Chapter 18: Mrs. Xing
Wang Shanbao's family and glass walked out of the gate of the Jasmine Courtyard, but the two of them glanced at each other meaningfully, and then raised their feet and walked towards the courtyard of their master. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Halfway through, both of them took out the Zhou family's purse. I saw it just now, and the purse color and material that the two of them took were the same. When I opened it, I saw that there were two gold nudes made into plum blossom style and weighing five coins. It was worth about ten taels of silver.
When Zhou Muqing was bored on the boat, he saw the purses embroidered by the maids. Let them divide into various styles and colors, and put gold and silver naked for rewards.
The best were two gold nudes of five denarii, worth ten taels of silver.
The medium one was loaded with one gold and one silver, and the gold nude was five coins and the silver nude was one tael, and it was worth six taels.
The third-class one contains two silver nudes, which are worth two taels.
The rough mother-in-law and the little girl can be sent away with a copper coin on weekdays. These purses are only available in this house, and only the people who have to use them around the master or the big girl have the opportunity to get them.
Because the glass and Wang Shanbao's family got a first-class seal, when someone asked about it after they went back, they naturally praised it a lot, and the words of the two were similar.
"The Qing girl of the Zhou family really deserves to be from a scholarly family, and although the furnishings in that room are not very precious, they are also very elegant. It feels comfortable, and it's pleasing to the eye."
He took out the reward he had received, and in the envy of all the maids and women, he raised the purse in his hand: "I know how much reward I got this time, two whole gold nudes, but it is a full ten taels of silver! I don't know who said that? -- Can a poor relative who came to fight the autumn breeze give a reward of ten taels of silver?"
There are those who are jealous, and there are those who regret it...... I also deeply regret that I didn't receive this beautiful errand at home.
The maid's inadvertent actions made Zhou Muqing much better in Rongguo Mansion. There are many people who come to report the news in order to get a tip.
Along the way, the garden of Rongguo Mansion is also very large. Even in the northern winter, the garden is full of greenery, and occasionally a blooming flower. rejected the mother-in-law's proposal to carry the sedan chair, only let the front lead the way, and led Mama Zhou Bai Shao all the way to the big house.
On the way to the big house, because he had to pass by the inner house of Rongguo Mansion, Zhou Mufeng was already over nine years old, but he needed to pay attention to the general defense of men and women, and it was no longer convenient to walk in the inner house. had to let him visit Jia Lian and Jia Yu in the outer courtyard every day.
There were many people who greeted Zhou Muqing along the way, and the group also felt very strange. Bai Shao asked directly, "Girl, why do you think that the subordinates of this Rongguo Mansion are weird." We can't have something on our faces, right?"
The people in this house are also enthusiastic enough. They came from afar and came to salute as if they had seen gold fall from the sky. The enthusiasm is a little unbearable.
When I came to the courtyard where Jia Yu lived. Bai Shao invited a little girl to go in and report to Mrs. Xing, and also gave a low-grade purse, watching the little girl happily turn around and go in to return, Zhou Muqing felt that he knew the reason why the people of Rongguo Mansion were so enthusiastic? It turned out that everything was caused by silver! It is worthy of the famous Rongguo Mansion, everything is to look at money!
Mrs. Fei was combing Mrs. Xing's hair, when she suddenly heard the maid come to report, "Miss Zhou is here to say hello to Mrs."
The little girl is just a rough maid in Mrs. Xing's courtyard, and her monthly money is only two or three hundred lines a month. I was very excited about Zhou Muqing's reward of two taels of silver in an inferior purse. was so happy that he even spoke with a vibrato of overexcitement.
Seeing that Jia Yu cared about the Zhou family, she didn't dare to let Zhou Muqing wait for a long time, so Mrs. Xing hurriedly packed herself. saw Zhou Muqing sitting in the flower hall waiting for him. I am also quite relieved, this is a person who understands the rules.
Seeing Mrs. Xing coming out of the inner room, Zhou Muqing immediately stepped forward to say goodbye. "Mu Qing has seen the eldest wife, the eldest lady, good morning"
"Why don't you sleep a little longer? Although she said this, Mrs. Xing was quite satisfied. has been in Rongguo Mansion for so many years, and none of Jia Yu's three children has come to ask for peace for him so early.
The expression on the originally scathing and mean face also softened, giving people a gentle feeling. He sent someone to ask Jia for pardon.
"Come here so early, but have you used dry food?" At this time, the maid in the house came over with a food box.
"I want you to come here so early, I must not have used it, just use it here with me"
Because the small kitchen has not yet been built, Zhou Muqing did only eat a few pastries and pad his stomach. Thinking about his original idea, which was to have a good relationship with Mrs. Xing, he agreed.
Although Mrs. Xing's status in Rongguo Mansion is embarrassing and she is not in charge, as the eldest wife, breakfast is also quite rich.
Zhou Muqing was also fortunate to see the legendary blue terrier rice, and only saw that the rice was very green and beautiful, even if the original body had never eaten it in the Zhou family in the past. I heard that the yield of this kind of rice is not much, and many people can't buy it even if they have money, except for dignitaries and wealthy families, ordinary people don't bother to see it, let alone eat it?
Zhou Muqing was not polite to Mrs. Xing, and he ate sweetly!
Seeing Zhou Muqing eating a cheerful meal, Mrs. Xing was also very happy, which showed that Zhou Muqing was willing to be close to her. He is also closer to Zhou Muqing.
Jia Yu came over after the two of them had eaten, but he was alone and didn't see Zhou Mufeng.
Zhou Muqing stood up and greeted Jia Yu, "Uncle is well!"
Jia Yu is a messy person, although he is happy that the people of the Zhou family are here, but because he is only a family of two children, he is also quite disappointed. Although there was a slight change, she only instructed Mrs. Xing to take more care of the sisters and brothers, so she stopped caring about it and only cared about her own business!
The mother of the two siblings is also quite respectful, and she doesn't want him to encounter such a bad thing. No matter how much he pampered his concubine, the small courtyard of his inner house was still managed by Mrs. Xing. looked at Mrs. Xing again, although she didn't like her not very shrewd temperament, she also knew that her family was quite harsh to her in the past, that is, she was a little better to Mrs. Xing, and sometimes she was willing to give her some face.
Although he didn't often rest in Mrs. Xing's yard, like greeting Jia's mother, he used to go alone by himself, not with Mrs. Xing, but now he is willing to go with Mrs. Xing.
The east cross courtyard where Jia Yu lived was also quite far away from the Rongqing Hall in the courtyard where Jia's mother lived, so Xing Ren arranged for three small sedan chairs to carry it to Rongqing Hall.
Wandering along the way, Zhou Muqing also took a nap and slept a good night. When I woke up, I was already in Rongqing Hall.
Mama Zhou woke up her girl, sorted out Zhou Muqing's clothes and appearance, and then everyone walked into the gate of Rongqing Hall with their feet raised.
