"Pretty, isn't it?" Song Qiaofang said with a smile: "Don't look at this small pair of paper-cuts, but it costs fifty taels of silver to buy it!" ”

It is said that it was the work of a grandmother who left the palace and returned to her hometown, and she only cut 50 sheets a year for her own livelihood, and there was no more. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"That's it, if you don't book in advance, you can't buy it, my mother especially likes the flowers she cuts are rich and rich, and she spends a hundred taels of silver every year to set a pair."

"It's this kind of business boundary, so I will take a frame and set it up, and our family will be finished with a fresh look for the New Year."

Lan Jiayin heard that Mrs. Song bought it every year, and hurriedly took Song Qiaofang's hand and begged, "Good sister, my grandmother is the rarest of this, since she has met her, no matter what she says this year, she must buy a pair to honor her old man." ”

"It's just that our family is new to the house, and I am not as familiar with your family, so my sister has to help my sister guide the way."

Who is Lan Jiayin's maternal grandmother?

Mrs. Chongbei!

Song Qiaofang had already known this, and couldn't help but think to herself, "If you can get in touch with Chongbei Houfu through paper-cutting.....

When she thought of this, where did she hesitate?

Agreed, "Okay, good, good, my sister will tell her mother when she gets home, and let her mother go to the house early." ”

"I just don't know, what kind of tricks my sister's grandmother likes?"

"It's good to make it clear, and it saves you from having to ask and ask back and forth when the time comes, and delay things."

"Spend a good full moon!" Lan Jiayin blurted out that she knew best what her grandmother liked, so she didn't hesitate at all.

Song Qiaofang nodded and said: "This cut out is also very beautiful, I saw it in General Guo's mansion last year, so let's cut this." ”

Lan Jiayin was overjoyed when she heard this, and took a closer look at the big red paper-cut on the wall, and thought, "If my grandmother is in her current status, do you want any good things?" ”

"If my granddaughter wants to be filial and want to make her old man happy, don't you have to come according to her preferences?"

"Alas, anyway, this year's New Year's gift already has one to her liking, but it's still half there, and she has to look for it with all her heart."

She came to Wanbao Pavilion today, just to give Song Qiaofang face, but after this incident, it reminded her to think of the Boxing Lily that would be sent back to the capital in a few months.

Thinking that this Wanbao Pavilion is not inferior to the Jincui Fulin in the capital, maybe there will be some good objects, thinking about it like this, Lan Jiayin suddenly has some interest in taking a good look.

The three young ladies, surrounded by the maid and the mother, came to the door of the private room called 'Hongbao' with a smile.

'Ruby' is located in the southeast corner of the third floor, as the largest private room on the third floor, it is very spacious and bright, facing the south street, three rooms wide, divided into three rooms by the mahogany wisp of hollow peony pattern.

In the middle of the hall, under the mahogany window with a light pink cicada wing veil, there is an Arhat couch with a lotus pattern and three screens.

In the hall, six official hat chairs are neatly placed on the left and right, the chairs are covered with bright forging chair covers embroidered with pink peonies, the ground is a bright blue jade floor, in the middle of the official hat chairs, there is a wool carpet full of flowers, the color is very bright and eye-catching, and the light pink lead pillows, chair covers, form a clear contrast.

The wisps of space between the east and the west were made into multi-treasure shelves of different shapes, on which were exquisitely placed, all kinds of dazzling jewelry, in the transparent crystal cover, exuding a fatal temptation.

Hu Qinghui pulled Lan Jiayin to enjoy it by the Duobao shelf, from time to time, he also pointed to the style he liked and shared it with his friends, Song Qiaofang also accompanied him, occasionally saying the last sentence, but it was just right, which had a good impact on the atmosphere between the three of them.

After walking around, Hu Qinghui and Lan Jiayin had a new understanding of Song Qiaofang, "This delicate and soft Miss Jiao still has something in her stomach." ”

People like to make friends with high-level people, Hu Qinghui and Lan Jiayin are the same, some time ago, the two of them seemed to be kind and pleasant to Song Qiaofang, but in fact, they were polite and distant in their bones.

With more contact and more things to see, this is a little bit of a change of attitude, a little bit of closeness, no longer the initial alienation.

This kind of feeling is not only unique to the two of them, Song Qiaofang also felt it, and she finally had feedback on her efforts, she couldn't help but smile and be overjoyed.

Mother Wang, who was in charge of the 'Hongbao' private room, had been standing beside her, she was about thirty-five or sixteen years old, with a round face and big eyes, wearing the azure and blue gowns of the mothers of Wanbao Pavilion, with just the right smile on her face.

Looking at the three young ladies after reading the Duobao Pavilion, she cleared her throat and introduced the details of her private room to the patron in an extremely kind tone, "If the ladies are tired, you can go to the east room to rest, the west room is a place to drink tea and chat, there is a table of eight immortals in the window, sitting there, the prosperity of South Street can be seen at a glance, and the horizon is quite broad." ”

"I wonder if the ladies are planning to look at the jewelry first? Or a tea break first? ”

Song Qiaofang could see that Lan Jiayin respected Hu Qinghui very much, so she took the initiative to ask Hu Qinghui, "Sister Hui, do you think our sisters are resting first and looking at the scenery of South Street?" Or do you want to look at the jewelry first? ”

Hu Qinghui glanced at Lan Jiayin and said with a smile: "Let's go out today, isn't it just for your sister to choose jewelry?" ”

"It's better to get down to business first, and you might as well wait to talk about it later."

While a few people were talking, the living room Luohan couch and the left-hand official hat chair on the desk, have been placed tea snacks, snacks are packed in the pastel flower type of delicate plates, and the tea is with the best powder porcelain white plum tea set, I have to say, Wanbao Pavilion is not only a large façade, high momentum, just look at this thoughtfulness to the guests, but also thoughtful and proper tight.

Song Qiaofang saw Hu and Lan with a smile on her face, knowing that the high-quality dim sum tea she ordered was in line with the thoughts of these two hobbies.

On the grounds that he was the host, Hu and Lan were guests, he insisted that Lan Jiayin and the two of them sit in the main seat, and he sat on the first official hat chair on the left.

Lan Jiayin's family worked hard to get on the road, and when they arrived in Pingjing City, they were busy dealing with it everywhere, not only the master and the young lady had never gone out to hang out, but most of the maids had also never been loose.

Looking at the eyes of these people in Jinzhu Cuihuan, who have been running west from time to time, how can Lan Jiayin not understand that these henchmen want to see fresh thoughts?

Just let people go, she said with a smile, "Look at the two of you who are in a hurry, people are still standing here, and their hearts are running to the street outside, right?!" ”

"According to me, you don't have to wait here, if you want to go in and see the scenery, just go, have a good loose day, and I will give you a holiday."

As soon as these words came out, even the maid and her mother were not unhappy, and the Jinzhu had already curtsied and saluted, holding hands to go to the west, but Cuihuan and the others were still looking at their own young lady, and they didn't move for a long time, but the hope in their eyes was funny.

Hu Qinghui waved his hand and chuckled: "What Qin Qing said, that's what I said, you can go by yourself, you don't need to serve here." ”

Seeing this, Mother Wang instructed the maid next to her to give Xi Cijian a table of refreshments, and praised it from the bottom of her heart: "Miss Lan, Miss Hu is such a generous master, concubines are rare, and all sisters are blessed people." ”

Lan Jiayin's eyes turned when she heard this, swept over Wang's mother, and said secretly: "Concubine? I don't know what this person is? ”

The maids had already rushed into the western room, and the older Mother Chen and Mother Cai did not follow, they were worried that they would leave, and no one would serve their young lady, so they looked a little hesitant.

Seeing this, Lan Jiayin couldn't help but shake her head, stretched out her hand and shook her hands from side to side, "Mother Cai, I have hands, I can get snacks if I want to, and I can pour tea by myself if I want to, if you don't go in, Mother Chen is embarrassed to go." ”

In the end, the two mothers were thrown in.

"Sister Ling, you go to serve Sister Hui, Sister Ling, you go to serve Sister Yin." Song Qiaofang saw that there was no one waiting for Lan Jiayin and the others, and she was also worried that the maids of Wanbao Pavilion were not serving carefully, so she ordered with a smile, "Mother Zeng, you go in and explain to Mother Cai, explain to them, otherwise it won't be interesting to just watch the excitement." ”

The people around her have been here countless times, and they are tired of seeing the scenery outside, so this will be just the right time to serve with peace of mind.

"I said Sister Fang, how do you distinguish between Sister Ling and Sister Ling on weekdays?" Lan Jiayin looked at the maid of Song Qiaofang's twin sisters, very curious.

The two of them wore the same pink jackets, combed the same sideburns, wore the same jewelry, and looked exactly the same, and it was really hard to tell who was who.

Song Qiaofang deliberately sold a pass, "Sister Yin, there are actually a few small differences between the two sisters, you might as well take a closer look and see if you can find out?" ”

When Lan Jiayin heard this, she began to look at the pair of sisters standing in front of her very seriously.

But she hasn't seen any clues here, Hu Qinghui has already clapped her hands and laughed: "Haha, it turns out that one of the earrings is a drop of oil, the other is a ginkgo biloba, and the rings on their hands, although they are all peony patterns, but one flower heart is inlaid with tourmaline, and the other flower heart is inlaid with emeralds." ”

Song Qiaofang couldn't help but be surprised when she saw that Hu Qinghui could see the difference between Sister Ling and Sister Ling so quickly, "This person's observation is really amazing, no wonder the mother and daughter in the Lan family value her so much." ”

Then he smiled and nodded, "Sister Hui is really accurate, that's right, the difference between the two sisters today is this." ”

"Oh, a drop of oil earrings is Sister Ling, and ginkgo biloba earrings are Sister Ling."

Lan Jiayin pouted, and said dissatisfiedly, "Wanwan, you know that I am not as careful as you, and you don't wait for me, look, compared to you, I am simply blind." ”

Hu Qinghui and Song Qiaofang heard her complain like this, they both covered their lips and chuckled, Hu Qinghui softly comforted her friend: "Okay, at most next time I see the two of them, I'll let you see it first, okay?" ”

Lan Jiayin's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she asked Song Qiaofang, "Sister Fang, did you deliberately let the two sisters be like this?" ”

Song Qiaofang shook the double-sided Suzhou embroidered beauty lotus fan in her hand for a while, and said, "Yes, in this way, at least I have something to do every morning." ”

"Uh, how boring do you have to be?!" Lan Jiayin secretly poked and poked in her heart.

Mother Wang saw the time when the three young ladies were laughing, and stepped forward with a smile and curtsied, "The three young ladies, the concubines have asked the maids to prepare the latest styles of jewelry this month, you see, let's read the album first?" Or do you just look at the ornaments? ”

"Or the young ladies, you have already decided what you want to buy, you can tell the concubine the name of the jewelry, the pattern you want, and the gemstone you like, so that after screening, the things you get will be more satisfying."

"Yo, you're well prepared here." Lan Jiayin praised it, and turned to ask Song Qiaofang, "Sister Fang, you haven't told us yet, what is the texture of the clothes you wear to the banquet, what style, what are the advantages of embroidery?" ”

"I don't know anything, my eyes are black, and Wanwan and I don't know what to choose."

"I was careless." Song Qiaofang said quite embarrassedly, "My mother helped me choose two sets of clothes, one is a pink purple yarn embroidered with begonia flowers, with a narcissus skirt of the same color, the skirt is decorated with pearls, and the other is the half arm of the white magnolia embroidered with a bow at the neckline, with a long skirt of birds depicting orchids. ”

"Our family has always been to buy clothes and jewelry at the end of the season, and now it happens to be the middle of the season, the jewelry that my mother bought for me last time, I have worn it out several times, and the sisters who are good have seen it, this is the first time your family has a banquet, and I am embarrassed to wear the old one?"

"My mother originally said that she would give me a few things in her collection to wear first, but I don't know why, I suddenly changed my mind and asked me to come out and buy a new one myself.

So that's the case, no wonder it's been two days before the banquet, so I hurriedly came to buy jewelry, but there is a hidden secret, it seems that Song Qiaofang doesn't just want to show off the closeness of Song Mansion and Lan Mansion.

Song Fucheng was born in a scholarly family, and married the daughter of everyone, and has been an official for more than 20 years, and there are more people in the family than Lan Mingdong.

The three sons and five daughters under the knees, except for the eldest son and the youngest daughter, are all concubines, and they have not yet married, that is, Song Qiaofang, the sixth miss, the fifth miss who is a month older than her, the seventh son who is twelve years old, and the eighth miss who is the same year as the seventh son.

In today's Song Mansion, there are five daughters-in-law and unmarried ladies who have married in, and these people are staring at one by one, for fear that whoever will take advantage of them will suffer a loss.

In such a complicated family, it can be said for sure that everything must have rules, and the housewife of the house does not say that the husband is selfless, at least she must be able to get by.

Think about it, if Mrs. Song is too partial to her children, then a big hat that is unfair will be uneasy.
