Chapter 491: The girl chats
Two days later, Bai Ko finally had a little free time to practice bow and arrow, Gu Hui also happened to be idle at home, and came over to Bai Ko with a skipping rope, and saw that she was practicing archery, so he practiced by himself next to her.
The two of them were playing their own games, and Aunt Rong suddenly came over with a letter, and it was written on the cover that Gu Hui had opened it, and Aunt Rong had naturally opened it and read it, and simply told the two girls the contents of the letter.
The letter was written by a chess friend of Gu Hui, inviting her to the eldest princess's mansion to enjoy the autumn lotus on this day of rest, and Shi Tianqi invited his friends to hold a platter banquet together.
"Ask Paint to participate in the platter feast? Okay, teach you a simple dessert to beat them. ”
"Okay." Gu Hui nodded astringently.
In the evening, when Gu Yun got home, after changing into casual clothes at home, he asked Bai Ko to talk to the ear room, and told her to prepare something delicious.
"Shi Tianqi also held a platter banquet that day, and the chess friend who painted the painting wrote a letter today to invite her to participate."
"Hey, cunning, that Shi Tianmin didn't mention anything about his sister." Gu Yun turned around twice on the spot, and clapped his palms, "What is the autumn lotus platter banquet, the brother and sister are specially inviting you, I am afraid that I will not take you out, so I specially found such a reason, Gu Hui can't cook, she wants to participate in the platter banquet, she has to bring you." ”
"You just pretend not to understand the spirit, anyway, when the time comes, the maid will teach you to paint a simple dessert, and your young master's party, the maid doesn't have to go, besides, the business at this end is more important."
"That's what I said, but they can't invite you to talk to you alone, this has made a scene, you better go with us, listen to how Shi Tianqi wants to win you over, and always give them a chance, let them know that you won't get in the way."
"Okay, then go and listen to it, but listen in vain, no matter what she says, the servant only needs to show her loyalty to you, and will definitely let them know that harming your interests is equivalent to damaging the interests of the servant, and the maid's life is not worth much, and their brother and sister are different."
Gu Yun trembled twice, feeling that Bai Ko's words sounded cold in his heart, and he touched his neck uncomfortably.
"Sure enough, it is loyal, I am very relieved, hehe, very relieved."
Bai Ko replied with a kind smile that she was best at, and Gu Yun felt that the hairs on her back stood up.
The rest of the days passed in the blink of an eye, and the weather was fine on the day of Xiu Mu, and the two carriages of the Yeguo Mansion set off for the Jiayou Princess's Mansion.
There is a family outside the gate of the house to greet the guests, and the guests will be directly led to the garden of lotus appreciation, although there is no need to meet the eldest princess, but according to the number of etiquette, Gu Yun still prepared a lot of gifts to be handed over by the family.
When she came, Bai Ko and Gu Yun took the same car, but she went out in the name of being in charge of Gu Hui, so after getting out of the car, she walked beside Shui Zhen, and the three girls were led by the servant women to the corridor where Shi Tianqi entertained guests, and Gu Yun went to see Shi Tianmin alone, and shared the snacks she brought with a group of peers, and everyone drank and was amused.
Since the girl is setting up a platter banquet, naturally everyone takes turns to cook in the kitchen after drawing lots, everyone is considerate of Gu Hui, and only asks her to be responsible for the final dessert, and it is natural that Bai Hua is doing things in the kitchen, Gu Hua gave her a hand and handed her a plate and bowl.
The meals cooked by these young ladies naturally prepared a meal for Shi Tianmin and his guests, and the maids and servants who came with the ladies were entertained elsewhere, Bai Ko ate a small stove alone because of her high status, and only Shi Tianqi's girl Scarlet Xiang was accompanied.
Bai Ko relied on his young age, and it was daytime, and he had to wait for the young master, resolutely not drinking, and Scarlet did not force her, put the wine jug in his hand, poured himself a drink, and had no alcohol on his face.
The two girls chatted while eating, and because Scarlet often went out with the young lady, she knew a lot about the things in the market, told a lot of interesting gossip, and also shared jokes about the troubles in several circles.
Chatting and chatting, Scarlet Xiang pulled the topic to the interesting story of the rich young masters fighting for the beauty and jealousy, and spending a lot of money is trivial, especially the famous prostitutes who have been famous for a long time in the land of fireworks, it is not easy to see each other, and the money is just used to knock on the door, and then it is necessary to compose poems on the spot, and it is necessary to make people feel moved to appreciate their faces and ask for a cup of tea.
"It's said that poor scholars, poor scholars, I'm surprised, how can talented literati who are not from traditional families and have not started their own businesses have so much money to knock on the door?" Bai Ko asked vaguely as he took a bite of fish meat into his mouth.
"How can poor scholars have the money to join in this fun, the tea money for sitting for one night is enough for their living expenses for several days, it is nothing more than saving food for a month, saving only enough tea money for one night, and sitting in it to watch other people's jokes."
"Isn't this sick? Don't have the money to make a fuss? Take the money to the skin and meat restaurant, and you can play until everyone is exhausted. ”
"You think they don't know how to settle accounts? But the skin and meat restaurant is so vulgar, let people know that it will damage the reputation of the reader, and if you want to be scolded for coveting women and not wanting to make progress, how can you be pure with famous prostitutes, maybe you can have a good story of a talented and beautiful woman. ”
"Chasing after the buttocks of famous prostitutes and smelling the fragrance doesn't belong to coveting women?"
"Who knows what those men think, the more money they spend, the harder it is to get a woman, the more unattainable the goddess is in their eyes."
"Actually, it's just one word, cheap."
"Steward Bai, you can't say that, otherwise you won't scold your family."
"What's wrong with scolding him? All his thoughts are on the beauty, and the mind of reading books is gone, so I will say that he is cheap. What's wrong? You're going to sue me for being black? ”
"No, no, no!" Scarlet Xiang was caught off guard, choked on the food in her mouth, and hurriedly waved her hand, "How can I say this, we just drank too much and talked nonsense." ”
"Isn't that enough, drinking, eating."
Scarlet Xiang drank half a glass of wine and ate two bites of food, thinking that she was still curious about Bai Ko's previous words.
"Steward Bai, Gu Shizi is your master in the end, what are you not used to seeing and just turn a blind eye and pass, didn't you also say it, he is the master, you are a subordinate, what can you do?"
"I can't do anything, I can't just scold him behind someone's back and vent it? This kind of thing is only easy to talk about with irrelevant outsiders, because there is no stake, don't you say? ”
"Yes, yes, yes, that's right, there are some things that you can't talk to your acquaintances, as long as you say it, everyone around you will know it for a long time."
"That's right, so I'm just talking a few words to your sister Scarlet, you are waiting for Miss Qi, will you deliberately run to Young Master Min to sue me for black behavior and ask my family to clean me up?"
"I never do that! They are all young masters and young ladies in the same circle, how embarrassing it is, do you want to meet in the future. ”
"So, I just know that Sister Scarlet is not someone who can talk nonsense to others, so I loosened my mouth a little in front of you, it's hard to be a subordinate, there has to be a place to vent your anger."
"Okay, you say, I'll listen, I'm eating anyway, and when I wake up, I'll forget everything you said."
"Hey, Sister Scarlet, your wine is really good, the wine is like your character, it can be seen that your character must also be excellent."
"Don't be a sycophant, say whatever you want to say quickly, and when lunch is over, you won't be allowed to say what you want."
Scarlet smiled and gently kicked Bai Kom under the table.
