Wen Tingzhou has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is not a frail scholar. The little test in the examination room is not worth mentioning to him.
But it's better to eat better, especially Ruan Ruan's wish. After Wen Tingzhou finished eating a bowl of steaming delicious instant noodles gracefully, his heart also warmed up.
"Zhang Qing, you can soak a piece of dry fried noodles to taste."
Zhang Qing who was at the side swallowed his saliva secretly for an unknown number of times. The noodle was so fragrant. I don't know what spices were put in it. It was so fragrant.
Now when he suddenly heard that the young master wanted to give him a piece of fried noodles, Zhang Qing smiled happily, and after thanking him, he took a piece of noodles and left excitedly.
Wen Tingzhou shook his head and laughed. He looked at the big clean bowl in front of him, his eyes were slightly tender.
When Ruan Xi received Wen Tingzhou's reply, seeing his feedback on the dry fried noodles, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
As long as Brother Tingzhou likes it.
She asked the cook in the small kitchen to continue making fried noodles, and the old lady in the house and others sent someone over to inquire about it, and Ruan Xi didn't hide it from them.
Mrs. Zhang didn't care when she learned about it. Now she is busy getting rid of Ruan Sanniang, a confidant who is a serious problem. After returning from Mrs. Wen's birthday banquet, Mrs. Zhang made frequent small moves in private, but Ruan Sanniang didn't even have a serious illness. alive and kicking.
Zhang's face was gloomy, obviously unable to accept this result.
"Didn't you say that you watched her eat it with your own eyes, why is there nothing wrong with it?"
A look of fear flashed in Gao Mama's eyes, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead: "Madam, do you think the fake Third Miss has any weird abilities?"
Zhang's pupils shrank slightly, and the fingertips holding the teacup turned white: "Strange ability?"
"That's right, if it wasn't for the servant who specially increased the dose of the medicine, the fake Third Young Lady obviously drank it all, so why would nothing happen?" The more Gao Mama thought about it, the paler her face became.
Mrs. Zhang's heart was shocked, it was too scary and dangerous for the counterfeit to have such inhuman and strange abilities.
She gritted her teeth: "It seems that prescribing medicine is useless. I remember that she broke her leg before, so I can only send someone to kill her."
Hearing Madam Gao's words, Mama Gao's fear of the fake third lady faded a little. Yes, the fake third lady is not invulnerable.
"Ma'am, you can't do anything in the mansion, do you want someone to lure the third lady out of the mansion?"
"Well, you handle this matter, and this matter must not be known to third parties, you know?" The counterfeit has strange abilities, and Zhang can't even expose himself.
Gao Mama repeatedly swore to keep it secret.
In fact, she was also afraid in her heart that if she missed again, the fake third lady would take revenge on her if she found out.
Ruan Xi didn't know that Zhang's full attention was on getting rid of Ruan Sanniang, and the dry fried noodles she made soon spread to Ruan Sanniang's ears, and Ruan Sanniang, who was bored, began to feel active.
"Yaohong, what do you think the fried noodles made by Simei look like?"
Yaohong shook her head: "I don't know, I just heard that the dry fried noodles made by the fourth lady are very fragrant, and a lot of spices should be added."
Dry Fried Noodles... Dry Fried Noodles...
It sounds like fried food. Can fried food be delicious
Ruan Sanniang murmured in her heart that she heard that the fourth sister came up with it specially to make Mr. Wen eat better in the examination room.
Tsk tsk, this is the magic of love.
Ruan Sanniang curled her lips, the fourth younger sister was too concerned about Mr. Wen, she seemed to be deeply involved, she was a little curious about the dry fried noodles that the fourth younger sister made.
"Yaohong, let's go to Chengxin Garden."
Yaohong: "..."
"Miss, did you forget about the jewelry?"
Ruan Sanniang was thick-skinned, and it didn't hurt to be scolded by the old lady Zhang because of the jewelry, she looked righteous and confident.
"Didn't the old lady and mother send a lot of good things to make up for the fourth sister? Does she still hate me? No one is careless."
Speaking of Ruan Sanniang, it's difficult to understand, isn't she the fiancee of Mr. Wen? Everyone in the house offered up the fourth sister as a bodhisattva, for fear that she would be wronged.
Hmph, the mother is also true, knowing that the fourth sister will not be able to have children in the future, she still pretends to care, and asks the fourth sister how she is, is she tired
But Ruan Sanniang didn't care when she thought that the old mistresses always pretended to be magnanimous and virtuous.
Yaohong twitched the corners of her mouth when she heard Miss's shameless words, she nodded her head in agreement when she clearly broke the jewelry on purpose.
"Miss is right."
"Then let's go, let's go to Chengxin Garden."
Ruan Sanniang excitedly took her maid to Chengxin Garden.
Ruan Xi is learning how to make soup with Mama Yang in the small kitchen. Mama Yang has been in the imperial dining room of the palace for several years. art.
This is the treatment of the original heroine. The heroine likes food. As the heroine's confidant mother, in addition to being proficient in house fighting, of course she must have good cooking skills.
Ruan Xi sighed in her heart about her good luck.
In the small kitchen, one teaches wholeheartedly while the other learns seriously. The same soup recipe, the same steps, the soup made is also different.
The soup made by Mama Yang is extremely delicious, and the soup made by Ruan Xi is actually good, after all, she can cook, but compared with Mama Yang's soup, ahem, it is simply incomparable.
"Mother Yang, the soup you make is really delicious. It would be great if I could drink it every day."
Mother Yang smiled and said that the soup she made was far worse than that of the old imperial chef who taught her.
Ruan Xi: "..."
Mama Yang is so humble. She remembered that it was mentioned in the book that Mama Yang was quite talented in cooking, and the hostess especially liked the food made by Mama Yang.
There is a difference between seeing with your eyes and feeling with your own eyes.
Mother Yang's soup is so delicious, she doesn't want to drink her own soup now.
"Mother Yang, after drinking your soup, I don't think I'm suitable for learning to cook soup."
"Miss, it's the first time you cook soup and you have achieved such results. I think you are very talented in cooking." Mother Yang said with a smile.
Ruan Xi: "..."
She was brought about by the experience of her previous life, no matter how much she learned, she would still be the same. Ruan Xi didn't want to make a fuss, but Mama Yang didn't believe it, and said that she had a talent for cooking.
Ruan Xi was completely speechless.
Just as Ruan Xi finished the soup made by Yang's mother, Suyu's voice came from outside the small kitchen.
"Miss, Miss San is here."
Ruan Xi frowned, not wanting to see Ruan Sanniang at all: "Suyu, tell Third Sister that I'm busy now and don't see anyone."
"Oh, fourth sister, what are you up to, I heard that you have made a kind of delicious fried noodles, so I came here to have a look."
Of course Ruan Sanniang knew that she and her fourth sister had a bad relationship, and it was normal to be rejected, so she barged in directly.
"What about the fried noodles?"
Ruan Xi looked at Ruan Sanniang indifferently and remained silent.
Ruan Sanniang frowned and said unhappily: "Sister Si, you are still angry about me breaking your jewelry, right? I didn't do it on purpose. The old lady and mother both scolded me and gave you a lot of goodies." Things to make up for, no matter how we are sisters, can't you expose this matter?"
Yaohong: "..."
Ruan Xi laughed angrily, Ruan Sanniang's cheekiness was far beyond her imagination.
"Third sister, I have nothing to say to you, please leave."
Ruan Sanniang's complexion suddenly turned ugly.
"Fourth sister, I didn't expect you to be such a petite person. Since you don't welcome me, I won't come here again. I hope you won't beg me one day."
After finishing speaking, Ruan Sanniang sneered, and left angrily, isn't it just dry fried noodles, treat her as a rarity, and wait for her to make delicious instant noodles, whichever side is colder.
Yaohong hurriedly saluted and left, and hurriedly chased after her.
Ruan Xi didn't care about Ruan Sanniang's words, it would be better if Ruan Sanniang didn't come.
On the side, Mama Yang couldn't say enough about the Third Miss, the eldest daughter of the uncle's mansion.
The matter of Ruan Sanniang was just a small episode, the day after tomorrow is the high-profile exam, and Wen Tingzhou will enter the examination room tomorrow, Ruan Xi gave Wen Tingzhou all the dry fried noodles made by the cook, and at the same time told him to remember to bring the fire mask Herbal tea, so as not to get angry.
Qingshan Academy has suspended classes for the past few days, and Ruan Yuwen plans to take Ruan Xi out of the house tomorrow to watch the grand occasion.
Ruan Xi was very interested in this, and agreed to go out with Ruan Yuwen, maybe he might have the opportunity to see Wen Tingzhou. The ancient imperial examination was much more rigorous and difficult than the modern college entrance examination, and it was also a high-profile event. , are the busiest times.
On the second day, the weather was not beautiful, and it actually began to drizzle, bringing a burst of coolness.
After tidying up, Ruan Xi took Suyu and Suzhu into the carriage and went out of the house with Ruan Yuwen.
As soon as they left the mansion, Mrs. Zhang immediately sent someone to inform Ruan Sanniang of the news.
Ruan Sanniang was furious, the elder brother was just as mercenary as the scumbag father, to please the fourth younger sister but forgot about her, the biological younger sister.
Ruan Sanniang immediately went to the main courtyard to find Mrs. Zhang and yelled that she would go out of the mansion to watch the fun, but Mrs. Zhang disagreed, saying that all the expert guards that could be transferred from the mansion had gone to protect Ruan Yuwen and Ruan Xi, and she was worried that she would be in danger when she left the mansion.
Ruan Sanniang didn't take it seriously, she had often left the mansion in her previous life, and she had never encountered any danger, so she stalked Mrs. Zhang to leave the mansion.
Mrs. Zhang was secretly delighted that the counterfeit goods had taken the bait, so she reluctantly agreed to her, and even instructed her to do so.
Ruan Sanniang was impatient to hear this, so she found an excuse and ran away in a hurry.
Zhang sneered inwardly.
She persuaded her not to leave the mansion in front of the maid in the main courtyard. Everyone knew that Ruan Sanniang insisted on leaving the mansion. If something happened, she would ask for it, wouldn't she
The gate of the Tribute Court was already crowded with people, and the candidates who participated in the examination were waiting in line to be called and checked to enter the Tribute Court. There were also many officials in official uniforms with swords around their waists to maintain order.
Ruan Xi's carriage was parked not far away, and through the curtain of the car, he looked at the long queues of people holding oil-paper umbrellas in the rain and mist. Among these people, there were people in their forties or fifties, Ruan Xi was deeply moved.
In fact, if you win the exam, you can find a small official position, but there are always people who want to reach the sky in one step.
Suyu and Suzhu opened the corner of the curtain and looked around. There were many people who came to see the fun like them, and Ruan Xi saw several familiar carriage marks.
"Hey, this servant saw Wen's carriage, could it be that Mr. Wen has come?" Suyu said in surprise, with a hint of excitement in her voice.
Ruan Xi's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but lift the curtain of the car to look around. When he saw Zhang Qing coming out of the carriage, Ruan Xi immediately determined that it was Wen Tingzhou.
