People in Datang, start with a golden hoe

Chapter 98 098: Cui Lu's Treat, Cai Xiaolan Cooks
"Shi Yu, why aren't you well yet!" Lu Xingye waited impatiently downstairs.He told his sister last night that he would leave early today.An hour ago, I called the servant to remind me once, and half an hour ago, I came to remind me again.

"Brother, it's time to blush!" Lu Shiyu poked her head out of the window and replied anxiously.She was also anxious, but she didn't know what happened to her makeup box today, and it didn't work well no matter how she used it.

"Hurry up, a servant came from the governor's office just now and said that the place to eat today is in the countryside. Don't you always urge me to take you to the countryside to get some fresh air?" After Lu Xingye said this, he seemed a little unhappy. , and added, "I heard from the servants that the people I went to today seem to be all women!"

Upstairs, Lu Shiyu, who had only just painted her eyebrows, paused and muttered, "Isn't this a waste of my treasure?"

She glanced at the precious cosmetics she brought from Chang'an, the face powder from Qilizhai, the lip red from Hongshiju, Baopingfang...

She went downstairs coyly, and when she saw Lu Xingye, she immediately became fierce, "Brother, you shouted at me too hastily just now, and you blinded Rouge. You have to pay for it!"

"Yes, I will pay. After the New Year is over, I will send someone back to Chang'an to buy you a box. Do I have to pay for another box of powder, an eyebrow pencil, and..."

"Okay, brother, just remember it and don't say it out loud!" Lu Shiyu was ashamed.This is even more "rare" than a dog chasing its own tail.

……

"Brother, it's so refreshing!" Lu Shiyu took a deep breath, and continued: "The garden at home is beautiful, but it's definitely not as open-minded as here!"

"Well, yes, the scenery is indeed more bold and unrestrained than the man-made scenery!" Lu Xingye responded.

"Steward, how long until we arrive?"

"Return to Mr. Lu, it's right in front. You can see the house soon!" Sitting in the coachman and narrating you, the steward of the governor's mansion pointed at the smoke rising in front of you.

"Well, everything else in the countryside is good, but there is nothing delicious!" Lu Xingyequan regarded today's trip as a visit to poor relatives with the chief.The emperor still has three poor relatives.

When talking about food, he suddenly thought of the snacks he had the cheek to snatch last time, and quickly asked: "By the way, the snacks that Cai Xiaolan brought last time were really good. Is the restaurant she said she was going to open open?" ? Now that we have time, let’s go buy a few more things to eat.”

"I really know!" Talking about Cai Xiaolan's store, Lu Shiyu became interested, and this was the first time she applied what she learned, "She invited me to draw some pictures, which are in her new store. Unfortunately, She didn't meet any good people, and the workers who worked there were all veterans and refused to work."

"Is there still such a situation?"

"Who says it's not the case? These people take money and work hard day by day." When Lu Shiyu was painting at the construction site, he could always see them sitting lazily.

"Where is her shop?"

"Across the lake from Yamen!"

"No wonder, the construction team in Zicheng has something to do with the engineering department. Cai Xiaolan definitely doesn't know the way to do it, and didn't give money to the engineering department. No wonder they block your time. This is waiting for you to find someone!" Lu Xingye Knowing the location, I immediately realized the key point.

"Then I understand. I'll tell Cai Xiaolan when I see her next time."

While the two were chatting, the carriage turned down the official road and arrived at the place.The two opened the door curtain and saw Xu Yinlian who was in charge of welcoming guests. Strictly speaking, they saw the long scar on Xu Yinlian's face.

Lu Shiyu hesitated, "Is this a cottage or a den of thieves?"

"My lords, please come inside!" Xu Yinlian welcomed the person into the room.There is a table of people chatting in the room.

The embarrassment of bringing relatives and friends is here.

Rao Li Yunguang has been in the officialdom for more than ten years, and he can't hold his face anymore.His cheeks were slightly red, and he introduced to Cui Lushi and Wang Ji: "This is Judge Lu Xingye, the new judge from Yangzhou Prefecture. The previous Jinshi of the new department. He is young and promising. I will bring him to see him, Yangzhou wild old man. .”

"Sanction Lu, this is Mrs. Cui Le, Mrs. Cui's wife!" Li Yunguang first introduced Cui Lu, and then continued to introduce Wang Ji, "This is Wang Ji."

Hearing these two names, Judge Lu only dared to sigh in his heart, "After all, Mr. Li has the surname. Anyone else would not dare to associate with these two people."

Cui Le is the number one adviser under King Xiyin.The other Wang Ji's reputation is not obvious, but Lu Xingye once heard that there was an old man from the previous dynasty who had served as an official in the court for several years, and then returned home due to illness.The saint is angry.

"I have met Mrs. Cui in my humble position, and I have met Mr. Wang!" Lu Xingye gave an official salute to both of them.When these two people had official status, their ranks were much higher than his.

"Lord Lu is serious, I'm just a commoner now." Wang Ji and Cui Lu hurriedly returned the salute.

……

Not to mention the embarrassing scene in the lobby, Cai Xiaolan was very busy in the kitchen.If she hadn't experienced it personally, she wouldn't have believed it if anyone had told her that being a daughter-in-law was difficult.One person actually has to handle three pots.

Not only that, if you count the steamer, there are four pots per person.

If the royal servant hadn't been responsible for getting firewood, she would have been too busy on her own.

"Miss Xiaolan, you are really good. You can handle such a large table of dishes by yourself. There must be seventeen or eight dishes!" Wang Pu's saliva flowed all over the floor.

"Eight cold dishes, ten hot dishes, and one hot pot!"

Her eight cold dishes are the eight soy products she plans to put on the shelves in the new store.Most of the ten hot dishes are meat dishes.There are more dishes in the hot pot.

"Wang servant, why don't you take a bowl and I'll pick some dishes for you to eat first?" Cai Xiaolan suggested.

"Is this good?" The king's servant took out a bowl from nowhere and was already standing behind him.

"Then you secretly go and bring Sister Xu and the two children here, and I'll serve you a little of each." Cai Xiaolan was very disgusted with the rule that the children were not served on the table.

Not long after, all three came.

These three people are more greedy than Wang Pu.Wang Pu is helping in the kitchen and can feast his eyes.But the one big and two small outside can only smell the smell.

"Eat slowly, tell me what you want to eat!" Cai Xiaolan put down this sentence, and Cui Dongping raised his hand.

"Third brother and sister-in-law, I want to eat that!" Cui Dongping pointed to the dry-fried lamb chops that had just been cooked on the stove.

"it is good!"

"Third brother and sister-in-law, I want to eat that!" Xu Xiaoqin pointed at the pickled vegetables and pork.

"it is good!"

"Third brother and sister-in-law..." Wang Pu couldn't help shouting, but Cai Xiaolan stopped him before he finished shouting.

"You can eat whatever you want, don't shout!" Cai Xiaolan wanted to shut his mouth.For such a big person, he doesn't have a clue about his mouth.

"I'm not saying it's easy..."

The two big and the young ones who ate first, although they wanted to eat and drink, they all paid attention to the complete appearance of the dishes, and they didn't want to eat any of the pigeons, chickens, or ducks.
