"Uncle," the kitchen steward stood in front of Rong Xia with a bitter look, "I'm afraid the little ones won't be able to make that snack for a while."
"Huh?" Rong Xia was watching "The Journey to the North", and when he heard the steward's words, he looked up at him, "Why?"
"To sit on this snack, you need to soak the Yuqian Longjing noodles with dust-free snow water, season with rose honey, the utensils for the noodles need to be specially made, and the steamer must be made of newly grown Xiangfei bamboo, and half a spoonful of morning flowers should be added to the water for steaming the snack. Lu, when the dim sum is about to be cooked, you need to burn a small piece of sandalwood, and it is a small matter to sit down this dim sum, and I am afraid that the collection will not be complete in a while."
The kitchen steward secretly complained in his heart. Uncle has never been a big appetite. This time it was rare for them to make a snack in the kitchen. They still couldn't make it. I don't know where this dim sum recipe came from. It's not dim sum, it's white money.
"It's so complicated," Rong Xia understood a little why Ban Hua was so reluctant to make a snack. For such a time-consuming thing, I'm afraid that Jingting Hou's mansion is not made every day. "In that case, let's put it first..."
He paused for a while, and then said, "Put things together first and think about it slowly."
Seeing that the uncle didn't want them to do it right away, the steward breathed a sigh of relief. From last night to today, the people in the kitchen have thought of all kinds of ways, but they don't taste that way. It seems that those things that burn money can't be saved.
The steward even suspected that the person who gave this recipe had ulterior motives and wanted to bring bad uncle.
After the steward left, Rong Xia closed the "Northern Journey" in his hand, not knowing what to do with the four books for a while. In fact, he could have spread the manuscript and won the praise of scholars all over the world, but...
Profits are easy to get, but sincerity is hard to find. For a simple-minded family like Jingting Houfu, he has a feeling that he doesn't want to live up to it.
Rong Xia smoothed out the corners of the book. Since Jingting Hou's residence has never disclosed the existence of these books in recent years, he just doesn't know it. This beautiful golden house, let them lie here quietly.
The family members of Ban who gave away a golden house were very busy, because the birthday of the eldest Princess De Ning was coming, the family members of Ban were busy checking the guest list, checking the various dishes of the banquet, and various suitable opera troupes sent by the steward below. Juggling team.
Don't have bad birthdays, don't have a festive appearance, don't have negative topics, filter them down layer by layer, and don't have zodiac signs. These stewards have been selected once, but they still have to see it once.
The eldest princess is reluctant to let them be so busy, but the four members of the Ban family don't think so. As long as the items do not exceed the regulations, they don't care about gold and silver. is jealous. When you are old, in your heart, everyone wants their family to value them, which makes it lively, but on the surface, you have to educate the younger generation, not extravagant, not too public.
So they not only envied the eldest princess, but also felt that the Ban family was a little too rambunctious. It was just a birthday, and making such a big noise was too much.
But no matter what other people think, the Ban family members themselves are quite happy. They run to the eldest princess' mansion three or four times a day, making the eldest princess smile all day long, and the whole princess mansion is immersed in laughter and laughter.
"The best crab meat is used. If I don't have any good tea, I will go to the emperor to ask for it." Ban Huai is a bachelor and has a thick skin. Qianlongjing also often goes to the palace to ask for it, so this tea is also homophonic to Yuqianlongjing.
"Yes, no for nothing," Yin Shi marked the twelve taels on the back of the tea leaves. "If he wants fame, we want benefits. If we don't go, maybe he won't be happy."
"Twelve taels?" Ban Heng glanced at it, "Mother, do you want so much tea leaves to boil tea eggs?"
"I don't want him even a pound," Yin Shi put the list to Ban Huan, "You go with your father." In terms of being likable, her daughter is better than her husband. The emperor is very happy, and he likes to be praised by others the most.
Ban Hua glanced at the list. In addition to the twelve taels of Royal Dragon Well, there were also incense and royal chefs. She put the list on her body, "Don't worry, I promise to complete the task."
Ban Huai glanced that it was still early, and said to Ban Hua, "Good girl, let's pack up and enter the palace."
One and a half hours after lunch, Emperor Yunqing always had a leisurely time listening to music, drinking tea, and taking a walk. When he heard the eunuch reporting that it was the Marquis of Jingting and the Lord of Fule County asking for a meeting, he touched it. Beard, guessed the intention of the father and daughter.
"Xuan."
After the father and daughter entered the hall, they saluted properly and took their seats.
Sure enough, after three or five sentences, Ban Huai began to cry poor, to the effect that he was incompetent as a son, and his mother couldn't prepare something good for her after her birthday. I beg Your Majesty to give him a fat shortage. Let his mother's face light up and her brows raised.
Emperor Yunqing almost threw the tea in his hand on Ban Huai's face. He had to change to a really poor one, and he had to be a fatter one. Besides his good cousin, who else would dare to say that in front of him
"Shuiqing, now that my aunt is old, I know that you have always been filial. It's better to spend more time with my aunt. What are you missing? Just tell me, my cousin will help you find a solution," Emperor Yunqing said. Looking at Ban Huai with a sincere face, "My aunt is my elder, and I want her to live a beautiful and beautiful birthday."
Ban Hua immediately clapped her hands and said, "Father, my daughter thinks that His Majesty is right, why do you have to work so hard to be a errand, we still have His Majesty." After speaking, she got up and blessed the emperor, "My minister thanked His Majesty. grace."
"You girl, what did your family say thank you?" Emperor Yunqing enjoyed the look of worship and trust from the younger generation very much. With a big wave of his hand, he rewarded Ban Hua with a bunch of tributes from his affiliated countries some time ago.
Outside the Dayue Palace, Prince Jiang Zhang walked to the door and saw Wang De standing outside: "Director Wang, I have something to ask the emperor to see, and I ask Manager Wang to pass the message on your behalf."
"The slave and maid have seen His Royal Highness," Wang De explained after seeing the prince and salute, "Right now Jingting Hou and Fule County Master are visiting His Majesty."
"Is my cousin here too?" The prince really liked Ban Hua, because Ban Hua was so cute when he was a child that he was picky when he saw the sisters in the palace. This princess' eyes are not as good-looking as Ban Hua's cousin, that princess His skin is not as tender as his cousin's, but fortunately, he has a benevolent personality and never shows it. He treats the princesses from these concubines equally, so he didn't give Ban Hua a wave of hatred in the palace.
"Yes." Wang De didn't dare to talk indiscriminately. People in the palace are best at chasing the wind and shadows. It was a matter of no shadow. The prince asked casually. But bad.
The Crown Princess is the eldest granddaughter of the Prime Minister of the Right. She is dignified and virtuous, quite like the future mother of the country. The Lord of Fule County has a noble status and is the granddaughter of the eldest princess. Naturally, he will not be the concubine for the prince. What is going on in the middle? The prince and the County Lord of Fule have nothing to do with them. dead.
Just thinking about this, the father and daughter of the Ban family walked out. Seeing the smiling face of the Fule County Lord, Wang De knew that the emperor must have rewarded the County Lord again.
"His Royal Highness." When Ban Hua saw the prince, he greeted him with a blessing.
"Cousin and cousin don't need to be more polite," the prince said with a hand. "Last time Qiuhun didn't have much time to have a good conversation with my cousin. If my cousin has time, I'll go to the East Palace and sit for a while."
Ban Hua smiled and said yes, but she didn't think so in her heart. She went to the East Palace to hang out because she was crazy. The women in the East Palace were like guarding her like a thief, and they didn't know what was wrong.
The prince was in a hurry to see the emperor, so after saying a few words, the two sides said goodbye to each other, and then Ban Hua met someone who was not so welcome.
The second prince Jiang Luo.
