Chapter 97: Pickled Vegetables
The title of Da Chen is not hereditary. When an official reaches a certain level, he will most likely be awarded a false title, which will appear decent.
But from another perspective, this title is not as weak as it is. If you are in a mansion like Duke Bo Hou, which one is not a real power person who is still in the world?
They all rely on the royal family to make a living, and no one knows who doesn’t know anyone.
"Our family is a family friend of the Yang family. A few days ago, I went to the garden with Mrs. Zhongqinbo to enjoy the plum blossoms, but I didn't listen to her mention. I was so tight that I would like to see her next time, I would have to say it carefully."
Mrs. Yongping Hou came back to her senses from the shock and patted Zhai's hand with a smile.
Zhai smiled back without saying anything.
Xie Jingyi put her heart back in her stomach. She felt that today was even happier than her father's promotion.
She was always worried, afraid that Zhai and Xie Baolin would be like a lamb who had entered the mouth of a tiger, and were deceived by the wife of the Marquis of Yongping and ate the bones without leaving any remaining.
Now it seems that she completely underestimated her own father and mother.
There was a solution to the problem so soon! Since Zhai dared to say it out in public, it should not be a false thing!
As for who Yang Hao is?
Xie Jingyi thought over and over again that she remembered all the lives of the court in her previous life, but Yang Hao was really unimpressed.
But no matter whether he is promising or not, he will block the Wen family's big pit first and let Xie Yujiao marry him!
If Yang Hao really has a big problem, it wouldn't be too late to make plans!
Xie Jingyi was so happy when she thought about it. She glanced at the table and had an idea. She carefully selected a piece of fat meat and put it in the bowl of Mrs. Yongping Hou.
"Grandma, this meat is fat but not greasy, and it is like a living thing. This is the essence of the meat, and the delicious taste of the side dishes are cooked into the meat, simmered slowly in the low heat and melted in the mouth. After eating it, the skin is not only smooth, but also prolongs life. Look, when it shakes, it is crystal clear, like running water, and what you take is the meaning of longevity and longevity, which is the most suitable for grandma!"
Mrs. Yongping looked constipated. God knew that she was a person who ate meat and liked to stew fat meat in a pot, and then only ate lean meat in it. What she hated most in her life was this kind of dish that would shake when she clamped it!
She looked up and was about to refuse, but she saw Xie Jingyi staring at her with anticipation!
That look, it's like if you don't eat it, it's not kind, and if you don't eat it, it's a huge opinion of me. It's a snake and scorpion's heart that will poke me to death with chopsticks next!
Mrs. Yongping Hou pursed her lips. She was famous for being kind and kind in the capital.
"Jingyi is so filial." She said, picking it up and taking a bite. The flesh really shook in her mouth, like a living thing, making her stomach churn.
Xie Jingyi smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed, then picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of goose meat for Zhang.
"Uncle, I'm a newcomer, and I don't know what you like to eat. I think you prefer beets just now. The goose meat is fragrant and is made of honey. I think it should suit your taste."
Zhang's face turned pale and he squeezed out a smile, "Jing Yi is indeed filial."
After saying that, he stared at the goose meat in the bowl and became restless.
Xie Jingyi smiled in her heart, but she didn't show her face.
In her previous life, she struggled in the mansion. With her pair of sharp eyes, she carefully observed the preferences of the people in the mansion, in order to please more and let them show mercy when they talk to their two sisters.
But what are the results?
The skill of the previous life cannot be wasted, and it is also enjoyable to disgust them.
Some people were dying for a long time during this meal, and naturally some people were ate happily. Almost half of the dishes on the whole table were in Xie Jingyi's stomach until she felt her belt was a little tight and stopped.
If I eat it again, Chai Youchen will give her a tiger next time, I am afraid that it would be a big belly tiger... I dare not think about it or not.
Thinking of Chai Youchen, as soon as he arrived in the capital, he led Chai Gui away in a hurry without even saying hello, which was really infuriating.
...
When I returned to Chuntangyuan, the moon was already in the sky.
It was vaguely possible to hear the singing from the churchyard.
Chai Youchen might have gone to somewhere in the night of gold and was so drunk that he was so drunk that he was so drunk that he was so obscene. Xie Jingyi glanced at the wall and thought with contempt.
The family entered the inner room, went to the big cloak, sat in front of the fire barn, and then relaxed.
"My mom, what's going on with the big sister's marriage? How about Yang Hao? Why have you never heard from my father and mother?"
As soon as she sat down, Xie Jingyin couldn't help but ask loudly, "I have only lived there for a day and I remembered the good things in Hangzhou. The dishes are so salty and even the soup is salty. Isn't the salt in Beijing cheaper than in Hangzhou? I just want to eat some eight-treasure duck, chestnut braised chicken and the like... I will have to stay here for so long in the future. Just thinking about it, I think I'm too difficult and life is simply boring."
"My mom, tell me quickly, otherwise it will be too difficult for me..."
Zhai slapped Xie Jingyin on the head, "Tell me well, you child, you rarely have a good face, why are you thinking about eating!"
Xie Jingyin howled, "I don't even want to think about eating, what else can I think!"
Zhai looked at her helplessly, "It's nothing. It's already happening. I thought about going to Beijing to see you before making a decision, so as not to delay your sister. But... today your father sent me that, and said he agreed."
Zhai said, patting Xie Jingxian's hand. Xie Jingxian was already ashamed at this moment, and everything from her neck to her ears was red.
"Good kid, my mother, I only value three things in my life. The first is your father's career, the second is your brother's imperial examination, and the third is your sister's belonging. A man must have the ability to live with him. The daughter's family is like reincarnation. My mother does not seek wealth and honor, but seeks good character."
"Then Yang Hao's father has inquired about it before. He is also a scholar and has a gentle temperament. He is suitable for you. After a few days, we have settled down in the capital and will arrange for you to meet you. Yang Hao's grandfather is an old friend of the prince. Yang Hao's father is a fellow disciple and a Jinshi of the same period."
"The Yang family has been full of scholarship for generations, and the family style is still good." Zhai said, shaking his eyes with some guilt.
She heard of these things. They had just arrived and had never seen Yang Hao at all.
Xie Jingyi narrowed her eyes and patted Xie Jingxian on the shoulder, "Haha, sister, please relax. This is better than someone else's not wanting it, throwing it away."
Xie Jingxian was staggered by her and almost fell to the ground, coughing violently.
Zhai gave her a blank look, "Jingyi, don't beat my sister out of internal injuries! What else do you want to throw away? Do you think that Wen's surname is trash?"
