Chapter 418 Want a cook

Along with Wen Jiuxiao's letter, ten jars of wine were sent to Marquis Wu'an's mansion. Of course, they didn't set off together. Wine is not easy to transport, and a careless wine jar might break, so walking slowly on the road, they were added. The urgent letter to catch up.

  Mrs. Hou received two family letters from her third son at once, so she naturally read the first one first. She was very surprised to see that her daughter-in-law had produced rare wine.

   What kind of wine will the third daughter-in-law make if she talks back to the number one?

  Ms. Hou doesn't believe it. Nine out of ten, the third child who dotes on his daughter-in-law puts other people's credit on her and puts gold on her face.

  However, don’t care if it’s made by the third daughter-in-law, since the third wife said so, then in her place, the wine is made by the third daughter-in-law. The son and daughter-in-law are eagerly sent to Beijing to honor themselves, this kind of filial piety is still very useful to Mrs. Hou.

  The third child said in the letter that the wine was to honor her and Master Hou, but Mrs. Hou decided how to divide the ten jars of wine in an instant. She only planned to share two jars with Lord Hou, and then one jar with the boss. As for the second and fourth, she was reluctant to give a whole jar.

"The wine jar is too bulky, so it's not good to give as a gift. Xianglan, you pick two exquisite wine jugs, fill a jug of wine, and send them to the yards of the second and fourth masters. The third master didn't get much. Let's all try it."

  Two bastards, the family can be dismissed with one pot. Mrs. Hou doesn't think she's stingy at all, she's just a concubine, just taste it, what else do you want? God?

   Besides, wine is such a precious thing, what does it matter if you drink it yourself? She wants to keep the gift. The third child is working abroad, and she is still so far away from the capital. She has to help maintain some relationships in the capital?

  After Madam Hou read the second letter, the expression on her face became more complicated. The daughter-in-law is happy, so she is naturally happy. But the son asked her for a cook as soon as he opened his mouth. One was not enough, at least three were needed. Just for his wife to eat!

  It's normal for a woman to feel anxious and unable to eat. Who didn't come here at that time? Just get through those few months.

  The third child is fine, looking for a cook all over the world. He pampered her as always.

  Mother Wang actively helped out with ideas, "How about choosing one from the big kitchen?"

Mrs. Hou shook the family letter in her hand, "Your third master doesn't want it, saying that his wife doesn't like the dishes cooked by the cook in the house." After a pause, "One is not enough for your third master to ask for three, this is not a problem for me Is it?" Where is she going to find three cooks for him?

  Mother Wang hurriedly persuaded, "Who told the third master to kiss you? Otherwise, I wouldn't have written a letter to ask for help."

   "That's what you said." Doesn't Mrs. Hou love to listen to the third child because she is closer to her? Although the family letter was sent to Hou's mansion, the content inside was written for her, and Hou Ye didn't have anything there.

Mother Wang looked at her face, and said again: "Third Master didn't know when Young Master Zhou Zhou was born earlier, this one in the third young lady's stomach is actually the first time that Third Master has experienced, and Third Master is in his early twenties. , can you please hurry up?"

  She had a smile on her face, "Isn't it the cook? Why do you need to worry about it, madam? This old slave can take care of your worries, not to mention three cooks, even ten or eight, this old slave can find them too."

   "You old **** is really good at bragging, turn around and slap me in the face to see how I punish you." Madam Hou pretended to blame, but there was a smile in her eyes. She also talked about it, but she really didn't take it seriously. Can't even find a few cooks in the dignified residence?

   "If the old slave does a good job, Madam, do you have to reward the old slave?"

   "You old man, you keep talking more and more vigorously."

  Mother Wang deliberately made a joke, which made Mrs. Hou smile.

   "Okay, I'll leave this to you." With salt and wine, Mrs. Hou laughed and handed over the task of finding a cook to Mama Wang.

  Wine was a rarity in the Daqing Dynasty. It was only available in the palace and paid tribute to it. Except for the favored concubine and the ministers, everyone else only heard his name but didn't know his flavor.

   Don't think that Wen Chengzong is the eldest son, he has never drank wine. After receiving a jar of wine, he opened it and tasted it immediately. He is an elegant person, and every wine has matching wine utensils, let alone precious wine?

   What kind of luminous cups, golden jars and jade bowls, Wen Chengzong really has them, and there are several sets.

   This taste was amazing, and I was so excited that I wrote several poems.

   "I don't know where the third child got such a good thing? It's just too little." It looks like a lot, but it's actually not enough for him to drink a few times.

  Qin Yushuang's eyes flickered for a moment, and she seemed to say unintentionally: "There should be more at my mother's place. I heard that ten altars were sent to Beijing."

Wen Chengzong said: "Father, the second brother and the fourth brother share one share with the close relatives. Even if there is, it will not be too much. I will write to ask the third brother where he got it. Shanyun County is near the sea. Eighty percent of them came from overseas." There was envy in his tone.

  Qin Yushuang smiled, but remained silent. She was also envious, when her brother-in-law was going to take a post in Shanyun County, she felt sympathetic, after all, it was a desolate place with poor mountains, bad waters and tough customs.

  Who would have thought that my brother-in-law would be so lucky that he would produce seawater sun-dried salt as soon as he arrived in Shanyun County. Not only did he earn a lot of money, but he was also rewarded by the emperor. This time I sent precious wine to the mansion again...

  How can such an idiot like the third sibling have such a good life?

The couple in the second room were also envious, especially the Su family, who were particularly dissatisfied, "Why is there only one jar in the eldest brother's yard, and we only have one pot here? I heard what the servants said, and saw that there were ten jars in the storeroom. That's why we are so partial, partial."

  Wen Chengyao also knew that his aunt was eccentric, but what could he do? You can't make a fuss over something like this, can you?

   Seeing that he was silent, Mrs. Su moved her eyeballs, and said: "Father should have more. If the second master doesn't have enough to drink, then go to find father. Father loves second master the most."

  Wen Chengyao's heart moved, and he really had this idea. It's best to get more money back. He invited his friends to drink and put them on the table. It would be a face.

  As for the fourth room, the husband and wife are real people. One is not taken seriously in the mansion, and the other is not from a high family background. How have you ever seen wine? I was flattered to get this pot.

  Wen Chengan was reluctant to drink, and prepared to honor his father-in-law. His own father didn't see him, but his father-in-law taught him a lot. Of course, he is also grateful to Wen Jiuxiao, the third brother. He whispered to his daughter-in-law, "Third brother treats me well, pack up some things, wait for the mansion to send someone to Shanyun County, and take them with you, it's more or less our wish."

   "I'll save myself." Liu knew that her husband's errands were arranged by the third brother of her husband's family, so she naturally had a good impression of him.

  The wines from Shanyun County were not only sent to the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion, Yu Guangxian and the Prince's Mansion also got ten altars.

  Of course, Yu Zhi was given to her best friend, the princess Zhang Jingwan, not the prince.

  Naturally, she did not hide the news of her happiness. Both Yu Guangxian and the princess were happy for her. Together, the two of them packed up a dozen carts of things, including more than 30 bellybands for babies.

  Yu Zhi was dumbfounded when he saw it. Does this mean that one is changed every day, and the quantity is one month?

Thank you for your recognition of Hehe. In fact, Hehe has been writing articles for several years. Hehe is really buddhist. of. thank you!
