Chapter 292: Slap in the face
If it is seen by outsiders who come in and out, it is a very shameful thing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
But Xianglan didn't care and directly opened the bead curtain.
Xianglan said softly: "Peach, bring a bowl of tea." ”
Tao'er put down the things in her hand and responded, "Yes." ”
The bead curtain shook, and Su Xin saw the furnishings in the hug building, and then was stunned.
The furnishings of this room were even more luxurious than what their wives usually used.
The things in each room of the An family are registered, and the valuable furnishings are rarely used by the third lady on weekdays.
Therefore, they have three rooms, and only when there are guests coming, will they use those valuable items to support the scene.
Xing'er also put down the things in her hand, followed behind Tao'er, got up and saluted, and both of them walked out one after the other without saying a word.
Xianglan explained in a whisper: "When our young lady reads in the morning, there can be no other voices in the room. ”
The third lady ignored Xianglan and walked straight in.
The original furnishings in the house have all been replaced, and the two rooms on the east side were originally Anping's study, and there is no separation between the two rooms, only a large screen separates the main living room from the study.
The two rooms to the west are bedrooms, also separated by screens.
A strong scent of sandalwood filled the room, and it was rare for a woman's boudoir to use sandalwood, because the best sandalwood was to be transported from Persia and was very valuable.
Then Xiangju walked out, she saw that the third lady was stunned at first, and then directly saluted, and without even calling anyone, she walked to the door and shouted: "Hanxiang, prepare a snack." ”
Han Xiang hurriedly responded: "Yes." With that, he walked away quickly.
After a while, I saw peaches, apricots, and Hanxiang all coming in with things.
Tao'er walked in the front, she was holding a jade incense burner, and the incense burner had been lit with sandalwood, and it was smoking at the moment.
Because the doors and windows are open, there is no smoke in the house.
Su Xin's eyes looked directly at the incense burner in Tao'er's hand, and it wasn't until Tao'er entered the screen that she looked away.
Apricot followed behind, holding a silver basin engraved with auspicious clouds in her hand.
And Han Xiang walked in with the freshly brewed tea bowl at the end.
Their speed and proficiency show that they do these things regularly.
Xiangju checked it, and then went over to invite Dong Ruyi over, and by the way, the third lady was sitting in the middle room.
Dong Ruyi walked out with a smile, "Why did the third cousin come over?" said and bowed and walked over.
Xianglan smiled: "There are slaves and maids, Miss can rest assured." ”
Dong Ruyi nodded, not feeling that there was anything wrong with this, and then said: "I want to eat something, if the third cousin and aunt are not in a hurry to go back, accompany me to the west room to sit down." ”
She didn't ask for it, but said plainly, you either go or watch me eat.
Dong Ruyi didn't wait for the third lady to answer, and walked in around the screen.
Xianglan explained: "Our young lady is very busy on weekdays, and the time is relatively tight, and the third lady is in a good hurry today, if the young lady is not hungry, I am afraid that the lady will still wait." ”
The third lady sneered: "A girl who has not left the cabinet, I would like to see how busy she is." She said and walked in.
Dong Ruyi had just washed his hands at the moment, and Xiangju was handing over the cloth towel, and then took it back skillfully.
And the third lady looked at the furnishings of this room and was stunned directly at the door.
In today's hot weather, they use high-quality bamboo mats, but Dong Ruyi uses jade mats here.
As for the jade mat spread on this bed, a thousand taels of silver may not be bought.
Dong Ruyi turned around and saw the third lady's face that she had never seen the world.
Then he smiled and said: "The third cousin and aunt are sitting, you're welcome, they are all things that can't be put on the table, and the third cousin and aunt don't think I'm shabby and shabby here." ”
When the third lady heard this, her face was hot and painful, which was obviously laughing at her for being poor and sour. If none of these things can be put on the table, then what is the thing she has there?
Dong Ruyi went directly to the bed, Xiangju moved the red silk pillow on the couch, and waited for Dong Ruyi to sit comfortably, then walked to the door and called Liao's mother outside to come in.
Liao's mother opened the food box and took out eight small pastries and put them on the small table, and then stood aside.
Dong Ruyi said: "Don't dislike the third cousin, please feel free to use it." ”
As she spoke, she picked up a piece and ate it in small bites.
The third lady only ate an ordinary hibiscus cake, sweet and delicious, sweet but not greasy, if she hadn't come over this time, she would have asked how it was done.
The third lady said: "My cousin came here today because you said that your cousin was leaving, and my cousin and aunt wanted..."
Dong Ruyi didn't wait for the third lady to finish speaking, and interrupted: "Third cousin, please wait for a while." ”
She turned her head to look at Liao's mother who was standing on the side and asked, "Mom, is there anything else?"
Liao's mother saluted and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that we have greeted the people in the big kitchen before, saying that we want them to help prepare a good table of noodles."
Didn't that happen a while ago, and this thing has been dragged on. The man in the big kitchen asked again, and the slave and maid discussed it with Xianglan and Xiangju girls, and set the day after tomorrow, thinking that they would drive out the menu today and send it to others as soon as possible.
It's just that the slave doesn't know the An family, and she doesn't know whether these dishes are suitable or not, so she thought that if the Suxin girl came today, could she ask the Suxin girl to help her. ”
Dong Ruyi smiled: "What should I do? Since I am asking for a Suxin girl, then you have to ask the third cousin." ”
Seeing this, the third lady waved her hand and motioned to Su Xin to show her.
When a slave interrupted what she was about to say, she was a little unhappy.
Seeing this, Su Xin went to the side with Liao's mother.
Liao's mother handed over a piece of paper with great gratitude.
Su Xin took a look, and her face was a little unpleasant.
Dong Ruyi continued: "Third cousin, please continue?"
The third lady nodded, and just as she was about to speak, Su Xin shouted, "Madam..."
Dong Ruyi and the people in the room all looked at Su Xin.
The third lady's mood was even worse, and she didn't even know the rules so much.
Su Xin smiled hard and said, "The slave doesn't know a few words, so let's ask Mrs. to help take a look." After all, Miss Dong has just come to settle down, and it would be bad if she made a joke. ”
As she spoke, she handed over the menu that Liao's mother had just given her.
The third lady was a little puzzled, Su Xin had followed her for many years and was literate.
She looked at Su Xin's slightly trembling hand and took it directly.
Then her face turned ugly, and there were not many dishes on the menu, a total of twelve dishes.
But every dish here costs seven or eight taels of silver, and the third lady looked at it from beginning to end, and the lowest-grade dish was the eight-treasure chicken with six taels of silver.
