Xie Qizhou first greeted the sisters, and then nodded and greeted Gu Shenru alone.

Sweet brother puppy, it really seems like Xu Ting.

After introducing each other, Guan Yan asked Butler Kong to bring in the two bottles of wine that Ruru brought, and they finally entered the chess and card room on the far left side of the first floor.

The mahjong has been arranged into the mahjong machine in advance, so you can start playing right away.

The birthday gift that Ruru brought was a ruby ​​necklace and earrings from Harry Winston, pomegranate color, very beautiful.

She has more and more jewelry.

Guan Yanruru sat face to face.

Xie Qizhou sat on Ruru's right, and Gu Shenru also sat on Guan Yan's right.

Xie Qizhou would call Ruru "sister" and talk to her to make her laugh, and then feed her fruit.

Gu Shenru was no less impressed. With another man trying to please him, he no longer felt like doing the exercises. His desire to perform skyrocketed, and he became a direct assistant to Guan Yan.

He is one of those people who is very talented in mahjong. He plays less but is very good at it.

Just a few words made Guan Yan laugh several times.

Ye Zi and Xiao Xiao looked at Ru Ru and Xie Qizhou feeding her fruits to make her laugh, it was so sweet.

Guan Yan had Gu Shenru, the military advisor, who gave him advice from time to time and made him a lot of money.

After playing N rounds.

Ye Zi was the first to lose his temper: "I suddenly don't want to play mahjong with you two. Why don't I have any family members?"

Xiaoxiao also said: "Ye Zi, I feel like the two of us together are enough."

Guan Yan found their expressions funny and could only turn around and say, "Shen Ru, let's give them some ground. They look like they're about to cry."

Gu Shenru said obediently: "Okay, I will continue to practice the questions."

Then he put his right hand to his mouth and made a zippering gesture.

After playing mahjong, we went to the yard to eat barbecue. There were two new chefs, one cooking Western food and the other cooking Chinese food.

Today's barbecue was made by the two of them together, and the ingredients are all top-notch.

The freshly grilled rib-eye steak is of visibly good quality, M9+. The outside of the steak is caramel-colored, but when cut, the inside is a beautiful pink. The fat and lean parts are evenly distributed and the taste is delicate. The chef stands opposite and grills it, and you can eat it after it is grilled.

The thick-cut beef tongue fat is very rich in flavor and tastes amazing with just a little bit of rose salt.

The texture is soft and tender, full of juice, and has no fishy smell at all.

The beef ribs, diaphragm, and underbelly each have their own unique flavors.

Guan Yan thinks the most outstanding dish is the sea urchin and beef chawanmushi. The steamed egg and sea urchin are both silky and have a very good taste. It can also relieve the greasiness of the beef and is a perfect match.

Guan Yan remembered something and said:

"Ruru, I've chosen the gardens: Shaoguang Courtyard and Jinxiu Hall. Both are quite suitable for the mansions in the novel. The only thing we need is a bigger and more exaggerated one to serve as a royal palace."

After all, the male protagonist is a very favored prince, and there are a lot of words about the palace. Guan Yan still wants to restore it as much as possible.

"Okay, I'll tell my dad when I get home that any larger gardens will be auctioned off. My garden is already the largest you can buy on the market."

"Sister Yanyan, the food, clothing, and daily expenses in your script are so exaggerated. Do we have to reproduce them all?"

Ye Zi has read the script, which is not much different from the novel. The adaptation has also simplified the few flaws in the text appropriately, and the degree of restoration is as high as over 90%.

The author's writing style is actually quite good, and the title sounds like a Mary Sue novel.

But the heroine is a highly educated woman in modern times, and is the only child raised as an heir by her wealthy father.

Although he is hot-tempered, he is wise, shrewd and resourceful.

Since it is a time travel through a book, with a God's perspective and an imaginary dynasty, there is no need to worry about changing history.

The heroine uses modern knowledge to improve people's livelihood, and works with the hero to crack down on corrupt officials and support the young emperor to gradually become stronger.

In the end, the heroine became the most admirable person in the entire Xia Dynasty. Her achievements were all written into history books, and the emperor was ranked behind her.

In the later period, the male protagonist mostly plays the role of a virtuous wife who hands the knife to the female protagonist. This is a truly exciting story with a strong female protagonist.

but.

Since this is a novel, there is no need to consider the dynasty issue. Qiuqiu can write about the food, clothing and other expenses as extravagantly as possible.

Even the maids in the palace wore clothes made of Xiangyunsha.

You can imagine how rare the material the master wears is.

Apart from Guan Yan, no one else can make a drama at such a high cost.

"Yes, I can try to restore it as much as possible. The author wrote about more than 30 kinds of intangible cultural heritage in this novel. I have researched a lot of them. After seeing the things of our ancestors, I really don't want to replace them with shoddy things. If I make a movie and it becomes popular, maybe it can promote our country's traditional culture."

She wanted to go shopping in Gan Tang because there were things that interested her in the pictures that Sister Jing sent.

"I'm really looking forward to it. I can't believe how good this drama will be. But Sister Yanyan, the cost you invested is too high. It's very likely that you will lose everything."

Guan Yan wouldn't tell Ye Zi that she wasn't afraid of losing out, she only said, "Please have some confidence in our traditional culture, okay? This script looks like it will be a hit."

After careful consideration, Jiang Ruru said, "Have you chosen the actors? Do you need investment?"

Although there is a high possibility of compensation, after all, the two gardens Yanyan bought for her family cost nearly 4.5 billion yuan in total.

"I don't need to invest for now. It may seem like I'll lose money, but the investment isn't a one-time thing. The garden can be used as a scenic spot and tickets can be sold after filming. I can still take the costumes and accessories home and keep them as collections. What's there to be afraid of?"

Otherwise, why would she clear out the third floor? Of course, it’s for the treasures.

"I'll leave the casting to Yi Qiuqiu and the director. She'll know which ones are most like her character. After looking at the faces, she'll screen them and give the director the final roles. This month will be over."

"That's right, I did manage to sneak out two bottles of good wine from my dad's stash. You guys should try them later. You can't buy them outside."

Ye Zi's eyes lit up: "Drinking is allowed. I heard from my sister a long time ago that your father's hidden wine is very good, but I can't drink it. Anyway, we are at Sister Yanyan's house. If we get drunk, we can drink as much as we want."

Guan Yan is really a novice when it comes to drinking. She can usually only drink some low-alcohol special drinks, but she loves to drink.

He also looked expectant: "You should be sober now, right? I've been eating for quite a while."

The cute little Xiaoxiao also looked at Ruru.

Ruru nodded: "Okay, half an hour is about enough."

How can I stay awake for hours every time?

Guan Yan asked the butler Kong to take out the decanter.

At first, she just sipped a little bit while holding the highball glass, and only took a sip after she felt it was good.

From the first sip to the last, the mouth is filled with the taste of black cherry, and the full body of the wine fills the mouth, like taking a big bite of rich and juicy flesh, mixed with a hint of tobacco. The later you wake up, the more obvious the characteristics of the wine become and the better it tastes.

So, Xiao Xie and Xiao Gu watched helplessly as the four drunkards became more and more drunk and successfully got themselves drunk.

Tipsy? Not happening.

Fortunately, Guan Yan had someone arrange bedrooms for the three of them in advance.
