Chapter 163 Eat and Drink
Chang Ke didn't even go back to Chunyin Garden, and came out from the grandma and went directly to Liuyin Garden, telling Wang Xi about this.
Wang Xi was shocked and said, "What do Shi Zhu want to do?"
"Maybe I want to help Chang Yan stand out?" Chang Ke guessed depressedly, "We haven't paid much attention to our third sister for a while. I believe some people think that they can get married like this, and their reputation will inevitably be damaged. If we can appear in front of everyone in harmony, her reputation will be preserved. Let's talk about her nothing, that is, we are petty and have no sisterhood."
Wang Xi sneered and said "spray" and asked Chang Ke: "What are you going to do?"
"I won't go to Princess Fuyang's hairpin ceremony." Chang Ke said lightly, "I didn't expect anyone to come when I went out. Is it a little late to send a round fan this autumn? Whoever wants to go!"
Wang Xi felt that Chang Ke’s words were reasonable and said, “You should do it right to do it on the Madam, so as not to be taken by others to tell the truth.”
If the word "filial piety" is suppressed, let alone Chang Ke, even the third wife will be criticized.
Chang Ke nodded and said, "I know. I came to you and asked the maid around me to go to my mother's place. With my mother's temper, I'm afraid I've already gone to the Grandmaster's place to ask for an explanation at this moment."
"That's good!" Wang Xi kept Chang Ke for dinner here, and said, "Stop anyone finding your place, you don't even have an excuse. You'll be a guest at least when you have a meal here."
Chang Ke smiled and said, "Then let's not bother the second master in one thing. I'll invite Miss Pan to have a meal. I'll borrow flowers to offer Buddha and use your kitchen to make a few dishes. How do you taste it?"
She cherished her marriage with Wen Zheng very much. Thinking that the Wen family is prosperous, there are many people and many relatives. The girls and sisters-in-law are even more likely to be compared. Although she was born in the Marquis' Mansion of Yongcheng, her father was a concubine and still was white. Now she is just relying on her family that she has not yet separated from the Marquis' Mansion of Yongcheng. She is called "the lady of the Marquis' Mansion" when she walks outside. If she wants to be able to gain a tense position after marrying the Wen family, she must have the skills to show off.
Chang Ke took a fancy to Wang Xi’s kitchen skills.
Food is interesting to share with others.
The Wang family’s cooking skills are not private.
Wang Xi not only asked the cook on her stove to tell Chang Ke to cook, but also personally guided Chang Ke at the stove. He even sent someone to inquire about Wen Zheng's taste and specially ordered a recipe for Chang Ke. He also joked: "You can keep it as a heirloom treasure. But remember to tell them when it is passed on to your children? This is given to them by their cousin of the Wang family."
Chang Ke's face was so ashamed that he blushed and he chased Wang Xi for a while.
Nothing can't stand being "serious" or "diligent"? Although Chang Ke's time in cooking was short? But he had a foundation, so he made rapid progress? The Huaiyang cuisine he made was really interesting.
Wang Xi naturally responded happily and sent ginkgo to invite Ms. Pan. He also said, "I think you should learn two specialty snacks? As long as you are a woman, there is no one who doesn't like desserts. If you encounter one of the ten thousand who doesn't like sweets, you can make her a delicious snack? In short? It can't be stumped."
Chang Ke laughed and said, "Look at what you said, it seems that the Wen family is in a tiger's den, so I don't believe it. You are here to guide me? I can't even get a job on the stove."
"That's it!" Wang Xi said shamelessly, "If you want to do business, there are many talented people in the world, and our family dare not be called the top one? But if we talk about food, our family must be the top one."
Two people say one sentence? I’m talking nonsense? Chang Ke feels that the anger I’ve been suffering from the lady’s wife disappears? The mood is getting better again.
Miss Pan came a little late. When she came, Chang Ke had already gone to the kitchen.
She has been "serving" with Mrs. Hou these days, but everyone knows that Mrs. Hou is pretending to be sick. Ms. Pan helps Mrs. Hou take supplements at Mrs. Hou every day, but she doesn't move much, and her face is round.
Wang Xi and Chang Ke came to call her, and she couldn't wait to come like a bird released from the cage.
"Then you came so late." Wang Xi didn't believe her and joked with a smile, "You must be talking about socializing to make us happy."
Miss Pan was afraid that she would gain weight any more, so she would tie her dress and dance every time she came here.
While she was dancing, she said, "What am I coaxing you to do? I watched it for a while."
Wang Xi opened his eyes wide.
Miss Pan panted and said, "I heard that Miss Shi was going to take Chang Yan and A Ke to the palace to participate in Princess Fuyang's hairpin. Miss Shi was also an intermediary to let Chang Yan and A Ke put aside the past? It is said that the third wife was so angry that she ran to the Madam's place to curse and sneer, which made Madam so angry that she lay down and asked my aunt to preside over justice. I sent off my sick aunt and stood at Madam's place for a while before coming over."
Wang Xi immediately asked with concern: "Who won?"
This is related to whether Chang Ke enters the palace or not.
Miss Pan pursed her lips and smiled, "Of course, the third wife and my aunt won, otherwise I would have come so straightforwardly?"
When Wang Xi heard the sound of Zhiya, he hurriedly said, "Then my sister Dai Ke thanks Mrs. Hou and Sister Pan."
Miss Pan smiled and said, "You can't speak empty-mouthed. I don't want anything else. Just give me some of the pendant yellow buds you treated me that day."
"You really dare to think about it!" Wang Xi said with a smile, "I only brought a few taels of tea here. I was almost finished drinking it. At most, I would only pack a small bag for you to taste."
After they got to know each other, they found that they both had a cheerful temperament. The more they talked, the more they became more and more speculative, and their relationship became more and more diverse.
Wang Xi really only bought a small handful for Miss Pan.
While yelling about Wang Xi's stinginess, Ms. Pan asked her close maid to send the tea back to Chunyin Garden immediately, and then she had dinner in Liuyin Garden.
The plate of spicy chicken made by Chang Ke made Ms. Pan praises her. She drank glutinous rice, osmanthus round soup, and then fanned her hands into her mouth and shouted that she couldn't stop being spicy.
Chang Ke laughed loudly, feeling very accomplished.
Princess Fuyang's Chaili Shizhu took Chang Yan with her. Chang Yan was feeling a little depressed. The Han family didn't know about it and thought it was rare and decent. When she came to Yongcheng Hou Mansion to deliver the furniture list, she heard it and went back to tell the people of the Han family that Miss Han also gave Chang Yan a gem-golded temple flower.
Wang Xi and Chang Ke privately said, "It's a pity that Miss Han, a flower was put in the wrong place."
Chang Ke didn't say anything. When he thought of the Liu family and Liu Zhong, he felt that Miss Pan's in-laws seemed not a kind person.
She couldn't help but sigh.
When Princess Fuyang put the hairpin ceremony, Shi Zhu brought Chang Yan into the palace, and Wang Xi and the others drank osmanthus wine in the willow garden.
The golden wine is served in a transparent glass, like flowing gold, but the taste is a bit spicy.
Wang Xi said: "It will take a few more days to bury it, which shows that you still have to listen to the master's. The aged wine and fresh osmanthus this year must be buried for 60 days before it can be opened. But it will be a lot different if it is less than ten days."
Miss Pan liked this taste and said, "I think it's okay. It's more mellow than many osmanthus wines sold on the market." And she loves this color more, "It's pleasing to the eye. It's better if you can embellish something."
Chang Ke also liked this color and said, "It looks like gold foil. Why don't you put some wolfberry in it? Or something green."
"It must be that wolfberry looks better." Wang Xi said, "But wolfberry that has been soaked for a long time will make the wine red and affect its color. If you soak it in temporarily, it will easily sink to the bottom of the cup. This is really a technical job. I'm afraid you have to find a master who is good at brewing."
Miss Pan took another sip of wine while they were talking and said, "I think it's useless to find the old master of Shanjiu. I have also drunk a lot of good wines from a century-old brand in Jiangnan. Maybe it's quite a bit like you. You can't make it, and others may not be able to make it."
Wang Xi was praised and was very happy. He talked about her brewing wine in Sichuan with Miss Pan and Chang Ke.
Ginkgo was protruding his head outside several times.
Wang Xi found an opportunity to take her to the yard and talk: "What's wrong?"
Ginkgo smiled embarrassedly and said, "It's nothing. It's just that Lord Chen asked Wang Xi to bring you over and said we'll keep you underestimate you, so don't let you go anywhere today."
Isn't this an accident?
Wang Xi was puzzled.
Baiguo said, "It was the one who brought the letter and didn't tell Wang Xi anything. Wang Xi didn't know what happened. But Wang Xi also said, Lord Chen is not the kind of person who speaks nonsense. Since he has given such instructions, we'd better tell you."
Wang Xi privately told them to coax Wang Xi to stay at home as Chen Luo said, and she felt that there was no need to tell Wang Xi.
Anyway, seeing Wang Xi like this, it doesn’t look like he is going out.
Wang Xi was still thinking about adding something to the golden osmanthus wine. He thought that the ginkgo couldn't understand and waited for her to ask Chen Luo tonight, but she didn't take it seriously. She turned back to the house and talked about brewing with Miss Pan and Chang Ke.
Miss Pan also said to Wang Xi: "You have to brew so well, why not hold a banquet during the Mid-Autumn Festival and invite some friends to come to your house to play?"
She felt that this would help Wang Xi gain a reputation and a good relationship for Wang Xi's marriage - among their in-laws, Wang Xi's marriage was not settled.
Chang Ke also felt it was good and said, "Even if you think it's troublesome to treat, this osmanthus wine should be placed in the gift list, and each family will give some."
Wang Xi really thought about this. However, when she was in the Wang family, she helped her grandfather make wine. It was the first time she brewed it alone. There were not many wines. If she wanted to give it to someone, she could only find a way to work on the wine bottle, and each family tried to get a little bit of it.
They discussed what kind of wine to use.
When they had something to do, time always passed quickly, but until they had dinner and decided to put the bottle of wine in the wine, the updater had already started to make updates. Shi Zhu and Chang Yan, who went to the palace to participate in Princess Fuyang's Chaili, had not come back yet.
The lady said, "This is impossible! The palace is about to be locked."
Madam Shi was also worried, but she could only comfort the lady: "I'm afraid Princess Fuyang has something to say to Miss Shi and keep them for a while."
