Chapter 281: Fragrance
"Then bother to lead the way. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Lan Xin said with a smile.
The little girl looked at Lan Xin in surprise, but Madame said that this girl is cautious by nature, and it may take a lot of time to speak. However, before she could say the words she had prepared, she agreed, did she recognize the wrong person?
Lan Xin looked at the little girl's entangled look, raised her eyebrows, and asked pretending to be puzzled: "Didn't you say that your wife wants to see me? Why don't you leave? Could it be that Sister Mu also invited someone else?"
"Oh, no. My wife only invited the girl. Girl, please come with the slave and maid. The little girl reacted quickly, her eyes rolled, and she bowed down to ask Lan Xin to move forward.
Lan Xin took Qinghe and Hongxuan, and followed behind the little girl with a smile. The little girl led them out the back door, through the backyard, and along the verandah. Lan Xin looked at the scenery on both sides, and secretly said in his heart: Mrs. Mu's residence must be cut off by this garden.
Sure enough, after turning around the verandah twice, I walked down the cobblestone path of the garden. The flowers and trees on both sides are luxuriant, and at first glance they look like they have been carefully cared for. After walking along the cobblestone path for about a quarter of an hour, the little girl led them up the steps up the hill. After walking about fifteen or sixteen steps, the little girl stopped, pointed to the pavilion halfway up the mountain, and said, "Miss Yu, my wife is waiting for you in the pavilion! ”
"Girl, you ・・・・・・" Qinghe called out uneasily. Lan Xin shook her head at her, signaling her not to worry, and said with a smile: "You and Hongxuan wait for me here, I'll just go up alone." Looking at the little girl, she said lightly, "This girl has taken care of the two of them." ”
"Don't dare, the jade girl has tormented the slave. The little girl hurriedly saluted and said, her face was very frightened.
Lan Xin nodded at Hongxuan and Qinghe, and walked towards the pavilion with her skirt in her hand. "Two sisters, please sit here. The little girl's voice was crisp and invited Qinghe and Hongxuan to sit on the stone bench. After Qinghe and Hongxuan sat down, they realized that from their position, they could clearly see everything in the pavilion, but they couldn't hear what the people in the pavilion were saying. The two glanced at each other in unison, exchanging a look that only they understood.
The little girl seemed to have no idea about the small actions of the two of them in private, picked up the teapot that had been placed on the stone table a long time ago, and smiled and said, "Two sisters, please drink tea." As he spoke, he filled their cups with tea. Pushed the snacks on the table again, and greeted, "This is a newly made red bean cake, which is different from the previous hospitality, the two sisters try it." ”
When Lan Xin walked to the pavilion, Mrs. Mu was making tea. The water in the kettle above the small red clay stove on the corner of the table was steaming. Under the heat, Mrs. Mu's skillful technique of making tea, flowing clouds and water, like a fairy dancing in the nine heavens, is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off.
Lan Xin didn't see it, he sat on the circle chair opposite, put his hands on the desk, and praised with a smile: "The movements of making tea are so beautiful, presumably my sister's tea must be very delicious, right?"
"Cut, flim tongue. Mrs. Mu raised her head, glared at her with disgust, then lowered her head again and continued the movement in her hand. While using bamboo tweezers to fish out the cup in the hot water, he blamed, "Someone went to invite you, and without even asking a word, he followed the person." I don't know where all your usual caution has gone. ”
"Hey, hey. Lan Xin smiled nonchalantly, "What will happen to my sister? It is said that my sister is strict, so I didn't think much about it." ”
"Nonsense!" Mrs. Mu glared at her dissatisfiedly, "What about the tiger when he still naps! Thinking of the betrayal and bribery of the people around him, I couldn't help but frown.
"My sister taught me that my sister was taught. Lan Xin stood up and curtsied to Mrs. Mu solemnly. Actually, it wasn't that she was careless, but that they were secretly following Aunt Bing.
"Alright, alright, don't make trouble, sit down. Mrs. Mu was troubled by her like this, and a smile finally appeared on her tense face. Pushed a cup of tea to her hand, urging, "Taste it, is this tea the same as you imagined?" He took a sip lightly and said modestly, "It's okay, sister, try it." ”
Lan Xin smiled and picked up the tea in front of him, followed the example of Mrs. Mu, put the teacup under his nose and sniffed. Lan Xin's brows were slightly raised, she seemed to smell a light aroma, although she didn't know what kind of spice it was, but it was definitely not the fragrance of tea. Subconsciously sniffed deeply in that direction.
Raising his eyes to Mrs. Shangmu's calm and waveless eyes, his heart trembled, but he said with a smile on his face: "Don't hide it from my sister, my sister actually doesn't pay much attention to tea." No matter how good the tea arrives at my sister, it is like a cow chewing a peony. As he spoke, he picked up the tea in his hand and drank it all.
Shy and shy pushed the cup back in front of Mrs. Mu, raised her eyes to look around the pavilion, and said with a smile: "However, my sister smelled the fragrance of osmanthus just now. It seems to be more fragrant than the one in my sister's house. As he spoke, his nose sniffed hard in the air. I was vigilant in my heart: That's right, there is another person on the right hand side of this pavilion. can use spices, it's definitely not a dark guard. I just don't know what he wants to do when he's hiding there?
Mrs. Mu pushed the refilled teacup in front of Lan Xin, looked at Lan Xin's way of sniffing around, her face relaxed, and said with a smile: "This osmanthus tree is nearly a hundred years old, and the flowers that bloom are of course different from other trees. ”
"Really?" Lan Xin said in surprise, "Wouldn't it be more fragrant and sweeter if the osmanthus candy made from its flowers?" I don't know when my sister's house made osmanthus candy, but don't forget to leave a few pieces for my sister." ”
"We don't make osmanthus candy in our house. If my sister likes it, I will have someone pick some osmanthus flowers and send them to your house. Mrs. Mu shook her head with a wry smile.
"Okay, then thank you sister. Lan Xin looked at Mrs. Mu's gradually loosened eyebrows, pursed her lips and said, "Sister can let people send more past, in addition to osmanthus candy, you can also make some osmanthus cakes." ”
It seems that I am too careful. Looking at Lan Xin's cheerful appearance, Mrs. Mu thought in her heart.
