Lingquan after kitchen

Chapter 64
"Yes." Steward Qian saw six people with more than a dozen entourages, a total of more than [-] people. The entourages were all carrying packages. It seemed that they would stay for at least a few days. Be prepared and don't neglect your guests.

Duke Ding came over with big strides and asked, "Xiaoqian, do you still recognize me?"

Steward Qian hurriedly bowed and saluted, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, send my regards to the old Duke."

"This is my son, my daughter, my three great-grandchildren, and my granddaughter." Duke Ding proudly pointed at his son, daughter, and great-grandson, and said, "My lord, please let me bring them to live here for a while."

Steward Qian didn't know Dongfang Xuanyi's intention of inviting the two families, so he said with a smile: "My son must have seen that the Duke is lonely, so he invited you to talk with the Duke."

Duke Ding opened his mouth with only a few teeth left and laughed loudly, saying: "I haven't seen Duke Guo since the new year, and I miss him very much. This time, I can see him every day and listen to him." teach."

When Ouyang Jinhua entered the mansion, he took off his veil to reveal his face, lowered his eyebrows, and did not look around to look at the mansion.

Steward Qian really felt that the surrounding area suddenly became quiet. Seeing that the servants in the mansion were all staring in one direction, he turned his head to look, and saw the girl in a pink skirt next to Ding, whose skin was as beautiful as snow. With a quiet and elegant demeanor, he looked a little like Xiao Deng who had passed away for many years, and he couldn't help but get goose bumps all over his body.

He has seen many beautiful women in these years, but none of them are as beautiful and dignified as Xiao Deng.

"Little Qian, return to your soul!" Duke Ding yelled carelessly into Steward Qian's ear.

Duke Ding said with a smile: "My great-granddaughter looks like a fairy, even Xiaoqian is dumbfounded."

Steward Qian actually had tears in his eyes, and murmured a little out of composure: "I thought Madam is back. Ms. Ouyang really looks a bit like the first wife of the Grand Duke."

Dongfang Xuanyi's complexion changed slightly, and he looked at Ouyang Jinhua. When he saw her for the first time, he felt like a familiar person.No wonder she gave him such a heavy laxative that he couldn't feel resentment, so there was such a reason.

Even though Mrs. Ding lives in seclusion, she has heard about Mrs. Deng's misunderstanding of her innocence by Dongfang Ding, so she returned to her natal family to give birth to Dongfang Xuanyi and died with resentment. She felt full of sympathy for Mrs. Deng in her heart.Can't help but said: "I have met Mrs. Deng once, she is really a peerless beauty, but it's a pity that the concubine died early."

Ouyang Jinyu said: "My sister is a bit like Aunt Deng, and I have become righteous brothers with Brother Dongfang. Our two families are really destined."

Ouyang Jinhua's cheeks were slightly flushed by everyone's attention, and he turned his face away to look at the thick and towering ginkgo tree with yellowed leaves, and said softly: "I think it's very good here, it should be good if you stay for a few days."

"I'm still afraid that you will feel bored. If you like it, you can spend a few more days." Dongfang Xuanyi said with a little tenderness in his voice, "There is no kitchen in my yard, so I'll ask someone to make two kitchens for you. for human use."

"Don't be so troublesome, just use the kitchen in your house." Ouyang Jinhua rolled his eyes at Dongfang Xuanyi, and said softly, "I'm a guest, and you still let my people cook in the kitchen?"

Dongfang Xuanyi smiled and said: "I don't want my father to taste your cooking, let him know that my foster brother has a sister who is unparalleled in cooking."

Ouyang Jinhua gritted his teeth and said, "Obviously you want to eat it, and you're doing it under the banner of the Duke."

Dongfang Xuanyi's tiger eyes shot out, he laughed a few times, and asked Ouyang Jinhua to go ahead, and said: "I have to thank the prince, without him making such a fuss, you wouldn't come to my house to get me something to eat. "

Ouyang Jinhua Wan'er said word by word, "Thank you."

"I'm sorry." Dongfang Xuanyi said the words that had been brewing in his heart for a few days.

"I won't forgive you for that." After Ouyang Jinhua finished speaking, he walked forward.

Dongfang Xuanyi smiled wryly and followed, really wanted to ask her how she would forgive him, but it would appear that he was insincere, so he had to take his time.

If Steward Qian couldn't see the meaning in Dongfang Xuanyi's eyes and couldn't hear the flattery in his words, he would be blind and deaf. He excitedly called two sharp-mouthed servants, and said in a low voice: "Go to the military camp and report to the Duke. There are distinguished guests at home. The son of the world has a good impression of Miss Ouyang. "

Ouyang Jinhua walked all the way and looked at the courtyard scenery.Xindao: As expected of the Duke's Mansion, it is much bigger than Ouyang Mansion in Chang'an, and the trees are also very old. The ginkgo trees at the gate just now are at least 500 years old, showing their heritage everywhere.

"I've been back to Chang'an for nearly half a month, and I stayed in the mansion for less than twelve hours." Dongfang Xuanyi didn't think the Duke's mansion was big before, and now he didn't even reach his yard after walking a hundred steps. Said: "I only know that the yard with the martial arts training ground belongs to the old man, there are more than a dozen big pomegranate trees in the yard when my mother was alive, and the yard surrounded by a green bamboo is the temporary residence of the princess and her two children. The big ginkgo tree, and the bird's nest on the tree is my yard."

Steward Qian said with a smile: "Master, after you left the mansion yesterday, the Duke asked the princess to bring the second son and third lady to live in the princess mansion."

"If the princess is here, why would I come back today?" Dongfang Xuanyi snorted softly, obviously he invited the two families over after knowing about it.

Everyone went to the main hall of the courtyard and sat down to have tea. Dongfang Xuanyi asked Steward Qian to invite Ouyang Jinyu to choose a room.

In the courtyard with five entrances, the first entrance is used to receive guests and have meals, the second, third, and fourth entrances are for the host and guests, and the fifth entrance is for servants to live in.

Last time Dongfang Xuanyi found a random room to live in, this time he lived in the second courtyard with Ouyang Jinyu.Duke Ding Laojun and his son lived in the fourth courtyard.

Ouyang Jinhua and Ouyang Jinfeng were arranged to live with Ding in the courtyard of the third entrance, sandwiched between the second and fourth entrances, so that they could take care of them.

This time Ouyang Jinhua came here to take refuge as a guest, so he only brought Xiao Tong, Xiao Cheng, and Mrs. He. The three daughters went to the kitchen of the Duke's mansion.

The four cooks in the kitchen of the Duke's Mansion are all fireworkers who have retired from the military camp. The oldest is in his 60s and the youngest is in his [-]s.

The four of them are masters at making big pot meals for the march, but they are very ordinary at making small stove dishes. To be able to stay in the mansion for so long, one is loyalty, two is duty, and the third is that Dongfang is not picky about food.

The four of them had already received Steward Qian's order, knelt down and kowtowed to salute, and said very respectfully: "The little man kowtows to the young lady."
