Chapter 294: Tea Set
After a while, after the maids had re-served the food, Narcissus went into the next room to invite his master to dinner. Zhao Tian'er, who heard this, was slightly stunned, after all, she had always thought that Li Wenxuan had already eaten in the courtyard of one of the other three rooms. Having the opportunity to serve him alone, Narcissus naturally tried her best to fight for good performance, after all, in her heart, she desperately wanted to be upgraded to a first- or second-class senior maid.
Li Wenxuan, who finally had something to eat, returned to the living room. Sitting next to the round table, he moved his chopsticks with his right hand and ordered, "You go and call Zhao Han to me." Narcissus, who had no choice but to do so, felt that he wanted to make a deep impression in front of him, and I was afraid that there would be no chance for him to do so. After saying yes, she went straight out of the room and went to do something.
Zhao Tian'er, who did not continue to sit in another room to rest, still holding a sugar gourd in her right hand, also walked out and sat on Li Wenxuan's left side. Although she had already eaten it, the peony that came out with her still ordered a little maid to hurry up and get a pair of high-quality blue and white porcelain tableware, but she personally placed it in front of the hostess. Zhao Tian'er, who changed the rock sugar gourd in his right hand to his left hand, picked up the chopsticks with his free right hand, and personally put his favorite dishes into Li Wenxuan's bowl.
About a quarter of an hour later, it was not easy to find Zhao Han's narcissus, and after him, he appeared in the living room of the main house. Standing five steps away from the front of the dining table, he lowered his hand and said, "I don't know if the master called the little one, but what are the orders?" ”
In front of Zhao Tian'er, Li Wenxuan, who did not shy away from it, said bluntly: "This weather is really cold." You will send a hundred taels of silver to the Chu family, so that they can prepare more clothes and bedding for the winter. ”
After listening to his orders, Zhao Han didn't know if it was because he had eaten a few more glasses of wine tonight, or because his mind was not clear for a while. Suddenly, he asked, "I don't know if the Chu family in the master's mouth is the Chu family?" After finishing speaking, he immediately reacted again, and then raised his right hand and slapped the right side of his face loudly.
"Zheng Renji's cousin's Chu family." Li Wenxuan, who had no intention of carrying Zhao Tian'er behind his back, saw the meaning of his move, but he did not blame and blame him for doing things badly.
Zhao Tian'er, who heard what was going on, deduced that the Chu family's economic situation was not good. Otherwise, his man would not have asked Zhao Han to personally send a hundred taels of silver over, intending to make their family live well. For this reason, she, who seemed quite generous, said with the icing on the cake: "Peony, you go to my house and bring the gray squirrel coat that was just made today and has not yet had time to put on the upper body to Zhao Er's housekeeper." A little bit of my heart, so that he can send it to the girl of the Chu family. ”
In response to a peony with the word "yes", the emotions in my heart were quite complicated. She used to be the concubine of Li Wenxuan, but she was snubbed by Zhao Tianer for a long time. If she hadn't realized the crisis. And immediately took the opportunity to quickly take back the foot that had been taken away, so that he regained the trust and reuse of the master mother. Although this matter did not work out in the end, it left an extremely deep imprint in Peony's heart.
I have weighed the pros and cons and risks better than anyone else. If she dares to commit a second attempt, the result of failure will be that she will no longer have the same chance as she does now. She had already planned for the worst, and she expected her final fate, I am afraid that it would be better than not getting close to the Li Mansion and staying at Renyazi. After all, this act is a betrayal of the housemother by eating inside and out. It is very likely that he will be sold into prostitution. Of course, no one is to blame. It's all self-inflicted and deserved.
At the same time, Zhao Han, who had to make it difficult, knew that the Chu family had two daughters, and Zhao Tianer just let herself bring a coat made of gray squirrel skin. Should this be given to my sister or to my sister? Thinking that he was wrong once, he might as well play a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water and said: "Big lady." I don't know which of the two sisters of the Chu family is planning to let the little one bring to you? ”
Suddenly, Zhao Tian'er, who wanted to find out what kind of mind Li Wenxuan was, actually didn't care about taking out an extra gray squirrel coat and said, "This one thing, you have to ask the master how to arrange it?" ”
Li Wenxuan, who didn't feel anything unsightly, behaved uprightly: "Today, I saw that my sister Chu Hanlu's clothes were a little thinner. Then you can send it to her. At this time, Zhao Han completely understood what the two masters meant, so after waiting for the brand-new gray squirrel coat that Peony handed over to him, he slowly retreated out of the house to do things.
"Peony, go and bring me my tea set made of purple sand." Zhao Tian'er put down the uneaten rock sugar gourd in her left hand, and arranged for the peony to do things again meaningfully.
The peony that responded for a while, and went again without saying a word. And Li Wenxuan, who heard her words, couldn't help but wonder a little. I haven't even finished my meal, so what do I do when I go to get a tea set? Could it be that Zhao Tianer still wants to perform kung fu tea in front of herself to cheer up? Li Wenxuan, who didn't ask her directly, patiently looked at what Mingtang she was going to do?
Peony, who hadn't been there for long, returned with a set of high-grade purple sand tea sets in the tray in both hands. raised her hand to signal her to come to Zhao Tian'er, who was nearby, and euphemistically expressed her attitude to Li Wenxuan: "Brother Wenxuan, look at this set of regular tea sets, but a pot is only equipped with four teacups. In this way, no more, no less, just right. ”
What a smart Li Wenxuan, he reacted as soon as he heard her words. He put down the chopsticks in his hand, took one of Zhao Tianer's hands, and said with a smile: "The lady is right." But a husband is not a teapot, and you are not a teacup. I saw that the girl of the Chu family was pitiful, so I just wanted to take care of it. ”
Zhao Tian'er, who couldn't help but laugh at him with this high-sounding excuse, stared at him and blinked his eyes twice and said, "I know Brother Wenxuan, you are the most kind-hearted man." Presumably, this girl from the Chu family should also be a beauty, right! ”
Li Wenxuan, who pointed at her with his left index finger, pretended to be a decent man and gentleman and said, "Look at what you said, it seems that being a husband is so vulgar." For this reason, Zhao Tianer, who laughed and did not speak, only let out a "giggle" laugh. (To be continued......)
