Chapter 277: The Feast

Soon it was the fifth day of October.

Jin Chao told Cai Fu Yin to wake her up, and Cai Fu didn't dare to sleep too hard. hugged a quilt and took a nap outside the fan, opened his eyes for a while to see more leaks, and hurried in to call her when the time came.

It was dark outside, but the kitchenette was already boiling hot water. From time to time, the mother-in-law spoke softly.

Jin Chao couldn't even open his eyes, and was about to get up, but was hugged by Chen Sanye.

The other person was very alert, and he didn't wake up too much, and leaned his head against the side of Jin Chao's neck and asked her in a low voice, "What are you doing so early?" ”

Jin Chao wanted to take his arm away: "The concubine is going to the kitchen to watch, it's time to get up." You can sleep a little longer......" Chen Sanye doesn't have to get up too early. It's not too late to wait until Chen Zheng gets up, and when the guests in the outer courtyard come over one after another, many high-ranking and powerful people want Chen Sanye to entertain him personally.

Chen Sanye frowned and asked Caifu, "What time is it?" ”

Tsefu returned: "Yin Zheng. ”

Jin Chao pushed his arm: "You let me get up, otherwise the second sister-in-law should arrive." ”

Chen Sanye let go of her and sat up himself. Jin Chao looked at him: "What are you doing when you get up?" ”

"Anyway, I'm going to get up in another hour, so it's better to get up with you." Since she was busy, Chen Sanye didn't need her to serve and dress, so she took the straight jacket on the hanger and put it on. I'll come back after a while to change into the official uniform of the second grade to welcome guests.

The girl came in with something and a few red gowns, and Jin Chao hesitated between the water red and the crimson, feeling that he was too young to wear the water red. chose a crimson gown, and when combing her hair in a bun, she told the girl to comb a peony bun, the peony bun is complicated, she has always disliked it, and it is necessary today. The head face of the Dai is also a gold silk inlaid tourmaline stone hairpin and gold sideburns. When she got dressed, she felt like she looked a few years older, and she was satisfied.

Chen Sanye came out of the clean room, and Jin Chao asked him sideways, "What do you think, does it look majestic?" ”

Chen Sanye shook his head and smiled without saying a word.

He walked to Jin Chao's side, and the girl naturally stepped aside, he took a box of lipstick from hers, and sat diagonally on the dressing table. "Look up." He whispered, Jin Chao looked up at him, dipped his thin pen in lipstick, and lightly scribbled a few strokes on her lips.

The lipstick he chose was made of rose flower juice, and the color was not bright, but it was very beautiful.

Chen Sanye put down his lipstick and said, "I'll accompany you." "She hadn't taken care of this before, and he was afraid she didn't have experience.

Jin Chao shook his head: "Can you go, gentleman is far away from cooking." "How could she let Chen Sanye go with her.

Chen Sanye smiled: "Where am I a gentleman......" Thinking of following her, it was really inconvenient for her. Chen Sanye didn't insist, and changed his way, "Then you can take Mother Sun with you." As he spoke, he called Mother Sun in and instructed her: "Madame is pregnant with a child now, you can't be too tired, you have to watch her well." ”

Jin Chao said with a wry smile: "Third master, I haven't been so delicate. ”

Chen Sanye touched her hair and said, "You are so delicate now." Actually, I don't really want you to go,......" he paused, "Forget it, I'll go see you at noon." If you encounter something difficult, let someone tell me, you know? ”

Gu Jinchao nodded, and when he went out, it was already the end of the morning.

When she took a group of girls and mothers-in-law to the kitchen of the outer courtyard, the Qin family had already come.

The large kitchen in the outer courtyard is a house of three rooms with seven frames, and the Qin family is also dressed very gorgeously, weaving gold gowns in big red, and inserting two pairs of golden Fushou hairpins, and wearing earrings with rubies and grapes. She was sitting on a circle chair outside the verandah, drinking tea and listening to the steward talk to her. There was a large crowd of people around him. Seeing Gu Jinchao coming, the Qin clan was still a little surprised.

She also thought that Gu Jinchao didn't know the rules of the wedding banquet, and she had to sleep until Chen Zheng to get up.

"Quickly bring a chair for the third lady." Qin instructed the mother-in-law beside him, pulled Jin Chao to sit down, and said with a smile, "It's hard for you to come so early because you are pregnant, I thought you wouldn't come, I have already started ...... here."

The surrounding stewards and mothers-in-law are all from the outer courtyard, and many of them have never seen Gu Jinchao. They saluted.

"I'm just coming over to take a look and follow the second sister-in-law to learn more." Jin Chao smiled and asked those who asked her to get up, and they all rewarded Feng Hong.

Qin said, "Then you sit first." "Someone brought her white fungus soup and snacks.

The steward who was talking to the Qin clan just now continued: "Twenty-four dishes, twelve large and twelve small, cold meat, fresh fruits, and dried fruits were prepared a few days ago. There are nine kinds of hot meat, the sea cucumber roasted with green onion is complicated, and the stinging cucumber is not big enough...... If you move to the back, I'm afraid there won't be enough time. Because in the hot meat, ham, shredded chicken, winter melon soup, and stewed mutton should come out later. ”

Qin Shi frowned: "Who is sending the stinging ginseng, didn't these things get ready earlier?" ”

The steward said curtly: "Yesterday, I had to prepare cold meat, as well as dried peanuts and fried cashew nuts, and the people below were not too cautious......

Qin discussed it with a few mothers-in-law before saying, "Then let's do it first, add more water when simmering." ”

The steward took the command.

As the day gradually brightened, there were more people coming and going in the kitchen, and there was an endless stream of food deliveries.

Fortunately, the inner courtyard has its own small kitchen, otherwise the large kitchen in the outer courtyard would definitely not be busy. Gu Jinchao looked at the plates of dishes on the table and thought secretly. She didn't say much, if the Qin family asked her to help see something, she would help take a look by the way.

They don't need to step into the kitchen, there are also stewards and mothers-in-law to take care of them, and the Qin family only needs to make a judgment on things.

Jin Chao remembered that in her previous life, when Chen Xuanxin was married, she had already been fed by the Lord, and it was also such a scene. Chen Xuanxin's marriage came suddenly, she was much busier than now at that time, the Qin family and the Ge family couldn't do things, and Mrs. Chen was not in good health, so the Wang family helped her watch the ceremony. She was so busy alone, not only to take care of the kitchen but also to manage the guests, and finally when the newcomers visited the church, she was so tired that her body was about to fall apart.

A mother-in-law came in and talked to the Qin family: "...... Mrs. Lu came over with her daughter-in-law. ”

Mrs. Lu's husband and Second Master Chen are colleagues, and the two have a good relationship. Even with the relationship between the Qin family and Mrs. Lu.

The Qin clan stood up and said to Jin Chao with a smile: "I'm afraid I have to go out and have a look first, you guard the third brother and sister here, if you are not sure, just send someone to tell me." ”

Gu Jinchao didn't mind: "Second sister-in-law, go ahead, I'll watch here." ”

Qin took his mother-in-law out of the big kitchen, and her mother-in-law whispered: "Madam, the third lady has no experience, what if she can't do it well." Aren't you going to be blamed by Mrs. Tai too......"

"I'll have to let someone do it." Qin said lightly, "If she can't do well, I'll come over and clean up the mess for her...... She is a yellow-haired girl, can she be the burden of the housemother? "If you don't do it well, it's better to let Mrs. Chen see who is the one who can be of great use. Mrs. Chen's thoughts are clear. keeps saying that the concubines are treated equally, and when this time comes, she is not more interested in the daughter-in-law of her own son.

As soon as the Qin family left, a mother-in-law immediately came over and asked, "Third lady, you can't put this hot meat down, do you want to add a few more cases?" ”

Gu Jinchao thought about it for a while, and asked, "I can't let it go, what did you do first?" ”

The mother-in-law said: "It's a steamed goose paw." ”

"When the goose paw is cold, it will not have a flavor." Gu Jin said, "If you can't bring it out, just put it in the steaming room." ”

The mother-in-law promised to go.

A few more men came and asked for orders. Mother Sun wanted to come forward to help, but found that she couldn't use it at all. Gu Jinchao is not in a hurry, and he is very organized. It was also well arranged. And she knows a lot about cooking, so she doesn't even have to ask her back.

Gu Jinchao said with a dry mouth, and picked up the teacup to drink tea. Several stewards were waiting for her to command, and they didn't dare to come out.

This Mrs. Chen San is still young, but she is very decisive in her words and deeds.

When the matter here was almost busy, thinking that the guests were almost here, Gu Jinchao explained a few words before getting up and going to the banquet place.

Mother Sun praised her on the way: "...... I can't believe you know so much about what's going on on the stove. The slave maid thought that the second lady was gone, and you would ask the slave maid to help. ”

Gu Jinchao smiled: "I used to learn at home, so I know a little bit." ”

Step into the banquet place, which is full of guests and friends. Old Madam Chen was sitting in the middle talking to an old woman, and the Qin family was waiting by her side. Seeing her coming, Mrs. Chen took her hand and introduced her to others.

By noon, the dishes were served like water. Old Madam Chen praised the Jin Dynasty and the Qin clan with a smile on her face: "The banquet is very well done!" ”

Qin smiled and bent down, not saying anything.

Gongs, drums and firecrackers rang out outside. The mother-in-law brought peanuts, longan and copper coins and scattered them outside, and the children who picked up the copper coins were all smiling. Gu Jinchao sat next to the window sash and glanced outside...... I don't know where Chen Sanye is eating.

It wasn't until the end of Shen Shi's time that the bride's dowry was brought into the Chen family, and then the procession of welcoming relatives came back with a bang. Firecrackers were set off outside, and the noise of human voices and the sound of gongs and drums were very lively.

Chen Sanye stood in front of the leaky window of the study, looking at the scene of lights in the house. The noise seemed to be very far away.

Jiang Yan behind him whispered, "...... The subordinates have already figured out that it was not Gu Lan who drugged those dim sums, but a girl from Yao Wenxiu...... But now Gu Lan has been locked up by Mrs. Yao San, and Mrs. Yao San believes that she did it. She is now crying and saying that she wants to see Mrs. Yao San, that she is innocent, and that she has something important to tell Mrs. Yao San, so that she can save her life......"

Since it has nothing to do with Yao Ping, Chen Sanye doesn't care very much.

He turned to look at Jiang Yan and said lightly: "Madame's matter, have you found out?" ”

Jiang Yan continued: "What the subordinates want to say is exactly related to Madame. Madame used to live in Shi'an, and there are many people who know her, but time has passed, and others can't say it clearly...... The subordinates found a girl who had served the Gu family, and the girl had married far away to Baoding Shulu, and the subordinates had to force her to speak before they could inquire clearly. ”R1152
