Second Master Xue of the Red Chamber has space

Chapter 436 Sigh
One thing Yuan Chun has always admired about Concubine Nian is that she can have many different faces.In front of the prince, she is a gentle and quiet talented woman. In front of Fujin, she is a slightly flamboyant concubine. In front of concubines who are not as high as her, she can be domineering and outrageous. I really don't know which one. The face is the real concubine Nian.

Moreover, she is also an extremely smart woman.She knows how to guess Prince Yong's preferences, and also knows how to please this man.Maybe her guess is not right every time, and Prince Yong's words are not always remembered by her, but she is better than two words, heart.

Regarding Prince Yong's matter, no matter how trivial it is, she never pretends to others.Just like this bowl of pearl balls, she only came back to learn after seeing Prince Yong ate a few more mouthfuls at the last palace banquet.

It's actually not that easy to do this well.Glutinous rice flour is not as easy to control as flour, and pearl balls are not like glutinous rice balls. Since Prince Yong likes to eat them, he asked the imperial chef who handled them how to prepare them.This kind of balls is added with honey water when kneading the dough. How much to add, when to add it, and even how high the temperature of the kneading dough is, can only be known by experience.

Prince Yong is not a cook, but he also knows that this pearl ball was once the favorite of the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, but even the Empress Dowager said that it takes a lot of effort to make this ball.It can be seen that the concubine Nian's efforts.

Therefore, even though Prince Yong was already full of food and wine at this time, he didn't really want to eat sticky food, but he still took it and ate a few mouthfuls in a face-saving manner.

"Well, you are determined. You can learn to make such a difficult dish. The most important thing is that it is sweet and not sticky in the mouth. It can be seen that you have worked hard. Not bad."

Concubine Nian saw that the prince praised her in front of so many people, she didn't feel a little bit pleased, but said: "It's all a matter of the concubine's job."

Fujin looked at her meaningfully, and then praised her: "Since entering the mansion, Concubine Nian has been very effective in helping me manage the government affairs, and getting along with all the sisters is also very pleasant, but the kindness you have received is also considered to be good." There are too many, and it is time to give birth to a son for the prince. You have to work hard this year, but don't disappoint my expectations. Do you understand?"

After hearing this, Concubine Nian's eyes flickered several times, but she was full of happiness: "Yes, my concubine would like to follow Fujin's teachings."

After dinner, Prince Yong went to Concubine Nian's yard and said he wanted to spend a good night with her to thank her for taking the trouble to prepare dishes for him.

In Yuanchun's courtyard, Baoqin was not convinced and said: "Relying on pearl balls for one night, I robbed the master's favor again. That year's side concubine was so arrogant and domineering on weekdays, Pian Fujin never exposed her true colors in front of the prince, and even encouraged her Want a child. This is already so troublesome without a child, if she really gave birth to a son and a half for the prince, why don't she demolish the Yong Palace?"

Yuan Chun smiled and said: "Baoqin, I know you want to pack up for me, but you have been with me for so long, shouldn't it be time to learn how to calm down? Think about it, Fujin has never rubbed sand in his eyes Why can she tolerate this year's side concubine so much? Besides, if you want to be unknown, you have to do nothing. No matter how well this year's side concubine hides it, people will always know what she has done, even the prince is in his heart. Well, why didn’t anyone punish her for her crime?”

Baoqin thought for a while: "Master, you mean... it's all because of his brother Nian Gengyao's face?"

Yuan Chun smiled and said: "It seems that you haven't forgotten what I said. Nian Gengyao is really capable."

As soon as he talked about this Baoqin, he was not convinced: "Cut~ What's the use of relying on elder brother's ability? The most important thing in fighting for favor in the back house is to win the prince's heart. Besides, does she have an elder brother? Our Jia family doesn't have one." Is it a man? No matter how bad it is, the Xue family, the master’s two aunts, aren’t they also very proud? I heard that this time the second master Hong has won the fame of Juren again, and even the prince is full of praise Well. According to the slaves, Second Lord Hong will grow up to be a servant of the prince sooner or later, so don't worry about it, master."

Yuan Chun sighed: "What's the use of praising again? You will say that it will take time, how old is Hong'er this year? Besides, I don't know whether his surname is Xue and whether he will be with me. I still hope Second Brother Zhu and Baoyu, these two brothers of mine can have some peace, but this time the eldest brother will...I really don't know what to say."

Baoqin smiled and said: "Master, don't be discouraged. People say that taking the imperial examination is not so easy. You have to be more patient. Besides, even if Master Zhu can't do it, there is still Master Bao! Back then you taught Master Bao how to read and write Didn't you say in the past that this son is extraordinary and will become a great weapon in the future? As long as the second master Bao grows up and has a reputation, he will definitely be able to help the master. Her concubine is just lucky, and she has someone who can be used by the prince. It’s just my elder brother, but what kind of person is that Nian Gengyao? Others don’t know, but don’t we know? Isn’t it with the uncle... What else is the master worried about?”

Yuan Chun sighed, and sat in front of the window in a daze until the lights were blown before he woke up. He said leisurely, "I'm just afraid that she will be really lucky and be able to conceive a child. I'm afraid that uncle won't have time to collect Nian Gengyao's information." The evidence of the crime, she is about to surpass all the women in the backyard of Prince Yong's Mansion..."

The matter of Shuiyue Temple has come to an end.When Qin Zhong came here to visit Xue's family, she had already changed into Xue's servant girl's clothes, and she also wore a beautiful hat on her head.

"This... Nenger, you are so beautiful!"

Isn't it beautiful?Although the maid's clothes are not expensive and gorgeous, they are still much better than the gray and white robe worn by the nun. She is at the same age as a flower, and she should be dressed delicately and gorgeously.

Seeing that Qin Zhong's eyeballs were about to fall out, Xue Hong was too ashamed to raise her head.He coughed quickly: "Ahem, Jingqing, I called you here today because I have something serious to tell you."

Only then did Qin Zhong shift his gaze away from Chi-chier, and hurriedly pulled up his robe to kneel, Xue Hong's eyes were quick, and he helped him up: "Don't kneel, don't kneel, you know what happened from the beginning to the end of this matter, and I also hit it right , if you really want to thank me, I'm afraid I'm going to Xie Prince Yong, I can't bear your kneeling."

Qin Zhong refused, and even though he could not kneel, he stood up and made a proper bow: "Second brother Hong, thank you for your kindness, Qin Zhong has recorded your kindness."

Xue Hong sighed: "Don't be busy, just wait for me to finish speaking, and then thank me later."
