Chapter 221: You're welcome

Qingyun said with a smile, "The roast duck and cake are not made by the chef in the house, there were many people invited to the banquet yesterday, and there were not enough people in the house, so I invited a few, I also like the cake, but it is too sweet and greasy, it is okay to eat it occasionally, and it is not good for the body to eat too much." ”

Before she finished speaking, a lady asked, "I heard that a new restaurant is going to open in Kyoto, and it will sell roast duck and cakes, is it true?" ”

Qingyun was stunned, and then smiled at the corner of her mouth, she also planned to help Chubei promote one or two, but she didn't expect the restaurant to be famous, she nodded and said, "I also heard about it, it should be true." ”

The girl immediately smiled, the happy and bright eyes of the smile.

Talking about the cake, several maids over there brought food boxes and said with a smile, "Girl, the cake is here." ”

Qingyun and Zhou Ziting looked at each other.

Mu Qianjiao smiled and said, "I saw yesterday that everyone likes to eat cakes, but they just tasted some of them, and they didn't have a lot of fun, so they didn't let the maid go to the Hou Mansion to ask for some." ”

Qingyun held five or six food boxes, and her brows furrowed.

It shouldn't be, she came to the door in person, asked Mu Qianjiao and a few cousins to help, but was rejected, grandmother is an evil fire in her belly, even if the third old lady came to the door in person, she choked her, and still remembered, Shangshu Mansion asked the cake of the Hou Mansion to entertain the ladies who came to send makeup, and the grandmother would give it so happily?

To Shangshufu, when did grandmother talk so well?

Zhou Ziting also felt that there was a problem, she looked at Qingyun, lowered her voice and said, "Could it be that at yesterday's banquet, my grandmother was so happy, so Shangshu Mansion had something to ask for, so she agreed happily?" ”

Saying that, without waiting for Qingyun to answer, Zhou Ziting muttered, "Grandmother is not so happy that she can't find someone from the north." ”

Among them, there must be something greasy.

Over there, Mu Qianran and Mu Qianjiao asked the maid to take the cake out and carefully beckoned everyone to eat.

Everybody has it. Qingyun and Zhou Ziting did not.

Mu Qianjiao said with a smile, "The maid doesn't bring much, and there are many Hou mansions left and right, so I won't entertain you." You eat the jujube cake I made in the kitchen. ”

Zhou Ziting pursed her lips secretly, she really doesn't know how to be a person, the pastries are still brought from the Hou Mansion, who will send the makeup, but she and the third cousin don't. The Hou Mansion has it, so they can't eat it?

Qingyun smiled, and didn't see the air at all, "You don't need to bring the jujube mud cake, the Hou Mansion also has it." ”

Zhou Ziting couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing, the third cousin's mouth was really smart, with such a smiling face and a gentle tone. But it can hurt people's hearts.

Mu Qianjiao's face turned red instantly, and she could almost drip blood.

She bit her lower lip and looked left and right without a trace, relieved to see that everyone's attention was on the cake.

Fortunately, everyone didn't hear it, otherwise it would have been passed around as a smiling face.

In fact, Feng Yuan, who was sitting close, and the daughter of the household servant's mansion heard it.

Especially Feng Yuan, before she met Qingyun, she had a very good time with Mu Qianjiao and Mu Qianran, and she got acquainted with Qingyun yesterday and admired her intelligence. Now I admire her conversation.

Looking at Mu Qianjiao again, I only felt that she was a little ignorant.

Fang Cai Qingyun said that you can't eat too much cake, it is not beneficial to the body. This pastry was brought from the Hou Mansion, or the cook she found made it, she served it to her, and she would definitely shirk it, which was much better than her saying that she would not give it to her so directly.

A small pastry, which was eaten quickly. Everyone eats elegantly, but also in small amounts, and pays attention to a shallow taste.

Just finished eating, the maid outside came to report, and another lady came to add makeup to Mu Qianran.

This time, four people came, including the eldest girl of the Marquis of Changning.

When she saw Qingyun, she was slightly stunned, and glanced at the Qingying standing behind Qingyun without a trace.

The light lingered on the brocade box held by Qingying for a long time, and a smile on the corner of her mouth suddenly disappeared.

Qingyun saw it with sharp eyes, her brows furrowed, she said that day that she would take Mu Qianran to pick a golden hairpin to add makeup, it seems that she heard it, otherwise she wouldn't laugh like this when she saw her take the jewelry box of Jin Mantang.

It's just that she can still use her hands and feet on the golden hairpin in Jinmantang?

Even if she could, she couldn't be sure that she would pick this one among so many golden hairpins.

Qingyun was suspicious.

Everyone over there came in, saw a cake on the table, and said with a smile, "Are you eating cakes, Shangshufu will also make them?" ”

Mu Qianran said with a smile, "Where will it be, these are the ones I specially asked to come back from the Hou Mansion to entertain everyone." ”

The girl sighed lightly, "I thought Shangshufu would do the same, otherwise I would have asked you for a recipe." ”

As she spoke, she glanced at Qingyun.

Everyone likes pastries so much, and she also said that if Qingyun wants to make friends with them, she should send cake recipes.

But Qingyun sat there, drinking tea by herself, and didn't say a word.

Mu Qianran smiled, "If I have it, everyone likes it, I will definitely send it with both hands." ”

Qingyun didn't speak, Zhou Ziting smiled, "If the Hou Mansion has it, everyone liked it so much yesterday, and they must have taught everyone how to do it, the cook that the third cousin invited back, the shelf is big, the third cousin took a yard and built a stove for them to cook and make pastries, and no one knows how to do it." ”

Feng Yuan said with a smile, "Yesterday's roast duck, which one didn't say it was good, such a chef is not invited by ordinary people, going to someone else's house to cook food, it is inevitable that there is a possibility of being stolen, the third girl is so cautious, the cook is also at ease to cook." ”

The girl smiled and sat down.

The maid brought the cake, and she shared a plate with Chang Xian'er.

When she finished eating, Chang Xian'er smiled and said, "Look at me patronizing and eating, I'm here to add makeup to Sister Qianran, but I'm not here to eat and drink." ”

As she spoke, she turned around, and the maid gave the brocade box.

Mu Qianran took the brocade box and said with a smile, "Thank you for sending me makeup." ”

As she spoke, she was about to hand it over to the maid.

Chang Xian'er smiled, "Don't you open it to see if you like it?" ”

Ordinary people give gifts, they will not open it in person, they are all people go and then look at it, but the makeup is slightly special, it comes with blessings, and it is not rude to look at it in person.

Mu Qianran nodded her head, she opened the brocade box, and inside the brocade box was a string of jade beads, and the jasper was transparent.

Mu Qianran was a little embarrassed, "You gave me such a valuable gift, how could I be embarrassed to accept it?" ”

Chang Xian'er smiled, "What are you embarrassed to be embarrassed about, what are you and I being polite to, besides, I don't dare to take a precious gift from me." ”

As she spoke, her eyes turned to Qingyun and said with a smile, "I heard that at yesterday's banquet, those rewards were all bought by Miss Mu San with her own money, a full 10,000 taels, she and you are cousins, and the relationship is good, plus you are married to the third young master of the Dingguo Mansion, and you have become a concubine with the aunt and grandmother of the Anding Hou Mansion, I am afraid that the things she gave you are more than ten times that of mine." ”

Qingyun is speechless, there is nothing wrong with her ears, when will she have a good relationship with Mu Qianran?

She's really good at making it a mouthful.

It's just that she said so, and it would be a shame if the gift she gave was not as good as hers.

Mu Qianran sat there, and she looked at Qingyun twice.

To be honest, she has been wondering recently, she is about to marry into the Dingguo Mansion, the eldest young master suffered a stroke hemiplegia and is sick in bed, Mu Qingling is destined to be helpless for the rest of her life, she is her cousin, Ming'er is her concubine, and I haven't seen her come to give her makeup, the Hou Mansion is still showing off her power in front of the Shangshu Mansion, so I'm not afraid that she won't give Qingling's cousin a good look in the future?

She decided to take a good look at the makeup given by Qingyun, and the makeup she sent determined her attitude towards Mu Qingling in the future.

Qingyun thought that Chang Xian'er just wanted to see that the makeup was not brilliant and embarrassed in public, but she didn't care, the amount of the golden hairpin was enough, and the weight she gave herself did not mean that everyone had to compare with her.

It's just that she said this, and everyone is looking forward to seeing the golden hairpin sent by Qingyun.

Qingyun took the brocade box from Qingying's hand and gave it to Mu Qianran.

Mu Qianran opened it and saw that it was a golden hairpin, and his face suddenly became a little disappointed.

It's just that everyone is here to send makeup, even if it's just to send a wooden hairpin, she has to thank her, she suspects that the courtesy is light in front of people, it's too rude, as long as you keep it in mind, you can have contacts and contacts.

Looking at the golden hairpin, Chang Xian'er's eyes flashed, she was thinking that the hairpin in Qingyun's hand that day seemed to be a little different from this one.

It seems to be, and it doesn't seem to be.

Seeing that Chang Xian'er was about to put away the golden hairpin, she smiled and said, "That day, when Miss Mu San chose makeup for you, I was also in Jinmantang, and the little girl in Jinmantang said that she picked a hairpin with a hole in the sky, I was very curious and wanted to buy one, but the maid shouted that I didn't buy it when I left, how can a hairpin have a hole?" ”

She asked curiously.

As soon as he finished asking, Mu Qianran threw away the golden hairpin in his hand.

Her face was so red that it could drip blood.

Qingyun looked at the golden hairpin on the ground, her brows furrowed.

She raised her eyes, but she inadvertently saw the expressions on the faces of several ladies, some curious, some wondering, and some blushing.

Blushing, apparently knowing what's different.

She stood up, picked up the golden hairpin, wiped it clean with a handkerchief and said, "The golden hairpin bought from Jin Mantang is delicate and beautiful, and it was only out of Jin Mantang, the maid didn't notice it for a while, and it was stolen by someone, this golden hairpin was given to me by my grandmother, I haven't worn it yet, I don't know what it means to have a cave, and my cousin is very disgusted with a cave?" ”

Qingyun asked, Mu Qianran was almost about to jump to her feet, "Don't say it, I'm ashamed!" ”

She stood up, picked up the golden hairpin, wiped it clean with a handkerchief and said, "The golden hairpin bought from Jin Mantang is delicate and beautiful, and it was only out of Jin Mantang, the maid didn't notice it for a while, and it was stolen by someone, this golden hairpin was given to me by my grandmother, I haven't worn it yet, I don't know what it means to have a cave, and my cousin is very disgusted with a cave?" ”

Qingyun asked, Mu Qianran was almost about to jump to her feet, "Don't say it, I'm ashamed!" ”
