Metropolitan Water Superintendent Chef Section 46

As soon as the director came back, he put the information on the house type of several nearby households that were eager to sell on the table, and actively introduced:

"These are the drawings of the houses near the Metropolitan Water Supervisor, you see. Among them, three are private houses, and two are facing the street, the front can be used as a shop, and the back can be used as a person without delay, whether it is to live by yourself or rent out, it is a very good choice.

Among them, this family decided to return to their roots and return to their hometown for development because their parents were old. You see their house is close to the water superintendent......"

While introducing the situation with his mouth, the principal also pointed and scratched on the map that Zheng Wan picked up, so that Zheng Wan could have an impression of the specific location of the house.

He can see Zheng Wan's needs clearly, it is best to be close to the capital water prison, it seems that the lady should work near the capital water prison, otherwise there will be no such demand.

You should know that with the location close to the imperial city and the official palace, the price of the house is even more.

If it weren't for Zheng Wan's special place of work, he really couldn't figure out what other reason he chose here, the price was not a wise choice for ordinary people.

Just when Zheng Wan felt that he was about to hear that he was dizzy, he finally heard his ideal house.

Together with the capital water supervisor, it is located in Buzheng Fang, which takes about half an hour to walk, and the price is still within the range she can accept.

It is really the imperial city separated by a wall, and the price is a factor she must consider, but this kind of security is also a little more secure.

In addition, if you want to make something small to sell in the future, you don't have to worry about what smell will disturb other people.

The person in charge saw the satisfaction in Zheng Wan's eyes, and immediately took the initiative:

"Why don't you take the lady to see it on the spot? In that way, the lady can understand the situation of the house better. ”

"Yes."

As soon as Zheng Wan agreed, a joyful smile immediately appeared on the face of the principal, and he said with a smile: "Lady, please!" ”

Then he used his three-inch incorruptible tongue to praise the house they were about to go to see from heaven to earth, which was simply prepared for Zheng Wan's appearance.

Zheng Wan just felt that the main person's mouth did not have a word of truth at first, but when she saw the specific situation of the house, she realized that this was the truth or not? But what is dead can be said to be alive.

Seeing Zheng Wan's expression, the person in charge immediately explained:

"You see, if you dare to bring you here, I'm not afraid that you think this house is bad. You see, when this yard was built, it was made of the finest pine. Although it looks a little cold now, as long as you find a few people to clean it, it is no different from a new house. And this courtyard, the corridor, ......"

Zheng Wan covered her mouth and nose and raised her eyes to look at the whole yard, the original shape of the yard was good, but unfortunately it was in disrepair, and she probably had to repair it if she wanted to live in, and it must have cost a lot of money.

The two of them talked and observed, and gradually walked to the backyard, where there were still a lot of peony flowers, adding a touch of color to the gray courtyard at this moment.

The person in charge immediately explained excitedly: "The original residence here was also the residence of an official, but later when he took up a foreign post, he completely took root in the field and left this house." This is also recently heard that the owner's family died, so I asked a distant relative to take the title deed back and buy it, and it is estimated that it will not come back in the future. ”

"After all these years, you haven't sent someone to take care of your own yard?"

"Where can we understand the meaning of these officials, so Zheng Niangzi, you don't have to worry about anything else, all the house deeds, title deeds and certificates are complete with us, and there will definitely be no problems after you buy them."

As soon as he heard this, Zheng Wan immediately showed a pity expression on his face, pressed his hand against an unstable guardrail, and shook it slightly, and the guardrail almost fell directly into the canal below.

The guardrail is in disrepair in the rain all year round and is extremely fragile, and there is an immediate "creaking" sound under Zheng Wan's hands.

She pretended to be panicked and withdrew her hand, sighing, "It is estimated that the money for this renovation will cost most of the purchase price, right?" And the price of the house is not cheap......"

When he heard the sound of the guardrail, he couldn't help but close his eyes, as if he wanted to forget this scene.

At the same time, he also saw Zheng Wan's hesitation, and explained a little embarrassedly:

"Zheng Niangzi, the location of this courtyard is really good, and the price is also set by the owner's family, we really can't make up our minds."

"Then you can ask the host's house again, and if they are willing to make it cheaper, they will make a move. If not, please take me to a few more houses. ”

"Okay."

The principal gritted his teeth and agreed to this request, but this courtyard had been in the hands of their tooth shop for too long, and just by seeing the appearance of this place, many people retreated, and the money for the renovation of the house must be indispensable.

Therefore, it is rare to meet someone like Zheng Wan who is still willing to take the next step, and the opportunity is really rare.

Otherwise, he was really worried that this courtyard would be smashed into his own hands, how would they still be in Luoyang City in the future?

After the two left the courtyard, they quickly separated.

Zheng Wan thought about the ingredients and dishes that were still missing in her residence, and bought them all back, and now she is a person who is not short of money.

Passing by the medical hall where he had been treated for falling into the water and falling injuries, he immediately walked in with the things in his hand.

The medicine boy in the medical hall was also familiar with Zheng Wan, and immediately shouted familiarly:

"Is Mrs. Zheng here to pick up medicine today? Today is not the agreed day, and the lady is estimated to have to wait for a while. ”

"No, I'm here to pay off the bill today. I wonder how much money is still owed in the ledger? I paid it all back at once! ”

Having money is full of momentum, and Zheng Wan rarely spent a while in the medical hall.

As soon as the medicine boy heard this, his face was immediately filled with a smile of joy, and his tone became better, and he anxiously took out the account book of their medical hall from the cabinet, looking for Zheng Wan's name and looking at it page by page.

In the end, it fell on the word Zheng Wan, and said happily: "These days, I have spent a total of 10 taels and 53 yuan in the medical hall for consultation fees and medicine, and I have repaid 2 taels and 100 yuan per month during the Niu Yu Division, and I still owe 7 taels and 807 yuan, even if the lady is 7 taels and 800 yuan." ”

Zheng Wan immediately took out an ingot of ten taels of silver from his hand and pressed it on the counter.

The moment he saw the silver, the medicine boy's face showed a surprised expression, and he only felt that Zheng Wan had paid everything he had said.

It is customary to hold the silver in your hand and test the hardness with your mouth, and it is actually true.

He immediately put the ingot into the box, took out two taels of 53 coins and put them on the counter, and said happily:

"This is the silver money returned to the lady, a total of two taels and 53 yuan, you have taken it."

After this matter was resolved, Zheng Wan only felt that a stone in his heart had landed, and asked curiously:

"The doctor is available today? Do you want to see if your body is well? I felt that my body was already very good, and I didn't want to drink those bitter pills anymore. ”

"The master is inside, and a certain person calls for the lady."

After that, under the doctor's repeated diagnosis, it was confirmed that Zheng Wan's body really had no problems, and there was no need to continue to drink medicine in the future, and it was impossible for Niu Xinlu to catch Zheng Wan when he didn't want to drink medicine.

After being diagnosed and recovering, Zheng Wan excitedly bought some messy-looking medicinal herbs at the hospital.

When he heard that Zheng Wan was going to use it to make medicinal food, the medicine boy didn't ask anything in an instant, and the medicinal diet was also a prescription, so you can't ask easily, otherwise you are offending others.

In fact, Zheng Wan was going to take it back to make lo-mei, and she really missed it very much if she didn't eat it for a long time.

However, before her lo-mei plan was implemented, Cui Zhiyun's work was ready to start, so she needed to go to Qujiang Pond, the venue where the banquet was held, one day in advance, to start preparations.

She didn't expect Cui Zhiyun's speed to be so fast, not to mention Zheng Wan herself, even Yun Wu, who had followed Cui Zhiyun for so many years, was a little stunned.

He looked at Zheng Wan's surprised expression and emphasized again:

"Our Langjun invited the five surnames and other nobles to this banquet. Therefore, I hope that when the lady cooks the red crayfish, it is best to show the best state of the red crayfish, and if it can look pleasing to the eye, it is the best.

And Lang Jun also mentioned the lady, the people are so fragrant, and the lady can work hard in this direction. After lunch today, there will be an ox cart waiting for the lady outside the back door, and you will be joined by the same five people who made crayfish with you. ”

"I understand, thank you Lang Jun for telling me."

After Yun Wu consciously brought all Cui Zhiyun's words, he immediately turned around and walked in the direction of the public kitchen, called the five people out with Liu Xingyan, and waited until noon to go together.

Just when Zheng Wan was actively preparing for tomorrow's banquet dishes, the entire Luoyang City was in a ruin because of Cui Zhiyun's rare banquet.

Especially those girls who have admired Cui Zhiyun's identity and talent for a long time, as soon as they heard that Cui Zhiyun invited their brother to the banquet hosted by Cui Zhiyun, they had to go no matter how coquettish they were.

At this time, the residence of Wang Qilang of the Taiyuan Wang family was staging such a farce.

"Seventh brother, I know that the eldest man of the Cui family must have sent you a post, and I have asked the concierge. So, when you feast tomorrow, bring your sister with you. ”

Wang Yan has been fond of Cui Zhiyun for a long time, and finally has an opportunity to be bright and bright, she doesn't want to miss it, even if it seems that she has lost the reserve that a Taiyuan Wang girl should have, she doesn't care about it.

Wang Qilang is also very helpless, looking at the most favored girl in the family, he has no choice.

If he doesn't agree today, it is estimated that at dinner, he will usher in A-Niang's anger.

In order to be a little cleaner, he looked at his sister Wang Yan and emphasized repeatedly:

"The post only wrote that Wang Qilang was invited to the banquet, it is estimated that all the people who went were our group of young men, if you think the banquet is boring, you can't leave early, you have to wait for Brother Qi to come back together. And you can't ...... tomorrow."

"Alright, alright! I know it. ”

Wang Yan covered her ears impatiently, she had been calloused by these words all these years. And her purpose has been achieved, and there is no point in staying any longer.

As for what Brother Qi said that there will be no more girls tomorrow, she feels that Brother Qi still underestimates the popularity of the Cui family, and she dares to guarantee that tomorrow she will definitely see the women among the five surnames at the banquet, especially Fan Yang Lu's family.

Maybe they Taiyuan Wang went to the girl is the least, I don't know why I think of this, Wang Yan still feels that her family is a little at a loss, but when she thinks that if someone in the family competes with her, she thinks that it is nothing to go a few fewer people.

Wang Yan's guess was not wrong, almost every family with the five surnames had a few Lang Jun who could talk to Cui Zhiyun invited, and it was normal to bring one or two sisters.

Especially Fan Yang Lu, who was originally the closest relative to Cui Zhiyun, sent all the girls and Lang Jun out at home.

Even if you can't get married to the Cui family again, in Cui Zhiyun's banquet, what appears must be the best of other families, and if you can have one or two pairs of eyes, it can be regarded as a consolidation of your own strength and in-laws.

Isn't it because of this that the five surnames intermarry with each other and unite with each other in the name of a family that has been maintained for hundreds of years?

Cui Zhiyun understood such an implicit meaning when he received a message from his mother, and thinking of his purpose, he did not refuse his mother's proposal for the first time.

If you follow the habit of all the ladies attending the banquet on weekdays, you must cut new clothes and dress yourself well.

It's a pity that Cui Zhiyun's date is too rushed, almost just posted, and the day of the banquet will arrive in a few days.

The ladies did not have such extra time to prepare, so they had to helplessly pick and choose among their dazzling wardrobes, take out the clothes that they had not had time to wear, and try to show their best appearance on the day of the banquet.

Just when the girls were preparing, Zheng Wan and Zhao Qingyou had already set foot on the other courtyard set by Cui Zhiyun on the side of Qujiang Pond.

Originally, the Qujiangchi Annexate was an annex of the imperial family, and only they could come here to enjoy the beautiful scenery, but after the change of dynasty, it became a place where you could book a banquet as long as you had money and power.

From June to September every year, the lotus flowers in the Qujiang Pond are in full bloom, and at that time, even if the other courtyard is rich, it will not be certain.

For example, in the early days of April, "the little lotus is only showing sharp corners," and some are even hidden in the water, the scenery is good, but it is still a lot less than June.

Therefore, Cui Zhiyun must have made up his mind, and it didn't take much time at all.

The guard, who was in charge of escorting Zheng Wan and several people, immediately said after sending them to the back door of the courtyard:

"Zheng Niangzi can go in, and someone inside will take Zheng Niangzi to the back kitchen to start preparing for tomorrow's banquet."

"Thank you, Lang-kun."

After speaking, Zheng Wan jumped down from the ox cart in a dashing manner, if you don't talk about the experience, this ox cart is still a little better than walking.

Qujiang Pond can be said to be located in the southeast and northwest opposite positions with the capital water supervisor, if you walk directly, it is estimated that you will waste your legs.

Several other people were also looking back and forth at the beauty of the Qujiangchi Courtyard, and they were startled when they saw Zheng Wan suddenly jumping out of the car.

After that, he stepped out of the stool that the guards had put down.

The man in charge of guarding at the back door opened the door as soon as he saw the guard, and out of it came a woman, dressed elegantly and exquisitely, not much worse than a girl from a rich family.

Seeing a few people appear, he habitually saluted and shouted: "Zheng Niangzi is here, the slave is Cui Langjun's mother, you can call the slave Yuan's mother, and be responsible for the overall management of tomorrow's banquet and drink." A few of them are in charge of the back kitchen, and they are also managed by the old slaves, but a few of them are chefs specially invited by Lang Jun, and their identities are another matter.

It's all for Lang Jun, so everyone can do their best. It's not early, so the slave won't talk nonsense, please follow the old slave. ”
