Chapter 627 This master is so reliable!

Among the rewards brought back by the good news just now, there is a four-fold Kang screen that is very good. It is a double-sided embroidery made as a tribute from the south. On one side is the five blessings and longevity, and on the other side is the green mountains and green waters. It is very exquisite.

The good news was originally intended to be placed on grandma’s bed, but the old lady borrowed flowers to offer to the Buddha and took them out as a birthday gift.

When I arrived, my family only brought a cake to the door, which was a bit too simple.

Secondly, this is one of the few times that the Li family shows up in Xindu, so it is not easy for others to laugh at them for being stingy.

The meaning of this kang screen is just right. It came from the palace, so no one can find fault with it, and it can also show the royal family's care for the Li family.

Jiayin pouted, and when Mrs. Li saw her, she guessed that her granddaughter was reluctant to part with her, so she hugged her and said with a smile, "Is our little money lover feeling sick again? Wait until grandma tells your uncle that if he encounters a good one in the future, he will buy another one." I'll pay you back."

“That’s not true!” Jiayin leaned into her grandma’s arms and acted coquettishly, “I left this for grandma, and all good things should be given to grandma. I feel bad for giving them to outsiders!”

Mrs. Li felt warm after hearing this, pinched her granddaughter's chubby cheeks, and said, "Fu Niu in our family is the most filial. Grandma knows, then let's change her. Your uncle brought back a lot of good wood from the south, why not Choose one as a birthday gift.”

Jiayin quickly waved her hand, "No, no, I'll just give you the kang screen this time. I'll buy grandma a better one later."

"The wood must be kept. If Grandpa Zhang and the others find out, I will be in trouble! Grandpa Zhang must make me memorize medical books until I am eighty years old!"

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

This time, the family’s fleet came back from the south and brought a lot of good wood, all of which were carefully selected by Li Zhensheng.

The climate in the south is humid and hot, which is suitable for the growth of trees. There are also people from several nearby countries selling wood from their hometowns.

Li Zhensheng found an opportunity and bought a lot at one time, and then transported it back by water. He spent a lot of effort on the way.

The uncle and nephew almost missed the Mid-Autumn Festival for this reason.

Most of these timbers were used to build the Earl's Palace and the Princess's Palace, and the rest was divided among the elderly at home.

Orange Mrs. Li, Doctor Zhang, the village elders, Uncle Zhao, and even Mrs. Liu all kicked Liu Zhiheng out and came to grab a piece.

For no other reason, they all want to make longevity materials.

Posthumous affairs are what the elderly worry about the most.

A good coffin can make them feel at ease and less afraid of old age and death.

Although Li Zhensheng promised to bring back more in the future, the old people still looked at the few pieces left at home like eyeballs.

They waited until the Earl's Palace and the Princess's Palace were completed and the carpenters were free, and then began to build their "home" after their death.

If you use wood at this time, Jiayin, the favorite of the group, will definitely turn into a meat pie in an instant...

After dinner on the second day, everyone dressed up and set out.

Tao Hongying brought good news, and Grandma He and Shui Ling were also waiting on her.

Because Mrs. Wen was pregnant, in addition to Sister-in-law Qiong, she also brought an extra Aunt Tian.

Orange Mrs. Li and Wenjuan were at home and did not follow them.

After all, this is the first time we are traveling with the Jia family, and we are not close enough to go to celebrate birthdays with the whole family.

Furthermore, Mrs. Li was a first-grade imperial edict, which was two levels higher than the imperial edict of the longevity star today. If it had been the case in the past, she would have taken over the throne.

There is also Wenjuan, although she is the eldest daughter-in-law of the third room in the Li family, her wife is valued by her husband, and there is no title or honor in the family fun. Such entertainment will not be taken seriously.

Moreover, she is pregnant and has a big belly, so the family must always keep them in mind...

A birthday greeting may seem casual, but in fact there is a lot of human kindness and sophistication in it.

Sitting on the carriage, Tao Hongying wanted to understand the twists and turns. She straightened her back unconsciously and secretly thought about how to slowly find a few talented apprentices and hand over the private dishes.

Now that the family is doing better, they don’t need the little money she earned. Instead, she was about to start going out to socialize as a fourth-grade general's wife and the princess's mother.

She cannot embarrass her husband and daughter just because she is a cook.

As for her interest, she can concentrate on thinking about new dishes, and then let the restaurant launch them after she has thought about them.

The few cookbooks her daughter gave her were enough to keep her entertained for several years.

 Thinking about it carefully, it seems that any problem is no longer a problem as long as I have my daughter by my side...

She couldn't help but look at the fat girl opposite who was chirping and laughing with Mrs. Wen, her eyes full of love and pride.

Jiayin was talking about the business of the dim sum shop, when suddenly I saw it and my heart went crazy. My first thought was...

She seems to have stayed out of trouble in the past two days?

The carriage kicked all the way into the city and turned directly to the snack shop.

When I woke up early, the shop received the news.

I heard that my master is going to a birthday party and I plan to bring a birthday cake as a gift.

Chen Xi and Shopkeeper Peng were extremely excited.

Before the business opened, the owner started soliciting business.

This master is so reliable!

You know, this is the first time the birthday cake has really appeared in front of the world.

Chen Xi simply tried his best, baking the cake base, whipping the cream, and decorating the flowers, almost all by himself.

By the time Dejiayin and others arrived, the cake was already ready.

It is a large double-layered cake with a diameter of two feet. The upper layer is decorated with peaches presented by the longevity star, and the lower layer is decorated with flowers.

The painting of the longevity star is so lifelike that the wrinkles on his clothes and the traces of his beard are clearly visible. The longevity peach in his hand is pink and white, just like a real peach.

The flowers on the lower floor are in clusters, with different colors, bright purples and reds, so lively.

This is definitely a style that the elderly like, it is festive and has a good meaning.

Having read the good news, they praised it a few times, making Chen Xi and shopkeeper Peng beam with joy.

When the cake is made, it is placed on a large white porcelain plate.

Get a special wooden box, put the cake in from the side, twist the buckles, tie with ribbons and decorative flowers, and you're done.

Jiayin thought for a while and asked shopkeeper Peng to pack some snacks and four small cakes for her.

After everything was done and the sun was rising outside, everyone rushed to Jia's house.

The second wife of the Jia family was welcoming guests at the Chuihua Gate. She was finally expecting Mrs. Wen and the Li family to arrive, but she was so happy that she hurried forward to greet them.

"Oh, Jinrou, you are here. If you don't come, my neck will stretch out!" She has a cheerful and fast-talking personality, and she is smiling. Not to mention Mrs. Wen, even Tao Hongying is a little less nervous.

Mrs. Wen took her hand and introduced Tao Hongying and Jiayin to her.

Tao Hongying is fine with it, but Jiayin, the princess, is too valuable.

Mrs. Jia was about to salute, but she was stopped by Tao Hongying, who said with a smile, "She is just a child, and she is here today to congratulate the old lady and feel happy. Don't be polite, Mrs. Jia, just treat her as an ordinary junior."

Jiayin also smiled sweetly, saluted, and called out, "Second Madam, how are you doing?"

“Hey, hey, the princess has really insulted my wife, hurry up and invite her in.” Mrs. Jia Er felt how easy-going the Li family was and she smiled like a flower.

She had been worried all night, fearing that this new member of the Li family would be difficult to get along with for the first time.
