039: Torsion
Xuan Shi glanced at Yan Jin, and his face darkened.
She always felt that this child's temperament had changed greatly since he heard the rain platform fall down.
In the past, Yan Jin liked to be spoiled by her and depended on her.
But now, Yan Jin still treats her as before, but her smile seems to be a little more alienated.
Xuan Shi thought, rubbing the strength of Jinpa, and it became a little stronger.
"Tea for you, too?" Old Lady Yan's gaze moved to Yan Jin, and the smile on her lips cooled deeper, "Do you know what kind of tea it is?" ”
Yan Jin shook his head honestly and said helplessly, "I don't know, I can't see it." ”
She really doesn't know what the difference is between good tea and bad tea, in Yan Jin's eyes, tea is only bitter and non-bitter. As for the taste, she really couldn't tell if the tea was good or bad.
So in her previous life, Yan Qining had no intention of saying that Yan Jin was a person who would not be happy.
Yan Jin thinks that some people like to drink tea, some people like to play games, everyone's favorite things are different, why should she learn from others, just be herself.
In fact, in the past, Mrs. Yan was also a person who couldn't taste tea.
It was only later that Mrs. Yan became Mrs. Hou and needed to often participate in various banquets held by the noble ladies in Beijing. Mrs. Yan was afraid of losing face, so she forced herself to start learning to taste tea, intending to hide the Yan family's poverty.
"However, the tea should all be stored in the warehouse." Yan Jin frowned, and thought for a while before saying, "It's always been from my mother." ”
Yan Jin mentioned the three words to his mother, and he couldn't help but make Xuan's look at her again.
Xiang's mother has indeed been serving Yan Jin's side in the past, but now everyone in Yan's mansion knows that Xiang's mother was killed by Yan's second master's cane, and now when it comes to Xiang's mother, isn't this death without proof?
So, Xuan couldn't help but ask Yan Jin, "The Lushan Yunwu tea sent by Master Yu must be a high-grade tea." Why don't you take it out and taste it? ”
"Didn't the second aunt always know this?" Yan Jin pursed his lips, with a hint of helplessness in his words, "As long as it's not bitter tea, I like it." ”
Xuan's face was vaguely unhappy, "You can't taste what kind of tea it is, how do you know that the tea sent by Master Yu is not Gu Zhu's purple bamboo shoots?" ”
Yan Jin winked at Xuan's family, still familiar and said, "Second aunt, I didn't say that the tea sent by my grandfather was not Gu Zhu's purple bamboo shoots, I just wanted to tell my grandmother that my grandfather also sent me tea." The lady in the capital didn't know that my grandmother was a master of tea appreciation, and the quality of tea naturally couldn't escape my grandmother's eyes, so how could I dare to deceive my grandmother. ”
Yan Jin's words obviously pleased Mrs. Yan.
But because of this sentence, Xuan's face turned red with anger.
If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Yan was here, she would have wanted to open Yan Jin's head and see what was in Yan Jin's head.
Yan Jin saw Xuan Shi looking at her with inquiring eyes, and he was a little angry. She turned her head, pretended not to see it, and continued to say to Mrs. Yan, "Grandmother, A-Ning and I have always been by the side of the second aunt, and we know that the second aunt is filial and knowledgeable. What my grandmother didn't like, Ah Ning and I naturally wouldn't put in front of my grandmother's eyes. ”
The mother-in-law in the outer courtyard of the Yan family all knew that the tea that Mrs. Yan didn't like the most was Gu Zhu's purple bamboo shoots. And how did Xuanshi not know?
When Yan Jin and Yan Qining left the East Courtyard, they were still young.
So over the years, it has been Xuan's teaching the two children.
If Yan Qining and Yan Jin didn't know Mrs. Yan's preferences, then it would be a dereliction of duty on the part of the Xuan family.
"Second aunt, it's very good to us." Yan Qining saw that Xuan's face was as white as paper, so she hurriedly argued, "We have always been taught to be filial, so my granddaughter will let people send tea to grandmother to taste." ”
Old Lady Yan glanced at Xuan's before asking Yan Jin softly, "You said, Master Yu also sent tea to the Yutang Pavilion, in the warehouse?" ”
"Back to my grandmother's words, that's right." Yan Jin nodded, stood up from his chair, and blessed himself, "Although the warehouse is a little messy, it is not difficult to find this batch of tea." ”
No matter how much she says, it's better to let Mrs. Yan see the real thing.
Yan Qining raised her head and looked at Yan Jin, as if she didn't understand why Yan Jin said these words.
Yan Jin saw Yan Qining's eyes and returned a faint smile.
She understood what Yan Qining was wondering about.
In the past, she couldn't help but hate the Xiao Yu family, and even more so the people of the Yu family. Even if he was forced by his father to go to the Yu family, he would not give the people of the Yu family a good face. Her brother-in-law and grandfather, every time they saw her, would pretend to have a headache, and helplessly shake their heads and say that she was a little white-eyed wolf.
They said that, but they treated her well.
What Yan Qining has, she will also have.
Yan Jin was instilled by the Xuan clan at the beginning, and the Yu family's silver had dirty thoughts. So every time the Yu family sends something over, she won't ask for it, and when she's in a bad mood, she will throw it out.
She always thought that these things had been returned to the Yu family, and even Yan Qining thought so.
But in her previous life, when she was about to get married, she overheard that she was drunk and drunk and laughed with her mother and a few mothers-in-law, saying that Yan Jin had lost the things sent by the Yu family in the past, but they were actually in the warehouse. Xiang Mother was short of money, so she sold these things.
Because it was something sent by the Yu family, Yan Jin didn't care about it at all.
In fact, Xiao Yu's family and Old Lady Yu are very similar in this regard.
They will never treat their children badly, no matter how cruel and willful this child is.
"Mother Zhu, you take someone to the treasury of the Jade Hall Pavilion to look for it." Old Mrs. Yan seemed to want to get to the bottom of it, so she asked Mother Zhu beside her to go to the Yutang Pavilion.
On weekdays, Mrs. Yan always turns a blind eye to the things in the house. However, this time the incident was obviously aimed at her, how could she not be angry.
The maid brought Mrs. Yan a cup of tea into the house again, and brought some snacks in.
Old Lady Yan kept staring at Yan Qining, and after a while, she looked at Xuan Shi again.
In less than half an hour, Zhu's mother came back from the Yutang Pavilion, still carrying a few delicate pear blossom wooden boxes in her hands.
"Back to the old lady, the old slave counted the booklet in the warehouse, and the old slave had already taken the tea in the warehouse." Mother Zhu put the pear blossom wooden box on the small kang table, and returned to her original seat to stand.
Xuan Shi glanced at Zhu's mother, and her tone was a little uneven, "These are full of tea?" ”
Mother Zhu nodded, "Back to the second wife, the old slave has seen it, it's all." ”
"Open it and let me see." Xuan said as he stood up.
Mother Zhu shrank her head when she heard this, a little at a loss.
Although she is not as long as Mama Xun who has served by Mrs. Yan's side, she is the person next to Mrs. Yan after all, how can she obey the orders of the Xuan family.
The green tendons on Mrs. Yan's forehead jumped, and she patted the kang table that was put aside angrily, and said softly, "In the future, you will simply take care of all the things in this mansion?" ”
When Xuan Shi heard this, his face turned pale with fright, "Mother...... I, I didn't mean that, I was just worried that you would be deceived. ”
"Deceitful?" Old Lady Yan was suddenly furious, and raised her voice at Xuan, "I'm not old yet, and my eyes are not blind. ”
Xuan quickly stood up and knelt in front of Old Lady Yan, "Mother, you are angry." ”
After Xuan finished speaking, he finally couldn't help but redden, and covered his eyes with the brocade in his hand.
She has been in the Xuan family since she was a child, and she grew up in the palm of her mother's hand, and if she wants anything, the people of the Xuan family will follow her. But since marrying into Yanfu, what kind of life she has lived.
This person who is covered in the smell of copper is actually more favored than her.
Mrs. Yan took a deep breath and instructed Mother Zhu, "Open the box." ”
Mother Zhu hurriedly stepped forward and opened the pear blossom wooden box, and was greeted by the fresh fragrance of tea.
Zhu's mother didn't understand tea, but she was still attracted by this fragrance.
The Yu family, as rumored, eats and wears the most top-notch things.
Although Mrs. Yan was well-informed, she was still shocked by the scene in front of her.
Some of the tea leaves in these boxes are royal tribute tea, and it doesn't matter, even if you use a thousand taels of gold, you can't buy them.
But these precious teas were thrown away in the treasury by Yan Jin.
Waste...... It's a waste......
"You've never tasted these teas?" As if thinking of something, Mrs. Yan glanced at Yan Jin and asked, "You don't know what these tea leaves are?" ”
Yan Jin shook his head and showed a well-behaved smile, "My grandfather said that he just sent some tea leaves to my sister and me, and I don't know what kind of tea he will give." ”
Yan Jin looked at Mrs. Yan's look of pity, and said, "Grandmother, are these teas good?" Is there a Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoots? ”
Old Mrs. Yan looked at the box in front of her again, and among these precious teas, there was indeed no Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoots.
Moreover, the Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoots she tasted just now are not the best tea leaves in Gu Zhu's purple bamboo shoots.
Gu Zhu's purple bamboo shoots were divided into five classes in the Great Yan Dynasty, and the best batch was sent to the capital before the 'Qingming Dynasty' for urgent tea, which was used by the royal family to worship the temple.
Since the Yu family has the ability to get these teas, then the best Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoots are afraid that there is also a way to get them.
The old things of the Yu family are very partial to these two children, so they will never send defective Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoots to Yan Mansion.
She was angry just now and neglected this matter.
Mrs. Yan finally understood that someone wanted to use her as a pawn.
She was almost deceived.
"There are no Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoots, but these tea leaves are excellent things, you can keep them well." Old Mrs. Yan looked at the tea leaves in the box with some reluctance, "This is your grandfather's intention." ”
Yan Jin smiled and said to Mrs. Yan, "Since it is an excellent tea, if grandmother doesn't dislike it, take it." The granddaughter doesn't know how to taste tea, and it's just a cow chewing peonies, which is really a waste. ”
The old lady Yan who can coax is happy, and the Xiao Yu family will suffer less.
Sure enough, when Mrs. Yan heard Yan Jin's description, she finally couldn't help but smile.
Of course, she is even happier that these precious tea leaves can reach her hands.
Compared with Mrs. Yan's smile, Xiao Yu's face was iron-blue.
She couldn't believe the facts in front of her......
Yan Qining actually did such a terrible thing.
