Only one table was set up in the main hall of the main house this time. In addition to the two eunuchs, there were Lord Xu and Lord Gao, Captain Li, the village chief and He Yao, as well as Shen Ping and Wuchun, a total of nine people.

At the strong request of Eunuch Gui, Shen Ping put on a lady's dress made of gold-threaded nanmu satin with a blue base and gold edges. Shen Ping was tall to begin with, and the dress made her look even more noble. She also wore a hairpin ornament on her head, which made her look graceful and elegant, and awe-inspiring without even showing any emotion.

Some curious ladies knew that Shen Ping had changed into this dress, and they crowded at the door to watch. They didn't expect that this Dachun Niang was so beautiful. Wearing this dress, she looked just like the ladies in the storytelling.

Hong Gu could only disperse them and ask them to have the banquet. Then they remembered and quickly sat down, waiting for the banquet.

Dachun and Sanchun each had two tables. Dachun's table was mainly occupied by the shopkeepers and Mr. Mo and his friends, while Erya and Siya were also there to keep them company.

After all, they are not ordinary women now, they have also entered the business world. However, men and women sit at separate tables. Dachun and Sanchun sit at the same table with the shopkeepers and Mr. Liu.

As for Erya and Siya, they sat at the same table with Madam Mo, Mo Ruwen, and Mr. Liu's third concubine. Butler Shi and his nephew went to Dadong's table.

Shi Saner was not idle when he arrived at this time. He went to the kitchen and saw Si Ya busy making snacks. Without saying a word, he rolled up his sleeves to help.

When he was in the shop, he would come over every now and then under the pretext of buying snacks for Mr. Liu, and sometimes he would go directly to the kitchen to help. After this many times, Si Ya got used to it.

Tong, her grandson, and Wu's father Wu Da were accompanied by old Li, and there were also grandchildren from the same family. Wu also sat here with her baby in her arms.

As for Zhang Sanniu and Sanfang, they are busy in the kitchen now, and the meal will be served in the kitchen later.

The delicious dishes on this table made the two eunuchs amazed. Eunuch Gui was a favorite of the emperor. He asked himself that he had eaten a lot of imperial meals, but how could they compare to the dishes here of Madam Shen.

He took a piece of chicken and found the skin was crispy and the chicken meat was salty and fragrant. The more he chewed, the better it tasted. Eunuch Gui closed his eyes and couldn't help but exclaimed: "This dish should only be found in heaven. It's rare to get drunk on it in the world."

Shen Ping laughed and said, "Eunuch Gui, you are too kind. Since you like it, I will pack a portion for each of you when we go back."

Shen Ping's words hit the mark of Eunuch Gui, who smiled and said, "Okay, okay, thank you very much, Lady Yu."

There is also this braised pork platter. Even Eunuch Lin, who doesn't eat pig intestines, couldn't help but take a piece after hearing Eunuch Gui say it was delicious.

Thinking that it didn't have that unpleasant taste, but was salty and chewy, he ate several pieces in a row, which made Eunuch Gui very happy.

The last things served were dim sum. Looking at the two plates of dim sum, the white ones were crystal clear, and the green ones were like emerald green. They were sweet but not greasy, smooth and chewy, which surprised Eunuch Gui and made him praise them profusely.

You know, he ate a lot of snacks from the imperial kitchen because he was the eunuch beside the emperor. Occasionally, the concubines and noble ladies would give him snacks to curry favor with him, but none of them were as delicious as the snacks here.

This meal really broadened the horizons and satisfied the appetite of Eunuch Lin and Eunuch Lin.

Seeing that the two eunuchs were in a good mood, Shen Ping stood up, raised her glass and toasted them with a smile: "Eunuch Gui, Eunuch Lin, let's have a drink. I don't have anything delicious to serve, so you have to be patient. Come, I'll drink first as a show of respect." As she said that, she covered her face with her sleeves, raised her head and drank it all in one gulp.

"How can that be true? The dishes on Ms. Yu's table are no better than those in the imperial kitchen." Eunuch Gui exclaimed in admiration.

Watching Shen Ping drink it all in one gulp, Eunuch Lin was surprised: "I admire you~I admire you..." At the same time, he raised his thumb, his rosy face full of admiration. This Mrs. Yu was tall and had three-dimensional features. Although she could not be called a great beauty, she did have a unique temperament.

Compared to those timid, delicate and artificial women, Madam Shen can be said to be a woman who is as good as any man. I never thought that this seemingly inconspicuous farm woman is so generous and as forthright as any man.

Eunuch Gui also raised his glass and said, "Ms. Yu, you are really not an ordinary person. You don't have the shyness and pretentiousness of an ordinary woman. You really have the demeanor of a great general."

"Yes! Eunuch Gui is right." Lord Xu said, and he also raised his glass: "I would like to offer a toast to the two eunuchs. Thank you for your hard work."

Eunuch Gui and Eunuch Lin also smiled, picked up their glasses and drank them all.

Eunuch Lin looked at County Magistrate Xu and smiled mysteriously: "Master Xu, you are also responsible for Lady Yu's contribution. You have heard some rumors that there will be a transfer order in the near future. Please be patient and wait."

County Magistrate Xu's eyes lit up: "That's great, it's all thanks to the two eunuchs!"

The two eunuchs smiled knowingly: "Hahaha ~ Lord Xu is really good at talking."

The county magistrate also raised his glass and said to County Magistrate Xu with a smile, "Then I would like to congratulate you in advance."

County Magistrate Xu also responded while holding his wine glass: "I would also like to congratulate Mr. Gao in advance."

The county magistrate was slightly stunned, then he reacted and smiled awkwardly: "Sir, you are joking."

"Hahaha~"

The man looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

Shen Ping felt her face stiffen, and she kept rolling her eyes in her heart: "What a bunch of hypocritical people, including myself, I have no choice but to be hypocritical."

Thinking of this, Shen Ping suddenly lost her appetite. She made an excuse that she had to go out for a toast and slipped out.

I went outside and saw that everyone was busy feasting. The busy work in the kitchen had finally come to a halt and people were eating there.

Shen Ping suddenly thought of Shen Yang. She was so busy today that she forgot to tell Hong Gu about it. She didn't know if that guy had eaten yet.

With an idea in mind, Shen Ping walked towards Wuchun's house.

Shenyang was very hungry at the moment. Suddenly he heard footsteps and quickly sat back on the bed.

"Knock knock knock..."

There was a knock on the door. Shenyang didn't know who it was and hesitated whether to speak. A voice came from outside the door: "It's me~"

Hearing that it was Shen Ping's voice, Shen Yang let down his guard and opened the door.

Seeing Shen Ping standing outside the door with empty hands and wearing the gorgeous lady's clothes, she raised the corners of her mouth, clasped her hands together and said mockingly: "It is really disrespectful to call you Lady Yu, who was bestowed by the Emperor~"

Shen Ping's mouth twitched: "You have very sharp ears~ By the way, did Hong Gu bring you anything to eat?"

Shenyang raised the corner of his mouth and sneered, "Not yet! You guys are so good, eating and drinking well outside, you forgot about me."

"Pfft!"

Shen Ping covered her mouth and chuckled: "Tell me, what do you want to eat? Today I'll make an exception and satisfy your stomach."

Shenyang's eyes lit up: "Really! Well, I want to eat pig's trotters, pig's intestines, and chicken!"

Seeing the way he speaks now, he really looks like Si Ya, like a half-grown child, not at all like the cool and handsome appearance he had at the beginning.

Shen Ping laughed and said, "You wait!" Then Shen Ping turned around and walked out.

After a long while, when Shen Ping came back, she had a tray in her hand, on which were pork trotters with ginger and vinegar, a braised platter and salt-baked chicken, as well as two steamed buns and a big bowl of rice.

She didn't bring these things over openly. In order to avoid arousing suspicion, she just went to the kitchen and toasted those people. She saw that there were still a lot of leftover dishes in the kitchen, so she slipped them into her sleeves and put them into the space when no one was paying attention.

Shen Ping put the tray on the table beside her and looked at Shen Yang, who was obviously very hungry. He swallowed his saliva at the dishes, but still pretended to be reserved and didn't even blink.

Shen Ping saw through it, but she didn't expose it. She just couldn't help but think to herself, "Shenyang, Shenyang, how many sides do you have? Which side is the real you?"

She didn't believe that Shen Yang had lost his memory. Perhaps it was because he had many unknown secrets. Otherwise, why would he be hunted by a masked man? He pretended to have lost his memory just to protect himself.
