"A new errand for you.;" Gu Yun lifted the corners of his robe and sat down in the main seat of the hall.

"Third Young Master, please speak." Bai Qiao followed to the table, picked up the teapot on the table, and poured a cup of herbal tea for the third young master.

"The second lady wants to borrow it from you."

"How do you use it?"

"Before the death day arrives, it is not considered to be officially filial piety, and the twenty-seven months of the people are a civil matter."

"Uh, could it be that the second lady has something to attend to the banquet of the female dependents? I heard that she married from out of town and has blood relatives in the capital? ”

"Look at you, I'll just say a word, you take so much!"

"It's a servant who is talkative, please forgive the third young master." Bai Ko hurriedly bowed his head and behaved.

"How do you know it's a relative, though? Guess? ”

"If it's a friend, if it's a mutually considerate friend, you won't know that the other party's filial piety is inconvenient and deliberately give an invitation that is difficult to refuse, right? It's possible for relatives, such as something that is only for female dependents......"

The more Bai Ko spoke, the quieter she became, and Gu Yun watched as she had a sudden expression of realization on her face.

"An important event attended by the female relatives of relatives, and the girls' ceremony! It's not a few days before the death day, is the second lady planning to take the two young ladies out together? ”

After the establishment of the new dynasty, her ancestors have uncles and brothers in the capital for several generations, and the sisters in the clan are also married to the big clan in Beijing, and now she has a brother in the Hanlin Academy, and the daughter of the family is his youngest child. As an aunt, I should have dressed up to attend, but the will of the lord was not given, and everyone had to live a tight life. Gu Yun explained the antecedents and tactfully answered Bai Ko's question.

Bai Ko heard it very clearly.

"Oh, the second lady and the young ladies are not going, what is the matter with the maid?"

"The celebratory gifts have already been prepared, but the third lady wants to back up the refreshments temporarily, knowing that you are good at cooking and have a lot of tricks, I will borrow you for it, and if you do well, you will be rewarded."

"For the ladies or for the ladies? Do you want everyone to have a share? Or is it only for the host's house? ”

"You're thinking too much, let's make a little bit for them first."

"Okay,, think about it."

"The action must be fast, the ceremony on the ninth day of the fifth month, the gift will be sent in the morning."

"In such a hurry?" Bai Ko took a deep breath, didn't dare to slander the second lady and the young lady's efficiency, and saluted the third young master and said goodbye, "Son, let's go back to the house and think about it." ”

"It's so late today, you just want to come up and don't have time for you to try it, why don't you tell me first, what were you three talking about before?"

"Third Young Master, aren't you reading tonight?"

"Take a break and get out of the way, do you want to make up a story?"

"No, the background check is very good, the young man named Zhao Qi and his family seem to be honest and responsible, so they are talking about whether to ask the other party to come out to meet, drink tea, and chat."

"The girls who are waiting in the back house are all called young ladies in the small households, and they are all delicate, and they are troublesome to die when they go out."

"Third Young Master, it is a very important step for the two sides to look at each other, and it cannot be saved."

"How do I think that every time you make a reasonable appearance, you have already started to calculate."

"Not really! The servant has a sincere heart, and the sun and the moon can be seen! The maid really hopes that the sisters will live a happy life! ”

"Then tell me, how do you take them out to meet men?"

"When the young master takes the girl out, the most common thing is to play."

"It's such a hot day?"

"There's a very common and simple way to do it, incense. There are temples in many squares, find a day, pick a temple between the two places in the middle of our Tianshui Fang, good men and women are incense, who can see that one of the men and women is here to see each other? ”

"You didn't bluff me? Is this a common approach? ”

"Commonly, the maid swears by the duck pond. If the matchmaker matches people from other places, they do this, parents and children meet secretly among pilgrims, and come out to rest after the incense, which is the time to talk to each other. Therefore, in the place where pilgrims gather to rest, if you see adults and children sitting together, they are either real relatives or under the arrangement of the matchmaker. ”

"What's Meilun's opinion? Do you think about that one? ”

"Judging from the investigation, it's good, if it weren't for the young man's unlucky energy, he would have been a baby and his father at his age, and it would be Sister Meilun's turn to pick it up, so her decision was to look at each other."

"In other words, I have to do a show and take them to the temple?"

"Third young master, it's too late to do it again after the official filial piety, just to see if the man's family is reasonable. The conclusion of the investigation is very clear that their family wants to marry Sister Meilun, that is, they want to make friends with our Guogong Mansion through the identity of Sister Meilun's good maidservant, and if there is a chance in the future, the young man named Zhao Qi can be an errand for the house. ”

Bai Ko knew that everyone in the house had to tighten their skins now and not make any more trouble, and they couldn't do anything that might be gossiped about, and no matter how urgent they were, they had to wait until after that day had passed.

"Look at it, you're really calculating, and your brain is spinning fast when something happens."

"Third young master, the maid is called making plans early, and if there is a change in the future, he will not be in a hurry."

"Okay, okay, don't play tricks with you, tell Sù Meilun to tell her to wait with peace of mind, and I'll wait for a few days."

"Yes, Third Young Master."

"Second lady, hurry up, the third lady is now the eldest lady in the house, you be careful not to touch her moldy head."

"I heard that Miss Three is eighteen years old this year?"

"Well, her birthday in July."

"That's not ...... Her Greetings...... I am in a hurry to be in the hot filial piety. Bai Ko suddenly sympathized with the third lady.

"There is nothing, but the ladies of the family celebrate simply behind closed doors, and their relatives and friends have given a lot of gifts, but it is not good to invite guests to do a lot of things at home."

"Son, let's make some cute snacks, and ask Uncle Yan to prepare the ingredients tomorrow."

"You're ready to do something?"

"It's a bit vague, and I won't know if the second lady and the two young ladies like it until I make it."

"As long as you don't use your brainpower on calculating people, it's pretty good."

"Third young master, the servant is on an errand in this huge mansion, and when there is a conflict of interest with others at any time, the servant must abide by a principle, that is, if people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone."

"It's not that you are harshly against calculating others, it's just that your face is not too obvious when you use your brain, there are a bunch of stupid people in the kitchen who can't see it, but if you want to take over Pang's mother's class, you have to be smarter."

Bai Ko immediately danced with joy, "Yes, Third Young Master, the maid will obey the order." ”

After bowing and retreating, Bai Ko returned to the room and began to write a list, asked the treasury to prepare red beans to boil red bean paste, and wrote a private letter to Yan Bo, telling him to wait for filial piety to ask Zhao Qi's family to meet and see each other, and then asked him how Zhao Qi's uncle and cousin were doing
