Chapter 22
Chapter 21:
Tang Yunian showed full of momentum, but the place he ran towards was not the Princess’s main courtyard.
“Master Consort, are you hungry?” Qiu Lan asked because she knew that the road ahead led to the kitchen.
“There’s still an hour before dinner,” Tang Yunian said, “I’ll take a look.” It was the first time that Qiulan entered the kitchen with Tang Yunian, and she immediately said, “Prince Consort, you are really thoughtful. !”
It was not the first time that the kitchen master and maid had seen the concubine come in. They were used to it and didn’t panic at all. They were busy in their own positions.
“The concubine is here again.” Lao Li, who was chopping vegetables, asked with a smile.
“Yeah.” Tang Yunian nodded. She and Lao Li had discussed some delicacies together before, but she didn’t come here today to cook them.
Halfway through the hour, Bai Zhi, who had been standing at the door for a long time, hadn’t seen the figure of the concubine. Just as she was about to go to urge her, she saw the concubine coming from a distance.
“Baizhi.” Tang Yunian noticed her at once, “Why are you standing here?”
“Master Consort,” Bai Zhi hurriedly greeted her in the courtyard, “Princess has been waiting for you in the house for a long time.”
“I’ll go in right now.” Tang Yunian glanced at the new clothes he had gone back to the yard to change into, feeling a lot more relaxed, Shi Shiran walked in.
“Princess.” Entering the room, Wei Yubing held a scroll of books, Yunxiang gently fanned behind her.
Putting down the scroll, Wei Yubing smiled immediately, “The concubine is here.”
“But disturbing the princess’ reading?” Tang Yunian asked.
“Where?” Wei Yubing shook his head, “The left is just some boring scrolls. Hurry up and sit down, Yunxiang, is it time for dinner?” Yunxiang answered yes without looking at the time.
The maid walked in with plates of delicate side dishes, Wei Yubing picked up the dishes after washing, and saw half of the dishes on the table were different from before, and smiled slightly, “Today, I changed the pattern again, I heard that the concubine was in the kitchen recently. , wouldn’t it be the concubine’s idea?”
“Princess really can guess.” Tang Yunian laughed. She tried a few. She only tried cooking after her grandmother died, but the dishes she made were often unsatisfactory. Now that she has changed the time and place, the feeling is not the same. She tasted it by herself, so she dared to bring it to the princess.
“The concubine’s ingenuity, even a woman in this palace will be ashamed.” Wei Yubing said ashamed.
“As the saying goes, there should always be one of the two in the family who can take charge. If the princess likes it, how about I do it for the princess in the future?” Tang Yunian said with a smile. The dishes that I think are okay, “Princess, try it.”
“It looks good.” Wei Yubing paused while holding his chopsticks, then said, “Then let me try it?”
Tang Yunian looked forward to watching her enter, but he was a little uneasy in his heart. After all, this is her first time to cook here in the true sense. In the past, she ran to the kitchen either to find a snack or to tell Master Li about the recipe. She didn’t touch the spring water with her ten fingers, so she just stood and watched from a distance.
“Very good.” Wei Yubing took another piece of fish after tasting it, and Tang Yunian was relieved until he raised his eyebrows.
“The concubine should believe in her own cooking skills,” Wei Yubing smiled and said, “What’s your concern about this skill?”
This is not the same.
Tang Yunian smiled reservedly. Before cooking, no one had tasted it, and even her friends were not lucky enough to eat.
“The concubine’s cooking skills are so superb,” Wei Yubing said again, “I must have often cooked before? The last time I heard from the concubine that I just cooked it at home a few times, I was really humble.”
She is really not humble, and no one judges her, how can she know whether it is good or bad. But the princess is so satisfied, Tang Yunian is a little proud, it seems that he will finally have some skills in this princess mansion in the future.
As the saying goes, to grab a person’s heart is to grab her stomach. Falling in love with the princess is a high-risk behavior, so she doesn’t need it. After all, she has to have a bit of strength to show her ability!
“The day after tomorrow, I’m going to my mother’s place. Does the concubine need anything special?” Wei Yubing asked after wiping the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief after dinner.
“No.” Tang Yunian said immediately, “Princess don’t have to worry, mother is fine at home, nothing is missing.”
Tang Yunian would go to see it later, but he didn’t spend much time in the Concubine’s Mansion each time. Qian Fanglan should have pity her son’s new marriage, and always push Tang Yunian to the princess’ mansion whenever she has the chance.
It happened that Tang Yunian was afraid of revealing any flaws, so naturally he couldn’t ask for it, and took the opportunity to return to the princess’ mansion. It’s just that Tang Yunian has to stay in the Princess’ Mansion in the first month of the wedding, and he can stay in the Concubine’s Mansion in the second month.
“Mother is always a little lonely in the Concubine’s Mansion,” Wei Yubing said, “After this month, Ben Gong will definitely visit from time to time.”
When the princess said this, Tang Yunian couldn’t help but think of the scene when the princess went last time. If she really stayed there for a little longer, Qian Fanglan would definitely feel uncomfortable. It’s just that Tang Yunian couldn’t say it. Moreover, the princess is gentle and generous. If Qian Fanglan puts aside her identity, she will definitely be able to get along well with the princess, so Tang Yunian is not too worried.
The sky was getting dark, Yunxiang and Baizhi finished cleaning up the leftovers, leaving Tang Yunian and Wei Yubing alone in the house. The house was still the same house, but Tang Yunian was suddenly nervous.
How can she open her mouth in a while? Tang Yunian sat on the stool and clenched his hands tightly, trying to calm down.
Tang Yunian didn’t notice that Wei Yubing was staring at her all the time when he remained calm. Her concubine was from Yueqing, and in the south of Shangyu, Wei Yubing had been in the south for a long time.
In her impression, the north is a land of wealth, while the south is far from the capital and relatively remote, and its economy is not as good as the north. Tang Yunian came from a poor family again, but unlike the Qian clan she met last time, her consort, whether it was her father, queen, mother or other courtiers, was still able to handle it with ease.
This may have something to do with the fact that she has been out all the year round while the Qian family has been in the deep house compound. But some parts of the concubine are really not suitable for a poor child.
No matter what, there will never be an embarrassing wedding night, Tang Yunian finally opened his mouth.
“Princess, what do you do at night on weekdays?”
“Left is just reading a book or playing chess and playing the piano.” Wei Yubing smiled.
Tang Yunian smiled on his face, and hehehe in his heart, he could only read a book, but he couldn’t play chess or play the piano.
“Then,” Tang Yunian gathered up his courage and asked again, “what is the princess going to do tonight?”
“It’s fine.” Wei Yubing replied with a smile.
While speaking, she was still paying attention to the consort she had chosen. Male body and female appearance, delicate and delicate facial features, clear and beautiful, and people are as delicate as women. Compared to other men, he looks weak and windy, as if a gust of wind can blow it away.
But no one doubts that the concubine is not a man. First, it is preconceived, and secondly, it is not that there is no male or female appearance. The concubine has no problem from voice to body shape.
It can’t be seen, but what she touches today won’t be fake. If it was really a woman disguised as a man, Wei Yubing smiled playfully. It really adds a touch of light to the boring days!
The author has something to say:
Tang Yunian tried to discuss it in his heart. Princess, I will cook you a meal. No, I can cook it in the future. How about we split rooms at night?
