Chapter 308: Coming to the Door (4)
August 15, Mid-Autumn Festival.
I can't tell when the habit has been continued, the people in Yongzhou have always been no more than 15 to 16, and the 16th day is the main day of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The food to be used for the festival is prepared early in advance.
Gao's mother knew that Zhenxuan liked moon cakes, so she made the crust embryo herself without using human hands.
"Grandma eats moon cakes, paying attention to puff pastry, layer after layer, and the filling has no special preference." While preparing, Gao's mother smiled and said to Bang Mo, "Girl, go and ask the preferences of the ancestors and old ladies in the family, and see what stuffing we make this year." ”
Bang Mo answered and walked out of the small kitchen.
Walking through the verandah to the main house, Bang Mo glanced at Zhihua and Musk Yue.
Zhihua leaned against her own door, and Musk Yue stood in front of her, smiling and saying something, but Zhihua was absent-minded, pinching the tips of his fingers to play.
Bang Mo smiled and called out to them.
Musk Yue seemed to be startled when she heard the voice, and when she saw that it was Bangmo, she lowered her head and called "sister".
The painting smiled and said, "What? Going to grandma's? ”
"yes." Bang Mo responded casually.
Zhen Xuan was in the east room, with a chessboard in front of him, and playing chess with himself was also a kind of fun to pass the time.
Bang Mo said what he meant.
Zhen Xuan listened and said, "The second master likes white sesame pepper and salt; The third lady likes sweetness, and the filling of crystal fruits should be liked; The rest are also made some, the shrimp of ham, the taste is more, and it is also greasy. ”
Write them down one by one.
Zhen Xuan thought about it again. He Bangmo said: "I went to find a chess or a painting." ”
Bang Mo has never seen a chess player today. Thinking about the painting, it is in the west wing. So he went out to find her.
Musk Moon was still standing outside the door.
Bang Mo didn't come closer, but only waved at the painting from a distance, and when he saw her looking over, he pointed in the direction of the house.
He took care of the painting, straightened his clothes and sideburns, closed the door with his back and was about to leave.
What Musk Yue wanted to say had not yet been done, so she refused to retreat like this, and saw that the painting was over. She was shocked, and she didn't care whether she should say it or not, she grabbed the sleeve of the painting, and hurriedly said: "Good sister, if this thing is done, I will listen to my sister everything." In the future, I will follow my sister, my sister will go east when she points to the east, and my sister will go west when she says west, and it will definitely not hinder my sister's way. ”
Zhihua was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Musk Yue to show his loyalty at this moment. It's just that this loyalty falls on the ears, and it is really ridiculously tight.
Pulled the sleeve out of Musk Yue's hand. Zhihua sneered: "What? Stunned by the sun? Do you want me to reward you with two bayberry burns? What is my path? Gee...... It's as if you don't have to listen to me now, just do what you have to do. But remember, I'm a first-class, and you're a second-class, I tell you to do things, what can you do? ”
After that, he didn't care about Musk Yue's reaction, and walked straight to Bang Mo's side.
Musk Yue was so blunt and humiliated by Zhihua, her face turned red, she stared at the back of Zhihua viciously, and pulled her palms tightly.
Moma Aya will be on the sedan chair in more than ten days, and as soon as she leaves, the seat of the big girl in the house will be vacant. Since I got engaged to Momoya, although no one has hung up on it, who is not staring at the quota of that big girl?
can become the big girl by Zhen Xuan's side, even if she can't climb to the sky and be a serious master like Tao Aya, but there is still hope for finding a relatively better future, besides, the big girl's monthly rules and rewards are originally incomparable to the second-class.
There were originally four second-class people in Tianyi Courtyard, and Musk Yue felt that she had a good chance at first, after all, Xia Yiqing and Zhen Xuan brought her with them when they entered Beijing. But a few days ago, I listened to a few mothers-in-law chatting, who said that those who stayed in Yongzhou were not as good as those who went to the capital? Bangqin stayed in Yongzhou. Besides, maybe I'll bring in a competent one from another yard.
As soon as Musk Yue heard this, she lost confidence at the moment, and besides, there was also a Huai Xiang who went to the capital.
Huai Xiang has few words, but he can't allow Musk Yue to be underestimated. Huaixiang is a serious child, and her mother is still working as an errand in the courtyard, compared to Musk Yue's roots in the Xia family.
After thinking about it, she wanted a help. It is really not easy to win over the few that Zhen Xuan brought from the Pei family, and it is not easy to play chess, and the family is safe, so they will not help her, only one of them will be in charge.
Zhihua is straight, he is a righteous person, if he can ask Zhihua to say a few words in Zhen Xuan's ear, then this matter will be much more stable.
So Musk Yue found Zhihua, and she talked for a long time, and Zhihua looked like she didn't listen to it at all, and even answered her like this after the end.
Musk Moon was really angry.
Musk Yue's expression can't be seen, but Bangmo can see it,
Bang Mo frowned, and whispered to Zhihua: "What did she say to you?" ”
Zhihua pursed his lips and snorted: "I didn't say anything, it's just an elm head, what she does." ”
Hearing what Zhihua said, Bang Mo didn't want to ask much, and the two entered the main house together.
Zhen Xuan saw that the painting was coming, and mentioned the matter of moon cakes: "In addition to the ones in each house, Mother Gao should also make more, and our yard will also share a point, and the picture will be lively." What kind of stuffing do you want to eat, I told Gao's mother about it. ”
"Grandma remembers that the slaves are already a grace." Holding the blessed body, he said with a smile, "The slave maid will go to find Mother Gao in a while, and talk to her about the preferences of the Immortal Residence and Tingfeng Yuan and Zhonghe Courtyard." ”
Zhen Xuan nodded, and everything was handled by the painting.
The moon cakes were done, and Zhen Xuan asked Xing Aya to send some back to Pei's house.
Xing Aya went for a long time, and as soon as she came back, she came in to talk back, with a beaming face.
Zhen Xuan smiled and asked her, "Why are you so happy?" ”
"It's grandma who is happy." Xing Aya bent her eyes and said, "The slave sent moon cakes and said a few words with Lihe." Listening to what she meant, the first two rounds of the eleventh master seem to be good, and if you take another round, when the list is released, you will definitely be on the list. ”
Zhen Heng has a talent for studying, and he grasps his homework tightly, Zhen Xuan asked Master Pei to read his articles. Therefore, there is also a bottom in the heart.
It's just the road to this scientific expedition. There was no list for a day. Don't let up for a day.
Zhen Xuan bowed his head and said to Xing Aya: "Don't be in a hurry to ask for a reward, it's not too late to reward it when the list is released." ”
When Xingya heard this, she smiled and said yes.
When it came to the Mid-Autumn Festival, the courtyard was divided into silver, and if the family was in the house, let them go back for a meal, and if the family was outside, they would be given a leave the day before. Left for half a day.
A reunion banquet was held in the Changsheng House.
Mrs. He was very angry when she called Miss He last time, she was originally pretending to be sick, but this time she was really sick, and she didn't get better after taking medicine for a month.
Yang sat next to Zhen Xuan, even if he was covered with powder, he couldn't hide the tiredness on his face.
Zhen Xuan cared and asked a few words.
Yang smiled bitterly and said, "Grandmother is indispensable to be served. ”
"There are so many mothers-in-law and maids in the family, and my sister-in-law is not lazy......"
"What I'm most worried about is the marriage of the third uncle." Yang sighed.
Xia Suqing's marriage is a hot potato, Zhen Xuan knows this. The Yang family didn't know what to do, but the old lady He looked like she was in charge. The Chen family himself did not have a good candidate, which made the Yang family in a dilemma.
Zhen Xuan whispered to Yang: "What did Uncle say? ”
Yang shook his head: "He has his own affairs, family affairs, I can help him a little, why bother to worry about him." ”
Zhen Xuan didn't answer.
The way husband and wife get along is different from each other, and the matter between Xia Liqing and the Yang family, Zhen Xuan can't intervene and can't figure it out.
Yang didn't want to say more, so he just started anew: "Our cousin can be regarded as having arrived in Sushui City." The two female dart masters who sent her there also told her to toss enough. ”
Zhen Xuan smiled and shook his head, this can be understood just by thinking about it.
Yang held Quan Xiang on his lap and personally fed a few mouthfuls of crab roe, Quan Xiang liked it and wanted to eat it again, but was stopped by Yang.
"Crabs are cold, so you can't eat more." Yang persuaded him, took another piece of meat to Quan Xiang, turned his head and said to Zhen Xuan, "You can't eat these either." ”
Zhen Xuan smiled: "It's only a few more months." ”
Yang's eyes fell on Zhen Xuan's belly, and he saw that it was much older than last month: "It's about the first month, right?" Winter has the benefits of winter, and it is more comfortable to do confinement. Summer is sin. ”
Zhen Xuan thought of Zhou's, on a hot day, because of the confinement, there was very little ice in the house, and he couldn't touch the water, so it was uncomfortable to think about it.
Looking at it this way, this month is just right.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the day of Momoya is getting closer and closer.
The dowry was sent early, and the list was red in the eyes of many people, and the dowry was also prepared in the past few days, just waiting to be sent when stepping on the flower hall.
Zhen Xuan called Tao Aya, stretched out his hand and said to her, "Give me the key." ”
For so many years, the keys in Zhenxuan's house were all collected by Momo.
Hearing this, Momo's eyes turned red, she took out the key and looked at it, and reluctantly handed it over.
Zhen Xuan gave the key to Bangqin, and Bangqin opened the box in the cabinet at the end of the bed, which contained the house deed, the title deed, and the deed of sale of the maids in the house.
Bang Qin found the one of Tao Aya and handed it to Zhen Xuan.
Zhen Xuan looked at the deed, it had been so many years, the paper was yellowed and slightly wrinkled, and the red fingerprints printed on it were small.
At that time, Momoya was that big.
Zhen Xuan sniffed: "Burn it." ”
Momoya didn't take it, just looked at the fingerprint and was stunned, and she didn't even notice that the tears were falling down her face.
"Burn it." Zhen Xuan squeezed out a smile and urged her.
Tao Aya raised her eyes to look at Zhen Xuan, and took it with trembling hands.
The piano brought a basin, and the peach silk lit the fire fold, and the fire tongue lit the horn of the deed of sale, and burned it into a roll, and finally became the black ash in the basin.
Mom Aya stared at the black ash and cried bitterly.
It's not that she's finally freed from slavery, but she's reluctant, without the deed of sale, she is no longer Zhenxuan's maid.
Zhen Xuan couldn't hold back Tao Aya's tears, and was also sad: "Won't Fifth Master Qian come to kowtow to his grandmother during the New Year?" You can follow along, too. On weekdays, when it's convenient for you, hand me a post. (To be continued......)
