Xue Chi competes for favor

The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming as scheduled.

Everyone felt dazed.

The old lady and Yongning Hou, the mother and son, were both angry and lost, and were in a bad mood.

The second master refused to come back.

The second wife didn't even want to come back to see the old lady.

The fourth young master spoke very badly.

It was clearly the one who was swept out by them, but he had power in a blink of an eye. The Yongning Marquis' Mansion could not enjoy this power.

Soon, others knew that the second house had a quarrel with them.

Xue Yutan's marriage will not go smoothly because of the second master's development, but may be more difficult.

"What a cheap man." The old lady scolded the second master, "Aunt Tang was not a good person at the time, and the son he gave birth to was also such ungrateful.

He didn't think about who raised him and his children; who helped him get his official position."

When talking about this, Yongning Hou felt ache.

It's Xue Mei.

She helped the second master get the official position.

She obviously admires her father very much, and all her good things should be given to Yongning Hou.

In the past, if Yongning Hou looked at her more, she would be very happy and would try every means to please Yongning Hou.

What's wrong with her now?

Yongning Hou felt that he should talk to Xue Mei.

"Let Xue Mei report back to His Majesty, remove his official position, and make him arrogant! Unfilial people must be unfaithful!" said the old lady.

She really asked someone to invite Xue Mei.

Xue Mei was still sloppy with her and refused to agree.

In addition to the unhappiness of Yongning Hou and the old lady, Xue Yutan was also unable to calm down.

King Yu returned to Beijing, but he did not come to see her, nor did he send her a letter.

Although she was willing to contradict the emperor for her before, but now she is so cold, which makes Xue Yutan have a bad premonition.

"It's Mid-Autumn Festival."

She remembered that she and her third brother planned to kill Xue Mei.

As a result, in a blink of an eye, the third brother died and Xue Mei became the county lord.

Good fortune makes people.

"Since she hangs her, my life has been so bad." Xue Yutan recalled the past and found that everything happened because of Xue Mei's suicide.

Xue Mei is really dead.

No matter what she had experienced, Xue Mei had "dead" in the past.

Now this person is not the eldest lady from the Yongning Marquis' Mansion. The eldest lady knows medical skills at all. Don't her family know about it?

Why don’t grandmother and father doubt it?

Xue Yutan felt that he wanted to tell the matter out and let his father and grandmother deal with this evil ghost.

"If she is possessed by a ghost, she should find a Taoist priest to drive away evil spirits." Xue Yutan thought.

The third master and the third wife were immersed in the pain of losing their beloved son while sitting on a prosperous dream.

Master Qi had a poetry meeting tonight, and he took his daughter out.

"Let's have dinner, we won't be reunited tonight." The old lady spoke.

Xue Mei is very happy.

Who would like to squeeze into Yutangyuan and have a reunion dinner with someone she doesn't like?

In Huining Garden, everyone is making moon cakes.

The pastry "moon cake" first appeared in the Southern Song Dynasty.

There was no such era.

There was a kiln used to make porcelain, but there were no kilns or other things to make pastries.

Xue Mei suddenly thought of eating moon cakes last night, so she made a kiln overnight and left it for ten hours, and it will be available today.

"I love eating fresh meat." Xue Mei said.

She was making stuffing, making her hands dirty.

The maid Hongluan was very direct: "Miss, isn't this a bun?"

Xue Mei: "..."

This maid can't chat anymore, so Xue Mei decided to ignore her.

At night, the eldest brother Xue Chi and the fifth brother Xue Run came as if they were scouting, and both of them were holding snacks in their hands.

The fifth brother brought the date paste that Xue Mei liked to eat, and the eldest brother brought a few dishes and wine.

When I heard that they were baking mooncakes, my elder brother and fifth brother were also very curious.

But after learning about the production process of mooncakes, my elder brother and fifth brother were immediately disinterested.

As Hongluan said, isn’t it just a bun?

Can you still play fancy?

"...Brother, your wine is like water, and it's still sticky to your teeth." Xue Mei said.

Xue Chi: "This is the best osmanthus brew."

Xue Mei: "..."

She remembered again that the strong wines in the Tang Dynasty were actually only about twenty degrees.

Non-distilled liquor means filtering the brewed liquor into the residue and drinking it directly.

Not only does it stick to teeth, it tastes bad, but it is also difficult to increase the alcohol content.

Xue Mei can distille wine.

Distilled liquor was also a technology that was only available in the Song Dynasty. Its wine is fragrant, clear in color, and has a high degree of degree. Once it appears, it will instantly kill all the current wines.

However, Xue Mei neither likes to drink nor lacks money, so she decided to save this skill for the future.

When you need money or other things in the future, take it out.

Xue Mei took two sips of wine, stood up and went to work hard again.

Xue Chi: "What are you doing? Wouldn't it be enough to let the maids do it?"

"I roasted a fish and saw if it's done. It was made for my fifth brother." Xue Mei smiled.

Xue Runweixi: "Give it to me?"

"Last time I went to Wen's house, I thought it was a picnic, so I promised to grill fish for you. The result was not. Later, I encountered Wen Zhao falling into the water and it was not fulfilled." Xue Mei said.

Xue Run had long forgotten about this.

He was a little shocked: "You still remember it for such a long time?"

"It's not long." Xue Mei smiled, "Being a sister, you can't fool your younger brother. This time you can't roast it on the open fire, it's just placed it in the grilling kiln. It's probably not bad, you can wait and eat."

Xue Run was immediately overjoyed and rubbed his hands happily beside him.

Xue Chi glanced at her: "I specially cooked for him, where are me?"

Xue Mei: "I never promised you anything. Besides, haven't you brought the vegetables here?"

Xue Chi: "..."

Xue Run glanced at the elder brother. For some reason, she felt that the elder brother was quite jealous.

"Tsk, how old is it." Young Master Xue Wu despised his elder brother a little, "and he is still competing for favor!"

The grilled fish was put in by Xue Mei an hour ago, and it was even more advanced than the mooncakes.

Now the fish is already ripe.

Because potatoes and carrots were not yet in this era, Xue Mei used some other vegetables to fill it, and a large pot of colorful greenery was pressed down on the bottom.

Master Xue Wu couldn't wait to stretch out his chopsticks to fish, so he burned his mouth without any suspense.

"Slow down." Xue Mei smiled, "No one snatched you."

The grilled fish is delicious and tender, and very tasty, and is much better than what is usually cooked. Master Xue Wu's eyes are bright and he wishes he could smash it into the pot.

Xue Mei and Xue Chi each stretched out their chopsticks, but they were both protested by his young master Xue Wu’s hatred eyes: “Didn’t you say that you did it for me?”

"No eating alone," Xue Mei said.

Xue Wu: “…”

After eating a few chopsticks, Xue Chi admitted that he was even more jealous. The fish was unprecedentedly delicious.

They ate almost the same fish with three handfuls of fish, and when the ingredients were left, the mooncakes were baked.

Xue Mei asked them to taste the fresh meat mooncakes they complained about as "bun".

Because there are no other mooncakes for comparison, fresh meat mooncakes are not considered dark food. After Xue Chi and Xue Run tasted them, they were both surprised.
