Chapter 403: Begging for Cows
"My husband and mother-in-law are good to me."
Zhang Ying lowered her head and smiled, showing a little happiness on her face.
"Yes." Li Luan'er nodded: "I also heard that your family is harmonious, and you are united in your heart, and you can be regarded as seeking benevolence." ”
Zhang Ying knew that Li Luan'er was sarcastic about her, so she responded with a forced smile, and said, "In addition to congratulating you this time, I want to ask you for one more thing." ”
"Ask me for something?" Li Luan'er immediately showed a surprised expression: "Do you still have something to ask me?" I really can't think of it. ”
Zhang Ying gritted her teeth, her fingers were about to pinch into the flesh: "I heard that you have a secret recipe for having children here, so I want to ask for a copy, I don't know if you are happy to give it?" ”
She said this, she had already made up her mind that she had to come to the secret recipe for asking for a child, if Li Luan'er didn't give it, she couldn't be humiliated in vain, she would have to talk about it well, and it would also ruin her reputation.
But where did Zhang Ying think that Li Luan'er nodded happily when she heard her words: "It turns out that this is the matter, it's really easy to do, some time ago, there were many people who didn't ask for a prescription, I asked someone to copy a lot of copies, it just so happens that I still have a surplus on hand, even if you want me, I am willing to take advantage of the beauty of others, Ruizhu, go and get a prescription for Grandma Cui Shao." ”
Ruizhu, the big girl behind Li Luan'er, said yes and went out, and Shaoqing took out a piece of paper and handed it to Zhang Ying.
Zhang Ying hurriedly took it and put it away carefully, even if she got what she wanted, Zhang Ying was not happy to be ridiculed by Li Luan'er in the Yan family, so she got up and said goodbye.
She walked on the front foot, and Li Luan'er pulled down her face on the back foot: "Who is on duty in the concierge today?" There are no rules at all, Ruizhu, you go and talk to Steward Zhou, tell them to go to the stable, change a few honest and dead-eyed people on the gatehouse, at least you have to say what the master says, you can't make your own decisions, otherwise let Zhang Ying come in today, and let a bandit in tomorrow, we will all be in danger. ”
Rui Zhu responded, feeling a pity for the porters, but he also knew that they were wrong in advance, so they ended up where they are now, and he was secretly vigilant that he must act according to the master's instructions in the future, and he must not rely on the master's feelings to make his own decisions.
A few porters never thought that they would lose their errands because they sympathized with the Cui family's wife, and the fat difference on the good concierge was gone, and they went to the stable and other dirty and tired places where there was no oil and water, which really made them angry, naturally, they didn't dare to hate Li Luan'er, but they hated Zhang Ying thoroughly in their hearts.
But it was said that Li Luan'er would go back to the house to accompany Gu Xin to tease the child after the order, and after gossiping for a while, Gu Xin remembered something and whispered: "Sister Luan, a few days ago, the things on my shop were sent to the palace, and when the steward came back, he only said that a noble person in the palace ordered a few sets of clothes from my family's ready-to-wear shop. ”
Li Luan'er raised her eyebrows: "What's this, it's just a few clothes that are worth your fuss." ”
Gu Xin lowered his voice again: "This is not ordinary clothes, Sister Luan, what kind of work can't be done in the palace, and the nobles will order it in the shop outside?" People ordered clothes that were inconspicuous, and for fear of making people laugh at her in the palace, they took the patterns and made them outside. ”
"Oh?" Li Luan'er was a little funny when she heard it, she understood the meaning of Gu Xin's words very well, that is, in order to compete for favor, some people in the palace actually made those very interesting clothes that only singers and prostitutes wore on the stage.
Gu Xinjue is this thing unusual, but Li Luan'er feels sparse and ordinary, I haven't seen anything in modern times, and the erotic underwear is all stabbed and sold, what else is there to be ashamed of, it's just a slightly revealing dress, and it's all about making such a fuss.
"It's nothing, what's wrong in the palace? Those beauties are trying to compete for favor, and today's officials are the most fun-loving and noisy, and some people naturally have to make a little different in order to cater to the official family. Li Luan'er didn't care much, and said with a smile.
Gu Xin shook his head, took out a piece of paper and handed it to Li Luan'er: "This is my sister who asked someone to draw it secretly." ”
Li Luan'er took it and looked at it a few times, handed the paper to Gu Xin again, and stretched out her hand to touch her forehead: "In vain, you are still the eldest lady of the Gu family, why don't you have any knowledge at all?" ”
"What?" Gu Xin was a little puzzled.
Li Luan'er smiled and pointed to the painting on the paper: "This dress is not underwear, but it is worn outside, but it is not the clothes of our Dayong Dynasty, it is the clothing of Fanbang." ”
"Fanbang?" Gu Xin took it left and right and looked around, but he still couldn't remember which country's clothes it was.
Li Luan'er had no choice but to point her out: "This is what people often say about the women's clothing of Tianzhu Kingdom, but it is very exotic." ”
"Oh my God!" Gu Xin covered his mouth in surprise, and only said after a long time: "This, this is actually Tianzhu's clothes?" That's the Buddha country, why are you dressed so shamelessly, Sister Luan, you didn't lie to me, did you? ”
Li Luan'er almost wanted to roll her eyes: "As for me, if you don't believe it, go back and ask your mother, or ask your brother." ”
Seeing that Li Luan'er was a little annoyed, Gu Xin hurriedly smiled and apologized: "I didn't believe my sister's words, I was just surprised for a while." ”
Li Luan'er sighed helplessly: "You, forget it, let me tell you, think about the statues of the Buddha Guanyin in the temple, they wear very few clothes, do you see if they are a little similar to the clothes in the painting?" ”
Gu Xin looked left and right and thought for a long time before he suddenly realized: "I said how can this dress feel so familiar, but it turns out to be a little the same as the style of the clothes on the Bodhisattva, so, I really believe it." ”
Speaking of this, Gu Xin became even more curious: "It's just, what are the nobles in the palace used to make such clothes?" There are no concubines from Tianzhu in the palace. ”
Gu Xin's words reminded Li Luan'er, she pursed her lips and thought for a while before she understood, but she didn't want to talk to Gu Xin thoroughly, and talked to Gu Xin for a while, seeing that it was not too early, Li Luan'er sent Gu Xin away.
But it turned out that Li Luan'er remembered something, she remembered that the official's birthday was coming, and the nobles in this palace were afraid that they would order such clothes for the official's birthday, as for how to use it, Li Luan'er thought that there were no more than two points, one was to wear such clothes to dance a Tianzhu dance for the official, and second, to pretend to be a bodhisattva or something to congratulate the official.
These two points look quite novel, according to the character of the official family, if there is really a beauty who does this, maybe it can really arouse the interest of the official family.
Li Luan'er thought for a while, and probably felt that her idea was very reasonable, so she wrote a letter and asked someone to take it into the palace.
The letter took Li Luan'er away and no longer paid attention to this matter, she is now busy all day, the four boys are getting older than a day, but they are becoming more and more naughty, although there is a nurse to help take care of the child, but Li Luaner still feels that she has to get along with the child in person in order to cultivate the relationship between mother and child, so she takes out a lot of time every day to take care of the child.
Li Luan'er was busy with the children, and there was a heavy snowfall in winter, and she was busy settling down the households, and she didn't participate in any social activities for a long time, and when the spring came, I don't know how many people crowded to her door to send heavy gifts to thank her, Li Luan'er called a number of people who were very startled, but it turned out that half of the ladies who came to congratulate her on the day of the full moon were pregnant, and these gifts were sent to thank Li Luan'er.
Li Luan'er really didn't understand, but she said that some common sense problems that modern people are familiar with have helped those noble ladies so much, she was surprised and happy at the same time, these people are naturally grateful to her when they are pregnant, she can take the opportunity to make a few friends with similar temperaments, and she can also ask someone to help her in the future, which can be regarded as helping Yan Chengyue expand her contacts.
There were a few rains in the spring, and the land was soaked, and the farmers were busy planting in the spring, looking at the fertile land that had been ploughed, thinking that this year's wind and rain would be good, and that it would be a good harvest in the autumn, and everyone had more smiles on their faces.
Yan family Zhuangzi and Li family Zhuangzi on the Zhuang family because of the owner's help, but they all survived, to this day to repay the owner's life-saving gift of food, is full of energy, not a few days on the Zhuangzi on the land has been planted with all kinds of grain, Li Luan'er nest for a winter, to the spring the child is also obviously big, then take the child to the Zhuangzi to live for a few days, every day to look at the farmers farming, and look at the smoke of the peach and plum blossoms actually bloom, a rare leisure time brings a rare good mood.
It's just that her good mood didn't last long, and she only lived in Zhuangzi for a few days, and the Lin family sent someone to spread the word in the old mansion, saying that Shi Lan was pregnant, and she wanted to borrow a few medicine cows that Mrs. Jin specially raised for Li Luan'er for some time.
At that time, Li Luan'er was playing in the peach blossom forest with four boys, and when she heard the announcement, her good mood was gone, she frowned and handed the child to the nurse, got up and said to the girl who came to pass the word: "You go back first, leave this matter to me, and I will tell my wife to go." ”
The girl didn't dare to disobey Li Luan'er's order, so she had to go back first.
Li Luan'er looked at the girl's back and sneered, cleaned up the grass leaves and petals on her body, and took the nurse and the children to take the car home.
On the way, Li Luan'er met Yan Chengyue, who came to Zhuangzi to pick her up, and the two parties formed a team, and the nurses took the child to the carriage next to them with great eyes, leaving the space for a small couple.
When Yan Chengyue got into the carriage, Li Luan'er asked a few words and spoke directly: "My medicine cow was specially raised by my wife to raise a fetus with me, and now our children are all drinking the milk of the medicine cow, and they haven't pulled it for a day in the morning and evening, if they suddenly stop drinking, I'm afraid that the children's bodies won't be able to stand it." ”
Yan Chengyue frowned when he heard this: "What do you mean by this?" Although the cow has to eat precious medicinal herbs every day, our family can't afford to raise it, why do you say such frustrating words? ”
Li Luan'er sighed: "Shi is pregnant, Mrs. asked us to lend the medicine cow to Shi, saying that it is borrowed, I am afraid that there is a loan and no return, and besides, Shi's pregnancy is ten months, and when she gives birth to a child, our baby is all older, and I think that my wife still wants to ask the Chengyue family boy to drink medicinal milk, our son is afraid that he will not be able to drink it from now on." ”
Yan Chengyue's face was a little cold at first, and then he was a little more angry: "Don't worry, no one will give this medicine cow, our son is used to drinking the milk produced by this cow, so he naturally has to drink it all the time, Chengxin's daughter-in-law is also pregnant, we can't help but say, I think we will pay for another cow to send to Chengxin's daughter-in-law, which is also a piece of our heart. ”R1152
