Hou Ye couldn't help laughing, "Of course it's Halloween, the day after tomorrow you will enter the palace for a banquet, aren't you going to go to the dim sum shop tomorrow to prepare a birthday cake and stay in the Hou Mansion at night?" ”

"Oops, I forgot!" Jiayin glared in surprise.

I've been playing a little too harpy these days, and I have to make up for my homework in the space at night, but I have completely forgotten about such a big thing.

Hou Ye took her hand, went into the house to salute Mrs. Li, and went back to his yard with a few simple instructions.

Second Mrs. Jia originally accompanied Mrs. Li to do needlework and gossip, seeing this, she guessed that Hou Ye was going to eat here at noon, so she wanted to take the jewel and leave quickly.

Although Baozhu was half full, he was reluctant to have good news.

Jiayin said: "Didn't you say that Sister Wan'er's younger brother has always wanted to play in the white clouds?" I'll be in the shop for most of the day tomorrow, why don't you bring him over to play?" ”

"Really, great!" Baozhu was easily coaxed into joy, and said goodbye to his mother, and hurried to his uncle's house to tell his cousin the good news.

Wan'er put down the soup bowl and went back to the Wen family.

In this way, when the meal was ready, Shui Ling went to invite Hou Ye over.

Your own family doesn't have to avoid suspicion.

Even though the brothers Li Lao Er and Li Lao Si were not at home, Mrs. Li sat on the main seat, Tao Hongying and Wen Juan also sat on one side, and Jiayin and Hou Ye sat on the other side.

Mrs. Li was worried about her granddaughter being bullied when she entered the palace, but she didn't tell the Hou Ye.

Hou Ye was not annoyed, and responded one by one, and finally made Mrs. Li embarrassed.

"Master Hou, don't blame me for nagging, it's really Fu Niu'er, this child suffered a loss in the palace last time, and the family is too distressed.

"If it weren't for the emperor's treatment of Fu Niu'er really well, and she has the title of county lord, the family really doesn't want her to enter the palace."

Hou Ye nodded and said, "Auntie, don't worry, the day after tomorrow, I will take Fu Niu'er to meet the emperor first, and then let the emperor send a eunuch to follow him to Shoukang Palace." In this way, there is someone who has malice in his heart, and he does not dare to embarrass Fu Niu'er. ”

"Okay, that's for the best." Mrs. Li responded: "Go back and let Mama He follow her into the palace, she is from the palace and is more familiar with the rules of the palace than others." ”

Mama He happened to be waiting on the side, and replied directly: "If the old lady doesn't say it, the old slave will also take the initiative to ask for help."

"But don't worry, the old lady has learned the rules of the county lord very well, and now she is also familiar with the maps of various families, and she must be able to deal with a little thing."

After that, she said: "If the old lady is still not at ease, then let Shui Ling and Shui Yun follow together." The old slave just took the opportunity to talk to the old sisters in the palace to gossip, listen to whether there are any taboos in the palace in the past year and a half, and let the county lord avoid it. ”

"Okay, you're familiar with this, so I'll leave it to you to arrange." Mrs. Li directly delegated her authority and instructed: "After a while, you can help see what dress Fu Niuer wears and what jewelry she wears."

"After all, it's a palace banquet, and our family doesn't want to be high-profile, but we can't be too shabby to look down on."

"Yes, old lady." Mama He responded with a smile.

With such a reason, after eating, Hou Ye went home.

The Li family closed the door here, and the old girls got together and chattered.

A month ago, the chief housekeeper of the Hou Mansion asked the embroidery lady in the mansion to prepare a new dress for the county lord.

There are four sets in total, and they are hanging in the closet.

Each set is carefully made by the embroiderer, and everyone is dazzled.

In the end, it was the old lady who made the decision, and ordered a goose-yellow brocade placket jacket, with a fruit-green pleated skirt and a pair of small deerskin boots with gold thread.

Pair it with a white fox fur cape.

Because Jiayin is still young, it is not easy to wear too much jewelry, and it is too public.

Therefore, it is good to wear a red coral pearl inlaid gold wire entwined hair ring on your head, and wear an auspicious Ruyi Liufu red gold lock on your chest.

At the request of everyone, Jiayin put on all the clothes and jewelry, and even Mama He quickly recombed her hair.

Mrs. Li, Tao Hongying and others looked at the fat girl from head to toe, and felt that there was nothing missing, so they could be relieved.

Good. Mannequin. Yin was tossed for more than half an hour, and it was finally time to stop working.

She lay on the kang and pretended to be dead, not even wanting to lift a finger.

Tao Hongying smiled and knocked on her daughter's head, and said angrily: "Don't play Laipi!" You just reach out and be a scarecrow, and the rest are served, and you get tired of it. It's okay to be at home, but you have to look like you when you go out.

"It's okay if you lose your face, our Li family is from a mud leg, and we are not afraid that people will say that the child has no rules. But you went with Hou Ye this time, it's not good to embarrass Hou Ye, understand?

"Master Hou's prestige was earned back after fighting for his life, you can't add glory to his face, and you must not discredit him!"

"Got it, mother!" Jiayin Lou shook her mother's neck, and she was rarely coquettish, "Oh, my mother-in-law is so reasonable, no wonder she can teach a good girl like me!" ”

Tao Hongying was amused and couldn't stop laughing, and slapped her daughter again, "Are you praising me, or praising yourself?!" ”

The crowd laughed and gossiped, and their men were busy arranging their clothes and jewelry.

The cold wind howled outside, the night was deep, but the house was warm......

Early in the morning of the second day, Hou Ye took Jiayin to get into the carriage and went directly into the city.

Mr. Li Lao Er and Mr. Wen have been very busy these days and did not come back last night.

Therefore, the carriage sent the good news to Baiyunjian, and Hou Ye went to the Yamen of the Ministry of War.

In the past two days, Chen Xi and Peng's shopkeeper have been waiting for the eyes of the proprietor to be sent to the city gate.

When they finally saw the owner, they hurried forward and asked questions.

Speaking of which, they had made a small cake before, and they had also sent it to the emperor to eat, but the birthday cake they had to prepare this time was different.

Six floors, six whole floors!

Chen Xiguang drew seven or eight versions of the design drawing!

Jia Yin doesn't really care about the pattern and meaning of the cake, because any version is sure to be festive.

She is more concerned about security.

With such a big cake, Uncle Huang must be happy to see it, so he naturally wants to share it with the people at the banquet.

If something goes wrong with eating, it's a bad thing.

In fact, the best way to avoid trouble is not to give something like cake.

It's a pity that Baiyunjian is so famous, and the birthday cake has become so popular that everyone knows it.

The emperor's big boss celebrates his birthday, and he doesn't put one on the table, it's just unreasonable!

Luckily, she has room for this cheating artifact!

The front yard of the small courtyard is a static space, and what you put in it is the same when you take it out.

Jiayin thought about it for a while, and then said, "Master Chen, you first make two six-layer cakes to practice your hands." Of course, the material is rare, or do it better, let's see the effect first.

"If it's okay, I'll do it when I get up tomorrow morning, and then send it directly to the palace."

"Yes, host." Chen Xi hurriedly responded.

Jiayin also instructed the shopkeeper Peng, "It's just today, but the ingredients to be used tomorrow morning must be strictly inspected, and there must be no mistakes, otherwise everyone will lose their heads!"

"The master and the young man in the courtyard are not allowed to go out of the shop tonight, and after the cake is delivered to the palace tomorrow, they will resume walking."

"Yes, don't worry, I can save it. I didn't let everyone go home yesterday, and I've been in the shop all the time. ”

Shopkeeper Peng was originally a royal servant, but he had heard too much of the troubles caused by eating.

Therefore, since he knew that his shop was going to send a birthday cake into the palace, he was in good spirits......
