Zhenfubao waved his hand and the warehouse was full of grain, and the whole family regretted it

The game on the table became more and more abundant.

A plate of wild roe deer meat braised in sauce was served. The sauce was rich in color and the roe deer meat itself was tender and melted in the mouth.

The big bowl of braised bear paws next to it is even more eye-catching. I pick up a piece with chopsticks and put it in my mouth. It is soft, sticky and sticky to my lips.

This kind of ingredients are rare and require great skill to prepare. The fact that they can be cooked without any fishy smell shows the chef's skills.

Even better was the pot of mushroom soup, which was filled with wild shiitake mushrooms, delicate enoki mushrooms, earthy chanterelles, and a few plump bamboo fungi that were full of juicy juice when bitten into.

Take a sip, and the sweetness of the mushroom explodes on the tip of your tongue, adding layers of flavor to the meat you ate before, making it so delicious that you'll be smacking your lips.

In addition, there are stir-fried wild pheasant offal, which is crispy, tender and chewy.

The fried bee pupae, sprinkled with pepper and salt, are so fragrant that you can’t stop eating them.

There is even a plate of cold wild vegetables, which is a little bitter but refreshing and relieves greasiness. They are fresh goods just picked from the forest.

Manager Zhou couldn't help but drink two more bowls of mushroom soup, praising it, "This soup has the refreshing aroma of the mountains and forests, which is rare."

The steward smiled and said, "These are the specialties of our villa. Of course, there are many other local specialties. You can take some back and enjoy them slowly."

Zhou Zhushi brought back several baskets of local specialties, including honey, peaches, pears, watermelons, grapes...

There were also a lot of braised dishes, and he accepted them because he thought they were ordinary things. When he got home, Master Zhou threw these things on the table and went to rest.

Who would have thought that the girls and boys in his family would start eating the braised food as soon as they saw it.

The braised food was bright red and attractive when it was served, with chicken wings, duck necks, duck feet and pig ears covered in thick sauce.

Take a bite and the spicy feeling goes straight to the top of your head, but it is also accompanied by a sweet aftertaste. The more you eat, the more you can't stop.

The six half-grown boys in Mr. Zhou's family were greedy to begin with, and when they saw such delicious food, they lost their restraint. They scrambled for the food and finished the whole pot of braised food in no time.

There was a mountain of bones piled up on the table, and even the marinade had been scraped clean by them using steamed buns.

The watermelons, grapes, and peaches in the fruit bowl next to them were also devoured by these boys in a flash. The rinds and cores were thrown all over the floor, and even the quietest little daughter had grape juice on the corners of her mouth.

When Manager Zhou lifted the curtain, he saw the messy scene and stood at the door, feeling both amused and helpless.

A few children heard the noise, turned around and saw that it was him. They stopped awkwardly, with excitement still on their faces.

He shook his head helplessly, walked over and kicked his eldest son's feet: "Is it delicious? Look at how capable you are. You even piled up the bones like a mountain."

The youngest son nodded first, wiping his greasy little hands on his lips:

"Dad, this braised food is even more delicious than the old-fashioned ones in the city! It's spicy and numbing, and it's so satisfying to eat!

Where did you buy it? Buy some for us, I want to bring some to my classmates to try!

The others followed suit, shouting in unison, "It's so delicious" and "I've never eaten anything so delicious," their eyes full of anticipation.

Looking at their greedy faces, Director Zhou wanted to put on a serious face and say something, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up:

"You're just picky. This isn't something you buy from outside; it's made by the chef at the farm..."

Okay, stop staring, we’ll talk later.”

The next day, Zhou Zhushi suggested going to Bai Wanwan's manor. Naturally, the ministers expressed different opinions: "I heard that this manor is about to be abandoned. Isn't it too shabby to go here for the autumn hunt?"

"Could it be that Mr. Zhou accepted some favor from someone?"

"Isn't it? I always thought this was just a simple little village. Why is it so highly regarded? I think Qionglin Villa is more interesting."

Master Zhou repeatedly said to his attendants:

"I've looked carefully, this manor is much better than Qionglin Villa!

Although the Qionglin Courtyard looks grand, it is actually very cramped and can only accommodate a few thousand people at most.

But the hunting ground here alone is spacious enough, and there is also a restaurant, a pavilion for resting, and an open space for parking carriages and horses.

There is more than enough space for tens of thousands of people to come in, and it doesn’t feel crowded at all.”

He paused and talked about the restaurant again:

"The facilities inside are impeccable. It has six floors, a bright lobby, elegant private rooms, and clean tables and chairs.

Even the kitchen is neatly organized, with tea, food, and rest areas all available. How can ordinary villas be so meticulous?"

Director Zhou became more and more excited as he spoke:

“The game in the hunting grounds is fresh, you can taste all kinds of wild food in the restaurant, and you can also go into the mountains to pick all kinds of fruits and vegetables.

You can fish by the lake, play pitching pots, swing on the swings, and participate in various sports competitions on the open space.

If you want to be quiet, go for a walk in the woods; if you want to be active, go to the archery range to practice...

This isn't just a hunting ground; it's like a place where you can eat, drink, and have fun all in one place, with convenience and ease everywhere."

Qi Guangheng became quite interested: "Whose villa is this? It's so lively and colorful. It's quite interesting."

Manager Zhou smiled and said, "This is the manor under the name of the eldest princess Bai Wanwan."

Qi Guangheng laughed heartily and said:

“This girl is really quirky, but she has a pretty good brain.

Then go and take a look at her farm. I'm also very curious about what this farm is like."

Su Daji was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She looked at Zhou Zhushi coldly and said, "You are quite good at doing things. I heard that you accepted a lot of things from others."

Director Zhou laughed heartily and said:

"I didn't expect that even the Queen knew about this. These are just some specialties from their farm.

But it was really delicious. My kids ate it all and kept asking for more! "

Qi Guangheng nodded and said, "Okay, this is it. I'd like to take a look at what this farm looks like."

As soon as Qi Guangheng gave the order, the entire villa started moving, and Bai Wanwan also became busy.

Shen Tao sat in the manor, fishing and drinking tea, saying, "Tsk tsk tsk... Life in this villa is so wonderful, I don't even want to go back."

Bai Wanwan looked at him while fishing and said, "Does it make sense for you to stay here with me? Doesn't your mother care about you?"

Shen Tao coughed and said:

"My mother said that it would be beneficial for me to learn more from you, especially how to do business and how to write articles.

I really didn't expect you to get second place in the exam this time. How did you stay so calm? "

Bai Wanwan was second place, a fact not many people knew about. She smiled and said, "What's the big deal? You can do it if you work hard."

Shen Tao continued to ramble on, "Now that Su Daji has set her sights on you, you better be careful."

Bai Wanwan nodded and said, "Yes, I know, but she won't have time to stare at me soon. After the autumn hunt is over, isn't it time for the talent show?"

Shen Tao frowned and said:

"Indeed, you know all this? The Great Qi Kingdom hasn't held a beauty pageant for a long time, and suddenly a message came from the palace, saying that a group of new people would be selected to enter the palace.

It also means selecting concubines for the princes."
