Chapter 247: Meeting Eunuch Deming Again
Chapter 247: Meeting Eunuch Deming Again
Fortunately, everyone had experience from the last time the imperial edict was delivered, so although they were caught off guard this time, they were not in a panic.
Su Mu went home and told his family. They were busy bathing and changing clothes. After completing various procedures, the whole family went out and waited.
The messenger of the imperial edict also arrived at this time.
The leader was still Eunuch De Ming.
"My dear countryman, we meet again."
This time the imperial edict cannot call her Xiangjun.
"Father-in-law, we meet again."
"Please accept my order, my lord."
Everyone knelt down to receive the imperial edict. Su Mu stood out from the crowd because he was not allowed to kneel by the emperor's decree.
"By the will of heaven, the Emperor proclaims: Lord Qingshan is intelligent and quick-witted, and is now... conferred the title of Lord Qingshan County, and is specially awarded... This is my decree."
This imperial edict was like the previous one. The first half of the edict was praising Sumu, saying how good this person was. The second half mentioned Sumu's various contributions, and finally mentioned various rewards, not to mention some silver.
It was a surprise that she was finally conferred the title of county lady, and what Sumu liked most was the fields mentioned in the imperial edict. She had a lot more fields, which was really exciting.
"My Lady, please accept the order." Eunuch Deming handed the imperial edict to Su Mu with both hands.
Su Mu took the imperial edict respectfully and expressed his gratitude to the emperor.
"Congratulations, County Lady." Eunuch De Ming congratulated with a smile.
Other people in the family handed red envelopes to the person who came to convey the imperial edict, trying to share in the good fortune, and the others happily accepted them.
The retired emperor and Ji Shiyan were very happy for Su Mu when they heard that she was conferred the title of county lady. It was a pity that Zhou Zi went home to get something in the morning and did not see it with her own eyes.
Eunuch De Ming also presented silver, money and other items as rewards to other people.
After the messenger stopped here for a short rest, Eunuch De Ming talked to De Fu and reminisced about the past. He left after a short while.
Everyone in the Su family was very happy, it was a double happiness. Su Mu was awarded the title of county lady, and Su An was praised by the emperor, who said that his paintings were very interesting and good for publicity. They also received silver and money.
"You two are so nice." Li looked at the two people and shed tears of excitement. Who would have thought that even at her old age, she would still be so blessed.
"Grandma, you can't cry on such a happy day."
"well."
"I can't cry on such a happy day." Li wiped the corners of her eyes.
"Little sister! I also got a reward, and I have a lot of silver this time." This was the first time he was rewarded, and his little sister was conferred the title of county lady, which made him very happy.
"Little sister, let's celebrate today!"
"Okay, let's eat something delicious today." It just so happened that she had always wanted to eat something she had never eaten before, and there was enough seasoning, so she took this opportunity to eat it together today.
Some villagers outside also saw what was happening here and excitedly ran to share with others, "The township lord was named county lord!"
"Now I'm a county lord!" The other villagers were also extremely excited, as if they had received the reward themselves.
Su Mu took out a piece of butter, yes, butter.
"Mumu, how do you eat this butter?"
They actually don't know how to eat butter.
"Let's eat hot pot today!" She had wanted to eat hot pot for a long time, but had never been able to do so because it was too difficult to make hot pot. On the one hand, there was the problem of butter, and on the other hand, there were all kinds of peppers and other ingredients needed to make hot pot.
"Hot pot?" This was the first time they heard this name.
"Is the hotpot delicious?" Su An was looking forward to it. It must be delicious, otherwise his younger sister wouldn't be so happy.
"It's delicious, especially delicious!" Su Mu drooled at the thought of the taste of the hot pot.
That taste is simply delicious!
"Okay, little sister tells me what to do and what is needed, let's prepare it."
"Hot pot requires a special pot." She has this one, and she has several more prepared just for hot pot.
Su Mu took out the copper pot from the space, and 006 came out when he heard that he wanted to eat something delicious.
Now everyone here knows about the existence of 006, so 006 can come out and play with everyone freely.
[Host, are you ready for some delicious food?] 006 rubbed against Su Mu as soon as he came out.
It saw the host take out several pots that had been stored for a long time.
“Yes, there is delicious hot pot.”
When the others saw 006 coming out, they all came over to play with it.
"006, come here, I'll give you a candy. Can you let me touch it?" The emperor was like a big bad wolf who was kidnapping children.
Just happened to grasp 006's pain point.
[Really? I can do that~] 006 said as he flew over to the emperor's side and looked at him.
The heart of the retired emperor was almost melted. If it were possible that he could take such a cute little thing out, he would have wanted to take it out to play and show off.
"Here." The emperor kept his word and took out various candies for 006 to choose from.
After 006 selected the candy and agreed, the emperor hugged 006 and caressed him.
"It's really soft." It looks like a soft cloud ball, and it feels very soft to the touch.
[Yes, that's right.] 006, who can eat as much as he wants without worrying about getting sick, answered nonchalantly with candy in his mouth.
The emperor's kneading hands did not delay it from eating at all.
[Host, how do you eat hot pot?] You can still care about the progress of the hot pot while eating candy.
"Hot pot is a big pot where you can cook all kinds of food. You can put whatever you want in it and it's delicious."
A big pot slowly began to emerge in people's minds, the pot that Su Mu had just taken out emerged; various foods were cooked in it, and people continued to imagine that mutton, pork, beef, and various vegetables were all put in, creating a pot of stew.
Is this delicious? Everyone thought about the things in their minds. This thought inexplicably emerged, and then they denied their thoughts. No, no, all the things in their minds were erased.
They can't quite think of it, or they can't think of something that is completely beyond their own cognition. Just like 006, according to the description in the prophecy, aren't the inner imagination and what they see different?
I will definitely smell really good! Yeah, that's it.
After figuring it out, everyone stopped worrying and just ate.
"Then let's divide the work and prepare things!"
"it is good!"
A large group of people started to get busy, some washing vegetables, peeling and slicing them, and some looking for beef and mutton. Even after Sumu mentioned that hand-made beef balls were particularly delicious, everyone started making them.
These people have no shortage of strength. Even the old emperor, the retired emperor, has strength that cannot be underestimated.
Those people started to cut the beef first. As the name suggests, hand-made beef balls need to be constantly pounded by hand. They use a hammer to pound up and down repeatedly for more than 2000 times, and they cannot stop during the process.
The speed and strength should be kept uniform to break up the beef and create glue. While turning it into meat paste, the meat fibers should be maintained, making it more elastic and more delicious.
