Aunt Qian is the cardamom that Mrs. Zheng said, the girls and mothers-in-law stood against the wall, Shi Gui looked at the past, only to see the flowers, all over the satin, followed by two more, also dressed in the same way, Aunt Qian can sit in a sedan chair, but the two of them have to walk in, look sideways, dare not argue, feel uneven, also helped the mother-in-law's hand, and went inside.

Shi Gui also went back to the garden to listen to the errand, and after a while, Danzhu ordered her to come down and let her make some refreshing snacks.

The mint pastry is made early, and the ground water flour is kneaded with the juice from the mint leaves, and the filling is made of kidney bean puree, carved into the shape of a leaf.

There were boats and carriages all the way, and Chunyan couldn't eat anything when she came, so Shi Gui thought about making mint cake to relieve his greasyness, and took a carving knife in his hand to carve out the leaf veins.

In addition to the mint cake, there is also a plum filling, so use the pickled plum to remove the shell and chop it into a filling, printed into a flower, and then take a small spoon to decorate the plum minced meat on the top, so that it can be put on the plate, Danzhu came in, and saw that she was busy working, and flattened her mouth: "What about grapes? I don't think she should be surnamed Lai, she should be surnamed lazy." ”

While speaking, he stretched out his head to look, both of which were made delicately, and the mint cake felt cool at a glance, so he nodded at her: "You are still clever, you wait, this cake can't be served on a porcelain plate, I'll go get a glass." ”

The light bamboo ran quickly to find the spring swallow, Shi Gui was still stunned, it was really a transparent glass dish, and when the light bamboo took it out, it was a burning glass, one each light green and light red, the red one was filled with mint cake, the green one was filled with plum cake, a small mirror-like one, and there were just three or two pastries in it.

Even the glass is also rare, Danzhu saw her eyes widen and was speechless, and she covered her mouth and smiled: "Look at you girl, we didn't come to see when we opened the box, this is called Liuxia Dish, just like the ice chips that were chiseled down, but here it is burned to the sunset, and you have to be careful, you must not break it, just this one is five or six taels of silver." ”

When he opened the box with the things, Shi Gui didn't go to join in the excitement, and he didn't usually step on his wife's house, so he went to Chunyan for something, but he didn't know that there was already glass at this time.

This plate is more expensive than her worth of silver, Shi Gui didn't think of this, took the plate and touched it in his hand, Leng Qinqin, there is glass in this place, how did such a large piece of it be burned.

She was slightly distracted, and Danzhu hurriedly took it: "It's better for me to come, if it breaks, I have to send you down." Quickly put all the snacks on the table, carved a small flower cake and more, she pinched one and tasted it, and praised: "If you come with me, my wife will be rewarded." ”

Shi Gui was still stunned, his heart fluctuated, when he was in the countryside, he didn't ask this, even if he wanted to know, no one could ask, the village Master Yao and the patriarch were literate and could tell the years, Yao Master was still a scientific exam, but she stood on the ground in front of the study hall, Master Yao was furious, women should not be literate and literate, Shi Dad had to apologize, she just wanted to ask, and she didn't dare to ask.

Shi Gui hung his head and followed behind Danzhu, and when he arrived at the door, Danzhu held the dim sum in, Shi Gui was waiting under the porch, she stared at the upper of her shoes, there were people coming and going, the sound of the warbler was endless, there were seven or eight who passed by her, holding something in her hand and carrying the burden, she didn't look up to look, but someone came to ask: "Which one is this, why are you standing here." ”

"This is to follow Danzhu to deliver snacks. Shi Gui heard something else, but his mind was still turning about the glass, and the girls saw that she was young, so she was afraid, so they sat down beside her: "You sit down, Mrs. is at the old lady's place now, and it will only take a moment to come back." ”

Shi Gui smiled, said thank you, sister, sat down according to the words, put her hand on her lap, the girl looked at her and didn't speak, and touched her with her elbow: "My name is Chamei, what is your name?"

At the age of fourteen or fifteen years old, sprinkled with flowers and pants, green than nails, with a round face and round eyes, Shi Gui smiled at a glance: "I am an errand boy in the kitchen, my name is Shi Gui." ”

Cha Mei smiled: "Your name is just with Shi Ju, our wife loves flowers, all the names in the yard are flowers, I am Cha Mei, and that is Magnolia." ”

She stretched out her hand and pointed at Yulan, who was also a second-class girl, and pointed to her mother-in-law to put things: "This is Sister Fanxing's, you can be careful, don't touch it." ”

Thinking about it this way, light bamboo, stone chrysanthemum, cardamom are all flower names, and now there is tea plum magnolia, in a yard, only the name of the spring swallow is not a flower.

There were so many people who had just come in, but there were not many girls busy at this time, Shi Guiyin talked to her, looked up and looked around, and went to the next room to clean up the bedding with a big baggage.

Cha Mei said: "When I hear the gong, my wife is coming, don't stand here, stand at the bottom of the steps." ”

Mrs. Song's yard is just behind, she eats vegetarian all the year round, and she doesn't let others touch her hands, and she also has a small Buddha hall, which is a girl who sprinkles and sweeps, and she has to believe in Buddhism and eat fasting.

Her yard is next to the bitter bamboo house, although there is no bamboo to build a house, the pillars are also wrapped with bamboo pieces outside, the inside and outside are clean and elegant, the Buddha hall is offered a statue of Guanyin, and the outside is surrounded by a circle of purple bamboo, which is mixed with the old lady's place at home like a mold to make out.

Just arrived at this time, a daughter-in-law and a nephew-in-law, all waiting for her to eat tea and sit and lie down, Ye and Gan, one held tea, the other held a silver spit box, Mrs. Song's eyes swept away, raised her hand and beckoned Ye: "You also hurry up and rest, you have to do everything at home, and I don't have anything to wait for here." ”

Gan's face was full of smiles, and he continued: "Uncle Niang said very much, my sister-in-law is really hard." She smiled, but Ye's eyebrows didn't move, and her eyes didn't look over, she only served Mrs. Song to eat tea, and pressed the corner of her mouth with a silk for her, and then looked sideways at Gan's: "Brother and sister are serious." ”

Mrs. Song wanted to rest, the two of them withdrew, Gan was a younger brother and sister, one step behind, and when she came out, Ye had already gone to the other end of the corridor, and the smile on Gan's face was immediately accepted, and she didn't dare in the old lady's yard, so she endured it to the courtyard gate in one breath, and then snorted coldly.

The gong rang three times, and the girl who was still walking in the corridor of the main house immediately stopped, stood firm against the wall, hung her neck to greet people, Shi Gui stood at the bottom of the steps, and saw a piece of skirt corners, and a woman in a green dress entered the room.

Danzhu and Shi Ju were curtained by the door, and the fragrant tea and snacks were ready, Shi Ju knelt on the soft cushion and beat Ye's legs, Ye took a handkerchief and held a mint cake, took a bite and ate it, and then looked at the other plate of plums: "Send this to Aunt Qian." ”

"Is it good for Mrs. to eat?" Chunyan came in with the account book, knowing that this flower cake must be made by Shi Gui, Ye nodded: "It's refreshing, reward." ”

As soon as the Ye family came, the courtyard was immediately quiet, and the girls who were still loud stopped talking, and Chamei didn't gossip with her, and Danzhu lifted the bamboo curtain and beckoned: "Mrs. eats well, I want to reward you." ”

Shi Gui stood up immediately, and then he thought that he hadn't asked Danzhu how to salute, and the girl in the garden bought it to learn the rules first, but she didn't learn it with grapes.

Cha Mei came out with a begonia lacquer flower nursery, and said to her with a smile: "Don't be afraid, my wife is the most kind, you just kowtow." "I thought she was a timid girl.

The inside has changed greatly, the furnishings in the house are all meticulous work, Shi Gui grapes can no longer get their hands wet, a soft blanket is laid on the ground, two layers of curtains are hung on the flying cover door, one is a green silk soft curtain, one is a curtain ground out of bamboo beads, two girls stand outside the flying cover door to play curtains, Shi Gui hung her head in, and the girl pouted and asked her to wait.

When you enter the house, you can't stand and see like you can outside the house, and you can hear the sound of clothes and clothes, but it is so quiet that you can hear the needles dropping, and only Chunyan stands under the head to report the account.

From time to time, a mother-in-law stood outside the door of the flying cover and waited for something, and the glass dish that had just been brought in was brought out by Shi Ju, but it moved slightly, Shi Ju glanced at her, but did not speak, turned around and went out.

After waiting for a long time, Shi Gui didn't hear her call to go in, and after a while, the two layers of curtains were lowered, and Chamei came in with an incense burner, and when she saw that she was still waiting, she nodded at her.

The girls all lowered their voices, saying that their wives were resting, Shi Gui also withdrew, and went back to the kitchen, and without walking a few steps, he asked Danzhu to stop: "You wait, Sister Chunyan is looking for you." ”

"Mrs. ate the mint cake you made, and gave the plum to Aunt Qian, saying that she was pregnant and eating this is appropriate, so she said that she would reward you. "The thing was sent in by Danzhu, and I wanted Shi Gui to show her face in front of the Ye family, who knew that things kept going on and forgot about her.

Shi Gui waited for a long time, and Chunyan came over and hurriedly stuffed the things into her hands: "You take it, this is the wife's reward, I'm busy at this time, I'll call you over to talk later." ”

Shi Gui took the thing, but he didn't take it apart to look at it, and then went back to the small kitchen, there was already a mother-in-law on the stove and an errand girl, Shi Gui put this thing in his sleeve pocket, and went to find Mrs. Zheng.

Mrs. Zheng was also waiting to see the eldest lady to say goodbye, and no one called her for a long time, and when she returned to the kitchen, someone took over, and then she was in a hurry, if she didn't take over the kitchen, she had to go back to the outer courtyard.

Shi Gui said according to his words, and wanted to take out the things to show Mrs. Zheng, but Mrs. Zheng shook her head: "Mrs. rewards you, you can just take it." He glanced at Shi Gui, if he could go in, talk to his wife, and ask who he was doing on an errand within, but he didn't know that he couldn't get in, so he simply took the money and came out, rectified two or three snacks and dishes, and took this to find the original old sister, and see which one could speak now.

Grape Wu didn't know that she was watching the excitement by the door, and was assigned an errand as a rough girl, and followed up the yard with her baggage, but it was a small courtyard, and Aunt Qian lived in the main house. ”

Aunt Qian also rewarded her with a fragrant bunch, and the grapes were tucked in her sleeves, and when she came back, she knew that Shi Gui had won the reward, and she gritted her teeth angrily: "It's obviously our stuffing, and you are the only one to show your face!"

"Mrs. is screaming, can I still go into the yard to find you?" The filling is indeed a tune, and the arms stirred by the long chopsticks are sore, but the grapes are not found.

The two were arguing, and Mrs. Zheng came to call them and asked them, "There are not enough people inside, which of you wants to enter the courtyard?"
