Chapter 149
Time passed in a flash, and Mingxiu arrived at the Rongguo Mansion as promised.
Yan Qi, the eldest young master of the Rongguo Mansion, personally greeted him at the door, and when he saw Mingxiu getting out of the carriage, he hurriedly laughed, "Lord Showa, come in with me, my mother has been waiting for a long time." ”
Although it is said to be a young master, Yan Qi's age is not young, Rong Guogong is a fierce general who gallops on the battlefield, he is famous on the battlefield, he is slightly younger than the first emperor, and now he is almost in the age of the sixtieth year.
Being treated like this by someone who looked like his father's generation, Mingxiu was a little flattered, and at the same time he was puzzled.
"I don't know what the Duchess of Rongguo suddenly posted?"
She really has nothing to do with Duchess Rongguo, and she hasn't even seen her before she receives the post, but now that she was suddenly invited, Mingxiu only felt very strange.
In theory, Mingxiu can only be regarded as an upstart, but Rong Guogong is an old magnate in the capital, not only is he powerful, but also very valued by the royal family, no matter why, Mingxiu should feel honored to be invited.
But she didn't feel happy at all, she just felt very strange.
Yan Qi's face stiffened slightly, looking a little embarrassed, "Lord Showa will find out later." ”
Their family is also a well-known figure in the capital, and his mother's strict requirements are really a little unclear.
It seems that no matter what, it is a bit of a loss of face.
Seeing that Yan Qi only felt embarrassed but not half malicious, Mingxiu put his mind at ease.
With Yan Qi's footsteps, he entered the inner house of the Rongguo Mansion and entered the courtyard of the Duchess of Rongguo.
"Lord Showa."
Duchess Rongguo personally greeted her at the gate of the hospital.
"Since the mother is here, the son will leave first."
Yan Qi bowed slightly, apologized to Mingxiu for missing him, and left.
"I'm really sorry to invite you here, but it's just ...... The old body has something to ask for. Duchess Rongguo coughed lightly a little embarrassed, regardless of whether she had a fateful body or not, and how powerful and powerful her family was, she rashly invited a girl she didn't know to come to the door as a semi-tough one, in the final analysis, she was wrong.
Even though Mingxiu has all kinds of doubts in her heart, where can she see an old man apologizing to her?
"It's okay, I'm okay at home, this ......"
Seeing that Duchess Rongguo's face was a little embarrassed, Mingxiu twitched the corners of her mouth, and for the first time she found that she was a person who couldn't speak.
Duchess Rongguo looked at her for a while, and suddenly laughed, "I see that the county lord of Showa is also a kind person, come and sit, although my family's refreshments are not as delicious as the Ming Ji, but they can still be eaten, the county lord can taste it, and give some suggestions." ”
After all, the siege was relieved, and Mingxiu stepped forward, "The dim sum in the Guogong Mansion is naturally excellent, and my family can't reach it." ”
"The county lord is gracious."
After seeing Mingxiu taste the pastry, Mrs. Rongguo said: "I can't hide it, this time I asked the county lord to come to the door, I have something to ask for." ”
"Madame, please."
knew that it was not for nothing to invite her to speak, Mingxiu was already prepared in her heart, and if Duchess Rongguo didn't mention it at this time, she would have to ask again.
The straightforward approach made Mingxiu have a good impression of Duchess Rongguo.
"It's not a secret, my little daughter has reached the age of getting married, and the day after tomorrow is the wedding banquet, my in-laws and family are very fond of eating, and there is only one Ming Ji in Tongdu City, whether it is pastries or dishes, they are very brilliant, so ......"
Because there are not enough people, generally speaking, in Mingji, except for those that cannot be eaten and have to be packed, they generally do not take out, in short, there is no takeaway service.
Because of Xie Zhan's relationship, no one dared to force it, not to mention that now Mingxiu is still the upstart county lord.
Even if she is as noble as the Duchess of Rongguo, if she wants their family to hold the next banquet, she has to set up a banquet and invite Mingxiu to discuss it.
If she doesn't agree, Duchess Rongguo really can't force it.
For Mingxiu, this is not a difficult thing.
"It's not difficult, I don't know when your mansion will have a banquet? When I turned around, I went to explain to the restaurant, but there was one thing that was a little difficult, and I had to discuss it with my wife in advance. ”
I didn't expect Mingxiu to agree so quickly, Duchess Rongguo was slightly stunned, smiled kindly, and said, "What's the difficulty, the county lord of Showa just say it." ”
"My family's manpower is a little stretched, and if I want to buy a banquet, I'm afraid I won't be able to turn it over." Mingxiu pondered for a while, and saw that Duchess Rongguo had been smiling at her, and coughed lightly with some embarrassment, "In my humble opinion, it is better for me to take the cook to the door one day in advance, and the vegetables to be used will be prepared and cooked on the spot, with the help of the people in your house, we can also be more relaxed." ”
There are not many people in Mingji Restaurant, and those who have been to the restaurant can see that before the Duchess Rongguo considers inviting Mingxiu to the door, she is worried that she will not agree, which is also a more important reason.
The plan proposed by Mingxiu couldn't be simpler for Duchess Rongguo.
"It's not difficult, I'm afraid I'm too tired to work the Showa County Lord."
Duchess Rongguo was also a little worried in her heart, she heard that it was Mingxiu's mother who was in charge of the real kitchen, although she had the skills inherited from her family, but Mingxiu was too young after all, and she was wondering if Mingxiu had such ability.
But there is no way to directly and unceremoniously invite Ming's mother to the door, and it is very rude to ask Mingxiu to come to the door this time.
"It's okay, if Madame trusts me, I'll do it for you."
Mingxiu really didn't see the distrust of Duchess Rongguo, otherwise she would have picked her son and left.
didn't stay too long in the Rongguo Mansion, Mingxiu left for a meal.
According to the time given by Duchess Rongguo, it is already very close to the wedding banquet of their youngest daughter, and there are many things that Mingxiu has to prepare in advance, so as not to be in a hurry.
For example, the people who will be brought at that time.
"Go to the Rongguo Mansion for a banquet?" Ming's mother looked at her daughter with some disapproval, "Where have we done this?" If we delay, we will have a great sin. ”
It's not that she doesn't want her daughter to go through the training, so she has to take it step by step, right?
As soon as it came up, it was the banquet of the Guogong Mansion, and this noodle was a little too big.
"Mother, I know it in my heart, now we just need to set the menu and send it to the Rongguo Mansion, let them prepare the ingredients, and then choose the chef who will go with me."
The thing she decided had always been that ten cows couldn't pull it back, and Ming's mother couldn't do anything about her.
“…… You take Sanniang and the egret beside you to go together, and the Guogong Mansion should prepare it for you, and then see if there are any kitchen utensils to take with you. Ming's mother shook her head, since there was no way to persuade her, it could only make her have no worries.
Mingxiu laughed at this time, "Thank you, mother!" ”
Nodding the tip of Mingxiu's nose, Mingmu shook her head and didn't answer.
