Chapter 101 The fragrance of flowers is not afraid to hide deep (2)
"I don't know what you two like to eat, this refreshment is made according to the roses of Dingxi's specialty, and you will eat and see. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Lan Qiduo glanced at Tian Shuzheng without a trace after speaking, if he was really an elm head who couldn't think of anything, then the things handed over to him in the future would have to be done.
Fortunately, Tian Shuzheng listened to Lan Qiduo's words and subconsciously glanced at Lan Qiduo, and saw that Lan Qiduo was looking at him, so he hurriedly said: "Her Royal Highness the princess is serious, the grass people and their sister and sister-in-law have had lunch, and they only think that it is a rare delicacy, and the refreshments must be good." ”
Lan Ziduo smiled silently, and held out his hand to signal them to taste it.
Most men don't like sweets very much, so Lan Qiduo saw that Tian Shuzheng and Wu Bai both picked up rose wine, while Tian Shuqing used rose pastries, Lan Qiduo kept observing their expressions and found that Tian Shuzheng and Wu Bai didn't seem to react much, but Tian Shuqing's face was soft.
Lan Qiduo chose a piece of rose cake by himself, the cake that has only been out of the pot for a short time, it is still warm, and the sweet taste of the roses in it has just been bitten open, Lan Qiduo smiled slightly, today's rose cake is very delicious.
She casually asked, "What do you think of the three of you?" ”
Except for Tian Shuzheng, all of them thought that Her Royal Highness the princess was just chatting with them, so Tian Shuqing naturally laughed and said: "The rose cake is sweet but not greasy, soft and chewy, and it is worthy of being made in the palace of Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
Wu Bai also agreed: "The wine is clear and transparent, the ice is clear and jade, and the quality is excellent." ”
Lan Qiduo smiled and said, "What does the eldest cousin think?" ”
Tian Shuzheng groaned slightly: "Although the quality is high, the taste is not good. ”
Tian Shuqing couldn't help but be anxious, it was just a sip of wine, how could the eldest brother say that, what if he annoyed Her Royal Highness the princess?
Wu Bai secretly tugged at his wife's hand, his uncle has never been a person who talks about it, since he said this, it shows that he has his own purpose!
Sure enough, Lan Qiduo was very interested and said, "Then what do you say is not good?" ”
"Although the rose wine is sweet in the mouth, but a little taste will find that this sweetness is slightly bitter, and after drinking the wine, you will find that the bitterness is more and more obvious, this rose fragrance is not strong, just now His Royal Highness bit the rose cake when the fragrance even overshadowed the fragrance of rose wine, this is definitely not a good thing for a flower wine."
Lan Qiduo couldn't wait to laugh out loud, this rose wine was the wine that people were looking for in the northwest from the beginning of her work on the rose garden in Dingxi, and the rose wine she found was not the only one, but Lan Qiduo found that this wine was the best among so many rose wines, there was no way, Lan Qiduo had to choose the tallest one among the short people and reluctantly take it out, but she didn't expect Tian Shuzheng to really not disappoint her!
"A connoisseur is indeed a connoisseur! Hongu didn't see the wrong person! ”
Lan Qiduo was very happy, she stood up from the chair at once, and the three people below saw Lan Qiduo standing up and hurriedly stood up, Lan Qiduo was very excited and said: "I don't know if cousin Tian knows what roses can do?" ”
Tian Shuqing and Wu Bai are not stupid people, they were curious at first that the almost singleness of the palace with Her Royal Highness the princess was all made of roses, but now they understand that Her Royal Highness the princess is not drunk, thinking that the eldest brother runs a rouge spice shop, and he knows more about these than others, Tian Shuqing doesn't know why he is a little excited!
"Roses have a wide range of uses, such as spices, fat powder, and various foods, and can also be used in medicine."
"So what can you do if you cook food?"
Tian Shuzheng said without thinking: "In addition to the common food on the market brought out by His Royal Highness today, some people in places like Dali Mansion in the southwest will use roses to make rose steamed buns, rose stuffing, rose dew, rose sauce, most of these kinds sold on the market are produced in the hands of people in the southwest, they have secret crafts in their hands, these things are much more delicious than other places, and the roses in most places always have an astringent taste, but the ones made in the southwest are not." ”
Lan Ziduo nodded in satisfaction.
Tian Shuzheng continued: "On the other side of the sea, there is a group of Westerners and Japanese people, who will decorate their plates with roses when they eat in the morning, which is very popular. They also have chefs who have the ingenuity to put roses into a kind of pastry called cake, which I heard that men and women are especially fond of when they are married. ”
"Rose porridge, rose snacks, flower and fruit tea, moon cakes, rose vinegar, rose tea can all be eaten with roses."
Tian Shuzheng said this call, and the other three were a little fascinated, they didn't think that it was just a small rose, there were so many kinds of food just to eat, and the Westerner used roses to decorate the dinner plate, Lan Qiduo even felt that it seemed to be a good idea? Why don't you try decorating your breakfast tomorrow with fresh roses?
And Tian Shuzheng is a well-informed person, which can be regarded as an eye-opener for Lan Qiduo!
Lan Qiduo looked at Tian Shuzheng fixedly, and the usual words stopped in Tian Shuzheng's ears like thunder: "Then if this palace says that you will unify the entire rose market in the northwest, and then carry them forward, so that the people of Dingxi can live a better life, do you dare to come down?" ”
Tian Shuzheng stood up with a "hoof", his expression was excited, as if he learned that Lan Qiduo asked him to take over the position of the head of the Tian family, his whole face turned red and he didn't know what to say.
"I ...... I, the grass people, willing! The grass people promised! ”
How big of an industry does it have to be to unify the market in the northwest? How many roses does that have to be? How many people are needed to operate? Tian Shuzheng felt excited when he thought about it, his grandfather had already met that the Tian family would fall after his death, so he handed over the most inconspicuous property in the entire family to him, not without a glimmer of hope! Now he is glad that he has not given up on himself over the years, and he has not handed over his shops to others to take care of!
Lan Qiduo can't understand this kind of kindness like meeting Bole, and even she won't feel this way in her life, but it doesn't prevent her from feeling Tian Shuzheng's agitated mood!
Tian Shuqing and his wife were also shocked and inexplicable, so they ...... With just these few words, Her Royal Highness the princess casually handed over such a big matter to the eldest brother? How it feels like a dream.
Tian Shu's skin was red, his eyes were glaring, and finally he suddenly knelt down at Lan Qiduo, and his head slammed to the ground as if it was not his own: "Her Royal Highness Princess Xie is appreciated, and she will do her best to live up to Her Royal Highness's trust!" ”
Startling Lan Qiduo, Xiao Tuxi has been watching from a short distance, and immediately rushed to Lan Qiduo, seeing that it was a man kowtowing to their Royal Highness, a little inexplicable, before he came back to his senses, he saw that this man suddenly hugged the chair next to him and cried, this time not to mention Xiao Tuxi, even the people guarding outside rushed in, and saw a man crying uncontrollably!
Faced with the cry of a big man without an image, Lan Qiduo felt a little helpless for the first time, Tian Shuqing was still a little embarrassed at first, after all, it was his eldest brother, but when Tian Shuzheng was crying and forgetting his feelings, Tian Shuqing felt that his heart was also sour.
Such a scene Lan Qiduo is naturally not suitable to stay for a long time, and give everyone a gesture, and they are left in the room, Tian Shuzheng and Tian Shuqing and his wife.
"I was so scared to death just now, he suddenly cried all of a sudden!"
Xiao Tuxi was a little incredible, Lan Qiduo was silent for a long time, thinking that Tian Shuzheng's excited appearance suddenly had some understanding, which was a relief that his wish had been achieved.
"Don't bother their brothers and sisters, when they want to come over themselves, you can just bring them over."
Lan Qiduo didn't go far and stayed in the West Flower Hall, she knew that she was betting right, and Tian Shu was a very suitable person.
Because of this matter that had plagued Lan Qiduo for half a month, Lan Qiduo only felt relaxed for a while.
"Your Highness, what should the eldest master of the Tian family do with his beloved concubine?"
Suddenly, someone came to report it, and Lan Ziduo almost forgot about the two of them.
"The person who took over her came, so naturally he followed that person, is this palace going to take care of the rest of her life?"
The person who replied snorted and didn't speak, but in his heart he scolded the person who temporarily said that he had a stomachache and pushed this errand to her, because he knew that His Royal Highness had a bad impression of this woman, and asked her to come to the top tank!
"The slave and maid understand."
Lan Qiduo looked at this servant girl with a very honest appearance, and the corners of her mouth hooked and said, "How much did that woman spend on asking a doctor in the house recently?" ”
"This, the slave didn't calculate carefully."
This woman is not in her hands, and the money for taking medicine is also ordered by the steward, she only needs to run errands.
"I didn't calculate it carefully, so I asked the steward to calculate it carefully, how much money was spent on the decoction, how much money was spent on three meals a day, and the money for the house in the palace was not counted? I think that this palace is a good hall, and who has to take it in and raise it for free? There are also a few maids who serve her, how much they eat, how many days they live, they are all clear, and if they are less than a penny, they will let the steward pay for it themselves! ”
Lan Qiduo was like a calculating philistine businessman, the maid who listened was dumbfounded, and finally understood a little under Lan Qiduo's faint gaze!
"The slave understands it, and she will definitely live up to His Highness's trust!"
Seeing the handmaid's knowing expression, Lan Qiduo said with satisfaction: "Well, it's good to understand, what has that woman done recently?" ”
"If you go back to Your Highness, after she fainted that day, the housekeeper asked someone to carry her to the guest room, Your Highness didn't know that her maids were useless one by one, the master had a fever, and no one came out to say anything, if it wasn't for the steward who wanted to drive them away in the past, only to find that people had a fever, I'm afraid that people were stupid, and they didn't dare to speak out!"
Being a slave and maid is the most despised for such peers, disloyal and unjust.
Lan Qiduo raised the corners of his mouth, where did those people care about the life and death of their masters, but people all seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and they probably found that no one in this capital protectorate could protect them, so try not to make trouble!
"Later, the steward hired a doctor for her, and as soon as she woke up, she pitifully asked the steward to inform her master." Her mother said that this kind of woman is the most foxy, and told her to talk less when she was fine.
Lan Qiduo was interested to know how his steward did.
"If she didn't receive the instructions from His Royal Highness, she naturally wouldn't listen to her, so she asked the slaves she brought along the way to report to the eldest master of the Tian family, as for where the slaves went, the slaves and maids don't know." Anyway, those people still haven't moved.
"The steward is doing a good job, and you're not bad."
Lan Qiduo did not hesitate to praise herself, although this maid who often ran errands was not the first time to see Lan Qiduo, but it was the first time she was appreciated by Her Royal Highness the princess, and she immediately smiled: "I don't deserve His Highness's praise, these are the duties of slaves." ”
"Xiaoping!"
"The slave is here."
"This palace remembers that there is a rose candy today, and the reward is given to the steward and this girl......"
"Slave Cuiling."
"Well, this palace remembers you, Cui Ling." Lan Qiduo was in a good mood at this time, and he was also kind to the people below.
"Your Highness." Cui Ling went down after speaking, she decided not to meet the person who asked her to run errands, this rose candy is not cheap in Beijing, His Royal Highness rewarded her with a big bag today, and she will take it home for her younger brothers and sisters to eat, there is food and face, there is nothing better than this, and the little displeasure before was dissipated in Lan Qi's praise.
It's just that she doesn't really understand what His Highness said, does that person live in the mansion and still have those people's money? Isn't Your Highness the most generous? But it doesn't matter if she doesn't understand, she just told the steward as it was!
Over there, Tian Shuzheng's brother and sister also came to see Lan Qiduo, at this time Tian Shuzheng's mood stabilized a lot, he was a little embarrassed to see Lan Qiduo, today really surprised him one after another, and the mood that had been suppressed for more than ten years broke out today when he got what he wanted!
"In the future, you go to the outer courtyard to find the people of the farming room, and they will naturally have someone to receive you and tell you specific things, the palace has already given the regulations to the people of the farming room, and they will tell you if you have specific jurisdiction, but you will report to the palace once a month in the future, and the palace will know how it is going."
"The grass people obey His Highness's orders."
"Also, when you want to go out in a while, remember to ask the steward to take your father and your father's concubine away, this palace doesn't want to see them again! Tell your father, let his concubine recuperate well, don't come out and walk around if it's okay, the next time his concubine appears in front of the palace again, the palace is not just as simple as kneeling! ”
Tian Shuzheng and Tian Shuqing, the brothers and sisters, immediately knelt down for Lan Qiduo in shame, they were even a little grateful at this time, Her Royal Highness the princess avoided Wu Bai when he said these words.
"Thank you Your Highness for your understanding, the women ......"
"Don't talk about these scenes, always go to the palace to see you fit, and bring your family to the house to play next time you come."
"Your Highness." Except for Xie Zi, the brothers and sisters really don't know what to say! (To be continued.) )
