self-improvement as a cook

Chapter 77

There has always been only one way to appease a jealous and restless man, and the result of appeasement is immediate. When the An family master came out of the inner courtyard, he was completely different from the man who just returned to the mansion. Anyone who saw the black face just now trembled in their hearts. But now he is full of energy.

Liu Xi'er's heart has just come down.

An Jiamu originally wanted to take a nap with his daughter-in-law, but Liu Xi'er didn't want Liu Xi'er to tell someone that Eunuch Lin from the palace had come and said he wanted to see the elder.

An Jiamu was really surprised. Speaking of Lin Xing, he is now the most favored eunuch in front of the emperor. Although he may be a slave, but if he wins the emperor's favor, he is more useful than a first-rank official in the court. After all, every day Serving in front of the emperor, as long as this slave's mouth is crooked, and his coldness makes a trip, the black gauze hat on his head might not be able to keep.

Therefore, now this Eunuch Lin is not only a celebrity in front of the emperor, but also civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and local officials, who are vying to give gifts to the best sons, and they have overshadowed Zhang De, the chief executive, and Liu Hai, the eunuch serving food.

Moreover, don't look at this guy who has only been favored for a few months, but he is the most daring, daring to blatantly ask for favors and accept bribes, and if he doesn't like it, he will show you right away.

A lot of ministers who suffered a lot, privately scolded this slave for being cunning, treacherous, and vicious, but it was useless to scold him. He was still doing well, and many ministers said that the emperor was confused and spoiled such a treacherous and vicious slave. , I don't know how many courtiers will suffer.

An Jiamu doesn't believe such rumors. The current emperor is not a good person. Back then, the queen mother of Duan Jing died early, and the former emperor appointed Wang's daughter as the new queen, and gave birth to King Ning. Under such unfavorable circumstances, the emperor still kept How could he be a trustworthy and sycophantic faint-hearted emperor who took over the position of the crown prince and successfully ascended the throne as the new emperor after the death of the first emperor, and was able to keep Dayan in its current prosperous age.

Therefore, there must be a reason why Lin Xing gained power, or it can be said that what Lin Xing did was acquiesced by the emperor, or, the emperor suddenly became interested and wanted to pamper such a slave.

After all, the emperor is also a human being, and as a human being, there are always preferences, especially though the emperor is the son of heaven, the [-]th five-year-old, but when you think about it carefully, you are extremely depressed. There are countless government affairs to be dealt with, and you can only be locked in the palace every day, which is a little bit If the child is out of line, the official censor will jump out, and even which concubine to sleep at night has to be weighed.

Going back and forth like this, there is nothing new about finding some fun for yourself. Doting a servant is like raising a dog, teasing and teasing it normally, seeing who doesn't like it, letting it out and biting it a few times can relieve the anger.

This is An Jiamu's positioning for Lin Xing. From An Jiamu's point of view, people like Lin Xing are the best to deal with. When dealing with these court officials, An Jiamu is most afraid of being corrupt officials. Trouble, like his brother.

If this person has no hobbies, there will be no shortcomings, and he will be difficult to deal with. An Jiamu likes Lin Xing. To put it bluntly, isn't it just money, the most important thing his An family needs is money.

The big shopkeeper of Jingli Anji said that he was taking care of the business, but in fact, he was arranged in Beijing for the purpose of opening up the relationship between the superior and the superior, so as to ensure the fastest news and government orders from the superior. It can't be separated, only with good eyes and ears can we guarantee that our business will last for a long time.

In particular, the eunuchs in the palace were the most useful. Once Lin Xing was favored, he gained a lot of benefits from Anjia. For the culinary competition, An Jiamu asked the shopkeeper to give him a generous gift according to Lin Xing's preferences.

Although there was such a relationship in private, but Lin Xing came to the door, but it was a big taboo, and he didn't want to see him, but he thought that Lin Xing was now in favor, and it was a critical moment for the imperial chef competition. If he offended this slave, if he had bad intentions, But trouble.

In An Jiamu's mind, as long as it is related to his daughter-in-law, it is not a big deal, and everything needs to be thoughtful to be sure, so he decided to meet Lin Xing and see what he is here for. I thought I was a big head, and I came to ask for benefits.

But as soon as he entered the living room, he saw this Eunuch Lin, which really surprised An Jiamu. This eunuch is really handsome, and he is not too tall. The eunuchs are all women, which is nothing, but this Eunuch Lin There was an indescribable smell about him, and he was extremely bold. He looked him up and down several times, and that gaze gave An Jiamu the illusion that he was up for sale.

He couldn't help but frowned slightly, and cupped his hands: "I don't know if Eunuch Lin came to the humble house, and I'm not far away from welcoming you, I hope you can forgive me."

The little eunuch was actually polite: "My lord, you are too polite. Lin Xing took the liberty to come to the house because he wanted to see Madam."

An Jiamu's face darkened, and he said coldly: "My wife is not feeling well, I'm afraid I won't be able to come out to entertain Eunuch Lin."

An Jiamu's words were already very clear, but the little eunuch didn't want to say: "It's so good, I am proficient in medical skills." Seeing that An Jiamu was about to get angry, he laughed: "My lord, don't misunderstand, Lin Xing is not No other intentions, just because I heard that Chef An's reputation is quite similar to that of the next fellow, so I came here."

fellow countryman?An Jiamu's heart was shocked. An Ran's origin has always been a mystery that cannot be solved. He knew that she was not the girl in his house, but he didn't know who she was. Because of this, he couldn't sleep well for a few days, for fear of waking up. , this girl is gone, and now a fellow countryman pops up suddenly, how can he not be shocked.

An Jiamu collected himself and looked at him deeply: "You said you are from my wife's hometown?"

Lin Xing nodded: "That's right." But he said in his heart that as long as she was the dead girl he knew, she would definitely be from the same village.

An Jiamu was silent for a long time: "Can I know where Eunuch Lin's hometown is?"

Now Lin Xing is more and more sure that Mrs. An is the dead girl who suddenly disappeared without a trace. Looking at the man's unconcealed nervousness, it can be seen that he really regards An Ran as a treasure.

Moreover, even if they don't know An Ran's origins clearly, they still vaguely understand them, which is much easier. However, since An Ran doesn't explain it to him, it makes sense, and their origins are really hard to tell.

Thinking of this, he blinked: "I forgot about this myself."

But An Jiamu stood up abruptly: "I think Eunuch Lin has found the wrong person. My wife is an authentic Jizhou native. As long as Eunuch Lin has a quick scan, you will know that your wife's origin is not from the same town that Eunuch Lin found. There are other people in the mansion. I won't be with my father-in-law anymore, Liu Xi'er will see off the guests."

Liu Xi'er hurried in: "Eunuch Lin, please."

Lin Xing was stunned for a long while, but seeing An Jiamu's expression like a black pot, he probably misunderstood his relationship with An Ran, and this man's jealousy was unreasonable.

Moreover, this guy happens to be An Ran's man, I can't do anything to deal with him, I can only suppress my anger, I guess I can only find another way to see An Ran, it is absolutely impossible to count on this man.

Anyway, in a few days, it will be the Royal Chef Competition. I can't believe that he can still stop me from seeing that girl. The man is amazing. When I was sleeping with An Ran, he didn't know where he was, and stood up angrily. After leaving, it was like seeing each other in disgust.

Liu Xi'er sent Lin Xing'er out of the mansion and said: "Elder-in-law, you really found the wrong person. My wife is really from Jizhou, and she belongs to our An Mansion from the very beginning."

Lin Xing rolled his eyes, isn't this nonsense, he is still an eunuch at all, who to ask for reasoning, snorted, and said angrily: "No matter how powerful your Anfu is, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out like An Ran Chef, stop putting gold on your face. You and I can’t understand that girl. Go back and tell your elder that it’s useless no matter how closely he takes An Ran. I don't know where the master has turned his nerves, even if I marry him, as long as I don't agree, An Ran will have to make peace with your elder master." He left without saying a word.

Liu Xi'er was stunned for a long time, then slapped her thigh, ouch, this is not good, looking at Mrs. Madam and Mei Eun'ai, why did this suddenly pop up to spoil the situation, if someone else paid it back, it happened to be the celebrity in front of the emperor, if this is true It's troublesome to make a bad move, so I hurried back to report the letter.

An Jiamu is still sitting on the chair and angry now, thinking of the ambiguous virtue of the dead eunuch just now, his heart is sour, and when Liu Xier came in and said Lin Xingliu's words, he was even more angry, his face was black It's blue in the face, and it's gnashing its teeth. It's very scary to look at.

Liu Xi'er couldn't help but took a step back, and stammered: "Well, sir, I see this kid is talking nonsense, Madam has never left Jizhou Anfu, why is there any fellow..."

Before Liu Xi'er could finish speaking, An Jiamu had already left the living room and headed for the backyard.

An Ran really admires him, his physical strength is so good, An Jiamu realized that he was in a rage, and his strength was too strong. He was afraid that his daughter-in-law would be annoyed and would have a cold war with him, so he immediately waited for his daughter-in-law to bathe and change clothes in a low profile, plus massage, wipe hair, while secretly measuring An Ran's expression.

This obviously guilt-ridden behavior is quite funny in An Ran's eyes. Although she doesn't know why, An Ran also felt his anger just now, and she did it with extra force, and it is impossible to ignore it. Now An Ran still feels his anger There were bursts of numbness and soreness in my waist, as if it was almost not my own.

An Ran looked at him suspiciously: "What happened?"

An Jiamu wouldn't mention that dead eunuch, hugged her in his arms and shook his head: "It's nothing." After a while, he said, "Tell me about your family, okay? I remember you said about your grandfather, And your parents, who else besides them?"

An Ran was stunned for a moment, not expecting him to bring this up, since Suzhou said he had opened up that time, he had hardly mentioned it, perhaps because of the uncertainty of this matter, the two chose to avoid it by coincidence, while An Jiamu now Asking out, it brought back An Ran's longing for his friend.

In An Ran's 30 years of life, Lin Xing'er is an extremely important existence. The two grew up together, and their family experiences are very similar. Lin Xing'er is more unfortunate than herself. Her parents did not die early, but divorced , the two each formed a new family, but left Lin Xinger in the old house, grew up with Grandpa Lin, and never even came to see Lin Xinger.

What Lin Xinger liked most when she was a child was to run to her own house and eat the dishes cooked by her mother. Even if the dishes made by her mother were far inferior to the cooking skills of the Lin family's cook, she still ate with great relish and preferred to stay in An's house. Later, she simply moved to An's house , lived in the same room with her, until she went abroad to study, the two never separated.

They are friends, sisters, and family members. They understand each other and cherish each other. When they are saddest and lonely, they are always by their side, but now they don't know where she is?She disappeared inexplicably, and Lin Xing was in a hurry.

Seeing her in a daze, An Jiamu felt sour in his heart again, and said dissatisfiedly, "What are you thinking about?"

An Ran: "I think of a friend of mine, no, it should be said that she is a sister, and also my relative."

sisters?loved ones?An Jiamu's eyes flashed, and Lin Xing'er's disgusting face flashed in front of his eyes. His wife wasn't talking about the dead eunuch, right? "The friend you're talking about is a woman?"

An Ran gave him a strange look: "The sister is naturally a woman, you don't know, her medical skills are amazing, if only she were here, it would be fine, the master's hands will definitely be able to heal."

An Jiamu: "You said she was a doctor?"

An Ran nodded and said proudly: "He is the most skilled doctor."

An Jiamu hesitated and said, "Is it as good as your cooking skills?"

An Ran smiled: "Someone said that, saying that we are peerless twins."

An Jiamu's heart couldn't be more shocked. No one knows An Ran's culinary skills better than him. If according to An Ran's words, the dead eunuch is really her sister, isn't she the best genius doctor in the world? The eunuch has a sinister face, which is not a good thing at first glance.

Moreover, the young daughter-in-law clearly said that she was a woman, but that kid was a eunuch, so that didn't make sense. Even if he was really alone, I didn't want my young daughter-in-law to get too close to a dead eunuch.

It's just that how to hide the young daughter-in-law is really a problem. The dead eunuch would not let it go. He suddenly remembered the rumors in the palace recently, saying that the reason why Lin Xing was favored was because the emperor hated the women in the harem. Masculine, although this Lin Feng is an eunuch, he is exceptionally handsome, which is why he caught the eyes of the emperor.

If this matter is true, it would be fine, the emperor's rare people will naturally not be released casually, and I will turn around and listen carefully to my own, if there is a sign, I will find a way to add fuel to the flames, and it will become a good thing, then die Eunuchs don't even think about leaving the palace in this life, and don't even think about their own daughter-in-law.

Thinking too complacently, not wanting to fall into An Ran's eyes, An Ran couldn't help shivering: "You laugh so viciously, what are you thinking about?"

An Jiamu naturally wouldn't tell her, and shook his head with a smile: "I didn't think about anything, I just wanted to eat for dinner?"

An Ran thought for a while: "Jiayan likes to eat fish. At noon, I saw fresh silver carp fat head in the kitchen. The boss is tall. Call Jiayan over later. I will make it for him. I think he will like it."

An Jiamu couldn't help saying, "You're thinking about good words." This was a bit sour.

An Ran couldn't help laughing, this man is sometimes more naive than a child, so she coaxed him: "If I hadn't married you, maybe your brother wouldn't be able to eat my cooking in his life."

An Jiamu became happy when he said these words: "I know that you are kind to Jiayan Jiashu because of me and for your husband's gratitude." Saying this, she leaned forward and kissed An Ran.

The couple were joking again when they suddenly heard the servant woman outside say: "Master, Madam, Madam Xie has brought the two young masters, Haosi Haoyu, here."

An Jiamu frowned: "It's never noon, why is she here?"

An Ran: "That's what I said, she is your sister-in-law, if you come to visit, you can still get kicked out, not to mention, there is Haosi Haoyu."

The couple tidied up and came out. An Ran wanted to see what kind of tricks Mrs. Xie could play, but what about the adults, she couldn't get involved with the children. What's more, these two children were the blood of An's family, so she asked An Jiamu to take them with her. The child goes to the study to play.

I don't want to, but An Jiamu hasn't moved yet, but Mrs. Xie said first: "Sister-in-law, it was all my mother's fault before. I didn't restrain my servants, and it was all my mother's fault to embarrass my sister-in-law. Mother-in-law gave this to my sister-in-law. Sorry, the elder sister-in-law is like a mother. Although the elder sister-in-law is young, she is equivalent to a mother's elder when she marries an uncle. If you are still angry, you can beat me and scold me. Just don't hold it in your heart. What's going on in my heart, I'm kneeling down for my sister-in-law here." As she said that, she was about to kneel.

An Ran grabbed her back: "What are you doing? In front of the children, the two nephews might think that I'm bullying their mother. If you hate me in your heart, that's fine."

When An Ran said this, An Jiamu's face darkened slightly, and he led Haosi Haoyu out.

But Xie Niang hit the snake with a stick: "Sister-in-law is just for Haosi Haoyu's sake, so don't worry about it with Niang."

An Ran's eyes flashed: "I'm getting more and more confused when you say this, what's so annoying between you and my sister-in-law, not to mention, since I came, you've been considerate in every way, that woman's matter It has nothing to do with you, it's just that I'm not angry when I look at my low background, my sister-in-law understands."

Xie Yiniang was stunned for a moment, she never expected An Ran to have such a reaction, she had planned a long story, but it was hard to open her mouth, so she couldn't help but glance at her girl.

Chunqiao hurriedly said: "Ma'am, I don't know. Our wife hasn't eaten much these two days, and I haven't slept well. I just thought about coming to make amends to Madam, but I thought that Madam would have to compete with those famous chefs, so I was afraid of disturbing you." Missing Da Furen, it has been delayed until today."

An Ran took a few glances at this girl, she had seen it last time, she was the girl serving in front of Xie Shi, she was not very pretty, but her eyeballs rolled around, it was obvious that she had a heart.

I heard that the lady in front of Mrs. Xie was let go by Jia Yan, and I thought that this girl would take this opportunity to become Mrs. Xie's confidant, but she would see each other.

Mrs. Xie pretended to drink: "Don't back down, between me and my sister-in-law, you have no place to talk." The girl hurriedly lowered her head and took two steps back.

An Ran smiled and said: "Why are younger brothers and sisters like this? After all, I have only been married for a short time, and we are still a little unfamiliar with each other. After a long time, you will know my temperament. I am the biggest one, and I can also cook. , I never take other things to heart, no matter how big it is, I turn my head and throw it away."

Mrs. Xie was also smart, so she didn't bother with this matter any more, but smiled and talked about the daily life with An Ran, and the topics she chose were quite safe, and they all revolved around Hao Si Hao Yu.

After talking for a long time, I just stood up to say goodbye, but took the box in Chunqiao's hand and put it on the table: "When I got married, my family gave me a spice shop. Thanks to my uncle's care, I can support it. That said, I also learned how to make perfume when I was at home, although I am not an expert, but I can pass it, this is the incense made by my mother, please don't dislike it, sister-in-law."

"In this way, the sister-in-law will accept it." Only then did Mrs. Xie take the child back.

An Ran sent her out of the hospital, but when she came back, she couldn't find the incense box on the table, she couldn't help asking: "Where is that box?"

An Jiamu: "I asked someone to put it away."

An Ran knew what he was thinking, so she couldn't help laughing: "You are overthinking, even if she really wants to harm me, how can she be so blatant, not to mention, it's not worth it for such a big thing."

An Jiamu: "It's hard to tell what this woman is thinking, especially since she came out of Xie's family. Don't listen to what people say about the family. The door is full of dirty things."

Just as he was talking, Yue Jintang rushed over in a hurry, sat down, poured a cup of tea, and said: "Get rich, get rich, this year is really the God of Wealth, and the way to get rich is one after another. However, this I have to count on you girl."

An Jiamu's face was a bit ugly: "You have the ability to make your fortune, what are you doing with An Ran?"

Yue Jintang: "What you said is wrong. Without An Ran, how can this king get rich? Speaking of which, thanks to the reminder from the dead eunuch in front of the emperor, this king set up a gambling game in the village."

An Jiamu frowned: "You wouldn't bet on An Ran and Han Zizhang, would you?"

Yue Jintang chuckled and said, "As expected of Mr. An, you can guess right with just one guess."

An Jiamu's eyes flickered: "Who is the most pressured?"

Speaking of this, Yue Jintang became even more joyful, and said with a sly look: "This king knows which court officials have no discernment, thinking that Han Zizhang has the title of the best chef in the world, and they all beat Han Zizhang to win. An Ran is here Note, those who know the details, but compared to those royal families, it is nothing."

An Jiamu's eyes lit up: "It's indeed a chance to make a fortune, but if you cheat those royal families so much, you won't be afraid that they will settle accounts with you later."

Yue Jintang twitched his lips: "I would like to bet and admit defeat. How can I ask the banker to settle accounts? Is there any gambling product, not to mention that this king has put 1 taels of silver in."

An Ran couldn't help saying: "You are not afraid that I will lose, and you will lose all your money by then."

Yue Jintang shook his head: "If you lose, there must be something tricky, just like Han Zizhang's two moves, how can you be your opponent, I believe you." Then, he looked out the window: "Well, it's getting late, Shouldn't it be time to eat?"

An Jiamu said angrily: "I know it's time to eat, so I still haven't returned to your county palace."

Yue Jintang chuckled: "If you are willing to go to my place to be a cook safely, I promise not to enter the door of your Anfu again."

Yue Jintang has such a virtue, he is a piece of hob meat that can't be steamed or cooked, the couple have always had nothing to do with him, anyway, if there are more him, it's just a matter of having more chopsticks.

An Ran asked An Ping to go to the Minister's Mansion to ask An Jiayan to come over, and went to the kitchen to prepare the dishes. Gou Zi and Shun Zi woke up early. Liu Xier said that the two boys ran out as soon as they woke up, saying they wanted to visit the capital.

They came here for the first time, so it was unavoidably new, these two boys were clever, they were not troublemakers, so they didn't worry about it, but Gao Bingyi was honest and stayed to help An Ran.

While An Ran was cooking, he asked him about Qizhou. Gao Bingyi told him one by one, and when he mentioned Mr. Mei, Gao Bingyi said with a smile: "Sir, I don't dare to see the girl now, and I worry about it every day. I'm afraid that the girl will chop him off with a kitchen knife in a fit of anger." .”

An Ran couldn't help but smile. When she first found out that Mei Da was An Jiamu, let alone, she really had such thoughts. If it wasn't for Mr. Mei, such a respected and respected Confucian, how could she trust Mei Da with all her heart? .

He never thought that a person like Mr. Mei would help others to tell lies, and he told such a big lie that she married An Jiamu. It wasn't that Shangguan Yao was jealous of herself and uncovered the matter. Now she is still confused.

However, now that the matter is over, I really thank Mr. Mei in my heart. If it weren't for Mr., with my hatred for An Jiamu, how could I marry him? If I didn't marry him, the two of them missed it.

It is only now that An Ran understands that the fate of this person is quite rare, since it is destined, it should be cherished, if it is missed, it will be a lifetime of regret.

An Ran sometimes thinks that if there is no An Jiamu, I am afraid that there will be no Chef An today. She always thinks that she can live well on her own, but forgets that this is not a modern society after all. If An Jiamu didn't protect her overtly and secretly Well, the fire in Qizhou made him die unexpectedly.

What's more, there is Han Zizhang, who has a vicious heart. This kitchen business is mixed with the officialdom, and he doesn't have a considerable background. He doesn't know how he died.

Thinking of this, he said, "Actually, I don't blame Mr. for a long time."

Gao Bingyi said happily: "If Mister knew, he might come to the capital tomorrow."

An Ran also laughed: "If it's not tomorrow, it's almost too soon. The birthday of the Empress Dowager is also the Imperial Cook Competition. How could you miss this excitement?"

Seeing that Gao Bingyi had finished handling the fish, An Ran took it over. Because this Hualien fat head fish was big, weighing about ten catties, An Ran made a creative version of eating four with one fish.

The fish head is made of chopped pepper fish head, the fish bones and fish tails are taken out to make soup, the fish meat is made into a boiled fish, and An Jiayan’s favorite pearl fish balls are made, and a vegetarian dish is fried, served with a plate of stir-fried fish. Shredded pork.

After frying the shredded pork, An Ran stared at the pot in a daze for a while, then suddenly remembered that it was precisely because of making this fried shredded pork that she came here.

Speaking of which, she has nothing to worry about, except for Lin Xing'er, I don't know how she is doing now, let alone whether I can see her again in this life, An Ran suddenly feels that she has a lot of things that she forgot to tell Lin Xing'er, and she doesn't really know. Call her sister.

She is actually his elder sister. Although she has a poisonous tongue, she is also the one who protects and loves her the most. Unfortunately, she will never have another chance.

No matter how much Mrs. Xie struggles, Jiayan will always be An Jiamu's brother, and no one can change this. Moreover, due to the early death of his parents, the An family brothers are very close. , it is absolutely impossible to appear in Anjia.

Especially in Jiayan Jiashu's heart, An Jiamu is not only the eldest brother, but also takes the place of the father, supporting the An family and pulling out the younger brother, so the three brothers don't want to split the family.

The reason why Jiayan brought it up was because he saw that Mrs. Xie was not a fuel-efficient lamp. He was afraid that An Jiamu's temper would be in a dilemma, so he might as well grit his teeth and separate the family.

When An Jiayan proposed to separate the family, he felt very sad and guilty, but the words that Mrs. Xie asked in a panic completely chilled An Jiayan's heart, and made An Jiayan see clearly that her so-called good wife was just a woman. Fame is all, and I am more greedy than anyone else in my heart.

Because of Mrs. Xie, Jiayan doesn't feel guilty when facing his elder brother and sister-in-law. Hearing that Mrs. Xie came here today, he hurriedly asked, "Why is she here?"

An Ran laughed instead: "My family, what's new for younger siblings to hang out with, eat fish, I know you can't eat spicy food, this fish ball is specially made for you by my sister-in-law, would you like to try it?" Filled a small bowl and handed it to him.

An Jiayan's heart warmed up. Although An Ran's sister-in-law was young, she reminded him of his dead mother. Before his parents passed away, although An's family was not as rich as it is now, they did not have to worry about food and clothing, and there were cooks and servants at home.

But their mother likes to cook, and remembers their brother's preferences very clearly. Naturally, it is not as good as the sister-in-law's cooking skills, but the heart is the same, this is home.

When Mrs. Xie had never been in the family, I heard my elder brother say that she was virtuous and good at cooking, and I was looking forward to it in my heart. I hoped that Mrs. Xie could cook like my mother, but I didn’t want to. After a dish, she always took the airs of being the wife of the house, caring about fame and ostentation, but she never knew what her husband cared about.

After eating here and returning to the Shilang's Mansion, I suddenly felt deserted, even though it was only separated by a wall, and there were far fewer servants than the Shilang's Mansion, but as soon as I entered there, I felt comfortable, like a home , and here is the cold Shi Lang's Mansion, he sighed and walked to the study.

For the past two days, Mrs. Xie has gone to talk to An Ran every day. At least in the eyes of outsiders, the two sisters-in-law are very harmonious, but when An Yuan and his wife came over, Mrs. Xie became anxious. If I hand it over, wouldn't my wife, the servant, become a display.

At first I thought that my husband had changed his mind when he came to the main house, but instead of talking about it, he hurriedly said: "This housekeeper is the duty of the wife of the house, so there is no reason to hand it over to outsiders."

outsider?An Jiayan looked at her coldly: "Who is an outsider? An Yuan and his wife are old people in the An Mansion. When my parents were alive, they were in charge of the affairs of the mansion. Besides, have you forgotten, The expenses of the Minister's Mansion are all in the kilometers now, if you want to be in charge of the family, it is not impossible, and you will not spend a cent per kilometer from now on, this is your wife's ability to be in charge."

Mrs. Xie: "How can the master's salary cover the expenses of the house?"

"You also know that you can't support it, and you also know that our servant's mansion is entrusted with the money earned by my elder brother. If that is the case, what kind of family are you? To tell you the truth, this is what the elder brother said. If you don't ask you to be a housekeeper, you will be a housekeeper." Leave it to Anyuan and his wife, in the future, you don't have to worry about the personal contacts and expenses of the Minister's Mansion, and you will save a lot of things."

Mrs. Xie's face was very ugly: "Master, if you don't think about the relationship between husband and wife, you won't think about your mother's face. Don't you think about Haosi Haoyu?"

An Jia said: "If elder brother hadn't been thinking about Haosi Haoyu, how could he be in such trouble? You just have to rest assured, elder brother will never treat Haosi Haoyu badly." Putting the words aside, before Xie could say anything else, he turned around and left resolutely. .

Xie staggered and nearly fell to the ground, gritted his teeth: "It's all that bitch, bitch..."

Chunqiao hurriedly said: "Ma'am, you have to think about it, don't get angry."

"Want to open it? Why do I want to open it? This lady in charge can't even manage the house, and she is controlled by a servant everywhere. If it spreads out, others will not say anything, and I don't know how to laugh at me. Also, my father Mother, you are counting on me to help you, what should you do now?"

Chunqiao said: "Ma'am, you are already married, why do you still care about your natal family? No matter how much money the An family has, if the master knows that your wife has helped your natal family, I'm afraid he will not be happy, but don't worry, madam, you are always Mrs. Shi Lang." , and there are two young masters, the eldest lady over there has nothing. In terms of merit, the wife is still the first hero of the An family. In the hands of the two young masters, isn't it the same as returning to the madam, and at that time, if the madam doesn't want to do what she wants, no one can control it."

Xie's heart became active, besides, he has no other choice but to endure.

An Yuan's method is naturally unusual, but he never expected it to be so tricky. Only after this meddling did he realize that the monthly expenses of a servant's mansion are twice that of Jizhou An's mansion, and the accounts are not clear. Said that Madam sent away.

An Yuan had no choice but to go back and forth with the Elder Master. An Jiamu had expected this a long time ago. This Xie family was so greedy, so naturally she would not let go of the money she got. If she didn't want to embarrass An Ran, she didn't care about the money, but now it won't be cheap She waved her hand: "You don't need to check the previous ones. From now on, you will start to set up accounts, and change the people in the accounting room."

Only then did An Yuan take the order to leave, not only the accountant, but the entire servant mansion was unchanged except for the people in front of Mrs. Xie.

An Yuan was originally Liu Xi'er's master, but now the master's wife came to take care of the servant's mansion, but Liu Xi'er was very happy, and both sides ran more and more diligently.

Now the chief stewards of the two mansions are masters and apprentices, compared to when Xie's butler was the real family.

The servants in the two mansions now also understand that no matter how unwilling Mrs. Xie is, no matter how tempted she is, it doesn't matter what her family background is, if the old man married in with three matchmakers and six hires, she would be the eldest wife of the An family.

What's more, although the wife of the National People's Congress is not as good as the Xie family, she is a famous chef. If nothing else, she can compete with the number one imperial chef in the world. It is conceivable how powerful the lady's cooking skills are. After thinking about it, Who dares to be dishonest.

No one dared to make trouble again, and the two governments finally really settled down.

The queen mother's birthday is also here, and Mr. Mei came with the master the day before.

An Ran and his wife went out to meet him, Mr. Mei was still hiding in the car, he was like an old child, waiting for An Ran to pass and invite him personally, and Mr. Mei came down.

Seeing An Ran, she was still a little apprehensive: "You girl, don't you really blame the old man?"

"No wonder, An Ran still needs Mr. Xie Mei's big matchmaker, otherwise, where can I find such a wishful man."

Mr. Mei was startled: "Could it be that you girl tricked the old man into your house, and then took a kitchen knife."

An Ran nodded: "I have to take a knife."

Seeing that Mr. Mei's face changed drastically, Gao Bingyi hurriedly said: "The girl is using the knife to cook for the husband and the old man, not to chop people up." Everyone couldn't help laughing...
