Food for the people

After returning from the emperor's banquet, Qiao Yu became even busier.

He has no parents, and no one was supposed to do the things that Joe's father and mother were supposed to worry about, but in the end they were all taken away by Grandma Song. If Lu Jincheng said that Qiao Yu didn't need to prepare anything, he nodded in response. The palace is the only thing Qiao Yu has to do.

But Grandma Song felt that it shouldn't be like this.

Although she has never discussed the marriage of two men in most of her life, from her point of view, weddings and funerals are generally the same thing, no one cares who marries whom, Qiao Yu has no parents, and he has no parents. It is the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion. She has never seen any big family in her life, and she still can't imagine how big this Prince Yan's Mansion can be. She only knows that Lu Jincheng has the same blood as the current emperor. She is the nobleman among the nobles. It was someone they would never have a relationship with for the rest of their lives.

Now, because of Qiao Yu's relationship, she can see this Prince Yan every day, and when he smiles at Qiao Yu, he is not as scary as she imagined before. With an old woman like her who has never seen the world I can also chat a few words from time to time, and I don't have the airs of a big shot at all.

She also thought of Lu Jincheng's appearance when he said that he had a sweetheart, and felt that this prince was also an ordinary person, and he couldn't help showing it on his face when he talked about someone he liked.Since they are ordinary people, then this marriage is also an ordinary marriage. Since it is an ordinary marriage, Qiao Yu should have a lot of things. Prince Yan's Mansion is definitely not rare, but it is Lu Jincheng's business whether it is rare or not. No matter, she just had to prepare the things that Qiao's family should prepare, so that Qiao Yu's marriage was the same as other people's marriage, without any difference.

When Qiao Yu heard Grandma Song say that, she didn't dare to blink for a long while, for fear that she couldn't help but redden her eyes again in front of Grandma Song, even though Grandma Song still thinks that she married him into Prince Yan's mansion, But in this world, he can meet such an elder who treats him sincerely, which is a blessing that he can't ask for no matter what.

So he cooperated very well. Grandma Song said that she would make some quilts for him. For this reason, she went to the street to collect hundreds of catties of cotton. The price was not cheap, and the money Qiao Yu gave her was useless, saying that there was nothing else. You can give him something, and these are her gifts.

Qiao Yu shied away a few times but did not let Grandma Song accept the money. Instead, she annoyed him and said that if she gave him more money, she would not do it for him. Qiao Yu had no choice, so she gave up.

Grandma Song didn't wait for Song Siming to get married, so she helped Qiao Yu get it together first. For a few days, she and Aunt Qiufeng went to the street to flick the cotton they had collected. Together with an old lady, they worked from morning to night, and finally made six brand new quilts. Those who didn't know it thought she was busy with her grandson's marriage.

In addition to preparing quilts, there are many other things. Qiao Yu knows nothing about it. He has to ask Grandma Song about everything. Grandma Song is also happy to give him advice. Basically, she is busy at Qiao Yu's house every day.

Qiao Yu went to both ends of the Qiao family in the Tianwang Mansion, and finally consulted Lu Jincheng's opinion, and moved back to the small courtyard of Qiao's family, and lived with Qiao Ling back in the small courtyard at the beginning.

He has no feelings for Qiao's mansion, and he doesn't plan to hold a wedding in Qiao's mansion. He has thought about it, and the Qiao mansion will definitely be reserved for Qiao Ling in the future. As for himself, he has more affection for Qiao's small courtyard, even if The place is old and rundown.

After Qiao Yu and Qiao Ling moved back to Qiao's courtyard, Lu Jincheng also lived here.

Although there are no more people who used alcohol to bolster their courage to act wildly outside Qiao's small courtyard, Lu Jincheng was still worried that he would not put people under his nose.

As for Qiao Yu, Lu Jincheng didn't dislike his little bed, so naturally he wouldn't have any objections.

It seems that there is only less than one month left in the time, and preparations are in full swing at the Wangfu. Aunt Suihe has followed the Queen Mother's order and lived in Yanwangfu. Together with Mrs. Shen, they cleaned up the inside and outside of Yanwangfu .

Prince Yan's Mansion is very large. Since the mansion was built, there were not many people living there. Many of the courtyards were left unused and would only be cleaned once a long time on weekdays. Now that the manor is about to hold a big wedding, it is natural to go from the inside to the mansion. Clean up the outside.

And the most important place is the Linxiu Pavilion in Dongyuan.

Not only have everything been tidied up, but some places have even been re-arranged, so not only Qiao Yu is busy, but Lu Jincheng is also very busy. Although he doesn't know anything about marriage, the decoration of Linxiu Pavilion still needs to be done. After he nodded, he was the only one in the mansion before, and many things were arranged according to his habits, and then Qiao Yu was added. Linxiu Pavilion is equivalent to reorganizing, which is easy to say, but if Really do, there are still many things.

Qiao Yu has something to do here, and Lu Jincheng's side is also busy. Except for sleeping time at night, Qiao Yu often doesn't see anyone from Lu Jincheng.

This morning, before Lu Jincheng could wait for Qiao Yu to wake up, he had already left.

Qiao Yu put on his clothes and got up, opened the door and saw Qiao Ling washing up outside, after seeing him, he spat out the water in his mouth and said hello to his brother.

Qiao Yu smiled at him and said, "Why do you wake up so early?"

Qiao Ling washed his face several times, wiped it and said, "It's getting late, when I got up, brother Yan was already ready to go out, he got up much earlier than me."

Qiao Yu slept soundly, and had no memory of when he got up at all. He was a little surprised when he heard that Qiao Ling had already woken up early enough on weekdays, but Lu Jincheng was much earlier than Qiao Ling in these two days. I know that the palace is redecorating the Temporary Pavilion during this time, but Sanqi said to him two days ago that the installation is almost done. Even if Lu Jincheng is busy, he shouldn't be so busy these two days ah.

Qiao Yu thought about it in her heart, but that was all she thought, and she didn't think too deeply. After answering Qiao Ling's call, she washed up and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

He went out early two days ago, he was too busy to make breakfast at home, so Qiao Ling ate outside for a few days, Grandma Song said yesterday that he had nothing to do today, and now he has time to relax at home Make breakfast.

Ever since he knew that he likes to drink milk, Lu Jincheng ordered him to give Qiao Yu a cup of milk every day when he was in the palace. He brought milk to Qiao Yu, but he didn’t enter the door, so he put it in a small jar and hung it on the door for Qiao Yu. It was fresh and warm every day. It should be freshly squeezed on the same day. No, Qiao Yu likes it very much.

Today Qiao Ling opened the door after washing and still saw the milk jug hanging on the door, he carried the jug in, stood at the door of the kitchen and asked Qiao Yu: "Brother, did you drink the milk directly hot today? "

Qiao Yu hadn't thought about what to eat yet, but when she heard Qiao Ling's question, she suddenly had an idea and said, "Wait, don't heat it up, keep it for me, just make it for breakfast."

Qiao Ling hadn't eaten his breakfast at home for a long time, his eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked, "Brother, aren't you going out today?"

Qiao Yu nodded: "Well, Grandma Song is finally done with her work. There shouldn't be anything else going on in the past two days. You can think about what you want for lunch now. I have nothing to do at noon, so I can prepare it and send it to you."

Qiao Ling's eyes brightened, "Is it okay to steam pork ribs with rice flour? I brought some to the academy last time, and Ling Xiao also said it was very delicious."

Qiao Yu agreed, "No problem, then I'll make more and prepare something else, you don't need to prepare if you tell my husband."

Qiao Ling smiled and said, "That's just right, sir must be happy."

Unlike Qiao Yu, Jiang Songyu is not very good at cooking, not to mention his son Jiang Lingxiao, he also dislikes his cooking skills very much, and only Meng Zhao can eat it without changing his face, and praise that it is delicious.On weekdays, when Meng Zhao was at home, most of the work was done by Meng Zhao. Occasionally, when Meng Zhao was not around, Jiang Songyu had to do it himself. If Qiao Ling said that he could eat something good today without doing it himself, he would be happy.

Qiao Yu asked Qiao Ling to keep the milk. In fact, he wanted to make a soufflé, but he was not sure if the iron pot and firewood could be made, so he didn't tell Qiao Ling in advance that if it couldn't be done, he could change it to milk Muffins, not as fluffy as souffle, but the taste is not bad.

Qiao Ling was waiting for school, and Qiao Yu didn't delay too much. He divided the eggs, tied a few chopsticks together, and started beating the egg whites. When it changed its appearance in the hands of my brother, I was still very surprised.

While Qiao Yu whipped the egg whites to a suitable level, he explained the principle to Qiao Ling. Qiao Ling listened with wide-eyed eyes and told him to try it next time.

Qiao Yu's hands were sore when he stirred the egg whites, and finally finished the egg whites. The egg yolk paste was mixed with flour, and finally mixed with the whipped egg whites, and finally the batter was finished.

Fortunately, I got up early today, otherwise I don't know when I will eat this meal.

Fortunately, although the preparatory work has been done for a long time, the muffins are fried very quickly. The iron pan at home is kept bright. Even if only a small amount of oil is used, it will not stick to the pan. Fry several.

Qiao Ling retreated the big firewood, leaving only the charcoal that was burning red. Qiao Yu scooped a few spoonfuls of batter into it and spread it out, sprinkled some water and covered it. It took only a few minutes for the batter to be cooked, and then turned it over to the other side. After a little frying, the milk-flavored egg aroma of the muffins floats together, filling the whole room.

The finished muffins were not as fluffy as a soufflé, but they were much fluffier than Qiao Yu expected, warm and soft, and much more fragrant than most of the pastries Qiao Ling had eaten.

The muffins would collapse when cooled, and the taste would be worse than when they were hot, so Qiao Yu didn't keep them for Lu Jincheng. Although he made a lot, they served them with milk and jam, and they ate them all.

After breakfast, Qiaoling went to the academy, Qiao Yu finally got some free time, and planned to go to Deyulou again.

In the past two days, Aunt Qiufeng was brought by Grandma Song to help, and she was no longer in Deyulou, but now there are many people in Deyulou, and Chen Cong went to help every day when she was free, and Zhao Kang was not busy alone.

Qiao Yu packed up her things, locked the door and went to Deyulou.

Chen Cong hadn't come yet, and there weren't many people in the store at the moment, Zhao Kang was not too busy, and was having dinner with the servants in the store, seeing Qiao Yu coming, he quickly got up and asked him if he had eaten.

Qiao Yu pushed the man down and sat down, saying that he had eaten and let him eat first, and sat behind the counter by himself, looking through the accounts for the past few days.

Just sitting there, he saw someone coming from outside. When he entered the door, he poked his head in and looked in. When he saw Qiao Yu, his eyes lit up suddenly. He walked up and asked Qiao Yu: "You guys posted the list outside earlier. Does it still count? I, I’m here to give a congratulatory gift.”

Congratulations?What gift?Qiao Yu looked at Zhao Kang inexplicably, but Zhao Kang blinked at him.

The man didn't understand Zhao Kang's eyes, and looked a little anxious: "Is it because I am late? Shouldn't I not accept it?"

Seeing that Zhao Kang was about to speak again in a hurry, Qiao Yu interrupted him first, and said, "Shut up, I'm not late, but you have to tell me first, what list are you talking about?"
