Chapter 175: The Ou family is here
When Bai Ko returned to the main courtyard, he first went to the bedroom to see how the prince was doing, and when he had nothing to do, he liked to nest on the Luohan couch outside the bedroom, and used this room as his living room during the day.
When he stepped into the room, Gu Yun was holding a jam knife and smearing sweet jam on the bread slices, and it was spread evenly, covering the edges and corners with a layer, looking at it like this, it was impossible to imagine that this young master usually didn't eat sweets.
"Shizi, are you satisfied with the taste of fresh bread?" Bai Ko smiled and stepped forward to salute.
Gu Yun tilted his head and glanced at Bai Ko, "Have you been to see their sisters?" ”
"Yes, I just went there, and the situation is fine, and they have figured out why you are angry."
"Dare to take my words as a deaf ear, the old man's dignity has been ruined by themselves."
"Don't be angry, they have learned a lesson and have already reflected deeply."
"Really reflected?"
"Really reflected."
"Okay, let the two of them rest until Meihuan recovers from her injuries and then come back."
"Yes, Shizi."
After talking about the matter, Bai Ko saw that Shizi's attention was on bread, so she quietly retreated and went back to her room to rest, today is enough to be tired.
The next morning, Gu Yun went out early in the morning to meet friends, and Bai Ko assigned the girls' errands, so he went around the ice cellar and the east kitchen, and brought Zeng Zhu a new menu.
When she returned to Zhongming Courtyard, Bai Ko took her notebook and went to Jicheng Hall to find Pang's mother, and asked her whether there was a master in the September Mansion who had a birthday, so that she could make a record and prepare in advance.
Only the fourth young master Gu Feng and the sixth young lady Gu Ya have birthdays in September, Bai Qiao turned to the corresponding calendar page to write them down one by one, and wrote down the food tastes of these two young masters and young ladies, and made them some delicious food on their birthdays.
Pang's mother was also flipping through the book she had copied overnight, and in September, Mrs. had several meetings and personal contacts with female dependents and should also prepare in advance, and after the two chatted for a while, Pang's mother simply led Bai Ko into Mrs.'s ear room to discuss together.
The three of them chatted and talked about the release of the list, Gu Jing and Gu Yun in case they were on the list, the family would inevitably have to set up a banquet, after the test of the last two banquets, Bai Ko was already a recognized banquet chef in the house, and now he was the supervisor of the East Kitchen, and it was more convenient to negotiate directly with her than to find Zeng Zhu.
When the rules and regulations were being agreed, Jin Hu took a name and pasted it in to report that there was someone on the street who claimed to be Miss Gu Hui's aunt who asked to see him.
The eldest lady took the name sticker and took a closer look, it did indeed have the names of the district family members written on it, so she asked Jin Hu to go to the front to bring in the guests.
Jin Amber went out with his front foot, and Bai Ko took the name sticker with his back foot and went to the back building.
Gu Hui's mother, Ou's real name, is Ou Shuangrong, so she is now called Aunt Rong in the house, dressed as a servant woman and dedicated to her daughter's life, the only outsider who knows her true identity is Imperial Doctor Min, because the medical expenses are out of two people, so every time he comes to the follow-up visit, he is a mother and daughter together, this can't be hidden from him, in addition, even the subordinates of Jichengtang don't know the relationship between Aunt Rong and Miss Gu Hui, after all, her current image is very different from the image of the noble lady she came to eat that day.
Ou Shuangrong took the famous sticker, and saw that the guest who came to visit was her eldest sister-in-law Zhang, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile.
"If it weren't for the fact that I had relied on borrowing my mother's house to make a fortune, I am afraid that I would have died in their house long ago."
"Aunt Rong, do you want to take advantage of the fact that no one is coming, go over and wait first? Your sister-in-law must have a lot to say when she meets. ”
"No, your lady is a guest, what am I doing in it as a servant woman, don't provoke people to gossip."
"Yes, then I'll go over and listen to Aunt Rong first."
"Thank you."
Bai Ko quickly slipped back to the eldest lady's ear room and relayed Ou Shuangrong's words to the eldest lady, and then the eldest lady asked Bai Ko to stand with Pang's mother.
Because it was a female guest who came to visit, after the news reached the gate, Zhang's carriage had to go around the side door into Babu Alley, which took some time, and when she walked into the ear room under the guidance of Jin Hu, even the tea and snacks for the guests were already on the table.
Zhang is a medium-sized woman with a somewhat plump figure, but her face is small and delicate, but her face is sad, and she can't stretch her brows after bowing to the eldest lady and sitting down.
"I took the liberty to visit, and I asked my wife to forgive me."
"It's okay, you're Ei'er's aunt, and it's common sense to come and see the child. You take a break and see if you call out or if you go and see her. The eldest lady didn't ask how the other party knew that Gu Hui was in her own house.
"Mrs. Lao is bothered, and suddenly I heard that Hui'er lives in the house, and our family in the district is very relieved, it is better than her in her own home."
The eldest lady immediately understood that the district family knew about the child's survival.
"Mrs. Ou, otherwise, you can have a sip of tea first, and then go to the back to see the child, and we'll talk about it again when we come back." The eldest lady said with connotation.
Zhang naturally didn't notice the connotation, but the Duchess of Guo didn't like her sudden arrival, thanked weakly, took a few sips of the cup, and then saluted and got up to see the child.
Bai Ko led the Zhang family to the back building.
In the courtyard on the first floor of the back cover building, Shui Zhen was sprinkling water and sweeping the floor, and when she saw Zhang's coming over, she hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and after listening to her two words, Bai Ko knew that Shui Zhen was the girl purchased by Aunt Rong's family, and she was sent to the Yeguo Mansion for more than a month when she arrived at Gu Hui's side, no wonder Shui Zhen looked healthy, and it was good to make up for it with food.
Shui Zhen led Zhang's upstairs to see Miss, Aunt Rong was also in the main room, and Bai Ko accompanied her to the second floor but didn't enter the house, just stayed in the corridor.
As soon as the sister-in-law met inside, the cry came out.
Bai Ko silently walked away, not listening to the crying inside.
This is almost the time of a stick of incense, Shui Zhen also came out, went downstairs and brought the washing water back to the house, and then saw Zhang come out with his makeup again, his eyes were slightly swollen, but the love between his eyebrows had relaxed a lot, and he no longer had the sad face when he first entered the door.
Ou Shuangrong came out together to send her sister-in-law downstairs, the time was limited, and there were many words between the sister-in-law who didn't have time to say, but the person is now in the Guogong Mansion, and in the future, the mother's family will come here to visit their relatives, and it is good to go over there to see the ugly aunt's family.
Bai Ko bowed slightly to Ou Shuangrong and said goodbye, and led Zhang back to the front to see the eldest lady.
The eldest lady and Pang's mother were still discussing in the ear room, Bai Ko led Zhang into the door, she saluted and thanked her and sat down, the girl came in and served fresh tea again and quietly retreated, and the room continued to be the four of them.
"Thank you, Madame, for letting the woman see her family."
"I'm sure you've already figured out what you're going to tell me?"
"Yes, Sister Rong let the women have something to say."
"Then let's say it, these two people around me are in charge of the hospital, and there is no one else, you don't have to scruple, just say what grievances you have."
