Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Beginning (Part II)
Mrs. Tai didn't react for a while, and glanced at the little maid.
Xingzhao was drinking tea with a teacup, listening to the little girl's words, the teacup was crooked, and the warm tea was sprinkled on his hand. The heart turned a thousand times, the previous life Ying Yi came to the door, and there were the eldest lady, her, Xingxiao and Mrs. Tai in Rongshoutang. The second lady was sick and closed her door after the year because of Xingming's fork in Dingguo Temple. After Ying Yi met Mrs. Tai, he gave a gift and went back happily.
The eldest lady saw that the lady was stunned and didn't speak, and suppressed the doubts in her heart, no matter what the reason, it is not good to hang her there all the time when the guests come.
"Hurry up and invite the eldest princess to Rongshoutang!"
The little maid answered, then lifted her skirt and ran out.
The second lady rolled her eyes and smiled clearly: "It's a surprise." This master didn't even participate in the family banquet of the former Weiguo Gong's family, and now he still knows how to ask our family's New Year's Day, or our old lady's weight. ”
Mrs. Tai didn't say anything, glanced at the couch and didn't hear anything outside the window, lowered her head and did the needlework seriously, and was greatly relieved, the heart of a gentleman should be like a blue lotus pond, throw a stone down, and after a few ripples, it should be calm. Where can a person let an ignorant thing mess up his mind?
When Ying Yi got down, the eldest lady and the second lady were already waiting in the verandah with Xingzhao Xingming, and saw a red-makeup beauty wearing a golden magenta embroidered peacock open-screen gown, with a white face, a pair of red phoenix eyes raised high, pursed her mouth, holding the maid's hand, and holding her skirt slowly down, as if she was coming to the verandah step by step.
"He Fang's family brought the daughters of Lin'an Hou Mansion to greet the eldest princess of Yingyi." The eldest lady led the crowd to salute.
The corners of Ying Yi's mouth hooked, and he hugged the eldest lady, looking affectionate: "I haven't seen you for a few days, and Mrs. Lin'anhou is getting more and more rounded." Ying Yi wants to compensate the eldest lady, and the eldest lady poured a lot of wine that day. ”
The eldest lady had a gloomy face and waved her hand hurriedly: "I was greedy for the cup." He turned sideways and gave way: "Let's go to the back room!" It's cool enough outside. ”
One was talking, one was walking in the verandah, and after turning a corner, it was the main room of Rongshoutang.
Lifting the curtain and turning the screen, Mrs. Tai sat firmly on the eight immortal stools at the top, and when she saw Ying Yi holding the eldest lady in, she smiled before saying a word: "The old woman looked at the spring flowers on the case this morning, and burst out of a bud, and secretly said in her heart that it was a good omen, and she could have a good year." How do you want to get it on you first, and go to the door of Wang's house! ”
Ying Yi smiled, and approached Mrs. Tai's side in a few steps: "Where is the guest, I am the one you look at, and you directly regard Ying Yi as your own family." ”
Xingzhao's heart trembled when he heard this, and he remembered the words "entering the room" for no reason.
Mrs. Tai smiled and didn't answer, and ordered someone to add another basket of red snail carbon to come in, and re-serve tea and pastries, and said in a different voice: "Sit down, sit down!" Try the newly made green jade cake, our second master is a Dingjing Tong, a few days ago shouted from Anhui Ji Gaojin to invite a cook, said that making green jade cake is a must, I taste it is not bad. ”
The eldest princess of Yingyi sat on the top left, side by side with Mrs. Tai. The eldest lady sat on the upper left of the second seat, the second lady sat on the upper right of the second seat, and the following sat Xingming and Xingzhao one by one.
The second lady covered her mouth and smiled, with a proud look: "If you want to ask where the hairpin in the capital is good and where the stewed elbow is delicious, which of our second master doesn't know?" This green jade cake is made of glutinous rice with water, green plum blossoms and pearl powder that have been frosted, and then ground carefully with a white jade plate."
Before the second lady's words were finished, Ying Yi interrupted her with a light cough, as if there was only Mrs. Tai in her eyes, and said with a smile: "Can there be anything bad in your house?" A few days ago, my subordinate official got a green jade from the fiefdom. This is not unusual, what is rare is that the water head above is excellent, and a few points of water light invade it, and it looks like a crane dancing. As soon as it was opened, there was a whole piece of jade, the color of the water and sky, there were no black spots, only a few filaments of light in the middle of the jade, like a crane raising its wings.
Ying Yi raised his chin and smiled more sincerely: "Zhongning wants to exchange a small county of hers for it, I didn't give it, just wait to hold it to give you a New Year's gift." ”
The second lady's face was blue and white, and she was robbed white by Yingyi, and her face was a little unbearable. Looking at the object again, I couldn't help but gasp: "That He's Bi, I'm afraid there is only such a water color!" ”
Xingzhao lowered his head and drank tea, the tea that the He family entertained people was divided into three categories, the first class was Longjing before the rain, the second class was Yunnan Pu'er, and the third class was Tieguanyin. And today, when Ying Yi came, Mrs. Tai ordered people to serve Lu'an melon slices, which were sweet and warm, and after tasting it, it was comfortable to the heart and spleen, and I felt that the whole person was stable and calm.
Ying Yi listened to the words of the second lady, and finally looked at her, and said with a smile: "The second lady has seen He's Bi? ”
The second lady was robbed again, and she held her breath and never answered again.
"The eldest princess has a heart. The old woman thinks that it is not more than Erer compared with the previous one in this jade bi. Mrs. Tai happily relieved the siege of the second lady, and roughly understood the intention of the eldest princess of Yingyi, but she excused herself, "Jade raises people, and people raise jade." The old woman is afraid that she does not have the blessing to be able to afford this jadeite. Our Great Zhou Dynasty, probably only the head of the palace can have this blessing! ”
Ying Yi was in a hurry and blurted out: "Isn't Mrs. Tai too polite?" The subordinate officials quickly sent the horses and whips, and a few good horses were tired and killed halfway, just to give you a New Year's greeting before the year! ”
Xingzhao silently gave Ying Yi the word impatience in his heart. Proud, conceited, impatient, wanton, and self-serving, much like himself in his previous life.
Mrs. Tai shook her head with a smile, covered the box, and instructed the maid to take it: "What the Queen Mother doesn't have, the old woman dares to ask for it?" The box of this hundred children is very good, and the meaning is good, so it should be regarded as a congratulatory gift. ”
Ying Yi was stunned by the first sentence, opened his lips and snorted a few times, but he didn't say anything. She was originally here to please Mrs. Tai and pave the way for marrying into the He family in the future. plus He Yan was hesitant, only saying that she should wait, where could she wait, so she simply packed up her things and came to Mrs. Tai's way. I endured it for more than ten years by the side of that sick ghost, and it was easy to get rid of it, and it was written in the book that a lover would eventually become a family, how could there be so many ups and downs in her place!
Ying Yi was discouraged, which can be regarded as acquiescing to Mrs. Tai's reasoning, and he is in a hurry for quick success! hung her head and pouted, her eyes were aimed at the eldest lady who was out of the way, with a round face, a round waist, and a round wrist, what He Yan liked was obviously a woman like her with a graceful figure and a smart personality! Thinking of those few days of tryst, He Yan stroked her back, her neck, her eyes, eagerly and eagerly whispered, possessing her again and again, and couldn't help blushing.
"Over the years, the Weiguo Mansion and the Lin'an Hou Mansion are not close, Ying Yi has a close heart" Ying Yi twisted his body, looked at the eldest lady, Ying Ying said: "This Jiujing Hutong was specially rewarded by Emperor Taizu to the Lin'an Hou Mansion, and it is famous for the scenery of the blue wave lake, the nine-mile long pavilion, and the nine-turn verandah. Maybe the eldest lady is tired to lead Yingyi on a tour? ”
Xing Zhaoxin suddenly mentioned his throat, there was no such scene in his previous life!
Mrs. Tai was holding the tea cup, and when she heard the words, she put it down: "That's natural." The old woman should also accompany her, this is the principle of hospitality. ”
The eldest lady was shocked, but she didn't dare to let Mrs. Tai go out on such a snowy day, and said with apologies: "Mrs. Tai doesn't dare to go out like this!" Her old man's legs and feet are not good, and she has to freeze like this outside, and her knees hurt at night, and she is afraid that she will not be able to walk anywhere tomorrow. I hope the eldest princess will forgive me! ”
Xingzhao couldn't help crying and laughing, didn't Mrs. Tai take the initiative to accompany her, just to be wary of what Ying Yi said in front of the eldest lady, for fear of stimulating her. The eldest lady is good, so she pushed such a sincere, good-hearted, pure filial and soft person, how could she be so straightforward and like her.
Mrs. Tai obviously didn't know what to say, and her heart warmed for no reason, so she had to instruct again: "Then the second daughter-in-law should also accompany you." Two little girls also accompanied. It's not good to make the eldest princess of Yingyi feel sluggish. ”
