Chapter 27 Women and Heroes 27

Amazed, incredulous, the butler's eyes were glued to the mirror almost obsessively.

From the glass carvings at the four corners of the mirror to the light of the mirror, I looked at them one by one, and admired them while looking at them.

This glass mirror is really perfect, the perfect housekeeper didn't dare to look at it for too long, and when he came back to his senses, he hurriedly beckoned people and asked people to carry the gifts in.

Not only that, but the housekeeper called more than a dozen people in a row, raising his voice to reprimand everyone while asking people to raise the mirror.

"You all be careful with me, be neat with your hands and feet, if this baby hits a corner, your whole family's life will not be enough."

When the mirror was lifted into the courtyard, it caused a sensation, and everyone who saw the huge glass mirror couldn't help but come forward to watch.

The glass mirror over there was carried away, and the housekeeper here said to Zhao Yanhuan very enthusiastically: "Guests go inside, please go to the main courtyard." ”

This main courtyard is the place where Dong Guan eats with everyone when he holds his birthday ceremony.

The housekeeper who went to the main courtyard liked the mirror sent by Zhao Yanhuan very much, and determined that Zhao Yanhuan was qualified to have close contact with Dong Guan.

The people next to him who heard this all had envious looks on their faces, Zhao Yanhuan was the first person to get the qualification to enter the main courtyard today.

Many people who have come know that being able to get the qualification to enter the main courtyard for a banquet means that they will definitely be promoted by Dong Guan this year, and their future is stable.

However, although everyone is envious, they are also convinced, after all, such an expensive glass mirror, even if they spend all their possessions, it is difficult to buy, so they can only look at it dryly.

Here, Zhao Yanhuan took Luan Hu and Luan Xiong, who acted as guards, into the banquet, and the rest of the people waited outside the mansion.

Under the guidance of the servant sent by the housekeeper, the three of them went to the main courtyard and sat down.

But on the other side, the sensation caused by the huge mirror brought by Zhao Yanhuan has not stopped, and in the end, even Dong Guan was shocked.

At that time, Dong Guan was entertaining a few important guests, and he saw the housekeeper come over in person, carefully commanding people, and carrying a huge glass mirror the size of half a wall.

As soon as this mirror appeared, Dong Guan and the people around him were attracted to attention, Dong Guan is a lover of money and treasures, and he wanted to come close to appreciate this glass mirror as soon as he saw it.

A middle-aged man dressed as a scribe next to him said with a look of amazement and envy: "Who gave you this gift?" It's so beautiful and expensive, I wonder if we can be blessed to watch it and feast our eyes? ”

Dong Guanzheng's heart was itching, and when he heard this, he immediately said: "Since you are interested, let's go and have a look together." ”

After speaking, Dong Guan beckoned the person who carried the mirror to stop, and he took the person out of the door and went straight to the mirror.

When I got closer, I didn't see the mirror yet, but I was shocked by the scene where the mirror could reflect everyone.

A white-bearded old man beside Dong Guan twisted his beard and said with envy: "It's the first time in my life that the old man has seen such a huge mirror, which can clearly illuminate the old man's whole body. ”

Dong Guan also nodded and said, "This is also the first time I have seen what my whole body looks like. ”

A group of people looked up and down around the mirror, and watched it with great interest for a long time, Dong Guancai reluctantly asked people to send the mirror to his room, and he wanted to continue to enjoy it at night.

Because of this mirror, Dong Guanduo asked the housekeeper: "Who gave this glass mirror?" ”

The person who gave the gift, the housekeeper had already registered, and Zhao Yanhuan's gift was so different, the housekeeper was even more impressed.

Therefore, when Dong Guan asked, the housekeeper did not hesitate, and immediately said: "The gift is a rich businessman from Niumo County, named Zhao Yanhuan, by the way, this Zhao Yanhuan is still a woman." ”

"It's a woman."

Dong Guan twisted his beard: "Since she is a woman, she must not be seeking an official, she probably wants to be an imperial businessman or something, so it is easier to do it than a man." ”

Although the restraint of women in this era is not as much and perverted as later, the status of women is still inferior to that of men after all.

Zhao Yanhuan can be a village head, because it is not important, but no one agrees if she wants to be a county magistrate, because this is a man's official.

It's like now, he also gave Dong Guan a gift, and Zhao Yanhuan gave it away so much with Dong Guan, but what Dong Guan thought of was just to let Zhao Yanhuan be an imperial businessman.

Fortunately, Zhao Yanhuan didn't plan to let Dong Guan get her any official position now, she just wanted to rely on Dong Guan's big backer, and by the way, she stored her silver in Dong Guan's self-service bank.

There is still an endless stream of gift-givers, but the banquet in the main courtyard has already begun.

The banquet of Dong Guan's birthday ceremony was very luxurious, and the first dish that came up was a duck tongue.

In this era, duck tongue is not something that can be eaten casually, because no one has bought duck separately.

There are a total of eighteen tables in this main courtyard, and each table has a plate of duck tongue, and together, just one birthday gift kills a thousand ducks.

Luan Leopard and Luan Bear were distressed to see it, how many ducks had to be wasted.

In addition to ducks, there are also palms in the palm, a table and a plate of palms, and I don't know how many chickens will be killed to side dishes.

When these two dishes came up, those who were good at food began to taste them, of course, they were all praises, and no one dared to talk nonsense about the fun.

However, these two dishes are indeed very delicious, but Zhao Yanhuan casually ate two bites and stopped eating.

The absolute luxury dish of duck tongue in the palm of the hand is nothing to Zhao Yanhuan at all, and Zhao Yanhuan doesn't like to eat chicken and duck very much.

It's the abalone, sea cucumber, prawns and the like that came up later, Zhao Yanhuan doesn't feel anything, she is not interested in seafood.

As for bird's nests, they are all superimposed layer by layer after the swiftlet's sublingual gum is spit out and hardened.

In other words, a whole bird's nest is made of swallow saliva, and Zhao Yanhuan can't eat such a thing as bird's nest every time he thinks of it.

When it came to the two brothers Luan Hu and Luan Xiong, they ate very happily, because there were no people at Zhao Yanhuan's table, and the people who came here not only wanted to climb Dong Guan's relationship, but also to broaden their contacts.

And Zhao Yanhuan is a woman, they feel that they are big men and take the official road, and Zhao Yanhuan, no matter how powerful this woman is, is a businessman, and they are not of the same class, so these people are not willing to deal with Zhao Yanhuan.

was underestimated, Zhao Yanhuan didn't care, and simply let Luan Hu and Luan Xiong sit down and eat together.

Zhao Yanhuan couldn't look down on it, Luan Hu and Luan Xiong could see it, Zhao Yanhuan let them eat, and the two of them simply sat down and ate.

In the end, half of the dishes on the table went into the mouths of Luan Hu and Luan Xiong.

After the feast, according to common sense, everyone will leave, and then Dong Guan will summon those who give gifts to his heart.

When the time comes, these people will give Dong Guan a gift again, and this time the gift will be the money they used to buy officials.

But this time it may be that Zhao Yanhuan's gift is too kind, as soon as the banquet is over, the housekeeper comes over and says to Zhao Yanhuan: "Miss Zhao, the master is invited." ”
