That afternoon, the General's Mansion sent a carriage to pick up Qiao Ran and the others to live in the manor.

Mrs. Qiao still didn't want to go to the General's Mansion and insisted on living at home with the rest of her family.

Instead, Zheng Huiniang, mother and son were asked to stay one night at the General's Mansion first, and they would rush there early the next morning.

So Qiao Ran moved the two buckets of blue water fish, two baskets of bamboo fungus, two bags of bamboo shoots, and many fresh fruits and vegetables that had been prepared to the carriage of the General's Mansion.

And she drove the carriage slowly into the city with her mother, two younger brothers and a large five-layer cake that was almost as high as the top of the carriage.

Because today is the fiftieth birthday of the old lady of the General's Mansion and the haircut ceremony of the cousin are held at the same time, it is a double happiness, so this banquet is also held very grandly.

And unlike last time, when many people came to the General's Mansion to watch the excitement with contempt for Qiao Ran and Zheng Huiniang, this time everyone came with full expectations.

When they saw Qiao Ran, they all involuntarily felt awe of her.

This is the master of the ghost doctor!

This is a genius doctor who can develop whitening pills, body-building pills, heart-saving pills and other wonders!

Why don't you offer it carefully?

Although some people were skeptical about Qiao Ran's superb medical skills at such a young age, they only dared to question in their hearts. They did not dare to show any contempt in front of Qiao Ran easily, but wanted to work hard to communicate with her. good.

After all, even the ghost doctor is a miracle doctor that they try their best to befriend, let alone the ghost doctor’s master?

Even if this little girl is really a person seeking fame and reputation, doesn't she still have a master-disciple relationship with the ghost doctor?

No one should be offended, but a master who is a miracle doctor!

As elders are respected, this banquet was held in two parts.

The morning was a birthday party for Madam Zheng, and the afternoon was Qiao Ran's haircut ceremony.

Mrs. Zheng was sitting at the top, wearing a brocade dress with pine and crane patterns representing longevity and auspiciousness.

Everyone sent congratulatory gifts one after another, wishing Mrs. Zheng good health and longevity, wealth and good fortune, and endless blessings in the future.

Various birthday greetings made Qiao Ran lament the ancients' emphasis on etiquette.

And the congratulatory gifts sent by these official family members were each more valuable than the last, which amazed Qiao Ran, a foreigner.

The guests were also curious, what kind of gifts would the newly recognized eldest lady and cousin of the General's Palace give to Mrs. Zheng?

Zheng Huiniang's gift was chosen by Qiao Ran for her mother.

There are boxes and boxes of gold and silver jewelry in her space. What kind of jewelry isn’t there?

She didn't dare to take out the jewelry she had plundered from Prince Ping and other corrupt officials. But last time she detoxified Mo Beihan, Mo Beihan not only gave her all the gold and silver in the house, but also Dongzhu. Dendrobium and two boxes of jewelry.

Therefore, she selected two sets of jewelry from the two boxes that were suitable for her grandma, one set for her mother to give as a gift, and the other as a gift for her grandma.

Seeing the gifts given by the mother and daughter, everyone was speechless.

Expensive but not too expensive, decent but not rude, it is quite suitable for their status.

This made the guests secretly admire the Qiao family's tutor.

Mo Beihan stood in the crowd and nodded secretly.

This little girl is really safe in her work!

At the birthday banquet at noon, everyone couldn't help but sigh when they ate the fresh and delicious blue water fish for the second time.

It’s only been half a month since I’ve eaten, so why does it feel like a long year has passed?

Before they could finish sighing, another dish of bamboo shoots and chicken soup that was so delicious that they almost swallowed their tongues also made them marvel at the generosity of the General's Palace.

In fact, the production of bamboo fungus in Zhongzhou is really not high. There are no bamboo forests in most mountains, and places with bamboo forests may not necessarily have bamboo fungus.

So let alone in a restaurant, even high-ranking officials like them would find it difficult to get so many bamboo fungus at once, and they are all fresh and delicious.

During this meal, almost all the guests had their stomachs full.

Chicken soup made with fresh bamboo fungus, and fresh and delicious blue water fish that can’t be found in the market!

This is a rare opportunity to eat, why don't they eat more?

However, when everyone burped with satisfaction, couldn't help but hold their stomachs full and ate a wide variety of fresh fruits, and thought with satisfaction that this trip was worth it, the next delicious dish made them regret having just eaten it. Too full.

When the four guards carefully carried out the huge pastry, which was half a person's height, the guests gathered around it curiously.

"What is this? The snow is so white and beautiful!"

"Is this pastry? What is it made of so white? It looks like cotton."

"There are a lot of fruits here, they look delicious."

"Is this brought back by General Zheng from Qingzhou again? We have never seen it in the capital."

"How could they be brought back from Qingzhou? These fruits are still very fresh, they must have been freshly made."

"Although my stomach is very full, I still want to eat. How come there are so many fresh and delicious things in the General's Mansion?"

"The General's Mansion rarely held banquets before, but they have held two in just one month. Each one is unforgettable!"

"Really? I just want to know what is so beautiful? I wonder what it tastes like?"

……

Everyone was talking about it, until they saw Qiao Ran coming out with a long and sharp knife. They were all shocked, and the scene suddenly became quiet.

Someone whispered:

"What are you doing? Why do you have to use a sword to celebrate your birthday?"

"This is my cousin's performance for my grandmother, right? Let's just watch it."

"Isn't she a little girl from a small village in the countryside? Why can she still use a machete?"

"Shhh! Be careful she hears it! This girl is not easy to mess with."

"Isn't that true? The Prime Minister's Mansion has been disturbed by her. Zhang Bai and Zhang Yunxiang will suffer a terrible end if they offend her!"

"Stop talking, she's looking over!"

Qiao Ran glanced at the ladies who were whispering and didn't care at all. With a smile on her face, she walked up to Mrs. Zheng with a knife:

"Grandma, you are the birthday girl, and you have to be the first to cut this birthday cake."

Mrs. Zheng took the long knife with a smile and grabbed her granddaughter's hand: "Ranran, today is also your 15th birthday. It's a good day for you to have haircuts. You should also cut the birthday cake."

So, the grandfather and grandson held the long knife together and cut the first layer of cake.

Then, Qiao Ran faced the curious crowd and introduced the fresh pastry that they had been speculating for a long time about.

"This is called a birthday cake. The inside is made of eggs, flour and sugar and baked. The outside is covered with a layer of cream, which is made of milk and sugar. This is a kind of cake that only foreigners can have. The pastries taste very soft and delicious, everyone is welcome to try them.”

After saying that, she used the long knife to cut the five layers of cake into even pieces.
