Chapter 178: Difficult

An Rong instructed the maid on the side to go to the head of Fu and ask Qifu to bring someone to Linglong Garden.

Then he got up and said hello to the second wife.

The second wife looked An Rong up and down, and said with a smile, "Our four girls from Wu'an Houfu are really the same characters, even the eight chefs have been invited, and the second aunt wants to dip your light today and try the skills of the eight chefs." ”

An Rong's face was praised and his face was as weak as a mosquito snorting, "Second aunt, you know that you are joking with me, aren't you here to help, why do you seem to be here to taste the food?" ”

The second wife's face turned pale.

There were maids covering their mouths and laughing.

The fourth girl said well, there are two wives in the house to greet guests, there will definitely be a lot of women and guests today, how can they have time to sit down and eat peacefully.

On the one hand, I have to tell the maid to do things, and on the other hand, I have to chat with the guests, but I am afraid that the wine glass will not be able to leave my hand.

The second wife didn't know how to answer, and at this time the maid came in and said, "Fourth girl, Master Hou asked people to send dozens of jars of good wine back, so that you can find a way to purify ......." ”

An Rong's eyes widened wider and wider, and there was a faint urge in his heart.

Yes, she wanted to squirt blood, why didn't she say it yesterday, she said it yesterday, she got it overnight, why is she in a hurry now?

However, Hou Ye's move revealed a piece of news, there were many people who came to the Hou Mansion in the afternoon, and they were all in prominent official residences, and the little wine in his yard was not enough at all.

Originally, when a concubine got married, it was just a matter of letting the lady or the manager give a gift, and the preferences and many things came together.

The Hou Mansion should have put on a big banquet before.

Now, An Rong has no other way but to nod.

Shen Anxi stood aside, his cheeks were crimson, and he pouted and said, "Big sister's wedding banquet, I'm afraid how many people will be envious." ”

Shen Anxi didn't want Shen Anyun's banquet to be too sensational, she didn't deserve it.

But at this moment, Shen Anyun was crazy, and the more grand the wedding banquet was held, it meant that the Hou Mansion took more fancy to her family affairs.

The maid's eyes lit up with envy, "Big girl, the wedding banquet has prepared a full fifty tables, last year's old lady was only twenty tables, when the old lady was alive, it was only thirty tables, originally the third wife only prepared thirty tables, and then added twenty tables." ”

The maid on the side hurriedly stepped forward to congratulate, "That is, so many guests are coming, today is the day of the dowry, and the concubine's dowry must not laugh at the dead, and the old lady will definitely be the master to add twenty or thirty to the girl." ”

"Twenty or thirty is enough, if you don't say anything, it will be the same as the girl who came out," Chunlan said with a smile, "I can't guarantee that the four girls and five girls will marry in the future, and they won't be as beautiful as the big girls." ”

Not to mention the marriage, can you still invite eight chefs at that time, and can you still have a banquet of fifty tables? No.

Shen Anyun's face was rosy with joy, and she circled around the room.

Matsuzuru-in.

The second wife asked Shen Anyun about her dowry, and the old lady said one hundred and forty-eight, and the second wife looked stunned.

"The dowry will be issued in the afternoon, and the dowry will be sent to the Xuanping Marquis Mansion in Kyoto, our Hou Mansion has invited eight chefs, and the reputation has risen, how many people are waiting and watching, is there less than one hundred and forty-eight dowries?" The second wife said.

Where does the old lady not know that these dowries are too few, but what can be done, the dowry list has been sent to the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, and Shen Anyun does not have the identity of a concubine, so it is impossible to add a dowry.

The third lady sat aside and said with a smile, "The eldest girl's dowry is a little incompatible with the scale of the banquet, but how many people at this banquet are coming to the Hou Mansion to marry their daughters, to congratulate the Hou Ye and the third master on their promotion, and even more to the eight chefs. ”

The second wife swallowed, she didn't know that she was congratulating the Hou Ye and the third master, but she was just uncomfortable, their master was not promoted!

The room was discussed, and in the end, Shen Anyun's marriage remained unchanged.

Outside, the little maid hurriedly came in and said, "Old lady, the second wife of Xuanping Houfu Lin is here again." ”

The third lady was slightly stunned, and said in surprise, "At this time, the Xuanping Hou Mansion should not be more idle than our Hou Mansion, why did you come to our Hou Mansion?" ”

Marrying a daughter, I am busy today, and tomorrow will be more leisurely.

Marry a daughter-in-law, be idle today, and be busy tomorrow.

The old lady waved her hand, and the maid went to invite Mrs. Lin to come in.

This time, Second Mrs. Lin came, but her face was full of spring breeze, and she didn't have the slightest depression that was neglected, and she smiled when she entered the door, "The Hou Mansion is so busy today, I'm really embarrassed that I'm still here to disturb." ”

The old lady smiled and invited her to sit.

Mrs. Lin Er is happy, the Xuanping Hou Mansion is just marrying a flat wife, look at the battle of the Wu'an Hou Mansion, invite eight chefs, and it is a fine wine, I heard the Hou Ye say, almost all civil and military officials will come to the Hou Mansion, what a prominent thing?

The Hou Mansion of Wu'an is busy, she knows that the Hou Mansion of Wu'an is not manpowered, and she knows even more.

If there are not enough people, it is extremely easy to go wrong, so here she is again.

smiled and took out three silver tickets from his arms, and said with a smile, "The Hou Mansion attaches so much importance to this family business, and the previous seventy percent of the dowry seems to be less, so my sister-in-law asked me to send three thousand taels of silver tickets." ”

The third lady was slightly stunned.

The Xuanping Hou Mansion added a dowry, and the Hou Mansion must add a dowry, this is the rule.

The third lady looked at the old lady, the old lady played with the Buddha beads in her hand, smiled and waved her hand, and the third lady accepted the dowry that was made up.

Second Mrs. Lin took the tea and sipped lightly, and said with a smile, "The Hou Mansion of Wu'an is arrogant, and I actually invited eight chefs, and my Xuanping Hou Mansion only invited three cooks in the Drunken Immortal Building, so I am afraid that it will be difficult to reach the Hou Mansion of Wu'an." ”

Generally, when getting married, the man's banquet should be grander, after all, it is the son who marries the daughter-in-law.

However, the prince of Xuanping Hou is a little different, he is not married to a wife, but a flat wife, this banquet should leave room for it, and it should be higher than that of Wu'an Houfu.

Who would have thought that the banquet of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion would be so grand, and directly compared the Marquis of Xuanping's Mansion.

Thinking of tomorrow's banquet, everyone is praising the Hou Mansion of Wuan, pointing at the banquet prepared by the Hou Mansion of Xuanping, picky here, dissatisfied there, and the Hou Mansion of Xuanping is panicked.

Both happy and angry.

I am glad that the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion has taken a fancy to this family business, and his love for Shen Anyun will definitely help the prince in the future, but he is angry, why don't he want to think about the difficulties of the Marquis of Xuanping?

The third wife listened to the words of the second Mrs. Lin, raised her eyebrows, and said with a smile, "Originally, the Hou Mansion only planned to invite the cook of the Drunken Immortal Building, but something went wrong halfway, and the cook was invited by the prince of Zhuang Wang, so he wanted to invite two of the eight restaurants at will. ”

"It's just that I didn't expect the eight major restaurants to give us Wu'an Houfu face so much, and they all came, and Second Mrs. Lin also knew that the Hou Ye and our master were promoted, and they didn't set up two tables of banquets properly, so they did it together, and it wasn't all for the eldest girl."

Let's make it clear first, lest I go back to see the dowry and feel that the Hou Mansion has made the wrong dowry.

Second Mrs. Lin was slightly stunned, and then smiled, "That's a good thing to say, but outsiders won't think like this, I only know that the Hou Mansion takes a fancy to this family affair and marries a daughter, but according to the rules, it should be me Xuanping Hou Mansion to be more grand." ”

"The Hou Mansion does this, but I Xuanping Hou Mansion is embarrassed, Hou Ye's face is not small, but it is difficult to invite back the eight chefs at one time, so let me ask, can the Hou Mansion persuade the eight chefs, Ming'er let them go to the Xuanping Hou Mansion, plus the Drunken Immortal Building, it will be in order."

The third wife looked at Mrs. Lin with wide eyes, and there was a sneer in her eyes, this in-law is really interesting, she can't invite the eight chefs, and she loves face, she doesn't want to lag behind the Hou Mansion, so she actually came to the door to let the eight chefs go.

The third wife thought that the Xuanping Hou Mansion must have heard about the eight chefs cooking for free, and the three thousand taels of silver sounded like a dowry, but in fact, let the Hou Mansion let the eight chefs go on the face of the three thousand taels.

The Busy Hou Mansion helped, but the money was sent to the Xuanping Hou Mansion as a dowry, and this abacus was crackling.

The third lady glanced at the old lady, and then smiled at the second Mrs. Lin and said, "This favor, I'm afraid my Hou Mansion can't help, since it's my in-laws, I won't hide some things from you, these eight chefs are not for the sake of the face of the Hou Ye, but for the sake of the face of the fourth girl and the second young master Shen." ”

"The banquet of the Hou Mansion will be so big and so lively, it is completely unexpected for me and the old lady, and it will make the in-laws embarrassed, I'm really sorry, the eight chefs are here today, it is completely something, please invite them to the Xuanping Hou Mansion, my Hou Mansion does not have such ability."

"Can't you let the fourth girl and the second young master Shen help?" Second Mrs. Lin didn't give up, as long as the elders said a word, the juniors still had a reason to disobey?

Only unwillingness.

The third wife shook her head, with a look of embarrassment, "Second Mrs. Lin doesn't have to embarrass us, although we are elders, we can't ignore the reputation of juniors." ”

Before the third lady's voice fell, the little guy outside hurriedly came in and said, "Old lady, Drunken Immortal Lou sent a greeting post, and I also want to come to the Hou Mansion and try it out with the eight chefs." ”

Second Mrs. Lin was so surprised that she almost didn't pop her eyes out.

Drunken Immortal Building is very arrogant, not anyone who invites it can be invited, but today he took the initiative to send it to the door, it must be for the wine, what kind of wine is it, so many restaurants are competing for it?

The third lady put on a face and sneered, "Didn't he disdain our Wu'an Hou Mansion in Drunken Immortal Tower, and said that the good cooks could fly, what are you doing at this time?" ”

Second Mrs. Lin looked shocked, the Drunken Immortal Building is not an ordinary restaurant, and she was sent to the door today, but she was actually turned away, so she was not afraid that Wu Anhou would go to the Drunken Immortal Mansion and be turned away?

The third wife is very angry, she didn't give face to the Hou Mansion at the beginning, and she couldn't invite her to come to the door, so what are you doing now? Not uncommon!

The corners of the second wife's mouth hooked, and the hand painted with bright red Dankou on her hand flicked the teacup, and said with a smile, "Third brother and sister, don't be so angry, people will always make mistakes, and it is most important to correct when you know your mistakes, besides, Zuixianlou is the largest restaurant in Kyoto after all, and our Hou Mansion is indeed inferior to Zhuangwangfu, and it is understandable that people pick guests." ”
