Chapter 406 Prepare to welcome guests
Ye Shiqi was having a headache, and finally the people who sent the visitor before dinner stopped. There was such a big noise in the house, and the sisters at home already knew about it.
When Li Zhihao came back to have dinner, he felt a little scared.
When did a farmer preside over the work of receiving so many noble ladies and ladies? Fortunately, there were no male guests. He mainly arranged for workers to do things in the kitchen.
I also admire my little niece for being so calm in the face of so many invitations.
Most of the most respected ministers in Kyoto sent invitations. Maybe they were not only the wife and the ladies, but also the wife and the relatives.
While having supper, Ye Shiqi met three sisters and kept nagging, not knowing what to do tomorrow.
Li Zhihao also asked what to use to receive so many people tomorrow.
Ye Shiqi wanted his uncle to be there at this time. After all, his uncle was the manager of the villa, and he had never been nervous about receiving so many tourists from the villa.
Ye Shiqi asked them to have a meal first, then make a list, and entertain the lady and the tea that the lady had to drink had to be filled with honey, just because they did not have more expensive tea leaves, and they were all flower tea, so honey was the best to drink.
Then, if the kitchen does not make so many pastries to entertain guests, you can book in each restaurant overnight.
Then there is lunch, and you can only invite the chefs from the restaurant to cook, and then serve the dishes and meat at home.
I had never invited so many guests to have dinner at home before. It was more than 20 years ago. The tables and stools in the warehouse were already old. Although they were good materials, after all, guests were distinguished guests.
Ye Shiqi had to let Li Zhihao move the furniture placed in their store and warehouse to the mansion for emergency treatment, and then clean up the old furniture. After receiving customers, the new furniture was put into the warehouse, and it might be used again next time.
When Li Zhihao heard his niece's order, the rest were written on the list. He thought that only the furniture was new and he had to use some money. After all, the furniture was used for sale and the cost was very high. He remembered the Zhao Mansion, which was idle in the warehouse anyway, and there were also furniture, tables and stools.
Even some owners have good tables and stools. Anyway, only the guards live there, and bring some tables and stools here to respond to the emergency.
Li Zhihao also thought about inviting some guests to entertain the Zhao Mansion next door.
Later, I thought about it and let it go. There were only a few nieces in the family who were the masters, and the grandmother in the head was not there.
The nieces are very capable. After all, they are still ladies. Not only do they have to greet their wives, but they also have to greet some ladies. They may not be enough this year and face great pressure.
At this moment, the old housekeeper was not here, and he didn't know who was in the same gang of all forces, and who was in their gang.
Li Zhihao could only ask those shopkeepers to help overnight. You, an outsider, know a lot.
That night, because the workers were going to treat tomorrow, the workers were busy very late. Not only did they have to place some tents to block the sun in the garden, but too many people came to visit. It was impossible for so many people to sit in the main hall.
Then you can only use the garden and set up tents to entertain.
Hanging red lanterns and colorful strips, it turned out that there were only old housekeepers in the Ye Mansion, and some workers, so they did not put so many famous flowers in the garden or set up flower rooms.
Mr. Zhao is different. He is an elegant person himself. The female family in the family has learned the same elegance as his son. There is also a flower house in the mansion.
Li Zhihao had to let someone move the flowers over there, and they moved more potted flowers and fruit trees.
My uncle and the others are busy so late. The guests are coming tomorrow, and it will be too late to be busy any longer.
Ye Shiqi and her sisters wrote the menu well. They thought that living here was a little bigger, and it might be better to entertain so many guests.
If you go to the next door, you don’t have to work so hard to move tables, stools, etc., and maybe you don’t have to move flowers, plants and trees.
Once their sisters live here, they will stay here safely. As long as they make good arrangements, all difficulties will be solved.
Ye Shiqi's sisters were nervous at the beginning, and with her orderly help, they had already begun to calm down.
Just treat it as receiving so many guests in the villa, regardless of the noble status of the guests, the same treatment is given.
The visitor is a guest, and whether it is the master or the maid, the mother-in-law also needs the same hospitality.
We also arranged for the people around us and the people in the yard to come to the garden and the lobby to receive guests tomorrow.
Ye Shiqi and a few sisters, except for the beautiful garden, are just watching flowers in summer. So many people will visit each other tomorrow, and their purpose is to come to Ye’s house to see flowers.
As for whether you really look at the flowers in the garden, or the lady in the mansion who is as beautiful as a flower.
Ye Shiqi and her sisters had already bought a lot of fabrics and ready-to-wear before they came to Kyoto again.
These days they have been making quilts and some items, and they haven't had time to make clothes again.
I can only wear ready-to-wear clothes tomorrow, all of which are new clothes.
I understand that no matter what era it is, people compete with wealth and family rights.
Ye Shiqi is worried that so many wealthy ladies and ladies will come tomorrow, and she will dislike them not wearing as well as theirs, and someone may be squirting at that time.
For the sake of the sisters, tomorrow will not be so embarrassing, she lent the jewelry that Tang Shunyan gave him over the years to her sisters to wear.
Ye Luoqi did not use her little sister's jewelry. She was an engaged person. Many of the betrothal gifts sent by the other party belonged to her.
Ye Shiqi's other two sisters just borrowed a buyao. Before coming to Beijing, their parents bought them jewelry. At that time, they paid their future brother-in-law, and later, they paid for some items. Tang Shunyan.
But their things are all top-quality, and perhaps not as good as those collected by some people.
Their sisters are not very inferior. They are nervous about so many people visiting each other, but because the other party has a strong family, they may make things difficult for them.
It's just identity, Ye Shiqi and her sisters can only wait for tomorrow to come and deal with each other with each other.
That night, Ye Shiqi and her sisters were ready to go back to the yard, and she closed the door and took a shower.
Ye Shiqi was in the large bathroom in the space, and when she was taking a bath and swimming, she thought that others might give gifts tomorrow. Although they were country people, they could not only accept other people's things and not return gifts.
Then the problem is coming again. What exactly do they have to give to suit?
Honey? This is inappropriate. Dozens of visits can predict the arrival of two owners or three owners in one post, and then take the people around them to prevent two or three hundred people.
Then, you may have to invite seventy or eighty tables for dinner, plus the chef and workers, and more than one hundred reservations, and gifts must be given according to the weight of two or three hundred people.
Ye Shiqi saw the flowers at this time. In her space, she was not only small chrysanthemums, big chrysanthemums, honeysuckle, and some flowers that wanted to make skin care water.
