Sir, I just want to be a salted fish

Chapter 65 Fang Zi
Although Mr. Tang San didn't like Mr. Tang's literati style, he drank the sweet and sour osmanthus wine in the cup, with a mellow and soft fragrance and a long-lasting fragrance. Looking at his second brother's love for those osmanthus trees, he didn't deliberately find fault. It made Mr. Tang angry.

"Big girl, your Zhidong is not only good at cooking, but also getting better and better at making wine. He really knows everything, and he has received the true inheritance from Mr. Wang."

Tang Bingxuan ate the five-nut mooncake and took a sip of the sweet-scented osmanthus wine. She smiled and said to Master Tang San, "Zhidong will definitely be happy to be praised by an expert like Uncle San."

After Mr. Tang Sanye grabbed a jar of liquor given by Tang Bingxuan from Jiang Shunian, he couldn't forget it. He looked for an opportunity to ask for another jar from his eldest niece, only to find out that the two jars of wine were brewed by Father Wang.

Mr. Tang Sanye also sent people to buy a few jars of wine from Mr. Wang. For a time, Mr. Wang's reputation for his excellent brewing skills spread in the Duke Rong's mansion; They all went to Dad Wang's place to buy wine at high prices, and Dad Wang also made a lot of money.

Zhidong didn't learn the art of winemaking before. Later, he started thinking about making fruit wine. Gradually, he brewed more types of wine. However, relatively speaking, he still likes to make wine that women can drink. Most of them are soft and mellow. taste.

Whether Tang Bingxuan's small kitchen comes out with new dishes, new pastries or new wines, basically everyone in the Rongguo Palace has it. Everyone loves what Tang Bingxuan sends over every time.

My sister-in-law Tang Jinglin pretended to be melancholy and said to Tang Bingxuan: "I have been away for three years, so I have to eat less of Xuan'er's filial piety. Xuan'er must give enough to my aunt in the future, otherwise my aunt will suffer a big loss!"

After hearing Tang Jinglin's words, everyone laughed at Tang Bingxuan. They should not be biased against others.

Mrs. Shao also laughed and teased Tang Bingxuan, "You girl knows how to eat it, and my eldest girl can also cook it. It just makes it easier for us who are enjoying the autumn wind!"

This year's Mid-Autumn Festival was spent with the whole family laughing.

……

The next day, Tang Bingxuan greeted Mrs. Tai from Songhe Courtyard, had breakfast, and then returned to her own yard. The climate at this time was neither cold nor hot, which was perfect for sleeping.

After letting Zhiqiu and Zhichun take off her hairpins, loosen her bun, and change her clothes, Tang Bingxuan planned to go to bed to catch up on some sleep, when the sound of several people talking came from the yard.

"Miss, the Second Madam is here and is talking to Sister Zhidong in the courtyard." The little maid came in to report that Tang Bingxuan had guests from Chaoxia Courtyard.

Why is the second aunt here at this time? Except for his mother Liu, other elders rarely come to his yard.

Tang Bingxuan had no choice but to change into the clothes for visiting guests again, and asked Zhiqiu to quickly comb her hair into a low bun. As soon as she finished arranging it, the second lady Zhang entered the back room.

Tang Bingxuan rushed over and said with a smile: "Second aunt, how are you? What kind of wind brought you here?"

The second wife, Mrs. Zhang, smiled warmly and looked at her eldest niece lovingly, "I saw that the weather was very good today, neither too hot nor too cold, so I went out to walk around in the yard. When I got to your yard, I happened to be thirsty and came in to ask for a glass of water."

Tang Bingqing's Huanxi Courtyard is located to the southwest of Zhaoxia Courtyard, which is only half an hour longer than Tang Bingxuan's Courtyard. It seems that the second lady Zhang came here for something.

"Second Aunt, please take a seat." Tang Bingxuan asked the second lady to sit down first, and then sat opposite her.

Zhichun brought two cups of tea in and placed them in front of the collapsed table where they were sitting. He also served a few snacks to entertain the second lady.

After Mrs. Zhang sat down, she casually looked at the furnishings in Tang Bingxuan's house. The last time she came to her eldest niece's yard was a year ago, and the furnishings in the house seemed to have changed drastically. The last time Zhang came to Chaoxia Courtyard was last winter, and this time she came just after summer, so the layout of the house must be different. Of course, Tang Bingxuan's warehouse does have a lot of things, and Zhiqiu, who loves beauty, will take turns to change them from time to time when she has nothing to do. furnishings.

"It's too simple to see that your bun is different from usual. Did your second aunt suddenly come over and disturb your sleep?"

The second lady came over unexpectedly without informing her eldest niece in advance. She asked her to lie down and get dressed to receive her. Mrs. Zhang looked a little stunned.

Tang Bingxuan smiled gently and mischievously and said: "What did the second aunt say? You are the elder, and my niece should go to your courtyard to say hello. This is my niece's hobby, and it has nothing to do with the second aunt."

Precisely because of my love for sleeping, not many people come to Chaoxiayuan. At most, they come before meals.

What's going on with Second Aunt coming over?
The Second Madam smiled and nodded, "That's good, Second Aunt is afraid of disturbing you."

Tang Bingxuan was not only highly praised by the wives outside the house, but also liked her by the elders and children in the house. They seemed to have forgotten Tang Bingxuan's sleepiness, and everyone was considerate of her and generally did not disturb her. hobbies.

Tang Bingqing, daughter of the second wife Zhang, was fond of reading, especially poetry. She was known as a talented woman in the circle of young ladies, but she was not well-known in the circle of ladies. Among the sisters in the house, her personality was not very likable. This is a contrast. It's easy to make people jealous.

The second wife had been living as a child in the Duke's mansion for more than ten years and lived cautiously. Even though she felt uncomfortable looking at Tang Bingxuan and thinking about her daughter Tang Bingqing, she still smiled nicely and gently.

"It's obviously the same tea, but for some reason the tea here tastes better than the tea in my yard." The second lady looked at her eldest niece and complimented.

The government distributes a few taels of fine tea to each courtyard every month. This is a rule and basically everyone has a share. They can entertain guests or drink by themselves. Will the same tea and the same water taste different? ?

Tang Bingxuan laughed and teased the second lady, "Second Aunt seems to be very thirsty."

Then Mrs. Zhang, the second lady, said that the furnishings in the room were exquisite and grand, she also praised the delicious snacks and made a lot of gossip but did not get to the point.

Tang Bingxuan saw that the Second Madam was acting like she was going to have a long conversation, so she hurriedly asked directly: "Aunt Second, did you have something to do when you came to the niece's courtyard today?"

The expression on Mrs. Zhang's face froze, and then she said nonchalantly: "What can happen to me? I just want to go out for a walk when the weather is nice."

Tang Wenyun, the second young master of the second room, took part in this year's provincial examination. He took the exam three times on the 9th, 12th, and 15th of August. He just returned home yesterday. The second wife was not busy replenishing her son's body, and she had time to go outside for a walk.

Tang Bingxuan saw that the second lady did not speak directly or force her, so she continued to entertain the second lady to drink tea and snacks, and then it was noon before her eyes.

The visitor was both a guest and an elder, so he always had to take care of lunch. Tang Bingxuan said to the second lady enthusiastically: "You will eat alone when you go back to the courtyard. Second Aunt, why don't you just eat in my courtyard today."

The Second Madam also struggled for a long time before coming to Tang Bingxuan's yard today. She didn't say anything and didn't want to just return without success, so she took advantage of the situation.
