Qiao Mingyu thought to herself that she was not so easy to coax, so she was given away with a sour plum soup.
However, the sour plum soup prepared by Gu Lian is really delicious. After drinking well water, it is cold and refreshing. Qiao Mingyu couldn't hold back and drank two more glasses, and lay down beside Gu Lian contentedly, resting her head on her thigh, as if begging for caress.
This is not just coaxing.
Gu Lian rubbed the acupuncture points on her head while holding back a smile, and picked up the book with the other hand and continued to read.
This year, the beginning of summer is in April, and the fourth day of May is earlier than Xiaoman. Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival. The weather in this season is hot, especially in a city like Huaijing, which is known as the "stove". Fortunately, May is not a midsummer, and the sunshine in the morning is alright, so you can bask in more. After lunch, it was very scorching.
In midsummer, even in the early morning, it would be very sultry. Last year, Gu Nian had a very uncomfortable life. At that time, she was still a prostitute who was not very favored. Fortunately, she has internal strength and is more resistant to cold and heat. In addition to the existence of the ice silkworm baby, she does not feel too hot. The portion of ice this year is quite sufficient, so just use ice to cool off the heat.
"The emperor said that he would find a serious 'mother' for the crown prince." Qiao Mingyu said with his eyes closed.
Gu Lian raised her eyebrows: "He wants to marry the queen?"
"That's not it." Qiao Mingyu rolled over and sat up, got together with Gu Lian, and picked up the fruit from the plate to eat. Eat a piece by yourself, feed Gu Lian a piece. Gu Lian simply fell on top of her and leaned against her, so she didn't have to sit upright by herself, it was very comfortable.
It was a little hot, but both of them were wearing clothes made of ice silk, which exuded a slight coolness, so it wasn't too hot.
Qiao Mingyu watched her finish eating a piece of watermelon, and then said: "He thinks that he and his sister-in-law, two big men, can't teach children, and almost taught them to be the devil of the world. In the past few months, I have found my mother to specifically tune-teach that kid. After a while, it looked like a man, and he knew a lot of etiquette, but that was just watching. They felt that they still needed to find a careful and patient woman to teach the prince some other things, such as the principles of being a man. "
Although the father can teach these things, but the father and son are like friends. He listened very well to Lingsu's words, and was very well behaved in front of Lingsu, but the problem was that Lingsu himself was not reliable and could not be counted on at all.
The other servants are even worse. The identity of the master and the servant is too different. They can only persuade them. If Qiao Ancheng doesn't listen, they can't do anything about it.
"In that case, it's not easy to pick people." Gu Lian shook his head.
If you choose a young girl's family, not to mention whether the children who have never been married can be taught well, even if they can be taught well, there is no guarantee that they will not have some crooked thoughts. The prince taught him all by himself. Does that mean that the emperor is interested in him and wants to marry her as the queen after his filial piety? Those women are especially smart and annoying.
If you choose someone who is already married, it will be difficult to pick one that you like. First of all, you have to restrain Qiao Ancheng, and secondly, you can't be too cautious. In front of Qiao Ancheng, how could Qiao Ancheng listen to her? And they hope that the object can make up for Qiao Ancheng's missing maternal love, which alone stops most women.
Qiao Mingyu nodded in agreement, then she looked at Gu Lian without speaking.
Gu Lian had a bad premonition in her heart: "You and your brother suggested to let me come?"
"It's not what I said." Of course Qiao Mingyu wouldn't say such a thing, she told Gu Lian honestly, "It was suggested by my sister-in-law."
No wonder she suddenly mentioned this topic today, Qiao Mingyu was not a gossip person in the past.
Thinking of Qiao Ancheng's little brat, Gu Lian had a headache. That child is actually quite cute, not very bearish, just a little noisy. In fact, in front of outsiders, he is very capable of holding the air of a prince, and no one will think that he is a prince. However, Gu Lian really had never raised a child, and was afraid that it would not be good.
"If you're not willing, I'll reject it for you." In Qiao Mingyu's heart, Gu Lian's feelings are more important.
Although she regards Qiao Ancheng as her own son, Gu Lian has a higher status in her heart than Qiao Ancheng, so she is more willing to treat Gu Lian better.
Gu Lian thought for a while, then shook his head: "No, I agree. I also like that child very much. He is very clever. What did your emperor think, have you figured out the specific operation method?"
Can Qiao Ancheng accept the words of a godmother suddenly? And Qiao An is living in the palace, how does Gu Lian teach him to enter the palace every day? Still living in the palace
"I don't know, I'll ask back." Qiao Mingyu was very happy, Gu Lian liked Qiao Ancheng, she was afraid that her nephew and Gu Lian would have a bad relationship. After all, Qiao Ancheng acted a bit bearish before, but in fact he was not so noisy, he just liked to stare at his father, and like an ordinary boy, he liked to climb trees and fish from time to time.
As soon as Qiao Mingyu thought about it, she couldn't sit still, and wanted to go to the palace to communicate with her brother, and discuss this matter early. Gu Lian pulled her funny and took her to the main courtyard.
"Don't rush for a moment, even if it's made, it won't be implemented so quickly. Use lunch first, I will make rice dumplings with Meixiang and the others in the afternoon, and the pickled duck eggs will be ready soon. Would you like to try it?"
The handy Lanxiang also made a colorful network to hold the duck eggs, and then hung it around her neck. But this is what children do, and they naturally won't hang up. Lan Xiang also just hit some habitually, and then turned around and distributed it to the little girls in the Gu residence.
"Zongzi? Salted duck eggs?" Qiao Mingyu's eyes lit up.
Gu Lian's cooking skills are very good. The dumpling stuffing and pickled duck eggs she personally prepared must taste very good. It's a pity that the zongzi will not be eaten until tomorrow, but the duck eggs can be eaten today.
"What kind of stuffed dumplings are there?" Qiao Mingyu asked Gu Lian.
Gu Lian originally wanted to hide it from her, but she was pestered for a long time, and she had to tell her: "There are several kinds, meat, bacon, egg yolk, red dates and bean paste, you remember to come and try them tomorrow. , to see which one you like."
Listening to this makes me drool. What Qiao Mingyu looks forward to most every year is the Dragon Boat Festival, because she thinks zongzi and dumplings are the most delicious holiday specialties. Especially the meat dumplings, the glutinous rice soaked in the gravy tastes delicious, Qiao Mingyu can eat two large ones at a time, even if it is packed with fat, she will not dislike it. This was probably the only fat she was willing to eat.
So, originally Gu Lian was pulling Qiao Mingyu away, but now it became Qiao Mingyu pulling Gu Lian away. But she didn't know the way, she was stunned when she walked to the intersection, and Gu Lian was amused.
The author has something to say: I checked the data for a long time, and later found that I remembered it wrongly. I didn't have that statement (... ) and wasted a long time, so this chapter didn't have time to write enough 3000, only 2000+ _(:з」∠)_
