Chapter 163: Help You (3)
"What does the county lord want me to say? Admit that the Prime Minister's Mansion is better than the Zhou Palace? Or is it modest to say that the Prime Minister's Mansion is not as good as the Zhou Palace? Shang Liyuan was not in a hurry, "Besides, I haven't been to the palace, how can I know how the palace is?" And how can you compare the two? ”
"What does the county lord think?" Shang Liyuan didn't forget to ask Yao Die in the end.
Yao Die was dumbfounded for a while, and everyone thought, yes, this merchant Liyuan has never been to the palace, how can it be possible to compare the two mansions?
Besides, even if King Yao Zhou is a prince with a foreign surname, he is always crowned by the royal family, how can a courtier of the Shang Mansion compare the two? Isn't this looking for death?
"It's a rare gathering today, so let's talk about something happy." Zhao Qian came out and made a mud, after all, she picked up this talk, and she was bitten by Yao Die, arguing with Shang Liyuan, and she was always a little unhappy in her heart.
"yes..."
"Yes, yes..."
......
......
Everyone agreed.
Shang Liyuan smiled, no longer entangled in Yao Die, glanced at Deng Li, who was speechless, and sneered in her heart.
At this time, Manmu came to Shang Liyuan's side, replaced with Manhua, Manhua went back to Liyuan, Manmu stayed by Shang Liyuan's side to serve, Shang Liyuan turned his head to look at Manmu, and Manmu nodded almost uncheckably.
"It's rare to get together today, we have prepared spring tea for everyone, everyone can try it." Mingyun greeted everyone.
As he spoke, he waved his hand and let the subordinate serve tea and a few sets of tea sets.
looked at everyone with a smile, "I know that among the young ladies, some of them are tea masters, so I have prepared several sets of tea sets, and the tea is also ready, do you want to try your hand?" ”
As soon as Ming Yun finished speaking, the daughters of those tea masters were a little unbearable.
Soon, the tea leaves and tea sets were put up, and all the daughters came forward.
People who understand tea glanced at the tea leaves and couldn't help but sigh, "This is Emei snow buds?" ”
Mingyun nodded.
"It's really Emei Xueya. This is tea, why did it have it so early? The tea is not produced until the end of March, and when the tea is ready, it is sent to Kyoto from the southwest and can only be tasted in mid-April at the earliest. One of the daughters couldn't stop being surprised.
"It's in the palace, and I just got this tea not long ago."
Some daughters who don't understand tea, hearing this explanation, only to know that in April, this Emei snow bud is so precious.
Shang Liyuan looked at Mingyun and was very moved by Mingyun's intentions.
After listening to the words, Mingyun explained with a smile, "Although this tea is rare now, fortunately, my mother's family happens to be in the southwest region, and it also happens to plant some Emei snow buds, which makes me pick up a bargain." ”
After hearing this, everyone was even more envious. This Laiguo Mansion has a different heritage, and everyone knows it.
Besides, Ren Mingyun said this modestly, they wouldn't think so.
You know, this Emei snow bud is to grow at an altitude of 800 to 1,200 meters above sea level, surrounded by clouds and mist all year round, it is extremely difficult to plant, let alone the yield, can be sent so early, can only be the master's family can have the treatment.
Today, with this light, they can taste the taste of this Emei snow bud in advance.
"In addition, I have prepared some pastries, so you are welcome." Mingyun also made people serve a lot of exquisite pastries, such as ruyi cake, osmanthus sugar steamed chestnut flour cake, plum blossom cake and so on.
When everyone saw the pastry, it was a burst of praise, the plum blossoms were long gone, but the plum blossom aroma in the plum blossom cake made people feel like they were in the sea of plum blossoms.
I really have to sigh at the person who presided over this banquet, this thought is really coincidental.
While Yao Die sighed in her heart, she was unforgiving.
"This Young Lady Shang and Miss Shang are such good people, not to mention that Young Lady Shang is from a family of Laiguo Mansion, Miss Shang and this Second Miss Shang are sisters, why are the two so different?"
Ming Yun didn't expect that the originally good atmosphere was ruined by Yao Die again, and it was impossible to say in her heart that there was no anger. But these words were directed towards Shang Liyuan, and she couldn't answer if she wanted to.
"Have you ever heard of 'dragons give birth to nine sons, each of them is different'?" Shang Liyuan looked at Mingyun's embarrassment in her eyes and gave Mingyun a comforting look, and Mingyun settled down.
"Of course I did." After Yao Die answered, she knew what Shang Liyuan was going to say later, and her face was a little unsightly.
Shang Liyuan glanced at Yao Die, knowing that she already understood what she meant, but Shang Liyuan Mei planned to give Yao Die this face, so she still finished the following words,
"Since the county lord has heard of it, then it is good. After all, my sister and I are just half-sisters, and it's nice to say, it's sisters, and it's not nice to say, and my sister is not a master in front of me. Shang Liyuan's words were very polite.
Yao Die wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, it was really not good to argue with Shang Liyuan like this for the sake of a concubine, so she simply kept silent.
"Sister's words hurt my sister's heart, my sister has always treated my sister as my own sister, but I didn't expect that my sister is a slave in my sister's heart." A sad voice came, vaguely hoarse.
Shang Liyuan didn't need to look at it, she knew that Shang Yao was coming, and the words just now, Shang Liyuan was going to say it to Shang Yao, thinking of this, the corners of Shang Liyuan's mouth raised slightly, and then retracted, Mingyun didn't miss the smile on the corner of Shang Liyuan's mouth, but when she looked closely, it was gone, as if she had read it wrong, which made Mingyun's doubts about Shang Liyuan even greater.
Seeing Shang Yao coming, the faces of the daughters were not very good. Among them, Yao Die and Deng Li's faces were the worst.
Xue Jia's face was not much better, but he quickly hid his displeasure.
"Why is the second sister here?" Mingyun asked with a frown.
"What the sister-in-law said, of course, was invited by my sister, and my sister dared to come. As a slave of my sister, how dare I come to such a banquet without my sister's invitation? Shang Yao looked at Shang Liyuan, and the smugness in her eyes couldn't be hidden.
Shang Liyuan was still indifferent, and after listening to Shang Liyuan's words, everyone couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, why was Shang Liyuan invited? Isn't that embarrassing to everyone? Everyone looked at Shang Liyuan and wanted to see how Shang Liyuan explained this matter.
"I think my sister misunderstood, I did go to my sister's yard and let my sister come..."
When Shang Liyuan said this, everyone had already begun to talk in a whisper. Shang Yao was even more proud, Ming Yun stretched out her hand and pulled Shang Liyuan's sleeve, Shang Liyuan didn't discuss this matter with her, and now she is also very passive.
"However, I asked my sister to apologize to Lord Yao, Miss Xue, and Miss Deng." Shang Liyuan ignored everyone's words and eyes, and finished the unfinished words. He didn't glance at Shang Yao from beginning to end.
