Entering the palace was just around the corner, Wang Wei's home seemed to have been separated into two parts. One part was pure relaxation, the other part was pure nervousness, and the old lady didn't even mention that she didn't care about her second granddaughter at all. She did not expect her granddaughter to be grateful to her for these gifts.

The old lady called Wang Rong He over. "Are you bored staying at home?" Tell your little sister to come and talk to you at home. "

"Mother has been busy with the matters of my second sister recently. Second Sister-in-law and I can pass the time just by learning to smell good. " Wang Rong He was moved, but she had to invite people to set up a feast, it would definitely alarm the officials and trouble Lady Cui to arrange it.

"But you haven't seen your little sisters for a long time?" the old lady said.

"Let's wait for sister to enter the palace first." Wang Rong He said.

"She went into her palace. You played with her." "I know you are the most impatient."

"Go and write a post, pay it back from Grandmother, and don't go through the government." The old lady said, "You don't need to trouble your mother. You've also been a housekeeper for several years, let's see if you can manage a small feast by yourself."

"Grandmother says I'm like a monkey." Wang Rong smiled as she leaned on the old lady, "Anyway, even if I can't handle it well, my grandmother still has someone to help me."

"Then now that you're married, grandmother will still be able to help you." The old lady laughed.

"If you're married, you won't be Grandmother's granddaughter? If you marry your grandmother, you won't care about me? " Wang Rong said in a spoiled manner, the old lady laughed and caressed her face. It's not that people don't like you, but you personally brought a person with you, someone who cares deeply about you.

Wang Rong He did not have many close friends, only three close friends. Wei Lingzhi, Tang Tang'er, and Ning Xue didn't know. Tang'er's father was a bit older than his father and was the commander of the Imperial Guard. He was also the daughter of the Minister of Revenue. Wei Lingzhi and Ning Ning had already married a year ago, and even Tang Tang'er, who was a year younger than Wang Rong, had an engagement.

The four of them still went to Tan Tuo Temple together to get to know each other. Nowadays, women were trapped in Cheng Zhu School, and they would not step out of the door unless they wanted to, especially when they were young ladies. In their entire lives, they had only gone from the square frame to the square frame. Even so, going to the temple was a must every year, and they had to go there several times a year.

The four of them occasionally met at Tan Tuo Temple and looked at each other weirdly. They had been in contact with each other for the past few years, so they agreed to go to Tan Tuo Temple together. When they were 14 years old, they started to learn to be stewards.

Wang Rong's letter would be back soon and would arrive at the appointed time. Wang Rong and Thoughtless put away their post and went to prepare for the banquet.

There were naturally plenty of places for people to dine in the mansion, but it was completely useless for Wang Rong and her to just drink tea and gossip with her best friends. Wang Ronghe's yard was no bigger than the other girls', but there was a triangular corner between her yard and the old lady's. The old granny had her people set up a small garden there that she said was meant for strolling, but the old granny's courtyard was large to begin with so this garden was actually built for Wang Rong and her family.

Wang Rong and her friends were in this little garden.

The servants reported that the young miss would be having a banquet in the little garden in three days. Lady Cui was thinking about what kind of head she should wear when she brought her daughter to the palace, so she said with some disdain, "At this time, why would she set a banquet? She even comes to add fuel to the fire. This is either someone coming out of a belly, or someone who isn't considerate. "

The servants said that they would allocate the money from the old lady's courtyard and would not leave the government. Lady Cui snorted coldly.

"Alright, then let someone from the Xi Family to help her. I don't want to say that my mother was slow with her. " The Lady Cui said. If there was joy, then she would be the one to raise the horses. Normally speaking, his wife could only be a rough wife, but that little daughter-in-law was very ambitious, being able to help out everywhere and become a servant in the courtyard of Lady Cui. It was just that there were many wives in the front, and the Lady Cui only knew that there was such a person in the courtyard, but didn't use her.

Sister-in-law, do you have anything to pay attention to when I'm on duty for the first time?

"What do I like about being a wife?" One of his wives asked.

"Since Madam wants you to help the Eldest Miss set up a feast, you have to ask her how she likes it." The roommate despised this ring because it was small, but he didn't want anything for free. He took the ring and left after saying a few words. Since Madame has ordered you to work for a girl, you will naturally not be used if you do your best. I just want to see if you can understand this.

"That's what you need to do," she said to Shardbearer, who didn't care who she sent to do the job. It wasn't the first time Wang went to a banquet, and she was familiar with the process, so Shardbearer took out a piece of paper and said, "This is what you need to do."

She took it over to have a look, but was embarrassed. She couldn't read. Shardbearer soon noticed that his wife was becoming more and more perfunctory, not even sending a literate daughter-in-law. She found another pen and paper, "Come, take a look. First, ask the butler for this card. Arrange for the good people to pick up the ladies at the side door that day. Prepare a sedan chair. The ladies will be leaving in the afternoon, so arrange for someone to send them."

"Give this piece of paper to the butler as well. That's the ingredients that the Miss will use for the feast that day. The menu will be given to the kitchen tomorrow. You have to match it with the butler. "When the time comes, the kitchen will report that there are no ingredients and will not be able to cook the dishes that the young miss wants. If you want to be punished, you can only come." Shardmother said.

"Shardbearer, tell me what ingredients are on this piece of paper. When the time comes, I can ask the housekeeper if she has purchased all of the dishes."

So Shardmother told her the same thing, and the happy wife nodded her head like a mace, and repeated that she was sure, and that Shardmother thought it would do if people were careful. "Then Shardmother, the First Lady's party, don't arrange the sets, arrange the troupe?" Some of the more valuable items were not placed on the outside, but in the storage room. They would only be placed outside after the banquet guests had arrived.

"The furnishings are all out of the small courtyard. Miss, you don't have to arrange a crew to talk to each other. " Shardmother said.

When her fiancée Wang Rong and her courtyard came out, she still had to return to Lady Cui Courtyard to talk. Lady Cui only asked a few quick questions before leaving, she was worried about one thing Wang Zhixi had to worry about and had to put down everything on the side.

There was not much work to be done, and when she had free time, she would often go to Wang Rong and the courtyard and tell Shardbearer that these days she was busy with the eldest miss and that Shardbearer would just have to tell her what she needed to do. Shardbearer actually had someone at work, but with the sincerity of a happy daughter-in-law, she invited her to do the same.

The Wang family was now the head of the Lady Cui, but the old granny was still there. There were always a few people who cared for her, and even though she was dead, there were always a few people left to protect her. So if Wang Rong He wanted to do something, even if Lady Cui was unhappy, he would not stop her. Wang Rong and the people working in the courtyard naturally sided towards her. Lady Cui had once sent people over to serve her, but none of them stayed behind in the end.

A happy daughter-in-law knows that the wife definitely doesn't like the older girls, and not a stepmother likes the children of the previous wife. However, the first time she was on duty, she really wouldn't do anything bad on purpose. She acted on instinct and accidentally landed herself in a girl's courtyard.

In the early spring, the flowers were blooming one by one, the small garden was meticulously decorated, and the flower pots brought in from the outside were properly placed in pots and pans. This was the first time that a wedding wife came to the small garden, so she couldn't help but look around.

She let her man talk to the groom who brought her flowers and knew that the flowers were all from Yongli Flower Hall, which was a big flower shop that sent flowers to the palace. Her man asked if the flowers were cheap, and the groom who delivered the flowers cracked his whip with a smile, "We already bought the flowers from our place, who would even ask for the price?"

In the evening, when the couple was hiding in bed and talking about this, the daughter-in-law cracked her fingers. "So Shardson didn't let me go to the bookkeeper's office to pay for the flowers?"

"It's not that the old lady gave the silver to give the young miss a banquet." Joy muttered that it would be best for him to say that his wife had a kitchen job, but who knew that she had sharpened her head and was going to lean over to the lady.

He didn't understand when he saw his happy wife. Look at the wives waiting for him in the courtyard, they were all clean and healthy all the time. They were as thick as a man's waist when they were not even 30 in the kitchen. Did I want to look good for myself? It's all for your sake. If I let you change your position after I've gained some face, you'll want to serve the horses for the rest of your life.

"I've often heard people in my wife's yard saying that the old lady is biased, but looking at it this way, it really is eccentric." "Even if the public flowers didn't come from Yongli Flower Manor, now that the big girl is hosting a private banquet, the old lady will buy the flowers from the Yongli Flower Manor. So much less money."

"It's not like I'm spending your money, what are you worrying about?" He said happily. So what if he served horses? He loved to serve horses.

The dinner plates were to be delivered to the kitchen one day in advance, and Shardmother opened the storeroom and wrote a note for what she wanted to use and sent it to the kitchen with her happy daughter-in-law.

This was the first time that a concubine had seen such fine porcelain, and the fear on her face seemed to have condensed into reality.

"It's all right. Porcelain is a consumable commodity. " Wuyou said to her, "As long as you don't intentionally break it, or if there's any damage, I won't blame you."

"They look expensive." A happy daughter-in-law honestly said.

"It doesn't matter, it's all burned by our own family." Wuyou said. Previously, when the Second Young Master stayed in Jiangxi to study, he stayed in Jingde Town for a period of time. The young lady bought a kiln there and every year she would go there to light it up.

"There's even a porcelain kiln at home?" A happy daughter-in-law exclaimed.

Wuyou looked at her, "It's just that young master's friend's house does this, every year I will open a kiln and burn some small things for young lady, don't tell anyone else."

Wuyou turned and slapped her own mouth, to let you talk fast.
