Chapter 61: Stunning Appearance
In the county order house, the old lady held a birthday banquet, and the lights were everywhere and she was beaming.
Chen Xi already knew the guest list, and when he saw that there were still the female dependents of the prefect's family, he almost jumped up with joy.
She was so energetic that she came to the kitchen early in the morning and started to get busy.
Yang Tinghan stood aside, like a lion, and once someone appeared in front of Chen Xi, he was thrown over by a cold eye.
Even in the scorching summer, the kitchen was like a steamer, but Chen Xi felt that the surroundings were unusually cool, for no other reason, Yang Tinghan had his own air conditioning.
His cold gaze, coupled with the aura of being unapproachable, made people unable to get warm.
"Little lady, how are you preparing? The feast is about to begin, and it's time to serve! ”
"I'm all ready, everyone, listen, you must not make a mistake!" Chen Xi gave an order, and everyone's expressions were serious.
In the front yard, the banquet officially began.
Watching many fresh dishes being served on the table, many words of praise sounded in the ears of the old lady.
"The old lady is really blessed, with such a filial and capable son, there are many dishes at today's banquet, we have never seen many of them!"
"Isn't it, I heard that since the old lady lost her appetite, the county magistrate personally issued a reward order."
"This blessing is not something that ordinary people can have, and we have seen it for a long time when we have come to the banquet recently!"
“……”
When people are old, what they enjoy most is that they are full of children and grandchildren.
Now that she can invite so many guests for her birthday, the old lady smiles from ear to ear, especially when she hears those words of praise.
But when her eyes swept to her eldest granddaughter, her eyes flashed.
She is old and refined, and quickly sorted out her emotions, and laughed: "Speaking of which, this cook is also a magical person, she really has the ability, do you know that the braised pork and boiled vegetables in Tianxianglou are from her hands......"
Halfway through her words, the old lady suddenly remembered what Chen Xi said two days ago, and she pretended to be mysterious and said: "Actually, the most amazing thing about that little lady is not cooking, but making medicinal food, which can make people slim down and beautify, which is really amazing!" ”
If these words were to be said by someone else, the ladies would immediately question them.
It was the old lady who said this, and many people showed curious looks.
"Is what the old lady said true? That must be introduced to us, since the birth, this body has not been able to lose weight, I am dying! ”
In ancient times, women regarded their husbands as the sky, and if they did not have the favor of men, they were like flowers that had failed and lost their bright colors.
It was the wife of the richest man in the county who spoke, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she immediately attracted the echo of many rich people.
"Of course what I said is true, I'll introduce you to it now!" The old lady glanced at the personal maid next to her, and the maid quietly retreated.
……
In the kitchen, the dishes are all ready, and only some snacks remain.
Chen Xi was originally very calm, but watching the time pass bit by bit, there was no news at all in the front yard, and he was slowly a little restless, like ants walking around on a hot pot.
Yang Tinghan handed over a cup of herbal tea: "If you come, you will be safe, you have to believe in yourself!" ”
"I'm ......" As soon as Chen Xi opened his mouth, he saw the maid next to the old lady walking in, and she asked eagerly: "Did the old lady let you come to me!" ”
"Don't worry, lady, just follow me now."
Chen Xi gathered his breath and calmed down, and after sorting out his mood, he deliberately changed into the new clothes he brought.
She behaved elegantly, and walked in front of the ladies not too lightly: "Say hello to the old lady, and wish the old lady a long and safe life." ”
Many eyes looked at it, Chen Xi stood in the middle of the crowd without arrogance, impatience, humility or arrogance, especially the decent smile on his face, which won the favor of many people.
The richest man's wife, who had just spoken, walked over directly: "I heard that you can make medicinal food, which can make people lose weight and improve skin!" But ......"
I thought she was a stunning beauty, but now I see ......
It's not that the richest man's wife judges people by her appearance, but even if Chen Xi loses weight successfully, he has only lost some weight, and his figure is much plumper than that of ordinary women.
Chen Xi knew the doubts in her heart, and said with a smile: "I once got a recipe many years ago, because I didn't know much literacy, so I didn't understand its value. ”
Her tone was not hurried, and she slowly talked about the weight loss process since she got married.
The wives around listened to it: "That means it's true, that's really good, you must help me write a recipe when you have time!" ”
"I want it too, I want it too, and my sister in the family!"
"yes, how could such a good thing fall on me."
Chen Xi was instantly surrounded by many ladies wearing silk and satin, with beaded hair.
Great, the first step has been successful.
She still smiled decently: "Thank you ladies for your love, I just want to open a shop to solve the problem of body shape, and I will invite you ladies to come when the time comes!" ”
Hearing that the shop had not yet opened, the ladies showed disappointed expressions.
The old lady coughed lightly and lightly as a birthday star: "Everyone is here today to celebrate their birthday, there are so many delicious foods, let's hurry up and sit down, and you can listen to the play in a while!" ”
The host has spoken, and the ladies naturally want to be as entertained as the host wants, Chen Xi got free here and quickly retreated.
While entertaining the guests, the old lady looked at Chen Xi from the side, and saw him disappear around the corner, her eyes full of appreciation.
There is no shortage of smart people in the world, who know current affairs, and know how to advance and retreat, and Chen Xi is just such a person.
Yang Tinghan stood outside the kitchen, and when he saw Chen Xi jumping back, the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose, and he greeted him: "It's done!" ”
"That's a must, Miss Ben is out of the horse, a top two, okay, let's go home together, and we should also prepare for the move, by the way, there are furniture!"
After the new house is built, it has to be empty for a while, first let the wind dry everything, and secondly, let the smell inside.
It's almost now, and Chen Xi also wants to live in it before opening the store.
The two soon came to the shop that sold furniture, and the young man inside saw that the two were dressed ordinary, and unceremoniously blocked the door: "We have very expensive things here, you can't afford them, so let's go somewhere else!" ”
"Dogs look down on people!" Chen Xi had already inquired, this was the best store in the county, so he didn't leave angrily, but glanced at the little guy and walked in.
"You ......" The young man looked dissatisfied and wanted to pick up someone, but the shopkeeper came over in time and glared at the young man fiercely: "What do you want to buy!" ”
