Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up
Chapter 587 Letter from Beijing
Soon, Niu prepared dinner, and Shen Ping invited Manager Chen and the drivers to come over for dinner. As they were in a hurry, they didn't prepare any dishes.
Niu steamed a large pot of white rice, fried a large pot of vegetables, stewed a large pot of pork belly and potatoes, cut some braised meat, and put two plates of chili sauce.
Although it is simple, it is delicious. The aroma of the pork belly makes everyone salivate.
"Come on, Manager Chen, are you hungry? I've asked someone to prepare some dishes. Let's eat first and then go!" As she said that, Shen Ping called a group of coachmen.
Everyone was indeed hungry at this moment. They had just eaten something to fill their stomach at noon, and now after smelling the fragrance, they were already rumbling with hunger.
Looking at the dishes on the table, the drivers' eyes lit up. Madam Shen said that the meals were simple, but she didn't know that they couldn't even eat such good food during the Chinese New Year.
Everyone walked to the table and sat down without further ado. Niu brought a large bowl of white rice to the table and served bowls to everyone.
Everyone scooped up some rice spontaneously, sat down and started eating. Suddenly, the only sound was the slurping of food.
Shopkeeper Chen was no longer polite. The pork belly stewed with potatoes smelled delicious, and the braised pork had an attractive color. When dipped in chili sauce, it was really delicious. He ate piece after piece and couldn't stop.
It was the first time for these drivers to eat this chili sauce, and they all exclaimed, how could there be such delicious food in the world.
Shen Ping watched them eat with relish, but in fact she was already hungry. However, she had been trying to lose weight recently, and seeing how greasy these things were, she really didn't want to eat them.
What's more, if I were to eat with these men, I would smell the sour smell of sweat and lose my appetite.
Soon, when they finished their meal, the chili sauce was loaded into the car.
The drivers touched their round bellies and leaned back in their chairs contentedly.
Old Li was also very happy at the moment. Every time he came to Madam Shen's place, he could not only earn money but also have a meal. It was really a good deal.
Shen Ping gave 25 cents each to Stubborn Donkey and Silent Hulu. They hired a car themselves to come in, so of course they had to pay for the freight for this trip themselves.
As for the transportation of the chili sauce, the cost will be borne by Manager Chen.
Stubborn Donkey and Mute Man were just wondering whether they would get paid for this trip, but they didn't expect that Madam Shen would pay them the wages right away, and they felt relieved.
The other drivers could only look on with envy, as there was nothing they could do since they had to come in with empty carts.
After a short break, Manager Chen and Shen Ping checked the accounts, handed over the money and the goods, and the two were settled.
"Well, it's getting late, we should go!" Shopkeeper Chen said with a smile. Although he had just given three thousand taels of silver to Shen Ping, he didn't feel bad at all, because the chili sauce would earn him more money in the future.
After seeing off Manager Chen and his companions, Shen Ping carefully checked the fans and exhaust fans installed by the workers to see if any were missed.
In addition, ceiling fans were installed throughout the house, and exhaust fans were installed in the toilet and bathroom.
As for the solar lights, Shen Ping installed two at the gate of each workshop. They would automatically light up at night and automatically turn off during the day. Shen Ping's introduction caused another round of applause from the crowd.
Shen Ping also installed solar lights at the front door of her house, and also in the living room. She selected solar lights of different wattages.
The wattage of the lamp installed outside is relatively high, while the wattage of the lamp installed inside the house is slightly lower and softer. They are installed in every room, completely saying goodbye to the kerosene lamps of the past.
It was the first time for everyone to see this solar lamp. No one expected that it could emit such bright light, as bright as daylight, much brighter than the kerosene lamps of the past.
Everyone was so excited that it was hard to describe in words. Liu Ya and Le Le danced happily. Even Xiao Hai clapped his hands and cried out in excitement.
"Mom, where did you buy these good things?" Si Ya asked curiously.
"Mom bought it on a merchant ship outside the dock!" Shen Ping said calmly, "I asked Dadong to take me out early in the morning, and we just happened to run into that foreign merchant ship~"
"By the way, Dadong, how are you doing with the thing I asked you to do?" Shen Ping suddenly remembered this matter. Dadong hadn't told her yet!
"Madam, all the major restaurants said that customers generally like to eat this fresh chili sauce, but there are also many customers who like this dried chili sauce." Dadong reported truthfully.
"Oh, there's another letter here. It was given to me by Shopkeeper Qiu, who said it had just arrived yesterday and wanted to send someone to deliver it to the second young lady.
Later, I was delayed by something, and I happened to be there today, so I was given it." Dadong took out a letter from his pocket.
"Uncle Dadong, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Erya looked excited. She reached out to grab it, stood up and walked back to the room.
Dadong looked helpless, he had just returned not long ago, his wife was not back at that time, and the second young lady just got off work later, and it happened to be time for dinner, so he forgot about the matter.
"Okay, the second lady is a little anxious, don't bother with her. You are also tired after going out today. Go to rest early after dinner!" Shen Ping said to Dadong.
"It's okay, I understand, thank you ma'am!" Dadong looked honest and bowed.
"But, ma'am, there is something I don't know how to say." Dadong looked towards Erya's room and said in a low voice.
"What's the matter? Tell me!" Shen Ping's heart was in a knot. She had a bad feeling in her heart. Could something bad happen in Shenyang again?
Dadong said cautiously: "I heard from Shopkeeper Qiu that the messenger yesterday said that the emperor wants to grant a marriage to the tenth prince, and the other party is Ma Mei, the daughter of the Minister of Agriculture.
I heard that Ma Mei was well-educated, good at playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she really liked the Tenth Prince. I heard that her father was very capable and the Emperor valued him very much. I guess she wanted to see if the Minister of Agriculture could come up with any new products.
After all, the emperor has just ascended the throne. If he can do something beneficial to the country and the people at this critical moment, he will be supported by the people and praised by the whole country.
But because the Tenth Prince disagreed, the matter was put on hold for now. But from what he said, the Emperor probably won’t give up.”
Unexpectedly, such a thing would happen. Shen Ping waved her hand and signaled Dadong to leave.
It seems that the emperor will not let Shenyang leave easily. Shen Ping guessed that there are only two reasons why the emperor is unwilling to let Shenyang leave.
The first is that he felt that keeping Shenyang by his side would be helpful to him. Although he had already ascended the throne, he lacked people he trusted around him.
Shen Yang was the one who helped him ascend the throne, so of course he had complete trust in the emperor.
Another possibility is that the emperor was afraid of him and was on guard against him, so he wanted to keep him in the capital so that he could monitor him.
If Shenyang told the emperor about Erya, the emperor probably would not agree, after all, Erya was someone else's wife.
Shenyang was a prince, and if the news got out, it would bring shame to the royal family. Shen Ping had a headache, and it was really hard for Erya.
