Beautiful step by step

Chapter 83

On the vast prairie, in the temporarily cleared ground, four people sat on a wool carpet with muslin embroidered cloth towels on their legs, surrounded by a frying pan dedicated to pancakes and began to barbecue.

Yan Heng took on the task of the head chef. The meat slices were dipped in oil and roasted until they were burnt, and the vegetable slices were skewered, almost crispy like potato chips.Every time he baked a little bit, he pretended to be selfish, and put the biggest piece and the best color on the plate in front of Wei Wei.Wei Wei took the chopsticks, sprinkled some cumin powder, and ate with great enjoyment.

Ah Luo dipped in the chili powder and looked at the meat in the pot expectantly.Watching the color of the meat fade and give off a tangy aroma, and then it was put on the opposite plate by the tongs, she finally couldn't help crying.

"My meat!"

"Aro want to eat?"

Wei Wei sprinkled the cumin powder, picked it up with chopsticks, and handed it to A Luo, mouth-guiding: "Open your mouth, ah..."

Ah Luo opened his mouth wide, looking expectantly at the large piece of golden roasted meat.

When the roast meat was almost touching her lips, a sly gleam flashed in Wei Wei's eyes.Leaning forward, her wrist quickly retreated, and she stuffed a large piece of meat, which was lukewarm, into her mouth.

After chewing, she deliberately smacked her mouth: "It's delicious."

"You, I will fight with you."

Picking up the cloth towel covering her lap, Ah Luo threw it towards her in a ball.Wei Wei didn't dodge either, and caught the cloth towel with his bare hands, with a nasty smile on his face.

"Those who can't beat me by deliberately throwing water through skewers are not qualified to eat large pieces of meat."

Ah Luo's eyes widened, and he picked up the kitchen knife to hold a knife: "What's so great about being dexterous, you can't even hold a knife well."

Wei Wei glared at Yan Heng: "Isn't it just a knife? I can learn it this afternoon. As for the talent of dexterity, if you don't have it, you don't have it. But if I have it, I'm amazing."

"I can't take it anymore, eat me a whirlwind palm."

Wei Wei didn't dodge or dodge, and easily received her waving fist with one hand: "You are so soft that you still have the nerve to call it whirlwind palm... I think cotton palm is more or less the same."

Laughing unscrupulously, Wei Wei was unaware that Ah Luo's other empty hand was attacking her waist.The itchy meat started to scratch, and she immediately raised her hand to surrender: "Nine Yin White Bone Claws are still powerful, hahaha, it tickles me to death. Well, I surrender, and I will give you the next piece of meat. I will give you all, eat hard, and you will die of fat."

Withdrawing his hand, Ah Luo pinched his slender waist and said disdainfully, "I don't like spicy food, who cares about your meat sprinkled with cumin."

Wei Wei glanced at the seasoning box. She can't eat too much spicy food, and the whole box of chili noodles has hardly been touched: "What's wrong with the cumin? Are you from Liangzhou or Bashu, and you love spicy food so much."

"Cumin is tasteless, chili is enough."

This is a holy struggle between the spicy party and the cumin party, and she must not lose.After chewing two bites of the meat hidden in her cheeks, she quickly swallowed it, and countered clearly: "Cumin is worth more than gold, and chili is even better than horses. You get what you pay for."

Ah Luo was at a loss for words, and when she saw Wei Wei smiling smugly, she used the Nine Yin White Bone Claw again.

"A gentleman uses his mouth but doesn't move his hands, hey. It can't be done, haha, I'm itching to death."

"What kind of gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands? If you can suppress it with force, don't waste your words. Just like Dayue and Wala, no matter how many times you quarrel, it is not true to fight a real fight."

What Ah Luo said made sense, but she was speechless.

Now it was Wei Wei's turn to speak, she kept scratching her itchy flesh, and her laughter became louder and louder.This smile drove away all the boredom these days, and the upcoming audience in Youzhou didn't seem to be a big worry.

Ah Luo's single-minded sexual autonomy is really good. Those who stay with her will unconsciously forget their troubles, and just want to be single-celled creatures like her.

The smile on his face became more sincere, and Wei Wei looked at Yan Heng.He who has been busy with roasting meat has already put down the tongs for turning the meat, and looked at her with bright eyes.The four eyes met, and there was the same ease in his eyes.Not only him, other officials' homes not far behind him were making lunch and drooling at the smell of their barbecue.This will listen to their laughter, followed by a happy smile.

A whole circle of people, regardless of whether they are masters or servants, all showed yellow or white teeth and smiled very happily.

The atmosphere was just right, and hoarse reprimands came from a distance unexpectedly.

"It's unreasonable to be so noisy in broad daylight."

Wei Wei looked towards the source of the sound, and saw Qian Tongzhi walking towards Mrs. Qian with the support of Mrs. Qian.Madam Qian frowned, and the already deep nasolabial folds on the wings of her nose could almost kill flies even more.

"How did they come?"

Asked suspiciously, Wei Wei looked at Madam Qian and Ah Luo.At this moment, the joy on the faces of the two people was no longer the same as before, and there was a blatant disgust in their expressions.

Putting away the cloth towel, folded it twice, and placed it casually on the woolen blanket, Madam Qian stood up with an apologetic expression on her face: "Maybe I'm going to cause you trouble."

Before she could finish speaking, Mrs. Qian had already rushed forward: "What's going on with you two, that Mr. Labor Town Fu personally cooks for you."

After reprimanding her daughter-in-law and granddaughter, facing Yan Heng and Wei Wei, Mrs. Qian put on a completely different look.Frowning, she was like a parent whose child came to apologize for something wrong, her face was full of frustration.

"Master Yan, Mrs. Yan, I'm really sorry. My daughter-in-law here is not very sensible, but let Mr. Yan do the cooking herself. It's all because I didn't discipline myself well. I'm here to apologize to my lord and my wife."

After she finished speaking, she bowed slightly, her old face like withered bark was full of apology.

What a clever old lady Qian!Wei Wei said with emotion.

It was the consensus of everyone in Dai Viet that the gentleman stays away from the kitchen, but she and Mrs. Qian only met three times, and there was almost no communication in the first two.Although she helped Madam Qian check the prescription, Madam Qian was not present when Ah Luo gave her the medicine residue, so she didn't know about it.From Madam Qian's point of view, she and Madam Qian are purely nodding acquaintances.

As an elder, it is only natural for a mother-in-law to reprimand her daughter-in-law.What's more, now that the daughter-in-law has made a heinous mistake, she actually asked a Zhenfu adult who has a higher official position than Qian Tongzhi to cook in person, busy entertaining them.From the perspective of ordinary people, this kind of thing must not be tolerated. As Zhen Fu's wife, she must be a little angry, but she doesn't want to say it out of sympathy.

According to the logic of ordinary people, Mrs. Qian is a rare person who understands the truth.

But Mrs. Qian has forgotten that not all officials are like Qian Tongzhi, and Yan Heng doesn't pay much attention even when he is an official.Wei Wei is less picky than Yan Heng, she thinks eating is very simple, the first dish is delicious, and the second is to have fun.She doesn't care about how many dishes and soups are required for each meal, how many dishes are required for each meal, and the dishes are so beautifully presented that it is almost unbearable to eat.

Most importantly, Madam Qian is the biggest God of Wealth in Liangzhou City.During the barbecue break, she had a chat with Madam Qian, and found that the two could complement each other in business.Her Yanji Xiaomi focuses on packaging and targets high-end customers; Madam Qian has been in business for many years and has always paid attention to details. She has collected a lot of customer experience and has been improving service quality.She believes that with her own promotion skills and Madam Qian's service quality, the cooperation between the two will definitely be fruitful.

These thoughts flashed through Wei Wei's mind, and she looked at Mrs. Qian amusedly.

"The old lady is too polite. My husband has always been in charge of three meals a day in our family."

Yan Heng nodded, and under Qian Tongzhi's disbelieving eyes, his face did not change at all: "The reason for marrying a daughter-in-law is for pain, how can we let her be turned into a yellow-faced woman by these trivial matters in the back house."

There was a gasp all around.Wei Wei got goose bumps all over his body, why did he speak so confidently.

Covering her mouth, she glanced at Mrs. Qian and Qian Tongzhi next to her.He was looking at Madam Qian with a confused look on his face, did he turn into a yellow-faced woman by the trivial matters in the back house?

Mrs. Qian lost her husband in her early years and lived as a widow for many years. She wholeheartedly guarded her son's life.She even understood Qian Tongzhi's every move better than Madam Qian.Sensing the change in his mood, Mrs. Qian panicked.

"Master Zhenfu, I will live longer and walk a lot, so I would like to say a few more words here. It is a woman's job to be in charge of the back house. You are newlyweds who are in love, so it is inevitable that there will be more Think about it. But people who are officials are already busy with political affairs, how can they spend so much time taking care of the back house."

Yan Heng smiled softly: "I don't know about others, but in my mind, the emperor is the Son of Heaven, and the Da Yue River Qing Haiyan under his governance. As officials, we only need to do our job well." , The daily energy consumption is not too much. Besides, my back house is simple, and there are not many things to do. My daughter-in-law is a person with great ability, so she doesn't need to do such a little thing. "

How can she have any great ability!Wei Wei felt warm in her heart, and the heat spread to her limbs, making her whole body warm and her face flushed a little.

She was shy, but the servants who were cooking around nodded in agreement.The adults of their family didn't stay in the Yamen for a long time. Most of them went to the Yamen to order a dick and came back straight away.And the affairs of the back house... Mostly because there are too many concubines, each concubine competes for favor, and the concubines and daughters born by different concubines have conflicts of interest with the wife's direct children. Things also followed up.Thinking about it deeply, Master Zhen Fu's words are quite reasonable, although every man who has money wants to find a concubine to enjoy sex, but not everyone can enjoy sex.

"you……"

Mrs. Qian looked at Yan Heng with a sad face, and took good care of her. Such a high-ranking official was not ashamed but proud of being eaten to death by his wife.

Originally, as long as Yan Zhenfu was even slightly unhappy, she could take advantage of the situation and ask her son to dispatch people to completely imprison her daughter-in-law in the backyard.However, now, not only did things not develop in the direction she expected, but instead, her daughter-in-law took the road of Yan Zhenfu.Although Yan Zhenfu is not as senior as the governor of Chu, he has connections with the capital.She originally planned to follow her to this meeting, and use some means to make her daughter-in-law look ugly in front of people from the capital.But now...does she still have a chance to use her methods?Will the method fail at that time, and it will affect the son's appointment as an official?
Mrs. Qian fell into deep anxiety. After thinking and thinking, she decided that she could no longer sit still and wait for death.

He took a breath, and turned to Madam Qian in a tone of hatred for iron and steel: "Your Majesty Zhenfu doesn't mind trouble, but you can't bring all the things in the house. The meat and vegetables are gone, and the cook is also killed." You take it away, what shall we eat? It really makes everyone laugh, my daughter-in-law is a bit out of her mind, and she likes a tendon when she gets up."

"My mother is not out of her mind."

Ah Luo stood in front of Mrs. Qian and refuted Mrs. Qian without timidity.

Mrs. Qian burst into tears: "Ah Luo, how can you talk to grandma like that. No matter what your mother says, grandma always loves you? We walked this way, who put all the big pieces of meat in the bowl to you?" you."

Ah Luo said with a smile: "As long as someone comes over, you will pretend to give me a piece of meat. When you see that no one is here, you will eat up all the best things."

Qian Tongzhi was furious: "How can Luo talk like that, what about your upbringing?"

Madam Qian took a step forward, stood in front of Ah Luo, blocked Qian Tongzhi's gaze, and said with a sneer, "Could it be that you are uneducated to be honest? Originally, I didn't want to say anything, but since you mentioned it, today in front of such a With so many faces, let's settle the accounts of ten years ago at once."

Mrs. Qian fell to the ground with her buttocks, screaming: "It's against the sky, and let people not eat."

Wei Wei gave Gu Yu a wink, the latter stepped forward and handed over a handkerchief, and said loudly: "Old Madam Qian, it's no fun to make a fuss in front of so many people. It just so happens that there is food here, why don't we sit down and have a drink while we eat?" Talk about it while eating?"

Madam Qian nodded: "I have no objection, I'm just afraid that some people would not dare. Ten years ago, Mr. Tongzhi didn't have such a good reputation now."

Qian Tongzhi said anxiously: "Madam, think about Luo."

Ah Luo was also anxious: "Mom, you don't have to worry about me."

Wei Wei stood beside Yan Heng with her arms around her chest, looking at Mrs. Qian and Tongzhi Qian who looked guilty.Sure enough, as she expected, Mr. Qian was definitely not as good as the rumors said.No matter what happened ten years ago, the daughter-in-law risked her life to give birth to a son who was almost poisoned to death by his mother. When such a big incident happened, he still favored his mother-in-law.This alone is enough to prove how disgusting he is.

"A Luo?" Madam Qian sneered: "I was thinking about A Luo, so I kept silent. But just because I love A Luo, it doesn't mean that I allow you to use her as a stalker, and blindly take things one step at a time."

Qian Tongzhi's shoulders drooped, and Mrs. Qian also held back her tears.

"Where there is Madam Yan, there is a lot of excitement."

Following the sound, Mrs. Chu walked over surrounded by a group of official wives.Seeing her coming, Mrs. Qian, who was already in despair, seemed to have found her backbone, got up with a grunt, and walked towards her sobbing.

"Mrs. Chu, you have to make up your own mind. My daughter-in-law here is going to go against the sky..."

Mrs. Chu ignored her and looked at Wei Wei with a slight hostility on her lips.

Wei Wei raised his head to look at her, and sure enough, he saw the maid waiting by the curtain in the crowd.However, Mrs. Chu's hostility made her a little puzzled.She was fine just now, and even thoughtfully asked the maid to give her some incense.

"Isn't it good to see the excitement?"

Don't think about the hostility for now, Wei Wei said with a smile, trying to resolve the hostility as gently as possible.

Mrs. Chu sneered: "Mrs. Yan's heart is not like a bright mirror. When you arrive in Youzhou and let the emperor see the excitement, the whole Liangzhou will not be able to follow suit."

Wei Wei glanced at Madam Tong, who was in front of Madam Chu, with an innocent face: "Madam is very aware of the details, these matters have nothing to do with me."

Mrs. Chu sarcastically said: "Looking at your face, I know it has nothing to do with you. Mrs. Qian, I think Mrs. Qian is old and can't stand the bumpy journey. Don't you think that if you're not afraid of [-], you're just in case?"

Old Madam Qian sat down on the ground, she wanted to shut up her daughter-in-law, how did she become a daughter-in-law in the blink of an eye and shut her up?

Madam Qian smiled and nodded: "Madam Chu is right, I will send someone to send the old lady back to recuperate."

Mrs. Chu nodded with satisfaction, and looked around sharply: "The matter of the audience is of great importance, and no mistakes can be tolerated. Whoever loses Liangzhou's face, I can't keep it."
