Chapter 148: Contrast
Dealing with Yuan's affairs only requires Fang Bingbing's command, experienced stewards' daughters-in-law, such as Kunbu's daughter-in-law, naturally know what to do, Mingsheng and Secretly descend again, what Yuan's can do in the past Qingcao and Qingguo immediately accept plus Curry's grandmother to serve on the side, and nothing will go wrong, as for what Yuan's heart thinks, no one wants to know.
There is a governor above the general army, but this governor lives far away, so he can't even go to the door, but Zhanxiang and Hesheri have arrived to make Cheng Yang and his wife very surprised, they and Zhanxiang haven't seen each other for several years, Hesheri has such a temper, and Fang Bingbing still doesn't get along, but Zhanxiang has always been affectionate and affectionate, and the two good ones are like a family.
Zhanxiang's Consular Mansion is very close to the General Military Mansion, because Cheng Yang is Zhanxiang's superior, and the two have been friends for many years, so the reception banquet was held in the General Military Mansion.
Fang Bingbing checked the kitchen and found that many dishes could not be bought at all, so he couldn't help but say anxiously: "Go buy cooked vegetables first, there are not many vegetables here, there is no way, but they can't be too tired, if they are tired of eating after a long journey, they will be nauseous." ”
"It's true, there is more meat and less vegetables here, and it is inevitably greasy. Even if you go to a restaurant and order a table, most of them are like this. Khumbu's daughter-in-law was also worried.
Fang Bingbing said: "There are more cantaloupe and watermelon here, and there are also many grapes, so it is better to cut it and take it out as a staple food." And scrambled eggs with onions, don't put too much oil......"
That's the only way, Fang Bingbing has already made people start cultivating vegetable fields. But the dish doesn't grow in a day. The dishes are done, and the hall has to be arranged, Fang Bingbing looked at the front hall. It can't help but be a little simple, but it seems that he doesn't pay attention to the guests, "Go and hang two of Dong Qichang's calligraphy and paintings, and put a pair of bottles in Duobao Pavilion." ”
"Do you want to put that potted plant you bought yesterday?" Ginkgo asked.
Fang Bingbing nodded. After the arrangement of foreign affairs, the child is bound to be brought out to meet people, and the crescent moon has learned the rules very well, and there is no need to mention it anymore. But Brother Nian is still young, and it won't be beautiful if he cries during dinner, so he can't help but call Mama Curry over and say to her: "If he makes trouble." You take him down. ”
In this way, by the time Hesheri came over, although it was already night, there was still a sun in this part of southern Xinjiang. Hescheri's complexion is good. Followed by a woman who was also dressed as a woman, Hesheri smiled and said to Fang Bingbing: "This is the He family of our grandfather." "He was sent by a subordinate official under Zhanxiang, Hesheri is very generous in this matter, her son was also born, and there is nothing to control a man, Zhanxiang actually refuses again and again, but Hesheri insisted, and Zhanxiang smiled. Moreover, although the He family is a small jasper, he is also the daughter of an official family. The knowledge and interest are stronger than those of the Hesheri clan, and the He family is also valued by Zhanxiang.
"You dusty people, how are you children?" Fang Bingbing asked about Zhanxiang's son.
Hesheri said: "It's okay, but I'm afraid that he will see the wind when I go out, so my grandmother will be there." "Heschelis may have been married for a few years, and his temperament is still cheerful but also much more peaceful.
The change of Hesheri is a good phenomenon, Fang Bingbing squinted and let his subordinates serve tea and melons and fruits, and enthusiastically let them eat, Hesheri generously forked a piece to eat, He was a lot more subtle, and when he ate, he sat on a small corner of the stool, and when he ate, he seemed to be ready to stand up at will.
"The melons here are very sweet." Hesheri wiped his hands with his men's handkerchief.
Fang Bingbing said: "The sun is big here, so the melons and fruits are also sweet." ”
It happened that the crescent moon and Brother Nian came over, and the two greeted the Hesheri family, and the Hesheri family pulled the crescent moon and didn't let go, the little girl was very good, she was round but not fat, and she used a handkerchief to block it when she laughed, and the people who watched it were greedy, "How can such a good girl be called out?" "Don't look at the Hesheri clan is full of people, but not everyone in her family is very promising, although the Cheng family is in the Han military banner, but the Cheng family is not bad, the girl in this family is also very good, it just so happens that the girl's mother can also give birth, this girl is also a suitable man, but it is a pity that the marriage.
"It's obedient now, and it's just as naughty when you carry someone." I think my daughter is good, and I should be humble when outsiders praise her.
Hesheri is not a stingy person, she has a lot of dowry, and it is not without harvest with Zhanxiang in front, so it is very appropriate to give Yue'er a set of Yingluo bracelets that have been prepared a long time ago, and to give Nian Ge'er a small bow and arrow and the four treasures of the study. The children took the gifts and were taken away by their respective grandmothers, and then the Hesheri clan asked about the crescent moon, "Did you give it to the son of Gu Fei, the governor of Huguang?" ”
"Exactly, it is a great honor for the emperor to marry." Fang Bingbing said with a smile.
The Hesheri clan also has uncles and uncles serving in the imperial court, and she herself is now married to the Han Army Banner, so she naturally has a few capable people in the Han Army Banner, among which Gu Fei is more important, and Cheng Yang is also a rising star, but the former is listed with the emperor and is very capable as an official, but this marriage is inexplicable, and the Hesheri family feels that he and the Cheng family are now good at the same family, and they are their own people, so they asked in a little more detail, "Why is it with his family?" ”
"It's Mrs. Gu who has taken a fancy to her, I see that although his family is like that, the child's character is not bad." This shows that Fang Bingbing actually values Gu Xiao a lot.
Hesheri said: "It's also a beautiful thing, but that Gu Gongzi is ten years older than the girl, and you didn't arrange someone to go over?" "The Hesheri clan doesn't look down on Bingbing at all, it's not generous, the wife is so jealous, he doesn't prepare concubines for his husband, even if the Fang clan looks young, there are more than twenty people, but there is not even a room at home, this really doesn't make sense.
"The child's stepmother is still there, why should we be like this, besides, he has a grandmother and parents, and the person we sent over is not beautiful after all." In fact, Fang Bingbing didn't want to do this, mortals have selfish intentions, it is difficult to get a room to hold Gu Xiao, so who is his real wife, if the person who sent it over is very shameful, it will not be beautiful in the future, this is not a dowry reward for others.
There is also a little Du Shi will definitely give people, Gu Xiao may not be resistant. This is also a good thing for Yue'er, so why should she bother?
Hesheri was not without eyes, she used to be perfunctory. After all, she often goes out and walks around now, and she also knows that the Fang family is not an ordinary woman, and she is still the wife of her husband's boss, so she pretends to be very agreeable: "Yes, his family also has arrangements." ”
Seeing that she was so interested today, Fang Bingbing couldn't help but mention a few words, "Why are you a few days late?" We came here with the counselor of Niu Hulu's family before, but his family was very busy and didn't bother. Have you seen them before? Fang Bingbing told the origin of Zhao Jia's family again.
The Hesheri clan is also a Manchurian noblewoman, although their house is ruined, the Hesheri family is still very handy, of course she knows this Zhaojia clan. "I saw it a few times when I was a kid. He's a very well-behaved person. The implication of this rule is that he loves to play music very much.
Since I knew Zhaojia all the way before, I really love to play music.
When Fang Bingbing watched her talk to Hesheri, the He family had always looked at her nose and nose, and she could see that she was a person with excellent rules, and she didn't say a word, no matter who saw such a concubine, she was comfortable. She is sensible and will not rob her wife's power, but she is more beautiful and gentle. It's strange that the man can't favor him.
The ladies are all kinds of gossip, and the men are even more lively. Because it is a good family with the Zhan family, everyone sits down to eat at the round table. Zhanxiang also got up to salute Fang Bing, Fang Bingbing also got up and saluted, Zhanxiang kept a smile on his face: "I never thought of being with Uncle Cheng again." ”
Cheng Yang also recalled the time when he was in the military household office, "At that time, we lived close, and you always came to eat here on weekdays, but now it is really not easy to eat together......
"I'm afraid that you will eat hot food and make cold dishes, if there is anything wrong, I will talk to the chef again." Fang Bingbing interjected, reminding them to eat.
Zhan Xiang smiled: "Auntie is still like this, I think it's very good." After speaking, he also gestured to the Hesheri clan with his eyes, and the Hesheri clan also said well.
Zhanxiang and his family left after eating, because the relationship was very close, Zhanxiang had already decided to ask Cheng Yang to run a horse on the second day, and Hesheri glanced at Fang Bingbing helplessly.
The guests and hosts were happy, and Fang Bingbing's vegetable planting plan was also put on the agenda, and the guests could no longer be allowed to come to the days when there were no vegetables to eat, so Xiang Xing was specially sent to supervise. Ginkgo was always worried for a few days a few days because she said the wrong thing, and now that Xiangxing is not here, she also wants to chart xiàn.
"Master, is Lord Yuxiang going to send back the post?" She reminded her of the things that the master didn't remember, which was also a good thing.
Fang Bingbing sighed, and then said: "It's just that it's not good to let her come over if it's not a year, and besides, you also know her person, it's a little ......."
Ginkgo also knows that this Zhaojia family looks down on people very much, and she is also average in her own personal life, so it is difficult for such a person to get the respect and recognition of others, but don't worry about the Zhaojia family.
No, the grandmother beside Zhaojia's side persuaded: "If the mountain can't come, you can go over." Mrs. Zhan had already gone to dinner once, and I heard that she also gave Miss Cheng and Young Master Cheng a meeting gift. Originally, we still came together, since we were preempted before, but if Mrs. Zhan is like this, it will inevitably seem that the relationship between the master and the general military office has not been handled by Zhan. ”
Fang's is nothing important? But this also means a kind of closeness, the general army has two staff leaders, one staff leader has a good relationship with the general army, and one staff leader does not come and go, if there is any news in the future, there is also a difference between intimacy and alienation.
Zhao Jiashi tilted his head and thought for a while before he said: "Tingyu don't bring it over, I'll go there in person, their Cheng family has been exiled before, they must have never seen anything good, just send something a little more expensive." ”
So, Fang Bingbing received a letter of worship from Niu Hulu's family, but this time she didn't pay as much attention as last time, and only instructed Ginkgo: "Take out the best tea." "Zhao Jia's is a bit pretending and not very easy-going, so to entertain her, you have to get some expensive things, and she values these things the most.
Xiangxing pinched the leeks and went to the kitchen, and the mother-in-law in the kitchen laughed: "How can I bother you to come over." ”
"Let's make a leek box for the master first, it's not good to eat greasy meat these days." Xiangxing put down the leeks and left.
After the mother-in-law took it, she didn't dare to delay and did it immediately. Now the biggest thing in the back house is the hostess, the male owner does not have a concubine and a messy daughter like Tongfang, so the hostess's position is stable, Yuan's is a lesson from the past, and there is a careful mind to deal with the master, and they are naturally omniscient when they receive the news of the hostess, not to mention that it is still within the scope of their duties.
"Master, Mrs. Yuxiang is here......" Ginkgo said softly in Fang Bingbing's ear.
Fang Bingbing didn't stand up to greet her, Zhao Jiashi felt a little uncomfortable, but thinking that the purpose of her coming was to win over the relationship, so a smile appeared on her face: "Hello Mrs. Cheng." ”
Fang Bingbing pretended to be concerned: "I heard that you were not accustomed to the water and soil a few days ago, and I wanted to go to see you, but my side is also a mess, just when you came?" Are you okay? ”
Zhao Jia's connection is good.
Zhao Jia's family brought a heavy gift, originally thought that Fang Bingbing would call the children out, but she made a mistake, Fang Bingbing only let people serve tea and there was no follow-up, the tea was good tea, but Fang's attitude was not very friendly to her.
That's not good, she is still a little conscious, "Why didn't you see the girl and the young master?" I've got a greeting here. ”
Fang Bingbing said embarrassedly: "It's unfortunate, the little one went to run a horse with his father, and the big one is learning the rules, I'm afraid he is still learning at this time." ”
People and children have things, and they can't even give gifts when they get them, and they are still very simple these years. This Zhao Jia's family has always been held by others, but she doesn't think about this, she doesn't look down on Fang Bingbing from the bottom of her heart, and she refuses to eat and hang up naturally, she really thinks that the world is your mother? I still have to spoil you.
This slap of Zhao Jia's family can't say it, and people will say that you can't do things.
When Ginkgo saw her leave, she smiled and said, "She suffered a dumb loss this time." ”
Fang Bingbing was not as optimistic as her, and when she saw the crescent moon coming over to ask for peace, she couldn't help but think of Gu Xiao, "The person we arranged is on the Zhuangzi, and if you have a chance, you will send it to the Governor's Mansion of Huguang." I don't know how Gu Xiao is doing now? ”
In fact, most of the people on Du's Zhuangzi are Du's dowries, and Fang Bingbing also sent trustworthy people there, and they are still local in Shanxi, so Fang Bingbing is not worried about this, what she is worried about is Gu Fei's current situation with Gu Xiao?
Gu Xiao, who was far away in Huguang, sneezed at this time, he put down the book in his hand, and happened to come over, "Young Master, put on some clothes, the weather is getting colder and colder." (To be continued.) )
