"Furthermore, even if An Yunji has outstanding military achievements, how he will reward his merits and whether he will be given real power or not is a matter of a word from the commander. There is absolutely no reason to favor his adopted son and suppress his biological son."
"It is clear that I am humble in my position. Commander Xiang is now letting Na An gather to charge into the battle. Firstly, he wants to protect you, and secondly, it is just to make the best use of the material. The emphasis at the celebration banquet is just a warning. The commander of the crowd, no matter how close he is, only cares about his merits. "
"At this time, the commander of the cabin pays more attention to him. If An Yunji makes even the slightest mistake in the future, he will be criticized by everyone. "It's unacceptable."
"After all, Commander Xiang is also paving the way for you."
Cultivate good generals, become your right and left hand, and use their loyalty and effectiveness to consolidate Anjia. Imperial status.
As for what happens in the future...
An Jingzhong squinted his eyes, "The word "adopted son", "chess piece" and "abandoned son" all depends on his mood."
"Commander Wise." Zhang Mingxin smiled more and more.
The two people spoke in a low voice, and the surroundings were very noisy. They were not worried that others could hear them.
But at this time, the breeze was blowing softly, and Lu Qiyan's ears were extremely strong, but he managed to catch a rough outline of the conversation between the two.
Adopted son, chess piece, abandoned son...
These six words seem to simply describe a person's life.
Lu Qiyan pursed his lips and his eyes darkened.
After a moment, his eyebrows were raised and his eyes were as bright as a torch.
In this case, he might as well tear up the principles and principles of this world and start over again!
——
Dexin Garden is brightly lit and the servants are busy.
Dinner on the Mid-Autumn Festival should not have been so late. It was just because the old woman had some insomnia last night and went to bed a little later. However, she still opened her eyes on time when she woke up in the morning. By mid-afternoon, she was extremely sleepy. I slept until dark in one breath.
After I woke up, I felt groggy and lacked energy. Only after walking around in the garden for a long time did I arrange for someone to serve food.
The meals were served on the table one after another.
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Even though the old lady was the only one eating, she still served four meat and four vegetables, four hot and four cold, two soups and two desserts.
The table is filled with dazzling arrays of colors, flavors, and flavors that make people salivate.
What is placed in the center is today’s protagonist-mooncakes.
Just as Luo and Wang planned, they cut the snowskin mooncakes with mung bean paste and red bean paste into bite-sized pieces, and decorated the plate with preserved fruit, osmanthus and fresh fruits. Very exquisite and beautiful.
Even the old lady, who had a poor appetite, became energetic when she saw such snowskin mooncakes. She took a piece of it with her chopsticks and put it into the bowl in front of her without waiting for the maid around her to prepare the dishes.
Soft and glutinous, sweet, fragrant and delicious...
“It tastes good.” The old lady nodded, “It looks quite rare, where did you buy it?”
“Back to me, old lady. "People." Maid Biyun said, "When we were setting the meal, my maid was also curious, so she asked the kitchen about the snow-skin mooncakes. It’s not bought from outside, but made by Lady Luo and Lady Wang in the kitchen.”
“Make it by yourself?” Come here alone so that I can give you a reward." "Yes." Biyun agreed and asked the maid at the door to pass the message.
After a while, Mrs. Luo and Mrs. Wang came quickly, with faces full of joy. They knelt down and saluted the old lady, "Good luck, madam." "Say, you two made these mooncakes?"
"Exactly," the two agreed hurriedly.
"The taste is good, but there is a little too much tapioca flour in it." The old lady said.
Tapioca flour?
Luo Shi and Wang Shi secretly glanced at each other and winked.
"It is true that some tapioca flour was put in. If the old lady doesn't like it, the younger ones can put less in the future." Luo Shi replied hurriedly.
He was thinking about telling the matter to He Shunzi.
"Yes." The old lady put down the chopsticks in her hand, with a displeased look on her face, "When she got in front of me, she lied again and again. I really don't know where she got her shame."
"Go and call the steward over, kick these two thoughtful women out, and don't let them be used anymore!"
Seeing that the old lady was angry, Biyun did not dare to delay at all, and hurriedly called for Manager Fu.
But Luo Shi and Wang Shi were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They didn't know what went wrong and couldn't stop kowtowing to the old lady and begging for mercy.
After a while, Manager Fu came in a hurry. He first ordered people to take Luo and Wang out, who were crying bitterly, and then hurriedly apologized to the old lady.
"Old Madam, please calm down, it is the old slave who has failed to discipline me well, and actually let the two of them buy food from outside to fool the old madam."
Manager Fu said with a look of shame on his face, "Please invite me, too." Don’t worry, the old slave will drive them away and ask a capable cook to do the work.”
"It doesn't matter whether the food is bought from outside." The old lady raised her hand and looked at Manager Fu, "No matter what kind of food, it is made by people. The food bought from outside is also eaten by outsiders. They eat it." Yes, my wife can certainly eat it.”
“I just bought food from outside and pretended to be my own, and took the credit from my wife. Now that I think about it, this is really disgusting. The two cooks are both from Jinqiu County, and the food they cook on weekdays are all local flavors. They will cook very rare food wherever they go. I think the ice powder last time was also obtained from outside. "< br>
The shame on Steward Fu’s face became more and more intense, “I asked carefully just now and found out that it was indeed obtained from outside. I also ate some before, but I didn’t ask more. It was my fault. Please ask me "Punishment is not necessary, as long as you do your job well in the future," the old lady said, "If you are looking for a cook again, just look for someone who works hard and has clean hands and feet." , In today’s chaotic world, it’s not easy to find a good cook. Let’s take our time and look for her.”
“Yes, thank you, Madam.” Manager Fu smiled repeatedly, “Old slave. Don’t disturb the old lady’s meal now.”
"Yes."
After Manager Fu left and the room became quiet again, the old lady picked up the chopsticks again.
Biyun was serving dishes aside and said, "The old lady asked Manager Fu to find a cook again, but this Jinqiu County is a borderland after all, and in a remote and remote area, I'm afraid I won't be able to find a good one. It's better for the servant to call two people from home to serve the old lady, and the food can be made more exquisite."
"Since I came here to hide in peace, if I call people from home again. Come here, don’t you want those unsightly people to come here to bother you?”
The old lady immediately expressed her disapproval, “The land and water support the people, and we have to live here for a long time. , just have a taste of the flavor here." (End of Chapter)
