Chapter 28 It's time to hand over the public food
"Madam, Qian'er's house was really given to the young master. If you don't believe me, go and investigate it yourself. Marquis Tongwu is at the scene."
"If it doesn't work, just go and ask His Majesty. Your Majesty will witness this matter in person!"
"Even though that kid is only five and a half years old, he has a very good brain. I accidentally fell into his trap!"
Zhang Han stood at the door and explained with a grimace.
Outside the door, a servant in coarse linen clothes walked past with a broom, without even glancing into the room. He was obviously used to it.
Lao Zhang wants to cry but has no tears!
"Hmph! Did you grow your head to eat shit? You let a child fool you, and you have the nerve to tell me?"
"My Qian'er is about to get married. If you give the house away at this juncture, what will I do with my Qian'er then?"
The more Wang talked, the angrier she became, and the tea cup in her hand fell to the ground.
"Click..."
The tea cup shattered at the sound, and Zhang Han jumped up in fright.
"Madam, don't be angry. When your son gets married, you can stay in the palace for the time being, but you can't offend the prince, otherwise our family will suffer a lot!"
"Actually, sending the house away is not completely without benefits!"
"Bah! What's the benefit of giving away a good house to someone else? Are you an old man with water in your head?"
"Madam, listen to me...!"
Zhang Han walked to Wang's side strongly and calmly, helped him sit down and rest, and began to analyze, "I told you just now, the young master is a strange person, and his future in the palace is limitless. If we give the house away
If we give it to him, he will always ask for our favor, does that make us closer to each other?"
"What a f*cking favor? I got potatoes in exchange for it, so why should I ask for your favour?"
Wang swung his arm and knocked Zhang Han off his feet.
In order to calm his wife down, Zhang Han was not angry. Instead, he squeezed out a stiff smile and continued to greet her, "Hey! Madam, look at what you said, even if he doesn't appreciate it, the house is opposite our house, and the neighbors are neighbors.
We live there, and our house can smell the steamed fish across the street, do you think our house can avoid getting some light?"
"Even if we can't get it, we still have two precious daughters in our family. They are about the same age as that boy. They look up and look down, and they will have feelings for each other for a long time. Maybe they can become princesses in the future!"
"Okay, you old man has actually decided to target your daughter. One of our two daughters is six years old, and the other is only four years old. Why do you have the nerve to say that?"
However, his words did not calm down Wang's anger. Instead, they added fuel to the fire, making Wang's temper even more irritable, pointing at his nose and scolding him.
"lady……!"
Zhang Han patted his wife on the chest and continued to persuade: "It is because our two daughters are young that I say this. If they are older, when the boy grows up, our daughter will be thirty years younger, so there is no chance!
"
"The crown prince has not yet been decided. His Majesty is in good health. All the princes may ascend to the throne. Even though the young master is young now, he may be the most promising in the future!"
After saying that, he gave Mr. Wang a "you know" look.
He didn't dare to say anything treacherous, but the meaning behind his words was already obvious!
Ying Zheng is no longer the sick man he was before, and he may live for another ten or twenty years!
By then, that boy will be in his teens or twenties, in his prime, so it is not impossible for Yingzheng to pass the throne to him!
"Ha ha……!"
Wang's eyes rolled around twice, as if she was thinking about something. After a moment, she suddenly laughed, "You old bastard, so that's what you had in mind!"
"Okay, I'll send someone to deliver the house deed to you later!"
It is probably everyone's dream to have their daughter marry into the royal family.
She is not stupid either. Now that she has this opportunity, she will not let it go!
If the young master can really become the emperor in the future, then her grandson will be the prince, and their family will not have to worry!
"call……"
Seeing his wife turning to leave, Zhang Han breathed a sigh of relief.
This level has finally passed!
When he agreed to give the house away, he didn't think much of it. He was simply forced to give it away.
These words are all made up on the fly in order to get through!
Now that I think about it, giving the house to that boy seems not such a bad thing!
Zhang Han happily gave himself a thumbs up in his heart!
"Ahem...! It's time to pay the public food!"
"good!"
"Ah...? Hand over... hand over...?"
Zhang Han was still immersed in his own wit and responded subconsciously, but then he reacted.
Looking at the madam's broad back gradually receding, she had a sad face.
Pay public food?
Better kill him!
…
As night fell, the sky was filled with stars, and candles were lit throughout the palace.
The two little eunuchs ran quickly, looking for candles that needed to be replaced!
If one burns out, their butts will probably bloom!
"Father, do the royal chefs in the palace really know how to cook other things besides steaming?"
In Ying Zheng's palace, the young lady stood in front of the table, looking at the dishes just delivered by the imperial chef, with her mouth flat and a look of disgust.
"Feiyu, the royal chefs in the palace are all the best in the country, so don't be picky!"
Lian'er, wearing a plain long gauze dress, walked over slowly and rubbed the little guy's head.
"Mom, I'm not picky, it's just that these dishes are tasteless!"
The little guy opened his arms for a hug and kept mumbling.
"You can tell the imperial chef what Feiyu likes to eat and let them cook it, and I will also take advantage of it!"
Ying Zheng sat in the main seat and spoke.
Thinking of the crispy outside and tender inside of grilled fish, spicy and delicious taste, his mouth watered!
Compared with the dishes in front of me and that guy's grilled fish, they are really different!
"Alas...! Forget it, I don't even have an iron pot, what can I do?"
"Let's just settle down for now, and let's find someone to make an iron pot tomorrow!"
Xiao Zhengtai sat down at the low table in frustration.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in my mind!
Although there were no iron pots for cooking in later generations in this era, there should have been copper tripods or clay pots.
It’s not bad to put it on the charcoal fire and make a hot pot!
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhengtai's eyes lit up and he stood up suddenly, "Father, how about... how about we have a hot pot dinner tonight?"
As a foodie from a later generation, I am quite good at cooking home-style hot pot.
But now the conditions are limited, so I can only cook a low-profile one!
"Hot pot? What is hot pot? Is it delicious?"
For Ying Zheng, this is definitely a new word.
But looking at Xiao Shota's excited expression, you can tell that this thing is not simple!
"Is it delicious? Remove the word "?"
“Hot pot is always delicious, so delicious!”
Xiao Zhengtai said dancing happily.
“Better than grilled fish and instant noodles?”
"A small witch can see a big witch!"
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's get it done!"
Seeing Mrs. Zheng's excitement, Ying Zheng also became interested.
"okay!"
"Uh...! There's something that might not be easy to handle!"
After getting the answer, Xiao Zhengtai jumped up happily.
Chapter completed!
