Chapter 266: Banquet

But Mrs. Gu doesn't think so, in her heart, her daughter He Yunjin is naturally thousands of times stronger than Li Miaoyu's concubine, but look, there are very few people who ask her about her, and some of them are not from good families.

After being asked like this four or five times, Mrs. Gu's face sank, and she changed to a smiling face when someone spoke to her. As a result, there are even fewer people who come to talk to her.

Mrs. Gu found the opportunity and asked He Yunjin in a low voice, "Are all the arrangements made for you over there?" ”

He Yunjin nodded and said with a smile: "Mother orders, dare not obey your orders?" ”

Mrs. Gu slapped her on the forehead and said, "What day is it today, why are you still wandering around here?" Hurry up and go with your grandmother? If this is done well, there will be many benefits in the future! ”

He Yunjin twisted her body shyly, dragged out her voice, and said coquettishly: "Mother......" Then went around to Mrs. Tai's side and stood quietly.

Mrs. Gu twisted her head to the side, glanced at her daughter, and then turned away, patrolling the ladies and ladies who were full of clothes and temples, thinking about what kind of daughter-in-law she wanted to find for He Yunqing. This year, He Yunqing is sixteen, he is still a showman, and after two years, he will be eighteen if he wins the promotion, and when the time comes, it can't be regarded as early.

Look at that Xiao Yun, who divorced from his family Qing'er, immediately married the current prince, ascended to the sky in one step, and now she is pregnant again, and she is about to give birth. Her family Qing'er has not gone to anything, and she is not very happy to be a mother.

At noon, everyone moved to the flower hall to set up a banquet, and the busyness of Xiuzhu's side was really put on the spot.

Xiu Zhu looked along the flow of people and heard Li Miaoxian comb his hair, and even his clothes were all changed. At this time, he was dressed in light blue, with an elegant posture, and he was indescribably good-looking.

Countless ladies and ladies were stunned.

Mrs. Tai then remembered that there was such a granddaughter, and beckoned to her.

Li Miaoxian grew so big, and never knew what it was like for grandma to hug him, he was stunned for a moment, turned his head among thousands of people, found the pretty face with a smile on his face, settled down a few times, walked over gently, and curtsied in one go, how many people were stunned.

"Oh, this is the legendary Miss Anguo Mansion, right?" I don't know if I want to please Mrs. Tai, or I praise it from the bottom of my heart, and someone immediately shouted, "I've only heard of the beauty of life, but I didn't expect it to be as beautiful as a fairy, tsk, if the son of that family marries back, I'm afraid that the concubine's heart will be rested." ”

As soon as they called this, many ladies looked this way, their eyes burning.

Xiuzhu stood inconspicuously in the corner of the hall and sneered, isn't Mrs. Liu still a peerless beauty? An Guogong is not the one on the left to wait for a concubine, and the one on the right to get a room to get home?

Therefore, whether to accept a concubine or not has little to do with a woman's beauty, it is all in the man's heart.

When everyone sat down, Xiuzhu sent cold dishes to the flower hall.

The flower hall is divided into left and right, separated by a screen in the middle, with men's seats on the left and female guests on the right.

Seeing the first dish, in the men's table, suddenly a man stood up from his seat suddenly, ignored everyone's eyes, walked over, bypassed the screen, came to Mrs. Tai, bent down and made a nephew salute, and said with a smile: "My nephew forgot to greet you on his birthday, I wish you an old man who lives longer than Nanshan Immortal Pine, every year has today, every year has today." ”

When Mrs. Tai saw that the prince of Ningyuan Marquis actually saluted him, she was also puzzled, and then laughed, and said several good things in a row. Later, he said: "The statue of Guanyin that you sent yesterday will be received tomorrow, and it is so beautiful, so you can offer it to the small Buddha hall." ”

Lu Kun smiled, complimented him a few more words, and retreated.

The flower hall, which was originally chaotic and full of human language, suddenly fell silent, and then someone whispered.

Most of the words also revolve around the two sisters of the Li family and the Hou Shizi of Ningyuan.

Xiuzhu listened to the complaints in his ears, the corners of his mouth were still upturned, and he commanded people to live at the table and deliver food.

Mrs. Tai patted Li Miaoxian and said proudly: "This child is virtuous and filial, and he has been helping to take care of things in the kitchen these days." He beckoned everyone to eat together.

The flower hall instantly fell silent again, and they all looked at Li Miaoxian.

They have all heard that in the past three days, the Marquis of Ningyuan has lived in the Anguo Mansion by recuperating from his illness. It is rumored that Li Miaoyu, the second lady of Ningyuan Hou Shiye, personally ran over to stop An Guogong from punishing her; Another way to say is that the Marquis of Ningyuan's Mansion fell in love with the eldest lady of the Anguo Mansion, and Concubine Lu Guifei had personally recruited her before. In the end, it is unknown who won the prize.

Xiuzhu stood at the door, listened to the gossip in his ears, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Li Miaoyu, only to see her smiling and smiling, sitting next to Mrs. Tai's hand, she had already blushed.

Li Miaoxian still put on her expression that nothing had anything to do with me, and ate tea indifferently.

The number of dishes on the table gradually filled the whole table, and the aroma of various foods mixed with the fat powder on the woman's body, making the whole flower hall fragrant.

Mrs. Gu was eating, and suddenly "huh", pointed to a pot of vegetables in front of her, and asked the maid behind her, "What kind of dish is this?" It seems that there is no list on the menu, and now the eldest lady is in charge of the kitchen, you go and ask her, what is going on? ”

Yin** responded, turned around and walked to Mrs. Tai's table.

Although Mrs. Gu is in charge of the house, her husband is only a small official of the fifth grade, so naturally he can't sit in the chief with Mrs. Tai, so he went down in turn, and he arrived in a very remote position.

Of course, the dishes have not changed, they are still on the list they listed, but there are some changes, such as replacing those ingredients that are abundant in other seasons but are expensive at this time with common dishes in autumn.

In this way, the cost of the entire banquet will be reduced by two-thirds. As a result, there is no need for Li Miaoxian to make up for it.

The taste of the dish, after improvement, not only did not deteriorate, but tasted much better.

For a while, Yin** went and returned, Li Miaoxian followed behind her, saw Mrs. Aunt, and asked softly, "Aunt is looking for Xian'er?" ”

Mrs. Gu sank her face, took chopsticks and nodded on one of the dishes, and asked, "I remember that there is a dish of fried spring bamboo shoots on the list for you, which is quite similar to this one......

Li Miaoxian doesn't like to eat, and he doesn't study eating and drinking, and when he heard Mrs. Gu ask, he naturally frowned and beckoned in the direction of Xiuzhu.
