But now Lu calls Uncle Li Chao.

Because my son is now studying with Li Chao, and Fang Yiai and Taipinglang are both emperor son-in-laws, Li Chao and Fang Xuanling are prime ministers in the same palace, so it is appropriate to talk about friendship among peers.

Mrs. Fang is a powerful woman, very polite. She came over to talk to the conversation and then said goodbye with a smile.

Carrying the tea made by his wife, Fang Xuanling said to Li Chao, "Erlang is studying with Wenyuan for a short time now. Although he has gained a lot. This child is much more sensible. I regret not sending Dalang to Wenyuan to study at the beginning! I think, when Sanlang Silang becomes bigger, they will also ask them to study under Wenyuan."

Li Chao is very capable of teaching and educating people, which is recognized in the court now. The children of the honorary ministers are a little difficult to control. First, they have no time, and second, these children are born with good backgrounds, and they are inevitably a little arrogant and most people cannot control them.

But sending the child to Li Chao is completely different. No matter whether your father is the prime minister or the general, it will not take long to obey the post. The most important thing is that Li Chao can not only manage the child, but also teach it well. If the child goes to his name, it will be very different in less than half a year, and it will be better.

He is obedient and much more sensible.

Therefore, many ministers of honor and relatives now want to send their children to Li Chao, but most people want to send them away, but Li Chao doesn't accept them. There are already many children of honor and relatives under his name, and they can't care too much.

However, it was Fang Xuanling who wanted to send the child over, but Li Chao could not refuse.

"My teaching children is also a sheep-herding style. In fact, Fang Xiang's family tutoring is also very good. Moreover, the court has Chongwenguan Primary School in the East Palace. Fang Xiang sends the children there to study. During the holidays, it is the same for letting the children come to me to attend classes together, so that they will not delay them."

Fang Xuanling also felt it was good and nodded and thanked him immediately.

"I'm going to invite Wen Yuan over today. Actually, there's one more thing."

"Please tell me." Li Chao was a little curious. Fang Xuanling didn't say anything in front of him, and insisted on beating around the bush like this.

"I heard that Wen Yuan is choosing a son-in-law for Ling Mei, and I also want to get married to the Li family. My Dalang is a suitable age for your Lan Niang. I wonder what Wen Yuan wants to do?"

Fang Xuanling's proposal surprised Li Chao a little. Originally, Li Chao wanted to choose a husband for Lan'er among Cheng Chumo and others. However, Cheng Chumo and others felt that they were too familiar with Lan'er and treated her as their sister. The age difference was large, so this matter had never been decided.

Now Fang Xuanling suddenly came out and proposed marriage for the eldest son, which was really surprising.

Fang Yizhi is a few years younger than Cheng Chumo and the others, and a few years older than Lan'er. He is indeed more suitable in age.

"Does Sister Lu know about this?"

"This is what she means," said Fang Xuanling.

Li Chao smiled and he could hear it. It was probably what Mrs. Fang said, and Fang Xuanling made this proposal by listening to his wife.

This is a good thing.

The Fang family has a good family tutor, and he is also familiar with Fang Yizhi. A smart boy, even a little precocious, very steady and intelligent. In history, he should have taken the daughter of the Du family of Jingzhao, that is, the niece of Du Ruhui's clan. Fang Yizhi later ascended Fang Xuanling's Duke of Liang and became the Minister of Rites.

Unfortunately, he later had a disagreement with Fang Yiai's brothers. This disagreement was entirely because Li Shimin's strange daughter, Princess Gao Yang, was provoking her. She first wanted to split up her family, but later she wanted to seize the title, and falsely accused Fang Yizhi of being resentful and rebellious. Li Shimin found out the facts and scolded Gao Yang. Later, Gao Yang instigated her husband to participate in the rebellion case, and the Fang family was eventually confiscated, Fang Yiai was executed, Fang Yizhi was also implicated, and his title was removed from his father's sovereignty, so he was able to save his life for the common people.

Some people say that Princess Gaoyang failed to rebellion, and it was Fang Yizhi who personally reported the sister-in-law.

Li Chao felt that even if this is true, it would be nothing. If Fang Yizhi did not report and the matter was exposed, the Fang family would probably be completely gone.

"I wonder if Wen Yuan is willing to make this marriage?"

The Fang family took the initiative to propose marriage, which is a good thing. However, Li Chao was also a little worried. The Li family now has many in-laws. The eldest sister Lian'er has been married to Wei Zheng's eldest son. Wei Zheng is now the chief secretary of the Secretariat and is also considered an important official in the court.

The eldest son and daughter were both decided to leave by Li Shimin.

The second son of the legitimate son married Cui Gan, the daughter of the Huangmen, the parent of Cui family in Boling, the third son married Sun Fujia, the fourth son married the daughter of the Ministry of Works, the daughter of the Ministry of Works, the fifth son married the daughter of the Wang family in Taiyuan...

Now even the second sister, Prime Minister Fang Xuanling, is interested in getting married.

The Li family’s in-laws is a bit too powerful.

Li Chao himself married two daughters of Cui Zheng, and Li Chao was worried that Li Shimin would be very jealous.

"Li Chao is extremely honored that Sister She can take a fancy to Fang Xiang and Mrs. Lu. I agree with this matter very much, but I have to go back and ask my father for instructions on this matter, and also listen to Lan Niang's thoughts. If they don't object, then our Li and Fang families will get married."

"This is a matter of course. I will come to visit General Li in person." Fang Xuanling said.

If the Tang Dynasty wants to choose a family that most wants to marry, the Li family will definitely be ranked first. Getting married to the Li family is neither as lawful and restrictive as getting married to the royal family, nor as demanding as being with the wealthy families of the five surnames and seven sects of Guandong or Guanlong families.

The Li family is the most popular emerging wealthy family, with a seven-game rank in the Li family. The Li family is not rich in wealth, and Li Chao is the most popular minister in the dynasty. The Li family has a wide connections. They don’t want to accompany their daughters to marry, but they have to give a million yuan dowry. The marriage gifts given by marrying a wife are even richer. Those who can marry the Li family are also top-notch families. People don’t care so much about money, and they are more interested in the Li family’s limelight, reputation and connections.

Mrs. Fang, Lu, originally considered marrying Du, Jingzhao, who was also the prime minister's family, Du Ruhui and her husband were both servants, and Du Yan was also a censor. Moreover, Jingzhao, Du, was a famous family in Guanzhong for hundreds of years.

However, Du's wife is not that suitable woman, and she can't pick a suitable one after another. Li Chao's second sister, Lan'er and Mrs. Lu, have seen her several times. She often visits Li's house and is often this girl. Under Cui's discipline, this girl is very knowledgeable and polite, and looks like a lady from a famous family.

In other words, the Fang and Li families are both prime ministers and are both important officials in the court. Li Chao's sister is quite suitable to marry Fang Xuanling's son.

What Mrs. Fang particularly likes is that Lan Niang has good ethics, good looks, character, and Nu Hong’s cooking skills are also very good. After going home and discussing with her husband a few times, she came up with today’s proposal for marriage.

After receiving Li Chao's reply, Fang Xuanling was very happy.

It is too difficult to marry a daughter of the five surnames. Fang Xuanling, as the prime minister, was looked down upon by them. Some of the five surnames are willing to marry, but some of them have to accompany the family wealth, which can be moved by millions. The Fang family has been rich now, but why should the Fang family pay the money in a low voice? If the five surnames are authentic, such as Cui Gan, Zheng Shanguo, and Cui Junchuo, they are willing to marry Fang Xuanling by paying some money, but why did he spend money on the sidelines?

However, the Li family has a reputation and status, and it looks pretty good in all aspects. The two families are both good, and women are also good in all aspects, which is exactly the perfect match.

"Come on, play chess." Fang Xuanling took out the chess box in a good mood.

Li Chao put the teacup aside. He hasn't played chess with Fang Xuanling for a long time. Today he can play a few games.

Fang Xuanling was in a good mood, but he couldn't stop playing chess. He killed Li Chao and lost even after losing. Li Chao wanted to regret the marriage.

Others regret losing chess, but Li Chao lost so much that he wanted to regret marriage. This old house turned out to be much more skillful than he expected. Today, he accidentally revealed his true face.

After a long time, Li Chao failed to win a single game.

"Oh, it's getting late, it's time for me to go back."

It feels really bad to be slaughtered all the time. Anyway, Li Chao made an excuse to leave, but Fang Xuanling pulled Li Chao and kept him for dinner.

"Today Lu cooks in person, you must stay for dinner."

With such kindness, Li Chao couldn't leave anymore.

After collecting the chess pieces and serving tea again, the two chatted for a while, and the Lu family sent someone over there to treat them to dinner.

The food at the Fang family is very simple.

Two meat, two vegetarian soup, one meat dish is fried whale meat and one beef jerky, and the vegetarian dish is bean sprouts and radish, and one kelp soup. Such a simple four dishes and one soup, I can't imagine that it is the food of the Prime Minister's family.

The Fang family did not eat in the same large table as the Li family, but had a separate seat. Each person had a small meal, and each table had four dishes and one soup. The portion was quite small, almost enough for one person to eat, so it would not be wasted.

The Fang family has many rules for eating. When the master eats, the concubines don’t have the chance to serve. Fang Xuanling actually has several concubines, all of which were rewarded by Li Shimin. Although Lu was once jealous of this, the person stayed in the end. However, seeing their standing beside him and serving him, it can be seen that their status in the Fang family is very average.

"Everyone says that Li Xiang is a gourmet. Today I cooked a few dishes, which is considered as a big axe in front of Lu Ban's door. The dishes are not as good as the taste. Please take care of Li Xiang." Lu said with a smile.

"Mrs. My sister-in-law cooked in person. Li Chaosan is lucky to have sex. When you see these dishes, it tastes very homey."

"You eat first and then praise it!" Fang Xuanling said.

Li Chao picked up the chopsticks and picked up the bean sprouts from the chopsticks and found that the soybean sprouts were very crispy, just cooked, and the saltiness was moderately salty. After eating a little radish, the very light radish slices were found. Once you tasted it, you would know that the radish was cooked after boiling water.

Light and refreshing.

I tried the fried whale skin and jerky again, both of which were good, and the kelp soup was also very good.

Several dishes tasted lighter, simple but good.

Li Chaoda praised him, and Lu was very satisfied.

"Last time I went to visit Li Xiang's mansion, Thirteenth Lady gave me a recipe from this article. I came back and practiced it for a long time, and now I finally got it."

Li Chao laughed, but unexpectedly, it turned out that Lu had become his own cooking disciple. No wonder the taste of this dish is so familiar!
