Everyone ate lively for a while, and no one mentioned the matter of Yang Xiankang's external transfer, but just talked about the topic of cooking.

Soon, the owner of Mingyue Building, Mao Hongbin's brother Mao Hongmao, came back with a large cart of ingredients.

As soon as he entered the backyard, he naturally heard the guys say that his brother was with many people in the box, including the queen mother.

I hurried over, and of course I didn't forget to bring some new wine.

Before, he had never seen Yang Xianrong, even if his brother was familiar with her, he would have to kowtow.

Therefore, as soon as he entered the door, he immediately fell to his knees.

It just so happened that Liu Yao got up and was going to the stove to pick up the roasted mutton handed over by Liu Sheng, when he was startled by Mao Hongmao's move, and after taking half a step back, his hand was on his waist.

"Ouch, my brother!" Mao Hongbin laughed, "What is this for?" It's not the New Year yet! ”

"Go, go, you go, isn't this the first time I've seen the queen." Mao Hongmao pulled away his brother, looked through the gap in everyone, and saw a delicate girl looking at him with a smile, and couldn't help but praise in his heart: What a good-looking person.

"Greet the Queen!" He shouted again, so bluffing that Mao Hongbin immediately covered his mouth.

"Don't speak, the queen is a micro-service."

"Yes, shopkeeper Mao should not be loud." Yang Xianrong didn't stand up, after all, her identity was the most noble now, but she raised the wine glass in front of her and asked Cui Xi to hand it to him, "I guess you also know, I am an old acquaintance with Master Mao, you are his brother, and naturally I am also familiar with someone, don't be so polite." In the future, we will also eat and drink with you, so don't dislike us. ”

These words are extremely cordial.

Mao Hongmao took the wine glass and drank it all immediately.

He looks completely different from Mao Hongbin, and his chubby appearance shows that he is a shrewd businessman.

Yang Xiankang couldn't help but say: "Uncle Mao, in fact, I especially want to ask, do you and your brother look completely alike?" It's ......"

"Don't worry, the same father and mother, if it's fake." Mao Hongmao replied directly, "People often ask this, but we are really brothers." ”

"It's a brother." Liu Yao smiled and handed Mao Hongmao a glass of wine, "If you look closely, you can find that the eyes of the shopkeeper Mao are in the same shape as Master Mao, and the jawline is also at the same angle, but the shopkeeper Mao is a little fatter, presumably because he opened a restaurant, he eats well." ”

"That's right! He eats much better than I do. Mao Hongbin laughed, "Brother, why have you been buying and buying goods in the past few days, and have you received any big orders?" ”

"You really got it right!" The shopkeeper Mao was no longer restrained, and enthusiastically took Mao Hongbin's shoulder and sat down.

Because of his arrival, the guys brought in a few more dishes, and there was no room on the table.

Yang Xianrong quietly asked Mao Hongbin to call Wu Wei, Qin Chaoge and a few other people in, and it was lively to eat together.

"Isn't it a big cold feast in a few days, many people have ordered some food here for me, and they will be sent to the palace when the day comes." Mao Hongmao likes to talk more than his younger brother, and he is very funny.

"Why?" Yang Xiankang asked curiously: "There is an imperial chef in the palace." ”

"You don't understand that, do you?" Mao Hongmao's waist straightened up, "The Great Cold Banquet was opened by the emperor, and the original intention was that at the end of the year, you should eat some good rewards for everyone." Later, I felt that the imperial chef couldn't make any food, so I asked everyone to send their own dishes to the palace. With good wine and good food, it is natural to have singing and dancing to help the fun, and the emperor let his concubines show their talents and show them in the big cold banquet. ”

"Oh, I know, Concubine Li was also good at white silk dancing at the beginning, so she was favored by the emperor to enter the palace." Mao Hongbin immediately reacted, "Yang Xiaorong, then this time you can eat a lot of delicacies and watch a lot of good-looking beauties dancing with long sleeves." ”

"It's certain to eat good food, but if you are good at dancing with long sleeves, you still need to be accompanied by someone who is good at playing musical instruments." Mao Hongmao arched his hand towards the sheep before saying, "Don't be surprised." On the big cold banquet, the queen mother can also perform talents, Jia Nanfeng is good at hitting the rope after the abolition of the year, and I heard that it is also a beat of excitement, quite a man's style, many people like it. ”

"The third sister doesn't want to perform." Yang Xiankang was the first to jump out against it.

"Just talking." Mao Hongmao coughed lightly twice, but his younger brother Mao Hongbin on the side reacted immediately and coughed lightly.

Yang Xianrong naturally heard the meaning and asked, "So, what can I do?" ”

Mao Hongbin opened his mouth on behalf of his brother and whispered slightly: "The queen has been in the palace for less than a month, and it is necessary to please the emperor." I heard that the emperor likes the sound of shakuhachi, and the queen can also play a song. ”

"I would, but I'm not good at it." Yang Xianrong replied quite honestly.

"Why did the third sister do this?" Yang Xiankang still disagreed.

"Second brother, listen to Uncle Mao." The sheep made a small face.

Cui Xi poured a glass of wine for Yang Xiankang and handed it to him.

Yang Xiankang took it and immediately shut up.

"This shouldn't be said in front of the queen's mother, but Jia Nanfeng is indeed very good at acting, she is not good at hitting the rope herself, but she found fifty strong men, standing in front of the rope half-naked, and hitting her together, the scene is extremely enthusiastic, and it can even make people's blood boil."

"Brother has been there?" Mao Hongbin was a little surprised.

"I can send those dishes into the palace, and this scene can be seen secretly." Mao Hongmao laughed, "Your brother and I are also people who have seen the world. ”

"Oh oh, you're amazing, better than me."

"That is, you are so ungrown, and you still resign and don't do it, it really makes the ancestors of the Mao family jump out and kill you. Fortunately, now you are the commander of the Northern Military Mansion......"

"For the time being, don't say more." Mao Hongbin is still very low-key.

"Therefore, everyone in the harem has to show their talents, and the queen might as well prepare something." Mao Hongmao also suggested very sincerely.

"I really can't do it." Yang Xianrong pouted, "I didn't study very seriously back then......"

"Actually, there is a way." Wu Wei Qin Chaoge, who was sitting on the side, suddenly opened his mouth.

"Oh? What is Qin Wuwei's opinion? In the past few days, Mao Hongbin has become very familiar with Qin Chaoge, because he is the "old man" of the Northern Military Mansion, and he also relies on him a lot in handling various official affairs.

"I heard that there is an old woman in the palace who is good at shakuhachi, and can make learners quickly improve their skills in a short period of time."

"How fast can it be?" Everyone was curious.

"Three or five days will do." Qin Chaoge smiled, "I've only heard about it. If the queen doesn't know how to play shakuhachi, then there is no need to learn it. ”

Mao Hongbin nodded, and was very sure of this statement: "Qin Wuwei can also try this, but there is another way." ”

"And what?" Everyone asked in unison.

"Have you ever heard of an allusion to indiscriminate numbers?" Mao Hongbin laughed.

Yang Xianrong looked at him with a black line on his face, and said very directly: "I knew you didn't have any good ideas." ”
