Chapter 167: Grapes
When the old lady of Zhenguo heard about it, she was also stunned for a while before she smiled and said, "The daughter-in-law of Dalang is really blessed." β
At her age, her husband is stupid, her eldest son died early, her youngest son disappeared, and all the ups and downs have passed, and many of them have been seen very lightly.
Those who are blessed are better than anything else.
The old lady was satisfied with the result, that is, when she asked for peace the next day, Zhen Miao got two gold ingots as a reward.
This old lady is real.
Zhen Miao touched the gold ingots in her purse and smiled sweetly.
The eldest girl, Luo Zhiya, flashed disdain in her eyes.
When he arrived at Xinyuan, he told Tian about it as a joke.
Tian was a little uneasy when he heard this. The lord was right, she shouldn't have given up the housekeeper's position.
If the old lady is really satisfied with Zhen, maybe she will teach her well, and then let her take care of the house.
The more Tian thought about it, the more annoyed he became.
She is really confused, why did she give Zhen a chance!
No, she must take back this stewardship.
She has taken care of the Guogong Mansion for more than ten years, how much effort has she put into it, why should she give it to others!
"Mother, what's wrong with you, is there something uncomfortable?" Seeing that Tian's expression was wrong, Luo Zhiya asked.
"No, my mother thinks it's almost good."
This disease should be cured in two days.
Zhen Miao returned to Qingfeng Hall, and asked Zi Su to put away the two gold ingots.
Not long after, another housekeeper told me that she had brought roses and grapes in front of her.
Among the melons and fruits, Zhen Miao's favorite is this rose fragrant grape, and after listening to it, she was sent in, and when she saw it, there were two big baskets.
"So many, are they distributed to the courtyards?"
"Back to grandma, the grapes from each courtyard have been sent, and this is specially sent to Qingfeng Hall." The housekeeper said.
This housekeeper's mother-in-law's surname is Tang. I've been in charge of Seifudo.γ
The few maids she brought, Zi Su and Bai Shao occupied the position of first-class maids, Bai Ling and Ah Luan and Qingfeng Tang's original maids Yunliu and Yunyan were second-class.
The blue pigeon, the finches, the nightingale, and the pearl are of the third class.
Shiso, Bai Shao and Mama Tang are the people with heads and faces in this courtyard.
Zhen Miao felt that something was wrong.
Melons and fruits, the emphasis is on eating fresh, although the Guogong Mansion is rich, it will not buy so much every time, not to mention anything else, the melons and fruits that are distributed to Qingfeng Hall on weekdays are three or five plates.
"Ah Luan, wash a few bunches of grapes. Put it in a basket for me. β
After it was loaded, Zhen Miao motioned for the green pigeon to carry it and went to Yi'an Hall.
The old lady was playing leaf cards with a few big girls, and when she saw Zhen Miao coming in, she didn't put it down, and beckoned: "Daughter-in-law, come and see the cards for me." β
"Grandmother, this is playing the leaf card, and the granddaughter-in-law has seven tricks and six tricks. You asked me to see it, but I found the wrong person. Zhen Miao smiled and took the basket from Qingge's hand and put it on the table.
The purple and black grapes are one after another, squeezed tightly and crystal clear. There are also water droplets hanging on it, and it makes you want to eat it when you look at it.
The old lady smiled: "You kid, I also have grapes, why did you send them on purpose." β
Zhen Miao pursed her lips and smiled: "Grandmother is here." It's the share that the people have bought, and these are the filial piety of the granddaughter-in-law. β
The old lady glanced at the basket full of grapes and said angrily, "Then you can send the grapes for the portion." What do you eat yourself? β
"My granddaughter-in-law still has two big baskets there."
"Uh, two baskets?"
Zhen Miao nodded: "Yes." β
said hello to the old lady, whether it was sent by mistake or not, the two baskets of rose grapes were hers, and she was happy to think about it.
"Maybe I'm mistaken." The old lady's face was calm, but her heart was a little more thoughtful.
After changing the master and housekeeper, it is normal for the subordinates to have their own little abacus, and whether they can smooth out the subordinates is also an important skill of the housekeeper.
But if you frame the master, you can't be forgiven.
"Then the granddaughter-in-law will send the grapes back." Zhen Miao showed a painful expression.
The old lady smiled: "Since you sent it over, you can keep it and eat it." β
"Thank you, grandmother." Zhen Miao showed a big smile.
After the two baskets of grapes crossed the Ming Road, Zhen Miao finally relieved herself, said goodbye and returned to Qingfeng Hall, beckoning the maids to eat grapes together.
Seeing that there were too many grapes, and they couldn't be stored for a long time on such a hot day, Zhen Miao thought for a while and said, "Finch, call all the sinking fish and goose shy flowers to eat grapes." β
Que'er looked unwilling: "Grandma, why do you give them food." β
Hmph, they have a room, and they want to rob the world with the girl.
Bah, what is their identity, why should they rob the girl!
"It's too wasteful not to eat things that are broken, so let's go."
The sparrows in the deserted courtyard of Naxi are not falling, and the finches stood at the door and shouted: "Sinking fish, falling geese, shy flowers, come out quickly, grandma called you overββ"
Ahem, something doesn't seem right.
The finch thought weirdly.
After a period of chaos, three beautiful women ran out, and everyone was a little excited.
Since the eldest grandmother entered the door, even their invitations have been waived, not to mention the prince, even the grandmother's face can't be seen.
Qiyue was kicked out because of the roast pig, which made them dare not act rashly, and they were about to get moldy in the house all day long.
"Miss Finch, what is the grandmother calling us?" Luo Yan asked worriedly.
"Tell you to eat the grapes." After speaking, the finch turned her head and walked forward.
So the three of them were even more worried.
When I entered the main courtyard gate, I found that there were many wooden tables and rattan chairs under the acacia tree, and Zhen Miao led a group of maids and women to sit there eating grapes, and laughter came from time to time.
The three of them looked at each other.
It turns out that this eating grapes is really eating grapes.
"Say hello to grandma." The three of them saluted in unison.
"You guys are here, sit down at will, don't be restrained." Zhen Miao smiled and pointed to the small pestle that was placed randomly.
The three of them hesitated.
Zhen Miao pursed her lips: "If you don't feel comfortable, just take it back to your room and eat?" β
As soon as the words fell, the three Tongfang sat down quickly.
Zhen Miao was embarrassed, threw a grape into her mouth, and narrowed her eyes into a crooked crescent.
It seems that she underestimated the determination of these three to see Shizi.
Butβ
Hmph, I don't look at what time this is, the prince is still in the yamen.
I won't show it to them!
"It's so lively." A low-alcohol voice came.
The corners of Zhen Miao's mouth stiffened, and when she looked up, she saw Luo Tianhuo standing at the moon gate. Dressed in bamboo blue, he was looking at the courtyard with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looked more and more handsome in the sun.
Zhen Miao didn't reply for the first time, but quickly glanced at the three rooms.
Sure enough, the excited hands of the three Tongfang trembled, and they stood up suddenly, looking at Luo Tianhuo with affection and wanting to speak.
A few maids glanced at Zhen Miao complainingly.
Girl, you're just luring the wolf into the room.
Luo Tianhuo walked over.
When he arrived, he didn't wait for the three of them to salute, but he frowned and asked, "Why are you here?" β
The faces of the three Tongfang changed. There was disappointment in his eyes.
Shen Yu said sadly: "Lord Shizi, it was the eldest grandmother who asked us to come over and eat grapes." β
"Finished eating?"
"Yet, not yet, just eaten." Luo Yan interjected, looking at the past tenderly.
Luo Tianhuo's face was expressionless: "Uh, one plate for each person, take it back to the room and eat it." β
The three of them were about to cry, and one of them walked away with a plate of grapes in one step.
The corners of Luo Tianhui's mouth rose. Walked over.
Seeing this, the maids were busy.
"Why did the prince come back at this time?"
"If you have free today, I'll come back early, where are so many grapes?"
Zhen Miao took a bunch of grapes and handed it to Luo Tianhui: "I sent it wrong." Taste, it's sweet. β
The two of them sat together under the acacia tree, chatting casually while eating grapes.
A hesitant voice sounded: "Big brother, sister-in-law-"
Zhen Miao raised her eyes and looked. Seeing Luo Zhiya, who was wearing a light yellow Luo skirt, standing at the door, she wiped her hands and stood up: "Why did my sister come over." β
Luo Zhiya walked in and saluted, and her eyes swept away. His complexion changed: "Sister-in-law, you have a lot of grapes here." β
"What's going on?" Luo Tianhuo frowned.
In his previous life, he loved this sister very much, but now, seeing through the shamelessness of that couple, he really can't give birth to brotherhood.
Luo Zhiya's eyes turned red: "Big brother, I think you have changed, since you married your sister-in-law." β
Luo Tianhui's tone was even colder: "Yuan Niang, you are not young anymore, if you say this, it will make people laugh!" β
"Big brother-" Luo Zhiya looked at Luo Tianhuo aggrievedly.
Zhen Miao coughed: "Yuan Niang, I want to interject and ask, what is the matter with you coming over?" β
It's not like she's robbing a man, is it?
Luo Zhiya regained her composure: "I originally told my sister-in-law that I wanted to go out of the house to Tianxiu Pavilion to pick embroidery threads. However, now I want to ask, sister-in-law, why are there so many grapes here? β
"I sent it."
"Hehe, big brother, do you know, just now, Gorou and Rokuro were fighting because of grape grapes. But sister-in-law, the maid with a lot of grapes can't eat it. Could it be that the sister-in-law is in charge of the house, and this distribution has also changed? When my mother was in charge of the house, I never watched people put down dishes like this! β
Zhen Miao nodded seriously: "The eldest girl is right, there really is no such thing when the second aunt is in charge." β
When Luo Zhiya heard this, she felt that something was wrong, and seeing Zhen Miaoman's indifferent appearance, she stomped her feet and said angrily: "Okay, since the eldest brother and sister-in-law think it's nothing, then I'll ask my grandmother what the truth is." β
Luo Zhiya turned around and left, Zhen Miao sat down and picked up the grapes and ate them.
Luo Tianhuo raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Zhen Si, don't care about those irlevant. β
As long as he made it clear that he cared about Zhen Si, he didn't believe that his grandmother would blame her for two baskets of grapes.
"I don't care, two baskets of grapes, how big it is, the eldest girl wants to go to my grandmother and say that I eat too much, but my grandmother already knows." Zhen Miao expertly spit out a grape skin.
The sun shines through the dense leaves of the acacia tree on her face, illuminating her face as if it is transparent jade, and her lips are particularly bright because of eating grapes.
Luo Tianhuo couldn't help but stretch out his fingers, wiped the grape juice from the corner of her mouth, and muttered, "You can really eat it." β
Zhen Miao glanced at him: "The person who can eat eight big buns in one meal says I can eat it?" Hey, do you still want grapes? β
Luo Tianhuo smiled: "Yes." (To be continued......)
