Chapter 062: Is There a Shortage of Cooks in His Family?

"Then I should be more grateful to General Tan?" Today's meal is still Tan Shao's silver.

"General Tan naturally has it." Mother Wu waved the pot and spoon, "In addition to the ginger duck, there is also his favorite kung pao chicken, and the cured meat for the wine is ready!" ”

After reading it, Changying also felt speechless.

Huo Rong didn't know that he looked like he was a number, and after a while, the three of them had already walked to the Shen family.

Changying and Shaoqing stood under the door to greet them.

Shaoqing is now equal to Changying's lieutenant general in the guard, and he is half the master here, because Changying said that he is his distant cousin, otherwise there is no way to explain why such a good young man would not leave.

It's okay like this, but whenever there are occasions that require accompaniment, when it is inconvenient to have a long tassel, he will often be on top.

Huo Rong followed Tan Shao into the door, and looked at the courtyard first.

It is a courtyard that has been around for some years, it is very clean, and there is a big osmanthus tree planted in the center of the courtyard, which is green and green at this time, and it is full of vitality.

The common white walls and tiles in the south of the Yangtze River are also planted under the walls, and a few sparrows jump on them.

After the moon cave door, there are stone tables and stone chairs in the courtyard, there are bamboo canopy in the corner of the wall, next to a wisteria that has bloomed buds, there is a small building on the other side of the wall, the window door is ajar, and a pot of orchids hanging under the window half obscures the light in the window.

Huo Rong has let Shen Changying occupy the position of Neizi for more than three years, but this is the first time he has stepped into her territory.

Of course, this is all in the past, and now he is purely here for dinner.

Shaoqing led into the vase door under the wisteria, and then ordered Fugui to serve tea - guard all the rules, and do not drink alcohol on errands.

There is a small courtyard with three rooms here, elegant and quiet, and there is a porch directly to the kitchen, which is very convenient, and it is the place where the long tassel is used to entertain distinguished guests.

Here, Changying has already asked Zhou Liang to take someone to serve the food, and Zi Ying has already prepared a folding fan or something.

Tan Shao and Xu Lan were familiar with each other, looking at the dishes that were served first, they greeted Huo Rong, and unceremoniously raised the chopsticks first.

Changying explained to Shaoqing and Zhou Liang that they were entertained and went out.

Look at the sky, it's almost noon, and Huang Ji hasn't come back yet, could it be that something happened to Su Xinrong?

didn't care about it for now, and invited auspiciousness, and asked him to take the approval given by Tan Shao to go to the government office to get the file first, and then go back to the dining room.

Although Changying inevitably often shares the table with her comrades in the guard, and does not drink alcohol during the banquet, it is said that she can sit at the same table, but after all, she has a single courtyard.

Tan Shao naturally didn't keep her, but he helped the teacup while she was helping to get the food, and said a few official words: "Now is not the time to transport grain, the shipwrights must step up, it is best to catch up with this year's autumn harvest, in case of failure, we must also strive to launch next year."

"The Caoyun Division has had many accidents recently, and Nan Kangwei took over the dock at this time, which is more or less a bit of a desperate order.

"Zi Lan is also from Dongningwei, and he knows that the soldiers under the command of Guangwei Hou are dedicated to the country.

"You and Ruo Wei both belong to the back waves of the Yangtze River, I will dig out my heart to say a word, supervise the affairs of the department, whether it is for the country or the people, you must do your best."

Because Caoyun is in charge of the people's livelihood of the grain from the south to the north, it is said that the governor of Caoyun is not subject to any control and is directly responsible to the emperor.

But since the day when the imperial power was suppressed by foreign relatives, this important military and people's livelihood has gradually fallen into power, and now not only Fan Xin is the person who was pushed up by the Gu family at the beginning, but also the Gu family infiltrated in all departments of the court and the palace.

If not, how can we talk about the dictatorship of foreign relatives?

Therefore, even if the emperor vigorously promoted the generals, he also had the real power of heavy troops in his hands, but Cao Yun was not in charge of it, they controlled the river transportation, and they held 100,000 sailors in their hands, and they couldn't turn the tables after all.

Therefore, although Tan Shao's words are vague, there is no doubt that Caoyun will be an important position for the emperor to stabilize his imperial power in the future.

Changying thought of Fan Xin, the governor of Caoyun, and remembered that he had not fallen into good fruit in his previous life.

She died in the period when the court situation was the most chaotic and the palace was the most fierce, at that time, the person she was waiting for in this life fought to the death with the prince and relatives.

At that time, Fan Xin was taken down, and Donggong and his relatives seemed to have broken their arms overnight.

But Fan Xin died three years later, a long time after that person returned to Beijing.

"Here comes the fish!"

Wu Ma's loud voice interrupted her thoughts.

When they came back to their senses, Tan Shao and the three of them had already chatted, and when they saw the spicy and fragrant fish pot in Wu's mother's hand, they all raised their heads in unison.

"This is the freshest grass carp I just bought, a few generals, please try it!"

Changying took the fish basin and put it down, and Wu's mother saluted a few people.

Xu Lan glanced at it and said with a smile: "Mother Wu actually made this boiled fish." I remember this dish last time, which made me eat two more bowls of rice.

"Now that I smell this smell, I'm already hungry, I'm wondering if I should pay Changying and simply come to your house to partner in the future?"

Everyone laughed.

Huo Rong clamped a piece of duck neck, and his eyes were cool and cool.

He can see that the co-author of the Xu family not only does not have a cook who can make ducks, but also no chefs who can cook fish.

"Is Brother Zi interested?" Xu Lan asked with a smile.

Huo Rong smiled silently.

Is it not enough to see the two of them in the guard every day, and they have to be sent to the door to be blinded by them again?

He had already made a plan to break off with Shen Changying, so naturally he would not get involved in these boring things.

If a woman is a little capable, some people love how normal it is.

How normal it is for a man to be a soldier because of the woman he loves.

And what does all this have to do with him?

He just sat next to him and watched this kind of crazy man and woman drama.

"Does General Xu really want to come to us to join us?" Mother Wu's melancholy voice still contained a little joy, "That slave is so honored!" ”

"yes." Shaoqing also said, "You eat alone anyway, it's good to partner with us." ”

Shaoqing is Changying's "deputy general", and he is very open in the guard, and because of his identity as the fifth master of Dongyang Bofu, his style of action raised since childhood is quite like-minded with Xu Lan, who was born in the General's Mansion, and he is obviously happy with this proposal.

Huo Rong felt that this scene was a bit blocked.

"It's just a joke, I'm in the same office as Changying, how can I get too close?" Xu Lan's gaze wandered over his face, and he smiled casually, "If you don't bother me, I'll come over from time to time to ask for a cup of tea." ”
