Old Madam Yun squinted her eyes and looked at the two maids carefully, then pointed at Bai Suyan and said, "I seem to have seen you at the Empress Dowager Jinyue." ”

Bai Suyan was taken aback, she had visited the Empress Dowager Jinyue with her mother when she was a child, and she had a relationship with Mrs. Yun there.

Mu Guiyi said with a smile: "Grandmother has a really good memory, this is the youngest daughter of Xia Shi and Mama Xia." ”

"Oh, Xia Yatou's family," Mrs. Yun pointed at Bai Suyan and said, "I said, it looks familiar, this Xia girl and Dong Yatou were only fifteen or sixteen years old when they married your grandmother, and in the blink of an eye, the little daughter is so old, come, come, come!" ”

Bai Suyan raised her head slightly and looked at Mu Guiyi, and when she saw her nodding, she touched Li Pin and stepped forward to salute, "Slave Yanyan, I've seen the old lady." ”

Mu Guiyi opened a narrow gift box with his own hands, took out a folding fan, a good red sandalwood fan, the aroma is not rich, but the most primitive fresh smell of the trees, the most peculiar thing is that when they are close together, it looks about a blessing word, and it is a crane picture.

Mrs. Yun is old, she can't smell too heavy fragrance, and she is tired of seeing all kinds of gold, silver, pearls and jade, this ingenious sandalwood fan is what she likes, she opens and closes it in her hand, opens and closes, and lets people take it to the lady present to reward it again.

After this circle, the others also looked forward to their gifts, and when they arrived at the Lan family, Mu Guiyi picked up a box and opened it, and respectfully handed it to her, but it was a stone that was not good-looking.

"This ...... Isn't this the marble on the side of the road? Zhou, who was on the side, blurted out subconsciously.

Lan Shi took it in his hand, rubbed it carefully along the lines, stood up solemnly and went to the window to carefully examine the color and gaps of the stone against the light, and his face also showed a look of surprise, and he couldn't put it down against the stone.

Su Shiqi said: "What is this, look at the sister-in-law." ”

Lan Shi carefully held the stone and came back: "This is not a marble, it is a rough stone, in other words, you have to take it to a special jewelry store to cut it open, so that you can see the jade and jade inside." ”

Lan's background is contradictory, the family has been in business for generations, but she has grown up in the fragrance of books since she was a child, with the elegance of a literati and the shrewdness of a businessman, and the gift of elegance and vulgarity such as the original stone is exactly what she likes.

Zhou suddenly said on the side, "I see, no wonder it is often said that jade, jade." ”

Su Shi stroked the jade ring on his slender finger and smiled: "I didn't know that this thing turned out to be so ugly, but how can you tell if the jade here is good or bad?" ”

Lan carefully put the original stone back into the box, and instructed his subordinates to collect it before he replied: "This thing, I only heard my uncle talk about it, I remember that he mentioned a mantra, not afraid of big cracks and small locks, and would rather not gamble on locks." ”

Min, who has been quiet and silent, also quipped: "I'm afraid it's an itch in the big search, and I want to play cards again." ”

Lan Shi glanced at her, and said angrily: "I think it's your own skills, what's the matter, you want to win back the dozen or so silver you lost to me last time?" ”

Hearing them talk to each other for a round, Su Shi turned his head and asked, "Yaohua, what good things have you prepared for your second cousin, if it's not good, your second cousin will take back my bracelet!" ”

"Tut-tut, the older you get, the more you love to worry about juniors," Mrs. Yun said happily, "Don't be afraid, the old ancestor is here!" ”

Mu Guiyi lowered his eyes, his face seemed to show a little shyness, "The gift is simple, I'm afraid it won't be able to enter the eyes of my second cousin." ”

Su Shi said: "You haven't shown it to me yet, how do you know that I don't like it?" ”

Mu Guiyi invited quietly, but it was a small diamond-shaped three-color glaze box, unbuttoned, the grease inside was red at first glance, and orange-red when you looked closely, Su felt novel, and immediately took some and wiped it on the back of his hand, in the slightly brighter place is some lively orange red, and in the slightly darker part is the dignified vermilion.

"This color is amazing!" Su Shi is a delicate woman who likes to dress up, and collecting all kinds of rouge lip leaves is also her habit, some of them on the market are red, vermilion, purple, pink, pink and even dark red She has them on the makeup table, but it is the first time she has seen this, and it is so wonderful.

Mu Guiyi said implicitly: "It's good if my second cousin likes it, this is made by Yaohua herself, and it can't be compared to the hands of a special person." ”

"It's made by Yaohua himself, this ingenuity," Compared to gold and silver jewelry, this small box of grease cream is more liked by Su Shi, and he immediately plucked a butterfly hairpin from his head and stuffed it in Mu Guiyi's hand, "Just this hand-made mind, the second cousin and aunt are very happy, much better than any mundane things!" ”

Lan and Zhou looked at each other and smiled, "Then we are all laymen." ”

Mu Guiyi then presented Zhou with a pair of Lantian warm jade ruby-encrusted bracelets, while Min presented a pair of jadeite and gold bracelets.

"By the way, there is a sachet here, which I sewed for Sister Yaochi." Mu Guiyi took out a lake of blue embroidery bags from his sleeve pocket, embroidered silver cinnamon with white thread and silver thread, and embroidered a cluster of golden cinnamon with light red and gold thread.

Yun Yaochi took it with both hands with a look of surprise, Fang Zheng sniffed the tip of his nose, but it was the smell of peony, and looked at Mu Guiyi a little strangely, and she had already returned to Mrs. Yun to talk.

A room full of people chatted happily again, and before they knew it, it was evening, and Mrs. Yun also came back, Mu Guiyi paid a visit as a matter of course, and offered a gift, and also got a rich return gift, a set of gold and jade heads.

was supposed to leave like this, Mrs. Yun left her for dinner again, so she saw Mrs. Yun through the screen, several cousins, cousins, etc., and then if it wasn't for Mu Guiyi's insistence, Mrs. Yun still wanted her to stay for one night.

Taking advantage of Yun Yaochi's coming out, Mu Guiyi took out a green satin embroidered narcissus sachet and asked her to hand it over to Miss Yun Si, but the workmanship materials were a little better than Yun Yaochi's.

Yun Yaochi took it in his hand, the expression on his face changed, he didn't know whether he was happy or angry, Mu Guiyi explained: "Although Miss Yun Si's identity is embarrassing, but the first time I came to visit as a guest, I can't forget her share, otherwise I won't be able to count the courtesy." ”

Yun Yaochi stuffed the sachet into the hidden pocket of the cuff, smiled and shook his head, "I know, you don't have to be too nervous, Yun Si is just a concubine, whether she marries in the future or her rank, she is not as good as me, so why should I bother with her." ”

Mu Guiyi also smiled, and the two talked about the next time they met, and the carriage also rushed to the door after a while, and the two said goodbye, watching her step on the embroidery pier and get into the car, Yun Yaochi went in and ordered someone to close the door of the mansion.

At this time, the sky is gradually darkening, except for a few stalls on the road that want to make a little money at the end, the rest of the stalls have closed their stalls early and gone home, and the street seems deserted.

As he drove past a pastry stall, Mu Guiyi suddenly said, "Wait." ”

The driver subconsciously stopped and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?" ”

Mu Guiyi lifted the curtain of the car with one hand, and with the other hand, he was holding a fan and half-hiding his face, revealing a pair of beautiful pictures and looking out, "Sure enough, it's a seller of steamed cakes, Yanyan, you go buy some for me." ”

Bai Suyan didn't react yet, and said quietly: "Miss, this roadside is not clean." ”

Mu Guiyi put down the curtain and shook the fan, "It's okay, as the saying goes, if you don't dry it, you won't get sick if you eat it." ”

Bai Suyan took the money, slid off the carriage and trotted to the stall, the boss saw the business coming to the door, and asked with a smile: "Girl, what do you want, there are jujube mud cakes, brown sugar cakes, as long as you say it, they are all there!" ”

Bai Suyan said: "What about the cloud cake? ”

"Okay-" the boss stretched out, "one white sugar cake, one brown sugar cake, and one jujube mud cake—" The subordinate quickly wrapped the steamed cake in oiled paper and handed it to her.

As soon as he handed it over, he passed the note with the news in it, and returned to the car with the steamed cake, Bai Suyan watched Mu Guiyi take a piece of white sugar cake and take a bite and put it aside, no longer touching it, but quietly smelling the fragrance, his mouth was full of words, and his throat moved frequently.

Seriously, Bai Suyan was a little afraid of such a smoothness, in such a smoothness, Mu Guiyi always pushed the boat intentionally or unintentionally, as if she knew everything.

Is this Mu Guiyi still the Mu Guiyi she used to know?

Back in the house, unexpectedly Mu Jiahua actually sat in the front hall and waited, but Mu Guiyi didn't seem to see it, and went straight to the backyard.

"Stop!" Mu Jiahua slapped the table, and the cups on the table jumped up, "This is your etiquette, this is how Mr. Weekdays teaches you the rules?" ”

Mu Guiyi snorted coldly, and the momentum that came to his face when he turned around was like a peak snow peak, and the cold and pure saint was also unattainable, and it was really shocking to see it in this girl who was not yet in her prime.

"I don't care, I don't know if you can stand my father!"

"You!"

Mu Guiyi's pretty face was cool, "Yaohua knows what you are thinking, I only want to say one thing here, if something happens to either mother and grandmother, I can make your more than ten years of hard work go down the drain!" ”

Mu Jiahua glared, "You dare!" ”

"Mu Jiahua," Mu Guiyi slowly paced in front of him, his voice soft, "Do you think I dare?" She said it in a big way, but she took it for granted.

"Tomorrow I will take over the power of this stewardship, not to ask you to agree, just to tell you!" After speaking, Mu Guiyi threw up his sleeves and left.

Jing Jing was still stunned by the sudden dispute, Bai Suyan pulled her and hurriedly followed Mu Guiyi, she always felt that Mu Guiyi had something to say, I was afraid that she had inadvertently known something, about herself!

Mu Guiyi didn't know his own courtyard, but went to Lin Lao Taijun's Nanshan Courtyard first, the backyard of Mu Mansion was the same as before, lifeless, except for a few masters who hung lanterns at the door of the courtyard, and didn't even meet a sweeping servant woman on the road.

And today seems to be destined to happen, I heard the commotion in Nanshan Courtyard from afar, surrounded by many people, Mu Guiyi frowned, and said angrily: "What's the chaos? When all the masters in this house are dead, will they be able to do it? ”

The courtyard that had been messed up was quiet, and the surrounding subordinates hurriedly separated a road for Mu Guiyi, and occasionally a few red-eyed maids let out a few sobs.

Mu Guiyi was afraid that something had happened to Mrs. Lin, so she didn't care about her demeanor, so she directly picked up her skirt and trotted into the main room, Bai Suyan, who was following behind, also felt bad, and followed behind her, but unfortunately she was stopped by the two big maids beside Lao Taijun at the door.

Jingjing was quite happy to go out today, but after coming back, the successive events scared her enough, and at this time, looking at the posture in front of her, she finally couldn't hold back, and cried quietly around Bai Suyan's arm.

Bai Suyan hugged her sideways, patted her shoulder gently, looked at the messy Nanshan Courtyard, her brows gradually raised, she didn't feel that Mrs. Lin was worried about her life, but she was afraid that it was the person behind her, in order to better control the Mu Mansion, she simply let Mrs. Lin be "sick" and unable to meddle in the affairs of the house.

After a stick of incense, Mu Guiyi came out with a straight face, followed by Mama Yue, she stood on the steps, and condescendingly swept around the people in the courtyard, "What about Xiao Yin?" ”
