Chapter 750 Birthday Cake
Chu Mushan came over and said with a genuine smile: "The gifts from the two grandfathers, fathers and brothers are all placed in Tingjianxuan's room. Even the eldest brother and sister-in-law who are far away in Junlangguan also brought gifts. Well. And Yancheng's grandmother and uncles..."
Gu Ye, who was an orphan in his previous life, didn't even know when his birthday was, let alone had a birthday. After passing through, when I celebrated my birthday with Gu Ming's brother, I would at most have a meal with my grandfather. It turns out that birthday banquets can be so lively. It turns out that the feeling of being missed by so many people is so beautiful!
Rong He, the eldest princess, and the two empresses gave gifts that they had prepared. The eldest princess gave a piece of blood jade the size of two fists, the color was bright as fire, and it was still glass: "The color of this jade is just right for you, a little girl of your age, I don't know what fancy style you like, No craftsmen were asked to carve it.”
"Wow! It's too expensive, isn't it?" Gu Ye knew the goods. A pair of blood jade bracelets from Yinzhen Pavilion was not half as big as this, and the quality was not as good as this. It cost several thousand taels of silver. . This piece of blood jade can produce at least four pairs of bracelets, and if the design is clever, it can even carve a hairpin...
Concubine Tong smiled and said: "What the eldest princess gave you, you can take it! When Princess Rong He got married, the dowry was even richer than He Jia, and there were many enviable treasures. She was the king of Ning. A son, aren't all the good things in your hands in the future yours?"
Gu Ye pursed his lips and smiled, and said to the eldest princess: "Then I'll... accept it with the cheek? Thank you, eldest princess."
Concubine Qin smiled and said: "Miss Ye'er will be ready next year! Now she is called the 'eldest princess', and in two years, she should change her words!"
Concubine Tong and Concubine Qin also gave jewelry. What Concubine Tong gave was a pair of bracelets that were hollowed out and inlaid with treasures, while Concubine Qin gave a set of expensive heads.
The allergic symptoms on her face have completely disappeared. The little princess Roufu, who received a bottle of Gu Ye's children's skin cream, shyly sent a handkerchief she embroidered to Gu Ye. The material of the handkerchief is precious. Silkworm silk.
She was reluctant to use such a precious material herself, but she didn't expect to give it to Gu Ye as a gift. The little girl's temperament is the opposite of her fiery and enthusiastic elder sister. She is timid and shyly whispered: "Sister Ye'er, happy birthday!"
Gu Ye's handkerchief, looking at it with love, praised the little princess Roufu's embroidery work, saying that he liked it very much.
Princess Hejia held a box, walked over mysteriously, and said, "As long as it is a pharmacist, I will like this gift!"
When Gu Ye opened it, it turned out to be the holy medicine for detoxification - Jiu Pin Lian. This thing, it is said that it can only be found in the extreme cold, it is extremely rare, but it is an indispensable main medicine for the preparation of detoxification elixir. The detoxification elixir can detoxify hundreds of poisons, and it has always ranked first in the list of elixir! However, in recent years, there has been a tendency to be replaced by a mysterious potion that can prolong life...
"Princess, are you too willing?" A ninth-grade lotus plant costs tens of thousands of taels at least. Usually it is impossible to find, and Gu Ye couldn't help but stunned at the generosity of Princess Hejia.
Princess Hejia shoved the box into Gu Ye's arms and said, "As the saying goes, 'the sword is given to the hero, and the medicine is given to the pharmacist', this ninth-grade lotus is in the hands of this princess, but it is just a medicinal herb, but in your hands, it can It has become a lot of life-saving medicinal pills. If you feel bad about it, after you have prepared the medicine, just send me a few pills!"
Concubine Tong smiled and scolded: "You have a good abacus. Are you a birthday gift, or do you want the little genius doctor to help you make medicine?"
Princess Hejia said, "Who is Xiao Ye'er and I? We are good friends at first sight, and we will be able to kiss each other again soon. What do you do with such a clear distinction? I sincerely want to give the gift. Pill, I also really want it. Begging for drops, hehe..." The smile on her face was unbearable to look straight at.
Mrs. Niu and her daughter also gave gifts... The guests have all received gifts, what about Brother Chen's? Gu Ye was looking forward to it. Just as she was looking for her brother Chen in the crowd, the lights in the water pavilion suddenly went out at the same time. The lively atmosphere suddenly quieted down.
"I wish you a happy birthday~ I wish you a happy birthday, I wish you a happy birthday - I wish Xiao Ye'er a happy birthday..." The door of the water pavilion quietly opened, a slender figure, pushing a cake with fourteen candles, slowly slowly from the outside Walking in slowly, the magnetic and elegant "Happy Birthday Song" echoes in the water pavilion.
"Wow! Birthday cake!" Gu Ye's eyes were brighter than the lights outside. Also, Brother Chen sings so well that his ears will get pregnant. Gu Ye showed an idiotic face to Ling Juechen, who was also handsome in the candlelight.
The two-layer cake was pushed in front of Gu Ye, Ling Juechen said in a magnetic voice, "Ye'er, happy birthday!"
"What is this? It's so beautiful, and there's fruit on it! Can I eat it?"
"This is a cream cake. I remember that I was too troublesome and didn't tell Aunt Yan how to make cream. She knows how to make this!" Gu Ye looked at the delicate cream roses, brightly colored jams, and colorful fruits on the cake— —It's not inferior to the custom made in the cake shop in the previous life!
Ling Juechen leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I made this birthday cake for you myself. For this cake, I pondered it in the small kitchen by myself every day, and it took me seven or eight days to come up with a satisfactory look... …Like it?"
"I like it, I really like it!" There are countless happy little bubbles in Gu Ye's heart, rising little by little, and each bubble has her happy smiling face, "Brother Chen made it by himself, I like it even more. !"
"Blow out the candle and make a wish!" Seeing the smiling face of the little girl, Ling Juechen felt that the hard work and hard work these days were all worth it!
Gu Ye clasped his hands on his chest while everyone was curious and puzzled, and silently made a wish in his heart: I hope that I can be with her big ice cube forever and never be separated!
After making the wish, she puffed out her mouth and blew out all fourteen candles in one breath. Princess Hejia felt fresh and asked, "You haven't answered my question just now. Also, what were you doing just now? Why did you blow out the candles?"
"This is called a birthday cake. It is said that if you make a wish on the birthday cake, there is a great possibility that it will be fulfilled. If you don't blow out the candles, how will you cut the cake and eat the cake later?" Gu Ye explained perfunctorily. If she doesn't give an answer, this guy can haunt her all night.
Princess Hejia smiled and said, "It's really edible! The flowers next to it are so beautiful, they're the same as the real ones, and people are reluctant to destroy them!"
"Little birthday star, cut the cake!" Ling Juechen handed the little girl a knife with no edge.
On the lower level of the cake cart, there are more than a dozen exquisite small plates. Gu Ye first cut a piece for Princess Rong He, and then gave it to Concubine Tong and Concubine Qin. Ling Juechen grabbed the knife, and took the little girl's favorite piece of mango, cut it, and gave it to the little girl: "You are the birthday star tonight, eat it first!"
Gu Ye picked up the small spoon, dug out a piece of sweet cream and put it in his mouth, um... the taste is quite authentic! It seems that Brother Chen is very talented as a pastry chef, he is really versatile!
Princess Hejia couldn't wait to grab the knife from cousin Ning Wang's hand, cut a big piece, hid to the side and ate it, forgetting that she had three children beside her who needed her to feed. Today is Gu Ye's birthday, so it's hard for the concubine to come with you.
After Princess Hejia tasted Aunt Yan's craft once, she thought about it every day. Taking advantage of Gu Ye's birthday banquet, she brought three small oil bottles to feast on her.
After a bite of the birthday cake, she felt that she was really worth it. The milky, fruity aroma, the dense and soft cake, and the sweet aroma of jam melted in the mouth in layers, and her heart almost flew into the sky...
Ling Juechen shared the cake with Mrs. Niu, mother and daughter, and three little buns who were about to cry (Friend Situ Xuan did not admit that he would cry for food). Finally, it was Gu Ye's two older brothers' turn.
Obviously, the taste of this cake has conquered the taste buds of everyone present. After the little princess Roufu had eaten a small piece, she was embarrassed to ask for it again, but she didn't enjoy it... Princess Hejia didn't care about so much, she ate a big piece in a hurry, and cut another piece. As soon as he turned his head, he met his little sister's eager eyes, and couldn't help but ask, "Rou'er, do you still want it?"
The little princess Roufu nodded and whispered shyly: "This snack is delicious, there is no one in the palace, I am tasting it for the first time today..."
Princess Hejia cut a piece for her and said, "Don't say it's you, it's my first time to eat it! Xiao Ye'er, did your cook make this yourself, or did you buy it from outside?"
"I made it myself!" Gu Ye's eyes were aimed at the "cook" who made the cake - Ning Wang Ling Juechen. Good workmanship! Before she knew it, a small piece of cake on her plate was gone.
When Gu Ye stretched out his hand to cut it again, he was stopped by the "cook": "Don't eat so many sweets at night, there will be a birthday feast later, there are spicy rabbit heads, roasted brain flowers, boneless chicken feet..."
After being dragged by Princess Hejia for a long time outside the city in the afternoon, Gu Ye was already hungry. When Ling Juechen said a dish, Gu Ye swallowed and couldn't wait.
Concubine Qin was eating the cake gracefully. Seeing the little children who were whispering, she couldn't help but winked at Rong and the eldest princess: "Look! How good is the relationship! How do you feel?"
Princess Rong He gently wiped the corner of her lower lip with a handkerchief, revealing a typical "aunt smile", and sighed softly: "What does it feel like... Sighing that my own pig will finally bow to other people's cabbage. Really. It's not easy!"
Concubine Qin almost choked with laughter. She covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed a few times. She laughed and said, "You! It's still so narrow!"
