Chapter 21
The family of three in Qingcui Courtyard talked about what happened in the second room peacefully, and even had a warm dinner.

Geng Wen's first meal back home, of course, wasn't all the light dishes in the big kitchen that could be boiled in water, and even if he searched carefully, he couldn't find a few grains of minced meat.

Instead, I specially bought roasted chicken and marinated meat from restaurants outside, which are regarded as extra meals. On weekdays, if any master in the mansion does not want to eat dishes from the big kitchen, he usually buys good dishes for the person who asks the kitchen to buy them for money, and asks the cook to cook them. Come out, rarely buy cooked food back.

Since there are delicacies, it stands to reason that one should honor the elders, so in the first few extra meals in the big house, whether it is Geng Wen or Ruan's, they will give a copy to Yideyuan and Zhengyuan.

Coincidentally and unfortunately, when we went, we all caught up with the dinner time.

Then there was the embarrassing moment, because whether it was the main courtyard or the Yide courtyard, the food on the table was obviously much richer. Even if they specially paid for the kitchen to make it, it was not as good as the Yide courtyard and the main courtyard.

After Mrs. Anping's uncle and Mrs. Geng Wen and Ruan who went to deliver the food in person looked at each other awkwardly, Geng Wen and Ruan managed to maintain a calm face, said something on the scene, and left.

But even if I saw with my own eyes that Genxun and Xia's meals were better than what I thought, and Xia's complaints in front of his daughter-in-law were much better. Send it to Yideyuan and Zhengyuan.

Then, in a certain salutation, Xia said: "In the future, each house will let the kitchen cook additional meals, or buy good food directly from outside, so you don't have to send it to me and your father. We are older. Well, my teeth are bad, I can't eat well, not to mention we often give away heavy food, where we can finish eating, we end up letting the servants in the yard eat it, so the servants eat better than the master, How can there be such a reason?"

What this means is that the delicious food that Geng Wenwen and Ruan saw when they went to deliver the food was not the daily meal in the main courtyard, but because the second or third bedroom had already delivered the food first.

These words can only make Xia's own embarrassment less.

For their eldest family, Uncle and Mrs. Uncle occupy the title of elders, even if they directly say that the daily meals are like that, Geng Wenwen and Ruan are helpless.

Such an unnecessary move seems to be a guilty conscience.

But that's good, I don't need to deliver food anymore.

"The roast chicken tastes good this time, even more fragrant than the one from Li Kee Restaurant last time. Isn't this from Li Kee Restaurant?"

Geng Wen ate a piece of roast chicken and praised it.

"The roast chicken and lo mei are bought from Ruyilou."

Geng Xingshuang felt that no matter how bad she was, she couldn't lose her mouth. She once thought about building a small kitchen in Qingcui Courtyard, but it's a pity that they didn't have anyone who was good at kitchen work in Qingcui Courtyard. Even if they spent money to build a small kitchen and bought good ingredients , The things made are probably not as good as those sent by the big kitchen, so don't worry about it.

Now I want to buy what I want to eat directly, and I can also taste various delicacies of different flavors from different restaurants, restaurants and even food stalls. I can’t eat all over the world for the time being, but at least I can set a small goal of eating all over Ningdu.

"Ruyilou, I have eaten their roast chicken before, but it doesn't taste like this."

Geng Wen recalled the Ruyilou roast chicken he had eaten.

"I heard that they have recruited a new cook. That cook is best at making roast chicken. The taste is better than before, but the price is the same."

This is what Zhu Yan said in her letter a few days ago. She also likes to eat. Although the meals in the Zhen Guogong Mansion are expensive and delicious, with a complete variety, Zhu Yan still wants to eat outside from time to time. According to her words , the same ingredients, the same cooking method, but the ones made outside are different from the ones made in the kitchen of the Duke's Mansion.

Because Geng Wen came back, he specially bought vegetables from outside for extra meals, so the dinner at Qingcui Courtyard tonight was considered very late.

But what Geng Xingshuang didn't know was that the dinner at Yingheyuan was even later, the three of them had already had dinner, and when they were walking around the yard to digest their food, the owner of Yingheyuan didn't even have the heart to eat dinner.

Even the meals on the dining tables of Geng Cheng and Yao's main house, Geng Xingbing's, and even the dining tables of Aunt Peng, fourth girl Geng Xingyu, and fifth young master Geng Shumin's mother and son in the side yard are far more than usual. The meals delivered by the big kitchen to Qingcui Courtyard and Wutong Courtyard are much richer, and it seems that none of them can whet the appetite of the hosts.

Geng Cheng went to the yamen at normal time today, his colleagues asked him to have dinner, but he politely declined, went to the main courtyard first after returning, talked with Mrs. Uncle for nearly two quarters of an hour, and then returned to the lotus courtyard.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Yao shi sitting at the dining table waiting for him. When he entered the room, he didn't get up to serve as usual, and his attitude was very cold.

"What's wrong with you?" Geng Cheng's tone was a little impatient.

"What's wrong with me? I still want to ask the master, what should I do is right. Such a big thing happened yesterday, the master doesn't remember it, or think it doesn't matter. It's just a matter of multiple daughters and a pair of chopsticks." thing?"

After this day's relief, Yao's mentality has become much calmer than when he first found out last night.

She had even made up her mind not to quarrel with her husband over this matter. It was useless to quarrel. She had already seen who her husband was and had been married to him for more than 20 years.

Now you don’t have to be angry about the unspeakable things he did. It’s really not worthwhile to get angry, and it won’t affect him in any way. Maybe he will be happy, and he thinks it’s best for him to be angry so that he can marry another young and beautiful woman. return.

I don't know when, I suddenly figured it out, he went to Aunt Peng's house a few times a month, and went to Ni's and Zhang's a few times, she didn't care anymore, she just wanted to guard her two children and keep them safe. With the son's dowry, the daughter's dowry, and his own pension money, he can live comfortably.

Why can't I bear it?

The reason is that the sinking incident is not just a matter of having an extra concubine, it involves the overall interests of Erfang.

"Didn't your daughter cause this matter? Otherwise..."

"Otherwise, even if you know about Shen Shui's existence, you will treat it as if you don't know about it, and let her end up in that place?"

Geng Cheng didn't say anything, he just complained casually based on Yao Shi's words, and he knew in his heart that even his own daughter knew about it, and it might spread to the outside world someday.

If it was known that he had sold his own daughter, and finally let her live in the land of fireworks, he would have done his job as an official.

"Let me tell you, my daughter is saving you, and she is also saving our uncle's house."

"Okay, I understand it in my heart, and I know what you are worried about. I just went to find my mother, and Mr. Liu's preferences are not single. Since there is no maid in the mansion to replace those who have been trained, how about sending them off?" A concubine's room should be fine."

"A concubine's room? Second Master Liu still lacks a concubine?" Shi Yao curled his lips. If Second Master Liu is so easy to deal with, why would they need to go to such a big trouble.

 ps: Geng Xingshuang: Ruyilou’s roast chicken is really delicious~~~
  Geng Xingbing: Can't eat and can't sleep! !!

  Yao Shi: Not angry, I really am not angry!
  Geng Cheng: I feel a little complicated...
