Zhou Ting didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and his heart sank down.

"Yin and Yang weird, speak well."

"Why?" It's still not worth it for the master, but he didn't say anything uncomfortable to listen to, "Master, do you want to go and see Mrs. Cheng?" Today. You've only met in the morning, and you haven't seen each other since."

Zhou Ting had this intention, but thinking of his exhaustion at the moment, he shook his head, "Go back to bathing and changing clothes first."

The master and servant returned to the Summer Palace, did not shout hot water and sent it, and waited for Zhou Ting to finish bathing; Dressed neatly, his hair was dried, and a bowl of tonic soup was brought.

"Master, drink some soup to moisten your throat."

"Hmm."

picked up the soup bowl and took a sip, then wiped his mouth without the handkerchief handed over, put the handkerchief on the table, and then got up and walked out of the Summer Palace; Turned around and walked into Tao Yiyuan, and after entering, I realized that Mingyi had not had dinner.

"Lord Shizi."

Mama Zhao walked out of the hall with the subordinates holding the trays, and faced the master and servant of the Zhou Court.

"Up."

Walk past them into the hall, and do not stand still at the door.

Mama Zhao looked at Buwei, "No, father-in-law, don't you go in?"

"No, I haven't seen Mrs. Cheng for a day, so I don't want others to be by the side at this time." Don't shake your head lightly.

Mama Zhao was surprised, looked back at Mama Rong who came out with her, and smiled helplessly, "Sister Rong also came out."

"Laugh at me." Mama Rong's face was full of helplessness, she turned her head and looked at the two masters sitting at the table, shook her head and chuckled, "Let's go, let's not be an eyesore here; Sister Zhao isn't going to the big kitchen, let's go quickly."

"Okay, let's talk."

Mama Zhao said and left quickly.

didn't look at Mama Rong, and went with her to sit down at the stone table in the courtyard.

Inside the house.

Zhou Ting held chopsticks for Mingyi's cloth dishes, gentle and considerate and thoughtful, "Yiyi is doing well today."

"Huh?" She turned her head to look at his face, gentleness was gentleness, but it was a little different from the usual gentleness, "How did Chaosheng know that I was doing well?"

"Is there anything else in the palace that can be hidden from me?"

Mingyi couldn't help laughing, how could this person be like vinegar, they couldn't be sure; It's not okay for friends to be so jealous, she didn't say yes for a day, they were just friends.

"Zhou Shizi is wise and martial, where can he hide anything from Zhou Shizi; As long as Zhou Shizi wants to know, there is an ear report god by your side."

is not to be regarded as the right-hand man who serves Zhou Ting on the surface, in fact, there is comfort in secret.

The palace said that the big is very big, and the small is also very small; There are so many places, and there are only so many subordinates, and in order to facilitate the management of the subordinates, the leading stewards among the subordinates are Zhou Ting's henchmen or henchmen. Coupled with the people who were planted inside, it couldn't be easier for Zhou Ting to know about the affairs of the palace.

However, these connections can not be cultivated in one or two days, but can be cultivated in three or four years.

Think about it three or four years ago, Zhou Ting was only eight. At the age of nine, he already knows how to plan for himself.

There are also bad things about growing up in a deep house compound, too precocious, and you have to plan for yourself early; If the plan is not in place, it is very likely that the final loss will be a bright future for a lifetime.

"It's still young, it's a little conscienceless." Seeing her smile brightly teasing, Zhou Ting's heart was itching, and she raised her hand to pinch the baby fat on her face, "Today's birthday, I am the busiest one; Fortunately, there are teachers, and they are not for the help of the housekeeper."

Mingyi smiled embarrassedly, pulled his hand down and grabbed it, "That can't be helped, who put you in this position; There are a lot of people who come to talk to you, you have mastered the northwest at a young age, and anyone with a little eye can see that they can't test your bottom line in advance, and find out your deeds and preferences."

The subordinates of the Zhou Wangfu have a strong eye, and they will not talk about the affairs of the masters; Those people couldn't find out the news, so they naturally danced in front of the main master.

Trying to find out Zhou Ting's preferences, even if it's just a little bit.

People say that gifts should be sent to people's hearts, and in officialdom, it is the most basic quality for them to please Shangguan.

"It's better to do things well than anything else." Zhou Ting was noncommittal about this, "It's better to do something practical for the people; Officialdom is not right, but it cannot be changed overnight."

Mingyi nodded, the endless cycle formed over the years, if you want to change, you can only cut from the root and chop off the necrotic roots.

"You're right, why bother if you know."

"Hmm." He was not happy, he saw more corruption at a banquet, and he inevitably felt sorrow in his heart, "Don't talk about them, eat, you eat more; There are more ingredients prepared in the house, and there are more patterns than before."

In the past, they did not treat their masters badly, but they did not have a rich feast during the New Year's holidays.

Some dishes can only be eaten on important occasions, and it takes many hours for the chef to make them because of the trouble.

Mingyi smiled and served him vegetables, and the two of them served each other's dishes, and they ate quite happily.

After the meal, eating the melons and fruits sent by Mama Zhao and chatting, Zhou Ting intentionally or unintentionally revealed the things around him; Mingyi understood his plans, and wanted to invisibly and silently subtly influence her and let her understand him better.

But she's too young, so she still has to play stupid.

After walking for a while, Zhou Ting went back to Heyun Courtyard in advance, and Mingyi was bored and continued to develop rouge gouache; It's not suitable for reading at night, it's not good for your eyes, so make something else, and only make rouge is the most suitable for it.

Mama Zhao and Mama Rong were waiting, and Mingyi also tried to make rouge.

The three of them lit the wax, focused on making rouge, and quietly poured it cleanly.

.......

As soon as the banquet was over, Mingyi once again plunged into the busy academic process, and the store sorted out the charter and handed it to Xi's shopkeeper; Zhou Ting sent an old doctor who was proficient in acupuncture and acupuncture points to the shop, so that the people in the massage group could follow along.

Busy on both sides.

Mama Zhao and Mama Rong were not idle, they made two rouges in just one month, one is purple and the other is red; Purple is suitable for daily use, and bright red is suitable for wedding occasions.

Mingyi has tried it personally, and the effect is good, and it fits the skin very well with the essence and cream, and there will be no powder jamming.

With the two of them made, Mingyi made four more and sent them to the shop together; It was handed over to the shopkeeper Xi and the subordinates in the shop to make a large number of them.

The shelf life of rouge is longer than that of eating, as long as it is stored properly, a large number of production is not afraid of resurgence damage.

In two months, the people in the shop have almost cultivated, and the rouge gouache and cream, essence milk, and the cleansing oil developed by Mingyi in his free time are mass-produced; Shopkeeper Xi borrowed the hand of Zhou Ting's shopkeeper, asked Mingyi to buy the courtyard next to the shop, used it as a workshop for making rouge gouache, and merged it into the shop, added two doors next to it, and built a wall.

The main entrance remains the main entrance, unchanged.
