Chapter Eighty-Nine: Banquet (Second Watch)

When Yan Zhi saw Aunt Yao, he immediately put on another gentle and courteous appearance.

Aunt Yao told him in detail what happened in the official media yamen today.

Yan Zhi shook his head when he heard this, and Aunt Yao's heart became colder and colder.

Finally, when Aunt Yao felt that this matter must be out of action and was disheartened, Yan Zhi spoke up:

"It's difficult, but it's not impossible."

"Really?" Aunt Yao immediately had her spirits.

Yan Zhi unfolded the folding fan in his hand with a snap, blocking Ruyu's face, revealing only a fox-like slender eye, but he didn't say a word.

"Cousin...... You don't want to sell it, if you have any ideas, let's talk about it quickly. ”

This twisted cousin came out of the mouth of Aunt Yao, who already had two children, and Yan Zhi's almost inaudible eyelids twitched.

Endure for a moment before saying:

"There is a way that money can make ghosts grind, that Master Zhangbo wants your cousin to have a good reputation and popularity, it is very simple to say, as long as you persuade the Manjia family to open the door, hold a few more banquets, and invite more poor people from the mud-legged Shu clan, they will definitely feel nostalgic."

Yan Zhi leaned close to Aunt Yao's ear and said:

"At the same time, you set up a porridge shed at the entrance of the county to give porridge to people who pass by, and this person has been passed on by word of mouth, who doesn't say that your Aunt Yao is benevolent and merciful? Then I'll invite some poor literati to write a few good articles and praise you......"

"In this way, it's hard to think of not having a good name!"

This Yan Zhi usually has no ability, if you want to talk about resourcefulness, there is still a little bit of resourcefulness.

He can also think of finding a literati to shout at Aunt Yao, which is the fastest way to accumulate a good reputation.

After listening to his words, Aunt Yao immediately couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately ignored him, hurriedly went to Manzhangzhi's courtyard, and repeated these words again.

Man Zhangzhi pondered for a long time, and also felt that this method was feasible, but it was too expensive.

"Husband, there is a way that you are reluctant to let the child trap the wolf, this time you will treat me as the whole, and our good days will be long in the future......"

Aunt Yao knew that if she entered the official media yamen, it would be a carp jumping over the dragon gate, so this time she would not give up if she did not achieve her goal, and immediately leaned over and exhaled in Man Zhangzhi's ear:

"Let me ...... tonight"

Man Zhangzhi was originally quite popular with her, but now looking at her withered yellow eyes, she is not as charming and moving as she was in the past, and she is not as smart as Aunt Deng.

"Just do as you say," Man Zhangzhi stood up, just avoiding her:

"You go and tell the old lady, but I agree, not limited to the flower viewing party, the lake party, the poetry and embroidery meeting, every three days to the neighborhood will have a banquet. As for soup kitchens, you can just call a servant to do it in your name. ”

Although Man Zhangzhi physically disliked Aunt Yao at this time, he was not ambiguous in his actions.

Because he knew that this matter couldn't help but be Aunt Yao's chance, and it was also an opportunity for his family.

Aunt Yao stood up straight, about to leave, but after thinking about it, she finally spoke:

"This time, the idea was all from my cousin Yan, I can see that he is a talented and strategist, why don't you stay in the house and do things in the future?"

Man Zhangzhi saw that Yan Zhi, and his impression was that he was a little white face who was cowering, with no good feelings or bad feelings, so he waved his hand and said whatever you want.

Yan Zhi relied on a few words to get such an idle errand, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart.

The wedding dress shop he and Yao Bin co-opened makes money, but neither of them is the kind of hard-working character.

They sold the shop not long ago.

It's just that I didn't let my cousin know, and I pretended to give a little silver every month and said it was money.

However, the shop was sold for a good price, Yao Bin took the money and went to gamble, and he was nostalgic for the small restaurant all day long.

Seeing that the silver flower was about to bottom out, it happened to be reused by my cousin.

He has a young and handsome white face, and he can confuse women the most on weekdays. It's just that he has another special habit, he can marry a girl from a low-income family as a wife, and throw it into the countryside to serve his father and mother.

Yan Zhi now sees that his cousin is a God of Wealth, and he does his best to serve when no one is around.

Aunt Yao has him by her side, and she has the hope of the official media yamen, and the originally withered spirit has come to life.

Let's say that the old lady got Manzhang's words, and sure enough, she instructed the Wang family and the Xie family to take the silver from the princess and send it to Aunt Yao.

Let her hold a banquet in the house.

The neighborhood was originally very puzzled, although this full family is rich, but it has always been above the top, and snobbish, usually only to tie up those high doors, now why suddenly want to engage in neighborhood love.

But I can't stop them from inviting again and again, thinking about such good things as eating wine and meat, and not going in vain.

For a time, the door of the house was wide open, and the neighborhood was full of joy every day.

Everyone began to say that Aunt Yao, the noble concubine of the Manchu family, was generous and a good person.

"Master, do you think Aunt Yao can really do it?" Hongyao was a little anxious, if she really became an official and became an official, wouldn't her master have to bow down when he saw her in the future.

Wang Yingning was silent.

"Right now, in the city and county, her reputation is sufficient, and this good popularity and reputation will not fall on her head."

Qingmei stomped her feet and said urgently.

"Good popularity is accumulated over time, like her, set up a few banquets, please eat some wine and meat, you can get good popularity, it is easy to think!"

Red Medicine said coldly.

"But she still gives porridge, what should I do?"

Qingmei hurriedly said: "Why don't we put something in her porridge......"

With a "snap", before Wang Yingning could speak, the red medicine slapped Qingmei's head.

"What do you say, if she eats that porridge, I won't stop you if you want to eat something, but it's for innocent people, you call it grass and people's lives!"

Hongyao is worthy of being taught in front of Mrs. Wang, and she has a straight bottom line in her heart about what to do and what not to do.

"Just some laxatives...... Where would it be fatal so severe. Qingmei rubbed the back of her aching head and muttered quietly.

However, she heard Hongyao say that she was drugged Aunt Yao...... She was a little impressed.

Wang Yingning looked at her eyes rolling, angry and funny:

"Don't think that you can fiddle with some flowers and plants, you will understand pharmacology, even if you really ask you to get the medicine out, then Aunt Yao will not let you be drugged so easily. I'm afraid that if she doesn't hurt a single hair, your little life will be lost. ”

Wang Yingning straightened up, listened to the bustling and lively sound outside, and said leisurely:

"You can't do anything about Aunt Yao, that's my business."

"Master......"

Hongyao and Qingmei sighed in unison, blaming them for being useless.

"A few days ago, I remember that Miss Qiao handed me a post saying that she wanted to talk about it, but I couldn't meet her because of a neck injury."

Wang Yingning took out a piece of flower paper, picked up a pen and wrote two lines of words, and handed her to Hongyaodao:

"Now that the door of the house is wide open and the neighbors are invited, let's also hold a banquet and invite Miss Qiao and those little sisters who have intersected in the past to talk about it."

Hongyao's face was overjoyed, and then he was a little embarrassed, there were too many good karma in the past, and there were many young ladies, our small courtyard is too small, I'm afraid I can't invite so many people to a banquet......

"Sister Hongyao is not happy and stupid, if you can't invite you once, you can divide it into several groups of invitations, and just hold a few more banquets." Qingmei smiled.

"Exactly, only a few people are invited at a time, and it is not easy to attract the attention of others."

Wang Yingning nodded and said:

"It's just that there are too few people in our courtyard, and you two will inevitably be tired at that time."

Hongyao didn't speak when he heard it, he shook his head with a smile, and Qingmei was quick to talk:

"Whatever the master said, this little thing is wrapped up in me! The left and right masters invited some girls and ladies to laugh and chat, there is no need to buy those big meat and oil food, let's make some delicate and small and sweet and delicious flower cakes, and then come to some sweet and intoxicating fruit wine, it is very easy! ”

Wang Yingning nodded when she heard this, her attention was good.

"In addition to fruit wine, of course, there must be tea, let's pick some fashionable melons, fruits, pine nuts, candied fruits or something to accompany tea." Red medicine also came up with ideas.

Wang Yingning looked out of the courtyard, the flowers and trees were verdant, and under the slanting sun, it was a little cool and a little far away.

Her yard is small, and the house is even smaller, if you invite someone to come, why don't you just go in the yard and pick a good time when it is not hot or sunny.

"How about we put a few more swings in the yard?"

Wang Yingning was inspired by the two maids and said softly.

"Good! At that time, the master and those ladies can still sit on the swing and laugh and chat! Qingmei clapped her hands and laughed.

"It's not easy for us to do this swing, I'll go to the little third son next door and the son to help." Qingmei smiled and was about to shoot someone's secret door.

"Hey......" Wang Yingning hurriedly grabbed her and said:

"This kind of thing, just bother the little third son, that son...... Forget it. ”

Xiao Jian, a relative of the emperor's family...... Tie the swing is really not compatible with him.
