Chapter 103 Check-in
Wei Ruo answered impeccably, Wei Qingwan had nothing to do with her, and turned to look at Yun.
Yun also felt that the eldest daughter had no problem saying: "Wanwan, you want to learn to wait until you return to the Wei Mansion and let the cook teach you. You should learn your cooking skills soon."
"Yes." After Yun said so, Wei Qingwan had no choice but to give up.
But in his heart, he was still thinking about Mr. Chu, whom he only had a quick glimpse of just now.

After the Wei family's carriage left, Lu Yuhong was still thinking about his mushroom sauce, so he turned to Chu Lan and said, "Brother Chu, haven't you been in frequent contact with Miss Wei's family recently? How about you ask for a can for me next time?"
"What are you talking about? If you don't know, you may think that I have some affair with Miss Wei."
"No, no, I mean, didn't you send Nanny Qin to help Miss Wei's family deal with the reclamation of the wasteland in the south of the city? The relationship is considered close. If you ask, it shouldn't be a problem to ask for a can of mushroom sauce, right?"
"Brother Yu, when will you get rid of your gluttony?" Chu Lan asked in a teasing tone.
"It's probably impossible in this life. My two major hobbies in life, fighting and food, I can't live without either." Lu Yuhong replied.
Chu Lan couldn't help but smile.
He actually likes Lu Yuhong's temperament quite a lot. Apart from Lu Yuhong's identity, his character is also a big reason for his close relationship with Lu Yuhong.
Simple and straightforward, easy to understand.
"Brother Chu, you also ate it last time. Don't you think that mushroom sauce is very special and delicious? Anyway, I have never eaten that kind of mushroom sauce in Beijing." Lu Yuhong asked curiously.
"It's really special and delicious, but it's not as good as Brother Yu." Chu Lan replied.
He will also like delicious food, but he will not desire it like Lu Yuhong.
Eat what you have, and it’s okay if you don’t have it. I don’t care so much, and I don’t go out of my way to ask someone for it.
"Anyway, I like it very much. Next time, you can ask your nanny to help me get a jar. I won't take her for nothing. I'll just exchange it with her for other things." Lu Yuhong said.
"Understood, next time I will ask Mother Qin to ask you." Chu Lan agreed.
"Okay, then I'll wait!" Lu Yuhong was very happy, with a pure and straightforward smile on his face.
In the promiscuous circle in the capital, it is really rare for Lu Yuhong to be as simple and straightforward as this. But Chu Lan is in the mire of the royal family, and seeing more intrigues, naturally she would prefer to be friends with people like Lu Yuhong.

After walking for a while, the Wei family carriage arrived at a separate courtyard.
The other courtyard belongs to the Xie family, Mrs. Xie took the initiative to ask Yun's to lend the other courtyard to the mother and daughter of the Wei family to live in for a few days.
Mrs. Xie's move solved a major problem for the Yun family. It was not appropriate for her to stay in an inn with one wife and two daughters, and their Wei family did not buy a mansion in Fucheng. They were worried about how to settle down. Mrs. Xie decided Charcoal in the snow.
Mrs. Xie has several shops in Fucheng, and also bought several houses in Fucheng, so that it is convenient for her children and herself to have a place to stay when they go to Fucheng.
Now the Wei family is going to live in this is only one of them.
The nurse in charge of Xie's other courtyard came out to greet everyone.
First I greeted Yun's politely, and then turned her eyes to Wei Ruo. The nurse in charge said to Wei Ruo with a smile: "Miss Wei, my lady asked the old slave to prepare for you the most famous restaurant in Fucheng, Zuixianju. The food and wine, and the Osmanthus wine from Zuixianju, Miss wants you to eat and drink well."
"Thank you Mammy, Mammy is busy." Wei Ruo said.
"Where does it come from, Miss Wei is a friend of Miss Wei and a distinguished guest of our mansion, and it is our duty as servants to take care of distinguished guests." The nurse in charge said with a smile on her face.
Led by the nanny in charge, Wei Ruo, Yun Shi, and Wei Qingwan, who had been traveling for a day, entered the dining hall of the other courtyard together.
Sure enough, the dining room was already filled with a table of sumptuous dishes. According to what the steward said, these should have just been packed from Zuixianju, fresh and hot.
Actually, today's meal was not arranged by Xie Ying, but by Xie Jue, but in order to avoid criticism, I specifically told the nanny that Xie Ying did it.
Looking at the dishes on this table, Yun once again sighed in his heart, the Xie family is really too polite.
Of course Yun also knows in her heart that the preferential treatment given to them by the Xie family is all due to the friendship between the eldest daughter and Miss Xie's family.
Wei Qingwan felt uncomfortable, as if all the preferential treatment they received now was given by Wei Ruo, and they all depended on Wei Ruode. This feeling oppressed her.
Wei Ruo didn't think too much about it, since it was a hot meal prepared by Xie Ying, he had to taste it while it was hot.
She also wanted to know what kind of standard the chefs in the best restaurant in the prefecture were.
After tasting it, I was a little disappointed. To be honest, this chef must be very good. Some dishes are well done, but some dishes are a bit inferior. The problem is not the cooking skills, but the seasoning and spices.
Some braised dishes, without excellent seasonings and spices, will end up with a bland taste.
This discovery caused a thought to flash in Wei Ruo's mind, and then she smiled. If she has enough time and this opportunity this time, she will go to this drunk fairy house.
Wei Ruo thinks the taste is mediocre, but Yunshi and Wei Qingwan feel that the dishes sent by Zuixianju are very delicious, and their cooking skills are much higher than their cooks in Xiaowei's Mansion.
Yun Shi even said that Zuixianju's cooking skills are at the level of big restaurants in Beijing.
Wei Qingwan repeatedly agreed, and told Wei Ruo that when she went to the capital in the future, she would take her to taste the restaurants in the capital.
Wei Ruo just smiled. According to what they said, Wei Ruo felt that the restaurants in the capital were not as good as her family's Meimei's craftsmanship, so she had nothing to look forward to.
After dinner, Wei Ruo went to rest in the room prepared for her. The energy lost on the road needed to be recovered by sleep.
Although Wei Qingwan was much weaker than Wei Ruo on weekdays, after riding in the carriage for a day, when she returned to the wing, not only did she not take a rest immediately, but she asked the servant girl to inquire about Xie Jue's movements.
Cuihe came back immediately: "Miss, Mr. Xie's family is not in this other courtyard. Madam Xie arranged for us and Mr. Xie to be in a different courtyard for our convenience."
Hearing that Wei Qingwan was a little disappointed, she asked Cui He to take a bath and fell asleep.
###
The next day, Yun took Wei Ruo and Wei Qingwan out.
Because there were still a few days before the garden party, Mrs. Yun took her two daughters around Fucheng first, which was a rare opportunity on weekdays.
Wei Ruo: I see a business opportunity!
Wei Qingwan: I want to see that son again!
