C155 Emperor and Queen

"The emperor is joking. I'm just not having a good mouth. Qingluo, I'm so envious of your craftsmanship." The empress took Qingluo's hand and patted it affectionately, expressing her apology.

"I'm the only one who is picky. If there's even the slightest bit of unhappiness in the food, it would be hard to swallow, so, sister-in-law is not picky about your dumpling. It's really a habit I've developed since I was young, I can't change it."

Qingluo naturally had to be polite with the empress, using her fingers to point at the dumplings, taking the chance to pull out her hand. "I only dared to bring my dumplings over because my Queen Mother loves me dearly, it's just acting coquettishly. If I really eat it, it'll be too much for my mother."

Qingluo naturally knew that the empress dowager couldn't blame her, so she used the empress dowager as an excuse. As expected, the empress dowager only nodded and smiled, but didn't reply.

"It's good that sister-in-law isn't to blame; she's being too picky. But then again, you are much more filial than her. You even know how to bring dumplings to Mother during New Year's. I didn't expect that."

"Muhou, don't pick out a daughter-in-law's manners. A daughter-in-law's heart is not as bold as it is in the past two days. Tomorrow, your daughter-in-law will also make two dishes and bring it to you."

The empress dowager naturally wouldn't really argue with her over this matter. "Aiya, all of you are good. With this kind of heart, why would you need to really send it over? Qingluo is just a child, she'll find an excuse to come to the palace and see me."

The empress dowager beckoned to Qingluo, who walked over. "Didn't you and Seventh Brother still have to go to Grand Consort? Let's go over now. It's not good to be late anyway."

Qing Luo naturally went down the stairs. "Then Qing Luo will go over first. I'll come back another day to see the Queen Mother."

"Go, go." The empress dowager made a gesture to push Qingluo forward, causing his and Luo Qingqi to rise, and bid their farewells to the emperor and empress. Only then did Qingluo follow Luo Qingqi out of the Tzu Ning Palace.

Being blown by the cold wind, Qing Luo felt her back was cold and drenched in sweat. When she sat on the palanquin, she could feel the warmth on her hands. Only then could she finally calm down.

"Qing Wen, why do you think the empress office came?" Even in such a small space, Qing Luo was afraid that someone would hear her words, so she tried her best to whisper it in Luo Qingqi's ear.

Luo Qingqi tilted his head slightly, and Qingluo's lips pressed against his cheek. Qingluo's face immediately flushed red, she turned and sat straight, not daring to overstep herself.

Seeing that Qingluo's face was as red as an apple, Luo Qingqi curled his lips and resisted his laughter. He moved closer to Qingluo's face, scaring her so much that she hurriedly moved to the side to hide.

After dodging, she felt that her movements were too obvious, so she quickly moved her body back, her little red face, that nervous and cute look, Luo Qingqi finally could not hold it in, and burst out laughing.

He leaned close to Qingluo's cheek and kissed her. Just as Qingluo was about to turn her face, she heard a soft sound in her ear. "There's an ear to the wall." As soon as she said that, Qingluo became nervous again.

Luo Qingqi held her hand tighter and placed it on top of his own big hand, measuring his weight, "Look at your little hand, it's so small, but I don't know how it grows, it's smooth and soft, like it has no bones."

Luo Qingqi rubbed Qingluo's small hands, causing her hands to feel itchy, his heart also felt itchy, these words were too corny, just a moment ago he said that the other side of the wall had ears, making people who heard it wouldn't die from laughing.

Qing Luo turned his head to the side and glared at, wanting to say that he was unorthodox. However, he saw that Luo Qingqi's bright and lively eyes were fixated on him.

When he saw himself looking over, he used his finger to point at the sky, then at the fingertips of his large hand, then at the ground, then at the fingertips of his own small hand.

After that, she continued to stare at him, and then Qingluo arched her eyebrows. Of course she understood, Luo Qingqi was telling her that the emperor was like this large and warm palm, while the empress was like her own small and soft palm.

Although her small hands looked nice and easy to touch, if they were to compare strength, they would be on a completely different level compared to that big hand. Was this telling her not to worry? Qingluo raised her eyebrows but didn't say anything.

The Spring Festival Hall s of the Grand matriarch also arrived very soon. After the two of them made their report, they entered the main hall together.

The two of them knelt down and kowtowed, only then did they straighten their bodies, and saw the silver haired Grand matriarch looking at them with tears in his eyes, "Mufei, how have you been?"

This was the first time the two of them had seen Grand matriarch since they were newly married and had come to the palace to express their gratitude.

"Fine, what's wrong with me? There's food and drink to it, and no one dares to bully me." Grand matriarch's state of mind was a bit better than when they last saw each other. She no longer wore a straight face, and at this time, she even carried a little teasing, which made the two of them a little surprised.

"Mufei, I've prepared some dumplings for you, why don't you have a taste first? I'm afraid we won't be able to eat after a while. We'll talk after we've eaten dumplings. "

As for the dumplings that Qingluo wholeheartedly packed, from cooking to finishing it all by herself, she really wanted Grand matriarch to eat all of the works that she had finished all of them, but she was also really afraid that if she stuck them all together, she would be sad.

"Dumplings for mufei? own? " Grand matriarch still couldn't believe it, "When I was young, I also learned to make dumplings before, but I didn't expect that making dumplings would be so difficult, I didn't learn it in the end."

When she heard that Grand matriarch had also learned how to make dumplings before, she felt that she had the ability to show off, "Mufei, did you not listen to the chef's words and just do what you're told?"

"How do you know? I think I did the right thing, but I just didn't succeed." Qingluo then laughed out loud. She did not expect that Grand matriarch would have the same experience as her.

"Hurry up and bring the dumplings over for mufei to taste." Qing Luo ordered the attendant who brought her in. This was the first time she had instructed the attendant, such things usually came from Luo Qingqi, it was obvious that Qing Luo was excited.

"Mufei, Qingluo has been studying for several days. It was a mess at the beginning, but I've heard that the instant noodles mix well with several bowls of noodles. In the end, you let the cook take it out for the pancakes, right?"

After Luo Qingqi exposed his background, Qingluo gazed at him unwillingly, then turned his face towards Grand matriarch and said unhappily, "It's not much, it's probably only about four or five pots."

The cook has already prepared flour and water for me, so I just want to follow my own thoughts, but I can't mix the dough with it. I thought it would be a pity to throw it away, so I let the cook add more flour and burn it into a cake for the people in the house to eat.

Grand matriarch laughed along with her. Young people were really good, they had the time to waste and the opportunity to repeat themselves, "Don't say it, the situation when I was learning was almost the same as what Qingluo said."

"It's just that I don't have that much flour to waste, so I didn't learn it. Now that I think about it, it's actually like what Qingluo said. I only wanted to make dumplings back then, so I wasn't in the mood to listen to other people's explanations."

"As for me, I only care about rushing forward. The kitchen lady does not dare to stop me, and now that I think about it, I'm too young. I think that what I'm thinking about is right, and only when there's nothing else to use, do I realize that I have missed the opportunity."

"Qingluo was able to realize this at such a young age. Furthermore, she was able to find her mistakes and adjust herself in time. You are much stronger than me back then."

Being praised by the Grand matriarch, Qingluo was even more dissatisfied with her performance at that time. She was too self-righteous, and if it wasn't for the kitchen who used the opportunity to rebut the little girl to wake her up, she would have been wrong forever.

At that time, the reason the Grand matriarch bagged dumplings was also because he wanted to feed them to someone important in his heart. If he did not succeed, how regretful would he be?

"Dumplings are here. Let mufei have a taste first." Luo Qingqi took the food from the attendant and handed her the box. Qingluo personally brought out the dumplings and made the best use of the dipping material.

Without sticking together, and without making Qingluo passive, Qingluo had to thank the cook for teaching her little trick. Now that she thought about it, experience really was an indispensable part of life.

No matter how hard you try to persevere or how strong you are, there will be a few things you won't understand. No matter what, you have to learn more, comprehend more, and not be arrogant.

It was just like the Grand matriarch back then. After she used up all the flour, her hopes were dashed.

Although there are no 'ifs' in the world, we can let this happen the next time. If it happens, we can suffer a setback and learn to be a good boy. This is also a kind of success, growing up in the wrong way, perhaps even faster than in the right way.

"Mufei, what flavor do you like to eat?" Qingluo carried a small plate and dumplings and was about to give them to Grand matriarch's dipping material. Grand Consort was not used to being served, so just as she was about to take them, she saw Luo Qingqi give her a look, causing her to raise her body.

"I like it sour and salty, neither spicy nor sweet." Qing Luo picked the dipping material with this taste and then brought the dumplings in front of Grand matriarch.

"En, it's delicious!" Grand matriarch ate the dumplings and carefully savored it. He then praised Qingluo. Such an attitude made her feel a sense of pride that was truly recognized.

Because mufei had tasted it carefully, her praise must not be courteous. Qingluo had also learned this from Grand matriarch: When you really want to praise someone, you must remember, don't lie, you must be sincere.

After eating the dumplings, Qingluo had also told the Grand matriarch that she had left some frozen dumplings for her.
