Chapter 113: Gifts are exchanged
Mrs. Yi, who put her mind down and put it into her stomach properly, can be regarded as having made up her mind, and seriously took out her skills as a director of the house, and did things with peace of mind, holding her little girl, and coming in from the main courtyard gate of Mu Mansion, just to see if there is anything missing here. When I saw that the incense in the censer had not yet burned out, and the oil lamp was lit, I was a little happy.
Although the Mu Mansion is big, it is actually just a three-entry courtyard, and it is not enough to spread it out sincerely, this is not that the original selling price of the Guan family is too high, now, even if it is only Xia Qing A little woman is the master, there should be, in fact, it is not the same, reluctantly, this front yard is actually the guest house, Mrs. Yi took a closer look at the things prepared in this house, and nodded, this girl's housekeeper mother is a capable person. The ability of this big housekeeper is not weak, and this warm house banquet can be done.
"Tomorrow, there will always be four boys running errands in this yard, and four girls serving tea!"
"Yes, ma'am!" the butler nodded and made a note of it!
Turning to the main courtyard, Xia Qing led the way in front of her, pointed to the east wing and said with a smile:
"Auntie, this room is specially cleaned up and left for the aunt to rest!
Two days ago, Mama Mu told Xia Qing that she had laid out the east wing of the main courtyard for Mrs. Yi to rest! At this time, she naturally had to report it to this aunt first! Mrs. Yi took a look, and saw that in the east wing, there were neat colors such as cushions, scarves, and pillows, and the places where the girl rested were prepared. She was forced to come here to be the host, in fact, she felt like being sent to the door as a housekeeper mother, and she felt a little aggrieved in her heart, seeing Xia Qing doing it like this, treating herself as her own aunt, and leaving a house for herself in the main courtyard to rest, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and now those sisters won't laugh at themselves. Really, I didn't see one of my elders rushing to help a junior. There's not such a big affection ahead.
"What kind of incense does Auntie like, I'll smoke it for Auntie tonight!" Xia Qing saw that this aunt's face was much softener, and she naturally breathed a sigh of relief, her core was not much smaller than this aunt. Suddenly let herself help a little girl to settle down or something, Xia Qing put her heart to heart, and put it on herself, it must be uncomfortable, but fortunately, her shell is small now. Pretending to be a little girl with a hard top is really more soothing. Xia Qing didn't know why, but for this aunt who was like her mother in the future, a cordiality rose in her heart, and she couldn't help but want to be good to her and make her feel comfortable.
"That's good, what kind of incense is there!" Mrs. Yi smiled and patted Xia Qing's hand, and continued to walk forward, not taking a closer look at her banquet room, but a room. Pu Yasi was optimistic at a glance, what could it be worse? The house was arranged in the east wing, not high or low, very appropriate!
And Mama inquired about it from the girl next to Mrs. Yi and liked the fragrance of roses. Just make the decision and keep it in mind. The incense was smoked that night. The spices of the space are very complete and of good quality, and after that, this east wing room has been smoked with this incense, which is very much liked by Aunt Yi. Who wouldn't want to be respected?
Mrs. Yi looked all the way and felt that there was nothing bad. The whole yard is very well organized. Don't worry too much about yourself, it seems that this girl should come from a big family in the south, and I can't help but breathe a sigh of relief! I'm not a fairy, and with a wave of my sleeves, I can change a country girl's stinginess into the style of a family's daughter.
"How's tomorrow's meal going?"
It's all complete. Naturally, we have to look at the key projects of the conservatory banquet, and when we arrived at the kitchen in the front yard, I saw that several cooks had already fried what should be fried, what should be boiled, and what should be steamed was steaming in the upper drawer, a picture of the heat in full swing. Mrs. Yi took the recipe she had prepared. After taking a closer look, I finally felt that there were fewer big dishes!
"Now the noble family, it is popular to eat the barbecue meat of the north, what is the sheep, the whole roast, insert a short knife to go to the table, now it seems that our dishes are too exquisite, plus a few northern dishes to be considered complete!"
"Auntie's nephew knows, please mention it, what dishes to add, the big housekeeper has arranged to do it!"
"Buy two sheep, roast the whole sheep! The big-tailed fish, as well as the fat pheasant or something, can be added, it is best to use the roasted, mare's milk wine should also be prepared, recently the Beijing has been popular with this northern taste of the dish, if you don't have these two, I'm afraid of life! I thought we couldn't afford to invite guests."
"Okay!" There are a lot of sheep in the space, and I have eaten a lot of roasted whole sheep myself, so I can learn from it. Xia Qing nodded to indicate that she understood, and the big housekeeper on the side also said that he had received the order and would do it immediately, and the order would be stopped, and Mrs. Yi liked it very much.
"My mother's family has only sent a lot of mare's milk wine, and the taste is not bad, I will have someone deliver it next night, so don't buy it!"
"Thank you, Auntie!" Xia Qing put herself in the right position, and the elders couldn't say goodbye!
Mrs. Yi looked around, and she was concerned about what kind of tea was used for the tea served to the guests. looked at it, and there was nothing wrong with it, so he clapped his hands and said:
"There's nothing missing, then I'm relieved, I'll go back, and come over early tomorrow morning!"
"Thank you, Auntie, I want to ask my aunt to check for me, I wonder if it will be rude for me to wear this dress tomorrow?"
You must know that in the early days of the Jin Dynasty, the female dependents of the family were the same as the official ladies, and there were some differences in dress, if they were overstepping the level of dressing, they would tire the men who worked outside, the light ones would make a joke, and the heavy ones would also involve the elders to be impeached by the officials, Xia Qing really didn't understand the twists and turns in the meantime, although her cheap godfather had become ancient, but these uncles were still involved, and if they couldn't make trouble, they naturally didn't want to make trouble, and at this time, they naturally had to ask someone who knew how to do it. Mrs. Yi saw that the clothes were mentioned, so she took a closer look at Xia Qing's outfit, which was really outstanding.
Today, in order to earn a good impression in front of Aunt Yi, Mama is carefully dressed up for Xia Qing, at this time she combed two small heads, inserted a white jade inlaid tourmaline hairpin, the hairpin head is flat, the two sides are symmetrical, the red, sapphire, tourmaline is the flower, the emerald is the flower and leaf inlaid with the flower and grass pattern, and the top of the hairpin is inlaid with a large tourmaline flower. I was still young and didn't use earrings. Only two safflower stud earrings are bolted. The body is a pale pastel embroidered peony woven gold cotton robe, the placket, collar and cuffs of the robe are trimmed with inlay, rolling, embroidery and other techniques, covered with a placket silver and red makeup satin vest, the delicate colored teeth on the top are full of six-tenths of the whole vest, and the skirt edge covered on the instep is correspondingly interesting. (To be continued.) )
