After He Xiaodie left, Yu Zhi was depressed for several days. Even if you keep a cat, you will have feelings after a long time, let alone a human.

Okay, she admitted that she didn't just want a bodyguard for He Xiaodie, but she wanted to train a manager who could go out for her. Shiliu and Lianwu were pretty capable, but they didn't know how to do it.

As for martial arts, you are bound to lack confidence when walking outside.

When she met He Xiaodie, Yu Zhi's eyes lit up. He knew martial arts, and there was a fierce light in his eyes. He was determined not to suffer any loss if he was let out. The most important thing was that he was young, only fourteen years old, and he could still teach it with hard work.

How great your hopes are, how great your disappointments will be.

Soon Yu Zhi no longer had time to brood. She and Wen Jiuxiao moved to the Pingbei Hou Mansion. Even if they didn't hold a housewarming party, they still had to treat a guest and tell everyone in the capital that they were opening a house on their own and let everyone know.

adapt to their new identity.

The banquet was just about eating, drinking and having fun, so didn't everyone think her background was not good enough? Many people were probably secretly poking at her, waiting to see her joke. How could she make people laugh? She had to slap her face back.

Even if she is a little lazy, a little outspoken, and lives her life as she pleases, Yu Zhi is still capable. She can sit firmly in the position of Madam Hou and will not embarrass Wen Jiuxiao.

If you want to host a banquet, you must have your own highlights. Yu Zhi has already thought about it. What she is best at is growing flowers, so let’s invite everyone to enjoy the flowers. It’s still cold in spring and the flowers haven’t bloomed yet, but Ping Beihou

The flowers in the house can bloom! She can really create a sea of ​​flowers for them.

As for where the flowers come from? Aren't they in the flower house in the big courtyard in the east of the city? Not enough? Just promote the birth, and Xiaolu should also do some work.

With the scene now, tea, snacks, and dishes are easy to prepare. Just follow the popular trend for tea. After all, her family, Mr. Xiaowen, is an upright official and cannot afford high-quality tea. You can use your brain for snacks and dishes. Soft cakes, milk

A woman can't resist the fragrant milk recipe, right? By the way, there's also milk tea, which young girls will definitely like.

As for the dishes, we can’t go in the direction of delicacies from the mountains and seas. Just use ordinary ingredients and work hard on the taste and presentation. They look good and delicious, but don’t make people feel luxurious. It not only highlights her ability and ingenuity as the hostess, but also

Don't let Mr. Xiaowen in her family get into trouble.

Perfect, she is such a smart and capable wife.

Yu Zhi spent two days writing a plan that was dozens of pages long, with pictures and text, and all aspects were taken into consideration.

After Wen Jiuxiao looked at it, he looked at Yu Zhi for a long time and was speechless. This woman was usually lazy and was most interested in eating and drinking to make herself happy. He knew that she was smart, but he didn't expect that she was so smart.

Obviously she has never learned to be a housekeeper, but no matter when she lived in the Wu'an Marquis Mansion before or now, the servants have behaved themselves and there has been no trouble.

She has only been with her mother a few times, and now she is even familiar with hosting banquets. The plan she wrote is so comprehensive that even the master who has accumulated years of money and food cannot compare. If she is born as a boy,

He can definitely hold the official seal of one party.

"Very good!" Wen Jiuxiao praised.

Yu Zhi said: "There are two problems now. One is that our house is short of manpower, and I am going to borrow people from my mother. The other is that I cannot recognize all the ladies who come."

Not only did she not recognize them all, she didn't know them at all. Of course, there were also people who made a deep impression, such as Mrs. Qin, the wife of the Chief Assistant, and her daughter Qin Lan, and Bai Zhenzhu who spoke ill of her behind her back.

Wen Jiuxiao said nothing, waiting for her to continue. Since she could write such a comprehensive plan, she would definitely have a countermeasure.

Sure enough, I heard her say: "Originally, this is my first banquet, so I should ask my mother or sister-in-law to accompany me to welcome the guests, but I don't want to trouble them both." Yu Zhi's eyes were very candid, "After all, it is

When we are having a banquet at the Pingbei Hou Mansion, whether it is the mother or the sister-in-law, they represent the Wu'an Hou Mansion. Although they are a family, it is not easy to mix together. Third Master, what do you think?"

She is the hostess of Pingbei Hou Mansion. As long as her mother-in-law or sister-in-law help her welcome the guests that day, her efforts will be in vain. No matter how successful the banquet is, others will only think that it is the credit of her mother-in-law or sister-in-law. Because they

I don't believe she can handle the banquet well.

Since Yu Zhi has worked hard, he will not let others pick the fruits of his labor.

Wen Jiuxiao nodded, "Mother has to take care of the house, and sister-in-law has to take care of eldest brother and sister Hui. There is a pregnant woman in their room, so they have no time to spare." He has already married, started a business, and lives alone, so naturally he doesn't want anyone to interfere in his house.

thing, "What does that Zhizhi mean?"

Yu Zhi said: "I want to borrow the help of Mrs. Wang who is by my mother's side. She can give me some advice and I can recognize her."

"Okay." Wen Jiuxiao thought this method was feasible, "Do you want me to go tell my mother?"

"No need." Yu Zhi refused, "I can just tell my mother myself. You don't need to worry about the affairs of the inner house." If he went to tell his mother-in-law, her mother-in-law would definitely have objections to her again, and she would probably hit her in a roundabout way.

, how can you let men worry about the affairs of the inner house?

When the time comes, she will definitely pretend not to understand, and it is her mother-in-law who is holding her breath. Forget it, she should be a good daughter-in-law and stop being angry with her mother-in-law.

Wen Jiuxiao looked at the smile that suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth. Although he didn't know why she was smiling, based on his intuition, he guessed what she must be thinking at the moment.

Mrs. Hou must be worried about such a big event like a banquet at her son's house. She is especially worried about the third daughter-in-law, who doesn't know anything and must not be embarrassed?

"You..." Mrs. Hou just started, and Yu Zhi handed over the plan, "This is my daughter-in-law's humble opinion. Mother will see if it suits her and whether there is anything that needs to be added or modified."

Mrs. Hou watched carefully for more than half an hour. Yu Zhi was not impatient and sat eating snacks leisurely.

After Mrs. Hou finished reading, she looked at Yu Zhi with a critical eye, "Did you think about it yourself?"

The whole process of the banquet, how to arrange it, how many people to use, who is responsible for what... it is all clear. Not to mention someone who has never hosted a banquet, not even Mrs. Hou herself may have thought so carefully.

.

Yu Zhi nodded calmly, "Yes! What's so difficult about this? My daughter-in-law and her mother went to visit us a few times, and they found that it was just about admiring the scenery. We all ate, drank, talked, and prepared toys for those who wanted to play.

, and if you like to write poems and paintings, just prepare pens, ink, paper and inkstones, it’s very simple.”

Mrs. Hou looked at her and saw that she took it for granted. Her mood was complicated. She had been taught to be a housekeeper before, but she was as clueless as a stick, but now she was able to organize a banquet in a clear and logical manner. Could it be that the third son's family was there?

Is he quite talented?

However, it makes sense, but I don’t know if it can actually be implemented? Mrs. Hou reached out and opened the plan again and asked: "With so many flowers, can they be supplied?"

"Yes, my daughter-in-law has opened a flower shop with two flower rooms, which is enough."

"What are these cakes and milk cubes?" Mrs. Hou continued to ask.

Yu Zhi blinked and said, "My daughter-in-law tried to make some. Mom, can you try the taste?"

Yingying, who was standing behind her, immediately opened the food box. Yu Zhi picked up a fresh knife and cut a small piece of cake. He held it up to Mrs. Hou with a fork, "This is the cake, mother, try it."

Mrs. Hou tasted the cake, which was soft and delicious, with a subtle sweetness. She nodded slightly, "It's quite novel." Then she tasted the milk cube, which melted in her mouth, and the rich milk flavor filled her lips and tongue.

The cake just now was amazing.

"Both of these are novel snacks. Young girls should prefer them. You have some ingenuity." Mrs. Hou said calmly.

Yu Zhi said proudly, "If I don't hide it from my mother, my daughter-in-law likes to eat delicious food. Isn't it time to cook up a few snacks?"

Mrs. Hou...

I have never seen anything so delicious.

Yu Zhi didn't care what Mrs. Hou was thinking, and took the opportunity to propose to pick her up, "Mother knows that my daughter-in-law doesn't know a few of the ladies from each government. To avoid making a joke, my daughter-in-law would like to use your mother Wang.

She is an old man who has been with you for decades. If she is there to give advice to your daughter-in-law, your daughter-in-law will not make any mistakes."

After a sudden thought, he added: "Originally my daughter-in-law thought, it doesn't matter if she doesn't know anyone, she has a mother, doesn't she? If not, she also has a sister-in-law! She was scolded by the third master before she even raised her head. The third master

He said that your housekeeper is already very tired, and your daughter-in-law is not allowed to trouble you. If you scold your daughter-in-law, she will be lazy. As the hostess, how can you push the affairs of your house to others? Mother, please comment, how can you and your sister-in-law be other people? We

We are a family!" He looked aggrieved.

He directly blocked what Mrs. Hou wanted to say next. Looking at her indignant look, Mrs. Hou was not sure whether she was really stupid or pretending to be stupid. Ruoyi, the third daughter-in-law, might not have thought of this level, that is, the old man

That's what San means... The third child doesn't want anyone else to interfere in the affairs of his house, even her mother!

Mrs. Hou didn't know what she felt in her heart. Her eager heart became cold and dejected. Since the third child didn't want her to interfere, she had no choice but to do as he wanted. The third child was still alienated from us after all.

Yu Zhi successfully borrowed someone and returned home happily. There were still many things to do. She had to let everyone in Beijing know that she was actually a virtuous and capable person.
