The Regent's Concubine Mad Concubine

Chapter 19

In the country of Yan, the distinguished guests have always been guests, and what the distinguished guests eat and drink at the mansion is treated preferentially by the head of the sect.

So Jinxue's words were saying that if Mrs. Taifu and Mrs. Yushi wanted to eat the food at the barbecue banquet today, the responsibility for paying the money would belong to Mrs. Wang.

Originally, the food for entertaining distinguished guests was provided by the mansion’s expenses, but everyone in the Zhen Guogong’s mansion knows that the monthly expenses of the mansion must be calculated by the head of the house early in the morning and listed in the account book. If there are no special circumstances, the monthly expenses will be about the same .

If there is a special accident and there is a monthly shortage of funds, the total funds of the warehouse must be withdrawn, but this must be reported to the Duke of the State, and he will weigh it before releasing it.

Therefore, for a small event like today's barbecue banquet, the mansion naturally did not provide its own silver taels, and the expenses naturally belonged to Wang's own silver as the host.

Since it was at her house, it was just like Wang's usual shopping and entertaining with people.

And she also cares about saving face, and usually the food and gifts in the house are high-end.In order not to be accused by Zhen Guogong of gossiping with the servants of the mansion, Zhang often claimed that the money that Zhang usually gave gifts in the mansion was from her treasury.

But even so, there is still a monthly shortage of funds in the treasury of the government.

In fact, who doesn't know that the Wang family may secretly extract the monthly funds from the treasury to spend ragingly, making the government's expenses always very tight.

However, she is hypocritical and loves her good reputation to death, and let the world know how well she manages the family in the Zhenguo government.And the servants of the family have long been suspicious, but because of her dignified status, they dare not make a mistake.

At this time, all the people present looked at Wang Shi, and Wang Shi suddenly became a little unnatural when he was looked at by everyone's eyes.

Seeing that Jinse on the other side gave her a sneaky look, she shook her head desperately.

She seemed to be misunderstood, and smiled proudly at Mrs. Taifu: "Madam, please don't worry! Today's banquet is invited by Minlan. You, my sister-in-law and the two young masters just need to eat delicious food today!"

As soon as Wang finished speaking, Jinse couldn't help but sighed, and immediately felt sorry for Wang's next bleeding.

Mrs. Wang then told Nanny Fang next to her, "Go to the warehouse and get some silver!"

Mother Fang asked suspiciously, "Ma'am, how much money do you want?"

Wang said with a sneer: "The left and right are just some snacks, 50 taels is enough!"

However, Caiyue heard this, and immediately said in a hurry: "Mrs. Caiyue dares to say that 50 taels is probably not enough, because a chicken wing is only 30 taels, not to mention anything else!"

Mrs. Wang and everyone present were shocked when they heard this, but Mrs. Yu Shi said sarcastically, "Miss Fifth, why don't you go grab the money? It's worse than our big merchants in Yan Country?"

Mrs. Tai Fu said regretfully: "It seems that the delicacy of today's barbecue banquet is really exciting. I guess only high prices can match the delicacy. It is worth the money, but it seems that I am afraid that I will not be able to eat it. Already!"

Wang's complexion was so ugly that it couldn't be any uglier, so she could only suppress her anger, and quickly apologized to Mrs. Taifu with a smile: "What's the matter? Madam, don't worry, Minlan promised to be a good host, how can she break her promise!"

After finishing speaking, she glared at Jinyu angrily, the little bitch thought that she was rude in front of these two wives and two sons, and lost her pride in the past, hmph, I'm afraid she was overthinking, left and right were just a matter of She could still afford to lose some silver, so Mother Fang ordered coldly: "Go to the warehouse and get 500 taels of silver!"

Only then did Mother Fang take the order and leave.

Not long after, Caiyue and Mengxi selected a few large dishes of delicious food from the long table and put them on the expensive table.

The expensive table is neither big nor small, but it is already full, and the delicious food is right in front of you.

The aroma was even stronger, and it made everyone present salivate.

Mrs. Tai Fu first took a bunch of chicken wings and looked at them. Seeing the golden and shiny chicken wings, she was confused for a while.

Jinyu's Qingyue voice introduced: "Mrs. Taifu, these are roasted chicken wings. Because they are baked in a charcoal oven, they may easily get angry, so Jinyu specially prepared herbal tea to clear away heat and detoxify for Madam and everyone, but it is still necessary to Remind you to eat less barbecue!"

Mrs. Taifu smiled and nodded at Jinyu, and then put the chicken wing to her lips and took a bite. For a while, everyone else in the room looked at her expectantly.

After Madam Taifu tasted it, her eyes sparkled, she looked delighted, and she was full of praise: "Well, the fragrance leaves your lips and teeth, the taste is crispy, and the aftertaste is endless. It is indeed delicious!"

As soon as Mrs. Tai Fu finished speaking, everyone in the room hurriedly reached for the plate of grilled chicken wings, and all of them began to eat with relish.

Immediately, the school grounds resounded with joyful eating sounds full of praise, only Mrs. Wang was still sitting calmly with a gloomy face.

Annoyed and swallowing in embarrassment, she told herself in her heart that she would never eat something made by this little bastard.

　Curious to know, has anyone watched it?
