Entering the main room, Li Wenxuan and Lin Ruoxi sat opposite each other at a round table made of rosewood. As soon as he sat down, he found that four cold dishes had been set up on the table early, and the maid who was waiting next to him saw the two masters seated, so she began to serve the food. One dish after another, Li Wenxuan had not moved his chopsticks a few times before he saw that there were more than a dozen beautifully made and well-made dishes on the table. I feel that this trend, it seems that there are still a lot of dishes that have not come up behind.

"Just me and you for a dinner, can I afford such extravagance and expense?" Li Wenxuan's face changed slightly, and he said calmly: "Plum blossom meal, five dishes and one soup are already very good." Even if we try to eat, we can't finish it. Now, how can you eat so many dishes? I'm afraid that many dishes make me unable to even move my chopsticks for a while, and I am already full. ”

"Xianggong, what you said is wrong." Lin Ruoxi, who was smiling, leaned back on the chair, and pointed to her slightly bulging belly with her right index finger and said, "Could it be that the fetus in the concubine's womb is not a human being?" ”

In this regard, Li Wenxuan, who was smiling on his back, with a tone of self-reproach, changed his words and said: "It's wrong for my husband." It should be our family of three. However, three people can't eat a table of feasts. ”

"That's a mistake. Now, you are the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and in the imperial court, you are also a decent high-ranking official. If our house still uses five dishes and one soup as the standard for two meals a day, then spreading the word will definitely cause others to laugh at it. Besides, it's not that our family can't afford to eat, so why do we have to be so shabby? Lin Ruoxi has long known that the extravagance in the circle of the powerful living inside and outside the capital has been popular for a long time. Now is different from the past, I have to follow the trend, and naturally I don't want her family to be underestimated by them, she can be regarded as a noble lady, after all, she was awarded the third rank by Emperor Jiajing.

Li Wenxuan, who knows well what she said, is also aware of the meritorious magnates, wealthy businessmen, and relatives of the emperor who live in the prosperous place at the feet of the Son of Heaven...... The vast majority of people have a pair of rich eyes. This trend of mutual comparison is not just the beginning of this dynasty, but has been around for a long time. The measure of respecting Luo Yi first and then respecting people has long been the value of judging a person in this era. Even small households, ordinary people, are deeply affected by this one trend and live for that face. What's more, it's a big door, so it's even more of a problem!

Lin Ruoxi, who saw through his man's thoughts, smiled and said with a set of words that could persuade him: "Since we can't eat, then there will be no waste." These dishes were withdrawn into the kitchen, and naturally they would be taken home by the mothers-in-law, the cooks, the inferior slaves, etc., or they would be eaten separately, and they would not be thrown directly into the swill bucket. Li Wenxuan, who suddenly realized, remembered the dishes that could not be eaten in the restaurant, even if he returned to the kitchen, he would be divided by the cooks, and he couldn't even touch the shopkeeper who greeted him in front.

Relieved in his heart, he picked up the wine glass on the table and made a dry, laughing at himself: "My husband has really been poor for too long, and I am not used to this luxurious life for a while." Lin Ruoxi, who smiled faintly, would not think that he was like that. She was not used to learning to cook at the beginning, after all, this meal had to be served with twenty or thirty dishes.

Holding the wine jug in both hands, he silently stepped forward to give Li Wenxuan the empty cup filled with wine, and quietly retreated to his original position. In order to enable her to get to the position of the second-class maid as soon as possible, Lu'er specially arranged for her to serve next to the master, after all, there will be more opportunities to show her strengths.

If the master is happy that day, he gives himself a little something, or thinks that he has done a good job and lifts it up, it is very good. Therefore, for all the maids who want to get ahead, this is a good errand even if they want to break through. However, there are too many people who want to do it, and very few of them really have the opportunity to do it.

Li Wenxuan, who has seen a handful, saw that once the plates could not be placed on the table, he saw that they were very step-by-step and regular After removing the dishes from the table, the masters did not like to move, and even the dishes that had not been touched. Noticing their move, he must have received pre-job training in advance for the maids on Lin Ruoxi's side.

After eating and drinking, Li Wenxuan and Lin Ruoxi went to the room next to them to taste tea, and talked about some things in the house, inside and outside the court, inside and outside the capital, and in the streets. The two chatted happily, and before they knew it, it was time to wash their feet and go to bed.

According to the different levels of the maids, starting from the kitchen until the most slippery foot washing water passed into the main house, that is, the transmission between low-level maids, middle-level maids, and high-level maids. Li Wenxuan, who was sitting on the chair, was here in Lin Ruoxi and could not enjoy the treatment of her personally washing her feet, after all, she was once the most favored daughter of the Lin family.

Only others serve her, so what about her to serve others? Even if she gets married, there are some changes in some aspects, but most of the habits are absolutely difficult to change. Li Wenxuan, who understands that this is called the easy change of the country, is a knowledgeable Taoist, Lin Ruoxi is not like Zhao Tianer, Qiuyue is born as a maid, and it is not like Su Meiniang, who used to be a romantic woman, and now she is a woman who has been completely good and wants to be a good wife and mother.

For this reason, Li Wenxuan, who does not force her to do it for herself, will also not unilaterally judge that only a woman who can wash the feet of her own man is a good woman. After completing the necessary work before going to bed one by one, the two of them who were already upstairs lay down on the bed. Zijuan was in charge, and instructed Ziyan and the others to remove the wooden basin for washing their faces and feet with them first, and the last one was to put down the curtains on the left and right sides of the bed, blow out the candles in the room, and turn around and go downstairs with a small candlestick in her right hand.

Li Wenxuan, who was holding Lin Ruoxi in his arms, lay flat on the bed, looked at the top of the bed with his eyes, and said with a smile: "So early, are we doing something we love to do?" ”

Lin Ruoxi, who pursed her lips and smiled, leaned her head on his shoulder, and her body snuggled into his arms, wrapped her hands around his waist, and said in advance: "As long as you are not afraid of hurting the unformed child in the belly of the concubine, then do what you want to do!" ”

Li Wenxuan, who didn't have to think about it, understood that her words were a disguised rejection of herself, and said bluntly: "Then forget it." ”
