Qin Yao couldn't help but ask with curiosity when she heard this, "Is there any special need or day this year?" ”

As soon as Qin Yao finished saying this, in an instant, the room full of people looked at Qin Yao in surprise.

Gu Ya, who was beside the eldest princess, asked tentatively, "Doesn't the second princess know?" This year, the emperor has not come back from the hot spring villa, I heard that the large and small sacrifices in the imperial city must be completed by the queen, but there is always a man to come forward, according to the order of the chief, naturally the eldest prince has to bear this responsibility, so that in our house this year's New Year's Festival, this human relationship must be very much, and the eldest prince has always been ignorant of these things, and can only bother the eldest princess to worry a lot. In addition, the eldest prince never asked about the affairs of the court before, but now that it is the New Year's Day, it is still necessary to move around, such as Prime Minister Meng Cheng's side, our house will not take the initiative to visit in previous years, on the one hand, it is not in accordance with the rules, and on the other hand, it is not necessary to tell the truth, saying that the eldest prince actually deliberately made friends with important ministers in the court, but this year is different, naturally there must be some contacts, but we are just waiting for the return to the people's courtesy, even so, then we have to be prepared. ”

Gu Ya explained the ins and outs in a few words, Qin Yao nodded and said: "If you say so, this year's New Year is really a big day, it's not easy to live, the Great Prince's Mansion is a major event this year, the eldest sister-in-law, you have to worry about contributing, plus I don't understand these things, and I can't help you anything, but if you have any errands to do, you can arrange for me." I'm sure I've done a good job for you. ”

The eldest princess put down the teacup in her hand beside her, and then pointed to Qin Yao's head and said deliberately: "You, don't want to be lazy, it stands to reason that the eldest prince and the second prince are the same mother, they are both children under the name of Rong Niangniang, a compatriot who is a serious child, what is going on in our house, he Ye Qinghong is doing his younger brother, where can he still run away?" You are his daughter-in-law, naturally, when the time comes, you will have to work inside and outside your house, and you will have to help me connect with each other or something. It's the same with all these things, you have to accompany me, do it one by one, don't want to be lazy, and avoid it. ”

When the eldest princess was talking here, a little maid came over outside and replied that lunch was ready, and Hu Laohan specially sent her over to invite the two nobles to dine in the back room.

"It's so good, why don't you eat it here? Why change places again? Look, wouldn't it be nice to eat here? What's the back and forth? The eldest princess asked.

The little maid who came back and talked replied: "After all, this is the front hall, and it is still a little cold, this place is exactly ten outlets, at noon, the wind is strong, I don't have to let the nobles eat when the wind blows, and then hurt the stomach, then the inner room is different, the road is burned in the morning, warm and baked, although the meals are all home-cooked dishes, are fresh and delicious, even the fish in the fish soup are ready-made fish, the fragrance of the meal plus the stove is warm, in that place, everything to eat is also comfortable, Please also ask the two nobles to come with me to the inner hall. ”

The eldest princess didn't say anything, she was a casual character, so she didn't care much about these things anymore, Hu Laohan seemed to be an old man in Zhuangzi, presumably everything would be arranged properly, and there was nothing to be suspicious of.

When I got to the back room, sure enough, Hu Laohan was a thoughtful person, not only the stove that was heated in advance, the tea brewed in the house, and the right amount of tidying up, before saying that the front hall was only a small place after all, and the hospitality was relatively hasty, and the front hall was originally a little simple, but now it was different when I arrived in the inner courtyard.

The wings in the inner courtyard of this village must be carefully cleaned and cleaned up in ordinary times.

The house is cleaned up, all the furnishings are just right, there are flowers and grass in the house, it is indeed much more comfortable than the front yard hall, and the house is cleaned up, and the eldest princess and Qin Yao are more comfortable staying here.

The eldest princess looked around, and was still quite satisfied with the style of this room, "I didn't expect Hu Laohan, it looks like he is used to managing Zhuangzi, if you manage the affairs of the inner courtyard, you are also very good at housekeeping, this house is really neat, oops, I also thought that this meal is over, your front yard really feels a little cold, I don't want to stay a little longer, now, it's too warm, Hu Laohan, you are not afraid that I will not leave here, one by one the account books are moved out, I will check yours the same?" ”

Hu Laohan showed a sincere smile and said: "The eldest princess said that it was funny, as long as the eldest princess and the second princess are willing to stay in our Zhuangzi, it is the honor of our Zhuangzi, we are too late to be happy, how can we think that you can leave quickly, then again, you just want to leave, and you have to wait until you have lunch first, this meal, I will pack the ticket with you, it is prepared by the most neat and neat person in our Zhuangzi, it is really out of our Zhuangzi and can't eat it, except we can't find these dishes." ”

Qin Yao stretched out his head to look at the table, indeed, these dishes are very unfamiliar, I have never seen them, let alone other dishes, just the big bowl of fish soup in the middle, the taste is sweet, even if he knows that it is fish soup, Qin Yao has never smelled such a delicious fish soup fragrance.

"Although, in front of you, today's meal is coarse tea and light rice, because you are in a hurry, we are also in a hurry, we can only take the Zhuangzi freshly picked up and prepare the dishes, but, these are the best in our Zhuangzi, you must not think, my old man is fooling things, we are not just picking a few dishes and taking them out for the two nobles to deal with casually, first say this, this plate, this is the lettuce, this is the beginning of the year, we prepared the fresh ones in advance, and packed them in jars, It is salted and made into a side dish, which can be preserved for the winter and eaten refreshingly. You see, there is also this fish, this is just caught, it is fresh and fresh, this is made into fish soup, there is a dish of fish noodles over there, and that, that is the pickled duck breast made of duck that we freshly beat yesterday, the two nobles can taste it first, on this stove, there is a boiled small porridge, with some side dishes, although this meal is simple, but these are all on our Zhuangzi, although it is not valuable food, it is a special picture, and please taste the two nobles. Hu Laoyu's tone was full of pride, and he pointed to the food on the table and introduced them one by one.
