In the twenty-second round
Mama Wang smiled and nodded, just eating wine on an empty stomach, her stomach was churning for a while, and she was busy picking a few dishes to suppress it, and then she ate slowly. Wang Shujia saw her eat, just told her about the raw material method, and asked her about the taste, and only said: "The eldest sister-in-law followed the girl, and all she saw was the world in the capital." What is the appearance of the kitchen of the Mansion? What is the material? Is the food and snacks so particular? What is the difference between the daily food of the old lady and the young lady? I am from the south, and I have never stepped on the ground in my life. I have to ask my sister-in-law to teach me more, so that I can serve the eldest girl properly!"
Mama Wang listened to her side knock, but she was not straightforward, so she smiled and said again: "One family doesn't talk to two families." It's all about doing things for the masters, and it's our duty to be thoughtful everywhere. It's just that I don't know how to make it myself, and I'm not good at eating, although the girl pities it, and from time to time there are all kinds of food to eat, which is really filling my skin in vain. It's the snow goose, when she was in the Rong Mansion, she had the best time with the girls of the second master of Bao over there, and she also had a face in front of the old lady and the maid daughter-in-law beside Grandma Feng. The girl likes her, and she knows the girl's tastesβif you don't ask her to go, who else do you ask?"
Wang Shujia was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, my sister-in-law is so cheerful." The snow goose is the niece of her aunt's cousin, and she has always followed her aunt, and they are all a family. When I came back this time, my aunt and uncle were so happy that they wanted to reunite and invite wine, and they would be able to talk when the time came. Then he asked, "It's just that I heard that in Nafu, the most effective person beside the eldest lady is a girl named Zijuan." She is in the capital, and she doesn't know if the things here fit together, and whether the room is used to it. β
Mama Wang laughed more and more, pointed at her and said, "You still say that I, don't you still worry about the old one, and after worrying about the young lady, you have to take care of the girl." Let me tell you, the purple cuckoo is also from the south. Her mother and son are all old servants of the Jia family, and they are now looking at houses in Nanjing. She grew up here when she was young, otherwise why would she be asked to serve our girl? And there is another one, this purple juan girl is the most knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and she has served the girl, I look at it coldly, and she is not a little less loyal than ordinary to her master. If you want to please her, you might as well just flatter the big girl. However, there are a few daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law on the side, and there are quite a few broken mouths who can ask about accidents, so they should tell the people below to be cautious. β
Wang Shujia nodded and smiled: "I know everything." The eldest girl is her own master, and there is no reason not to care. The people on the side are all guests from afar, and they will never dare to leave the dignity of the house. As he spoke, he poured wine with his sister-in-law and persuaded him to eat two more glasses.
Mama Wang took it and ate it, and said, "Then there is the person who follows Second Master Lian." We are all in the inner courtyard, and we can't get to each other on weekdays, and we don't know anything else. There is only one, Second Master Lian is a romantic person, and he has a soft face and a soft heart when he looks good. He is young, but if he doesn't make a big fuss, his elders don't care about it. On the way, he saved a pair of sisters and brothers, if they were in our family, they would naturally have no unity, but in the Jia family, they didn't even count a thing. He is a guest, the master doesn't speak, let's open our eyes and close our eyes vaguely. Anyway, Songfeng Garden is also big, and there are enough houses, so he eats and serves a lot, and how to deal with love is his family's business. And in the end, he is the son of the Guogong Mansion, and there will always be no mistakes in the general rules. β
Wang Shujia was busy chanting the Buddha and said, "In the end, it is my sister-in-law." Before I could say it, you knew it all. I heard last night that I wasn't sure how to prepare it, and the noon meal was just as I did when people came from outside. I'll have to ask my aunt and the two aunts for instructions in a while. Suddenly remembering something, she asked Mama Wang: "Is this the uncle of the Jia family or someone else?" I heard Wu Yuan and Shen Ping outside call them all 'uncle', why did the sister-in-law say 'Second Master Lian'? Or is there anything else above him?"
Mama Wang patted her head and said with a smile: "If you don't ask, I really don't feel confused." This Lian Ye is really an uncle, but the eldest son of our uncle's uncle, and he is only such a son. It was only because he was ranked with the eldest son of the second uncle, Uncle Zhu, that he fell behind. Although Uncle Zhu is gone, in the end for more than ten years, it has long been used to being called 'Second Master' in the Rong Mansion. Even if the old man gave birth to a son later, the two families were separated again, but they were still the same title in front of the old lady, and they also seemed to be close to each other. β
Wang Shujia nodded and said, "According to my sister-in-law's words, since we are in our house now, it is still the most reasonable rule to call 'uncle' on the uncle's side." β
Mama Wang smiled: "That's how it is." In the end, the master of the younger generation, who is more serious here. I also remembered it for a while, and asked, "When I came back this time, I heard that I was talking about a young master of Zhangbiao?
Wang Shujia hurriedly stopped and said, "Sister-in-law, there is the word 'Hui' in the name of the young master, don't shout in front of him carefully." The young master doesn't stick to this, and a few stewards in the house can care - they have all healed the relationship between the master, and everyone in the house thinks that it is not too respectful. Seeing that Mama Wang nodded and said, "Remember", she breathed a sigh of relief and said: "This young master is the nephew of the old lady's mother's family and the son of the Zhang family in Changzhou." The old man was seriously ill this time, and the old lady sent him after receiving the letter, and it was thanks to the life-saving medicine and the doctor that the old man got better. In those days, the house was like a headless fly, but fortunately, the old man entrusted him with the affairs inside and outside the family, and this is the person who has the backbone, and people everywhere also obey the rules. β
When Mama Wang heard this, she was taken aback at first and asked, "Is there such a thing?" But it is strange that he is a son-in-law, the prime minister. I was in the Rong Mansion, and I was the housekeeper for the old man, and the daily things in the house were also the ideas of his grandmother Feng. β
Wang Shujia immediately laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, this is too much to say. As for the housekeepers and aunts, the young master was entrusted by the lord to command some major festivals at most, and he would go deep into the door of the house? But if he really talked about any proposition, the lord would indeed be a sure one, and if he wanted to say that it was important, he would be the first one in these years. You just see that he lived in Songfeng Yuan with Mr. Guan in the first place, and when the uncle of the Jia family came, he moved to Yanguitang -- the side courtyard where the master lived for a few years, who would have thought that he would move there? β
Mama Wang was shocked and asked, "How old is the young master, is he a good man?"
Wang Shujia said: "No, I was lifted at the age of fifteen, and even our master is not as good as this, and they all say that they have the true inheritance of Wen Zhaogong." We don't know what poetry he is, what he writes, what he embroiders, just look at the description of the characters, mannerisms, and stand with the master to see, where is the uncle and nephew of the next relatives, saying that the father and son also have four or five points of likeness. The old man usually likes to talk about it with the younger generations, and now he is ready to be next to him, how can he not be happy. Hey, why does my sister-in-law live with chopsticks? It's all because I'm talking too much, just gossiping, and I don't feel at ease when you eat. β
Mama Wang woke up in shock, smiled and slurred, and picked up the bowl and pulled a few bites. Wang Shujia also accompanied some to eat. It was also thanks to the two of them quickly, and sure enough, they ate well, and after a while, they heard a rumor that Daiyu in Tonghua Courtyard had taken a nap, and she was freshening up at the moment, and she should have refreshments when she was finished. Wang Shujia quit his sister-in-law and rushed to the kitchen to preside. Mama Wang was home alone, and there was a god under the window for a quarter of an hour, so she called the little girl to come in and pack up the cage items in the same detail. After packing up, he took out the gifts for everyone, some of which were prepared in the capital, and some of which were bought at the market when the docks docked along the way. After a busy night, her man Wang Yi, brother-in-law Wang Shu, two sons, and a nephew all returned home from Suzhou, kowtowed to Lin Ruhai, and rushed home to reunite after completing the errand. Wang Shu's family re-purchased the wine, and a room of flesh and blood talked about the family, and the joy and joy were not mentioned.
The next day, Wu Sheng and his wife and Xue Yan's parents took their own leave and invited relatives and people who were usually good to have a meeting. So everything in the Lin Mansion that could be vacant went, even Qian and Chen's two aunts also sent someone to ask for a glass of wine. was happy and lively for a while, and the snow goose was so happy that he didn't know the weight of things, and he only shouted "Sure enough, it's still the best in the family, and my grandmother and mother hurt the most", and everyone only laughed more when they heard it. However, Mama Wu found a gap in the banquet and said to Mama Wang: "The snow goose is a child's family, and it is difficult to come forward if she doesn't understand everything, and it is not easy to come forward - the eldest lady has been there for many years, although she is loved by her elders, and she acts and orders in her daily life, thanks to the people below who take care of her; It's just that the inner house and the outer courtyard are different, and there is the itinerary of the Jia family uncle over there, so the time is a little uncertain. You are familiar with the family over there, and this matter still falls on you. Mama Wang responded.
After a while, Aunt Chen sent a little girl over, and whispered the same words as Mama Wu in Mama Wang's ear. Then Aunt Qian's personal girl also came, but not to instruct, but to ask her if she was free for a while, if so, please go to Aunt Qian's room to sit down. Mama Wang knew that there were other instructions, and seeing that the banquet was about to disperse, she said goodbye to Wu Sheng and his wife and Xue Yan's parents, Shen Zhong and his wife, and went to Aunt Qian's house.
