Chapter 1987: The Emperor also loves to eat at the Su family's buffet
The news that the Su family was going to have a wedding spread very quickly.
The shop owners of all the wedding gift shops, big and small, in the capital were all smiling happily.
Red paper, red candles, big red lanterns...
The spot goods are cleared out directly, and there are also large orders.
Now that Su Xiaoliu’s wedding is done, we have to get Dapan and Erpan’s weddings done, right?
Xia Siya and Princess Linghua are both quite old and are considered old maids in the capital.
The husband's family is anxious to marry a daughter-in-law, and the wife's family is also anxious to marry off their daughter.
Tang Bao led the embroiderers in the embroidery workshop to rush to make wedding dresses overnight, while Su Dasao and her sisters-in-law were busy preparing betrothal gifts, drawing up the wedding banquet menu, and sending wedding invitations to each family...
Fortunately, with Su Chengyao's previous experience of "passing the imperial examination and having a happy wedding night" as a comparison, although the wedding was prepared in a hurry, no major mistakes occurred.
Everyone has experience, right?
King Xiaoyao naturally also had a mansion in the capital, and Princess Yunshuang moved there directly.
As for the newly promoted prince Su Xiaoliu, although the emperor gave him a mansion, it had not yet been renovated, so he used the courtyard where Princess Yunshuang lived in the Su family as his new house.
Neither Su Xiaoliu nor Princess Yunshuang had any intention of moving out of the Su family.
It is natural for a family to live together.
On the day of Su Xiaoliu's wedding, not only did the Crown Prince Xuanyuan Jin come to congratulate her, but even the Emperor Zhengde came, which gave the Su family enough face.
When the officials and their families in the capital, both big and small, heard that the emperor and the prince had arrived at the Su family, they all flocked to the Su family.
Regardless of whether there is an invitation or not, they went to ask for a glass of wedding wine. Could it be that the Su family would not entertain them?
They had heard that when the Su family was in their hometown in the countryside, they would hold a banquet whenever there was a happy event.
It is said that although the Su family's buffet was rough, it was extremely delicious. Even the emperor could not forget it after eating it.
They also wanted to taste the feast that the emperor had been thinking about so much and see what the difference was.
Besides, what if I could get a chance to show my face in front of the emperor?
Not only that, those people who admired the iron-faced general also spontaneously ran to the gate of the Su family and said a few words of blessing with sincere faces.
They sincerely wish General Tiemian and Marquis Yingwu a happy and long-lasting marriage.
After all, this couple are heroes of Dayan!
Old Man Su was not vague either. Seeing this situation, he simply asked someone to set up a large iron pot in the yard.
"Have a buffet!" Old Man Su loudly ordered the steward, "Set up tents here, there... and outside the gate... and set up the banquet..."
Old Man Su gave a series of instructions, and all the people who came to congratulate him were invited to stay for the banquet, no matter if they were from an official family or common people.
The people who came to congratulate were even happier when they heard that the Su family was holding a buffet.
He was so happy that when he saw that the servants of the Su family were too busy, he stepped forward to help.
Especially those who lived nearby, they ran home directly to move tables, chairs and benches, and attracted many adults and children along the way.
For a moment, the Su family’s gate was crowded with people, children running and adults laughing, it was very lively.
In the yard, more than a dozen large iron pots gurgled and emitted fragrant aromas, cooking pork stewed with vermicelli, meatballs, and boiled pork...
General Yang came over after smelling the food, and he couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He said with emotion, "Finally, I can have this again!"
He hadn't had a buffet at the Su family for several years.
He didn't lack the meat, but for some reason, he just thought the Su family's buffet was delicious.
Besides, was that a feast he was eating?
General Yang looked at the lively scenes inside and outside the door. What he was eating was the laughter of the people and the fireworks of the world!
After listening to the old general's words, Lord Xia nodded repeatedly.
He misses it so much too!
I not only miss the Su family's buffet, but also miss the days when I had banquets in Daliushu Village.
There was no intrigue, no deception, no bloody storm in the court, only the sincere laughter of the villagers around, simple and pure.
The joy of eating meat and the love of life made him miss it for a long time.
Old Man Su laughed heartily and said loudly, "Isn't it easy to have a bite of this? I hope they can have a buffet like this when they get married!"
To be honest, he also likes this kind of meal.
The banquets in wealthy families are very exquisite.
Although the table was filled with delicacies from land and sea, everyone was too reserved and the food didn't seem very interesting.
The banquet started soon, and the distinguished guests were served the exquisite dishes originally planned.
In particular, the meal for Emperor Zhengde's table was prepared by the chef under the personal supervision of Mrs. Su San and Tang Bao.
The safety of the emperor is related to the country and the people. Food should not only be delicious in appearance, but also safe in nature.
Originally, the Su family did not expect the emperor to come in person, let alone prepare a special feast for the emperor.
As a result, the emperor not only came, but also stayed for the banquet.
This was the Su family's honor, but it also made everyone in the Su family extremely alert, fearing that something might go wrong.
Tang Bao simply transferred all the soldiers and guards from the Princess's Mansion over here.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Xuanyuan Jin said to Tang Bao.
With Xuanyuan Jin by Emperor Zhengde's side, Tang Bao naturally doesn't have to worry about Emperor Zhengde's safety.
But, brother, why are you coming to the kitchen?
"Brother, please go stay with Uncle Emperor." Tang Bao said.
Xuanyuan Jin: "...Okay, I'll come see you again in the evening."
Tang Bao: “…”
Why did you say it so carelessly?
Tang Bao glanced at her third sister-in-law carefully.
Mrs. Su pretended not to hear.
But I couldn't help but murmur in my heart, it would have been fine if my sister-in-law was young before, but now she has reached the age of marriage, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is running into her yard in the middle of the night...
Forget it, both my sister-in-law and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know their limits.
Besides, the two are already engaged.
I just don’t know if my parents-in-law can keep my sister-in-law at home for a few more years as they wish?
Looking at the Crown Prince's appearance, it seems that he doesn't want to be separated from his sister-in-law for a moment.
In the front yard, General Yang is highly respected. Both in terms of age and status, he is the best choice to accompany the emperor to the banquet.
However, as soon as General Yang saw the dishes on the table, he immediately frowned.
Bird's nest, shark's fin, birds and beasts... the presentation is beautiful, the portions are small and exquisite, but they are nothing like the dishes in the big iron pots outside.
How could this be possible? Where's his pork and vermicelli stew? Where's his meatballs? Where's his blood tofu stew?
"Well, Your Majesty, I haven't eaten at the Su family's buffet for many years. I really miss it. I have the audacity to ask Your Majesty to allow me to eat outside." The old general stood up and said to Emperor Zhengde.
Emperor Zhengde: “…”
Is there a buffet outside?
Emperor Zhengde stood up.
"On such a joyous day, I shall rejoice with the people."
After Emperor Zhengde finished speaking, he was the first to walk out.
General Yang was happy and hurried to follow.
"This old minister accompanies the emperor."
Lord Xia was also happy.
"I will also accompany the emperor."
When Prince Cheng'en, Prince Ning and others saw him, they all followed him out.
What a joke! The emperor is out, how can they sit in the house and have a feast?
