I Own a Garden with One Hundred Herbs

Baicaoshi prepared today's dinner according to Quanjufang's New Year's Eve dinner specifications. A stove was set up in the kitchen to make the most famous roast duck. All the pots were set on fire, all the steaming and frying were greeted, and the overall management of the time was done very well.

Zhe Yu really has no future in cooking, but his knife skills are top-notch.

With a knife in hand, the shredded cucumbers are cut into thin slices, the radishes are carved into flowers, and the thickness of the salted duck is the same.

And he was born so handsome that he cut vegetables into performance art.

Li Jianping, Eucommia, and Dingxiang who watched were stunned.

Li Jianping was not assigned to do anything, his only task was to keep an eye on the two-flavored grass and prevent them from tampering.

As the saying goes, you must not have the heart to harm others, and you must not have the heart to guard against others.

The dialogue between Eucommia and Clove is like this.

Du: "Fuck me, does this cucumber have thin hairs?"

Ding: "Shhh, be careful to avoid taboos."

The name of Baicaoshi contains the word "grass", so as servants, they should pay attention to avoid taboos.

Du: "I'm stupid, do you feel that my nose is cold when you cut the duck?"

Ding: "You have a cold nose, how do I know? I have a cold back, so be careful!"

Du: "Don't we really need to get started? I've never seen the master cooking and the servants watching."

Such masters are indeed rare.

Ding: "As long as you burn the fire well, it's a great achievement. Stop talking nonsense."

Baicaoshi is familiar with cooking. This is a New Year's Eve dinner that mixes Beijing and Nanjing dishes, and the last dish is roast duck. She was smiling the whole time, because Zhe Yu was by her side and a martial arts master was helping her, so her efficiency increased tenfold.

When the meal was good, the men in the family went to the yard with firecrackers.

In the sound of firecrackers, the year ends, and the spring breeze brings warmth into Tusu. There was a crackling sound.

Of course, the Sixteen Kings House is setting off firecrackers today.

After setting off the fireworks, the whole family entered the house, and the dishes on the table were prepared.

According to the etiquette, the servants should congratulate the master on the new year.

Du Zhong and Ding Xiang knelt down and wished a safe and happy New Year.

Baicao Poetry prepared red envelopes, which were made of red paper for writing couplets, with silver notes inside, and gave each person one.

In Dayan, there is no custom of wrapping red envelopes. It is said that this custom was formed in the late period of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. So when Baicaoshi took out the red envelope, Zhe Yu guessed that it was a custom in her hometown.

"This is a little thought from the young master and myself. It is fate to meet you. Besides, you have taken care of the young master for a while. We are all people with clear grievances and grievances. People respect me a foot, and I respect others. But if there is something wrong with your heart, we I will not forgive you lightly. This profit is for you to keep."

The two servants looked at each other, they had never seen this kind of red envelope, and it was obvious that it couldn't hold silver taels, could it be their evidence of crime?

The two took it anxiously.

Baicaoshi said again: "Today is New Year's Eve, a day for family reunion. I don't know if you have family members in Yanjing. There are extra meals in the kitchen. I have packed them. You can take them back and taste them with your family. You don't need to be on duty at the house tonight. Just come back after the New Year's Eve."

Xiao Nian Chao is the third day of the Lunar New Year.

There was a smile on the corner of Zhe Yu's mouth, Madam became more and more powerful. It was clear that he wanted to send people away, and he used such a clever method. He just thought they were an eyesore.

Duzhong Dingxiang personally kowtowed to thank him again. I thought my wife was going to dismiss them, but I was thinking too much.

Li Jianping took them to the kitchen, and each had two big food boxes, sorted into different categories. After a busy day, his wife finally took most of them away. The two of them looked at each other and saw the emotion in each other's eyes.

The red lanterns were hung up, the two left the palace, each opened the red envelopes, and found that each contained fifty taels of silver bills.

Shock!

Madam is so generous.

In fact, they didn't know that the smallest denomination of Dayan banknotes was fifty taels, and any smaller ones would be taels of silver, which was not suitable for carrying red envelopes. When Baicaoshi sealed the red envelope, her heart was bleeding.

At this moment, the two people who were about to leave saw a sedan chair parked in front of the side door of Prince Xu's Mansion.

A little old man in casual clothes and a felt hat stretched out his arm. The sedan chair curtain was lifted, and a pair of brocade boots embroidered with intricate patterns got out of the sedan chair, and put their hands on the little old man's arms.

"Grandpa, be careful."

The man raised his head and looked at the signboard with three big characters "Xu Wangfu" written under the night.

Dou An asked again: "Can Master Zhe Yu come out to pick you up?"

Emperor Yanwu waved his hand. Today there were constant banquets in the palace, he pretended to be correcting the memorials in Tianyuan Hall, but no one was there, so he took a moment to come out. "Forget it, just take a look."

Du Zhong and Ding Xiang saw everything in their eyes, and then they looked at the red seal in their hands, shook their heads at each other, and left quietly as if they hadn't seen anything.

By chance, Dou An saw these two people, "Hey, aren't you from the mansion? Why didn't you wait for the master and ran out?"

Du Zhong and Ding Xiang recognized Eunuch Dou, and immediately knelt down.

**

After seeing off Eucommia and cloves, Baicaoshi felt so happy.

Without eyeliner, you can have fun.

There were four sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table, Zhe Yu looked at the beam, and said: "It's all here, what's the point of hiding on the beam? Are you a gentleman on the beam?"

Zhenyilou smiled and fell from above, "Test your defense, Shishi didn't find me."

Baicaoshi crossed her arms and pushed her chin towards the table.

"If they didn't find you, how would the four sets of bowls and chopsticks explain it?" Zhe Yu asked.

Really grinned.

Li Jianping grinned, stretched out his hand, and twirled his index finger and middle finger, "Girl, son, you have auspicious new year, good luck and longevity, great wealth and honor, and many children and grandchildren."

That expression is very doggy.

The two servants who co-authored each had red seals. As a personal book boy and servant, he couldn't be treated worse.

Baicaoshi deliberately said: "Here, today I promise you to sit down and eat together."

Li Jianping: "..."

Turn into a pig's kidney face in seconds, isn't there that red seal?

Only then did Baicaoshi take out two red envelopes from behind her back, "It's Chinese New Year today, everyone who sees it will have a share, one red envelope per person, everyone will be lucky."

The first floor really doesn't care, as long as he has delicious food. But Li Jianping, just looking at the thickness of the red seal, knew that it was more than those two grasses.

Overjoyed.

He immediately poured wine for several people, and the red wine in the glass was red yeast rice wine.

Zhe Yu was the first to hold up the wine glass, "As Shi Shi said, meeting is fate. To this unusual year, everyone cheers."

Suddenly the door opened, and Emperor Yanwu stepped in.

"You came here uninvited, didn't you disturb your New Year's Eve dinner?"

Several people got up, Zhe Yu's face remained unchanged, he was silent for a moment, and said: "We haven't started yet, it doesn't hurt to add another pair of bowls and chopsticks."

Emperor Yanwu originally wanted to say, I will leave after sitting down for a while, but looking at the table full of sumptuous banquets, it is obvious that he knows all the raw materials, but this is the first time he has seen this practice. However, the aroma was desperately drilled into the nose. As for the wine, wasn't it the red yeast rice that was rumored to cost a lot of money in Yanjing?

He blurted out, "Okay."
