Chapter 84: Taibai Lou (Sammy_ Shanshan Jiagen)
After listening to Fang Xin's words, Mu Hongshang was looking forward to it, her big eyes narrowed slightly, and she replied with a smile: "Really? That's great, I've never seen it. I don't go out much on weekdays, I don't have much knowledge, Sister Gu and Sister Xie won't laugh at me, right? ”
Fang Xin couldn't help but laugh when she heard Mu Hongsheng's words, she felt that this Miss Mu was really honest and cute, most of the nobles in the capital held their own identities, and rarely spoke like Miss Mu. It is said that Mrs. Mu of the Anguo Mansion is used to children, and it seems that what she said is true.
"Why," Fang Xin replied with a smile: "Our young lady likes you the most, you are willing to go out for a walk, she is too late to be happy, how can she laugh at you."
In the private room, Gu Yilan was sitting quietly by the window. She was born in early March, and now she has turned fifteen years old, and she no longer combs the little girl's double-ring bun, but carefully combs the hanging bun, wears a light blue Luo skirt, holds her cheek with one hand, and looks out the window, as beautiful as a painting.
As soon as Mu Hongshang came in, she saw Gu Yilan sitting by the window, and couldn't help but sigh: "Sister Gu is really good-looking."
Gu Yilan turned around and saw Mu Hongsheng coming in, and immediately laughed: "Sister Mu is also good-looking."
In Gu Yilan's opinion, Mu Hongshang is indeed very good-looking, she hasn't seen her for several months, and the little girl seems to have grown taller again, she is only less than thirteen years old, and she has already surpassed her.
Mu Hongshang was wearing a fine skirt with hibiscus makeup, a light primrose color, and a green piping belt. The skirt was still a few inches shorter than the average girl's, revealing gold-sprinkled trousers and embroidered shoes.
She had a neat double bun on her head, and the goose-yellow silk flowers inserted in the bun were made by Gu Yilan herself. Gu Yilan looked at the silk flower and smiled, Mu Hongshang was indeed suitable for such a bright color, her judgment was really right. The little girl with bright eyes wears such brightly colored silk flowers, and her face looks even more dazzling.
Gu Yilan glanced at Mu Hongsheng's waist again, and found that the style of her purse was very novel, and it seemed to be a cute big-eyed little animal, but it was not the cat-headed purse she had seen. Gu Yilan knew at a glance that this purse should also be given by Xie Shurou.
"Come and sit," Gu Yilan beckoned to Mu Hongsheng: "Come so early, have you had breakfast?"
"No," Mu Hongshang walked over quickly, sat at the table, and shook his head very generously: "My fourth brother said that the crystal buns in Taibai Lou are delicious, so I came out hungry on purpose."
"Fang Zhi," Gu Yilan smiled and turned her head and instructed the maid: "Go and ask the little second brother to serve a few signature snacks, there must be crystal buns."
Before the words fell, a laugh came from the door: "I heard that someone wants to eat crystal buns?"
"Sister Xie," Mu Hongsheng turned her head and smiled at the person at the door: "You're here!"
Xie Shurou walked in with a smile and sat down opposite Gu Yilan: "I thought I came early, but I didn't expect you all to arrive."
"It's hard to come out to play, of course early," Mu Hongshang replied with a smile, "I'm still worried about eating crystal buns."
"It seems that it is really wise for us to choose Taibai Lou to meet," Xie Shurou said with a smile: "Fortunately, I didn't book Kui Xinglou, otherwise Sister Mu wouldn't be able to eat crystal buns."
"I went to Kuixing Tower a few days ago," Mu Hongshang replied, "The mille-feuille crisp and osmanthus pine nut candy there are delicious." I think the crystal buns in Kuixing Building are also quite delicious, but my fourth brother said that Taibai Lou is better. They wouldn't bring me with them when they came to Taibai Building, so I had to try it. ”
"I see," Xie Shurou nodded: "Then what else does Sister Mu want to eat?" Say it together, today's sisters will be the east, so that you can eat enough. ”
"The fourth brother said that the crystal buns are delicious," Mu Hongsheng shook his head: "My sister knows, we have always rarely gone out, and my brother and they went to Taibai Mansion to see off the eldest brother two years ago."
Gu Yilan and Xie Shurou nodded together. Two years ago, the Mu family brothers went out to see off Master Mu, and it seems that Mu Hongsheng went to Kuixing Tower with his brothers a few days ago to see off Master Mu and Third Young Master Mu.
Sending her brothers away from home to the north was obviously not a pleasant topic for Mu Hongsheng. Gu Yilan and Xie Shurou had a very tacit understanding and didn't ask anything, and they didn't want Mu Hongshang to think of what made her unhappy.
The crystal buns were served, everyone was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was relaxed and lively, Gu Yilan and Xie Shurou thought that Mu Hongsheng's attention had been diverted, and they were about to propose to go to the lake after breakfast, but at this time, Mu Hongshang took the initiative to open her mouth.
"Sister Xie, Sister Gu, I actually have something I want to ask you." The expression on Mu Hongshang's little face was very serious: "My sisters are so smart, they can do many novel things, I am very stupid, I can't." As you know, my brother set off for the north, and I actually wanted to make something for them myself, but my mother and my aunt had already prepared a lot of luggage for them, and I didn't know what to send, so I only gave them saddle buckles and bow and arrow bags, and asked Master to buy them for me, and it was nothing special."
Mu Hongshang lowered her head and touched her nose, looking very embarrassed: "Every time my brothers come back from the north, they don't forget to bring me a lot of gifts. I also wanted to do something for my brother, but the gifts I could come up with were always ordinary, so"
Gu Yilan Bingxue was smart, and immediately understood what Mu Hongshang meant: "My sister wants to prepare a gift for your brother by herself?"
"Yes!" Mu Hongshang nodded: "I thought, it would be best if I could bring some gifts to my brothers next time I sent a letter to the border at home." But I can't think of anything I can do. ”
Modern people Xie Shurou have seen many things that are not available in this era, so before Mu Hongshang finished speaking, Xie Shurou's brain had already turned away. Mu Hongsheng's brothers are all military generals, and she doesn't know about practical items for military generals.
Xie Shurou really hasn't seen how the ancient generals worked and lived, and her impressions of the ancient military career all came from TV series.
However, as a modern person, of course, you have to be more knowledgeable. There are also military personnel in modern society, don't they? Although Xie Shurou doesn't know soldiers, she has always watched TV series, and even if she doesn't know the details, it doesn't hinder her.
Xie Shurou was desperately using her brain, but Gu Yilan was obviously a little confused. Although she is ingenious and has an excellent female popularity, she was born in the family of Wenchen, even if she married in her previous life, she also lived in the backyard of the palace, surrounded by scribes who could not be picked on her shoulders and could not be lifted by her hands, and she really couldn't think of a gift that was too special and suitable for military generals.
