Several people changed the small sedan chair, Laiwang's daughter-in-law and the girls were followed by the sedan chair, Laiwang's daughter-in-law explained all the way, only to see that everywhere was ingenuity, strange flowers and plants were endless, Laiwang's daughter-in-law saw that Gu Baoying loved a line of maple trees on the side of the road very much, and the leaves were so red that they seemed to be dyed red with blood. She hurriedly said: "If Miss likes flowers and trees, there are two greenhouses in the garden, one is in Jifang Pavilion, and the flowers and fruit trees are all transported from the South Seas. There is also a place called "Mountain", which is full of orchids, and our young master has collected a lot of famous species over the years, you should really go and see it. ”

As soon as she said this, Gu Yu and Chunqian knew that something bad was going to happen, Gu Yu hurriedly gave her a look behind her back, but Laiwang's daughter-in-law didn't know why. Gu Yu secretly stomped her feet, this Shi mother and daughter were so greedy, they didn't want to take it for themselves when they saw it! But these orchids are the treasure of Young Master Han Oak. I brought it here all the way from Yangzhou. has been carefully guarded by a special person, and that orchid is a priceless treasure when it goes out. If Gu Baoying really takes a fancy to her, will he give it to her or not?

Where does Laiwang's daughter-in-law know the true face of Shi's mother and daughter? also said that it was the mother-in-law and sister-in-law of the eldest lady of his own family, and he should try his best to entertain him, lest he lose face to the eldest lady if he did not entertain him well. Along the way, it is really a series of mountains, winding paths, and what is even more wonderful is that there is a stream around the forest from time to time, and they also saw a sika deer drinking leisurely by the stream. The little deer heard the surprised sound of the Gu family's girls, was frightened, jumped over the stream, jumped and disappeared into the depths of the forest.

Laiwang's daughter-in-law said with a smile: "When the garden was built, our young master said that there was no need to be too deliberate, and it was better to be natural." Master Yu Zhenzi ordered people to release some small animals in the garden, and maybe you can see squirrels and cranes later. ”

Gu Baoying secretly clenched the handkerchief in her hand, and secretly indignant at the injustice of fate: This Sun family just has a few stinky money, just like that, Sun Zhanyi is just the daughter of a six-grade petty official, and she can have this garden that is not inferior to the royal garden, why should she!

After walking for an hour, she hadn't finished visiting a few scenic spots, and her daughter-in-law saw that the sun was almost overhead, so she said: "Miss Miss Lai should be tired, let's go to Xinghua Village in front of us to rest and rest?" ”

Shi Shi hadn't moved for many days, and although he had been sitting in a sedan chair at this time, he was also tired, and nodded in agreement when he heard the words.

After walking for a while, I saw a few clean grass houses in a bamboo hedge, and the courtyard was planted with yellow flowers all over the ground, which was really an idyllic scene.

Gu Baoying frowned and said: "This is not possible, obviously there are chrysanthemums here, why is it called "Xinghua Village"?" ”

Laiwang's daughter-in-law smiled: "Miss, it's not the right time for us to come, you see that the hundreds of apricot trees planted outside this courtyard are all apricot trees, and when spring comes, the apricot blossoms bloom!" The sky is full of red clouds! It's beautiful. ”

Gu Baoying pouted and said, "Raw and hard, where is the countryside here?" It is really nondescript to build these few thatched huts on the ground! ”

Laiwang's daughter-in-law didn't dare to refute, so she had to bow her head, but she was a little more wary of the eldest lady, who seemed to be beautiful and dustless.

Shi patted Gu Baoying's hand and said, "People's garden, what do you want you to talk about?" Let's take a look, it's not to live permanently, I like to see more, I don't like to wait and we'll leave. "I didn't dare to say a word when I was on the side.

Laiwang's daughter-in-law broke out in a cold sweat, and said continuously: "Madame, this scenery is set by the masters, I didn't expect it to be so detailed, Miss Gu Lan Xinhui is good, and I can see the traces of this chisel at a glance, I will report to the master tomorrow and give this yard to me." ”

Gu Baoying felt comfortable in her heart, and said with a smile: "That's not necessary, where can you give me a joke and give the built scenery?" Isn't that a waste? I thought that this was just a thatched cottage, but it was a bit abrupt, and if I added a look at the stone well. If there is a stone mill behind the house, then it will be a scene! ”

Laiwang's daughter-in-law clapped her hands and said, "Oops! Or Miss Smart! Every time I walk here, I feel that something is wrong, but I can't say it! In Miss's words, she immediately pointed out the problem of this yard! Oh, this young lady's heart and liver are really made of crystal glass, how can she be so smart and icy! It turned out that I heard that Miss Gu Jia, you are a famous talented woman in the capital, and I didn't feel anything, but today I was convinced! This sycophant shot Gu Baoying comfortably, and even Shi Shi smiled.

Laiwang's daughter-in-law smiled on her face, but she sighed secretly in her heart. In the past half a day, my eldest lady has been trembling, not daring to say more than half a sentence, and not daring to take more steps on the road, this is still on her own territory. It can be seen that there is nothing good to go to in the Gu family. Paying close attention to the actions and words of the mother and daughter of the Gu family, she became more and more worried about her own young lady, with such an arrogant mother-in-law and sister-in-law, how could the eldest lady live a comfortable life? How did she know what kind of life she was living in the Gu family?

Laiwang's daughter-in-law asked Shi Shidao: "There is no wind today, and the sun is good, why don't you put lunch in the pavilion over there?" You can enjoy chrysanthemums while eating. ”

Shi Shi was satisfied: "This is very good, so let's do it." ”

Dipping his clothes and personally serving Shi Shi into the room to change his clothes, he held water and cleaned his hands. He also brought a cup of ginseng tea, and waited for Shi to rest for a while before ordering the meal.

The meal is naturally the hospitality of the poor grandson's family, not to mention anything else, a single dish called "Buddha jumping over the wall", which is a collection of more than a dozen flavors of abalone belly shark fin and ham made by several processes, etc., stewed in a rice wine jar for several hours before it was obtained, Laiwang's daughter-in-law took the jar over, carefully removed the cotton paper sealed at the mouth of the altar, and a strong fragrance came out of the nose. Laiwang's daughter-in-law saw that Shi's who had always had a poor appetite was attracted, so she divided Shi's, Gu Baoying, and Dipping clothes into a small bowl one by one, and introduced: "The name of this dish is 'Buddha jumping over the wall', and it was made by someone at the behest of my second young master, so it's hard for him to think of it!" These materials alone toss the dead! Here, you need to use good abalone, shark fin, sea cucumber, fish maw, but also a whole chicken, a whole duck, sheep elbow, pig's trotter tip, duck gizzard, pigeon eggs, winter bamboo shoots, ham, hoof tendons, flower face mushrooms, pork belly, scallops, bone broth, etc., plus green onions, ginger, tangerine peel, cinnamon, rock sugar and other dressings, and an old wine jar, and then after many processes, this dish is stewed, the most nourishing. I heard that the in-laws and the lady were coming, and our lady ordered them to do it early in the morning, otherwise it would be too late to eat it fresh. Do you taste it? ”
