Chapter 124: Soup Kitchen (M) (Pink Ticket 1200)
In charge of the grange in his hometown in Henan...... That's a very trusted domestic servant!
Eleven Niang smiled and nodded at Xiangyi.
Xiangyi hurriedly stepped forward to salute Eleven Niang: "Slave Xiangyi, I've seen the fourth lady!" ”
Eleven Niang didn't expect to see outsiders at this time, but fortunately, she inserted two golden hairpins on her head and pulled one out for Xiangyi as a meeting gift.
Xiangyi thanked and thanked.
Mrs. Tai smiled: "Okay, okay, Xiangyi is not an outsider." You don't have to be so polite. He smiled and said to Eleven Niang, "I have a duck hot pot to eat today." ”
Xiangyi hurriedly added with a smile: "The ducks fed in my Zhuangzi are made according to the recipes left by the ancestors in the past." ”
It seems to be a hometown specialty!
Eleven Niang smiled: "Okay! It's a blessed day. ”
Sitting in the small room where the ingredients were put in the kitchen, drinking the evening fragrance of Bazhen hen soup, and putting down the blue and white porcelain sea bowl: "In this way, the fragrance is back!" ”
"yes!" Liu Wu's daughter-in-law on the stove sneered, "A whole car of board ducks!" ”
Wanxiang snorted disdainfully: "Count her smart, she knows how to please Mrs. Tai with this." However, she can please Mrs. Tai with this skill. ”
"Yes." Liu Wu's daughter-in-law smiled, "Where can I compare with you, the kitchen in the inner courtyard depends on you." Without you, I really can't turn around. ”
"Alright, alright." Wan Xiang's face was a little unsightly, "You don't tell me that these are useless." I ask you, do I want ginseng with a spectrum or not? ”
Liu Wu's daughter-in-law looked embarrassed, and her voice lowered: "You know." Now each room is cooked according to the recipe, and the seasoning is also according to the amount, where is there more ginseng? ”
Wan Xiang's face sank, and the sea bowl in her hand fell on the table with a "snap".
Liu Wu's daughter-in-law hurriedly held the bowl: "Sister Wanxiang, you lighten it." Gan Laoquan's goddaughter-in-law is ordering food outside! ”
"Whew!" Wan Xiang's face was full of anger, "When I was in charge of the kitchen, she didn't know where it was. Dare to her tail in front of me and watch me slap her to death. His voice was a little lower.
Liu Wu's daughter-in-law understood in her heart.
This is a son of heaven and a courtier, and the good days of Mrs. Hou's accompanying maid Wanxiang walking sideways in the house have come to an end!
She couldn't help muttering, "It's not that I want to eat this ginseng...... What's more, the wind is so tight now...... That Huang Pozi just looked at you and said. Why do you want to do this! ”
"What do you say?" Wan Xiang faintly heard something "wronged", not very real, and said with some annoyance, "If you have anything to say, say it happily, what are you doing in hiding?" ”
Liu Wu's daughter-in-law did not dare to speak. A woman outside shouted evening incense: "Sister-in-law of the Chen family, the dishes are ready, do you want to order them?" ”
Wanxiang got up and patted the placket of her clothes, walked to the door, squinted at Gan Laoquan's goddaughter-in-law, and said with a smile: "I want to go to the thatched house, you wait!" With that, he walked away.
The daughter-in-law was so angry that she stomped her foot - she brought the food, she wanted to draw a charge, she drew a charge, and then sent the list to the kitchen comprador, and the errand was finished. Evening fragrance has been picked more than once.
The kitchen is full of people pretending not to see it, what they were doing, and what they are still doing!
And a woman winked at the daughter-in-law.
The daughter-in-law excused herself and walked out.
The woman followed: "...... What are you afraid of, just wait here. What does the person who didn't collect the food have to do with you? ”
The daughter-in-law's eyes lit up and she asked the woman, "What's your name?" I reported my godfather to reuse you! ”
Over there, Wanxiang went back to her house.
His man, Chen Xuzheng, was holding a plate of peanuts and a bottle of Lao Baigan, humming "Shiro visits his mother" and is almost alive. When he saw Wanxiang coming back, he was surprised: "You don't collect vegetables in the kitchen, what are you doing when you come back?" ”
Wan Xiang glanced at Chen Xu coldly, turned around and entered the inner room, rummaging through the boxes and cabinets to find things.
Chen Xu has lost his errand now, and he lives by relying on the monthly routine of evening incense, so he hurriedly got up and pulled her: "Okay, okay, don't lose your temper, let's talk about the dishes after receiving them." ”
Wanxiang shook off Chen Xu's hand, made a straight face and continued to look in the box.
"Wanxiang, don't fight with the third lady's people." He has always been used to being oppressed by his wife, and persuaded her in a low voice, "What can you do like this?" You don't go to collect the food, everyone freezes there. When the time comes, the dinner in each room is late, and it is not to be held accountable to you. ”
Wan Xiang raised her head and glared at her husband when she heard this: "Doesn't she just want to masturbate me?" Didn't I give her a chance? ”
"Then why bother!" Chen Xu accompanied the smiling face, "You are also a character with a head and a face, you don't have to be like her." ”
Wan Xiang listened to it, but her heart was even more angry: "Chen Xu, you don't give me here and mud." Let me tell you, if the fourth lady is not at home for a day, my errand will be finished sooner or later. Rather than her me on my head at that time, it would be better to just shoot it in two. ”
"Yes, it's a smiling face," you said all right, you said all right. ”
It's okay for her husband to do things, but he just doesn't have a brain.
Wanxiang didn't bother to pay attention to him, and took care of herself to find a clean wooden box from the box: "Found it!" ”
Chen Xu looked startled: "What are you going to do here?" ”
"Send it to Mrs. Huang." Evening incense opened the box, and it contained seven or eight chopstick-length ginseng.
"You're crazy." Chen Xu snatched the box, "It turned out that you were in the kitchen and had the opportunity to help her get ginseng, but now these things are not in your hands...... We can't take out our own things and give them to others! ”
"Bring it!" Evening Cam snatched the box back, "What do you know?" You have lost your errand now, and I am now being trampled on the head, if you can't even take care of such an old friendship, who will be able to look at it when you walk around the house in the future. This one is enough for their family for a year. Maybe things will turn around again. You don't care about it. I have my own opinions. As he spoke, he took a bottle of ginseng from the box and wrapped it in a handkerchief, carried it in his arms and left.
Chen Xu looked at his wife's back and couldn't help muttering: "Mrs. Huang is really ...... Her son was sick and wanted to eat ginseng, so he bought it himself...... People are slapping you like this, just trying to get something from you? You really treat people like sisters......"
Wan Xiang took the ginseng and walked quickly to the kitchen.
When I walked under the eaves, I heard Mrs. Huang shouting loudly: "I'm too busy here, let me send someone to help with the soup kitchen?" Whose idea was this? I can't get people here! ”
Wanxiang listened to Yixi and avoided the side.
"It's the meaning of the third lady." A woman smiled and said, "My words are brought, and it's up to you whether you want to go or not." With that, he walked out.
Wanxiang looked at the woman wearing an official green silk jacket and a red silk flower on her head, and knew that it was Gan Laoquan's niece, and only entered the kitchen after she left.
Mrs. Huang was splashed with face, and she was angry, and when she saw Wanxiang coming in, she hurriedly changed her smile and greeted her: "Why is Sister Wanxiang here?" "I'm busy asking my daughter-in-law on the stove below to make tea.
Wan Xiang sighed, took out ginseng from her arms and handed it to Huang Pozi: "Good sister, it's just that I don't have this ability." This is one hidden in the family, let's give it to my eldest nephew to eat first! ”
Mrs. Huang's face changed slightly when she heard this, and she said, "What's wrong?" ”
Wanxiang said strictly how the third lady was managed: "...... Not to mention ginseng, even ordinary wolfberries can't get their hands on them. But the eldest nephew was bitter, and after eating ginseng for two years, he was just short of this breath. ”
Mrs. Huang couldn't help but feel bitter when she heard this, and took Wanxiang's hand: "Good sister, if it weren't for you in the past few years, your eldest nephew would have died a long time ago." Don't say that! ”
Wan Xiang wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief: "I thought I could take care of my eldest nephew's illness...... But I didn't expect that a third lady would come out halfway, as long as she was in charge for a day, this thing would not be easy to do for a day......"
"What does this have to do with my sister......
The two were sad for a long time.
Wan Xiang got up: "I'm still waiting to collect the vegetables over there, and I'll come to see my sister when I'm free someday." ”
Someone outside also shouted Huang Pozi: "Why haven't there been any people who go to soup kitchen?" The third master is about to leave for the porridge shed. ”
Mrs. Huang said yes loudly, arranged for someone to go to the porridge shed, and Wanxiang slowly returned to the kitchen in the inner courtyard.
“…… During the years when I was filial piety in my hometown in Henan, I was served by the two of them. Xu Lingyi sighed a little, "In the blink of an eye, it's been almost ten years!" ”
Eleven Niang followed Xu Lingyi and walked back slowly, and the flying snowflakes were all blocked out of the verandah.
"How old was Master Hou at that time?"
Xu Lingyi glanced at Eleven Niang and said with a smile: "Not much older than you?" ”
Eleven Niang teased: "Will you be afraid?" ”
Xu Lingyi was silent for a long time: "I don't remember!" ”
Eleven Niang felt that he was a little depressed, and changed the topic with a smile: "This year's snow is really big!" ”
Xu Lingyi stopped when he heard this, and looked at the snow outside the verandah, his expression a little stunned.
Eleven Niang couldn't help but secretly complain.
He wants to remember here, does he have to stand here and be frozen!
Just as he was thinking, two red lanterns came to him.
Eleven Niang looked at it, and it turned out to be Aunt Qin with two maids with lanterns.
"Master Hou, madam." She bent her knees to salute the two, but looked at Xu Lingyi worriedly, "I see that you haven't come back yet, so come out to welcome you." ”
Eleven Niang looked at Xu Lingyi again, and he had regained his usual cold and calm.
"Got it." He said lightly, "Let's go back, everyone!" ”
Aunt Qin whispered "yes" and followed the two into the courtyard.
Eleven Niang smiled and broke up with Xu Lingyi at the door of the east corner and went back to the house.
The maid in the house was busy uncloaking and pouring hot tea for her.
Amber couldn't help but whisper: "Aunt Qin's courage is also too big...... I can't wait to welcome the marquis! ”
Eleven Niang held the hot tea, thinking of Xu Lingyi's indifferent expression when she stood on the verandah and watched the snowflakes, she couldn't help but shake her head slightly: "Not necessarily!" ”
"What?" Amber wondered.
Yiniang smiled, "I mean, Aunt Qin really knows Hou Ye very well. Then he suddenly remembered with an expression, "By the way, I asked you to inquire about the house in Goldfish Lane, but what is the news?" ”
Amber hurriedly said: "Thanks to Wan Daxian and Wan Erxian climbing to the roof in the middle of the night to clear the snow, only one of the ear rooms collapsed. Nothing else! ”
"This Wan Daxian is a capable one!" Eleven Niang couldn't help but bow slightly.
Amber was worried: "It needs to be repaired here, it needs to be rectified there, and when spring begins tomorrow, how much money will we have to spend!" ”
Eleven Niang couldn't help laughing.
