Blissful Days After Widowhood

    Before it got dark, Gu Yin and Gu Ye returned to the British government.

    Wu Qingyi came back a little earlier than them.

    Wu Qingyi went behind the screen and replaced it directly in the main courtyard.

    Gu Yin was accompanied by Wang Shiliu, Song Shiliu and a few embroidered mothers, and returned to the yard where she usually lived to change clothes.

    The woman's wedding dress is complicated, and there are several layers on top of it.

    When Mrs. Wang saw her, she discussed with the embroiderer to shorten the skirt.

    They were talking here, and Wu Qingyi had already changed outside, but after waiting for them to pass, he came over and asked them why they didn't come out.

    "This impatient brat!" Wang Shi laughed and scolded, and asked Gu Yin to make a request with Xiu Niang, and then went out to chase people: "Come out, why come out? It's not your marriage today. If you want to see the bride wearing a wedding dress, wait another two months!"

    Wu Qingyi was helpless, but what Wang said was right, there was no bridegroom who could see the bride in the wedding dress before the ceremony, so Wu Qingyi could only go back to the main courtyard step by step.

    Gu Ye came from behind, he was a child, he didn't pay much attention, he patted his chest with Wu Qingyi and said, "Don't worry, uncle, I'll take care of you."

    Then just drilled through.

    Seeing that she was coming, neither Wang nor Song Shiliu stopped her.

    Gu Ye soon saw Gu Yin sitting in front of the dresser.

    A seven-year-old boy can already tell the difference between beauty and ugliness, and his mother is always good-looking.

      Don't fall, put on a complete set of makeup.

      The flames are full of splendor.

    Because there is no full-length mirror, Gu Yin turned around in front of him a few times and asked him if he looked good?

    Gu Yeren was dumbfounded, and said dumbly: "Good-looking, mother is so good-looking!"

    Gu Yin couldn't help laughing when she heard his sincere compliment, and said to Xiu Niang, "Except for the skirt, everything else is very good, and there is no need to modify it."

    Gu Yin changed her wedding dress, and the group went to see Wu Qingyi.

    Wu Qingyi also wears a fiery red wedding dress. Unlike Gu Yin's layered body, his wedding dress is very simple in style, but decent and decent.

    And because Wu Qingyi usually wears shoulder-sleeved clothes, and occasionally wears such a wide-sleeved robe, it shows a bit of a literary quality that does not violate his own.

    It is not the same style as Gu Yin's wedding dress, but it is extraordinarily contrasting.

    He was not afraid of being seen, but when Gu Yin looked at him from head to toe, a blush rose on his face.

    "Our embroidery mother's craftsmanship is really good," Gu Yin also praised: "Your body suits very well."

    Wu Qingyi followed with a smile and rolled her eyes, "As long as you like it."

    Wang and the others laughed when they saw how sweet they were.

    At the back, Mrs. Wang asked Wu Qingyi to change the wedding dress, and the family used the evening meal together.

    After dinner, Gu Ye was not in a hurry to go back to the house to do his homework, so he turned around and went to the old doctor's yard.

    The old doctor had an evening meal at the same time as the main hospital, but the old doctor was used to being idle, and he didn’t pay attention to the table. He read medical books and ate while reading, like a playful child Yes, it took almost half an hour to finish the evening meal.

    Gu Ye came over, the little medicine boy hurriedly saluted him when he saw him, Gu Ye waved his hand to tell him to be polite, then sat down next to the old doctor fairy, and said cheerfully: "Master, Haven't finished eating yet?"

    Speaking, he glanced at the dishes on the table. There are four dishes and one soup on the table, with all the color, fragrance, but no meat and fishy smell.

    Naturally, it was not the British government that deducted the old doctor's meals, but complied with his own request.

    Gu Ye said: "I know that you pay attention to your health, but this clear soup is not good if you eat too much water. Occasionally, you can eat something meaty."

    The old doctor also replied with a smile: "No, I eat these very well. Your cooking skills are really good, but these dishes are especially well cooked, and the others are also good. Kind of mean."

    "I know that you like to eat my mother's dishes, if you say you want to eat something, I will help you to pass on a message. My mother is the most filial, but your old saying, she will definitely do it for you."

    Gu Ye didn't say that it was okay, but said that the smile on the old doctor's face was a little stuck.

    Once upon a time, the old doctor had eaten the sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by Gu Yin. It was very delicious.

    Gu Yin often troubled him from the back, so naturally he couldn't let the old doctor Xianbai help him, because he knew that he didn't love those external things, otherwise he wouldn't just stay in the British government instead of serving in the imperial court , so Gu Yin did not thank him in any other way, but occasionally cooked for him at home.

    It's also a coincidence. Not long ago, the old doctor and Gu Yin mentioned a dish called oil fried double crisp.

    It was a dish that many famous diners admired when he read books.

    I always wondered how it tasted.

    Unfortunately, this dish is not from the capital city, and it can be inferred from the crispy word in the name that this dish has extremely strict requirements on the heat.

    Gu Yin was asking chefs from all over the world to enrich the special snack bar on the fourth floor. Huaiyang chef who catered to Qian Sansi's taste was one of them, and he also recruited someone who was good at Shandong cuisine.

    The cook knows how to make this dish, but he doesn't know how to cook it.

    Gu Yin is a person who knows how to do it and is willing to try, and almost always succeeds, so she tries it at home.

    The old doctor asked for something to eat. Naturally, he was curious about the steps and went into the kitchen.

    Although this is the first time for Gu Yin to do it, she has solid basic skills. After the practice is done on the chest, she first removes the grease and inner membrane from the tip of the pork belly, and then cuts a cross-shaped knife...

    The old doctor also boasted with a smile at that time: "This method is really neat, I can't tell that it is the first time to do it."

     Later, Gu Yin cut the pork belly and marinated it, and then cut the chicken gizzard.

    The old doctor stared at her, her eyes fell on the pitch-black kitchen knife in her hand, unable to laugh!

    He covered his heart and said that he was not feeling well, and quickly came out of the kitchen.

    In the back, Gu Yin really made a double crispy oil with full color and flavor. The sauce may not be the complete Shandong cuisine flavor. She has her own ingredients in it, but the pork belly And chicken gizzards, it's really fragrant and crispy, just right.

    The old doctor ate a whole plate while feeling sorry for the piece of cold iron that he had treasured for many years.

    He wouldn't let Gu Yin cook for him after that, for fear that he would feel distressed once in a while!

    The temperament of the old doctor is like that of a child. He is not someone who can hide things, and almost everything is written on his face.

    That day, Gu Yin naturally found out that something was wrong with him. When someone eats the dish they want to eat, they eat a CD full of praise, but they want to cry or laugh. Laughing?

    Wu Qingyi is the one who knows the old medical fairy best in the British government. When the family got together for dinner that day, Gu Yin asked.

    Only then did I know that the kitchen knife he gave him was made with the treasure of the old doctor fairy!

    Although it was said to be given to him by the old doctor before, but people must think that he would make a magic weapon, where would he think that he would use it to make a kitchen knife for Gu Yin?

    After the meal, the two went to apologize to the old doctor.

    In front of Gu Yin, the old doctor didn't scold Wu Qingyi, but said: "It's okay, my daughter-in-law's craftsmanship is so good, this cold iron is used by this reckless husband, how can it be used for you ?"

    But it would be more convincing if he could put down the hand covering his heart when he said that.

    The old doctor from the back heard that Wu Qingyi won an equally rare small machete during the Spring Hunting. Meat Knife, he just let it go.

    Now Gu Ye mentioned asking his mother to cook again, and the old doctor unconsciously put his hands to his heart again.

    Gu Ye was busy seeing this and added: "There should be some other things like meteorite iron, cold iron, etc. in the palace storeroom. ."

    Such an older child coaxed him in turn, and the old doctor couldn't help laughing again, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I really want to. That's what I said a long time ago. It is his right to use what is given to him or given to others. It is just an accident - your uncle's boring gourd, wooden man, even uses the trick of borrowing flowers to offer Buddha. I have been thinking about it these days, your uncle looks like that It's not easy to be a sweetheart, and being able to be used by him to please his sweetheart is not a humiliation for my precious lump."

    Gu Ye gave a thumbs up, handed it to the old man, and praised: "Master, there are a lot of adults, and the prime minister can hold a boat in his stomach. I am sincerely convinced, and I will follow your example in the future..."

     .

    Such a child, saying that he should set himself as an example, even an old doctor who is an alien, can't help but feel a little overwhelmed.

    The old doctor fairy smiled and waved: "It's just a small matter, I really didn't take it to heart. Knowing that you are busy, there is no need to make a special trip for this trivial matter."

    Gu Ye also laughed, and rubbed his hands together and said, "Master is a master of the world, how can your affairs be trivial? And it's not just for this, I have something else. , I want to trouble you."

    The old doctor looked up at him.

    I have to say that although Gu Ye and Gu Yin are not similar in birth, some small habits are like ten percent, especially this little fox-like smile!

    The old doctor was terrified by his laughter, but he had already talked so well, and it was not easy to drive people away, so he had to ask him what he wanted him to do.

    Gu Ye got two points closer and whispered a few words.

    The old doctor immortal said: "You are like your mother, you really use me as a living god!"

    "Aren't you a living fairy? Without you, how did my grandfather come here in the past years? How did my friend's mother come out of the dragon pool and tiger den of the Duke of Lu..."

    The old doctor was dazzled by his rainbow fart, and quickly stopped him, and said helplessly: "I know, let me study it for a few days... Anyway, I will tinker with it as soon as possible. "

    Gu Ye stopped talking, jumped off the stool and thanked him.

    "It's all up to you."

    Seeing him so obedient, how could the old doctor be reluctant?

    He put the chopsticks down and plunged into the pharmacy again.

    …

    Gu Ye spent the first few days in the Xiefang Hall, and naturally he also used the evening meal in Kunning Palace.

    The emperor and the empress are in harmony, and now she also accompanies Empress Zhou for three meals.

    Aside from the environment of the palace, the life style of a family is no different from that of ordinary people in the market.

    Emperor Zheng Yuan also liked this kind of atmosphere very much, and also let the palace people in Kunning Palace not need to follow the etiquette of other places and engage in false etiquette such as communication.

    Gu Ye and Lu Zhao got out of class today, and two children, one big and one small, came back holding hands.

    Empress Zhou was sitting on the kang by the window doing needlework. When she saw the two brothers, she had an unstoppable gentle smile on her face.

    Gu Ye first carried Lu Zhao onto the kang, and then sat down next to him, persuading, "Why is the mother still doing needlework at this hour? The sky is not bright, so pay close attention."

    Empress Zhou listened to his words, put the needles and threads in the basket, and let them serve two small bowls of plum soup for them to drink, and explained: "It's summer without looking at it? I'm thinking about making a shirt for the two of you."

    There are also embroiderers in the palace, but the mother makes clothes for her son, not by skill, but by a caring heart.

    Gu Ye took a sip of the warm and sour plum soup and said, "The mother will make it for Ah Zhao first, and then she will make mine first, so there's no need to do this. anxious."

    Lu Zhao immediately said, "No, be a brother first."

    It has been a while since I went to Wenhua Palace. Although Lu Zhao is still not as articulate as Lu Xu of his age, he can still talk a lot.

    In the past, this boy was very lonely and wished to occupy all the attention and attention of Queen Zhou, but now he can say such words, which is really a surprise to Queen Zhou!

    Gu Ye also looked at him encouragingly, and he continued: "I learned recently, the elders are orderly, Kong Rong gives pears!"

    Queen Zhou and Gu Ye immediately applauded the venue and praised him for his awesomeness!

    Lu Zhao's pride was broken. Later, Queen Zhou said to let the nanny take him back to wash his face and change his clothes. He also jumped off the kang and said no, "I'll do it myself!"

    Then he ran to his bedroom.

    Queen Zhou glanced at the wet nurse, and the wet nurse naturally followed.

    Gu Ye went back to Xiefang Hall to change his clothes after he came out of Wenhua Hall, so Empress Zhou did not let him move at this time, but just let the palace servants twist the veil with well water , and then take it to wipe his face.

    Gu Ye explained while wiping his face: "This kid is arguing with Axu, and they are arguing again today. Axu said he is a baby, and he needs a nurse to follow him when he is so old. , I have to go back to live with my mother. Our family's A Zhao is stupid, so he scolded him badly, and even pushed A Xu."

    This explains why Lu Zhao didn't want a wet nurse to serve him.

    Gu Ye said with a smile: "It's okay, that kid doesn't hold grudges. Later, I intervened, and one person said something to them, but neither of them disagreed. Now that A Zhao and I are back, there is Feng. Yu accompanies Axu, and Feng Yu's mother also knows that he will be able to coax him in a while."

    Empress Zhou nodded reassuringly, and asked Gu Ye, "Then what do you think of letting our family A Zhao live in Xiefang Hall?"

    Gu Ye's eyes lit up, "It's natural, don't worry, mother, I'm here."

    It is precisely now that Gu Ye is more and more responsible for the eldest brother, that Queen Zhou will take the initiative to mention this matter.

    "With you here, the mother has nothing to worry about. It's just that you don't have to worry too much. Although he is the elder brother, if Ah Zhao treats you badly, you can come back and tell the mother, and the mother will fight. His little ass."

    Gu Ye smiled and nodded.

    The mother and son continued to gossip and gossip, Gu Ye suddenly asked, "The mother, the father is not here, can I ask you something?"

    He specifically mentioned Emperor Zhengyuan, obviously what he was going to say next could not be heard.

    Empress Zhou first asked the palace servants to back away, and then said: "We are mother and son, just say something."

    Gu Ye said: "In two more months, my adoptive parents have to make up for the wedding. My uncle has prepared the dowry in a decent manner, and there is a copybook written by him in it - a pair for a lifetime. People. My adoptive mother was very happy when she found out…”

    While speaking, Gu Ye carefully looked at Queen Zhou's face.

    Empress Zhou is not stupid, she knows what he is asking.

      It's not an exaggeration to say that you are a family member. Even if your father has that kind of heart, your grandmother will not agree, and the family can't afford another mouth to eat. I have never worried about this. "

    Recalling the past, Queen Zhou couldn't help but have a gentle smile on her lips.

    Speaking, the smile stopped again, and said: "You were lost later, and I was pregnant with Ah Zhao again. At that time, your father was about to enter the capital, and many people reminded I told me that many people have moved their minds and want to send the girls in the family to your father. I was still resentful at that time, and I didn't want to worry about those bad things. That's why I have the present imperial concubine."

    "At that time, you and the father were not in harmony, then..."

    The new dynasty has been established for some time, and now there are only a lot of people who are tempted to stuff people into the palace.

    Empress Zhou knew it for a long time, she sighed softly, "It's you who asked, it's the mother who told you the truth. I know that your father is the emperor now, and which of the emperors has never been the three palaces and six courtyards? The wife of a wealthy family should be generous. As a queen, I naturally can't stop others from spreading branches and leaves for the royal family. I understand the reason, but now that I think about it, in my heart...Alie don't want to joke For mother, I'm just an ordinary little woman."

    Speaking, Queen Zhou's eyes were full of tears.

    Gu Ye hurriedly handed her a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and said, "Of course I won't laugh at my mother. Don't cry, it's my fault, you shouldn't say these things that make you sad."

    Queen Zhou shook her head, sooner or later, these problems will have to be faced, and it won't happen if her son doesn't mention it, she took Gu Ye's hand and assured: "It's okay, it's my mother's share. Seriously. If there are others around your father, I will still be the same as now. I don’t listen, I don’t think about it, but I ask, and I try to pretend I don’t know as much as possible. These days are still the same.”

    Speaking of which, Queen Zhou asked Gu Yin and Wu Qingyi whether the marriage was going well and whether she needed her help.

    Gu Ye said: "The rest is easy to say, that is, my adoptive mother has no family. She said it would be fine, but I didn't want to make her look deserted, so I was going to invite Pearl. My aunt is Feng Yu's mother, as her mother's family. If it is convenient for the mother to come..."

    "Naturally it is convenient, and I will go there as my maiden family."

    The mother and son quickly put away their sorrow when they talked about it.

    Outside the hall, Emperor Zheng Yuan, who had been standing for a while, let out a deep sigh.

    …

    After dinner, Gu Ye returned to Xiefang Hall from Kunning Palace.

    Feng Yu had coaxed Lu Xu to sleep and was waiting for him in the room.

    The two met, screened the others away, and let Xiaoluzi guard the door and speak his own words.

    Feng Yu asked: "Is it going well?"

    Gu Ye nodded, "I asked Xiaoluzi to send a sachet to Eunuch Qian, and Eunuch Qian has been wearing it for the past few days. He just accompanied the father today, and I smelled it. My son, I asked what my mother said... The father came over later, although he looked no different from usual, but today he looked at his mother with a very gentle look, and he was a little more guilty and apologetic than usual. I have heard all the words and took them to heart."

    Gu Ye let out a long breath as he spoke, which was naturally what he thought.

    The Feng family wants to put beauties around his father, so he will solve the problem from the root cause, so that Emperor Zhengyuan will no longer accept new people.

      On the one hand, he was persuaded by a group of heroes.

    Feng Guifei soon gave birth to Lu Xu, who was alive and kicking. The mother and son were precious, and they won countless favors from Emperor Zhengyuan, and even the Feng family shook.

      , even if the other party is his own father who treats him very well, Gu Ye wants to slap him twice.

    So using his father's guilt to make a fuss, Gu Ye has no burden.

    What didn't disappoint Gu Ye was that Qian Sansi later brought a piece of news, saying that after Emperor Zhengyuan returned, he directly rejected several petitions asking him to enrich the harem, and mercilessly let that A few ministers don't worry about eating radishes, and they still put their hands into his bed?

    There are a few people who are in their early stage, and you don’t need to think about it to know that no one will dare to think like this again for a while.

    "You can beat ten meetings with one force." Feng Yu praised sincerely.

    Crossing his hands behind his head, Gu Ye, who rested his hands on his head, laughed, "Where is this going? I think this person who eats radishes and cares about them is too busy and busy. Just be busy."

    As he looked at Feng Yu, Feng Yu naturally understood, knowing that he still had second-hand preparations, so let him speak.

    The next day, Gu Ye went back to the British palace, and when he returned to the palace, he brought Feng Yu a small porcelain bottle, "I'll leave the rest to you."

    Feng Yu took it with a smile, and replied "Okay".

    When the Wenhua Palace was closed, Feng Yu returned to Feng's house.

    He only came back a few times a month. If he left it to someone else's house, the elders in the family would have prepared delicious food and drink long ago, looking forward to it.

    But the Feng family is naturally not like that. Qin Shi is sitting with Lu Yuanqi, talking affectionately.

    I heard that Feng Yu came to greet him, and Qin Shi suddenly remembered that today was the day he returned home.

    Lu Yuanqi and Feng Yuan got married. As a son of man, Feng Yu naturally came to participate.

    It was just the next day that it was dark, so he rushed back to the palace for class, and he never came back after that, and he and Lu Yuanqi hadn't officially met.

    But because of his status as Lie Wang's companion, no one dares to say anything about him.

    The Qin family let him in, patted Lu Yuanqi on the back of the hand and said, "It just so happens that you haven't met yet, so I'm right here today, and ask Ayu to honor your stepmother. Tea."

    Lu Yuanqi was annoyed by Feng Yu's slow treatment of her, but nodded obediently.

    Not long after, Feng Yu came in, first he was stunned by Qin's dress-his grandmother used to wear gold and silver, but now it's even more amazing, at home He wears a whole pair of old jadeite with a gold head, several thumb-thick gold bracelets on his wrists, and several dazzling gemstone rings on his hands.

    It makes everyone feel tired for her!

    These things Feng Yu had never seen her wear before, so you don't need to think about them to know that they are not the original things of the Duke of Lu.

    Looking at Qin's affection for Lu Yuanqi, he knew even more that Lu Yuanqi was filial.

    Feng Yu laughed in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, she politely saluted and said hello.

    The Qin family asked him to serve tea to Lu Yuanqi, and he took the tea cup from Zheng's mother and presented it to Lu Yuanqi, but instead of calling her mother, she called him "Mrs.".

    Lu Yuanqi was only six or seven years older than him. It was really embarrassing for him to call Lu Yuanqi's mother, but Qin Shi didn't hold on to it.

    Feng Yu didn't stay in Qin's yard any longer, and went back to his place on the pretext of doing his homework.

    Thinking of the mother-daughter demeanor of Qin Shi and Lu Yuanqi she just saw, Feng Yu felt a little disgusted.

    After drinking a few cold teas, Feng Yu finally suppressed the nausea, and then he asked a servant to quietly call for a maid.

    The maid looked dull and honest, but in fact she was loyal and reliable. She was the one who Ge Zhuer had communicated with Feng Yu before he left the residence, so that he could rely on her with confidence.

    She doesn't have any skills, she just learned some simple skills of making a fire and cooking with Ge Zhuer.

    Although Ge Zhuer later became the lady of the country, but Ge Zhuer's own position is not stable, this servant girl naturally has no future, and is still doing low-level work in the big kitchen.

    Feng Yu asked the valet to guard the door, and then had a chat with the maid, and then handed over the porcelain bottle that Gu Ye gave him.

    The servant girl didn't know whether she was excited or nervous, her whole body was shivering, but she still promised: "Young master, don't worry, this old slave will definitely put this medicine into the mouth of the old lady!"

    Feng Yu was still drinking tea and choked on hearing this, "What did Aunt Jiang say? This medicine is not for my grandmother. It is for Aunt Chun."

    "Ah?" Aunt Jiang stopped trembling, and asked naively, "Isn't your son trying to avenge our wife?"

    Feng Yu said with a smile: "My mother is very good now, hundreds of times better than when she was in this house, what revenge is there? And this is not poison..."

    After listening to Feng Yu's explanation, Aunt Jiang realized that she would be wrong and made a big red face.

    Feng Yu finally said: "Auntie can do it with confidence. When this matter is over, my mother has settled down. It's time to take you out."

    Aunt Jiang responded quickly, stuffed the porcelain bottle into her arms, and trotted back to the big kitchen.
