In the middle of the room was a large round table with black lacquer and a few identical black lacquer-intact mica stone rose chairs.

This was originally specially ordered by Chen Muqing.

If you use a square table, you have to determine the primary and secondary according to your status. But today's situation is too special, so she really doesn't know how to determine it. For example, Qin Wei's wife is a superb according to her husband's rank and should be the first. But in recent years, Qin Wei's Xianfu was at home, how could she be as popular as Hu Xin, a cabinet minister. There is also Liu Jin's wife. Although her husband is just a small commander in the Five City Command, there is a legitimate sister who is the queen... After thinking about it, she set up a round table in the house.

Li accompanied Hu Xin's wife to the east, and the others sat around casually. Feng, the wife of Liang Yuan, Dingyuan Hou, was also sitting while sitting, looking at her with a smile.

Behind Mrs. Liang Yuan stood a round and smooth girl with white skin and snow, a head taller than Chen Muqing. She looked like a fair-aged girl, but her face looked very tender, probably about the same age as Shen Muqing. She was slightly hunched over and looked very restrained.

It should be Liang Youhui, the youngest daughter of the Liang family.

Chen Muqing thought, bowed his knees and saluted several wives.

Hu Xin's wife smiled and said, "Come on, let me see this virtuous girl - she actually kept her home in order." The last sentence was for Li.

Li smiled slightly, and had no intention of answering. Chen Muqing could only walk over with a smile, bowed his knees and saluted Mrs. Hu Xin, respectfully shouted "Old Lady" and said, "This is the old lady's love!"

Hu Xin's wife smiled and then continued to Shen Muqing's hand, turning her head to Mrs. Zhao Fu sitting beside her, saying, "I am so obedient to you. I dare not say that what I have experienced has eaten more salt than you, so that's not a big deal. I'm only twelve years old this year, and I can stand alone. Only the wife of Qin has this kind of demeanor when she was at her parents' home."

The wife of Qin is the title of the legitimate concubine of the current emperor, the emperor's younger brother, King Jin. Her maiden name is Lin, and her wife is a cousin of the same clan as Hu Xin.

Now, Li had to come forward to socialize.

She looked at Chen Muqing with a smile and said modestly: "She is young and has more things to learn. How can she compare to the wife of Qin... The wife of Qin is the wife of the Empress Dowager himself. She has outstanding figures and quiet character. She is a virtuous person selected from thousands of people. If we girls are half as outstanding as the wife of Qin, I will thank God, Amitabha."

When Chen Muqing saw this, he was busy expressing his statement: "There is a mother in charge taught by the wife at home. I just follow the old routine, and it is not as good as the wife said. Speaking of which, the wife always mentions your young grandmother in front of me, saying that not only has a good appearance, a gentle personality, and is filial to you, but also has ideas at home and abroad, so that I can learn from her young grandmother."

Hu Xin had only one son, who died early, leaving behind a grandson with a posthumous daughter. He married the daughter of Liu Yushi, Hanlin Academy three years ago, and gave birth to a son the next year. The family was in a very harmonious life. Chen Muqing happened to scratch the heart of Mrs. Hu Xin, and her wife was so smiling that she couldn't see her eyes: "Oh, why did she just have such a clever mouth? The people who say it are warm in their hearts. I don't know who has the blessing to marry her!"

Several ladies laughed.

Liang Youhui looked at Chen Muqing curiously with her big eyes.

Li smiled and said, "I am the only daughter, so let's keep her by my side for a few more years!"

Mrs. Hu Xin disagreed: "The daughter is the mother's lace, so she naturally can't bear to leave her. She is too old to be a mother. Staying here and there will be disasters, and you should care about it."

Chen Muqing didn't expect the topic to be around her marriage. To be honest, she felt that she was still young and had never considered this issue. Although she really wanted to hear what Li would say to these wives, she was not suitable for listening to these words as she was in the name of the boudoir. She pretended to be shy and lowered her head and said, "Madam, I, I'll go and see how many dishes there are." After that, she didn't raise her head and was about to quit.

There was a burst of joking laughter coming from the room.

Mrs. Liu Jin quickly pulled Chen Muqing's hand and said with a smile: "Don't bother girls, girls, it's all our elders who are unrestrained."

Chen Muqing was pulled by Mrs. Liu Jin and stood there with a red face, looking like she couldn't move forward or retreat.

Zhao Fu's wife came forward to rescue: "Okay, okay, the girl from the Liang family is still here and can't find a companion!"

Mrs. Liu Jin laughed and pulled Liang Youhui over, saying, "Youhui, go with Miss Shen quickly - let's say something freely." That tone was very skillful.

Her words made everyone laugh again.

Liang Youhui blushed and looked at Feng. Feng nodded before she saluted the ladies and followed Chen Muqing out of the blue yarn cabinet.

The two of them surrounded by maids and daughter-in-law and went to Anyuan.

Along the way, Liang Youhui lowered her head slightly and watched her toes walking.

Chen Muqing had to take the initiative to greet her: "How old is sister this year?"

Liang Youhui's voice was like a mosquito: "I, I am thirteen years old today."

"Sister is older than me." Chen Muqing smiled, "I was born on the ninth day of the year. I don't know when my sister's birthday was."

Liang Youhui heard this and smiled shyly: "On the tenth day of the first lunar month."

"Ah, if you were born one day earlier, you would be one year older than me." Chen Muqing was very surprised.

Liang Youhui nodded with a blushing face.

The two of them fell into silence again, but fortunately Anyuan was here, so Chen Muqing lifted the curtain himself and asked Liang Youhui to come in.

Liang Youhui didn't go in any case: "How can I ask Sister Ji to set a curtain for me?"

Chen Muqing had no choice but to let Zhuji put the curtain on it and took the lead in the house.

"How do girls know my nickname?" Chen Muqing invited Liang Youhui to sit down on the big kang next to the window in the east room.

Luo Mei hurriedly served tea for Liang Youhui.

Liang Youhui looked at the teacup of the white-fat pastel fishing house in front of him and whispered: "I heard my grandmother talk to my mother, and I knew that my sister called Jie Jie... Do you want to call you girl..."

Chen Muqing raised his eyebrows in confusion: "Why did the girl say this?"

She said embarrassedly: "I know you are all from the south, I, I am from the north."

Chen Muqing then realized it and smiled and said, "We are now in Kyoto, and we are also considered northerners."

Liang Youhui seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and smiled at Chen Muqing. Her expression was very gentle and quiet. Coupled with her tall and plump figure, she looked a bit like a Bodhisattva on Dunhuang murals.

Chen Muqing smiled and was about to greet her, Luo Mei stepped forward and reported, "Girl, where is the food?" Chen Muqing looked at Liang Youhui and sought her opinions: "Anyway, there are only two of us, let's eat on this kang, warm up?"

Liang Youhui nodded: "It's all I can listen to my sister."

After hearing this, Luo Mei immediately ordered the meal to be served.

The rough woman brought it to the table.

One is made of ham, mushrooms, deer tendons from winter bamboo shoots, one is fried with yellow croaker on both sides, one is made of cauliflower head simmered with tender pistils of cauliflower, one is made of tender chicken chicks steamed with sweet wine and autumn wine, and one is made of chicken and duck balls made of wild duck breast meat mixed with broth. They are filled with small plates of white-haired pastel Magu’s birthday, and two bowls of rice in the snow were served.

The falling plums are placed on the side.

Chen Muqing ordered her: "Let me put another shark fin in the kitchen - the girl is from the north, and this is the time to eat hot pot."

Liang Youhui waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no. That's fine. There are so many customers today, so we shouldn't bother. And I see the dishes are very exquisite." As she said that, she seemed to be afraid that Chen Muqing would not believe it, pointing at the deer tendons, "This is my favorite food."

"Since the girl likes to eat, then eat more." Chen Muqing picked up the ebony chopsticks beside her and picked up a piece of deer tendon and put it in the small gold plate in front of Liang Youhui.

Liang Youhui thanked him quickly, and brought up a small plate and took a bite in a literary manner.

Her fat hands held a small plate, making her look even more plump.

Chen Muqing smiled and winked at Ying Fan, who was standing beside him. Soon, the shark fin was served on the table.

"Girl will do it!" Chen Muqing said politely.

Liang Youhui seemed very uneasy: "Why is this good, how is this good?"

Chen Muqing smiled and said nothing, and he diligently picked up vegetables and scooped soup for Liang Youhui.

At the beginning, Liang Youhui was still a little restrained. Gradually, she relaxed and she swept most of the cauliflower stewed meat.

Chen Muqing was very surprised.

Even if ordinary people like it, they will keep a few copies in such occasions...

She kept silent and laughed: "I heard that there is a snack called "Danbusuo" in the auspicious and blessed place. It is very delicious, but I have never eaten it before..."

Liang Youhui showed joy: "I said why is this dish so delicious? It turns out that your family invited Jixiangfu to make a bun kitchen... Not only is their family delicious, but they also have a kind of Lahu sauce that is dipped in steamed buns and vegetarian cakes, so delicious that it even needs to swallow the tongue..." As he said that, he swallowed a little bite as if he had recalled the deliciousness of Lahu sauce.

Chen Muqing smiled and called Luo Mei over: "Go, tell the kitchen to make a dish, and ask if there is any rahu sauce, and then make a few vegetarian cakes."

The falling plum leaves in response.

Liang Youhui smiled at Chen Muqing's eyes and said, "It was my grandmother who ate it on her 60th birthday. I asked Bizhu to study. Oh, Bizhu is the eldest maid next to me..."

Chen Muqing looked at the maid who fell from the red gold and Ruyi beside Liang Youhui.

The maid stood there with her eyebrows down, and her eyebrows didn't move at all.

"She asked her to go to study, but what she made was not as delicious as Jixiangfu. I don't know why... I thought, it must be because of the different ingredients, so I specially asked Sister Zijuan beside my grandmother to help find..."

Chen Muqing saw the maid raise her eyebrows gently.

“What was done was different…”

Chen Muqing smiled and socialized with her: "Since it's a signature dish, there are naturally some tricks in it. If someone can learn it, how can auspicious people gain a foothold in Kyoto?"
