Chapter 131: Return
While the two were talking, Li also arrived with Tu Manfen and Tu Manzhen. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After moving in with the Xu family, the mother and daughter also came to Qingzhuyuan for the first time. When I entered the courtyard, I saw that the people were all cautious, busy but not cluttered, and it was obvious that they were well-trained. On the plain silk all around, the landscape is indifferent, the toon is smart and fresh, and the spring is full of joy.
After getting the reward, Xu Wanzhen came out with Sang Zi. It is said that with the Li family's generation, it should be welcomed by the same generation, but Qingzhuyuan has no other master except for the ancestors and grandchildren, so it has to be welcomed by Xu Wan. Fortunately, with her current status in charge, she will not be rude.
Xu Wanzhen greeted politely: "Hello eldest cousin, good cousin, second cousin." ”
With a smile in his eyes, Li praised and said, "Zhen'er, this arrangement is very ingenious. In the future, if I want to be a banquet guest, I will also ask you to help. ”
Xu Wanzhen hurriedly said a few words of modesty, and welcomed a few people into the flower hall.
Tu Manfen followed behind Li, her face was indifferent, but her heart was becoming more and more jealous. This Xu Wan really has too many tricks. Tu Manzhen saw the landscape on the plain silk, and was quite curious, so she stepped forward to take a look.
The masters are talking in the flower hall, and only the personal maids are waiting. The painting hall next to Li's side, Gui Yu of Yan's family, Tu Manfen's silver screen, and Tu Manzhen's side are followed by Swifts. Cui Sleeves waited outside the door with those second-class maids.
Standing with those little maids, Cui Sleeves looked out of place. The little maids also knew that she had been snubbed by Miss Tu Er recently, and kept looking at her curiously. She lowered her head slightly, her eyes did not squint, her fist secretly clenched in her hand, and she couldn't help but be a little nervous about what happened next. Encourage yourself in your heart: "It's all right after today." Miss Xu said, when the banquet is held, when I see the last dish, I can spill the vegetable soup on the second lady. ”
The sky gradually darkened, and when it was time to unitary, Tu Hongyi, Tu Bowen got off the ya, and Tu Bosi also came back from the academy, and they all changed their clothes and came to Qingzhuyuan. The lights in the garden were lit, and the old lady Tu compared the knowledge of the two grandchildren.
Su Liangzhi found a medical center in Beijing these days, and after giving acupuncture to Mrs. Tu at noon every day, he went to Luoyang City to sit in the hall. At this time, he also came to Qingzhuyuan, diagnosed the pulse of the old lady Tu, and said with a smile: "The old lady has a lot of bones." It's about to be summer, and winter diseases are cured in summer. After this summer, it should be fine. ”
Old lady Tu twisted her beard and said happily: "Sure enough, he is worthy of Su Xiao's divine doctor in Jiangnan Province." Even the Imperial Doctor didn't dare to say such a sure thing to me. ”
Feng Xing's family set up the dishes, chopsticks and hors d'oeuvres in the warm pavilion, and Xu Wanzhen came to invite Old Lady Tu to the table.
Since they were all members of their own families, there was no internal and external table, and the men sat at one table and the women at one table.
Wu Niangzi helped Mrs. Tu into the warm pavilion, and saw that there were only two large round tables here, and there was a large plum bottle in the corner of the wall with a few apricot blossoms, and the surroundings were still surrounded by plain silk, but there was no other furniture at all, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised. Old Lady Tu frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
The Tu brothers and sisters, the Li family, the color and others who followed him also had questions. This toon banquet is managed by Xu Wanzhen, and the Qingzhu Garden is exquisitely arranged inside and outside, and it makes no sense that there is not even a screen in this warm pavilion. Only Old Madam Xu glanced at it, and she understood Xu Wan's true intentions, and a smile crept up the corner of her mouth.
Xu Wanzhen stepped forward and replied: "Back to my great-grandfather's words, because I only changed this place into a warm pavilion a few days ago." Zhen'er has already ordered a screen and an arhat bed, but it will take time to deliver. ”
Tu Bowen gradually tasted the taste, the Xu family lives here, and they actually want to go outside to order furniture? Mother Lin's little abacus was suddenly exposed to everyone, and they could no longer hide it. This Xu Wan is really young, and she has so many thoughts on her mind, she can't help but glance at her. But seeing that she was respectful and polite, she was not sure for a moment whether she did it on purpose?
The Li family and the Yan family have lived in the back house for many years, but they are more sensitive to this matter than him. But today, the Lin family went to the Great Compassion Temple again, and he was not here, so he didn't even have an excuse, and his heart was going to be bad. Although they are dissatisfied with Yan's style, they are always in the same room, and if Yan's loses their dignity, they will be disgraced.
Old lady Tu had an angry face, snorted coldly, and said, "Hongyi, it turns out that our family doesn't even have these pieces of furniture?"
Tu Hongyi hurriedly said: "Father's anger must be negligent." ”
Wu Niangzi also persuaded: "Don't be angry, old lady, today is a good day!" reminded him that this was a family banquet that Xu Wanzhen had worked so hard to manage, and he should not be held accountable.
Old lady Tu had a bullish temper and said stubbornly: "Don't worry about it, I have to ask clearly." Zhen'er, can you tell me?"
Xu Wanzhen gave a dignified salute and replied: "It's not a big deal to go back to your great-grandfather. A few days ago, my granddaughter changed this place into a warm pavilion. Tian Xing's family went to the 'Changhong Courtyard' to find the steward to dial some furniture, and the steward said that it was inconvenient to open the warehouse in the rainy season these days. The granddaughter thought that it would be better to order furniture outside, which would be easier. It was the granddaughter who was not thoughtful, and asked her great-grandfather to punish her. ”
These words are calm and calm, but they make Tu Hongyi's face blush. What does it mean to be inconvenient to open a warehouse? It's not that Lin is in a quandary. Xu Wanzhen, as a junior, since the Lin family didn't give it, she found a way to solve it by herself. Now she is taking the responsibility on herself, but it is becoming more and more unbearable for the Lin family.
After hearing this, Old Lady Tu pointed at Tu Hongyi and said, "What is this called! Tomorrow morning, I will ask the Lin family to come to see me." ”
Tu Hongyi responded, and even with the Li family, the Yan family and others, they were all disgraced.
Wu Niangzi helped Mrs. Tu sit down on the top, and told another joke, and the atmosphere eased. Mrs. Tu raised his glass and said: "On a rainy day in the mountain valley in February, Banpo Fang Ming is fresh. May this year be smooth and peaceful!"
Everyone raised their glasses and drank before moving their chopsticks one by one.
All kinds of food made with toons are presented like flowing water. There are toon roasted tofu, toon fried shrimp, toon bud egg cake, tofu skin toon roll, toon mille-feuille, chicken shredded toon green wheat noodles and so on. The toon was already appetizing and spleen-invigorating, and cleared away heat and dampness, and the old lady Tu had a great appetite and added a bowl of rice.
The last dish is toon fish head, which takes only the most tender shoots of the toon and marinates them slightly with salt to make a toon sauce. Only the head of the fat bighead carp is taken, and after it is cooked, it is drizzled with toon sauce. The tenderness of the fish combined with the aroma of toon makes it mouth-watering.
This is a big dish, and it is served on a large plate with white porcelain begonia pattern from Ru kiln. The ladies serve the food from the youngest great-grandchildren. Tu Manfen and Tu Manzhen sat together, followed by Xu Wanzhen. Xu Wenyu and Tu Ruizhang played together for an afternoon, and now they are so good that they are inseparable, sitting next to each other.
Cui Sleeve saw her mother-in-law bring the last dish, and knew that the time had come, so she stepped forward to pour tea for Tu Manzhen for her.
When I retreated, I deliberately didn't know that my mother-in-law was serving, and when I touched my elbow, I only heard an "oops", and the head of the plate of toon fish was crooked, and the hot toon sauce flowed down. (To be continued.) )
