Chapter 149

Time flew by, and Mingxiu arrived at the Duke of Rongguo's mansion as promised.

Yan Chi, the eldest son of Duke Rongguo, personally greeted him at the door. When he saw Mingxiu getting off the carriage, he quickly laughed and said, "Your Majesty, Princess Zhaohe, come with me quickly. My mother has been waiting for a long time."

Although he is said to be a young master, Yan Chi is not young yet. Duke Rong Guo is a warrior who gallops on the battlefield and has a great reputation on the battlefield. He is slightly younger than the late emperor and is now almost in his sixties.

Mingxiu was a little flattered to be treated like this by someone who looked like her father. At the same time, she was also puzzled.

"I wonder what Duke Rongguo's wife suddenly posted. What do you mean?"

She really had nothing to do with Mrs. Rong Guo, and had never even met her before receiving the post. Now that she was suddenly invited, Mingxiu felt extremely strange.

Logically speaking, Mingxiu can only be regarded as a new rich man, but Rong Guogong is an old dignitary in the capital. Not only is he powerful, but he is also highly valued by the royal family. No matter why, Mingxiu should feel honored to be invited.

But she didn't feel happy at all, she just felt very strange.

Yan Chi's face stiffened slightly and he looked a little embarrassed, "The Princess of Showa will know later."

Their family is also a well-known figure in the capital, but his mother's strict demands are hard to explain.

It seems to be a bit embarrassing no matter what.

Mingxiu felt relieved when she saw that Yan Chi only felt embarrassed but not malicious at all.

Following Yan Chi's footsteps, he entered the inner residence of Duke Rong Guo and entered the courtyard of Duke Rong Guo's wife.

"Princess Showa."

Mrs. Rong Guogong went to the gate of the courtyard to greet him personally.

"Since mother is here, my son will leave first."

Yan Chi nodded slightly, apologized to Mingxiu and left.

"I'm really sorry to invite you here rashly, but... I have something to ask for." Mrs. Rongguo coughed a little embarrassedly, regardless of whether she had a royal title or not, and how powerful her family was.

, he rashly invited a girl he didn’t know to his house in a semi-strong manner, but in the final analysis it was her fault.

Even though Mingxiu had all kinds of doubts in her heart, where could she see an old man apologize to her?

"It's okay. I'm fine at home. This..."

Seeing the embarrassment on Mrs. Rongguo's face, Mingxiu twitched her lips. For the first time, she realized that she was a person who couldn't speak.

Mrs. Rong Guogong looked at her for a while and suddenly laughed, "I see that Princess Zhaohe is also a kind person. Come and sit down. Although my refreshments are not as delicious as I mentioned, they are still edible. Princess, please try them."

, I would also like to give you some suggestions.”

The siege was finally solved, Mingxiu stepped forward and said, "The dim sum at Guogong's Mansion is naturally excellent, but my family can't match it."

"Your Majesty, you're welcome."

After seeing Mingxiu taste the pastry, Duke Rongguo said, "To be honest, I invite the princess to visit you this time because I have something to ask for."

"Ma'am, please speak."

Mingxiu had already known that he would ask her to speak for nothing, and Mingxiu was already prepared. If Mrs. Rongguo didn't mention it at this time, she would have to ask again.

Mingxiu's straight-to-the-point approach made Mingxiu somewhat fond of Mrs. Rongguo Gong.

"To be honest, my little girl has reached the age of getting married, and the day after tomorrow is the engagement party. My in-laws all love to eat. Mingji's family is the only one in Tongdu City who makes excellent pastries and dishes.

so……"

Because there are not enough staff, generally speaking, Mingji does not offer takeout except for those that cannot be finished and need to be packed away. In short, there is no takeout service.

Because of Xie Zhan's relationship, no one dared to force it, not to mention that Mingxiu was still a newly wealthy princess.

Even if someone is as noble as Duke Rong and his wife, if they want their family to arrange the next banquet, they have to hold a banquet and invite Mingxiu to discuss the matter.

If she doesn't agree, it's really hard for Mrs. Rongguo to force her.

This is not a difficult thing for Mingxiu.

"It's not difficult. I wonder when the banquet will be held in your house? I'll go and explain it to the restaurant later, but there's something a bit awkward and I might have made an oversight. I have to discuss it with Madam in advance."

Unexpectedly, Mingxiu agreed so quickly. Mrs. Rongguo was stunned, smiled kindly, and said, "If you have any difficulties, Princess Zhaohe, just say so."

"My family's manpower is a little stretched. If we want to organize a banquet, I'm afraid we won't be able to turn over the money." Mingxiu pondered for a moment, and seeing Mrs. Rong Guogong looking at her with a smile all the time, she coughed slightly with embarrassment, "In my humble opinion

, how about I bring the cook to the house one day in advance, prepare all the vegetables to be used, cook them on the spot, and let people from your house help, we can be more relaxed."

Mingji Restaurant does not have many people, and those who have been to the restaurant can tell if they are more careful. Before Mrs. Rongguo considered inviting Mingxiu to come, she was worried that she would not agree. This was also a more important reason.

The plan proposed by Mingxiu couldn't be simpler for Mrs. Rongguo.

"It's not difficult. I'm afraid it will be too tiring for Princess Showa."

Mrs. Rong Guogong was also a little worried. She heard that the real chef in Mingji was Mingxiu's mother. Although she had inherited the skills from her family, Mingxiu was too young after all. She wondered whether Mingxiu had such ability.

But there is no way to invite Mingxiu to the door without being polite. This time, it is extremely rude to invite Mingxiu to the door semi-forcedly.

"It doesn't matter. If Madam trusts me, I will handle it properly for you."

Mingxiu really didn't notice Mrs. Rongguo's distrust, otherwise she would have given up her life and left.

Mingxiu didn't stay at Duke Rongguo's residence for too long, and left after leaving a meal.

According to the time given by Mrs. Rongguo, the engagement party for their youngest daughter was very close, and Mingxiu had to prepare many things in advance to avoid being in a hurry.

For example, let’s talk about the people we will bring with us when the time comes.

"Going to the Duke Rong's mansion to hold a banquet?" Ming's mother looked at her daughter with some disapproval, "Where have we ever done this before? If we delay the matter, we will be guilty of a serious crime."

It’s not that she doesn’t want her daughter to gain experience, so she has to do it step by step, right?

The first thing that happened was the banquet at the Duke's Mansion, which was a bit too big.

"Mom, I know it well. Now we just need to decide on the menu and send it to Duke Rongguo's mansion, let them prepare the ingredients, and then choose the cook who will go with me."

The things she decided were always something that even ten cows couldn't pull back, and Ming's mother couldn't do anything to her.

"...You take Sanniang with you and the egret beside you. The handyman in the Duke's Mansion should prepare it for you. Let's see if there are any kitchen utensils to take with you." Ming's mother shook her head, since there was no

The only way to persuade her is to save her from worries.

Mingxiu then smiled and said, "Thank you, mother!"
