[Chapter 73] Enemy Road is narrow
It is the tenth day of the New Year in a blink of an eye.
Before the fourth day, my uncle got up.
The eldest aunt was woken up by him and muttered dissatisfiedly: "You won't go, why do you do so early?"
Master Xiao Wu only ordered a dish of stinky tofu, which Yu Wan could make, so there was no need to bother uncle.
The fact is that my uncle secretly did it several times behind his back, but no matter how he did it, he still did not have the stinky tofu odor made by Yu Wan.
My uncle was deeply hit and decided not to discover this secret. He is still a legend in the kitchen, and he is also the most powerful uncle!
The eldest aunt and Yu Feng brothers who had already discovered the secret: "..."
The uncle put on his clothes and said with a smile: "Awan is going to Beijing. After finishing her work, she will visit the children. I will make some food for her to take."
"Does they lack this food for you?" The eldest aunt glared at him, but she also resisted her sleepiness.
At the fifth anniversary of the sky, a small white smear of fish gradually emerged from the sky, and the dim morning light shone through the clouds and fell dazzlingly.
Shangguan Yan sat in front of the dressing table, glanced inadvertently, and closed her eyes slightly by the colorful glazed tiles outside the window.
Madam Fang hurriedly pulled the curtain.
The little maid stood behind Shangguan Yan and tried to wear a whole row of dazzling hairpins for her.
Shangguan Yan rarely gets up early. For nothing else, it is the birthday of Mr. Wei, Xiao Wu's aunt, and she went to celebrate Mrs. Wei's birthday.
Speaking of Mrs. Wei, she is really an amazing figure. She lost her husband in her early years and her daughter in middle age, and she had only a young daughter under her knees.
When the days were almost over, she took her daughter to her cousin from afar, namely Xiao Wu's family.
However, what Mrs. Wei never expected was that the Xiao Wu family was too poor, Xiao Wu's father was idle, Xiao Wu's temperament was too weak to control him, and he had a pair of children to take care of, so he could not spare any effort to support the family.
Fortunately, the Xiao couple became poor and did not dislike the family’s extra mouths. However, they did not dislike the rice bags, but they still became a little bit weak.
Mrs. Wei was forced to do the skills she learned from her deceased husband and began to go around the streets to make a living.
A widow supports a family alone, and the hardships in it are unimaginable to ordinary people.
It can be said that without Mrs. Wei, there would be no Xiao Wu family today.
Xiao’s father and mother passed away one after another a few years ago. Mrs. Wei originally planned to take her daughter back to the countryside, but was kept by Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu bought a house for her and Wan Zhaoyi even appointed an imperial decree for her. Not only that, Wan Zhaoyi also brought her daughter into the palace for upbringing.
In this way, it is difficult for Mrs. Wei to mention returning home again, she will completely settle in the capital.
"Madam, the second master's carriage is ready." A second-class maid came in with a curtain and reported softly.
The new little maid picked up a peacock and pointed a green hairpin and said arrogantly: "Let him wait!"
Madam Fang glared at the little maid.
The little maid curled her lips: "Madam used to let the second master wait..."
Shangguan Yan held up the hairpin on her hair bun, looked at herself in the bronze mirror and said, "Today, I really can't let him wait."
"Second Master is waiting, the second master said that the wife is the most important!" said the little maid with great confidence.
Shangguan Yan looked in the mirror and put on her earrings: "Who is afraid that he will wait?"
Today is Mrs. Wei’s birthday. Shangguan Yan still owes Mrs. Wei a great favor, so naturally he can’t make a fuss at her birthday party.
The little maid served Shangguan Yan onto the carriage.
After arriving at the Wei Mansion, the male guest went to the house of Xiao Wuye, and the female relatives were introduced to Xichun Pavilion in the inner house. Only Shangguan Yan was invited to Mrs. Wei's house with a smile on her face.
On the other hand, the Yu family's carriage also arrived at the Wei Mansion.
The uncle didn't come, but Yu Feng and Yu Song came over, and they both attacked Yu Wan.
Yu Wan jumped out of the carriage with a bag and a small jar on her back. The two of them moved the baskets and jars containing ingredients.
The jar is very well sealed and cannot smell the smell inside. However, compared with the delicacies and sea flavors coming and going around, the clay jars still look a little shabby.
The servant guarding the gate looked at them for a while and didn't recognize what they were here for. It was not until Yu Wan took out the post left by Xiao Wu that the servant realized that the three people in front of him were the chefs invited by Master Xiao Wu.
The Bai family's past lessons were learned. When they went to Beijing, the three of them changed their original clothes. Although they were still wearing several clothes, they were much more decent than before, but they seemed... they seemed a little too young.
However, Mr. Xiao Wu also said that the young girl was in charge.
The servant accepted the post and made a gesture into the mansion and said, "Please here."
The three of them walked into the mansion.
But suddenly, Yu Song's back loosened, and the belt on one side was broken. The basket tilted down. The sweet potatoes and water radishes inside fell out, and rolled away on the ground like a sprinkling of pearls.
Yu Song hurriedly bowed to pick it up, but he was too anxious to pick it up and didn't notice a carriage parked in front of him.
A maid jumped out of the carriage and accidentally bumped into Yu Song.
Yu Song finally picked up the things he had full of them and fell off again, and the box in the maid's hand also knocked off.
The lid of the box fell open with a bang, and the snacks were spread all over the floor.
The maid was so beautiful: "Oh my stuff!"
Yu Song was stunned.
Yu Feng and Yu Wan rushed over.
The maid was so angry that she said, "Look at the good things you did! I have finally praised you until now! But you are completely lost! Now, my lady is going to scold me to death!"
Yu Song looked at the snacks on the ground and muttered, "Are you all good? Just pick them up."
"Pick it up, pick it up?" The maid was almost smoking. Who is it? It's dirty, can you still pick it up and eat it?
Yu Song knew that he was in a disadvantage, so he lowered his head and stopped arguing with her.
Yu Wan took a look at the snacks, opened the bag and walked forward, and said to the maid: "I'm sorry, I knocked off your snacks. I also have a lot of snacks here, which were made by my uncle. He used to be a chef in Beijing and has a very good craftsmanship. Do you have any of them like?"
These were all made by my uncle for a few little guys. Not only did they taste excellent, but they were also very exquisite in style. Yu Wan was confident that she would never be worse than the box of desserts she fell off.
If she likes it, she will pay her two boxes; if she doesn't like it, she will discuss other ways to compensate.
But the maid didn't even look at it-
"What's your uncle? Can you compare with Miss Du?"
The maid brushed her hand and knocked all the snacks in Yu Wan's bag to the ground!
