The Resplendent Farming Apothecary - Chapter 911

[Chapter 911 Holy Will]

When the guests saw that they were sitting in the flower hall at this time, but the noble couple, the emperor and the queen, still couldn’t understand? The four old painters forcibly restrained the excitement in their hearts, and were a little uneasy.

Regardless of their painting skills and artistic conception, these artists are equally famous. On the surface, they are very polite and harmonious, but in fact, they are full of energy in their hearts, and they all want to press each other on this rare occasion. The result is a tie vote!

The little genius doctor showed the painting to the sage, and the first place at that time was hand-picked by the sage. This is similar to the hand-picked champion. That person is almost the number one scholar in the painting and calligraphy circle appointed by Jinkou Yuyan! Can you not be excited?   Gu Ye held the painting again and said with a smile: “The emperor said that several of them are masters in the painting and calligraphy world, and there is no doubt about their painting skills. If you insist on

choosing one, it is just a personal preference!”

In the eyes of everyone’s expectation, she finally announced that the old painter surnamed Zeng who painted landscapes won by one vote, and the rest were equal votes. With a wave of Gu Ye’s hand, he decided that the other three calligraphers and painters were tied for second place, and they all enjoyed the second-place prize.

The four old painters are very satisfied with the result. The youngest of them has passed the age of knowing destiny, and the oldest is approaching the age of old age. With the aging of body functions, various diseases begin to appear. There are little magicians who can tailor-made pills or medicated meals for them, and they can suffer a lot less pain.

They were fortunate to have listened to their family’s advice and came to the party. In normal times, it would be difficult for them to see the little genius doctor. The emperor clearly forbade them to disturb the little genius doctor easily. In addition, the gate of Prince Ning’s mansion is notoriously difficult to get in, and ordinary relationships may not be able to get in.

I heard that King Ning also posted a post to several other old guys. Those old guys pretended to be arrogant because of their identities. I wonder if they will slam their heads against the wall when they hear about the success of this party?

The following banquet made them feel that it was worth it. Quan Niu Banquet does not mean that all the dishes are made of beef, but it is an eye-opener for them. They never knew that beef can be eaten in so many ways!

Sauce Beef, Braised Beef, Spiced Beef, Boiled Beef, Spicy Cumin Beef Strips, Braised Beef in Pot, Roast Beef with Potatoes, Beef Stir-fried with Onions, Beef Stew with Tomatoes, Beef Tenderloin with Black Pepper, Pan-fried Steak, West Lake Beef Soup…

Even the corner offal can be delicious. Like braised beef tendon, which is soft and rotten, it is liked by old friends; spicy beef face meat, let the guests know that beef face can also be eaten, and it is so delicious; cold and spicy noodles, who would have imagined Such a delicious cold dish is actually made of beef tongue?

There are also thousand silk tripe, spicy beef louver… The beef miscellaneous soup has also gained a lot of fans. You must know these ingredients in the past, these powerful and high-ranking officials, have always been dismissive. And the chef of Prince Ning’s mansion turned the rotten into a miraculous, and he kept it clean and delicious!

In addition to various types of beef, fresh and various vegetables are also popular at the banquet. In winter, there are really too few vegetables to choose from. If you have a hot spring village, you can also grow a few kinds of green leafy vegetables. But cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplants, beans… These vegetables all appeared at the banquet, making the guests suspect that they had a fake winter.

Popular on the banquet table, there are all kinds of fresh seafood, such as abalone, ginseng and wing belly, there are everything, big lobster, sea crab, not to mention the size, and the cooking methods are also novel. In Qingfeng Building, the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, which could not be booked half a year in advance, has a large altar on each table, making those long-awaited gluttons satisfied.

After-dinner snacks, there are only things you can’t think of, there is nothing you can’t eat at your banquet! Fresh melons are enviable. The guests only hated the one stomach they were born with less, and they could only look at the many delicacies later on—because their stomachs were so uncomfortable, they couldn’t eat them anymore.

At the end of the banquet, Gu Ye had to distribute a Xiaoshi pill to each of them. I am really afraid that some gluttonous guests will eat something wrong at her banquet. Alas, if I knew earlier that I wouldn’t do so many kinds, who would have thought that these high-ranking officials and dignitaries would be like this—they couldn’t control their appetites!

Emperor Shengde went out on tour in micro-clothing, and he only brought Eunuch Li Shun with him besides the guards. Dine in the palace, so many eyes staring at it, no matter how delicious the dish is, you can’t eat it for the third time, it is simply… annihilating nature, extremely unreasonable!

Coming out today, I was finally able to have a happy meal, and Emperor Shengde even threw off his cheeks and ate hard! However, there are so many kinds of food, every taste is absolutely perfect, he can’t taste every dish for the third time at all, just… he’s full!

Not only Emperor Shengde, but almost all the guests regretted that they had a small appetite. Some dishes were just tasted, and they couldn’t last until the end!

Seeing that his wife and children were eating happily, Emperor Shengde waved his hand: “Reward!”

The word reward was not given to the master of Prince Ning’s mansion, but to the cook who cooked these delicacies. Everyone who participates in the cooking will be rewarded with 12 taels of silver!

For these twenty or so tables, Aunt Guangyan would definitely not be able to do it alone with someone in the small kitchen. She also specially invited the most ace chefs from Qingfeng Building to come to the rescue.

Many dishes at this Quan Niu Banquet are new dishes. They not only learned a lot of new skills, but also gained an unexpected joy – the emperor’s reward! These 12 taels of silver, they are going to take home and offer, this is not ordinary silver, it is rewarded by the emperor of the ninety-five, and it has a special meaning!

Although the servants of Prince Ning’s mansion had been busy for a long time, they were very happy. Not only did they receive the silver reward from the master, but the remaining dishes from the banquet were also rewarded to them.

You know, many dishes at the banquet are almost the same as those that have not been touched. The dishes that the nobles raved about are tantamount to amazing food for them, and after eating it, it is like a dream.

Because there are so many dishes left, even the servants who sweep and feed the horses are all given a dish. Like those masters who waited on the maids and maids, they were even more rewarded. When a few people gathered together, they could almost make up a table of banquets! The servants of Prince Ning’s mansion were as happy as the New Year at night.

Prince Ning’s mansion was the first banquet in many years, which made the elites in Beijing talk about it for a long time. The guests who were fortunate enough to receive the post to attend the banquet, especially the female guests, would take the trouble to tell the “full cow banquet” over and over again like a show off.

When the little girls got together, there was more talk about picking fruits and vegetables with their own hands. When I got home that day, many elders discovered that their daughters (granddaughters) not only ate them, but also held them—the melons and fruits they picked were really sweet!

Those who have no chance to participate can only listen enviously and guess the deliciousness of those dishes that they have never seen or heard of from the descriptions of others. They already know that there are members of Princess Ning in Qingfeng Building, and they are always paying attention. If Qingfeng Building gets a cow one day, they can almost break the head for a dish!

Gu Ye, the “initiator”, looked at the cost of the Quan Niu Banquet unhappily: “Oh! I won’t hold such a party again in the future. I don’t want to talk about it, the key is that it’s too expensive! Those guests are too expensive. If I can eat it, I have eaten up two whole cows! There are other expenses—husband, my heart hurts, my liver hurts, and my flesh hurts!”

“How much money I spent, I’ll just supply you!” Ling Juechen felt that his daughter-in-law was too small. The appearance of a fortune fan is so cute.

Gu Ye didn’t comfort him: “Isn’t all your money mine? It hurts, it hurts, it hurts so much! And my conservatory, it’s so badly ruined, you ask for leave tomorrow, and quickly help me restore the vegetables and fruits. Plant it!”

“Okay! Go and see the gifts you received, and your heart may not hurt. Not to mention, the works of the Yuan family and the four calligraphy and painting masters can be sold individually. Back to the original!” Ling Juechen pinched his little wife’s nose.

Gu Ye threw the ledger aside and looked at another gift list. In terms of the social class of Prince Ning’s mansion, those who can receive posts are either high-ranking, or royal relatives, and most of their families have a background. It was the first time for Ning Wangfu to entertain guests in more than 20 years. How could he be so embarrassed to take out a gift that was too low?

Although the gifts are all cultural relics, antiques, calligraphy and painting treasures, jade jewelry, etc., but its value is there. The gifts from dozens of families added up – Gu Ye calculated in his heart, and suddenly his heart stopped shaking, his flesh stopped hurting, and his waist straightened:

“If it hadn’t been too hard to hold a party, I would have wanted to do this professionally to make money, and the money came too quickly? Let me think about it, all rabbit feasts, all deer feasts, all sheep feasts, all game feasts…”

” It’s okay, okay! I don’t lack your money, why are you so obsessed with money?” Ling Juechen couldn’t bear to be tired of his wife, and he spent several days thinking about the menu, and then he had to soak in the kitchen to try the dishes… Even if he can earn gold and silver, he won’t do it!

Gu Ye thought about it, except for the two years she just wore, she really didn’t have any money to spend in this life: “Maybe… it’s the troubles you’ve gotten used to in the past life, right?”

“What past life, this life?” Rong He The eldest princess came in and asked with a smile.

Gu Ye panicked for a moment, but when her husband held her hand, he quickly calmed down. She smiled and said: “Mother is here, let my mother judge. Is it a blessing from a previous life to marry a good daughter-in-law like me?”

Princess Rong He was stunned at first, as if surprised by her thick skin , but still very cooperatively said: “Yeah, our stinky boy must have been a good person in

his past life!” “I must have done a lot of good things in my past life and cultivated a lot of good fortune. Otherwise, how could I meet such a good mother-in-law? What?” Gu Ye made an “ok” gesture to her husband behind his back, and successfully passed the test.
