Chapter 223: Visiting the Garden
She was still thinking about it, when Xingzi and Ling'er came to her, and asked strangely, "Sister Xiaoyu, what are you looking at?" ”
Lin Yu came back to his senses and smiled lightly: "It's nothing, just a little curious, this banquet seems to have only invited us"
"Indeed, could it be that there is really only one master in this country's mansion, Han Gongzi?" Apricot looked into the hall and wondered.
The three of them and several maids were standing outside the door talking, Yan Gu and Qi'er all came over, Qi'er shouted, "Sister, let's go in" and then entered the hall with Xingzi and Ling'er surrounded by Lin Yu.
There is only one table in the hall, so naturally there will be no separate tables for men and women, although Lin Yu blames Yan Gu for not understanding etiquette, but fortunately, there is no one else, so he endures it.
Yan Gu sat in the first place, and the maids with the food plate quickly bent down and stood in front of the table, and the two mothers-in-law were also blessed, so they hurriedly stepped forward and lifted the lid on the food plate, and brought out the dishes one by one and put them on the table.
Lin Yu smiled secretly in his heart, in the TV series, I saw a big family sitting at the table, and the people who were serving next to him were some young maids, this Yan Gu is good, it is the maid who serves the dishes and does the rough work, but the two mothers-in-law are served.
After the food plates in the hands of the maidservants were empty, they walked out one by one, and the two mothers-in-law helped a few people to pour vegetables and wine on the side.
Yan Gu twisted up his chopsticks and said to the two mothers-in-law: "You two go down quickly, you don't need to serve here."
When the two mothers-in-law heard this, they quickly put down the chopsticks in their hands, took a few steps back, bent down and bowed, and retreated.
Yan Gu said to the three maids of Lin Yu and Xingzi Ling'er: "A few of you also go down and find the two mothers-in-law just now to take you to dinner."
Wait until there is no one else in the hall. Yan Gu then stuffed a mouthful of food into his mouth regardless of his image, and said to Lin Yu angrily: "I know that you are ashamed of me in your heart, and you feel that you still need so many people to serve you for a meal" and chewed the contents of his mouth. Then he said: "However, you can't laugh at me, because this is all arranged by my father, although he rarely comes back once, but his self-esteem is troublesome, and he thinks that even if the family has a small population, there should be no less pomp and circumstance."
The people waiting at the table left. Lin Yu and Xingzi Ling'er relaxed a lot at once, and after listening to Yan Gu's words, Lin Yu glanced at him: "What am I laughing at you for?" Isn't it normal for you big families to have a lot of rules? ”
Yan Gu smiled at her: "It's good if you don't laugh at me."
The forest fish entered the house. His anger disappeared a lot, and just now he went into Lin Yu's bathroom from the backyard of Guichun Courtyard, and after peeking at her bathing, he knew that she cared most about fame. So he pinched her again. He couldn't have been happier.
There were no bystanders, and there were no elders, so several people regained their temperament when they were in Huaikou Town, and they laughed again and again at a meal.
When the chopsticks were finally put aside, Yan Gu ordered someone to collect the dining table and serve tea, Lin Yu thought about going back to the house to rest, who knew that Yan Gu was in a good mood. So he let them go around the house, and said through the garden. There is a big lake in front of it, just to go for a walk.
Lin Yu didn't want to go, but he couldn't bear the curiosity of Apricot and Ling'er, so he followed Yan Gu to the garden.
It was already a little dark, so Hikoku lit lanterns along the road and walked forward in the night.
Lin'an City can be regarded as an inch of land and an inch of gold, but the Guogong Mansion is surprisingly big, and the new emperor must value General Han very much.
With the lantern lighting, there is a special flavor in the garden of the Guogong Mansion, at a glance, the rockery oblique shadow, the plum calls the spring, a few people pacing slowly, talking and laughing and going to the front, I don't know how many corridors have passed, the front is finally empty, it was originally an artificial lake, the lake has an area of dozens of acres, now it is winter, the wind in the lake is blowing, but it is a few people's cheeks frozen red.
Yan Gu smiled and said to a few people: "How is it, is this not like the fish pond at home in Huaikou Town?" ”
Apricot laughed out loud: "Master Han, how can the fish pond in our Huaikou Town be compared to the lake in your Guogong Mansion, this area is so large, why don't we see anything similar?" It's such a cold day, you brought us here to let us blow the cold wind, right? ”
"Isn't it different? How do I feel the same? There are a lot of fish in here, so let's have people pick up the fish tomorrow and grill the fish as before, how about it? Hikoku disagreed with Kyoko's words, and after glancing at the lake again, he suddenly remembered grilled fish.
"Okay, I'm in favor, Brother Yan Gu, let's grill the fish tomorrow!" When Qi'er heard this, she also remembered the incident of grilling fish when she was a child, and she clapped her hands as if she was a few years younger.
Apricot and Ling'er immediately expressed their strong interest.
"Tomorrow, we're going to visit Lord Zhao," Lin Yu said inopportunely.
"That's right, I'm going to go to Lord Zhao tomorrow" Qi'er's face collapsed suddenly, and she said to Yan Gu with a bitter face.
"What's so hard about that? If it doesn't work tomorrow, let's fish again the day after tomorrow, it's the same anyway, you all have to stay here for a few more days," Yan Gu said disapprerovingly.
Qi'er jumped up with a smile: "Then it's decided, let's grill the fish the day after tomorrow"
The wind by the lake is too strong, although there are pavilions, but they are also windy on all sides, Lin Yu is afraid that a few people will be blown by the wind and really catch a cold, so he hurriedly told everyone to go back quickly.
Walking back along the winding corridor path, although Yan Gu and Qi'er lived in the front yard, they didn't want to go back at this time, so they followed to Guichun Courtyard.
There is only one serious master in this country's mansion, although there is a front and back yard, but there is no difference to him, in the past, it was difficult for him to go to this backyard, but now that the three of Lin Yu are here, he feels that the front yard is not interesting.
Lin Yu was really a little tired, but Yan Gu and Qi'er followed hard, although she was not happy in her heart, but she was not good at words, after all, one was the master of this country's mansion, and the other was her own brother, the two of them were a little excited when they first saw them, and they didn't look at her face at all, Lin Yu had no choice but to follow them.
In the flower hall of the Guichun Courtyard, Mama Feng has always let people burn the floor heating, and as soon as she enters the house, it is as warm as spring, Qiu Su Dongmai and Xia Dao helped the three of Lin Yu take off their cloaks, and the two maids arranged by Yan Gu helped Yan Gu and Qi'er take off their cloaks, and the other one quickly came out with snacks, and then several other people hurriedly went to make fruit tea.
Speaking of which, there is no hostess in this mansion, but the subordinates do things in an orderly and orderly manner, and they are not messed up at all because they are young and no one cares about them. (To be continued......)
