The flowing water banquet at Lu Sheng's house was finally set up, and everyone was in a hurry to go back. Lu Ji had not opened the door for several days because of this.

Lu Yuzhu came to visit twice more. The little girl who had been domineering since childhood seemed to have seen the truth of life for the first time, and her dream of being pampered was shattered. She looked a little haggard, and her eyes were no longer as high-spirited as before, but rather evasive.

Lu Sheng didn't bother to talk to her, and stayed away every time he saw her coming. Lu Yan laughed angrily at this family.

Knowing that Lu Sheng refused, he stopped coming to the door and asked the girl to do the hard work on her own. This was to see if they would be soft-hearted and leave him alone.

The night before the Lu family packed their things and prepared to leave, Lu Yuzhu came for the last time. With tears in her eyes, she asked the Lu family: "Can you take me away?"

Lu Yan found it quite strange. Are you tired of being a pet all your life and want to break off the leash and run for freedom?

Lu Yan stopped what she was doing, walked up to her and asked her, "What on earth do you want to do? Our family doesn't support idlers."

Lu Yuzhu's voice was choked with sobs: "If you can't be my concubine, you can just let me be your roommate. Let me go with you."

Lu Yan was speechless: "You want to know what you know and I can consider finding a job for you, but you have to go into Lu Sheng's room? He doesn't want to add people to his room now."

Lu Yuzhu looked at Lu Yan blankly: "But I can't do anything. My parents said before that I don't need to learn anything. I don't need to know anything. I will only be pretty. As long as I can marry well, Just let others do it.”

It was really hard for Lu Yan not to laugh at such remarks, but she always reminded herself that this was in ancient times, and this was the way the thinking here was.

Lu Yan said coldly and politely: "Then you can go home and be pretty. Our family has no use for it." Even pets in the Lu family are useful.

The little girl walked away lonely.

Lu Sheng stood behind Lu Yan at some point and said softly: "I thought you would be soft-hearted. You never want to see others suffer."

"Our whole family doesn't want to see anyone suffering." Lu Yan corrected: "The problem is that she didn't suffer at all! She was raised like this with good food and drinks at home, and she seemed quite happy herself, so we didn't need to save her. Understand, bless and respect.”

The Lu family drove back to the county the next day.

He Wenjing sent Chen Xinghai back to Zhuangzi without stopping, the Lu family returned to the Lu family, and Lu Yan returned to Lu Ji with the spring equinox, winter solstice and twelfth lunar month.

When they arrived at Luji, Lu Yan couldn't help her tendency to be a teacher again, and she asked a few people to talk about her experiences: "You guys have hosted such a big banquet. Let's talk about what you gained."

Equinox thought for a while: "Master, I deeply understand the difference between hosting a large banquet and having guests order a la carte."

Lu Yan raised her eyebrows: "Tell me more!"

Spring Equinox explained: "There are many people and many dishes at a banquet. People eat less than two bites of each dish, but they have to eat a lot of dishes. Therefore, banquet dishes should pay more attention to whether they look good at first sight and whether they are good-looking at the first bite. Isn’t it amazing?”

"When ordering in a restaurant, you order a small variety of dishes, but you have to eat a lot of each. Therefore, the food in a restaurant should pay more attention to the aftertaste of the dish, and also consider the heat preservation of the dish."

"If some dishes are amazing when you first taste them, you will feel tired after eating too much, or they will become bland the more you eat them, or they will taste worse when they are cold. Such dishes should be used less in restaurant recipes and more in banquet recipes."

Lu Yan couldn't help but applaud: "You have thought carefully." Equinox's thinking is getting closer and closer to that of a store manager.

Lu Yan turned to Lu Yue again: "You also helped in the kitchen for three days. Do you have any ideas?"

La Yue pondered for a while and whispered: "I don't have much experience, but I realize that preparing dishes still requires experience and exploration. If you want to serve the dishes faster, you have to prepare the dishes in advance. But prepare more dishes and less. There are also things to pay attention to. If you prepare too little, you will have to repeat the work. If you prepare too much, it will not be used up and it will become stale. So you still need experience. "

Lu Yan nodded with satisfaction and turned to Winter Solstice. During the winter solstice, I was not busy in the kitchen. I was always busy outside.

Lu Yan asked: "Winter Solstice, please tell me."

The sentiments of the Winter Solstice are shocking: "Women still have to be promising! Otherwise, they will be given to others as concubines by their families!"

Everyone was silent. Lu Yan expressed her full affirmation of Dongzhi's ability to summarize affairs: "That's right, you are so good at focusing on the key points!"

After staying in the county for two days, Song Bowen also came to see Lu Sheng and Lu Yan. Song Bowen's whole body relaxed, and he said happily: "I will get married in August this year, and you probably won't be able to come back."

Lu Sheng and Lu Yan said congratulations, and Lu Yan said: "We probably won't be able to come back, but you can bring your wife to the capital in the future. Lu Sheng, Chu Tiankuo, and Xue Zhuoyuan are both in the capital."

Song Bowen agreed: "I will definitely go, and I guess it will be soon. Mr. Liu has been transferred to the capital, and Chu Tiankuo has also taken up a post in the capital. I guess good things will happen for the two families soon. Chu Tiankuo I will go when I get married to Miss Liu. And when you two get married, I will definitely go."

Lu Sheng smiled meaningfully and looked at Lu Yan. Lu Yan's eyes were evasive: "That's right, they estimate that something good is coming soon. They shouldn't be far away this time. Ask him then."

It would be better for Chu Tiankuo and Xue Zhuoyuan to take a longer time to clean up, because they took the family members with them and took their parents with them.

Xue Zhuoyuan also brought his maidservant. Lu Yan didn't know it at first, but she saw a maid following Xue Zhuoyuan, busy serving her, and she was extremely considerate.

Lu Yan chatted casually with Lu Sheng and said that she had never thought that Master Xue Zhuoyuan was being unreasonable before, so why did she bring her family to Beijing with her maid this time?

Lu Sheng smiled meaningfully: "That's no ordinary maid."

Lu Yan: "Huh?"

Lu Sheng: "That's his roommate."

Lu Yan spurted out with a puff.
