After crossing over, I am popular with both men and women
Chapter 255 Su Qinqi and Rong Family
In the evening, after everyone finished their work.
They gathered in the front hall again to discuss what needed to be prepared when Fu Bao returned home three days later.
Even Su Qinqi, a workaholic who was rarely seen in the past, was there. Because his daughter was getting married, he asked his boss for a few days off.
After all, she is the apple of my eye, so naturally I cherish her like a treasure.
"I discussed the drinks with the shopkeeper of Bihexuan yesterday, and they will be delivered tomorrow morning. The men's side has ten-year-old Huadiao, and the women's side has the latest osmanthus wine.
As for the dishes, they all followed the rules of the Chang'an return banquet, with six cold dishes and ten hot dishes.
The cold dishes are mainly stewed fish, ham, honey-cooked pork jerky, locust leaf cold noodles, sugar-coated crabs, and cold-mixed cucumbers.
Hot dishes include roasted mandarin duck, steamed gizzard, braised lion's head, roasted prawns, Mao soup, small Tiansu, stuffed fish with milk, duck flower soup cake...
Most of them are similar to the banquet held at the home of Mr. Zhou, who is of the same rank as my uncle, in the Ministry of Personnel..." Yunniang said, handing a copied list to Su's father and mother who were sitting at the top.
This was what she had discussed with Rong yesterday. Except for two of the more precious ingredients being replaced, everything else was the same.
"Sister-in-law, didn't we have a dish of roasted lamb and shark's fin yesterday?" Rong looked up with some confusion. Why was it different from what she had agreed on?
She only has one daughter, and such a big matter cannot afford to make any mistakes.
Therefore, she wanted to ask more clearly, to find out if there was something wrong or something else.
"That's what we were going to do, but my husband told us last night that Mr. Zhou from the Ministry of Personnel's sister is the wife of Marquis Xunyang, so we changed these two dishes to braised lion's head and steamed gizzards..." Yunniang explained in detail.
The main reason was that he had noble relatives, and it would be difficult to bypass him, so he planned to step back a little.
"My sister-in-law has done a great job, and that's just the way it should be. Besides, Your Majesty doesn't like extravagance and waste." Su Qinqi glanced at Rong who was about to ask more questions.
Then he smiled and thanked Yunniang. His sister-in-law has always been a considerate person and always strives for perfection in everything she does.
Moreover, his younger brother had stayed in Chang'an longer than him and knew more about some twists and turns than he did.
With him watching over me, I feel at ease.
You know, although he served as the Minister of Works and barely squeezed into the court, he was still far from those real nobles.
Once there is any mistake, it is easy to be criticized and cause unnecessary trouble.
He heard that the censors and inspectors were very bored recently.
Anyway, he had just arrived in Chang'an, and the highest-ranking person he could invite to the banquet, apart from his superiors and colleagues, was at most his younger brother's sister-in-law, Princess Rongfu.
The former is obsessed with the research of various industrial and agricultural tools all day long. It is estimated that at the banquet, they will not be able to help but gather together to discuss things, so they will not care about what to eat.
The latter is our own family, more affordable, and there is nothing wrong with it.
"Where is the opera troupe?" Su's mother put the recorded list aside and looked at her eldest daughter-in-law who was in charge of other matters.
Since the main guests were from the eldest son's side, interpersonal communication and venue arrangement were all left to Rong.
"The one we contacted was the Feng family troupe from the Dance and Music Building. They are the best at singing festive songs." Rong took over.
"My daughter-in-law will send someone to confirm twice in the next two days..."
"At that time, you must pay attention to the candlelight. The weather is getting drier and there are more fallen leaves. The maids and the new boys should also be more restrained and not offend the nobleman."
"Yes, my daughter-in-law knows."
...
"Why didn't you let me speak just now?" On the way back to the yard, Rong asked Su Qinqi puzzledly.
It’s not that she doesn’t trust her brother and sister-in-law. They have been sisters-in-law for many years. How could she not know what kind of people they are?
She just listened to Yunniang's words and thought about whether she should make some adjustments, but she didn't expect that her husband misunderstood her.
"I'm afraid you're thinking too much." Su Qinqi touched his nose.
When he was in front of others, he was mostly serious. Only when he was with his wife did he occasionally show some eccentricity.
"You are still afraid of me..." Rong was speechless. She had never been willing to take care of these trivial matters.
So when Su's mother delegated power, she gave it directly to Yunniang. If it wasn't for her own daughter's wedding, she would not have taken on any part of it.
Instead of wasting time, I might as well go back and write some storybooks, take them to a familiar study, and earn some more dowry money for my daughter.
However, ever since my husband was transferred to Chang'an, I have less and less to write about. Before, I had criminal cases and various strange things in the prefectures where I governed as material.
Now that she was in Chang'an, although there were many messy things, they were not something she could make up at random.
After all, if you throw a brick under the emperor's feet and hit ten people, five of them might be the emperor's relatives...
"Well! I don't know how Fubao is doing." Su Qinqi held his wife's hand and changed the subject intentionally or unintentionally.
"What could possibly happen? Jiulang is the best child, and both of you are kind people." Besides, after Fubao and Jiulang return home, the in-laws will have to rush back to Yizhou.
By then, the two younger ones will be just like they were back then. They just need to close the door and live their own lives.
When the time is right, it would be great to have two fat babies.
"Why don't we have another child? Then you won't be bored." Su Qinqi asked this question because he knew that Rong hadn't written for several days.
When he first got married, he thought he was marrying a gentle and kind lady from a noble family, who also looked delicate and fragile.
But later, as we got to know each other, I slowly discovered the differences in the person next to me.
Only then did I know that when she was young, she had traveled through mountains and rivers with her parents and saw scenery that most people had never seen.
So she doesn't like the stuff that ordinary little girls do, and she loves reading, especially biographies.
When I was in the boudoir, I wrote quite a few stories, which I adapted based on the stories I heard.
He is a rare and interesting person, and he can be said to have found a treasure.
So, while her parents were still young, she was brought into the position so that she could have freedom and have fun.
Over the years, they had never even tried to have children, and they only had one daughter, Fubao.
"You are so old, and you are not ashamed to say this." Rong glared at her husband, then turned her wrist and pinched his palm.
"How big is it? We are all just in our thirties." Su Qinqi didn't think so.
He is only five years older than his younger brother, and his sister-in-law just gave birth to their third child not long ago.
"Still outside!"
