Chapter 155: The Fake Anchovy Storm (Part II)
"Is this an anchovy?" asked a lady.
"Yes, this is the most delicious braised anchovy I've ever had. If you go to Dinghai County one day, the shore is waiting for the fishermen's first net of fishing, you don't need to leave the dock to eat the simple steamed anchovies, when you do it, the anchovy is covered with a thin slice of ham, plus the light soy sauce, it doesn't take long to put it on the steamer, the light and delicate fish meat is dipped in soy sauce, the fish meat and the aroma of ham, fresh!"
One of the ladies from Dinghai County reminisced.
The person at the next table who didn't match her didn't refute it for the first time, and it seemed that no matter how much they met and fought, they all agreed with the famous dishes in their hometown.
"I hope to try steamed anchovy one day. The lady said.
At this time, they basically put down their chopsticks, the maids successively sent strong tea to rinse their mouths, and almost no one moved the dishes on the table.
The eunuch secretly gestured to the bird's nest, and she left behind the maid who followed the dishes and chopsticks.
She's done with it.
Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven.
Bird's nest reflected, she has been out of the limelight recently, and she has shown her father-in-law to the housekeeper and father-in-law to show the father-in-law in charge, and brushed a wave of presence in front of them, and then she needs to be low-key, but she hopes to get feedback, and her actions can enter the eyes of the eldest princess.
After the banquet, the ladies of each family went back to their respective mansions, and Liu Qingchi "bumped into" Cui Mengzhang, suggesting that she must not forget their agreement, and then took Liu Chengxin home.
Cui Mengzhang just gritted his silver teeth and swallowed a mouthful of blood, and he had to go back to discuss with Pei Shuo and his father Pei Zhengwen to see what he thought, it was the Hedong Liu family that was as famous as their Cui family, even if Liu Qingchi and Liu Chengxin were side branches, Liu Chengxin would marry Pei Shuo in the future, and their family would also provide support for Liu Chengxin and support Pei Shuo from the side.
How could such a good thing not befall her son?
Cui Mengzhang rubbed his handkerchief and got into the carriage to return to the Hou Mansion.
The guests left, but there were still six ladies left in the flower hall by the eldest princess to discuss important matters.
The eldest princess sits in the right seat, behind which are four Meilan chrysanthemum bamboos, a fine brush painting screen of day and night in all seasons, and the six ladies are seated according to their status.
The two ladies from Dinghai County were also left behind, one of their husbands is the leader of the fish market, and the aquatic products in the palace are purchased by him, and the other husband is an official in charge of Cao Yun, they are ignorant, and the other four husbands are either imperial merchants, or they are in charge of tea and wine, and oil candles are such practical four-grade officials, such as the six princesses, Cui Mengzhang, the step-wife of the founding marquis, and the wives of several families have not been able to stay.
What does the eldest princess want them to do?
"All the ladies here are all heroes among women, there are female shopkeepers who took over their father's ancestral business and supplied the north and south tea and wine to Ouchi, and there are virtuous ......helpers who assist their husbands with their own knowledge," the eldest princess pointed them out one by one, although she did not say the specific names and surnames, the faces of the mentioned ladies were shiny, and their waists were straighter.
"This palace has summoned you to hear your opinions. The life of the people in the market is much better than a few years ago, and the requirements for all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation have been improved, such as weddings, funerals, birthdays and other banquets, they either package the small restaurant, or invite the cook, but the price of the cook is different, some of the reputation is difficult to find their people, some are extremely extravagant and wasteful, the price is extremely expensive, and the people are discouraged. The palace plans to refer to the four divisions and six bureaus in the palace, and also open four divisions and six bureaus in the people, and at the same time collect the cooks and cooks in the capital into the four divisions and six bureaus to benefit the people, what do you think?"
A few ladies, you look at me, I look at you, and my heart is thinking quickly.
There are four divisions and six bureaus specially prepared for grand banquets, and there are divisions, kitchen divisions, tea and wine divisions, table plate divisions, fruit bureaus, candied fruit bureaus, vegetable bureaus, oil candle bureaus, incense medicine bureaus, and row bureaus, which are not available to some people. But what the eldest princess said later, the cook and the cook were included in the four divisions and six bureaus, and there was a standard for pricing, and some of the famous chefs no longer asked for prices, which was also a good thing for them.
Seeing that they were silent, the eldest princess simply named them: "Mrs. Li, Li Kui is an official of the Hanlin Division, and you know a lot more about the four divisions and six bureaus than other ladies, what do you think?"
The Hanlin Division enshrines wine, tea, fruits, ice and snow, and is responsible for the holy recreation and banquets. It is easy for others to be confused with the Hanlin Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, the Hanlin Scholar is the emperor's advisor, and the prime minister is mostly selected from the Hanlin Academy, and the Hanlin Division is also in charge of the name of the Hanlin Academy's deacon, and it is planned to take turns to stay in the Hanlin Academy.
Mrs. Li, who was named, was excited, thought about the words in her heart and thought about it, and then slowly said: "Back to the eldest princess, according to the courtiers, the four divisions and six bureaus of the people are beneficial to the people, but they don't have to be complicated. ”
In this way, to avoid redundant personnel, the people of the kitchen and tea and wine division are collected, sent out, and leave after doing things, without occupying an area.
Several ladies turned their brains flexibly, the eldest prince mainly opened the four divisions and six bureaus of the people, and called them to ask for advice, it was nothing more than the purchase plan of the four divisions and six bureaus to go from them, there are the names of the imperial merchants here, between the preserved fruits that supply the royal family and the ordinary preserved fruits on the street, which one will the people choose? They can sit here, proving that their husband's family or mother's family can promote the four divisions and six bureaus of the people, do you want to follow the eldest princess?
Mrs. Guan had to go back to discuss with the family member, but she didn't say anything for the time being.
The merchant woman was eager to get on the big boat of the eldest princess, and put forward several suggestions on the spot, mentioning the impact on the tooth shop - before that, the people wanted to find the cook to pay the fee to the tooth shop, and they pulled the line, which was a lot of money, if the civil four divisions and six bureaus were opened, the interests of the tooth shop would be damaged, and if the civil four divisions and six bureaus had no reputation or real power, they were afraid that they would die miserably.
The eldest princess: "I made a note, you are tired at the end of the day today, and the palace will not leave you to eat here." ”
Several ladies took their leave.
The eldest princess leaned on her head, and her father-in-law stood quietly, and she suddenly said: "It's really tiring to engage in these things, and this palace is still more suitable for quiet retirement." ”
"It's all the eldest princess who feels sorry for the saint. "The main pipe interface.
"On the one hand, the household department said that there was no money and no money, and on the other hand, he stretched out his hand to ask for silver flowers, forcing the royal brother to throttle, but he didn't want to open up, heh, I really feel sorry for the imperial brother!" "Did you present the recipe for the rose fragrance?"
"Presented it. ”
Eldest Princess: "That's good, by the way, what's the name of that maid who offered the recipe?" ”
"She's called Sango, but is that good? She's not from the palace. ”
"She worked hard to climb up, and there are still a lot of things she knows, why didn't this palace give her this opportunity. She's not from the palace, but her mother is. The eldest princess rubbed the jade pendant and smiled nostalgically.
Youwu, I brought you something delicious.
Young Wu, you will always see hope when you are alive, you are a sycamore, the phoenix soars in a thousand miles, not a sycamore, it is a symbol of auspiciousness......
It's a pity that the person who called her young is no longer there.
