Chapter 263: Honored Guest
Lan Xi was thinking about whether he should send a letter to his senior brother, and if so, let him and the sixth brother come back for the holiday. www.biquge.info Who knows, before this letter was delivered, Geng Xiwu arrived.
This time, he came to Huzhou, but it was to run an errand, not only he came, but also the people who came, and the king of Hejun. And Geng Xiwu was personally named by the king of the county to accompany the guard.
When he came to Huzhou with the king of the county, Lanxi was not surprised at all, after all, this time the lake was flooded, whether it was rescue or disaster relief, Huzhou's performance was remarkable. If it weren't for the fact that he was stumped by the matter of accountability, I was afraid that the king of Hejun would have come a long time ago, and there would be no need to delay it until most of the victims had already returned to their hometowns. It seems that this matter has been roughly settled. Asked, next, it's time to show credit, right?
Although he controlled the situation and saved the lives and net worth of many people, Lan Xi already felt very good, but because of this, it was also very good to be able to give his father a lot of credit and help him in the future.
The third lord took a few adults who served in the government to welcome out of the city gate early in the morning, but I was afraid that he would have to accompany the county king embankment, the resettlement place for the victims, and even the surrounding counties and towns to see this day. This was originally a common thing in Daqing officialdom, so Lan Xi didn't feel anything, just thinking that his father would return home very late today.
Obviously, the third wife also thought so, so she prepared to call a few daughters today and go to the upper room for dinner together. Who knows, the third wife was watching Lan Qin and Lan Yu flip the flower rope, and was about to ask Lan Xi what she wanted to eat, so that she could tell her to go down and let the kitchen prepare, but Song Ming hurriedly returned to the house, and brought the news that he and the king of the county were going to the house for dinner.
When Lan Xi heard this, he was stunned for a while. It is common for the third master and his colleagues to eat together, but they are mostly in restaurants outside, which are directly brought to the home to eat, and the time is so tight, even the preparation time is not much, with two points of casual unless it is good for the family. But this and the king of the county...... The royal family, His Majesty's imperial uncle, as far as she knows, seems to have no deep friendship with their family and her father, right? Why is it only half a day, and you have to come to the door?
Over there, the third lady was obviously stunned, and then asked, "Earlier, didn't the master say that people should go to Piaoxiangwu to book a table and wait for the table?" Isn't the Fragrance Dock fully booked today? Or is the owner happy and temporarily thanked? ”
Lan Xi glanced at the third lady very quickly, of course this was not literal. Piaoxiangwu is also one of the best restaurants in Huzhou City, and there are many people with heads and faces who have banquets here, not to mention that the owner is happy, even if it is for other great reasons, it will not be temporarily thanked. And to entertain distinguished guests like the king of the county, whether it is the third master or the owner of Piaoxiangwu, they dare not be a little lazy, most of them are cleared, how can there be a full house?
And Song Ming, this person, can become the confidant of the third master, of course he is not a stupid person, the words of the third lady mean that he can naturally understand, and he understands it at the moment, "The master originally explained that he was going to set up a banquet in Piaoxiangwu to entertain the prince, who knew that the prince knew, not to say that we suffered a disaster here, it was the time when a hundred wastes were waiting to be revived, and it was not a waste to be revived." The prince repeatedly refused, and the lord had to give up, so he proposed to go to our house for a homely meal. ”
Song Ming's words are very meaningful. Lan Xi's eyes flashed darkly, and she smiled slightly, and the third lady naturally understood. Song Ming saw that the third wife understood, so she quit the third wife and went back to restore the third master's life.
After Song Ming left, the third wife couldn't help sighing and said, "Your father is really, who is this and the king of the county, how can he bring it home casually?" If it's not well received, how can it be good? ”
This Lan Xi is not worried, her father is an old fox, if this matter will hinder it, he will definitely not do it. Therefore, Lan Xi pursed his lips and smiled, "Come to think of it, my father should be very close to the prince, and the prince should also be an easy-going person, so my father dared to invite people into the mansion, isn't there a word called love at first sight?" Come to think of it, that's how it should be. ”
In fact, the third wife also heard two points from Song Ming's words, and the third master has never acted properly, she is not really unable to let go, and now she is just complaining to her daughter. "It's just that how to prepare this meal is a little difficult. I don't know what taboos this prince has. ”
"Mother doesn't have to worry too much, doesn't she? Potluck. Then as long as you prepare it when you entertain guests as usual, we also have some specialty dishes in our house, as long as you are attentive, I believe that the prince can also feel our sincerity. Lan Xi is not too worried about this, not for it, just because she still has trust in her father, not to mention, there is still a senior brother by her father's side.
When the third lady heard this, her heart was also settled, "That's right." It just so happened that I just collected some lotus roots from the lotus pond yesterday, as well as the seasonal vegetables and fruits sent by Zhuangzi, but I can explain to Qiu Pozi and Hua'er to discuss, make a few new side dishes, and try them. Although this is commonplace, it is not good to be too simple and slow, how can you have eight cold and eight hot. No, I still have to discuss it with Mrs. Qiu. With that, the third lady stood up and walked quickly.
Seeing this, Lan Xi smiled slightly, raised her eyes, and saw that the two little ones had stopped turning over the flower rope and were blinking at her, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Thanks to the blessings of our distinguished guests, we can have a full mouth today." ”
As soon as the third lady explained the banquet properly, someone came to report that the distinguished guest had come to the door.
The third lady hurriedly straightened her dress and sideburns, and called Lan Xi, Lan Qin and Lan Yu to greet them at the second gate. Lan Xi lowered his eyes, but secretly looked up. After a while, I saw the third master and a beautiful bearded guest in a silk robe talking happily while walking towards this place. In her previous life, she was also a royal prince and a junior, and Lan Xi also had a few encounters with this prince of the county, but there was no intersection at that time, and the time was a little long, so she actually forgot what this old prince looked like. Separated by the barrier between the two worlds, now that she sees each other again, she suddenly remembers, yes, this is the king of Hejun.
His beautiful hair is very impressive. Like the three masters, the men who stood in the Daqing Dynasty seemed to like the subchin beard, but others only left a finger long, but the beard of this prince was left straight to the chest, which was smooth and smooth, which was not unbeautiful.
When Lan Xi was quietly looking at the beard of the king of the county, the third master and his party had already come closer, and the smoke on the side pulled her, she could come back to her senses, and the third lady on the side had already bowed her knees, and she hurriedly followed. Although there is some hectic in her heart, Lan Xi married the royal family in her previous life, and was strictly trained by those nurturing grandmothers before she got married, and later she was urged by Qin's mother, she did this, her every move was really demure and elegant, as if she was born so elegant, even the most picky grandmother in Beijing couldn't find the slightest mistake.
