Jinghua little cook

Wedding invitations were flying all over the place, and the day of Wen Wan's wedding came in a blink of an eye.

The seats in the mansion are arranged according to rank and familiarity, and there are often hundreds of tables. The scene is much more lively than when the old lady celebrates her birthday.

Firstly, it was because Pei Yan was now very popular and had great reputation, and secondly, because the hero of coastal defense got married, the court sent three sons to attend the banquet on behalf of the emperor, which naturally caused quite a stir.

I could hear the excitement among the guests, and the bridesmaids inside were so busy that they almost lost their minds.

"Sometimes the makeup is red, and then the beauty is beautiful. How many sets of clothes do I need to change?" Wu Youran sat back on the chair.

She felt that getting married seemed to be more difficult than fighting.

Bai Fengzhi twisted the carved carnelian hairpin on the table and looked at it: "This is the only time in my life that I will be busy, why don't I take care of it well?"

After that, put the hairpin on the bride's head.

Bai Fengzhi looked around, feeling happy as if she was getting married.

"I should have known this, I should have asked Mr. Pei for a few more red envelopes just now." Wu Youran suddenly stood up from his seat and helped Wen Wan to draw the bow from left to right: "Yes, it will be strong in one go, then it will weaken, and then it will be exhausted." !”

Wen Wan murmured: "There is no need to worry about anything. The guests are busy eating and drinking. It is rare that they have time to admire the newcomers. I guess they are all gathered around your highnesses at this time."

"That's wrong. We don't put on makeup just to show them. After all, we make ourselves happy when we look in the mirror." Bai Fengzhi said with a smile, "Also--it's just for your husband to see."

When Wen Wan heard this, she looked shy and her cheeks were a little redder than the peach plums of Sanchun.

Holding her hot cheek with her slender hand, she said gently: "He will be drunk by then. What are you looking at?"

Wu Youran and Bai Fengzhi looked at each other and smiled: "Don't worry, I can't get your beloved Mr. Pei drunk. For the sake of your spring night, Ah Ling changed the wine in Mr. Pei's flask with a specially blended one, which only tastes like wine. Son, but not intoxicating."

She raised her eyes gently.

"Ms. Lu is interested."

Bai Fengzhi powdered the bride's face and said, "There is still a backup plan. If someone proposes a toast, my second brother and third brother will stop you. The guardians on the left and right are here. No one can ruin your good deeds tonight."

"Princess, please stop talking." Wen Wan lowered her head, wishing she could plug her ears.

The sound of gongs and drums has not died down.

On the other side, Lu Xiling and Dou Ya had already prepared the dishes for the wedding banquet. Just to get some peace and quiet, they stayed in the kitchen and refused to go out.

You can never go hungry in the kitchen with the comfort of Bean Sprouts.

Although the fish and shrimps that were served were already in a state of disrepair, this was to be expected.

Douya thought: No matter how beautiful the bride is, she belongs to someone else, and what is eaten in her stomach is the real thing.

What's more, this is a dish customized by Ah Ling himself.

"Wow, this soup is really delicious."

All the maids and ladies in the kitchen went to the front hall to help, and there were only a few people in the kitchen. Lu Xiling was afraid of starving his children, so he made a pot of wontons.

Firstly, if a chef comes over, you can satisfy your cravings. Secondly, the watery soup is easy to digest and will not make your face full of fat.

Dou Ya picked up the wontons and smiled: "It looks like a gold ingot, so pretty."

Most of the dumplings and wontons are in the shape of gold ingots, which is inseparable from the ancient working people's desire to get rich.

But this is not the only thing that can be said about wontons.

Wonton, Chaos, folk also say that wonton is to break chaos and open up the world.

Douya nodded repeatedly as he listened.

Lu Xiling smiled slightly and silently added another bowl of soup to the child.

Wonton soup is very simple, using only shrimp skin and sea vegetables, but who says that the most delicious food can’t use the simplest ingredients?
Dou Ya drank so much that he was sweating all over. The guests outside came to greet each other and congratulated each other. The sounds of joy spread along the eaves.

Douya looked at her growing belly and didn't ask Lu Xiling to give her another bowl.

Time passed quickly, Wen Wan's marriage was completed, and Lu Xiling's marriage was not far away.

Lu Zisheng was sitting in the main room, with his left hand on his lap and his right hand holding the handle of the sword at his waist. This was his habit as a military commander.It was suddenly warm but then cold, and even though there was a curtain to block the wind, the room was not warm. Among the several rooms, only Lu Xiling's boudoir had a floor dragon. There were gender differences, so Lu Xiling couldn't invite the two elders to sit in there.

Lu Xiling handed Lu Zisheng a handful of soup dumplings and glanced at his second uncle who was also sitting on the main seat.

The flesh on Liansheng's face was piled in the fur collar, and his brows and eyes were full of joy.

"The six rites are easy to say, but good days don't come often. The sixth day of March is an auspicious day, so let's make it a rule."

There was a muffled hum in my ear.

Lian Sheng opened his eyes and glanced sideways at the general beside him.

If it were back then, Lian Sheng might have been a little more wary of the Lu family, but now things have changed. One of them is a courtier and the other is an imperial merchant. They are considered equals. Why should he retreat?

Reckless.

Lu Zisheng said: "The etiquette cannot be abolished, and the six etiquettes cannot be complicated or trivial. Since Mr. Lien wants a good life, in my opinion, it should be the sixth day of June, which is an auspicious day."

"June?!" Lian Sheng could hardly sit still, "There are more than four months left? Since it's not Mr. Lu's own marriage, you're not in a hurry?"

"How about six months? If His Highness treats He Zhen sincerely, why not wait for only four months?"

"For sincerity, then why not if I let the children get married as soon as possible, and the birds will return to their nests? Why is Mr. Lu so pedantic?

Lu Zisheng raised his eyebrows coldly and said, "Am I pedantic? I think your calculations are not working. You know very well what kind of business you are negotiating with the court, and what kind of business you want to do with He Zhen."

"Lu Zisheng!" Lian Sheng stood up, "Don't slander anyone here! Let alone you today, even the aunt in charge of your family has to give way to me!"

The eldest daughter in charge of the Lu family is Lu Xiling's cousin.

The two of them looked at each other in a tense situation. Those who knew it were discussing marriage, and those who didn't know it thought they were negotiating between the two countries.

"Uncle, uncle." Lu Xiling stood up and said, "You two calm down, isn't it just a day? When the time comes, the father-in-law of Qin Tianjian will come to predict the situation, and the final decision will be made by the saint, so why should we ask for trouble on our own?"

"It's too early to discuss it now. The Taishan sacrifice is a big deal, and the marriage should wait until the sacrifice."

The voice just fell.

Both fell silent.

After a while, Lu Xiling waved to the kitchen to get busy, and the aroma wafted out, which relieved the room's awkwardness.

Today Lu Xiling was eating and drinking with the two elders, and all the dishes were prepared by Liang Chen.

There is a fish soup and a dish of cabbage. The soup of the cabbage is old hen soup. The whole basin is brought up with wax on the bottom. The basin is always sizzling, and the eater is warm all over.

Lian Sheng smiled brightly and said: "When you get married, Sanniang and Wu Niang will also come. They have wanted to come to the capital to visit since they were young, but they have no chance."

Lu Xiling patted his chest and said, "Feel free to come, and then I, the sister, will take them to have a good time."

"Hmph, I'm afraid someone wants their children to meet the new rich."

The examination is held once every three years, but nowadays there is a shortage of talented people in the Zhou Dynasty, so the imperial court has decreed that it should be held every year in the past two years.

Scholars were happy because there were less tolls and they could stay in the capital all year round. Not only was it convenient to prepare for the exams in the second year, but there were also plenty of opportunities to hand in papers.

Living in the same inn, there is no telling whose turn it will be to rise to the top next.

Therefore, at this time, apart from the scholars seeking employment, the busiest people were the single young women.

Liansheng's face turned red, and when he was about to reply, he was stuffed with a spoonful of chicken soup, and then he gave up.

After the table was dismissed, Lian Sheng was encouraged to get on the carriage by Lu Zisheng, Yonghe's 13th year Jinshi. After the carriage had gone away, Lu Zisheng took out a few slightly yellowed papers from his sleeves.

It is a bank note.

"This is?" Lu Xiling was confused.

"This is private money given to you by your cousin and I. It is not included in the dowry." (End of Chapter)
