Li took Cai's and Zhang's to be busy in the pot house, chopping wood with stones and big eggs to make a fire, and with the help of Xuejiao, Xueru, Jinghao, and Xuewa, the meal was quickly ready.

A table was set up in the upper room, and Old Man Chen avoided it under the pretext that Mrs. Chen invited Mama to sit on the top, and Mama sat on it without refusing. Li and Cai's accompanied, but Mrs. Chen didn't let Zhang's serve the table, presumably thinking that Zhang's was dirty and her mouth was unguarded, so she scolded her for serving tea and pouring water and vegetables. The Zhao family was also nowhere to be seen, and was called by Old Man Chen to the West Wing to explain Xue Miao's affairs.

The meal was very rich, Mama moved the chopsticks slightly, picked up the vegetables in front of her and ate a little indiscriminately, and put down the chopsticks after half a bowl of rice.

Li took Cai and Zhang to remove the table, Mama drank a cup of tea, took a short rest, and suddenly stood up and said, "I'll go outside." ”

Everyone understood and thought that Mama was going to go to the thatched house. The houses in the countryside are not as good as those in the city, and the thatched houses are all outside, and they are covered with sheds. Because the Xue Jiao family was separated, they did not share a thatched house with the Chen family, but built a new one by themselves, which was cleaned every day, and in order to prevent the smell from coming out, the Li family also smoked wormwood in it.

Chen Xuejiao thought that this grandmother was also a decent person, and she must not be used to the open-air thatched house in the countryside, so she pointed to her own thatched house and said: "Mama goes there, it is extremely clean." ”

Mama nodded, smiled at Xuejiao, and entered Xuejiao's thatched house.

After a cup of tea, Mama came out. After cleaning his hands, he saw Chen Xuejiao standing at the door of the north wing, so he walked over and said, "Hello four girls." Can the big lady be in the house? ”

Chen Xuejiao was a little surprised, they didn't have a relationship with the Ding family, and they didn't know what this grandmother was looking for the Li family. Xue Jiao's first guess was that it was difficult for this grandmother to want to win over the Li family to deal with the second room together, and it was a well-known thing to compare the Chen family's big house and the second room.

Chen Xuejiao thought about it and said with a smile: "My mother is in the house." "If it's really as guessed, I'm afraid this grandma has made the wrong idea, whether it's the second room or Xueyao. It doesn't make any sense to the big house, they just want to hide far away, not take the initiative to attack. But if it's the idea of a two-room big house. Chen Xuejiao and they will not be as tolerant as usual, especially when so many things have happened, Zhao's face has made them feel that tolerance and generosity cannot solve the problem.

Saying this, Chen Xuejiao led Mama into the house.

Li was busy all afternoon. Tired backache. After a few quick bites of food, he sat down on the bed and took a nap.

"Mother, Mama is here!" Chen Xuejiao took the first step to open the curtain.

Li was startled, wondering how Mama had come to their house.

As soon as she sat up straight, Mama followed Xue Jiao in, and before she opened her mouth, Yingying gave a salute to the Li family, where had a country woman from the Li family seen such a big battle. In a hurry, Xuejiao helped Mama up.

I moved a chair to give up my seat, and there was a big difference between the north wing and the upper room. He refused to sit down.

"Mama, we don't have so many rules in the countryside, no matter how you say it, you are also an elder." Chen Xuejiao moved the chair behind her grandmother.

"That old slave might as well be respectful." Mama nodded, sat down, refused to fill the seat, and sat down next to the chair.

"Mama, please drink tea, I don't know if this tea is to your liking." Chen Xueru soaked a cup of the dragon well brought by Chen Xiucai before the rain to the south.

Mama took the tea, stroked the tea leaves with a chalid, blew away the foam on the water, and looked at Xue Ru and Xue Jiao sisters with a pair of shrewd eyes. Dafang's children are so decent and generous, compared with Aunt Chen and her sister who doesn't know the height of the sky, they are really one in the sky and one in the bottom.

"What is the matter with my mother?" Chen Xuejiao saw that Mama was secretly observing herself, straightened her back, and asked with a smile.

She didn't believe it, this grandmother came to their house just to ask for a cup of tea.

"Something's true." Mama didn't do Tai Chi either, and looked at Li happily, "I heard that Mrs. has an embroidery shop, which embroiders fairy portraits in a single door?" ”

The three of them glanced at each other, as long as they didn't mention Xue Yao's matter.

"It's not a big shop, it's in town." Li smiled and agreed.

Li's shop is not big, because of the single door to do fairy embroidery, many rich and noble people in Xuzhou Mansion come to the embroidery workshop to order Guanyin, Wenqu Xing, Medicine King and other portraits to worship, now, the shop's business has a certain popularity in Xuzhou Mansion, so it is not surprising that Mama knows that the Chen family has such a shop.

"I heard that my wife's shop is full of lonely and widowed people, and it is difficult for my wife to have a bodhisattva heart." Mama praised Li sincerely, took a sip of tea, raised her head and said, "There's nothing else, taking advantage of my visit this time, I want to invite a medicine prince back for our grandmother." ”

Grandma Dingfu is not in good health, this is not a secret in the Chen family, and it is understandable to ask a pair of medicine princes to worship.

"Our grandmother is not in good health, and she can't get out of bed most of the year. It was the eldest lady's idea to worship the medicine prince, saying that the Chen family's shop was the most effective embroidered by the medicine prince, and the old slave took this opportunity to ask his wife...... In fact, the eldest lady also knows that the immortal wisdom of the miracle will get sick but can't cure her life, but in order for the eldest grandmother to get better sooner, she is willing to try any method. "Mama's words are a bit heartfelt.

Last time, a big family surnamed Zheng in Xuzhou Mansion, the eldest young grandmother was sick and couldn't get up, so she invited the portrait of the medicine prince from the Chen family shop to go back, hung it on the wall and burned incense three times a day, burned for half a month, the eldest and youngest grandmother was able to get up, her appetite was better, and she was happy after raising it for half a year.

Therefore, the big families in Xuzhou Mansion have passed on from mouth to mouth, and they all say that the portrait of the Chen family is the most effective. Because of this, in the past six months, the business of Li's embroidery shop has been getting better and better.

As soon as she said this, Li and the others couldn't say anything.

"That's no problem, what size does Mama want, what silk thread, I let the embroidery workshop embroider it and send it to Xuzhou Mansion. It's just that Li Shi pondered for a while, "I don't know if Mama has time requirements, and now the embroidered statue is full, I'm afraid that the statue of this medicine prince will not be embroidered until the end of the year." ”

If the embroidery is rougher, it can be embroidered after the moon, but for a high-ranking family like Dingfu, the size must be large, the silk thread must be expensive, and the craftsmanship must be fine, so the time will be longer.

Mama smiled and saluted to the Li family: "The time is according to the arrangement in the wife's shop, and there is no problem at the end of the year." ”

"My niece can draw, please tell her the size."

Li asked Chen Xuejiao to bring Mama into the inner ear room, Jing Hao was splitting the line inside, and Mama informed Jing Hao of the requirements of the statue of the medicine king, and then went to Li's house to thank him, and sat down slightly and went out of the big room.

Zhao packed up the cage, and Xueyao's maid Lian'er told Mama to go to the North Wing.

"That old thing, I don't know what bad intentions I have." Zhao snorted fiercely.

"I heard that I asked for a statue of the medicine king for the eldest grandmother." Lian'er responded.

"Hmph, her body, even if she invited the Dragon King to eat the elixir, she couldn't cure her." Zhao Shi said sarcastically, and suddenly remembered one thing, "Yao'er is pregnant, how do grandmothers and sisters react?" ”

"What reaction can there be, the eldest grandmother can't give birth to the left and right, the eldest lady has always become kind, I heard that my aunt misses you, so she specially sent us to pick you up." Lian'er helped the Zhao family make up, picked up a royal blue jade hairpin from the jewelry box and pressed it on her head, with a touch of sarcasm on her face, "Everyone says that my aunt's baby looks like a young master, if it is really a young master, the thousands of family businesses in the mansion are young masters, and I want to come to the eldest lady to understand this meaning, so I rushed to tie up my aunt." ”

When Zhao heard this, his face was colorful, and when he thought about it, he thought that Sister Ai was not a kind of person, so he was afraid that she would hurt Xue Yao ruthlessly, and said worriedly: "She really has that kind heart?" I don't believe it. ”

Lian'er said: "Yes, my aunt is the same as you think." But she didn't dare to give birth to that harmful thought, there are still old ladies and uncles above, if she has a reputation for murdering her brother, how will she marry in the future. ”

Zhao nodded: "That's right." ”

After Zhao finished dressing up, he suddenly remembered Xue Miao, and called out to Lu'er who was standing aside: Where is the second girl? ”

Lu'er only rushed to help Zhao's pack up the cages, and Xuemiao's boxes and cages were all picked up by Cui'er, and when she heard this question, she turned around and went to the ear room to take a look, but she saw clothes and jewelry piled up on the bed, but the person was gone.
