After learning that the birthday banquet would have a total of one hundred and eight tables, it was only carved on the main ten tables of the birthday banquet, and Ling Xiaorou alone carved it to the point of hand cramps, and the most important barbecue could not be thrown to Wan Niang and sister-in-law.

In the end, I can only let people go and send a message to Ling Cheng and Ling Xiaomin, and let them also come into the house to help.

Don't look at them have never carved carved and placed plates, but they all have good skills in carving bamboo tubes, as long as Ling Xiaorou explains clearly, it is not difficult to carve some simple flowers.

Before Ling Cheng and Ling Xiaomin were invited into the mansion, they only heard from the servant who answered them that the mansion was too busy and asked them to help.

Ling Cheng and Ling Xiaomin were still strange, they weren't cooks, what could they do to help? Wouldn't it be who did anything to Ling Xiaorou, afraid that her deeds would be exposed, and she wanted to kill people?

As a result, after arriving in the mansion, I saw the wealth and atmosphere of Ningyuan Wangfu, and felt that they had nothing to help, so I was not worried, and I was suspicious that I would be harmed unknowingly.

Fortunately, it was all on the road where people came and went, because the birthday banquet was approaching, there were many guests in the mansion who came to congratulate the birthday, and the people in the mansion were also busy, and the entire Ningyuan Royal Mansion was a busy scene, until I saw Ling Xiaorou, I had never seen a remote and uninhabited place.

As soon as Ling Xiaomin saw Ling Xiaorou, she pounced on her, pulled Ling Xiaorou's arm up and down to look carefully, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Big girl, it's good that you're still talking." ”

Ling Xiaorou glared at her, and Ling Cheng saw that Xi Qiu, who brought them in next to him, twitched in his face, and said, "Talking nonsense, this mansion is so big, and it's not that you can't afford to buy meat, is it possible that you can still take the big girl to make up for the food?" ”

This time, no matter how calm Xi Qiu was, he couldn't help but speak out, and said faintly: "That, we don't eat human flesh in our house." ”

Ling Cheng and Ling Xiaomin were not embarrassed, they could only laugh dryly.

Ling Xiaorou smiled at Xi Qiu, and picked up a freshly made fruit bowl from the table next to her, "Thank you, Sister Xi Qiu, this is the fruit plate I just carved by hand, and please Sister Xi Qiu not dislike it." ”

Seeing that the flowers carved from apples and pears on the above are delicate and beautiful, and there are also a few butterflies carved from carrots next to them, the butterflies that are about to fly are lifelike, and a plate of fruit flowers is decorated more vividly.

Xi Qiu was reluctant to put it down with the fruit plate, "Slave and maid thank Miss Biao for your reward, such a beautiful fruit, where can I provoke it, take it back and let the sisters also take a look, the slave and maid have retired." ”

After speaking, he left happily with the fruit plate, leaving Ling Cheng and Ling Xiaomin with puzzled faces.

After a while, Ling Xiaomin asked puzzledly, "Big girl, why does she call you Miss Cousin?" ”

Ling Xiaorou told the brothers and sisters about Mrs. Qu's recognition of her righteous daughter, and Ling Xiaomin was shocked for a long time after hearing this, "Big girl, then don't you want to call Mrs. Qu a brother and sister in the future?" ”

Ling Cheng frowned and said, "Big girl, although the Qu family does not dislike your low background and recognizes you as a righteous daughter, you must have a number in your heart, and you can't be underestimated." ”

Ling Xiaorou's original intention of admitting Mrs. Qu as her stepmother was to keep a safe distance from Qu Hongan, and she never thought about taking advantage of the Qu family's strength.

Knowing that Ling Cheng was doing it for his own good, he nodded and said, "Big brother, don't worry, the eldest girl is not a person who doesn't know the importance of things." ”

Ling Cheng said 'um', "Listen to me, don't tell anyone about this first, even your aunt and your sister-in-law, they are not strict, and they will cause trouble for you outside." ”

Ling Xiaorou was originally still entangled in whether to tell the Li family and the Fang family about this, the Li family is not bad, but it is a little out of tune, if she knows that she recognized Mrs. Qu as her stepmother, maybe she will have to come to the close, after all, they are from different families, it is better not to get too close to each other, so as not to be looked down upon.

And the Fang family, not to mention how she is, it is her maiden family, maybe she will use this relationship to do nonsense outside, and then she wants to clear the relationship, and others will still pull the things done by the Fang family into the Ling family.

Since Ling Cheng didn't say anything, she was also happy to be quiet, and she responded again and again.

also said that this birthday banquet was held for Mrs. Qu's own sister, the mother of King Ning Yuan, and Ling Cheng repeatedly reminded Ling Xiaorou not to leak her mouth when she went back.

Ningyuan Palace, that is a high ground, how can ordinary people climb it?

Maybe people didn't say that she, Mrs. Qu's righteous daughter, was from a low background, but she still didn't know how to dislike it in her bones, so it was better not to be bored.

Ling Xiaorou asked them to come over and help with the carving, Ling Cheng and Ling Xiaomin responded with a mouthful, they carved bamboo, what can't be carved in some melons and vegetables?

Ling Xiaorou only demonstrated a few times, and the two of them carved decently, and the beautiful little flowers quickly took shape in their hands.

Compared with the rules carved by Ling Cheng, how Ling Xiaorou taught him how to carve, Ling Xiaomin carved a lot of unique patterns, which made Ling Xiaorou happy, with the help of the two of them, he was not afraid that the birthday banquet would not be busy.

Originally, they thought that Ling Xiaorou was lying about carving, but after seeing Ling Cheng carving a piece of thick and fresh bamboo into a flower blossom rich cup and a pine crane longevity cup, everyone believed that Ling Xiaorou's carving skills were completely carved from bamboo.

Besides, what if you don't believe it? The little girl is already the daughter of the old princess's nephew, and she doesn't dare to talk to Ling Xiaorou like before.

Sure enough, the young and capable little girl is rarer than these men, saying that if she is recognized by a nobleman, she will recognize her as a goddaughter, but they don't have to think about such a good thing in this life, except for reincarnation.

Today, I just invited Ling Cheng and Ling Xiaomin to come over and try to carve a few flowers, since they are all carved well, there is nothing to be busy with next, as long as I come over tomorrow to confirm the meat to be used at the birthday banquet, marinate the meat in advance, and then prepare all the carving materials that should be prepared, there will be nothing to do with Ling Xiaorou.

Under the ardent gaze of the chefs of the palace, Ling Xiaorou took Ling Cheng and Ling Xiaomin out of the mansion in a dashing manner, anyway, the rest of the things are not in her hands, she is too lazy to point fingers and annoyance, and she has to continue to look at her shop when she goes back.

Although it is said that she doesn't want to borrow the momentum of Ningyuan Palace, it is always different to have a backer and not a backer, and she is not afraid that Qu Hongan will have that kind of mind about her again, after opening a shop in the future, she will often take some delicious things to Ningyuan Palace, what is really going on with her shop, Ningyuan Palace, will Ningyuan Palace?

For her, the big thing may be just a matter of one sentence in the eyes of Ningyuan Palace, I believe that the old princess must be very willing to give her sister that face and take care of her, the righteous daughter of the Qu family.

Go back to the inn first and report safety to the Li family and the Fang family.

After that, the family continued to look for shops while shopping in Jicheng, compared to the first day, there was still a little timid mood, today is not only the weather, but even the mood is bright.

Ling Xiaorou is more concerned about finding a shop, but she thought that she could find a better shop if she got a reward at this birthday banquet, but now that she has recognized Mrs. Qu as her stepmother, she is Miss Cousin of Ningyuan Palace, even if she takes care of the birthday banquet well, it will not be a gold or silver thing to give a reward at that time.

Most likely, the old princess would have given her a more expensive gift, but it would not have been sold anyway.

Weighing the gold and silver in his hand, alas, I don't know if the money to buy the shop can be taken on credit first?

Jicheng is wide and densely populated, and the shops on the street are next to each other, although there are also many shops to sell, but after inquiry, either the location is good but the price is too high, or the price is cheap but the location is very partial.

Even if Ling Xiaorou thinks that her barbecue shop can make diners flock to it no matter where it opens, she has to consider many problems, most of those remote shops are open in alleys, and when the barbecue shop opens, it will be smoky all day long, so you have to pay attention, right?

You can't make other people's homes follow the smoke and fire, which still makes people live a good life? After a long time, the contradictions in the neighborhood must not accumulate more and more?

In the end, Ling Xiaorou could only focus on those places facing the street, where there were no residents next to them, or where they were also restaurants.

But the price of such a shop is really not ordinarily high, Ling Xiaorou is thoughtful, but the gold and silver in her hand are really not powerful, too big shops can't afford it, and too small shops can't be opened when they buy it, which makes it difficult for Ling Xiaorou.

Well, after knowing that the housing prices in Jicheng were so high that she couldn't afford them, Ling Xiaorou's sunny mood just now turned cloudy again.

Whenever Li Shi heard that buying a shop would cost thousands or even tens of thousands of silver, she would open her mouth in surprise and let out an exclamation, "God, this shop is gold-edged?" Why is it expensive? ”

Ling Xiaorou smiled bitterly, she also wanted to ask, the best shop in Gao County was only a thousand taels, but it had increased more than ten times in Jicheng, it really didn't work, they should go back to Zhu Village, and they were not afraid of not making money by opening a shop in Gao County first.

After strolling around until the evening, they ate a delicious meat bun outside, and then a few people went back to the inn listlessly.

Li Shi took Ling Xiaorou's hand and didn't let go, his mouth opened and closed, and he closed it, looking at the hesitant look, Ling Xiaorou was anxious for her, "Uncle, if you have anything to say, just say it, we are not outsiders." ”

Li Shi made a bitter face, "Big girl, Uncle Niang can see it, do you really want to open a shop here in Jicheng, but the money in your hand is not enough?" ”

Ling Xiaorou sighed, "No, I didn't expect the shop here in Jicheng to be so expensive, I thought less about it before, and now it seems that I can only go back to Gao County to open a shop." ”

Li gritted his teeth, as if he was competing with someone, and said after a while: "Otherwise, Uncle Niang still has some silver here, all of which were earned from selling haggis noodles a few days ago, Uncle Niang will borrow you first, and then return Uncle Niang when you earn the silver." ”

Unexpectedly, the Li family actually proposed this kind of help, Ling Xiaorou was a little surprised, and her eyes quickly swept over the faces of several people in the room.

Ling Cheng didn't say a word, but his expression looked approving.

Ling Xiaomin nodded vigorously, for fear that Ling Xiaorou would feel embarrassed.

And Fang's ...... At first, he was stunned, looked at Li with incredible eyes, and then the muscles on his face jumped and jumped, obviously not expecting that the stingy mother-in-law would suddenly become generous.
