Mama Chen looked at the cold scene, and hurriedly gave Jasper standing next to the floor cover a look, and Jasper took people to set up breakfast at the banquet, and the old lady finished breakfast under the service of her three daughters-in-law before sitting down again.

Biyu took the maid to serve tea, and the eldest lady took the lead and said, "The tea here is pure and thick." ”
The second wife took a sip and pouted, I don't know how she drank last year's old tea with a pure and thick taste, and a little tea silver had to be cut off.
The fourth lady only put the teacup close to her mouth and put it down, this tea was distributed to her subordinates at her mother's house, "In a few days, this pre-rain tea will be on the market, and there will be new tea to change the taste." ”
The eldest lady paused with her hand flicking the lid of the cup, glanced at the old lady, and then said: "This tea before the rain is priceless, I heard my lord say that it will be set half a year in advance, and last year the lord set the tea was late, only to some Mao Feng and Tieguanyin, and then wait a while, we will set more Pu'er, and drink it in the season." ”
The fourth lady smiled and said: "Oh, then this year's tea is more fixed, sister-in-law, this Mao Feng is from Huanggong Mountain?" Tieguanyin is from Anxi? If you want to set black tea, it's best to go to Dingwuyan. ”
As soon as these words fell, the eldest lady's face turned red and white, white and red, and she said after a while: "This is all the old man's contact outside, how do I know where Maofeng is Huanggong Mountain, and whether Tieguanyin is from Anxi?" Besides, the black tea of Wuyan is twice as expensive as the black tea of Lanshui, and we have so many mouths to chew and use, how can we afford such good tea. Besides, now that the war has not subsided, prices are rising sharply year by year, and seeing that most of the rent collected last year has been used, it is just spring, how can you spend it indiscriminately? You can't be like this, and you can't eat or wear for tea, right? ”
The fourth lady laughed slowly, she didn't know Huanggongshan and Anxi, but she knew that Wuyan's black tea was much more expensive than Lanshui's, was this big lady smart herself, or did she treat everyone else as a fool.
"Sister-in-law, this Huanggong Mountain, Anxi, Wuyan and Lanshui are all in the south, not far from us. Besides, now that the prince's army has gone to Yanzhong, it is a time when the freight between the north and the south is not connected, and the tea cannot be sold at a low price. Besides, we have a lot of land, last year's wind and rain were smooth, and the price of food was high, if we can't eat first-class quality tea this year, then I'm afraid that we can't count on the days of my sister-in-law's family. ”
After speaking, he glanced at the old lady who didn't move, and added another fire, "Father loves Wuyan the most when he drinks black tea, there was a war there last year, and the house didn't buy it, and my father went to the prefect's house as a guest and was greedy once, and said a mouthful in the face of the fourth master of my family, and finally tired of the fourth master asked my mother-in-law to send some over." Wu Yan has settled down this year, if he can't buy it, how can his sister-in-law ask his eldest brother to pay to his father? ”
The eldest lady looked at the fourth lady's smiling expression, and was so angry that she bit her teeth, she could hear it, the first-class tea was produced in the south, and she didn't buy it last year, and she could still find an excuse to say that it was a war, but the fourth wife's mother's house in the northern capital could buy good tea from the south, and this was not a problem of war.
"Listening to the words of the four brothers and sisters, I have seen it for a long time, I used to be almost the same as tea, but I didn't expect there to be such a big difference, the four brothers and sisters are worthy of family history."
The fourth lady raised her eyebrows, "This person is divided into three, six, nine and so on, and the same is true for everything in the world, and they all have to be on the right side one by one." Second sister-in-law, are you right about what you said? ”
The second wife was stunned for a moment, and then her mouth grinned widely, "That's exactly the reason, otherwise they would all be mixed together and grab their eyebrows and noses, wouldn't it be a mess, the big families of the high-ranking families all go to eat the black tea of Lanshui, and the black tea of Wuyan should not let the mud legs who don't understand anything be trampled up." ”
As soon as these words came out, the surroundings were so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard, the old lady's maiden family was a big landlord on the outskirts of Qinghe City, and Master Zhang was the eldest brother of the old lady and the father of the eldest lady.
The second lady swallowed her saliva, timidly looked at the old lady sitting on it, a pair of old lady's dark eyes, frightened legs trembling, if it weren't for the fact that there was still a trace of clarity in her heart, she would just kneel on the ground.
The fourth lady sighed heavily in her heart, she really lifted a stone to hit her own feet, why did she ask her so much? Doesn't she have to clean up this mess herself?
"The second sister-in-law is not rough, what kind of identity should be what kind of rules and regulations, although my father has left his job, and our family has also left the capital, but how to say that it is also a large family in Qinghe City, compared to when I was in the capital, I should not pay more attention to it to be worthy of the identity of my father? Otherwise, what if others think that we were kicked out of the capital in embarrassment?
We don't talk about other people's families, that is, my uncle's house, last year, when Brother Yun was one year old, the whole lacquer family that should be used for the scene, the colorful flower and bird pattern plate used when eating, and the pastel butterfly pattern bowl are all new styles in the Dingzhen private kiln, and a set in my room is still used by my father and brother at the end of last year when they gave New Year's gifts. ”
The second wife's eyes lit up, and she said hurriedly: "Exactly, I also saw a wrong golden moire flat bell at my aunt's place, which is really rare!" ”
The old lady glanced at the second wife, and then said to the fourth wife with a smile: "In the past few years, it has been good, and in the war period, your uncle's family has made a lot of money. ”
The fourth wife's eyes flashed, "Then it's no wonder, I look at the granddaughters of my uncle's family, they don't behave like the daughters of small families and small families, if they put down the capital, they can also get by." ”
Looking at the old lady's smiling eyes, she sighed, "I really don't know if I don't go out, Brother Yun was one year old last year, and my uncle's family didn't make any mistakes, Wu Niang sat there with her four younger sisters, that well-behaved and energetic, it was really enviable." It's like our family, on such an important day as my father's 60th birthday, Wan'er was pushed down by my sister and stomped her head for a piece of clothing, which is so embarrassing to me, I don't know how to walk around my relatives' houses in the future. ”
The old lady smiled a little proudly, after all, the four daughters-in-law have a lot of property, and she has been pressing the other three concubines in the retort mansion, and now her mother's family can have something to praise her, and the old lady is still very pleased. Slowly opened his mouth to persuade: "Wu Niang, they are older, and they have read some books with their husband, so they are naturally more sensible." ”
The fourth wife's eyes rolled, "I see, think about it, when I was in the capital in the past, Sister Yuan'er and the three sisters also asked Mr. to learn words at home, but now when I go back to my hometown, Wan'er is seven years old and still doesn't recognize a few words." ”
