Chapter 243: Gossip
The weather gradually turned cooler, Lan thought that when he went to sea, Fang Ning had sent gifts, and seeing that it was going to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, he thought about preparing the gifts in advance, so as not to be in a hurry. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info didn't have any idea in his heart for a while, so he called Liu's mother and Zhen's mother over to discuss a charter together.
"The gift list sent by the Fang family, the two mothers have also read it. I don't know, what do the two mothers think about the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Lan Xin played with the teacup in his hand, looked at the two mothers sitting below, and asked in a low voice.
Mother Liu thought for a while and said: "Because the girl is not in the house, I also returned the last gift in accordance with the rules, but this time the girl is in the house, this gift list is to be considered." I don't know what the girl used to think about ・・・・・・ girl and Jane's mother. She wanted to ask, I don't know how the girl used to give gifts when she was in Xuzhou? Thinking about those bad things in Xuzhou, she swallowed back half of the words, and hurriedly changed her words.
Lan Xin felt that there was nothing to shy away from, and said with a smile: "When I was in Xuzhou in the past, during the New Year's holidays, the old lady would send some small things and snacks in the name of Sister Qin. At that time, the things in the kitchen of the Zhou family must not be able to handle, and my own things were also stretched. I went to 'Shiwei Zhai' to order a few snacks and embroidered some small things to send over. Sometimes I would embroider a forehead for the old lady, and sometimes I would make a pair of shoes. ”
After hearing this, Liu's mother felt distressed, her girl was so young, she had to be busy with these people. Jane's mother lowered her eyes and looked at the gift list in her hand. While constantly turning his mind. When the emperor arranged for Fang Yishan to go to Xuzhou for the elderly, she happened to be on duty in the imperial study. I don't know if Fang Yishan really didn't understand the deep meaning of the emperor's move, or if he was snucker? The latter is more likely. In the entire temple, if you talk about who is the best at figuring out the emperor's intentions, Fang Yishan is the second, no one is the first.
Mother Zhen put down the gift list and said with a smile: "According to the old slave, this gift list is the movement between the little sisters who are usually good friends. And this lotus brush wash and this pair of celadon plum vases seem to have been added by Mrs. Fang. ”
Lan Xin held the teacup, sipped the tea in his hand, and chewed Jane's mother's words carefully. "Easy", "added", a few short words, very intriguing. It seems that in Zhen's mother's heart, the other party's family is very dissatisfied with this awkward practice. It seems that it is not accidental that the old man of the Fang family chose to retire in Xuzhou. Blinking his eyes, he asked with a smile, "Then according to my mother's opinion, I just need to prepare some gifts for Sister Fang Ning?"
"The old slave has a humble opinion. In addition to suitable gifts, the girl can also prepare some mooncakes. Our kitchen will make several kinds of mooncakes with different ingredients, and the girl can choose a few flavors to send over. These flavors are suitable for all ages. Mother Jane said with a smile.
Lan Xin's eyes lit up, and Zhen's mother meant that since it was a movement between friends, she would send something suitable for the relationship between the two. As for Old Madam Fang, there is no need to prepare gifts separately. There will be flavors that Old Madam Fang likes in those moon cakes, and it will depend on how Fang Ning arranges them when the time comes.
I don't need to do anything here, just like Old Madam Fang mixed things into Fang Ning's gift list and didn't say anything. In fact, Old Madam Fang's doing this also meant to be tempting. I just want to see how Lan Xin returns the gift.
Lan Xin nodded happily and said, "Just do it according to Mother Zhen's wishes." Mother Jane saw that Lan Xin's eyes were clear, and the smile in her eyes deepened. When talking to someone like this, you don't have to talk too much. Nodding with satisfaction, he agreed: "Since the girl thinks it is good, after the old slave goes down for a while, he will tell them to start preparing the raw materials, so as not to rush when they get it." ”
"Well, let Mom bother. Lan Xin said with a smile, and after thinking about it, he said, "By the way, in addition to the Sihe gifts, Lord Lu of Governor Lu will send a few boxes of mooncakes made in the house." ”
Jane's mother drank tea for a moment, then continued to drink, pretending not to hear anything. Mother Liu glanced at Mother Zhen and noticed Mother Zhen's small movement just now. For fear that she would think too much, and when the time comes, she will do something unfavorable to the girl, frowning, thinking about it, and carefully dissuading: "Girl, we don't usually have any contact with the prefect's mansion, so it's not okay to give gifts rashly?!"
"It's okay. Lan Xin waved his hand disappreciatively. Mother Liu saw that Lan Xin didn't understand the deep meaning of her words, and this heart suddenly came up, because of the presence of Zhen's mother, she squirmed her lips, and she didn't know how to open her mouth to remind. When he was in a hurry, he listened to Lan Xin continue, "Speaking of which, this newly appointed Lord Lu and his father also know each other. Back then, his father inadvertently helped him once, and he was grateful and did not forget it.
When he first arrived in Jiangzhou, he also went to the house to worship his father's tablet. I saw that he was an elegant man, not like a traitor. Moreover, after so many years, he still remembers his father's helping hand. I think he's an elder who deserves respect. If he doesn't want to move around with us, we just don't move around. ”
"Surname Lu?" said Liu's mother after a while, "Then it should be the person who was almost discarded because of a painting." I didn't expect him to become the prefect now, and he is also the prefect of Jiangzhou. Mother Liu's voice became lower and lower, her eyes were red, and her eyes were a little empty and confused. She remembered that at that time, it was her and Yuzhi who were by Madame's side. The lady has a big belly, and the girl has not yet been born. The lord protected his wife very well, and he never blushed with his wife. And she and Yuzhi, although sometimes they quarrel and argue, but their relationship has never changed. And now・・・・・・
Mother Jane looked at the cup of tea, her mind racing. There are only two or three officials surnamed Lu who are among the best in the court, and the girl just said that the elegant one can only be Lu Sheng. I didn't expect him to have such a relationship with the Yu family. It's just that he is the cousin of the eldest lady of the Fang family, is it a coincidence that he went to Jiangzhou or is it deliberately arranged by someone?
For a while, the room fell into silence, until the red-sleeved curtain came in and broke the silence in the room, "Girl, a young master who claims to be surnamed Lu is visiting. ”
