Since Shu Qin Yuan changed chefs, the taste of the dishes has improved by more than one level.
Everyone was very satisfied with the meal, and even Princess Fengrong was full of praise for the dessert that was served at the end.
"This almond tofu is made with the taste of a palace chef."
"If Shopkeeper Huang hears what you said, I'm afraid he will die of joy!" Li Zian pulled the rope at the door, and a crisp bell sounded immediately outside.
Soon someone came in and helped everyone rinse their mouths and hands.
At this time, the table had been cleared and good tea was served again.
"Let's have some tea, sit down and rest for a while, and then we'll go wandering around other courtyards."
The courtyard where we ate today is the main courtyard in the middle of Shuqin Garden, and it is also the largest courtyard.
At the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, the yard is filled with chrysanthemums according to the occasion. Chrysanthemums of various varieties and colors are arranged in an orderly manner, making people feel like they are in a whole sea of flowers.
When Princess Rui first arrived, she had already looked at the front and back yards. At this time, she said: "This house is indeed of a certain standard. I think it is better than the gardeners in the palace.
"The new chrysanthemums in the palace's backyard are so messy that they give me a headache.
"I just told them to set it up again early this morning. I really should have asked them to come here and learn a lesson."
As for the affairs of the palace, Shen Tianshu was unable to interrupt and listened quietly from the side.
Hearing this, Li Zi'an said: "If you ask me, my grandmother and mother are usually too tolerant. They are used to these people just doing something to live and feed themselves, so how can they put in the effort to study?
"If you don't do well, you will always use the rules and traditions of the palace to make things happen.
"It turns out that I thought that the gardeners or nurseries outside were far inferior to the royal palace. I didn't know until I saw them more, but my vision was narrowed.
"They rely on this to make a living. If they don't do it well, they won't make money, so they will naturally work hard to study it."
"That makes sense." Prince Rui nodded and said, "So this time you proposed to hire someone from outside to take care of the flowers and trees in the back garden, is it also to make these lazy bugs at home more alert?"
"What's the big deal, if we just change a group of people," Li Zian said, "We have been away from the capital for so many years, and the rules in the palace no longer apply to our Prince Rui's Mansion."
The meaning of these words was so obvious that the room instantly became quiet, and several elders also raised their eyes to look at Li Zian.
In the end, it was Princess Fengrong who was the first to break the silence and said: "What Zhu Qi said is right. The routine in the palace cannot always remain the same, right? It's time to change it."
What was this talking about about the gardener? Hearing this, Shen Tianshu became more and more afraid to speak, and even his eyes narrowed.
Fortunately, a few people did not continue to discuss this topic in depth, and the topic quickly became relaxed again.
After drinking tea and resting for a while, Li Zian took everyone to visit other courtyards.
As soon as Li Zihan went out, he immediately pestered Shen Tianshu.
"Zihan, be obedient and don't make trouble with your sister Shen." Princess Rui wanted to call her to her side.
But Li Zihan grabbed Shen Tianshu's hand and said coquettishly: "Mom, it's okay, sister likes me!"
Shen Tianshu also said: "Princess, it's okay, I'll just accompany the princess."
Li Zihan immediately turned his head and made a face at Li Zian.
This was because she still remembered that Li Zian brought Shen Tianshu to dinner behind her back!
Seeing this, Li Zian said deliberately: "Sister Shen and I will go out together in two days. You can accompany your grandmother to worship Buddha at Tian'en Temple."
As soon as these words came out, Li Zihan was stunned. She had never thought of this before, and then cried "Wow--".
When Shen Tianshu saw the child crying, he quickly bent down to pick her up and coaxed: "We are going out to do errands, not to play. We can't take you there, but we will definitely bring you a gift when we come back, okay?"
Princess Rui glared at her son and said, "Look, you insist on provoking her and making her cry. Are you happy?"
Li Zi
An didn't expect that just because he was joking, his sister would actually cry so hard. He hurried over and said, "Yes, we are going to do something. When we get back, my eldest brother will also bring you a gift."
Li Zihan turned his head and buried his face in Shen Tianshu's arms, refusing to talk to Li Zi'an.
Li Zian had no choice but to lean into her ear and say, "After your sister Shen gets married, you will be able to see her every day."
He said this in a low voice, and only Shen Tianshu and Li Zihan heard it.
Li Zihan perked up as soon as he heard this, with small tears still hanging on his face. He immediately straightened up and looked at Shen Tianshu.
Shen Tianshu blushed at these words, but looking at Li Zihan's expression of wanting to cry or not, he couldn't bear to let her down, so he could only promise in a low voice: "When I come back from the Chen family this time, can I go to the palace to accompany you more? "Z.br>
Li Zihan immediately stretched out his hand and said, "The hook!"
"Okay!" Shen Tianshu reached out and hooked Li Zihan, then pressed his thumb.
Li Zihan finally stopped crying and let Shen Tianshu help him wipe away the tears on his cheeks.
"It's finally okay, let's go see the garden!" Seeing that his sister was finally coaxed, Li Zian quickly changed the subject and said, "Zihan, come down and walk by yourself, don't tire Tianshu."
Li Zihan obediently got down from Shen Tianshu's arms, but still held her hand and refused to let go.
Li Zian didn't dare to provoke this little ancestor anymore, so he walked to the front and led the family to visit some of the more distinctive courtyards in Shuqinyuan.
At this time, all the people in Shuqinyuan had been cleared out, and there were royal guards inside and outside the wall.
Therefore, Prince Rui did not try to be brave and remained in a wheelchair, pushed by his servants.
The chrysanthemums in the main courtyard have been praised by Princess Rui, but Prince Rui is not interested in flowers and doesn't think anything of it.
But Li Zian still has some understanding of his preferences.
After lunch, I took him to see several gardens, which were mostly landscaped with green plants.
Some winding paths are deep, some are green, and some are simple and atmospheric.
Various green plants are placed in an orderly manner to create a variety of different artistic conceptions and atmospheres.
Prince Rui’s two favorite yards are those dominated by bamboo and those dominated by ferns.
Princess Fengrong was slightly dissatisfied with this, feeling that she was too petty and unfit for the royal family.
But considering that my son has been in a coma for several years and finally woke up, he should do whatever he likes!
So after everyone finished shopping, Shopkeeper Huang was called over again.
Shopkeeper Huang came in nervously, not daring to raise his head.
Prince Quetingrui said: "The courtyards you have here are really good, and I like them very much.
"Someone from the palace will contact you later and ask them to go to the palace to help decorate the garden."
Shopkeeper Huang was instantly knocked unconscious by the big pie falling from the sky.
