delicious little cook

Chapter 797

It is actually quite fast to build a new carriage, especially under the premise of having a complete pattern drawing, the carpenters prepared materials according to the drawing, and the new four-wheel flat carriage was built in a few days, because the necessary distance between the front wheel and the rear wheel , so the four-wheeled carriage is longer and wider than the two-wheeled carriage, and it can hold more things. The price is also very good looking, but considering its strong frame, strong strength and easy driving, it is worth the money.

After the new car was built, it was a test drive in the streets of the capital. Sandbags were used to build a hill on the car. Two drivers took turns driving the car. They wandered around the streets and alleys of the capital to test the stability of the new car. Passers-by watched and were amazed at this four-wheeled carriage that could turn.

Wooden wheels still have bumps when walking on the bluestone road in the city. The relationship between the front and rear wheels, a ditch needs to be bumped twice, but the force of each bump is half that of a two-wheeled carriage, so it feels much more stable. The same road is not as bumpy as before.

The first large greenhouse was also built in these days. The old man built a large transparent house with separate trap doors to divide the large greenhouse into several sections. He hired old people in the workshop who used to grow vegetables for a living. Let's try to plant these various seeds from foreign countries, because I took detailed notes when I bought the seeds. Bai Kou sorted the seeds according to the length of the root system and the planting conditions, and prepared wooden frames and soil boxes. It will be handed over to these old people who have dealt with the land all their lives. At the same time, the second greenhouse is still under construction. If any of those seeds are successfully planted, they will be transplanted into this second greenhouse.

These things were not hidden from Gu Yun. Gu Yun knew that Bai Kou's plan was progressing steadily, and he had mixed feelings and entanglements in his heart. The palace chief knew what was going on in his mind, but he was helpless. Others who didn't know were already imagining the huge glass... What exotic plants can be grown in the house.

There was another big news coming out of Gu Yun's workshop, and the sage who had been caring about him naturally heard about it. He knew that this was Bai Kou's solution to the problem of spices, and secretly praised this little girl for really taking advantage of the situation to find a solution.

Day by day, seeing the date of Liang Zhongshan's funeral getting closer and closer, the Liang family thought that Tong Mingli had eaten the poison that killed her, so they couldn't help but become more sympathetic towards her. Tong Mingli and the people around her all watched In his eyes, he secretly laughed at the idiots of their family.

The day of the funeral finally came. Liang Zhongshan had no descendants, but the funeral scene was still grand. The clansmen and relatives put up road sacrifices, and the long procession went out of the city gate to the grave of the Liang family ancestors.

Shi Tianmin was entrusted by his uncle and aunt to ask for a day off to go to the funeral. In fact, the boys under his uncle's knees were all under ten years old, and the legitimate son was younger. He was called to be the representative to prevent the children from being frightened. In addition, he received Liang Zhongshan's inheritance. , it is reasonable to be a representative, and at the same time, he is a relative sent by the sister of the deceased. Shi Tianmin followed the team to the grave, set off early in the morning and returned to the city in the evening. Everyone laughed.

After Liang Zhongshan's funeral was over, Tong Mingli returned to her natal home early in the morning with her packed luggage and dowry. Her household registration was arranged by her natal family as early as the day after Liang Zhongshan died. Just last morality.

The Liang family and Princess Yu are counting the days to count on the day when Tong Mingli will die from poisoning, but as soon as Tong Mingli returns to her natal home, she happily bathes and cleanses herself, puts on brightly colored new clothes, combs her new hair, and sweeps the marriage between her eyebrows. After more than two months of haze, she is a beautiful young girl again. As for the clothes she took off, Mrs. Tong ordered her servants to take them down and burn them, so as not to touch the bad luck of the Liang family.

After chatting with her mother, Tong Mingli sat in the room to rest, laid out a pen and paper to write a letter to Ning Peilan, and wanted to invite the sisters of the Pomegranate Society to come out to have fun together.

Ning Peilan received the letter that day and was filled with joy after reading it. She wrote a note and asked someone to send it to Bai Kou to book a women's tea room for her. Liang Zhongshan died and died for 21 days. It's a good time for outing and enjoying the scenery.

Ever since Bai Kou found out about Liang Zhongshan's resting time, she reserved a day for Tong Mingli to relax and meet with her sisters. After receiving Ning Peilan's note, she replied without thinking, and Ning Peilan contacted Tong Mingli again. Invite the sisters to come to the tea room to chat.

Tong Mingli lived a comfortable and carefree life again, and her spirit and complexion gradually returned to the best state. She went out to visit relatives and friends all day long, and everyone in the capital knew that she was choosing someone to remarry.

It just so happened that Gu Xu's errands were handled smoothly and beautifully, and he was praised by the sage. At that time, there were many compliments, and the concierge of Duke Ye's mansion had to collect a bunch of gifts and name cards for Uncle Xu every day.

Seeing that her son was promising, the Second Madam Gu also laughed from ear to ear all day long. The official media came several times to match Gu Chan. Pick and choose.

Empress Ye suddenly sent an invitation to Second Madam Gu, inviting her to bring her daughter to the palace to attend the tea party in the garden, and she was the only one invited. Neither Mrs. Gu nor Mrs. Third were invited.

Second Madam Gu almost turned her nose up when she received this invitation, she hurriedly made new clothes from cloth for her and Gu Chan, bought some new jewelry, dressed up beautifully, and was invited into the palace.

This kind of tea party is actually a blind date party, only organized by the empress, with the highest standard. In addition, Gu Xu has been in the limelight recently, so only Mrs. Gu and Gu Chan were invited to attend. Their mother and daughter entered the imperial garden to take a closer look. Tong Mingli and Her mother was also there, and her cousins ​​sat together holding hands and chatting affectionately.

Not only mothers and daughters were invited to attend, but also those who brought their unmarried sons. Under the auspices of the queen, men and women could get along with each other freely, and these future mothers-in-law also looked for future sons-in-law that they were satisfied with.

Tong Mingli's remarriage partner had been decided long ago. A widowed young county king. His father was the younger brother of a sage, the son of the late emperor. He himself was about the same age as Tong Mingli. Now, with the Queen's permission, the two of them were already sitting alone and talking softly.

The Second Madam Gu was jealous, her sister-in-law's daughter married into the clan, and her niece also married into the clan. It would be embarrassing if her own daughter couldn't marry into the clan, so the second madam only looked around among the clan's children. She doesn't even look at the child.

The Eldest Princess and Princess Yu also brought their own daughters to attend the tea party. These sons of princes were their best choices, but Gu Yun did not receive the invitation. Empress Ye even joked that it was fortunate that Mrs. Gu and Gu Yun, otherwise all the boys at today's tea party would have been left out, making everyone laugh.
