123 Buffet

There is nothing special about pastries and wines, the focus is on the utensils used to place the pastry and wine.

Wine glasses, three-tiered silver plates, flower decorations, knives, forks, chopsticks, thin plates and dishes, isn't this a Western-style buffet?

Lin Meiyi raised her eyes to look at everyone, except for Mrs. Wang and Yang Qingqing, the rest of the people were full of surprise as if they had seen such a banquet for the first time.

Of course, in this surprise, there is also a trace of admiration and yearning for the life of the upper aristocracy.

Because, this kind of banquet method is only circulated among the upper nobles, and ordinary people can't learn it.

Not to mention anything else, these glass wine glasses are simply not available to ordinary people.

And these utensils taken out by Mrs. Wang are her dowry, a complete set of utensils, which can only be obtained by people with specific status.

When Mrs. Wang saw everyone's expressions, her heart was happy, and she explained with a smile:

"It's called a buffet, and everyone can take whatever they want to eat, and it's not fun."

"Speaking of which, this buffet was initiated by the empress, and my grandmother had the honor to serve by the empress's side, and she learned how to come out, and then passed it on to a few of our sisters, and it was put out today for everyone to taste a novelty."

is simply an introduction, but the status of the Wang family is clearly placed in front of everyone.

As a result, Mrs. Zheng, who has been sitting at the top as the wife of the state capital, only feels like sitting on pins and needles.

Because Mrs. Wang bluntly said that she is not worthy of sitting in this position!

Fortunately, Yang Qingqing soon led everyone to take the dishes to pick up their own food, and the atmosphere became lively, but no one paid attention to her seat anymore.

After Yang Qingqing greeted the young ladies of the family, she turned her head and found that Lin Meiyi was already sitting in the corner with dishes and eating by herself, so she immediately relieved herself, took half a pot of sweet syrup and walked over with a smile.

Zhao Xiangling was originally sitting next to Lin Meiyi, but seeing this scene, she consciously picked up the plate and retreated to the back, giving up her seat to Yang Qingqing.

Yang Qingqing smiled at her gratefully, sat down next to Lin Meiyi, and while talking, she took the water cups of the three of them in front of her and divided the sweet syrup.

Zhao Xiangling really didn't expect that she still had one, she had just seen this sweet syrup, and it was packed in a transparent glass bottle, and the milk fragrance kept wafting out, which was very tempting.

It's a pity that she didn't dare to take such a precious glassware, for fear of accidentally breaking it, so she could only watch the sweet syrup leave disappointed.

Now a bowl of sweet syrup was handed in front of her, Zhao Xiangling thanked her in surprise, and took a bite of it, her mouth was full of milk, silky and sweet, and it was really milk.

It's the kind of milk that doesn't smell fishy and is fragrant.

Lin Meiyi took a sip and felt comfortable, and asked Yang Qingqing sideways, "This is milk?" ”

"That's right!" Yang Qingqing nodded and looked at Lin Meiyi in surprise, "How did you drink it?" Cow's milk and goat's milk taste similar, why don't you say it's goat's milk? ”

Lin Meiyi drank all the milk in the cup in one gulp, put down the cup, and then said with a smile: "Goat milk is common, if it is goat milk, it is not worth taking out to entertain guests." ”

"If I'm right, you have a cow at home, right?" Lin Meiyi said tentatively.

Yang Qingqing's eyes widened, "You still know cows?!" ”

This is a rare commodity, no one in the south raises it at all, how does she know about it?

Looking at Yang Qingqing's confused look, Zhao Xiangling kindly explained, "The girl should have read it in a book." ”

"You're still studying?" Yang Qingqing asked in surprise.

Lin Meiyi bowed, she immediately handed her an admiring look, "Then you are really amazing, I hate reading the most, don't mention reading to me, I will be annoyed when I hear it, oops, don't talk about this, you come with me, let's try that lotus leaf steamed chicken!" ”

Yang Qingqing warmly invited, Lin Meiyi naturally wouldn't spoil her interest, called Zhao Xiangling together, and followed Yang Qingqing to taste all the dishes on the table.

Zhao Xiangling only felt that he had opened his eyes today, and this banquet allowed him to see how rich and noble the real rich and noble are.

At the same time, Zhao Xiangling is also secretly grateful to Lin Meiyi in her heart, if it were not for Lin Meiyi's leadership, she would probably never have the opportunity to see such a scene in her life.

It was precisely because she saw more things that she finally got rid of her confusion and found what she wanted.

She wants to live, to live brilliantly, to live her own wonderful, just like Lin Meiyi, she can calmly maneuver between these noble ladies.

Noticing the change in the girl's eyes, Lin Meiyi smiled slightly, very satisfied with this.

At the end of the banquet, the big guys have eaten and drunk to their heart's content, and they return to the garden again to start today's finale activity - Douhua.

Mrs. Wang had already collected peony flowers from all over the country in the garden, and the girls only needed to pick the best they felt.

This bucket of flowers, than is the flower, the better the more beautiful the winner, the first place can get a box of hairpin gift box to do the color head.

Hairpin gift box?

Lin Meiyi looked at Yang Qingqing, Yang Qingqing gave her an embarrassed smile, and replied with her eyes: Don't doubt it, it's the hairpin gift box that you and Shopkeeper Qiu sent last time.

Lin Meiyi was amused by her undisguised expression, and shook her head to show that she didn't mind.

There is a county lady to make a free endorsement, and if the autumn shopkeeper knows, he may not be happy.

Without the willows, the activity was very pleasant, and everyone picked the flowers they thought were the best, pinned them to their buns, and walked around in front of the ladies one by one, and the ladies voted for the first.

Yang Qingqing is the master, just participating, if Mrs. Wang really gave her the first place, outsiders will inevitably feel biased.

Therefore, in the end, the first place fell into the hands of the county daughter, and the little girl was so happy that her face was red and she was so excited that she almost jumped up.

The other girls who didn't get the hairpin gift box were not disappointed, because everyone had a lot of fun, focusing on the process, not the result.

A banquet ended perfectly, and after sending off the ladies and ladies of each family, Yang Qingqing left Lin Meiyi and Zhao Xiangling behind, and insisted that they stay for one more day and go shopping with her on the street tomorrow.

Lin Meiyi couldn't resist her, and she had to inquire about the sale of the house tomorrow, so she didn't refuse.

Yang Qingqing arranged a guest room for Zhao Xiangling, and then arranged for Lin Meiyi to sleep with her, and Mrs. Wang was full of surprise when she heard it, she couldn't believe her ears, and suspected that she had heard it wrong.

Her daughter has liked to sleep alone since she was a child, when has she ever wanted someone to accompany her?

It seems that this Miss Lin really made her fall in love.

Mrs. Wang couldn't say anything except shaking her head helplessly, so she only told the maids to wait for them and not let the guests feel neglected.

In this way, Lin Meiyi stayed and chatted with the excited Yang Qingqing in bed for half a night, and then she was able to sleep.

The next day, the two sleeping people were woken up by Zhao Xiangling.
