The firecracker crumbs that have exploded in the past few days have painted the long street with a layer of red. The wheels passed by, splashing red flakes. As soon as the morning dawned, Luo Yan and the others left the Rong Mansion. Two light warm cars drove towards the dyeing workshop on Feihong, and the sound of firecrackers rang out from time to time......

"This time the second lady is really a bit excessive!" The gentle Mrs. Jiang was a little indignant. The words that had been suppressed all night were confided at this moment, and Fang Jue was smooth.

"Mother-in-law can't be angry about this, it's just a thousand taels of silver, and it's good to be able to deal with the treasure chest."

"However, we are going to build a new garden, and every tael of silver will be saved." Mrs. Jiang knew that Mrs. Cheng was using the treasure chest to show her lordship in the Rong Mansion. But the old lady is still there, and Mrs. Cheng's intentions are too obvious, which is really infuriating.

“…… It's all giving, isn't it blocking to say these now! Rong Yongxi leaned in the carriage and seemed to be asleep, but then a sentence came out. Mrs. Jiang stopped, glanced at Rong Yongxi, who seemed to be asleep again, and smiled at Luo Yan, "It's me who is careful!" ”

Luo Yan smiled and said nothing, but she was thinking about how to place the treasure chest...... The carriage arrived in front of the Millennium Dyeing House, and Jiu'er and Mu Lian greeted him.

"But when he came back, he was spoiled by the slaves and maids...... On the first day of the new year, Yu Gongzi came to pay New Year's greetings to the old lady, and he said that he would come back when the old lady came back...... "Jiu'er helped Luo Yan get out of the car."

"Hurry up and fire the cannon!" Mu Lian shouted at Yang Lin, and Yang Lin hung two long whips from the branches next to the door, and then set them off. The crackling sound shook the four wilds.

"Today's firecrackers are extraordinarily loud!" Mrs. Jiang got out of the carriage and smiled at the firecrackers that kept flying with sparks. Her voice was drowned out by the sound of cannons, and the expression on her face was much brighter by this time. Mrs. Jiang covered Luo Yan's ears, for fear of startling her fetal gas.

The sound of the cannon finally stopped, and Jiu'er saw the treasure chest standing side by side with Jin Yuan. "Sister Treasure Chest, are you here? Is the old lady okay? "The first day of junior high school met in Qixia Mountain. At this time, goodbye to the treasure chest, Jiu'er thought that there was something wrong with the old lady.

The treasure chest blushed, and for a moment did not know what to say, and smiled wryly. "The treasure chest has been ransomed out of the house, and she will help in the workshop in the future. Let's live with Mu Lian first. Luo Yan said casually, suddenly realizing that the treasure chest was working in the workshop, which was a good idea......

"The old lady is very nice. Jiu'er is really getting more and more sensible! Mrs. Jiang praised. Luo Yan's heart moved. remembered what I had said to Rong Xi at the beginning. When I returned to Jiangdu for the Chinese New Year this year, I recognized Jiu'er as my sister-in-law. Now it's just waiting for Rong Xi to come back......

There are two more big girls who can do things in the dye room, and they suddenly become lively. Luo Yan also temporarily let go of her thoughts about Rong Xi. Planning for the beginning of spring.

Yuchen came to pay New Year's greetings on the ninth day, and Jiu'er saw Yuchen and said, "Didn't you say that you came over on the sixth day of the first month, why did you come?" ”

Yu Chen was snorting pine nuts and listened to Jiu'er say this. I almost jumped my teeth. "When did Young Master Ben say that the sixth day of junior high school was coming, but no one was there when he came on the first day of junior high school. You said they came back on the fifth day of the new year. I said I'd come back in a few days......"

"Smash it with this, you thin-toothed and white-toothed one, be careful to bite it off." Luo Yan handed Yu Chen a small hammer.

"It's still my sister-in-law who knows that I feel distressed!" Yu Chen grimaced at Jiu'er and slammed the pine nuts. Put them in a small dish and save them up.

Mrs. Jiang said with a smile, "Yu Chen is also a person who can live, and the lady he marries in the future will be blessed." ”

Yu Chen's face suddenly turned red. "If you don't marry, it's very troublesome!". Luo Yan asked Jiu'er to fetch some cakes. Yu Chen suddenly remembered something, "Bring me some of the red cakes you ate last time I came." ”

Jiu'er also grimaced at him, "What kind of red cake, that's jujube paste sour plum cake, I don't have it today, I have to make a new one." ”

"I'm not afraid to wait." Yu Chen grinned. "Since you're not in a hurry, let's have lunch here today!" Luo Yan asked Jiu'er to make cakes.

"It was made by Mu Lian, and the slave hasn't learned it yet, so I'll call her to go." Jiu'er happily headed towards the front yard. In the past few days, Mu Lian and Yang Lin have been cleaning up in the dyeing room in the front yard. Seeing that it is about to be the tenth day of the new year, the government and business have already started to open, and the millennial dye shop has to open.

After lunch, Mu Lian came in with a newly made jujube paste sour plum cake. Yu Chen is not afraid of being hot, he will grab it when he reaches out. "Last time my sister-in-law wasn't there, I wasn't embarrassed to eat more. You're welcome this time. ”

"Eat, enough to eat! I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it. Luo Yan was amused by Yu Chen's exaggerated appearance.

Yu Chen said while eating, "When will Brother Rong Yu come back, I can't wait, I still want to go to the capital with him." I heard that in a few days, the list of Jinshi will be released, and the top four will enter the palace to listen to the seal. I estimate that Brother Rong Xi will definitely be able to win the top four this time, if he misses the emperor's personal seal, it will be a loss......"

Luo Yan looked thoughtful, and the originally faint thoughts came back to her. The dreams that had been going on for days were gone, and my somewhat calm heart was now restless again......

"Today's cake is not as refreshing as the first time, and I always feel that something is missing." Yu Chen patted the cake residue in his hand. Jiu'er handed him a handkerchief to wipe his hands.

After talking for a long time, Luo Yan also had a little appetite, picked up a piece of jujube paste and sour plum cake and took a bite. The taste is sweet and sour, and the mouth is still full of juice. It's delicious! "You're eating with your mouth!"

"I really don't lie to my sister-in-law, that **** eats this cake, I feel a fragrance and smoothness, and I always feel that there is a little less fire today......"

"I think you're picky, don't believe it, let Jiu'er taste it and compare it." Luo Yan broke a piece for Jiu'er to eat. Jiu'er blinked at Luo Yan, nodded and shook her head.

Yu Chen asked Jiu'er hard if she was a little lacking in taste. Jiu'er glanced at Mu Lian, "Is there something missing, it doesn't seem to have the taste of that day." But it's delicious! ”

"See, this girl is getting better at speaking slick words. When I go back to the East Fence Treasure Pavilion this time, I'll let her sit at the counter......"

"That's it! Those girls and ladies are all coming for Yu Gongzi! If I sit at the counter, I guess I won't be able to sell so many jewelry items......" Jiu'er talked a lot, arguing with Yuchen, which always made her feel happy.

Yu Chen couldn't say anything about Jiu'er, got up and said goodbye, "Come back after fifteen, if Brother Rong Yu hasn't come back, I will go to the capital with Jiu'er......"

Yu Chen's front foot has just left, and Baodie has come to pay New Year's greetings.

"Why are you here on this cold day?" When Mrs. Jiang saw that Baodie was coming alone, she couldn't help but worry.

"The slave must come to see the third grandmother, the slave and the maid's life is given by the third grandmother, and they must come to see it on three festivals a year." Bao Die said and gave Luo Yan and Mrs. Jiang a deep salute.

Luo Yan hurriedly helped her up, "You don't need to be like this if your body is inconvenient, we all understand it when you have your mind." How can Master He rest assured that you will come out alone? ”

Bao Die's belly is only more than three months old, but it looks much larger than that of ordinary women, and she feels a little dragging when she walks.

"He went to the capital on an errand, and he won't be back until a few days later. I can't wait for him to come back and come back to see Mrs. and the third grandmother......" Baodie saw Luo Yan looking at her belly, touched her stomach embarrassedly and said, "I also think this belly is a little big, maybe it's lazy and delicious recently!" ”

Mrs. Jiang pinched her fingers and calculated, "This child is in labor at the end of June, and it was not too hot at that time, and it was not uncomfortable to be confined." Yan'er's birth date is at the end of August, when the autumn is just cool, and it is also the time of harvest of vegetables and fruits, and the days are good. ”

After gossiping for a while, Baodie saw that it was not early, and said goodbye to leave. Luo Yan wanted to send it, but Baodie stopped her, saying that she would not be allowed to go out. Mrs. Jiang said: "I'll go and send Bao Die, you stay well." If you really want to go out, Baodie is not at ease. Luo Yan had no choice but to do it.

Mrs. Jiang sent Baodie to the door of the dyeing workshop, and the little girl of the He family helped Baodie get into the car. Baodie lifted the curtain of the car and looked at Mrs. Jiang, hesitated for a moment or said, I heard from someone from the capital yesterday that Zhao Bocong, the eleventh prince, was missing, and Rong Xi and Zhao Bocong were together, and they didn't know their whereabouts......
