Chapter 66 66. Laba

Seeing him leave, Yin Canwen wanted to follow him, but as a foreigner, he trespassed into the yard of a woman who had not left the pavilion, and it was not appropriate to go anywhere, so he could only suppress his thoughts and sip the tea in the cup.

The Bai family's carriage came not too slowly. This time it stopped directly at the side door. After briefly saying hello to Fourth Uncle Bai and Bai Siruo, Feng Jinyao hurried back to Ning'an Courtyard.

By chance, the brother and sister entered the house one after another.

After standing in the corridor and waiting for a while, Feng Jinyao changed her clothes and transformed into that noble lady from aristocratic family again.

Ayao

"I wanted to go with him on a whim. Second brother, don't blame your cousin."

Feng Er looked at her helplessly. He also knew how big his sister's ideas were. If Feng Jinyao didn't want to go, even Bai Siruo couldn't pull her away with nine horses, so he wouldn't bother to argue with her anymore.

Feng Jinyao, on the other hand, had a serious look on his face and Feng Er asked in a low voice, "Did you bring Mr. Yin back to the house?"

"how?"

Its nothing, he is a man of real talent and learning. My father and elder brother will definitely like him if they see him.

This is true, but unfortunately, they will go back to the academy after sitting for a while, and I'm afraid they won't be able to wait until their father and eldest brother come back.

"It is difficult for a poor family to produce a noble son. If Mr. Yin is in trouble, it would be better for my second brother to help him more."

In fact, Feng Er knew what to do without her explanation.

Being friends with him is sincere, and it is also for the benefit of the family. Seeing that Yin Canwen has a bright future, being kind to him will help the Feng family and even the Bai family gain more allies in the court in the future.

Feng Er is not stupid, he is like a bright mirror in his heart.

"In a few days, the academy will have to close. I have already told my eldest brother that I want to take him to live at home, which will save him from traveling back and forth to Cangzhou. If there is an accident on the road and he is unable to catch up with the Spring Festival, he will suffer so many years of hardship. If you read it, it will be in vain.

Feng Er's plan is good, and Feng Jinyao also appreciates it. Besides, her eldest brother and father are here, so she will naturally entertain this distinguished guest. The most important thing is that everything she plans will be more logical.

Wen Mengsheng, spend your last New Year's Eve well as a couple, and you will not be alone on the road to hell.

Thinking of this, two shallow dimples appeared on the lips, looking cunning and playful.

After three heavy snowfalls in winter, the eleventh year of Tianqi in the Jin Dynasty officially came to an end.

On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, every household smells of the faint smell of porridge.

The Feng family, since its elder sister-in-law Wen took charge of the family, this is the first time it has taken a leading role, so naturally it does not dare to relax.

Before dawn, I saw her already arranging the cooking of Laba porridge in the kitchen.

In winter when the weather is cold and freezing, drinking a bowl of warm porridge is the best way to stimulate body fluids and replenish qi.

The glutinous rice had been prepared a long time ago, and there were also selected red beans, peanuts, lotus seeds, red dates, longans, etc. in the pot. Thinking that Mrs. Feng's health was not yet fully recovered, she also added tangerine peel, ginseng and other traditional Chinese medicines. It can not only maintain the spleen and stomach, but also increase appetite.

The cooks had never met Grandma, but they had met Zhu Jin, the maid next to her, a few times. They couldn't figure it out for a while, so they came forward to please her and asked, "Grandma, the porridge is almost ready. Do you want it?" Dont you want to try it first?

Wen looked at the boiling Laba porridge in the pot and knew it was almost time.

"Hibiscus."

"yes."

Zhu Jin stepped forward and took out a white porcelain bowl and scooped out a little. Wen took a few bites and found that it tasted good, so she glanced appreciatively at the cook in front of her.

"You did a good job, go and get the reward." When the cook was praised, there were more wrinkles on her face.

"Distribute it out in the yard. Mother doesn't like sweetness, so just send it over. Third sister likes sweetness, so bring some brown sugar powder with you. It's convenient if she wants to add more."

"Yes. Grandma is more careful. You know the taste of the family better than the slave."

He said a few compliments and hurried to share the Laba porridge.

In the white porcelain cup was placed the freshly baked Laba porridge, on the plate was the candied garlic prepared by Wenshi, and three or two yellow-colored fried dough sticks, which had just been fried and were at the right time of crispiness.

The portion is not much, but it is best paired with Laba porridge.

Soon, the maids from each courtyard who came to carry food boxes came in twos and threes.

Seeing the grandma standing in the kitchen, she felt a little embarrassed for a moment. It was the hydrangea next to Feng Jinyao who interrupted the embarrassment first. After bowing to Mrs. Wen, she took the food box and took the first step.

The girls behind them filed in and then left.

There was smoke in the big kitchen. The cook and the maids and servants who had been busy all morning, not only ate Laba porridge, but also got some rewards. Therefore, everyone in the house was very happy that this grandma was in charge of the business.

Going forward, the wind should blow in this direction towards the big house courtyard which is usually deserted.

In Ning'an Courtyard, Yun Xu is waiting for Feng Jinyao to wash and dress up. The soft silver and green lily skirt matches the swaying steps of the clouds and temples, which complements her beauty and adds to her grace.

Today is the Laba Festival, which is the day when the Fahua Temple attends the temple fair. Half a month ago, the Bai family's aunt sent a message saying that she was going to attend the festival today. Mrs. Feng's health is not yet fully recovered, and Mrs. Wen has to take charge of the house. Therefore, Feng Jinyao had no choice but to follow.

Its natural to dress up.

Now that Wintersweet has caught Feng Jinyao's eye, she went into the inner room from the outer courtyard to serve her, but she couldn't touch her personal matters, so she only helped Hydrangea get breakfast outside.

When taking the food box, Xiangqiu saw the brown sugar powder and couldn't help but smile.

Grandma is very considerate and knows that the lady loves sweetness, so she specially prepared some powdered sugar.

Feng Jinyao smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is really attentive."

Feng Jinyao has only been relaxed for a few days since she took on the responsibility of being a housekeeper. Some people are born to be housekeepers, such as Wen. She can easily remember all the trivial things, and she is so meticulous that people have to admire her. .

When I opened the food box, the aroma was fragrant.

After eating half a bowl of Laba porridge with fried dough sticks, the woman waiting at the door sent someone in to say that the Bai family's carriage had arrived.

Tell the aunts that I will be there immediately.

"yes."

Going to the temple fair today is the first time in Feng Jinyaos two lifetimes.

In her previous life, she had a loose temper and did not like to join in the fun. After getting married, she mostly stayed in the yard and did not go out. At that time, she occasionally went out under Wen Yuwei's instigation to interact with the family members of dignitaries and temple fairs that common people loved to go to. She had never experienced this before.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart, told Xiangqiu to stay at home, did some chores in the yard, and went out with the cloud catkins and wintersweet.

The carriage that came today is quite spacious, and the two aunts from the Bai family, as well as Bai Siruo and Feng Jinyao can all fit in it.

The maids followed the carriage so that their master could summon them.
