Seeing that her attitude is so determined, the servants can't stop her too much.
He led her towards the small kitchen in the courtyard.
Murong Xi's peripheral vision always glanced in the direction of the window.
It wasn't until I saw two figures passing by that the anger in my heart felt a little better. .??.
At least, she still listened to herself.
"Your Highness Xi? Your Highness?"
Lian Sheng, who was reporting the preparations to Murong Xi, called him twice.
"Keep talking, I heard everything."
Lian Sheng nodded and continued what he left unfinished.
Murong Xi glanced at the manuscripts on the table that were said to have been drawn by a certain woman herself.
Now it seems like it's not that bad. Maybe you can consider giving her a chance.
"I wonder, Miss, what kind of refreshments should I prepare?"
The small kitchen is kept clean and tidy.
All kinds of tea were put away and placed on the shelves.
Lin Mengya has a great skill of photographic memory. She has already learned about the tea culture of Weiguo in the book.
Subconsciously, he searched for similar tea based on Long Tianyu's past taste.
On the small stove burning silver charcoal, the boiling water was steaming.
The servant looked at Miss Gong's movements in one go, as if she was used to doing this kind of work at home.
But tea belongs to the art of elegance, and most of the ladies from aristocratic families who really stand out are good at it.
He can only help with some small favors.
After a while, the fragrance of four cups of tea overflowed, each with a different fragrance, and they were placed on wooden plates.
"Miss, you are really good at craftsmanship. This tea is absolutely perfect."
The servant's surname is Xu, who was originally Dr. Tea hired by the Lian family with a large sum of money.
Seeing someone who knew tea ceremony so well, he couldn't help but praise him.
"I'm just used to it. Could you please find me something else?"
"Miss, please tell me."
Lin Mengya thought for a while and said.
"I want four sour plums, a plate of salted osmanthus, four charcoal-roasted ginkgo fruits, and a plate of white sugar soft cake."
Dr. Tea didn't quite understand what she meant and thought it was a snack to go with tea.
These things were not difficult to find. When the aroma of tea was the strongest, Lin Mengya and Doctor Tea returned to the flower hall with their things.
"I'll take it in, thank you very much."
After taking the tray from Dr. Tea's hand and nodding and smiling to thank him, someone had already opened the curtain and let her in.
Inside, the discussion is still ongoing.
I have to say that without her around, Long Tianyu has somewhat restrained himself.
It's just that Gong Wu and Lian Xing don't look very good. They think it's the dead boy in her family. Human fault.
That's all, whoever let this matter happen because of her, just coax him and he can do a good deed that day.
"Here comes the tea."
Murong Xi knew it from the moment she appeared.
However, he refused to look at her, but he could hear her footsteps clearly.
"Why are you so slow? It seems that Miss Gong is not used to serving others."
It was this tone that made her want to rush up and bite him to death. Lin Mengya secretly reassured herself that this was her own man, and if he was killed, she would have to find him again, which would be very troublesome.
Then, it stopped in front of Gong Wu.
What was given to Gong Wu was a cup of tea with a slightly rich taste, and it was also paired with the plate of white sugar soft cake.
The cake is sweet and greasy, and the tea is slightly bitter, which is the best combination.
After that, there are the Lian brothers who are the masters.
The winning streak is a cup of tea and a plate of salted osmanthus. Although the opponent's face doesn't show anything, there is a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Lian Xing had tea and ginkgo. The guy who was already so crowded that he couldn't sit still, after seeing the fragrant roasted ginkgo, couldn't help but smile and roll his eyes.
Finally, we arrived in front of Long Tianyu.
Lin Mengya put the tea and sour plums in front of him without changing her expression. Just as she was about to leave, she was stopped by the man.
"You stop."
"Is there anything else your Highness can do?"
Murong Xi pointed at the sour plum in front of her, with a bit of displeasure in her eyes.
"I won't eat this, you take it."
Lin Mengya grabbed her body and looked at the man in front of her with a half-smile.
"Really don't want to eat?"
"Don't eat!"
His tone was like that of an angry child.
The anger aroused by him gradually dissipated in Lin Mengya's heart.
She took a step forward, her eyebrows relaxed slightly, and she revealed a soft smile that only Murong Xi could see.
“If you don’t eat it, you will regret it!”
Her tone was like a wolf grandma coaxing a child.
After saying that, the person backed away.
Murong Xi was left looking at the four dark sour plums, in a dilemma.
That stinky woman must be playing tricks on him!
"Your Highness Xi, you don't like this tea? However, it's hard to blame Miss Gong's ingenuity. The four teas she served us today are all different. Your cup, if paired with sour plums, can help digestion and appetite.
It’s most suitable for drinking in winter. If you don’t like it, I’ll ask you to get another drink.”
Lian Sheng thought that Murong Xi couldn't get used to drinking this tea, so he couldn't help but said with regret.
Even the whole family likes tea, otherwise they wouldn’t spend so much money
I found a tea doctor and came back.
Appetite for digestion?
Murong Xi then remembered that she had not had any appetite for seven or eight days.
"No need."
He picked up the tea cup, and the warm and slightly bitter tea flowed between his mouth.
It seemed that even the sour plum I fed into my mouth was no longer sour, but had a touch of sweetness and a strong sourness.
As the sour-smelling tea invaded his stomach, he felt something seemed to be clearing up a lot.
After drinking a cup of tea, he discovered something strange.
He actually felt hungry!
Although his reason was constantly warning him not to fall in again, his eyes were involuntarily searching for that figure.
Unfortunately, after tea was served, she quit.
That woman, maybe
No, this is all her method, it must be!
But sometimes, reason is one thing, but the feeling in the heart is another matter.
Leaning in the carriage, Lin Mengya took a nap.
Afraid that that dead man would come up with another way to torment her, Lin Mengya had no choice but to sneak out of the Lian Mansion while he still hadn't recovered his composure.
She was also afraid that he would embarrass the fifth brother, so she had to hide in the carriage and wait for Gong Wu to come out safely before going home together.
Fortunately, her carriage was very warm, and there was a charcoal stove in the middle for heating. She was wearing a thick fur cloak and a woolen blanket, so naturally she didn't feel cold at all.
Outside the carriage, there was gradually a movement, like the sound of another carriage rolling on the ground.
Lin Mengya heard it clearly and thought someone was coming out.
When he raised the window, he found that it was just an inconspicuous carriage.
Unexpectedly, the Shennong system issued a weak warning at this time.
"Gong Quan, do you know what that car is used for?"
Gong Quan, who was in charge of driving the bus, stretched his neck and looked at it before replying.
"It should be a carriage delivering food to the mansion. I think the carriage seems to be heading towards the back door. What's wrong, young lady?"
Something's wrong!
If it was a carriage delivering food, how could the Shennong system have a toxic reaction?
Her intuition told her that something was wrong here.
"I'll go over and have a look. If the fifth brother comes out, you tell him to look for me at the back door. Do you understand?"
"Miss, it's cold outside, you'd better wait in the carriage."
Ignoring Gong Quan's obstruction, Lin Mengya jumped off the carriage and ran quickly towards the back door of Lian Mansion.
Fortunately, today, she came out wearing a white fox fur.
After the snow, she Dressed in white, as long as you are careful, you can hide your whereabouts.
It should be lunch time at this time. In fact, members of the Lian family came over to invite her secretly once before, but she declined them all.
Firstly, she has no appetite, and secondly, that fool Lian Xing must have said something shocking again.
In public, he said too much, which made both families look bad.
She didn't want Long Tianyu to stare at her like he was eating people again.
For the sake of everyone's appetite and life safety, I'm afraid I can only give in to my stomach.
The back door was in a small alley where few people passed. She followed the car all the way and found the back door of Lian's house.
But what surprised her was that the door was ajar and not closed.
She didn't move rashly, she just listened carefully.
There was no movement inside, so it was considered safe for the time being.
She opened the door and slipped in.
Several people were lying on the snow.
Judging by his attire, he must be a servant of the Lian family.
Sure enough, the carriage was parked in the yard. She thought about it and went to check the carriage first.
It was empty inside, but there was still some smell left in the air.
The taste has a slight sweetness, which seems to be the aroma of fruits such as grapes.
These things are hard to come by in winter. Lin Mengya suddenly thought of a possibility and couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
No, they are in danger!
It was a bit difficult to find the flower hall where they had previously held meetings from the backyard, but there were many footprints left on the snow.
She always chooses the places with the most dense footprints to walk. Fortunately, soon a building that looks familiar to her appears.
It just so happens that this is the courtyard where Mrs. Lian lives.
Not caring about anything else, Lin Mengya tried her best to speed up and ran into the yard.
"anyone there?"
Arriving in the courtyard out of breath, Lin Mengya shouted a little loudly, and someone immediately walked out of the concierge.
"I've seen Miss Gong, did you leave anything behind?"
Most of the people in the courtyard knew her, not to mention that even the madam liked her very much, and the servants' attitude towards her was respectful and a bit fond.
"No, it's just that I have something urgent and I want to see my wife. I wonder if she is here now?"
"Madam, didn't you follow me to the front yard to have dinner with you?"
The concierge's words made Lin Mengya secretly scream.
Their target seems to be the Lian family!
"Okay, thank you very much. Sister, please be careful and close the door tightly. If you see anyone suspicious, don't believe it!"
