Chapter 902 Bai Lu’s father doesn’t love her, and her mother doesn’t love her either
Seeing Bai Lu's eager look to leave, the Queen Mother almost trembled with fear.
She quickly reached out and pulled Bai Lu back, a smile on her face as she said to her, "You're absolutely right, but...we still have to let Shen Lanhua lead the way, right?"
"That's right." Bai Lu nodded in response, and then she heard the Queen Mother say with a smile: "How about this, I will interrogate her for a few more days and find out the specific address. Then we will take action. I will go with you then."
Haha, then we can say... Shen Lanhua is dead, and we don’t know where Bai Lu’s mother is. Wouldn’t that solve the problem?
The Queen Mother already had murderous intentions in her heart.
However, Bai Lu didn't notice. She nodded to the Queen Mother and said, "That makes sense. Then interrogate Shen Lanhua thoroughly."
"Come here, drag Shen Lanhua away!" Bai Lu waved her hand, and the Queen Mother nodded, hurriedly ordering everyone, "Now, throw her into the Emperor's prison."
"The Emperor's prison is extremely strict, sometimes using torture. Even if Shen Lanhua has something she doesn't want to say... she has to say it!"
After listening to the Queen Mother's instructions, Bai Lu realized that she wanted to take the matter into her own hands.
There's no harm in this, it saves her from worrying about it, and she really doesn't have much free time recently.
Moreover, if he frequently went in and out of the Heavenly Prison, his three brothers would definitely become suspicious.
If they knew in advance, there would be no surprise at all.
She pondered for a moment and said, "In that case, send her to the Heavenly Prison."
"How can we explain this to His Majesty?"
"You don't have to explain to him. When the time comes, just say... this is a palace maid by my side who is used to stealing things. Just throw her in." The empress dowager waved her hand and ordered someone to drag Shen Lanhua out quickly.
She never wanted Shen Lanhua and Bai Lu to meet again.
After Shen Lanhua was quickly dragged away.
The Queen Mother coughed twice, then said to Bai Lu, "Haha, speaking of which...it's already this time, our seven little moons must have woken up."
"Come on, let's go to the next room and see them."
There was a reason why the emperor gave this house to Bai Lu and her children - the house was huge, with nine entrances and nine exits, and courtyards connected to each other.
The seven little moons were all placed in separate courtyards, and there were even a few courtyards left empty, which could be used for Bai Lu's adopted sons to live in.
This time, only Ximen Liuyun and the young prince came to Kyoto.
They both have their own home in Kyoto, so Bai Lu doesn't have to worry about them when they come. They can just stay here.
Leng Bingnian, Su Jinyu and others were taken care of by the Qingzhou prefect in Qingzhou.
As for Wuli and his father, they were being entertained at the Honglu Temple and would be able to meet up with Bailu and the others in two days.
In a yard full of red plum blossoms, January stretched lazily.
Two figures stood in the corridor.
The maid had her hair combed into two buns and wore a half-worn red silk bodice over her blue cloth jacket. When she saw Yi Yue wake up, she hurried in to serve her.
The servant next to him was wearing a gray cloth robe and holding a copper basin in his hand with a neatly folded plain handkerchief resting on the edge of the basin. He handed it over respectfully and then waited on the side.
When Yi Yue woke up, two maids hurried to help her comb her hair and wash her face.
The White Dew just arrived, and January got up just in time, wearing a beautiful pink skirt, looking precious and elegant.
There is a lazy expression on her pretty little face, like a lazy kitten.
"January." Bai Lu waved to January.
Yi Yue's eyes lit up immediately, and he ran over to rub against her, calling softly, "Mommy~" "Mommy!"
She hugged Bailu and refused to let go, acting coquettishly, which melted Bailu's heart.
I had been traveling so long that I didn’t have time to spend time alone with my daughters. Now I finally have time to be alone with them.
Bai Lu thought: I wonder how they will feel when they see their grandmother?
After all, the seven little moons had never felt loved by their grandmother and grandfather.
As for their grandfather...he never gave them any love either.
They would probably be very happy if they saw their grandmother.
Among all these relatives, only the grandmother truly loves them.
"Mom, I want to eat the spicy chicken you made for me." "I want it super spicy!"
"Mom will make spicy chicken for you, but it can't be too spicy... Can you handle it?" Bai Lu couldn't help but pinch the little girl's face.
I just think that face is so tender and cute.
Yi Yue rubbed his face, which was not too red from being pinched, and said with a smile: "It's edible! It's edible!" "Make it spicy for me and mild for them!"
"Okay, I promise you." "Whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you today." "Today, I'll be alone with you."
Bai Lu specifically told the people outside to guard the house well, and if anyone else wanted to disturb them, they should be kept out.
Not long after, the other children woke up.
Eryue took Bailu's hand and said, "I don't want to eat spicy chicken. I want to eat the cold noodles that my mother made for me."
March and April looked at each other and said quickly, "We can eat anything as long as it's cooked by mom."
They didn't order any dishes separately.
Wu Yue thought for a while and said, "I'm trying to lose weight. Why don't you make me a vegetable salad?"
"Hey, have you started to lose weight?" Everyone couldn't help but curl their lips when they looked at May, the thinnest one.
She knows how to manage her body at a young age and she is really good-looking.
June was the greediest, and immediately drooled as she said to Bai Lu, "Mom, I want to eat roasted whole lamb!"
"Ouch!" This scared Bai Lu. "Roasting a whole lamb is not easy to make. And even if I did, you guys wouldn't be able to finish it."
"Then I want a roasted leg of lamb!" June's mouth started to water more and more (???????)
Seeing this, Bai Lu could only reluctantly agree. "Okay, okay, if you want roasted lamb legs, I'll make them for you."
"Each person can eat a few bites of roast lamb leg and always finish it."
"Mom, I want to eat dessert, please make me a small cake!"
"Okay, mother will do it for you!"
Bai Lu said and walked into the kitchen.
When the cooks saw Bai Lu, a delicate little girl, walk into the kitchen herself, they couldn't help but widen their eyes in surprise.
They thought to themselves: Bai Lu's hands can be used to touch brocade, or to carry a sword, but... they cannot be used to cook!
However, when they saw Bai Lu's neat and tidy movements in butchering the chicken, the cooks shuddered with fear and hurried forward to say, "Oh, Lord Bai, please stop!" "Let us do it, let us do it."
They immediately took out their big knives and carefully cut the chicken into small pieces.
Just as I was about to move on to the next step, I heard Bai Lu say with a smile, "I cooked for the children myself today, how can I go back on my word?"
"We understand." The cooks nodded and said quickly, "Let us help you." "The specific steps... are up to you."
"That's fine." Bai Lu nodded.
This not only saved Bai Lu a lot of energy and made her feel more relaxed, but also allowed the children to taste what the dishes cooked by Bai Lu herself tasted like.
After they chopped the chicken into pieces, they quickly scraped off the fat.
Bai Lu marinated the chicken pieces with cooking wine, light soy sauce, ginger slices and other seasonings.
Then, she picked out a few fat lamb legs, looked at them carefully for a long time, and finally chose the fattest one. She used a fork to poke many small holes on the surface of the lamb leg so that it could better absorb the flavor of the seasoning. She put the lamb leg into a large bowl, poured in the secret sauce, and began to rub and massage it patiently, so that every inch of the lamb was soaked in rich aroma.
After the two things were pickled, Bai Lu asked again, "Do we have eggs here?"
"Yes, yes, yes. They are all freshly harvested. Zhuangzi came specially to deliver them! Everything is fresh... Lord Bai, if you want to eat them, you can have as much as you want!" They all smiled flatteringly at Bai Lu.
Bai Lu nodded and said to them, "Then bring some eggs and flour, as well as some corn oil and milk."
They know about milk, but what is corn oil?
Corn oil extraction?
The cooks looked at each other.
But at this time, Bai Lu had to have everything she wanted. Someone was so clever that he secretly said, "These things must be used to make cakes. The Seven Fairies Milk Tea Shop also makes cakes. They must have corn oil in their shop. Can't we just go buy some?"
They hurriedly and secretly went to Bai's Seven Fairies Milk Tea Shop to buy it.
After a while, they came back with corn oil and the things Bai Lu wanted.
Making small cakes cannot be careless. Bai Lu separates the eggs and beats the egg whites into fine foam.
Mix the egg yolks with flour, milk, corn oil, etc., then carefully mix the two and pour them into a round porcelain bowl mold.
“Is there an oven here?”
"Yes!" The cooks nodded hurriedly.
Fortunately, the house is big enough and has everything. Otherwise, the things she wants are so diverse that it might not be possible to get them all in a short time.
After putting the cake into the oven, it gradually expands and emits bursts of sweet aroma.
Vegetable salad is much simpler. Bailu washes and cuts the lettuce, cucumber, tomato, etc., puts them in a bowl, pours salad dressing on them, and stirs gently.
The seasoning for the cold noodles is also carefully prepared, with a little vinegar and chili oil.
It's sour and spicy, very good.
Bai Lu, who was busy in the kitchen, could occasionally hear the children playing and laughing outside. "July, don't steal my kite!" "February, come and help me!"
After a while, the spicy chicken started sizzling in the hot oil.
The chicken becomes golden and crispy, and the aroma of chili spreads.
The roasted lamb leg sizzles in the oven, and the skin becomes golden and crispy.
The small cake was also baked. Bai Lu took it out of the oven, put it on a rack to cool, and then decorated it carefully with cream and fruit.
As the delicious dishes were served, the children's eyes lit up. "Wow, they smell so good!" "Mom, you're amazing!" Several pretty fairies said: (σ≧?▽?≦?)σ!!!
Bai Lu looked at the happy faces of the children and a happy smile appeared on her face.
"Mom, this spicy chicken is so delicious, I want to eat more!" January said incoherently with his mouth full of chicken.
"This roasted lamb leg is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside!" June gave a thumbs up while gnawing on the lamb leg.
"Mom, this food is so delicious. Can you make it for us every day?" The children acted coquettishly towards Bai Lu, pulling her hand and shaking it.
Bai Lu was happy and said to the seven little moons with a smile: "Okay, Mom will make it for you every day from now on." "Mom loves you little babies the most."
The children kept clinging to Bailu and rubbing against her, feeling extremely happy.
After they grew up, Bai Lu rarely stayed with them and spent half a year away from home.
They also know that Bailu is very busy every day, but they really miss their mother.
Bai Lu was doing something loyal to her country, so they couldn't say anything. Even expressing their longing for her would seem immature.
But they really miss her very much.
I don’t know if Bailu can understand their feelings - they don’t want to eat anything, but they hope... Bailu can stay with them for a long time.
Bailu was very happy to see the children enjoying their meal.
Before she knew it, she felt a lump in her nose.
How could she not notice the way the children were cautiously acting coquettishly towards her?
Oh, it's really distressing...
The Queen Mother was watching from the side and felt very uncomfortable.
The children born to Bai Lu are so attached to her, at least they still have a mother to cling to.
But what about Bailu? Bailu doesn't even have a mother.
Bailu's father doesn't love her, and her mother doesn't love her either. She really doesn't know what to do.
In this world, there is not even a single relative who loves her.
And her brothers, as well as her daughters and sons, all need Bai Lu's love.
The Queen Mother looked at Bai Lu with eyes so gentle that they seemed to shed tears.
At this time, the Queen Mother was really upset.
She just wondered why she didn't adopt Bai Lu as her goddaughter before?
If I had adopted her as my goddaughter, how could things have turned out like this... Then Bai Lu would have a mother who loved her.
She really doesn't want to be just Bai Lu's sister anymore.
Oh, it doesn’t matter...It is said that an eldest sister is like a mother. If Bai Lu doesn’t have a mother, then her sister is almost like a mother.
Thinking of this, the Queen Mother felt relieved.
Bai Lu then picked up a large piece of lamb leg for the Empress Dowager and smiled at her, "Your Majesty, try this lamb leg. I saw you barely touched your chopsticks just now."
The Queen Mother smiled at Bai Lu and said, "I've been trying to lose weight recently."
"Okay, then you should eat more vegetable salad."
"Although, it seems that vegetable salad can't help with weight loss." The Queen Mother couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth.
Bai Lu raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, the Queen Mother is absent-minded and has something to hide from me. She doesn't care about losing weight or not."
The Queen Mother's expression suddenly changed and she looked up at Bai Lu.
Bai Lu's face was as gloomy as water...
