"How many people are coming?"

Seeing that Steward Cai was talking anxiously, they all stammered, and Qin Wu and Mrs. Wang also became nervous.

How can Steward Cai also come from a big family, and those who have seen big scenes, Mrs. Wang and Qin Wu are just village women, and Steward Cai is in a hurry, and they don't dare to think about it.

"Four people!"

Steward Cai replied.

Seeing Steward Cai say this, Mrs. Wang and the Qin Wu clan breathed a sigh of relief unfreely, and thought it was a big battle of hundreds of people.

"What did the man say?"

It's four people, and someone specially instructed it, how difficult can it be!

Mrs. Wang and the Qin Wu family both thought like this.

When Mrs. Cai saw Mrs. Wang and Qin Wu saying this, the look on her face became even more anxious.

"You don't know, that man came over and said that what Lord Liu missed most was the home-cooked meal that his mother cooked for him fifty years ago, and he couldn't remember what the meal was, but Guan Guan remembered the taste."

Listening to Steward Cai's words, Mrs. Wang and the Qin Wu family couldn't help but look at each other.

Fifty years ago?

At that time, Mrs. Wang and the Qin Wu family had not yet been born, so what was the home-cooked meal at that time? Where to know.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang and the Qin Wu family also looked confused, Steward Cai became even more anxious in his heart.

"Which family in the village is surnamed Liu?"

Steward Cai asked anxiously.

Mrs. Wang and Qin Wu glanced at each other, thought about it carefully, and shook their heads: "I don't know about other villages, but there is no family surnamed Liu in Liuli Village at all, and it is not clear whether the maiden family of those women and daughters-in-law is surnamed Liu!" ”

Mrs. Wang and the Qin Wu family have lived in Liuli Village all their lives, and this matter is quite clear.

Steward Cai sighed, he was also in a hurry, if this Lord Liu really had a family in Liuli Village, then it would not be their turn to work today.

"Since the person sent here said so, then Lord Liu has designated that there is a relationship with the place of Liuli Village, so the two of us will first go to the village to inquire and see what kind of food the poor families ate in Liuli Village forty or fifty years ago!"

Forty or fifty years ago, the family that could sell the child to the palace to be a eunuch should be a family with a bad life.

Now the best way can only be like this, before leaving, Steward Cai specially advised: "Just ask the two sisters, I will prepare here first, in case ...... I can't really go without food when the time comes! ”

Mrs. Wang and Qin Wu nodded, and then hurriedly went down the mountain.

There are also many elderly people in their fifties in the village, as long as they run a few more, they should be able to ask one or two.

Tong Shuangxi was pulled aside by Steward Wen at this time.

"This is fifty taels of silver, the monthly money of me and Steward Zhao for the past few months, you take it first."

When they go out, these people will not carry a lot of money with them, and the people who come and go on weekdays are the accounts of the public school.

Tong Shuangxi understands.

"I don't know these people from the palace, I don't know a little steward, and I don't know how decent I can help you, I'm not sure, when the time comes, we can do as much as we can!"

Don't look at Steward Wen here, he is the master of one count, but it is also halfway up the mountainside, if it is placed elsewhere, Steward Wen is really nothing.

If a person like Steward Wen can say such things to Tong Shuangxi, he really doesn't regard Tong Shuangxi as an outsider.

Since Ren Wen didn't treat himself as an outsider, Tong Shuangxi would not push people who cared about his sister and brother out.

I thanked Steward Wen and Steward Zhao first, and accepted the fifty taels of silver, saying that they would make up the IOU in the afternoon.

Steward Wen looked at the little girl's stubborn face, but he didn't refuse, knowing that this was the stubbornness of the little girl in front of him.

Because there were many things, Steward Wen didn't say anything to Tong Shuangxi, and continued to work after a few instructions.

Tong Shuangxi went to the kitchen and didn't see Mrs. Wang and Qin Wu, and when he inquired, he learned that they went down the mountain and went back to the village to inquire about things.

"Early in the morning, I let people stare at it, and the father and son of the Tong family's big house got together and grunted together when they had the opportunity, and the Tong family was okay and asked a few kitchen women about it, and asked if the people who were coming over today were the people in the palace!"

After a while, Qin Ergouzi came over and told Tong Shuangxi what he had discovered.

The people of the Tong family have already begun to act.

Tong Shuangxi nodded, and after a few more words of Qin Ergouzi, he turned around and went to find Steward Cai.

Steward Cai was preparing dishes with a few women in the kitchen, and when he saw Tong Shuangxi coming over, he thought that Mrs. Wang and Qin Wu were back. Looking behind her again, seeing no one else, there was inevitably disappointment in her eyes.

Tong Shuangxi pulled her and asked carefully about those people's preferences. Mrs. Cai saw that the dishes were almost ready, and just waited for Mrs. Wang and Qin Wu to come back, so she simply talked to Tong Shuangxi in detail.

"I thought about it carefully, even if I found out about the food forty or fifty years ago, it couldn't really be the meal that was entertained! But if you don't cook those meals, how can you let that Lord Liu eat the taste of his childhood, this is really embarrassing! ”

Steward Cai felt that even if he prepared a table of whole sheep or whole fish banquet now, it was not embarrassing.

Tong Shuangxi understands the troubles of Cai Guanshi, as the so-called things are people, some people, some things, some memories, if you miss it, you miss it, if you want to find it again, where will it be so simple.

It's just that Tong Shuangxi didn't expect that this eunuch surnamed Liu was also from Liuli Village.

While talking, Mrs. Wang and Qin Wu came back.

Tong Shuangxi saw that the two of them were panting, and the tip of their noses was full of beads of sweat, thinking that they had rushed over in a hurry.

"How's it going?"

Steward Cai was anxious to ask the result, Tong Shuangxi took two large porcelain bowls from the side, scooped two bowls of water for the two of them, and brought them over.

Seeing this, Steward Cai noticed the beads of sweat on the faces of Mrs. Wang and Qin Wu, and paid more attention to Tong Shuangxi's carefulness in his heart.

Mrs. Wang and Qin Wu knew that Steward Cai was anxious, and they didn't have any trouble with Steward Cai in their hearts, so after each of them drank a porcelain bowl of water, they told what they asked.

"My old man's uncle and aunt are 60 years old this year, and they still remember the days when they lived in the village, when the village was poor, and they said that when they were young, they ate boiled potatoes, taro, and wild yams.

"Said that at that time, few people in the village have a field, are by their own to go to the mountains to open up a penny and a half acres of mountain fields, said that every year to the harvest, the family will make them some mixed flour cakes, said that they are not particular about the people, directly water and mixed noodles, and then put water to cook, some particular people, will add some green onions, salt, and then rub a thin layer of lard on the bottom of the pot, the cake in the pot slowly baked, after a while, the fragrance of lard accompanied by the fragrance of the cake and green onion will come out, It's so greedy that people on both sides of the door will drool! ”
