie down comfortably and read a book.

"Is this West Lake Vinegar Fish?" Zhou Yue's saliva almost drool upon smelling the tangy aroma. She spent the whole afternoon in the kitchen with Daiyu, watching the same delicate pastries coming out of the pot. Slowly out of the pot, Zhou Yue's saliva was about to cross the river when he saw the authentic Jiangnan-style dishes, but Daiyu only cut a small piece of each pastry for Zhou Yue to taste. I don't want to satisfy my hunger.

"Well! Sister Yueyue, this thing is to worship the ancestors first. I also prepared a pastry. When the pastry is finished, we will wait to eat!" Lin Daiyu said quickly.

"Oh, good!" Zhou Yue kept swallowing, but her eyes were on what Daiyu was doing in her hands. Daiyu first put some pigskins in the pot and boiled them continuously. It was the hawthorn in the hands of a few little maids who kept going to the core inside.

"Sister Lin, what are you doing?" Zhou Yue looked at the movements in Daiyu's hands curiously. She looked aside and felt that the removal of the nucleus was not difficult, but it was a little too boring.

"It's delicious!" Daiyu blinked mischievously.

"What's delicious?" Zhou Yue's temperament was also mobilized by Daiyu, and she also began to help Daiyu deal with the big hawthorn pits in the basin.

It took a while for these hawthorns to be dealt with.

"Okay, wash these hawthorns with water first. Is the rock sugar I prepared ready? Are there some oranges?" Daiyu asked the maid beside her.

"Don't worry, girl, I won't be troubled by these things!" Xueyan and Xuezhu each brought a pot of boiled sugar water, while the other one held a small pot of orange juice.

"Where are the oranges? Is it set?" Daiyu said with satisfaction after looking at what Xueyan and Xuezhu had prepared.

"It's all peeled, just wait for the girl to show her skills!" Xueyan came in with a small plate of orange petals and said with a smile.

"That's good, first put the hawthorn into the pot with sugar and boil it. At first, the fire should be higher. After the pot is boiled, it should be changed to a low fire. It will be better to boil it for a while until the color of the water turns red." Well, put those things aside first, the gauze and the mold I asked to prepare are ready?" Daiyu continued to ask.

"Get ready!" Xueyan said hastily from the side.

"That's good, let's just sit here and wait!" Daiyu continued with a smile.

"Okay!" Xue Yan and the others quickly cleaned up the table and stools, and placed a few small pastries that were just made on the table, not many, but each piece was delicate and unusual.

"Sister Lin, there are so many snacks in Jiangnan!" Zhou Yue looked at the snacks on the table eagerly but couldn't reach for them, so she could only swallow silently.

"If sister Zhou likes to eat, I'll ask someone to make more and deliver it to sister Yueyue's house every day." Daiyu said with a smile.

"Thank you, Sister Lin!" Seeing that Daiyu didn't intend to let her eat snacks now, Zhou Yueyue could only swallow her saliva dryly, but felt a little unhappy in her heart.

Daiyu smiled indifferently, thinking in her heart that this will make you eat it so hard, what are you going to eat after a while?

"Girl, the pot is ready." Xueyan kept looking at the pot, seeing the changes in the pot, and hurriedly greeted Daiyu.

"Look, the skin of the meat has already melted!" Xue Yan said hastily.

"Don't worry, just let it boil!" Daiyu laughed.

"Oh!" Xueyan continued to look at the pot where the skin was boiling, but she didn't understand why she wanted to let it boil.

Daiyu got up and looked at the hawthorn and sugar that were boiling in the stove over there. The water was already boiling, and the little maid quickly added some coals to make the fire a little smaller.Holding a spoon in his hand, he kept stirring the pot.

"You don't have to stir it all the time, as long as it doesn't stick to the pot, don't be too tired!" Seeing the little maid's nervous expression, Daiyu couldn't help laughing.

"Hey!" The little servant girl was flattered and hurriedly agreed, how can the master be afraid that she will be tired?

"Sister Yueyue, if you are hungry, eat less snacks first, there will be better ones later!" Daiyu couldn't help laughing at Zhou Yueyue's resentful expression, and said hastily.

"Oh, it's too late, I want to eat something good later!" Zhou Yueyue's pretty face flushed, knowing that Daiyu had read her thoughts.

"Sister Yueyue, I like to eat this food very much. If I am not afraid of eating too much, how can I still put it here now!" Daiyu said with a smile.

"Well, it looks delicious!" Zhou Yueyue looked at Daiyu gratefully, she knew that Daiyu was trying to excuse herself.

"Girl, the one here is cooked, the skin is all melted!"

"Girl, the hawthorn here is soft."

"Xueyan, the skin on your side is completely melted, first filter it with gauze and put it aside to wait for me, is the earthen pot I prepared here ready?" Daiyu stood up quickly and said, frowning .

"Ready!"

"Yes!" The little maids were also very neat.

"Pour the hawthorn and water into the crock, and give me the rest!" Daiyu ordered and walked over with the prepared orange juice in her hand.Pour the filtered soup and orange juice together, stir evenly, and taste the taste first. Sure enough, the good cold jelly has no smell of pig skin at all, and the taste of adding orange juice and sugar is also the same. Modern jellies have come a little closer.

Daiyu peeled off the snow geese again and put some orange petals directly into the mixed jelly, then ordered the little maid to find a tray, and poured the pot of prepared water directly into the tray.

"Sister Lin, what else do we need to do now?" Zhou Yueyue asked.Sanxue and the others, except for Xuelan who was still busy with the Lin family's holiday for the little maid, the other three came here to watch Daiyu make new things.When Zhou Yueyue asked, everyone's eyes focused on Daiyu.

"Now all we have to do is wait!" Daiyu said with a smile.

"Miss, the things for ancestor worship are ready, but do you want to notify the master?" The newly appointed butler of the Lin family came to the kitchen at this time and asked Daiyu to answer Daiyu's words.The new housekeeper of the Lin family is the person Daiyu took back, in fact, it should be said that Jiangyu took it back.

This servant has been with Jiangyu for a long time. This is Jiangyu's kindness. When this man met a robber, his wife and daughter died in the hands of the robber. Only he passed out because of the robber on the roadside. Only then did he let him go, and Jiang Yu, who had returned to the Lin Mansion to pay tribute to Jia Min, met this man on the way. Not only was he rescued, but he was also reported to the government. Although the government did not solve the case, the The man is really determined to follow Jiangyu.

Lin Ruhai saw that this person had also passed the provincial examination and was very mature in his work, so he asked him to follow Jiangyu and let him take care of Jiangyu until when Jiangyu returned home, Daiyu and Jiangyu accidentally said When she got up, there was no mature housekeeper available at home, so Jiang Yu thought of him.

"Uncle He, let's wait for a while. When the lanterns first come on, let Jiangyu burn a stick of incense for the old ancestor." Daiyu said with a smile.The daughter's family always belonged to her natal family, so of course it was not the daughter's family to take charge of the ancestor worship.Even if Daiyu is the housekeeper of the Lin family, of course it would be different if she was the one who inserted the door backwards.

"Yes!" He An said quickly and respectfully.

"Uncle He, is your food ready? Although our house is not allowed to set off fireworks tonight, you are allowed to play!" Daiyu asked after thinking about it.
