Chronicle of Farming in Muxianfu

Chapter 367 A Feast of Hundred Flowers ([-])

The so-called flowery sedan chairs are carried by everyone, and the aristocratic families pay attention to a balanced way, and rarely make enemies for no reason, especially the upstarts like Muxianfu who seem to have a shallow foundation but have unlimited development potential. Who knows that after a few years, this mansion Will it be more rooted and leafy than them?Therefore, when Xiao Heng sent posts to the door on behalf of the Muxian Mansion, everyone accepted them kindly.

On July 21st, the other courtyard of the Muxian Mansion in Huadu, covering an area of ​​four acres of elegant garden, servants began to come and go busily.The Prince's Mansion, which was rewarded by the King, is located on Qinglong Street. The craftsmen of Taipu Temple are repairing it, so they chose this place to entertain guests.

Mu Wu and Chun Equinox handed over several shops to Mu Jiujiu to take care of, and then moved to Yayuan to live together. Dishes and treats for guests.

After noon, Mu Ai took over the villa, and then boarded the car under the awe-inspiring eyes of the farmers, and then went down Banyue Mountain and entered Huadu all the way.When Xiao An entered the palace, Xi Fu took on the duty of serving his wife personally. She was the most stable among the four maids, and she was trained by Xiao An for several months. She learned to be cautious, but nothing happened in the past few days. error.

The maids arranged the salutes for the masters swiftly, and then began to help tidy up the house. The Spring Equinox Muwu and his wife greeted the mistress, and then began to report the arrangement of the banquet.

Although the cooking skills of the Spring Equinox are not as good as the Autumn Equinox, they are better than Xiaoan. It is not a problem to handle a banquet. Besides, Xiankelou will support a few chefs, and then cook some second- and third-class noodles. With a few maids, it is also very busy to be in charge of the dishes for the first-class seats.

Mu Ai took the two of them to walk around the house, pouring spring water on some slightly decaying flower beds, moving some canna bushes, and adding some roses to the corners of the house. It was originally built very elegantly. The house has added a bit of tranquility, although there is no aura of wealth and nobility, it is also a beautiful scene in the world.

Most of the servants who came and went in the yard were bought by Mu Wu in the past one or two years. It is rare to see the master on weekdays. Now they are standing by the wall, watching their mistress green the lawn and red the flowerbed with her wave of hands. Concealing their excitement, their master is really a fairy, and they were lucky enough to enter the fairy family's mansion.So after the masters entered the hall, everyone rushed to do the work immediately, which made several stewards from Kao City laugh.

Chun Equinor took the menus of the banquets in the mansions of various aristocratic families collected by sent people, and then began to draft the banquet dishes with Mu Ai.

Two days ago, when Liniang and the two wives of the Wei family were invited to live in the mountains, they carefully explained to Mu Ai about the situation of the nobles in Huadu.Mu Ai thought over and over again, since she has already become the prince, and she can't refuse to hold a big banquet, why not just hold it more grandly and novelty, and bring out all the strange dishes that the family has eaten in the past, and let the people in the world also Check out the variety of ways to make those new vegetables and rice.

After the third-class table and noodles are settled, ten snacks are prepared, there is no shortage of fruits at home, and there is no need to buy vegetables, fish and shrimp, just kill a few pigs and sheep.But because Mu Ai is a woman, the female relatives of various families will definitely come to the door, so the tables in the inner courtyard have been replaced with some dishes that suit women's tastes.

After such an agreement, it took another hour. Seeing that his wife seemed to be a little tired at the spring equinox, he left Xifu to serve her, and then took Xiyuan and the others to work. Mu Ai also knew that she was doing things well, so she went in In the study room, I accompanied Dayu and Xinger to study and draw, and it was rare to take a break from their busy schedule.

Sun Mansion on Ningle Street, after dinner, Sun Huaji, the servant of the military department who is the lord of the mansion, brought two Qing guests to drink tea and discuss paintings in the study room. One of the elderly Qing guests picked up the gold-plated invitation card on the desk , asked, "My lord, you really don't plan to come to congratulate this Muxian mansion's banquet?"

Sun Huaji stroked his gray beard, frowned slightly and said, "It's not that Mr. Huang doesn't know that the old man has always disliked these social affairs. The upstarts of the Muxian Mansion come to congratulate him at this time, isn't it a suspicion of clinging?"

Mr. Huang nodded as if agreeing on his face, but he couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart. His family is good at everything. He is famous in Huadu for his uprightness and uprightness. Those who are different are also very easy to be excluded. If it is not appreciated by His Majesty the Lord, I am afraid that the official positions of these three ranks will not be guaranteed.

It so happened that Mrs. Sun brought two maidservants in to deliver refreshments. When she heard these words of conversation, her heart was moved. After serving her husband to wash and go to bed at night, she whispered her guess.

On the second day after the mansion arrested the drunken mortal, Mrs. Sun thought about it and told her husband what happened that night. Both husband and wife were very grateful.Their youngest daughter, Hui Niang, was an only child, and the two loved each other very much since they were young. This time, in order to keep their daughter safe, Master Sun, who had always disdain to ask for help, even accepted the help of Deputy Commander Zhang.It's a pity that Zui Hongchen almost took advantage of his loopholes. If it wasn't for the help of that lady, I am afraid that his daughter's innocence would be lost.It's just that after the lady left that night, she never showed up again, and they couldn't thank them if they wanted to.

Hearing Madam say this at this time, Sun Shilang quickly asked, "Madam, are you sure that person is this Madam Xian?"

Mrs. Sun pondered for a while before saying, "The concubine and Hui Niang were so scared that night that they lost their minds and didn't pay attention to some details. After thinking about it, I realized that Mrs. was a little different. When she was feeding Hui Niang, the water cup and The water appeared in his hands suddenly. The concubine has heard rumors in the past few days that the fairy lady is good at fairy arts, and she is best at taking things out of thin air. Thinking about it, there should be no second woman in the world who can be like her. So, my concubine guessed that Mrs. Xian was the benefactor who saved Hui Niang."

Sun Shilang nodded, "Since Madam said so, there are five points of truth in this matter. Tomorrow, I will make a gift first, and you and Hui Niang will come to congratulate me with me. If Madam Xian is really Hui Niang's benefactor, we will prepare a generous gift later. Thanks."

After the husband and wife discussed it, they chatted a few gossips they had heard from each other, then turned off the lights and went to sleep.

In the early morning of July 22, when the sky was slightly bright, it rained for half an hour, which only moistened a layer of ground. However, the grass was greener, the flowers were more beautiful, and the suffocating heat was gone in the air. It was a rare cool day.

After noon, one after another, gorgeous or ordinary carriages turned into Baole Lane in the south of the capital. It was called Lane, but the width of the road was similar to that of the main street in an ordinary small town. So the courtyard walls and gatehouses on the street are also very grand, with tall and lush willow trees planted two or three meters apart. In such a summer, you can feel a kind of coolness as soon as you enter the alley.

Xiao Heng brought Dayu, Mu Wu and other shopkeepers, and stood in front of the gate to welcome customers. Food is the sky, and Fresh Fruit Zhai sells expensive food. Mu Wu and the others also have contact with those rich and powerful families on weekdays. But most of them are managers, and today is the most glorious day in their family's house. They will naturally show their faces and grow their own ambitions, which will also be beneficial to future business.

Xiao Hengben grew up in Huadu, and his status is not low. Now he has been working as a minister for three years. He belongs to the royal family with real power, and naturally has a wide range of contacts. Most of the master books can be recognized.

As soon as a carriage arrived, he would introduce it to Dayu with a smile. The guests knew that Dayu was the eldest son of Mrs. Xian, so they didn't dare to trust him, so they were very polite.

The carriages of the women's relatives went directly to the second gate, and Liniang and the two wives of the Wei family led them to sit in the flower hall of the inner courtyard.

At the end of the hour, Wei Guang also rushed over, stood in front of the door without any hesitation, and together with Xiao Heng and Dayu greeted the guests.This kind of behavior made those senior officials from various aristocratic families and ministers above the second rank couldn't help but add some weight to the word Muxianfu in their hearts.

In the inner courtyard, Xifu and the others brought more than [-] little girls to serve in the main hall like butterflies wearing flowers. The sweet honey water, beautifully shaped and delicious snacks, and the bright and dripping fruits, plate after plate, made everyone feel happy. All the female relatives were full of praise.

Three years ago, because of her son's merits, the old lady of the Wei family also received a first-grade imperial seal. This time she said she came to congratulate her, but she actually brought her two daughters-in-law to support Mu Ai. She sat in the flower hall , the highest grade, the age is also old, talk about the benefits of honey and fruit, and then introduce beauty and beauty, how can women not like it, and it is very lively for a while.

After all the guests were received, Mu Ai finally changed into the cumbersome set of imperial court clothes, because Baihua had never had a female prince, so a group of people from Honglu Temple waited for a day to study, and then submitted a booklet to invite the king. A queen's outfit was ordered.

Three thousand black jade-like green silks were coiled into a complicated and delicate venetian bun, and the back of the head was fixed with a purple gold imperial phoenix hairpin. Amethyst is carved into a pendant in the shape of a flying phoenix, a necklace of holy emeralds and pearls hangs on the chest, an emerald square flat bracelet on the hand, and a ring of white jade fish.A set of gold and silver silk phoenix embroidered court clothes, matched with embroidered shoes with Yunfei makeup and satin embroidered with hundreds of flowers and butterflies, and a jade pendant of the Holy Lord Yuqingxi hung on the waist.

Chunfen knew that his wife had a special set of rouge, so he insisted on begging, "Ma'am, today is the most glorious day in our entire mansion, when you don't want to dress up now, why don't you dress up now? Quickly take out that set of rouge and powder." ?”

Mu Ai thinks about it for the same reason, so she has to hold back her temper, sit in front of the mirror and lightly brush her brows, apply a little powder, elongate her eyelashes, draw eyeliner and dark eye shadow, after a while of painting, it really adds another touch. A three-point demeanor.

There are still furniture brought in from the old house in the space, and the standing cabinets are moved out casually. The large mirror mounted on the door can just reflect the whole body.

　I finally caught up with the [-]:[-] update. It was really not easy. I found that if I ran between the hospital and the work unit, I could lose weight and return to the standard body shape. Keep working hard. Thank you for your support!We are working hard to speed up the progress! !
