Liang Qianyan glanced at the two of them, and secretly said in his heart that he was useless. However, I have to admit in my heart that Su Yunran's cooking skills are really the material for cooking.

Su Yunran finished the dish and glanced out, she chuckled lightly but was not in a hurry to bring the dish out. Jiang Shi saw that she was deliberate, and couldn't help but stretch his face: "Why don't you serve the food yet!" ”

Su Yunran shook his apron: "This guest hasn't been served yet, so of course he can't serve the food." ”

Liang Qianxue couldn't help it: "Second sister-in-law, we are all hungry, you should go to our table first!" "I wasn't that hungry at all, mainly because the aroma was too tempting.

Su Yunran resolutely refused: "Although we are from the countryside, there is no reason to eat by ourselves before the guests arrive." If this is to be spread, it must not be laughed at and died! ”

Jiang Shi glared at Liang Qianxue, who could only sit back aggrievedly and pour half a glass of water down.

"Yun Dye, I can smell the fragrance from afar! Your craft is really getting better and better, and I'm going to eat two more bowls today! Yao Chunjing has a cheerful personality and a loud voice, so I listen to her jokes from afar.

Su Yunran greeted him out: "Okay! Today's meal is enough! Everyone has worked hard, so take a seat! That's it! ”

Su Yunran also prepared mint water and white peach water, and also soaked it in well water to cool it. It's a pity that there is no lemon, otherwise it would be more refreshing to drink.

"My dear, what does this taste so good. It's cool and swishing, and there is a smell of peaches. ”

"yes, it's delicious! I even got peach meat! ”

Hearing this, Jiang Shi hurriedly gave Montessori a look, and Montessori immediately squeezed forward: "Xiao Ran, quickly give us some to taste." ”

Su Yunran hugged the pot and said to Montessori with an apologetic face: "I'm sorry, third aunt, I only got two peaches last time, and I got all of them to soak in water and drink them today." You see, this pot is only enough for the guests to taste. ”

Even if Montessori wanted to scold people, it was not good to scold in front of so many people, so he sat back and told Jiang what Su Yunran had said, and the seven people at the table ran towards Su Yunran with complaining glances.

The banquet in the countryside is not divided into men and women, so Liang Sanhai also has a table with the Jiang family.

Before serving, Su Yunran pulled Fu Mianniang aside: "Mother, I'll let my father sit at a table with the guests later, and we will have a table with my grandmother." ”

Fu Mianniang knew her thoughts as soon as she heard her arrangement, and couldn't help but smile helplessly: "It's still thoughtful, if the guests are at the same table with them, our family will definitely make a joke today." ”

After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law discussed, they asked Liang Erhai to arrange the guests to sit down, and the dishes were fragrant as soon as they were served. The guests also praised a few words before moving the chopsticks, and the other table was immediately divided as soon as it was served.

When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law finished serving the dishes and greeted them a few times before taking a seat, there was only a little side dish left on Jiang's table. Meat, that is, it is divided so that even the juice is gone, and the plate is so clean that it does not need to be washed. Needless to say, you can't finish eating it at once, it's packed.

"Ah, I'm sorry, second sister-in-law, Xiao Ran, we thought that you didn't leave food for the two of you when you sat at that table. But there's also a little side dish and soup! You're welcome! Montessori smiled and pushed a few vegetarian dishes in front of them.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law glanced at each other, and an expected helplessness was revealed.

The hiccup sound of "......" seemed to be contagious, and it spread all the way from Jiang's family to Liang Qianxue. Su Yunran reluctantly scooped the soup pot, but he couldn't find a bone in it except for the raw and cooked ground.

After eating almost the guests, they chatted at the table, Su Yunran put down the chopsticks and went to the well to take out the cold powder. The noodles are sprinkled with some white sesame sugar and mint powder, and it tastes even more fragrant.

"Hezhen's daughter-in-law, this is cold powder, right? I've seen people get it when I was at my mother's house before, but it's not as beautiful as yours. Aunt Gu took the bowl and looked left and right, this cold noodle cube was really beautiful.

"When I was a child, my mother used to pick this fruit, but it didn't make it, and it didn't clump at all. Leave you alone, I'll taste it first...... Well, that's delicious, isn't it? It's refreshing and fragrant, what is it called...... Memorable! ”

The people at the table laughed, and when this crop man dragged words, he could make people laugh even if he said something wrong.

Yao Chunjing also hurriedly took a bite: "Yun Ran, is this really made of wild fruits on the mountain?" No, no, you have to teach me how to make such a delicious thing, otherwise what will you do if you get hungry in the future? ”

Su Yunran said generously: "No problem, I'll teach you the steps later." ”

Su Yunran didn't make so many drinks, but the cold powder still prepared some more, and Jiang's table also had a share. Hearing that Su Yunran was going to teach others the secret recipe for making cold powder, Jiang was a little angry but had no choice but to kick Montessori and Zhang under the table.

"You guys will come over and hear how this jelly is made later, and you three little ones will also come over and listen to it. Learn a little more craft, and you can get some hands on it when you get to your in-laws' house in the future. ”

Jiang Shi ordered that no one dared to object, but Meng Shi was very puzzled: "Mother, why do I think Hezhen's daughter-in-law is really becoming more and more evil!" What kind of family is the Su family in Xiahe Village, the head of the house is a gambling stick, and the old lady is a famous splasher, so where did she learn this craft? ”

The Jiang family is not without the problem of Xianggong, Su Yunran is indeed evil. Not to mention this cooking skill, just that medical skill is enough to be evil.

She explained that she was talking about learning from some old Taoist priest, but what about cooking? You can't say that you also learned from the old Taoist, right?

Zhang said worriedly: "Mother, could she really be possessed by a fox demon?" This can explain that our Hezhen and their family are obedient to her! ”

A spirit of the Jiang clan stood up, not to mention, she said that Su Yunran was a fox and a demon at the beginning, but she didn't think of this layer.

Liang Qianyan tugged at Zhang's sleeve: "Mother, don't talk nonsense, there are no gods and devils in this world." ”

Jiang Shi listened to Zhang's words in his heart: "This is the eldest daughter-in-law is right, if it is really possessed by a fox demon, you have to find a Taoist leader with high Taoism to collect the demon." This thing has to be a snack, it's really a demon who has to eat people sooner or later! ”

Su Yunran didn't know that the Jiang family had already started a demonic theory against her, and after lunch, she continued to go to the sand with everyone. Before evening, all the grape seedlings were planted, and Lu Dalin helped her pull a lot of bamboo back: "Sister-in-law, do you want so much bamboo to build a shed?" ”

Su Yunran nodded: "It's true that I want to build a shed, but it's still early, and now I'm going to use these bamboos as fences." ”

The Lu Dalin Gang called a few men, and the speed of installing the fence was much faster. Before dark, the fence was all fenced. I paid them and wanted to invite them to dinner at home, but they all refused.

"How can there be such a small job where you eat and get money, sister-in-law, you will lose money if you do this. By the way, my mother's illness has been cured, and I haven't had time to thank my sister-in-law yet! Lu Dalin smiled heartily and waved his hand back.

Su Yunran looked back at the vineyard surrounded by verdant bamboo, and his heart was filled with indescribable joy. Although this sand is not favored, she must do her best to take care of it.

"Lady!" There was a slight sound of footsteps behind her, and before she could turn around, Liang Hezhen's long arm pulled her back, and it fell right into his chest.

Su Yunran still couldn't help but blush slightly, anyway, now through the old high fence, the people outside should not be able to see it: "Xianggong, what do you think?" ”

Liang Hezhen kissed her on the cheek: "It's really good to sort it out, hard worker." ”

Su Yunran turned around and hugged him, leaning his side face on his chest and listening to his heartbeat: "Why did you come back so late today?" But what's the matter with the Yamen? ”

Liang Hezhen nodded, his lady's intuition has always been quite accurate.

"The imperial court has officially issued an official document to increase taxes and grain, and all localities will start paying them tomorrow. Now that the situation is very tense, I don't think your drunken cloud will need to be opened for the time being. Liang Hezhen patted her back with some distress and comforted her.

Zuiyunzhai also poured a lot of effort into her, but she didn't expect to meet the war so unfortunately. At present, food prices are soaring, and those who have money and those who have no money are beginning to live carefully.

"You expected that this war would not last long, but now the imperial court still levies more taxes and grain. However, the war is inherently fast-moving, and it is indeed unpredictable. ”

Liang Hezhen laughed, is her little lady making up for his wrong prediction?

"The soldiers and horses have not moved the grain and grass first, and the imperial court also needs to prepare in advance. What you said is also true, the battlefield is changing rapidly, so you need to prepare in advance. ”

Compared with taxes and grain, Su Yunran should be more worried about recruitment.

Liang Hezhen shook his head: "Recruitment should not be on our side for the time being, you can rest assured." Let's go, it's time to go home when it's dark. ”

The two of them walked by the river at the beginning of the moon, and Su Yunran suddenly remembered Cui Jian: "By the way, how is Cui Zhen?" ”

Liang Hezhen had already told her about Cui Jian and Ouyang Langshu, of course Su Yunran was angry, but he didn't expect that he would really become a farmer.

However, Cui Jian was not bad-hearted, he was indeed going to participate in the recruitment examination of Tianling Academy before. It's just that unfortunately his mother happened to be sick, and he had no choice but to stay and take care of his mother first, and it was also because of this that he missed the exam.

His father had some friendship with the county magistrate before his death, so he begged the county magistrate, hoping that the county magistrate could write him a letter of recommendation and let him take the exam alone.

However, the county order was polite on the surface and said that he would help, but in fact, he kept asking him to wait. There weren't many entanglements on the body, and this kind of news took today's entanglement. Cui Jian completely understood that the county order had no intention of helping him at all.

Just when he decided to leave, Ouyang Langshu found him. He was reluctant to let him do this kind of thing, but Ouyang Langshu repeatedly promised that he would only let him deliberately approach Su Yunran, and he would need to do something out of the ordinary.

For the sake of the future, he should come down, but he didn't expect that it would not work once, and Ouyang Langshu found him again. If you want to fulfill the promise before, you must lead Su Yunran to the inn again.

There are two things, and Cui Jian agreed with a clear conscience.

It's just that he didn't expect that things were not within Ouyang Langshu's expectations at all, and instead of separating them as husband and wife, they made them trust each other more.

"Lady, don't you hate Cui Jian? He almost ruined your reputation. Liang Hezhen actually has the answer in his heart, but he still wants to hear what she has to say.

"Hate him? I still have so much to do, it's a waste of time to spend time hating him, right? Besides, the result of him helping Ouyang Langshu to be a demon was that he was injured, which can be regarded as retribution. ”

This answer was really as Liang Hezhen thought, he fell into deep thought, and Su Yunran called him several times but did not react.

"Xianggong, do you think I should hate him?" Su Yunran looked at him like this, and thought that he had said something wrong that made him unhappy.

Liang Hezhen shook his head: "No, you're right, it's a waste of time to spend time hating an irrelevant person." I was just thinking, his talent. ”

Su Yunran looked at him curiously, how could she feel that her father-in-law seemed to be a little sorry: "Is his talent very good?" I didn't notice that. However, character is greater than everything, if you give some benefits, you will be embarrassed to be a traitor, then this kind of person will be a corrupt official and a traitor when he becomes an official in the future. ”

Liang Hezhen nodded: "What the lady said is very true. He does have some real materials, but his character needs to be reconsidered. ”

Su Yunran burst out laughing: "Xianggong...... Your tone sounds like ...... It seems to be a senior official in charge of the assessment of the ministry? ”

Liang Hezhen touched his nose a little embarrassedly: "It's not easy to study hard for ten years, and there is a reason why he is so anxious to enter Tianling Academy." Although he is already a showman, he is the only male in the whole family, if Qiu Yu can't be examined, then he still can't avoid being included in the candidate for forced labor. ”

Su Yunran finally understood: "It turns out that ancient times are the real 'knowledge changes fate'. ”

Liang Hezhen had a question mark on his face: "Ancient? ”

Su Yunran smiled: "I mean...... From ancient times to the present day. ”

Liang Hezhen corrected her seriously: "This is not accurate, go back hundreds of years and the children of the poor families in this world don't even have the opportunity to enter the office." After the change of dynasties, the scholars were weakened, which gave the opportunity for the Hanmen to enter the phase. ”

Su Yun snickered: "I've been taught, Mr. Liang." ”
