Chapter 46: Prayers
When Cui Wanqing heard this, she blurted out: "The Hu family is now the master of my cousin, and the young lady of their family, we will inevitably have to deal with each other in the future." β
"Let's just talk about these words in private, don't follow the crowd."
"In my opinion, a master like Mr. Suizhi, his granddaughter must be not bad, instead of listening to rumors, why not wait for the real meeting to make comments?"
Ah Tao's face turned red when she heard this, and she quickly nodded and agreed: "Good miss, all the gossip I hear will only be said to you alone." β
"Others don't talk nonsense, don't think that Ah Tao is a big mouth."
Cui Wanqing smiled helplessly, thinking that when she was reborn, she would have such an arrangement for Ah Tao, all because the foundation of Ah Tao's family was very deep in the Cui family.
Whether it is a person from the East Mansion or the West Mansion, she is very familiar with it, and it is convenient to listen to the news, Rao is later gained a firm foothold in the Cui family, and Ah Tao's extra errand has never stopped.
This child will always tell her the news of the inquiry as soon as possible.
Now that everyone has arrived in Jiangzhou together, Ah Tao is actually the same as everyone else, her eyes are black, and she is in a state of not knowing anything.
But Xu has been doing this kind of thing for a long time, and this habit of inquiring about everything has gradually become a habit of Ah Tao.
She still loves to inquire about things so much, but now she can only run to the door of the hanging flowers, and listen to the familiar uncles and uncles in the front yard, tell them the interesting things they heard when they go out.
Fortunately, she is not very old and has a sweet mouth. The hand is quite generous, in this short period of time, many long-term followers in the outer courtyard who are doing errands outside the courtyard love to come to the hanging flower door to sit for a while.
This is just a gossip, by the way to rest, there is free tea to drink, from time to time, you can also get dozens of dollars to drink and eat, who doesn't want such a good thing?
So because of Ah Tao's relationship, Cui Wanqing is in this heavy courtyard. A young lady who hasn't been out yet. I know a little bit about everything.
Thinking of this, Cui Wanqing wanted to tell her a few words more and more, lest this girl cause a big disaster in the future, and there was already a brother Li who took the first step. She never wanted to see anyone around her again. Something went wrong.
She looked at Ah Taoyan, who was a little nervous, and said, "You." Don't say it wrong, I'll let you spend more time with Fang's mother recently. β
"But it's better for you to pull Mother Yun on your errand. You seized the opportunity to run to the hanging flower door, yes or no? β
Ah Tao was told the central matter, and she didn't dare to look at Cui Wanqing, she lowered her head wiltedly, pouted, and nodded slowly.
Cui Wanqing sighed: "It's necessary to find out the news, but you can't go into it with all your heart, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out in the future,"
Hearing this, Ah Tao raised her head suddenly, looking at Cui Wanqing's eyes, with crystal tears, she said anxiously: "Good miss, I will never do it again, I promise, don't worry." β
"The servant will definitely grasp the measure in the future."
Cui Wanqing nodded lightly: "Okay, it's just a reminder for you, what kind of golden beans are dropped, people will see it in a while, and I think I bullied you." β
With tears in her eyes, Ah Tao couldn't help laughing again.
Yingqiao, who was nervous, finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this, and quickly changed her topic.
She sighed with confusion, "Yo, it's a coincidence, this young lady of the Hu family is the same as the ranking of our young lady." β
"Fortunately, this one surnamed Hu and the other surnamed Cui, otherwise, they would be called confused."
Cui Wanqing covered her lips and smiled, she knew that this was Yingqiao's cleverness, and when she saw that she was annoyed just now, she deliberately used this thing to make her happy.
In fact, even if the two families have the same surname and the same ranking, there are still countless ways to distinguish them, and these people outside are all proficient, so they don't have to worry about these little things at all.
However, because of Yingqiao's joke, which is not a joke, the atmosphere in the room has finally recovered a little.
At this moment, the voice of Shi's mother came from the staircase on the second floor, "Yo, what kind of happy thing is this?" Walking in the yard, I heard laughter, and it was Ah Tao, the Nizi, who had the loudest voice. β
Mother Shi's figure, with these words, soon arrived in front of everyone.
She is a few years older than Fang's mother, and she is the person who has served in front of the old lady, she is gentle on the outside, rigorous on the inside, and she is also dressed as an old man.
But when she arrived in Jiangnan, Shi's mother was influenced by everyone around her, and she began to make small changes in her makeup.
For example, today, she did not wear a dark gown, but chose a azure blue one, and the neckline was embroidered with a yellow moire.
There is no old-fashioned silver hairpin on the head, but a hairpin with a jade carved orchid, and even the ear pendant has been replaced from a drop of oil in plain silver to a jade ruyi ring.
Coupled with that energetic and cheerful smile, he looked five or six years younger than when he was in the capital.
Cui Wanqing felt that her change was quite good, and the smile on her lips couldn't help but deepen a lot, it seemed that there was no old lady Cui and Mrs. Cui on the top of her head, and everyone's mood was much lighter.
Mother Shi didn't come back empty-handed, she was holding a light blue lotus flower with dark pattern in her hand, and the two little maids who followed behind her were also holding one in each hand, which was not a small cloud brocade embroidered flower box.
The colors of the two boxes are bright and bright, take a closer look, the left hand side is embroidered with March peach blossom red, the right hand side is embroidered with September chrysanthemum yellow, the wiring is bright, the embroidery is lively and smart, and it has the characteristics of the needle in the south.
"Miss Jiu, it's a coincidence today, just now the two of us were talking about the neighbor's house next door, but when the slave maid was talking to Cui Jian in the outer courtyard, the housekeeper next door and the mother were all complete."
"The housekeeper has Cui Shan and they are greeting, and the slave maid brought the mother over there, you see, this is a prayer, and people are waiting in the ear room at the door of our yard."
"Would you like to meet? Or did the slave take a few red seals and go down to send people away? β
"Let's take a look first, don't rush." Cui Wanqing raised her hand to take the post first, but saw that the dark lines on the post were hand-pressed, with an elegant lotus fragrance.
The handwriting on it is decent, and it is not shameful to not be embarrassed, and the words written are the faΓ§ade words of common visits, but there is no name at the end, and I don't know if I forgot it in a hurry, or is there something hidden?
She turned her face and glanced at the contents of the brocade box again, and on one side were four ingots of honeysuckle, which were plum orchids and bamboo chrysanthemums, and the four ends of the gift were four elegantly colored rulers.
On the other side are four packs of yellow paper, the bags are boxy, very neat objects, Cui Wanqing vaguely smelled the fragrance of flowers, so she pointed curiously.
Someone stepped forward and quickly untied the fine hemp rope tied on it, and it turned out to be four packets of fine flower tea, namely jasmine tea, rose tea, chrysanthemum tea and lotus tea.
The original faint floral fragrance, as soon as it is opened, is even haunting all over the room, and it smells very good. (To be continued......)
