1546 Chapter 30
The second wife, Mrs. Chen, said that she was worried about the second master, so she went back.
When we arrived at Beiding Garden, the banquet had already been prepared early.
There are sixteen cold basins on the table, and men and women sit on both sides of the long table.
Since the old lady did not come, the main seat at the end of the long table was vacant.No matter how hard it is to respond, there is still some filial piety.
General Zhao is naturally the first in the men's table, followed by the princes, one by one, and the last is Zhao Heming.
The first female seat is naturally Mrs. Zhao, Xining is sitting next to Mrs. Zhao, and the third place is Mrs. He.Because Zhao Heya was still young, she sat next to He Shi, so it was convenient for her to take care of her.Zhao Yingxue took the fifth seat, and Aunt Xu took the last seat.
Xi Ning saw it, don't say, this Aunt Xu is quite capable, and she can have a seat at dinner.In other mansions, most of the concubines will not be in the main hall, but go outside to eat with the servants.
A Wuxin plate made of five kinds of vegetables is placed in the middle, such as sauced duck, drunk chicken, white-cut mutton, etc., each plate is very beautifully arranged.
The maids poured the freshly boiled rice wine into small celadon wine cups.
Xi Ning picked up her mouth and took a sip, it was warm and sweet.
General Zhao frowned after drinking it: "This wine is a bit sweeter, let's go to Qin wine."
Mrs. Zhao said with a smile: "I know that with the master's drinking capacity, you won't get drunk until your stomach is full. When the family banquet is over, you have to watch the night, even if you save it for tomorrow."
Thinking about it, General Zhao picked up his chopsticks and said, "Just eat more food."
During the banquet, toast each other.Xi Ning even picked up the cup and touched it lightly, just like the elder brother of the body owner, he would be drunk after a while.
Aunt Xu lowered her head, just smiled and kept silent.And Zhao Yingxue came to pay respects one by one, even the wife of the eldest son, Mrs. He, took a sip from the wine glass to show off.
When Zhao Yingxue toasted, she chose the right time, without being abrupt or cold.The primary and secondary are different, one by one respect.If placed in modern society, he is definitely a social public relations talent.
On the contrary, the body master is usually used to pampering, so how can he know these tricks.
Xi Ning picked up the wine glass and turned to the Shizi's wife, He Shi: "Sister-in-law, I respect you, I respect you for giving birth to a fat boy for my eldest brother this year."
He Shi picked up the wine glass with a smile, and took a sip.The red candles and red lanterns nearby shone on her face, making her flushed: "Maybe it's a girl."
Xining smiled happily: "The imperial physicians sent by the palace all said he was a boy, and I also believe it. When he grows up a bit, let He Ming take him with him, and it will make him suffer from headaches all day long just like his master. "
Zhao Heming immediately wailed: "Sister-in-law, don't hurt me, how can I take care of the child, or let the third aunt take care of it."
Zhao Yingyue slapped her with a slap: "Boy, what are you talking about! This man is trying to trick my wife before he gets married. Why don't you tell your wife to take him?"
Zhao Heming touched the back of the beaten head: "Slap again, be careful to make me stupid. If you marry a stupid wife, you won't be able to take care of your cousin."
Every sentence made the whole room laugh.
He Shi laughed so hard that he almost held his belly: "Lirong is still the smartest, respecting me one is equivalent to respecting two, you two should respect her quickly, let her teach you more in the future son."
The meal was eaten lively, and the hot vegetable soup began to be served.Plates of crab-stuffed oranges were brought up.
It is made by cutting a cover with orange, digging out the orange meat and steaming it with crab meat and crab paste.When eating, the sweetness of orange meat and the delicious sweetness of crab meat are mixed together, and the aftertaste is endless.
Before eating, Mrs. Zhao said: "This dish is delicious, but the crab meat is cold, so don't eat too much."
Every year when I eat this dish, I eat one after another. If I don’t look at it, I can probably eat it all.
"Yeah~" Xining nodded, and slowly dug and ate with a small spoon.Taste carefully, and ask the maid to remove the empty orange shell in front of her after eating.
Seeing Mrs. Zhao stretching her chopsticks towards the mutton, she reminded: "Mother, the crab is cold, and the mutton is hot, so it is not suitable to eat together. Just taste the taste."
Mrs. Zhao turned the chopsticks that were facing the large piece of mutton in the same direction, picked up some sporadic pieces on the plate, and put them in her mouth to chew slowly.While eating, he looked at his little daughter with a smile, as if watching could make her happier than eating.
There was also some game on the table, birds, deer, peacocks, and best of all, bison.Beef cannot be eaten in this dynasty, and the cattle must die of old age. Only after approval by the government can the meat be traded.But the old beef is so old that it can't be chewed, so there is nothing delicious to eat there.
However, bison meat is not within the range of farm cattle, and can be eaten casually, but it is not easy to capture a bison.
Mrs. Zhao didn't care whether everyone was watching or not, when the meat arrived, she just turned over a few pieces in the basin, found the best piece, and put it in Xining's bowl: "Li'er, eat this piece, this piece is good. "
Xi Ning picked up the beef, put it into He's bowl, and joked: "Sister-in-law, now you are a person with two bodies, and toasting you with wine just now is equivalent to toasting two. Now you eat alone, and two make up for it." , this piece should be given to you!"
He Shi smiled: "When you say it, I'm as sweet as eating seventeen or eight pieces of meat. This piece of meat should be eaten by you, otherwise if you say it, you will grab it with your sister-in-law before it comes out." Meat to eat."
There was laughter again, Zhao Heming sat across from him but looked at him eagerly: "Mother, you and my sister-in-law give way, why don't you let me eat."
He Shi rolled his eyes, angry and funny: "You are worthless."
"Yeah, worthless! Snatch meat from my unborn younger brother." Xining spat softly, "Bah~"
Now the laughter continued.
"That's enough, that's enough!" Madam Zhao stood up, and took a piece from Zhao Heming's bowl: "I'll give you a piece too, no preference."
Zhao Heming cheered up: "Thank you grandma." He picked up the chopsticks and ate.This kid, eating is the most important thing.
Seeing General Zhao laughing, Mrs. Zhao deliberately asked: "Master, do you want to get a piece for you?"
Seeing General Zhao stunned for a moment, the people around couldn't stop laughing.
After dinner, it's time to watch a drama.In this era, drama is still in its infancy.Officials still focus on singing and dancing, and Zaju is generally not considered elegant.
But the General's Mansion is informal, it was originally for fighting and killing, and it didn't think about developing an elegant line.Every year, a troupe is invited to perform in the mansion.
During the zaju, there are singing and dancing, funny, and even juggling, which is colorful and lively.
After reading it, they started to have some fun, chatting and playing leaf cards, guessing riddles, and drinking orders.Both Xi Ning and Zhao Yingyue held a volume of books and leaned to one side to read, and when their mouths got bored, they drank some water and ate a piece of candied fruit.
After midnight, go to the courtyard to worship the gods of heaven and earth, and pray for the safety of the whole family and success in the family business in the new year. The elders gave red envelopes to the younger generation.
Xining fell asleep and didn't get up until noon.
