Chapter 19 Cooperation with the Bai Family
Yesterday afternoon, Ding Yiyi and Ding Dashan and his wife chatted all afternoon, and went to bed early after dinner. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info In this era, there is no electricity, large families hang two lanterns at the door of the house, and poor people are not willing to waste a candle, and they will go to bed early, which is why there are many children at this time, because there are no activities to recreation at night, and the poorer the children, the more.
There are few children in the Ding family, there are seven or eight children in that family, Ding Yiyi thought that it was good that there were few children in the family, otherwise a large group of children would die in chaos. Ding Yiyi couldn't sleep on the bed, turning over and over like a pancake.
The moonlight shone through the window, and the room was much brighter, and the things in the room could be seen clearly, such as the antique wardrobe, the carved dresser, a yellow pear table with a teapot and bowl of blue and white porcelain, and a glass lamp next to it.
Ding Yiyi thought that when he first crossed over, there was not even a decent bed at home, and the only bed that could sleep was a clay kang, which was covered with an old quilt when his father and mother got married more than ten years ago. Ding Yiyi looked at the gauze tent above her head, the pink gauze tent hung down the wisps of tassels, and the body was covered with a new quilt made of satin.
After tossing and turning for a long time, I finally entered the dream, and when I woke up again, it was already dawn. "Miss, it's time to get up, aren't you going to visit Master Bai in the White Mansion today? The old lady is already waiting for you in the living room. ”
Ding Yiyi rubbed her eyes and sat up: "Cuilian, bring the pink dress in my closet." Ding Yiyi said while putting on her underwear, and when Cuilian brought the skirt, she was already dressed. Ding Yiyi put her skirt on the outside, sat on the edge of the bed and put on embroidered shoes, the shoes were made of cuilian, and the pink embroidered shoes were embroidered with peony flowers, and the stamens were decorated with a few pearls the size of rice grains.
Ding Yiyi sat in front of the mirror after washing and asked Cuilian to comb her hair, usually she simply combed her hairstyle, and today she wants to go to Baifu to let Cuilian help her comb her hairstyle. Cuilian put the upper part of the Ding Yiyi into a bun, and the lower part braided a few twisted braids, and decorated the ends of her hair with plum blossom-like silk flowers. Cuilian took a plum blossom-style hosta and inserted it into Ding Yiyi's hair bun, and the tassel made of jade beads was decorated under the hosta, which made Ding Yiyi's already beautiful face even more pretty.
"Miss, you are so pretty, like a little fairy. Cuilian looked at Ding Yiyi's eyes brightly. "My Cuilian is also a little fairy!" Ding Yiyi looked at Cuilian and said seriously. "Miss, you love to make fun of me. Cuilian lowered her head and blushed.
Ding Yiyi went to the living room after dressing up, Ding Dashan and Ding Chen were waiting for her to have breakfast, Ding Yiyi sat at the table and shouted Cuilian: "Cuilian, there are no outsiders at home, you come over to eat together!" Ding Dashan and Ding Chen also asked Cuilian to sit down to eat together, and Cuilian sat next to Ding Yiyi after the meal.
After breakfast, Ding Yiyi asked Ding Dashan to change her clothes and accompany her to Baifu, "It's not appropriate for you to go to Baifu by yourself as a little girl, you wait for me for a while, and I'll come after I change my clothes." Ding Dashan went to the bedroom to change clothes, and Ding Chen also followed to see if Xiao Chen woke up.
Ding Dashan wore a blue robe when he came out again, Ding Yiyi's eyes lit up at first glance, her father was like a middle-aged handsome uncle, it seems that her appearance also has the credit of her father.
Ding Dashan brought out a delicate keg from his home, which contained a barrel of peanut oil. He took Ding Yiyi Cuilian to Baifu together, because it was not far from Baifu, so they decided to walk, they could buy some gifts by the way, and they couldn't go empty-handed when they visited Baifu for the first time, which seemed rude. On the way, I passed by a shop selling pastries and bought a few boxes of exquisite pastries, and half of the shops on the street were from the Bai family, so I didn't buy anything else.
When I arrived at the door of Baifu, I saw two domestic servants standing at the door, and the domestic servants had seen Ding Yiyi, and she and Bai Jinyu passed through Baifu once that time. Ding Dashan said to the servant: "We have something to see Master Bai, I don't know if he is in the mansion?" "The master is in the mansion, wait a minute, I'll report it." The servant on the left said that he went into the house to report.
Ding Dashan and the others waited for a while before they saw the servants coming out of the house: "Two, the master invites the two of you in." Ding Dashan and Ding Yiyi Cuilian followed the servants into the White Mansion, into the eyes is an antique building, a rockery in the courtyard is located in the middle of the pond, the pond is planted with lotus flowers, the breeze blows, the lotus leaves will float, set off layers of green waves. There is a small pavilion by the pond with stone tables and benches.
Ding Dashan and the others followed the servants along the cobblestone path to the living room, Bai Zhixiang was already waiting for them in the living room, and when they came in, Bai Zhixiang stood up and said with a smile: "The visit of Master Ding and Miss Ding really makes my Baifu shine." Ding Dashan said with a smile: "Master Bai is laughing, Master Bai is a busy person, I hope that the little girl and I will not disturb Master Bai." Saying that, let Cuilian give the gift: "Be careful, not a respect, and I hope that Master Bai will not dislike it." "Where, where, I have heard the name of the Ding family for a long time, and it is really fortunate to see it today." ”
The two politely sat down with the guest and the host, and Bai Zhixiang asked people to carry things down, also known as the maid serving tea. "This is Miss Ding, right? Bai Zhixiang looked at Ding Yiyi and said, remembering that last time Lao Li of Linglong Pavilion told him that his son Jinyu seemed to be a little special to Miss Ding, and couldn't help but look at Ding Yiyi twice, but the little girl was a smart person.
"Master Bai praised it falsely, it is the little girl, we came to discuss with you this time about purchasing duck down to make a down jacket and duvet, I don't know what Master Bai thinks?" Ding Dashan said straight to the point.
"I wonder what are the advantages of this clothes made of duck down?" Bai Zhixiang asked with interest.
"Let the little girl Yiyi tell the details, it's her idea that came up with it. Ding Dashan looked at Ding Yiyi.
"Really, Miss Ding, please tell us more about this down product. Bai Zhixiang looked at Ding Yiyi and admired it, this little girl is very business-minded, and her son Jinyu is slightly inferior to her, if this girl is a man, she will make a big difference.
