The reborn prince's wife

Chapter 25 Value Gold

There were a lot of guests at Mrs. Mu's birthday banquet, and the old lady seemed very happy, her gray hair was still full of energy, her grace that had gone through half a lifetime was incomparable to even the most beautiful women, and some people's temperament was slowly coming from the inside out. The splendor is not set off by the gorgeous service and expensive jewelry.

On this day, the Mu Mansion attracted quite a lot of attention. What surprised Mrs. Mu the most was that the Dongfang Mansion also sent someone to celebrate her birthday. This was a great honor.

No one knows that Lord Dongfang was once the favorite minister of Emperor Ling. He followed Emperor Ling to conquer the north and south for most of his life. Later, after the world was settled, he left Beijing to stay in Linyang City. In the city, that is, in the entire capital city, the entire Ling Kingdom has not faded away. Lord Dongfang lived reclusively, seldom showed up, and was very low-key, as if shrouded in a mysterious veil.

"Dongfang Jing complied with my father's order, and presented a birthday present. I wish Mrs. Mu such happiness as the East China Sea and a long life in Nanshan." The gestures of his hands and feet were full of the breath of a nobleman, and there was a suave look between his eyebrows. Dongfang Jing's appearance was extremely beautiful. Outstanding, coupled with the fact that the corner of his mouth is always accompanied by a smile, makes him look like a spring breeze.

"I hope the third son will thank Lord Hou for his birthday gift on behalf of the old man." Mrs. Mu was a little flattered in her heart. She never thought that her first businesswoman, Lord Dongfang would send her youngest son to give gifts. It's a great face.

"Old Madam Mu, you don't have to be so polite. My father wanted to come here to celebrate his birthday in person, but he has been ill recently, so he ordered me to deliver the birthday gift." After finishing speaking, Dongfang Jing turned slightly, and the servants of the Dongfang family filed in. , holding a few exquisite boxes in his hand, and handing them to the servants beside Mrs. Mu, he said, "Before the natural disaster in the northern part of the border, thanks to the Mu family sending 300 million taels of silver in advance, the townspeople in the northern part of the border were relieved." It was a temporary need, and I received the disaster relief money from the imperial court. My father thanked the Mu Mansion for the generosity of the Jingbei townspeople. These two plants of wild ginseng were specially given to my father by the Jingbei townspeople when my father went to Jingbei for inspection, and asked him to bring them back to Linbei. Yangcheng donated it to Mufu."

Mrs. Mu waved her hand in a modest manner, "The third son is too famous. The emperor's great grace has allowed business everywhere, and my Mu family can have what it is today. Now that the northern part of the border is suffering from natural disasters, my Mu family can contribute some modest efforts to relieve the court. It is also the glory of my Mu family."

If these words came from ordinary people, they would definitely be suspected of posturing, but Mrs. Mu acted in a natural way. At her age, she no longer regards wealth as important, and everyone is more and more convinced by Mrs. Mu. stand up.

"Mrs. Mu is indeed a model of a businessman, and Dongfang Jing admires it from the bottom of her heart." After finishing speaking, he clasped his hands together in a respectful manner.

The youngest son of Lord Dongfang was like this, and the others followed suit, praising the Mu family one after another.

At the beginning of the dinner, Liu Yun naturally sat at the main table as the prostitute, but Lan Xi was also called by Master Mu to sit beside her. Everyone could see what Master Mu was thinking. After all, there were two young people sitting on the main table. His sons, Shen Yi and Dongfang Jing.

Ji Yanran came late, and specially brought congratulatory gifts to celebrate her birthday. Madam Mu naturally also summoned her to the table.

"My father knows that the old lady is a kind-hearted person who worships the Buddha, so he specially ordered someone to find this glass jade Guanyin. I heard that it is an ancient relic from the previous dynasty. It will glow faintly at night, and it is very beautiful." Yan Ran pushed a red box to the place. In front of Mrs. Mu, the old lady gently opened it, and sure enough, she saw a jade Guanyin statue with a clear body, which was priceless at first glance, very rare.

"It really is a rare thing. Thank you father for me." Mrs. Mu has always liked Yanran. Even after the death of her daughter-in-law, the relationship between the Mu family and Ji's family gradually faded away. This Yanran girl still often visits her at Xiangyun Temple .

"As long as the old lady likes it." Yan Ran smiled lightly, and sat down next to Liu Yun.

When everyone was here, Mrs. Lin called people to serve the dishes, and the exquisite delicacies were served on the table, which made people admire again and again.

"Is this dish agate fish in the Tang banquet?" Dongfang Jing couldn't help raising his eyebrows, "I've only seen this dish in ancient recipe books, I didn't expect someone to make it now, it's really amazing. "

Lin just smiled lightly, this is natural, the person in charge of this banquet today is the former imperial chef who spent a lot of money to find.

"There is also this Chizhen deer lip, which I only ate once in the palace, and the taste is really unforgettable." Dongfang Jing narrowed his eyes exaggeratedly, as if he really missed the taste in memory, and finally he sighed, "" As expected, the Mu Mansion has strong financial resources, and these two dishes alone are worth a lot."

Mrs. Mu's complexion changed slightly. She always admired simplicity. When she first saw these delicacies being served, she felt a little displeased. It was just because there were too many guests present that she couldn't get angry, but she didn't expect Dongfang Jing to speak out so loudly. , it was a bit embarrassing for her.

"Third Young Master is indeed well-informed." Mrs. Lin covered her mouth and smiled, showing the demeanor of a mistress, "Although the master is busy on weekdays, he still ordered the mansion to prepare the birthday banquet. The young lady even followed along with her own preparations. These young ladies have personally tried these dishes and praised them a lot, and I think that even the pampered young lady can be praised, it must be excellent."

Dongfang Jing raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Yun, "Oh? So these delicacies were prepared by the eldest lady herself?"

Xia's brows were furrowed indistinctly. She had noticed that the old lady's complexion was not good. She immediately thought that the old lady always advocated frugality. Now that such a big table is extravagant, she might have been displeased for a long time. up.

I don't know if Lin is deliberately shirking responsibility, otherwise she is not like the kind of person who does not take credit.

"Third Young Master, you are joking. How can I, a little girl, know such things, but to be honest, today's dinner is really good, in my opinion, it is better than the master of the No. [-] restaurant in Linyang City." Liu Yun He replied innocently, and then said, "However, if you want me to say that the quality of the dishes is not important, the important thing is that Aunt Lin has been busy with her grandmother's birthday banquet for more than half a month. This kind of heart is the most important thing." of."

Everyone just laughed and said nothing, Liuyun immediately acted coquettishly towards Mrs. Mu, "Grandmother, although the granddaughter didn't help much, but the granddaughter still has a heart in her heart. Grandmother can't just praise Aunt Lin and forget about it." Granddaughter."

"Miss Mu is really innocent and straightforward, no wonder Mrs. Mu loves her so much." Shen Yi glanced at Liu Yun, only to find that her delicate and naive appearance is very cute, and her pouting looks like a little beast begging for food.

"Yi'er, don't praise her. This girl is a savage and willful master. If you follow her like this, her tail will go up to the sky." Mrs. Mu smiled rarely, and walked towards the stream. Yun shook his head affectionately.

Liu Yun naturally wouldn't let this fire burn on herself, but it didn't mean she didn't want to let this fire burn on others.

"But to be honest, this Chizhen Deer Lips is indeed very precious. Grandma, please taste a few more mouthfuls. It is definitely much more delicious than the light dishes you usually eat." Still ignorant and innocent, Liu Yun Gan simply got up and went to the old lady to prepare vegetables for her, while introducing them in detail, he added at the end, "These dishes are the best my granddaughter has ever eaten."

"Naturally, it's the most delicious. Miss Mu knows that the material of this delicate deer lip alone is worth a thousand dollars, not to mention the complicated processes." Dongfang Jing said to her, propping his head.

"Really? It's worth thousands of gold?" Liu Yun's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked curiously, "Isn't this dish worth decades for ordinary people?"
