Chapter 156: Guest
In the following days, in addition to walking among the Zhuangzi, learning about the situation in the Zhuangzi, and looking for opportunities to make glass, Lan Xin followed Zhen's mother to learn. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Two hours a day, one hour in the morning, Zhen's mother taught her some rules and etiquette, and also guided Qinghe and Dongxiu by the way. After eating at noon, walk slowly around the yard for two quarters of an hour and then take a nap. One hour in the afternoon, Zhen's mother taught some royal techniques, things about the way to govern the family, and also talked about some human contacts. These are exactly what Lan Xin needs most at the moment.
Lan Xin is sometimes curious about the rules of etiquette, in addition to the usual etiquette rules, when he meets the princes and nobles, and even when he meets the emperor. Jane's mother will have a calm face and patiently teach her one by one. There was not the slightest impatience, nor did I feel overstepping. Lan Xin looked at Zhen's mother's serious and stern attitude, her eyes flashed slightly, and she couldn't help but think: Is it in that person's heart, as long as she doesn't do things that harm the Great Sect Dynasty, he can tolerate it?
At the end of the afternoon class, Lan Xin sat in the gazebo, drinking the sweet soup that Jane's mother specially made for her. Since Zhen's mother confessed to the Lord, she began to regulate Lan Xin's body, so as not to accumulate the cold qi of this serious illness in her body and leave the root of the disease. Jane's mother's craftsmanship is naturally not to say, the sweet soup is sweet but not greasy, and the coolness of mint is very refreshing. The cool breeze is all around, so it's not pleasant.
"Girl, there is a girl at the door of Zhuangzi, who claims to be the fifth girl of the Fang family, and says that she is your friend. "A little maid who had just left her head came in to report in a clever manner, perhaps because she was in a hurry, and her little face was flushed.
"Sister Ning, why is she here?" Lan Xin asked in surprise as she put down her spoon and pressed the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. The little girl shook her head and said, "The slave doesn't know." "The little girl has a round apple face, a pair of big and bright eyes, because she is missing two front teeth, so she speaks a little leaky. Lan Xin was amused by her appearance and instructed Dongxiu to fill her with the snacks on the table.
"Thank you, girl. The little girl smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed together, and she quickly kowtowed to thank her.
Because she and Fang Ning were also friends with handkerchiefs, and it was not good for her to wait at the door for too long, she didn't go back to the house to change clothes, so she took Qinghe and Zhen's mother out to greet her. Looking at Fang Ning standing next to the carriage, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he couldn't help but speed up his pace.
Fang Ning couldn't help but widen his eyes as he looked at Lan Xin, who greeted him with a smile. I saw that the visitor was wearing a double-ring bun, fixing the hair on both sides with a pair of purple crystal tassel beads, and pressing a few silver tins on the sideburns. As the girl walked, the tassels shook slightly, shining, and the whole person was very smart.
Light purple half-sleeved bicarapace, ivory brocade long skirt, a blooming violet embroidered from the waist to the skirt. The dark purple silk silk tied the slender waist that could not be grasped, and an ink-colored jade plaque hung on it, the shape seemed rough but simple and gloomy. The lotus step moves lightly, and the color is alive. Fang Ning couldn't find the right words to describe this amazing touch for a while. There are only four words that pop up in my head: "Reborn." ”
Mother Du raised her eyes to look at Lan Xin, and when she saw that the whole person was radiant and not decadent that she had been kicked out of the house, she looked away. When he saw Mother Zhen behind Lan Xin, his eyes froze, and there was surprise in his complicated eyes that could not be concealed. The man folded his hands in front of his abdomen, hung his head slightly, and followed behind Lan Xin obediently. It can be seen from the walking posture that this person really regards Lan Xin as the main thing.
Mother Du has been with Mrs. Fang for many years, and her knowledge is naturally wider than that of ordinary people. Although Mother Zhen's actions and demeanors are no different from those of the housekeepers in other houses, her all-round style still makes Mother Du think at a glance that she is a person from the palace. Moreover, the rank when he was in the palace was not low. This is unpredictable, how can there be people in the palace on this Zhuangzi?
Lan Xin walked a few steps, and after greeting Fang Ning, he held her hand and asked with a smile, "Sister Ning, I'm so happy to see you!"
"Still laughing, dead girl!" Fang Ning nodded her forehead and said angrily, "After I knew about you, I was worried about death." You don't know if someone can send me a letter or leave a message. Is it that if I don't come today, you're going to forget about me as a friend?"
Lan thought to herself that this was really the case, although she was not the grandfather of the emperor, she also did not think about who to talk to. Coupled with Fang Jing's unreasonable troubles and asking her to kowtow, she even held a grudge against the entire Fang family. If Fang Ning hadn't come to Zhuangzi today, she wouldn't have remembered the Fang family anymore and had any dealings with the Fang family.
Of course, Lan Xin will not show it at all. She took Fang Ning's hand and said pitifully: "At that time, things were chaotic, and I was in a hurry, so I didn't care about these. Sister Ning, you have a lot of adults, so don't blame your sister. ”
Fang Ning remembered that she was a little girl's house at that time, and she was kicked out of the house by her closest people, and her fiancé betrayed her. It's sad to think about being alone, homeless, and having to go away. Besides, she didn't really blame her, seeing Lan Xin pretending to be pitiful with her, she softened, and said seriously: "I don't blame you, I just feel sorry for you." Then he said angrily, "Oh, if we hadn't gone to my aunt's house at that time, it would have been good to stay in Xuzhou." You won't suffer so much. ”
Lan Xin just smiled after hearing it, but he didn't take it seriously. Even if Fang Ning was afraid of sisterhood, who knew how Old Lady Fang and Old Lady would choose? Didn't the second lady of the Fang family return Rong Jing and Evian to be Quanfu? Besides, there is no if in this world. She smiled and said, "Sister, don't think about it so much, things have already passed, you see, I'm not doing well now, right?"
"Yes, seeing that you look so good, my heart is also relieved. Fang Ning looked at it from head to toe again and said, "Before I came, I was still thinking about it, and I didn't know what you would look like! ”
"Hehe, it's all mine, Sister Ning is worried. Lan Xin said with a smile, "Although my Zhuangzi is not big, the scenery is still okay, and there are a few good places worth visiting." My sister stayed here for a few more days, and I walked around with my sister to entertain my sister well, which can be regarded as a shock to my sister. ”
"That's what you said, don't dislike me for eating and drinking for nothing and not leaving. Fang Ning was not polite to her, and said with a smile.
"As long as my sister likes it, she can stay as long as she wants. Lan Xin patted his chest and reassured, laughing along. After a few people entered Zhuangzi, Dongxiu brought someone over, with a decent smile on his face, and said in a respectful tone: "The slave maid has seen the girl, and I have seen the girl. Girl, the Wisteria Courtyard has been cleaned up. ”
"Well, got it. Lan Xin nodded, and then explained to Fang Ning with a smile, "I didn't know that Sister Ning was coming in advance, so I didn't prepare well." This wisteria courtyard is the closest to the rose courtyard where I live now, and it is usually cleaned, and all the utensils inside are quite complete. It's just that the yard is smaller, I hope Sister Ning won't dislike it. ”
"You and my sisters will see each other when they talk about this. If I don't like it, I won't come. I'm planning to stay longer. Fang Ning said with a straight face, pretending to be annoyed.
"Hey, look at my mouth, when my sister comes, she won't be able to speak, and she always makes her angry. Lan Xin grinned and hugged her arm and said with annoyance. Fang Ning stretched out a jade-white finger and pointed at her forehead, and scolded with a smile: "Why didn't you see it before, you are such a scoundrel?"
The two of them laughed and came to the Wisteria Temple. The wisteria flowers in the courtyard are all over the shelves, and the lush branches and leaves are dotted with beautiful wisteria flowers, like strings of pearls and bunches of grapes. A faint fragrance comes to the nose, which makes people feel refreshed.
"Wow!" Fang Ning excitedly stood under the wisteria trellis, looking left and right, "The originally inconspicuous bunches of purple flowers, planting them together like this are very interesting." ”
Lan Xin watched Fang Ning carrying her skirt and running around childishly under the wisteria flower stand, and said with a smile: "If my sister likes this flower shelf." I'll have people set up tables and chairs here, and I'll be here tonight to pick up the wind for my sister. ”
"Wow!" Fang Ning agreed without thinking about it, and looked at Lan Xin expectantly, his eyes glowing with excitement.
Mother Du frowned disapprovingly. Although the weather is warm now, it is still a little cool at night, what if it freezes the girl? Besides, at night the mosquitoes and flies come out, flying around, how can people eat? What if they bite the girl?
Lan Xin's eyes swept to Du's mother's ugly face, knowing what she was thinking, but she wouldn't explain. In the past, Mother Du came to the house on behalf of Mrs. Fang, so she naturally had to treat her with courtesy. And today, she is just the housekeeper mother next to Fang Ning, no matter what her identity is, there is no need to take a high look. Moreover, the Fang family's ambiguous and ambiguous attitude also made her very angry.
"Alright, that's it. Lan Xin said with a smile, "Let's go, I'll accompany my sister into the house to have a look," he said, holding Fang Ning's arm and walking into the house with a smile.
The room is clean and tidy, and a blooming purple rose is inserted in a vase on the high table by the window, which makes the whole room look vibrant. The bedding in the inner room was all new, and the color was Fang Ning's favorite sky blue. The white porcelain vase on the dresser is filled with red roses, and the fragrance is refreshing.
Ever since Fang Ning entered the house, the corners of her mouth had been slightly upturned. From the time she entered the village to now, it was only two quarters of an hour, and Lan Xin actually cleaned up this room in an orderly manner, and it was all cleaned up according to her preferences, and she admired her in her heart. I only thought that Ziyi was capable, but I didn't expect that the little girl just now was not bad. smiled and sighed: "It's really a strong general, there are no weak soldiers under him! My sister is smart and capable, and the people around her are also smart." In a short period of time, the house was cleaned up so neatly, my sister was really admired and speechless. ”
"Hehe, it's good if my sister is satisfied. Lan Xinmei said with a smile, "These roses are all folded from my yard, and I don't know if my sister likes them or not." ”
"Of course I like it!" Fang Ning picked up the vase, put her nose on the red rose, and sniffed deeply, "Well, it's so fragrant!"
"My sister likes it, and I'm relieved. Lan Xin said with a smile, "My sister is tired of traveling, so I will rest my sister." When my sister is resting, the two of us sisters will have a good talk. ”
"Well, when you say that, I'm really sleepy. Fang Ning was not polite to her, and covered her mouth and yawned.
"Then sister, hurry up and rest. Lan Xin said, and walked out with a smile. Seeing Mother Du at the door, she bowed half-salute and greeted with a smile: "I haven't seen my mother for a long time, how is my mother?"
"Thanks to the girl, the old slave's body and bones are okay. Mother Du had a decent smile on her face, and a hint of imperceptible arrogance, "It's just, girl······"
"Mom is in good health and I'm very happy. Lan Xin said with a smile, not giving her a chance to speak. Although she has no identity and no background, now that she is in charge of the Yu family, not everyone can point fingers, especially people like this who rely on the old and sell the old. If you do not agree to have a feast in the courtyard, you should dissuade your girl, instead of preaching in front of me. "Mom has worked hard all the way, but she has to rest. I won't bother. ”
"Girl. Du's mother shouted, "That ······" Lan Xin paused, turned around, looked at Mother Du, and said with a smile: "If there is any need, just tell the little girls in the yard to treat this place as your own Zhuangzi, don't be polite." "Do you really think that if I don't have a family, I can step on two feet casually?
Mother Du tried to speak three times and twice, but was interrupted by Lan Xin, only to feel that she couldn't wipe her face, and she turned around and entered the house. I was a little uneasy, according to what she and the old lady said, Lan Xin was lonely now, and when she saw the fifth girl coming, she should be grateful. is naturally respectful to her, after all, she is the person next to the old lady. But looking at her current attitude, how can she be a down-and-out person's consciousness? Is there anything she can't rely on?
Zhen's mother watched coldly, and was very relieved that Lan Xin was able to withstand Du's mother's pressure and hardened. Lan Xin looked at the loving and proud smile on Zhen's mother's face, and the smile on her face deepened, and said, "I still have to worry about my mother cleaning up here." ”
"Don't worry, girl, the old slave will definitely do it. Mother Zhen said with a smile, and after speaking, she glanced at Lan Xin meaningfully.
"Well, I've always been relieved of my mother's errands. Lan Xin said with a pun.
Mother Du's slightly gloomy face stretched out after seeing Fang Ning. smiled and asked, "The girl must be tired, the old slave asked someone to bring water over and wait for the girl to wash." ”
"It's up to my mother to do it, just let Xiaoli come. Fang Ning put down the flower in his hand and said with a smile.
