Chapter 131: Hiring

The ingredients sent by the royal mansion are very rich, and the pot is a versatile way to eat, so Chen Xiuyan doesn't need to prepare extra, just using the ingredients sent by the royal mansion is enough.

Fresh venison and mutton are cut into thin slices, fresh live black fish is cut into thin slices, pork belly is removed and chopped into puree, accompanied by good seasonings to make hand-beaten meatballs, and shrimp is removed from the shrimp line, half of which is left with the original flavor and hot, and the other half is made into shrimp slippery, which can make the current ancients taste the modern delicacy.

The meat dishes are almost over, Chen Xiuyan began to organize the materials, there are few vegetables in winter, but Chen Xiuyan has space, so the fresh vegetables at home will not be broken, of course, Chen Xiuyan will not take out too much, just take some bean sprouts, spinach, lettuce out, plus cabbage, radish, potatoes, taro that are already in the cellar.

The staple food is dumplings and noodles, and the pot is eaten until the end of the soup and cooked to a full meal.

The two tables of eight immortals are full of prepared ingredients, in the middle is a large pot, the soup stewed in the pot, Chen Xiuyan boiled the soup with big bones, dried mushrooms and radish, halfway through the pot, and then add half of the hot water, the soup is not too oily and very delicious.

The most important thing in the pot is the dipping sauce, Chen Xiuyan used the soybean paste she took from her mother's house, mixed it with the peanut butter she made, added some soy sauce and a little vinegar, sprinkled with some green onions and mixed well, people who like spicy can add it themselves, Chen Xiuyan cut an extra plate of chili peppers.

When Mrs. Yuan and Granny Su came, they were a little surprised to see the battle prepared by Chen Xiuyan, "This is made of shrimp meat, with flour?" ”

"Yes, I also put egg whites, which makes it more tender and smooth." Chen Xiuyan has nothing to hide.

"I didn't expect there to be venison, lamb and shrimp, this pot is very good." Mrs. Yuan hadn't eaten venison and fresh seafood for a long time, and she was looking forward to it when she saw it.

"In a few days, the palace will send other seafood, and then come back to eat." Tao Lao glanced at Mrs. Yuan and said.

"Yes." Mrs. Yuan did not refuse, on the contrary, she was a little happy.

Wang Yajie was very happy that he could live in Luo's house, and he was surprised by dinner on the first day.

Of course, he was not the only one who was fragrant, all of them were eating with great interest, Tao Lao drank rice wine, which tasted delicious, even Mrs. Yuan drank rice wine, and a few small Chen Xiuyan prepared sugar water for them.

A group of people, two tables, eat that one cleanly.

A few days later, at the seafood dinner, Chen Xiuyan was still in charge of the cooking, and she was still such a person, and the days were gradually advancing lively.

November 18, the auspicious day of the zodiac, on this day, Chen Xiuyan asked the official media to send Luo Mingqing's dowry, and Chen Xiuyan helped him prepare twenty-six loads.

The bride price is 288 taels, a box of jewelry, these two valuables are a load at the beginning, and then there is a load of fabric, a load of dried seafood, three animal gifts, a pair of chickens, a pair of geese, fresh fish, old wine, four-color dried fruits......

A burden of dowry with the blowing joy from Luojiatang Village, the official media on the side of the joyful, such a real dowry she has only seen in a large family, now finally understand the reason why people are willing to marry the only daughter to Luo Mingqing, the Luo family not only has a good future, but also a thick foundation.

The Cai family knew today that the Luo family was going to be hired, and they were ready early in the morning, Mrs. Cai's kitchen had already been to the kitchen three times, and a bowl of brown sugar ginger tea to ward off the cold was a must, and two tables of dried fruits, candy and other refreshments were also prepared early.

Lord Cai also took leave early in the morning and waited at home, waiting for the joy to come from not far away, he stood up with a smile, thought about it and sat down again.

Mrs. Cai couldn't sit still, although she didn't go to the door to look, but she also let the personal maid take a look.

"Madam, madam, there are a lot of dowries from the Locke family, and the slaves and maids listen to the people on the street talking about it." The maid rejoiced.

Lord Cai and Mrs. Cai both smiled when they heard this.

Waiting for the dowry to arrive, Lord Cai and Mrs. Cai were also surprised, the bride price is moderate, not high or low, but the jewelry is too valuable, I didn't expect the Luo family to be so generous, looking at the heart more and more happy, this is the importance of their own daughter.

Lord Cai and Mrs. Cai smiled and asked the bearer to go to the hall to drink ginger tea and eat refreshments, and stuffed a red envelope for the leader to invite the big guy to have a good meal, and the official media also gave a red envelope.

After sending people out of the door, Mrs. Cai was not in a hurry to put away the dowry, after all, someone would come to congratulate and take a closer look.

The dowry of the Locke family was completely handful, and Mrs. Cai laughed all day, and her face stiffened before sending the guest relatives out of the door.

"It seems that the dowry for Xiang'er has to be compacted again." Mrs. Cai had planned to give everything she could take away as a dowry to her daughter, but she didn't expect that the Luo family would give twenty-six loads, and she prepared eighteen loads for her daughter, plus what she could take away would have to be more than thirty loads, so she could only press the box to the brim.

Cai Baoxiang blushed and looked at the dowry gift from the Luo family, and her smile never went down.

Luo Mingqing's heart finally let go of most of it, and then went to thank Chen Xiuyan.

"Little aunt, I'm sorry for you." Luo Mingqing was embarrassed, and it was difficult to hide his happiness.

"It should." Chen Xiuyan replied with a smile, "A few of your relatives and aunts will do their best to make it beautiful for you." ”

On this day, Chen Xiuyan received all the money saved by Luo Mingqing, Luo Mingchu, Luo Mingnian and Luo Mingxin brothers and sisters for the first time.

"Little aunt, I turned it in once before, and you didn't accept it, but you must take it this time." Luo Mingqing said firmly, "I spent a lot of money on marrying a daughter-in-law, all of whom are uncles and aunts, and it is far from enough for me to spend all of them." ”

"Little aunt, I'll hand it in too." Luo Mingnian was holding a small box and said in a childish voice.

"Me too." Luo Mingchu has no opinion on Chen Xiuyan for a long time, on the contrary, he likes it a little, but the well-known wooden character can't say anything obedient.

Luo Mingxin and Chen Xiuyan are the closest girls, so they directly put her box in Chen Xiuyan's hand, "It's all for the little aunt." ”

Chen Xiuyan frowned slightly, "Ming Qing, you are about to marry a daughter-in-law, this contract should be given to your future daughter-in-law." ”

"Auntie, if you don't help us set up an estate or something." Luo Mingchu suggested.

Chen Xiuyan thought deeply and said, "Ming Chu's idea is good, Ming Qing, the little aunt made it clear to you that in the future, the external affairs of the family will fall on your shoulders." ”

Luo Mingqing's expression was a little more serious when he heard this, and he nodded firmly, "Little aunt, I know." ”

"You have been doing a good job, and the accounts of the income of the family's Zhuangzi, shop, and land are also very clear, but these are not enough."

Chen Xiuyan's words made Luo Mingqing's eyes show a hint of asking for advice, "Little aunt, please advise." ”
