Chapter 260: Yes
Entering the wax moon, the flavor of the New Year is strong, and the wax moon in the capital is busier than that of Qinghe City, and the New Year festival of the palace is more popular than the Zhen Mansion. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info so since entering the wax moon, Zhen Wanyi has to spend more than an hour in Tingyuxuan every day, this is the first time Zhen Wanyi represents the Rongwang Mansion and the mansions to deal with, there is no precedent to follow, can only be based on the relationship and level with the mansions, the New Year's gifts sent to the mansions are added and deleted, deleted and added, and considered and considered.
Until the day before Laba, the New Year's gift to be sent to various provinces has not been decided, but Laba porridge has to be prepared, Laba does not need to enter the palace this year, this news is really a thing worth celebrating for Zhen Wanyi, so two flavors of Laba porridge were prepared early, a salty Bazhen porridge, and a sweet eight-treasure porridge. It starts boiling in the middle of the night, and before dawn in the morning, the courtyard of the large kitchen floats with a refreshing sweet fragrance.
There are six cauldrons in the yard, and there are two mothers in Tsing Yi in front of each cauldron who are busy, and Yingyue is watching the crystal clear, soft and fragrant laba porridge into the food box, "The mothers are all numb, don't spill the edge of the bowl and stain the food box." ”
Several mothers who couldn't see their facial features clearly in the heat smiled: "Mother Li, don't worry, what the slaves and maids are used to doing will never damage the reputation of our Rongwang Mansion." Yingyue's husband Li Qiang did not work as an errand in the palace, but was arranged by Zhen Wanyi to work in the shop, and the married Yingyue followed her husband's surname, and the palace called Mother Li, and the red sleeves called Li Qiang's family when she joked, but Zhen Wanyi felt awkward and kept calling Yingyue, so several big girls in Jinxiang Courtyard also called Sister Yingyue.
Yingyue smiled when she heard this: "Mothers, I am relieved to do things." Isn't that my greed for a taste of my mother's craft first?"
As soon as the words fell, two mothers immediately took the bowl and sent it to Yingyue, "Mother Li, try my eight treasures porridge, they are all made according to the instructions of the cherry girl, and I have never made salty porridge in previous years, not to mention that I put so many materials, I really don't know the bottom of my heart, you can help me point and point." ”
Yingyue took the bowl, "This eight-treasure porridge was thought up by the princess, I have made it a few times in my hometown before, and the old lady and several masters like it very much, so this year I will let the house try to make a pot, if you don't like this taste, eat eight-treasure porridge, it is sweet." I tasted it and said with a smile: "It's not worse than the cherry, the heat is also good, the sticky and soft glutinous, the bacon is boiled, it's very flavorful, it's very good." ”
Another mother-in-law is holding the eight-treasure porridge, "Then Mother Li, help try this eight-treasure porridge, these beans have been soaked all night, and I don't know if they are cooked?"
Yingyue took the bowl again and tasted it, "Mother Zhou's porridge is also very good, this color matches so beautifully, even if you don't like sweetness, you will taste two bites." Today's laba porridge was made very successfully, and I have worked hard for all mothers, so I will ask the princess to reward my mother. ”
Several mothers were responding modestly when they heard a burst of laughter, "Yo, it's quite lively, what are you talking about, and it makes me happy." ”
Yingyue turned her head, nodded and smiled at Mother Qian, who came over: "Mother Qian is here, just right, today's Laba porridge is ready, is my mother delivering it here, or going to the front to pick up the porridge?"
Mother Qian took out a handkerchief and covered her mouth and smiled, "Since there is Mother Li's arrangement here, it is inconvenient for me to interfere, and I don't bother the two masters, so today's Laba porridge will bother Mother Li." ”
Yingyue blinked, "Since Mom said so, then I won't postpone it, it just so happens that the red-sleeved girl is okay today, so let her go to the front to help pick up the porridge." The princess likes to take her out of the house, so she lets her receive mothers from various provinces there, and also recognize people. ”
Mother Qian looked at Yingyue fixedly, and the smile on the corner of her mouth faded, "It's okay for Mother Li." ”
The mothers-in-law who were boiling porridge below looked at the two people who were also dressed in red jackets and white silk skirts, their eyes rolled wildly, and they had an inexplicable excitement in their hearts, and they had a feeling that they had finally come and finally met.
Mrs. Zhao, the housekeeper in the kitchen, walked out quickly, "Oh, Mother Qian, you can come, I just prepared breakfast here, and it's time for the ceremony, I brought pastries, let's eat while walking." "Holding a white porcelain plate in one hand, and holding money in the other, my mother. He turned back to Yingyue and said, "Mother Li, there is breakfast in the kitchen, you eat first and then get busy." ”
Yingyue nodded, watching the two people who were also wearing red jackets and white silk skirts walking farther and farther, her eyes flashed, and she turned her head and said: "Here all the mothers will work hard, first put the porridge in a box, I will send the porridge to the princess first, and the porridge in each courtyard will be sent again." ”
In the voice of everyone, Yingyue walked to Jinxiang Courtyard with the little maid who carried the food box, and when she arrived at the gate of Jinxiang Courtyard, Yingyue took the food box, "Go and tell the red-sleeved girl what happened just now." ”
Watching the little maid enter the red-sleeved house, before turning from the corridor into the main house, Qi Rong rarely had breakfast with Zhen Wanyi at the same time, Yingyue carried the food box and asked An: "Slave maid, please good morning to the princess." ”
Zhen Wanyi put down her chopsticks, "Get up, are you carrying laba porridge in your hand?"
Yingyue got up and walked to the table of the Eight Immortals, opened the food box, took out two bowls and put them in the middle of the table, "Well, it's already boiled, and it tastes good, no worse than the cherry boil." The slave maid instructed the mothers in the big kitchen to pack the boxes. ”
Zhen Wanyi first helped Qi Rong scoop a small half bowl of Bazhen porridge before saying: "Pay attention when sending porridge, don't forget to return it when someone else sends it, it would be too rude." ”
Yingyue said with a smile: "The slave maid is here to ask the princess for someone for this matter, the slave maid is sending porridge in the big kitchen, and she wants to ask for red sleeves to pick up the porridge, she often walks outside with the princess, and it is good to take this opportunity to recognize more people." ”
Zhen Wanyi nodded, "Okay, the girl with red sleeves has a good memory, so let her go." After thinking for a while, he ordered: "You can send the porridge to the red sleeves first, so that if there is a mansion outside the budget list to deliver the porridge, people can take it back directly, saving you another trip." ”
Yingyue nodded, "Then Mrs. still let Lianxiang send it?"
Zhen Wanyi nodded, "Starling likes Bazhen porridge the most, put more on it." ”
Yingyue looked at the lotus fragrance standing on the side, although it was also a red jacket and white skirt, but the sleeves and skirts were all added with a pattern of branches, compared to the dress of the same fabric on her body, it looked much more exquisite, especially after carefully dressing up, her face was more beautiful and plump, and a trace of different color flashed under her eyes, this lotus fragrance was eighteen years old. "The slave and maid are saved, the eighth master loves to drink eight treasures porridge, but the fourth master loves to drink eight treasures porridge, and the slaves and maids have ordered people to install it, so the lotus fragrance will go with me." ”
Zhen Wanyi nodded, and Lianxiang retreated with Yingyue.
