When Shen Wan got up, Qiu Ju had already prepared breakfast. After washing, she walked out of the bedroom door and saw that Qiu Ju had placed breakfast on the stone table under the grape trellis.
"Madam, hurry up and have breakfast!" After breakfast, they still have to go to Zhaixinglou to deliver kimchi!
"Okay." Shen Wan walked down the steps and sat on the stone bench under the grape trellis.
Qiu Ju put breakfast on the table, then went into the kitchen again, and came out after a while carrying a wooden basin.
"Madam, please eat first. I'll be back soon."
"Where are you going?" Shen Wan asked.
Qiu Ju replied: "The jar can't hold it anymore. There are a lot of cucumbers and radishes left. The cucumbers can't be kept for a long time, so I made them all into cucumbers. Even the two of us in this yard can't finish them. I want to Send some to the soldiers."
"Oh." Shen Wan picked up the chopsticks and nodded, watching Qiu Ju leave Qiushi Yard.
The soldiers lived in the northernmost courtyard of the General's Mansion. This courtyard was also the largest in the General's Mansion, with more than ten rooms, and a total of forty soldiers lived there.
In the General's Mansion, the servants from each courtyard went to the big kitchen to get their meals and ate in each courtyard. The same was true for the soldiers in the palace. Only the maids and boys who did the chores ate in the big kitchen.
When Qiu Ju arrived in the north courtyard, the soldiers were sitting on the long table in the courtyard, preparing to have breakfast. Their breakfast was very simple, just a few baskets of large steamed buns, two buckets of porridge, and a few plates of pickles.
The courtyard door was open. Qiu Ju stood at the door and immediately saw Qiao Mu sitting at the long table. Among all the soldiers, Qiao Mu was definitely the most handsome.
This courtyard was full of men, so it was naturally difficult for Qiu Ju to enter, so she stood at the door and shouted twice.
"Brother Qiaomu, brother Qiaomu."
There were many people in the courtyard, so it was a bit noisy. Qiao Mu, who was concentrating on eating breakfast, didn't hear anyone calling him for a moment. But Sun Haoran, a soldier sitting next to him, heard it. He looked towards the door and saw a handsome man standing outside. The girl was calling Qiao Mu, so he looked at Qiao Mu jokingly and said: "Qiao Mu, there is a girl outside the door calling you!"
"Where?"
When the others heard what Sun Haoran said, they all became restless, and all stretched their necks to look at the courtyard door.
Qiao Mu also stretched his neck to take a look, and saw Qiu Ju, who was wearing a light blue half-wall skirt embroidered with begonia flowers, holding a wooden basin and standing outside the courtyard gate.
"Oh! She is really a girl!"
"You're not bad looking! Qiao Mu, could this be your sweetheart?" One of the soldiers, who always liked to joke, started joking, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
"Hahaha……"
Qiu Ju, who was standing at the door, immediately blushed when she saw Fu Bing's jokes and laughter.
Qiao Mu stood up and said with a straight face: "Stop talking nonsense."
Seeing Qiao Mu being so serious, everyone stopped laughing.
Qiao Mu walked to the entrance of the courtyard and saw Qiu Ju's face turning slightly red, and couldn't help but feel confused.
"Qiu, why is Miss Qiu Ju here?" He couldn't help but feel nervous and stuttered when speaking. This... this must be because they were joking around.
Qiu Ju lowered her head and did not dare to look at the tree. She whispered: "I bought too many cucumbers yesterday. The cucumbers cannot be stored for a long time. My wife and I can't finish them all at once. Thinking that there are many people in the north courtyard, we I made some cold dishes and brought some to you."
With that said, Qiu Ju handed the wooden basin in her hand to Qiao Mu.
Qiao Mu hurriedly stretched out his hands to take it, "Thank you very much, Miss Qiu Ju."
Although the shape of these cucumbers looks like they have been smashed, and they don't look very good, they smell very fragrant, so the taste should not be bad.
"Then, you eat slowly, I'll leave first." After Qiu Ju finished speaking, she turned around and walked away with small steps.
She didn't know why, but after hearing the joke and seeing Brother Qiao Mu, her heart felt like she had kicked a rabbit, hopping around.
