Chapter 882: Banquet at the Mansion and Court at the Palace



Chapter 882: Banquet at the Mansion and Court at the Palace

Madam Xue held Leng Rongyue's hand and said, "Yue'er, the Emperor and the Empress are coming to our house for lunch at noon, but you are busy all by yourself...isn't it too tiring?

Your secret cannot be known to others. Is it possible... to ask your grandmother and your two aunts to help you?

Every time we wait comfortably, leaving you to work alone. Grandma feels so bad! "

Leng Rongyue listened, smiled and said, "Grandma, it's okay, Yue'er didn't have it that hard!

Yue'er is very happy that she can do something to honor her grandparents and uncle and aunt!

Also, didn’t Yue’er tell you?

The time in that space is different from the outside.

I'll cook a large table of dishes inside, and grandma and aunt will only need a cup of tea to wait outside. Your little granddaughter won't be tired!"

Leng Rongyue hugged Madam Xue's arm and spoke coquettishly.

“Then grandma feels bad too!

I can’t let you, the young lady, have to work hard every time!

Yue'er, can you teach the cook in our house how to cook those dishes?

Then, we can let them cook whatever we want to eat!"

“Yes, Yue’er, every once in a while you make something delicious, and it’s a treat for us to eat it once.

But, you are the treasure of the family, how can we always let you do the cooking work?"

Leng Rongyue listened and smiled, "Grandma, aunt, I also wanted to take out those seasonings in my space that are not available here and put them in the big kitchen;

Then he handed over the cooking method to the cook in the mansion.

But, there have been too many things to do so it has been delayed!

Teaching the cook in the mansion how to cook is one thing;

Also, I have to slowly sort out the shops and farms my mother left behind...

There are still many things to do, and by then, it will be impossible to cook every meal;

My grandmother and aunt like the food I cook. If they want to eat it anytime, they have to teach the cook in the house how to cook it.

After these few days, I'll finish a few things, teach the cook, and manage the shop and farm. These things all need to be done one by one!"

"So much the better!"

Madam Xue nodded, then thought of what happened today and asked, "What about today?

What can your grandmother and your two aunts do to help you?"

"Grandma and my two aunts can help cover for me!

Today, the Emperor and the Empress are coming. If we continue as usual...

Behind closed doors, if I conjured something out of thin air, not to mention what the Emperor and the Empress would think, who knows what kind of rumors the servants in this mansion would spread outside the mansion, and it's even harder to say what kind of trouble that would cause!

They might guess now, but guessing is just guessing, after all, they haven’t really seen anything.

Therefore, some things should not be known by too many people, so it is better not to let too many people know! "

"Yep!"

Madam Xue, the first and second ladies all nodded at the same time.

Leng Rongyue continued, "We won't be taking anything out here today!

We went straight to the big kitchen in the mansion.

When the time comes, I will say that I will cook myself, and ask the cook and the kitchen helper to prepare everything and then leave.

Send Qingyi and the others to guard outside.

My grandmother and aunt were sitting inside for me.

Anyway, as long as I don’t take out the things I make in the space after I’m done, the temperature and taste will not change no matter how long it takes.

We just need to put on a show in the big kitchen, and then put everything that is made in the big kitchen into the space;

Then move the things in the space outside and put them on the table, and everything will be perfect!"

"What a great idea! Let's do it!"

Seeing that it was still too early, Leng Rongyue thought for a moment and said to her grandmother and two aunts, "Grandma, eldest aunt, second aunt, it's still too early. Grandpa and the others haven't arrived at the palace yet. It's still too early for the separation!

Grandma and aunt can go and rest for a while."

Leng Rongyue lowered her voice and said, "After all, entertaining the Emperor and the Empress will be quite exhausting, right?

Yue'er first went into the space and slowly made things.

When the time is almost up, grandma and my two aunts will come with me to the big kitchen. We'll make some noise in there, then cook a few dishes properly. Finally, we can swap the ones in the space with those in the big kitchen, isn't that enough?"

"Well, okay, but Yue'er will have to work hard!"

“Grandma, Yue’er is not tired!

Now, grandma and aunt are going to rest for a while, and Yue'er is going back to her room first!"

After saying this, she winked playfully, making Old Madam Xue, the First Madam, and the Second Madam all laugh.

"Okay, let's go!"

Old Madam Xue reached out and gently stroked Leng Rongyue's little face, nodding and saying.

"Yes!"

Leng Rongyue knelt down and bowed, turned around, walked out of the flower hall briskly, and returned to her own courtyard with Qingyi and the others.

Madam Xue, her mother-in-law, and her daughter-in-law watched Leng Rongyue's back until she was out of sight. The eldest lady then instructed the maid to go to the main kitchen and pass on a message: "We have an honored guest visiting the mansion today. The main kitchen only needs to prepare all the fish, meat, and vegetables. Don't worry about anything else!"

"Yes, Madam, I will pass the message on right away!"

Caixia quickly went to the kitchen to pass on the message.

The first and second wives then accompanied Old Madam Xue back to the back hall.

Leng Rongyue returned to her own courtyard and directly instructed the Qingyi people, "The Emperor and the Empress will be visiting the Duke's Mansion today. Right now, I need to think carefully about what dishes to prepare for lunch.

You all stay outside. No one is allowed to disturb me until I come out!"

"Yes, young lady, I obey your command!"

Qingyi bowed and accepted the order.

Leng Rongyue walked into the room, closed the door tightly, and went straight into the space.

While Leng Rongyue was busy in the space, the court session began in the palace!
