Crossing the famine, I am a poor fish, and my descendants have to work hard

Tomorrow is the relocation party.

Zhao Yuanzhen was checking everything, and her own luggage and belongings had already been moved in.

People came to live here.

The kitchen is not yet lit.

Tomorrow is the official day of moving, and we can only start working tomorrow.

In her own space, Zhao Yuanzhen killed 50 lambs, 1 cow, pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, etc.

Lamb has already bought the equipment for roasting whole lamb, and asked Caicai to brush various seasonings on it and put it in a static warehouse.

Enough was reserved according to the size of the banquet.

We will go buy the vegetables early tomorrow morning, and Zhao Yuanzhen has prepared the seafood.

Just drive the carriage tomorrow and send it to the mansion early.

The stage has been built, the tables, chairs and benches have been placed, the place has been cleaned, and the flower pots and plants have been placed.

There is also a bottle of fresh flowers on each table, and the overall atmosphere is very good.

The tableware had been bought and transported into the kitchen, and the maids had washed the dishes.

The kitchen and bathroom of Nanchengyuan have been newly renovated using the most convenient and comfortable design solutions.

After completing the examination and finding that there was no problem, Zhao Yuanzhen went to bed early.

I have to get up early tomorrow to get the ingredients and then pretend to deliver them into the house.

Zhao Yuanzhen got up at 4 o'clock in the morning.

I called Lan Ying and the transport belt and went to the rented temporary warehouse.

Zhao Yuanzhen began to take out various ingredients, including the roasted whole lamb that had been seasoned and the rack for the roasted whole lamb.

After taking them, ask them to come in and load them onto the car to be transported back to the mansion.

When we arrived at the house, we handed all the ingredients to the kitchen and put the rest into the warehouse.

The kitchen first prepared a simple breakfast, and after everyone finished eating, they began to get busy preparing for the banquet.

First light the fire, put 50 whole roasted lambs on the racks, and then prepare the other ingredients.

At around 8 o'clock, guests had already arrived.

The housekeeper and servants were receiving guests outside.

Lead to the lobby.

At 9:, the ceremony began.

The host was a young girl with a sharp tongue and a pleasant voice.

The first part is all ditty.

There are ensembles, solos, choruses, and solos.

The first dance started after 10 o'clock when most people had arrived.

There are also solo and group dances prepared.

Various fruit plates and teas have been placed on the table, and each person has a set of tableware, including chopsticks, bowls, plates, tea cups, and wine glasses.

Zhao Yuanzhen custom-made a lot of four-layer serving carts.

Desserts are served first.

Each cart is loaded with ten kinds of sweet soup. Ask at each table what they want to eat.

In order to take care of the female members, Zhao Yuanzhen specially built a partition in the middle of the hall. The two sides can only communicate with each other from the front of the stage, and cannot pass through the back and the middle, which greatly protects the privacy of the female members.

As for the sweet soup, the female guests liked it much more than the male guests, but the male guests also ordered one dish each.

The words "Zhang Tangshui Shop" are printed on the tableware.

She would never miss any opportunity to advertise her shop.

I just arrived and I don’t know many people.

Zhao Yuanzhen specially invited a respected guest to visit.

It is based on the guests' various information to arrange which table they should sit at, who is at each table, who cannot sit at the same table, etc.

Among the musicians who came from the capital, there was one who could dance with a sword, and he danced very beautifully.

He is heroic and has all kinds of charm.

Won the whole house drink tea.

When it came to crosstalk, everyone was delighted as it was the first time they encountered this form of art performance.

Various laughter could be heard from the lobby from time to time.

Zhao Yuanzhen ignored the lobby and kept looking at the kitchen and her roasted whole lamb.

Unexpectedly, before Yang finished the exam, Zhang Sangbai came over.

"Madam, we caught a female relative who said her dress was wet and she quietly turned towards the young master's yard."

"First take her to the prepared place to change her clothes, then send someone to take her back to the banquet to find out which mansion she is from."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Was she walking in the right direction of the yard?"

"Yes, it's the young master's yard."

"Well, let's go."

As the prefect, Zhang Xinshu should generally be hospitalized, but Zhao Yuanzhen is currently staying in the hospital, and he chose a side courtyard with elegant landscape.

If you don't ask specifically, you won't be able to find his yard.

It seems that there is a ghost in the family.

Zhang Sangbai calmly sent the person back to the banquet. The girl was panicked and dared not carry out her plan again.

There were a few more people who followed suit and used the same trick again.

It seems that there are quite a few traitors in their house.

Let’s deal with it after today’s relocation banquet is over.

At 11:, after the talent show ended, the artists left the stage.

The maids and servants began to clear the dried fruits and fruit plates on the table.

It's time to start serving the food.

The first thing to be served was the roasted whole lamb, which was placed on a large tray and carried by two people.

Fortunately, the sheep we chose was not very big, otherwise the table might not be able to be opened.

Then, small carts started serving food to each table.

Each table has 15 dishes and a soup.

For wine, Zhao Yuanzhen chooses homemade wine, including both white and red wine.

He is not well educated and has a light fragrance.

Each table is also equipped with a gloved waiter who helps slice the roasted whole lamb.

After three rounds of drinks and when the dishes were almost finished, Zhang Xinshu stood up and began to introduce himself to the familiar faces at each table.

There are customers who follow the introduction.

Also accompanying him were the stewards of the inner and outer courtyards, as well as some of the people in charge.

They also need to get to know these people as soon as possible.

It took more than two hours to get to know the people at each table.

The main reason was that there were too many people. There were 467 male and female guests. There were 47 tables, including 13 tables for female relatives, who were accompanied by Zhao Yuanzhen.

Only after going through all of them did Zhang Xinshuo complete his task.

He also remembered most of the people.

Those big families in the world saw Zhang Xinshuo accompanying Zhao Yuanzhen.

Everyone's eyes were wide open.

She! She, she, she! Isn’t that the damned rival who stole the photo?

It turned out that she was the prefect's mother.

No wonder, no wonder.

I can’t get it. I can’t get it.

But, isn’t this prefect’s family a little too rich?

They originally thought that this house was bought by this woman and given to the prefect, but they didn't expect that it actually belonged to one family.

Is a prefect so rich?

I'm afraid it's corruption! Wait! They seem to be catching the prefect in the act.

No, I'll send someone to investigate it carefully when I get back.

I must find his weakness, and then I can use this prefect to my advantage, right?

Each of them revealed an ambiguous smile, and the look in their eyes when they looked at Zhang Xinshuo was a little calculating.

The banquet ended at four o'clock in the afternoon and all the guests left.

Zhao Yuanzhen was extremely tired.

Fortunately, in the lobby, the two butlers had already directed the cleanup.

Zhao Yuanzhen was not full at the banquet just now, so the cook gave her a portion of Yangzhou fried rice, and then she ate and went to rest.

After the people who had been at the banquet left, they gathered in groups of two or three to discuss the prefect's relocation banquet.

The scale was really grand, the style was really outstanding, the level of the various talent performances was very high, the music was very beautiful, many of which they had never heard before, and they didn't know where the prefect found them.

As for the dishes, even the banquet hosted by the previous governor Fang was not as good as this one.

Not only are the ingredients the best, but the cooking skills are also top-notch, and every dish is delicious.

The roasted whole lamb is delicious, fat but not greasy, and tasty without smelling of mutton. As southerners, they fell in love with this roasted whole lamb for the first time.

The rest of the dish was delicious too.

The waiter introduced the staple food as a kind of fried rice, which my wife named Yangzhou Fried Rice.

The taste is very special, much better than white rice.

I don't know what materials were used.

This banquet hosted by Magistrate Zhang severely shocked the prominent families in Yangzhou Prefecture who were still secretly proud of themselves.

This is the confidence of officials from the capital.

Too arrogant.

Then they thought there must be something wrong with the money, so they all hurried home and sent people to look for clues.

The female members of the family spent a lot of money to buy information and tried to create various accidents, but none of them succeeded.

Who could have thought that the inner courtyard of Magistrate Zhang's house, where there was no wife, would be so strictly guarded.

They were not given any chance.

When they were sent back to the table, they were a little uneasy, fearing that these things would be exposed in the prefect's mansion.

But then I thought, since I didn't accomplish my goal, there was nothing to say. I just wanted to change my clothes because my dress was wet.

What can he do to me?

These women didn't know that the people who were bribed had already been found out by Zhao Yuanzhen.

After dinner, Zhao Yuanzhen held a meeting for everyone in the house.

I've been busy with various shops and workshops recently, and I haven't held any meetings or set any rules for these newly bought servants.

"Before the meeting, I want to ask one thing. Who betrayed the young master's information? Come forward yourself."

Zhao Yuanzhen sat on a chair on the stage, looking down at the group of people.

After waiting for a while, no one came forward.

"I'll give you one more chance. Those who stand up on their own can be exempted from exile. The most I can do is sell you out."

After waiting for a cup of tea, no one came out.

"Okay, time's up. Since you guys don't admit it, I'll do it myself. Zhang Eleven, Seventeen, stand up."

In order to facilitate management, Zhang Cancong changed the names of the servants in the outer courtyard.

Two men with defeated looks on their faces stood up trembling.

"Are you aware of your mistake?"

"I don't know, I hope Madam can tell me clearly."

"He's a tough guy. Zhang Shiyi, you received 50 taels of silver from the Qian Mansion yesterday and sold out the information about the young master's courtyard. Zhang Shiqi, you received 120 taels of silver from two families yesterday and sold out the information about the young master. You took the initiative to approach the second one, the Li Mansion, and sold it to them. Am I wrong?"

"Madam, please spare my life. I was wrong. I will never do it again. Please, Madam, spare my life."

"Madam, I am wronged. I really didn't do it. Madam, please don't wrongly accuse me."

"Since you are not convinced, then I will make you convinced from the bottom of your heart, Lan Ying."

Zhao Yuanzhen waved her hand and asked Lan Ying to bring the things up.

"Yes, ma'am."
