The next day, it was dawning, thinking that he had arrived in the capital and did not have to run around, and his heart was solid, and the masters and servants slept soundly and comfortably. He'er embroidered apricot yelled late, and hurriedly got up and waited for Zangjiao to get up and wash up her morning makeup.

Xiuxing is good at combing her hair, combing carefully against the bronze mirror and Tibetan Jiao, pulling a hanging cloud bun, inserting a Qingtian hosta obliquely in her hair, hanging a small pearl in her ears, smiling and looking forward to her eyebrows, quiet and gentle like a white lotus Tingting shrouded in fog.

Xiuxing blinked and admired: "The lady is so good-looking, just like the beauty in the lady's beautiful picture." He'er often waited beside Zangjiao, and said while cleaning up the dresser: "Of course our lady is beautiful, look at your fuss." It's not that I'm biased to say, there is no one in Pingzhou Mansion who has such a talented and emotional face. ”

Zangjiao's eyebrows added a little caution, and Zhengse said to the two girls: "Don't talk nonsense, you have no intention of saying it, if you are listened to, you will definitely say that our master and servant are frivolous." Moreover, there is a difference between high and low, how can our family background be compared with those high-ranking ladies? But it is enough to come in peace, and return in peace, and such words shall not be spoken again.

The embroidered apricot and lotus all bowed their heads, and remembered the lady's instructions. Here, when He'er saw that it was cleaned up, she was ready to go to get breakfast, and when she raised her feet, she heard that there was suddenly a mother-in-law outside the door who asked to see her loudly, saying that she was the grandmother of the Fujun family. When Xiuxing hurriedly went out and opened the door to look, it turned out to be Mama Hu, who was accompanying the daughter of the princess, and she was carrying a huge food box in her hand and asked to see Mrs. Jin.

Zangjiao hurriedly ordered to let her in, smiled and sat down, and ordered He'er to serve tea. This Mama Hu didn't say anything, handed the box to Xiuxing, and sat diagonally on the stool and said with a smile: "The old slave came presumptuously, he shouldn't have come to disturb the lady so early, it turned out that my lady saw that the diet was rough all the way, and she was really not used to eating, so she took the silver to make another meal in the kitchen." Thinking that the lady is a fellow villager, and they are all waiters, and the same road should be taken care of, I told my wife and I to send some, which is also the friendship of the fellow villagers. ”

Mama Hu was wearing a dark green cocoon silk gown and a blue cotton skirt. Insert two or three gold-headed silver hairpins on the head. With a big face and a big mouth, he spoke loudly, and at first glance he was a shrewd and refreshing person, and while talking, he had quietly swept Zang Jiaotong's body up and down several times.

Zangjiao thought to herself that although the daughter of the Jun family in this mansion had come all the way, she had never met a few times, let alone had any handover. How suddenly he reprimanded people today? And his own family originally came with wings attached to the door, how dare he have the intention of asking someone to take care of it. Busy said with a smile: "There is Mama Lao walking around, thanks to your mansion all the way, I should have come to thank you a long time ago, but I am afraid that Duanmu Niangzi will be tired of traveling and driving, and it will disturb the rest." It's really deserved to bother so much now. Please also ask Mama to go back and reply, and Zangjiao will come to thank you in person. ”

The voice was soft and the words were modest, and Mama Hu showed a slight satisfaction on her face, so she got up and said: "In this case, don't disturb the lady's meal, and the old slave will go back." Zangjiao glanced at Xiuxing, who smiled and stuffed a purse with two small silver buns with her, and sent them out in person.

Zangjiao sat on the chair and frowned slightly, thinking about the purpose of the lady of the Fujun family, He'er had already opened the food box on the table and said with a smile: "Lady, the lady of the Fujun family is really warm-hearted, and she also scolded her mother to send food to the lady, I think she must be a gentle person, this item is really rich." ”

When Zangjiao looked at the table, she saw He'er take out a plate of red rotten fish, a plate of honey sauce fire recipe, a small bowl of sesame oil mixed with silver buds and golden needles, a small bowl of ten-spiced rose pickles, and a plate of rose bean paste flower rolls, and a large bowl of hot and fragrant pearl rice porridge, with many pine nuts and hazelnuts on it.

Xiuxing sent Mama Hu back into the room, her eyes lit up when she saw the fine food on the table, and she shrugged her small nose: "Oh, it's so fragrant, I haven't seen such exquisite food for many days, lady, come and taste it." ”

Hungry and thirsty all the way, in a hurry, although Zangjiao brought a lot of silver and two coin tickets, but also had no intention of such a meal, it was all light vegetables and light rice, smelling sweet and delicious, but had a little appetite, and enjoyed a meal according to his words. He also ordered He'er to embroider apricots and eat the rest. When the cooking was clear and the time came, he sorted out his makeup one by one, changed the clothes of the guests, and ordered Xiuxing to go to the upper room of the west courtyard of the post house to pay respects to the daughter of the king.

The prefect of Pingzhou has a surname of Duanmu, and the eldest daughter under his knee has already been married, and the second daughter Duanmu Ying is sent to the waiter. Xiuxing reported her name and surname to the mother-in-law in front of the door, and a girl greeted her.

Zangjiao smiled and Tingting stepped into the inner room, only to see a cluster of flowers, and it turned out that there were still a few girls present.

Duanmu Ying, the daughter of the prince who was sitting in the right seat, got up with a smile and stretched out her hand and said, "My sister is the lady of the Cheng family in Jinxian County, Qingxian County, please sit down and serve tea." Living in the same post, these sisters are also our fellow state waiters, and they don't have to be restrained, wait for me to introduce you. ”

The slender hand gestured to the red-clothed girl in the first seat on the left and said, "This is Gu Panxi, the young daughter of the same acquaintance in this state, and she is also my friend since childhood. This green-clothed is Mi Ruofu, the eldest daughter of the general family of Shouyuqian, and the pink-clothed is Mo Lanyi, the second daughter of the Lingjia family in Xiafen County, Zhou. Because I want to join this post together, and we are all fellow villagers in this state, I am quite fateful. took the liberty to hand over with a few first, get close to each other, and help each other and rely on each other when he enters the palace. ”

Zangjiao stood up again and exchanged salutes with all the women, and sat down again, waiting to look at Duanmu Ying's description, only to see that his bearing was calm, his eyebrows were long and green, his lips were as red as red, and his forehead was lit with plum blossoms. The light purple waist-length shirt is lined with a light lotus-colored hidden flower skirt, and the jasper ring around the waist is luxurious and pretty, which is the style of the high-ranking ladies in Beijing nowadays.

Gu Panxi, the daughter of the same acquaintance who is very familiar with her, has slightly plump skin, a lazy expression, a pair of apricot eyes, and a pair of apricot eyes, and the corners of her eyes are dotted with carmine, reflecting cherry red lips. The silk shirt is covered with a smoky gold silk shawl, which is full of charming beauty.

Mi Ruofu, who was born in a military attache family, is petite, holding her beard, and her demeanor is still weak, with only a small red mole at the corner of her mouth, which is pretty and sweet. Only Fen'an County's daughter Mo Lanyi sat at the bottom of the left with her eyebrows lowered, her pink neck drooping slightly, her white skin and black sideburns were hairpinned with a little beaded silver hairpin, a light green shirt, dressed plainly, quiet and handsome.

Zang Jiao secretly said in her heart, the outstanding people of southern Chu are the best in this state, and these ladies in Benzhou are all good-looking, not to mention the national election, how many beauties there are, and the light of their own fire, fortunately, they did not have a lofty heart, otherwise they would not be disappointed.

Those women were also looking up and down Zangjiao, although they were the daughters of a small county, they had beautiful faces, moist skin, beautiful eyes like water and mist, and dignified and elegant manners. The voice is gentle and warm, and although the dress is not very unusual, the clothes and embroidery are all excellent. The others were okay, and Gu Panxi's eyes showed a little jealousy.
